Bureaucracy usually represents inefficiency, but there are always exceptions. For example, when everyone's life and death are threatened, even bureaucracy is full of efficiency. For example, this time, from the base issuing a warning, to the president issuing an order, to
Team X sets off.
It only took a few minutes in total.
People will always be inert when their own interests are not endangered. After all, it is none of their business. But Titans don't care what humans think. They can't control it. Who can guarantee that Titans will not come to them?
Even the most confident New Yorkers would not naively believe that superheroes can ensure the safety of everyone. Once that thing comes to a city, even with the protection of superheroes, it will cause hundreds of thousands or even more casualties.
, and countless property losses.
So the efficiency this time is exceptionally high.
In fact, Team
…Yes, it’s SHIELD again, and it’s Nick Fury again.
Nick Fury's aesthetic is full of the nouveau riche atmosphere. What he pays for is exaggeration and practicality. It is never in his consideration. He just follows his own preferences and lets SHIELD's scientific research department give him what he wants.
For example, this S.H.I.E.L.D. Airbus.
The prototype is the American Boeing C-17 Globemaster III transport aircraft, but the bi-wing layout was changed by S.H.I.E.L.D. scientists into an improved tandem bi-wing layout, with a pair of wings added, two more engines mounted, and it was also changed to
Vertical take-off and landing type, this type of transport aircraft is equipped with a total of 6 turbojet engines, has vertical take-off and landing functions, has a large number of weapons and equipment for special agents, an interrogation room, and a laboratory.
Officially known as the CXD23 Airborne Mobile Command Station, it is also nicknamed 'BUS' by team members. Team
.This car is the home of SHIELD agents after they leave home, and it is also their important means of transportation. The cabin has a laboratory, an operations center, a cargo hold, and a private lounge.
In addition to the common features with the Boeing C-17, the most distinctive features of the BUS are a pair of rear engines and a semi-long wing located at the tail of the fuselage below the traditional elevated tail. This gives the BUS a higher speed and allows it to
Reach your destination in a short time.
In fact, this type of machine is completely nonsense, but SHIELD's science department was stunned to realize such a nonsense idea.
Highlight a ‘powerful flying brick’.
However, with the decline and liquidation of SHIELD, many technologies unique to SHIELD were also accepted by the government... The government was not at all happy about this, because before this, they knew almost nothing about this kind of thing
A glimmer of information... In other words, SHIELD during Nick Fury's time took money from the U.S. government to create many big toys for itself that looked high-tech, but were actually very practical, and those who paid for it
The U.S. government knows nothing about this... It makes me sad just thinking about it.
In short, with the guarantee of this super flying base that can complete global delivery capabilities, it only took them twenty minutes to fly to Black Rock Mountain.
I have to say that this technology still has something to offer.
"Okay, we have flown over Black Rock Mountain."
Church came to the airdrop exit below the plane and looked at the new X team under his command, still full of pride in his heart.
After all, these children have been trained by him for three years. During these three years, he not only helped them master their own abilities, but also trained them as agents and special operations forces, so that they could become qualified soldiers.
He believed that they would never let him down.
"I will not participate this time." The church stood at the airdrop exit and shouted loudly: "So I hope you can complete the task well!"
In the previous missions, the church had always led the team himself. But that was no longer possible. This mission was too dangerous, and his ability could not help them. He could only become a burden, and to be honest, the church was no longer suitable for field work.
He is already over sixty years old.
Although my body function is maintained well, no matter how good it is, I am already in my sixties.
If it were an ordinary enemy, he could use his experience and skills to challenge him, but the biggest problem now is actually not those mutants, but those crazy spiders!
"Don't worry, instructor. Just rest in peace and take care of yourself! Our world will follow!"
The little naughty kid was joking carelessly.
Little Naughty lost her father when she was very young. She was raised by her mother. Although she did not live a hard life due to her family environment, she still longed for her father's love, and the church filled this gap very well.
.
The church people are old and smart, and they can't deal with children like Little Naughty. He can see the problem of Little Naughty, so under his deliberate guidance, Little Naughty can be said to have got rid of the psychological shadow, and he is not like him at all.
Just like when I first came to Team
"Don't be careless! Remember the mission requirements carefully..." The church couldn't help but emphasize, but as he said it, he stopped talking. Although these people were still children in his eyes, they were actually quite old.
They are all adults.
There is no need for him to tell them what to do over and over again.
The church waved its hands, and everyone began to airdrop one after another.
Of course they couldn't use a parachute... After all, with their initial speed, if they used a parachute to descend, they really wouldn't know where they would land after jumping. After all, there was no conspicuous reference object.
So they use jetpacks.
It is still Chitauri technology. The Chitauri have extremely rich experience in airborne operations. When they invaded the earth, they did airborne operations. Their jetpacks are very small and very practical.
Except for the poor battery life, there is nothing wrong with it.
But you are doing airborne combat, which requires long battery life and does not require you to fly in the sky all the time. They have very smart air combat units (air motorcycles).
Watching the team members jumping like dumplings one by one, the church was filled with pride and worry at the same time.
"Don't worry, old guy, I will watch them!" John, the last airdropper, patted the church and shouted loudly.
John is the oldest among them, already in his forties.
Originally, I was a little hesitant about John joining Team X. After all, he is too old and he is a veteran, which will have a bad influence on these young people.
What's important is their plasticity.
After all, many of them don't actually feel very deeply about being discriminated against. They are so easy to fool... ah, they are easy to cultivate.
Those older mutants have long been beaten enough by the world, and they have very negative or even radical views on the government and even society as a whole. They will not trust the government, let alone do things for the government.
John is clearly such a person.
But the church stood up and advocated recruiting John.
Being young is a good thing, but it is also a bad thing. They need a true leader of the same kind. No matter how good the relationship between the church and them is, it cannot replace the status of the same kind. They need a guide. John seems to him to be very good, and he knows how to protect himself.
At the same time, he has experience and a bottom line. After leaving Stryker, he just lived in seclusion and never used his own abilities to make profits. From the church's point of view, these are all advantages. As for the disadvantages... there is nothing in this world.
The perfect thing?
"Watch them, John!" Church said seriously.
Although the wind was strong, John still 'heard' the words of the church.
He nodded and fell directly from the plane.
Looking at the empty cabin, Church still felt a little sad.
"Who would have thought that the cold-blooded church would show such an expression. It seems you are really old...Moses."
The church's real name is Frank Moses, but few people know his real name.
"Don't tell me, it's like I'm not a human being. If I am a human being, I will grow old... Speaking of which, what are you doing here? Qiao."
Joe Mason, a black agent. He has been retired for a long time because he is almost 80 years old. He used to be the boss of the church. He has been the liaison officer of the church for a long time, and the relationship between the two has also been...
Teachers and friends, when the church was hunted down, Joe was no exception. But Joe was lucky in that he was too old. If it weren't for his skin color, he should have retired as a senior CIA officer. (played by Morgan Freeman)
Role)
However, there are advantages to being older, and that is personal connections. Unlike being hunted in heaven and earth, Qiao knows many people, so even if he is hunted, he can still live happily.
"Hey... I'm old enough to have to work... I don't want to either."
Unlike the church, what Joe is best at doing in his life is not to go out in the field, but to hunt down defected CIA agents. He is an internal killer. Many of the insiders that the CIA needs to get rid of are all Joe's creations.
"Work...isn't it? And you...damn it, isn't it our people who have the problem?"
Despite his age, Qiao Yi has a kind face, but in fact, this old guy is famous for his evil intentions. Whenever he appears, any CIA will tremble. After all, he will never chat with you.
Yes, if he appears, it means you may die.
The church didn't care. After all, the relationship between Joe and him was very strong. Even if the CIA wanted to kill him, they wouldn't look for Joe... What's more, it's impossible for Joe to work for the CIA anymore. You know, the CIA even wanted him
kill.
"How else do you think that group of people entered the base?" Qiao said matter-of-factly.
"Who do you work for now?" Church asked curiously: "CIA? FBI? Or NSA?"
Don't talk about the CIA chasing Joe, Joe will no longer be able to work for the CIA... The relationship between this is very complicated. I can only say that in this absurd world, everything is possible.
"Higher up!" Joe said. "The White House."
"Huh?" In the American political system, the president has great and small powers. But it seems impossible to bypass all domestic intelligence agencies and directly assign an unrelated person to investigate such a thing.
The resistance will be very great.
After all, the power of the president is not unlimited, especially in the United States.
"The performance of the intelligence agencies this time made the president very unhappy and even uneasy. There are many intelligence agencies in the country, but they always make mistakes. If they are ordinary mistakes, the president may be able to tolerate them, but this time... you know
Yes, once that thing underground comes out, countless people will suffer. The president cannot tolerate this." Joe said: "Now several heads of intelligence agencies are being scolded, but the president can't help it anymore, he is afraid
There will be problems in other locations, so it's up to me to find out who is leaking information."
The president no longer trusts the intelligence agencies, which is a big problem. It might cause turmoil in the political arena. After all, a president who can be re-elected for multiple terms does not trust the intelligence agencies under his command... No one wants to see this kind of future. Who knows who the gang is.
How will people react?
"Then why did you come to me?"
Church shook his head and didn't think about those things. This problem was too big and not something he should consider.
"I need manpower. You don't think that I, an old man in his eighties, can really solve the problem single-handedly, do you?"
"No! Those children must not get involved!"
The church immediately refused. After all, the identities of those children were too special. If they were involved, they could be smeared and targeted at any time! It might even affect public opinion, causing the public opinion environment for mutants to deteriorate again.
"No, no, no, I don't want them. What can they do? Break into the CIA and kill all those people? What I need is you! Not your children." Joe said calmly: "You don't want to be like this either.
Retire, old man, I know you still have gas in the tank!"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The reason why Joe came out was recommended by an insider of the presidential staff. He was an old friend of Joe. He was a veteran member of Congress and had worked with Joe.
, but others have moved into politics, and he is still just a retired old agent.
Joe is old and has cancer. But he is still unwilling to die like this... In other words, his life has been too ups and downs, too exciting. But when he is here, he can only act like an ordinary old man.
A person who has nothing to do and is forgotten by others feels that more than half of his cancer is due to idleness!
He doesn't want this kind of life, he would rather die on the battlefield. In fact, the last time he was hunted down, he felt a rare excitement that he hadn't seen in a long time!
Only that kind of stimulation made him feel like he was still alive, instead of like a useless waste waiting to die!
So he agreed to the invitation.
"Are you serious? Isn't it good to live peacefully?"
The church is different. He longs for an ordinary life, and he even wants to fall in love... He has never really been in a serious relationship in his life. He has no children or relatives. He has dedicated his life to the country and retired in his later years.
He just wants to live his own personal life.
It's a pity that he can't do it. From the beginning of his counterattack against the CIA, it means that he will never be able to live the life he wants to live.
"Let me beg you!" Qiao said seriously.
The church looked at his old friend and finally agreed. Just like last time, he went to see Joe, hoping to get Joe's help, and Joe agreed without hesitation. He couldn't refuse.
This is also debt repayment.
"But not until my children come back!"
"Don't worry, we still have time!" Joe was very happy, and he even suggested: "Maybe we can also find our old friends... You know, they will not live their lives quietly!"
"What? Are you planning to set up an elderly activity center?"
The church curled his lips. He realized that his old friend actually wanted to enjoy the glorious days again.
"No! I want to tell them that the older the ginger, the spicier it becomes!"
