Chapter 248: Years are ruthless asking for a monthly ticket) 6500 words together
Human beings are forgetful creatures. Twenty years after World War I, World War II broke out on September 1, 1939. The outbreak of World War II made everyone once again experience the horror of war. This time, the United States also seized the opportunity to establish its own
World hegemony.
In the early days of the war, the Americans still followed the strategy they had at the beginning of World War I. That is, no matter how Europe fought, they would just sit on the Diaoyutai and collect money until their hands cramped. At the same time, they began to absorb a large amount of nutrients from the participating countries.
The introduction of various talents is also a top priority for the United States. Many German scientists came to the United States during this period. Among these scientists, in addition to the famous Einstein, there is another one who is not famous, but is very important.
Even Dr. Reinstein, the scientist who can be said to have changed the world, also came to the United States.
Dr. Reinstein, a native of Hanover, Germany, was originally a German chemist. He fled to the United States because he did not agree with the communist ideology and began to work for the U.S. government.
But these are just some revealed information. The true identity of Dr. Reinstein is even more twists and turns. His original name is Abraham Erskine! He originally worked for an organization that was more radical and terrorist than the Nazis - the Thule Society.
.
He and his partner Johann Schmidt have been helping the Thule Society research a very mysterious topic-the super soldier serum project.
This project was created during World War I and was developed under the leadership of Baron von Grossmann, the young leader of the Thule Society at the time. They extracted the flesh and blood tissue of a mysterious creature and planned to isolate substances from it that could promote human evolution.
Thereby fulfilling Thule Society’s ideal—sublimating into a god on earth!
But as the First World War came to an end, the Thule Society's strength declined greatly due to the defeat. Baron von Grossmann even died directly on the battlefield. In addition, the Thule Society began to be continuously attacked by a mysterious British agent organization.
As a result, the Thule Society could only go underground, and at the same time support the communist parties to achieve revival.
At that time, Erskine and his partner John Schmidt were sent by the Thule Society to work under Hitler, the leader of the Communist Party, to bring various scientific and technological support to Hitler. But it was also during this period that neither Erskine nor Schmidt
Concepts have fundamentally changed.
Erskine was not originally a formal member of the Thule Society. He was completely deceived into working for the Thule Society. He always thought that his research was for the future of mankind. But when he came to Hitler's command, he immediately understood
He had no idea what kind of organization the Thule Society was. He was also extremely disappointed with Hitler's revolution. He could not see anything worthy of praise in it.
** was just inciting hatred and violence everywhere under the banner of nationalism. Erskine could see that ** would only bring Germany into war in the end. So from that time on, he had the idea of leaving.
After that, he once again accidentally learned from Schmidt the true source of the so-called "Super Soldier Serum Project", and he was completely desperate. So he quickly defected to the United States.
And his partner Schmidt took a completely different path from him. If Erskine is a pure scientist, Schmidt completely regards science as the basis for his promotion. He studies science.
, he just thinks that science can give him greater power and power.
After the Thule Society weakened, he felt that the Thule Society could no longer satisfy his ambitions, so he made a decision. He betrayed the Thule Society and cooperated with Hitler.
I don’t know how he deceived Hitler. He actually reached a cooperation with Hitler and became Hitler’s most important spy and scientific adviser. Hitler also obtained the details of the Thule Society from Schmidt.
Thus achieving the goal of annexing the power of Thule Society.
These two scientists, who were also studying super soldier serum, embarked on completely different paths.
Erskine originally planned to carry out some ordinary research in the United States and let the super soldier serum be submerged in time. That thing was too dangerous. Anyway, in Erskine's opinion, besides being able to create murderers and madmen, this thing was not useful at all.
It may allow people to evolve.
But Schmidt is different. He always firmly believes that the super soldier serum is the key to human evolution. Once his research is completed, he will become a pioneer of mankind. Of course, he doesn't care much about the title of pioneer. He hopes to obtain it.
The power to rule over humanity.
As a result, the world is unpredictable, and the paths of the two people once again changed dramatically. Erskine originally did not intend to study, but the US government forced him to study, but unexpectedly, he actually researched something, a thing that can
A way to circumvent the original drawbacks of the Super Soldier Serum.
Originally, the Super Soldier Serum could make people become evil and crazy. But with Erskine's unremitting efforts, he was able to semi-overcome this problem. Why semi-overcome? The reason is very simple. He could not completely eliminate the serum that can make people become evil.
Crazy things can make good people better and bad people worse!
So he chose a child with a weak constitution but a firm and kind mind as the first experimental subject of the serum. That was Steve Rogers, the famous Captain America during World War II. Then Erskine was given to the Germans
Killed...
Schmidt was different. He finally gave up on the super soldier serum because his experiment on himself went wrong. But he thought of other ways to fight for his rights, that is, to seek other powers, anyway, the path of technology
There are thousands of them, there is no need to fight with the Super Soldier Serum.
As a result, he was fucked hard by Super Soldier Steve.
…
The rise of Captain America made people begin to forget those heroes who were sung by many people during World War I. Many people even began to think that those heroes in World War I were just boring battlefield legends.
Wonder Woman became the boast of a group of nihilistic feminists, and the legend of the Knight King was ridiculed by American soldiers as the British's own obscenity.
In modern times, even people who were originally closely related to those legends have begun to gradually forget those people and things that should be remembered.
For example...Kingsman.
Kingsman was originally an espionage organization founded with Kai's support. Their power came from two things. One was a huge financial source. In addition to the extremely noble people who founded Kingsman, they donated all their family property to Kingsman.
For the development of Kingsman, Kai himself also invested 13 companies in Kingsman, giving Kingsman a solid economic foundation.
Without stable and abundant financial support, Kingsman would not have been able to develop to its current level. By the 21st century, Kingsman has become one of the world's leading private intelligence agencies, its size and power even surpassing that of the United Kingdom.
Military Intelligence Bureau.
In addition to the huge financial support, what is more important for Kingsman to reach this point is the thirteen top agents they are proud of. These top agents, codenamed after the ancient Knights of the Round Table, are known as the entire twenty.
The most powerful agent of the century, which even SHIELD, the world's most powerful agent organization, cannot compare to.
But few people know that the main reason why these thirteen top agents are so powerful is precisely because Kai lent them the Holy Grail of Life!
It is precisely because of the Holy Grail of Life that each generation of their top agents has extraordinary physical fitness and reaction speed. This allows them to be invincible when performing tasks.
But time is really a force that can annihilate everything.
With Kai's disappearance, Kingsman, the secret service organization, gradually began to deviate from the original intention of its establishment.
…
The time comes to 2003.
Alfred is 106 years old, but he still maintains a very healthy body because of the Holy Grail. Within Kingsman, many people are speculating on the ability of this veteran who has been active in the organization since the establishment of Kingsman.
How many years to live.
Alfred himself didn't care much about this. He knew his destiny. He knew this when his grandfather asked Kai, the King of Knights, to use the Holy Grail to revive him in Egypt. His soul belonged to the Holy Grail. Alfred
Reid himself did not resist this, and even considered it an honor for him.
With the help of the Holy Grail, he witnessed generations of Kingsman gentlemen sacrificing themselves to protect the world. Compared with them, he has lived for so many years, which is enough. Returning to the Holy Grail is the connection between him, the Holy Grail, and the Lord.
A sacred contract, a contract he was more than happy to fulfill.
But before that, he felt he had to do something for humanity.
Alfred lived for more than a hundred years. He saw through the various aspects of life, and he also left behind deep disappointments.
He originally thought that their cause was beneficial to mankind and the entire world! Their efforts and sacrifices could make the world a better place!
But in the end he discovered that he was wrong, so wrong!
Humanity has never changed for the better, they still hate each other and kill each other! Most of the crises Kingsman has dealt with over the years were caused by the greed of those people themselves!
When Alfred was forty, he asked himself, will mankind be okay?
World War II was raging at that time.
But the answer he gave himself was that it would be good! He believed that his struggle could make mankind better!
When he turned fifty, he asked himself the same question.
He still thinks humans will be fine!
At that time, it was the Iron Curtain era, and the two superpowers began to confront each other.
At the age of eighty, he still asked himself this question.
He still believes that mankind will be better. He thinks that mankind will learn something from the lessons of the past. They need time.
On his ninetieth birthday, he asked himself this question again.
But at that time, he hesitated. He couldn't blurt out that humans would be better.
On the contrary, he thinks humans are sick!
At the age of 100, his thoughts completely changed.
Humanity will not get better!
During these years, the world's total population tripled!
Perhaps many people think that this world is the best stage in human history, with peace, prosperity, and vigorous economic and cultural development.
But Alfred saw a crisis, a big crisis that could affect the life and death of mankind!
If this continues, mankind is destined to have an unprecedented huge war due to issues such as energy and survival. After the end of World War II, Kingsman scientists predicted that once a world war breaks out again, mankind will be destroyed because of this war.
.
Alfred agreed with this conjecture. In the late World War II, humans invented too many weapons that could destroy the entire human civilization.
This made Alfred very anxious. Will humans be okay?
The anxiety was driving Alfred crazy!
This is his responsibility. He promised his master that he would do his best to protect the entire world!
…
This anxiety was only alleviated by a plan two months ago.
Two months ago, a rich man approached Alfred. Richmond Valentine, the founder and chairman of the Valentine Group, a world-renowned technology company. This group covers communications, transportation, aerospace, the Internet, etc.
Various emerging industries. Even Time magazine predicted that in the near future, Valentine will surpass Tony Stark, the chairman of Stark Group, and become the richest man in the world.
The billionaire's purpose is simple. He hopes Alfred can participate in a plan - a population reduction plan!
Valentine believes that the world is getting worse, and humans are the culprit. He used a very interesting metaphor. He compared humans to the virus and the earth to the host. Global warming means that the earth is having a fever. This is a sign.
, which indicates two endings.
One is when the host actively kills the virus, and the other is when the virus kills the host.
But no matter which outcome, the virus will be finished!
So he formulated a plan to selectively reduce the population!
The advantage of this is that they have the initiative. They can choose the way to reduce the population in the least harmful way to human beings. They can abandon those populations that are not necessary for human beings as a whole. Just like natural selection, species want to continue to develop, and naturally
The old, weak, sick and disabled will be eliminated. Their approach is the same. They choose to retain those parts that are valuable to mankind and eliminate the bad and worthless population!
In this way, human beings can continue to develop in the healthiest posture! And the world can rest and recuperate like a patient whose carrion has been removed.
Kill two birds with one stone.
If Alfred who was a hundred years old heard this, he would not hesitate to pull the trigger and kill the madman in front of him.
But now Alfred is very confused. He doesn't know the way forward for the future. He is in despair and confusion. He doesn't have much time. If he can make mankind better before returning to the Holy Grail, he is willing to do so.
Do!
…
But before that could happen, Alfred felt that some stumbling blocks had to be cleared.
"I'm sorry... Galahad."
Kingsman is a knight of the new era, and their top agents are code-named after the thirteen Knights of the Round Table. Alfred is the leader of all the 'Knights of the Round Table', code-named 'Arthur'! And the agent code-named Galahad is
He is Alfred's most promising successor. He is brave, courageous, calm, and unparalleled in ability, and is synonymous with the perfect agent.
Without Valentine's plan, Alfred might have given him Arthur's code name and let him lead Kingsman.
But it doesn't work now. All Galahad's advantages have become an obstacle to the plan. Alfred once thought about winning over Galahad, but finally gave up. Because he knew that Galahad would not agree to this heartless lunatic.
Plan. Just like Alfred when he was young.
So he must die!
Alfred looked at the screen in the secret meeting room, which was connected to Galahad's glasses. From here, he could see everything Galahad saw.
And now Alfred is watching Galahad walk towards a church, where is the trap of death prepared for Galahad,
But at this moment, the director of Kingsman Technology, codenamed ‘Merlin’, broke into the secret meeting room!
Alfred was unhappy with Merlin disturbing him at such a moment.
"Merlin..."
But before Alfred could express his opinion, Merlin took out the tablet in his hand and showed it to Alfred. There was a Kingsman logo flashing on it, with a Holy Grail suddenly burning in the middle of the logo: "Yes
The feedback from the temple! It’s the Holy Grail! It’s the Holy Grail that’s starting to burn! The Holy Grail is starting to burn!!!!”
Alfred stood up all of a sudden and overturned the chairs under him. But he didn't pay attention to this at all. He asked with a flushed face: "Merlin!!! You have to understand that this kind of thing is not a joke.
Yes! Do you understand the consequences?"
"Of course, no Kingsman would joke about this!" 'Merlin' pushed the tablet in his hand directly in front of Alfred.
Seeing the pattern on it, Alfred thought for almost a second, then immediately turned around and said to Galahad who was about to enter the church: "Galahat! Mission cancelled! Repeat, mission cancelled! Mission cancelled!"
Galahad, who had already placed his hand on the door handle of the church, was very surprised. This had never happened before.
"What?"
"Return to the headquarters immediately! Immediately! Not only you, but all agents operating outside must return to the headquarters as soon as possible! Galahad, there are more important things waiting for us now. The servants of the King of Knights must
Return to the Holy Grail of the King!"
After saying that, Alfred picked up the pen on one side and plunged it into his neck. This action almost frightened Merlin out of his wits. He thought 'Arthur' wanted to commit suicide!
As a result, Alfred stirred his neck with a pen and picked out a chip. He threw the chip on the table, then covered his neck and said to Merlin who was confused: "You will need to start again soon."
Choose someone to replace me."
"Why... why?"
"Because... I betrayed Kingsman. I am no longer suitable to be the leader of Kingsman." After speaking, Alfred looked blankly at the flashing rune logo on the tablet, and smiled.
Said: "I still think being a housekeeper is more suitable for me. After all, my family has been doing this for generations!"
…
At the same time, in the jungles of South America, a U.S. military team was fighting a group of mysterious warriors. The situation in the battle was obvious, and the U.S. military team was about to be unable to withstand it.
"Faq! Base! Base! We have been attacked, we have been attacked! We need support! We need support! We need support!!!" A US captain was holding his satellite phone and constantly seeking support from the base.
"Adam! Adam! Come on, Adam has been shot! He needs help!" At this time, a soldier saw that his companion had been shot, and immediately shouted to the teammates behind him to help.
The two soldiers took turns to cover and came to the soldier named Adam, grabbed his body armor and dragged him behind.
After arriving behind a bunker, a soldier began to fight back on the spot, while another soldier untied Adam's equipment and planned to give him first aid. He cut off Adam's clothes and blocked the wound on Adam's chest with a hemostatic bag.
, constantly comforting Adam.
"Hey, rookie, hey! Look at me, look at me, don't sleep, don't sleep! You'll be fine, you'll be fine, this little injury won't kill you!"
Adam was already short of breath due to blood loss. He raised his pale face, twitched the corners of his mouth, and planned to say something, but his expression suddenly changed and he pushed his comrade away with all his strength.
"careful!!!"
The moment he pushed his comrades away, countless blue light groups began to explode around them. They also made a piercing scream. The sound was like countless people scratching blackboards in their ears.
Just two seconds later, all Adam's comrades were killed! Only Adam, who was seriously injured, was left dying, waiting for death to come.
Their enemies quickly came up and looked at the miserable situation on the ground, but they seemed very calm.
"Doctor, your invention seems to be effective, the ultrasonic weapon... Hehe, this time the organization should give our branch more resources, right?"
These enemies didn't seem to think that there would be any living people here.
"Of course...hahaha!" This should be a doctor.
Adam's eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and he felt like he might fall asleep at any time. He knew that once he fell asleep, he would never be able to wake up, but he couldn't resist the sleepiness. He was going to die...
But at this time, the weather suddenly changed. The clear sky just now turned into dark clouds, and countless lightning bolts exploded in the sky.
The ground began to tremble.
"What the hell is this?!!!!" Adam heard someone shout.
"Get away! Get away! Get away quickly!"
"Why is there golden lightning? What is this thing?"
Adam felt those noisy shouts getting further and further away, becoming more and more blurry, and he knew that his time was up.
"My child, I'm sorry, I can't save you, I'm really sorry. But I can avenge you, and the price is your body. Are you willing?"
Adam felt that he was hallucinating, but he still subconsciously replied: "I...will..."
It's death anyway. If someone is really willing to avenge him, he doesn't mind giving up his body. A dead skin is not lost at all.
"very good!"
In the outside world, a group of people saw a golden lightning bolt constantly traveling through the forest, attaching itself to the dead bodies, and then popping out again. Finally, the lightning bolt attached to the body of a pretty boy.
But this time the lightning didn’t pop up again!
On the contrary, countless lightnings in the sky began to converge on the body of the pretty boy. The pretty boy who should have been dead was held up in the air by thunder and lightning, and countless lightnings poured into his body.
"What the hell is this..." Everyone was stunned.
After almost a minute, the thunder and lightning gradually dissipated, leaving only the pretty boy standing there.
A group of people look at each other and don’t know what to do.
"Ah... It's really... terrible... Fortunately, I found this body, otherwise..." The pretty boy muttered a few words to himself, then suddenly raised his head: "I almost forgot, I promised him,
To avenge him... you are not good people anyway, so go die in peace!"
After the pretty boy said these words inexplicably, he raised his hand, and all the American guns originally scattered on the ground floated out of thin air, pointed at everyone around him, and then opened fire!
Soon the forest returned to calm, and everyone was dead.
Only the young warrior named Adam remained.
"...The condition of this body is too bad...I...need to take a rest...I hope someone will come to save me. It's really unlucky...I didn't expect that I, Kai, would be hurt like this one day by a little girl...
…”
It turns out that the person who entered Adam's body was none other than Kai, who had been missing for more than 80 years!
After saying this, Adam, or now Kai, fell to the ground.
And above the tree canopy more than ten kilometers away from their fighting position, a U.S. Black Hawk helicopter gunship was speeding in based on the last coordinates of the previous U.S. team.
At the same time, in an underground building far away in England, a golden cup was flashing with a dazzling blue flame. This was the Holy Grail of Life kept by Kingsman! And the blue flame was the flame of the soul.
This means that the Holy Grail has sensed his master!
