The only good thing about Afghanistan is that you don’t have to follow traffic rules. There are no asphalt roads at all. The road is filled with yellow sand and smoke. From time to time, you can see some livestock excrement piled up on the roadside. The stench wafts in the wind, let alone women.
Even men can't stand it.
Daisy closed the car window early and directed the action through the walkie-talkie.
Jimmy, who can speak Pashto, is in the first car, and any matters that need to be negotiated along the way are left to him.
Daisy sat in the second car and directed and coordinated the operation.
Colonel Rody rode in the third car and was responsible for holding down the formation.
The Global Hawk was also arranged to conduct preliminary reconnaissance.
Mockingbird Bobby was driving the car, and Daisy was sitting in the passenger seat in a daze. The first two times she found Corami, she swore that success was just around the corner, but now she won't be so sure.
"Daisy, are you going back to China for Christmas or staying here?" Bobby asked while driving carelessly.
In her opinion, Christmas is the most important holiday of the year. A person like Daisy must have a lot of things to do during the Christmas period. It is impossible to accompany them to find billions in Afghanistan, a place where birds do not poop and chickens do not lay eggs.
Rich man.
Having been searching for more than a month, Poppy didn’t think that a playboy like Tony Stark could survive in an environment surrounded by enemies.
"Christmas?" Bobby's words made Daisy feel melancholy. She really didn't have any Christmas habits. She just thought of spending last Christmas with Hill. Now the relationship between the two has been cast a shadow because of mutual competition.<
/p>
Hill has been avoiding her and has not returned to the headquarters for half a year.
Daisy's self-regulation ability is very strong, and she quickly puts her troubles behind her. She thought about it and realized that it might not be a bad idea to take the troops back for Christmas.
Now I am afraid that except for herself and the black colonel, everyone in the team thinks that Tony Stark is dead. For the sake of a dead man, Christmas is delayed, and the team is dragged into the wilderness to fight with tribal armed forces. This is in the eyes of the US military.
A great sin.
Daisy estimated that if she gave the order forcefully, she would be able to escape half of them, and the other half would complain to the Pentagon that they had no human rights, were undemocratic, were dictatorial, etc. after returning home...
Why should she be such a villain?
Take out the walkie-talkie and discuss this matter with Colonel Rody. If there are no clues in the small town of Kolami ahead, then lead the team back to the base for Christmas, and then come out to look for it after the holidays.
Colonel Roddy is an active soldier, and the dissatisfaction among his subordinates can be seen. He is under more pressure than Daisy, so he agreed after a little hesitation.
When the soldiers heard the news, they howled again. They had had enough in this poor place.
Daisy nodded and smiled, accepting a lot of compliments.
Turning her gaze to the window, she was also thinking about what she should do for Christmas.
Huh? Just as she was thinking about it, she suddenly found that the place she was in was extremely desolate.
Not to mention traces of human and animal activities around, not even a single bird can be seen.
There was an aura in the air that made her heart palpitate, and the beast intuition after the blessing of the Cheetah Goddess reminded her to stay away from this place and run as far away as possible.
"Shut up! Stop the car! Stop the car quickly!" She hurriedly stopped the team.
The soldiers who were still cheering didn't know what happened. Seeing her serious face, they stepped on the brakes.
Daisy climbed to the top of the chariot and looked into the distance, but unfortunately she saw nothing.
But fear was like a dark cloud weighing on her heart, leaving her speechless.
"What's the matter, Daisy?" The black colonel was familiar with her and asked directly by her name.
She ignored the black colonel and looked around. Everywhere she looked was desolate and lifeless, with jagged rocks. There seemed to be no life here.
Calling Jimmy, a young man who was preparing to return to Tennessee to marry a wife, Daisy asked: "Did that tribe old man point you to this road?"
Jimmy confirmed it twice and answered her with certainty, "This is the way."
"Something's wrong, something's so wrong..." She muttered to herself, then turned to ask her agents, "Has the Global Hawk discovered anything ahead?"
"Sir, there is a lot of interference here, and the signal transmission is very slow." The agent called up the Global Hawk's reconnaissance image, and Daisy hurriedly looked at it. Indeed, as the agent said, the transmission image was completely distorted, and the image could not be seen at all.<
/p>
"Check the magnetic field here, there may be some minerals nearby..." Before Daisy could finish her words, she saw the image receiving interface suddenly black screen.
"Sir, the Global Hawk's positioning signal has also disappeared!" The agent's words made her heart sink. Did someone shoot down the Global Hawk? Or did it hit some mountain?
After receiving the news that the drone was suspected of crashing, Colonel Rody felt heartbroken. It would be better if Stark could be rescued. But if he couldn't be rescued, or he was dead...who would pay the money? p>
Daisy had no time to care about the black colonel's concerns. She ordered the convoy to retreat and stay away from here.
In the past, the tribal elders, herdsmen, adults and children who were within the range of her shock wave induction were all hostile to them. It became a habit and she did not notice anything unusual at the time. Now it is guessed that it was probably the tribal elder who tricked them. Here is
A super scary trap is waiting for them.
"Don't we go looking for the Global Hawk? Even if it crashes, we have to bring back the fragments!" The black colonel hurriedly grabbed her.
Daisy was a little hesitant. The cost of building a Global Hawk is quite high...
But she still gritted her teeth and said: "I apologize, get out of here now! There is a problem here!"
Seeing how solemn she said it, the black colonel had some ominous premonitions in his heart, but he was still quite generous, "How can I ask you to pay the compensation privately? It's my responsibility..."
Daisy was too lazy to research who was responsible. Her shock wave penetrated deep into the distant ground and found that it contained a terrifying energy, like a nuclear reactor waiting to explode. The exploration told her that it was not a reactor, but a small
A lot of things, a bit like a person.
She cut off the shock wave urgently, pulled Rody into her car, then turned around and ran away.
No matter who this "person" is, she can never defeat him.
No Stark is as important as his life.
Many U.S. troops didn't know what happened, but they still had the spirit of obedience. The vehicles turned around, stepped on the accelerator, and sped away towards the way they came.
The soldiers did not need to explain. Colonel Rody had to explain a few words to him in detail.
Daisy considered her words. She was guessing who the "people" in the mountains were. Considering that Kama Taj is at the highest peak in the world, the ancient master could be removed.
Odin is his god-king in Asgard. Even when he goes on vacation on Earth, he wanders around Northern Europe and will not come to Afghanistan. It is impossible for the remaining heavenly father-level gods to go to practice deep underground in this wilderness.<
/p>
Of course, it’s even less likely to be mutants like Jean Grey, Apocalypse.
Afghanistan, the Ten Rings Gang, Stark, several keywords are connected, and the only strong person Daisy can think of is the Mandarin! Not a counterfeit, but the Mandarin wearing ten rings!
