Squeaking, an ordinary family car stopped in front of the Continental Hotel in downtown Chicago. Then Jia Ying got out of the car and hurriedly walked into the hotel.
Passing through the hotel lobby, Jia Ying went straight to the hotel kitchen.
When the people in the kitchen saw Jia Ying coming, they pretended not to see him and continued busy with their work.
Jia Ying did not stay here too long, but passed through the kitchen and came to the cold storage.
Opening the cold storage, Jia Ying walked through the hanging piles of various meats and walked to the innermost part of the cold storage, pulling down a switch with an emergency sign on the wall.
Then the inner wall of the cold storage suddenly opened, and a downward staircase appeared in front of her.
As she stepped up the stairs, the inner wall of the cold storage behind her also closed again.
After going down the stairs, there is a door with two burly guards standing at the door.
Seeing Jia Ying arriving, he quickly opened the door and welcomed her in.
After walking through the door and turning a few more turns, passing through numerous guards, Jia Ying came to a luxurious lounge and saw Qiao Xi, who was half lying on a luxurious sofa with an ice pack on her head.
And Vito stayed by his side.
"You're here, have Margot and the children made arrangements?" Qiao Xi asked weakly when she saw Jia Ying opening the door.
This time Calvin Chadwick suddenly made an attack at the council meeting, which really caught him by surprise.
Fortunately, Qiao Xi always paid great attention to his own safety and had already prepared various means of escape for himself.
What was used this time was the technology provided by Yuri from the world of Red Alert, namely time and space teleportation.
Of course, it's not the super weapon, the time teleporter.
After all, the super-control teleporter is a big thing that can teleport large-scale armies. It is extremely difficult to build. It requires various precision instruments and equipment. Even with Yuri's technical support, it would be quite difficult to complete it quickly.
Difficult things.
So until now, the relevant information about this thing is only used as a technical reserve and stored in Qiao Xi's system warehouse.
And because that thing is extremely powerful, if a living body is transported without adequate protection, the huge force field can be used to blast ordinary living bodies into particles.
So what Qiao Xi used to escape this time was actually a simplified teleportation device of the Chrono Infantry.
However, if the original Chrono Infantry wants to teleport, it also needs a complete set of protective equipment. After all, Chrono Teleportation is, to put it bluntly, space teleportation, and this is a very dangerous thing. If there is any negligence, the power of space distortion will
It can tear people into pieces.
However, Yuri invented an energy field technology and developed a new time-space teleportation device, which temporarily generates a temporary energy field as a protection to prevent people from being torn apart by powerful space forces during teleportation.
broken.
Moreover, this device is only about the size of a belt buckle and is very safe. Of course, it is impossible for Josie to just use this kind of thing. She must find someone to try it.
Before this official use, Qiao Xi had already had more than a dozen Ouroboros agents test it, and no safety issues were found.
He only needs to set up a spatial locator at a certain location in advance, and this "belt buckle" can instantly send him to the location of the spatial locator.
Theoretically speaking, in the absence of spatial interference, this kind of transmission can be said to have infinite distance.
Of course, the theory is just a theory. In fact, the distance transmitted is related to the energy contained in the belt buckle.
Based on the amount of energy that can be stored at one time, the actual maximum transmission distance is only about 20,000 kilometers - exactly half a circle around the equator.
The Ouroboros underground base at the Continental Hotel in Chicago is where Josie set up.
But why Yuri was able to invent such a device, Qiao Xi also had a lot of credit.
Because the source of the energy field technology Yuri invented was the Cosmic Cube energy in the batch of Cosmic Cube energy weapons made by Hydra that Qiao Xi gave to Yuri two years ago.
Earlier, Josie was worried that the energy of the Cosmic Cube would lose its properties after changing universes.
Just like in the TV series Loki, the Infinity Stones were directly turned into useless stones within the TVA (Time Variation Administration).
But after the transaction was completed, Qiao Xi discovered through communication with Yuri that this was not the case. In Yuri's world, the energy of the infinite stones still maintained its active state and characteristics, which brought great help to Yuri's technological research.
.
Then Josie remembered that in another universe, the Infinity Stones wouldn't be able to be used. This theory made no sense at all.
Because in Avengers 4, the Avengers members just "borrowed" gems from other universes, and their power has not diminished at all.
If so, the Infinity Stones of Ultron Infinity and Guardians of the Multiverse can be used no matter which universe they are in.
Therefore, in TVA, the infinity stones cannot be used, which can only be attributed to the special location of TVA - it should be a cosmic rift that does not belong to any universe.
The rules of the conventional material universe are invalid there, so the Infinity Stones become useless stones.
But as long as it is in a normal material universe, then the infinite stones and their energy are available!
It was this conclusion that gave Qiao Xi an idea, that is, he only needed to trade one of the infinite gems in this universe to other universes.
Then Thanos in his universe would never be able to snap his fingers.
Of course, it's still too early now, and Qiao Xi hasn't even touched the Rubik's Cube yet, so this idea can only be kept in mind for the time being.
Due to limited production capacity and Yuri's own needs, Qiao Xi only has ten such single-person teleportation devices in his hands so far.
Apart from Josie, only Margot, Vito, Ophelia, Jia Ying and Francesca have them.
Among them, Margot had three in her hands, and the extra two were naturally prepared for the children.
Josie kept the remaining three for herself.
Moreover, the location of the spatial locator corresponding to each hyperspace teleportation device is also inconsistent.
For example, the three in Josie's hands, except for the one located here with Vito, one of the other two is with the locators of Margot and the two babies, and the location is not in the United States.
But in Europe.
As for the location of the last transmission device's locator, only Qiao Xi himself knew it.
However, if it was not an emergency like this time to save his life, Qiao Xi would never use this thing casually.
Judging from the sickly appearance of Josie, who was originally in good health, you can tell that the feeling of teleportation is very bad. Josie's body will not be able to recover without lying down for a day.
On the contrary, Vito only vomited a little and recovered. After all, he is also a super soldier and has a beautiful physical condition.
Another reason is that the energy required by the space-time teleportation device is limited.
Although Aldo intercepted a warehouse of Hydra weapons, the energy contained in the Cosmic Cube was not very large, and a lot of it was consumed during Yuri's research.
And Yuri will also need to continue researching in the future.
So now less than one-third of the energy in storage is left.
Once it cannot be replenished with energy, this hyperspace-time device is just a piece of scrap iron. No, it cannot be said to be scrap iron.
Without the force field formed by the energy of the Cosmic Cube, one would have to wear a full set of protective equipment, or could only teleport dead objects, and consume a huge amount of power - and this has become one of the important reasons why Qiao Xi coveted the Cosmic Cube.
.
"Everything has been arranged, the madam and the young master are safe, Francesca is taking care of them!" Jia Ying replied when faced with Qiao Xi's inquiry.
After Qiao Xi and Vito teleported away from the council, they managed to notify Jia Ying and Ophelia as soon as possible.
Let Jia Ying arrange the transfer of Margot and the others - since Calvin dares to openly take action on the board of directors and break the rules of the board of directors, then we cannot expect him not to kidnap women and children.
As for Ophelia, they are naturally preparing for revenge.
Since Calvin openly broke his skin, don't blame Josie for being rude.
"This bitch is dead. Even Mephisto can't save him! I said so!" Josie said fiercely.
But this is not his problem alone.
"Have you contacted Huw Jones?" Josie asked Vito.
"Contacted, Mr. Jones is safe now, and has already mobilized his Scarlet Guards. He is just waiting for you to get ready, and they will attack Calvin together, but he also said how to deal with the man who has mastered zero matter.
Black people are a problem that both of us need to face. After all, we don’t know anything about zero matter!" Vito replied.
"Scarlet Guard? Why isn't he called Scarlet Crusader? What an unlucky name!" After hearing Vito's words, Josie couldn't help but complain.
Vito was a little puzzled when he heard this. How could this name be unlucky? He actually thought it was quite impressive.
However, Qiao Xi just made a casual comment and quickly changed the topic to zero matter.
"To say that we don't have the slightest understanding of zero matter, that's not necessarily true!" A strange look appeared on Qiao Xi's face. His memory was still good. When the council met to allocate the research work on zero matter,
, he once browsed the report on zero matter.
Although the Council applied for the research rights to zero matter through its own channels at that time, in fact the Department of the Army still retained a part of zero matter.
And it happened that after the CIA was established, he had seen a zero-matter research application report submitted by the Department of the Army to the Office of the President - the applicant for that report was not some other company, but the Stark Group...
Thinking of this, Qiao Xi struggled to get up. Upon seeing this, Jia Ying immediately stepped forward to help him.
With Jia Ying's support, Qiao Xi came to the phone and dialed a number.
"This is Stark Group, please tell me your name and purpose?" came the sweet female voice of the Stark Group operator on the phone.
"I am Josie Kahn, Director of the Management Division of the CIA in the White House. I am looking for Mr. Howard Stark. I have something very important to talk to him about." Josie directly reported his identity,
And deliberately put the name of the White House on the front.
After all, the current CIA has just been established less than a year ago, has little reputation, and is far from the super agency that everyone will know in later generations.
Therefore, it will be much easier to do things with the name of the White House.
Moreover, the CIA is directly responsible to the president, so there is no problem at all in using the name of the White House.
"Uh... I'm sorry, Director Kahn, I'm afraid I can't contact Mr. Stark for you. He should be at the experimental base in Santa Barbara County, California now, but I can contact his butler Javi for you.
Mr. Si!" After hearing Qiao Xi's identity, the other party hesitated for a while before replying.
"Of course, but please hurry up!" Qiao Xi was not interested in embarrassing a little operator.
He was not so anxious about revenge that he couldn't wait even a moment.
Although Calvin Chadwick relied on personal force to hold the council hostage, there was not much he could do in a short period of time.
The most they can do is use the power of the council to search for the whereabouts of Josie and Huw Jones.
As for using the same means to control the White House, the President, and then the country, that is purely a daydream...
Therefore, Josie has enough time to deal with Calvin.
Judging from the current situation, it still falls on Howard Stark to deal with Calvin.
Since the Stark Group has applied to conduct research on zero matter, Howard must have some understanding of it.
As for whether Howard will come forward in this matter, Josie is not worried at all.
…………………………………………
Just when Josie tried to use Howard Stark against Calvin Chadwick.
In the central building of Wakanda's vibranium mine, Peggy Carter also encountered a crisis.
After rescuing his brother, the two Zodiac agents, and the sluggish Fritz Klaue, Carter led them towards the floor where the research institute and the data room were located.
But when Carter and his party arrived, they saw a scene that shocked her.
That was Andrew, one of the members of the super soldier team, who, with the help of the man suspected of being Bucky, broke the neck of another super soldier, Luc.
"No...Andrew, why are you doing this?" Seeing Luc's death, Carter shouted with dismay.
Although they didn't get along for a long time, as the only three remaining super soldiers, they had a life-long friendship, and Carter did regard these two as comrades-in-arms.
But now one of the three people collaborated with an outsider to kill another companion.
How could this keep Carter from being angry?
"Oh, you came at the wrong time, Captain Carter. Since you saw me, I can only ask you and Luc to die together, and of course... and you!" Seeing Carter suddenly appear.
Among the group of people, Andrew was a little surprised, but then his expression turned ferocious!
"It's you who deserve to die!" Carter, furious, raised his sword and rushed towards Andrew.
But halfway there, he was blocked by a Wakandan spear.
The man holding a Wakanda spear to block her was the man suspected of being Bucky.
No, it’s not a suspicion, he is Bucky.
Although he was wearing a mask, Carter could easily recognize his former partner in the Strategic Science Corps after close contact... After all, Bucky now did not have that "beautiful" long hair.
"Bucky? Why?" Carter asked in confusion.
However, Bucky ignored her questions and launched a fatal attack on her.
Carter, who was in a panic, could only resist with his sword and shield.
"Hehe, it turns out that he is still an old acquaintance of yours, Captain Carter, but now he is not called Bucky. He only has another name, and that is the Winter Soldier... By the way, he is a super soldier like us!"
Seeing Carter's embarrassed look, Andrew said jokingly, and at the same time turned his attention to Michael Carter and four other people who were a little at a loss.
