Daniel Whitehall, one of the giants of Hydra, and Strucker and Zemo are also immortals who survived the war years.
Unlike the five fingers of Hand Hehui, which all rely on a dragon bone to stay alive, these immortals from World War II to today each have their own secret recipes for staying alive. For example, Baron Strucker relies on the modified version of the Super Soldier Serum, the Infinite Formula Serum, to delay life.
It caused aging. And Whitehall relied on alien cells.
Whitehall's men captured an eternally youthful alien woman. Yong cut out her internal organs in extremely cruel ways, took away her powers, and transplanted this ability into Whitehall's body to help
He was rejuvenated and gained the ability to absorb the life force of others.
By the way, that alien woman happens to be the biological mother of Skye (real name Daisy Johnson), the shock wave girl in Coulson's team, who has been missing for many years.
Richard casually borrowed the body of a Hydra agent and followed Sunil Bakshi with his hands behind his back in the corridor of the Whitehall base. Mr. Bakshi was Dr. Whitehall’s closest confidant
His subordinates, whose status is roughly equivalent to that of the bald brother under Minister Lao Pi in the past, are his most capable assistants.
Agent Bakshi led the way. He was obviously in his own base and the other party was alone, but he couldn't help but keep swallowing, and he didn't even dare to look back at the guest.
It felt as if even if he just glanced back, he might die suddenly.
Agent Bakshi has heard many rumors about this Hydra god. He heard that this ancestor has survived alone in the harsh environment of the alien planet for thousands of years. Based on this alone, he should have thought that this god has already surpassed human beings.
Scope. He even heard that this ancestor has countless superpowers. He can defeat a whole team of heavily armed agents by himself, and he also has the ability to make people obey him like a pug.
Countless rumors made him unable to help but feel nervous. In his eyes, the fact that the other party dared to come to the base of their Hydra branch alone without any soldiers was proof of their strength and confidence.
Fortunately, their destination was soon reached, and Mr. Bakshi breathed a sigh of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted. He took a step back and motioned to the door in front of him.
"Dr. Whitehall has been waiting a long time," he said.
Richard nodded slightly, opened the door and walked in.
The gentleman in the light gray suit in the room was standing with his back to the door, facing the dazzling sunshine, and he did seem to have a bit of a boss behind the scenes personality.
"When I received the notice that you were coming to talk in person, I suspected that I heard it wrong." Whitehall sat down at his desk and crossed his fingers. "I have always hoped to talk to you.
We talked, but we never got the chance. What, is there anything going on today?"
Richard did not greet him and said straight to the point: "Years ago, SHIELD took into custody a creature called the 'Symbiote Dragon'. I think Dr. Whitehall, you should have an impression, right?"
Whitehall's eyes flickered behind his lenses.
"Oh, that black monster?" He leaned back in his chair, "I have an impression. What's wrong?"
"Pierce traded that part of the file to you, and now I need it, as well as all the clues you found related to that thing."
Whitehall narrowed his eyes slightly. He and Richard looked at each other for a moment, then he slowly took off his glasses and began to wipe them.
"This matter is a long time ago." Whitehall said leisurely, "You know I have lived for many years and have experienced too many things. Some things will inevitably be left in the corner of memory.
Getting it back may take some work... and a price."
The old guy is already making it clear that he wants benefits.
This is very reasonable. Whitehall originally paid a corresponding price to buy this information from the old Minister Pierce. Now that Snake Shield wants to get this part of the information back, they will naturally have to pay a corresponding price.
Of course, this was within Richard's expectation. In fact, he had already expected what the old guy Whitehall would say before he came to visit.
As for what price Whitehall wants most?
This is not a secret at all, anyone who is a Hydra knows it.
Richard slowly raised his hand and turned his palm, as if he had taken out a strange-shaped object from the legendary "Fourth-dimensional Chrysanthemum". The object was entirely silver, with smooth structural lines and sharp edges on the surface.
It looks like a miniature model of ancient Egyptian architecture.
Dr. Whitehall's eyes almost widened. He couldn't hold himself back and stood up from his seat with a sudden jerk.
"Where...where did you get this?" he asked.
Richard looked at him expressionlessly, did not answer, and only gently placed the thing on the table.
Dr. Whitehall's breathing became rapid, and his eyes seemed to shine. But considering his identity, he still tried his best to suppress the impulse: "This is..."
"Obelisk." Richard put his hands behind his back, "I believe this is what you have spent your whole life looking for."
The obelisk was something that Whitehall had been researching since World War II. At that time, Whitehall's scientists told him that this thing contained extremely powerful energy, and all the scientists said that the material of this thing was very special.
It is definitely not something that exists on earth, so Whitehall has always believed that this thing can be weaponized and made into some kind of weapon of mass destruction.
Later, research found that most humans who directly touch the obelisk with bare hands will be petrified by the material covering its surface and die, while only a small number of people with special talents have the power to touch it directly. At that time, Jiudou
Snake believes that those people are the chosen ones. When these people touch the obelisk, special red light patterns will appear on the surface of the obelisk, as if they are interacting with the holder (actually they are aliens).
So you can imagine Whitehall's surprised expression when he saw the "Hydra God" pick up and put down the obelisk with his bare hands.
"Are you one of them?"
Whitehall's first reaction was that the leader in front of him was also a stranger, but he quickly gave up this idea.
"No, in that case the obelisk should have a reaction." Whitehall frowned, "Since you are not one of them, why can you touch the obelisk without being petrified?"
Richard felt funny.
Hehe, if such a piece of crap can defeat him, then this disgraceful Ultraman can almost quit the group directly.
"It's a little too early to be surprised, Dr. Whitehall."
Richard spoke leisurely, turned his palm over again, and unexpectedly pulled out an obelisk from nowhere.
Whitehall almost jumped out of his chair this time.
