Chapter 726 Space is the ocean, and spaceships are battleships
As soon as Black Widow drove away from the Kensington estate, she dialed Nick Fury's phone.
As soon as the call was connected, Nick Fury was heard asking anxiously, "Did you find anything useful?"
Black Widow shook her head helplessly, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart,
I thought that with her appearance, figure and skills, it wouldn't be too easy to get William.
But what she and Nick Fury never expected was that William was so difficult to get close to.
After all the hard work and SHIELD's assistance, it has been three months since I even had the chance to get close to William, let alone see him, let alone copy the blueprints of the Mars spacecraft.
Fortunately, I was finally at the manor today, and I accidentally bumped into William who left the laboratory early, and I heard some useful news.
If she couldn't learn more secrets, she would be embarrassed to stay in the Devonshire Group anymore.
"Well, today I unexpectedly met Devon Hill who showed up early. After listening to his conversation with Abigail, I determined that there is a laboratory underground in Kensington Manor.
And according to Devon Hill, the scale of this laboratory is quite large.
He can even conduct experiments on materials and fission inside."
"Are you sure it's a fission experiment?" Nick Fury interrupted Natasha and asked in a horrifying voice, "Where did he get the equipment and raw materials? And what is the direction of the research? Is it weapons-grade research?
"
"Only you can check the materials and equipment," Natasha rolled her eyes and continued, "As for whether it is a weapon, I can't be sure for the time being.
But depending on the situation, it should be research on energy. Devin Hill said that he invented an aerospace engine. Using nuclear energy can only produce one-tenth of the engine's function.
Nick, I don’t know if this is true, but if it is true, then the solar system will probably become Devon Hill’s back garden in the future.”
"We all understand what you said, but what do you want us to do, directly enter Devon Hill's manor to search?"
Nick Fury said irritably, "If this is really the case, there is no need for Devon Hill to take action.
The English will either sieve the people I send or put them directly in a black field prison."
After speaking like a vent, Nick Fury couldn't help but think of these three months. In the first month, he and some of the people above him were still a little patient.
But another month later, Natasha still couldn't get close to William, so some people began to secretly send people to London.
In just over a month, six SHIELD agents died at the hands of English agents or Devon Hill.
From the first time he heard that the English agents were attacking SHIELD agents, Nick Fury was furious and found various connections.
He planned to force England to severely punish those who ordered the killing of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents and their chief officers.
It's a pity that England, whether it's at the top or the operatives below, is no match for the Mars spacecraft.
Now, the only agent who still exists in SHIELD is Black Widow who can still steal the spacecraft's information.
Thinking of this, Nick Fury felt that what he said was too discouraging, let alone complaining in front of his subordinates.
Slowing down his tone, he said, "Now the whole of England is waiting for that spaceship to take off.
Once the spacecraft is real, England may have the advantage of entering space many years earlier than other countries.
Treat space as an ocean, treat spaceships as cruisers and battleships, and restore the world's number one position two hundred years ago.
Therefore, after Devonshire promised to start the assembly of the spacecraft at the England Space Center,
The whole of England will support William Devonshire more than any country can support a private individual.
There are already rumors that London has secretly entered the highest level of martial law."
"Since there is nothing we can do to stop him, then we will also fully support him and gain that fragile friendship, which is better than getting nothing at all."
Natasha thought silently for a moment and said, "Judging from my experience working with Abigail in the past three months,
The money spent by the Devonshire Group on that spacecraft has probably exceeded 500 million pounds.
Although I don’t know where the core equipment will be built, I can’t think of anyone who would spend so much money to set up such a scam.
And those components that are outsourced for production all show that Devon Hill is building spaceships."
"Okay, you're right. If you can't stop it, just obey him. I will report to the World Security Council." Nick Fury shook his head and sighed, "Forget it, I'll report to Pierce.
England itself is a member of the Committee of Safety, so it is better for each country to leave this kind of headache to itself."
In this way, William finally got rid of external constraints and began to speed up the assembly of the Mars spacecraft.
As for the various temptations in secret, stealing secrets, and counter-stealing secrets, it all depends on each person's ability.
When the spacecraft entered the final debugging stage, England's special department caught a lot of secrets and high-status secrets.
Some spacecraft parameters have fetched sky-high prices of hundreds of millions of dollars in the underground world.
When William personally escorted the spacecraft engine and the Ark reactor, which was only the size of a refrigerator, into the space center in England at his own expense,
In the newly built private dust-free factory of Devon Hill Group, all components of the spacecraft are fully assembled.
Because the energy source is not solid fuel like rockets, but a controllable cold fusion Ark reactor, the pilot fire of the spacecraft engine was very successful.
After various tests showed that the thrust-to-weight ratio of the spacecraft engine was a hundred times that of existing solid fuel engines, the black market began to look down on the spacecraft engine and that William.
The price of the information on the Ark reactor that I thought was too big was worth one billion U.S. dollars.
Even just a data report on the push-to-weight ratio is priced at US$50 million.
This is entirely an attempt to use super generous rewards to lure those who participated in the spacecraft engine ignition experiment.
Unfortunately, everyone who participated in the experiment this time not only signed a confidentiality agreement that is said to be the most stringent and punishable in history, but
Even with their prior knowledge, they voluntarily allowed the British authorities to send their family members directly to a secret base.
The spacecraft experiment was successful, and the next step was the test flight.
On the last day of December 2001, the space center in the suburbs of London, England, was tightly protected by tens of thousands of soldiers and various weapons and equipment.
Except for the English, there were no foreigners present. Even the Americans repeatedly requested that they send people to watch the test flight of the Mars spacecraft up close.
However, the English took the warnings and threats from the Americans as air and ignored them.
Since Americans and Americans are not eligible to enter here, applications from other countries are even more impossible.
At 9:41 in the morning, William personally held the spacecraft testing equipment that the Predator purchased from Alien Technology.
After hearing that the spacecraft was in good condition and without any hidden dangers, I felt relieved and put on the Devonshire IV space armor, planning to test it out myself.
