Pierce was killed in advance.
This also means that there is a high probability that the helicarrier incident that will occur in the tri-curved wing of S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters will not happen in the future.
Without that Helicarrier incident, Natasha would not have uploaded all SHIELD's confidential documents to the Internet.
So it is still somewhat useful for Tony to let Jarvis crack SHIELD's confidential files in advance.
However, it was not of much help to this mission.
"If we continue to cooperate in the future, we need to strengthen the exchange of intelligence between the two parties."
Tony said helplessly.
"good!"
Russell replied calmly.
After a few seconds of silence, Tony continued: "SHIELD has promised to open the database to you, so why didn't you find out the secrets hidden by Nick Fury in advance?"
For Tony, Nick Fury does have some secrets to hide.
For example, the second phase of research on the Cosmic Cube.
But for Russell, he knew about it early on.
As for Nick Fury's other secrets, he wasn't really interested.
"There's nothing to find. Nick Fury is indeed hiding something."
"However, I knew those things early on."
Russell said calmly.
"What secret?"
Tony asked immediately.
"He's using the Cube to develop weapons of mass destruction."
Although Russell's tone was calm, Tony's expression became very exciting after hearing his words.
Weapons of mass destruction?
Tony himself is a top weapons inventor, but he has never had the idea of developing weapons of mass destruction or chemical weapons.
It's not that he doesn't have this ability, it's that these weapons are simply not suitable for use on conventional battlefields.
Of course, terrorists are the exception.
"Is everything you said true?"
Although Russell was unlikely to joke with himself on this matter, Tony still felt that the news that Nick Fury had developed weapons of mass destruction without authorization was a bit too shocking.
Even if SHIELD has an official background, once this matter is known to the public, SHIELD will face a lot of trouble.
"Of course it's true, I don't joke about these things."
Russell said seriously.
Tony fell silent, wondering what he was thinking.
After being silent for nearly a minute, he slowly said: "I feel more and more now that the Cosmic Cube should not continue to be in the hands of SHIELD."
"I'm feeling it too!"
After chatting for another five or six minutes, Russell and Tony left the lounge and began to return to their respective rooms.
Tony originally wanted to go to the laboratory to assist Banner and Reed, but when he learned that SHIELD was secretly developing weapons of mass destruction, he gave up the idea.
S.H.I.E.L.D. is really not an ordinary disappointment!
Tony's evaluation of SHIELD is getting lower and lower now.
He could still view SHIELD neutrally, but since he learned that his father Howard was one of the co-founders of SHIELD, and SHIELD secretly hid Howard's belongings, his view of SHIELD has changed. It started to decline.
If Russell hadn't told him, he would still be kept in the dark.
This one incident was enough to make Tony dislike S.H.I.E.L.D.
That's my father's relic!
You actually hid it privately, and you hid it for twenty years!
After returning to the resting room, Russell played a game with the levitating cloak again.
Time passes little by little.
A few hours passed like this, and when everyone thought there was nothing to do today, a message suddenly came from the bridge, asking Russell and others to go to the bridge.
Within a few minutes, the conference table on the bridge was filled with people.
Russell, Diana, Banner, Tony, Mr. Fantastic Reed, Stone Ben, Invisible Woman Susan, Human Torch Jonathan, Captain America Rogers, Black Widow Natasha, Hawkeye Barton...
Including Nick Fury, the Fuck Man, there were a total of twelve people, filling all the seats.
Coulson, Maria Hill, Melinda May and other senior SHIELD agents could only stand aside.
When everyone was due, Nick Fury finally spoke.
"Although you are not ordinary people, this time the matter involves aliens, so I have a few small requests to make to you."
After speaking, Nick Fury glanced at everyone with his remaining right eye.
Russell and the others were silent, waiting for Nick Fury's next words.
"It shouldn't be difficult for you to defeat or capture this target alive."
"But in the process of taking action, I hope everyone can reduce the impact as much as possible."
"It's not a good thing for ordinary people to know that aliens can come to Earth at any time."
Although he said this, Nick Fury knew very well that even if he wanted to hide this kind of thing, it would not be an easy thing.
Although there are only three aliens who have stolen the Cosmic Cube, this is only for now.
After witnessing the Cosmic Cube opening a portal to bring the three Dead Blade Generals from the universe to Earth, Nick Fury was already prepared for the worst.
"Whether we can reduce the impact is not something we have the final say on."
Russell said first.
Although the current development was different from what he remembered, there was a high probability that the Chitauri army would attack New York.
But that’s hard to say.
After all, it is possible that the three generals of the Dead Blade simply took the Cosmic Cube and ran away.
In the movie universe, the Chitauri army will attack New York, mainly to help Loki dominate the earth.
But now, it was not Loki who stole the Cosmic Cube, but the three Deathblade Generals.
They have no idea of dominating the earth, or not yet.
"Of course I know this, but when you take action, try to control it."
Nick Fury said slowly.
After saying this, he made a few more small requests.
For example, try to capture the three Deathblade Generals alive as much as possible, reduce collateral damage as much as possible, etc.
When everyone thought he had called everyone here just to say this, he suddenly made a suggestion that no one had thought of.
The Avengers!
After failing to win over Diana to join S.H.I.E.L.D., Nick Fury still did not give up the idea of winning over these high-level combat forces, and proposed the reunion plan that had been formulated long ago but has never been implemented.
"Captain Rogers, Agent Romanoff, and Agent Barton have all agreed to join the Avengers."
"Although you have your own team of heroes, your goal is to better maintain world peace and prevent disasters from happening."
"I will not ask everyone to disband their team, nor will I force everyone to join the Avengers."
"What I mean is, if you don't mind, you can become a part of the Avengers while continuing to maintain the original team."
"This way, if a similar incident occurs in the future, it will be more convenient for everyone to cooperate."
"And I can assure you that as long as you are willing to be a part of the Avengers, I can allow both the Avengers and the Fantastic Four to receive support from the official level, including but not limited to authority, funding, personnel and other support."
Although Nick Fury said it tactfully, everyone present was not an idiot. You could figure out what he was planning without even thinking about it.
As soon as he finished speaking, Russell and Reed, as the leaders of the Zhenglian and the Fantastic Four, immediately chose to refuse.
Although he was rejected by Russell and Reed, Nick Fury was not surprised.
If it was so easy to get them to join the Avengers, he wouldn't have to worry about it.
"It doesn't matter, as long as I am still the director of SHIELD, this proposal will remain valid."
"If you change your mind, you can contact me at any time."
Nick Fury never expected to immediately attract people like Russell and Reed to join. The reason why he mentioned this at this time was just to plant the seeds in advance.
When the seeds are first planted, of course it is impossible to harvest immediately.
But as long as the seeds are given a certain amount of time to develop, they will produce satisfactory fruits sooner or later.
As an experienced spy, Nick Fury's patience has always been good.
Poaching is not something that can be done with a hoe.
What's more, what Nick Fury wants to poach now is Zheng Lian and the Fantastic Four.
After an impromptu meeting that was not a meeting, Russell and others were just about to leave the bridge. A SHIELD agent who was responsible for using surveillance cameras on the bridge to search for the three generals of Deathblade suddenly said loudly: "The suspected target was found, and it matches." Degree 72%!”
The SHIELD agent's words immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Place?"
Nick Fury asked quickly.
“New York, Queens!”
New York?
After hearing the SHIELD agent's report, everyone including Russell frowned slightly.
Basically they are all from New York.
As a result, the three Dead Blade Generals now appear in New York.
"Adjust course and head for New York at full speed!"
Nick Fury quickly ordered.
As soon as he finished speaking, Agents Coulson and Maria Hill returned to their respective stations.
"The speed of the Helicarrier is too slow, we will go there by ourselves!"
Jonathan the Human Torch said immediately.
"Can!"
Nick Fury looked back at Jonathan and agreed with Jonathan's suggestion.
The next second, Mr. Fantastic Reed, Jonathan and others walked towards the deck.
However, Russell did not leave the bridge immediately.
He always feels that something is wrong now, but he can't tell exactly what is wrong now.
"What's wrong?"
Diana asked softly.
"Something's wrong!"
Russell frowned and said.
Nick Fury and the others didn't know who the three Deathblade Generals were, but he knew them clearly.
The three Death Blade generals are not fools, they are the five Obsidian generals under Thanos.
Although they look a bit strange, it is not difficult for them to hide their traces.
How could they, who have rich experience in interstellar warfare, be so easily captured by surveillance equipment on Earth?
has a problem!
There must be something wrong!
Tony originally wanted to go to the warehouse and wear Mark 6 immediately.
After hearing Russell's words, he stopped and looked at Russell suspiciously.
"Banner, you stay and continue to track the location of the Cosmic Cube."
Russell said to Dr. Banner.
"good!"
Although I don't know why Russell arranged it this way, Banner won't mind if he can continue to control his body.
"After you put on your armor, I'll meet you on the deck. I'll take you there."
After giving instructions to Banner, Russell said to Tony.
Tony looked at Russell suspiciously, thought for a few seconds, and then nodded.
When Tony left the bridge, Russell took out his phone and dialed Kara's number.
It didn't take long for the call to come through.
"Stop what you are doing and go back to Zhenglian headquarters immediately. I will be there later."
Russell didn't explain too much to Kara and said it directly.
"Um!"
Although Kara didn't know what happened, she answered immediately without any hesitation.
"Keep an eye on Banner."
After hanging up the phone, Russell said to the levitating cloak floating next to him.
The levitation cloak couldn't speak and couldn't answer him.
However, the Levitation Cloak showed its thoughts with practical actions.
I saw the levitating cloak flying behind Banner and draped directly on Banner.
"Come on, let's go to the deck."
Although he could cast portal magic anywhere, Russell decided to cast portal magic on the deck in order to bring Tony with him.
Not only Tony, he also brought Mr. Fantastic Reed and others with him.
Although the planes owned by Mr. Fantastic Reed and others are very good, they are very fast and very comfortable to ride on.
But no matter how fast the plane is, it can't compare to the portal.
After arriving on the deck, Russell briefly told Mr. Fantastic Reed that he had a way to take them back to New York immediately, and then waited for Tony's arrival.
In less than half a minute, Tony, wearing Mark 6, appeared in front of them.
When Tony landed on the deck, Russell did not hesitate, took out the hanging ring belt from the system space, and cast the portal magic.
A circular portal shining with golden sparks quickly took shape.
Looking at this portal that could not be explained by science, both Reed and Tony frowned involuntarily.
What kind of super power is this?
They all knew nothing about magic and thought Russell had mastered new superpowers.
Russell had no intention of explaining to them and walked in first.
Following closely behind was Diana.
When he and Diana both passed through the portal, Mr. Fantastic Reed, Tony and others crossed the portal and returned directly from the Helicarrier to New York.
After everyone returned to New York, Russell deactivated the still-spinning portal.
"This is Queens. For the specific location of the target, you can ask Nick Fury, or you can find it yourself."
"I have other things to take care of. I'll come back later."
After speaking, Russell used the portal magic again.
Then, he took Diana into the portal
Zhenglian Headquarters.
"You go back and change your clothes first, and then wait for Kara in the living room while I go to the Supreme Sanctuary."
Russell said to Diana.
"Did you find something?"
Diana asked softly.
"It's just some guesses. I hope I'm wrong."
