Nick Fury's office.
While Russell was waiting for No. 3 to invade the core database of SHIELD, he was also waiting for the arrival of other SHIELD agents.
Although there are no surveillance cameras installed in Nick Fury's office, if nothing else, the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents in the building should know that he is in the office by now.
After all, he destroyed the helicarrier in the insight hangar and flew into the office carelessly.
If the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents in the Tri-Wing Building couldn't react like this, then they were too slow.
As Russell expected, it didn't take long before he saw a SHIELD agent whom he had never met before but was familiar to him.
Maria Hill!
One of Nick Fury's right-hand men, a level 9 SHIELD agent, and the commander of the first-generation Helicarrier.
If her fate does not change much, she will become the director of SHIELD in the future and obtain level 6 management authority in the superpower response department established in the future.
Maria Hill didn't come to the office alone.
Behind her, there is a team of heavily armed S.H.I.E.L.D. special forces.
After entering the office, the first thing Agent Hill saw was the headless body of Nick Fury.
After seeing Nick Fury's headless body, she first showed strong murderous intent.
Then, he suppressed the anger in his heart and looked up at Russell sitting behind the desk.
At this time, Russell sat in the director's seat that originally belonged to Nick Fury, and at the same time raised his feet and put them on the desk.
After seeing Russell's current attitude of not taking SHIELD seriously at all, Agent Hill took a few deep breaths and said slowly: "What exactly do you want to do?"
"You know exactly what I want to do."
"You should have also seen Zhenglian's press conference today."
Russell said calmly.
"You want to completely destroy SHIELD?"
Agent Hill continued to ask.
"There's no need to ask about things that everyone already knows."
Russell said casually.
"You have regained your face, are you really going to do it that thoroughly?"
Although she knew there was little hope, Maria Hill still asked the question.
"I didn't kill everyone in the building, so I was very kind."
According to his style when he was a killer, no one in the Three-wing Wings Building could leave alive.
"you……"
Although Russell's current attitude is very arrogant, Agent Hill knows that he is telling the truth.
Kill them all!
This is Russell's consistent style!
"Get out, don't make me kill you."
Russell didn't take Agent Hill's dissatisfaction to heart at all and said it very casually.
Although his tone was calm, Agent Hill knew he was not joking.
After thinking for a few seconds, Agent Hill, wearing a black combat uniform, left the office with the special forces team behind him.
After Agent Hill and others left, no one came to the office to disturb Russell.
Time passes little by little.
After almost ten minutes, the voice of No. 3 suddenly sounded.
"Sir, all the information in SHIELD's core database has been copied to the database at Zhenglian Headquarters. Do you want to upload it to the Internet now?"
"Don't worry! First hide the content about Zhenglian, and then look at what information Zhenglian can use. After confirming that the uploaded confidential information will not have any impact on Zhenglian and Octopus Monster Industry, you can The remaining ones are uploaded to the Internet.”
Russell said quickly.
"Okay, sir!"
The voice of No. 3 sounded again.
After giving instructions to No. 3, Russell had no intention of staying here anymore and took the silver-white instrument the size of a mobile phone on his desk back to the system space.
Then, it flew towards the White House, the symbol of the official institution of the United States.
SHIELD's affairs can come to an end for the time being, but it's obviously not just SHIELD that he needs to deal with now.
He will not forget the Cree people who are cooperating with American officials.
What the Kree planned to do, he didn't care.
But he wants to order these Kree warships!
Ronan the Accuser can't keep these battleships, he said so!
Not long after, Russell flew over the White House and looked down at this world-famous official residence.
"The American government, huh..."
After despising the American government in his heart, he landed directly on the grass outside the White House and walked towards the White House as if there was no one around.
…………
after an hour.
Russell left the White House with a calm expression and opened the portal back to Zhenglian headquarters.
Although a little time was wasted, the result of the negotiation was very satisfactory.
In other words, he got all the results he wanted.
After returning to the Zhenglian headquarters through the portal, he called Diana and others into the living room and told the results of his negotiations with the American officials.
The result of his negotiations with the American officials, to put it simply, was that he got back everything that Zhenglian and Octopus Industries originally owned.
In addition, he also received some compensation he wanted.
For example, in a practical sense, it is a concession.
That's right!
He got the concession from the United States, which claimed to be the most powerful country in the world. Moreover, the concession he wanted was different from other concessions in history. He wanted the entire New York.
Of course, in order for American officials to agree to this humiliating condition, he also made some concessions.
For example, let U.S. officials continue to have nominal jurisdiction over New York.
Nominally, New York is still a territory of the United States.
But in reality, all official power in New York will fall into the hands of Zheng Lian.
If we go into more detail, it all falls into Russell's hands.
Although this seemed a bit unbelievable, Russell convinced them very well and used practical actions to prove what it means to convince people with "reason".
Under Russell's irrefutable "reason", the American official could only agree to this shameful concession condition.
When Russell told the results of his negotiations with American officials, everyone, including Diana, showed incredible expressions.
How can this be?
How could American officials agree to such conditions?
"Besides convincing people with reason, what else did you say to them?"
As the person who knew Russell best, Diana immediately guessed that things were not as simple as Russell said.
"Nothing, I just told them that I have a planet suitable for human habitation and that I have some contact with other alien civilizations."
"I also gently reminded them at the end that if they don't agree, I will use the resources at hand to cooperate with other countries, so that other countries can receive support from extraterrestrial civilizations and help other countries enter the stage of interstellar civilization."
"At the same time, I am doing my best to suppress the United States and make it the most backward and poorest country on earth."
Russell said calmly.
When he finished speaking, everyone except Diana had puzzled expressions.
After looking at him in confusion for a few seconds, Kara asked first: "Why not just warn them and destroy the United States directly if they don't cooperate?"
After hearing Kara's inquiry, Gwen, Hulk and others nodded in agreement.
Obviously, they also wanted to know why Russell made the threat so complicated.
Russell laughed after hearing Kara's question.
Then he slowly said: "There is an old saying among flower growers, which is 'It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality', which means that it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality."
"I can indeed threaten them directly to destroy the United States, but this would be too easy for them."
"The United States has always prided itself on being the most powerful and richest country in the world. Directly destroying the United States can indeed have a strong deterrent effect, but it is not enough."
"Death can only be experienced once, and it is gone."
"But if it's something else, such as letting them fall from being a lofty billionaire to a penniless beggar, it will be a more painful thing for them than death."
After hearing this, Kara, Gwen and others finally understood why Russell did this.
Although this is a bit complicated, it has to be said that this can indeed make those in power in the United States experience a feeling more painful than death.
As for whether they will take their own lives, this is a question that does not need to be considered.
Those in power in the United States do not have such courage.
If they had the courage to die rather than surrender, they would never agree to the "concession" compensation proposed by Russell.
"In addition to these, I also ask them to cancel SHIELD. I estimate that in a few hours, we should see an official notification."
Russell continued.
Regarding this, Kara, Gwen and others were not surprised at all and nodded silently.
"That's pretty much it for the American officials and SHIELD. There's one last issue left to deal with."
Russell glanced at Diana and others before continuing: "American officials revealed the location of the Kerry battleship and the content of their cooperation."
"The United States officially does not have enough power to deal with these Crees, so we need to do this ourselves."
"My request is very simple, that is, let those Kree battleships become the property of Zhenglian. As for those Kree people, since they have come to Earth, there is no need to leave."
As soon as he finished speaking, Kara asked: "When will we set off?"
Kara is not an Earth human either, and she is curious about what the Kree people in this world look like.
She met the Chitauri and Vanguard during the Battle of New York, and left a very bad impression.
"Now!"
After saying that, Russell stood up and cast the portal magic in front of them.
Within a few seconds, a portal with a diameter of five meters appeared in the living room.
"Let's go together and put an end to this matter once and for all."
Russell said to Diana and others.
As soon as he finished speaking, Diana, Kara and others stood up and followed him into the portal.
…………
Edwards Air Force Base.
This is the largest air force base in the United States and the largest air force base in the world.
The base was established in the 1930s and was already one of the main training centers of the U.S. Air Force during World War II.
Although Edwards Air Force Base is old, it is still the flight test center of the American Space Force, and NASA's Dryden Flight Research Center is also here.
Russell had previously asked No. 3 to search for traces of Kree battleships in outer space, but no clues were found.
If those guys in the White House hadn't revealed the location of the Kerry warship, he would never have thought that the Kerry warship would be at Edwards Air Force Base.
Through the portal, Russell and his team came from Zhenglian headquarters in the suburbs of New York to Edwards Air Force Base on the bed of Rogers Dry Lake in California.
As soon as they appeared, they immediately attracted the attention of the base guards.
Russell ignored the airmen and looked towards the Kree battleship landing on the bed of Rogers Dry Lake.
Three frigates and one flagship, a total of four Kree battleships!
After seeing the Kree battleship, Russell did not hesitate and took the lead to fly towards the Kree battleship in the distance.
Within seconds, a fierce battle broke out on the Rogers Dry Lake bed.
To be precise, it was a one-sided battle.
Although the Kree battleship has energy weapons and performance that far exceeds the technological level of the earth, in front of Russell and others, the Kree battleship is not powerful at all.
The Kree warriors in the battleship used all their strength to resist the attack of Russell and others, but the huge gap in strength meant that they would not have any chance.
In less than half an hour, the battle came to an end.
Of the four Kree warships, only three ended up in Russell's hands.
One of the frigates was directly destroyed by Russell and others because of too fierce resistance.
Although the remaining two frigates and flagship also suffered a certain blow, their overall performance was not greatly affected.
After capturing these three Kree battleships, Russell had no intention of leaving immediately with the battleships.
After asking No. 3 to find a way to take over all control of the three battleships, he asked Hulk and Quicksilver to stay and took Diana and others back to the Zhenglian headquarters.
After returning to the headquarters, he sent instructions to Grendel who was far away in the Atlantic Ocean, asking Grendel to go to Edwards Air Force Base immediately.
In addition, he also ordered No. 3 to reopen the unmanned factory to produce various materials needed to repair or modify Kree warships.
After doing all this, he made a call to the higher-ups in the White House and asked them to hold a press conference to cancel SHIELD and restore the reputation of Zhenglian as soon as possible.
…………
Time flies.
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
The study room of Zhenglian headquarters.
Russell sat on the chair behind the desk and looked at Natasha, Cap and others in front of him.
Without official support, S.H.I.E.L.D. was disbanded without any suspense.
Not only that, in order to prevent SHIELD from resurrecting, Russell ordered No. 3 to upload the processed SHIELD confidential information to the Internet, allowing people to re-understand SHIELD, which prides itself on justice.
"If you have anything to say, just say it. My time is limited."
Russell said to Natasha.
As for Captain America Rogers and Hawkeye Barton next to Natasha, he directly ignored them, let alone Coulson, Agent Hill and others standing behind them.
"We want to negotiate a deal with Zhenglian?"
Natasha turned her head and glanced at Captain America, Hawkeye and the others, then looked at Russell and said slowly.
