Nick took the information, looked at the words on the information coldly with one eye, and then threw it aside like garbage.
"Why do the politicians in the Security Council always accommodate those vampires? Do you know that in just thirty years, the number of vampires has tripled! Do they wait until vampires are all over the world before they get tough on those blood-sucking bed bugs? Security Council His weakness has led to the emergence of extreme radicals among vampires, and problems will arise sooner or later if this continues!"
Nick Fury doesn't like vampires, and he has always advocated being tough on these aliens as early as when he was an agent. He even personally presided over and planned a vampire extermination plan. But Pierce, who was still director at the time, did not approve it. After he became director, he improved the plan again, but this time the Security Council rejected him.
"Of course I know something will go wrong. I knew it when I was the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., but what's the use of knowing it? Those people above don't believe it!" Speaking of this, Pierce is also very depressed. He hates vampires 100%. Even every time he thought about how disgusting a thing like him was living under the same sky, he felt numb all over. But the problem is that he is different from other SHIELD directors.
He is a director who connects the past and the future. His predecessor was Peggy Carter. This strong woman not only had outstanding abilities, but also had the status of the widow of Captain America. This status gave her endless benefits, even if the U.S. government faced her When you do something, you have to give in a little bit. This is the fault of the U.S. government. They have held Captain America up so high that even now, many Americans believe that the United States can defeat Japan and that Captain America's role is crucial.
During the war, they inspired people, and in order to attract more war donations, Captain America was promoted by the US government as a living saint, and everything about him was perfect. After Captain America was buried in the Arctic with the Red Skull in order to save New York, Captain America immediately became a god.
This is something the U.S. government did not expect, and since everyone is dead, it is too late for them to weaken the prestige of Captain America. The living will never compete with the dead for reputation. Regardless of whether it is the East or the West, if a person dies, he is basically invincible. Especially Westerners, they care about this especially. Many people with mixed reputations will receive higher evaluations after death than they did in life. This may be the generosity of the living to the dead. After all, the dead will never compete with the living for power no matter what.
And the only heir to such a large political legacy is Peggy Carter. This caused Peggy Carter to become very special, and Peggy Carter also took advantage of this and strengthened S.H.I.E.L.D.
After Peggy Carter retired and Howard Stark died, SHIELD's position was quite embarrassing. At this time, Pierce had to make a lot of compromises, otherwise SHIELD wouldn't be where it is today.
"Something has to be compromised, Nick. It's out of our control..."
Nick Fury nodded expressionlessly. I don’t know if he really agreed.
Pierce didn't know, and didn't want to know. All he knew was that Nick would take care of it, and that was enough. As for ability, Pierce believed 200% in Nick Fury, and sometimes he even had a headache because Nick's ability was too strong.
…
"Sir, the call has been connected. You can start the conversation."
Maria Hill walked up behind Nick Fury holding a tablet.
Nick Fury finally came back from his thoughts, but he did not immediately ask Hill to bring up the screen, but asked thoughtfully: "Do you think S.H.I.E.L.D.'s level 10 authority is too much?" Already?"
Hill was expressionless and didn't speak. In fact, based on his understanding of his superior, Hill knew very well that Nick was not asking for her opinion. The Director of SHIELD has never been one to need help with his thinking.
Furthermore, there are only two Level 10 authorities in the entire S.H.I.E.L.D., one is the Director himself, and the other is the former Director Pierce. He now says that level 10 has too many permissions, and his meaning is obvious. The suspicious current director clearly wants to strip the former director of his influence on S.H.I.E.L.D. This kind of boss-level political struggle is not something that a little person like her can get involved in. Although she is already a level nine agent... she is still a little person compared to the two people who truly master all the secrets of SHIELD.
Nick is a jerk a lot of the time and doesn't trust anyone, including Hill. Hill knows this. But Hill felt that such a bastard might indeed be the most suitable candidate to become the director of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Sure enough, Nick didn't ask Hill to give an answer. He asked Hill to connect to the screen. A thin old man appeared in the screen. His eyes were extremely sharp. Even though he was across the screen, Nick still didn't like the look in his eyes.
"Victor, I didn't expect you to be alive."
Nick had no respect at all for this old vampire who had ruled vampires for nearly ten centuries.
"Believe me, Nick Fury, I can live for a long time. Even if you and your descendants are all dead, I will still be alive." The old man also did not want this dark-skinned one-eyed dragon to survive Victor's nearly thousand years of life. , his attitude towards black people has always been extremely contemptuous. He felt that black people were not even capable of being slaves.
"Then you will be disappointed. My descendants died yesterday, hundreds of millions of them." Nick Fury was not angry that the old man cursed him to cut off his descendants. In fact, he had no intention of having children since he started this line of work. , he doesn’t even need love. So he played a very bad joke to the old man.
"Niggers are really vulgar."
"Are you being racist?"
"Yes, can you sue me?" The old man's irony was also very sharp. In fact, as a vampire who has lived for thousands of years, Nick was far behind when it came to talking nonsense.
"I will remember to call the police." Nick was not angry. When he first entered the industry thirty years ago, the discrimination was even worse. He's been through bad times. "Let's get down to business now. I need you vampire bugs to stay in the dark corners. Your current behavior has crossed the line."
"My people are being slaughtered!"
"You started that too. Your people are killing people all over Chicago! Even blatantly! I don't want to repeat this bullshit, you know, Victor. I'm not interested in the so-called peace treaty, so don't give me a reason!"
Nick's one eye stared at Victor fiercely. He really didn't like the treaty very much. But he also understood that it was necessary for that treaty to exist. There are extremely complex reasons for signing this treaty. During World War I, vampires came to the United States, and they didn't just immigrate here with empty words. What keeps the treaty alive is the power in the hands of vampires, which is enough to cause a shocking massacre. For this reason the government maintains a balance with the vampires.
But he still doesn't like it, so he has been paying attention to vampires over the years. He already has some ideas, but these ideas must be carried out secretly. As for the Security Council? Who cares about them? As long as the outcome is good, everything will be fine.
"Blood debt must be paid with blood!" Victor's response was simple. He knew what the cause of this incident was, and that bastard Dickon Faith was going to do something bad sooner or later. But this is not the reason why other vampire families in Chicago were massacred. Regarding the murder of Dickon Faith's men, Victor did not intend to care at all. If they cross the line, they are no longer within the protection of the Presbyterian Church. If they die, they will die. But what does this have to do with the other vampires in Chicago?
If Victor and the Presbyterian Church did not respond to this massacre, the Presbyterian Church's influence would suffer an unprecedented blow.
"Then try it!" Nick would not give in. If the vampires took the lead in provoking a war, then he wouldn't mind beating them up first. As for the all-out war where everything is fought to the death, well, it's not that Nick looks down on them, these vampires don't have the guts.
Nick's views on vampires are consistent with Kai's. Once a full-scale war breaks out, the vampires will definitely die! They don't dare!
"Two people." Victor really had no idea of a full-scale war, so his target was simple, the two murderers.
"What?" Nick asked knowingly.
"Blade and Hannibal, we only need the two of them!" Victor's idea was simple. He wanted blood repayment and had never thought of expanding the deal.
"No! I know very well the fighting power of the two of them. Once a more intense conflict breaks out between you, who can guarantee that it will not cause greater damage!" The director's logic is very simple. It is impossible for me to agree to whatever you say.
"Deal!" Victor also knows human nature. If it doesn't make sense, then trade.
Nick Fury just looked at Victor quietly on the screen. Wait for him to continue.
"A piece of information! About the statue of the God of War."
Only then did Nick Fury pay attention.
"That statue was stolen from the Louvre by SHIELD. We know this very well," Victor said.
Nick didn't refute. Others had made it so clear. To deny it would be to insult the intelligence of both parties. And Nick and SHIELD have no compunction about this. Quite simply, in their view, it is their duty to store and preserve such dangerous items. No need to explain to anyone.
"Now there are people coming to the United States looking for this statue. And they are very difficult people."
"Who?" Nick indeed had no information about this. In the entire Europe, Britain has always been the weakest area for SHIELD. First, there is the special relationship between Britain's international status and the United States. Britain is the most important ally of the United States, and they are indeed more careful in dealing with their allies. Second, it’s because of Kingsman. The history of this veteran spy organization far exceeds that of SHIELD. It can even be said that if we have to divide the sphere of influence.
SHIELD is responsible for the two American continents plus Oceania, Southeast Asia, India, etc., while Kingsman firmly occupies part of Europe and North Africa. As for China, both organizations are in a blank state. Although the Russian side is better than the Chinese side, it is just like that.
So the Templar Church and Kingsman sent Catherine to the United States, and SHIELD had no idea.
"Deal!" Victor emphasized again.
Nick thought about it for a moment. In fact, he didn't think about it at all. Does Blade have anything to do with Hannibal? No! They had turned down a call from S.H.I.E.L.D. Why doesn't Nick do it for his own benefit if he sells others? It doesn't require SHIELD to pay anything.
Don't overestimate the moral integrity of agents. Those who can only shoot with a gun are not serious agents. So Nick betrayed Blade and Hannibal without hesitation.
"make a deal!"
"Temple Witch - Catherine." Catherine's nickname is quite interesting. Generally speaking, the words "Temple" and "Temple" would never be used together to describe a person.
Nick was stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise: "She...is still alive?"
This legendary figure is at least over a hundred years old!
"She is living well, at least until you die, this woman will never die." Victor once again mocked the short life of mortals.
"I need her detailed information, remember all of it! I need to know when she came to the United States, how she came, and where she is going. I need to know it all!" SHIELD is not an ordinary government department. They know a lot of secrets. Otherwise, the statue would not have been stolen. So Nick knew exactly how powerful this woman was.
"I don't know." Victor said calmly.
"Victor!!" Nick was angry, or so it seemed.
"Nick Fury, stop acting. You know how important the information I gave you is. And do you think I will know things that even SHIELD doesn't know about?" Victor said and planned to end the call.
Nick Fury was just pretending. He did want all of Catherine's information and intelligence, but it was more of a test. If Victor could get information that even SHIELD couldn't get, then he would need Increased vampire threat level. They have an intelligence network that even SHIELD doesn't know about! This is terrible.
"Wait! I promised you that you can take revenge, but you should know the appropriateness! If I see the news happening...you will be ready for SHIELD's sweep!"
Victor heard Nick Fury's warning, paused, and finally said: "I will send the Death Walker."
Nick Fury nodded silently. "Remember your promise, otherwise your Death Walker will really die!"
Snap, Nick Fury turned off the communication.
"Katherine..." Nick Fury touched his chin and fell into thought. Hill next to him was silent the whole time, as if he didn't exist.
…
"F**K!" Bobby drove an injured old black man to the address Dean gave him. Dean told him that this was where the two brothers settled in Chicago. But when he drove the car there, he felt that either Dean was joking with him or that he had misremembered the address.
"Hey! Bobby, although I always think I'm fierce, it doesn't mean I can keep bleeding like this! I need a doctor, you bastard! Or, you have wanted to kill me a long time ago!" Although the old black man was shot in the abdomen, But he still had the heart to joke.
"What the hell, Rufus, can't you be quiet? You've been shot, why can't you keep your mouth shut?!"
Bobby called Dean while replying to his old friend.
"Hey! Dean, where the hell are you? I can't find...what? Did you see us? Where are you? Come in, Fuck, this is..." Before Bobby could finish, the manor's The door opened automatically. "Walter... God... don't tell me, these two boys finally got rich?"
But now was not the time to care about this. After all, his old friend had lost his voice and it seemed that he was really going far away.
Bobby immediately accelerated and rushed into the magnificent manor in front of him.
