Chapter 64: The coveted errand

United States, Washington, S.H.I.E.L.D. Trident Base.

Represented by Nick Fury, half of them are in excitement and joy; represented by Alexander Pierce, the other half are in confusion and panic.

dong dong dong...

The door of the SHIELD Director's office was knocked on, and Pierce responded lightly, "Come in."

Fury pushed open the door wearily and walked to Pierce.

Recently, he has been busy cooperating with the army to destroy the Hydra base every day, and is also responsible for capturing and interrogating Hydra members. He hasn't slept well for a long time.

Thanks to his dark skin, he couldn't see his two panda eyes.

"Director Pierce, do you have anything to do with me?"

"I have a few small things to trouble you, but don't worry, you sit down first."

Pierce stood up, pulled a stool over for Fury, and said with a smile,

"Agent Fury, you have done a lot of credit these days. You have worked so hard recently. I really didn't see you wrong, no matter how annoying things are, as long as they are in your hands, you can quickly, resolved efficiently.”

"Director Pierce, you've won the prize. These are all things I should do and are my share."

"Hahaha, don't be humble. If this matter is left to others, there are really few people who can do it as well as it is now.

All of this is because of your shrewdness and ability to earn so much credit for yourself. "

Fury smiled and didn't answer. Pierce said in a half-joking tone,

"The reward for you in the bureau will come down soon, congratulations to you Agent Fury, you are about to increase your salary.

Your current level is already very high. In a few years, I will be older, and I think the next director's seat can only be handed over to you. "

Fury stroked his hair and smiled humbly, but still didn't answer.

Pierce also put aside his joking attitude, coughed to show seriousness, and then continued:

"I called you here today, but there are actually two things.

Just now, the president of the Security Council called. She said that other countries have sent messages asking us to provide the information obtained from the interrogation of Hydra members, especially the content of Hydra bases in other countries.

I have already promised her that you will sort out the relevant information later and have someone send it to the president. "

"It's not difficult, the materials are all ready-made, and they can be sorted and sent soon."

Fury nodded, agreed, and then asked,

"What about the other thing?"

Pierce pretended to be happy and replied with a smile:

"Another thing, an easier beauty job! Agent Frey, do you know Henry Pym?"

Of course Fury knew about Henry Pym, because Fury had used his authority quietly to view a lot of secret information inside S.H.I.E.L.D.

But Fury didn't want to show it. So he replied:

"Dr. Pym are you talking about? I know this person, but not much. I only know that he was also a member of S.H.I.E.L.D., but he left for unknown reasons."

"You're right, Dr. Pym left S.H.I.E.L.D. three years ago. You were still in the military at that time, so you don't know the cause and effect of this incident.

Back then, he suspected that someone inside S.H.I.E.L.D. was secretly trying to replicate his research results, the Pym particle, and then he left S.H.I.E.L.D. angrily and founded Pym Technology Company in San Francisco. "

"Is it really someone who tried to steal his research results without Dr. Pym's consent?"

"Nothing, all this is because Pym is too sensitive, which caused a misunderstanding."

Pierce didn't want to tell the truth, so he casually found a reason to perfunctory. Then he continued,

"In the past few years, we have been suspecting that Pym is secretly developing weapons in the company, which may pose a great threat to the security of our country.

But we haven't found any direct evidence, so we can only send people to secretly monitor him and his company.

But Pym is not an ordinary person, he has already figured out the identity of the person in the bureau. Therefore, the bureau decided to send a new group of people to set up a task force to carry out this task.

There is no danger in this mission, because Dr. Pym does not dare to tear his face with S.H.I.E.L.D. now. But if this task is accomplished, the credit is great.

It just so happens that you have made a great contribution recently, and based on this, I applied for this coveted opportunity for you to lead the task force to San Francisco to carry out the mission.

Fury, I have high hopes for you. You must take this task seriously and strive to complete it well. "

After saying this, Pierce couldn't help but say that, using the excuse of having a meeting to prepare for later, he kicked Fury out of the office.

Fury responded nonchalantly and left the office. But in the corridor, there were already many guesses in his heart.

Pierce entrusted Fury with this task, ostensibly for Fury's future consideration, and let him take the credit for nothing.

However, Fury is very clear that since three years have passed, S.H.I.E.L.D. has not found the so-called evidence. By the time Fury goes to San Francisco, the task may not be complete in three or five years.

So, it's obviously that Pierce wants to drive him out of the headquarters of the Washington Trident, and doesn't want him to contact the core mission of S.H.I.E.L.D.

But why did Pierce do this? !

Fury suddenly had an unbelievable guess in his heart but even if his guess is true, he can't do anything right now.

So, Fury shook his head helplessly and went back to the dormitory to pack his luggage.

Everything needs to be discussed in the long run and will be discussed later.

……

Three months later, in New York City, in the basement of El Tech, Leo's private laboratory.

Leo was wearing a potbellied steel battle armor, he turned the armor with difficulty, then made a pose, and said to a spherical object one meter high by the basement wall:

"Stim, what do you think of this look?"

"Om! Ugly, Master, this look looks really ugly."

Leo: ...

Stim is an auxiliary artificial intelligence transformed by Leo according to the body of Dr. Zola's "autonomous conscious robot". The processing chip it uses is the El-0 chip, the same chip in Dr. Zola's robot body.

However, Leo initialized all emotional modules inside the robot and deleted a lot of memory banks.

Therefore, although Stim can speak and think like Dr. Zola, he does not have the emotions and memories of Dr. Zola.

"The shape of this armor is so ugly. It's not because you are too big to fit into the armor. All operations require me to manually control it!"

Leo was too choked to speak by Stim's straightforward rant, and finally forcibly threw the pot back on Stim.

According to Leo's original plan, what he was going to manufacture was the armor of the Mark series in the Iron Man movie.

That kind of armor can both fly and shoot, so it looks handsome.

But when he actually went to the actual operation, he realized that building that kind of armor is not as simple as it looks in the movie.
