Trident headquarters.
In Nick Fury's office.
"How many people are left?"
Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, Fury seemed to be thinking about it for the last time.
After today's incident spreads, S.H.I.E.L.D will definitely be disbanded.
There is no need for an agent organization whose secrets are fully disclosed to exist.
After knowing everything about S.H.I.E.L.D, the countries of the world will not allow such an organization that has been thoroughly infiltrated by HYDRA to continue to exist.
Therefore, this time is probably the last time he can stand in this position to look at the scenery.
From now on, there will be no more chances!
"There are about 300 agents left on the headquarters side."
Behind him, Hawkeye gently wiped his own bow and sat aside, speaking silently.
"It's three hundred, there are only three hundred left!"
Hearing this number, Fury couldn't help showing bitterness.
There were more than 6,000 agents stationed in Trident headquarters all year round!
And now, there are only more than three hundred left!
Fury doesn't know how many agents who still have justice in their hearts died in the battle just now.
Even if he generously estimates, the number of proper S.H.I.E.L.D agents will not be more than 600.
Compared with the number of 6,000 agents, it is only one-tenth!
In the dignified Trident headquarters, nine out of ten agents are HYDRA.
This is really an extremely ironic thing.
Even the Trident headquarters are like this, Fury can't imagine the situation in other divisions.
God knows how many of S.H.I.E.L.D's agents are truly loyal to S.H.I.E.L.D?
Three thousand?
Or five thousand?
Anyway, there won't be as many as ten thousand!
Originally, Fury still had some doubts about his decision.
But after hearing this number, the last bit of doubt in his heart disappeared.
S.H.I.E.L.D...let it go away with today's fight!
From now on, he is only the director of S.A.B.E.R, not the director of S.H.I.E.L.D anymore!
The office door opens.
Natasha Romanoff, who just came back, walks in from the outside along with Steve and Hill.
As for Sam and Luke?
They are gone.
After all, the battle is over, and it's time for them to take a good rest.
However, their performance today has been recorded by those present, and there will be a seat for them among the Avengers in the future!
Before leaving, Hill also gave the two an appearance fee.
Not much. Just five hundred thousand dollars.
For S.H.I.E.L.D, which was once a big business, this is not even a drop in the bucket.
But now.....…
They are really short on funds.
Even this money was transferred out before S.H.I.E.L.D's secrets were made public.
Otherwise, they wouldn't even be able to figure out the money.
But for S.H.I.E.L.D, 500,000 may be a small amount of money, but for Sam and Luke, who have never saved more than 50,000, it is already a huge sum of money.
So both of them are quite satisfied.
What Sam wants more is the opportunity to fight side by side with the captain.
He is a soldier and a fighter.
He needs a battlefield!
Otherwise, he can only go to the veterans' nursing home to continue giving lectures.
"Sent people back?"
Seeing Natasha Romanoff coming back, Fury also turned around and said.
Natasha Romanoff nodded, and looked at Hawkeye, who was sitting aside, with a look of inquiry in his eyes.
"We only have three hundred agents left." Hawkeye said.
Natasha Romanoff suddenly realized, no wonder she found Fury had a strange expression as soon as she came in, he seemed very angry, but also a little lonely.
"Let's all sit down and talk, we're leaving here soon, and we won't be coming back in the future."
Fury sat down first, and asked everyone to sit down as well.
He will not be the director of S.H.I.E.L.D in the future, so these people in front of him will naturally no longer be his subordinates.
The friendship between them is still there.
He believes that if he needs help in the future, they will not refuse him.
Everyone sat down.
"What do you guys think about that Spider-Woman?" Fury asked.
"The strength is very strong, but she is still a child." Steve spoke first.
"She seems to have a new skill, I didn't seen her use it last time." Hawkeye said.
He had seen Spider-Woman in the battle against the lizard monster before, and at that time she didn't have the strength that she showed today.
If she had such strength back then, she wouldn't need that "Superman" to make a move.
"She is a kind little girl, but she has some little secrets of her own." Natasha Romanoff concluded.
As for Hill, she made no comments at all.
The nature of her original work is different from that of Natasha Romanoff and the others, and Hill also knew that Fury didn't mean to ask her to answer the question just now.
So she just listened and didn't speak.
"What the hell are you trying to say, Fury?"
At this time, Steve couldn't help asking.
He was originally the kind of person who likes to go straight to the point. He really can't adapt to guys like Fury who like to talk around the corner.
Maybe that's why, when he worked in S.H.I.E.L.D before, his relationship with Fury got worse and worse?
The two of them are not the kind of characters that can get along well!
Fury glanced at Steve, and then said, "The Ability she used today, Hawkeye, don't you think it looks familiar?"
Hearing this, Hawkeye thought for a moment and nodded.
"It's really a bit like the Superman's Ability back then." He said.
"Superman? The one who was last seen in New York City?" Steve asked.
Hawkeye explained to him, and then Steve understood why Hawkeye said that the abilities of the two people are very similar.
"I suspect that this Superman is the mysterious man who appeared in the sun before. This man is very powerful! He is also very dangerous!"
Fury said, "Before I asked Natasha Romanoff to investigate this man and find out his whereabouts, but there has always been no leads."
"Until today!"
As he said that, Fury also looked at Natasha Romanoff.
"Have you found anything?" He asked.
Natasha Romanoff nodded, and said with a serious expression, "I suspect a person."
"Who?"
Everyone in the office looked over.
"Roddy, a rich second generation, playboy." Natasha Romanoff said a name.
"Have you checked?" Fury asked again.
Natasha Romanoff nodded, "I checked, there is no problem, but he is the most possible suspect."
"Give your opinion."
Natasha Romanoff nodded and continued, "This person is Spider-Woman's boyfriend.
The two officially confirmed their relationship last night.
There was a music festival in New York City last night, and Spider-Woman also had a show.
This Roddy confessed to her at the music festival.
Yes, and then the two went back to Roddy's place that night."
"While Spider-Woman has never shown any Ability similar to what she has today, and she is very excited today, obviously getting this new Ability for the first time."
"So I suspect that Roddy has something to do with her getting this new Ability!"
"It's very possible that Roddy gave her this ability."
Natasha Romanoff finished quickly.
But these are just her own guesses.
There is no real evidence!
At this time, Hawkeye on the side suddenly asked a little puzzled, "You mean, after what happened to that Roddy last night, Spider-Woman got a new ability? Or did she inherit it from Roddy? Or a copy? "
"..."
'I didn't say that!'
Hawkeye, when did you become so indecisive?
'What I mean is that Roddy gave Spider-Woman such Ability in some other way.
How come your mouth is full of trash?'
Others in the office also looked at Hawkeye with strange expressions on their faces.
It's not a day or two for these people to know Hawkeye.
But they hadn't discovered that this guy had such a brain circuit before.
Is it because there is no constraint on the position.
So he let himself go?
"Is there something wrong with what I said?"
Hawkeye looked at them with a puzzled expression.
"No, but you should still hold off on your opinions."
Natasha Romanoff shook her head and said.
Hawkeye: "???"
Not to mention Hawkeye's strange idea, although what Natasha Romanoff said just now has no evidence, but this Roddy is indeed suspicious.
Worth watching!
"I'm not your boss anymore, I shouldn't have said these words."
Fury said, "But I still want to remind you to pay attention to this guy named Roddy in the future"
"He may be dangerous!"
Steve shook his head.
Is it necessarily dangerous to have an Ability?
Steve disagrees with Fury.
But right now he doesn't want to argue with Fury anymore, since S.H.I.E.L.D has fallen anyway.
They will probably seldom see each other again in the future.
At this time, let's make a good impression on each other.
The chain reaction of S.H.I.E.L.D's downfall is bigger than anyone imagined.
The whole world is watching this event!
Not only because of the resurgence of HYDRA, but also because of the various dark secrets revealed in the secrets disclosed by S.H.I.E.L.D.
In the following period of time, the international community was in turmoil.
Some countries issued declarations one after another, declaring that they need an official explanation from the United States.
Although S.H.I.E.L.D is backed by the Security Council.
But in fact, you can tell by looking at it, where is the headquarters of S.H.I.E.L.D?
In the USA.
Who are the top executives of S.H.I.E.L.D?
People of the United States!
So it is not difficult to understand which organization S.H.I.E.L.D belongs to.
It is said that it is controlled by the Security Council, but in fact...
S.H.I.E.L.D is serving the United States more!
In the blink of an eye, it has been three months since the collapse of S.H.I.E.L.D and the complete bankruptcy of HYDRA's insight plan.
Over the past three months there has been a campaign to eradicate HYDRA around the world.
And the ones who bore the brunt of the main force were the Avengers!
Even Thor came from Asgard during this time.
Thor came not only because the Avengers needed him, but also because he wanted to visit his girlfriend.
Compared with Thor and Jane Foster, those so-called long-distance relationships on Earth are really childish.
From Earth to Asgard, how far is the distance between the two?
Let's put it this way, if it weren't for Bifrost, the two of them would never see each other in this lifetime!
After all, Jane Foster is just an ordinary human being, and her lifespan is only so long.
And there are no spaceships capable of space jumps on the earth.
As for Asgard?
To be honest, the development of this civilization is really strange.
Obviously the technological development in the universe is not low, and Asgard is a well-known civilization in the entire universe.
But Asgard doesn't have its own spaceship!
It seems that without Bifrost, they would not be able to run out of their own land.
It's really weird.
Not to mention HYDRA's misfortune over the past three months, and how the Avengers have rallied together.
The past three months have been full of little surprises for Roddy!
On the one hand, the relationship between him and Gwen developed very smoothly.
Gwen would come to Roddy's house to stay for a few days from time to time, and occasionally Roddy would go to Gwen's house for a sit-down.
Gwen's mother has always been happy with him.
It's just that Director George never smiled at him.
But the attitude is also much better than at the beginning, which can be regarded as an improvement.
On the other hand, Roddy signs in every day, and also obtains many interesting Mutant abilities.
Most of them were decomposed by him, and used to improve those useful mutant abilities.
But there are also some individual ones that he kept.
It includes an alpha-level Mutant Ability, and two beta-level Mutant Abilities!
A total of three, not too many, not too few.
The main reason is that although some Abilities look good, there are side effects of one kind or another.
Roddy didn't want to become weird.
So he gave up those Abilities and decomposed them.
But what he can keep are Alpha level Mutant Abilities that don't have any side effects or there are only some minor flaws!
