บท 597: Chapter 401: Everything's Toxic Except Snakes (Part 2)_1
The incident of Hydra's assistance to the KGB in infiltrating the U.S. Congress had been exposed, causing America to face enormous pressure in the international opinion. Yet this country had never cared about international opinion. who they really cared was the KGB.
After learning that the KGB might have infiltrated Hydra, their enthusiasm for dealing with Hydra skyrocketed.
Hydra can undoubtedly wreak havoc domestically, but they can't associate with the KGB. They can infiltrate the Congress, bribe congressmen, steal intelligence, and even attempt treason, and I can turn a blind eye. But if they interact with the KGB, I must eradicate them completely.
That was the sentiment held by the majority of those seated on Capitol Hill, a severe allergy to the KGB for which there seemed to be little cure. Therefore, they sought to use S.H.I.E.L.D. as a sword to eliminate the Hydra under the pretext of purging the Hydra within the scope of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s duties, they actually intended to use the superpowers of S.H.I.E.L.D. to strike at the KGB.
At the same time, they could take advantage of the conflict between S.H.I.E.L.D., Hydra, and the KGB to weaken S.H.I.E.L.D., distract Nick Fury's energy, and prevent him from further expanding.
But will Nick allow them to achieve their wish while sitting on his throne?
Of course not, he was cooperating with both parties, and he was determined to manage both sides properly.
On one hand, he cooperated with Pierce, attacking certain forces of Hydra from within, arresting Hydra agents to deal with the current pressure. On the other hand, he dispatched Black Widow, the strongest agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., to engage in lethal communication besides life and death, causing trouble for Congress and other intelligence departments, and relieving pressure in the long run.
So, what is Shiller, who commanded Loki to chase Lady Hydra all over the Earth with Thor's hammer, going to do?
Apart from counting some absolutely not from the KGB, very reasonable, rewards other than money, he has not forgotten his most important plan.
Before, the personalities of DC approached Pierce and made a series of deals on the cruise ship. Shiller conspired with Pierce first, so Shiller's identity as Hydra was without a doubt. Then, he facilitated the cooperation between Nick and Pierce.
Upon Nick and Pierce's cooperation, someone was out of luck.
Apart from the Hydra led by Pierce in New York State, Hydra led by other forces in other regions, due to Pierce's betrayal, was hunted down by S.H.I.E.L.D.'s agents.
These Hydra, which was in the shadow of severe cleansing, suddenly found that there were no snake heads in the Americas that could be contacted. Previously silenced snake heads had not come out yet, Pierce was not answering the phone, Lady Hydra was caught, and the German Headquarters were in self-preservation due to the capture of Lady Hydra, all remaining silent.
So, whose phone could be reached now?
Of course, it's the Doctor.
After being promoted to the head of the Hydra in New York State, Shiller became the head of the Hydra in the Americas.
Apart from being able to catch more Hydra agents for different purposes, Shiller selected the Hydra agents who were easier to brainwash and good at persuading others.
Shiller did not use force to brainwash them. He only used his identity and position to spread a very credible book to them, and that was "Who is Helada?"
Some people might say that the content of this book is pure nonsense. Even if it's not, it's just a strange myth. Who would believe that?
But the lightning that struck Lady Hydra that day was not fake. Although, meteorologists around the world interpreted it as a special weather phenomenon caused by climate change, Hydra weren't fools. Which special weather phenomenon would deliberately chase Hydra? The rainclouds were equipped with identity recognition?
In the book "Who is Helada?", it was emphasized that the origin of Hydra and the creator Mundane Python was the deadly enemy of Thor. Now a prominent Hydra leader was being chased by lightning from the heavens, what does this indicate?
This part was not shown in the book, but according to the famous book reviewer Doctor in the book "Who is Helada?", Thor knew that the Mundane Python was his deadly enemy, and of course he wanted to eliminate it when the nine snake heads hadn't become one.
The despicable escape of Lady Hydra being chased by the falling lightning was a clear statement that if Hydra did not unite now, what awaited them was to be reduced to ashes under Thor's endless thunder and glory.
Yesterday, the great creator split into nine and became the most terrible Incubus of all the nations in the mundane world. But today, the final battle that belongs to him is approaching. They must unite as one and bring a horrific twilight to all gods.
This explanation seems a bit absurd, and most people don't believe it, but it's okay. Like Nick said, many people are not talking about idealism, but business. As long as it can make them profit, they can be believers of any religion.
The absences of Lady Hydra and Pierce gave hope to many snake heads who were originally under their control. They wanted to achieve a higher status and rule over others, but were hindered by the organization's rules and did not dare to take the initiative, fearing that they would be attacked by the group.
The ultimate answer to any sociological event can be found in human history. At the end of an empire's collapse, a single decree can trigger chaos. It's not the bullets that create war, but those who already have guns in their hands and manufacture bullets for them.
In a somewhat dim safe house, Grant looks at the body lying in a pool of blood. He reloads his gun, holding the pistol with both hands, steps over the body, and comes to a communication device.
The person on the other side has already heard the gunshots and the host of the safe house's screams, so the voice coming from the communicator is quivering, asking, "Whose side are you on? Why did you kill him?"
"Fool, the war has already started, I don't want to be Lady Hydra, don't want to be struck dead by lightning, nor be captured by those damned Russains..."
"We don't need nine heads now. Someone has to be eliminated. And you are still thinking about finding allies. You are just ridiculous..."
After reciting these lines, Grant hangs up the phone.
Grant Ward's assassination rings the bell for this grand Hydra battle royale. No one knows where the chaos started, but it just happened out of the blue.
Everyone shouts: "United we stand today!"
They all shout, "Before the great Helada returns, I will be the only voter," and then they turn on their former colleagues.
The situation quickly becomes chaotic. The sudden occurrence leaves everyone without clear targets. It's all a mess, and at the end of the day, it's unclear who they are retaliating against or who is retaliating against them.
Most of the people involved haven't read the book "Who is Hydra?" Their understanding of the doctrine is ambiguous rather than clear. Their views on Helada and Mundane Python vary significantly rather than being highly consistent.
However, there are many Hydras participating in this melee. Given enough base numbers, some people are bound to hit the jackpot.
So, one clear morning, Mundane Python, resting in the sea of the Earth awakened by soft knockings on its dormant soul.
Helada had been sleeping for a quite long time. After Odin got the prophecy that Mundane Python's final battle with the Thunder God would destroy Asgard, he threw Mundane Python, which was still a small snake then, into the ocean of Earth.
Since then, the snake has been growing bigger and bigger in Earth's ocean until it's long enough to wrap around the Earth. But because most of its body is illusory, it didn't fill up the ocean.
Just like most Cosmic Sorcerers, Helada was born out of the origin power of the cosmos. This serpent, linking its head and tail, symbolizes the cycle of the universe. It's incredibly powerful, said to be stronger than Thunder God Thor.
At the same time, it's also an intelligent creature. Although it's still a Chaotic Creature, it has a much more efficient brain.
Despite that, a just-awakened Helada couldn't understand why people were calling its name. Not just calling its name, Helada could feel faint waves of faith filling its body.
As mentioned before, humans hold a unique position in the cosmos. Their faith can provide more power to the Cosmic Sorcerer.
Therefore, even though true believers in Mundane Python as Helada are not many, those who somewhat believe are also believers. Regardless of why they believe, they do believe, providing Helada with not a small amount of power.
Helada harbored a deep hatred for Odin, who had thrown it into Midgard, and it had long wanted revenge. But the newly gained power was still not enough to help it defeat Odin. It was clear about this and desperately needed more power.
So, it began to study the origin of this sudden faith, only to find that somehow, during its thousands of years of sleep, there were still people who knew it existed and even believed in it.
Helada intended to go to Earth to see what was going on with these few believers. However, it knew that Earth was also Odin's territory. With its current power, if it caused too much commotion, it might not withstand a lightning bolt from Odin.
Just as it was trying to sneak into Earth, suddenly, a mysterious communication was connected to it.
A pleasant customer service voice said, "Hello, this is the Sanctuary of the Nine Realms. We are the only cosmic creature services organization in the Nine Realms. We offer a variety of services, including inter-dimensional liaison, agent recruitment, power enhancement, cross-dimensional revenge, and more...
