A mechanical master of a certain manga

Cairo is the capital of Egypt and at this point in time has not yet reached the point of complete economic collapse. But the atmosphere in Cairo has been quite inappropriate recently, and heavily armed soldiers can often be seen patrolling the streets.

However, these soldiers did not seem to be government armed forces. They did not even wear any identifiable insignia, and they had no idea where they were from. In fact, they were members of Hydra, a force directly under Whitehall, and their last trump card.

Ever since he was attacked by the Apocalypse Legion, one-third of his stronghold was removed, and then he started an all-out war with Alexander Pierce, Whitehall's life has become increasingly difficult.

There are many branches of Hydra, and the S.H.I.E.L.D. force controlled by Alexander Pierce is obviously the most powerful one. Whitehall also thought that if he had the evidence that Pierce betrayed him, he would be able to get the support of the Senate and call on the power of other Hydra branches to help him stabilize the war situation, even leaving Pierce injured.

However, Whitehall underestimated Pierce's power.

He actually managed to get the Council of Elders to remain neutral in the fight between the two of them despite the fact that there was solid evidence of betraying his companions.

In this case, neutrality actually means siding with Pierce. It is impossible for the isolated Whitehall to fight against S.H.I.E.L.D. after the veil of mystery is torn apart. Therefore, Whitehall decisively shrunk all his forces and came to Egypt.

Whitehall chose to come to Cairo because he had recently made a major discovery. A legendary and extremely powerful mutant sleeps beneath this ancient city. In ancient stories, this mutant seems to be able to change the world. He even built miraculous buildings like the pyramids by himself.

It sounded quite nonsense, but after making bold assumptions and careful verification, Whitehall discovered that there were many clues to this legend.

In the secret base in Cairo, Whitehall pinched his eyebrows, trying to dispel the fatigue. These days have really made him physically and mentally exhausted.

"Bakshi, is there any news from SHIELD?" Whitehall asked his most trusted subordinate.

"They are still tracking the information we left in Europe. This time we dropped a lot of things, which is enough for them to check for a long time. However, in this way, most of our strength has been consumed, and I'm afraid we have nothing left. We can no longer engage in head-to-head confrontation," Bakshi told Whitehall.

Egypt basically has nothing to do with the European Union, so this trick of cutting off the gecko's tail is quite smooth. He managed to escape SHIELD's surveillance in a short period of time, and it seems that the Apocalypse Legion, which caused him heavy losses, can't be found for the time being. to his traces.

However, the broken tail was enough to make Whitehall feel heartbroken for a long time. If there was no breakthrough on the Egyptian side, he would have to consider whether to surrender to Pierce.

Since he is also a member of the Hydra organization, Whitehall can probably avoid death and spend the rest of his life in prison.

However, Whitehall never expected that he would be followed by some mechanical beetles the size of ants, and his every move would be completely monitored by the Fire Source Company.

"How did the excavation find the pyramid site?" Whitehall asked.

"There are five suspected locations, and three have been eliminated now. One of the last two must be our target."

"Very well. If you find anything, please notify me immediately."

As soon as Whitehall finished his instructions, he heard a low thunder sound.

"At this time of year, there is a thunderstorm in Cairo." Whitehall felt a little surprised and quickly opened the window and looked at the sky.

It was clear that the sky was clear just now, but suddenly there were dark clouds that were so thick that they completely covered the sun. It was obviously noon when the sun was shining in the sky, but it suddenly became dark, and it was almost impossible to see anything nearby.

The clouds were too dark and thick, making Whitehall feel really depressed.

It stands to reason that Whitehall, who is nearly 100 years old, has extensive experience and has experienced big scenes like World War II, so he should not be affected by the mere weather.

But Whitehall looked at the dark clouds that were so low that they seemed to be within reach, and he always felt that this was a heavy hammer on his head, which could Rorschach at any time, and then smash him to pieces.

Just when he wanted to shake this weird feeling out of his head, he found that the dark clouds were constantly changing shapes, seemingly slowly forming an overwhelming and ferocious face.

"What is going on?" Whitehall said in shock.

Although this question was asked to Bakshi, Whitehall himself knew that no one could know the answer.

However, the other party did not let him think slowly, and this grimace that seemed to be hundreds of kilometers in diameter gradually condensed and took shape. The originally vague shape gradually solidified and turned into an ice crystal mask.

What was even more shocking was that the mask actually made a deafening sound.

"Daniel Whitehall, and all members of the Hydra organization in Cairo, listen. You will have forty-eight hours to put down your weapons and leave the city to surrender. Otherwise, my army will kill you all after the countdown is over. Crush.

"If you plan to resist, then please resist with desperate determination, and maybe try to hold on for a few more minutes.

"Hahaha"

The glass window in front of Daniel Whitehall was shattered, along with the glasses on his nose. The terrifying sound just now actually shattered 90% of the glass in Cairo.

Such power is just to issue a warning.

"Who is this guy?" Whitehall gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, not even noticing that his nails dug into his palms and blood flowed out.

It was also a question that no one could answer, and Bakshi was even more shocked than Whitehall. He fell to the ground and couldn't even speak.

After issuing this declaration of war, the terrifying ice mask instantly shattered and turned into countless hailstones, falling on the city of Cairo.

But these hailstones strangely did not injure any civilians. Instead, they fell on several secret Hydra strongholds in Cairo as if they had eyes. Just a hailstorm caused Hydra's non-combat attrition to reach hundreds of people.

Although this attack did not cause Hydra to lose much combat effectiveness, it was tantamount to telling Whitehall that the other party knew Hydra's arrangements well.

Facing this kind of enemy, Whitehall's heart was sinking. He felt that he had encountered an enemy far more terrifying than SHIELD and the Apocalypse Legion. And he didn't even know the other person's name.

In the desert not far from Cairo, Rorschach closed the huge space door around him and retracted the metal building that towered into the clouds like a lighthouse into the mirror space.

The controller was just manufactured this time, and it was the first time I used it, and the effect was better than expected. Not to mention anything else, the consumption of fire source energy alone was saved by 90%. It only took a mere 50,000 fire source energy to complete the weather change just now.

More importantly, this thing can also store a total of 300,000 energy in advance, so others can use it even if Rorschach is not around.

Luo Xia was feeling good about himself. The gesture he had made just now was so handsome that even he couldn't help but feel proud of himself. But he heard Sarah say to him: "Master, why are you declaring war with such a big fanfare? Wouldn't it be better to just launch a surprise attack?"

"I said, this battle should show our prestige and let the whole world know that we are not to be trifled with. Therefore, the higher the profile, the better the effect." Luo Xia explained.

However, Sarah continued to ask doubtfully: "But, Master, since you said you want to be high-profile, why didn't you even mention the name of the source of fire just now?"

"uh this"

In fact, the reason is very simple, because Rorschach was just pretending to be cool and completely forgot about it.

This is so fucking embarrassing
