Reborn in Marvel: I am proficient in all kinds of American Iai

Luke thought for a moment and asked Carter:

"Why would it be someone from SHIELD?"

Carter took a sip of wine and smiled.

"Why can't it be someone from SHIELD?"

Luke said nothing, but looked at Carter, waiting for her to continue.

"SHIELD has actually been eyeing Thom's team for a long time, but since you got involved, they are no longer willing to use it."

"At least the real purpose will not be revealed, so cooperating with the CIA is to lure them into the game."

Luke digested Carter's words and asked her:

"What is S.H.I.E.L.D.'s purpose?"

Carter smiled and didn't answer Luke's question.

“Europe has already started to contact Owen, but I have a friendship with Victoria (Owen’s mother).”

"His mother didn't believe in SHIELD, so I went to her and convinced Owen to work with me."

"Irving made big news in several places in Europe, saying that he had snatched some high-tech, but that's not the case."

After hearing what Carter said, Luke suddenly understood the purpose of SHIELD.

He stared at Carter with wide eyes.

"Nick Fury wants to settle the account?"

Carter nodded seriously.

"The CIA that was originally going to cooperate with him was kicked out, so they turned to Thom."

Knowing SHIELD's purpose, Luke rubbed his forehead.

"So, the CIA wants to settle the accounts too?"

Carter shrugged.

"They were unwilling to be kicked out, so they found Tom."

Luke sighed.

"How bad is SHIELD's account in Europe."

Carter looked serious.

"I have found out a lot of information. There is a huge financial loophole in SHIELD's affairs in Europe."

"It has now reached the point where it can no longer be covered up. As long as the Security Council investigates, it will definitely explode."

Luke rubbed his forehead.

"So, Nick Fury wants to settle the account as quickly as possible?"

Carter shook his head.

"It's not Nick Fury, it's Alexander Pierce."

Carter finished speaking, but Luke didn't respond.

He knows that Alexander is Hydra and Nick Fury is not.

If Carter finds out about Alexander, he will find more clues about Hydra.

Luke thought for a moment and asked Carter:

“What are you going to do in the next phase?”

Carter raised the corners of his mouth.

"Owen will definitely be arrested, but it can't be done by the authorities."

Luke nodded.

Carter told him this because he wanted Luke to find a way to stop Owen's team from settling accounts with SHIELD.

Luke felt helpless.

"I'm from the FBI. These things don't involve the United States, so I can't speak publicly."

After looking at Carter's expression, Luke continued:

"Steve can't show up either."

"I don't have anyone else available, so I can only ask you to do this."

Luke was also a little embarrassed.

Except for Frank's team, which is public, the rest of his teams cannot be seen in public.

Because he has no legal law enforcement status, there is no reason to arrest Irving.

He sighed and thought about it, and decided that people like Tom and Brian were the most suitable.

The CIA also wants Thom's team to help them settle their accounts, but they will definitely burn their bridges afterwards.

Considering the character of those CIA people, silencing them is the best thing to do.

But these matters are not the FBI's business, and Luke has no good solution.

Fortunately, Luke has enough friends.

After confirming her contact details with Carter, she left.

The rest is entirely up to Luke.

Carter is responsible for causing trouble for SHIELD Europe, so he naturally cannot ignore it.

However, if they ask Thom to do this, it would be equivalent to offending both the CIA and SHIELD at the same time.

Friends can't be so deceiving.

After struggling for a long time, Luke still couldn't come up with any good solution.

Elika came out and considerately made a pot of tea for Luke.

She knew Luke didn't like coffee, so she made him a cup of jasmine tea.

Then, without disturbing him, she went back to her bedroom.

Luke sat on the sofa, drinking tea and thinking about how to deal with this problem.

But what was unexpected was that something big happened in London that night.

Terrorists detonated explosives containing chemical weapons in London.

Causing large-scale casualties.

Carter called Luke suddenly and said that she was busy dealing with this matter and Owen's matter had to be put aside for the time being.

These terrorists chose a perfect time. Infighting within the British intelligence agencies allowed them to take advantage of the situation.

Carter is trying to control the Military Intelligence Department behind the scenes.

The British government was unwilling to see its intelligence agencies fall into the hands of the royal family, so it followed the example of the United States and set up a National Security Center.

Because the Military Intelligence Office has been in the hands of the government for a long time, Carter has a lot of trouble in fully controlling the Military Intelligence Office.

Fortunately, Mrs. M had some connections, which she gave to Carter.

At least half of the MI6's power was taken back by Carter.

This terrorist bombing is very strange.

Logically speaking, there is no reason to put things in the UK.

If terrorists want to make big news, they must have certain demands.

Afterwards, no organization claimed responsibility for the attack.

There was no prior warning.

Luke just took a quick look at the news; he didn't want to care about it at all.

This is Carter's territory. Since she didn't say anything, Luke can't interfere.

But the next day, Luke received an unexpected call.

The caller is the current president of Uzbekistan: Farah Karim (see Chapter 465 for details)

Luke wanted to say a few pleasantries, but Farah's tone on the other end of the phone was urgent.

"Mr Dutton, Al Qatala has claimed responsibility for the London bombings."

Luke frowned and picked up the tablet to contact Lilith.

Lilith soon delivered the news.

There is indeed a video posted online by the leader of the Aqtala organization claiming responsibility for the London bombings.

But he didn't say why.

It seemed like a normal terrorist attack, but Luke felt something was wrong.

Farah also explained on the phone.

“The Agatala organization is those who are determined not to form a state with other tribes and power organizations after the unification of Uzbekistan.”

“They are now attacking not only Russian troops, but also government troops in Uzbekistan.”

To be honest, Luke was a little disappointed after listening to Farah's introduction.

Farah may be a qualified warrior and commander, but not a good politician.

She is a true patriot, but her abilities are limited.

There is still a lack of capacity in managing the country of Uzbekistan.

"I see. You've worked really hard these past few years. I'll send more consultants to help you in a while. I'll help you check this matter."

"I'm sorry, but thank you anyway, Luke."

After hanging up the phone, Luke asked Lilith to check out the Agatala organization.

This Agatala has been wandering around the border of Uzbekistan.

The areas bordering Uzbekistan are also places such as Iraq and Syria, which have been ravaged by war for many years.

There is no way to effectively combat this terrorist organization.

Most of the countries surrounding Uzbekistan are in war, either caused by the Americans or the Russians.

There are simply too many terrorist organizations.

But now Uzbekistan is a pro-American regime, and the Qin family has a lot of investment here.

Most of Uzbekistan is peaceful and stable.

The only chaotic area is the border area.

However, Luke also noticed another piece of information provided by Lilith.

A huge explosion occurred in a Russian factory near the border of Uzbekistan not long ago.

When Luke saw the photo of the factory after the explosion, his eyes immediately froze.

This wasn't a spontaneous explosion, it was a bombing.

Let Lilith evaluate the damage to the photos and finally draw a conclusion.

This was an attack by white phosphorus bombs.

Lilith evaluates toxic analysis of the London bombings.

It exactly matches some of the raw materials produced by this factory.

In other words, the toxic substance produced by this factory was the material used in the London bombing.

Unexpectedly, while Luke was browsing and analyzing the intelligence, he received a call from another friend.

"Ms. Laswell?"

"It's me, Luke. I might need to trouble you with something."

"You mean the London bombings?"

"It's somewhat related, mainly because we need Uzstan's help..."

Laswell spoke openly of the factory explosion on the border of Uzbekistan.

This is the result of the US bombing.

They received information that the factory had produced a batch of chemicals.

And it is likely to be used by terrorists.

Intelligence shows that many terrorist organizations are planning to take action against this batch of toxic substances.

Although the mortality rate of this batch of toxic substances is not high, they can be used to make chemical weapons.

So an action team was sent to intercept the toxic substances.

But unexpectedly, something went wrong.

When the action team entered the bombed factory, they found that there were not only mercenaries but also Russian special forces guarding the factory.

The two sides exchanged fire without knowing each other's identity.

Because the factory had been bombed beforehand, the action team easily defeated all Russian troops.

When they were about to leave with the toxic substances, they were intercepted.

The other side showed mercy when they saw they were American soldiers.

He just temporarily controlled all the members of the operation team, then stole the truck of toxic substances and left.

After reading the subsequent report, Lasswell felt that he should first contact the government of Uzbekistan. Only with their cooperation could he find this batch of toxic substances.

And Luke had a good relationship with the government of Uzstan, so they found him.

Luke agreed to Laswell's request.

In addition to their friendship, Alex (Luke's ex-girlfriend, who appeared in Chapter 20) also works under her.

After hanging up the phone, Luke called Farah and explained the situation.

Farah was silent for a long time.

Farah is actually very hostile to military intelligence personnel from other countries.

Because of the Russian military's previous experience, Farah was unwilling to allow agents and soldiers from other countries to carry out operations in his own country.

But she also knew that there was no other way. Uzbekistan had finally managed to make the Russian army restrain itself and no longer dare to act tyrannically.

And the United States is not a good thing either.

Now that Uzbekistan is rebuilding on the ruins, it does not really have the power to control the terrorist organizations around it.

In the end, Farah agreed to Luke's request.

We still have to agree to the small requests from the financial sponsor.

She believed that even if she refused, it would not make Luke give up his investment in Uzbekistan.

After arranging this matter, Luke also felt a headache.

A good planet, but with so few people, they have been fighting each other for more than 2,000 years...

Even though there are six billion people on Earth, this population is still pitifully small compared to other civilizations of similar size in the universe.

Seeing that Luke was busy with work recently, Elika didn't bother him and quickly left with her luggage...

A few days later, Carter called as well.

"The suspect of the Al-Qatala organization planning the bombing in London has been arrested and we have obtained a lot of information."

"But the leader of the Al-Qatala organization, Omar Sulaiman, the Wolf, is not in London."

"Where is he?"

"Syria."

"What do you need me to do?"

"We suspect that the al-Qatala organization is linked to General Bakov of the Southern Military District of Russia."

"So, Uzstan must keep the Russians at bay over there so that we can quickly capture the evil wolf."

Luke rubbed his forehead, thought for a moment and said to Carter:

"I'll help you with this matter, but whether the other party agrees or not is another matter."

"Okay, as long as we can get in touch, I have a way to persuade the other party."

After giving Carter Farah's contact information, Luke sent Farah a message.

After making these arrangements, Luke began to think.

This will not be a simple terrorist incident.

It involves the confrontation between the Russian and American armies, so it must be a conspiracy by someone with ulterior motives.

Luke doesn't analyze individual events, he looks at the big picture...

He figured it out immediately.

The person S.H.I.E.L.D. wants to settle the score with is Alexander Pierce.

But would Nick Fury be so stupid?

No, on the contrary, this guy is too suspicious.

Just from the fact that he arranged for Letty to join Owen's team, it was clear that he was worried.

But Europe is not his territory, and he cannot beat Carter, who is more experienced than him.

It would be interesting to connect the two things together...

Muddy the water is too simple and crude.

But I have to admit, it’s simple and effective.

Luke believed that the people from SHIELD would also pay attention to the whereabouts of this batch of toxic substances.

But he could never have imagined that most of the SHIELD members in Europe were actually Hydra members.

If it's covered up, Nick Fury won't be able to get any truly useful information.

The ones who muddied the waters were the Russian army and Agatala, and perhaps some American soldiers were involved as well.

Rubbing his forehead, Luke sighed.

This is really complicated and brain-burning.

If we simply pick out one thing, it is the conflict between terrorists and big powers.

But if you raise your head and look at it from a global perspective, you will find something different.

Alexander Pierce faces great resistance in settling his account.

At this time, Irving's team is trying to settle the big news, which is terrorism.

Maybe he was attacked by the elite troops of some country.

Carter can’t let Irving go now to continue making big news.

So many people died in London, if there was any more trouble, Owen’s comrades (SAS) would come to talk to him…

But Luke thought that Alexander Pierce must be having a headache right now.

But Luke couldn't guess yet what Nick Fury was planning next.

After much thought, Luke decided that it was necessary to take a trip to Uzbekistan.

Luke acted immediately. That afternoon, he flew to the capital of Uzbekistan and met Farah.

But what Luke didn't expect was that the people around Farah surprised and delighted him.

"Alex? Why is it you?"
