Facing the gaze of everyone, even if it is through an online video, Phil Coulson still feels a lot of pressure.
Victoria Hand knocked on the table and said, "Mr. Phil Coulson, we are very curious about Triskelion Headquarters. Can you please tell us in detail?"
Phil looked hesitant.
At this time, Melinda May coughed lightly and nodded to him.
Phil smiled bitterly and said, "Okay, everyone... the cause of the matter is because of a super artificial intelligence named Arnim Zola!"
"Wait a minute!" Park Min-jung interrupted directly, "Arnim Zola?! I seem to have seen this name on the S.H.I.E.L.D. Academy's Wall of Valor!"
Phil looked at her in surprise and nodded. "Dr. Arnim Zola is one of the HYDRA scientists who was extradited to United States through Project Paperclip after the end of World War II..."
"HYDRA?!" some people in charge exclaimed in unison.
Phil Silently...
Robert Gonzales's expression instantly became extremely serious. "So the information spread on the Internet is true?! HYDRA forces have really penetrated into S.H.I.E.L.D.?"
"Yes, Captain Robert!" Phil nodded with a wry smile, "Because of Project Paperclip, a group of surviving HYDRA members were recruited into S.H.I.E.L.D., and the new HYDRA took root in S.H.I.E.L.D. from then on..."
"It took S.H.I.E.L.D. as its nourishment and developed silently for decades..."
"I'm afraid there are many, many people like Dr. Arnim Zola who are both members of S.H.I.E.L.D. and HYDRA..."
Victoria Hand finally reacted at this time, and her face became very ugly. "This is what Arnim Zola said about 'Hydra-Shield'..."
Victor Sanchez frowned and asked, "Commander Hand? What do you mean by 'Hydra-Shield'?"
Victoria Hand pushed up his glasses and said in a deep voice, "Arnim Zola once said that S.H.I.E.L.D. can be renamed 'Hydra-Shield'!"
"It's because we can't tell who is HYDRA and who is S.H.I.E.L.D.!"
"The real HYDRA members now have two identities... They are both Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and HYDRA members!"
Phil then added, "Alexander Pierce, the former director of S.H.I.E.L.D., is one of the members of HYDRA!"
"Walterfak?!" Everyone in the video was shocked!
"Coulson, are you sure what you said is true?!" Old Robert asked in a deep voice.
Phil nodded with a wry smile, "Director Nick had to reveal the fact that HYDRA had infiltrated S.H.I.E.L.D. because he exposed his identity..."
"Fake! How are we going to fight this battle?!" Victor Sanchez's face darkened instantly, "Every comrade around us may be a hidden HYDRA..."
At this time, someone seemed to come next to Park Min-jung. She listened for a moment and nodded.
"Everyone! Let me tell you some good news!" She faced the camera again and smiled happily, "We have just intercepted a new piece of information. Alexander Pierce is dead!"
As soon as her words came out, the video conference suddenly seemed to explode.
Phil asked directly, "Madam, can you confirm the authenticity of this information?"
Park Min-jung nodded. "Yes! This information was intercepted from U.S. Department of Defense. More than half an hour ago, a Quinjet escaped from Triskelion Headquarters. The plane was hit by a supersonic missile at high altitude, and the plane exploded on the spot!"
Phil's face suddenly became overjoyed, and he hurriedly said, "Everyone, Pierce is dead. HYDRA within S.H.I.E.L.D. has lost its top command... Now is the best time for us to solve external troubles!"
Victoria Hand asked in confusion, "Mr. Coulson, why do you say that?"
Phil: "Commander Hand, as you said before, the HYDRA members hidden inside S.H.I.E.L.D. have two identities, and they are also members of S.H.I.E.L.D.! As far as I know, HYDRA members will also recognize their Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. identity before they receive clear orders..."
Victoria Hand's eyes lit up and he said anxiously, "In other words, they will now carry out S.H.I.E.L.D.'s mission as seriously as before?!"
Phil smiled and nodded, "That's right!"
Victor Sanchez said with great joy, "Then why are you still talking nonsense? Let's just fight back! First kill all these bastards who attacked S.H.I.E.L.D.!"
Subsequently, the video conference quickly established a S.H.I.E.L.D. Temporary Council to replace Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. in coordinating and directing all daily affairs within S.H.I.E.L.D..
The establishment of S.H.I.E.L.D. Temporary Council was immediately communicated to sub-bases around the world through the secret intelligence network of S.H.I.E.L.D..
Some sub-bases that were suffering from armed attacks and were clearly at a disadvantage immediately sent requests for support to the council.
Phil remembered Eric Koenig and asked the council for support on the spot...
Coordinates: Ontario, Canada 49°27'41.0" N 80°03'40.0"W.
That is one of the Nick Fury private bases that Eric Koenig is responsible for: code name 'Providence'.
It just so happens that Hub Headquarters is closest to there.
Victoria Hand immediately ordered Felix Blake to lead a team of elite troops to support.
Felix Blake takes people aboard Quinjet and flies to the destination.
Suddenly, his phone vibrated.
Felix Blake answered the phone, and a husky female voice that he had been dreaming about came over:
"Black..."
At the same time, senior members of HYDRA distributed in all major S.H.I.E.L.D. bases suddenly received a video.
They opened the video and saw that it was the surveillance video of Alexander Pierce before his death.
The leader is dead?!!!
This group of HYDRA senior members suddenly panicked!
Just when these people were at a loss, their personal phones rang...
"Rosa, dear, I am Victor..."
"Rexar, old man, I am Rumlow..."
"Claude, old classmate, I am Sitwell..."
Immediately afterwards, Crimson Portal appeared next to them.
From every Portal, a team of fully armed soldiers came out.
These soldiers are elite troops carefully trained by Baron Strucker, and their commander is directly served by Crimson Believer who opened the door.
Soon, the major forces' tentative attacks on the S.H.I.E.L.D. sub-base encountered a very tough counterattack.
The attackers were caught off guard and suffered heavy casualties instantly.
These forces reacted quickly, and support from S.H.I.E.L.D. arrived!
They immediately put away their probing minions, quickly removed all traces, huddled in their lairs, and pretended that nothing happened.
After the elite troops led by Crimson Believer eliminated the remaining troops, they did not choose to continue chasing.
They abandoned the enemy's corpse and quickly returned to the S.H.I.E.L.D. base.
S.H.I.E.L.D. Temporary Council received reports on 'base security' from major branch bases one after another, and was a little confused for a while...
