Chapter 1743 Terrible Chess Player
1743. Scary Chess Player
After Tang Yu returned to the United States, Bolivar Trask came up to him and whispered, "Boss, is it a bit..."
"You need to know our position, Trask." Tang Yu waved his hand and said, "I am not on the side of the United States, nor on the side of the Soviet Union. I am on the side of human beings! I am here to eliminate ordinary people and To act against the gaps and differences among mutants, and in order to achieve this goal, it is necessary to establish a power above humans and mutants, and this power is robots."
"I understand your painstaking efforts, but such a result may make you unhappy..." Trask said in a deep voice, "The Soviets have a flamboyant personality. After they establish a robot army, they will definitely make some moves. And that No matter how you hide it, the Americans will eventually suspect you."
"Hehehehe... so what if the Americans go to war with me directly? It's not like I haven't worked with the United States in the multiverse." Tang Yu laughed and said, "By the way, does Essex have any plans?"
"I found some clues, let's go to the office." Trask pointed to the front, and then walked there with Tang Yu.
The two had just walked a few steps, and Keira walked over quickly, her expression a little heavy, "Mystique and the others also left, she said she didn't want to have anything to do with us... Besides, Cyclops and Gambit who are healing expressed the same meaning."
"What do you want to say?" Tang Yu was not surprised, but asked lightly.
"I mean... maybe the Pufferfish incident, and the Cuban invasion, they couldn't take it," Kyra whispered.
"how about you?"
Keira shook her head, "I won't leave, because this is my duty."
"So do you know the difference between you and Mystique?" Tang Yu said, "They are heroes. Wolverine, Mystique, Angel, Siren, Darwin... Heroes cannot have their own stand. Their only standard is good and evil. Otherwise, a hero is no longer a hero."
"They will go to war on everything that is considered 'evil', and we absolutely cannot give them such a platform. Because we have our own position and our own goals. Heroes are short-sighted, they only see what is in front of them. For them, if they can save one person in front of them, then they don't want to think about whether they can save more people in a month. But it is also because of this that they are heroes and deserve to be saved. respect."
"But you are different." Tang Yu pointed to Keira and Trask, "You are people who do things, and your actions have clear goals.
And will not scruple all the obstacles in the way between the goals. So, you are the ones who move history forward. To do this, first of all, you cannot be a hero. "
Keira lowered her head and pondered, Tang Yu walked over and patted her on the shoulder and said, "Actually, Emma is also a person like Wolverine, but because of the relationship between her and me, she will accept my values, and don't worry about it." I think I'm doing the right thing. Well, don't pay too much attention to the Wolverines. It might be better to let them act freely. Because when we look into the distance, these heroes will help us forget what is in front of us. things, pick them up."
"Pick up what?" Kayla asked.
"Human nature." After Tang Yu answered briefly, he greeted Kayla and Trask and walked into the office together.
In the office, Peacock was already waiting there. She looked at Tang Yu with a smile on her face, stood up and turned on the light screen in front of her, clicked on the information on it and said: "During the time you were entangled with Cuba and the Soviet Union, I cooperated with Tela SK conducted an investigation into the Essex company. It was concluded that the company both existed and did not exist."
"How?" Tang Yu asked, frowning.
"The reason why this company does not exist is that firstly, they are not registered, secondly, they have no fixed source of funds, thirdly, they have no office space, and fourthly, all employees are part-time." I went to check, but I couldn’t find them anyway. Fortunately, Trask judged that if the Essex Company had any power in the United States, it must have a relationship with the Rockefeller family, so I sneaked into the Rockefeller family’s Some investigations have been conducted in the industry."
Trask also added on the side: "As you judged before, the boss, the Sentinel mk-4 robot developed by Lockheed has fatal and low-level flaws. And such flaws should not have appeared! Therefore, The target of our investigation is to start from the mk-4 project. We found the former design director of Lockheed Corporation. After the mk-4 had problems, he got drunk in a bar and went out He was hit by a car and what's weirder is that his body was cremated the next day and nothing was left."
Tang Yu frowned and said, "If the Essex company hadn't started the matter first, his death would be justified anyway. The blow to career, the pain of failure, it's normal to get drunk. But if all this is based on conspiracy If it is judged, then there may be a problem!"
Peacock nodded and said: "That's it, and there must be something ulterior on this person's body. So I kidnapped his wife. In fact, his wife didn't know anything, but Emma conducted an in-depth investigation on her. After hypnosis, I found some clues."
"What clues?" Tang Yu asked.
"On his waist, there is a very inconspicuous tattoo, and the tattoo's words are, Essex! Essex!" Peacock said in a deep voice.
Tang Yu stood up suddenly, "You mean, the Rockefeller family's plan to develop the Sentinel mk-4 was actually tricked?!"
"Yes! Someone deliberately gave the blueprint of the Sentinel mk-3 left by Edward Buckman to the Rockefeller family to give them ambitions in this regard. And this person should have been in Edward Buckman's team at the time Among them." Peacock said.
"How did you see that?"
Peacock directly took out a roll of blueprints and spread them out on the table. Tang Yu's pupils constricted suddenly when he saw the blueprints! Because this blueprint has very obvious traces of being soaked in red wine, and there are a lot of paints and changes on it! It was the blueprint that Tang Yu brought with him when he met Edward Buckman! At that time, Tang Yu made some random changes on the drawings, which impressed Edward Buckman, and then accidentally knocked over a glass of red wine!
"In other words... this person..."
"That's right! It was Edward Buckman's chief technical advisor at the time, Steven Lang! The drawings came from him! He probably has something to do with the Essex company!" Trask said with certainty.
Tang Yu's face darkened, "If that's the case, then the other party has started planning since the infighting of the Hellfire Club? This kind of thinking is too scary!"
"It's not that bad. I think the opponent's original purpose of doing this should be just to place a chess piece at random, but it happened to be used later. But even so, the opponent must be a very terrible chess player. Doubt." Trask looked serious.
