Shadow of the Beautiful World

Text 14. The Death of Crazy Ideals - Thanks to the Taipal Brothers, the Head of Xinshou Village, for Their Silver Alliance【7/10】

"hush huh"

In the quiet night, the noisy sound of helicopter propellers sounded outside a certain warehouse on the outskirts of the city.

Escorted by heavily armed soldiers, the stern-faced Whitehall walked quickly into this nondescript warehouse with the box in his hand.

He left a few people guarding the door, and then walked down the stairs into the ground with ease. At the end of the basement was a small sealed laboratory, which stored all of Whitehall's research results over the years.

Some dangerous experiments are not suitable for urban areas, nor can you put all your eggs in one basket, which is what Whitehall realized long ago.

This underground laboratory is protected by a black steel door, which is extremely thick, and is equipped with a complex key composed of fingerprints, iris plus voice, key and password. The existence of this door can maximize the Keep Whitehall's secrets secret.

The thin Whitehall took off his glasses, put his left hand on the door lock, inserted the oddly shaped key, let the iris scan aim at his eyes, and said in a low voice while pressing the password:

"hailhydra! (Long live Hydra)"

"kuang"

The heavy door opened slowly, and opened outward amidst the sound of mechanical operation. Whitehall closed his eyes and looked at the sealed equipment in the laboratory. He breathed a sigh of relief, and said to the soldiers guarding him:

"Push everything out and put it in the helicopter. Time is running out, so hurry up."

But no one answered him.

There was silence behind him.

Whitehall turned around in surprise, and saw three soldiers behind him standing there like puppets, their eyes were beating strange lights, and the weapon used to protect Whitehall was aimed at him at this moment .

"this"

Whitehall realized that something was wrong, he hugged the box in his hand tightly, and retreated into the laboratory.

Then he bumped into an object behind him.

Cold, steel-like separated fingers rested on Whitehall's neck.

Whitehall glanced back, and what he saw was an extremely familiar metal mask, which he personally designed for his most successful experiment.

The bronze-colored mask is very anthropomorphic, and there are patterns decorated with the Hydra logo on it, which looks full of a mysterious deterrent force.

"Number 13!"

Whitehall screamed in fear, and the next moment, the fingers of the test subject No. 13, whose body had been transformed into steel, closed and clamped violently on Whitehall's neck, lifting him into the air with ease.

It is worth mentioning that No. 13, who was naked before, is now wearing a thick black overcoat and black combat boots. Combined with his height of more than 2 meters and his bald head shining under the lights, he looks Full of brutal and violent deterrence.

During Whitehall's struggle, the box in his hand dropped to the ground and was picked up by a soldier.

The soldier held the box in both hands, and respectfully handed it to Merlin who appeared behind them.

Merlin took the box, and he looked at it like a work of art.

"Be polite, black hand."

Merlin waved his hand. Like the most loyal guard, No. 13 threw Whitehall on the cold ground of the secret room. His simple and outdated black round frame on the bridge of his nose The glasses were also smashed to the ground, and the lenses were shattered.

Whitehall curled up there, in front of his eyes, three black muzzles were already aimed at his body.

Perhaps in the next moment, a bullet would be fired from the muzzle of the gun, completely ending his life here.

"I call him 'Black Hand,' and that's a nice name, isn't it, Mr. Daniel."

Merlin looked at Whitehall lying on the ground, and said:

"He's a human being, you can't call him 13, 14, whatever, that doesn't respect his dignity as a human being. I mean, although you're an asshole who deserves 10,000 hell times, But you should have some tutoring anyway."

"You, what are you"

Whitehall touched the bruises and wounds on his face, he looked at Merlin, and he said in disbelief:

"You controlled them? How did you do it?"

"I use magic, Lord Daniel."

Merlin handed the box in his hand to a soldier beside him, lowered his head, and said to Whitehall:

"That's an area that you will never understand. I have to say, Mr. Daniel, the mutant alien fighters you made are really good."

"But now, he's mine"

Under Whitehall's silent gaze, Merlin turned around, stretched out his fingers, and stroked the opened, heavy, technologically-sounding door behind him. He whispered:

"Montgomery 2000, even I have only seen this thing once."

Merlin recalled what he saw and heard in the Batcave. There was too much money to spend, and his good friend Bruce Wayne, who had a secret identity, also used this thing to protect his Batcave.

Merlin also heard about this door from Ah Fu.

"The 25-ton door can withstand the impact of a 10-million-ton nuclear explosion. This thing is a bulletproof door in the full sense. It can freely combine up to 7 different forms of combination locks, and then open it through the voice recognition system. With the functions of electric shock and automatic locking, there is no gap when it is closed, and within 5 minutes after it is completely closed, all the air in the secret room will be sucked out, and not even a mosquito can fly in."

"The most important point is that this item costs 20 million yuan each, and it is only sold to those customers who have passed the identity verification."

"It's a big extravagant toy."

Merlin told the data of this door in detail, he turned his head, with a trace of sarcasm on his face, he said:

"It made me feel tricky, but you took the initiative to open it for me, should I thank you?"

Daniel Whitehall, who was in a desperate situation, ignored Merlin's ridicule. He frowned, looked at Merlin's figure, and said:

"You can use magic and you hate us so much. You have powerful resources to find us, and the official will cover up your whereabouts. Are you Nick Fury?"

"You still don't know who I am?"

Merlin's expression changed, he squatted down, and he looked at Whitehall:

"Surprisingly, I thought Lady Hydra had already told you who I was. Now it turns out she didn't, right?"

Under Merlin's gaze, the latter shook his head:

"Ophelia is a very proud woman, she is a loner, she doesn't belong to any faction, she always likes to solve her own problems. Maybe she told other people, but she didn't tell me."

"That's really a pity."

He shook his head, his eyes flickered with an indifferent gleam on top of the half-face mask that glowed with blue fluorescent light.

"It seems that you are not united among yourself, and your 'friends' are sitting by and watching your downfall. This is really bad news."

Whitehall had a gloomy face and did not respond to Merlin's statement.

"It's not good to be silent at this time."

Merlin patted his face and said softly:

"You are undoubtedly a bastard with innocent blood on your hands, Mr. Whitehall, maybe now you should seize the last time to repent. If you are sincere enough, I may make your death easier."

"Repent? Why should I repent?"

Facing Merlin's threat, Whitehall smiled in a low tone, feeling the approach of death, but he didn't show much panic.

He looked at Merlin with no guilt on his face, and said:

"What do you take me for? Stupid and ignorant thugs?"

"Do you think I'm too cowardly to face death? Mr. Killer, I'm a person of faith, and death is no big deal to me."

Whitehall leaned against the wall of the laboratory, he said frankly:

"You may have killed a lot of thugs, believe me, I also hate those destroyers of order, they, they are a group of insignificant scum."

There was something gleam in Whitehall's eyes, and he said to Merlin:

"Thugs crave attention and try to use fear to guide public opinion, but they really care about what other people think or feel. They are just a bunch of ignorant children who think they have power, but they are nothing!"

"We, I, I don't care what people like you and others think or think!"

"The real Hydra never cares about anyone's evaluation of us. We are shaping the new order of the world. The advent of order requires sacrifice and dedication. That is a great cause. Now it is nothing more than my turn."

"Kill me, congratulations on your trivial victory."

Whitehall closed his eyes, and after fading his anger and fear, he said to Merlin in a martyr's posture:

"But there will always be latecomers who will inherit my will. As long as people still have expectations for order, Hydra's will will never die."

"You look proud of your profession."

Merlin looked at the time on his watch, and said to Whitehall who was waiting to die with his eyes closed:

"We still have some time, why don't you tell me about the careers of you Hydras, to be honest, I am quite interested. Or, you can try to persuade me, if you are eloquent enough, maybe I will join You can't tell either."

"You just want to get the information you want from me."

With his eyes closed, Whitehall said in an indifferent voice:

"But it's okay, you can catch me, it's not just your own persistent search. There are people who help you, I mean some of my companions, people who should have stood with me, for stupid interest, they let you purge my faction bit by bit. They could stop you, but they didn't."

A sneer flashed across the old bastard's face, and he said to Merlin:

"You're just being used, Mr. Assassin."

"After I die, the threat you bring will turn to them. At that time, they will use all means to obliterate you. You will die if you lose your value, there is no doubt about it."

"This is the risk I have to take, Your Excellency Daniel."

Merlin's fingers danced with a dark shadow throwing knife, and he said:

"I don't want to threaten you with death. That's a stupid act. Tell me, I'll give you time to leave your last words."

"Last words? All right."

Whitehall stretched his neck, took a deep breath, and said to Merlin:

"If you're a perceptive person, you'll eventually see it."

"The world is going to go crazy, and the symptoms of that madness have been around for a long time. Thugs with guns are dangerous enough, but soon, we're going to have crazy people who turn themselves into weapons."

"Mutants, aliens, their appearance is against the laws of nature, they become the bearers of various forces, and those active heroes who claim to be the embodiment of order, justice and axiom, this scarce Individual strength will replace the characteristics of civilization as a whole, and civilization will thus be pushed to the other extreme."

"But human beings don't need heroes to save them. What human beings need is direction! The direction of civilization and the direction of order reconstruction. The meaning of Hydra's existence is to maintain the possibility of order. You don't understand, but it doesn't matter, order is order , no matter what form it takes, no matter whose hand it is brought into being, it is order."

Merlin shrugged, he was starting to feel a little bored, and he said:

"I heard that you are a disciple of the Red Skull? Did your racist teacher only teach you these crazy ideas?"

"Red Skull went the wrong way!"

Whitehall said in a tone of regret:

"There is no doubt about it. He was immersed in the fantasy of conquering the world, especially after he found the Rubik's Cube, the unknown power distorted him, making him want to become a god on the ground, but at the beginning, he didn't Not such a crazy guy, at the beginning, he was very calm, very wise. At that time, he took us forward and continued to achieve victory after victory."

"But he went mad in the end. Mr. Killer, have you ever seen a forest fire?"

Whitehall looked at Merlin, who had already drawn his wand, and he did not answer Whitehall's question.

And Whitehall didn't need Merlin to answer, he looked at the experimental equipment in front of him, and said softly:

"When humans put out fires, they always think that every plant is innocent and their existence is reasonable. But in fact, only the flame is reasonable."

"When the fire burns out the useless tree, its heat is also helping the more worth saving seeds. Although the fire is extinguished, its residual heat will make them break out of the ground, grow, spread, and then support a new era . Burn the dark forest, and in the lingering heat of that ashes, the true dawn will come."

"This is the purest idea of ​​Hydra, a peaceful world without classes, without conflict, without confrontation, a new world where all forces can be concentrated for progress."

"The seeds of chaos must be burned! The hypocrites who claim to be heroes must be buried! The pursuit of individual power is stupid, and the evolution of the entire civilization is the right way!"

"Unfortunately, the system of our world is not a caterpillar. It declines, pales, and lags behind. It does not cocoon itself, and then turns into a butterfly, becoming more beautiful. Without vitality, someone must push it forward, tending to chaos. The order of the world must die before it can be reborn in the fire that we kindle"

"I'm studying aliens and mutants. I'm trying to find the key to evolution. Unfortunately, I don't have time."

"Kill me, but you'll understand eventually"

"You people who think you are protecting order are the root of all evil! Chaotic order survives because of you, and the hope of evolution is dimmed because of you."

"You will eventually understand that I am right!"

"clap clap"

When Whitehall finished speaking, Merlin clapped his hands. He stood up and said to the believing Hydra in front of him:

"You say it so well that it even makes me feel like a great bad guy."

"But that's pointless. Good people don't ruin other people's lives and call themselves noble. You were a scum back then, and you are now."

"Daniel Whitehall. Your trial was 55 years late, and here it is."

"legilimens!"
