Chapter 368 New and Good (Part 2)

Dealing with Hydra from the top is indeed very effective, but at the same time, if you choose the difficult mode to start, you must be prepared for the enemy to be very difficult.

These snakeheads are not given for nothing. They are extremely vigilant. If there is any disturbance, they will immediately go silent on all channels and disappear with the people and evidence.

What's more, they didn't forget to trip up Stark before disappearing. In the past few days, the stock of Stark Group has fallen a lot. Pepper is under great pressure. Stark's public opinion has become worse, and Obadiah has to clean up his ass.

Although the technical means are very advanced, the enemy is at a higher level. If they fight head-on, Stark still has a way to deal with them, but these people don't confront Stark head-on at all. They slip away immediately when they hear the slightest movement.

So, Stark fell into the dilemma of catching mice. If he wanted to catch the mice, he had to go to the mouse nest himself, but wouldn't that fall into Steve's routine again?

In short, whether it is destroying the base from the bottom or targeting the leaders from the top, both methods have their own flaws, and Stark also realized this. Just like Banner said before, I am afraid that only by joining forces can these problems be fundamentally solved.

So, although Stark was reluctant to put on a bad face in the end, he and Steve still sat down at a table. Under the mediation of Peter and Matt, the two were finally able to sit down and talk calmly.

In fact, in the original comics, Iron Man and Captain America had a honeymoon period, which means that the two of them are very compatible in some aspects. Therefore, in this conversation, both of them felt a little awkward.

They instinctively didn't want to talk to each other, but their thoughts were uncontrollably following each other. The more they talked, the smoother it became, and their thoughts became more and more unified. Then at a certain point in time, they suddenly reacted and froze there.

Peter didn't understand what they were doing, but Matt sighed and shook his head.

Finally, Stark pinched his nose and said, "Okay, if it's to deal with Hydra, I can cooperate with you temporarily, but on strategic issues, you must listen to me..."

Steve also nodded and said, "I won't interfere with your judgment, but I have my own ideas. If we disagree, then vote..."

In the end, both of them accepted this statement, but Steve was a little strange. He asked, "You didn't clamor for us to join your Glorious Alliance, but planned to join the Avengers? This is not like you, Stark."

Stark showed a speechless expression and said, "Join the Glorious Alliance? You really don't have a correct understanding of your own moral level..."

"On the contrary, I am most confident in my own moral level. , don't you know the origin of Captain America? The bad guys are worse, and the good guys are better. "

"That's exactly what I'm talking about. I am a moral role model in the Glorious Alliance, raising the overall average level. If it weren't for me and Charles, their moral bottom line would be erected."

"Speaking of this, I was just about to ask, what do you think of the mysterious man codenamed "Doctor"? "

"What do you think? He is just a Hydra agent who hides his head and shows his tail... Wait, what do you mean by asking this? You are suspicious of someone among us..."

Seeing that Stark was about to refute, Steve spoke first: "But this is not without basis. All our actions are confidential, and the places we raid will never be known to others, but every time we enter a base, everyone there evacuates , and he just left not long ago, don't you think this is strange? "

"That's because there is a traitor among you. What is the relationship with the people of the Glorious Alliance? We don't know your plan either."

"But there is Professor Charles Xavier among you."

Stark said helplessly: "If Professor Charles is Hydra, who do you think can be alive now?"

"But it is not ruled out that Professor X was used by others. After all, he abides by his own principles and will not read minds easily, so he is also likely to be deceived."

Stark was about to present facts and reason with him when he heard Jarvis say: "Warning! The spacecraft parked at the edge of the solar system has been detected to have unusual movements!"

"Spacecraft? What's going on?"

"The monitoring equipment detected abnormal life fluctuations near Spacecraft No. 19, The energy reading detected is too high! Beep! The monitoring equipment is affected by a mysterious force and has stopped working. "

"Is there anyone trying to steal the spaceship?" Steve asked, "Who? They also destroyed your monitoring equipment. Do they want to steal the spaceship?"

Stark stretched out his hand and made a calm gesture. He asked Jarvis, "Can you detect what energy destroyed the monitoring equipment?"

"I don't know. I can't analyze it, but I guess it's magic energy."

"Magic..." Stark muttered to himself. He said, "Strange? ? ? "

After that, he instinctively looked at Steve, and the two said in unison, "Doctor!"

A few minutes later, in the Arkham Sanatorium, Schiller looked at Strange across from him with a serious face and said to him, "You're in trouble."

Strange's eyes widened and he said, "Impossible, I used invisibility magic the whole time, and I also used my position to cover the spaceship..."

"But Peter just called me and said that Jarvis sounded the alarm. It should be that your magic energy affected the monitoring equipment that Stark left around the spaceship."

"Damn it, I even bypassed those monitors. It might be the monitor on the right side of the deck that sounded the alarm. I didn't notice it when I walked over..."

Strange said helplessly, "What should I do? Stark will definitely make trouble for me, and maybe even... Take back the spaceship with an excuse, that stingy guy..."

"Aren't you already the Sorcerer Supreme? Then go back to Kamar-Taj and stay in seclusion for a while. Can he still catch up with you? As long as he can't find you, he can't take back the spaceship legitimately."

"That's right, it's just right that the work in the Sanctum Sanctorum is left to Loki, and I can still take a few days off. I've wanted to go on vacation for a long time..."

After saying that, Strange left as if he was chased by a dog. Obviously, he was still afraid that Stark would make trouble for him, after all, he was in the wrong.

So, in the next Radiant Alliance meeting, looking at the seat vacated by Strange, Stark narrowed his eyes suspiciously and asked, "Where is Stephen?"

"He went back to Kamar-Taj to retreat. He must have been practicing magic recently and occasionally gained something." Schiller repeated Strange's original words to Stark. Stark snorted and said, "A magic apprentice has the nerve to say that he occasionally gained something?"

After the meeting, several members of the Avengers gathered together again. Now Stark also joined. He sat opposite Steve and said, "But I still don't believe that Strange is Hydra. You know, he is the Supreme Sorcerer. Do you think there is any reason to connect these two identities?"

"Hydra is like this. You may not know them well enough." Steve sighed and said, "They will disguise themselves as all kinds of people , from politicians and congressmen to drivers and vendors, you never know which one of them is disguised as Hydra. "

"Moreover, according to my experience, highly educated talents are the hardest hit by Hydra. Where do you think all the researchers of Hydra come from?"

"The Sorcerer Supreme is Hydra?" Peter said in disbelief: "This is too ridiculous. It's just like saying, Captain, you are Hydra..."

Steve was not in the mood to joke. He said calmly: "This possibility cannot be ruled out. I mean, the possibility that I am Hydra cannot be ruled out. If one day you find that all signs indicate that this kind of thing really happened, then you must investigate and never let your guard down."

Peter's facial features were all wrinkled together. Even if he said it out loud, the fact that Captain America is Hydra made him feel a little tongue-tied.

Steve said seriously, "I'm telling the truth. In addition to training agents and spies, Hydra is also good at cloning technology. Everyone present may be replaced. Perhaps the real Supreme Sorcerer is not Hydra, but none of us can guarantee whether the person we saw is the real Supreme Sorcerer."

Seeing Stark's expression change slightly, Steve continued, "This is their plan to make humans distrust each other and eventually cause war."

"Of course, we can't put a false accusation on one person. Everything needs to be investigated." Steve changed the subject and said, "At least, now I can ask Accept the investigation with a clear conscience. Since it was me who proposed it, I am willing to accept the investigation with Dr. Strange. If there is no problem, it will be better. If there is a problem, at least we can ensure that the wizards are not affected by evil. "

"Um...did you overlook a problem?" Peter scratched his head and said, "It seems that there is more than one doctor around us, Dr. Stephen. Isn't Dr. Schiller also a psychiatrist?"

Stark and Steve looked at each other, and Steve reached out and patted Peter on the shoulder and said, "I don't remember if I mentioned to you the biggest characteristic of Hydra members..."

"What is that?" Peter asked a little puzzled.

"Hardworking."

Stark also turned to Peter and said, "You can't expect a person who goes to bed at 9 o'clock in the evening to join Hydra. He will be screened out in the first round of interviews."

Steve's voice attracted Peter back again. He said, "Think about the agents you met in SHIELD. Do you think this job can be completed by someone who has a regular schedule and goes to bed early and gets up early?"

Peter opened his mouth and said, "It seems true..."

"Peter, agents and spies, even high-level leaders, need to work day and night, work hard, and spend a lot of effort to build their intelligence networks and bases. Anyone who doesn't work hard can't become a lurker. This job is much busier than you think..."

"More importantly, they must keep in touch with multiple forces at all times. Once their channels are silent, they will be leaderless like now."

Peter thought back to the days when he lived in Schiller's original psychological clinic. He said, "If that's the case, Dr. Schiller should be the most unlikely one here. His life is too regular."

"And he doesn't like to answer the phone. If he answers more than three calls a day, he will get angry, including takeout calls."

"He also hates staying up late, and hates being woken up even more. If he finds out that I haven't gone to bed before ten o'clock, I'll be in trouble."

"Also, he really hates people who only say half of what they say." Peter thought for a while and added, "... and rats."
