Chapter 1651: Escape and Final Struggle
He had really almost fallen into a trap.
Just now, the two old fellows had pretended to be weak and lured the enemy in. They then blew up a passage and almost buried the Death Soldier.
If the two Death Soldiers hadn’t helped cover each other, either one of them would’ve already been surrounded and beaten up in less than two minutes.
The two Death Soldiers were extremely anxious about this stalemate.
They had tried many times to contact their two comrades who had gone to save Pierce, but they had received no response, which made it even harder for them to calm down.
Pierce was the leader of this operation. Something must’ve happened if he couldn’t be contacted.
Previously, they had received news from the carriers in the north and south that they were being attacked by an extremely fierce enemy at the same time, which was pretty much the same as their current situation.
Clearly, someone was targeting them.
The people they were facing here were pitch-black all over. They didn’t make a sound, and when one fell, another took their place – it felt like there was no end to them.
After ten minutes, the two heavily armored Death Soldiers were ready to flee.
But Pierce’s whereabouts were unknown.
If the guy was still alive, they would be punished even if they weren’t his subordinates and were important test subjects under another “head.”
There were a lot of ways that Hydra could make people wish they were dead even without injuring their bodies.
The two Death Soldiers could now only apply to their leader for urgent instructions, but they didn’t receive any response for the moment.
Compared with the value of Project Insight, these two weren’t as important as the three Helicarriers.
Whether to continue with their operation or stop was a difficult decision that was up to their leader to make.
Unfortunately for them, their opponents were too fierce and didn’t give them any time to catch their breaths. They were in grave danger.
At that moment, they heard cries for help from the main control room. “The enemy is coming from Section B! Come back!”
Their expressions changed.
They were now in Section C behind Section B, which meant that someone had bypassed them and was directly attacking the main control room.
They had been very careful and hadn’t given their opponents any opportunity.
But as time passed, they grew more and more flustered, and there were holes in their defense. They were too busy to pay attention to what was behind them, and Luke easily slipped past.
They looked at each other, and one of them jerked his head at a passage.
It was a way out of the main carrier.
His partner was silent. Struggling for a moment, the other party suddenly nodded and opened fire.
A moment later, he was blown back with a loud bang and spat blood.
His partner immediately helped him up. “What’s wrong?”
The man coughed up blood and shook his head, as if he couldn’t even speak.
Even as his partner asked the question, he didn’t hesitate to drag him away.
The two heavily armored Death Soldiers slipped away.
Mikey took the lead and charged toward a fork in the passage, only to see a black metal plate-like object flashing with red dots where the Death Warriors had been.
Mikey rolled backward. “Fff…”
Boom!
Fire erupted from the fork, and Mikey’s robot was sent flying ten meters.
At that point, the Hydra members in the SHIELD Helicarrier were no longer able to hold on, and they were quickly eliminated by the little turtles and Mindy.
In the main control room, the Hydra commander saw everything through the surveillance cameras.
Desperation surfaced on his face, and he went crazy. He raised his arm and shouted, “Cut off one head, two shall take its place! Hail Hydra!”
The rest of the Hydra members immediately stood up and shouted, “Hail Hydra!”
Then, the commander quickly entered a long series of passwords into the virtual screen in front of him. He then opened a transparent protective shell on the console, and his finger hovered over the square red button inside.
At that moment, the door behind him flashed with a red light and split in half.
An ordinary black dagger flew through the gap in the door and pierced the commander’s shoulder, causing him to spin around and fall to the floor.
Before anyone else could understand what had happened, more daggers flew in through the gap and cut down all the Hydra members.
Luke darted inside and closed the transparent cover on the red button. Only then did he knock out all the Hydra members and toss them out.
Tony waited for a moment before he walked in.
When Luke returned, the tycoon had already taken control of the carrier in the north.
When Luke had first entered, his mind had switched to the robot under the Level 1 clone’s control, and he started the takeover of the carrier in the south.
Thanks to his experience on the carrier in the north, he was much faster this time.
But just when he took control of the carrier in the south, he immediately switched back to the robot here.
Apart from Luke, Tony was the busiest person here.
Luke could rely on his clone, while the tycoon had to rely on the robot to achieve a similar effect.
A moment later, the little turtles and the others arrived.
Luke told them to guard the door, and he immediately went after the two heavily armored Death Soldiers.
These two guys were quite difficult to deal with, and were definitely strong fighters of Hydra. It would be a shame to let them go.
Less than a minute later, Luke returned and said to Tony, who was busy, “Steer the three carriers to an empty area and destroy them.”
Tony paused and turned to look at him. “Are you sure?”
Luke said, “This is Hydra’s doing. Those guys almost succeeded in self-destructing this carrier earlier. Can we hang around here and guard against another Hydra attack? Don’t worry, someone on the carrier in the south is willing to press the button to open fire. You don’t have to do it yourself.”
Tony was lost for words.
It wasn’t that he felt sorry about the three carriers. In any case, they weren’t his.
The three carriers cost more than two hundred billion dollars in total. If Luke destroyed them so easily, the American government would go crazy.
In fact, if they deliberately let one of the carriers open fire even just once, the consequences of destroying them wouldn’t be too big.
Unfortunately, Tony knew that the guy in front of him would never do that.
Compared with being hated by the American government, saving lives was clearly more important. A certain person had long noted down the American government in his little black notebook, and didn’t mind adding a few more dirty deeds.
After thinking for a moment, Tony didn’t say anything else.
This had nothing to do with him or Batman – it was between SHIELD or Hydra.
The people who had helped Pierce complete the construction of the two other Helicarriers were already in trouble.
If the American government wanted to make a big deal out of it, they would have to first find those people, who were highly likely to be Hydra.
A lot of people would be taking the fall for this. Tony couldn’t help but laugh inwardly.
This was already a very good outcome.
As long as the three carriers launched Project Insight, even if they were only able to open fire once, the ones who died wouldn’t be the several hundred people in SHIELD, but tens of thousands of people.
It hadn’t been a waste for the tycoon to slink over and lend a hand.
