Marvel's Overlord

Chapter 49 Bait and Theory Why is this book a logically rigorous book~

Quinn died, and William went back with the rescue team. .biquge

He sat in the car in despair, while Quinn's body lay quietly on the side, as quiet as if he was asleep.

Although William and Johnny Quinn didn't get along for a long time, William could feel that the two of them treated him like a child. William, who grew up in a single-parent family and was raised by his mother alone, is very sensitive to this feeling.

Johnny is the father and Quinn is the mother. The father is taciturn and puts all his love into actions, while the mother is always nagging, hoping that her children will thrive. "Wait, it seems that Quinn is more like the father, and Johnny is the more talkative mother." Thinking of this, William couldn't help but have a smile on his face. When he raised his eyes and saw Quinn "lying" quietly there, his smile turned bitter.

William remembered what Quinn said to him before he died. If it was the Winter Soldier who attacked the convoy, what was Nick Fury doing? Didn't he even find out who the Winter Soldier was working for? With Alexander Pierce already exposed? Such a powerful combat force, why didn't they send heavy troops to deal with it before starting to clean up Hydra? Could it be that they didn't find it, so they used the convoy as bait? Thinking of this possibility, anger ignited in William's chest.

Suppressing the anger in his chest, William shouted into the cab, "Can you drive faster!" He wanted to go back to Nick Fury to find out!

S.H.I.E.L.D. Headquarters, Director's Office.

Nick Fury received the news that Quinn was killed, Johnny was seriously injured, and the escort team suffered heavy casualties. He sighed softly, and the look of sadness or guilt that he didn't know flashed across his face, and it immediately returned to the usual calm and serious majestic expression of the Director of SHIELD. He is the leader of such a large organization and cannot show his weakness in front of others.

The escort convoy was indeed a bait he sent out. On the one hand, it was to lure out the Winter Soldier he had never found, and on the other hand, he wanted to see if SHIELD, which had been initially but comprehensively cleaned, still had Hydra's undercover agents. As he expected, after the escort mission was released, someone in the bureau ventilated the outside, and the Winter Soldier was also lured out. But he had overestimated the Winter Soldier's combat effectiveness as much as possible, and sent Johnny and Quinn out, along with a convoy of troops. Unexpectedly, the people were still robbed, and the entire escort convoy suffered heavy casualties.

It was not without gain. At least the person who was hiding deeper was found out, and someone from the Winter Soldier who kidnapped Pierce was also following and monitoring him. Maybe he can catch a big fish. He knows that Hydra is not just a faction hiding in SHIELD. It depends on where Pierce goes next. Thinking about it this way, the sacrifices of Quinn and others are not meaningless. Nick Fury wanted to smile, but it turned into a sigh when he reached his lips.

He raised his head and took a look. Fortunately, everyone was busy at this time. People who were busy coming in and out didn't notice him sighing frequently. The authority of the director should still be maintained.

As the leader of the world's largest intelligence organization, Nick Fury must pay special attention to everything he says and does. He is also a human being and does not want to see sacrifices, but he has to do these things that make people sacrifice often. Just like this time, if it weren't for this escort operation, Hydra would still have people hiding in SHIELD, and everyone in SHIELD thought that SHIELD had been "clean", so they relaxed their vigilance, allowing Hydra to return Slowly developed relying on S.H.I.E.L.D. Who knows whether it will be like before when everyone thought that Hydra was wiped out during World War II, and then S.H.I.E.L.D. was nearly wiped out by Hydra! This time William reminded me in an almost metaphysical way, but what about next time? There is also the Winter Soldier, a humanoid weapon wandering outside, who knows what he will do?

People often relax their vigilance most easily when they are close to success. And relaxing at this moment is also the most likely to lead to failure. Nick Fury is also a human being, but he cannot let down his guard, so he is so inhumane and cold to outsiders!

But he doesn't care what others think. He is just using his own method to keep this organization going and let this shield always stand on the line of defense to protect human safety! This is why he didn't resist or defend when William rushed into his office, punched him, and then grabbed him by the collar and questioned him.

He also knows that his way of doing things is not good and can make people annoying and even hateful! However, helplessness is life!

Nick Fury calmly looked at the angry William who was grabbing his collar. When William asked him whether Quinn and the others were bait, he calmly said, "Yes."

Then the angry boy punched him in the face again, and he just said calmly, "There is no resurrection after death, so sorry."

Then the angry boy let go of the hand holding his collar, lowered his head and cried.

Nick Fury gently patted William on the shoulder, walked out of his office, and closed the door gently. There are still many things waiting for him to do next. The first and most troublesome thing is to argue with the Security Council.

After an unknown amount of time, the door to the director's office was pushed open from the outside. Only a crack was pushed open, and a head poked through the crack. After seeing William sitting on the sofa, the visitor pushed the door in and closed the door gently.

The person who came was Skye. She walked quietly to William and sat down. She put her hand on William's back, who was leaning on his knees with his hands and his head lowered, and patted gently.

"William, are you okay? I heard." Just after saying this, Skye stopped, and if he continued, it seemed like he would open the wound again? William turned his head and looked at Skye who was hesitant to speak.

Seeing him looking over, Skye quickly said, "Oh, I'm not very good at comforting people. You know, I have actually been a person who needs others to comfort me for so many years? Why did it involve me again? Anyway, I have been a person who needs others to comfort me? Anyway, don’t be too sad!”

Looking at the girl in front of him who wanted to comfort him but was clumsy and tongue-tied, William couldn't help but laugh.

Seeing him smiling, Skye also laughed: "This is the right thing!"

The two looked at each other and laughed for a while. Skye looked at William expectantly and asked, "By the way, did you tell the director about leaving? Did you ask him for the thing you mentioned?"

William was a little speechless: This melon, although I laughed just now, is it so easy to alleviate the sadness of someone close to you dying in front of you? Do you want to ask me to help you?

But William didn't show it, and he could understand Skye's mood. A girl who has been searching for her parents for more than ten years since she was sensible, to no avail, will definitely be impatient if she suddenly gets the hope of finding her parents.

It seems it's not time to relax yet, let's help Skye find her parents and rest.

That's right, William is ready to be a salty fish. Not only because of the impact of the tragic death of the Nash family and Quinn's death in front of him, but also because he was really tired. He always felt that the experiences of the senior time travellers in the novels he read in his previous life were nonsense: they immediately accepted the reality after suddenly traveling through time, were "proficient in multiple languages", and immediately practiced non-stop after obtaining the cultivation method, and made rapid progress. The level of effort and the speed of progress are such that men will be silent and women will cry.

William thinks these are really all nonsense! Not to mention the first two points, the last point is that as an ordinary person, at first he will be curious because he comes into contact with a power that only existed in fantasy before, and then he will work hard to practice for a period of time out of curiosity and desire for Naoko's power. But after the novelty wore off, William said that if this was not the Marvel world and a sense of crisis kept pushing him forward, he would have given up.

Now, after experiencing the blow, and thinking that the latest crisis would have to wait until the New York War several years later, William instantly slacked off. Exercising is really tiring, okay?

What? You mean those villains on Earth? If I, William Jones, don’t provoke them, will they automatically jump in front of me?

The above is the mentality of an ordinary person. There is nothing wrong with this logic! (Yes, this book is a book with such rigorous logic! Oops, I can’t do it anymore, the author feels that he is very awesome! Put your hands on your waist first!)

System: "Host, you can't do this! The world is waiting for you to save! You can't"

William: "Get out of here! Love so and so! You don't have a role in this chapter!"

System: "I haven't appeared for many chapters! Me"

William: "Get out!"

"Hello? William, are you listening?" The shaking hands in front of him and Skye's call brought William, who was addicted to fighting the system, back to his senses.

After sorting out his complicated thoughts, William said, "Ah, I heard it. We are waiting here for Nick Fury to come back, and we will tell him when he comes back."

Skye nodded heavily: "Yeah!"

"By the way, have you told Coulson?" William looked at the excited Skye.

Skye instantly fell down: "Not yet, I haven't figured out what to say yet. Let's wait until you talk to the director."

William: "Yeah."
