A retired reincarnator from a certain American film studio

The world belongs to Hydra, and the soul belongs to the witch's heart demon.

This is a deal that Whitehorn has already negotiated with the Witchheart Demon.

The Witchheart will help Whitehorn conquer the world, while Whitehorn will give all control over souls to the Witchheart.

Simply put.

This is simply two rebels heading in opposite directions.

So Dr. White revealed himself.

During this self-destruction, Dr. Bai's face was filled with a smug expression. Seeing the slight surprise on Lu Ke's face in the surveillance video, she thought Lu Ke was frightened by her self-destruction, and her expression instantly became even happier.

but……

Dr. White was unaware that Luke was indeed surprised, but not because Dr. White had revealed the details of Hydra.

Because to Lu Ke and the others in the elevator, Dr. Bai's voice did not sound as she had described.

Dr. White said Hydra, but Luke, Natasha, and the others heard Cobra.

“You will die a painful death under the watchful eyes of Whitehorse, whom you have killed.”

"This is the price you pay for trying to provoke us cobras."

"Not only you, but also your woman Cipher, Zola, who you recruited through Cipher to infiltrate our organization as an inside agent, and your henchman Jack, all died painfully because of you."

"And you cannot stop us from conquering the world, and this world will eventually belong to us, the Cobras."

"Long live the Cobra!"

"..."

Yes.

cobra.

This is why Luke showed a surprised expression.

Is Dr. White a cobra?

Obviously not.

If Dr. White isn't one of Cobra's people, then why would he suddenly say that?

There is only one answer.

It's quite obvious why Dr. White said that; he was referring to the Hydra, but for some reason, it turned into a cobra.

Luke's thoughts raced.

next second.

He understood immediately after hearing what Dr. Bai said next.

After all, when Dr. Bai said that not only he would die, but others would too, he mentioned a name that could be considered a hint.

Zola!

Ah.

Although he didn't know why Zola hadn't come forward but Dr. White had, he knew without a doubt that Zola had secretly altered Dr. White's speech.

Give me back the information that Cipher turned you into an inside agent for Cobra.

WTF!

This old bastard finally learned the meaning of regret when he was about to die.

Lu Ke sneered, somewhat speechless, then raised his hand and, with a bang, smashed through the public address system in the elevator lobby.

moment.

Dr. Bai's unrestrained laughter also disappeared.

Luke expressionlessly holstered his gun, turned around, and saw Natasha and Hawkeye, who were genuinely shocked.

Commanders Victoria Hand and Maria Hill, who were not physically present but had just heard Dr. White's confession, were also shocked.

"Zora!"

"She was talking about Zola just now, wasn't she?"

Maria Hill gasped: "Luc, the Zora that Dr. White mentioned, could it be that Zora, Arnim Zora, the scientist from the Third Reich? I remember you said before that this Cobra isn't the resurrected Hydra, but it does have the shadow of Hydra."

As Hill spoke, Natasha and Hawkeye both looked at Luke.

Luke was brainstorming, trying to figure out how to answer that question.

soon.

Under the watchful eyes of Natasha and Hawkeye, Luke shrugged.

“His name is indeed Anim Zola.”

"what?"

“That’s impossible, Anim Zola is long dead.”

"He did die, from cancer, I know."

"That……"

"I only said that his name is indeed Arnim Zola, not that he is that Zola. The current Zola is just a product of the Zola who uploaded his consciousness to the network before he died. He has all of Arnim Zola's memories, but his logic is fixed."

Luke said this, then thought for a moment and said, "You can think of this Zola as an artificial intelligence like Stark's Jarvis or Osborn's Harvey, except that Zola is probably a bit more advanced."

Hill was utterly shocked.

"Consciousness, uploaded to the network?"

"I was quite surprised when I first found out."

Lu Ke sighed inwardly.

If he weren't currently not profiting from Hydra under his control, and if he had been profitable for a year or two, he would have revealed the truth without hesitation.

but……

Again.

He had finally managed to seize a portion of Hydra's assets, but he hadn't even moved into all those villas in Europe, and he hadn't even recouped his initial investment. If Hydra were to be exposed now...

That means his previous confrontation with Whitehouse, and the current situation, have almost all become sunk costs.

This doesn't work.

Hydra can be exposed, but not when it self-destructs before it has even earned a single penny.

According to Luke's estimation, no matter how Hydra self-destructs, it will at least have to wait until he transfers his dozen or so villas, apartments, several castles, and several estates in Europe to his name before it becomes public knowledge.

at the moment?

No.

Hill, who was at the headquarters of Sanfei Decoration, was thinking rapidly.

soon.

She seemed to realize something.

"So, the fact that you weren't surprised at all when you learned that Dr. Baek in Seoul was a clone means that you already knew the inside story?"

"That's not the case."

"what?"

"I've lost contact with Cipher and Zola."

Lu Ke sighed: "If I had known earlier, would I have stayed in Seoul for a month?"

Hill was slightly taken aback.

That's true...

"That……"

"I originally thought that Cypher and Zola had betrayed me and had sided with Dr. White, Whitehorn, and the Cobra behind them."

"Because of cloning."

“I did hear Zola researching this.”

"I also sponsored some money."

"It's twenty million. The money Nick Fury lost to me last time. I was thinking of adding a little more, but as you know, I haven't been the director for very long. If I want to make money, it won't be that quick."

"So after I saw that Dr. White was a clone, I began to suspect that Zola had betrayed me."

"But betrayal is something that's definitely not easy to say out loud."

"I also have my pride."

"That's why I'm telling you the case can be closed."

"I never expected..."

Luke shook his head: "Judging from what Dr. Bai is saying, it seems they haven't betrayed me, but rather, like Jack and Alexander Pierce, they've been placed under house arrest by Dr. Bai."

Hill felt like his brain wasn't working properly.

"Zora, betrayal, imprisonment, wow, so much information."

"It's not a big deal; it can be summarized in just a few words."

"I have a subordinate named Debbie."

"Debbie's teacher was named Cipher."

"Her teacher was Zola."

"And Cipher is my woman, so through Cipher, I turned Dr. Zola, who was already with Cobra at the time, and gave him a immunity order. As long as Zola helps me catch the mastermind behind Cobra, the FBI will treat him as an informant and exempt Dr. Zola and Cipher from prosecution."

"He agreed."

"Then, at the beginning of this year, through Zola's clues, I successfully found a leader of the Cobra organization named Daniel Whitehorse."

As Luke's thoughts raced, he once again fabricated information that seemed both true and false: "You'll know what happened next. Because I killed their leader, Cobra was furious, which led to the story in Seoul, and now the story we're in."
