Phillips couldn't help but swear.
Peggy Carter's heart skipped a beat as well.
The thing they least wanted to happen still happened.
"This is amazing! We could accidentally destroy the world!"
Phillips looked at Howard Stark and shook his head repeatedly. "Stark, I knew it was a mistake to agree to your request."
“Stark, although saying this won’t help much, we’ve really messed up this time,” Peggy Carter said anxiously and worriedly.
Howard Stark looked helpless and had no idea what to say.
He doesn't want to destroy the world either!
He just wanted to do his research quietly, so how did he end up making such a mess?
“Stark, things have completely spiraled out of our control. Get ready, come with me to the Department of Defense.”
After a long silence, Phillips finally spoke to Howard Stark with a solemn expression.
Howard Stark glanced at Phillips, then at Peggy Carter beside him, and could only shrug helplessly: "At this point, there's nothing we can do."
The SHIELD base was razed, and the military suffered heavy losses. This matter has attracted the attention of the higher-ups, and even the "Smiling Boy" may have been alerted.
It's impossible to hide it from them.
Moreover, the entire world may be facing a huge threat. If Megatron really creates a Decepticon army, how will the human army deal with it?
This matter needs to be addressed as soon as possible.
Chapter 189 That Forbidden Being Whose Name Alone Terrifies People
The Hexagon.
Office of the Minister of National Defense.
"When I led the rapid response force to the Strategic Homeland Defense, Attack and Logistics Agency base, almost all the agents in the camp had been killed, and only Agent Carter was still leading less than ten agents in a desperate struggle."
"There were a total of eight 'robots' that attacked the camp at the time."
"The situation was dire, so I immediately led my troops into battle and engaged in a fierce firefight with the eight robots."
"The operation lasted a total of 21 minutes. 53 of our soldiers were killed, two armed helicopters were destroyed, and two tactical assault vehicles, two armored vehicles and one tank were also destroyed one after another."
……
Colonel Statham, along with Major General Carlos, who had previously been in charge of the overall command, was reporting to the Secretary of Defense—or more accurately, the new Secretary of Defense—on the brutal battle that had taken place at the S.H.I.E.L.D. base.
"Jesus Christ!"
Even someone as high-ranking as the Minister of Defense couldn't help but gasp after hearing this.
Such terrifying power, yet it only took twenty-one minutes to completely cripple him?
Did something go wrong?
That's only eight robots!
"So how did you survive in the end?"
After the Secretary of Defense finished his remarks, he remembered a very crucial question and stared intently at Colonel Statham as he asked it.
"It's a mutant named Rorschach..." Colonel Statham reported truthfully.
"Who?"
Unexpectedly, the Minister of Defense let out a loud shout, and his face turned pale.
Colonel Statham looked closely and even saw that the Secretary of Defense seemed to be sweating a little!
Colonel Statham and Major General Carlos beside him couldn't help but exchange a glance, both seeing a hint of astonishment in each other's eyes.
Who exactly is this mutant?
The Minister of Defense was so frightened by just mentioning a name?
How could I not be scared?
The current Minister of Defense was right there in that meeting room when he witnessed Rorschach massacre a group of high-ranking American officials.
This includes his ex!
That hellish scene, that demonic face, left the Minister of Defense with a psychological shadow that he could never shake off for the rest of his life.
"Cough cough!"
A dry cough rang out; it was the Minister of Defense deliberately clearing his throat to cover up his embarrassment.
However, the Secretary of Defense did not ask how Major Statham escaped, because he already knew.
With that freak involved, rescuing Major Statham should be no problem at all.
However, there was one thing the Minister of Defense didn't quite understand: what was that guy doing there? He didn't seem like a particularly helpful person.
Why did Rorschach go there?
The Secretary of Defense asked Major Statham a question.
really.
The Secretary of Defense knows Rorschach.
Major Statham and Major General Carlos immediately understood. Rorschach, it seems, is someone the Minister of Defense has been paying close attention to for a long time. They must find out who this big shot is when they get back.
"It must have been to save Howard Stark. The first thing he did when he arrived at the scene was to ask about Stark's safety."
Major Statham answered truthfully.
really!
The defense minister was not surprised.
Ever since Rorschach caused a scene at the Pentagon, he had been thoroughly investigated by the higher-ups, and his relationship with Howard Stark was naturally impossible to hide.
The Secretary of Defense then asked Major Statham some more questions, and he basically understood the details of the battle that took place at the S.H.I.E.L.D. base.
Except for one most crucial issue.
"What exactly are those robots? Did S.H.I.E.L.D. create them?"
The Minister of Defense made this perfectly reasonable guess.
Like anyone who knew that S.H.I.E.L.D. knew Howard Stark, he instinctively suspected Howard Stark.
After all, in terms of technological prowess, who can compare to Howard Stark?
This happened at a S.H.I.E.L.D. base, making everything seem perfectly logical.
“I asked Agent Carter about this once, but she was vague. However, I’m sure she knows where those robots came from.”
Colonel Statham spoke to the Secretary of Defense with great certainty.
"Damn it, what have the Starks done!"
The defense minister couldn't help but mutter a curse under his breath, then picked up the phone and dialed a number. "Have you gotten in touch with Phillips and the others?"
"Not yet, Minister!"
"Dry!"
Dang Dang Dang!
But then there was a knock on the door, and a secretary-like person pushed it open. Behind the secretary stood two familiar faces.
Howard Stark and Phillips.
"minister……"
The secretary was about to explain the situation to the Minister of Defense when the Minister waved his hand directly at Phillips and his companion, saying, "Jesus Christ, you've finally shown up."
Phillips then led Howard Stark into the office.
“Phillips, you know, all of America is waiting for your explanation!”
The Secretary of Defense looked at Phillips and said seriously.
That's right.
Although Phillips doesn't have much of a presence in Marvel, he is actually the boss of S.H.I.E.L.D. at this stage.
Otherwise, how could a mere playboy scientist and a female agent from the UK possibly manage such a massive organization as S.H.I.E.L.D.?
It was entirely due to Phillips' military background.
So, we've arrived here now.
Phillips shrugged and then called out to Howard Stark beside him, "Stark."
“Minister…”
Howard Stark then told the Secretary of Defense everything about the Decepticons' true identity and the existence of the AllSpark.
Of course, some artistic embellishments have been made where necessary.
In short, according to Howard Stark's account, Megatron's resurrection was not due to S.H.I.E.L.D.'s negligence, but rather because S.H.I.E.L.D. had foreseen the Decepticons' plot and thus took the foresight to begin planning ahead in an attempt to stop them.
But that's all that's beyond our capabilities.
S.H.I.E.L.D. sacrificed so many lives and even razed their base to the ground to maintain peace on Earth. They are not only innocent, but heroes.
However, the Secretary of Defense had no time to verify the story's authenticity, because at this moment, he was completely stunned by the Decepticons and the AllSpark.
I initially thought it was just a case of "technology spiraling out of control," nothing more.
And now you're telling me this is an alien invasion?
“Stark, I want you to repeat what you just said to the President!”
The Secretary of Defense spoke in a deep voice to Howard Stark, then picked up the phone with a serious and anxious expression.
