The DC headquarters of SHIELD was in chaos at the moment: "Send support immediately. Let the Maryland police rush over with sirens on."
"The rescue team will board the plane in three minutes and is expected to arrive within ten minutes."
"It's too late. They cut off the recorder."
Many staff members paused, looking at the camera footage going darker, and a bad feeling welled up in their hearts.
"Wait, it's not cut off. It's blocked. They just blocked the recorder. I can still hear the sound." A staff member with headphones suddenly shouted.
After a moment of silence, SHIELD immediately became noisy again.
The other party did not fire again and the recorder was still working, so SHIELD could still judge the situation at the scene through the sound.
These twelve colleagues were most likely only injured, not necessarily dead.
Nick Fury came hurriedly and immediately found a bald man and asked, "Has the rescue team been sent out?"
Sitwell immediately replied: "Captain Rumlow has led the two most elite teams to the helipad."
Nick Fury nodded and said nothing.
Rumlow is the leader of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s rapid-response special forces unit.
If ordinary agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. are understood as patrolmen, then Rumlow is the SWAT captain of S.H.I.E.L.D.
The two direct teams he leads are also the most elite in the rapid reaction force.
Except for some special members, this is the strongest force of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s regular forces.
Even Nick Fury couldn't send out stronger men at once, after all, he was short of manpower now.
Five minutes later, another message came, making the room suddenly silent: "Two fast teams heading to the Vermont border were ambushed, six people have fallen... No, eight. Wait, eleven..."
The staff who received the news were terrified. They could only stare at the screen of the battlefield recorder, listen to the cries for help on the team channel, and repeat the situation reflexively.
Because these two fast teams... are going to catch Joker.
Nick Fury's face changed drastically: "Tell Rumlow to change direction and go directly to Vermont. We must catch the Joker."
The director, whose face was as dark as the bottom of a pot and who seemed very angry, was a little suspicious at the moment: Am I overthinking? Isn't Joker an actor hired by Hydra
There are two teams of twenty-four people in total who are arresting Joker, but he spent some time to arrange them, and most of them are highly suspected of being Hydra.
Hydra will not allow such members to leave. After all, without the skin of SHIELD, they are at most a group of powerful mercenaries.
However, they have been working normally inside, and it is almost impossible to kill them without arousing suspicion from other Hydras.
At the same time, Brock Rumlow on the Quinjet grabbed the armrest of the chair tightly, feeling the super-large turn of the fighter, and clenched his teeth.
Most of the two teams on the Vermont border are his trusted aides. If they were lost at the hands of Joker, his control over the rapid reaction force would be reduced by at least one third.
Although the total number of people in the headquarters' rapid response force is more than 400, it is easy for elite teams to make meritorious contributions and be promoted. Once they have served enough years, they can be transferred to the squadron to become squad leader or deputy.
If eighteen people are dispersed, they can influence a quick response team of about one hundred people, and then slowly infiltrate and erode them.
Now they have been wiped out by Joker, so there is no point in doing this.
…
No matter how suspicious the two sides in SHIELD are, a "massacre" is taking place on the border between Vermont and Canada.
The so-called "massacre" is because those who fell were not dead.
Luke wanted these people to be disposable "performance props", so of course he couldn't kill them here.
Therefore, he waited until a "brown bear" appeared silently next to the two teams and slapped two of the team members away with two slaps.
Seeing that most of the attention of the fast team members was attracted by the "brown bear", he, who was high up in a tree, opened fire at the same time, and kept reminding: "Shadow Bear, don't use too much force. If you kill or injure it, it will be difficult to use it again."
The "brown bear" that was flying around in the field paused for a moment and shook its head a little dissatisfied - the direction of the head shaking was obviously expressing its dissatisfaction with him.
Luke fired two more shots slowly, then continued, "Shadow Bear sounds good, yeah, someone will definitely like it."
The members of the Fast Team were yelling, "It's not a bear, it's a disguise!"
As soon as the words fell, a curled-up shadow bear rolled out and knocked two team members away.
Luke's mouth curled up and he pulled the trigger again: "That's right, she's human! Well, can't she have the power of a bear?"
Of course Shadow Bear heard this, and he curled up his body and kicked a big tree.
With a loud bang, the whole tree fell down, but the round body flew back in circles and knocked away two approaching team members.
Luke was mowing the grass when Selina sent a message: "The package has been packed, come and receive it."
With two shots, he knocked down two more people. He replied, "Clear up the traces. You and Skullhead will evacuate immediately according to the plan."
Selina replied, "Received, evacuation has begun," and said nothing more.
Twenty minutes later, two Quinjet fighters came flying rapidly.
After circling the woods for a few times, a plane landed in a clearing in the forest and a group of people got off.
The other one circled and expanded outward in all directions, searching for the possible Joker and his accomplices.
Within S.H.I.E.L.D., various orders have been issued in succession.
Checking whether there are any vehicles or aircraft passing through the nearby airspace, checking nearby surveillance, blocking nearby roads, etc. are all steps that have been planned in advance.
Nick Fury just stood coldly in the lobby of S.H.I.E.L.D. with his hands behind his back.
No one dared to talk to him, and everyone could see that the director was so angry that his body was about to burst.
In fact, Nick Fury really wanted to grin right now - grinning from ear to ear, if Maryland hadn't also lost a team of agents.
It's a pity that Rumlow was not captured together! It was a waste of time to send him there, and Joker didn't even conduct a second ambush. A certain black-hearted boiled egg muttered in his heart, and he had already thought about other things in his mind.
It seemed that there was now an opportunity to add sand to the rapid response force! He thought silently: As long as a few dozen people with less suspicion were mixed in, it would not be so convenient for Hydra to use this force to do something.
Simply put, Hydra doesn't know that Nick Fury knows, so they can't make a big deal about eliminating dissidents.
And Nick Fury wanted Hydra to know that he didn't know, so he couldn't let them go to their deaths in a high-profile manner.
Both sides are cautious.
Nick Fury is not sure who Hydra is, so he can only add some less suspicious people into the team.
Once the other party wants to take action, they must kill these non-Hydra agents to gain control.
But killing colleagues will undoubtedly greatly undermine the trust of others.
At that point, non-HYDRA agents would be wary of them.
Doing this will not save S.H.I.E.L.D., but it will increase the chances of dragging Hydra to death. There is a cold light flashing in the one eye of Lu Dan. He hates others treating him as a fool the most.
