Just a moment ago, Luke had his eyes tightly closed.
One of the two attackers rushed over to rescue Pierce and punched Luke in the head at the same time.
Unfortunately, this kind of surprise attack was effective on Natasha, but it didn't feel like a "surprise attack" at all on Luke.
Even though he was now using primary hypnosis and hallucinations to deal with Pierce, he was already accustomed to three-thread operations and was still idle, with plenty of spare computing power.
With only two clones deployed, his reaction speed far exceeded that of the attacker.
Almost instantly, he threw a backhand punch with his right hand.
The punch was extremely fast but not very powerful, it could be considered a backhand jab.
Only a master of physical skills like him could deliver such a strange and smooth punch.
The attacker's fist collided with this fist, and then he felt a black screen in front of his eyes.
With this punch, Luke struck first.
He even slightly delayed the timing of his punch, just in time for the opponent to be unable to change direction due to the force.
So the fist does not need too much force, just wait for the super-fast attacker to come to you.
In fact, the opponent's face did hit Luke's fist, and his lower body ran forward by inertia, successfully hanging himself flat in the air.
Snap!
The man's neck made a slight cracking sound, but it was crystal clear to Luke's ears.
Bang!
The attacker fell flat on his face, and Luke slowly lowered his fist.
He was so focused that he didn't bother wasting time on a dead person, and once again focused on dealing with Pierce who was in a hallucination.
Natasha on the other side turned her head after another two seconds, and all she could see was the dead body of the attacker.
The file transfer began and she no longer had to stand there to operate it.
After waiting a moment, she checked on the attacker, who was still twitching.
The equipment this man is wearing looks a bit like Iron Armor, but if you look closely you'll notice a big difference.
At least it is not fully covered, and various joints and places that need to move are exposed, which obviously cannot solve the problem of the stretchability of full-coverage armor.
In this respect, it is a level below the Iron Armor and the Batsuit.
Secondly, the appearance of this set of equipment is rather ugly. It is obvious that it is still in the stage of considering practicality first and has not taken into account the aesthetics.
This once again proves that the technological gap between it and the Iron Armor may be more than two generations.
You know, even if the bat armor is mainly considered for practicality, its appearance is still acceptable, it just can't be compared with that of the young master.
Natasha was still observing when she heard a whoosh and a figure rushed over.
Before she could react, a big foot kicked the attacker on the head.
Snap!
The attacker's neck was twisted at a strange angle, and Natasha only heard one sentence: "It's just a junk product. Hurry up and look at the information I gave you. There are three aerospace carriers."
Natasha looked up suddenly: "What?"
But at this moment, she was the only living person left in the office. Pierce, who had just "looked at" Wuming, also had his head hanging diagonally on his chest. He was already dead.
But she didn't care about Pierce's death anymore. He was dead.
She opened the document she had just received on her brown sunglasses. Her face changed drastically after just a few glances. She quickly notified Hill in the communications room: "There are three aerospace carriers..."
Hill's voice came from the headset: "I have seen them."
Natasha: “What?”
Hill: "They are taking off. There are two more docks in DC, but they don't belong to SHIELD, and we didn't know about them beforehand."
Natasha was speechless.
In recent months, their attention has been focused on Hydra within S.H.I.E.L.D., and they have not paid any attention to other departments in the United States. It is normal for them to be slow to react.
Moreover, as the number of deaths of Hydra members within SHIELD increases, the World Security Council and US officials always cause trouble for unknown reasons.
Now it seems that Hydra is obviously not a fool.
They mobilized various relationships to distract Nick Fury's attention so that SHIELD had no time to take care of other things, while secretly "cloning" two helicarriers.
What is the difference between one and three
Think about the last battle in New York. If the Chitauri had only one mothership, Luke would have been killed with one shot and then gone home to play.
Even in an ordinary war, two teams can use more tactics than one team and have a higher tolerance for errors.
Even if you don't use any tactics, you can use the kingly way to crush all opponents with your strength.
According to Tony's estimate of the three generations of aerospace carriers, these three carriers can send all the important cities on the east and west coasts of the United States into space.
If successful, the specific death toll would not be much higher than the Battle of New York—but it would certainly be no less.
Once the American target is launched into space, the last three motherships will cross the Atlantic, sweep across Europe, and finally explode in Asia.
The horror of this plan does not lie in who is killed or how many people are killed, but in killing as many "key people" as possible.
For example, according to Dr. Zola's algorithm, Michelle Gable in the White House is not a key person, and only a small part of the staff is included.
However, the bosses of certain capital groups are the first priority target.
Many groups need a strong leader.
For example, Tony Stark has long been out of charge of the management of Stark Group, but if he dies, Pepper will soon lose her power as president, and the group will inevitably fall into internal strife.
In other words, this insight program exists to clean out various "soul figures".
Without these integrated figures in charisma, ability and resources, the world will surely become a mess.
Only by disrupting the order of peaceful society can Hydra rise wildly in the chaos.
Importantly, the Insights program is not overly demanding.
As long as 10% of the cleanup target is completed, the world will enter a state of frequent chaos, and Hydra's basic goal will be achieved.
20% is good, 50% is perfect.
It's just a simple avalanche effect.
The less snow that is pushed initially, the slower the reaction will increase, and it may even fail to spread.
If we can really eliminate 50% of the key figures, we will inevitably exceed the threshold of the avalanche reaction, and the world will instantly fall into uncontrollable chaos that will last for a long time.
These were all what Luke had just read out from Pierce's mind quickly using hypnosis and hallucinations.
It turns out that Pierce is not that stupid.
Apart from the two transformed death warriors, his biggest trump card is actually himself.
It's just a life detection activation procedure, of course the minister has to use it on himself.
If anyone really shoots him to death, the SHIELD mothership will go berserk, ensuring that the SHIELD headquarters will be sent into space as soon as possible, and then the DC Special Zone will be sent into space as well.
Unfortunately, the cunning Pierce met Luke and obtained the relevant information directly from his mind.
Before killing Pierce, Luke used the storage space to fold and unfold the watch-shaped detector and put it on his wrist.
And his skin has been switched to Pierce's genes, so the detector cannot detect Pierce's dead ball.
There's no time to change programs or anything like that now.
There are already two aerospace carriers in space. If we don’t bring them down, something big will happen.
