Chapter 157 Shocked Pierce
Lingdie and Magneto belong to the same generation. In terms of age, she must be older than Lorna's mother.
But she didn't know what method she used to delay her aging. She looked like she was in her early thirties at most, and she called herself a sister in front of Lorna.
Lorna didn't know her age, so she didn't think it was awkward to call Sister Betsy.
However, she did not realize that Sister Betsie was actually a rich man with a castle.
And according to Carl's meaning, this is just one of the properties of Sister Betsy, and you can imagine how rich she is.
"No wonder I chose to party here..." Looking at the white castle gradually approaching, Raymond couldn't help but sigh.
Although he had long known that Lingdie was a real big dog, the feeling he saw with his own eyes was completely different.
Soon, when the extended phantom slowly stopped, a servant immediately came up to help open the car door.
As soon as Raymond and his friends got off the car, the spirit butterfly, who was the host, had already walked out of the castle.
She was wearing a pure black skirt, her waist perfectly matched her figure, and she also held a black round fan in her hand, giving people a noble and cool feeling.
But when she saw Raymond and the other two, a smile appeared on her face:
“Welcome to my castle—”
"Last time I received hospitality in Richmond, this time, it's my turn to entertain you..."
**********
SHIELD Headquarters.
Pierce, a former director of SHIELD and now a commissioner of the World Security Council, is handling official duties in his office.
At this time, his secretary suddenly told him that there was a visitor, and he didn't think much about it, pressing and holding down the call button:
"Please come in-"
Not long.
A sexy woman wearing a black tight leather jacket that highlighted her graceful figure walked into the office.
When Pierce saw the visitor, his expression changed slightly and immediately put down the work in his hand.
"Miss Stephanie? Why did you suddenly come to me if you have time..." Pierce asked in surprise.
As the former director of SHIELD, he, in terms of identity, was half a level higher than Director Ludan, seemed a little restrained at this moment.
However, what really restricted him was not Stephanie in front of him, but Stephanie's father.
As one of the people who are talking about the ASCHS among the four major factions of Hydra, Pierce may not necessarily obey the orders of those leaders today.
But this only means that the ASCHU can have autonomy on some major issues, but it does not mean that Pierce can personally despise the leaders of Hydra.
Hydra is an organization with very strict hierarchy, and no one can casually commit crimes.
Of course Pierce doesn't do it either.
Stephanie sat opposite Pierce and asked casually: "Nick Fury has discovered you...did you really not notice it at all?"
"What?!" Pierce was suddenly shocked.
I have to say that Stephanie's opening remark really shocked him.
If anyone in SHIELD knows best about Nick Fury, then he must be.
A large part of the reason why the ASCHS has not launched a plan to change the sky is because he has not figured out how many backup plans Fury has left.
It was precisely because of his understanding of Fury that he never easily agreed to do it.
If he hadn't stopped him, Garrett and his radicals might have already launched plans in advance.
But Stephanie suddenly ran over and told him that Fury had discovered that they had a problem?
This is no joke.
If Fury really finds that they have problems, then Efry's ability will immediately make a lot of preparations for response.
This will bring unpredictable risks to their plans and may even lead to failure.
It’s not that he has the ambition to destroy his own power, but that Fury is indeed quite terrifying.
He always felt that Hydra's biggest obstacle in the future was Fury.
Although few people support his argument, even the ASUS faction thinks he is a little too cowardly.
But only he himself knew that this was not a coward, but a judgment based on facts.
Fury is really scary!
"Miss Stephanie, you can't joke around like this..." Pierce said in a deep voice.
"Do you think I'm very idle? I came here to joke with you?" Stephanie gently tapped the tabletop.
Hearing Stephanie say this, Pierce's heart suddenly sank!
It's really exposed?
Now it's a big trouble...
When Fury had already discovered the problem, even if they immediately launched a change of the sky, they might fall into a passive position.
But if you don't start, the longer you delay, the more you may be more unfavorable to them.
This is a completely dilemma.
However, he suddenly thought of a question...How did Stephanie in front of him know about this?
Does this mean that Fury has also been buried by the political parties, so he can know about this?
Stephanie came to him specifically. Does it mean that Old Malik already has a solution?
When Pierce asked this question with a little expectation, Stephanie shook her head and said with a smile:
"It seems you haven't received the latest information yet?"
"Latest information? You mean..."
"My father has stepped down and is no longer the leader of the political faction..." Stephanie said casually.
"Captain Malik retreated?" Pierce did not expect this situation at all and asked in surprise, "Who is the leader of the political faction now?"
"What do you think?" Stephanie looked at him with a smile.
Pierce suddenly woke up and looked at Stephanie in front of her with disbelief.
"I forgot to say that I am not only the leader of the political faction, but also the leader of the scientific research faction... Next, I will also become the only leader of Hydra!" Stephanie said in an unwavering tone.
"this……"
Pierce couldn't help but take a step back.
Because of the sudden and explosive news brought by Stephanie, he was a little indigestible for a while.
He even doubted whether what Stephanie said was true, because it was really horrifying!
If all Stephanie said is true, it means that the two leaders, Old Malik and White Hall, who survived World War II, both retired from the stage.
But why did they retreat at the same time?
Besides, it is reasonable for Old Malik to step down and choose to give his position to his daughter.
Why did White Hall give up his position to Stephanie?
This is not reasonable no matter how you think about it.
But the problem is that Stephanie doesn't seem to need to lie to him like this, because he can confirm the authenticity of the matter by making a few calls.
Why did Stephanie come here to come here specifically and tell such a lie that can be broken with just one poke?
