Chapter 196 Red Skull
White House - Former Site.
This was originally the presidential palace, the residence where Eagle Country handled people's affairs, and it was also one of the symbols of the country.
After Hydra blasted through the defenses here and forcibly occupied it, the White House became the official residence of the Red Skull. Perhaps it was because this place allowed the Red Skull to relive the good times of the past. After moving to the White House, he Almost never leave here.
He didn't even repair the surrounding environment, and the surroundings of the White House still maintained their post-war appearance.
The Red Skull is not afraid of his location being exposed at all. After the super criminals destroyed the heroes, there is no force in the world that can compete with the Red Skull and his Hydra.
Maybe Dr. Doom counts as one, but Red Skull doesn't care. Since he destroyed those magical artifacts and found ways to cut off the relationship between many magical dimensions and reality, Doom has almost nothing to fear.
Doctor Doom's power comes from his technology and magic. Doom, who spans two skill trees, is very powerful. Otherwise, he would not be known as one of the heroes' most powerful enemies.
But after the old days, the connection with the magical dimension was lost, which was equivalent to cutting off one of Doom's arms. Relying on the incomplete remaining magic energy and the destruction of robots, Doom could be called a powerful lord, but He's not much of a threat to the Red Skull.
Nowadays, Hydra members are all over the world, and there are countless spies and agents in any force. Just as the Red Skull said, cut off one head and two will grow. Hydra will never be eliminated. .
In the conference room, Red Skull sat silently on the main seat.
Next to him, Chief of General Staff Tobias was holding a file bag and reporting on major events that occurred in the jurisdiction.
".So, Bullseye is missing?"
The Red Skull clasped his fingers together, spoke calmly, and interrupted Tobias' report in a very soft voice.
"With all due respect, Your Majesty the Head of State, you know Bullseye's strength. Compared to agents like the Winter Soldier, Bullseye is better at assassination than anyone else, not to mention that they have all been transformed by the Necromancer Lock. "
Tobias said cautiously, for fear of angering the Red Skull. Based on his understanding of the Red Skull, whenever the other party behaves more calmly, it often means that he has extremely dangerous thoughts in his heart.
"You want to say that it is very 'reasonable' for my second best ace to kill my first ace?" Red Skull tilted his head and looked at Tobias.
Sensing the Red Skull's gaze, Tobias felt a lot more pressure on his body.
"Your Majesty the Head of State, what I mean is that Bullseye has been following you for so many years. He must have his reasons for doing this. Maybe we can start from this aspect and investigate it carefully."
"But he's missing, isn't he?" Red Skull said calmly. "I gave him a chance. I gave him many chances. I sent many people to die. I just hope he can figure out what he is doing."
"I can understand your kindness, but I think I have some special ideas on this matter." Tobias said softly.
"Tell me."
Tobias stood up and took out some papers and photos from the bottom of the file bag, then placed them respectfully in front of the Red Skull, and then he spoke.
"We all know that since that incident, many old friends have disappeared. They seem to feel that after losing their heroes, life is meaningless. I believe that Bullseye is also one of them."
Red Skull's eyes casually scanned the documents on the table. Most of them were the transcripts of Mounted Police from various places. There were also records of cases by Hydra detectives. Suddenly, Red Skull's eyes were attracted by the figure in the photo.
It was taken from the surveillance of the 'Murder Playground'. The photo clearly captured a strong old man, and he was holding a bow and arrow tightly in his hand. Judging from the blood stains on his body, this guy looked like Just after a bloody battle.
Picking up the photo, Red Skull's face became a little uncertain.
"This person is."
"Clint Barton, registered code name: Hawkeye, also used the name Ronin to act. Before we discovered him, he had already committed several murders. It is understood that the people he killed were those who were killed in that year. A member of the Thunder Task Force." Tobias said solemnly.
"I have an impression of him, and this also makes me have more questions."
The Red Skull put the photo back on the table, and then tapped a few times on the electronic keyboard hidden on the table.
Tobias, who knew what the Red Skull was going to do, bowed slightly, then slowly took a few steps back.
Sizzle.
The next moment, a blue holographic projection appeared.
"Tell me why there is an Avenger making trouble in my territory. But you claimed that he was dead."
"I believe the word I used back then was 'destroy'."
The transparent holographic screen lit up, and the figure of a burly man wearing a purple striped mask appeared in front of the Red Skull.
And this man is none other than Baron Zemo, one of the generals under the Red Skull and a high-ranking Hydra executive.
"Now is an important stage in the development of Hydra. I have many projects waiting to be promoted. I can't spare enough manpower to deal with this old Avenger."
The Red Skull's tone was very frivolous, but Baron Zemo didn't believe that the Red Skull would really be as unavailable as he said. Obviously, the Red Skull was tactfully letting himself deal with this trouble.
If it were anything else, Baron Zemo really wouldn't necessarily pay attention to the Red Skull. After all, the emperor was far away, and the Red Skull's hands couldn't touch him, Baron Zemo, so he was not afraid of falling out with the Red Skull.
But this time is different. Hawkeye was originally allowed to survive by Baron Zemo privately.
Baron Zemo's original idea was to humiliate this old enemy who had caused him a lot of losses, but now Hawkeye took the initiative. Since he chose to seek death, Baron Zemo would naturally handle the matter personally.
"Don't worry, Führer."
Baron Zemo spoke.
"It's just an old man with a bow and arrow. How much trouble can he cause?"
After hanging up the projection call, a mocking sneer appeared on Red Skull's face.
"Really, an old guy using a bow and arrow is not the point"
Muttering to himself, Red Skull brought Tobias's file in front of him again. Looking at the information described above, as well as the accompanying videos and pictures, Red Skull became serious.
".But if a 'hero organization' from another universe pops up on my territory,
That's serious enough. "
