"Snap" a document was thrown on the desk, and Alexander, who was already very old.
Pierce's face flushed, as if he had seen the most incredible joke, and he propped his hands on the table, looking at Fury and Merlin standing in front of him with an incredulous gaze, his breathing was a little heavy, and even brought out a murmur.Well, after all, he is an old man, and there will always be some problems with his body."
Are you kidding?"
Pierce asked in a voice of suppressed anger: "I told you to let go and investigate Hydra, and now you tell me that my old friend for many years, the old brother who once went to war with me, a big man who plays a pivotal role in the world political environment, is actually a villain who wants to overthrow the world order?"
Why don't you tell me that the president is actually a hydra?
”"The current situation, Pierce, is much more dangerous than the president is a hydra."
Fury said in a helpless voice: "Calm down, Pierce, I can understand your feelings, but now the facts have proven it...""
To hell with your facts!"
Pierce shouted out of control, "Why don't you say I'm Hydra!"
Hell, Gideon...
I know him better than anyone else, and he can't be a bad guy!
”"He joined me in rejecting the nomination for the Nobel Peace Prize, and we both believe that maintaining peace is a duty, not an honor...
Oh my God!
He is my staunchest ally in the World Security Council, and he is a true pacifist. ”Pierce grabbed his hair, he walked around the office irritably, and he said in a firm tone, "No!
That's not right, you must be mistaken.Examine!
Looking it up again, I don't believe it. ”Fury gave Merlin a helpless look, Merlin shook his head, and he reached out and threw a Axifah seal on Pierce, allowing him to slowly calm down.Fury also reached out and touched his blindfolded eyes, and he whispered, "Calm down, Pierce, calm down, let's talk slowly." ”There was a hint of spiritual inducement in Fury's voice, a secret that he had hidden so deeply that only Merlin knew about.He is also a superpower, and when the cosmic cube imitated by A.I.M. exploded, Fury was also affected by the weak power to modify reality.But his ability is somewhat frustrated.Fury's psychic induction can only be fully released after the blindfold is removed, but the problem is that in most cases, Fury cannot take off the blindfold.After all, he claimed that his eyes had been completely blinded in the battle with the aliens, and he couldn't punch himself in the face.This leads to Fury's ability as if it has been sealed, and he rarely has a chance to play.Under the double "persuasion" of Merlin and Fury, the angry and even a little anxious Pierce finally calmed down again, and the old man sat weakly in his chair, and he looked at the newly printed documents scattered on the table in front of him without saying a word, which revealed a terrible fact.It's so scary that when you think about it, your skull hurts like you're about to explode.Merlin and Fury didn't bother Pierce in his thoughts, they knew that the president of the Security Council in front of them might take some time to come to terms with this cold and nonsensical fact.After a few minutes, Pierce irritably pushed the paper in his hand away, and he took off his reading glasses, as if his spine had been completely broken, and his whole mood became very low.He looked up, looked at Merlin and Fury, and said in a gloomy tone, as if he had been hit hard, "Do you know how terrible your accusation is?
”"We know."
Fury also had a headache and said, "About Gideon.
We have also heard of the horrific political background of His Excellency Malik. ”"No, you don't know."
Pierce looked at the photograph on the paper, and he whispered, "The so-called 'political background' you know is just a tip of the iceberg that Gideon's family hides beneath the surface of the sea. ”"It's only when you truly become friends with him that you can truly understand how much energy Gideon has."
Pierce said tiredly: "His family was already a famous family when the Habsburgs ruled Europe, a branch of his family even served as king of France for a short time, and the revolution did not destroy the power of that family, and now in this era, many politicians who are active in European politics have a weak blood connection with Gideon...
Little did you know that Gideon spends three days a year taking his daughter to visit the Queen. ”Pierce looked up at Fury and Merlin, and said, "Do you know what Stephanie called Queen?"
Hehe, don't guess, you won't want to know the answer. ”"What you don't know is that after Gideon's family came to North America, behind every presidential election in our country, there is a shadow of Gideon's family meddling.""
The previous president had an all-night conversation with Gideon at his estate before his inaugural address.And now the hot candidates who are preparing to run for the presidency are simply like pugs, and each of them is eagerly waiting for Gideon's private invitation..."
Pierce stood up tremblingly, and as usual, he walked to the floor-to-ceiling window of his office, looked at the bustling street below, and whispered: "In our country, the president is just a puppet and a signing machine...""
There are shadows behind this country that ordinary people will never have access to, the elites, the country is kept afloat by compromise and deals, and Gideon.
Malik is one of the shadows sitting on the throne. ”"Let me tell you a fact, my poor boys."
Pierce's voice grew deeper and deeper: "When I tried to put S.H.I.E.L.D. under the management of the World Security Council, that proposal was opposed by many parliamentarians. ”"We try to maintain the world order, but not all countries want to see an organization that can dictate any international affairs, especially those whose internal situations are not very stable, and they do not want their already troublesome situations to be interfered by external forces.""
I had just become a councillor, and I was a soft-spoken person, and I tried to push for this resolution, but no one paid any attention to me."
Pierce rubbed his eyes as he said things to his most trusted subordinates that no one knew about: "I was really desperate.And guess what?
”"Thirty minutes before the last vote on the proposal, Gideon came to me, and he asked me a few questions in his office, and he asked me, what kind of responsibilities does S.H.I.E.L.D. have in my plan?
I replied, maintain world order. ”"Then he asked me, how can I guarantee that S.H.I.E.L.D. will not become a violent machine that politicians abuse to meddle in the affairs of other countries?
I told him that I would watch S.H.I.E.L.D., and that if something went wrong with S.H.I.E.L.D., I would be fully responsible. ”Gideon said, well, he wants to believe me in the friendship between the two of us in the past, we went to Vietnam together, I went to war at that time, he went to gild, but we had a good relationship...
Anyway, Gideon asked me to go back to the meeting and wait for news, and I thought he was just joking. ”Pierce smiled bitterly, he turned around, and said to Fury, "At that time, the vast majority of parliamentarians were against this proposal, and I didn't think it would pass at all."
But 30 minutes, only 30 minutes, Gideon made a few phone calls, talked to some people, chatted ...
Then the resolution was passed. ”"Many of the members of the House of Governors who were adamantly opposed to the S.H.I.E.L.D. proposal abstained from voting, and the remaining ones...
Unanimous vote!
”"It was at that time that I realized what a terrible mobilization energy my old friend who had always been hidden, and I was able to become the chairman, and I was able to sit in this office and talk to you all about it, all because Gideon was behind me, Fury, Merlin!
Do you understand?
”"Without him, S.H.I.E.L.D. wouldn't be where it is now!""
Without him, we simply would not have had the opportunity to do so much for the preservation of world order ...
And now, you tell me, that the man who has been helping us is actually our worst enemy..."
Pierce sighed, and said, "If Gideon is indeed Hydra, then can those of us who have received his help and been supported by him also be considered Hydra's periphery?"
If he were Hydra, then we, you, Merlin, and I, we would all be Hydra!
”There was silence in the office.Aside from his own work, Merlin generally doesn't pay much attention to politics, and he doesn't know a lot about the World Security Council, to be honest, but Fury can understand Pierce's concerns.After the three of them were silent for a long time, Fury spoke, and he said in a low tone, "But now that we've found the evidence, Pierce, you've seen that evidence too."

Gideon.
Malik has such a background and energy only because his family has guarded a secret that has lasted for more than 3,000 years, and they are a group of the craziest cultists in history, who want to summon an evil god back into the world. ”"Any mediocrity will become great after 3,000 years of perseverance, at least on the surface, Pierce."
Merlin also advised, "But bad things are bad things, and the blackstone hidden under the Gideon family castle proves all this.Over the years, the corpses that his family had sent to the hive world to die were all this a testament to.The innocents who died at the hands of Hydra, the Inhumans who were brutally killed by Whitehall, the innocents who were sent to the laboratory by A.I.M., those sins, also have his share. ”"He disguised himself as a pacifist, and that didn't wash away the blood on his hands."
Level 9 agent whispered, "Luckily, we were able to solve the hive instead of allowing this horrible evil god to return to the human world...
The illusion of the hubris they have held on to for more than 3,000 years has been shattered, but the final judgment is yet to come. ”"Merlin, I appreciate your insistence on maintaining order and peace."
Pierce seemed a little ashamed, he didn't dare to meet Merlin's eyes, and he said, "But this time, I can't support you, not because I have fallen to evil, not because I have renounced my faith, but because part of the foundation of the order we protect is based on what you see as evil. ”"I can't authorize you to investigate or arrest Gideon, this will directly cause a major earthquake in world politics, and if Gideon chooses to fight back, then a terrible chaos will befall you.""
A lot of people will be involved, a lot of innocent people, they have nothing to do with these conspiracies, they have nothing to do with these sins, but they can lose their lives because of our actions."
Pierce's tone grew more and more painful: "I'm sorry, Merlin, I'm an old man who let you down.But I can't...
I can't disrupt the order we've done everything we can to maintain good order, he might be damned in, but...
Leave him to time to judge. ”Pierce said almost pleadingly to Merlin and Fury: "Gideon is 77 years old this year, he's as old as me, and he's just as old as I am not going to live long."
The mad visions he and his followers had held on to for more than 3,000 years would be completely dissipated with his death. ”"Waiting for death in despair and loss may be the best punishment for him.""
Five years, 10 years at most, it will all subside, and those of us who know the truth will find solace, justice will only be late, but it will not be absent," Pierce said.I beg you, don't touch that horrible bomb that would involve half the world, as if it hadn't happened..."
Fury didn't answer, and he could see that he was a little shaken.After really learning about Gideon from Pierce.
After Malik's horrific political background and complex social relations, he had to admit that perhaps Pierce's proposal was the most appropriate.People are dying like lights out, plus the hive has been killed by Merlin, the last hope of the ancient hydra has been dashed, and the faith of that organization has collapsed, maybe...
This is the end of this matter, and it is best to let time make a final judgment."
Smack" is thrown in front of Fury and Pierce's eyes.It was Merlin's agent credentials.Merlin's expression changed from serious to stubborn, and then from stubborn to calm, and he sighed, and said, "I can understand your hesitation, so let me deal with it." ”"Merlin, you—" Pierce tried to persuade, but Merlin didn't want to hear it anymore.Stroking the Hidden Blade fixed on his left arm, he whispered, "I was told that darkness can do things that light cannot, and that there is another creed in this world besides judgment in the sun. ”"I couldn't understand the arrogance of those arrogant people, but now I understand...""
I'll deal with it, this has nothing to do with S.H.I.E.L.D., nothing to do with world order, nothing to do with politics, it's just a private act.""
I have understood the way forward I should take, and I have seen the morality that I should keep.""
I have to be an example for the young people who walk in the dark...
I must keep you in the faith, and I must tell everyone that evil will be punished, and evil will be punished...""
I see the bones in the desert of despair, I see the evil that has lasted for 3,000 years, I have chosen to bear the price of justice, this is my war with Hydra, I can't turn a blind eye to it, I'm sorry...
But I have to.I've got to cut off that last head...""
Merlin, don't be impulsive!"
Fury reaches out and tries to grab the retreating Merlin, but..."
Hum" Merlin's figure disappeared in the scattered shadows, he looked at Fury and Pierce, and said in a voice that only he could hear: "All things are false, all things are allowed..."
