Chapter 147 Insight Plan (next chapter half an hour later)
After leaving SHIELD, Peter returned to Queens, and Bant came to Primus alone.
As expected.
Not long after he arrived in Primus, Tony Stark arrived.
Tony Stark was still polite. After a brief moment of anger, Tony became much more sober. He didn't even put on his armor, but drove the A8 to park in front of Primus' door.
Looking at the two Iron Soldiers that had been transformed into guard dogs, Tony walked over without fear.
Sure enough, the soldier did not respond.
He realized immediately that Bant was probably waiting for him.
“There’s not even a reception desk?”
Primus was as empty as ever.
At this time, Eunice's voice sounded on the radio: "Tony Stark, sir is in the convalescent area, please move to the elevator."
"Electronic reception, that's fine too."
He nodded, and then said to Jarvis in the headset: "Jarvis, I suddenly feel that female voices sound more comfortable. How about changing your personality?"
"Sir, technically, I have no gender."
Jarvis didn't care about this at all.
The sanatorium area was on a very low floor and the elevator reached its destination quickly.
When Tony walked out, he almost thought he was in a hospital. There was large areas of white everywhere, and even Bant was pretending to be wearing a white coat over his clothes.
"You changed your career to become a doctor?"
"How about it? Do you want me to treat you too?" Bant raised his head and pointed at Tony's chest in the air.
"no."
Although new elements were replaced, Tony did not remove the reactor.
The key is that he doesn't dare to have the operation.
To perform the operation, the reactor has to be shut down. Once the reactor is shut down, the shrapnel will flow to his heart, and if the shrapnel flows to his heart, he will die.
So, surgery = death.
That's Tony's logic.
"You should know why I'm looking for you."
He pulled up a chair and sat down, looking around and asked, "When are you going to hire more people?"
"Eunice can handle most of the work," Bant said.
"It's not a problem of artificial intelligence, but providing jobs in this way is good for Primus's reputation. More importantly, you don't even have a beautiful receptionist here!"
Tony Stark is angry that he doesn't fight back!
Such a big company, and it also has a nursing home, must have hired a hundred or eighty beauties, half of them wearing suits as office ladies, and the other half wearing white or pink nurse uniforms, right?
Work ability?
Work efficiency?
Is that something important?
"No matter how capable Eunice is, she can't help you handle all the problems." Tony winked mischievously, speaking with the tone of someone who has experienced it.
"Don't tell me you're still a little boy."
Bant sneered and said, "Come and tell me about your experience after you have tried the aliens."
"Aliens... So, you really have something to do with the Tiangong?"
The two finally got to the point.
Tony came to Bant for two things. One was to find out the identity and location of the killer who killed his parents. The other was because of the Tiangong Conference.
When talking about the Tiangong Association, Bant put down the Lightning report in his hand, stood up, looked at Tony, and said, "I thought you would want to know more about the killer."
"I want to know."
"The Tiangong Association is an interstellar law enforcement agency. It was established not long ago, and its headquarters is not located on Earth. Its members are composed of cosmic people from different planets, of course, Earth is one of them."
Bant briefly explained the composition of the Tiangong Association.
"And I am the security officer appointed by Tiangong on Earth."
But Tony didn't buy it: "Interesting, why should those aliens care about the affairs of Earthlings?"
He still has not forgotten that Flash Star killed an Earthling in front of his eyes, even though he later investigated the information of the killed Earthling and confirmed that the other party deserved to die.
But it's not the aliens' turn to intervene.
"The Tiangong will set up branches within the areas under its jurisdiction. The members of the branches are appointed by the security officers of the planet. Therefore, in most cases, aliens will not interfere in the affairs of the Earth without authorization, unless the branch actively requests help."
Bant explained.
He skirted around the subject of Flash Star because it was hard for him to explain the totem thing to Tony.
"So, you want me to join the Tiangong?" Tony asked, "Let me be frank, you can't afford it... Wait, you can actually afford it..."
He coughed lightly to ease the embarrassment.
"You've been to ., so you should know about Nick Fury's Avengers plan, right? Why would I want to join your organization instead of the Avengers?"
"Because I can tell you who killed your parents and Nick Fury can't, it's as simple as that," Bant said.
Tony was surprised: "I thought you would say, 'I will tell you whether you join or not' and then wait for me to be touched and join on my own initiative."
"I don't want to play those empty games. The reason I came to you is just because you want to avenge your parents, and I also want to help my cousin find the guy who killed his parents.
"We have a common enemy."
"Who?"
"Hydra!"
Then, Bant slowly recounted to Tony what had happened.
Unlike Captain America who is under constant surveillance, Primus is safe and Tony's position is different from Captain America's, so Bant speaks more and more clearly.
It was the Winter Soldier who killed his parents, but in the end, it was Hydra.
"How did he come up with the idea of absorbing Hydra's scientific researchers?" Tony was so angry that he almost laughed.
In a sense, Howard can be said to have brought about his own destruction. He advocated keeping the Hydra people and wanted to use their wisdom for his own benefit, which did bring great progress to American technology.
But the problem is that this is also inviting a wolf into the house.
In the end, Howard Stark reaped the fruits of his own action and was assassinated by Hydra.
"Hydra is too powerful. I can't eliminate them by myself, so I asked you for help."
"What are you going to do?"
Tony asked.
Bant knew that Tony Stark was not the kind of person who could be fooled by a general plan outline, so he told him: The plan is to find all the Hydras and eliminate them all.
That's the same as saying nothing.
The key is how to find and eliminate them. "I have several Hydra bases in my hands." Bant did not keep the secret and then released the Hydra intelligence he had.
On a world map, the scattered Hydra strongholds were marked in red one by one.
"so much?"
Tony was very surprised.
Because Bant found dozens of bases, if all of these bases were destroyed, it would indeed deal a huge blow to Hydra.
Some of these strongholds were what Bant learned about from watching movies in his previous life, such as the stronghold in Sokovia, but most of them were clues that Eunice found by searching the entire Internet.
Clearing all of these would at least be equivalent to cutting off several of Hydra's heads.
But how could Bant be satisfied with this?
"This is just a small snake nest. The biggest snake nest is SHIELD itself. But we can't face SHIELD and destroy SHIELD directly." Bant glanced at Tony and smiled, "Otherwise we would be traitors."
“Who should do it then?”
"I found a flag, a flag that would symbolize the United States," Bant said.
Tony raised an eyebrow, motioning for him to continue.
"Captain America, Steve Rogers."
He did not hide it from Tony, but told him about the existence of Steve Rogers. Although he was surprised, Tony quickly accepted this setting.
"It is indeed very appropriate to let him deal with those hidden Hydras." Tony nodded.
If it was Bant or Tony who went to tell the world that SHIELD had long been corrupted by Hydra, no one would believe it.
Instead, it will put both parties in a passive position, which will then evolve into a crisis of trust, and finally Hydra will blame them, so it is not surprising that they are the Hydra.
But the opposite is not true.
As the first superhero in human history, during World War II, the United States’ propaganda about Steve was overwhelming!
And after he "sacrificed", this propaganda not only did not weaken, but was greatly strengthened!
A dead hero is more useful than a living one.
Over the years, Captain America has been portrayed as a symbol of the United States and has become a spiritual totem representing the United States.
Whether it is the older or younger generation in the United States, some of them are admirers of Captain America.
Saying Captain America is Hydra is like saying Lenin betrayed socialism.
Isn't that ridiculous?
Even if you dare to say it, no one will believe it.
In the comics, when the real captain of Hydra ruled the world, the people and all the superheroes were unwilling to believe that Captain America was Hydra until their death.
They would rather tell themselves that Captain America is being controlled, or that guy is not Captain America at all.
This is the value of the title Captain America.
"Then the plan is very clear. We will be the righteous force in public and attack these Hydra bases, while that old popsicle will secretly dismantle SHIELD and eliminate this biggest cancer."
Tony said, That’s great, I’m starting to understand.
But Bant shook his head.
"wrong!"
"These are just bait."
He waved his hand, the map disappeared, and a plan appeared in its place.
——"Project Insight".
"what is this?"
Tony asked, frowning.
After learning about the Paperclip Project, he became wary of all kinds of plans.
Bant did not explain to him immediately, but said: "As you said, after all these strongholds are cleared, it will definitely deal a major blow to Hydra. After 70 years of lurking, their ambitions have grown stronger, and they will not allow us to continue to find more snake nests and destroy them."
“By that time, they will have launched Project Insight.”
"That's why I asked, what is Project Insight?" Tony looked at Bant with dissatisfaction.
Bant smiled slightly, waved his arm in the air, and a detailed plan suddenly appeared in front of Tony.
The first thing that appears in the stereoscopic projection is the towering Stark Building.
"Through some kind of algorithm analysis, based on the past behavior trajectories of all people in the world, we can calculate which people will pose a threat to Hydra, and use three flying aircraft carriers to annihilate them all in an instant. This is the Insight Plan."
"Obviously, the famous Tony Stark is on the list. Of course, so am I."
Bant shrugged.
But Tony Stark felt his scalp tingling when he saw it.
After all, he is just an ordinary person in essence, and it is impossible for him to wear armor 24 hours a day. Once this so-called insight plan is activated, he might really be killed.
"madman!"
He slammed the table hard and cursed his father Howard in his heart for his stupid decision.
This old Deng not only let the wolf into his house, causing himself and his wife to be assassinated, but now even his son is under invisible threat.
"With the public strongly opposing Operation Concealment, he was so smart as to bring up the Paperclip Plan in a different way..."
At this moment, Tony no longer even thought about competing with Howard in intelligence.
My father is so smart, but he made a stupid mistake in such a thing.
"We must stop Project Insight from launching!"
Tony said angrily.
But Bant leaned back easily, sank into the sofa, spread his hands, and asked: "Why do you want to stop it?"
"What? Do you even need to ask that? If Project Insight is implemented, who knows how many people will be killed, and the world will completely fall under the high-pressure rule of Hydra!"
Tony said as a matter of course.
He was very confused. Since Bant had put this plan in front of him, didn't he know what the consequences of the Insight Plan would be?
But Bant said: "We can't stop him. Not only should we not stop him, on the contrary, we should push him."
He stretched out his hand and pushed it forward into the air: "I have agreed to help Nick Fury transform the power system of the aircraft carrier."
"You're crazy, you're also a Hydra if you don't fucking reply, right?!" Tony jumped up from his chair, pointed at Bant's nose, and cursed, "Do you know what you're doing, you...wait, you want to?"
"It took you so long to react?"
Bant rolled his eyes: "I almost doubt your IQ."
"Let me upgrade the aircraft carrier. Do you think the aircraft carrier will be named Snake or Ben in the end? Hydra thought these three aircraft carriers would become their powerful weapons to rule the world, but in fact, the muzzles of the aircraft carriers were pointed at them from the beginning to the end."
Bant's expression turned cold, he pursed his lips and stood up from the sofa. At this moment, he seemed to be standing on a high command platform, announcing the enemy's fate of defeat!
"Their insight plan allows us to find every Hydra head, chop off one head, and grow two more? Humph, I don't like chopping heads, I like to grind my enemies to ashes!"
Looking at Bant at this moment, even Tony couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
His lips turned pale, and he thought that the so-called anti-dinosaur and anti-flame armor in his backup plan could be put aside for a while.
The most urgent task is to get the entire anti-Bant armor out first...
