"He is only following orders, and the crime is not worthy of death!"
Bei Minglei said proudly: "Anyone who dares to attack me, I will pay back ten times!"
Snapped
Bei Minglei slapped the bald man on the shoulder, and the bald man opened his eyes wide in an instant.
"For the sake of your cooperation, I will give you a good time!"
In the next second, the bald man closed his eyes forever, and his body slowly drifted away in the wind without leaving even a trace.
Tony shook his head and sighed bitterly, but he couldn't stop Bei Minglei's killing. Ever since he knew him, Tony knew that Bei Minglei's character was to repay grievances and revenge.
Suddenly, Tony became worried about MRD. As Bei Minglei said, provoking him was the biggest mistake MRD made.
-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------
Washington, D.C., National Defense Building.
In a small conference room, a meeting that has a great influence on the United States is being held. There are not many people attending the meeting, but everyone is a heavyweight in the United States.
President Kerum of the United States sat at the head of the conference table, followed by Secretary of Defense Chris, Secretary of State Larry, and MRD Director Thomas, and Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. Nick Fury, who Bei Minglei was familiar with, was also on the list.
Sitting next to Nick Fury was an old man whose golden hair was starting to turn gray. Although he was old, no one in the room dared to underestimate him.
Alexander Pierce, former director of S.H.I.E.L.D.
The meeting had been going on for an hour, and it was only about one person -- Arthur Stacy.
"Arthur Stacy is the biggest threat to the United States. This time he comes back from the dead, and he will definitely bring a devastating disaster to the United States!" Thomas, the director of MRD, has always been prejudiced against superhuman beings. It made him feel like a cat that has seen a fish, eager to try it.
The Secretary of Defense also agrees with Thomas' words, but as a politician, he will not express his position until he has figured out the president's intentions.
And Nick Fury has always expressed his attitude.
"The threat to human beings is not inside, but outer space. The Kryptonian invasion and Thor's arrival on the earth all indicate that the external threat is imminent!"
Fury said excitedly: "Yesterday, Loki from Asgard suddenly descended on the earth and stole the S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Cosmic Rubik's Cube. Now his whereabouts are unknown. We should gather all our strength to deal with him now!"
Thomas sneered and said, "Evil God Loki! Director Fury, are you kidding me?"
"How can there be a god in this world!"
Fury was not angry because of Thomas' ridicule, but took out a document and handed it to everyone in the conference room.
"Asgard is an alien civilization that came to Earth thousands of years ago. Because of its great power, it was regarded as a god by the ignorant humans at that time!"
"Loki is the son of Odin, the ruler of Asgard. He came to New Mexico half a year ago and was repelled by Arthur Stacy. Later, he sent an armor called the Destroyer to attack the earth, which is Arthur-Stacy. Stacy sacrificed herself to die with the Destroyer!"
"It follows that Arthur Stacy is not a threat to humanity!"
Fury's eloquent words cannot be ignored. The president and the Secretary of Defense looked through the information he provided, and frowned when they saw Arthur Stacy's stump.
The reason the President frowned was because he felt Arthur's sacrifice, while the Secretary of Defense was out of sheer disgust.
MRD director Thomas also saw the information, but he still did not change his attitude.
"Arthur Stacy has indeed helped the United States resist aliens. I don't deny it, but he has also destroyed [-] secret bases outside our country and brought incalculable losses to our country!"
Thomas' words brought back bad memories of the President. At that time, Arthur destroyed the American base abroad in order to retaliate against the United States. The President had no choice but to compromise. This was an indelible stain in his life.
Everyone present could see the change in the president's face, and Thomas added fire.
"MRD has destroyed Stacey's Night Owl Office, and we have already had irreconcilable conflicts. The only thing we can do now is to hit Arthur Stacey before he can react!"
Fury said excitedly to the president: "Arthur Stacy is not a threat. If we rashly attack him, it will only make us completely break with him. With his power comparable to a fourth-level mutant, once he retaliates against the United States , we must not be able to bear it!"
"It's too late!" Thomas said to Fury with a smile: "I have sent someone to deal with Stacey, and there should be results by now!"
Fury stood up abruptly, pulled up Thomas' clothes, and said viciously, "What did you do?!"
Thomas was caught, but he didn't panic at all. Instead, he said to Fury easily: "I sent someone with a mutant suppressor to capture Arthur Stacy."
"Asshole!" Fury tried to punch Thomas in the face, but was held back by Alexander Pierce.
"Furry, pay attention to what occasion this is!" Pierce urged.
Fury glanced at the President and the Secretary of Defense, finally lowered his fist, and angrily pushed Thomas onto the chair.
"According to S.H.I.E.L.D.'s data, Arthur Stacy's power doesn't come from the mutant gene. Your mutant suppressor can't restrain him at all!"
The smile on Thomas' face finally changed, and he immediately took out his mobile phone to contact his subordinates.
A few seconds later, Thomas put down the phone with a dark face, and everyone present guessed that his action against Bei Minglei had failed.
"Arthur Stacy killed 58 of my men, and you said he wasn't a threat!" Thomas angered Fury.
"If you S.H.I.E.L.D. had released all of Arthur Stacy's information to the U.S. government, I wouldn't have lost so many men!"
"Huh!" Fury said disdainfully: "I, S.H.I.E.L.D., is not an agency of the U.S. government. I, Nick Fury, are only responsible to the World Security Council, not the U.S. government!"
The atmosphere in the conference room became tense for a moment.
"Okay, you all don't say a word!" The President of the United States finally calmed down and reconciled the atmosphere.
"This is the end of the matter, we should now consider how to appease Arthur Stacy!"
Thomas excitedly said to the president: "A villain like Arthur Stacy, we should concentrate all our efforts to subdue him!"
Fury replied disdainfully: "What do you use to subdue Stacy, don't forget, your MRD has been relying on nothing but mutant suppressors!"
Thomas smiled confidently: "Your Excellency, I am confident that Arthur Stacy will be arrested and brought to justice!"
Hearing Thomas' words, the President did not give an answer immediately. He was also worried that Thomas thought highly of himself, and if he offended Arthur Stacy to death, it would be even more troublesome.
Alexander Pierce said at this time: "After all, Arthur Stacey still has the possibility of winning, why don't we try to recruit S.H.I.E.L.D.!"
"It's better not to fight against each other unless it's absolutely necessary!" Pierce's eyes flashed such a strange look, his words were not a problem at all, but the word "SHIELD" was highlighted in his words.
Combined with what Fury said before, "SHIELD" is not an organization of the US government, but it made the president make up his mind that SHIELD cannot be made stronger no matter what.
"The United States is not a cowardly country. It cannot be compromised because of the strength of one person. I have decided to deal with Arthur Stacey with all my strength. No matter how much the price is paid, he must be arrested and brought to justice!"
"Director Thomas, you are fully responsible for this matter, and the resources of the US government will fully cooperate with you!"
Once the president's words were out of his mouth, he couldn't change them. Fury sat on a chair decadently, worrying about the US government.
Pierce and Thomas looked at each other with a smile, but quickly restrained themselves, without arousing anyone's suspicion.
