Madam Viper was the one who dodged the fastest. After seeing Baron Stark and Whitehall easily fall into the hands of the woman in robes, she did not even hesitate and directly used the power of black magic again.
Wouldn't that mean that afterwards those wizards would come to my house and blackmail me?
It was better than getting into a fight with this robed woman of unknown strength. She didn't think the remaining Pierce and the others would offer her shelter or help. She knew all too well how low these people would go.
Seeing Madam Viper vanishing so quickly under the ripples of dark magic, and Whitehall glaring at him with ill intent, Pierce's defenses nearly broke. Although he was already far from the front lines of the battle, he knew that this situation, where everyone scatters when the tree falls, was extremely disadvantageous to him.
He instantly stimulated the energy output of the mind ring to the maximum. Wrapped in the energy vest, he rushed towards the gate like a cannonball the moment Madam Viper disappeared.
Pierce was fast, but there was someone even faster. After Baron Strucker disappeared, Pietro rushed to his sister Wanda, hugged her in his arms, and escaped the secret room at an extremely fast speed before Pierce.
"Lord God's Messenger!" Malik looked at the empty secret room and looked at the woman in robes anxiously.
"It doesn't matter. God's return cannot be stopped! The person I sent is a very good carrier!" The woman in robes did not try to stop Pierce and the others from escaping. Although she could use several abilities, she only took advantage of the surprise attack.
"Don't worry about them for now, prepare to welcome the arrival of God! The Lord will deal with all enemies." The woman in robes said to Malik while looking at Whitehall who was under control.
…
An authorized person suddenly appeared on a distant star measured in light years, which stimulated a certain information collection and push mechanism in the data dimension and presented it to Luke.
Luke scanned the information curiously and found that he was actually a person with authority in the first tier.
Baron Stark
Luke clicked on the information card, revealing the data of the person being pushed. By uploading a large amount of data and technology, the person had gained access to Data Dimension, a relatively high level of authority, making him a key target of Data Dimension's attention. His coordinates had completely vanished from the atrium, appearing on another distant planet with blurry information.
"Screen and reproduce."
Of course Luke knew that this person was the leader of a certain Hydra group, so he was a little curious about why the other party had the misfortune to be teleported away from this planet.
Currently, the Hydra forces hidden within S.H.I.E.L.D. are diligently and conscientiously dedicating their efforts. It seems they have no secret plans to eliminate anyone and then step forward to control the world. It seems the world is changing so rapidly that they've been caught off guard, and S.H.I.E.L.D. is currently at a critical juncture, making them even more cautious.
Luke even felt that at this stage where SHIELD's power could break through the country's restrictions and successfully go further, they were more nervous and concerned than the current SHIELD Director Nick Fury. Not only did they genuinely meet the various orders and requirements issued by Nick, but each Hydra member also rarely played any double-dealing in secret. They tried their best not to make any small moves and earnestly maintained the stability of the world in accordance with Nick's requirements.
A small space emerged within the data dimension, replaying the scene before Stark's disappearance before Luke's eyes. He spotted several familiar faces, such as Madame Viper, who had been decimated by Snooker's security team in recent years, and Alexander Pierce, whom he had met once or twice before.
The picture truly recreates the scene one or two minutes before Stark disappears. From sitting and communicating to the tense situation, a series of eye-catching changes occurred in a short period of time.
Especially the appearance of Wanda and Pietro, as well as the various abilities displayed by the woman in robes, made Luke's eyes light up slightly.
Of course, the scene began with Baron Strucker and ended with his disappearance. But this didn't stop Luke from switching his perspective to Whitehall. After all, the unfortunate Baron wasn't the only one connected to the data dimension. The controlled Whitehall could also provide Luke with a continuation of the subsequent scenes.
As for how this is done?
Don't ask!
The purpose of asking is to collect big data in order to better improve services and gain more accurate insights into customer needs.
Technology providers like Stark, which connect to the data dimension, can also exercise this privilege, but they can only use it on those who have used their technology and are still using it. Of course, they can choose not to exercise this privilege. Even those who use their technology can refuse. This is a process of ethical testing and mutual negotiation.
Clearly, Luke's moral compass wasn't high in this regard. While he wouldn't readily look at the vast and complex data, he also wouldn't easily give up on gathering this kind of information. This, in the early stages of accumulation, was a key factor in maximizing the power of data.
After watching the re-enactment, Luke had already extracted the relevant key points from the reconstructed images and information, and understood the cause of the conflict. It was simply that the head of an ancient snakehead clan felt the time had come to welcome back the deity worshipped by his clan and to demand absolute loyalty from several other snakehead clans that had received their financial support and connections.
The results of the test were disappointing. Madame Viper, whose power was severely weakened, showed no interest in or respect for the Malik family's interstellar plan or the god. The ambitious Strucker and Whitehall, however, showed even more clearly their independence. As for Pierce? With S.H.I.E.L.D.'s current prosperity, he was even more unwilling to be inferior to others.
Unfortunately, although these people belong to the same organization, they all have their own factions and plans. Even when facing the mysterious woman in robes, they only look after themselves and do not have much tacit understanding.
If we use a list to summarize the information, it is information one: Malik and other predecessor families of Hydra want to welcome back their own god, want other snake heads to obey orders, and help that god control the world, but they are rejected by the Baron and others.
Intel 2: The robed woman has activated multiple rare superpowers. Intelligence suggests she's an Inhuman who has awakened and mastered these abilities. However, unlike other Inhumans who only awaken a single ability, she can utilize multiple abilities simultaneously. The number of Inhuman superpowers she currently possesses is unknown.
Intelligence 3: That god will soon arrive on this planet from a distant star through some means. This god possesses the ability to parasitize others, and perhaps possesses the technology to grant aliens multiple abilities.
Intelligence 4: That god is said to be the original Inhuman, who has awakened multiple abilities within himself. He can be said to be a living fossil of the Inhuman race!
Luke had some interest in this.
If we were to talk about the organization in the Nine Realms that knows the most about aliens, would it be the Alien Shelter Afterlife in Midgard?
no.
Is it Attilan on the moon?
It used to be.
After all, as the oldest and most complete Inhuman kingdom, they have continued their research on Inhuman genes and the Terrigen Mists for thousands of years, and they can be said to know the most about Inhumans.
But after the clever Maximus packaged the entire technology of Attilan and uploaded it to the data dimension in exchange for corresponding resources to improve himself and his subordinates, the person who knew the Inhumans best had to be the lord of the data dimension - Luke Field.
It's not just Attilan. Whitehall, who has a deep understanding of the Inhumans in the Atrium, has also uploaded some of his technology into the data dimension.
Bloody, direct, regardless of cost, not caring about the pain and death of other people, any experiment that can be thought of can be conducted on human beings just for verification.
Whitehall's research methods are brutal and cold, adhering to the experimental style and behavior of Hydra during its heyday. The suffering of the Inhumans in Midgard is at least half the responsibility of the hidden Hydra organization, and within Hydra, Whitehall, obsessed with the Inhumans' abilities, bears the other half of the responsibility for the persecution.
But there is no doubt that this cruel, inhumane and brutal experiment has yielded a wealth of valuable experimental data, some of which even Attilan lacks.
At this moment, Luke has the most complete Inhuman gene library in his hands - the data wealth accumulated by Attilan for thousands of years, and all kinds of research data on Inhumans in Midgard. It is not an exaggeration to say that he knows the most about Inhuman genes.
With the power Luke currently possesses, he is not afraid of a so-called Inhuman living fossil, even though he may have many rare and powerful superpowers, and the ability to control others and grant Inhumans the means to awaken other superpowers.
In terms of direct combat power, Luke even doubted his opponent could stand up to the current Captain. After all, the current Captain commanded the respect of at least half the nation, ensuring his Spirit Ring was constantly replenished, its energy cap constantly rising. Not to mention the boost to the Captain's own individual strength, the sheer number of people covered by his leadership aura was unmatched by the former Captain.
In the past, it might only have covered an elite squad.
But now the captain can cover an army of several thousand people!
He alone could raise a powerful Ring army! And it was enough to sustain this army in high-intensity combat for at least three hours!
That Inhuman ancestor, facing the captain and his army, might not even be able to withstand a single blow in a head-on confrontation. Unless the other party possessed that troublesome immortality, a tug-of-war would be in order.
However, it doesn't matter if they really have this ability. According to Attilan's historical records, the Inhumans themselves are a flawed race. Especially when they are awakened by the Terrigen Mists, there is a high probability that this defect will directly cause drastic changes in the body and become a deformity.
The ancestor of the aliens may have more advanced technical means to enable the aliens to evolve more safely.
If Luke has sufficient data, he can spend time using the virtual experimental platform in the data dimension to achieve this effect, or even go a step further and develop technology specifically to restrain the abilities of the Inhumans.
Compared to head-on combat, Luke prefers to use technology to solve problems and troubles.
He did what he thought. He didn't know when the other party would arrive in the atrium, but he thought it wouldn't be long. Luke opened the Inhuman database stored in the data dimension. While absorbing the data and information, he also began to think about what kind of technical means should be used to demonstrate this countermeasure against the Inhumans.
An Inhuman version of the Sentinel program?
Luke thought carefully. The technology wasn't a problem, and neither were the materials, supported by the data dimension. But did this seem like overkill? Regardless, the Inhumans, aside from Black Bolt on Attilan and the original Inhumans, whose abilities were currently unclear, weren't as powerful as the mutants' superpowers.
Besides, SHIELD's new currency funds are already stretched thin, and Nick might not be willing to accept a loan. After all, the Inhumans are not an insurmountable enemy for SHIELD at this point, so if Nick is asked to bear the expenses and costs of the Sentinel Project under these circumstances, he probably won't want to be the one being ripped off.
So, what about Project Kryptonite?
Luke considered the idea of successfully creating a kryptonite similar to the one used on Superman to fight the Inhumans. He concluded it was a viable plan. It would be inexpensive, effective quickly, and sustainable.
With sufficient data to support the technology, it wasn't difficult for Luke to implement it. With a goal and a clue, it just took a while to research and experiment.
Are there samples available, such as the Terrigen Mists?
Since the Terrigen Mists are a necessary factor for the Inhumans to awaken, then the Inhuman Kryptonite can be the inducement for the Inhumans' Inhuman genes to become silent and dormant!
One that awakens the Inhumans into superhumans.
Another one that makes the Inhumans become helpless mortals again.
In the case of genetic defects, no matter how powerful an Inhuman's abilities are, they will strictly speaking lose the ability to resist when faced with Inhuman Kryptonite. Even Black Bolt, known for his incredibly powerful single-target attack, no longer has to worry about losing control of his abilities when exposed to Inhuman Kryptonite, and can now communicate and speak normally like a normal person!
And those awakened aliens who failed to awaken, or became deformed and very different from ordinary people, perhaps they can temporarily recover to become normal people for a period of time?
It's not that Luke can't include this feature.
Luke enthusiastically perfected his plan while preparing for the experiment using data dimensions.
