Chapter 132 Night Interview with Malik
Looking at Rhaegar and Natasha in front of him, Malik was very angry, but this time he did not panic. .shung
After Rhaegar's demonstrative visit last time, the sense of urgency in his heart increased sharply, and he immediately accelerated his plan, hoping to bring the alien leader back before Rhaegar.
Rhaegar was different from his previous opponents. This person had a deep understanding of Hydra. He seemed to know all the secrets, and he struck cleanly and without mercy. And the reason why he is still alive now is just because Rhaegar is willing to let him live.
Malik alone can't deal with Rhaegar, but Rhaegar can't fight the whole world. If time is enough, he would rather rely on his own influence to slowly create public opinion, and force Rhaegar into a desperate situation with little designs. It would be in line with his wish if people with abilities fought each other.
It's a pity that Rhaegar didn't leave him such a long time. Since he knew the stone, it was only a matter of time before he found it. After all, he still had SHIELD to help him, and the boulder was originally in the hands of SHIELD. Although after the disbandment, some items have been confiscated and some items are scattered outside, there are still clues.
Besides, he had nowhere to hide. He could hide before, but now his identity has been exposed. For people like him, there is no hiding place in the world. As long as he escapes, it means he is guilty, and those huge funds and connections cannot be used, and the government will want him globally.
In addition, the Avengers and SHIELD will be looking for him, and when everyone is looking for him, he will definitely be found.
After being found, he might end up in jail at best, or die on the spot at worst.
Malik didn't want to die, at least he didn't want to die in such a useless way.
Therefore, in this battle, his only hope of winning is to be the first to bring the alien to Earth.
As for what Rhaegar said, he didn't care at all and didn't believe it.
The black boulder is sacred to Hydra, there is no doubt about it. The problem is that this stone is too big, it is inconvenient to move or hide, and it is too eye-catching.
In addition, after so many years of development, Hydra's leaders have also changed from generation to generation. During this period, there was only a very small period of time when one person was in power, and most of the time, several people were in power together.
There is no problem when you are alone, but when several people hold power at the same time, who will keep the stone becomes a problem.
Later, everyone came up with a way. Since the whole boulder is a passage, can we take a small part from this boulder, as long as it can form a passage, but it is a little narrower.
If you have an idea, you will naturally put it into practice. Hydra spent a lot of effort and cut out five small black cubes from the stone, each of which was ten centimeters long, wide, and about thirty centimeters high.
Then, during that routine sacrificial ceremony, they experimented with these five stones and found that they could indeed succeed.
From then on, these five stones were given to the five chiefs at that time for safekeeping as a symbol of power. Instead, the original boulder became less important as time went by, and was eventually scattered outside. Anyway, there was no need to worry if someone got the thing. As long as the boulder fluctuated, any living thing near it would be swallowed up.
Therefore, when SHIELD got the stone, Hydra was not in a hurry to get it back, but instead watched with interest how SHIELD reacted to it. But because Pierce's plan failed, Hydra and S.H.I.E.L.D. were apparently destroyed, and they were unable to pay attention to the situation of this giant stone.
By this generation, all five stones were in the custody of Malik. The stone was hidden in a secret warehouse in Germany, and only real high-level officials like him and Strack knew about it. Malik was still observing the people behind him. Once he decided that someone was qualified to access the secret, he would give him a stone. Unfortunately, everyone he listed as potential development targets was killed by Rhaegar, and even Straker himself was arrested by the Avengers.
In desperation, Malik can only bear this secret alone.
In his opinion, Rhaegar's behavior was too stupid to not kill him even though he already knew his true identity. He would never do this, because it was equivalent to leaving a bomb.
Of course, it does not rule out that Rega was concerned about his identity and needed an excuse to kill him. Because judging from these situations, every time Rhaegar acted, there was a good reason, leaving a lot of people alive for Hydra to convict, instead of simply rushing in and killing everyone in sight.
No matter what the other party's reasons are, Malik will seize this opportunity. He vowed to make Rhaegar pay for his arrogance!
When he saw Rhaegar again, he thought for a moment that Rhaegar had changed his mind. However, it was too late now, he couldn't kill himself.
"You don't seem as nervous as last time." Regalega sat directly opposite Malik.
"You're right, I'm not nervous." Malik smiled playfully.
There was confusion on Rega's face, what's going on?
"Are you here again to ridicule me?"
"No, I came here this time to discuss something with you."
"what's up?"
"I want to know about that stone," Rhaegar looked at Malik, "I wonder if it's with you?"
Malik's eyes flashed and he said sarcastically, "Weren't you looking for it some time ago?"
"Yes, and I also found it, a black boulder with five holes on it."
Malik's fingers instantly dug into the sofa.
"Unfortunately, I lost it again."
For a moment, Malik thought Rhaegar was teasing him.
"What do you mean lost?" he asked.
"I just can't find it." Rhaegar spread his hands.
"Do you think I stole it?" Malik said contemptuously, "If I were here, shouldn't I use it to bring back the leader of Hydra?"
"Of course you will do this. Moreover, you have been busy during this period, probably just for this matter," Rhaegar said with a smile, "After all, this is your only chance."
"Really? I'm afraid I'll disappoint you, because the stone is not here with me." Malik said coldly.
"I know the stone is not here with you. It is floating in space now. I don't know where it will fall. Maybe it will go directly to the sun."
"what?!"
Malik's whole body immediately tensed up, but then he relaxed again, with a gloating expression on his face, "It seems your wish will not come true."
"No, on the contrary," Rhaegar stared at Malik, "My wish will come true soon."
"What do you mean?" Malik frowned.
"After the boulder disappeared, I felt that my wish could not be realized, but Natasha reminded me," Rhaegar pointed at Natasha beside him, "Hydra should still have a way to open the passage. , otherwise I would never have allowed that stone to stay in SHIELD for so long."
"And you just confirmed this."
"What did you say?" Malik's expression turned ugly.
"I told you that the boulder was thrown into space. You didn't feel despair. Instead, you looked at my joke with gloating. This shows that you don't care where the boulder is. It also shows that you do have other ways to open the channel."
Malik stared at Rhaegar, his body shaking slightly with anger.
"I know you want to open that channel, let the stranger return, and then eliminate me," Rega paused and continued, "I also want to open the channel, but just to eliminate him."
"You can't destroy him!"
"You have to try this to know, right?" Rhaegar said slowly, "You must be eager to see it."
Malik said nothing.
"Our goal is the same when it comes to opening the channel. You didn't tell me before because you were afraid that I would disturb you and wanted to gain some advantages while I was away. But the most critical problem is that you don't know how to Bring it back."
Malik's gaze became more horrifying because Rhaegar had spoken his mind.
He did not lack the conditions to open the passage, but he did not know how to bring the alien back. He has been thinking of ways, and recently he has been thinking hard and summoned many people, but they have not been able to solve this problem.
Moreover, Rhaegar was right. He also wanted to know whether the real leader of Hydra was as powerful as the legend said, and whether he was a god who could lead Hydra to dominate the world.
Now Rhaegar has forced Hydra to a dead end. If the alien leader can kill Rhaegar, it will not only clear up the difficulties for Hydra, but also prove his strength. After all, wasn't it because he was so anxious to bring the leader back to deal with Rhaegar? Now that Rhaegar himself has come to the door, there is no reason to refuse this opportunity.
But Rhaegar is very strong, and the leader has been there for so long, and no one knows what his condition is. What if he can't defeat Rhaegar? It was a risk Malik couldn't take.
At this time, Rhaegar said again, "I could have used other more violent ways to make you speak. Your bodyguards are nothing in my eyes, but if you can cooperate, I will avoid the trouble and you will be exempted." Painful, wouldn’t it be better if we could all realize our wishes?”
"I have to say, the reasons you gave are very convincing."
"But what?" Rhaegar frowned.
"But I refuse." Malik smiled slightly.
With a bang, the sofa under Rega instantly exploded into pieces.
"It seems you prefer the thorny road." Rhaegar's voice was cold.
"No, I prefer comfortable sofas, soft carpets, and warm stoves," Malik swung the wine glass in his hand again, took a sip, and made a satisfied sound, "and sweet Scotch whiskey."
"Then you can enjoy it in the next life. I will send you to see your God now."
Rhaegar grabbed Malik by the collar and lifted him up.
"No problem, but before that, I want to ask you a question."
"what?"
"I recently met a girl named Simmons. She has a British accent and is very cute. She has a PhD in biology and a PhD in something else. I forgot. Anyway, she is very knowledgeable." Malik looked at Lei with contempt. Added, "It's just that her mental state is not very good, after all, she has been on another planet for so long."
Rega's eyes suddenly widened, and his expression was extremely exciting.
"What you just said is right. I do have another way to open the passage. I had already given up at first. It was just a desperate move. But after opening the passage, what appeared in front of me was a cute girl." Malik's tone With a strange rhythm.
"Then, I was pleasantly surprised to find that she was actually from SHIELD and had passed from Earth. This really made me overjoyed. The problems that Hydra has not solved for thousands of years are now within my reach."
"Hand over Simmons and I will spare your life!"
Malik sneered, "Do you think I am such a stupid person? I'm afraid you will kill me as soon as I hand it over."
"But I can make your death less painful."
"Yes, I don't doubt your ability to torture people," Malik curled his lips, "But even if you torture me to death, I can't hand her over to you, because I don't know where she is."
What does it mean? Rhaegar was puzzled.
"I knew since the last time that you would come to me again soon, so after I got her, I asked my men to take her to a place, but I didn't let them tell me where it was, but I could Guaranteed, it’s safe.”
"Of course, if you kill me or hurt me, that's not necessarily the case."
"And you have to know that I am a very famous public figure. If I don't appear on TV for a period of time, my people won't be able to see me, which will be very troublesome."
Rhaegar stared at Malik fiercely, gritted his teeth, and finally put him down helplessly.
Malik adjusted his clothes and continued, "If you need some comfort, what I can tell you is that I did not coerce the girl. She went back voluntarily. I heard it was to save someone."
Looking at Rega, whose face was uncertain, Malik smiled and said, "Mr. Rega, don't think that because you are strong, you can do whatever you want."
"As a warning, let me remind you that Straker's heirs are not something you can control casually."
"This time, I won, and you lost."
After Malik finished speaking, he slowly walked towards his bedroom and heard another sentence from a distance.
"You can go, I think you know the way."
