Chapter 134, The Little Mouse of Sokovia
Under the dim street lights, Hom was walking casually along the streets of Sokovia. The cool evening breeze blew gently, messing up his hair and blowing some garbage on the roadside to the corner.
Walking on the streets of Sokovia, Holm also deeply felt the fragmentation and strangeness of this country.
Due to political reasons, this country has been in long-term turmoil and wars that break out from time to time.
But despite this, the country still has the most prosperous area, where top restaurants and hotels stand, with bright streets and casinos that are open day and night.
The place where Holm lived was the most prosperous area, and he had only walked two streets when the entire environment suddenly became decayed and desolate.
The last time I felt such a stark difference was in Brazil, where there was only a wall between the rich areas and the slums, but there was heaven on one side and hell on the other.
"Forget it, it's better not to go too far. We promised to buy something. If we go further, there won't even be a ghost."
While thinking to himself, Holm turned around and headed back in the direction he had just come.
In addition to the series of things that just happened in the room that made his mind a little confused, he was still thinking about when he should go on the Hydra mission.
With the information he received during dinner, he had been able to determine the location of the target, so now he only needed a suitable gap to allow him to leave Daisy temporarily and concentrate on performing this mission.
After much deliberation, the only suitable time is at night, after all, everyone is sleeping at this time.
But for this mission, it was still not safe to just go out and perform the mission while Daisy was sleeping. He had to make sure that Daisy would not get up at night and would not find him leaving the hotel.
After much deliberation, it seemed that we had to use some unusual means to give Daisy some medicine.
Holm thought for a long time and this was the only option that was safer. Only in this way could he ensure that he would have enough time to carry out operations at night and complete Hydra's mission.
After figuring out what to do, the next thing he had to consider was the dosage.
The medicine should neither be too much nor too little. If it is too much, Daisy may not be able to sleep, and there will be drug residues in the body that cannot be metabolized in time, leaving hidden dangers.
If it is too little, it will not guarantee enough time to complete the task. It will also be troublesome if Daisy wakes up and finds that he is not there.
"I'd say it's better to just knock her out, so there won't be any risk of drug residue." Venom also mentioned a new idea to Holm at this time.
After hearing Venom's idea, Holm also thought about it seriously. This idea sounded a bit unreliable at first, but if you think about it carefully, it is indeed feasible.
There is no risk of drug residue in the physical coma, but the only thing to control is the strength of the attack and the duration of the coma.
"Then can you control the intensity and the time she takes to fall asleep?" Holm asked Venom. If Venom can guarantee it, this idea is feasible.
After hearing this, Venom thought for a while and said, "I need to try it a few times. As long as I find the pattern, there will be no problem."
Hearing Venom's answer, Holm also frowned, and then shook his head after thinking for a moment: "If I try a few more times, there will be nothing I can do. I can't tell her that I want to play tricks with her. Then I knocked him unconscious several times."
"It is better to use drugs. After she wakes up, let her drink more drinks that are good for urination. This can speed up her metabolism and ensure that there are no drug residues in her body after returning to the base."
While Holm was gradually perfecting the entire process and plan, a teenage boy suddenly ran out of the alley next to him.
He seemed to be turning his head to look at something and didn't notice Holm's figure, so he bumped into Holm as soon as he came out of the alley.
"I'm sorry! Sir! I didn't mean to do it! I'm sorry!"
The boy stood up, hurriedly apologized to Holm, and then ran away after looking back at the alley.
After the boy left, a panting middle-aged man ran out of the alley within ten seconds. Looking at the boy who had disappeared, he cursed: "Damn little mouse! That's my money!" ."
Listening to the middle-aged man's angry curses, Holm, who was not far away, roughly understood what had just happened.
This middle-aged man seemed to run a bakery, and the little boy who bumped into him not only did not buy his bread, but stole a few pieces of bread and change from his shop while he was closing.
On the desolate street, there was only the figure of Holm walking further and further away, and the sound of the middle-aged man gradually stopping.
The situation in Sokovia as a whole is not good, especially for the people living on these desolate streets.
So Holm didn't think that the middle-aged man cursed too much, nor did he think that the little boy who stole money was really immoral, because both the middle-aged man and the little boy who stole money were just poor people working hard to make a living in this chaotic world. That's all.
After walking through two streets again, the surrounding scenery suddenly became more prosperous. Not only were the shops hung with bright lights, but even the people around became more alive.
Compared with the prosperity in front of us, the desolation we just passed by seemed more like a dream.
"There's a convenience store over there, go buy me chocolate! This time I want to try wine-filled chocolate."
"I wonder if the chocolate in Sokovia is any different from the chocolate we usually buy."
"One day I will eat chocolate from all over the world and make a chocolate ranking list"
Venom guided Holm in the direction of the convenience store and said with great anticipation.
As soon as Holm entered the convenience store, he first followed Venom's idea and put all the chocolates on the shelf into the basket, and then took some snacks according to his own preferences and guessed Daisy's preferences.
I don't know if he left in a hurry, so Daisy didn't hear what he said. There was no text message from the other party on his phone, so he had no choice but to buy some snacks and go back.
"Hello sir, these items total $73." The cashier politely packed all the items and handed them to Holm with both hands.
When Holm heard this, he nodded and took the things, and then he was about to take out his wallet to pay.
But when he put his hand in his pocket, he found that his wallet had disappeared.
He quickly recalled the entire journey after he walked out of the hotel, and then instantly focused on the little boy who bumped into him at that time.
"What a little mouse. I think I may have had a little pain in my back just now while standing and talking."
Chapter 135, Pietro and Wanda
Since the wallet was gone, there was no way to pay for the items. Holm could only put the watch in the convenience store, tell the cashier to store the items there first, and then take the wallet to check out later.
"Damn little mouse! My chocolate just slipped away from my eyes!"
Venom's reaction was even greater than Home's, because it had been thinking about the taste of Sokovia's chocolate for a long time, and it was about to eat it in its mouth, but something went wrong again.
"It's really embarrassing to think about it. A king agent and a symbiote with sentient abilities fell into the hands of a child." Holm said with some self-deprecation.
He and Venom were indeed a little careless. One was thinking about missions and plans, and the other was thinking about chocolate. In addition, the other was just a little boy, so they didn't raise much vigilance and indulged in sentimentality. The result was unexpected. Capsized directly in the gutter.
While speaking, he also touched his empty pockets, and then jumped onto the roof of the building next to him with a strong movement of his feet.
"Damn little thief, I must find him!" Venom said as he fully expanded his senses and tried his best to find the little boy just now.
And Holm was also jumping up and down on the roof, constantly screening and excluding nearby areas.
At the same time, around an abandoned clinic, the little boy who had just stolen Holm's wallet was sneaking in under the wall behind the clinic, and then climbed up to the second-floor window by stepping on the trash can.
After entering the window, he turned again and again among the scattered garbage, and finally climbed up to the attic on the top.
"Who? Ahem! Is it Pietro?"
Hearing the sound he made, a clear and somewhat weak female voice came from behind.
Piero heard this and immediately responded while walking: "It's me, Wanda! We have something to eat!"
As he spoke, he also walked up to the girl, and then took out the bread from his arms.
"Although these breads are a little cold, they are still soft. Eat more so that you can get better quickly."
Wanda slowly propped up her weak body and leaned against the box at the back, then tore a small piece of bread Piero took out.
"You eat more, I can't eat much, cough cough."
Upon hearing this, Pietro directly stuffed all the bread into Wanda's hands and said, "I already ate it when I was on the road, so these are yours."
"I told you that you need to eat more to get better quickly, so stop acting like a sister."
Seeing the persistence and stubbornness on Pietro's face, Wanda didn't say anything more, just coughing and biting the bread in small bites.
"These breads must be from Uncle Ero's. The taste is very familiar." Wanda looked at the bread in her hand and said.
After hearing Wanda's words, Pietro also leaned on the box next to him and said: "I know what you want to say, but this is not stealing. Who told him that he was always short of money when he sold bread to us before? He owes it."
Having said this, he suddenly thought of his extra gains, so he took out the bulging wallet in his arms, and then said with some excitement: "If you want to talk about stealing, this thing is considered stolen by me."
"This is a wallet? Did you steal his wallet too?" Wanda said with a slight frown.
"You can tell by the thickness of this wallet that it can't be that poor guy's." Pietro said while showing the thickness of the wallet.
"I took this from a guy who looked very expensively dressed. He looked so rich that he probably wouldn't care about this loss."
Hearing Pietro's words, Wanda frowned even more: "Pietro, this is wrong."
"Of course I know this is wrong, but what can I do?" Pietro interrupted Wanda before she could finish her words.
"Do you want me to watch you get weaker day by day? In the past, we only needed bread, but now we need money to treat you."
"This money may be just a meal to that guy, but it can save your life. I can't just watch you leave me.
"I can't give up on my family because of those ridiculous moral values, I can't."
Pietro's words made Wanda fall into silence. They had experienced so much suffering together over the years, and of course he understood the feelings Pietro said.
If Pietro was sick now, she would definitely make the same choice as now.
After a moment of silence, Wanda also held Pietro's hand and said softly: "Don't worry, I will get better."
"As for the money, just treat it as a loan. We will pay it back to him when we earn it, if we can see him again."
"Yes." Pietro nodded when he heard this, and squeezed Wanda's somewhat cold hand.
After a while, Pietro also calmed down and put the unpleasantness behind him, then opened his bulging wallet and wanted to count how much money was in it.
"A lot of money! This guy is really rich!" Pietro said, looking at the wad of dollars in his wallet with bright eyes.
"1, 2, 342, 4200 US dollars! With this money, your illness will definitely be cured!" Pietro counted the pile of money and said excitedly.
Wanda also looked at the pile of money and smiled at this time. Although the method of obtaining it was somewhat unethical, the money gave her hope of living.
After counting the money, Pietro continued to look at the contents of his wallet to see if there was anything else he could exchange for money.
But I didn't see any other useful things. Instead, I found a lot of documents one by one.
"Are these all work permits? They don't seem to be very valuable. FBICIAIRSDOJ What are these?"
Pietro looked at the documents one after another, and his mind was filled with questions. What does this person do? What is the use of these things? If he wanted to exchange these things for money, how much could he exchange?
Wanda also looked confused at this time. She didn't understand what the purpose of these things was, but she always felt that the FBI and CIA sounded a bit familiar.
"Boy, these are the guys I eat for, don't let me ruin them."
While Pietro and Wanda were looking at each other, a slightly low and somewhat joking voice suddenly came from the shadow not far away.
The sudden sound made Pietro and Wanda immediately alert. When they looked up in the direction of the sound, they saw a man in a suit and ties slowly walking towards them.
The bright moonlight shines in from the attic window, providing some light here and also illuminating the side of the man's face.
Chapter 136, live well
"Why are you still standing there? Put my ID back." Looking at Pietro who had clenched his fists and was full of vigilance, Holm also raised his head and said.
There was no anger or anger on his face, just a faint smile and a strong interest in his heart.
"Your wallet is right here, and the money is here too. You can take it back. It's all my doing and it has nothing to do with her." Pietro protected Wanda behind him and pointed to the wallet, ID, and other items on the ground. Said the wad of cash.
"Sir, ahem, please forgive us for being unreasonable. I'm sorry for the trouble I've caused you. Please forgive my brother. He's just trying to treat me. Ahem, he didn't mean to target you." Wanda He spoke a little weakly and explained.
Seeing them protecting each other, several key words suddenly flashed in Holm's mind.
Siblings or siblings depend on each other for life in Sokovia.
"What's your name?" Holm looked at Wanda and asked.
They were talking when he came just now, and he only heard the boy's name was Pietro, but he didn't know the girl's name.
If it was really what he guessed, then this girl's name should be...
"Wanda, Wanda Django Maximov." Wanda looked at Holm and replied: "He is my brother, Pietro Django Maximov."
Sure enough, after hearing Wanda's answer, Holm immediately understood that the pair of siblings in front of him were the famous Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver.
Judging from their current ages, it should be a few years before they gain superpowers.
Holm remembers that in the movie, it seemed that Quicksilver was the older brother and Scarlet Witch was the younger sister. They were twins who were born only a few dozen seconds apart.
However, the relationship between the couple in front of him does not affect anything in turn. Anyway, he has long been accustomed to the slight differences between this world and the plot in his impression.
"Where is your family?" Holm continued to ask.
Pietro frowned upon hearing this, feeling that Holm's question was a bit rude, and was about to reply stiffly.
But before he could say anything, Wanda held his hand and replied softly: "Our parents died in the war a few years ago, and now we are the only two relying on each other."
Wanda could tell that Holm didn't seem to want to do anything to them, so she also wanted to communicate normally, and it was best to let this matter pass smoothly.
While Wanda was talking, Holm also stepped forward and picked up all his wallet and documents.
"Impolite brat, I told you to put your ID back for me."
"Forget it. There's no need to worry too much with you."
Holm said as he put his wallet back in his pocket, and then squatted in front of Pietro and Wanda.
Looking at Holm's deep eyes, Pietro couldn't help but become nervous again, and turned sideways to block Wanda even more tightly.
"Don't block me, you brat." Holm said as he reached out and forced Pietro aside.
Pietro only felt that Holm's hands were like a pair of iron pliers, extremely strong and carrying a huge force that he could not resist at all.
Like a little chicken, he was instantly pushed aside and sat down on the ground.
"What are you going to do?" Pietro ignored the pain in his butt and nervously climbed up from the ground as he spoke, trying to stand in front of Holm again.
But just as he got up, a cold gun barrel was pressed against his forehead.
"Crack!"
With the crisp sound of bullets being loaded, Holm also turned his head and looked at the frightened Pietro, and said in a rough voice: "I'll say it again, don't stand in my way."
Looking at Holm's emotionless eyes, Pietro felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, his whole body was stiff, and his teeth were trembling and fighting.
He knew that he had to stand up and protect Wanda, but his hands and feet didn't listen to him, and he just couldn't move at all.
"No! I will do whatever you say! Please don't hurt him!" Wanda shouted in panic, and quickly stood in front of Pietro, begging Holm.
Holm didn't say anything when he saw this, he just moved the pistol slightly, used the barrel to lift Wanda's chin, and then observed her carefully.
Wanda's hands and feet were trembling uncontrollably at this time, but she pursed her lips tightly and did not dare to move at all.
Holm's eyes were like sharp knives, completely putting her aside and observing her carefully.
After a moment, the sharp eyes gradually began to dissipate. Holm also put the pistol back on his waist, then patted her head and said: "It's not a big problem. Go to the drugstore to buy some cough medicine and antibiotics. It should be fine in less than a week." It can be better."
With the voice of Holm speaking, the frozen atmosphere just now dissipated, and Wanda's tightened heart also relaxed a little.
From what I heard, did this man observe her to see how her condition was? But he didn't look like a doctor, and he had a gun, and he was so scary.
Looking at the two people who were still nervous, Holm also stood up and took a few steps back, and then said softly: "Don't be so nervous, I won't do anything to you, I just wanted to see what her condition was like. That's all."
"Of course, besides that, there are also some thoughts that you can remember for a long time."
"You must know the chaos in Sokovia better than I do. At times like this, you must be more careful and don't get yourself into dangerous things."
"Kid, not everyone is as good-tempered as me. If you keep your hands and feet so dirty, you may have to say goodbye to your sister once you encounter a hard problem."
"Although they don't have guns, they still have sticks and knives. These things may make you suffer more than guns."
Hearing Holm's reminder, Pietro also bit his lip and said in a low voice: "That's better than starving to death."
"Why would I do this if I could have enough to eat every day?"
After hearing his words, Holm also raised his head, looked at the pile of money on the ground that was not collected by him, and said, "With that money, you will be able to have enough to eat in the future."
"Although medicines are expensive at this time, it doesn't cost much to cure your disease. If you just buy food every day, the remaining money should be enough for you to live for a long time."
After hearing these words, Wanda and Pietro realized why Holm had just put away his ID and wallet.
"But the money is yours, ours." The instantly changing situation also made Wanda's mood fluctuate.
But before she finished speaking, Holm interrupted her and said: "From the beginning, this money has been yours."
"Take this money and live a good life. See you next time if you have a chance."
"But...!" Wanda wanted to say something else, but Holm had disappeared.
She clearly saw Holm walking into the shadows just now, but how could he disappear in the blink of an eye?
"He's gone." Pietro felt a little numb when he saw this strange scene.
The two of them looked at each other, even doubting whether Holm was a human or a ghost.
How could this be done if it were a human being? If it is a ghost, what is the explanation for the pile of money on the ground?
Chapter 137, the action begins
"Why did you leave all the money there, so how can we pay the bill later? I haven't bought my chocolate yet?" Venom asked Holm who was jumping on the roof.
Holm had just landed in the alley next to the bustling area.
While he walked out as if nothing had happened and blended in with the pedestrians on the street, he responded to Venom's question in his mind: "We have got our wallet back. What are you still worried about? Although the cash is gone, we still have bank cards."
"Don't you already have a thorough understanding of human society? Why would you ask such a question?"
"It's not because you always use cash, that's why I didn't think about bank cards." Sensing Holm's question, Venom also had some quibbles on his face.
Road.
"Okay, okay, don't worry, there will definitely be no shortage of chocolate." Holm said as he walked into the convenience store again, completed the checkout, and returned to the hotel with his things.
In the hotel room, Holm and Daisy were sitting on two chairs on the balcony respectively. On the table in the middle was a pile of snacks just bought from the convenience store.
Daisy's expression management was very good. Even though the plan she had been thinking about had failed, she was still not discouraged. She had already thought of a second plan, and she didn't behave strangely at all.
"This is wine-filled chocolate. Eat less and don't get drunk." When Daisy picked up another piece of chocolate and stuffed it into her mouth, Holm also reminded her quickly.
Looking at Daisy's nonchalant look now, Holm felt even more fortunate that he had done nothing just now. Fortunately, he didn't listen to Venom's advice, otherwise Taishe would be dead now.
In his eyes, Daisy's current reaction is the best proof that Venom's idea just now was completely self-indulgent, and he was very wise and not impulsive. This can ensure that their current relationship is still so harmonious and normal, and has not crossed the line. The embarrassment and confusion that followed.
"It's just a little bit of alcohol, it's nothing." Daisy said while sipping the chocolate in her mouth.
She was in a good mood now, because although she didn't send a message to Holm, Holm still didn't forget to bring her snacks.
The small details conveyed in such sparse and ordinary actions made her feel at ease, so relieved that she felt warm and even a little sleepy.
". Just saying it's nothing, you really don't know yourself at all." Looking at Daisy, who had already tilted her head on the chair and fell asleep not long after talking to him, Holm complained speechlessly.
Daisy's cheeks and the skin exposed under her nightgown were a little pink. It was obvious that she fell asleep after eating too much wine-filled chocolate.
It was obvious that her drinking capacity was not that good, but she still insisted that she was fine. As a result, she was sleeping so soundly that Holm had to carry her to the bed.
Thinking of this, Holm stood up helplessly, picked up Daisy who was lying on her side on the stool, and slowly walked to the bed.
Just as Holm put her gently on the bed and was about to stand up to clear the sofa for him, Daisy, who was already asleep, suddenly grabbed his arm and pulled him down forcefully.
!!!
Being pulled so suddenly, Holm couldn't stand up and fell down on the bed. Fortunately, he supported his body with his hands in time, otherwise he would have hit Daisy in the face.
This sudden movement made Holm suspect that Daisy was not asleep at all, but her close proximity and rosy cheeks did seem to be drunk.
"Don't even think about running away, hehe~ You can't escape from my grasp. Just stay here obediently. Huh~~~"
"You smell so good hehehe. I will be gentler to you."
Before Holm could move, he heard the drunk Daisy start talking in her sleep.
The warm breath with a hint of alcohol and chocolate blew onto Holm's face, making Holm couldn't help but look at Daisy's face carefully again.
It is obvious that her bones and facial features are very pretty and slightly cold, but who would have thought that the sleep talk coming out of her mouth would be so bold and shameful.
I don't know what kind of sweet dream Daisy was dreaming about. A good beauty could unconsciously have a bit of a gangster temperament.
During the day on the plane, he tried to quibble with Holm that he didn't have any strange dreams, but at night he was exposed.
Thinking of this, Holm couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, and looked at Daisy, who had her eyes closed and giggled from time to time, and smiled.
"Hehe. Don't be afraid, let me kiss mua~" Daisy pouted her lips as she spoke, her red lips exuding a bright color under the moonlight, as well as the fragrance of orange lipstick.
This burst of orange fragrance penetrated into Holm's nose through the close distance, and at the same time it penetrated into his heart and teased his heartstrings, making him have the urge to taste it.
On the winding mountain road on the outskirts of Sokovia, a long motorcade was traveling along the mountain.
On the cart in the middle of the motorcade, Chalabi was chewing a cigar, pressing the end of the cigar with his fingers while playing with a few large chips in his hand and laughed loudly: "Those European gentlemen are really soft. Damn it! I only took a pair and bluffed them all! Hahahaha!"
Hearing his hearty and proud laughter, the middle-aged man in the co-pilot turned his head and greeted with a flattering smile: "Sir, your card skills are great. You have never met an opponent. How can you say that those soft The eggs can handle it."
"You have taught them a lesson now, so that they have to lower their arrogant heads in front of you."
Listening to the flattery of his men, Chalabi also took a puff of his cigar, exhaled a lot of pure smoke, and then continued to laugh: "They are indeed arrogant, and they are indeed qualified to be arrogant. After all, we are here to get it from them. arms."
"These arms dealers all look like dogs, but in fact they are even greedier than the devil."
"When I bet with them, what I never care about is winning or losing, but my face!"
"Winning money is not a big deal to me. What is important is to see what it looks like when their domineering faces collapse."
"Hahaha, I stepped on their faces to the ground today. They won't dare to look down on me any more when they conduct transactions later."
After Chalabi finished speaking, the co-pilot's subordinates quickly continued to flatter him. With this response, the atmosphere in the car became extremely happy.
Not far away, on the mountainside, Holm was climbing the steep cliff with one hand, watching the convoy getting closer and closer to him.
Daisy's voice sounded from time to time in the earphones, reporting other situations to him.
Chapter 138, explode! fry! fry!
"This road connects the city to the secret casino on the mountainside. Chalabi should have just come out of the casino and is returning to the city."
"Currently there are no cars for ten kilometers before and after the convoy. It is conservatively estimated that you have 3 to 5 minutes to proceed. If there are any unexpected situations along the way, I will tell you in advance."
"Understood." Listening to the clues and estimated time provided by Daisy, Holm nodded, then raised his wrist and looked at his watch.
Since it is estimated that it will take about 3 to 5 minutes, he will act within the three-minute limit to avoid other accidents.
In the car in the middle, Chalabi was grinning and laughing with a cigar in his mouth, but suddenly, some bad premonitions welled up in his heart.
This instinct had saved him many times before, so he wasn't going to ignore it this time.
"Stop the car!" Before Chalabi could finish his words, the driver had already stepped on the brakes, causing him to hit the back of the seat in front of him.
Immediately afterwards, there were several huge roars from behind, and the flames of the explosion shot into the sky. The huge impact pushed the car that Chalabi was in forward, causing it to hit the car in front. .
At this point, of course Chalabi understood what had happened.
I saw him taking out a submachine gun from the side and holding it in his hand, while shouting to the other people in the car: "You are all copied by me! What the hell is this blind little thief! How dare you mess with me!" !!"
While he was talking, bursts of rumblings came, and with the rumblings, the cars in front were also lifted off the road one after another, rolling down the mountainside and down to the bottom of the mountain, and then exploded and caught fire in the middle. into fireballs.
"Bang!" The car blocking Chalabi's car was also overturned. After all the obstacles in front were removed, Chalabi and his men saw clearly that the cause of the current situation was just a man wearing a uniform. A man in black combat uniform and windshield.
Chalabi looked at Holm standing in front of the car. Although he didn't know how the other party did all this, this did not prevent him from taking aim with his gun.
When he picked up the gun, Holm, who was standing in front of the car, slowly raised his hand.
Seeing that Holm had nothing in his hand and just raised his hand, Chalabi was also a little confused. He frowned and thought about what new trick this was. Was he going to surrender? But isn't it a bit late now?
Before Sarabi could think about it, the answer quickly appeared.
I saw black venom surging on Holm's raised palm. The venom instantly stabbed out like thorns, piercing the windshield, and continued to split into countless small branches and spikes in the process.
The entire space was filled with black thorns. The main driver and co-pilot's men were cut into pieces by the venomous thorns. Only Sarabi in the back seat gritted his teeth and let out a roar with red eyes.
"Roar!"
Along with Sarabi's shouts and roars, a crimson fire suddenly appeared, blasting the entire car apart. At the same time, the thorn-like venom instantly retracted and returned to Holm's body, which had been pushed out by the impact. inside.
"It's interesting. This should satisfy those guys." Holm, who retreated a distance, thought as he looked at the fire that gradually began to dissipate.
The flames and explosions did make Venom feel a little uncomfortable, but they were far from the level of instant retraction just now. The reason for such a performance was due to Holm's orders and Venom's performance.
Showing such an obvious weakness, both Holm himself, Hydra and SHIELD can feel relieved.
"Who sent you here? Tell me and I will make your death less painful." In the dispersing firelight and smoke, Chalabi was staring at Holm, still holding a ball in his right hand. Orange-red energy ball.
After hearing Sarabi's words, Holm didn't bother to answer. He just transformed his hands into sharp blades.
When Chalabi saw Holm's change, he also raised the corners of his mouth and smiled. Then he took out a cigar from his blood-stained pocket, raised the energy ball in his right hand to light it, and blew out the smoke and said: " It turns out he has the same superpower as me, no wonder he is so confident."
"It seems that the person who sent you here is no longer a small character. Which country's secret service is it? The United Kingdom? Or Russia?"
"Forget it, no matter where you are, it doesn't stop me from beating you to death. I also kill people with super powers like you."
Chalabi was talking when he suddenly shot the fireball in his hand towards Holm.
But Holm had already been paying attention to his movements, so he quickly changed his position the moment the fireball was released.
Watching the fireball explode not far away, burning a big hole in the cliff, Holm also looked at Chalabi and said: "Originally, I only thought you were talkative, but now it seems that you are quite despicable. , He deserves to be the boss."
Sarabi also grinned after hearing this: "I thought you were mute, just like the agent who assassinated me before, his tongue was cut out."
Holm did not continue to respond. He just stepped on the ground and waved the sharp blade towards Chalabi. His speed was not ordinary, and he jumped half the distance in the blink of an eye.
Upon seeing this, Chalabi quickly backed away and started working with his hands while holding a cigar in his mouth. Orange-red energy cannons quickly condensed in his hands and then shot out with a bang.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!." Accompanied by an extremely explosive roar, clusters of energy cannons that were dodged by Holm fell to the ground or the cliff next to them, and then exploded with a bang, instantly blowing the smooth road into rubble. .
"It's useless. Your humanoid cannon ability poses no threat to me. You can't even touch me." Holm said as he dodged another group of energy cannons. At this time, the distance between his Sarabi It's short enough that now he can chop off an opponent's head with just a wave of his hand.
But just as Holm waved the blade, Sarabi also raised the corners of his mouth, and energy rings quickly condensed in the air around him.
These energy rings that appeared out of thin air were closer to Holm than the distance between the blade and Sarabi's head.
Holm instinctively sensed the danger when Chalabi showed a weird smile, and the venom also reminded him, so he immediately stopped and stretched out several tentacles from behind to stab the ground to assist. He stayed away from Chalabi.
"You can't run away." Chalabi looked at Holm and smiled.
As his words fell, several energy rings exploded with Sarabi as the center. The huge impact blew the surrounding rubble and vehicles off the cliff, and even Holm flew upside down and hit the cliff behind. superior.
Chapter 139, Venom: No one is allowed to pretend in front of me
"boom!"
The fragments of the cliff that were smashed by Holm's body fell onto the broken road along with his body.
Holm was slumped against a big stone, looking extremely weak, and even his arms were shaking uncontrollably.
The venom that was originally surging all over his arms has also disappeared. It seems that there is no way to reappear in a short time.
Seeing Holm's appearance, Chalabi slowly walked towards him. At the same time, he spit out the bitten cigar on the ground, then took out another one from his pocket and held it in his mouth.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, poor little agent, you came to assassinate me without even knowing my abilities. Do you think I can only rub energy cannons with my palms? They were all made deliberately to show you idiots."
As Chalabi spoke, he stretched out a finger to hold the end of the cigar, and then used his ability to light it.
"Huh~ Shutan, let me see what you look like. You look pretty good, but it's a pity that you won't survive." Sarabi exhaled pure smoke while speaking, while bending down and reaching out to pull off Holm's windproof mask. Open.
When he lifted up his mask, he saw Holm looking at him quietly with the corners of his mouth raised, a sneer and disgust.
"What are you doing!"
"Pfft!"
The moment Chalabi saw Holm's expression and demeanor, he knew he had been deceived, but before he could finish his words, a black shadow sprang out from the gravel under his feet, and then penetrated straight through his throat and head. , emerged from the top of his head.
Holm also stood up slowly at this time, looked at Chalabi with his eyes gradually losing energy and said: "I hate people who show off the most. Letting you live until now is the greatest tolerance I can have for you."
"Smoke your cigar well, it should have a different flavor even if it is stained with blood." Holm said as he stuffed the cigar that was soaked in blood into Chalabi's mouth that was constantly leaking blood.
"Plop." As the dark and sharp tentacles were pulled away from Chalabi's head, his body fell to the ground like a broken sack.
At this time, in Holm's body, Venom was also shouting with excitement and relief: "Finally let this guy know how powerful I am! If it weren't for the purpose of amplifying the weakness, I would have stabbed him into a sieve right from the beginning!"
Like Holm, Venom is also dissatisfied with Sarabi's pretentious behavior. In its opinion, only it and Holm can pretend in this world, and everyone else is just a rotten fish.
"Is the battle over? Another car is driving out of the casino. Based on the speed, it will arrive at your place in about four minutes." Daisy reminded Holm in the headset.
After hearing this, Holm also pressed the earpiece and responded: "The battle has just ended, the target has been solved, and there are no other survivors left on the scene. I will evacuate now."
"Then evacuate according to the planned route. I'll wait for you at the hotel and we'll go have lunch together later." Daisy responded with a smile.
The mission was finally over, and her second plan should begin. Now she would lay the groundwork so that she could have sex in the evening.
Holm didn't know Daisy's plan. He checked again to make sure there were no survivors, then jumped off the cliff and began to evacuate.
He had no objection to Daisy's lunch proposal, but after learning the lesson from last time, he said he would never go to a high-end restaurant again this time.
Daisy had the same idea. She still preferred roadside fast food restaurants or local restaurants to high-end restaurants where she couldn't get a bite of food for half a day. Anyway, the mission was over now, and they had no need to monitor the target.
Half an hour later, Holm and Daisy, who had returned to the city and had washed up, also walked out of the hotel and were looking for a place to have lunch.
They wandered along the roadside, smelling the aroma in the air, and decided to go to whichever one smelled good.
"It smells so good~ The taste of this restaurant is so unique. It is a local restaurant in Sokovia." Daisy said with bright eyes as she looked at the stylishly decorated restaurant in front of her.
"It's really good, then choose this one." Holm also thought this restaurant was good, and the aroma of the food filling the air was very unique.
After gaining unanimous consent, they walked into the restaurant and sat down at a window seat.
Daisy was responsible for ordering food while looking at the illustrations, while Holm sat on the chair and kept stuffing chocolate into his mouth.
Looking at the packaging bags quickly piled up on the table, Daisy also widened her eyes and said doubtfully: "Why are you eating so much chocolate? I ordered a lot of dishes, and this is already the tenth piece, you just I'm so full from all the chocolate."
Hearing Daisy's words, Holm also swallowed the chocolate in his mouth, then pretended to be mysterious and approached her and whispered softly: "This is not me eating, don't you know my abilities? It's all to replenish energy. "
After hearing Holm's explanation, Daisy instantly understood what he was talking about. After all, they had been partners for so long, and Daisy also knew some things.
"It seems that today's battle is not that simple. Is Sarabi difficult? You don't look injured, so is it because you have consumed too much energy?" Daisy asked in a low voice.
She didn't know the specific process of the battle. She just saw that Holm looked normal and completed the task in three minutes, so she thought this time was no different from previous tasks.
Holm also nodded when he heard this, then shook his head and said: "It's not easy to say. If you say it's difficult, I got rid of him quickly. If you say it's not difficult, his ability is indeed not simple."
"Mainly because his ability was a little restrained by me, so I consumed more energy. However, that guy had a character flaw and was too arrogant, so I saw the opportunity and killed him with one blow."
After listening to Holm's description, Daisy continued, "I don't know the situation of your battle. Since it consumes so much, don't be vague when writing this part of the report. The chocolates you eat can be considered as mission consumption. "
"Of course I know that." Holm said with a smile: "I'm going to quote one-third more, based on the price of the most expensive chocolate."
Daisy also raised the corner of her mouth when she heard this, and said with a sly smile: "Hehe, you are indeed my partner, your thoughts are the same as mine."
"Actually, I report the cost of every meal these days based on the price of that high-end restaurant."
"Since Uncle Colson deducted our mission funds, we have to make up for it from other places. Anyway, we are not talking nonsense, it is just a little more than the original basis."
"Yes, yes, it's just a little bit. It's far behind Chief Coulson." Holm also smiled knowingly.
Chapter 140, Wanda at the door of the pharmacy
After chatting for a while, before the dishes were all served, Holm walked out of the hotel again, planning to go to the convenience store nearby to buy some chocolate.
Since the show requires a complete set, not to mention that the small inventory has just been used up, and the chocolate in Sokovia does have a unique flavor. Not only Venom loves to eat it, but Holm is also planning to buy some to take home.
Venom took a lot of advantage in doing this scene, because it has never eaten so much chocolate in one day, and even now it talks a lot less because it has been tasting the chocolate wholeheartedly.
There were not many people in the convenience store. As soon as Holm entered, he went straight to the shelves and swept away all the chocolates on them.
Originally, he only planned to buy chocolates, but thinking that Daisy was there, he picked a few more snacks that she ate more that night and put them in the shopping basket.
Seeing Holm wrap up all the chocolates there so grandly, the cashier also hurriedly and diligently stepped forward to help him carry the somewhat heavy shopping basket.
This store is not big, so the cashier and tally clerk are both concurrently employed by the owner. This is the first time he has encountered customers with such strong spending power in such a long time that he has opened the store, and his face is almost bursting with laughter.
"Sir, do you need anything else? I can get it for you." The boss followed Holm and said, holding two large baskets full of goods in his hands.
Upon hearing this, Holm also looked at the basket that was already occupied by the boss's hands, and then looked at the empty shelves. He thought for a moment that there was nothing else needed and was ready to check out.
Upon seeing this, the boss quickly walked behind the cashier, began to calculate the total amount of the goods and helped Holm bag them.
While the boss was still calculating, Holm broke off a piece of chocolate and stuffed it into his mouth, then chewed it while looking at the street outside.
There are not many people on the street, and most of them look like tourists from other countries. Only the vendors setting up stalls and a few shopkeepers can be seen to be locals.
Holm was thinking randomly while looking around, and then suddenly saw a familiar figure at the door of the drugstore opposite the convenience store.
I saw Wanda standing at the door of the pharmacy, waiting for something. She was also wrapped in a large burgundy robe outside her clothes. She looked a little older.
Although her face is still a little pale, and she covers her mouth and coughs lightly from time to time, she has improved compared to when Holm saw her that night, and her eyes are less sad and more bright. hope.
Seeing her waiting at the door of the pharmacy while looking inside from time to time, Holm roughly knew that Pietro should be inside buying medicine for her, while she was taking advantage of the sunshine to bask in the sun outside.
It was fate to meet them again today. Holm thought for a moment, then took out his wallet, took out the card, and handed it to the boss who was concentrating on settling accounts.
"Sorry sir, the calculation is not finished yet, please wait a moment." The boss said apologetically while taking the card.
There are so many of these things, and he has only counted half of them now.
After hearing this, Holm also smiled and explained: "It doesn't matter, you can take your time and calculate."
"I think I don't have much cash on me. Can you swipe the card and exchange some cash for me?"
After hearing Holm's request, the boss certainly had no objection and readily agreed with a nod.
Then he made an operation and exchanged 4000 US dollars according to Holm's request.
This 4000 US dollars also took out all the cash in his shop, but he didn't think it was a big deal. After all, this was the request of a major customer. At most, he could just go to the ATM machine to withdraw some later.
Although he didn't know why Holm didn't go to the ATM to withdraw money but wanted to change it at his place, he thought that rich people have their own special habits, so he didn't ask any more questions and just continued to concentrate on calculating the accounts.
After taking the money, Holm picked up a box of scanned chocolates on the counter and looked at it. After observing it for a few seconds, he nodded with satisfaction and walked out of the convenience store.
At the door of the pharmacy, Wanda was leaning against the wall and squinting her eyes, feeling the heat brought to her body by the warm sunshine.
She didn't know how long it had been since she had basked in the sun so freely and peacefully.
Except for the period when she was ill and not recovering, she had been staying in the attic. Before she fell ill, she had to go back and forth with Pietro every day, either doing some chores to earn some change, or going to the trash can to see if there was anything to eat. food to get through the day.
Thinking of this, the strange man who appeared in front of her and Pietro that night came to mind again.
Mysterious, friendly, cold and scary, kind and mysterious.
These labels one after another are all based on Wanda's impression of that man. Although some labels are even contradictory, they are all justified.
What a mysterious and complicated man. I don't know what his name is, and I don't know if he is still in Sokovia. He doesn't look like a local. He should be a tourist from other countries.
Wanda just squinted her eyes while thinking about speculations about Holm's identity in her mind.
The money that Holm left for them really helped them a lot, so they had mixed feelings about Holm. They were both afraid and grateful, and they wanted to repay him, but they were a little afraid to contact him.
The look in his eyes when he put the gun against Pietro's head is still vivid in Wanda's memory. That look was not a joke, but a look of true indifference and indifference, a look that did not take human life seriously.
"It seems that the medicine I mentioned is symptomatic. Your complexion looks much better today."
Just when Wanda was feeling the warmth of the sun and thinking wildly, a familiar voice from beside her suddenly shocked her body, and she suddenly woke up from her daze.
She quickly opened her half-closed eyes and looked to the side, only to see Holm in a suit and tie leaning against the wall, looking at her with a half-smile.
"Not bad, not bad. Now he looks like an energetic young man. It can be seen that he is quite responsive." Holm said with a smile.
Wanda didn't know what to say when she heard this. Of course she could tell that Holm was teasing her for overreacting just now.
"I didn't expect to meet you here. Thank you very much for your help to us."
Wanda's mind was a little confused and she could only pick out the polite words that popped into her head at any time.
Upon seeing this, Holm also waved his hand, handed the box of chocolates in his hand to Wanda and said: "You're welcome, since we met again, it means that we are quite destined, and I will give you this box of chocolates." Now, remember to treasure it and don't throw it away."
After finishing speaking, Holm handed the chocolate to Wanda, then straightened his clothes and turned around to leave, leaving Wanda alone there in confusion and confusion.
Chapter 141, special gift
what is happening? Wanda only felt that her head was full of question marks.
While she was talking about Hom, Hom suddenly appeared. He handed her a box of chocolates out of nowhere and left again. There was no other adjective to express the whole process except fast.
More importantly, despite having been in contact again, Wanda still knew nothing about Holm, and there was no information except this box of chocolates.
"Where is this person? Emmmm"
Wanda reacted immediately and began to look for Holm, but just like last time, Holm was still so elusive and disappeared as soon as he left her side.
Faced with such a situation, Wanda could only stand at the door of the drugstore holding the box of chocolates, her mind in chaos, without a single complete thought.
While Wanda was in a daze, Pietro also opened the door of the pharmacy and walked out with a bag of medicine.
"This is your medicine. The doctor said you should be fine after taking these."
Pietro was only halfway through his words when he saw Wanda looking blankly, so he curiously looked in the direction Wanda was looking, and then looked at the chocolate in her hand and asked.
"What are you looking at? Where did this box of chocolates come from? Did you just buy it?"
"Didn't you just tell me not to spend money indiscriminately and you didn't let me buy more medicines? Why did you buy a box of chocolates now?"
"But a box of chocolates is nothing. Anyway, there is still a lot of money left from that guy. I remember that you used to like chocolate the most."
"The man just came here again, and he gave me the chocolate." Wanda looked at the chocolate in her hand and said to Pietro who was talking next to her.
"What?! He's here again? He didn't do anything to you, did he?"
"What does that guy want? Is he here to ask for money?" After hearing Wanda's words, Pietro became nervous instantly.
Wanda also shook her head when she heard this and explained: "He didn't do anything, and he didn't ask for money from me. He just gave me this box of chocolates and said that my complexion was much better than last time."
"It seemed like he was passing by and saw me, so he came over to say hello."
"I also wanted to ask him something, but he disappeared in the blink of an eye, just like last time."
After listening to Wanda's description, Pietro also scratched his head in confusion, feeling just as confused as Wanda.
Looking at the box of chocolates that Wanda held in her hand, Pietro also began to think divergently.
After a moment, he suddenly looked at Wanda nervously and said in a dry voice: "There can't be a bomb in this, right?"
"That guy can't be a terrorist. He wants to cause a terrorist attack."
Hearing Pietro's words, Wanda's heart tightened instinctively, and then gradually relaxed.
"No, there won't be a bomb here, and he won't be a terrorist."
"If he wanted to kill us, he would have done it that night. There is no need to wait until today." Wanda said, shaking his head.
"As for a terrorist or something, he probably isn't. I can feel that he has no ill intentions toward us. On the contrary, he seems to have a little bit of goodwill."
Pietro also fell silent after hearing this. He felt that what Wanda said made sense, but he also instinctively felt some hostility towards Holm.
Maybe it was because he was really frightened by the cold eyes and the gun on his forehead that night. He can still recall how cold the muzzle of the gun was.
While he was silent, Wanda also started to untie the ribbon on the chocolate box, and then slowly lifted the lid of the chocolate box.
She would only know if the bomb was opened. She didn't believe that Holm would be so bored and neurotic. He obviously let them go and gave them money, but today he sent them another bomb.
When the box was completely opened, Pietro's wild guess was overturned. There was indeed chocolate inside, not any bombs.
However, although there was no bomb, Wanda and Pietro still felt their hearts skip a beat because they saw a stack of dollar bills under the compartment containing chocolates.
These green banknotes also had a similar effect to bombs, creating an indelible impression in their hearts.
"He left us so much money again, but I don't even know his name yet." Wanda looked at the extra gifts in the chocolate box, pursing her lips and thinking to herself.
Just when they were amazed by this extra gift and even a little overwhelmed, Holm, who had given them this great gift, had already returned to the restaurant with the purchased items.
"Come on, come on, the dishes are all here! It's really delicious! I almost started eating without waiting for you to come back." Daisy urged as she looked at Holm who walked in from the door.
After hearing this, Holm also pulled up the stool and sat down. He looked at Daisy who was about to start and said, "Even if you still have some conscience and know that you are waiting for me to come back, I bought you so many snacks in vain."
Daisy had already noticed the bag in Holm's hand. Although she was already happy in her heart, she still said nonchalantly: "Humph~ You are obviously here mainly to buy chocolates, but also to buy snacks for me. By the way, it sounds like you went to buy snacks for me."
"Don't worry about what you say, just say whether you want to eat or not." Holm responded when he saw this.
Just kidding, he has already bought the snacks and spent all the money that should be spent. Daisy will have to bear this, unless she can really resist eating.
However, according to Holm's understanding of her, it is almost as difficult for her not to eat these snacks as it is for her to not complain at all when training for fighting. It is impossible.
Sure enough, after hearing Holm's words, Daisy felt guilty and did not respond. She just muttered something in her mouth and glared at him from time to time.
When Holm saw this, he ignored it and just concentrated on eating with the bowl and chopsticks and filling his stomach.
I have to say that the food in this restaurant is indeed delicious. Compared with the outrageously expensive high-end restaurant last time, it was simply beaten up.
When the food on the table was almost eaten, Daisy suddenly suggested enthusiastically: "By the way, we are leaving Sokovia tomorrow, why not go have a drink tonight."
Listening to Daisy's proposal, and thinking of her ability to drink even a wine-filled chocolate to make her drunk, Holm subconsciously wanted to refuse.
But thinking that he was going to operate secretly tonight and had to give Daisy some medicine, he swallowed his rejection back in his stomach, then nodded and happily said: "Okay, let's just experience Sokovia." nightlife."
"Hehe, it's settled then~" Daisy smiled happily, with a strange light shining in her eyes, which seemed to contain determination to win.
Chapter 142, 2 people each prepared
The urban area is still bustling at night, connected with bars and nightclubs, all of which have opened their signs and begun to attract customers.
Through the glass, you can see the colorful lights flashing inside, and some handsome guys and beauties wearing cool and hot clothes are showing off their dance moves on the stage, attracting customers outside to stop and watch, and then enter the store to make purchases.
The bar Daisy chose was not so noisy. It was like a bar where people were playing and singing songs whose lyrics they didn't understand, but the volume was adjusted just right so it wouldn't be too noisy.
At this time, Holm was sitting at a small table in the corner, drinking ice water in front of him and looking at his watch from time to time.
Ten minutes have passed since the time he and Daisy agreed, but Daisy hasn't shown up yet.
He didn't quite understand why they both lived in the same room, but they asked him to come over first.
The only way he could understand this was that maybe Daisy needed to change clothes or something, which was a little inconvenient for him, but it had already been nearly 40 minutes since he went out. What kind of clothes could take so long to change?
Finally, after Holm drank another glass of ice water, Daisy's figure finally appeared at the door.
She was wearing a black suspender skirt. Although the light was dim, her delicate collarbones and fair skin could still be seen.
The fullness of her breasts held up the black skirt, but it quickly tightened around her slender waist. Her slender legs were exposed from time to time as the skirt swayed, highlighting her exquisite figure.
Although she was dressed very sexy, the cold temperament on Daisy's face was alien to others. However, the moment she saw Holm, this cold temperament was instantly broken.
I saw her curling up her red lips, and her cold temperament instantly melted away, replaced by a hint of charm.
In tune with the soothing music in the bar, she stepped on high heels and walked step by step towards the direction of Holm. Every move showed her charm, grace and swaying.
"What? You haven't recognized me since we haven't seen each other for a while?" Daisy stroked her skirt and sat on the stool, looking at Holm who couldn't hide the surprise in his eyes and smiled.
She was very satisfied with Holm's reaction, which showed that the dress she deliberately matched today was indeed outstanding.
Thinking of this, the smile on her face became brighter, and her already bright beauty became more vivid.
Hearing Daisy's joke, Holm nodded and said sincerely: "I almost couldn't recognize you. You are a bit too beautiful tonight."
Daisy originally wanted to tease Holm, but she didn't expect Holm to be so sincere and hit her with a straight ball, which caught her off guard and made her blush.
"It's not bad. Why are you talking like that?" Daisy said while trying to pick up the water glass and drink water to hide her nervousness.
As a result, there was only Holm's water glass on the table, and there was no water in it, which made her even more embarrassed and panicked.
"Calm down, calm down, you must calm down, the plan has just begun, you must not let things slip, phew~"
"But this guy speaks too bluntly and disrupts all my plans. It's really annoying~"
Daisy pretended to be calm and put down the water glass, while frantically trying to persuade herself to calm down.
Holm didn't know what she was thinking. He just felt that Daisy, who was pretending to be calm now, looked a lot more vivid. She looked a little stupid and cute, which was quite different from the image she had dressed up for herself. .
"My negligence, because I didn't know when you would come, so I just asked for a glass of water."
"See what you want to drink first, and then ask him to bring the water together later."
Holm said as he handed the wine list on the table to Daisy.
Normally, he would have advised Daisy to have a non-alcoholic drink because her drinking capacity was really not good enough.
But now, he would have to add some ingredients later anyway, so it didn't matter whether he drank or not. Drinking would make her sleep more soundly.
"I'll take this." Daisy randomly chose a cup that looked better.
After ordering, she looked around, then stood up and said to Holm: "You order first, I'll go to the bathroom."
Holm nodded when he heard this, and then took out a small capsule from his pocket after watching Daisy enter the toilet.
This is the medicinal powder he prepared in advance. After special calculations, it will probably allow Daisy to sleep until tomorrow morning, which is about the same time as her normal wake-up time.
After a while, he will start to take action after the wine is served. It will take about half an hour from the time the medicine is administered to the time when the effect of the medicine takes effect. This half hour is enough to create a wine party that is covert.
In the bathroom, Daisy first checked her makeup, opened a small bag and applied a little bit of lipstick on herself, then opened a pre-wrapped tissue and took out a white pill from it.
"Come on, with its help, you will definitely be able to drink a thousand glasses of wine tonight and get that guy drunk." Daisy cheered herself up in the mirror, and then swallowed the pills with the drinking water next to her. Go down.
Of course she knew she wasn't a good drinker, especially after the embarrassing experience of falling asleep while eating chocolate the last time.
So today's drinking game was not because she didn't know herself, but because she had already made preparations and bought powerful hangover medicine in advance.
As long as she takes this medicine 15 minutes before drinking, she can escape the fate of drinking one glass tonight and drink Holm down abruptly.
And as long as Holm is drunk, what happens next will depend on what she says.
"Hehehe~" Daisy couldn't help but giggle when she thought of the image of Holm lying drunk on the bed and letting her do what she wanted.
With such a thorough plan, her action tonight will definitely be successful, Holm is determined! No one can be kept when they come!
By the time she returned to the table, the drinks and snacks they ordered had already been placed on the table.
Daisy sat back down confidently, then picked up her cocktail glass, clinked it with Holm and said, "With the first drink today, I wish our mission will be successfully completed, let's do it~"
After she finished speaking, she opened her red lips slightly and drank the orange-red wine in the wine glass in one gulp.
Holm originally wanted to slow down the pace. After all, the medicine had already been administered, so there was no need to be too anxious. However, seeing that Daisy's pace was so intense, he raised his head and drank the wine in his hand. .
Fifteen minutes later, Daisy fell down on the table and fell asleep with a red face and blurred eyes.
Seeing this scene in front of him, Holm, who was sitting opposite, didn't know what to say for a moment.
He was still waiting for half an hour for the medicine to take effect, but he didn't expect that Daisy would drink herself and pass out in just 15 minutes.
Chapter 143, start of action and infiltration
Deep in the Sokovia forest, outside the base of the Hydra branch, Holm was standing on a big tree, looking at the gray-white castle in front of him.
"Sure enough, just like in the movie, the Hydra branch in Sokovia looks quite historical." Holm thought to himself while observing the surrounding situation.
An hour had passed since the wine party, and the drunk Daisy was finally taken back to the hotel by Holm and put on the bed.
Although there were some hiccups, his plan was still successful. Under the subsequent effects of the drug, Daisy slept peacefully. She did not wake up during the process of being taken back to the hotel, and her breathing was always steady.
After making sure that everything was normal and there were no unexpected incidents, Holm set out from the hotel and came here to perform his final mission.
Daisy will wake up and get up as usual tomorrow morning, and they will leave Sokovia together at noon, so the time for Holm to perform the task is only from now to tomorrow morning, and he must complete it at once without any mistakes.
Just as Holm was looking at the castle where Sokovia Hydra was spread out and observing the surrounding guards, Venom also said in his mind: "Tsk, tsk, tsk, there are so many people here, except for the buildings on the ground. , there are many levels underground."
"It's a pity. There are so many people right in front of us, but we can't even chew a single head, hey~"
Listening to Venom's complaint, Holm also responded in his mind: "Okay, okay, I know you haven't bitten your head during this period. I will find some for you when you get back."
"Although you haven't eaten much during this period, you have eaten a lot of chocolate, especially yesterday. Think about how much you ate."
"Chocolate is chocolate, snacks are snacks, how can they be confused." Venom muttered after hearing this.
"Besides, I didn't take the initiative to eat those chocolates. Isn't it all for our overall benefit and plan?"
"Oh, so what you said makes you feel wronged?" Holm said teasingly.
"Since you said so, I'm not a cruel person. I won't let you eat chocolate for the next two days. You should have an empty stomach to avoid feeling tired."
When it came to chocolate, Venom immediately changed his attitude. He changed his pretentious attitude and licked his face to please: "Hey, look at what you said, I'm not joking."
"Hehehe, listen to you, listen to you, I'll find snacks to eat when I get back, I'm not in a hurry, hehe."
"Yes, yes, I have found the target of this mission. He is on the second underground floor of the main building of the castle. There are many guards around it."
"The two core teams are very weird. They are like robots and don't say anything. Their breaths are also weird. Just in case, please pay attention to them later."
While Venom was speaking, the perception map of the castle had already appeared in Holm's mind. After his strange energy catalysis during this period, Venom's various abilities have become much stronger, including the range and accuracy of perception. .
"Brush!" Holm gently took out the short knife and held it in his hand, and started to act along the best route he had thought of in his head.
It was already late at night, and there wouldn't be many people moving around. Only the people guarding the castle would be patrolling continuously.
As long as Holm can clear out everyone on this route without being discovered, he will have achieved a perfect infiltration.
"Stab!"
"brush!"
As Holm advanced and infiltrated, each Hydra member was quietly sent to the west with his short knife. In less than 10 minutes, he had broken through the side of the castle.
At this time, in the center of the second underground floor, Baron Strucker had not rested yet. He was sitting in front of a large desk, leaning on a chair and flipping through information.
The cigar held between his fingers shone with a faint orange-red light. As he took a deep breath, the light instantly became dazzling. At the same time, a large amount of pure smoke was exhaled from his mouth and slowly drifted upward.
The information in his hand records the latest research of the Sokovia Hydra branch.
The brainless warriors he and Dr. List mentioned last time who had no thoughts and could only fight were the by-products of this research.
Their ultimate goal is to develop a way to turn ordinary people into superhuman beings.
This plan was born out of the super soldier research project during World War II, which was the project that created Captain America.
However, after the development of the times and these years of research, they are no longer satisfied with the level of Captain America, but want to create more powerful super humans.
It doesn't take many such super humans. As long as there are dozens of them, he can control the entire Hydra organization and replace Pierce as the new leader of Hydra.
Thinking of this, Baron Strucker couldn't help but think of Pierce's old and disgusting face again.
Hydra has always been a global organization, but their organizational focus will also change with the development of the times.
Europe used to be the organizational center of Hydra, so the Sokovia branch in Eastern Europe also occupied a pivotal position. This castle with rich history is the best proof.
However, with the development of the times and the defeat of Germany, which was heavily bet by Hydra during World War II, Hydra also took advantage of the situation to be destroyed and escaped on the surface, but in fact it was hidden in a deeper shadow.
In this process, part of Hydra's power was absorbed by the emerging superpower, and it laid a solid foundation there, relying on the shell of SHIELD to survive and grow.
Over time, the power of Hydra over there became the core that dominated the entire Hydra organization, and Baron Strucker, the senior and long-standing Hydra name, gradually moved away from the center, and was gradually ignored and looked down upon. .
Now even Pierce, a guy who has no historical heritage at all and relies entirely on S.H.I.E.L.D., can yell at him and show the power of the leader of Hydra in front of him.
Baron Strucker has endured this situation for a long time, and now he finally decided to break up and no longer tolerate it.
The two special guard forces outside the door are the violent soldiers perfected by Dr. Lister. After a series of operations, they have been stripped of their violent character and have become completely brainless puppets.
As long as instructions are given to them through special instructions, they will obey and start taking action. Unless the order is changed, they will never stop until the order is completed.
Although it is still far different from the thoughtful finished product, this kind of power is enough for him to cause trouble for Pierce.
Chapter 144, Brainless War Machine
In the passage on the second underground floor, Holm was slowly removing the cover of the ventilation duct, and then placed a palm-sized black instrument on the ceiling and pressed it to start.
"Buzz!"
As an invisible radio wave spread, the surveillance video on this floor was frozen. No matter what subsequent actions Holm took, the surveillance video in the surveillance room would not change in any way.
Two seconds after the black instrument was activated, Holm also jumped down from the ventilation duct and landed silently on the ground.
From here to the center, you need to pass through three groups of patrolling guards. The outermost guards are ordinary guards, while the two groups inside are guards whose aura is a little weird when Venom feels it.
"Kaka!" Holm moved his neck and wrist, and then walked quickly in one direction based on the perception in his mind.
As he walked, his hands began to change shapes and turned into two black sharp blades. At the same time, several sharp tentacles stretched out from his back, swaying gently following Holm's steps.
"It's still the same as before, move quickly and don't let them make any noise." Holm said to Venom as he walked.
Venom also nodded when he heard this. It cooperated with Holm not once or twice. It was already familiar with such things and guaranteed not to make any mistakes.
"I'm becoming more and more curious about what's going on with the two groups of people with abnormal auras at the back, because the closer I get to them, the more weird I can feel them." Venom said to Holm.
"I'm curious too, but we'll find out the answer soon." Holm said while sticking to the wall at the corner, listening to the patrolling guards getting closer and closer to them.
Just as the first patrolling guard stepped past Holm and saw his figure, Holm took action and cut off his neck instantly with the sharp hand knife.
The few people behind saw this scene and their eyes widened immediately, but in the end their shouts could only be muffled in their chests, because the venom had manipulated the sharp tentacles to pierce their throats and twist their throats. neck.
From the time of contact to the end, it took no more than three seconds, and such a group of defenders was wiped out instantly.
After doing all this, Holm just shook off the blood on his hands, stepped over the bodies of these people, and continued walking inside.
He and Venom have cooperated in scenes like this too many times without any hesitation.
"Closer, closer, I can already smell the weird scent on them." Venom said while feeling the distance.
"These people are really weird. I can't smell the smell coming from their heads. There seems to be nothing in their heads?"
"This is unreasonable. Normal humans have emotions. When they have emotions, they secrete hormones. When hormones exist, they have taste. How could there be someone who has no taste at all?"
Venom is also puzzled by the weirdness of these people.
Holm was not surprised. While feeling the distance between him and these people in his mind, he said to Venom: "The location we are in now is the core of Hydra's distribution. They do all kinds of crazy experiments." It's been here, so any strange things wouldn't be too strange here."
"Isn't it just secreting hormones? The impossible situation you mentioned may be the situation we are encountering now. These people may not have thinking."
"Without thinking, there would be no emotions, no hormones, no taste."
"It seems that Baron Strucker has formed two teams of emotionless personal guards for himself."
While Holm was talking, he was getting closer and closer to the special guard.
Soon, after turning a corner, these special guards, who were each over two meters tall and looked like little giants, appeared in his eyes.
They were just as he expected. There was no emotion in the eyes under the masks, and there was no trace of life in the group of people.
At the same time that they appeared in Home's field of vision, Home had already been seen by them and marked the unknown intruder.
These little giants walked in unison, and the sound they made when they stepped on the ground was dull and loud.
After approaching Holm, they suddenly changed their formation and surrounded Holm in a semi-surrounding formation.
"If I couldn't feel that their bodies were made of real flesh and blood, I would have doubted whether these guys were robots." Looking at the uniform movements of these special guards, Holm also complained to Venom in his heart.
Venom laughed strangely when he heard this and said, "I can't wait to take one apart to see what's different inside."
While the two were communicating, the special guards had already taken the lead in taking action. Their tall and strong bodies moved at a strange speed, and their fists as big as basketballs hit Holm with a roaring sound through the air.
Upon seeing this, Holm also transformed his left hand into a pitch black shield to block the punch, feeling how powerful these special guards were.
"It's so powerful!" Seeing that his feet had broken through the ground and sunk in, Holm had to sigh that although these guys have no brains, their physical fitness is probably all maxed out, and they can actually have such huge strength. .
Although they did not wear thermal weapons, Holm estimated that these people should have relevant skills, so if these people appeared on the battlefield, every one of them would be a human tank.
But for Holm, although these special guards are special, they are not much different from ordinary people.
Because they can't really have reinforced iron bones like tanks. Even if their bone density is higher and their bones are harder, they still can't stop Holm's blade.
"I've already felt it, so I don't need to play with you anymore. Next, let me see if there is anything special inside you."
While thinking, Holm turned his hands into blades, and then slashed at the iron fist of this special guardian.
"Brush! Brush! Brush!" Although he could feel the obvious obstruction, Holm's hand knife still cut off all their arms.
After losing an arm, these special guards did not hesitate at all. They immediately clenched their other fist and attacked Holm again.
Faced with this almost unchanged offensive, Holm also shook his head. Feeling bored, he also sped up his movements and directly cut these special guards into human sticks.
After this team was finished, there was a second team. Because he had already seen their power, Holm did not waste any more time and finished the second team at a faster speed.
Chapter 145, Recruitment and Trump Cards
"It's really boring. It's just that the physical fitness has been comprehensively improved. It may be better than Captain America during World War II, but not having a brain is a flaw. No matter how strong the physical fitness is, it is still fish on the chopping board." Holm looked at the ground. The severed limbs shook his head and said very disappointedly.
In his mind, Venom also shook his head, looking down on these special guards: "It's just rubbish that's still in the core area. I felt their strange aura and thought there would be some kind of surprise."
While Holm and Venom were talking, the closed alloy door in front of them slowly opened.
Looking at this scene, Holm also restored his palm to its original shape. The person inside was so self-conscious that it saved him some effort.
He stepped into the door, and after passing through a corridor, a wooden door that was slowly opening appeared in front of him.
Inside the wooden door is a large, gorgeous, elegant and heavy living room. A man with a monocle is sitting on the sofa and looking at Holm who walks in, holding a glass of red wine in his hand and shaking it slowly.
"Want a drink? It tastes most mellow at this time." Looking at Holm walking in, Baron Strucker also raised the red wine in his hand and said.
Holm also smiled when he saw this, and then walked to sit on the sofa next to Baron Strucker and said: "No need, work must be like work. I don't have the habit of drinking during working hours."
"Ha, it's working time. I almost forgot. You should have come to kill me." After hearing Holm's words, Baron Strucker also smiled and shook his head.
"That old guy Pierce is so quick to strike, and he can really hide it. I don't even know when he got a secret weapon like you."
When he said this, Baron Strucker also put down his wine glass, sat up straight and stared at Holm and said: "Although you blocked the camera outside, I have seen the way you fought at the door through the monitor on the door. "
"How should I put it? It's really enviable and enviable. Such a powerful combat power and such a special ability~ Isn't this the super soldier I have always dreamed of?"
"What conditions can Pierce give you, a promotion? Or a salary increase? That old guy values the authority in his hands more than anything else. It's impossible for you to reach a high position under him."
"Even though you have such great power, you are just his pawn."
Baron Strucker also fell silent at this point, his sharp eyes looking at the smooth black on Holm's face, as if he wanted to see through him and see through his true thoughts.
But Holm remained unmoved and tilted his head slightly, his dark face with unclear features facing him, as if he was listening to him attentively.
Seeing Holm's actions, Baron Strucker also stopped being silent for a moment and continued to speak: "Come with me, I can give you everything you want, power, status, you will definitely get it when you are here with me Get everything that matches your abilities."
"As long as I become the leader of Hydra, I will hand over the North American part to you. We will divide the world into two, half of you and half of me. We can control the world!"
"So come on! Join me! I can let you take over the world with me, something Pierce can never promise!"
Baron Strucker spoke impassionedly, and at the same time personally poured Holm a glass of wine and placed it on the table.
Looking at the red wine on the table, Holm also chuckled and picked it up.
The red wine sparkled under the light like flowing gems, and as he shook it gently, streams of aroma continued to emit.
"I have to say, these words you said really surprised me. Although I know most of them are farts, I admire you for being able to fart." Holm said with a hint of sarcasm.
After hearing his words, the smile that Baron Strucker had been maintaining froze on his face.
"Baron Strucker, I have given you enough time, how long do you want to linger?"
"Let's do it when it's time to do it. I'm already impatient with waiting."
Holm looked at Baron Strucker, whose face was stiff. continued.
Just as he finished speaking, an invisible force suddenly strangled his neck. At the same time, a needle filled with turbid liquid appeared out of thin air in the air next to him.
The needle floated in the air out of thin air, and then stabbed Holm's neck fiercely.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye, but Baron Strucker, who was sitting next to him, did not feel the slightest bit happy when he saw this scene happening in front of him.
Because Holm's words just now proved that he knew the back-up plan left by Baron Strucker, so how could he just sit there and wait for them to take action without making some preparations.
Everything was exactly as he thought. The transparent needle stopped firmly 5 centimeters away from Holm's neck, because a sharp black tentacle had sprung out from Holm's shoulder and penetrated directly. The air behind the transparent needle tube began to strangely flow out a large amount of blood.
At the same time, several sharp black tentacles also stretched out. Some of them extended to the upper and rear parts of Holm's head, and they seemed to be entangled with something.
Some of them extended to the outside of Holm's neck, and then they were tightly wrapped around something, and they were slowly pulling it away.
From the beginning to now, even if this unknown force suddenly acts on him, Holm has not panicked at all. The cup in his hand is still shaking slowly, and the wine is rippling along with his shaking. open.
Suddenly he stopped shaking, lifted the glass, and poured the red wine behind him.
The crimson wine flowed freely in the air, and then followed the invisible curves to outline a figure who was being controlled by the venom's tentacles and unable to move.
"Crack!" With a crisp sound, the venom's tentacles directly broke the neck of the invisible figure, and then threw it into the middle of Holm and Baron Strucker.
Gradually, this invisible body gradually revealed its original appearance as its vitality passed away. This was a young man with a well-proportioned figure, who looked no more than thirty years old and had no clothes.
"How did you know about his existence!" Baron Strucker finally panicked at this time.
This invisible man was his last trump card, but now this trump card was easily broken by Holm's neck, cut off his life, and thrown to his feet like a dead dog.
At this time, he looked at Holm's black face without any light, and finally felt a fear that everything was out of control.
