Chapter 493 Help
Chapter 493 Help
Just as Magneto took the Elite Members of his Mutant Brotherhood to plan an attack on Stryker’s base camp, Captain Rogers located in SHIELD headquarters in Washington, also received news from Tony.
Tony and Mirage Knight have become very popular after Mandarin’s attack on Iron Man not long ago. After Tony made a high-profile announcement of his revenge against Mandarin, Rogers and the others did not intervene as Tony didn’t ask for their help.
Now that Iron Man has already stated his attitude to deal with the terrorist named Mandarin, SHIELD obviously does not need to intervene. Moreover, Captain Rogers needs to do a lot of other things.
Dr. Banner is on his way back to the United States, and he will probably be back in a few days. At that time, both the scientific and technological strength and the military force around Rogers will increase by a lot. The subsequent after-effects of the removal of former Director Fury of SHIELD have gradually emerged.
Although Fury has been detained and he no longer has any pull inside SHIELD, some actions he set up before are attacking the guys above the World Security Council who pulled him down. Captain Rogers just needs to stand aside and watch carefully, and then intervene at the critical moment to achieve his goal.
“Tony, shouldn’t you be dealing with Mandarin? Why are you calling me?” Rogers asked faintly while looking at Tony’s image displayed on the tablet.
Although Tony explained in the live broadcast that Mandarin’s bombing attack was due to the Self-Destructing people but this has not aroused the interest of SHIELD or Captain Rogers.
In SHIELD’s view, although these Enhanced People can be regarded as something special for anyone but for SHIELD, this is just another Tuesday.
They deal with major events that threaten the safety of the entire planet. Moreover, Iron Man is already taking action against them so Rogers will certainly not steal Iron Man’s limelight. Therefore, Rogers is still a little confused about Tony’s call at this time.
“I will deal with Mandarin but I have run into some problems.” Hearing Rogers’ words, Tony said seriously.
“What’s the problem? Do you need me to dispatch SHIELD’s personals?” Rogers raised an eyebrow after seeing Tony’s serious expression.
“You don’t have to do that, I just need some help. It’s just a terrorist, I can handle him.”
“What’s the problem then?”
“Wasn’t SHIELD doing the Project Insight before? Although Hydra was exposed before they could implement this but I don’t believe you guys didn’t perfect the system afterward.” Without directly speaking about the kind of help he wanted, Tony continued.
“Project Insight? Indeed, we did continue to improve this system. However, the improved Project Insight is no longer the original Project Insight that was in Hydra’s hands. It is now only used as a global monitoring system. As for the monitoring system’s data that was used to predict everyone’s future. We have not yet planned to do that step, yet.” It’s not surprising that Tony knew these things and Captain Rogers answered truthfully.
Project Insight was designed to predict and eliminate threats before they can happen by using upgraded Helicarriers linked to the targeting satellites. However, this included many important people, innocents, and Vigilantes.
This was due to HYDRA secretly infiltrating S.H.I.E.L.D. Project Insight’s targets were chosen using an algorithm designed by Arnim Zola to identify anyone who could be a threat to HYDRA, using the personal information available online.
However, the early exposure of Hydra prevented Project Insight from completing. When SHIELD later continued this plan, there was no complete Zola algorithm, so the current Project Insight is still a long way from predicting a person’s future.
“Of course I know that you cannot predict the future of someone. Even with the original Zola algorithm, it would have been quite difficult. How can the future be predicted so well? However, I do need the help of your Insight System this time. I need it to find someone.” Tony said directly when he heard Rogers’ words. He just needed the Insight Project to find someone.
“You need to find someone? This is relatively simple for the Insight System. Tell me who are you looking for? Is it Mandarin?” Hearing Tony’s words, Rogers nodded and asked again. Using the Insight System to find a terrorist is a little overkill for SHIELD, but this terrorist has already caused many innocent to die and Rogers doesn’t mind using the Insight System to find him.
“There is someone other than Mandarin who I need to find.” Since Rogers is willing to help, Tony certainly doesn’t mind letting him help thoroughly.
“Who?”
“Aldrich Killian.” Tony then spoke Killian’s name. Compared to Mandarin, Killian should be easier to find.
“Aldrich Killian? Well, I’ll help you find these two guys.” When Tony said another name, Rogers agreed directly. Then Rogers was ready to hang up the video call.
“Yes, there is one more thing. Rogers, you, as the current Director of SHIELD, are also the national hero Captain America. Your current identity should be able to play a lot on the president’s side, right?” Just as Rogers’s head moved away from the camera, Tony’s voice came from the tablet again.
However, what Tony asked this time made Rogers even more puzzled. Tony actually asked Rogers about his relationship with the President, is Tony Stark interested in these politicians? As one of the richest people, Tony hardly deals with superficial politicians. He even offended many congressmen in the Iron Man incident.
“What do you want with him?” Rogers asked seriously. Although Rogers is also very uncomfortable with those politicians, the President is still good, and he can’t let Tony mess around with him.
“Relax, I have no problem with this incompetent President. After all, although he is incompetent, at least he has done nothing wrong. I just want you to remind him that not everyone around him is trustworthy.” Seeing Rogers’ expression, Tony guessed what he was thinking, and replied directly.
“People around him? Who are you talking about?”
“What do you think?”
Rogers “Could it be...The Vice President?!”
