Chapter 624 People from NASA
Franz takes Bond and Madeleine on a tour of the desert base.
And he told all the conspiracies against Bond over the years.
Madeleine looked at Bond with sympathy.
This child has suffered so much...
After hearing this, Luke felt a little sympathetic towards Bond.
How much Franz hates Bond.
Killing people is not enough...
Luke licked his lips and praised inwardly: How perverted... He is very much like me back then...
Looking back on what he had done, Luke felt that he was a bit hypocritical.
It doesn’t matter, I, Luke Shameless Qin, am just that double-standard.
Franz secures Bond to a table chair.
Surrounded by various robotic arms.
Franz and Madeleine sat opposite Bond.
Franz also briefed Bond on what was going to happen.
He would use a small electric shock to penetrate Bond's brain and destroy his brain tissue.
Make him into an amnesiac fool.
He wanted to see Bond tense, panicked, terrified.
But Bond smiled.
He was confident that Luke was outside and would not let anything happen to him.
The facts were indeed as Bond guessed.
Luke was indeed monitoring here, but not on the outskirts of this base.
There are desert plains for dozens of kilometers around here, and nothing can be hidden at all.
Luke didn't want to lie there and eat roasted sand...
So, he was now on the invisible Pelican above the base.
There are two more drones below.
He really didn't want anything to happen to Bond.
The drill on the robotic arm was close to Bond's head.
Bond is still wondering why Luke hasn't come yet.
No, we can't count on Luke, who is unreliable.
Then he remembered the exploding watch he had taken from Mr. Q at the MI6.
I was about to say something.
The roof of this room was hit by an air-to-ground missile.
Immediately afterwards, several air-to-ground missiles attacked various areas of the base.
Bond took the opportunity to break free, picked up Madeleine from the ground and started running out.
I have to say that Bond's qualities are still very good.
One shot killed a little Karami, and he fought his way out.
Where were he and Madeline? They dusted themselves off, as if nothing had happened.
The two held hands and got on the base's helicopter and left.
The base was damaged and explosions were heard one after another.
Luke looked at the devastated base and shook his head.
Bond has a bad habit of not firing again.
Franz was not dead.
After his men rescued him, they left in a helicopter at the other end of the base.
Such a big base, just abandon it like this?
Luke sent out a drone to continue keeping an eye on Franz.
He himself did not leave here.
Sure enough, an hour later, a convoy arrived here.
The surface base was simply cleaned up.
Then they entered the underground of the base from here.
Based on their location analysis, it may be a base deep underground.
These people went in and didn't come out for a long time.
Even Luke was a little curious.
These guys...are they creating some kind of biochemical crisis again?
He remembered that the base called Hive in Raccoon City, Colorado was so hidden.
Just when Luke was wondering whether he should go down and check it out himself, the group returned to the ground.
Not only did people come out, but they also brought out several huge boxes.
According to the feedback from the reconnaissance equipment, there should be an unknown non-metallic material inside.
When put together, they form a ring-shaped device.
"Lilith~"
"boss."
"Look up the key players in that conference Bond went to Rome for."
"Okay, boss."
Lilith is as efficient as ever.
Luke took the information in his hand and started reading it.
Most of these forces have involvement in both the black and white worlds, and are distributed throughout Europe.
Since Central Europe is Selene's territory, they are the ones in charge of white business there.
They can be found in all the major countries of Western Europe.
There are more underworld forces here.
After memorizing the names of people from various forces, Luke put down the information and began to ponder.
Franz was able to start from scratch and build up such a huge business as Spectre. It is unlikely that he would be easily wiped out by Bond.
Such a person would not be so stupid, nor would he ruin his career because of Bond and his deformed brotherly relationship.
So the question is, what kind of situation would make Franz give up his family business and chase after Bond?
Luke's fingers tapped rhythmically on the armrest of the airline seat.
"Boss, those people are leaving."
The people at the base packed up their equipment and items to be transported and prepared to leave.
Even the personnel inside the base were taken away. It seems that this base has to be abandoned.
"The scenery here is nice, it would be nice to build a hotel here."
"Lilith..."
After instructing Lilith, Luke stood up, raised his hand to summon a blue circle of light, and walked in.
Passing through the blue light circle, Luke came to the inside of the base.
In the machine room, Luke plugged in a communications connector.
After being inserted into the base's circuit system, Lilith immediately took over various systems within the base.
"Boss, the base has initiated the self-destruct sequence. There are still three minutes left."
"Tell me where the bomb is?"
"Okay, boss."
Three minutes later, a huge explosion was heard on the surface of the base.
The leader of the departing convoy stopped the car, looked in the direction of the base where explosions and flames were rising into the sky, and nodded with satisfaction.
The convoy continued to move forward and left the desert.
Lilith's reconnaissance drone tracked them all the way to the beach.
The underground base, Luke kept it.
But there isn't much information in it.
These are all data for studying the material of the ring-shaped stone.
This thing is pitch black, it is not naturally formed at all, and it is not a known substance on Earth.
Inside the base there is research material, but not much.
A lot of hard drives containing data were removed and taken away by those people.
"Boss, the team loaded the stuff onto a plane."
Luke found a chair in the ruins and sat down.
Take out the tablet.
The drone footage was taken in the desert near the coastal city of western Morocco.
This is also a plain area, very suitable for aircraft takeoff and landing.
Parked on the ground is a C130 transport plane.
The convoy is loading supplies onto the plane.
According to the logo on the plane, the aircraft belongs to NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration).
Looking at the images taken by the drone, Luke fell into deep thought again.
Franz has a connection to NASA?
This left Luke puzzled.
"Where is Franz?"
"He is in the hospital in Casablanca now."
"No hurry, let's follow that plane first."
After the convoy loaded the supplies, not many people got on the plane.
The rest of the group returned to the convoy.
The plane began to taxi slowly, then accelerated and rushed into the sky.
Luke followed in the Pelican.
Logically speaking, as long as Lilith captures the signal of the plane, she can lock its position based on satellite positioning.
But Luke was worried.
Satellites cannot monitor all weather conditions around the clock, and ground weather also has a great impact.
Luke spent the rest of the time tracking the plane.
After refueling at a base in Iceland, the plane flew to the United States.
Generally speaking, flights across the Atlantic Ocean take an arc.
Crossings are extremely rare.
There didn't seem to be anything special about the plane, and it was still flying to the United States along its normal route.
Eventually, the plane landed at the Kennedy Space Center in eastern Florida.
It landed at night.
The contents of the plane were quickly removed.
Could it be that the CIA and Franz reached some agreement?
Luke was still guessing, but those things had been transported inside the base.
After asking Lilith to dispatch a drone to continue monitoring the area, Luke returned to Europe.
"Pay close attention to the recent movements of those people in the Spectre Party."
"Okay, boss."
"Send this list and information to Selene. Ask her to send someone to keep an eye on it. Be careful not to alert the enemy."
"Okay, boss."
Rubbing his forehead, Luke felt like his brain was not enough.
Lilith keeps an eye on what's happening in the open, because she can only monitor things related to the Internet.
Most of these underground forces do not trust the Internet.
This part has to be monitored by manpower.
With Lilith and Selene's people working together, Luke will be able to guess Che Franz's purpose after a while.
"Back to France."
"Okay, boss."
Luke was still excited about the young Italian widow, so he went back to enjoy himself.
But he was also worried that Franz's people would take revenge on her.
Although Mr. Yang's security team is very capable, Luke is still a little worried.
So I contacted some people I hadn't contacted for a long time.
"Mr. Qin?"
"It's me, Sloane."
Luke stated his purpose directly.
"I need some people to protect important goals. The time is uncertain, and they need to plan for long-term work."
Sloan didn't hesitate and asked Luke directly:
"How many people are needed? What target are they protecting? Where is her danger coming from?"
Luke briefly explained it and Sloan agreed and arranged for someone to contact Luke.
Just after spending a day with Lucia, the people sent by Sloan arrived.
Firefox led the team, with a total of 8 people.
Luke had seen them before. Three of them were elite killers under Sloan, but he didn't recognize the rest.
However, Firefox found Luke and explained his purpose.
This time Firefox will lead the team for a while.
Then he will leave here with two people, and the remaining six people plan to retire.
Therefore, for long-term missions, these killers who are about to retire are just right for long-term protection of Lucia.
Luke didn't say anything. As long as the salary was in place, it wasn't a problem.
Lucia has already started her work in France.
With her charming appearance and elegant temperament, she really amazed everyone in the top circles in France.
Many enthusiastic French men began to pursue Lucia.
But how could a woman who had been protected by a lion fall in love with a hyena?
Lucia's background is mysterious, and even now, even the French upper class doesn't know her details.
Lucia, parachuted here in France, is mysterious and powerful.
Once those suitors understood Lucia's aura when she was traveling, no one dared to make a move on her.
This is no ordinary woman.
Naturally, Lucia looked down on these French men.
Daily milk method.
One third of French men followed Joan of Arc to meet God.
A third followed Emperor Napoleon and fell at Waterloo.
Another third died at Verdun.
Now, only women and foreigners can save France.
Just then, a foreign woman came...
Lucia has a love-hate relationship with the Spectre Party.
What she hated was that those people once wanted to kill her to silence her.
What she loves is that if her ex-husband hadn’t died because of the Ghost Party, she wouldn’t have met Luke.
Luke knew very well that as a woman, you can't let her think about men all day long.
They must be given something to do, otherwise the men will have a hard time.
Since Lucia has ambition, ability, and a very high level of skills...
Then let her save France.
After handing over to Miss Firefox, Luke went to England.
There was no choice but Franz went to England.
It seems that he still can't let go of Bond in his heart.
When Bond returned to England, he had to report to MI6.
After being suspended, he can no longer run around.
Mrs. M's successor, now Mr. M, doesn't dare let Bond cause trouble again.
Mr. Q and his secretary had previously helped Bond conceal his whereabouts.
But Bond is really good at causing trouble.
So in the end I had to go back to the Military Intelligence Department.
But after a brief honeymoon period with Bond, Madeleine is ready to break up with Bond.
In theory, I don't want to live the kind of life with Bond, full of bullets and swords.
For the second time, Bond's charm failed to work on women.
The first time was Lucia...
There's no way, Luke is taller, more handsome and younger than him.
The important thing is... I am richer than him...
Bond renovated his old home based on the incident with Silva last time.
Not only that, he also received a large sum of compensation, which made him a small rich man.
But compared to Luke, he is really a poor guy...
On the night that Madeleine and Bond broke up, Mr. M was attacked on the way back to MI6 with Bond.
It was naturally Franz who took action.
At the former MI6 headquarters, Franz also wants to play games with Bond.
Luke couldn't stand Franz's nagging and complaining.
They borrowed Carter's SBS commandos and airdropped directly to the former site of the Military Intelligence Bureau.
He took his men to take care of Franz.
The SBS team was indeed an elite force and quickly took control of the situation.
Even the bomb that Franz prepared was useless to Luke.
However, Bond still performed the hero-saving-the-beauty scene.
Madeleine, who was kidnapped by Franz, was rescued by Bond in the building.
Franz and his men were captured.
And Franz showed no surprise.
He accepted the fact that he was caught very calmly.
Bond successfully won the beauty.
Luke also learned about another battlefield from Lilith.
Mr. C, the head of the UK National Security Center, was killed by Mr. M.
Luke looked back and was surprised.
Moriarty vs. Voldemort...
In the end, the one who plays with intelligence still cannot beat the one who plays with force...
Mr. C was killed and his true identity was exposed.
He is a person planted by the SPECTRE in the British government.
Luke couldn't wait any longer, so he found a room at the old site of the Military Intelligence Department.
Alone with Franz.
Without saying anything, Luke drank a bottle of truth serum.
Then, Luke learned the truth from Franz and understood all the reasons why he did this.
