Chapter 303 Nick Fury's Question

"Wow~"

A bucket of ice water was poured on Pierce's face, causing his body to tremble violently. As if stimulated by the cold water temperature, his eyes opened instantly, his pupils contracted, and he suddenly woke up from his coma.

The golden hair that was originally combed neatly now drooped on Pierce's forehead and ears, and the remaining water droplets slowly dripped down his cheeks. Pierce, who had just woken up, looked around with a look of fear and confusion.

Soon, he understood his current situation and saw Nick Fury in a black windbreaker in front of him.

"Nick Fury."

"Alexander Pierce."

Nick Fury looked at his old friend with a calm expression, his eyes steady and sharp, as if he could see through Pierce's heart. The black windbreaker and clothes made him look particularly calm and oppressive in the dim interrogation room.

"I never thought you would deceive me for so long. For so many years, you kept the entire SHIELD in the dark."

Pierce took a deep breath and tried to appear calm. In fact, he still didn't know why Iron Man and Captain America broke into his office and brought him here. Was his identity really exposed?

As for the possibility of his identity being exposed, Pierce still didn't quite believe it. After all, he had already reached the position of Minister of the World Security Council, and his identity couldn't be exposed just like that.

However, Pierce didn't have time to think about whether he was likely to be exposed. He had to get through the hurdle in front of him first.

"Fury, what exactly happened? Don't you know how serious a crime it is to kidnap the minister of the World Security Council?" Pierce said to Nick Fury.

Nick Fury looked at Alexander Pierce coldly, without a trace of fluctuation in his eyes, as if he was looking at a stranger. He took a deep breath and asked:

"So, why did you choose me to be the director of SHIELD? I want to know the reason."

Pierce was slightly stunned. When SHIELD had been almost infiltrated by Hydra, he decided to resign from the position of Director of SHIELD and chose to climb to a higher position, allowing Hydra to follow his pace and invade more important institutions.

Nick Fury is a person Pierce values ​​very much. He knows that Nick Fury is very capable, so he decided to give him the position of director of SHIELD. Pierce believes that with Nick Fury's ability, he will definitely lead SHIELD to a better future, stabilize the situation and promote its development. This is also a good thing for Hydra. Because the stronger SHIELD is, the stronger the Hydra forces attached to SHIELD will be.

After Pierce left SHIELD, his own exposure risk was greatly reduced. As Nick Fury's promoter and former boss, he was able to skillfully use Nick Fury's status and influence to further infiltrate Hydra's power within SHIELD and gradually expand Hydra's influence. This layout not only ensured Pierce's own safety, but also promoted Hydra's infiltration and expansion within SHIELD, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

However, Pierce's wishful thinking did not go exactly as he expected. When he found Nick Fury's expression was unusually indifferent, Pierce finally realized that he might have been exposed.

"Because you are the best, most ruthless person I have ever met." Pierce's face became expressionless and he looked at Nick Fury and said.

Nick Fury closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then looked behind him.

"Noah, it's up to you." After saying that, Nick Fury walked a few steps to the side and gave his seat to Noah.

"Okay, after waiting for so long, it's finally my turn." Noah jumped up from his chair and walked in front of Pierce.

The others in the interrogation room, including Nick Fury, turned to Noah to see what he was going to do to Pierce. Although Nick Fury knew that Noah would control Pierce next, he had never seen how Noah used this ability to control others. Therefore, he also wanted to take this opportunity to observe Noah's methods so that he could effectively prevent and plan against this terrifying ability in the future.

Noah had already taken the Mind Stone out of the lab and it was now in his pocket. After using it several times, Noah found that he no longer needed to hold the Mind Stone in his hand to use its power.

Noah raised his palm to his chest, with his palm facing upwards, and then, in the horrified eyes of Pierce and the curious eyes of others, yellow energy emerged in Noah's hand.

A yellow light visible to the naked eye shone on Pierce's face.

"Don't worry, you won't feel anything." Noah smiled, and then yellow energy surged from his hands, forming three beams of light that poured into Pierce's eye sockets and mouth.

The scene looked like three yellow snake-like creatures had drilled directly into Pierce's eyes and mouth, making the people around him shudder.

A second later, Noah withdrew his hand. The power of the Mind Gem had entered Pierce's body and soul, completely controlling him, although there seemed to be no change on the outside.

Just when others were also confused, Pierce opened his eyes. People with strong observation skills, like Hawkeye and Rogers, found that the color of Pierce's pupils had changed from the original light blue to a deeper blue.

This subtle change is difficult to detect without careful observation, although neither of them knows what this change means.

After Noah released the power of the Mind Gem, he reached out and tapped the handcuffs on Pierce's wrists a few times to open them, then released a magical power to open the shackles on his ankles.

"Watt?" Seeing Noah's actions, everyone was puzzled, and several agents began to act cautiously to prevent Pierce from doing anything dangerous.

"Don't worry, nothing happened, stand up." Noah waved his hand and said, then gave an instruction to Pierce in front of him, just like ordering the animal trainers in the circus to treat their animals.

Then, Pierce stood up and faced Noah. He had no expression on his face, just like a puppet.

Noah's control over Pierce was just like his previous control over the Hydra, depriving the other party of his autonomous consciousness and turning him into a puppet that obeyed his orders.

"Okay, next, he will answer whatever you ask." Noah turned around and looked at everyone.

The other people in the interrogation room also showed shocked expressions after seeing Noah's methods.
