Chapter 1662 Defense Minister Stark

When the sea surface gradually turned from azure blue and indigo to deep purple and pitch black, the stars also threw the last bit of heat to the small island, and the last light made the transparent shield covering the entire small island shimmer slightly. Laura Croft raised the wine bottle and took a sip of the cold beer. The sweet smoke mixed with the smell of fat, sugar and protein was quickly blown away by the sea breeze, leaving only a little smell. She still felt sticky grit on her thighs, back, chest and arms, her body smelled of olive oil and honey, and there was also a slight sweet and bitter smell from some secret herbs, which was similar to the witches' body now. The smell is exactly the same. She curiously licked the ointment on her fingers, the bitter and spicy taste was fleeting on the tip of her tongue, followed by the sweet and a little spicy that slipped into her esophagus.

This is a secret alchemy ointment inherited from the witch family. It can be used as a perfume or an aphrodisiac. It is made by Beunita and Joan of Arc and used every day. She felt that the skin on her back and neck was hot and red, and she could only try to cool down with cold beer. The party would last until dawn in the heated pool of the hilltop villa, where there would be moonlight and carnality, and she knew it would last a long time and exceed the limits of human capacity. The room she lived in wasn't completely soundproof, even with a pillow over her head, so she always fantasized about being part of it.

Only the library is a place of absolute silence.

It's just that she doesn't want to stay there recently, because there seems to be a restricted area deep in the cellar. She was sure that the basement library layout of the house was no different from a regular private library, but she would never be able to read the chained book on the top shelf of "Folklore" with gilt letters on the spine Weird books of the "Apocalypse of Glaaki". Laura has always known that there are dangerous things in the library. Just like Karma Taj's library, all dangerous knowledge is strictly protected. Knowledge that falls into the wrong hands can create horrors far beyond imagination. She has read about the manufacturing process of biological and chemical virus weapons, the technical principles of plasma reactors, and the myths and legends written on linen and papyrus, all of which are extremely dangerous knowledge. After studying in the Oxfordshire Manor and the Karma Taj Library, she now has a certain understanding of the so-called witchcraft, although she still cannot see clearly the history of the so-called "gods walking on the earth" in the past The whole picture, she also learned some so-called truths from the chat.

For example, the so-called Nephilim, the offspring of angels and human females, are actually the products of genetic engineering created by using human beings as the objects of transformation. The Great Flood recorded in the Sumerian civilization was actually an all-round cleansing of the gene pool of the human race, removing mutant genomes polluted by psionic energy. After the last Nephilim Goliath was killed, this polluted gene pool Humans will disappear completely. It’s just that Laura Crawford doesn’t know who used humans for genetic modification in ancient times, and who led the cleansing of the gene pool of the human race, but those who know the truth keep it secret, and turn around to enjoy beer With the barbecue, keep silent on this topic. A breeze blew across the vast sea, and she suddenly felt cold. It made her want to be near that heated pool and barbecue grill, enjoying the warm conversation and delicious food.

Perhaps an evening of indulgence and entertainment won't make a difference.

"The prophecy tells me that the journey to Neptune will be much more dangerous than that of Attilan. I have a hunch that your business trip may be extremely long." Bayonetta slowly tore open the soft and rotten meat with a fork. A piece of meat, which is delivered gracefully in the mouth, with spirits in the stomach.

"I'm prepared, you know, I'm always prepared for any situation."

He replied casually as he smeared honey water on beef sizzling in the oven. It's just that what he said sounds more like perfunctory than explanation to the witch, because it must involve hundreds of related plans, ranging from a small robbery case to a big one between two nuclear-armed countries. trade. Sometimes Beunita would be curious about why he was able to guide and manipulate the situation in certain countries, but when the results were revealed, it seemed a bit ordinary. Some high-ranking Skrulls that have been discovered are replaced by deformed assassins, using seemingly small forces to pry larger boulders, when the power of the Yugoslav Federation is weak (although it has nuclear bombs and supersonic missiles) The most cost-effective means.

"The wave behind the curtain is also gradually subsiding, and supernatural events are unlikely to occur." Bayonetta licked her lips. She and Joan each ate more than a kilogram of brisket, and even so, they were still able to stuff their stomachs. Although the cold storage of this island residence is not as rich as that of the Oxfordshire manor, fortunately, the existence of the permanent portal solves most of the supply problems. In addition, the witch and the emperor transform the ingested "life force" into spiritual power Rather than the habit of actively absorbing energy from the outer dimension, no amount of food can satisfy their appetite. "In fact, you can leave all the work to your regent. After all, your role is equivalent to a nuclear weapon. It is enough to show your presence once in a while. Is it necessary to participate in the action of recycling the products of the Tianma project?"

"The beings behind the veil have eternal time, they can keep making mistakes, and we only have one chance."

"You had a great conversation with Madame Butterfly and Mrs. Styx. Does this violate your principles?" The accusing eyes pierced through the smoke rising from the carbon fire, and turned to the witch who was enjoying the beef ribs, making the latter giggle . "Well, I know that's not your principle. But it's a bit irresponsible for the Supreme Master to throw you such a mess."

"That's a thousand years. The last time you spent five hundred years, you were sleeping in a coffin at the bottom of the lake."

Bayonetta raised her eyebrows with interest. Out of the corner of her eye she caught a glimpse of Lara Croft walking down the long steps lit with warm yellow lights, her face rosy like the afterglow of a sunset, her skin glistening with sweat. Obviously, this is alchemical ointment at work. "Okay, so what did you do?"

"It was nothing more than planting a bomb in the hangar at the command center in Houston."

"I want you to read this document."

"I know about the Tianma Project." Tony Stark waved his hand, rejecting the file bag handed over by the general, "The last time I saw the Tianma Project, the folder was much thicker than this, and the contents inside were not so Much redaction. Clearly, DHS believes that not everyone will see Project Pegasus."

The General handed the portfolio to his assistant, ignoring Tony Stark's taunts. Standing next to the general at this time was the person in charge of security for this operation, a colonel of the Marine Corps, who greeted Colonel Rhodes alone. But Tony Stark focused his attention below—they were located above the command hall, and they could clearly see the screen in front of each technician. The big screen in the hall stage was still broadcasting the satellite Demo footage of the track - Tony Stark sees the signal team where the technicians who had greeted him walked up before, and starts to work.

"I don't know what information S.H.I.E.L.D. has given you, but now I assume that you have permission to know some details of the Pegasus project, such as the New Domain spaceship and its design purpose, so that we can save some time. You should know, Pegasus The plan does not specify the technical principle and manufacturing process of the hyperspace engine. We do not know what technology was used by Dr. Lawson, who led the development of the hyperspace engine, nor why she disappeared. The Tianma project only leaves us with a mystery. "

The general looked serious, and at the same time he asked Tony Stark to listen carefully. A few years ago, Tony Stark would still be flippant, but now he still shows some respect for the establishment and the spokesmen of the establishment. Now the relationship between the Stark Group and the White House is far from being as harmonious as it used to be, and there will no longer be Howard Stark's contacts to help him. "This matter has something to do with Nick Fury and S.H.I.E.L.D." The general said, "Nick Fury was still an intelligence station chief at that time, after which he was promoted with amazing feats, and finally led the The Tianma Project. It’s hard to say whether the real purpose of the man known as the King of Agents is the Tianma Project, or a sub-project of the Tianma Project, we don’t know anything.”

"Are you implying that I know something you don't?"

"This is to remind you, Stark." The general said with a calm face, "We need hyperspace engines and the technology used in hyperspace engines. The Pentagon suspects that the Yugoslav dictator used the technology when he raided the United Nations Headquarters in New York. Hyperspace engine technology. Of course, there may be high-speed engine technology, but we have to crack his aura step by step and pull him down from the altar."

Tony Stark nodded oddly.

"If all you need is me to reverse engineer the hyperdrive, then why am I there now? You know where I live and can drop by next time I deliver meat...don't be so humorless, this Just a joke. I don't understand, there's no apparent connection between my presence and reverse engineering."

"This is important, Stark," said the general. "We need a Secretary of Defense of our own."
