Chapter 186 Preparations for the War against Wakanda
For the people of Hydra, no matter how great the benefits are, they are not as good as a hail hydra.
The greater the benefits offered by outsiders, the more greedy Hydra will be. They rarely cooperate with outsiders. They either absorb you into the Hydra organization as a peripheral member, or use various means to control you.
That is, Kahn's methods are too special, and he has too many super soldiers.
The military lost a squad on the battlefield in the Middle East, and then turned around and formed another super soldier squad. Betty Ross was followed by two super soldier bodyguards. Kahn also has an Umbrella military security company under his name. It is said that this military security company only listens to the orders of Betty Ross and Kahn.
No one knows how many super soldiers this military security company has hidden. The confidentiality is very high, and the people inside are difficult to bribe. Their contact with Umbrella mercenaries will be known. This shows that Kahn also has extremely strong intelligence gathering capabilities.
Moreover, Kahn's sudden disappearance in the room also gave Malik an additional label of suspected superpowers. However, after Kahn said the phrase 'hail hydra', Malik was much less vigilant about Kahn.
Malik invited Kahn to another location, and this time he was very sincere.
Hydra really wanted to attack Wakanda, and they had already thought of a plan to raise Wakanda's threat to peace rating.
That is to sacrifice two SHIELD agents above level 5 and a team of US military personnel near Wakanda in succession, just like Hydra wanted to collect the intelligence and territory of the Ten Rings, so it forced the US military to continuously invest troops. The Ten Rings did not want to be exposed and was indeed not suitable for participating in large-scale wars, so after exposing several bases, they withdrew from the Middle East area.
Now that place has been taken over by Hydra, and Malik is ready to use the same method to deal with Wakanda.
It is undeniable that the US military is the strongest force on earth. Any of its actions can be called "legal", which is something that neither Hydra nor S.H.I.E.L.D. can compare to. Moreover, the International Security Council must also accept the supervision of the United States. After all, the majority of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s funding comes from several wealthy powers.
"Kahn, if I had known that you were our friend, we might have cooperated earlier."
Malik put down his knife and fork. The grilled steak today was very much to his taste. It might also be that he had gained a new member, which made him feel good and had a good appetite.
"I guess you must manufacture a large number of new weapons. It is really difficult to support large-scale weapons manufacturing with Osborn's channels. These two companies should meet your requirements and can supplement the steel alloy supply chain of Osborn..Pent Group."
"I am also a hidden force of Hydra. If it is not necessary,"
Kahn pretended to be Oscar-possessed when pretending to be Hydra. Malik really regarded Kahn as an old member of the organization. Then he took the file from Malik and asked Red Queen to transfer the two companies while checking.
The scale is indeed not small, and they have their own mineral resources in several mining countries. Red Queen didn't find any explosives, unless they hid very deeply; but in just a few days, even Hydra would find it difficult to cover up so that even Red Queen couldn't find the news.
"These two companies are very good, but if they are just exchanged for some super soldier serum, the value is a bit excessive. Mr. Malik, what else do you want?"
Kahn said to Malik. He didn't believe that Malik was so generous to a member he just met, so it was better to talk things out.
"The follow-up development data of the Extremis virus serum, and new energy weapons. Kahn, I know that there are follow-up development plans for the Extremis virus, and I want to exchange these two companies with you for this." The
developers and researchers of the Extremis virus serum are all in Kahn's biological research center, and the serum formula is kept very secret. Other forces still don't know it. After
listening to Malik's words, Kahn frowned slightly and put down his knife and fork, then said: "Mr. Malik, the Extremis virus serum is the core product of my biopharmaceutical company. It is now valued at nearly 100 billion. If the Extremis virus serum is leaked out..."
"We will never reveal any of it to the civilian market. In fact, we are preparing to cultivate our own super soldiers. If so, we will have more power to deal with Wakanda. Otherwise, if we only rely on the U.S. military, neither you nor us will be able to get anything."
Malik also knew that his request was a bit excessive, and then continued to increase the stakes: "If you think it's not enough, I can give more here."
Hydra's power is not small, but it lacks a superhuman action force of its own. A super soldier can completely determine the success or failure of a mission; a team of super soldiers can affect a local war.
If they had not informed the Ten Rings in advance and ambushed them in advance, the military's super soldier team would not have been so easily wiped out.
After a long discussion, Malik and Kahn reached a consensus; they paid a group ranked 13th in the mining industry in exchange for the detailed formula of the Extremis virus serum and the data for subsequent development.
Kahn didn't expect that Malik could still give him such a large group, but after hearing that he had to wait for two months, he understood that Hydra was going to use some tricks.
In terms of value, the three companies that Malik paid were twice the value of the Extremis virus, but the space for the development of the Extremis virus was too large. With enough time, the recovery potion alone could occupy half of the pharmaceutical field.
If Kahn was a little shameless and learned from Tony Stark in another universe and turned the Extremis virus into a monthly fee, he could monopolize the lives of the entire world.
After the deal was settled, Kahn was ready to return to New York. This time he did not use the Apparition to go back directly. Because last time, the assistant knew he was in Los Angeles, so he drove his private plane over and waited for him at the airport.
When Kahn arrived at the airport, Sharon Nia had been waiting for him at the door of the plane for a long time; the blue-eyed and blonde female assistant was not very beautiful, but her temperament was very outstanding.
"Ms. Nia, if I wanted to take a plane, I would tell you in advance, and you don't have to drive Betty's plane to pick me up. Isn't it redecorated here?"
After Kahn went in, he found that it was a standard business class for some successful people, and he immediately felt that he might as well use the Apparition to go back.
Sharon Nia lowered her head slightly and replied, "Because Ms. Ross and Ms. Jones didn't have too many requirements for the interior of the plane, and they had to use it immediately, so they delayed it."
"Order two more, just let Betty pay for it, and let them design it well, don't make it look like a conference room..."
After casually instructing this matter, Kahn asked the Red Queen to contact Laura and told her that the Pent Group was about to take over two steel alloy companies, and both were companies with good market value and healthy financials.
There is also a mining company that will be incorporated into the Pent Group, but it will take at least three months to be conservative.
After hearing the news, Laura was so excited that she almost wet her tears; she spent a lot of effort to double the assets of the Pent Group, most of which was due to the biopharmaceutical company, but Kahn casually gained two companies in the steel alloy industry.
Laura likes to manage huge assets the most, which makes her very excited, and Kahn Pent gave her the opportunity.
After ending the call with Laura, Kahn made a video call with Betty.
He wanted to sell weapons to the military to increase their armament strength and ambition, so that the military would not be timid when facing Wakanda; but Kahn himself really didn't want to meet the old man Ross alone, so he needed Betty to accompany him.
Betty would talk about trivial matters such as military orders, and Kahn would tell Ross some confidential things.
What good can the Middle East war do?
A barrel of oil costs dozens of dollars, a gram of vibranium costs tens of thousands of dollars, and Wakanda has vibranium veins and many advanced technologies. Even children know how to choose.
After a while, Sharonia came over and asked in a slightly formal tone: "Mr. Pent, do you need something to drink?"
"No need to take special care of me. By the way, Ms. Nia, help me collect some good wine collections, some collectors or auctions, if there are any, buy them."
Kahn suddenly thought that when he returned to the ninja world, the cabinet of wine collection would probably be ruined by Tsunade.
"By the way, find yourself a good makeup artist. You should look good with makeup, but forget it without makeup."
After hearing this, Sharonia took a slight breath, and then responded with a slow smile: "I understand, Mr. Pent."
After arriving in New York, Kahn's driver was waiting for him at the airport early. Sharon did a good job in this regard and was very thoughtful along the way.
However, Sharon did not leave with Kahn because she did not have the authority to go to Kahn's Brooklyn coastal estate.
After leaving the private plane, Sharon got into her own car and quickly left the airport. On the way, her face became cold, and then she quickly recorded the information she had collected: "Unknown power, suspected to have completed a secret acquisition with Berlik Mining and New Delhi Metallurgy, does not like business decoration, and likes sweets."
Sharon Carter recorded all the information she had collected about Kahn along the way. After hesitating for a while, she still filled in the last part: "Suspected to like Sharon Nia after makeup, but rarely looks at the stewardess on the plane."
Looking at the recorded information, Sharon Carter only felt that the time they spent together was too short, but with these and the video materials uploaded back, a lot of useful information should be analyzed.
With that information, Sharon Carter is confident that she can explore more intelligence.
It is related to the super soldier serum. Kahn Pent is already a level 7 top-secret file in SHIELD.
