Chapter 221: Surprised crowd, Nick is stunned

~6 min read 1,010 words

The leading middle-aged man said the name of the organization very proudly.

Hydra.

However, the reporter was bewildered upon hearing it.

Hydra?

What kind of organization was this?

He had never heard of this name at all.

"This... may I ask what your organization does?"

The reporter asked, "Is it a public welfare organization?"

"Of course not."

The middle-aged man responded with dissatisfaction: "The goal of our Hydra is to rule the world!" "Uh... alright."

The reporter was speechless.

He just thought this middle-aged man was joking.

Or perhaps the middle-aged man was mentally ill.

There was no help for it; he really didn't know about this thing.

In fact, it wasn't just him.

All the reporters present didn't know what Hydra did.

In fact, they hadn't even heard the name Hydra.

Of course, most of the students and parents present didn't know Hydra either.

However, Karl naturally knew.

Hydra, wasn't that a villain organization?

And it was also the main opponent of S.H.I.E.L.D.

After being defeated, many members infiltrated S.H.I.E.L.D.

Including the former director of S.H.I.E.L.D., Alexander Pierce, who was also a member of Hydra.

This former S.H.I.E.L.D. director was even the person with the highest status in Hydra within S.H.I.E.L.D.

Karl knew that this Hydra was quite powerful and even defeated S.H.I.E.L.D. later on.

And Karl had previously learned through mind-reading that there were many Hydra members among the crowd blocking Stark Tower.

They had received orders from Hydra's high-level officials to create chaos here and block Superman.

But what the ultimate goal was, these people didn't know.

Even if Karl knew all their thoughts, he didn't know what the purpose of these people doing this was.

It was estimated that because these people had too low a status, they weren't told the reason when the mission was issued from above.

However.

Although he didn't know the other party's purpose, knowing their identity was enough.

After all, Hydra was not worth mentioning to Karl.

And since Hydra was mentioned.

Then Alexander Pierce must definitely know about these people's mission.

Because this person was the highest-ranking member of the Hydra organization within S.H.I.E.L.D.

Karl decided to go talk to him in a while.

Although he didn't put Hydra in his eyes at all, since the other party came to his door.

Karl also had to go and have a word with them.

Of course, before that.

Karl had to move these people somewhere else.

After all, they were blocking the door of Stark Tower.

Karl was a major shareholder here, after all.

He naturally didn't want Stark Industries to suffer losses.

"Since things have been said, let's change to another place."

Saying this.

Karl used the power of space to take away all hundreds of troublemakers present.

Including the reporters and photographers, it was the same.

The main entrance of Stark Tower was instantly cleared.

The security guards present looked at each other, completely unaware of what had happened.

S.H.I.E.L.D. Headquarters

Nick Fury was sitting at his desk.

On his computer.

What was playing was the scene at Stark Tower.

As a key focus of S.H.I.E.L.D., Superman always had S.H.I.E.L.D. agents specifically searching for information related to him.

As a key subject of interest for S.H.I.E.L.D., Superman has always had S.H.I.E.L.D. agents specifically tasked with gathering information about him.

As early as a few hours ago, when someone posted news about Superman and the Midtown High School students online.

S.H.I.E.L.D. agents were already paying attention to this matter.

And they reported this matter.

Later, because many television reporters were live-interviewing Superman.

Of course, at first they were just surrounding the front of Stark Tower.

But S.H.I.E.L.D. agents were still paying attention.

Including Nick Fury himself, who was also paying attention.

At first, he just had the mentality of a bystander.

He was even a bit gloating.

Because S.H.I.E.L.D. agents had already found out the truth in advance.

According to the information they obtained from going to Midtown High School.

It was indeed those students who bullied their classmates first.

And then Karl made a move.

Moreover, Karl didn't kill anyone.

He just slapped the onlookers.

Only those who did it themselves had their legs broken.

In the eyes of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, this didn't count for anything at all.

Although for a few high school students, breaking a leg or something was indeed a bit too serious.

But the mistakes they made were indeed not small.

In the United States, tens of thousands of students commit suicide every year.

Among them.

The most common reasons were poor relationships with classmates and family problems.

So what Eugene and the others did was actually quite serious.

Therefore, S.H.I.E.L.D. agents felt that although what Karl did was a bit serious, it wasn't too excessive.

In other words, even if what Karl did was very excessive.

What could they do?

The other party was Superman.

I'm afraid there are few people in this world who know more about Superman's power than S.H.I.E.L.D. agents.

Therefore, Nick Fury knew that Karl actually had no fault.

As for the reporters, students, and parents who gathered.

Most of them were probably looking for economic compensation.

After all, besides the identity of Superman, Karl was also a super-rich man.

With such an opportunity to make extra money, they naturally didn't want to miss it.

However, seeing the number of people surrounding Stark Tower.

Nick Fury also felt surprised.

Because this number of people was simply too large.

According to their S.H.I.E.L.D. investigation.

The students present at the time might not have been this many.

And there were many reporters who came.

Not only television stations, but newspapers, magazines, and online media all had them.

And the quantity was also very large.

Under normal circumstances, ordinary people could never find so many reporters.

Seeing that the number of students and reporters was not right, Nick Fury felt that someone might want to stir up trouble.

However, he didn't have the slightest worry, but instead had a bit of gloating.

After all, their S.H.I.E.L.D. relationship with Superman couldn't be called friendly.
