Chapter 1756: The appointed time, a threat in disguise
"Other ways? What do you mean by saying there are other ways?"
Strange's answer was like a turn of twists and turns for Nick Fury, so even though he clearly heard the other party's unsure of this statement, he still asked repeatedly as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw...netbsp; Strange was a little unhappy about his attitude. At this moment, he did not want to see these people pin their expectations on him, because once things did not unfold as expected, they could easily blame themselves for their mistakes when they could not accept the reality.
People who could have been out of the matter have to get into trouble for no reason. No one would be happy with this kind of thing. It can be said that if Strange had not had his own ideas and needs, he might have just shook his sleeves. But because he had his own little plan, he could only frown and endure the unhappiness in his heart, and then said to Nick Fury.
"I just said it's not sure. Well, the problem is this. The so-called portal to another world is actually like a thief trying to steal. He secretly opened a window and a door, and naturally he could quietly enter someone else's home. However, if the owner of this home is guarded, he would just seal the doors and windows, which would make us burglars helpless. Our spells are like lock-opening technology for doors and windows. Once the doors and windows are sealed, then our methods will be useless."
"However, just like stealing, there are many ways, not just prying open doors and windows. If you want to enter another world, you won't just have the same method as the portal. Our spells are useless, but they do not mean that other people's spells are useless either. Even those methods that are not magical to shuttle through space may also have miraculous effects on this kind of thing. Therefore, the key question is how to find this special method. At this point, I need time to search and read ancient books."
Strange did raise a possibility, but in the face of this possibility, Nick Fury showed a swaying look on his face. Because Strange put forward a very strict requirement, time. Now, time is what they lack the most.
Every day the crisis will aggravate, and this reality makes time something they can't afford. Therefore, even if Strange provides them with a straw that may save lives, it will be difficult for him to make up his mind immediately.
He has to take risks if he makes such a determination. He is still hesitant in his heart whether to take this risk.
Fortunately, hesitated for not long, or Nick Fury realized that he actually had no other better choice...co After a brief thought, he asked Strange this question.
“How long does it take?”
"It's hard to say, if you have good luck, you may gain something in a few days. If you have bad luck, it may also take weeks or even months."
Strange replied truthfully, but in the face of his reply, Nick Fury shook his head very simply.
"There is not that much time. Judging from the materials we left in that world, they only last for two or three months at most. Once something unexpected happens in the middle, the time will only be shorter. Now three days have passed, and I can give you up to five days. Within five days, I hope you can find the answer we want. Otherwise, we can only accept the worst result!"
Nick Fury did not threaten Strange because he himself knew that the threat had no purpose. In addition, he had something to ask for, so he simply acted honestly.
This posture is actually very rare for him, Nick Fury, because he rarely shows his sincerity. However, Strange didn't know this. He only knew that time was very urgent, so it was almost difficult to gain something.
As a doctor, he was concerned about the life and death of tens of thousands of people, and he did not want to see such hasty decisions. In his opinion, if they really wanted to save these lives, then at least, hard work was an inevitable condition. From Nick Fury, who set time so tightly, he could not see the feeling of hard work. So at the moment, he replied with some dissatisfaction.
"Five days? This time is too short, and I can't guarantee how much you can get. If you really want to save the lives of those soldiers, you must give me more time."
"Of course we want to save them. At this point, you should believe us, doctors. Because this is the interest of the country, and we will not make any jokes on the issue of the country. However, it is precisely because this is the interest of the country that we cannot place all hope on you alone."
"We will make the best preparations and the worst preparations. And if things really reach that irreversible level, we can only make a choice that none of us would like to see. You should understand what I mean, doctor!"
Nick Fury's words made Strange suddenly feel chilled in his bones, because he had already thought about what this guy meant.
The so-called choice is nothing more than doing what is most beneficial to the country in the worst situation...co Judging from the current situation, what is the most beneficial to the country? It is nothing more than concealing everything and writing off the existence of these tens of thousands of people as if they do not exist.
Use time to smooth out losses and silence to deal with fluctuations. If a state machine really wants to do this, then as long as they do not care about the cost and as long as there is no accident, the life and death of a few tens of thousands of people is not something that cannot be concealed.
Of course, they can cover up all this, but the deaths of tens of thousands of people will not become truly gone because of their cover. Just think of the tens of thousands of people's life and death in the foreign land, and the struggle and wailing in the poisonous fire of hell, Strange feels a trembling and anger from the bottom of his heart.
He was still passionate in his heart and could not be indifferent to such a statement, so immediately, he grabbed Nick Fury's collar and questioned him loudly.
"What do you mean? Do you want to let those people die? You cold-blooded executioners! If you really make such a decision, aren't you afraid that those resentful souls will come to you when you sleep late at night?"
"Let him go, take your hand away and put it where we can see!"
Strange's sudden action of course attracted the attention of the agents around him. No matter what, Nick Fury is their boss, and if his boss is threatened in front of him and he is still indifferent, then they would be too dereliction of duty. In order not to let him fall into the trap and be worn by someone, these agents immediately took out their guns and made the move to protect the Lord.
However, this is of no use. Neither Strange nor Nick Fury took their actions seriously. The former did not care about such threats at all, while the latter did not believe that Strange would do anything extreme.
The title of Agent King is not for nothing. Nick Fury, who has this name, is used to seeing the world. He has long reached the point where he has not changed his expression and is full of elk. So even if a dangerous person like Strange makes such a move to him in person, he still says to him without changing his face.
"I can understand what you think now, doctor. But you must be clear that I am an agent, an agent with the highest principle of national interests. For the benefit of this country, I can do anything, no matter how terrible and unacceptable it is to you. But as long as it is beneficial to the country, I will do it."
"Maybe it will be like you said that I will be brought to you by these resentful souls one day. But so what? I have a clear conscience and my loyalty to this country is enough to make me face all this calmly!"
Nick Fury's words left Strange with nothing to say in an instant. Even though he clearly knew what he did was wrong, he could not make any accusation against him in the face of national justice.
Everyone is an adult, so it is impossible for children to argue endlessly about right and wrong like children. There is no right or wrong in the adult world, but only different positions. And from Nick Fury's position, who can say that what he does must be wrong?
At the very least, Strange didn't think so. In other words, although he could not agree with Nick Fury's approach, from the bottom of his heart, he agreed with Nick Fury's concept.
From his perspective, everything he said cannot be called wrong. And there is no difference between right and wrong on this issue.
Of course, we cannot agree. Although we understand the reason why Nick Fury made this choice, as a doctor, he still insisted on his point of view. He just said that he had given up using force to deter Nick Fury's ideas, because it was impossible no matter how he looked at it.
A person who can make such words is obviously not a guy who can change it by simply threatening force. If he wants to give up this terrible idea, the only way is to find a way to solve the problem and turn the overall situation around before things become irreversible.
In other words, the lives of these tens of thousands of people have been pressed on him alone. And such heavy weight naturally makes Strange feel breathless.
To be honest, although he has saved many people, it was under the premise that he was a doctor. Now he has changed his identity and saved such a huge number of lives as a mage or a hero. This is the first time in his life. It is impossible to say that he is not nervous.
But no matter how nervous he was, he didn't have any idea of stolen it. At this point, if he didn't want to have such a tragedy, he could only bite the bullet. So at that moment, he grabbed Nick Fury's palm, and after using his magic to mark his hand in the form of a brand, he said to Nick Fury.
"Five days have been agreed. I will find a way to solve the problem within these five days. Before this, no matter what you have, you must not use the last resort you mentioned. I left the magic mark on you, and after five days, I will naturally find you. And if you violate this agreement, then no matter you run to the ends of the world, I will make you pay the price!"
"Very good, that's all, five days!"
Although he was sweating coldly because of the branding, Nick Fury still gave a positive answer without changing his face.
This tough guy style made Strange affirm again. Nick Fury was not just talking. So he just glanced at Nick Fury deeply and left here without hesitation.
Racing against time, that's certain. Looking at the anxiousness shown by Strange, Nick Fury's face, which was a little pale in pain, finally showed a little smile on his face.
For him, being able to make Strange react like this is already his goal. On this issue, he is not worried that Strange will not do his best. As long as he does his best, there may be a turning point.
Of course, it was just that. Although he had high expectations in this regard, he still had to make the worst preparations. This is also the reason why he took over this matter.
FBI is definitely more skilled in this kind of thing than the military. After all, they are in intelligence and supervision, but in terms of experience, the entire United States, Cia, can compete with them. Cia is the outside world, and I don’t know how many eyes are staring at them outside. So in comparison, FBI is the best candidate to take over.
Stark has issued an order to FBI, which is to try his best to hide the situation. On this issue, he gave Nick Fury considerable authority. With such huge authority, Nick Fury certainly spared no effort.
He wasn't joking with Strange for the previous words. He even said that he had already started this.
For now, this kind of prevention is limited to the quarrel. He ordered those insiders to keep secrets in the name of the country and mobilizes the power of the country to monitor and manage them.
This is just a temporary response. Whether it can be continued. One way to see if they obey orders is to see the change of the situation. If the situation changes are moving in a bad direction and there are some unexpected situations in these people, then he really doesn't mind killing.
Of course, this is a choice that will only be made if it is absolutely necessary. And if there are other possibilities, he is unwilling to make such excessive sacrifices. It depends on Strange's achievements. In this regard, Strange has already been put in hopes by him.
"So, don't let me down!"
This is Nick Fury's heart. At the same time, this is probably the only thing he can do for himself and those who may be sacrificed.
