The days of being a spiritual mentor in Meiman.

Chapter 464
Keira stared at Alfred with wide eyes. She never thought that Alfred was the legendary agent who mastered the list and played tricks on the East Coast intelligence personnel.

"But, from England to Moscow, shouldn't you need to go through the east coast of the United States?" Keira asked with some doubts.

But then, she came to her senses, patted herself on the forehead, and said, "Oh, yes, you can't go straight to Moscow, they will definitely intercept you on the way..."

"However, even if you want to detour, you don't have to go so far, right? From England to the east coast of the United States, and then to the Soviet Union, it's almost a circle around the world..."

"Today, 30 years later, the world is still looking for this list, haven't you discovered how important it really is?"

Hearing Alfred's words, Keira thought about it carefully. Indeed, now it seems that the main function of this list is to smooth out the fault of intelligence work mistakes, but now it is almost 30 years later. The list can no longer even be said to be invalid, and many people recorded on it may have passed away.

But if it was 30 years ago, it is self-evident how important a list of important spies from various countries was recorded at that time.

Alfred took out a piece of buckskin from his pocket and began to wipe the barrel of the shotgun in his hand. He said: "Moscow has given many routes, but without exception, they are all within the sniper range of the CIA. within."

"At that time, the CIA was pervasive. I have to say that the American agents at that time were much stronger than they are now."

"Then why... oh my god, the most dangerous place is the safest place?! So you just headed straight into the US??"

Alfred smiled, as if feeling sorry for Keira's youth, he said: "The most dangerous place is the safest place. This sentence actually has some truth, but it cannot be a decisive factor in an important decision. .”

"In 1961, the CIA's longest-serving director, Allen Dulles, stepped down. He was a very powerful old guy, and the CIA's prestige at home and abroad jumped to its peak."

"However, after 1961, his successor was not as good as he was. One year passed, and the work was almost ineffective. It took him a long time to sort out the work left by the previous director. Even the folks jokingly call him the Lentouqing from the Air Force, of course the Moscow side knows about it.”

"Moreover, during Allen's tenure, the scope of the CIA's functions has been greatly expanded, even replacing some of the functions of Congress. His work has been done so well that the CIA's prestige and reputation have risen too high."

"So, Congress will definitely restrict them, right?" Keira asked, and then she said with some disdain: "This group of Americans is like this, and the internal fighting will never end."

"Yes, they deliberately found an incompetent successor to replace Allen, made a mess of work, and then amended the security bill to further limit the scope of the CIA's functions. In short, the CIA at that time bureau..."

Alfred drew a long note and shook his head, and Kayla understood what he meant.

If according to what Alfred said, the situation at the time was like this, then the mainland of the United States is indeed a very safe place. In order to limit the functions of the CIA, even if Congress knew that there might be spies here, they would not Will allow the CIA to intervene.

What Americans are best at is to create one institution, then create another institution to restrict it, and then create another institution to restrict the two of them, and then name them separation of powers.

Whenever the three institutions beat each other's brains out, they call it a "victory for democracy."

And when more organizations beat their brains out for this reason, they don't care about the drop in efficiency, and the absurd accidents where the left foot trips the right foot, and the left hand blocks the right hand. They only think that their monitoring mechanism is really too successful. up.

"Moreover, Gotham has always been a place outside the law. Although the Falcone family had ruled Gotham at that time, the system of the twelve families had not been fully established. In other words, it was the throes of reform. , There are gangsters everywhere, very suitable for fishing in troubled waters."

"Indeed, this is a very smart method. As long as you lurk in Gotham for a while, and Moscow releases news that the list has reached them, the safety of your return journey will be greatly improved." Keira nodded and said.

"The original plan was indeed like this, but there were some accidents..."

Keira looked at Alfred and asked, "What accident?"

Alfred sighed rarely, as if thinking of something he didn't want to recall, he said: "In Gotham City, there has always been a unique force hidden, they wear masks, hide in the dark, Watching everyone, trying to take over the city."

"They're called the Court of Owls."

"It was a group of lunatics who would do anything for power and status. Just one day in March, when I went to church to pray, I 'accidentally' heard a speech from Falcone, the Godfather of Gotham, and Daniel, the bishop of Gotham Cathedral at the time. dialogue……"

Keira heard Alfred bit the stress on the word "accident", and she understood that Alfred was implying that he had paid attention to these two people and was investigating them, so she heard some information.

"They said that the Owl Court got a magical egg, and it seems that they wanted to put this egg in a special pool under the cathedral..."

"Eggs? Eggs of what?" Keira asked very puzzled.

Alfred took a deep breath and said:
"A monster's egg."

"What is this? A monster's egg?"

At the bottom of the manor, in a wide hall, Lex looked at the thing in the middle of the hall with some doubts and asked.

At this time, all the members of the underground exploration team were in a strange state. Bruce and Lex were surrounded by a wisp of gray mist, and they could see this wisp of gray mist themselves, but they did not raise any objections. Clark, who was pale, was still coughing weakly.

After several people came down from the entrance of the cellar, they found that it was indeed just an ordinary cellar, but soon, things developed beyond their imagination.

In the corridor leading to the cellar, the abnormality is not very obvious. It looks like a bunker built by a nobleman in the Middle Ages. There is no technological content, and there is no abnormal thing. The special minerals that Schiller calls are not Appear.

But after walking through this corridor, Clark felt strange, because he began to feel weak.

At the end of the corridor, Lex and Bruce wanted to dissuade Clark, but Clark insisted on making sure that the mineral would not harm ordinary people, so they continued walking in.

Soon, a bright green light appeared. At this moment, Schiller stopped everyone and said, "Aren't you planning to go directly?"

"I have to remind you that this mineral is also radiative to ordinary people, and this is different from the radiation of any mineral on the earth. Human radiation protection suits may not be useful."

Lex and Bruce looked at each other, and they both saw the same emotion in each other's eyes, that is, they didn't want to take this risk, but they were curious about it.

I have a way to protect you, but..."

Schiller made a long voice, and then suddenly said: "I heard that the Wayne Group and the Luthor Group are the economic lifelines of the Middle East coast and the mainstay of the American economy."

Bruce was a little dazed and didn't know why Schiller suddenly mentioned this, but Lex suddenly understood, and he said kindly:
"A method that can defend against radiation from unknown minerals is worth a fortune. Of course, the Luthor Group is willing to pay some price for this technology. Professor, we can talk about the specific figures later, but we will definitely not let you down..."

Bruce looked at the smile on Schiller, and was a little stunned, then narrowed his eyes again, and he realized something was wrong.

When did Schiller become interested in money? ? ?
Did he take the wrong medicine? ? ? ?

Seeing that Schiller turned his eyes to him again, Bruce didn't even know how to speak for a moment, but soon, he cleared his throat and said, "The price is not important, what matters is how effective is it?"

Schiller waved his hand, and two wisps of gray mist surrounded the two of them. What was visible to the naked eye was that the glowing green light was blocked, and the effect seemed very obvious.

Clark immediately turned his head to Schiller and looked at Schiller expectantly, but Schiller walked straight in as if he didn't see his eyes.

Clark tried to catch up and said, "Oh! Professor, is there some misunderstanding between us?"

"Professor! I think I need some defenses too! Professor..."

"It doesn't work for you." Schiller rejected him indifferently. Clark showed a frustrated expression and could only follow behind a few people.

Walking in, the situation became a little serious. They first entered a hall, where the walls were almost all made of that kind of green stone. No need for any lamps, the light emitted by kryptonite was enough to illuminate A whole hall, it can be seen how huge the number is.

At this point, Clark could hardly walk on his own, and Bruce had to help him, but seeing Schiller's attitude as if nothing happened, Bruce and Lex knew that they had been fooled again.

But until now, the function of this mineral itself is not important, what is important is, who built this place?And what was it built for?

Obviously, the rumors are wrong, because Bruce did not find any experimental equipment here. Whether it is radiation experiments or human radiation experiments, a lot of professional equipment is required, but there is no such equipment here.

After passing through the hall and a corridor, one came to a huge underground cavity. The scene here was shocking.

In the huge underground cavity, most of the walls have not been artificially repaired, they are still ordinary rock formations, and even dripping water, but there are many rammed walls, like wedges that have been chiseled in, from top to bottom distributed throughout the void.

Everywhere there is a wall, there is a very strange device on it. The center of the device is a huge green kryptonite.

At this time, the kryptonite light seemed to be guided by the glass outer wall of the device, forming a solid green light beam. Several beams crossed and concentrated at one point, and at this point, a platform was placed in the air, on which there was a egg.

This egg is very big, and several people need to look up at it. The overall color is gray, but the overall color is gray. There are many rock-like spikes on the surface, and the tips of the spikes are still emitting a blue shimmer.

Just when Lex asked that question in confusion, they heard Schiller's cold voice coming from behind: "Stand back."

Bruce turned his head and looked at Schiller who was standing far away. Seeing Schiller's expression, he knew that Schiller probably knew what it was. He asked, "What kind of egg is this?"

"A monster..."

"What monster?"

"A monster that is so terrifying that even Clark in his prime can't deal with it..."

Schiller's eyes kept falling on the egg, and his low tone echoed in the hollow, and there was a distant echo:

"It's called... Doomsday."
