Chapter 43 Tony Stark Returns

Tony Stark is back! ?
It should be said that this is a big deal.

After hearing the female guard's words, Su Ze's expression gradually became serious. Judging from the current chaotic situation, Stark's return was undoubtedly like throwing a huge rock into the already turbulent lake.

Whether it is S.H.I.E.L.D., the military, or even S.W.O.R.D., the Disaster Control Bureau, and the Extinction Crisis Committee, these agencies are all closely connected with Tony Stark and his forces.

It has been a while since the Shuomie Crisis occurred. During this half month, various forces have muddied the waters and divided up countless resources.

At this time, Tony Stark, who was assumed to be dead by everyone, suddenly returned to Earth. Even Su Ze, who was not very sensitive to politics, felt a sense of solemnity that a storm was about to come.

"When did Mr. Stark come back?" Su Ze asked.

"Last night, I heard that his condition was not good. He should still be recuperating." The female guard spoke lightly and answered in a businesslike tone.

At this time, Rocket on the side spoke up. "Who is Tony Stark?"

"A famous entrepreneur and one of the leaders of cutting-edge technology on Earth. He is the head of the Avengers and a superhero known as 'Iron Man'." Su Ze briefly introduced Tony Stark's identity.

Then Suze looked at the female guard and asked, "Did General Okoye say why those SHIELD people came to Wakanda?"

To be honest, what Su Ze wanted to know more than the news about Tony Stark was why SHIELD suddenly sent someone here without informing him in advance.

You have to know that you are now the only S.H.I.E.L.D. agent assigned to Wakanda. It is reasonable that Ms. Kalina should inform you in advance if there are any personnel transfers in the bureau, or at least let you be prepared for the reception.

But what was strange was that these people suddenly visited, but he did not receive any news, which was obviously inconsistent with the task process that Su Ze knew.

"They didn't say that, but they hope that you two can go to the meeting room as soon as possible." said the female guard.

Upon hearing this, Su Ze looked at Rocket Raccoon.

Rocket still maintained that indifferent attitude, but Su Ze was a little worried. However, he did not say much. In the current situation, he could only guess that the other party's mission was different from his.

Following the female guard to the meeting room, Su Ze was already very familiar with this road. After all, he had walked this road on the first night he arrived in Wakanda.

It was his first time entering Wakanda and attending an Avengers-level meeting, so Suze was deeply impressed.

On the way, Su Ze kept thinking about his experiences during this period. Since the phone call with Ms. Kalina that day, Ms. Kalina has never contacted him again.

He was clearly asked to stay in Wakanda and wait for further instructions, but for more than ten days, no mission was issued, not even some intelligence or instructions.

At one point Suze even thought that Ms. Kalina had forgotten about him.

And now, 'colleagues' from S.H.I.E.L.D. suddenly visited and brought the news of Tony Stark's return. It was obvious that all this was arranged by Ms. Kalina. They probably also brought their own next plan.

Taking the elevator and watched by the female guards, Su Ze and Rocket soon arrived at the conference room.

When the door was opened, there were seven people standing in the conference room, five men and two women, each of them wearing a fine suit, giving people a capable look. Seeing Su Ze and Rocket come in, the leading man walked up to them and extended his hand.

"Kaiya, right? I'm Harris, the Mississippi chief."

"Hello."

Su Ze didn't know him, so the two of them simply shook hands.

Su Ze was still quite nervous at this time. After all, he had only seen a few S.H.I.E.L.D. agents since he came to this world.

The only people who had communicated were Ms. Kalina and Boss, who was flying the plane. However, the communication with Ms. Kalina was all about the mission. There was no much talk about other things. Not to mention Boss, the two of them hardly said a few words.

Although this result avoided exposing his identity, it also made Su Ze unable to understand how the agents of SHIELD usually communicated.

So at this moment, facing the group of colleagues in front of him, Su Ze was still more or less unsure.

Fortunately, the other party took the initiative to tell us their purpose. "I have received the appointment from Ms. Kalina. From now on, my team will be responsible for the relevant matters of Wakanda. I hope you can cooperate with us to complete the handover procedures."

"Okay." Su Ze nodded.

The handover procedures were relatively simple, because Su Ze was only responsible for organizing the documents given to him by Wakanda during this period of time. Since Wakanda had already completed the most difficult tasks, when it was Su Ze's turn, it was basically enough to just take a look at them.

Then, Suze asked again, "Did Ms. Kalina tell me what I should do next?"

The man paused and replied, "Oh, the northern part of the state is basically short of manpower right now. She wants you to go back as soon as possible. I guess the situation in New York is not optimistic."

"New York?" Su Ze was slightly stunned.

"Yes, you were active in New York before." The man looked at Su Ze and continued, "I don't know much about this, but I heard that the gangs there are not very stable."

"I know about this. Isn't there anyone to deal with it?" Su Ze recalled that Ms. Kalina seemed to have mentioned it to him before.

"We sent people there, but it didn't work. We even suffered casualties. There are rumors that there are unregistered people with super powers causing trouble there, but no one can say for sure what exactly happened."

The man sighed, and judging from his expression, the actual situation might be even more serious.

Su Ze frowned slightly. As far as he knew, there shouldn't be any force in New York that could cause trouble to S.H.I.E.L.D. After all, they were just agents. How could they cause such trouble just because they were a few underworld organizations?

But after Su Ze thought about it, he understood.

Today's SHIELD is no longer the government organization it once was. Without the support of the World Security Council, the local bosses in New York would not take SHIELD seriously.

What's more, most of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s senior agents have died or retired, and there are only a few who are still capable among the agents who have not been wiped out. In addition, the Avengers have just suffered a defeat, which has further emboldened those guys.

The New York gangs are not that simple. There are many hidden dangers.
