Marvel's Hogwarts Wizard

Chapter 604 The Origin of Hydra (Second Update)

"Long time no see, Coulson!"

Just as Coulson was racking his brains about how to deal with so many Inhumans awakening, a ring of fire appeared out of nowhere in his office.

Then two familiar figures stepped out of the ring of fire.

"Long time no see, Jerry???"

Coulson glanced at Hermione standing on his left, then at Jerry standing on his right, and was completely bewildered.

"Could it be that the stress I've been under lately is causing me to hallucinate?"

He certainly recognized Hermione. For a long time before he knew Jerry's true identity, he had only ever seen this image of Jerry, so logically the one on the left should be Jerry.

But the one on the left is Jerry, and the guy on the right who looks just like Jerry is also Jerry!

"Hermione Granger, my friend, yes, just what you think, I was using her appearance before, this is the real one."

Seeing the confusion in Coulson's eyes, Jerry knew exactly what was going on. After a brief explanation, he got straight to the point:

"Coulson, two of my family members have just been transformed into Inhumans. I think you should know something about that."

Upon hearing Jerry's explanation, Coulson instantly understood that the one on the right was the real Jerry, while the one on the left was merely a reference figure for whom Jerry had used magic to change his appearance.

Like Tony, he wondered why they hadn't found Miss Granger when they were investigating Jerry's true identity back then.

But that's clearly not the focus now; the real issue is that Jerry's two family members also have Inhuman genes.

"I'm dealing with this now. According to our investigation, it was Stephanie, the daughter of Markley whom we arrested earlier, who colluded with all the remaining Hydra branches to cause this incident."

They added Terrigen Crystal powder to the production machines of several internationally renowned brands of milk powder, beverages, and beer, which led to the current situation.

Although we have controlled the sales of those brands, a considerable number of products containing Terrigen crystal powder have still entered the market, and a small portion has even reached some overseas markets.

"Didn't you say last time that you had confiscated all the Terrigen crystals? Where did that Stephanie get her other Terrigen crystals from?"

Jerry asked, somewhat curiously.

He remembered that the Terrigen Crystals on Earth seemed to be mostly in Skye's mother's hands, not in Hydra's Malik family, so Malik's daughter shouldn't have them either.

Upon hearing this, Cole scratched his head somewhat awkwardly:

"Well, to be honest, it's my fault. When S.H.I.E.L.D. was recruiting new members, I let Stephanie's men infiltrate. They not only stole all the Terrigen Crystals, but also the Black Stone Gate."

"Don't you guys at S.H.I.E.L.D. have to pass a lie detector test before you can recruit?"

Jerry looked slightly surprised.

Coulson said with some helplessness:

"Indeed, but those Hydra agents were all brainwashed in advance using special methods. When they joined S.H.I.E.L.D., they didn't even know they were Hydra agents. They were only controlled after being activated with specific words."

In such cases, the lie detector will not be able to detect their problems because they were not lying at that time.

"All right!"

Jerry thought about it for a moment, and realized that Hydra seemed to actually have this technology. Captain America's best friend, Bucky the Winter Soldier, was also controlled by this method.

"You mean, Stephanie also stole the Black Stone Gate?"

Suddenly, Jerry seemed to have thought of something and asked Coulson.

Coulson paused for a moment, then nodded.

"I know what she's going to do."

Jerry had a thoughtful expression on his face.

Upon hearing this, Coulson's eyes lit up. If he could know Stephanie's purpose, he might be able to make arrangements in advance to dismantle and capture Stephanie's group of Hydra remnants.

Seemingly sensing Coulson's thoughts, Jerry didn't hide anything and instead explained:

"I should have told you about the origins of Hydra and the Inhumans before."

Coulson nodded.

Jerry once told him that Hydra was not founded by the Red Skull who opposed Captain America during World War II; he merely borrowed the ideas of previous Hydra members.

The legitimate Hydra organization has existed for thousands of years, with many branches spread across countries around the world, the largest of which is the ancient Malik family.

It was precisely because of this intelligence provided by Jerry that he was able to capture Malik and dismantle the ancient and terrifying organization, Hydra.

The origin of the Inhumans is related to the experiments of the Kree. He was able to be resurrected by using Kree blood. For a time, he also found a complete piece of Terrigen Crystal based on the memories in the Kree blood.

"In fact, there is an inseparable connection between Hydra and the Inhumans, because the Hydra organization was originally a society composed of a group of extreme worshippers of the 'Hive'."

This hive was the first Inhuman created by the Kree, who was also the leader of the ancient Inhuman race. Later, feared by all the ancient Inhumans, the Kree used their technology to banish him to an extremely distant planet.

That black stone door is a technological creation of the ancient superhumans who banished the Hive. Oh, and the Hive has a special ability: it can control all the superhumans through parasitism.

Jerry slowly recounted all the information he knew about Hydra and the Hive to Coulson.

Actually, he thought the Hydra people were quite foolish. They were already spread all over the world and had money and power, yet they insisted on saving an ancestor who was weighing on their heads year after year.

Every so often, they would draw lots to send a sacrifice through the Black Stone Gate.

It's estimated that over thousands of years, it has become their obsession or belief.

After hearing Jerry's explanation, Coulson roughly understood what he meant.

"You mean, Stephanie has already used the Black Stone Gate to reclaim the Hive, and now she's creating so many Inhumans so that the Hive can control them all!"

"I think they have no other reason to produce such a large number of Inhumans."

Jerry shrugged.

If the Hive hadn't been recovered, creating these Inhumans would have served no purpose other than causing some trouble for S.H.I.E.L.D.

It might even eventually increase the number of Inhuman agents in S.H.I.E.L.D., causing S.H.I.E.L.D.'s strength to skyrocket.

"Damn it, we've been tricked! This is their target!"

At that moment, Coulson seemed to suddenly realize something, and his face instantly showed anxiety.

"I just ordered Skye to take the Inhuman squad to bring all the converted Inhumans back here for centralized management. If the Hive comes..."
