Chapter: 203

Originally, if everything had gone smoothly, the mission team of six people would have arrived at the Airport in New Mexico in just one day's journey. However, due to obstruction from various forces along the way, the Hydra team spent nearly three days to complete this arduous journey.

At this moment, out of the originally six-member team, only three remained, and one of them was Grant Ward, who was still fully equipped. However, his current state was extremely disheveled.

Greasy hair and a scruffy beard aside, the incredible suit he was wearing had also become tattered, making him look like a beggar.

But Ward didn't despise this suit because of its appearance. From how worn out the incredible suit was, one could tell how dangerous the attacks he had faced along the way were.

Besides the incredible suit, the agent suit, energy shielding field, and artificial White eye , all the high-tech equipment they had brought for this mission had basically been rendered useless. It was only with these remaining three people that they finally reached their destination.

Inside the airport, Hydra's dark web had already arranged a transport plane for them. Now, all they needed to do was hand over the items to the other party, and their mission would be mostly complete.

The reason it was only "mostly complete" was that Ward still had one final task to accomplish after completing the transfer. That was to have the last two members of their team also "sacrifice heroically" on the soil of New Mexico.

In order to keep the information about the satellite weapons as confidential as possible, Hydra preferred fewer people to know. Those two team members, serving as expendable pawns on the periphery of Hydra, could be sacrificed at any time for the sake of their grand cause.

Ward wouldn't feel any sadness or unworthiness for them just because they had completed a difficult mission together and shared life and death.

From the moment they joined Hydra, everyone should have been prepared to sacrifice themselves and dedicate everything to the organization. Since the organization now required them to give up their lives, they should embrace a glorious martyrdom.

But deep down, Ward also felt a trace of melancholy. Would there come a day when he, too, would be abandoned like this by the organization to which he had remained loyal and dedicated?

Ward didn't dare to dwell on such thoughts. He was afraid that if he continued down that path, he would lose himself. "I just have to believe in Garrett. He raised me and nurtured me since I was young. He won't abandon me." Ward consoled himself in this way.

Presenting their credentials to the airport staff, Ward and his two companions drove the entire truck directly onto the airport tarmac. The transport plane that was there to receive them was already parked. It was a stealth aircraft developed by Hydra, equipped with reflective panels that provided the same stealth capabilities as an aircraft carrier in the sky. As a core member of Hydra, Ward immediately recognized it.

Arriving next to the transport plane, Ward got out of the car and walked towards his waiting companion by the cabin. He said, "We'll rely on you from here on. Hail Hydra!"

However, in response to Ward's Hydra slogan, the "companion" across from him showed no reaction. Ward tentatively spoke again, "Hail Hydra?"

This time, the "companion" finally responded, but it wasn't the answer Ward was expecting. The other party said, "For the Ten Rings!"

Hearing this response, alarm bells immediately went off in Ward's mind, and the warning module of his incredible suit reacted first, controlling his body's movements.

Suddenly, Ward lunged toward the ground and rolled multiple times. At the same time, the sound of bullets being fired echoed in his ears, and he could even hear the "swish, swish, swish" as the bullets whizzed past him.

With his quick reflexes and the assistance of the suit, Ward managed to roll past the impostor and quickly stood up, rushing into the cabin of the transport plane.

Bang, bang, bang! At this point, Ward no longer had any other high-tech products on him. The only thing that could assist him was the heavily damaged incredible suit on his body.

Using the remaining equipment to his advantage, Ward rapidly fired his weapon, taking out several enemies ambushed inside the cabin and also killing the two pilots in the cockpit.

Then, as the sound of intense gunfire outside grew louder, Ward realized that the Ten Rings had prepared extensively, and their forces must have been positioned near the transport plane. He decisively closed the cabin door, effectively abandoning his two remaining companions.

It was only then that he noticed several other bodies placed in a corner of the cabin, apart from those he had just killed. It seemed that these individuals were the Hydra agents sent to meet him, but they had all been eliminated by the Ten Rings.

"I never expected that just as we were about to complete the mission, other forces would emerge to disrupt everything!"

The forces that had previously competed with Hydra were government organizations or members under the World Security Council. The struggle for the satellite weapon had only taken place on desolate highways, where there was no population. It was impossible to directly engage in combat at an airport, a place filled with civilians.

Only a terrorist organization like the Ten Rings would disregard all rules and launch an attack in public.

In this situation, it was impossible to complete the mission and bring the satellite weapon back to Hydra's base. In that case, Ward could only take the final step, detonating the bomb in the cargo hold and dispersing the focus of the conflict.

"Neither Hydra nor any other forces will get their hands on these satellite weapon parts."

Sitting inside the transport plane's cabin, Ward started the aircraft and taxied onto the runway. Without any guidance from the control tower, he accelerated and took off into the sky.

"Go to hell along with the weapon parts!" After successfully taking off, Ward pressed the remote control and detonated the pre-planted bomb.

Accompanied by a massive fireball, the "satellite weapon" that countless forces had fought over was reduced to ashes and debris in the inferno.

"Although we can't bring back the physical object, we scanned all the parts in real-time and generated digital models. We'll see if the scientists in the organization can break the myth that Mark Stark's inventions cannot be decrypted..."
