Chapter 910: When False Turns Real, Real Also Turns False (Last Part)_1

In New Mexico, one of the few relatively intact S.H.I.E.L.D bases, Shiller was holding a notepad with documents, saying to Natasha, "You should already be quite familiar with S.H.I.E.L.D's reimbursement policy, right?"

Natasha was also flipping through a report, she said, "Don't worry, however, Barton is new to this, his numbers are a bit conservative, I'll correct them later, and you can see if there are any issues..."

"This time, Hydra's nationwide raid on S.H.I.E.L.D's warehouses has caused us a significant loss. S.H.I.E.L.D has paid a high price to fight Hydra. Although we're willing to continue selflessly contributing, we have to fight for our rights in the Congress for sustainable development..."

Natasha nodded, but then her phone rang, she picked it up and said, "What did you say? The Captain applied for base access permission?... What is he here for? He can't help with inventorying the losses..."

"Agent Carter, you should know, S.H.I.E.L.D does not allow office relationships. Even if you admire Captain America, you can't apply for base access permission for him privately, that's against the rules. If the Director finds out, he's going to berate you again..."

"Alright, for Peggy Carter's sake, just this one time... okay, I gave him the access, what is he going to do?"

Natasha hung up the phone, somewhat puzzled she asked Shiller, "Steve suddenly applied for access to this base, he seems to be looking for someone, do you know what's going on? Doctor?"

Shiller was taken aback, then he said, "Ah, that matter, have you forgotten?"

Natasha also paused then her face lit up in realization.

After a while, Captain America appeared in front of Shiller, he said anxiously to Shiller, "Doctor, I need to talk to you, what I am going to say next, may be shocking, but please listen to me, it's really very important..."

With a deep breath, he looked at Shiller, gripping his shield tightly, but quickly relaxed his arm muscles and put down his shield, he said, "I am not Captain America, allow me to reintroduce myself, I am Barack, a Skrull."

As he uttered this sentence, Captain America's face slowly changed, his skin gradually turning green, some patterns appearing on the muscles of his jaw and chin, his ears slowly lengthening, morphing into the appearance of a Skrull.

However, the surprised look on Shiller's face that he had expected did not appear. Shiller just chuckled and said, "Welcome back, Captain Barack."

With that, Shiller's own face began to change gradually, green pigment climbing up on his skin, patterns slowly stretching out.

With his eyes wide open in shock, Barack looked at the woman beside Shiller, who was also slowly transforming into a Skrull.

In disbelief, Barack shouted,

"Talos??!!!"

Then, Barack froze, and then said, "Wait, if you're Mannell, then who is the one going to get Gana..."

Within the laboratory of the Stark Building, Shiller walked in. Seeing him come in, Nick turned his attention to the Iron Man impersonator and said,

"I don't want to resort to these means, but if you insist on not completing the mission, I think I need to use another method to make sure that you fulfill your duties."

The counterfeit Iron Man took two steps back, he said, "Gana, you want to use those ridiculous weapons in your hands to fight against me? Don't forget, I am Iron Man now... Battlesuit!!!"

As he shouted out loud, the Iron Armor instantly flew in, attaching itself onto him. He rose into the air, looking down at Gana, his arm glowing, evidently, he was charging his hand cannon.

Nick sneered, looked towards Shiller and then said, "I am the S.H.I.E.L.D Director, and clearly, Tony Stark has been taken over by some evil forces, Doctor Shiller can you please check to make sure he's lucid..."

Shiller nodded, reaching into his pocket. As he squinted, the Iron Man impersonator in mid-air suddenly froze.

About half a minute later, he slowly landed, standing still. Shiller turned to Nick and said, "Alright, Director, Iron Man still has a strong sense of responsibility and is willing to contribute everything to our cause."

"Good job." Nick commended. He walked up to the counterfeit Iron Man, turned back and said to Shiller, "You are the outstanding talent that a great cause needs. And them... If they weren't a bit useful, I would have thrown these wastes into the sun!"

Then, looking at the counterfeit Iron Man's armor, Nick gave a mocking look. He turned to Shiller and said, "Let him open his armor."

Shiller nodded, and after a few seconds, the counterfeit Iron Man stepped out of the battlesuit, and stood dumbfounded at the spot. Meanwhile, Nick displayed a nasty grin. He said, "Those who disobey my commands must pay the price."

Having said that, he drew out a portable army knife and placed it into the hand of the counterfeit Iron Man. He turned to Shiller and said, "Do you know how he just defied me? He actually said he couldn't do the job and didn't want to continue futile work for my crazy ideas."
