Infiltrating the Nine-Headed Serpent Mountain
Chapter 672 Infiltrating the Nine-Headed Serpent Mountain
Peter guessed that the one who preserved the Earth 2149 fragments was a Beyonder, but he couldn't be sure which one it was, or what kind of Beyonder it was.
In different settings, the strength of the Beyonder is completely different. In some cases, he may be terrifyingly strong, with few rivals in the entire multiverse. In other cases, he may not even be able to defeat a single Cosmic Cube.
However, considering the immense power this Beyonder has displayed, Peter probably needs to take it seriously. It's quite possible that the opponent isn't just any Beyonder, but a Primal Beyonder.
But... what does this have to do with Peter's current situation?
The Beyonders might be waging a secret war, planning to select people from across the multiverse to participate in their game of make-believe. But a very real problem is that Peter is currently very busy and doesn't have the time.
"Even if I finish my work, I might not go, unless there's a really compelling reason to go..."
Besides, it doesn't necessarily look like an invitation to me. If it were an invitation, why would they send over a dead man's head? It might be an invitation to Deadpool.
As Peter pondered this, he tossed the head of a dead man, completely wrapped in spider silk, to Deadpool: "Someone gave it to you, probably."
"Hey, hey, why did you just throw it at me..."
Putting aside how Deadpool was going to concoct dead heads, Peter led a few people back to the primitive altar. Bob was still standing there, motionless, looking just like a good boy.
Peter then went over to Bob and asked, "What preparations do we need if we're planning to infiltrate Hydra Mountain?"
Bob looked completely innocent: "Huh? What preparations?"
"Passwords, access codes, ciphers—don't tell me Hydra doesn't have any of these things."
Peter frowned and looked at Bob, but after a two-second silence, Bob simply shook his head.
"Well... we really don't need these things... Let me explain. You see, we've been living perfectly well in this crappy place for decades without ever being hacked! Doesn't that mean this place is very safe? Since it's so safe, there's no need for any software-level security measures..."
Bob's words seemed to make some sense. After listening, Peter keenly noticed the point Bob had made and couldn't help but ask, "You said there are no software-level security measures, so conversely, there are hardware-level security measures, right?"
Bob realized in that instant that he'd been incredibly rude, that he'd made a mess of things for himself. After stammering for a moment, he reluctantly pulled out his Hydra pass: "No matter who it is, everyone needs this to enter our base. Otherwise, forget it..."
At this point, Bob seemed to suddenly remember something and unceremoniously started selling out his former teammates: "Although our population here isn't actually that big, our administrative planning is a complete mess. Don't worry, you can totally use that guy's card and easily evade detection. Nobody will notice that you're different!"
In other words, inside the Hydra Mountain base, there's no need to even match the information on these people with the cards; all you need is the card to get in.
For a moment, Peter couldn't believe it was true. He began to suspect that Bob was deliberately setting him up, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that Bob's current behavior was more like a clown than a Hydra soldier.
But other things were what Peter was more concerned about.
"That's not what I want to ask. I want to ask about the defenses of Hydra Mountain. What other detection methods do they have? Can they spot invisible characters, etc..." Actually, it's just one question: whether Peter can sneak in and infiltrate the area, and whether Katie can successfully enter.
As for Deadpool, nobody cared whether he could get in or how he got into Hydra Mountain. He'd just randomly respawn anyway.
However, these questions were beyond Bob's capabilities. He knew absolutely nothing about them and was completely baffled when Peter asked him. Seeing this, Peter could only sigh.
"So we still haven't obtained any information about the other side's detection methods. If we did, we might be able to find a way to circumvent them, but without information, we can only rely on luck..."
Peter sighed helplessly, while Deadpool, having finally appeased the dead man's head, didn't care about such things at all.
Only Katie said, "I might have an idea, but it's not exactly, well, serious."
Just as Peter was about to answer Katie, Qaza approached and asked, "You intend to challenge these terrible beings, your so-called Hydra, our creators?"
After hearing Qaza's words, Peter looked at Qaza and asked, "So, you also think Hydra is problematic?"
Kazar fell silent. As part of the Supreme Evolution's experiment to re-examine human evolution, he, who had always lived on the Savage Continent, had long begun to doubt the divinity of these so-called gods.
Furthermore, he was the first to discover that these so-called gods also bleed and die. He had seen the corpses of these Hydra soldiers and knew that they were not invincible, and that they only treated him as a pet.
Now, a group of outsiders, who seem to possess extraordinary abilities, know the true nature of the gods, and are mortal enemies of them.
This is the best chance to save my people!
“There is a small path that leads directly to the vicinity of Hydra Mountain, but it is still some distance from the main gate. If you plan to go any further, you will definitely encounter a great battle. You need me.”
Qaza knew some ways to get as close as possible to the base's main gate, while Peter held Bob's ID card thoughtfully.
The nanobots quickly coalesced into a new card that looked almost identical to Hydra's identity card, except for the face.
"There was a card on the other Hydra corpse. Give that card to Katie. These other things might be useful as substitutes..."
Peter was referring, of course, to the fake cards he had created using nanobots: "We need to try them out first. If there are no problems, then we can all infiltrate Hydra Mountain."
Peter looked at the makeshift team in front of him and nodded.
"At that time, we will liberate the barbaric continent!"
