Chapter 87 Obadiah: I am not willing to give in!!
Times Square, under the Daily Bugle building.
Wearing a dark blue military uniform, Colonel Rhodes, whose face was dark and shiny under the reflection of the searchlight, was deploying personnel.
The military's special teams have replaced the Stark Foundation staff responsible for transporting the gold bricks.
"Let everyone seize the time and speed up the deployment of safety facilities while placing gold bricks."
"Valon is a lunatic. We cannot expect him to release the hostages. We have to prepare for the worst. The data team has calculated Tony's possible landing point and ensures Tony's safety first!"
Rhodes was so angry that he felt like he was going crazy.
This was forced by the higher-ups, Tony, and even more so, Valon.
He kidnapped Tony Stark and made a gesture of threatening to break up the fight at any time.
As long as Valon has some self-awareness, he should know what things should be done and what things should never be touched.
Such a careless guy is really crazy.
The military will never allow such a person to live, he is dead!
"Have you found the sniper point?"
Rhodes held down the earphone and listened to the answer.
"The snipers are in position."
…
Several helicopters surrounded the rooftop of the newspaper building, and searchlights turned the night into day.
"Wallon!"
"The ransom you requested has arrived!"
"As agreed, you must release the hostages!"
George Stacy was holding a loudspeaker and was having "fierce" negotiations with Vallone.
His attitude was always very fierce, his face was red and his neck was thick, and he was spitting and yelling, but Valon ignored him the whole time, as if he didn't hear him.
This really makes old George very embarrassed!
"Damn it, if we wait until the military takes action, it will be too late!"
George is very anxious now.
The military has begun deploying rescue operations, and the New York Police Department is running out of time.
In order to kidnap Tony, Valon hired a group of mercenaries who paid for their lives. These lunatics now occupy the Daily Bugle building.
Although George screamed fiercely before, old George himself also knew that with the strength of the New York Police Department, it was unrealistic to attack and save people.
But the New York Police Department can't do it, which doesn't mean that the military can't do it. The special operations team is so ruthless that it's no problem to fight a bunch of mercenaries.
The only thing the military is worried about is Tony in Vallon's hands. Once a force attack is carried out, the playboy may be accidentally injured, which is unacceptable to the military.
The military now took advantage of the opportunity to transport gold bricks and began to arrange safety facilities below Tony.
Once the security facilities are ready, the military will probably launch a strong attack, using the strategy of killing the main criminal first and then rescuing others.
As for whether Obadiah lives or dies, it has nothing to do with the military.
Obviously, the military only sees Tony, the genius inventor and master of weapons manufacturing.
but!
Obadiah's life and death are important to the New York Police Department.
Tonight's live broadcast of the century put the New York Police Department on the forefront and was "bombarded" by various media. If Obadiah died here, I'm afraid the New York Police Department would be finished.
And this incident will be a stain on George Stacey's life, which old George will never accept.
But now it's unrealistic for him to go down and talk to the military. People in the military won't pay attention to him at all.
I have a headache!
Old George was so anxious that he was sweating, but there was nothing he could do.
"How is the evacuation of Times Square going?"
"this……"
The deputy next to George looked embarrassed.
"The effect is not ideal, and two streets away from Times Square, a large number of Tony supporters and Walloon supporters are coming."
"It is expected that after the two sides meet, a conflict is likely to break out!"
Originally, there were enough people in Times Square. In addition to the media reporters carrying long guns and short guns, there were many more people watching the excitement.
If you add the fanatical fans of these two bastards on the rooftop, it will really be a mess!
"Hiss~"
Old George felt his head hurt even more.
…
"Hey, boss, there's good news. Your gold bricks have arrived."
As soon as Valon answered the phone, Mary's excited voice came out.
"But here's the bad news. The group of people carrying the gold bricks don't look like employees of Stark Industries, but more like a military combat team."
Mary pouted.
She knew that none of these rich people would be obedient and pay the ransom."
Those disobedient guys in the past were all killed by her, but I don’t know what happened to the playboy this time.
"oh?"
Valon raised his eyebrows and looked at Tony in front of him.
"Tony, did you hear that?"
"The military is here to rescue you, are you happy?"
"snort!"
Tony said nothing with a cold face.
He knew in his heart that Rhodes must be here!
Now, no matter how crazy Walon is, he should recognize the reality.
He has nowhere to run!
Unless there is a chance of survival if we let him go, it will only be a dead end!
…
"They started to arrange rescue equipment downstairs through the process of moving gold bricks."
Mary glanced at the mercenaries beside her. They were checking the equipment around them and cleaning and loading their guns.
Everyone knows that once the military arranges rescue facilities, it will immediately begin a strong attack.
By then, a fierce battle is bound to break out.
And these guys licking blood from the tips of their knives were almost going crazy with excitement.
Now the Stark Industries gold brick is downstairs.
You can take as much as you want. As long as this step is completed, you won't have to worry about it for the rest of your life.
They are a group of desperadoes who come here for money. Under such temptation, it is worth risking their lives to give them a try.
"but……"
Mary's tone took on the flavor of schadenfreude.
"They only arranged protection under Tony. Obviously, Obadiah is not important to them."
Time is running out, and every second Tony falls into Vallon's hands, the risk increases by one point.
The military could not wait until two rescue equipments were installed, so it could only secure one as soon as possible and then storm to rescue Tony.
Obadiah and the others really had no time to take care of it.
In this critical moment of life and death, only one of the uncle and nephew can survive!
This is really a big show.
Mary was going crazy with joy, she loved this scene the most.
"this……"
The phone was placed outside, and Valon did not avoid Tony at all. Tony could clearly hear what Mary said on the phone.
Tony's face instantly turned ugly.
He knows Rhodes, or he knows those bastards in the Department of Defense.
They can really do this.
"Hey."
"Fat man, your popularity is quite miserable."
Vallon stuck his head out and shouted to Obadiah, who was floating on the twenty-second floor.
"Ugh, woohoo!"
Obadiah turned pale.
Although he didn't hear the content on the phone, he could still analyze that the current situation was not good for him.
People in the military won't care about him. As long as Tony can be successfully rescued, there is no problem in abandoning him at the critical moment.
Even if the military launches a forceful attack, he will be dead. This is an inevitable result.
Why!
I worked hard for Stark Industries until my hair turned gray from exhaustion, and in the end, I had to be the backer of this damn guy Tony!
He doesn't want to die here, he wants revenge, revenge against the Black Hand organization, and revenge against Tony Stark!
He is not willing to give in!
Obadiah's eyes were red, hanging high in the sky, struggling crazily...
But at this moment, everyone's attention is on Tony, and the only one who really cares about Obadiah is George Sr.
I ask for favorites and votes every day, thank you all!
