After locking onto the target, Luke wasn't in a hurry.
The Mexican Harvest Plan had already proved that as long as he caught the other party's weakness, the more preparations he made, the greater the harvest.
Catching Clairvoyant Garrett was nothing. Only by keeping an eye on Garrett and digging out all the Hydra members related to him could he maximize his value.
It would be even more perfect if this Garrett had more contacts and could contact the other "heads" of Hydra.
But it wasn't easy for Luke to investigate this himself.
SHIELD's internal security system was still very tight. It was impossible for him to get a list of the members Garrett interacted with on a daily basis.
But someone could.
Luke sent Phil a message.
Half an hour later, they met again.
A man walked out of a dark alley, opened the car door, and got into the passenger seat. He looked at Phil and nodded. "This second model is more pleasing to the eye."
Phil immediately confirmed that it was Big Dipper.
Apart from Big Dipper, nobody else knew that this face was the second model of the new mask.
Phil started the car and asked, "What's the major discovery you mentioned?"
Luke said, "Let me tell you my conditions first."
Phil said, "No problem. Go ahead."
Luke said, "I have to be involved in the cleanup operation. Hm, for example, you can temporarily assign me a SHIELD agent."
Phil said, "Well …"
Luke waved his hand. "Ask Nick Fury. There's no rush to answer me."
Phil said, "Okay."
Luke said, "I'll tell you the news first in case you give yourself away. John Garrett, have you heard of this name? "
Phil's hand shook, and the car shook. "Who is it?"
Luke said, "John Garrett. Secondly, there's a younger man with him called Grant Ward. There should be a problem too. "
Phil took a deep breath and didn't say anything for a moment.
John Garrett, a level-seven SHIELD agent. He was older than Phil and had more credits than him.
This meant that the number of people who were involved with Garrett was terrifying.
Take Phil, a newly promoted level-6 agent, for example. More than fifty SHIELD agents had worked under him, and more than three hundred other staff members had worked with him. His old boss was Nick Fury.
If Phil was the suspect, then these people, including Nick Fury, would be included in the investigation.
Garrett was older and had more credits, so there were more than two hundred agents in S.H.I.E.L.D. who were related to him, and there were at least eight hundred staff members.
What was worse was that Garrett's old superior was … Alexander Pierce.
This was the former Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. and now one of the five directors of the World Security Council.
Nick Fury was able to become the director because of Pierce's strong support.
From this point of view, even if Phil was a Hydra, it would be much less dangerous than Garrett being a Hydra.
If not for the fact that Phil had always been steady and had recently "died" once, he would have been scratching his head crazily.
He did not suspect that Big Dipper had given him false information.
Big Dipper had told him this information so that Nick Fury could verify it himself.
This wasn't a TV series. Phil and Nick Fury would be stupid enough to arrest Garrett immediately if they said someone was a spy.
But if Garrett was Hydra, then the problem was too big.
As for Grant Ward, Phil also had a deep impression of him.
This young man was outstanding, calm, and bold. He was the new generation of agents in S.H.I.E.L.D. that Phil was most optimistic about.
As long as Ward was given ten years, he could become a level 7 agent.
But now … there was nothing to look forward to! Ward had been brought into the agency by Garrett, and they would even go on a long vacation together.
The relationship between the two of them was deeper than that of an ordinary teacher and student.
If Garrett was a Hydra, would Ward still be able to remain "clean"?
What was worse was that there weren't just a few S.H.I.E.L.D. agents like Ward who had been brought into the agency by Garrett.
Luke gave Phil a few minutes before he continued, "Lamarr is under Garrett's control. He implanted a" clairvoyant system "in Lamarr's eyes to keep an eye on these people at all times. He can also issue orders at any time, or cook their brains. He calls himself a clairvoyant to his subordinates who are under his control. You can keep an eye out for that. "
Phil's mind was in a mess, but he still remembered it.
But Luke wasn't done yet. "The mechanical prosthesis that Lamarr uses is probably related to Roxon Corporation. You can check if Garrett is working with this company."
Phil finally stepped on the brakes and put his hand to his forehead. "Is there any more bad news?"
His head felt like it was going to explode at the mention of Roxon's name.
According to Luke, Garrett had a lot of familiar subordinates and friends in S.H.I.E.L.D. He could also use the clairvoyant system to control the "men of sacrifice."
Not only did he have the Mexican Cartel to earn a billion dollars a year, he also had a partnership with a super capital group like Roxon.
He could single-handedly match the strength of a S.H.I.E.L.D. branch.
Luke chuckled. "I don't have any bad news, but I do have a bad theory. Do you want to hear it?"
Phil said, "Go ahead."
Although he really didn't want to hear it, it was necessary.
Luke said, "Hydra's slogan: cut off one head and grow two. You're familiar with that, right? "
Phil hummed in acknowledgment.
Luke said, "If S.H.I.E.L.D. cut off one of its heads before, and we only just discovered Garrett's head …"
Phil: "…"
As soon as Luke said that, Phil had a rough idea.
If Garrett, who had worked for S.H.I.E.L.D. for more than a decade, was a Hydra, then there wouldn't be just one "head" in the agency.
Without the ability to expand like a virus, how could Hydra dare to claim that it would "grow two heads"?
This proved once again that S.H.I.E.L.D. had a huge problem — at least, much bigger than Nick Fury and Phil had expected.
There were only three levels in the ten-level system for S.H.I.E.L.D. agents.
The first level was the first, second, and third level newcomers and peripheral personnel.
The second level was the fourth, fifth, and sixth level, and they were the core personnel (including research, logistics, and field personnel).
The third level, seventh level, was a "lord" among the agents. They had the power to form their own team and be responsible for a certain area, such as managing a branch.
The remaining eighth and ninth level agents could be counted on one hand in S.H.I.E.L.D. Phil only knew one tenth level agent: Nick Fury himself.
In terms of authority, first to sixth level agents could only look up information within the scope of their work.
Level seven and above, on the other hand, could look up information on most non-confidential projects.
This also meant that about 50% of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s information was public to Garrett.
If half of an agent organization's background was known, it was equivalent to putting their lives in someone else's hands.
Looking at Phil's gloomy face, Luke didn't feel anything. He even wanted to laugh.
After all, Phil's biggest headache was his experience pack!
If he didn't explain the situation now, it wouldn't be fun for Nick Fury to still fantasize about dealing with Hydra on his own.
Luke's bottom line was to take at least half of the total experience from S.H.I.E.L.D.'s dungeon!
He had saved Phil twice, given him information, and dug out Garrett, so he had to get his "reward."
