"Even if we include the peripheral personnel, we have less than 100,000 people..."

Merlin shook his head and said:

"Nearly one-fifth of them are Hydras. Oh my god, it's a miracle that we can hold on until now."

"Sir, your statement is not very accurate."

Hill looked at the tablet in her hand and said seriously:

"Not the confirmed people are real Hydras. A large part of the low-level agents think they are serving the will of S.H.E.L.D. They are just blinded...There are only a small group of real Hydras, less than 4,000 people."

"That's scary, Hill."

Merlin leaned against the office chair, his hands folded on his belly, and he said to Hill:

"Once these things are exposed, the entire S.H.E.L.D. will no longer have credibility. It is certainly a self-purification to find the internal elements, but such a large-scale action will inevitably lead to threats for those who are fine."

"Director Fury has made frequent personnel transfers in recent times."

Hill said:

"He is avoiding the impact of this 'liquidation' operation on the entire S.H.E.L.D. The real Hydra elements were mobilized as much as possible in the same location to facilitate the arrest. Also, Director Fury asked me to tell you that you don't need to worry about the pressure from the World Security Council. As long as we can complete the 'liquid' in the shortest time, there will be no more external pressure."

"Okay, then let's start."

Merlin rubbed her forehead and said:

"Don't wait any longer. Arrest all the Hydras who have confirmed their identity, and then review the remaining members who are suspected! No matter how careful this kind of thing is, it will not end successfully... It is better to have a short pain than long pain!"

"Well, OK, I will convey your comments to Director Fury."

Hill nodded, and she said to Merlin again:

"Also, sir, because of the sudden resignation of Agent John Gatler, there is a lack of a strong commander on the European branch. So Director Fury means that he will handle the North American part of the operation, and you will temporarily take over the commander of the European branch until the 'liquidation' operation is completely over."

"OK."

Merlin said expressionlessly:

"Yes, I will go to Paris immediately. In addition, I need to draw several commanders from s.d.o.l.d. to accompany me. The data room of the Ghost Base will provide us with a temporary contact system that can ensure communication security. During the liquidation, all information and instructions will be interacted through this system."

"The long-term confrontation will end."

Merlin stood up, he supported his hands on the table and said to Hill:

"We will pull out the snake that exists in our shadows, growing, and it will also make ourselves feel pain, we will also bleed and even fall into weakness...but this is necessary."

“This is necessary.”
