Chapter 147: Precursor to War
"I hope so." The red queen felt the energy source that was spreading from the void, and said hard.
After all, once this energy source leaks out of the void...... All of New York will be buried for it!
At the same time, in the base of S.H.I.E.L.D. located in the suburbs, a large number of personnel are being evacuated, but the laboratory where the Cosmic Cube is located is quiet.
The crowd was stunned, and the agents pointed their guns at the space portal that had just disappeared.
A strange man about the same skin color as Director Fury stood up from the ground, and a gloom flashed across his face.
His eyes were full of vigilance, and that abnormal spatial fluctuation was also the culprit that made Loki embarrassed!
But he didn't know who was doing it! Or the use of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube for long-distance teleportation itself has uncontrollable factors!
Remembering the female voice that sounded in the sky when the Destroyer was wreaking havoc on the earth before, Loki couldn't help but feel terrified.
Loki, who was in a state of slowing down time and space, didn't know, he just thought that the other party had crippled the "invincible" destroyer in an instant! And it was at that time that the Destroyer was not following orders, and was finally smashed with a hammer by his dear brother, Thor!
"Sir, can you put down the short spear in your hand first?"
Only Fury's voice sounded in the large laboratory, and Loki also came back to his senses, feeling the extremely unstable injury in his body, and his face gradually became fierce!
"I mean, you don't need a dress right now?"
Loki's face stiffened, and he was transmitted through the unstable spatial channel, and he was not hurt much because of the divine body, but this ordinary divine domain clothes suffered from blood mold.
There was a grin at the corner of his mouth, only his teeth were snow-white on his long black face, and Fury also scolded in his heart, why are there such black people in the world?
"Buzz~Boom!"
Hawkeye was the first to detect Loki's attack intent, and with a single pounce, he rolled over and pressed Director Fury under him, but the strange blue light destroyed the large steel equipment behind the two of them in an instant!
The agents reacted, pulled the trigger in their hands, and the bullets did not fall, and all of them hit Loki!
Loki's right hand swirled, and the "short spear" was used by him as a spell weapon, and the blue light erupted from the tip and hit the person, causing the opponent to instantly turn into nothingness!
After overpowering Fury from attack, Hawkeye quickly rolled to the side, holding a large-caliber pistol in his hand and shooting at Loki!
Thanks to years of practicing bows and arrows, Hawkeye hit Loki in the face with one shot!
As a result, Loki just skimmed his head, and the power was gone!
Using physical strength combined with the "short spear", in just a few tens of seconds, the agents in the venue were killed and wounded, except for a few people, the rest had no strength to fight again.
Loki flashed to Hawkeye's side, and the top agent was just about to fight back when Loki grabbed his wrist!
The power of the divine body is far from being able to compete with humans like Hawkeye, and Loki didn't even use his strength to suppress Hawkeye!
The wrist was twisted three hundred and sixty degrees, and Hawkeye bent back halfway to alleviate the pain in his wrist, but the hideous face clearly revealed the top agent's resistance to beatings.
Loki looked at Hawkeye and smiled, "You're a man with a heart. β
Hawkeye was still in a daze, and Loki raised the mental scepter in his hand, which Fury called a "short spear", and pointed it on Barton's chest!
The dark blue energy source contains a small amount of "black sand," and this energy quickly invades the nervous system after pouring into Barton's body!
An eerie blue light glows on the neck, gradually climbing to the face, and disappearing completely when the pupils turn pitch black.
The black in the pupils receded, and the eyes became the same color as the energy of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube.
After seeing Barton put the gun in the holster, Loki smiled in surprise and turned around and began to inject this strange energy into the other researchers!
Fury, who was half-crouching on the ground, had an incredulous face, but after seeing all kinds of strangeness, he was stunned for only a second or two before reacting, and while Loki was controlling the others, Fury quickly took the "Cosmic Rubik's Cube" from the instrument and put it into the trait box.
A large amount of energy is dissipated, the instrument is burned, and the heat also spreads to the Rubik's Cube, and Fury is now very glad that he wears a big black glove every time he goes on a mission.
It's not ...... Did it finally come in handy?
"Click~"
The silver suitcase locks itself after being pressed down, and Fury tries not to make a sound, and when he lifts the box, he wants to leave this hellish place!
"Put it down."
In the large empty laboratory, apart from the sound of violent energy fluctuations, there was only a faint reminder from Loki.
Fury turned around, without a hint of expression on his face, and even Loki couldn't guess what he was thinking at this point.
"I still need him." Loki said seriously.
"There's no need to make things like this."
"It is necessary. I've come here for that. β
"My name is Loki, and I'm from Asgard, God's Domain."
"Loki?" Dr. Shavig, who was caring for the injured man next to him, stood up and stared at Loki, "Thor's brother? β
Loki gave him a cold look, but Fury spoke at this time: "There is no grudge between our race, is there?" β
The smile on Loki's face remained unchanged, his eyes swept around from time to time, and he said indifferently: "Boots and ants have no grudges. β
"So...... Are you trying to trample us to death? β
"No, no, no." Loki shook his head repeatedly, "I bring you the gospel and gain liberation from this world. β
"How to get rid of it?" Fury asked.
"Liberation from freedom." Loki affirmed: "Freedom is the biggest lie in the world, when you accept it from your heart......"
Loki suddenly turned around and tapped the Mind Scepter on Dr. Xavig's chest!
Dr. Shavig was as if he had been slightly electrocuted, and after a moment of shaking, his chubby body shook for a moment, and like Barton, his pupils first turned black, and then turned blue.
"You will find peace in your heart."
"You say 'peace,' but I think you're trying to say the opposite."
Barton, who had been standing still and not moving, glanced at the energy source and walked quickly to Loki's side, "Sir, he's just stalling for time. It's about to explode here, and we'll be buried in the rubble dozens of meters down. β
Fury on the other side squinted his eyes slightly, and his tone was indifferent, "Just like those ancient pharaohs." β
"He's right!" Dr. Shavig, who had just picked up the information from the instrument, turned, "The energy mass is getting more and more violent, and that portal has already collapsed the space inward, and there are still two minutes to go before the tipping point. β
"Okay." Loki raised an eyebrow.
Patton raised his pistol very tacitly, and the bullet hit Fury's shoulder instantly!
The power of a large-caliber pistol at close range is beyond the reach of even a top agent like Fury.
The look of pain flashed on his face, and the whole person fell backwards and fell to the ground!
After Loki and his party got the suitcase, they stripped Fury off his black coat and quickly left the scene, leaving only a few broken machines and pieces of corpses left inside the large laboratory.
......
Under the dual pursuit of Fury and Ciel, Ciel is stuck in the rubble, and the helicopter Fury is riding in is blown up by Loki's blue energy!
The prelude to the war began.
Kurumi lay on the chair and said casually: "Your storytelling ability is pretty good~ But why don't you just play me the video?" β
"There's a lot of things in there, and I'm curious, like why did Loki become black?"
The red queen twitched the corners of her mouth, "Maybe he had some indescribable accidents when he passed through the space passage, right?" β
"Really?" Kurumi thought of the passage he had built, and let out a "tsk" without saying a word.
Looking at the virtual screen in mid-air, the energy monitoring reaction appeared on it, and the building that originally belonged to S.H.I.E.L.D. was a thing of the past, and now it was not even a ruin.
After the collapse of time and space and the double crushing of the violent energy mass, the building was sunken under the entire land, forming a huge "meteorite crater!" β
"What is Fury doing now?"
"Several members of the Security Council are in contact."
"Pick up their conversation."
"Yes, master."
"Ah~" A large amount of code flashed from the screen, but unfortunately there was no camera in the small house, and Kurumi couldn't see what kind of scene was inside, so he could only close his eyes and rely on his imagination to paint Fury's extremely calm dead face.
"That's a bit of an overkill, Director. You're trying to wield a power that you can't control. β
The middle-aged man's voice sounded, causing Kurumi to frown, and then Fury fought back from the side: "Mr. Councilor, have you ever been on the battlefield?" Real guns? β
"You mean the kind that can be absolutely controlled?"
Before Fury could answer, another councilor spoke, "Is Asgard going to war with our planet?" β
"It's not Asgard, it's Loki." Fury shook his head.
"Surely he's not the only one, but the other?" The only congresswoman asked, "What about his brother?" β
"According to the intelligence, he is not our enemy, but the distance is too far for us to expect him to help." Fury raised an eyebrow, "It's up to us." β
"So that's why you're working on Phase 2 with all your might?" The male parliamentarian's voice sounded again, "It's just for ......"
Fury seemed to be very uninterested in this one, and without waiting for the other party to finish, he retorted: "The second stage has not yet been completed, and the enemy has already overwhelmed the border, and we need a countermeasure." β
"The Avengers' plans have been discontinued."
"I'm not talking about the Avengers." Fury's expression was indifferent, and he didn't take that sentence to heart at all.
The middle-aged man's voice sounded again, aggressive: "I've seen that list, you have the most elite secret service organization in the world, why do you still put the fate of mankind in the hands of that group of freaks?" β
"Banner and Brooks, in particular, are both uncontrollable factors. You should know how much of an impact Banner can have on the situation if Banner gets out of control, or if Brooks has an accident. And Brooks she...... There are so many secrets that we still don't know how she lifted the strange hammer. β
"The fate of humanity is not in anyone's hands, but we do need an emergency squad. They may be withdrawn and have their own differences, but with the right guidance, they are exactly what we need now. β
"Are you sure? Sentimentality is not going to win the war, Director. β
"Yes, wars are fought by soldiers."
"Also, about Brooks, she used to live at Phil Manor for a while."
"Phil Manor?" The councillor wondered, "That residential area that was infected by the virus?" β
"Yes." Fury nodded, "We suspect that there may have been some changes inside her body, just like the 'survivors' once did. β
The lawmaker was silent, "I read the report, and the woman ended up dead. β
"It's a pity that we still can't break down the genetic aspect, and although she has some strange abilities, she lives in pain every day. Finally ......"
"Let's investigate Brooks carefully, if there is no problem, the power of 'Nightmare' is indeed not to be underestimated."
......
Kurumi waved his hand into the air, and the virtual screen disappeared into the air, aiming at the gradually well-proportioned black meow, "Next, they're going to find those 'freaks' one by one, right?" β
"Master, I have to remind you that you are also one of those 'freaks'."
Kurumi didn't care, and when he looked out the window, he realized that Tony's bag had just landed from the top floor of Stark, and 'Mark' was peeling off from him little by little by the mechanical arm.
"His building, except for the singularity of the shape, is not unacceptable, such as the clean reactor underground, and he is probably the only one who dares to play like this in New York."
"Master, S.H.I.E.L.D. just hacked into the Stark Mansion's systems."
"Can they break in?" Kurumi raised his eyebrows.
"The power went out in Stark Tower just now, and Jarvis's side was delayed by a large amount of junk data attack for a while."
"And then?"
"Now Coulson is in."
"Looks like I want Stark to join the Avengers." Kurumi turned his head, "How about asking Andre to give him a call?" β
"I guess that's a good idea."
......
As the night deepened, Kurumi was battling the crème brûlée on the table, Black Meow staring at the scoop, and Red Queen was in the air quickly scanning the internal information of S.H.I.E.L.D.
"Huh?"
"What's wrong?"
"Master, Coulson has submitted an appointment to visit."
"What time is it?"
"20:08 New York time."
Kurumi blinked and licked off the remaining cream from the corners of his mouth, "Then he's really fast." β
"According to the records, Coulson arrived in a helicopter after taking Miss Potts to the airport."
"Looks like they're in a hurry."
"Yes, the death of the last woman in the 'Survivor' codename before has made them short of high-end combat power in the bureau, and now even K-3652 has been collected and cultivated."
"K-3652?" Kurumi thought of the girl made of Mo Xiao's template, his face couldn't help but turn dark, and his eyes became very "friendly" when he looked at the red queen. β
Seeing that the situation was not good, the red queen hurriedly said: "Master, Coulson has applied 16 times!" β
