Chapter 516: Arrows
"Stand-in messenger? Potential? ”
Dominic Butch made the vision that entered the eye of the storm flicker.
He hasn't been with the Avengers for a long time, so he doesn't know much of the information left by S.H.I.E.L.D.
Especially for a lot of information about the SCP Foundation, Vision doesn't know much about it.
Although there is a lack of information, but with some of the information he knows, Vision still has a guess about the ability of [Dominic Butch].
The vision endowed by the Mind Gem not only has powerful spiritual power, but also has great wisdom.
"The power of the so-called stand-in messenger in your mouth should be from the SCP Foundation's containment, right?"
"That's right."
With Vision's questioning, [Dominic Butch] admitted without hesitation.
In the center of the eye of the storm, the stand-in [Weather Forecast] behind the [Dominic Butch] control gathered in front of him, and at the same time said in a calm and calm tone: "[SCP-658 Arrow] was first discovered in a crater in Greenland in 1978, when a team of 11 explorers from the Institute of Mineral Resources came to the crater to investigate mineral resources. Two of them died of unknown causes, and according to the results of the post-mortem examination by the medical team, the deceased died from infection with an outer space virus brought by a meteorite. ”
"At first, the SCP Foundation did not find any anomalies in the crater until 1986, when the Foundation encountered a survivor named Diablo from the investigation team at the time and discovered a mysterious anomalous ability on his body.
According to the account of the contained Diablo, he found three arrows in the remains of the tribe near the crater, and through one of the arrows he gained the ability to be a stand-in, and then sold the other two arrows to someone else for a high price. Based on information provided by Diablo, the SCP Foundation went to the location where the arrow appeared and conducted an investigation, which eventually led to the discovery of a crater in Greenland. ”
"And I learned that at least 50,000 years ago, and in what era after that, about the time when human civilization was not formed, a tribe living near the crater noticed the potential power of meteorites. They found that meteorites within meteorites have the potential to help them get a better living environment. As a result, bows and arrows were made from meteorites, and although it is not known how it turned out at the time, this is probably the origin of the stand-in messenger. ”
"After getting the containment [SCP-658 arrow] in Diablo's hands, the SCP Foundation immediately launched containment and research on it, and finally succeeded in containing two arrows, and according to the research, the root of the stand-in ability is actually from the combination of the space virus on the containment arrow and the human spiritual power, and the person who was shot by the arrow is very likely to be infected with a deadly virus and died, and only a few spiritually strong people will awaken the ability of the stand-in under the effect of the virus."
"A containment that awakens to supernatural powers."
From Dominic Butch's description, Vision clearly understood the horror of this SCP-658 arrow.
As long as you are shot by an arrow, you may awaken the ability of the stand-in.
If the SCP Foundation uses this characteristic of [SCP-658 Arrow] to create stand-ins on a large scale, even if the awakened abilities of these stand-ins are not as powerful as those of [Dominic Butch], the gathering of many transcendents is definitely a terrifying existence.
Fortunately, the method of [SCP-658 Arrow] to create a stand-in messenger is not simple, and there are certain requirements, and according to the information from the Avengers from Vision, the Foundation also has quite strict requirements for the use of containment.
If SCP-658 Arrow were to fall into the hands of another ambitious person, Vision Speculation could be an even more terrifying outcome.
Dominic Butch's information about the stand-in made Vision's mind fluctuate a little, but he didn't forget the purpose of his trip.
Taking a deep breath, he repressed his floating emotions, and looked at [Dominic Butch] in front of him with a silent expression: "From your description of the SCP Fund, I can feel that the Foundation is not an evil organization, in that case, why do you insist on controlling the Tornado to attack the American army?" ”
"In your mind, attacking the American military is an evil thing, but for the SCP Foundation, what I am doing is to protect all mankind, and the actions of the United States have hindered the containment of the Foundation, what would you do if you had to choose between the safety of all mankind and the group of American troops in front of you?"
“… [58 fo]…”
Unlike most of the Avengers, perhaps because of the loss of most of their memories, Vision's feelings for America are not as heavy as those of other Avengers.
Therefore, when he heard [Dominic Butch]'s rhetorical question, his face clearly showed a look of silence.
Half a ring, before shaking his head.
"I don't know, reason tells me that the SCP Foundation made the right decision. However, the captain is right, this is not a choice question, any life is priceless and cannot be compared. ”
"That's because the Avengers haven't met that day yet, and sooner or later, you, like the SCP Fund, will have to make a choice."
Taking a deep look at the vision in front of him, [Dominic Butch] said in a deep voice.
As his words fell, the stand-in [Weather Forecast] in front of him immediately waved his fist, generating a violent electric current to hit the opposite vision.
Boom Boom –
The lightning formed on the fist fell on the illusion's virtual body, instantly provoking a strong reaction, and although the ability to change the density of the body allowed the vision to ignore most of the physical damage, it was obviously not immune to pure energy like lightning.
Because of the damage of the lightning, Vision's blurred body became looming, and the [Weather Forecast] who seized this gap rushed in front of him without hesitation, and his arms fell on Vision's body like a torrential rain under the push of the wind.
Boom!
Bang Bang -
As a stand-in composed of psychic powers, [Weather Forecast] can obviously not be a physical entity, and because of this property, it can also cause damage to the illusion that changes the density of the body into a virtual vision.
In a sense, the visual illusion after the body is blurred is actually very similar to the structure of the stand-in.
Although most of the [Weather Forecasting] abilities are manifested in the control of the weather, this does not mean that this stand-in is weak in other aspects. In fact, as a B-rank card in the system rating, even in terms of pure strength, [Weather Forecast] is second to none among stand-ins.
After sustaining a series of heavy blows from [Weather Forecast], Vision was clearly unable to maintain his ability to blur.
Huhuhuhu-
And at the moment when his body turned into a physical body, the violent tornado in the center of the eye of the storm pulled his body into a violent tearing sensation.
Under the violent pull of the tornado, Vision's body began to shake rapidly, as if it was about to be blown out by the wind in the next second.
Faced with this crisis, the Mind Gem on Vision's forehead flickered with a pale yellow light again, and under the power of the gem, Vision re-changed the density of his body. However, this time, instead of changing to the void, the density of the entire body has become as hard as a diamond.
The diamond-like body greatly reduced the power of [Weather Forecast]'s originally heavy attack.
And with this body as a counter, Vision ignored the damage caused by the stand-in, turned his head to aim at the mind gem on [Dominic Butch]'s forehead, and a hot beam of light brewed out instantly.
Boom –
……
"Quick, dodge ......"
Moving around the camp with his shield in hand, Steve looked at the soldiers around him with a bewildered expression and began to urge.
Not far away, Ultron grabbed two sturdy bolts of steel and fired high-temperature rays from his chest to melt them together, while an improvised shelter behind him was rapidly taking shape.
Hearing Captain America's shout, some of the soldiers began to follow the Avenger's words in the direction of Ultron, but many more soldiers were still under the orders of the non-commissioned officer and gathered at another location in the camp.
Seeing this, Steve's brow furrowed.
He quickened his pace, and with the help of superhuman physical fitness, Steve's figure quickly overtook these assembled soldiers and came to their location. The target is General Ross and the huge Patriot missile-launching vehicle behind him.
"Captain America!"
Frowning, looking at Steve who appeared in front of him and the eye-catching star-shaped shield in his hand, General Ross said coldly, "This is not the place you should be. ”
"General Ross."
Looking at General Ross and the Patriot chariot behind him, Steve's expression was also not very good.
"Do you really want to do this, even if you have a lot of firepower, it is undoubtedly wishful thinking to fight a tornado."
"No, I don't think, Captain America."
Turning his head to look at the Patriot tank behind him, General Ross had already had missiles with nuclear warheads loaded on the tank long before Captain America came.
"I've reacted to your performance before, this so-called tornado should have been created by the SCP Foundation, Colonel James once said that the Foundation can control the weather, and the fall of the two F-22 Raptor fighters that were dispatched before also changed greatly from the weather."
Being able to become a high-ranking general of the American army, General Ross is naturally not a fool.
He may be radical, but he also has the qualities of a commander.
"Since the SCP Foundation has launched an attack on the United States, then we naturally have no reason to avoid it, there has always been only the American army in this world that makes the enemy afraid, and there has never been a time when we are afraid of the enemy."
With a frenzied look in his eyes, General Ross looked at the soldiers in front of him and gave the order without hesitation: "Now, to launch the missile, I want to see if the tornado made by the SCP Foundation is powerful or the American missile is powerful." ”
……
"[Weather Forecast]!"
The crimson light formed from the illusion's forehead illuminates the drowsy environment inside the eye of the storm and shoots towards Dominic Butch at the center of the eye of the tornado.
Looking at the light that came straight through, [Dominic Butch] kept his expression unchanged and softly called out the name of the stand-in.
As [Dominic Butch]'s words fell, the stand-in [Weather Forecast], who was still making a fierce attack on Vision, instantly turned into clouds and flew towards the position of [Dominique Butch], and at the same time, layers of thick dark clouds were generated between the waves of his hands, carrying frost and cold air, blocking the high temperature light.
Under the obstruction of these dark clouds, the speed of the light was slowed down, and [Weather Forecast] took advantage of this plan, and successfully rushed to the front of [Dominique Butch] under the impetus of the strong wind, which waved its fist, and the wind caused the entire tornado to move violently, and the body of the illusion in it with the movement of the tornado was involuntarily pulled.
Although the diamond defense obtained by changing the density made Vision unafraid of the tornado's damage, the pull of the violent wind still caused his body to shake involuntarily, although the shaking of the body was originally aimed at the beam emitted by [Dominic Butch].
Rumble!
A beam of terrifying heat grazed the top of Dominic Butch's head, scorching the corner of his fur hat and eventually disappearing into the dark clouds through the tornado.
"Didn't hit?"
Looking at the missing ray, Vision's eyes changed.
[Dominic Butch] reacted extremely quickly in a moment, some beyond his imagination.
"[Weather forecast], keep attacking."
Reaching out and touching the fur hat on his head, [Dominic Butch] withdrew his palm and looked at the corner of his hand that only had a scorched lump left, the expression on his face did not change, but his tone became obviously a little lower.
Feeling the change in the heart of [Dominic Butch], the purple light in the eyes of the stand-in [Weather Forecast] seemed to be a little brighter, and at the same time, the violent lightning in the tornado began to form, and a large number of lightning shuttled through the tornado, making the already dangerous natural disaster even more deadly.
And with the entanglement of lightning, what was originally an ordinary tornado has become an electric tornado that can only occur in extreme climates.
Boom Boom –
"Hulk, strike!"
A large amount of violent electricity gave the tornado a deadly purple and blue color to the pitch black weather.
Under these lightning bolts, even if his body density has reached the illusion of diamonds, he does not dare to underestimate it, and he constantly controls his body to avoid the damage of lightning.
And just under the lightning of the tornado, with a deafening roar, a dark green figure broke through the raging tornado and the lightning entered the eye of the tornado.
