"Good morning, ladies and gentlemen!"

At the operational meeting and command room of the Bear Shield Agency's 'Little Bear', Coulson gathered all the key agents of his special operations team at eight o'clock the next morning to plan the next step in the mission and make some necessary intelligence announcements.

Coulson nodded in satisfaction after looking at Melinda, Fitz, Simmons, Skye, Alfonso, Barbara, Lance, and Crystal, the representative of the Inhuman race, as well as a giant bulldog tetanus lying next to him.

Now, their Bear Shield Bureau's career is becoming more and more prosperous, and their equipment is becoming more and more sophisticated, and even the number of capable people under them is increasing, and he is really becoming more and more confident in whether he can carry out the mission well and whether he can protect the earth on which they live!

"Here I am, now I have two good news and one bad news......"

"First of all, it's something that everyone knows, and that's this: through the unremitting efforts of our Bear Shield Bureau, the Inhuman City of Attillan, and the representatives of Earth-related forces, we finally reached a consensus on some things last night! From today onwards, we will no longer have to pretend to be the FBI, the KGB, or any other organization when we go out on missions in the future! ”

"We can now openly use our own capacity as Bear Shield to make more of a difference for some of our future missions! Suffice it to say, our former S.H.I.E.L.D. is finally alive again! And, again, in a better and more powerful way! ”

"Okay......"

Looking at the faceless expressions of these people in front of him, presumably they should have known about this matter a long time ago, and after the interest was obviously not high, Coulson could only touch his nose in embarrassment and stopped, intending to say something else.

"And the good news is: an old friend of our task force, Agent Ward, Grant Ward, who is a member of the Hydra, I suppose anyone else remembers him, right?"

"Some time ago, he seemed to have been rescued by a guy named Malik, and by the way, he also snatched a strange big black stone that was kept by the Heavenly Hammer Bureau, and I don't know what kind of conspiracy they were trying to do......"

As Coulson was about to continue, Melinda, who was standing in front of him, suddenly interrupted him.

"Coulson, I don't think this will be good news at all!"

"That member of Hydra, he would have run away? Perhaps, it's time for us to get ready to go, and we should be able to get that nasty guy back before noon?! ”

After hearing that Ward, who had been lurking in S.H.I.E.L.D. and had been in his squad, had escaped from prison, Melinda couldn't sit still.

She still remembered that the reason why their previous S.H.I.E.L.D. was announced to be disbanded was actually all thanks to Hydra! And now, after discovering another gang of Hydra guys popping up, Melinda just wants to hurry up and clean up all the troublemakers!

Chop off one head and grow two more?

She Melinda wants to see, if she has a head, she will knock off a head, and see how many they can grow?!

"No, Melinda, you wait, I haven't finished saying this yet......"

After crying and laughing and signaling the other party to calm down for a while, Coulson wiped his sweat and continued:

"Now I'm going to say good news! What kind of conspiracy did Ward and his accomplices seem to be trying to pull up after they robbed an item that was kept in a special warehouse? ”

"You see, it was this stone that they had snatched! Until now, we haven't been able to figure out what it is...... Anyway, the people of Hydra risked their lives to steal it! ”

At this time, Coulson brought up a holographic screen, which showed the thing that the other party was trying to steal!

It's just that now that it has been transported to the lunar base by the Bear Shield Bureau, it will be a little difficult for them to steal it again.

"Thankfully...... Their whereabouts have been kept under the watchful eye of another team by Director Nick Fury, so they didn't succeed in the end! ”

"Everyone also knows that now our Ashield Bureau's monitoring equipment and individual equipment are not bad, surpassing the mainstream equipment on the earth for hundreds of years! Therefore, under the fierce surprise attack of a team of heavily armed marines of our Bear Aegis Bureau, they failed to implement the plan in time, and they were quickly served by the director of fishing law enforcement! Then, including the escaped Ward, we caught another big fish of Hydra, which is the Malik? ”

"So, that's really great news, isn't it?!"

At this, Coulson smiled rarely.

Now, he finally understands a little bit why the director has been letting those hydras go away recently, in order to be able to pull out some important people on the other side one by one? In this way, their Director Nick Fury's vindictiveness is actually quite heavy, especially when dealing with those Hydras.

Look, in order to target those old enemies, the director actually directly arranged a special team to watch the Hydra's every move, and inadvertently, he caught a large string of big fish.

"Sorry to excuse me......"

"The stone you just talked about, I suddenly feel very familiar......"

At this time, the Inhuman princess Crystal, who had been sitting next to him and was listening to Coulson's speech boredly while teasing her big dog from time to time, suddenly stood up in surprise and looked incredulously at the hologram of the stolen item that had just been called up by Coulson.

"Uh...... Crystal Princess, are you sure you know this thing, this stone?! ”

Coulson was also a little surprised to see that this little princess of the Inhuman race, who had never been very involved in their affairs, and who had only been listening most of the time, had now spoken unexpectedly suddenly. It would be great if they really knew about it, and it would save them any more haphazard research!

"I'm not sure about ...... either"

"Mr. Coulson, I would like to ask you first: is this black stone, has it always been the same stone, without any changes, or does it occasionally have some strange reactions? For example...... Suddenly melted into water, and then solidified again? ”

Walking over to the black boulder hologram released by Coulson, the crystal reached out and grabbed it in front of his eyes, and began to look at it carefully for a while, and then zoomed in and continued to observe for a while, before asking a little uncertainly.

"That's right! You're right! This thing, that's what it is! ”

"We've documented that people have been studying it for a long time and don't know what it is! In the past, when it was researched, it is said that it suddenly turned into something like water, and then suddenly sucked all the researchers into it, and then quickly magically returned to its original state! ”

"What's even more amazing is that after eating so many people in, it doesn't change in size in the slightest! It was since then that it was classified as a dangerous item by S.H.I.E.L.D. and locked in a special bulletproof glass cabinet. ”

"So, Crystal Princess, do you know something we don't know?"

After hearing that the little crystal girl actually said part of the nature of this stone, Coulson felt that the other party must know something secret that they did not know about the Bear Shield Bureau! If they could find out from this little Inhuman girl, it would save them some trouble and know how to keep it.

"If I'm not mistaken, it's not just an ordinary stone, it's supposed to be a Kree tech item, and at the same time, a portal!"

Most of the Inhumans in Attilan are using very fantasy Kree tech items, and many things are not on the same tech tree as human technology! That's why S.H.I.E.L.D. has been on it for so long that they can't figure out what it is.

But Crystal was different, she grew up in Attillan, who had a strong Kree tech environment, and whether it was through the documents she had seen in the past, or her own observations, she quickly determined what the stone in this hologram was.

"Portal?!"

Coulson couldn't imagine what kind of strange aliens and alien technology could make a teleportation look like a stone?!

"You may not know that we Inhumans were once experimental objects of the Kree!"

"I've seen a lot of hidden ancient texts in our Attillan: in ancient times, we Inhumans appeared on Earth only because of the results of experiments during the war between the Cree and the Skrulls! Our ancestors were actually experimental items forcibly modified by their Cree people based on the genes of earthlings, although, for some reason, they gave up in the end......"

And among them, there is a terrible being, his name, called the Hive...... He was designed by the Cree to control us Inhumans as a leader......"

"Anyway, his mutation in Terrigen has transformed him into a terrifying being like a cellular parasite, capable of perpetuating other people's bodies for perpetuity...... And at the same time, in the process, gain the memories of others......"

"It is said that the body of the other earth is a strange person with the head of an octopus with tentacles......"

"The hive, or the queen bee? He is also able to release parasites to devour humans as nourishment, or use parasitism to directly affect other Inhumans and dominate their will to enslave and control ......"

"It is said that no Inhuman can resist his control......"

This kind of existence made our ancestors fear him and fear him...... Therefore, at that time, someone used the Kree portal technology to banish him directly to a distant planet! And if I'm not mistaken, it's this kind of stone, and it's exactly like the one recorded in the literature......"

"This thing is really terrible!"

"On your earth, there are still people who want to recall that evil being who has been banished? Don't they know what the consequences will be? ”

After holding the hologram of the black boulder in her hand and looking at it again, the Inhuman Princess Crystal nodded firmly. It must be right, according to the description of Mr. Coulson just now, and then compare the documents she saw before, it should be this kind of thing, her memory is very good, it is impossible to read it wrong!

"No, it's terrible! I'm going to go back right away and tell my sister and brother-in-law and the royal advisor Karnake that they know! ”

"Goodbye, I'll come back to you another day! Protect that stone! ”

Feeling that the matter was urgent, Crystal didn't care about anything else, and directly beckoned to the big dog behind her, and then after the head of Tetanus began to light up, she and her big dog directly used the ability to teleport, and disappeared in an instant, leaving only Coulson and the others in the conference room who looked at each other.

“……”

Inhuman ...... Hydra ......

An Inhuman called the Hive...... Head of an octopus head...... Control other Inhumans......

The head of an octopus...... Hydra ......

After silently sorting out what the little girl had just said, the shrewd Coulson quickly sorted out some important information from it.

He suddenly felt that there was some connection between the organization of Hydra and the octopus-headed monster that they all wanted to welcome back to Earth on their adventures? It's like having a connection to their current Bear Shield and Annie's cub, otherwise why would they use the octopus land icon as the organization's badge?

"Great! Ladies and gentlemen! ”

"We've inadvertently gained another piece of important information! Those Hydra guys, they probably want to rescue an octopus-headed monster called the Hive from a distant planet through that black stone-like portal, so as to achieve the goal of controlling the entire world of Inhumans and ruling the world? ”

"I think Director Nick Fury would be happy to hear from us! We, the Bear Shield Bureau, have inadvertently succeeded in smashing the Hydra conspiracy and protecting our planet! ”

Now that you know the general purpose of the nine heads, things will be easy to do! At the end of today's meeting, he will write a detailed report and submit it to the director.

It's just that this matter has not been taken too seriously by Coulson.

He felt that now that the other party had failed, even if he succeeded, it would be just another inhuman version of the incident of the charm banshee Lorelai! The only difference between them may be that one can only control men, while the other can only control inhumans?!

So, this shouldn't be a big problem, as long as they hold on to that black stone! Will those Hydra guys still run to the moon?

"Alright, everyone! Now that the good news is out of the way, let's start with some bad news......"

"Last night, the battle between that Flame Skull and our Bear Shield Bureau's magical advisor on the outskirts of Los Angeles is probably still remembered by everyone, right?"

"Here's the thing: after an investigation by our intelligence officers, we found out that the reason why those gangsters were chased and brutally killed by the flame skeleton was actually related to some dangerous objects! It is said that the gang members who escorted those things killed each other and almost wiped out the whole army just because they peeked at them......"

"And that thing, that's what we're going to do today! I don't think it's going to be an easy task, but when the time comes, we'll have to do a good job of all-round protection! If you don't have any doubts, go ahead and get ready! In the afternoon, we will take advantage of the handover of those gangsters to bring each other people and goods to the pot! ”

After saying all the things, Coulson finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Alright, let's break up!"

Propped up his hands on the holographic console in the conference room, looked at his companions in the conference room, and found that no one had any questions, Coulson nodded and signaled that he was now free to move.

Recently, their group can be said to have been idle for a long time, and now, they can finally do a good job.

Sudden Sudden Sudden ......

The sun gradually rose, and at this time, a middle-aged man with black hair, riding his own Harley-Davidson motorcycle, came to this seaside place.

It's off a beach highway in New York, and because it's a remote location and close to a private residential area with a premium ocean view villa, there aren't too many cars and even fewer pedestrians!

But the place where the man stopped now was strange, and from the outside, no matter how you look at it, it shows that this section is just a wasteland without any buildings! Pedestrians who happen to come here to play and wander around, or vehicles camping, will unconsciously bypass this place and go elsewhere, and rarely stop their eyes here.

Because, in their eyes, the great wilderness was surrounded by people with tall iron sands, and no one would be stupid enough to try or have the will to try or have the will to force their way over the weeds, and climb over the tall sand into the wasteland inside.

But the middle-aged man, dressed in a black leather jacket and leather pants, with a cowboy hat and sunglasses on his head, parked his strange Harley-Davidson motorcycle with chains around it and kept looking inside.

"Sure enough...... This must be it! ”

The strange motorcyclist muttered to himself, then turned his head to look around, and after feeling that not too many people were paying attention to him, he suddenly turned the front of the motorcycle, put on the accelerator, and rushed desperately into the wasteland full of thorns and weeds in front of him!

Then, strange things happened: not only did the other party not hit the weeds or the tall iron horse, but as if driving on flat ground, after driving a certain distance, before hitting the iron mountain, they simply disappeared and were never seen again......

However, even though there were quite a few vehicles and pedestrians not far from here, they strangely ignored the black motorcycle and the motorcyclist that had suddenly disappeared, and continued to walk or drive around the place.

(Report the little master, something big has happened!) Wake up, your house is now a thief! ）

“……”

Tibbs's words stirred up in Anne's mind, and a little girl who was sleeping soundly couldn't help but breathe, and it was clear that she had managed to be disturbed by her own bear.

(Wow!) Dear little master, I just found out that someone seems to have come to the door to make trouble! Hurry up and take a look, people are coming to your house now, why don't you get up quickly and get ready to copy the guys?

- Tibbs, who was left by Anne at the head of the bed, suddenly had a light in his eyes, and then he woke up a little girl who was curled up in a blanket and saw only the outline of a small body, intending to continue sleeping and sleeping until after noon. ）

"Who could it be...... This early morning ......"

After sticking her head out of the quilt and looking slightly at the spicy sunlight outside, which was blocked by the curtains, Anne muttered and shrank back again.

The sun hadn't set yet, and it was still early, so she wasn't going to get up so early. Anyway, she doesn't seem to have any special pursuits in her current life except for eating and sleeping......

Sudden Sudden Sudden ......

At this moment, there was a final burst of motorcycle engine noise outside the window, which seemed to be the direction of Anne's door, and then it soon stopped again, and there was a kicking of the car support, as if someone was getting out of the car, and quickly reached out and pushed open the small wooden door of her courtyard?

(Look!) Look! The stranger pushed the door open and was about to break in! ）

“……”

Half-drooping eyelids, Anne quickly sat up from the comfortable bed, endured the sky-high anger, pulled the little bear Tibbs who didn't need to sleep next to the bed, and then jumped out of bed with a cold face, and after slipping on a pair of small slippers, she directly pushed open the floor-to-ceiling window and flew out directly.

"Hey! Who's over there! ”

"What the hell are you doing on my turf? Do you know how to be polite?! Why did you just casually break into someone else's yard? Be careful, I call the police uncle to arrest you! ”

Floating over her little garden, Anne's sleepy-eyed little face was still full of anger.

If the guy in front of him with sunglasses sneaking in front of her house and trying to pry the door in front of her house doesn't give him a reasonable explanation, then he's dead! A guy like this who sleeps at himself and knows at a glance that he is a bad person, Anne will definitely not be soft!

Now, she is already thinking about how to concoct the other party.

"This breath, sure enough, it's your ......"

The man in black leather and sunglasses ignored Annie's questioning, but looked at the little girl who was slowly descending to a height, floating on the neatly manicured lawn in the garden, standing still more than ten meters away, and pointing his little finger at himself angrily.

"You're a mage? What is the connection with those mages and ancient cultivators? ”

"Forget it...... I still don't care about that...... I'll just say it: I'm here today to take the thing you snatched from Robbie Reyes last night! ”

"If you can, please give it back to me immediately, and then, I, Johnny, promise not to embarrass you!"

After taking off his sunglasses, he smiled and looked at the little girl in front of him. Today, he didn't really want to do anything with this little mage! As long as he can get his thing back, then he will really turn around and leave, and definitely not linger.

Robbie Reyes...... So who is that? I'm sorry, I don't know! ”

（…… ）

(Master, I think he was probably talking about the incident on the side of the road last night, the flaming skeleton......

- Tibbs sensed that the other party's body had a similar or similar power to the flame skeleton from last night. ）

Shut up, Tibbs!

I didn't rob anyone else last night, and at that time, it was already past twelve o'clock, so it wasn't last night!

How could Anne possibly steal someone else's stuff? Non-existent! She's a good girl! It should be today! Moreover, she was obviously helping the poor creature get rid of the curse, and she was definitely not robbing!
