Chapter 166: Liberty Island's Resistance
As soon as the X-Men were dispatched, Magneto on the New York side got the news, after all, Magneto was also a veteran when arranging an inside line from the opponent.
"So Charles, they're coming soon, aren't they?" Magneto said in a deep voice.
"Yes, they just left, and should arrive soon," nodded the White Queen, who was in charge of the news.
Magneto smiled lightly, and said with a cold look in his eyes: "I was still noticed by you, but it's a pity that you noticed it a little late, and I won this game!" ”
"I heard that Charles hired someone else," the Shapeshifter suddenly interjected.
"What a disgrace to mutants! We mutants actually ask others for help in our internal affairs," Magneto's eyes flashed, "But it doesn't matter, like I said, this operation is the general trend, no matter who they invite, the result will not change." ”
Overnight, tours around Liberty Island in New York were closed, so the only people left here were the Coast Guard branch stationed there, except for the staff responsible for maintenance.
Since the Statue of Liberty is a symbol of the whole of New York and even the United States, the Coast Guard guarding here is also the most elite personnel outside of the headquarters in Washington, D.C. The related weapons and equipment are considered top-notch even in the entire military, so although Magneto's support personnel are quite powerful, they are still found by the inspectors of their troops.
"Report to the Chief, monitoring personnel have detected an unreported unidentified object resembling a ferry approaching Liberty Island," the herald reported.
"Unreported? That's the enemy. The commander in charge of this coast guard had a fixed look in his eyes, and he stood up directly and ordered: "Notice, everyone is in a state of imminent battle, and all weapons are in place!" ”
"Yes."
On the other side, on the ferry loaded with the special instrument, a mutant with unusual ears took off a machine similar to a headset and reported to Magneto, who was standing beside him: "Chief, the other party has discovered us, and the entire Liberty Island is in a state of war. ”
"It is worthy of an elite unit, and there is indeed a set. It's just a group of ordinary people, and even if they find out, what can you change? Magneto King Gujing Bubo said: "Since it has been discovered, there is no need to hide." Inform the water curtain to be removed, and the others will act as planned to take down Liberty Island in the shortest possible time! ”
"Yes!"
Needless to say, Magneto is determined to succeed here, and the commander of this coast guard is another temper tantrum, after a short warning on the Liberty Island side of the temptation to no avail, the coast guard launched a large-scale attack on the ferry on Magneto's side.
Several of the military's latest armed planes in service took off directly into the air and flew to Magneto's location according to the navigation on the ground.
At the same time, the torpedoes of the standing torpedo ships and several Jericho tactical missiles also roared at the invading enemy under the guidance of ground navigation instruments.
"Just some toys!" In the face of these attacks that are not specifically aimed at mutants, the Brotherhood has nothing on its side. It didn't even take Magneto's shot, and in an instant, including the gunship, it fell into the hands of many powerful mutants one by one.
Seeing all kinds of strange attacks flying all over the sky, if the commander of the coast guard here still can't figure out who the other party is, then he is too incompetent as a commander.
"Bastard!" The commander couldn't help but scold angrily: "What are these mutants doing? Actually hit the idea to Liberty Island, aren't they afraid that the group of politicians will settle accounts with them? ”
"Sir," the adjutant couldn't help but ask anxiously in the face of the mutants who were getting closer and closer, and even some of them had the ability to fly and had already cut into the island, "what should we do?" ”
It's no wonder that this adjutant is in a hurry, you must know that they are the Gulf Guard on Liberty Island, although it is also considered elite, but that is only relatively. In front of a superpowered criminal group with strange abilities, what they can do is actually quite limited.
"What else can I do?" The commander said solemnly: "We are soldiers, and it is our responsibility to defend our positions!" Whatever their purpose, there is only one thing we have to do, and that is to stop them!
Tell me to equip all the weapons against mutants that Trask Industries sponsored us in the first place, and prepare the Power Warframe units to enter combat mode, and give me all the strength to snipe them. In addition, spread the news that Liberty Island was attacked by mutants, and asked the Ministry of Defense to send professional troops to reinforce it immediately. ”
"Yes, sir, but ...... Our communication devices have been blocked, and the targets of people and means of transportation are too large, so the ......" adjutant is in a dilemma.
"Idiot!" The commander hated it and said, "If you don't have a communication device and can't send people, are you out of line?" I let those pigeons in your communications department eat dry food! ”
"Yes!"
It has to be said that sometimes the ancient methods of communication are quite effective. Soon, several pigeons carrying urgent information flew out of the already sealed island.
On the other hand, the massive communications breakdown in New York City has also attracted the attention of major agencies and organizations.
S.H.I.E.L.D., in the Director's office.
"Haven't you been in contact with New York yet?" The one-eyed director was irritated.
There have been too many troubles lately, first Anthony and King are fighting in Manhattan, and then the fraternity is robbing prisons all over the place, and a series of emergencies have caused the one-eyed director to be exhausted, and now the communication here in New York is blocked on a large scale. I won't let people stop for a while!
"Yes, Director, even the underground secret line at our substation has been blocked." Hill said expressionlessly.
Hearing this, the one-eyed director frowned slightly, thought for a moment and then continued to ask, "What about the black widow?" I remember that her communicator is the latest achievement of the technical department, and the anti-jamming is very strong, so there should be no problem with hers, right? ”
Hill obviously thought of this after being reminded, and hurriedly began to make an emergency contact: "The director has been contacted, although the picture and sound are very blurry because of the strong interference, but after relevant processing, there is still no problem with the contact." ”
"Very well, take it." The one-eyed director couldn't help but have a hint of joy in his eyes.
"Yes."
"So, you don't have a clue on your side," the One-Eyed Director was obviously overestimating his ace agent, and in the face of the sudden large-scale communication blockade and information blockade, the Black Widow was also confused.
"Yes, Director." Black Widow answered.
"Natasha, I command you," the One-Eyed Director was silent for a moment before whispering directly to the Black Widow on the other end of the communicator, "Now immediately put down what you're doing and quickly find out why New York's communications are being blocked and by whom." ”
“…… Be. "Black Widow now almost wants to send the bald head on the other side a MMP. Task after task, this is to use people as animals! However, she also knew the seriousness of the matter, so she could only take the order head-on. Now she can only pray that her trip will be successful.
"Director, is it okay for Black Widow alone?" Hill couldn't help but ask.
"Do we have any other choice? You know, in order to get those super criminals back, we don't have any extra manpower. ”
