The moment the huge magical barrier emerged, there was an eerie silence in Hydra's control center. Everyone fell silent in an instant, and the room was silent.

They saw the enchantment descend from the sky on the electronic screen, bombarding the energy shield that protected the building with the oppression that seemed to come from the gods. The white magic circle and the blue energy layer squeezed violently, and the overflowing magic sparks and blue arcs were staggered and entangled, and one after another ripples spread rapidly along the outer layer of the shield.

The blue energy shield held on as best it could for three or five seconds, and then shattered violently with an overwhelming roar, like an eggshell shattered by a hammer. Pale blue shards of energy splattered like glass shavings, impacting through the entire building through shields.

At that moment, everyone in the entire building felt the tremor clearly with their bodies. They heard the dull screams of the bricks and tiles that had been piled up into the building, and the foundations under their feet shook violently, as if they were on the verge of falling apart with a single push.

The shield was lifted, and the back of the steel body in mid-air once again erupted from its back and swooped down. He broke into the house through the heavy door reinforced with three layers of composite gold, and quickly exchanged hands with the guards guarding behind the door.

It was only a matter of time before the control center was breached, and Straker seemed to have no choice.

He turned to the old man in the white coat from before.

"Twins," he said in a calm voice, "you may send them out." Let me see what they can do. ”

***

Michael slammed his way through the corridor and through the door into a hexagonal hall. Seven or eight Hydra agents had already set up laser guns high up in the hall and were waiting for them, and the laser beams were like a sea of blue that surged in the moment he stepped in.

But the Hydra agents didn't seem to realize that their body temperature had exposed their trap long before Michael entered the hall. Thermal imaging scans had already exposed the sniping points of each of them to Michael, and it was only after pouring laser light enough to melt through hundreds of tons of alloy steel on the dark shadow that walked through the door that they realized that the one that appeared in the doorway was not actually the enemy itself, but seemed to be some kind of disembodied image.

Clone spells, basic but very useful spells, similar to holographic projections, but much simpler and more convenient.

Just as a Hydra agent in the height was firing frantically at the doppelganger in the doorway, the wall behind him suddenly shattered without warning. Pitch-black gauntlets with white stripes burst through the wall, grabbed the agent and threw him into the center of the crossfire below. The poor agent was crushed to pieces in the fire of his companions in less than half a second, with a series of terrible screams.

The intertwined firepower of several Hydra agents collapsed. They quickly turned to the heat and quickly got up and moved to re-form the bag, but it was too late. Within ten seconds, they were shot down from a high place by pulsed light cannons one after another, and they were lying all over the hall.

Michael, aided by jet propulsion, maintained his balance and descended back onto the reflective floor of the hall, while Shirley began to intelligently switch between the helmet's vision patterns to help him search for the location of his primary target.

"The heat shows that the core is below us, sir." "Sonic scans show that the space at a depth of 20 meters beneath our feet has been elevated, and there is an 88.39 percent chance that it was where Wolganf von Straker was," she said. ”

Michael tilted his head: "That's precise. ”

He activated the laser weapon on the gauntlet again, planning to use the laser to cut a gap in the floor to enter the lower level.

If it had been two or three seconds longer, he might have done it.

Michael didn't see where the attack was coming from, and if he had to describe the feeling, he thought it was more like a gust of wind blowing down a deep hallway into the hall than an attack. Something slammed into the helmeted iron skull, causing a "clang" of metal and a crisp sound that made him shake involuntarily.

Michael subconsciously followed the opposite direction of the attack and looked up, only to find that there was nothing in front of him.

"We are under attack, sir." Shirley reminded.

"Coincidentally, I noticed it too."

The second round of offensive came after a two-second break, this time from the exact opposite direction. Michael noticed that the auto-lock crosshair on the helmet display locked onto an afterimage that flew past the corner of his eye for a few tenths of a second, and the impact followed.

Another crisp blow to his helmet, and while the force of the attack wasn't strong enough to cut through the composite armor's defenses to cause any damage, the super-high-velocity impact sent him a step back again.

There is no doubt that it is Quicksilver, if according to the MCU movie setting, it is a superpowered teenager who gained super speed from Baron Straker's experiments.

However, Michael was not surprised at all, he had expected that attacking Baron Straker's base would be mentally prepared by the Super Twins. It can even be said that he personally attacked Straker's last base for a small part because he wanted to meet the two of them in person.

Speaking of twins...... Since Quicksilver is here, it must mean that his sister Scarlet Witch (at least according to the movie) is also nearby.

Sure enough, when Michael looked back again, he found a girl dressed in black who had appeared at the entrance of the hall at some point, with long reddish-brown hair and a layer of dark red waves covering her dark eyes, with a sharp aura like a knife.

Scarlet Witch.

If memory serves, Michael is convinced that the Scarlet Witch in the movie has similar abilities to telekinesis, and she can use her mind to create some kind of situational fluctuations to attack or defend, and she can also teleport objects. But he really doesn't remember anyone in the movie mentioning that Scarlet Witch's abilities have anything to do with magic.

Why? Because now he can smell the smell of magic, and the unfathomable magic comes precisely from the girl in black in front of him.

In fact, Stricker had sensed this strange magical energy since he tried to use Scarlet Witch's abilities to find Michael's location, but he wasn't quite sure it at the time. But now, he was 100% sure that Scarlet Witch was also a mage.

The girl reached out her hands, and the dark red energy enveloped her white and slender hands like flames. Her arms were staggered, arcing in opposite directions, powerful energy fluctuations deeply imprinted into the air with the trajectory of her movements.

The dark red flames burned to the highest point in those bright black eyes, and visible ripples bloomed from her standing body. They spread like the waves at high tide, swept against the shiny floor like an autumn wind, and crashed against the walls and load-bearing pillars like waves of fierce waves. The crimson light enveloped the entire hall, the ground trembled slightly, and dust sprinkled down, as if the whole building was trembling at the power of this petite girl!

"Extremely high energy fluctuations were detected." Shirley said, using an almost vertical energy curve to visually reflect the power of the witch's energy in the display interface. She continued: "There are no known databases of any similar energy reactions. However, according to speculation, it is highly likely that the energy operates in a special form of magical ability. ”

"I know." Michael said lightly as he faced the dark red storm of magic.

Wild, chaotic, with a dark aura and extremely aggressive.

Michael began to recognize the magical powers of the Scarlet Witch. He had never seen it with his own eyes, but he had read descriptions of this faction's magic in the ancient magic texts of Kama Taj.

Scarlet Witch may not have even realized it, but she is wielding the same dark power as the Elder Gods' god Thethorne—chaos magic.
