The ATCU matter was quickly resolved, and Rosalyn regained Coulson's trust with her actions.

Although Barbara and Hunter successfully obtained the key information, their identities were also revealed, in this case, if it was only those human agents of the ATCU, it would be difficult to pose much threat to them, but the trouble is that Malik left a mutant who can manipulate mental power here, even if Barbara's body has been strengthened to a certain extent, it is difficult to be the opponent of this mutant.

For some reason, Barbara was not completely transformed into a Taoist soldier by Ling Xiao, so her strength growth was limited, and in terms of her physical fitness, although she would not die if she was shot, it was inevitable that she would lose her ability to fight.

The mutant who can control mental power controlled four pistols at once, and countless bullets poured towards Barbara and Hunter like a torrential rain, and the situation became very critical for a while, and at this time, support arrived.

It was not Melinda and Lincoln, who also participated in this operation, but Rosalyn's deputy Banks, who led the men to force back the Inhuman who could manipulate mental power and save Barbara and Hunter.

You know, not long ago, Hunter knocked out Banks with a freezer gun, and now he was saved by others, hehe!

In any case, Rosalyn proved her innocence with concrete actions, and followed closely to clear Malik's influence within the ATCU, find out how much he had done to hide from her, and launch a national wanted arrest for him, of course, the details of which must be told to the president.

President Evans also felt a special headache for the resurgence of Hydra's power, from Alexander Pearce, to Whitehall, to Baron Straker, to Malik, Hydra's power is really as they say, inexhaustible.

Considering that both Alexander Pierce and Malik were members of the International Security Council shocked President Evans that, one way or another, Hydra was on their side of the enemy.

Those powerful superpowers may pose a threat to their rule in the future, but Hydra, Project Insight alone is enough to make Evans hate them to the core, you know, in the first place, US President Evans was first on the list of Insights.

The situation was much more serious than expected, and after an inventory, they found that all the mutants stored by the ATCU had been quietly transferred by Malik, including Andrew Garner.

Just as Coulson and Rosalyn were about to discuss what to do, Fitz and Simmons had just returned, bringing back more amazing news.

There was no progress in the study of the strange boulder, which they had expected before, but they continued to carry out the research with a glimmer of hope, but the truth eventually disappointed them, but inadvertently, Fitz made a new discovery.

For Will, Fitz's attitude towards him is very complicated, without him, Simmons would not care about seeking success to survive, and when the space door opens again, he will be rescued smoothly, in this regard, Fitz must thank Will.

Yet, in the same way, he was full of hatred for her, for a rival who might well take his lover permanently.

It is precisely because of such a complex mentality that Fitz launched an investigation into Will, on the surface, as an astronaut, Will is indeed the pride of his hometown, but after an in-depth investigation, Fitz found that the armband on Will's cuff is not a NASA logo, but a symbol similar to the head of Aries.

And this symbol is exactly the same as the rune on the round travertine cover where they placed the strange boulder in the basement of the castle.

This shows that Will's plan to find the way is inseparable from the group of people who studied the monolith 200 years ago, and along this path, they may be able to find other ways to open up the spatial passage, so they have launched a further study of the symbol.

Based on the study of dozens of semiotic texts that are ten centimeters thick, Fitz and Simmons discover that Will was not sent on a mission, but was sacrificed, and that the hallmark of his space project was related to ritual blood sacrifices.

Those who worked with NASA, coupled with the Andrew Garner affair, gave the two a familiar fear in their investigation.

According to ancient texts, they found that the evolution of these symbols dates back thousands of years, and that the sudden appearance of organizations obsessed with death and ritual killing, intertwined with the origins of pagan demonic mythology, made people even more suspicious.

In the ancient books, they did not find any records of portals, only various cases that proved the evil of the organization, Simmons couldn't help but want to give up, but Fitz still wanted to persevere, which made Simmons can't help but be a little angry, she was angry why he tried so hard to help his rival.

During the quarrel, Simmons inadvertently dropped an ancient book on the ground, and when the argument ended, she subconsciously went to pick up the ancient book, but it is estimated that what was presented on it shocked her, it turned out to be the thing they were most afraid of appearing.

It was precisely because of this discovery that they didn't even have time to say goodbye to Ling Xiao, so they hurriedly returned to the S.H.I.E.L.D. base from Siwei Island.

When Coulson took care of the ATCU for the time being, Fitz and Simmons let their findings be revealed before everyone else.

From the armband symbol on Will's arm, pushing forward a little bit, it seems to be a strand of whiskers under the jaw of a sheep's head, but when you go back to the last picture, the length of the horns has become extremely long, and the number of whiskers has increased considerably.

As they turned the last image up and down, something familiar appeared, and that was the Hydra logo.

The people who studied the monoliths 200 years ago, and the people who now fund NASA's secret missions, are Hydra people.

All these discoveries made everyone's hearts feel extremely frightened, you know, they have eradicated several Hydra forces, but now another Hydra secret has been revealed, so they have a feeling of the tip of the iceberg, when will the Hydra be completely eradicated?

And for Simmons, although she told others that Will was nothing more than a victim of being sent to another planet, it is also very likely that he was also a member of Hydra, and although he had been banished to others for so long, no one knew what he might do if he was rescued.

Is it really necessary, to spend so many human and material resources to save a member of Hydra, Simmons began to waver.

If when she was on another planet, she didn't have the heart to think about these things, then now that she has begun to re-examine all this, many doubts have begun to emerge one by one, such as Will's companions, did they really commit suicide or kill each other?

Before Simmons could figure it all out, another thing happened, and Rosalyn was sniped by Ward.

Just as Coulson and Rosalyn were having a candlelight dinner, in front of Coulson, Ward directly sniped Rosalyn to death.

Obviously, this was a simple revenge, Ward did not intend to kill Coulson directly, he only sent four gunmen to continue the pursuit of Coulson after he sniped Rosalyn, if he really wanted to kill Coulson, he would have pointed his gun directly at him.

In any case, Ward's sniping of Rosalyn completely angered Coulson, and he even asked Alfonso McKinsey to temporarily take over the position of director of S.H.I.E.L.D., and personally took Barbara and Hunter to hunt down Ward.

Prior to that, he had had had had contact with anyone in S.H.I.E.L.D., even the slightest contact, from Melinda, Skye, Hope, Fitz, Simmons, Hunter, and Barbara, especially Agent 33, Carla, for any details of their contact with Ward.

Kara's contact with Ward was crucial, as she was the person who had been with Ward the longest since the breakup of S.H.I.E.L.D. If it weren't for the fact that there was no sign of mind control in her mind, I'm afraid Coulson would have already controlled her a long time ago. Even so, Kara was not allowed to participate in Ward-related operations.

Kara was very understanding of this, and she and Ward were just using each other in the first place.
