23. God assists

Gotham has been thrown into a terrible dark abyss, what happened here, what befell here, how many people know?

The answer is, many, many times.

"Don't tell me you can't observe that city!"

Alexander Pierce stood in the S.H.I.E.L.D. observation unit, his face was already full of anger at this time, after Nick Fury was shot by defected agents Hill and Captain America, S.H.I.E.L.D. work was temporarily taken over by him, at first, Pierce thought it was a great opportunity, but after actually entering the work, he realized that he had definitely taken over a hot potato.

Every day he faced all kinds of bad things, more trouble than when he was running S.H.I.E.L.D., such as armed invasions, military interventions, etc., and now, a city in the heart of the United States disappeared in plain sight, and those god-chattering mages told him that the city had been thrown into the demon world.

"Holy! Is this still not on Earth? This is still not an area controlled by human civilization?"

Pierce's angry voice sounded in the monitoring room: "Send the best reconnaissance plane, I want first-hand information! What the hell is going on with this damn space fluctuation!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the monitoring room was pushed open, and Agent Hilvet, who had risen again, walked into the monitoring room with an ugly face, and handed a document in his hand to Pierce, the current nominal leader of S.H.I.E.L.D., and lowered his voice:

"Congress has asked us to go out with the Ministry of Defense to rescue the people of Gotham, and on the small island off the coast of Gotham, tens of thousands of people are waiting to be rescued. ”

"Tens of thousands?"

Pierce looked through the papers, he turned his head to look at Hilvert, and said unceremoniously: "Are those councillors all in the water? There are 800 people in that city! They don't know anything about the situation, and now let's fight for tens of thousands of people, they don't know how many forces are gathered in that place now..."

Speaking of this, Pierce raised his voice sharply:

"Until I can confirm the reality there, I won't let my agents die!"

Oh, don't expect Pierce to be a really good guy for the sake of people, the purpose of saying this is just to win people's hearts, agents are also people, facing Fury, who often only asks about the results and does not look at sacrifices, and then facing Pierce, who puts the life and safety of agents first, people's hearts can be seen at a glance.

Agent Sylvie waited until Pierce finished speaking, then gave him a stealthy look, who coughed lightly and said to the agents who were working overtime in the monitoring room:

"Children, whether the 800 people live or die is now in your hands on the speed of your search, don't let the country and the people down. ”

With that, he walked out of the monitoring room, where Agent Hilvet was already waiting for him outside.

"Sir, I've been told first-hand that Cyber Hawke, the leader of the Devils' Gang, is seeking to enter Gotham, and this is our chance!"

"Well, what do you say?"

Pierce looked at the bald agent in front of him suspiciously, he himself didn't perceive any opportunity in it, Agent Sylvet pushed his gold wire glasses and whispered:

"That city has been swept up in that damn space, and even the mages of Kama Taj can't get it out, it's like a big cage, and now, one of the most troublesome opponents, is actively jumping into the cage, don't you think it's a godsend now that Project Insight is about to begin?"

Pierce's eyes lit up little by little:

"Interesting, you're saying we just need to keep him under control..."

"Yes, control Cyber!"

A glint flashed in Hilvert's eyes: "Take advantage of the time when he is in the cage, wipe out his forces, and pocket Mexico, even if he jumps out in the end, he will be alone, at that time, we have completely collected the resources of S.H.I.E.L.D. for our own use, are we still afraid that a lonely person will not succeed?"

Pierce's body shook violently, he reached out and took the cigar handed by Hilvet, and after a few sharp puffs, he took a breath of relief:

"Sounds good... But we didn't have anything that could affect that level of spatial fluctuations..."

"No, we do!"

Agent Hilvert Zhizhu stretched out his finger and gestured a square in the air: "Cosmic Rubik's Cube, sir, even if we haven't figured out how to use it correctly, but under the faint stimulus, the energy it releases can weaken space has been confirmed, we just need to try it a little... Give him a push. ”

"Hey, hey, hey"

The bald agent made a push motion and said triumphantly, "It's as simple as putting a hamster in a cage." ”

"Yes. ”

Pierce closed his eyes, leaned against the wall to the side, and thought repeatedly, but Hilvert did not bother him with a word, until after a few minutes, the gray-haired old fellow opened his eyes, and like a gambler, took a sharp puff on his cigar, and nodded to Hilvet:

"Then go, this time you're in charge! I'll let Rumlow go with you in the name of saving the people... Don't be discovered by the mages. ”

"Don't worry, it's not been a day or two since we studied the Rubik's Cube of the universe. ”

The bald agent lowered his head, a hint of strangeness flashing in his eyes:

"I'm going to get our Mr. Cyber safely. ”

On the other side, on the outskirts of Gotham City, a massive defensive line had been constructed, the first wave of reconnaissance from the Ministry of Defense was proceeding at a rapid pace, and beyond the scarlet, illusory light that had shrouded the city, the mages from Kama Taj were racing to find all the methods they could.

"Tear up"

The golden and scarlet light entangled, collided on the large teleportation array that had just been activated, and set up dangerous and dazzling lightning in the original area, as well as black spatial rifts appeared from time to time, forcing the mages who maintained the magic circle to take several steps back, seeing that the chaotic energy became more and more irritable, Strange and Mordo glanced at each other, and at the same time, they used heavy mana to suppress it and stop the teleportation array.

"Uh... Failed again. ”

Strange wiped the sweat from his forehead and said in an astringent voice, "Seven different teleportation frequencies have been changed, and it seems that the strength of the rift between the two dimensions is thicker than we thought. ”

"If you want me to say, it's all about hammering nails in egg shells. ”

Mage Mordu's face was full of confusion: "This is equivalent to us fighting against the entangled forces of the two dimensions, if one is not done well, the entire East Coast will be swept into the spatial turbulence." ”

Strange glanced at Cyber, who was standing on the side, exuding a murderous aura all over his body, and he sighed helplessly:

"It came down to our mistakes, our negligence that put 800 people in terrible danger, don't talk about that, let's try again. ”

The mages tried hard to see, but the worry about the situation inside the city turned into irritability and pressure, but he was unwilling to give up any possibility of trying, and he would not completely put the treasure on the mages.

"Whoosh"

The pale spatial rift opened in front of his eyes, and the embarrassed Hell Walker Konstantin rolled out of it, his clothes were wrapped with scarlet energy streams, like a poisonous snake trying to bite his body, and was forcibly extinguished by Konstantin, this guy was holding a golden demon hunting spear in his hand, judging from the burning inscription on the body of the gun, he should have just had a big fight with some opponent.

"How's it going?"

Cyber reached out and helped Konstantin up, but the latter didn't appreciate it at all, opened Cyber's hand, and staggered to his feet:

"You bastard, you told me Cheryl would be perfectly safe in Gotham, look at the trouble that is getting now, if something happens to Cheryl, Cyber... I'll do everything I can to die with you, I swear!"

"It's not my fault, you bastard!"

Seib grabbed him by the collar and shouted, "You have relatives in there, and so do I! Now, tell me... Can you go into the city!?"

"No, the dimensions of the Demon Realm are entangled at the edge of the city, like a wall, and I can't break through it at all. ”

A trace of despair flashed in Konstantin's eyes, and this prodigal son, who was always out of tune, also showed a really anxious look at this moment: "This is not the same as Lucifer's invasion at the beginning, this is the power of the collision of two dimensions, and it is difficult for a single person to work in this situation." ”

"Damn it!"

Cyber let go of Konstantin's collar, and he looked at the scarlet light a meter away in front of him, like a glass cover, from the outside, he could clearly see the broken suspension bridge leading to the city, and even the surrounding sea water was clearly visible, as if he could touch it with his hand, but this distance spanned two worlds, as Konstantin said, this is a distance that mortals cannot measure.

"Cyber, Cyber, do you hear me?"

Sim's voice suddenly sounded in Cyber's heart: "The Great Tengu said he has a way to take you in!"

"What?"

Cyber jerked his head up and pulled the sleeve of his left arm, where a shrunken tengu was tattooed on his skin, and Cyber poured energy into it, and a moment later, the great tengu appeared beside him with a cold face.

Apparently, the haughty monster was still angry at Cyber's forced contract, and he turned his head to look at the city shrouded in scarlet light, and he stretched out his hand, pointed it on the light, and he whispered:

"I just felt that there are still summoning god circles in operation in this city, that is to say, I use reverse summoning to pull you into the demon realm first, and if we are lucky enough, I can enter the city by answering the calls of these magic circles,..."

"So what are you waiting for!"

Cyber stood up, grabbed the arms of the Great Tengu with both hands, and said in a deep voice, "Send me in, I'll give you whatever you want!"

"I'm not done yet!"

The Great Tengu glanced at Cyber, his tone softened a little after seeing the worry and concern shining in those eyes, but his brow was still furrowed:

"In the demon world where the monsters live, it is difficult for other creatures to appear, not all monsters are willing to coexist with humans, a guy like you, once you appear in the demon world, you will encounter a joint attack from various forces, and I haven't tried the reverse summoning across dimensions, the power of the dimension is the most dangerous, if you want to enter as an entity, it is very likely that you will be torn to pieces by the power of the collision of the two dimensions. ”

In fact, the success rate of this operation is not even 20%. ”

Cyber shook his head, he raised the Tenggu Sword in his hand, his eyes reflected on the snow-white blade, and he whispered:

"I've already arranged for people to weaken the spatial forces entangled in the two dimensions, and there's no better way to do it now, isn't it?"

"Prepare to summon in reverse, Daitengu, I have a reason why I have to go there, and no one can stop me from passing there!"

He looked up, and in the distance, S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Helicarrier was already faintly visible, where Agent Hilvet had carefully opened a silver-white box and placed it flat on the test bench of the classified laboratory, where a beautiful blue, ice-like Rubik's Cube was shining with a crystalline light, and beside him was a stern-faced Dr. Fitz and another young female scientist.

"I don't really understand..."

Dr. Fitz adjusted the equipment at hand and said, "Why do we go to such great lengths just to send a gang leader into another world?

"No, no, no"

Agent Hilvet pushed his glasses and whispered, "Some roots are born to be trampled on, some people are born to do great things, heroes have burdens that heroes can't bear, besides, who said villains can't be saviors?"

"My Dr. Fitz, treat him as a test subject, if it makes you feel better. ”

"Well... Well, then call him the experimental guinea pig number one... The preparations are ready, and after 5 minutes, you can start to carry out the first wave of energy radiation, according to the results of the previous experiments, the space power will be suppressed by about a third, and I hope that this poor guinea pig will come back from the other world alive. ”
