160, Sentinel's debut
It was a night that was destined to be unpeaceful.
Far away at S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters on the banks of the Potomac River, under the shiny eagle emblem, are low-level agents in a hurry, who organize and summarize various detailed graphic reports and a large number of surveillance videos, and then hand them over to their superiors for review.
As Coulson embarks on a journey to New Mexico, Maria Hill, a sleek female commander, is in charge. The riots in New York are undoubtedly a sign of the growing supercriminals, who have come to the fore with extraordinary abilities after vicious events such as the Green Goblins carnival and the mutant attack on Manhattan.
"Eddie Bullock, a young photographer for the Daily Clarion, is suspected of being parasitized by an unknown alien life, and some time ago the citizens of New York also regarded him as Spider-Man, codenamed 'Venom'."
Hill handed a document to Nick Fury, the black director frowned and pondered, Hawkeye followed Coulson to New Mexico to investigate a falling alien object, Natasha has her own secret mission, not to mention that she is not a high-end combat force and cannot cope with this situation.
Do you want to send Captain America? Fury dismissed the idea, and now is not the right time to announce the Avengers.
"Can you contact Stark?"
Hill shook his head and said softly: "Tony Stark is holding a new energy conference in Los Angeles to show off his company's new products, and he can't get in touch for the time being, and he can't come over immediately." ”
"What about the Fantastic Four?" Fury asked again.
"Dr. Richards has been notified, though at the speed of Thunderbolt Johnny Storm, it may take a while."
The black director frowned, these super criminals are located in the downtown area of New York, unable to use weapons of mass destruction, and the top combat power of S.H.I.E.L.D. is still insufficient, so it is difficult to deal with this unexpected situation for a while.
He suddenly remembered the manhunt launched by the military, and it was said that General Ross's super soldier replication plan had been accidental, giving birth to an infinitely powerful green beast, and the only remaining single eye of the black chief gleamed, and perhaps it was time to expand the scope of recruitment.
"Who's the other guy?" Fury asked, looking up.
"Flint Marco, a bank robber, escaped from prison a week ago and is suspected to have had a genetic alteration, codenamed 'The Sandman.'"
These criminals or heroes who are active in the city, S.H.I.E.L.D. basically have a certain degree of understanding and monitoring, and the satellites orbiting in low earth orbit act as ubiquitous eyes in the sky, combined with a large number of video surveillance, enough to track anyone's information.
"It's a shame." Fury sighed, he looked at the Spider-Man who was gradually losing the upper hand in the video, and couldn't help but feel some regret in his heart.
A superhero like this who is innocent and well-behaved is simply the best candidate for the Avengers program, and the black director originally wanted to continue to observe for a while and then find an opportunity to recruit the other party.
However, it seems that he does not have this opportunity, but this may be a loud alarm to superheroes to know that it is often easy to have accidents when fighting alone, and joining a huge organization like S.H.I.E.L.D. is the most correct way.
Nick Fury stepped out of the office, his hands propped up on the railing, the hall of S.H.I.E.L.D. was full of people, and the phones in various departments rang one after another, never stopped, just like a securities company on Wall Street, and the noisy voices made this special department, which was beyond the government agencies, feel a little less cold, and the one-eyed director in a black trench coat looked around, everyone was busy with the things in hand, like a tense steel machine.
"How's the investigation of Stark's attack?" Fury asked, turning his head.
"The killer is called the 'Winter Soldier', the ace killer of the former Soviet Union, who has carried out many assassination missions, is good at using firearms, and has excellent combat ability." Hill pursed his lips, "Other than that, we didn't find any more information, whether it was entry records or follow-up traces, the only electronic information traced came from an overseas shell company." ”
The black chief was not surprised by this, and did not say much, and he couldn't help but feel palpitations when he remembered the secret invasion that almost destroyed the entire organization before S.H.I.E.L.D. became the jurisdiction of the World Security Council.
Therefore, Fury will never fully trust anyone, not even his henchman Coulson and the commander next to him, Maria Hill, who has been taught him the hard lesson of always being vigilant and never handing over trust easily, which is a valuable lesson that he has gained by paying one eye.
"With Venom and Sandman as wanted targets, if Spider-Man dies, we need to catch these two killers to appease the anger of the populace."
Fury prepared for the worst, facing the front and back attacks of the two super criminals, Spider-Man was obviously not an opponent, Johnny Thunderbolt in the Fantastic Four was difficult to get to the scene immediately, and Iron Man was not in New York, even if the National Guard was dispatched, it was estimated that there would be no way to prevent this tragedy from happening.
From the video, you can see that the scene is chaotic, Spider-Man is strangled by the neck, tied to the steel beam of the abandoned building, temporarily incapacitated, the huge sand and stone giant swings a giant fist, and keeps smashing on the superhero's body, as if he was crushed by a crane, the red tights on his body are torn and damaged, and blood is dripping from his mouth and nose.
"Sir, someone has joined the fray!"
Hill, who paid close attention to the situation at the scene, immediately told the black chief, and Fury followed the voice of his subordinates, and in the blurred video screen, a dazzling golden light streaked across the night sky, like a sharp sword tearing the night sky, falling from the sky!
In the scene filled with a desperate atmosphere, everyone saw a tall figure wrapped in a strong flame of light, directly crashing into the huge and sturdy sand and stone giant, and the violent high temperature carried by itself directly melted the colossus of sand and gravel into a fragile crystal.
The golden figure that suddenly descended, like a foot lightning, an ancient god bathed in divine light, like a tiny particle of energy light, lingering on the surface of the battle suit, like a subtle flow of electric light.
The dark eyes looked at the angry roaring sandstone giant, the corners of Sean's mouth under the visor hooked a smile, he clenched his fists, the surging energy rushed mightily, and a roar broke out in the air, like a hurricane raging, everyone felt it, and the abandoned building seemed to shake.
A heavy punch that tore through the air, like a long-standing cannonball, smashed into the body of the giant condensed by the sand, destroying the huge force, accompanied by a sharp whistling sound, directly blasting the opponent's huge body into a terrifying hole.
The sand and stone giant, standing like a high-rise building, swayed and moved, almost crushing the abandoned building behind him, the sand and gravel piled up under his feet quickly filled the wounds on his body, and the huge giant fist extended and lengthened, like a mad python opening its bloody mouth and rushing towards Sean.
"It's just a warm-up, big man."
Sean chuckled softly, and the golden figure rose into the sky, and a red beam of light like a hot knife shot out, and in an instant, it dismantled the sand and gravel in eight pieces, and the attached heat melted the sand and gravel.
The golden light was like fireworks, released violently from the body, enough to sink a huge ship's heavy fist, like a thunderstorm, the wind swept through the dust, setting off a small sandstorm, like a howitzer exploding, the huge body of the sandstone giant suddenly collapsed.
