181, poisonous snow
Although the strength and agility of the Hawkeye of the Ice Corps have been greatly improved, after being hit by Luo Xiu with a magic wand, he basically lost his combat ability.
Black Widow unceremoniously held down her old friend, and Agent Coulson quickly followed up with a dose of antibodies to the Frost Corpse Virus.
Five seconds later, Hawkeye took a deep breath, the blood in his pupils gradually faded, and his body became warmer.
The black widow was overjoyed and held her eagle-eyed face: "Hey, old man, see who I am?" ”
"You're a big deal, Natasha." Hawkeye smiled and said, "Almost broke my frozen arms and legs." ”
It was obvious that Hawkeye in front of him had regained his senses.
"Agent Hawkeye, where is Director Fury now? How many Ice Corpse Viruses did Loki create? Agent Coulson asked nervously.
Without waiting for Hawkeye to answer, Stark pointed to Helen Zhao, who was only wrapped in a shirt in the living room, and Luo Xiu, who was standing next to her shirtless, and said with a smile: "I think we should let these two people be alone for a while, let's go back to Stark Mansion first." ”
"That's right." Steve Rogers turned awkwardly to the side and said a little shyly, "Let's get out of here first." ”
So everyone left the apartment, and Stark, who was the last to leave, closed the door.
With the sound of the latch falling into the molar, silence returned to the apartment.
Luo Xiu and Helen Zhao looked at each other, and both of them felt a little embarrassed.
"Speaking of which, you're really the winner today, saving Hawkeye and teasing Loki...... They tricked me into the car for a false profit......," said Helen, smirking, "I should have seen through your hypocrite." ”
Luo Xiu spread his hands: "I thought Loki just wanted you to kiss me, after all, the content of the ice corpse virus in the saliva was enough to infect me, but I didn't expect Loki to be so mad that he actually let us load our guns and ammunition." ”
"So it's Loki's pot?" Helen Zhao rolled her eyes, "You kid is just a victim of his conspiracy?" ”
"Hmm...... It's a bit irresponsible to say that, and I did mean a bit of a fake at the time. Luo Xiu smiled apologetically at Helen, "Of course, if you feel that I have taken advantage of you, I can also let you sleep once as compensation." ”
Helen laughed at Luo Xiu's shamelessness, and gently pressed Luo Xiu's strong chest: "For the sake of you injecting me with antibodies, I won't worry about you this time." ”
Luo Xiu breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you for your generosity." ”
Before the words fell, Helen Zhao suddenly lightly leaned over and whispered in Luo Xiu's ear: "But I feel that the dose you injected just now is a little insufficient, can you help me inject it again?" ”
Luo Xiu was slightly stunned, and then immediately nodded with a smile: "I'm happy to accompany you." ”

Late at night.
Luo Xiu, who had been bursting his liver for many days, lay on the sofa and fell into a deep sleep, Dr. Zhao thoughtfully helped him cover the fluffy blanket, took a shower by himself, changed his clothes and went back to the laboratory to continue working.
Hawkeye's return brings important information, and the Avengers finally have news of Loki.
Loki is extremely cunning, and uses an illusion clone every time he meets Hawkeye and Fury, but Hawkeye can roughly estimate Loki's range of movement, which should radiate around his base on Earth.
In addition, Hawkeye also revealed that Loki is planning a shocking plot - Loki's release of the Ice Corpse Virus in New York is only a small test of the waters, and he claims that he can make half of America fall under the Ice Corpse Virus in a matter of days.
Eagle Eye's news undoubtedly plunged the entire laboratory into a deep panic, although the virus antibody developed by the laboratory has a miraculous effect, but it is impossible to produce it in large quantities in a short period of time, and although the antibody can be transmitted through body fluids, its transmission route and the number of potential carriers are far less than the ice corpse virus, so in the long run, once the ice corpse virus spreads widely in the United States, the antibody developed by the laboratory is a drop in the bucket for the virus.
"So what the hell are we going to do now? Is it possible to mass-produce virus antibodies as soon as possible? Steve asked with a frown.
Agent Coulson shook his head: "The mass production process of virus antibodies is very complicated, and we have to negotiate with manufacturers, report to relevant departments for approval, obtain raw materials, provide technical support, and supply working capital chains...... By the time this antibody is actually mass-produced, it may be a few months later. ”
"It's going to take two weeks at the earliest." Helen Zhao is more experienced in this area, added.
Tony Stark frowned: "If Loki can really infect half of America with the Ice Corps Virus within a few days, then it is too late to mass-produce Ice Corps Virus antibodies now." ”
"And once there is a large-scale outbreak of the Ice Corpse Virus, the whole country will be in chaos, and Loki can even control the people through the virus...... "Fitz said in despair, "and considering the almost omnipotent transmission of the Ice Corpse Virus, the entire planet will fall within a few months." ”
"Now it's really the end of the world...... "Professor Selvig is almost unstable.
Until dawn came, the people in the lab didn't come up with a suitable way to deal with it.
The ice corpse virus, which is adaptable, contagious, and destructive, is almost an unsolvable problem.
After meditating and smiling, the desperate crowd pinned their last hope on Luo Xiu, believing that perhaps only Luo Xiu could save all mankind from the end times.
But before they could wait for Luo Xiu, they waited for another visitor.
A sudden heavy snowfall.
The clouds seemed to appear in the middle of the night, unnoticed by those in the underground lab, and the clouds came so quickly that S.H.I.E.L.D. agents who specialized in weather detection did not expect it.
The first rays of sunlight towards New York City were obscured by dark clouds, and then large snowflakes fell from the sky, and in just ten minutes, New York City became a snowy city.
For the citizens, this snow is an unexpected surprise for them, and the snow in New York does not come so early every year, let alone so much.
Excited children ran from their homes to the streets, holding white snowflakes and sprinkling them on their partners, and even adults couldn't help but reach out and pick up a few snowflakes and say with a smile: "Christmas is coming." ”
All dreams shattered at the first mutation, and the mutant's roar was like the whisper of the devil in the depths of hell.
A young man's eyes turned red, and sharp ice blades condensed in his hands, and he jumped across the road like a beast to the square opposite, slitting the throat of an old man with the ice blade.
But the old man didn't fall, and he soon joined the boy, his scarlet eyes and the randomly condensed ice blades on his palms, making him a devil in the snow.
The End of the World......
