Chapter 358: Departure

The monster let out a dying throe. I saw that the already broken body quickly dried up. And in a certain part of its body, it quickly raised high points.

Lin Xuan had already understood what the monster wanted to do at the first time? He shook his hands, and the entire sinkhole lit up with a magical light. A pale blue defensive barrier envelops the entire monster's body. This time it's not about defending against an attack, it's about making sure that nothing can get out of the singularity's collapse.

More than a dozen tumor-like bumps quickly ruptured, and some black oval-shaped eggs flew out. But under Lin Xuan's magic, he was still bounced back by the surrounding defensive magic.

It's just that just when Lin Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, a fierce red light emitted from the body that was less than one-tenth of it. It instantly broke through Lin Xuan's defensive magic. A black shadow flew out of the sinkhole with the red light, and disappeared without a trace in a thousandth of a second.

Lin Xuan barely hesitated, and an azure blue columnar crystal appeared in his hand. It was the most precious of the Atlantis magic crystals in Lin Xuan's collection, the Time Crystal. Immediately afterwards, the crystal was directly crushed by Lin Xuan. The next moment, an unspeakable magic erupted in front of him.

Because Erica was under Lin Xuan's protection, she witnessed the miracle of that moment from a mortal's perspective.

I saw that the moment the azure magic light exploded, everything around me was still. A kind of stillness in the absolute sense, time stands still. Then, everything within this range, except for Lin Xuan and himself, appeared a kind of 'countercurrent'. Turn back the clock.

The red light that rose into the sky shrank back like an upside-down videotape. And the hidden demon egg is back in the monster's body again. Time on the monster went back about five seconds. This is a local-scale time rewind, and the overall time torrent outside is not affected. This is a very peculiar phenomenon.

You can think of time as a huge river that keeps moving forward. And Lin Xuan's time crystal made a wave in it. It was about the time that he scooped up a spoonful of water of time and poured it back upstream. For the whole long river of time, it is just an insignificant wave. It only takes a moment for the river of time to smooth out this wave. But from a realistic point of view, this is a miracle of local time reversal.

When the magic ended, Lin Xuan had about three seconds or so to prepare in advance. When time returns to normal. Once again, the monster glowed faintly red. But this time, Lin Xuan was prepared.

I saw his right hand slowly pointing towards the black shadow. Everywhere his arm passed, the space distorted. An overfrequency vibration that was invisible to the naked eye struck directly at the monster in the direction of Lin Xuan's arm. And the speed of the red light also seemed to have slowed down under Lin Xuan's interference. Even the shockwave that affected the space hit the egg hidden in the red light squarely.

At that moment, Erica seemed to hear the sound of something shattering, and a wail of nothingness. The black eggs turned into powder, and it was all over. With the gradual shrinkage of the body. Its resistance is also getting weaker. Eventually, the entire body collapsed into a point invisible to the naked eye, and finally fell directly out of the existing dimension and completely disappeared from this world.

The Brooklyn Bridge has entered a state of tension at this time. The defense line of the National Guard and S.H.I.E.L.D. special operations team is already able to see enemy convoys with the naked eye. And the other party has no intention of slowing down.

The commander at the scene had been informed of the hostage incident in New York City through the communications system. But the direct order never came. By this time, the enemy convoy had already begun to pass through the Brooklyn Bridge.

"All on alert." It was impossible for him to give way without receiving an order to let him go. In fact, after knowing what these guys did, he even wanted to kill all the terrorists at all costs. However, the end result disappointed him. Just a second before he gave the order to fire, an urgent order was delivered.

The commander glanced helplessly at the convoy without slowing down, and finally waved out of the way. Hundreds of servicemen watched like that as the enemy walked past their eyes. This is a great insult to all the soldiers. The Hand crossed the Brooklyn Bridge and entered Manhattan Island, heading straight for an abandoned port.

"They are ready to go by water, all sea units pay attention, the enemy wants to leave the United States by water. The hostage crisis is not resolved, don't come near them, we have urgently mobilized S.H.I.E.L.D. satellites, and they will not leave our sight no matter what. "Of course, S.H.I.E.L.D. can't just give up, as long as the opponent's whereabouts are still under control, everything is not over yet.

A freighter, with a dilapidated exterior but a complete internal structure, was launched. The men of the Hand left the harbor on the steamer.

"This is ABC TV, according to what we have so far. The terrorist son who confronted the military has left American waters. But we can see that all the hostages have still not been released, and the government's negotiators have entered the school. To find out what the results are, follow the new ABC live. ”

"We have let them go as you asked. Now it's time to talk about the problem at hand. You guys didn't hurt any of the hostages from start to finish, and that's a good start. There is room for manoeuvre in this abduction. So, it's time to let the kids go. ”

"It's not time yet, you and I both know it. They are not yet truly out of your grasp. How many satellites in the sky are watching them? ”

"You know that no matter what happens, we're not going to turn off the satellites. It is a matter of national security, and it is not something that any one person can control. ”

"We don't need you to turn off the satellite, we just have to wait. Soon it will be fine. ”

Shortly after the conversation ended, an explosion once again pushed the atmosphere in New York City to the limit of tension. And the command center of the New York operation found that the real-time satellite image of the conference room turned out to be a snowflake spot.

"We lost the satellite signal? Sir. ”

"I saw it, and the key is to tell me why."

"Combined with the explosion just now, it should be that the signal receiving center has been physically damaged. We can switch to a backup facility. But that set of equipment never really booted up, and we needed time. About twenty minutes or so. ”

Nick Fury left the command room speechless. At this point, it's over. As he said before, the history of the Hand is much older than S.H.I.E.L.D. And they're not the kind of pure stealthy killer group. Or that the killer group is just their appearance, they are a super terrorist organization that spreads all walks of life. Perhaps the establishment of S.H.I.E.L.D. was completed under the watchful eyes of the other party.

"Coulson, I need to meet those people, the people of the Magical Council."

"It may be difficult, but it's not something I can decide."

"Then find a way. This time we lost badly, and it's time for S.H.I.E.L.D. to make a change. We need intelligence, we need technology, we need strength. Let Natasha go to Stark, and the captain's vacation should be over. ”
