Chapter 40: Attack on Alcatraz

S.H.I.E.L.D. Medical Room.

Captain Rice, who is being treated, welcomes a special visitor: Director Nick, the One-Eyed Dragon.

"How does it feel?" Nick asked, looking at the bandaged Steve.

"It's good that mutant has mercy, otherwise I'm afraid I'll have to lie down for a while." Steve replied truthfully.

"It's not surprising, I originally thought it was Magneto who would make a move, but I didn't expect it to be him." Nick said rather depressedly.

"No way, after all, the ghost knows that the guy who has been missing for months has actually returned." Steve reassured.

"If I knew that this guy would intervene, I wouldn't have sent you, but it's good that all the arrangements for Magneto have been done in vain." Nick sat down in the chair next to Steve.

"So what's next? To go to war on the orders of the Council? Seriously, I'm not used to what the Board is doing right now. Steve said bluntly, he didn't need to hide anything in the face of Nick, after all, Director Nick was also very dissatisfied.

"No, the failure of this mission also made the Council decide to leave S.H.I.E.L.D. and directly send the army to take over the Worthing Laboratory, not to mention Ying Ao, who has iron-blooded technology, even Magneto, I'm afraid they can't solve it, and then we'll come out and do peace. By the way, didn't you report Yingao's matter? Nick didn't care about anything, but suddenly he thought of something and turned to ask.

"Of course ......not," Steve was speechless, but replied anyway.

"That's good. Madan, I have to stand every time I have a meeting, but this group of self-righteous guys can sit, I'm already unhappy, and it's better to let these damn guys suffer. Nick continued.

"You calculated my injury, right?" Steve rolled his eyes.

"Of course, otherwise how to get out of this incident, the X-Men were also transferred by me, but with Professor Charles's character, he will definitely find a way to save the leeches, and we can watch the show when the time comes." Nick nibbles on an apple that was supposed to be Steve's condolences.

"......" Steve was speechless, it was true that he was injured, but it was far from as serious as it seemed, and most of it was disguised.

Although he was knocked away like a baseball, he didn't suffer any serious injuries under the protection of the shield, except for some abrasions when he landed.

……

"We're almost all here, it's time for us to get ready to attack, Professor Charles's side is ready." After Magneto's pre-war speech, Ying Ao said to Magneto.

"Looks like you've had a good conversation with Charles, let's go." Magneto laughed, and then led an army of more than five hundred mutants in the direction of Alcatraz.

"This is the list of Alcatraz personnel provided by Professor Charles, how do you plan to lead the army to attack Alcatraz? There were nearly 500 of us, but the neighborhood was already under the control of the military, and it was impossible to sail there. Ying Ao sent the message from Professor Charles to Magneto, and then looked at the dock where there was not a single ship and asked.

"Tsk, the council is really generous, nearly a thousand soldiers and jamming equipment. Well? Why sail a boat? As for how to get there, you'll find out in a moment. Magneto smiled and didn't answer Ying Ao's question.

"Well, since you have a way, I won't worry about it." Ying Ao shrugged her shoulders.

The army of mutants followed Magneto and appeared near the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco.

Looking at the majestic Golden Gate Bridge, Ying Ao suddenly realized something and looked at Magneto: "You won't be thinking about ......"

"It's been silent for too long, and there are many people who ignore the power of mutants, so it's better to give them a wake-up call today." Magneto said with a smile as he swung his hands forward, and the ability unleashed an invisible, powerful wave that spread out from Magneto's hands and shrouded the entire Golden Gate Bridge.

"Squeak!" The Golden Gate Bridge began to tremble incessantly, and at the same time, the cars moving on the Golden Gate Bridge stopped one after another, and everyone could feel the whole bridge tremble.

"Come with me." Magneto smiled and led the group towards the bridge.

On the Golden Gate Bridge, it has been found that people have gotten out of the car to flee, and the entire bridge has been controlled by Magneto, and the screws used for fixing have fallen from the sky and smashed on the bridge deck, accelerating the escape speed of civilians and the volume of screams.

With his hands crossed in front of him, Magneto bounced the cars abandoned by their owners to the sides of the bridge.

After everyone got on the bridge, Magneto turned around, stretched out his hands to increase the power output, and in a tooth-aching sound and violent shaking, the entire Golden Gate Bridge was forcibly 'lifted' by Magneto.

"Wow, the real power to move mountains and reclaim the sea." Ying Ao's eyes were full of shock, although Ying Ao was confident that he could defeat Magneto by fighting, but he couldn't do it with this hand.

Not only Yingao, but anyone else who saw this scene was full of shock. Steve's hospital room, where Nick and Steve are watching the spectacle through a screen on the wall, and while S.H.I.E.L.D. won't be involved in the Battle of Alcatraz, it doesn't mean that S.H.I.E.L.D. won't be paying attention.

"My God." Steve's mouth opened wide, the existence of Magneto subverted his understanding of the strong, in Steve's impression, although there are many strong people in the world, but at best they have strong individual strength.

"See, the world is very different from what it used to be." Although Nick was also shocked by Magneto's strength, Nick was born as an agent after all, and he was also the head of the secret service, and his psychological quality was excellent and he did not show any surprised expression, as if everything was under his control.

"So what is S.H.I.E.L.D.'s countermeasure?" Steve asked, turning his head.

Because mutants have all classes, and they are often ordinary civilians before discovering their abilities, mutants expose the existence of the inner world in disguise.

And with Jocelyn's move on the world in the source star, this originally mysterious world is no longer so mysterious in the eyes of many people.

"Actually, I have a plan, but it's not the time yet, at least until the board changes its attitude after it suffers a big loss." Nick smiled mysteriously.

"......" Steve suddenly felt a chill in his back, and Nick's weird smile made him feel very bad.

"Now we just have to watch the council get unlucky, well, Steve, you probably don't know, if this damn council knows that Yingao is back, I'm afraid they'll immediately change their plans and put all the blame on Worthing Labs. You must know that this Yingao is not only strong in itself. There is also the status of a diplomat in the Iron and Blood Empire, simply put, an oversized hedgehog, which makes those guys completely helpless. Nick smiled even more as if he thought of something.

Steve shifted his position indiscriminately, away from Nick, who was coming from behind him with an infinite aura of darkness.
