Chapter 59: Attacked
"Anyway, we're going to go over there and have a look." Coulson's tone was also a little solemn, and then he asked Hawkeye, "Can the final position of the exploration vehicle be determined?" ”
Hawkeye nodded, operated on the notebook for a moment, and said, "It's about one hundred and eighty meters away from us, on Thirty-second Street, more than five meters underground, it should be in the sewers." ”
"Find a map of the city's sewer system, prepare it, and we'll go down and explore it later."
After waiting for a while, after the new agents sent by S.H.I.E.L.D. exchanged guards with the current ones, Coulson took Bucky, Hawkeye, and two teams of twelve agents to the entrance to the sewer closest to the other exit of the cave.
In order to prevent a shortage of oxygen or toxic gases in the sewer, each person carries a small oxygen tank. Bucky also opted for an assault rifle invented by S.H.I.E.L.D., but Hawkeye, which was still a bow and a pot of arrows, and did not carry additional weapons.
New York's urban sewers are intricate, and even if Bucky and his party chose the nearest sewer entrance, the distance was more than a hundred meters. At this time, all the people walking in the sewers turned on the safety of their guns and moved forward cautiously, always on the lookout for some unknown creatures to suddenly attack them.
Slowly moving towards the destination for a few tens of meters, suddenly, several "squeak" cries attracted everyone's attention, and more than a dozen guns immediately pointed in the direction from which the sound came. Through the searchlight on the gun, Bucky saw a dark gray rat disappear into the darkness again.
"Everyone be vigilant, I am afraid that our whereabouts have been exposed, and that intelligent life should soon know that we are coming!" Bucky whispered to the crowd.
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but tighten the weapons in their hands, and their steps became a little lighter.
After walking some distance further, the stench in the air began to grow, similar to the smell of the manure in the warehouse. Coulson raised his hand and motioned for everyone to bring oxygen cylinders, now everyone could encounter that monster at any time, enough oxygen to keep everyone in the best fighting condition.
However, to everyone's surprise, the road was calm, and without encountering any obstacles, Bucky and his party arrived at the place where the exploration vehicle lost its signal, and here, sure enough, there was also a cave, which should be the rat hole that could lead to the warehouse.
The crowd stood on guard, while Hawkeye searched the ground nearby. Moments later, Hawkeye found several fragments of the vehicle of various sizes.
Looking at the fragments of the exploration vehicle in his hand, Hawkeye snorted and scolded: "Damn it, this is my favorite toy in the academy, I heard those old men who are engaged in machinery say that the cost of an exploration car is enough to buy a real sports car!" ”
Bucky ignored Hawkeye's complaints, picked the pieces from his hand, and examined them carefully.
"What is this exploration vehicle made of?" Bucky picked up a piece of shard and asked Hawkeye.
"What kind of high-polymer plastic, it is said to have the characteristics of light weight and strong hardness, and it costs a lot!" Hawkeye does know a lot about the exploration vehicle, and even the qualities of its materials can be blurted out.
Bucky handed a large piece of debris to Coulson, pointed to the blood stain on it, and said, "The rats paid a lot of money to dismantle this exploration vehicle, look at this blood stain, it is estimated that the rats are desperately biting and flowing out of their mouths." ”
Looking at the traces of blood left on the exploration vehicle, Coulson sighed and said, "It seems that that monster can really control the behavior of rats, otherwise how could these rats desperately gnaw on a piece of hard plastic!" ”
"Yes, we're probably going to face more than just an unknown monster, and under the control of that monster, countless rats in the sewers will also attack us!"
Listening to Bucky's words, Coulson immediately ordered the other agents: "Beware of all suspicious signs, even the cry of a rat could be a clarion call for an enemy attack!" ”
However, at this moment, a sudden change occurred!
One of the agents standing on the periphery suddenly felt something entangled under his feet, and then he was dragged to the ground by an irresistible force, and dragged away from the crowd.
"Ah......h
The agent was also well-trained, and after a brief scream, he immediately pointed his gun in front of him, and the bullets kept firing.
At the same time, the other agents reacted, aiming their guns in front of the fallen agent and pouring bullets from their guns.
The light from the gun's searchlight finally made Bucky realize that the agent was dragging the agent forward with a tail as thick as an adult's forearm, which was more than three meters long, and looked further on, it was gray and it was impossible to see what the monster was.
What's even more frightening is that the attacks of the agents did not have any effect, and the bullets could not break the flesh of the monster at all, causing it the slightest damage.
Seeing that the agent was about to be dragged into the dark shadows by the monster, Bucky hurriedly reminded Hawkeye beside him: "Follow the arrow, quick!" ”
Hawkeye quickly pressed a button on the longbow, then took an arrow out of the quiver and shot it with a "whoosh". The tracking arrow hits the monster's tail without any accidents, and the arrow is firmly attached to its tail.
The next moment the tracking arrow hit, the monster dragged the hapless agent and disappeared into the darkness.
"How's it going, can you get a signal?"
As soon as the battle was over, Coulson approached Hawkeye and asked eagerly.
Hawkeye took out something similar to a USB flash drive from his waist and inserted it on the electronic map, and after a while, he saw a red point of light, moving rapidly on the map.
Nodding, Hawkeye pointed to the red point of light and said, "The signal is stable for the time being, the monster is moving, and the speed is very fast." ”
"Then let's chase after it, now catch up, Michael still has hope!" Agent Duncan anxiously said to Coulson that it was his subordinate who was dragged away by the monster, so Agent Duncan was not in a hurry.
Before Coulson could speak, Bucky on the side said in a deep voice: "I think it's better for us to retreat, your guns can't hurt that monster at all, continue to chase, there may be more casualties." ”
"What do you say, that thing took Michael, he's only 25 years old, and his daughter is only 2 years old this year, shouldn't we go and save him? Ordinary bullets can't kill that monster, I don't believe in grenades, we have more powerful weapons! Hearing Bucky's suggestion to retreat, Agent Duncan immediately shouted emotionally.
