Chapter 249: General Attack
Somewhere on Earth. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
A dimly lit warehouse, consisting mainly of a makeshift desk and a blackboard. The only light source in the room was the dimly lit lamp on the table, whose limited light was almost entirely contributed to the chalkboard, which was plastered with portraits of high-ranking government officials and superheroes, and markers were drawn all over the photographs. A small number of figures have ticks drawn on their heads, a few have crosses drawn on them, and the vast majority have been left with big question marks.
It's hard to imagine that Nick Fury, who has the power to call the wind and rain on this planet, would abandon his gorgeous floating mothership and come to use such a ghost place as a stronghold. But that's the way it is, and he's been here for a while, compiling news from his scattered eyeliner every day, and spending most of his time at his desk gathering information, staring at the blackboard to decide which avatar can be crossed out.
Outside, there was the sound of the door opening, followed by the crisp sound of footsteps. Agent Natasha Romanoff walked quickly into the warehouse and stood at Fury's desk.
It's also a daily routine, and as one of his most trusted henchmen, Black Widow comes here once a day to report on the situation.
"The Avengers have failed." She said lightly, "They rushed to the place where the ship fell in Wakanda, and there has been no response. I'm afraid it's already ......"
"Yes." Fury said in a low voice, but he didn't seem surprised.
"The enemy's recent activity has been increasing, and the pace is picking up." Natasha said, "It's probably a sign that the other side is ready to take action." ”
"Indeed."
"So what do we do next?"
Fury groaned for a long time and stood up.
"It was much earlier than expected, and maybe the pirated Amozo rampage was really an accident and forced them to plan ahead." "But we're pretty much ready, and Dr. Richards of the Fantastic Four has informed me that he's almost done cracking the Skrull's genetic code, and there's barely enough people I can confirm I can trust." Just before it's too late, we'll take the initiative......"
"No, it's too late."
The moment Natasha's cold voice sounded, Fury immediately reflexively tried to turn around, but unfortunately it was still a step too late. An anesthetic needle pierced into his flesh with a "whoosh", and the high dose of anesthetic quickly brought a violent dizziness that caused him to fall to his knees.
He was sweating profusely, gritted his teeth and raised his head in surprise: "Agent Romanoff, ...... you?" ”
"Hah! I've fantasized about this moment countless times. "Natasha smiled contentedly and excitedly, like a little girl who had successfully played a prank," the Agent Chief's shocked expression as he knelt beneath me...... Isn't it exciting to think about? ”
"You're a Skrull?" Fury gritted his teeth and asked, "In the first place?" ”
"Not only that, but I'm also their leader, their empress." Natasha smirked, "I didn't expect that, right?" I just like this kind of excitement, personally undercover by the other party's secret service leader, is there anything more exciting than this? The great Nick Fury thought he had discovered the secret of our Skrull Empire's invasion before anyone else, and then went underground to fight us for so long, but he never thought that all your actions were under our control from the beginning! Ha ha! ”
Fury didn't reply, and tried to get up, but his weakened body didn't allow him to do so.
"It's over, so is your spy game, and so is the invasion of this planet." She smiled, "Right now that we're talking, the general offensive has begun. But aggression against the planet? It was done long before the general offensive began - you lost. ”
Aegis on the mothership.
The highest level of alarm sounded throughout the aircraft carrier, and almost all electronic displays were marked with a countdown to self-destruction in the most conspicuous colors. Acting Captain Hill rushed into the aircraft carrier headquarters, and when he saw several agents gathered in front of the console with the highest authority restrictions, he drew his gun and shouted, "Get out of there!" ”
Several people turned around slowly and looked at her with a shallow smile, as if mockery.
As if suddenly, a dozen agents burst out of the command room, all of a dozen guns drawn, and surrounded Hill.
Before she knew it, Aegis had fallen.
New York, inside the Fantastic Four building.
Mr. Fantastic, Reed Richards, the leader of the Fantastic Four, has the honorable title of "one of the smartest people in the world" and was the first person Fury identified and contacted after discovering the Skrull invasion. After a month of hard work in the laboratory, he finally found the way to crack the genetic code of those Skrulls, and he has entered the most critical stage.
That's when his lover Susan Storm, the invisible woman of the Fantastic Four, enters the lab and doesn't say a word.
"I'm sorry, Susan." Reed didn't lift his head, his attention was still focused on his experiment, "I'm very busy right now, can I talk about it in the evening if I have something?" ”
Susan still didn't speak, but she didn't leave. She silently walked to the console in the no-go area, stretched out her hand and operated it like a programmed machine.
When the alarm sounded, Reed finally realized that something was wrong. As soon as he turned around and saw Susan in front of the console, he was shocked, "What are you doing!?" ”
Susan turned around and smiled at him.
In the next second, the dazzling firelight condensed into a ball and spread out from the top floor of the building without saying anything. In the blink of an eye, the Fantastic Four Mansion suddenly disintegrated from the middle upward.
Similar situations have occurred in various organizations large and small across the globe at the same time, and any organization or force that might pose a threat to the invasion of the Skrulls has been paralyzed in an instant, completely unable to resist. The Skrull Empress was right, the war was over before most people on Earth knew it, humanity had lost a long time ago, and now things were just going exactly according to the script of the Skrulls......
...... But is that really all there is to it?
At this moment, the Metropolitan, the headquarters of the Lex Group.
"I'm wondering when these alien reptiles will have to do it." Chairman Lex Luthor sat calmly at his desk, seemingly idle, fiddling with a delicate model of an airplane, "I didn't do it until now." ”
Seeing that the female secretary standing beside him seemed to be speechless, he smiled slightly and asked, "What?" Do you have a question for you, Moxie? ”
"No, Mr. Luther, it's just ......," Moxie asked, hesitating, puzzled, "...... Now that you've known for a long time, why not stop them? ”
"Block? Are there any benefits? Luther raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Yes, I noticed the alien reptiles when they just stretched out their dirty paws towards Earth, but if I defused this invasion before it happened, who else but me would know?" ”
Moxie nodded understandingly.
"Wait, Moxie." Luthor leaned back in his chair, his fingers crossed behind his bare head, "These stupid, inferior alien creatures have given me a great opportunity. I had cast the net long before they noticed, and soon it was time to close it. ”
