Chapter 155: Death of the Minister of Defense
With the soldiers to contain him, Banner also took advantage of his own strengths and attacked one of them with all his might, ignoring the other sentries beside him, regardless of the ice and flames, and relying on his own defense to resist hard.
"Michael, what are you doing!"
Reed, who had been following the other Avengers in his charge, stopped abruptly and shouted at the Stone Man in the distance.
I didn't know when, Michael, who was covered in earthy yellow rocks, had already rushed into the vicinity of the battle circle of the special people.
Hearing the captain's shout, Michael replied without looking back: "This is more suitable for me." ”
Reed stretched out his hand to stop Michael, but the invisible woman who had been by his side grabbed his hand and stopped: "Michael is right, this place is indeed more suitable for his play." ”
Although the stone body is far less large than the Hulk, it is not small, and if it encounters an enemy in the aisle, it will not only not be able to exert its full strength, but may also affect others.
"yes."
Fury, who was not far away, heard the movement here, and also persuaded: "Even if they can't stop each other, as long as they hold out for a while, our reinforcements will be coming soon." ”
In order to avoid being discovered by the other side, the large force did not follow, but was stationed on the border between Alaska and Canada.
Once the raid on this side begins, the army will quickly outflank this side.
"Let's go."
Before, he was just in a hurry, but after being reminded by his wife and his boss, Reed also came to his senses, glanced at his companion again, and then turned around and continued to walk towards the entrance of the passage with everyone.
After the explanation, Michael didn't pay attention to the rear anymore, but raised his head to stare at the black sentry rushing towards him, his eyes were full of fanatical intent: "Let me see what is so special about the terrifying sentry." ”
A fist the size of a basin slammed down on the lawn, and I saw a twist at the feet of the sentry who had been rushing to this side of the passage in the battle circle of the special people.
Immediately, a huge hand composed of completely rocks broke through the earth and held the sentinels tightly.
He is known as the Stone Man, not only because of his stone-covered appearance, but also because of his other ability: 'Earth Elemental Affinity'.
As long as he has his feet on the earth, Michael seems to be the darling of heaven and earth, the son of the earth, and can control anything on the earth that is made of earth and petrification.
Of course, the scope of control corresponds to his own strength, and cannot be used infinitely.
However, to trap the sentinels for a short time, these nearly ten-meter-long giant hands were enough.
Taking advantage of this short period of time, Michael has also entered the battle circle, and the sand around him has become dusty, and finally turned into a rock giant composed entirely of stones.
The surface of the whole body is axe and chiseled, no nose and no eyes, and the workmanship is so rough that it is simply unbearable.
But it was such a rock giant that brought terrifying damage to the sentinels.
The already huge fist was raised high, and the dust flew into the air to make it even stronger, and by the time it rushed in front of the sentry, the stone fist raised by the rock giant was nearly ten meters long and wide, almost equal to half of its body.
Rumble!
The Optimus Hammer slammed down, the air surged, and the sand and gravel splattered out, and Michael's attack was no less powerful than that of the Hulk.
Even if the sentinels tried to weaken their offensive, they had little success, and don't forget, there were hundreds of special human soldiers staring at it in the distance, they were not decorations.
When he ran out of energy bullets, he switched to air bullets, a new type of weapon inspired by the Inhuman, which was far less powerful than the former, but it was easy to equip and almost infinite bullets.
Under the suppression of this dense air bomb, it was difficult for the sentinels to make any moves.
After a single blow, the rock giant collapsed and dissipated, refilling the dozens of meters of dirt pit on the ground.
Misha was scattered, and only five sentinels on the periphery had time to escape and fly out, suspended at a height of 100 meters away, and seemed to dare not attack for a while.
The rock giant lost more than half of its weight with just one blow.
The dust cleared, and a yellowstone face reappeared, and the other five sentries were gone, not that Michael killed them with a single blow.
In fact, the vanished sentinels were only buried deep underground, and the rock giants who also disappeared were bound to the ground in chains of quicksand.
The two sides are like a child-to-child relationship, and they are held back by each other and can no longer participate in the battle.
Drink!
The temporary loss of earth elemental control did not make Michael flinch, and he only heard him burst into a shout, clenched his stone fists, and rushed towards the sentinels.
The Sentinel's response also came, and the pause just now was not that they were afraid of the other party, but that the intelligent processor had been analyzing the best combat plan.
At this moment, I saw the five sentinels turn into one silver, two red and two blue, and the body of the metalized sentry quickly dissolved and changed, turning into a metal ball with a diameter of four meters, and looked at the stone man wrapped inside.
The rest of the sentinels were distributed in four corners, and the ice and flames erupted alternately, one side was full of red light, and the sky was full of fire, as if they were falling into lava purgatory, and the other side was overflowing with cold air, freezing cold, as if falling straight into an extremely cold ice cave.
Under such an attack, the metal ball quickly turned gray-white, and a large area of hot white mist rose in mid-air.
Bang!
At this moment, a huge stone pillar tens of meters long pierced through the sky and swept a column of sentries out.
The Hulk in Banner's incarnation roared in this direction.
After regaining his senses, Banner quickly adapted to the changes in his body, and after working closely with the special people, he was able to divide the blow.
More than half of the sentinels who had attacked him had been wiped out, and the few who remained were covered in bruises and surrounded by special men, so that they could not pose any threat.
That's why Banner chose to come and help the stone man who fell below.
This only heard the hulk roar in the sky, and the boundless air waves flew out.
The entire space was suddenly filled with sand and mist.
The Hulk, on the other hand, followed the picture in his memory, found the nearest flame sentinel, and regardless of the terrifying heat spurting from the opponent, he punched and kicked out in succession.
For a while, the fists and shadows were staggered in the air, and they attacked the weakest point of the opponent with vigor.
The Hulk, who has a strong physique and extremely high resistance, is already a strong man who has stepped into the fifth level after recovering his senses, and under his targeted blows, the unlucky soldiers did not last long.
At the same time, with a clang, the seemingly forgotten metal ball was smashed straight through a huge hole, and a huge blue-skinned figure hesitated out.
Putting away his protective suit, Michael half-crouched on the ground, hot white mist constantly drifting out of the cracks in the stones.
As a member of the government establishment, he naturally won't go into battle shirtless, and he still has to have the equipment he should have, but the enemy rarely drove him into a corner, so he hasn't used it.
Sentinels, who were already unaccustomed to fighting non-mutants, naturally did not anticipate this.
However, even with protective clothing, the ultimate service of ice and fire is not so easy to bear.
After half an hour of rest, Michael recovered, looked at the three black sentries left in the field, gritted his teeth and said, "Bastard, I will definitely make you pay." ”
Saying that, the five sentries who were released broke through the soil layer and regained their full strength, Michael, who turned into a rock giant, joined the Hulk.
The sand and gravel are rolling, the fire is full of sky, and the two sides start a new round of confrontation.
On the other side, the Avengers without the sentry to stop them were like no one, and they hardly encountered any decent resistance, and the occasional scattered guards were directly eliminated.
"It's around here."
The journey was fast, and soon everyone came to a crossing, and the falcon pressed on the edge of the frontal mirror, and through the red transparent glasses, it detected the continuous signal fluctuations from the three passages in front of them.
In order to prevent the possibility of mutiny and kidnapping, the US secret department also installed nano signalers in their bodies so that their locations could be discovered in time.
It's just that it was not detected by the interference equipment before, but now when it is near, the detector has induction again.
Reed said as before: "Divide into three teams, and notify you in time when you encounter a situation..."
"Wait!"
It's just that before the words were finished, Hawkeye, who had been silent from the beginning to now, suddenly interrupted: "What are you listening to?" ”
Although he was a little dissatisfied in his heart, Reed was not a person who did not understand the overall situation, and he was also silent.
Everyone listened intently.
"Gunshots!"
After a few seconds, it was still Hawkeye who spoke, "There's gunfire over there." ”
The crowd looked at the passage that Hawkeye pointed, but heard nothing.
Thunderbolt glanced at the other party and asked suspiciously, "Are you sure you heard me right?" ”
Hawkeye said lightly: "The sound of the wind will not deceive. ”
As an archer, it is necessary not only to be blind, but also to be deaf and listen to the changes of the wind.
The U.S. team patted Hawkeye on the shoulder and said, "I trust Patton, he won't be mistaken." ”
As he spoke, he took the lead in walking towards the entrance of the passage he had just pointed out, and the others glanced at each other and followed one after another.
Thunderbolt's face was a little ugly, but he didn't say anything against it at this time.
Three minutes later, everyone finally heard the sound of gunfire coming from the depths of the passage, and their footsteps couldn't help but quicken.
"There it is!"
Through infrared sensing, the falcon was the first to discover the location of the target.
With a whoosh, a black arrow shot out, and a gun-wielding alien in the middle and far away.
Rumble!
The explosion sounded, and the surrounding Inhumans within a diameter of three meters were blown out, and the bones of those at the center of the explosion were gone.
At the same time, the other Avengers are also using the same means.
The U.S. team tossed their shields into the air, spinning at high speed and bouncing off to cut several Inhumans in two along the way.
Reed's rubber-band-like arm was quickly pulled out, and all of the Inhuman's weapons were unloaded in a flash of lightning.
The flames of Thunderbolt's hands directly covered the entire passage, and coupled with the suppression of the soldiers' shells, dozens of Inhumans were killed in an instant.
Letting everyone stop attacking, Fury, who was in a hurry, took the lead in stepping out, passing over the scarred limbs, and at the end of the passage was a gate made of metal.
The door has been opened, and inside is a spacious conference room of several hundred square meters.
At this time, the conference room was full of devastation, long tables were blown off, picture projectors were shattered, and bullet holes and craters were everywhere.
This is not caused by the attack of special people, they are the elite of the army, and after genetic modification, their physical fitness is far beyond ordinary people, and there are very few accidental injuries.
"You..."
Although he had expected it, when the facts were in front of him, Fury couldn't help but scream, but he couldn't say anything when the words came to his lips.
At this moment, in addition to the broken tables and chairs in the conference room, there were more than a dozen corpses lying on the ground, bloody and fleshy.
Most of the dead were wearing black suits, and even fewer were wearing military uniforms, and the few remaining ones were unmoved when they saw Fury and the others outside under the cover of the ruins.
"You're here."
At this moment, a hesitant figure stepped out of the darkness.
It was an old figure, with pale hair sparsely disheveled, a thin face, deep-set eyes, and no trace of life in them.
Seeing his former rival and friend become what he is now, Fury's heart was indescribably sour: "Old man, why are you doing this? ”
"Ahem!"
The old man was halfway through his feet, his feet were weak, and he knelt on the ground, and the scarlet blood flowed down and dyed his military uniform red, including other people's and his own.
Fury tries to lift it up, but is stopped.
"I..."
I only heard the former Minister of Defense say with difficulty: "I did not betray the country... Nope..."
Speaking of the back, the sound becomes low and inaudible until it disappears.
Fury's eyes couldn't help but fall with tears, and he muttered, "I know... I know. ”
With the secretary of defense in a high position in the U.S. government, if he really turns to the Sentinel side, it is obvious that the energy that can be driven is not only those that were shown at the beginning, but at least half of the air force fleet will be under his control.
He closed his old friend's eyes, and then looked at his colleague not far away, whose eyes were gray and who had obviously given birth to a dead will, and the silence in his heart was even worse.
Turning to the black widow beside him, he said, "Take them down." ”
After a pause, he continued: "Inform me that the officers who disappeared and died this time were all killed in the battle to defend the country. ”
"Over at Congress?"
Natasha hesitated.
Ephri's current position is not yet in a position to decide such a thing on his own.
"They'll agree."
Fury said slowly: "If something goes wrong, I will bear everything." ”
"You go down first, I want to be quiet for a while."
Everyone knew that he was in a low mood at this time, but they didn't dare to disturb him, and they retreated outside.
Half an hour later, the sky was full of smoke and fire, sirens were blaring, the snow had been cordoned off by a large number of police officers, and troops were stationed in the distance.
Three air ships were half-hung in the sky, alerting the distance.
In the control room, Fury put down the warm coffee in his hand and stared at the blazing fire on the screen, not knowing what to think.
The hatch opened, and he walked straight to Fury with a document in his hand, and reported: "The situation has been clarified, and the military and political leaders involved in the Sentinel Project have all been arrested, except..."
"Except for those who died in battle, right?"
Fury spoke slowly, no joy or anger in his eyes.
"Yes."
Calming down, Natasha continued, "We know from those who survived that they don't seem to be able to control the Sentinels. ”
"At the moment of its development, Colonel Stryker, who was in charge of all this, used the instrument to integrate consciousness into the computer, and completely gained control of the good soldier."
"They're hiding on Mars now."
