As soon as Banner arrived, no nonsense began the intense work.

It's already afternoon, and now that the hammer has an owner, the sooner you get more information, the better.

While Banner was working, Coulson directed his men to the town of Old Bridge to set up, and Oakes was not idle.

He was refining the astral energy he had collected during this time.

Last time, in order to extinguish the abomination, he took out all the astral energy accumulated in smart and pretended to be a force in front of Nick Fury.

So the consequence is that although the black bald man did not bow his head and bowed, he insisted that he come here when he opened his eyes and said nonsense.

There have been some changes to the plan, but it doesn't seem to be a bad thing, and a new set of countermeasures has been worked out.

And just after he had been going on for a while, there was a knock on the door of the room.

"Adviser Oakes, I'm Agent Level 6 Hitville, and Chief Coulson asked me to send you some information."

Oakes raised his eyebrows, put away the astral energy in his hand, and got up to open the door.

"Please come in, Agent Hitwell, it looks like Coulson is busy."

The bald-headed, bespectacled Hitwell stood outside the door with a file box, he smiled, walked in the door, and handed the file box to Oakes:

"Chief Coulson is busy arming according to your suggestions, and the vigilance and air control tasks here at the base have been handed over to me."

"I see."

Oakes smiled and took the file box handed over by the veteran Hydra agent:

"Is it going well with Dr. Banner?"

"Some of the data that the Doctor has just analyzed has confirmed that the material that makes up the hammer is not a known substance on Earth......

In other words, it is indeed from an extraterrestrial civilization. ”

Hitwell shrugged:

"We were already expecting it, but when the results came out, we were taken aback.

Now, Dr. Banner discovers that the hammer seems to contain special energy, and he is trying to figure it out. ”

"Huh...... I can't help with that much, but I'll be the first to show up when I need to. ”

Oakes opened the file box in his hand and took out the information in it—

That's what he asked Coulson to print, "Practical Techniques for Metal Cutting."

"Uh...... We haven't taken even a specimen from that hammer yet. ”

A reflection flashed through Hitwell's glasses:

"Dr. Banner can't help it—don't you ......?"

"Ah, don't get me wrong, I've been interested in figurines lately, this hammer is very good, I want to try a replica."

"Oh? That's pretty good, I was in charge of the hammer lab before Dr. Banner arrived, and maybe I can provide some parameters. ”

Oakes glanced at Hitwell in surprise and smiled:

"That's great, let's talk...... Hopefully it won't delay your work. ”

"Of course not."

The friendly exchange lasted about an hour, and Coulson's call came from Hitwell's headset.

“…… Sorry, there's a job. ”

Hitwell took a breath, gave Oakes a deep look, and smiled apologetically:

"Then I'm quitting, and it's been a pleasure to chat with you."

"Sympathize...... By the way, please don't bother me before dinner, is it okay? ”

"Of course."

Hitwell bowed slightly, then walked out and opened the door.

What the ninth-level "environmental advisor" was going to do was not something that a sixth-level agent could ask.

Being able to talk for a while is a bonus.

Oakes shook his head.

Level 9 Classified ...... Looks like someone finally has an idea.

And when the sun set, the sky darkened, and the searchlight of the temporary base was turned on, Oakes, who was in the lounge, put away the astral energy in his hand.

In order not to affect the test equipment in close proximity, Oaks spent a lot of effort to shield the energy leakage, while also opening up energy perception.

And now, he sensed the arrival of one, no, two uninvited guests.

Looking up at the already completely dark sky outside the window, Oakes frowned, picked up the wireless earbuds next to him and put them on.

"It's going to thunder so soon......"

"Boom!!"

Thunder flashed in the sky, and not a single star could be seen—

This stargazing resort, which has little rain all year round, ushered in a rare thunderstorm, and for a while it was covered with dark clouds-

Even though it was night, everyone could barely see the dark clouds gathering overhead, and the electric snakes flashing in the clouds from time to time.

After a while, the alarm sounded, and the entire temporary base went into a state of alert.

"Advisor Oakes, someone has barged in...... Our defense was breached. ”

Coulson's voice came from the earbuds:

"White male, in his twenties — plus, he's got very beautiful hair."

"Huh?"

“…… Accurate description, you guessed it accurately, his hairstyle is very shocking to the male protagonist. ”

"Do you want to make a move, sir?"

Patton's voice, which was already at the commanding heights, appeared in the channel:

"This position, one hit kills...... But his hair is beautiful. ”

"Wait...... Oaks Consultants? ”

"I'll go over here, what's going on with Dr. Banner?"

Oakes couldn't help but complain and went out the door and went straight to the center.

Just then, the rain fell at the right time.

The hammer suddenly released a strong power surge, and Dr. Banner's instruments were damaged...... And our communications have also been disrupted, and for the time being only walkie-talkies can work. ”

In the channel, Coulson's tone became solemn:

"Advisor, if he's really the 'master of the hammer', maybe we'll need the Hulk's powers."

"Let's see, Dr. Banner can control it."

As Oakes spoke, the commotion caused by the intruders was close to the center, but a particularly capable operator had already entangled with him and hit him outside the passage.

"Advisor Oakes, this intruder, although his skills seem to be extremely well trained, should still not be beyond the realm of humans."

"Indeed, he is 'now' and acts like an 'ordinary person' who is stronger."

Oakes sensed the breath of life of the crown prince of Asgard and shook his head slightly:

"But Coulson, although his breath of life is ordinary, it is indeed the same person as the breath left on the hammer."

"So he's really not an earthling......"

Coulson sighed:

"I'm starting to wonder what such an 'ordinary person' can become after getting the hammer."

"Don't worry, there's me and Banner."

"Okay."

As he spoke, the mud-covered Thor had defeated the last of his "enemies" and managed to reach Thor's hammer.

With a bright smile of relief, he reached out and grabbed the handle of the hammer—

Nothing happened.

Under the nervous vigilance of the agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., no matter how hard he tried, he could not shake his weapon in the slightest.

"Why ——!!!"

Unwillingness, pain, doubt, remorse......

All kinds of complex emotions are entangled in this roar of looking up to the sky, which makes people want to ask, what has this person experienced?

Dr. Banner pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose, "I have a feeling that this must be a sad person." ”

Barton still hasn't given up on Sol: "I think I'm starting to like this guy. ”

But Oakes didn't have those ideas.

"Why do aliens all speak English?"

"What?"

Coulson took a breath, soaking in the solemn scene, and he was almost broken by Mr. Advisor's words.

Thor fell to his knees in a dejected manner, letting the rain wash over his body.

There was thunder in the sky, and his eyes were glazed over, and he could no longer utter a word.

Coulson watched all this in silence, and finally raised the walkie-talkie in his hand:

"Alright, the show is over, and the ground forces are dispatched."
