Chapter 125: No Sacrifice
Except for Natasha, who is assisting Barton in completely eliminating the after-effects of being mind-controlled, the other Avengers are gathered in the control room.
Even Dr. Banner was involved in the interrogation, and the Helicarrier could not fall, and the repair of the communication and navigation systems, as well as the restart of Engine One, would be left to the regrouped S.H.I.E.L.D. technicians.
Now that the coordinate data is lost, Banner, who was supposed to see the coordinates, is also a beat slower because of Oakes's defensive movements, and the instruments and data are damaged, and now in addition to Loki, the Avengers have no time to measure the target again.
Oakes sensed that a target similar to the aura of the Psychic Scepter appeared on the periphery, so he guessed that it was Hawkeye who had come to hijack the plane, and made a defense in advance.
"I'm sorry, because of my influence, Bruce didn't get to see the key data, and all this time of hard work was in vain."
Oakes stood at the conference table, having removed his robes and placed the Psychic Scepter on the table.
Thor himself pressed Loki, and he looked at everyone with a relaxed smile:
"A few seconds...... It's just fate, isn't it?
Oakes, Druid, your perception is amazing, but in order to protect these guys, it will cause you to not be able to discover the location of the Cosmic Cube in time......"
He grinned slightly, looked around at the Avengers who were staring at him, and chuckled:
"For the sake of these heroes, a lot of people will be sacrificed, is it worth it?"
"Enough Loki!"
Steve stood up and looked around at the calm-looking crowd:
"A person like you will never be able to comprehend the consciousness of a man who is bent on doing good—
Oakes protects whoever he can, and you don't deserve to be compared to him, let alone accuse him! ”
"Well, while Oakes is a bit of a dark-bellied guy, he's undoubtedly a good guy — even better than me."
Tony rubbed his chin and waved his hand to signal Steve not to get excited:
"If nothing else, just controlling Banner's transformation has prevented your plot from succeeding—
Coordinates are not a problem, although there is no instrument, isn't there still you? ”
"I'm sorry, but I should have had a problem...... The quiet days that had preceded had made me lose my vigilance. ”
Banner rubbed his hands together and sighed:
"And, rather, it is our own egos that have caused the current situation.
If it hadn't been for the previous quarrel, maybe I would have been able to watch the data change at any time, at least remember the approximate range. ”
“……”
Thor looked at everyone and subconsciously took a few steps away from his bastard brother:
"Uh...... Actually, Loki used to be a good guy, but he was a little ...... before Some of them were stimulated, that's why they ......."
The more he spoke, the quieter he became, and finally he had to smile awkwardly:
"Okay, just ask, if he doesn't cooperate, I'll force him to cooperate."
Oakes raised an eyebrow, and although there was no sacrifice from Coulson, the Avengers were not at all in contact with each other as before.
Because of Oakes, they had all worked together before, or at least had a relationship with Oakes.
This avoids the need to force them together to form a team by the extreme means of "sacrifice".
Even Natasha and Barton, because of this battle, the abilities of the two mortal agents were affirmed by several people present.
"Finally, this step has been reached."
The corners of Oakes' mouth hooked up a slight smile, and he glanced at Coulson, who was standing at the entrance of the passage with folded hands, and the latter had a serious face, obviously such a serious loss made his usual signature smile disappear.
Although the meaning of "Avenger" is missing a layer of "revenge for the sacrificed Coulson", Oakes doesn't want Coulson to be resurrected with the corpse extract of the Kree people, and then his brain is abnormal.
After all, he doesn't know resurrection yet.
"Indeed, S.H.I.E.L.D. originally intended to build an arsenal of weapons with the Cosmic Rubik's Cube."
Nick Fury walked up to the Avengers with his arms crossed, and their eyes moved to him.
"But I never gave my best, because I was playing something more adventurous—
Project Avengers, now that you all know about it, your names are on that list.
Although you each have distinct personality traits, your own independent thinking, and you are not left behind in the field elite, I am glad to see that you can at least agree to the outside world for the same thing-
Even if it's the same for me. ”
No one spoke.
Nick Frey paused, turned and walked behind the group:
"There are wars that we ordinary people can't win no matter how hard we try—
So although this is an outdated concept, we still hope that when the world is facing a crisis, there are heroes who can stand up and carry the faith of ordinary people. ”
"Wow...... Good mobilization, these 'heroes' were moved by you, I can see it. ”
Loki once again began his words in an exaggerated tone:
"But what can you do now? Is there a meeting here, and with no communications, to meet the end times? ”
He showed his trademark evil smile:
"That's a pretty good ending—before it's on stage."
"Loki, you may have misunderstood something."
Oakes stood up, stepped forward, approached Loki, and looked at him seriously, still smiling gracefully, unscrupulously:
"We won't split the team because of your intrigues, we won't be unable to play because of your lack of cooperation, and we won't lose because of your powerful army."
He glanced at Thor, who had stepped aside, quietly thoughtful:
"You may have learned about true power, but have you ever thought about it...... Not! ”
"Oakes!"
"Bastard! Loki! ”
Everyone exclaimed, because the Psychic Scepter, which was still on the table just a moment ago, had disappeared, and it was now in Loki's hand, piercing Oakes's waist and abdomen!
"Bang bang bang!"
The gunshot rang out, and Nick Fury, who reacted the fastest, had already shot Loki, while Captain America, who had no weapons, ejected and was pounced on Loki, only to suddenly find that Nick Fury's bullets were all empty!
"It's phantom magic!"
Thor grabbed Thor's hammer, and he realized that Loki in front of Oakes and Loki behind him had disappeared!
"Hehehe......"
Loki had already appeared at the entrance of the passage, and the person he was holding in front of him was Coulson, who was guarding there!
"I'm the most ...... as Asgard Ahem, second-strongest mage, it's not for nothing, druid......"
He looked at the crowd with some rat throwers, and showed an undisguised sarcastic look:
"Your power has been exposed too much, druid, experience is the most important thing in battle for spellcasters......
And I have fifteen hundred years of spell casting experience. ”
Even the most ruthless secret service chief, Nick Fury, didn't shoot Coulson with him, because he understood that it wouldn't be useful to Loki at all.
But Coulson's eyes had turned black, and then blue—
Nick Fury has seen this process for the third time!
