Chapter Ninety-Six: Airborne
Over Mexico.
S.H.I.E.L.D. had already greeted the local government beforehand, so even if it did, there would be no problem driving directly into someone else's airspace.
At an altitude of 10,000 meters above the ground, Nick held a screen the size of a bowl and observed the situation around the meteorite.
"Report to the Director, all living things have been excluded from the meteorite belt for ten kilometers."
Inside the communicator, the meteorite detective reports to Nick.
"Professor Servig has been able to determine that there are signs of life activity inside the meteorite, and it is very likely that it is a living alien creature, so what is your opinion, Director?"
"Don't move yet, wait until I get there and make a decision."
Nick commanded.
These guys love to mess around, so he felt that he had to give them another wake-up call, otherwise Dr. Servig's temperament would probably get away with the meteorite before he came, and it would be too bad if he accidentally released some kind of messy creature when he came.
Originally, according to Nick's meaning, Dr. Servig only needed to be responsible for the research and development of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, and other activities were as little fun as possible.
However, this meteorite was related to the trace of aliens, which greatly aroused Dr. Selvig's curiosity, so he directly ran over without informing Nick in advance, and came faster than Nick.
Nick can't say anything about this, he can't rush back to others, right?
Compared to him, Banner seemed to be much more honest and dutiful, and stayed alone at the base to continue the experimental development of weapons.
But how does Nick feel that Dr. Banner deliberately did not come with Dr. Servig.
With that guy's personality, I'm afraid he will take advantage of Dr. Servig's absence to make some dangerous moves.
For example, increasing the energy output power of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube?
Banner wanted to do this very much, Dr. Servig had been against it before, so Banner had no idea what to do, and now as soon as Dr. Servig left, Banner could show his strength.
Now Nick just wants that neither of those two guys will make trouble for himself, and that it's best that nothing goes wrong on either side.
"Connect me with Agent Barton." Nick said suddenly.
"Okay Director."
Soon Patton's voice came from the communicator: "What's the matter, Director?" Didn't you go to Mexico? Barton asked.
"It's nothing, I just wanted to ask you, how is Dr. Banner's doing?" Nick asked.
"Okay, I didn't do anything too much for six hours after Dr. Servig left, etc... Boom!"
Nick only felt like his ears were about to explode, the sound of something exploding on Patton's side.
"Agent Patton? Agent Patton? Your side has been attacked by the enemy?! ”
Nick immediately thought of this possibility, because there was not just one explosion, but several more sounds, otherwise his ears would not hurt so much, and just as Nick wanted to give them reinforcements, Barton's voice came again.
"If it's not the director of the enemy attack, how can an outsider enter our enemy?" Barton smiled, accompanied by a few coughs, as if choking on something.
Only waiting for the communicator to hear Hawkeye Barton's roaring voice: "Bruce Banner, if you dare to take advantage of Dr. Servig's absence to mess around like this, be careful that I go to the director to beat your little report!"
"Uh," Nick paused, and called out softly, "Agent Patton?" ”
"No... It's okay Director, it's just that Dr. Banner just had something wrong with his experiment and accidentally exploded. Before Barton could finish his sentence, Nick heard another explosion.
"I'm sorry Director, I may have to cut off the communication first, because Dr. Banner's side seems to be on fire again, and you don't want to see him turn into a big green monster running around the lab, right?"
"I see, you go first."
Nick's face darkened, and he voluntarily hung up the communicator.
Then, he rubbed his head and sighed dullly.
It seems that we have to quickly settle the matter here, and then send Dr. Cervig back, Dr. Servig will not be there for two days, and I'm afraid Banner will be able to blow up the entire experimental base directly.
"There's a long way to go."
Nick rubbed his temples, then looked at Rogers, who was sitting in front of him, a little distracted.
"What's wrong, Captain? Are you still thinking about the hammer before? Nick saw at a glance what Rogers was in a daze and took the initiative to ask.
"Yes, Director." Rogers, who was still distracted, was called by Nick, and instantly came back to his senses, looked at Nick, smiled bitterly, and said.
"This is the first time I've felt that power, it's very subtle, there is an indescribable feeling, maybe it's because I haven't read any books, and I can't describe it." Rogers smiled wryly.
"I understand, I understand." Nick looked at Rogers and smiled, "Find a chance for me to ask Thor to lend you the hammer one more time?" That power is an existence that many people dream of, only those who are approved by the hammer can control him, Thor is one, obviously, you are too. ”
"I'd better forget it." Rogers shook his head, he remembered the grief-stricken image of Saul at the time, as if his wife had been robbed.
"Saul doesn't seem to like people touching his things, so let's not embarrass him." Rogers said, "What's more, I use my shield quite handily." ”
"Okay."
Nick didn't say anything more, and couldn't help laughing.
At the beginning, who said that he couldn't pick up Mjörnier, but in fact, when he was fighting Thanos, he didn't even bring the same set of moves.
Thundered!
The plane suddenly shuddered violently, a sign before the descent.
Nick and Rogers hurriedly fastened their seat belts, and with a roar, the plane landed smoothly on the ground.
"Here we are."
After the plane stabilized, Nick unbuckled his seat belt and stood up from his seat, glanced at Rogers opposite, and then came to the cabin door, and after pressing the switch, a wave of air hit and blew Nick's trench coat hunting.
With the landing of the gate, Nick also saw the people who had been waiting outside for a long time.
These were the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents who rushed over as soon as the meteorite appeared.
If it weren't for the fact that they came fast enough, I am afraid it would not have been their turn to take over the meteorite in the first place.
"Director, you're here!"
Dr. Servig, who was the leader, was very happy to see Nick.
"Let's talk about the old things later, take me to see the meteorite first."
Nick now just wants to solve the problem of meteorites first.
