Chapter 201: The battle always comes so suddenly
Three hours after Pierce and Nick left with a 10-pound, 4.5-kilogram sample of crystals, Luke received an urgent message from Nick.
"Help!"
……
Time Forward.
Pierce and Nick were in the Quint and exchanged ideas in the cabin on how to do the verification.
Nick's intention was to bring it back to S.H.I.E.L.D. for verification. Prior to Attillan, S.H.I.E.L.D. had dealt with a certain Inhuman race in the Atrium, though most of them had a bad opinion of the authorities, and even harbored deep fear and hatred. Nick thinks he can use that Inhuman race as a verifier.
All you need to do is inform each other of the news of Attilan and Black Bolt, and show and verify the power of the crystallization by the way.
Pierce had a different opinion. He agrees with Nick's cautious intention to find a weak one to verify the technology first, and that's fine. He was happy to do the same before. But now? Not to mention that Whitehall, who knows the Inhumans best, is parasitized and controlled by the unknown, and the other party may cause him some huge trouble at any time. The time it takes to find the Inhuman race called the Afterlife alone is not what Pierce wants.
He wants to solve this trouble as soon as possible while things are still under control!
Why did he uncharacteristically take Nick to Luke for technical assistance? It is because Luke's technology is indeed quite powerful and reliable, and the opponent can always quickly and accurately create and provide corresponding powerful equipment according to the needs of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Now that the reversal crystallized, Pierce didn't want to waste any more time. He was now bent on verifying the effect of the reversal crystallization as soon as possible, and if the effect was indeed as Luke said, then he would not hesitate to let people take the crystals to kill the robed women and the Inhuman army that Whitehall had transformed and spawned.
"Don't be so troublesome, don't we have a migrated Inhuman race around us?" Pierce turned his attention to the Black Bolt King and them.
"Do you mean the Black Bolt King from Attillan?" Nick understood Pierce's words. He doesn't have any moral or conscientious obstacles, to put it mildly, even people on the same planet, when he needs to make a choice, he can be ruthless. Not to mention that Black Bolt King is still an outsider.
Although Nick helped them find a place to stay, it didn't mean that Nick accepted each other in his heart and regarded them as his own. He's just out of factors like the convenience of surveillance.
I believe that even if it is the captain, if the Black Bolt King's Inhumans reveal any bad actions or behaviors, he will not turn a blind eye. Not to mention his own bottom line, with his current source of strength and position, it is determined that most of the time, he sits on the side of his ass.
"yes. Let's pay them a visit and bring some supplies. Pierce knew exactly what kind of person Nick was, so he believed that with his own proposal, he would agree.
So the two of them sorted out the arrangements, and after notifying the Black Bolt King, the two went to the temporary residence of the Black Bolt King with the supplies and reversal crystals in their hearts.
And at this time, the hive, with the help of the Malik family, in the name of a certain official department, came to the camp one step ahead of Pierce and them.
Therefore, when the two sides converged, they stared at each other for a moment, and they couldn't tell who made the first move, the Inhumans brought by the Hive, and the dead soldiers and warriors cultivated by the Malik family, and the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents Ping Pong fought together.
During the whole process, the Black Bolt King and his spokesperson, Queen Medusa, were in a daze, they didn't know at all, these two were all official people, why they suddenly took out their weapons and fought together.
Black Bolt and Medusa glanced at each other, their eyes full of embarrassment, they just wanted to accumulate strength in peace, survive well, and then recapture Attillan. But I don't want to be inexplicably forced to participate in the battle of the Atrium people.
Faced with the two parties calling for him to join, and accusing the other party of being fake, the Black Bolt King rolled his eyes in his heart. In terms of identity, Nick Fury, who has had a relationship with him, still has some trust. If you had to choose one of the two parties, it would be Nick. After all, they have a close cooperation with S.H.I.E.L.D., and he has agreed to join a superhero organization with Medusa to contribute to the safety and stability of the atrium.
"Turn on the Crystallization Activator!" Pierce, clad in an energy suit, hissed and shouted in a sea of fire summoned by an Inhuman. He is really grateful for the Soul Ring made by Luke now, although it is a production version, it is extremely useful in saving his life! At least now he's been spared two deaths.
The range of abilities of the Inhumans on the other side is too wide, and without preparation, the manpower they brought has already begun to take casualties!
It is true that S.H.I.E.L.D. has powerful equipment such as the Psychic Ring and the Beast series produced by Hyperion, and even has a special version of the Werewolf and Bloodline Transformation Potions, but these equipment cannot be fully popularized by every S.H.I.E.L.D. field agent now. In that case, Nick and his S.H.I.E.L.D. will not only be in debt, but can directly consider bankruptcy and liquidation.
Therefore, the group of people they brought over had some elite agents equipped with Hyperion products, but there were also a large number of ordinary agents who still used the original S.H.I.E.L.D. equipment.
Nick and Pierce, who were also protected by energy suits, each rushed out of the sea of fire with a metal box, and the two quickly entered the passwords and fingerprints in their memories in order, and opened the metal safe in their hands, revealing the perfectly cut reversed crystals inside, as well as two metal canes like scepters.
"Quick!" Pierce pulled out the cane from the metal case, pulled the lock on it, and reached out to Nick. Nick picked up a piece of the reversal crystal, the energy coat was like rubber, pulled out a long energy arm, and handed the crystal held in the palm of the energy hand to Pierce.
Pierce desperately recalled in his mind the instructions that Luke had given them on how to use the cane, and pressed the crystal to the lock from memory, pressing the mechanism to jam it firmly. Then he pressed the activating device of the cane, and after counting a few numbers in his mind, he threw it in the direction where the Inhuman was.
Bang!
The azure shock wave rushed towards the makeshift camp like a raging wind. The scorching sea of fire was directly blown away under the shock wave. Along with it, there are many strange abilities of Inhumans, which also seem to have failed in an instant. Many Inhumans are still maintaining the action of ability output, and while realizing that their ability is failing, some of them are still standing in place at a loss and repeating it several times.
"Counterattack!"
Pierce was overjoyed to see this scene! As long as the Inhumans over there lose their abilities, the pressure on their side will be greatly reduced, and there will be no threat at all.
After all, the reversal crystallization is only aimed at the Inhuman genes of the Inhuman race. It doesn't have much effect on Hyperion equipment such as the Psychic Ring, and it belongs to the blacklist and whitelist.
At the same time, he finally understood why Nick complained that Luke's technical support was black-hearted, and Heblenn's equipment was too expensive, and he had to rush to the other party to place an order every time.
Technology and equipment are expensive, but its effect is really powerful! It's a way to solve troubles with a single shot!
The affected Black Bolt King and other Attilan Inhumans have also discovered their own anomalies. For example, as the bodyguard of the Black Bolt King, the feet of his body have been transformed into hooves similar to cow hooves, and Gorgon, who can create powerful shock waves by stepping on the ground, found that he had transformed since his awakening and reverted into the human form before his awakening. His hooves degenerate into human feet again. At this moment, he was barefoot, stepping on the ground a few times, with a shocked and dazed expression.
"What happened?" Medusa found that she couldn't control the hair she had just grown. The locktooth dog next to his sister Crystal shook its huge head, indicating that he had also lost the ability to teleport.
Everyone turned their gaze to the Black Bolt King, each with some kind of speculation in their eyes.
"I don't know." Under the gaze of everyone, the Black Bolt King smacked his lips twice, but still opened his mouth.
There was no rush of energy, no damage caused by powerful sound waves, everything was calm. It's like he's never had a terrifyingly destructive ability.
"Your abilities are no longer valid?" Medusa looked at her husband, Black Bolt, in astonishment. Black Bolt has always existed as the most powerful final weapon on their side, and as long as his abilities are still there, no one can ever ignore the Black Bolt King's hole card. Therefore, no matter how bad the situation is, as long as the Black Bolt King is still there, they will always have the confidence that they are the ultimate winners!
But today, there is a gap in that confidence.
Black Bolt King's abilities are still strong, and they still believe in him as much as they did before, believing in his destructive power and lethality. But this ability and trust are no longer as invincible and firm as they used to be.
Vast swaths of the Inhuman army fell, including those brought by the Malik family, all wearing energy suits, and the elite agents who had opened the line had no power to resist.
Nick's side instantly gained the absolute upper hand from the previous confrontation situation. It's not a headwind, but if there is no accident, it can be said that the dust has settled.
Seeing strange Inhumans fall one by one, the Black Bolt King and the others showed a touch of unbearability in their eyes, they didn't expect that there would be a group of Inhumans with such a high level of awakening on this planet.
Medusa gently took her husband's hand and shook her head at him. Signal him not to meddle and get involved. Medusa doesn't have that much mercy for these strange aliens, they are still in a state of being sent to the fence, and they need the help of Nick on the other side.
A man hiding under a black cloak finally sighed faintly and lifted his cloak, revealing an octopus-like monster face.
Nick and Pierce, who were not far away, saw this abnormal black-robed man, and the sixth sense of crisis in their hearts exploded almost instantly, and they frantically reported to them!
It's like a herbivore facing a top-tier hunter.
Rough!
Nick and Pierce couldn't help but burst into two foul words in unison. Nick didn't expect that there was an alien here who could not be affected by the reversal crystal, and still maintain the appearance of alienation, which was still very dangerous to look at.
Pierce, on the other hand, saw the first time he thought of the god that the robed woman of the Malik family had chanted repeatedly.
"Warning, warning! There is a high energy level of energy. ”
Not only the rings on Nick and Pierce began to warn, but the Holy of Holies in the metropolis also sounded the corresponding alarm.
The hive's body began to swell violently, and soon the cloak on his body was shattered. In the blink of an eye, he had swelled from the size of a normal person to a huge monster with a height of more than ten meters and dense tentacles!
The monster let out a sharp spiritual roar, and everyone present held their heads and lowered their heads at the same time, and the people with strong wills and the protection of the soul ring were weakly affected, but their heads hurt, and they quickly broke free and regained their ability to think. But without the protection of the soul ring, red blood flowed from the mouth and nose, and the spiritual will was traumatized in varying degrees of severity.
The entire huge body of the huge octopus monster began to emit strong hallucinogenic hormones, and the skin of the bloated and huge body appeared, and the pattern of a human face appeared.
The dense tentacles stretched out, as if a huge brown curtain was extending towards the surroundings, and the light in front of everyone's eyes dimmed for a moment. The tentacles roll up the agents who have lost their resistance, and then a swarm of tiny bugs will be squeezed out of the skin of the tentacles, and they will climb along the tentacles to the restrained agents and crawl into the mouths of the opponents. The agents who were restrained throughout the process were unconscious, and even had some kind of strange smile on their faces, as if they were dreaming about something.
This strange scene makes the scalp of a sober person tingle.
In the face of such an unconventional enemy, Nick and Pierce both have the idea of summoning reinforcements while dodging the entanglement of tentacles with the help of rings. Nick instantly sent a distress signal to both the Mage King and Luke through the ring. Only they have the ability to arrive in an instant and provide timely support.
Otherwise, summon the army or the Avengers, and wait for them to come, or they will already be reduced to the rations of that monster's mouth.
A revolving door opened in the surrounding area, and the mage king who stepped out couldn't help but grin and let go when he saw the octopus-like monster whose body had swelled to the size of a small mountain.
It's not a dimensional demon god invasion, and I don't feel that kind of extremely dangerous high-dimensional power, it's good!
The sky lit up a bit.
A brilliant pillar of light fell from the sky and struck the octopus-like monster with precision.
Seeing this pillar of light, the mage king silently recited a word of envy, jealousy and hatred in his heart.
"!"
