Chapter 5: The Divine Light Stick
I have to admit that the efficiency of S.H.I.E.L.D. is still much higher than that of its counterparts in the United States. Just after lunch, Dr. Jenma Simmons from the medical department brought Don's medical report, and Nick Fury was discussing with Agent Maria Hill about the newly released Godzilla annihilation plan - Operation Emperor, Fury himself gave this resounding name, hoping that it could achieve unprecedented success like his cousin.
However, perhaps because of the providence in the dark, the emperor fell into the same situation as his cousin from the beginning, that is, the fate is uncertain, and the success or failure is unpredictable. The battle planning room worked hard, and it couldn't increase the success rate of the operation to more than 50%, of course, this can't be blamed on them, it's really a tight time, the task is heavy and difficult, and the operation to annihilate the monster has been carried out several times, and it has paid a huge price.
Fury is not Captain America, so he can't force a five-five, so he has to pinch his nose and give them more time to gather intelligence to refine the plan, and on the other hand, he turns his attention back to the Titan...... Ultraman Tiga, at least he has a lot of means to deal with children.
S.H.I.E.L.D.'s medical technology is the best in the world, and this task was personally explained by the director, so the medical examination report brought by Zhenma Simmons is more than two pages and bound into a book. Nick Fury took it and only opened it and glanced at the title page, and had no hope of reading it at all.
"Tell me succinctly, won't you?" This is the art of leadership.
Zhenma Simmons shook her head and replied weakly: "Gender male, height 175cm, weight 70kg, bone age test result is about 20 years old, error will not exceed one year old, type O blood, normal blood test, no unknown components, no abnormalities in surgery, normal electrocardiogram, chest X-ray detection, no infectious diseases, normal male hormone secretion......"
"Stop." Fury interrupted her chanting and casting, and asked directly: "I don't want a premarital medical examination, just tell me what is abnormal, is he an earthling?" ”
"100% yes." Dr. Jenma Simmons was remarkably positive, "Oh, by the way, there are some data anomalies here. ”
Fury immediately came to the spirit, and I knew it!
"His blood pressure and blood lipids are a little high, he has been obviously lacking in sleep recently, his mental state is not very good, he seems to have suffered a lot of pressure, and medically believes that his body is currently in a sub-healthy state and needs to be well regulated."
He couldn't help but scold, this Chinese kid disappointed him too much.
At this time, the communicator came with good news from the laboratory, and they had made significant progress in their research on the mysterious short stick.
Nick Fury clenched his fists, and his heart was still a little excited, which called the east is not bright and the west is bright, and sent Jenma Simmons, who came to the door of the laboratory with Hill, and Agent Coulson waited outside the door for a long time, and standing next to him was Dr. Eric Cervig, an astrophysicist, a balding old man, and now one of the leaders of the Pegasus Project.
"Why is he here?" Fury was very unhappy, this person was a genius scientist, but not even a supernumerary member of S.H.I.E.L.D., their cooperative relationship should be limited to the Pegasus Project, one person is responsible for one thing, and it must not be exceeded, this is the normal practice of the agent world, he doesn't believe that Coulson will not understand this truth.
"The stones of other mountains can be used to attack jade." Coulson shrugged his shoulders and said.
Fury shook his head and said, "The jade on this mountain, I want to open it myself." ”
"No, it's the Pegasus project that's having trouble with it, and Dr. Servig desperately needs a new stimulus to open up his mind. Sir, there seems to be a loophole in your authority hierarchy, and the secrecy level of this matter has not been raised. ”
Fury then remembered that it seemed that this was indeed the case, but he would never admit it.
"I did it on purpose, it's not a big deal."
"No, no, no, this thing is amazing." Dr. Servig looked excited, rubbing his hands back and forth, and began to eagerly analyze his findings with the crowd: "This short stick, it is made of materials from the earth, but it has a level of technology beyond our imagination, and in a way, it is the same level of item as that Rubik's Cube. ”
Nick Fury was shocked when he heard this, and all the previous unpleasantness was immediately forgotten, "So it can also make weapons...... To deal with monsters? ”
"This ......" Dr. Servig was embarrassed, he is a scientist, and the experimental facts can only tell the truth: "The Rubik's Cube can release high-level cosmic energy, but this thing, it is not released, but absorbs ......"
"Absorb what?"
"Light, that is, electromagnetic waves, especially light in the visible band. It has an extremely efficient light energy conversion mechanism inside it, which is far beyond human comprehension, and if we can really understand how it works, oh my God, I can't imagine what we can do. ”
"And what the hell is it capable of?" Fury wasn't as excited as Dr. Servig, in fact he was a pragmatist, especially at this critical juncture.
The look of excitement on Dr. Servig's face froze and he smiled awkwardly, "This...... Further research is needed, I ......"
"You know that the Pegasus Project is centered on your work, Dr. Servig?" Fury calmly reminded him.
"Yes, yes." Servig sneered.
"I'll find someone else to take care of this project, thank you for your work, doctor."
"Yes." Dr. Servig lowered his head, not daring to say anything more, for fear that he would also be deprived of another job. What a pity, I was born before I was born, I am old, no, no, no, the Rubik's Cube is actually very fun, forgive me for being an old guy, physicists like the new and hate the old.
Fury walked into the heavily guarded laboratory, Hill and Coulson followed, and when Servig saw that no one was talking, he also grabbed the team's little tail and followed, but Fury did not chase him away.
The mysterious short stick was clamped on the shelf at this time, placed in a square transparent glass cover, there is no doubt that it enjoyed the care of the stars and the moon, surrounded by all kinds of high-tech analytical instruments, like a group of hungry strong men, to clean up the beautiful women in front of them.
Fury's one eye stared at it for a long time, and only saw a handmade product with fine workmanship, beyond human technology, where is it?
"Is that a button?" He suddenly reached out and asked, pointing to the short stick.
"Yes." The scientific and technological personnel on the side replied.
"What can it do?"
"Uh...... This one is not clear, we have not experimented yet. ”
"Why not experiment?"
"Objects of unknown origin should be handled with caution so as not to cause any unintended and irreversible consequences."
"You think it's a grenade tab, don't you? One pull blew us all up. Fury asked, looking at him.
"It's not good, the experiment is risky."
"Sometimes, we have to take some risks, especially for the sake of world peace, and that's our job," Fury taught. You know, this thing is probably a child's toy, or a strange-looking flashlight, and I wouldn't believe that the kid would have some super bomb in his hand and hold it tightly in his chest. ”
"Better not to, Director Fury." Dr. Servig advised.
"Why?"
"If it can absorb light energy and store it, then press the switch and what it will release ......"
At this time, the operator had already manipulated the mechanical arm to press the button on the short stick, and the next moment the short stick opened its wings, and then a violent burst of bright light burst out, almost blinding everyone's eyes.
“…… Most likely, it's also light. The second half of Dr. Servig's sentence was a bit belated.
It took a long time for everyone present to react, and Nick Fury's first reaction was to ask his men, "Is there any radiation anomaly?" "He doesn't want to be careless, let the high-level of S.H.I.E.L.D., including him, follow in the footsteps of a certain unlucky doctor, physical experiments are indeed risky, don't do it nonsense for laymen!
"No, it's just a bright light." The technicians quickly checked the instrument.
"Other anomalies?"
"No, sir."
Everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Fury nodded, looking like he had expected it, and said lightly: "A strong flashlight, a very effective weapon." ”
At this moment, the red alarm lights of the entire laboratory suddenly turned on, reflecting everyone's faces red, and the terrible alarm sound echoed throughout the laboratory.
Nick Fury immediately became nervous, grabbed Coulson's arm, leaned closer to his face and asked, "Am I green?" ”
"Didn't find out, sir!" Coulson replied loudly.
"Well, you don't have either." Fury calmed down and asked the crowd, "What the hell is going on?" ”
Hill had already learned about the situation through the communicator at this time, and her face didn't look very good.
"It's not the alarm in this lab, sir, it's the automatic alarm system at headquarters, we've been targeted by a malicious remote attack, triggering the alarm!"
"Nonsense, is there any malice in the attack?" Fury then asked: "Is it a long-range missile, where did it come from, has our active defense system been activated?" ”
"...... from Easter Island in the South Pacific"
Hill calmly listened to the information in his ear, and then said it word by word to the people present, from the time she said the name of Easter Island, Fury's mind had automatically appeared relevant information about this island, which country's overseas base was here, it seemed to be ...... Chile?
“…… Flying monster Melba. ”
Everyone looked at each other, both shocked and frightened, mixed with a hint of incredulity, it should be ...... No way?
"There's a chance it'll turn." Fury speculated.
"It's in a straight direction, it's getting faster and faster, and it's expected to reach the skies over Washington in thirty minutes!" Hill relayed the latest intelligence from the surveillance department, mercilessly shattering his illusions.
At this moment, the whole building suddenly began to shake violently, and everyone was almost unstable on their feet, tables, chairs, and benches moved around, and experimental instruments were spilled on the ground.
"Earthquake?"
"Nope." Hill's hand covered her ears, her face turned pale, and she spat out a shocking news from her mouth: "It's the monster Gorzan, it came out of the ground!" ”
"Isn't it...... Well? "Fury, as a seasoned agent, knows the legendary Murphy's Law.
"The coordinates of the intersection of the moving routes of Gorzan and Melba are 38N53'33.78", 77S3'38.91"."
"Sounds so close to here." Fury's knowledge of geography is still very solid.
"These are the coordinates of the Triple Wing Building, sir."
