A new day.

Luke, as usual, sat in his office, reading the latest Washington Daily.

into the eyes.

It is a peaceful scene of Cathay Pacific peace.

What a Cherita invasion, not even a shadow was seen.

Am I getting the timing wrong?

Lu Ke, who put down the newspaper in his hand, couldn't help but doubt it in his heart.

That's when it happened.

The phone rings.

Lu Ke raised his eyebrows, grabbed the phone, and looked at the call from Sever, and couldn't help but show a look of disappointment in his eyes.

He thought it was Hill's call for help.

However, although the call was not from Hill, Seifer's call could not be delayed.

"Hey ......"

"Help me!"

"Bang!"

With a sudden gust of wind, Luke, who had been in his position for a long time, had already disappeared in place.

All that was left was the phone that Luke had just grabbed in his hand, which fell from mid-air in isolation and helplessness, and then smashed to the floor.

Washington.

Base Zero.

"Poof!"

"Ahem, ahem."

With the flickering arc of electricity and the constant coughing sound coming from all corners, Base Zero, which was originally as bright as day, was now as if it had experienced a war, countless ruins and the rising fog.

Suddenly.

One of the ruins shook suddenly.

The next second.

Ciel's arm reached out from the rubble, and then, with a thud, pushed aside the stone that had been crushed on it, and saved himself from the rubble.

Natasha, who was not far away, also rescued herself from the rubble.

"Greasy Shet!"

After Natasha stood firm on the ruins, looking at the calm ten minutes ago, but now it was the base that had become ruins, she couldn't help but gasp, and then squinted her eyes, trying to find a survivor around the constantly flickering arc: "Is there anyone?" ”

As the words fell.

Weak cries for help rang out from all corners of the ruins.

Ciel and Natasha glanced at each other, and hurriedly ran to the nearest voice, cooperating with each other to save the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents buried in the rubble.

It's like a gourd baby saving grandpa, and by the time there are enough people and no need for Hill's help, the time has already passed, and almost ten minutes have passed.

At the same time as it.

The S.H.I.E.L.D. agents who received the alarm signal from Base Zero also rushed over one after another at this moment.

"Commander."

"Your forehead."

The assistant ran to Hill with an anxious face, looked at Hill's forehead with a wound, and hurriedly wanted to bandage it first.

After all, such a serious injury, if you don't bandage it quickly, the blood will stop bleeding later.

Hill waved his hand to stop the assistant from doing so.

"Cell phone."

"Ahh

"Cell phone."

Since the beginning of the expansion, Base Zero has had strict rules, and no one entering Base Zero is allowed to bring any communication equipment in.

Even Hill is no exception.

As soon as he came to power, he made drastic changes and reformed the Aegis almost from the inside out, and naturally he would follow the rules he had set.

After Hill got the phone from his assistant's hand, he immediately called the headquarters of Sanfei and gave his first order after the attack: "Item Zero is stolen." ”

Yes.

This place is called Base Zero, and naturally, the Zero item refers to the Cosmic Rubik's Cube.

Just now.

When the fifty-sixth experiment of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube was carried out at Base Zero, it had been a smooth experiment since the first time, but in this experiment, something went wrong.

According to previous experiments, the Cosmic Cube will open a portal to a corner of the universe, or a planet.

Then Base Zero will send an advance team to set off first to see what is going on on the other side of the portal.

Base Zero, that's how it was prepared here.

Outcome......

This time, before they could get there, a guy with a helmet with antlers and a scepter appeared directly from the portal.

Just when everyone was still stunned, this guy who suddenly appeared took the lead.

The bullets couldn't break through his body's defenses at all, and the first strike was strong, and the scepter that would destroy the light caught them off guard.

The final result was that Base Zero was turned into ruins by this guy, crushing Ciel and others under the ruins, and this guy even picked up the Cosmic Cube and ran out.

"Commander."

"Locate Nick Fury."

Hill ignored the shock caused by the loss of item zero to the three flying side: "Director Nick Fury is tracking down the robbers and sending three emergency response teams to quickly recover item zero. ”

Sanfei reacted one after another.

One of the Seal Rapid Reaction Forces, led by Crossbones, immediately took up its post, and after the fountain pool at the entrance of the Sanfei Decoration expanded to both sides, the Aegis plane instantly rose into the air and tracked down Nick Fury on the signal positioning.

The picture of the Aegis satellite also appeared on the big screen in the return of the somewhat disgraced Hill to the three flying accessories.

"Why is it so slow?"

"Commander, the signal is infected, and we have called in three Aegis satellites to barely maintain the signal input."

“……”

Hill just asked casually, not intending to listen to their explanation, and looked intently at the vehicle on the big screen that was tracking the interstate: "Have you found out who the attacker is?" ”

"Still investigating."

"Whew."

Hill crossed his hands on his hips and stared at the big screen.

That's when it happened.

Boom.

After a flash of blue light from the car in front, the picture on the big screen turned into snowflakes in an instant.

Hill raised an eyebrow.

"What's going on?"

"The signal is being interfered with."

"Shet, come over with another satellite."

"It's being done."

"It's connected."

“……”

The picture on the big screen reappears.

But......

The vehicle had stopped, and even Nick Fury had stepped out of the car behind him.

Nick Fury walked up to the stalled vehicle in front of him, glanced at the picture inside the vehicle, and then, as if looking at the Aegis satellite, pressed his headset and transmitted the sound to the headquarters of the Three Flying Decorations.

"They're gone."

"Repeat, they're missing."

With Nick Fury's words, one of the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents hurriedly stepped aside and transmitted the footage from the vehicle on the scene to the big screen.

into the eyes.

The car lit up, empty, and there was no one in it.

Seeing this picture, the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents in Sanfei's ornament couldn't help but turn their heads and set their eyes on their commander.

Maria Hill looked at the empty car on the big screen, and Nick Fury, who was standing next to the car, narrowed her eyes and didn't speak.

The theft of the Cosmic Cube is a big deal.

Moreover, Base Zero is in the Washington Special Administrative Region, and if there is an explosion, it is impossible to hide it.

As soon as Alexander Pierce received the news, he rushed to Sanfei to understand the situation.

"Have you figured out the identity of the attacker?"

“……”

Hill, who was in the conference room, and Nick Fury, who had already returned, looked at each other after hearing this, and then looked at Alexander Pierce who came in.

The latter looked at the expressions of the two and was slightly stunned.

"What's the situation?"

"Found out."

Hill was the first to speak up, pushing the information in his hand to Alexander Pierce.

Alexander Pierce looked at Hill, who didn't seem to be very interested, and after looking at Nick Fury, who had a dark face, he opened the information in his hand.

After a while.

He took a deep breath, closed the information with a blank face, and then looked up at Hill and Nick Fury, "I'm afraid you're not kidding me." ”

Hill shook his head, "I'm sorry, sir, but this wasn't a joke. ”

Nick Fury said in a deep voice: "His face data matches the face in the Texas incident the year before." ”

Alexander Pierce opened his mouth and looked at the two of them, with a hint of disbelief in his tone: "So, you are telling me that the person who attacked us is a god, Loki, the god of lies in Norse mythology and legends, and the younger brother of the thunder god Thor?" ”

Hill didn't speak.

Nick Fury nodded directly, "Yes, it's him." ”

Alexander Pierce's face darkened directly, snapped, and slapped his palm on the data: "This answer is not funny. ”

Nick Fury was expressionless: "But it's true. ”

The man who attacked them was Loki.

Loki, the god of lies in Norse mythology, is the younger brother of the god of thunder.

Meantime.

It was also Loki, the suspect who snatched their cosmic cube from Base Zero, in their hands.

Alexander Pierce's eyebrows jumped, first at Hill, then his eyes fell on Nick Fury, and he couldn't help but smile: "You can explain it to the Security Council yourself." ”

Federal tradition, in the event of an accident, shake the pot first.

Alexander Pierce originally wanted to dump the pot on Hill, but after thinking about it, it wasn't good.

If Hill hadn't had a leg with Luke, he would have been dumped, and Alexander Pierce didn't think he could control Hill anyway.

But for now.

Hill and Luke have a leg, which means something, their own family.

Own family, don't pit your own family.

And......

Hill also did not agree to the use of the Cosmic Cube for large-scale experiments at the beginning, but the Security Council agreed.

But the Security Council certainly can't take the blame, and it just so happens that Nick Fury is just right.

And the skin tone is also right.

It's a shame.

It doesn't matter what pot it is, anyway, no matter what pot it is, the bottom of the pot is the same color, which also matches Nick Fury's skin tone.

So!

"Ten minutes."

"Security Council Virtual Meeting."

"Think about how to explain it to the Security Council."

Alexander Pierce said to Nick Fury with a blank face.
