American Comics: The Law of Strength

Chapter 156



New York City, another rainy day.

Since entering August, New York has also entered the rainy season, and a dull thunder has sounded, and heavy rain has poured down.

A car sped by on the waterlogged road, and then stopped at the door of the S.H.I.E.L.D. building with a "creak".

Before the car stopped, Agent Hill had already stepped down from the car quickly, and she rushed to the gate of S.H.I.E.L.D., and a lot of mud splashed on her smart suit trousers.

Since the small plan that should have tested the Hulk Hulk's ability was played, S.H.I.E.L.D. has been completely busy in order to deal with the aftermath of this incident, almost everyone looks in a hurry, and almost can't even squeeze out the effort to go to the toilet, and Hilter is naturally no exception.

In the past few days after the incident, she was almost busy, eager to split one person into eight, she kept moving between hospitals and various government departments and organizations, and today she finally brought back a good news that was not good news.

And when she just came to the gate to open the door, Phil Coulson, who was preparing to go out of the task, also happened to rush out of the gate, and the two almost collided.

However, both were agile senior agents, and they tacitly tilted their bodies in different directions to avoid the impact.

"Out on a mission?"

Hill walked directly into the building after dodging the impact, while not forgetting to care about the recent situation of his old colleagues.

Phil Coulson, on the other hand, turned his head and revealed a somewhat shy smile.

"An atmospheric disturbance was detected over New Mexico, and the electromagnetic signal was so high that it didn't look like an ordinary aurora, I had to go and see it."

"You know what you just described is actually a bigger thunderstorm, right?"

Hearing Hill's ridicule, Phil Coulson also laughed.

"That's right, I'm just taking a business trip to take a vacation, don't forget to keep it secret for me."

Then he got into the car that Hill had just stepped out of to go to the airport, and the brief exchange of colleagues ended, and Hill walked into the building and went straight to Nick Fury's office.

At this time, Nick Fury is not idle, he is dealing with a new round of World Security Council meetings, and in front of him are several holographic projections with blurred faces sitting at his desk.

"You're really getting us into big trouble! Nick Fury! "

Although the holographic projection deliberately blurred the man's face, it was still possible to see how angry he was now from his excited tone and his exaggerated movements.

"A force of more than six hundred men was almost all killed! Several planes crashed, and the other losses were countless! Do you know how much trouble we will have? "

Faced with the other party's almost hysterical tone, Nick Fury was extremely calm, he glanced at the direction of the projection, and calmly assured:

"Of course we know, because we won't have any trouble."

Everyone on the council was stunned when they heard this, and they looked at Nick Fury suspiciously, but he didn't intend to explain his thoughts to these people, just continued to make promises.

"I will settle this trouble myself, I believe that S.H.I.E.L.D. will not be affected, we will not have any losses, and this time we have gained a lot, this operation can be said to greatly advance the progress of the 'Avengers Project'..."

When they heard Nick Fury say that he could handle this trouble, everyone in the holographic projection was obviously relieved, but they couldn't help but frown after hearing Nick Fury mention his "Avengers Project" again.

"Damn, I remember repeating it many times, Nick Fury!"

The holographic projection that made accusations at the beginning stood up directly this time, and he slammed his hands on the table with a loud "bang".

"Don't forget what S.H.I.E.L.D.'s core plan is at this stage! It's the Cosmic Cube! Cosmic Cube! It's a reboot of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube! "

The man immediately realized that he was out of control, he took a deep breath, sat back in his chair, and the other sighed, and then continued his topic with a bit of persuasion:

"The reason why we allocated you money and provided you with huge sums of money is not for the ridiculous 'Avengers plan,' we already have the American Army, the Air Force and the Navy, and there is no need to add a circus army in cartoon uniforms."

But the Cosmic Cube is completely different, it contains more energy than everyone can imagine, if we can restart it, then we can have an inexhaustible amount of eternal energy, which is more significant than an entire army composed entirely of Captain America. "

The man paused for two seconds, then his tone became a little harsh.

"Director Fury, next I hope you can put your energy back on the restart of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube and don't cause such big trouble again.

As for monitoring Bruce Banner, and your newly discovered superpowers, you can leave it to others to do, and it makes a lot of sense to develop the Cosmic Cube at this point in time, if you continue to focus your energy elsewhere, then the Council has the right to change the position of Director at any time, and you should know that we are not kidding you. "

In the face of the council's warning, Nick Fury just sneered.

Of course, he knew that it was of great significance to rekindle the Cosmic Cube, and he had high hopes for the Cosmic Cube, but in a long period of time, the scientific research team he led had tried nuclear energy, geothermal, electricity, magnetic energy, electromagnetic energy, static electricity, kinetic energy, solar energy and forty-seven hybrid energy sources, but all failed.

The Cosmic Cube is a dead end, at least for today's earth technology, they simply cannot activate the Cosmic Cube.

Although he has explained this many times and provided a lot of evidence, the Council still obsessively believes that the Cosmic Cube can be used, but they are based on some myths and legends, and only some historical documents and records are very vague and difficult to verify, let alone copy.

Instead of continuing to spend energy on the Cosmic Cube, Project Avengers is obviously more effective, after all, unlike the council members who only sit in their luxurious offices and drink coffee these days, he has seen aliens and those threats from outer space, and crisis times can come.

And the reason why he has maintained the restart plan of the Cosmic Cube is not a fluke, he is just using the Cosmic Cube to obtain more funds and budgets.

After all, through this small square, what he can get is not only money, but also institutional authorization, equipment manpower, etc., it can be said that nearly half of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s resources are now "cheated" by this small square.

Although he was disdainful in his heart, he still dealt with the members of the council lightly, reported the recent research status of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, and only after consuming another meaningless fifteen minutes did the projections disappear from his field of vision with satisfaction.

Agent Hill also knocked on the door of the office just right, and then pushed the door to enter.

"So what do we do next?"

Agent Hill didn't make the slightest demonstration that she had eavesdropped on the meeting, and Nick Fury didn't care about it.

"Of course, everything goes on, everything goes according to the original plan, but before that we have to take care of the aftermath for ourselves, how is the situation now?"

Hearing the unexpected answer, Agent Hill smiled bitterly, and then she placed a document in front of Nick Fury, then stood up straight and reported the information she had collected in detail:

"We found the temporary home of Bruce Banner, who escaped that day, who has now fled to Libya in northeast Africa, and has been on the run since this battle with Peter Parker, although he has not recently transformed into the Hulk, and the on-site personnel surveyed the scene and believe that Bruce Banner is planning to flee to Brazil.

And General Ross..."

Agent Hill sighed, pointed to a report and said with a little helplessness:

"We allowed the top medical team to do their best to treat him, but they only barely survived his life, I am afraid that he suffered not only physical injuries that day, but also his mental damage, and until now there are unexplained forces of the medical team that are eroding his physical body, causing him to not recover, and the attending physician has tried his best but there is no guarantee that he will regain consciousness."

Nick Fury was very happy with the situation, and he did not want General Ross to wake up again.

"We only need him alive, more than six hundred casualties have exceeded the total casualties of our troops in Iraq for several years, this responsibility must be borne by a living person, a comatose old general who will not defend himself and has no allies, you immediately send more guards to General Ross, we must protect him until this matter is resolved, he is the key to whether we can get rid of it."

Agent Hill nodded, but then she said with some concern:

"But I'm afraid we can't defend against retaliation from the Bernano family."

Although it is said that it is the revenge of the Bernano family, in fact, what she is referring to is Peter's magic, and to this day, whenever she sees birds flying in the sky, she will involuntarily recall the crows that cover the sky, and subconsciously tense her body.

"I have reached some agreements with them through Natasha, they should not do anything to General Ross in a short period of time, after all, they should not want to be charged with killing six hundred soldiers and destroying hundreds of millions of dollars worth of warplanes, if they want to suppress this matter, then General Ross must live."

After all, he is no different from a dead man now, even if he wakes up and awaits him is a military tribunal and retirement in prison, he has no threat to the Bernano family, not to mention that now it is more important for the Bernano family or us that he lives than he dies. "

Then Nick Fury tapped on the desk rhythmically while sorting out his thoughts and preparing to make the next plan.

"In addition, we also need to show them goodwill to repair our relationship, after all, we are also one of the leaders of this incident, if not repaired, at least we cannot be enemies of it."

Hill nodded thoughtfully, if it is only about wealth and power, although the Bernano family is a behemoth, in the eyes of S.H.I.E.L.D., it is just a wealthy family that has a good relationship with the church after the transformation of the gang, but now they suddenly have many powerful extraordinary humans to join them.

And the boy named Peter made Hill very jealous, and the way he floated in the sky that day and casually let the whole army disappear left a deep impression on her.

But at the same time, Hill also asked with some concern:

"But we shouldn't have any way to show it, right?"

Hill is well aware of the situation of the Bernano family, since S.H.I.E.L.D. launched an investigation into the leakage of super soldier serum, the Bernano family has followed Peter and Gwen into their sights, and the information about the Bernano family under Natasha's investigation can be said to be clear.

"The Bernano family is not short of money, and we cannot facilitate the political demands they need..."

After watching Hill count the conditions they could give one by one, and then veto one by one, Nick Fury finally couldn't help but reach out and interrupt her.

"We don't need to give them favors, all we need to do is show favor, a little kindness is enough to make them understand our intentions, and I believe they will accept it."

"Like sending them a postcard?"

Hill's complaining made Nick Fury raise his eyebrows.

"For example, for that ghost Spider-Man, Miss Gwen Stacy to eliminate the wanted, and give her an acceptance letter from S.H.I.E.L.D. Communications Academy, and offer her soon-to-be-unemployed father a new job, I think there should be little difference from the police chief's desk to the S.H.I.E.L.D. DESK, I think he can adapt."

"To be honest, this is not like a show of favor, and I am afraid that it is not so simple to eliminate the wanted for Ghost Spider-Man, even if the wanted order is really lifted through our relationship, those media and the public will only say that this is a government cover-up and conspiracy, I am afraid that this will not help Gwen, and will only make her subject to more verbal criticism."

"It's very simple to eliminate this wanted warrant, we are just pushing the boat along the water, as for that little girl, what she has to worry about is not just verbal criticism, she has to face a storm."

After that, Nick Fury pulled out a sample of a newspaper, and the date written on it was tomorrow.

The headline on the newspaper's homepage takes up almost a quarter of the page, and the bold font contains only one sentence.

Batman's true identity and romance exposed! Bat and spider are actually a couple?

And the picture of the newspaper turned out to be a picture of Peter wearing a broken mask and Gwen hugging tightly!
