A sneeze destroys a magical civilization

As the only native guardian on Earth, the Ancient One, the Sorcerer Supreme, was classified as SHIELD's top secret a long time ago.

To be precise, when she first appeared and took away the little girl who had awakened the power of elemental magic, her image data was captured by satellites and nearby undamaged cameras.

Later, after being confirmed by the powerful monk Balthazar and Zuo Si himself, Nick Fury listed it as the last trump card that can protect the earth at critical moments like Captain Marvel, and even wanted to develop it into a hero in the Avengers. One member.

It's a pity that the Master Supreme was completely uninterested in the olive branch extended by SHIELD, and even didn't bother to respond. In the end, he could only let it go.

Of course, Director Ludan didn't realize how big the gap between Captain Marvel and the Ancient One was.

Because in his eyes, both of them possess unimaginable power.

It's like taking a test with a score of 100 points. Some people do it because they have exerted all their strength, while others do it because the full score is only 100 points.

If the two were allowed to fight, Carol Danvers would probably die at the hands of the Sorcerer Supreme before she even figured out what was going on.

Even without using the Time Stone in the Eye of Agamotto, the latter still has too many means and methods to manipulate the former.

As one of the insiders, Coulson didn't know much about the Ancient One. He was limited to the fact that he was the leader of the largest group of magic users on Earth, and at the same time ensured that human society was protected from those malicious dimensional demons and various evil spirits. The invasion of monsters is, to a large extent, our own ally.

It's just that the other party has been around longer, has a longer history, and has older qualifications. It seems that it still looks down on SHIELD, which knows almost nothing about magic.

He didn't understand at all why this ancient being with powerful power suddenly came to him instead of the new director Maria Hill or the top leaders of the People's League, which was reorganized from the Security Council.

After all, whether it is contact or cooperation, the latter has the final say.

As for Coulson himself, he is just a relatively high-level agent within the huge organization SHIELD.

Especially after Nick Fury lost power, he no longer had a reliable backend to take care of everything he did before, and many more sensitive matters had to be handled carefully.

So after hesitating for a moment, he quickly reported the news through the wireless network and obtained authorization from Director Maria Hill.

A few minutes later, Coulson anxiously led several of his men through the portal and arrived at the magical holy land of Kama Taj.

Looking at the antique buildings and magnificent scenery around them, he and his entourage immediately took out their mobile phones and tried to use satellites to locate the place. However, they found that they could not connect at all. Instead, they found a weird wifi signal.

Everyone looked at each other for a moment, obviously confused by this strange situation.

After all, in their stereotype, mages should be a group of mysterious and conservative guys who don't bother to use modern electronic technology products. Instead, they spend all day reading in a room full of ancient books or doing some weird experiments. .

But this place was completely different from what they knew.

Not only can you see old people wearing wireless headphones listening to chanting scriptures and meditating, but you can also see boys and girls sitting in the corner playing with their mobile phones and laptops and watching funny short videos.

Some people who act like teachers will also film the process of the apprentice casting spells, and then point out the mistakes they made through playback and correct them.

There is no doubt that they not only keep up with the pace of technological development, but are also at the forefront of the times.

And the way they dress is not uniform. Many young people wear casual clothes, tight pants and sneakers. There is even an area dedicated to storing express delivery at the entrance. The piles of packages show that people here often shop online.

The fusion of simplicity and modernity, magic and technology has so many flaws that one doesn’t know where to start.

Ancient One obviously noticed the ghostly expressions on the faces of these S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, and couldn't help laughing and joking: "Don't you think that Kama Taj will be like a temple, and everyone will live a boring life?" Life, right?

We are also human beings and have all kinds of entertainment, consumption and pursuit of a better life.

So please put aside your prejudices and just treat this place like a normal boarding school.

Because the vast majority of apprentices only learn magic here, and after mastering a certain amount of knowledge and power, they will leave to do what they want to do.

Only when something major happens, they will be called upon by the Supreme Mage to gather together to deal with powerful enemies. "

"Ordinary boarding schools don't teach dangerous things like magic..."

A female agent stared at the apprentices not far away who were learning to draw circles to open the portal and couldn't help but whisper.

After all, Karma Taj's portal really uses energy to cut space, so sparks are often flying around the edges of the portal.

Moreover, once many unstable portals are suddenly closed, any object caught in the middle will be cut in half immediately, which is a bit scary just looking at it.

However, Coulson relied on his excellent professionalism to realize that the integration of these mages into modern society was actually a rare good thing.

At least they are not very different from ordinary people in terms of ideas and values, and it will be easier to communicate and cooperate in the future.

In this way, a group of people, led by the Supreme Mage, quickly arrived at a place that looked like an attic.

From here, you can see a small courtyard.

At this moment, more than thirty people, ranging in age from children around ten years old to adults in their thirties and forties, were gathering together, releasing magic in pairs that was completely different from that of Master Kama Taj.

One of the little girls just raised her hands in the air, and a giant several meters tall made of solid rock rose up from the ground, raised its arms and smashed down on the boy who was close at hand.

But the latter didn't show the slightest panic. Instead, he took out a handful of seeds from his pocket and sprinkled them around.

In a blink of an eye!

Huge vines grew out of the soil at extremely fast speeds, just like a scene from a fairy tale, quickly wrapping around the stone man.

The two sides continued to wrestle around a small area, and it seemed that neither could do anything to the other.

Not far away, there was a young man in his early twenties releasing some kind of dark purple energy, which collided with the black energy controlled by a sixteen-year-old girl, blooming with a dazzling brilliance.

A higher-level agent obviously noticed something, and immediately came closer and said to Coulson: "Sir, these people are all missing persons on that list. Their common feature is that they suddenly awaken their magical power and then get stuck. The people sent by Ma Taiji took him away.”

"Well, I recognize several of them already."

Coulson nodded slightly, and at the same time glanced at Gu Yi out of the corner of his eye. He didn't quite understand why the other party suddenly brought him to see this.

After all, in the eyes of SHIELD, these people are already considered members of Kama Taj, the largest group of spellcasters on earth.

This status alone is enough to ensure that they will not face any official harassment or difficulty even if they return to society in the future.

"What do you think of them?"

Gu Yi suddenly asked in a confused manner.

"How about what?"

Coulson blinked in confusion.

Ancient One patiently explained: "I am referring to their talent and power in magic."

"Very good, fully qualified to become a member of the Avengers."

Colson spoke his truest thoughts without thinking.

Because the magic of anyone here is far superior to Hawkeye, Black Widow and Captain America in terms of destructive power and lethality. The only thing they lack may be combat experience.

"What would you do if I gave them to you?"

After going around in circles for a long time, Gu Yi finally revealed his true purpose.

Obviously, she no longer wants to keep these spellcasters who did not belong to Kama Taj, and she does not want them to be involved in the dispute after her death.

Not long ago, she discovered that her good disciple Modu had begun to privately try to influence and win over those ignorant teenagers, and his behavior was exactly the same as Casillas's original behavior.

If we continue to let it go, it may inevitably cause a violent turmoil within Kamal Taj.

"give it to me?!!"

Coulson was stunned for a moment, with an expression of shock and disbelief on his face.

You must know that these are dozens of powerful spellcasters who can be used as combat power after being pulled out. They are many times more powerful than those apprentices trained in SHIELD's crash course. It is estimated that the top executives of the People's Federation will laugh out of their dreams when they hear this news. .

Gu Yi nodded slightly: "Yes.

Because many of them still have parents, children, relatives and friends, they simply don't belong here.

The reason why I brought them back before was mainly to let them learn, adapt and understand the magical power they possess, so as not to lose themselves in the face of the sudden power.

Now these people have regained their self-awareness and can use their power calmly without losing control.

Of course, you still need to seek personal advice on how to do it specifically.

In short, it is entirely up to you to get them back into society. "

"Please rest assured that in the name of SHIELD, I promise that I will fully respect everyone's right to choose, and there will never be any threats or coercion."

Colson hurriedly gave his assurance.

After all, this matter is definitely a huge surprise no matter how you look at it.

And if you can take this opportunity to establish a stable relationship with the Supreme Mage, you can ask him for advice when you encounter problems with magic and supernatural powers in the future.

But Gu Yi corrected him with a serious expression: "I'm talking about handing them over to you, not the representatives of SHIELD or the Human League. Because the person I trust is you, not them."

"Um...I don't quite understand what you mean."

A large amount of sweat suddenly appeared on Colson's forehead, and his whole body muscles tensed up.

After all, he is an "honest person", and he is a completely different type of person from Nick Fury who likes to play tricks, embezzle public funds from time to time, and play tricks on his superiors to create checks and balances.

If it were the latter, they would swallow up these powerful spellcasters if they couldn't protect them, and then start over again to establish some kind of secret rangers.

Anyway, if you have too many debts, you don’t have to worry about it, and if you have too many lice, you don’t have to worry about itching.

Based on Chief Luodan's usual behavior, a few items picked out at random would be enough for him to spend the rest of his life in prison, and there is no need to add one more.

Coulson just wanted to do his job well and did not dare to take on this hot potato.

"Are you afraid? Don't worry, I will give you Karma Taj's authorization and I won't let you be embarrassed in front of your superiors."

Gu Yi obviously knew what this middle-aged man was afraid of.

To be precise, when she made this decision, she used the time stone to see all the possibilities in the future and knew what to do to minimize the risk.

If SHIELD takes over, these people will definitely be targeted by Hydra in the future.

In order to avoid similar situations, the best solution is to authorize yourself to someone you trust.

In this way, in the eyes of the outside world, this group of people is equivalent to being protected by the Supreme Mage Kama Taj. Even if anyone wants to take advantage of them, they must consider the consequences.

For the same reason, Mordo will be afraid of SHIELD and the Human League and will not dare to continue to contact them, thus forming a delicate balance of mutual deterrence.

As for Zuo Si...

The Ancient One didn't think that a dimensional demon who collected evil souls would care about the lives of these people, just like Dormammu didn't care about the lives of Casillas and his followers.

So after a simple process of elimination, she identified Coulson, the most responsible and moral person, as her agent.

"You want me to come forward and arrange these people for you?"

Coulson obviously understood what the Supreme Mage wanted to express, and his original nervousness suddenly disappeared.

Ancient One smiled and nodded: "Yes, that's what I mean. And as long as they are willing, it doesn't matter whether you recruit them to the Avengers or hire them to work for SHIELD."

Just when Coulson was about to ask the other party for the wifi password here, and then ask Director Maria Hill for instructions, he suddenly saw the sky above his head suddenly darken.

The next second...

boom! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

A dazzling red lightning fell from the sky, followed by a creature with huge eyes that was kicked out of the gap in the sky and fell to an empty playground at an extremely fast speed.

The extremely terrifying impact instantly caused a violent earthquake, and many surrounding walls and houses collapsed in an instant.

Before the SHIELD agents could figure out what was going on, a petite voice jumped out of the crack and transformed into a huge circular magic circle that crashed down like a mountain.

boom!

Along with the blood and tragedy that cannot be described in words, half of the monster with huge eyes turned into meat paste on the spot.

When the splashing blood, minced meat, sand, gravel and dust completely dissipated, they finally saw clearly that the person who had done such a shocking act was actually a cute little girl wearing a purple dress, and this girl's face was actually filled with innocence. Her happy smile was completely incompatible with the cruel behavior she had committed.

What's even more outrageous is that such a little kid can actually easily drag a behemoth weighing dozens of tons. His eyes and expression are as if he has just caught an interesting small animal or bug, rather than a hideous and terrifying monster.

"Annie, how many times have I told you not to wander around in other dimensions or pocket universes? You must know that although your power is very powerful, you are still a little too immature compared to those cunning dimensional demons." Gu Yi helped. He rubbed his forehead and scolded in a rather helpless tone.

You don't need to ask to know that this little one is Zuo Si's daughter, Annie, who is temporarily fostered in Kama Taj.

As a typical energetic and daring child, after learning all the magic here, she used the knowledge she learned to travel through different dimensions and pocket universes in this universe. She especially likes to hunt interesting monsters.

From its appearance, it is easy to tell that the light in front of us is related to the Chaos Lord Shuma Gorath. It may be an insignificant part of this dimension demon.

"Don't worry, teacher. If I can't beat him, I will escape directly into my father's dark dimension, so they can't do anything to me."

Little Annie looked completely confident. She used her divine power to twist the monster with the power of the dark void, and then made it into a ferocious-looking emblem and wore it on herself as an ornament.

If you look carefully, you will find that there are twenty or thirty of these creepy gadgets hanging densely on her body.

This shows what she has been doing during this time.

Colson obviously knew little Annie, so he immediately bent down and forced out a smile to say hello: "Good day, Your Royal Highness, I didn't know you were still on earth."

"Who are you……"

Little Annie raised her head and looked up and down at the middle-aged man whose hair was almost falling out with slightly doubtful eyes. It was obvious that she did not remember seeing him at all.

After all, usually, she would only remember those who were strong enough, or those who provided her with fun and delicious food.

Unfortunately, Coulson has nothing to do with these two things, and the two only met briefly and never said a word.

"My name is Phil Coulson. I am an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. and I once had contact with your father, Lord Soth."

Coulson quickly introduced himself concisely.

From the mouths of the Avengers and Loki, he already knew how terrifying the little ancestor in front of him was, so he did not dare to be negligent in the slightest.

After all, it is the naughty kid like this who has powerful power who is the most terrifying.

You never know when you will suddenly become unhappy and the earth beneath your feet will explode, so you must coax as much as possible.

For example, during the Chitauri invasion, S.H.I.E.L.D. privately deleted all relevant video backups of zero-dollar purchases captured on surveillance to ensure that they would never be discovered by the outside world.

"Hey - what is this?"

Little Annie's eyes were immediately attracted by the firearm on the opponent's waist. It only took less than a tenth of a second to open the portal and take the silver pistol-shaped energy weapon away from Colson's waist.

By the time the latter reacted, she had already begun to transform it according to her own ideas.

In the blink of an eye, the silver pistol that was originally full of industrial beauty turned into a small pink cartoon-style toy, at least that's what it looked like on the surface.

Seeing his beloved gun in this state, Coulson's heart was bleeding, but he couldn't get it back. He could only look at the Supreme Mage helplessly, as if to say, "Don't you care?"

Just when Gu Yi wanted to speak, a dazzling green light instantly enveloped the entire Kama Taj, followed by a huge dragon with several heads swooping down from the top of the snow-capped mountains, exuding a terrifying momentum.

Just the look in the eyes of one of the heads made everyone feel uncontrollable fear in their hearts, and then they immediately turned around and ran away uncontrollably.

But before it could run very far, the giant dragon slowly landed in the empty square. One of them raised its head and let out a deafening roar.

moment!

Everyone's knees began to weaken, and they knelt on the ground with an uncontrollable plop, shivering.

In this roar, all creatures within the green light seemed to see fragments of the past and the future. A huge hourglass-shaped pattern slowly emerged on all the scales, and at the same time, the originally golden scales also exuded A faint green glow.

Less than a minute later, the multi-headed dragon transformed into a human form and it was Zuo Si himself.

The green light that enveloped Karma Taj was the power of the time stone in the Eye of Agamotto in his hand.

You don't need to ask to know that he successfully used the Time Stone to completely fuse the sundial, the time crystal and the bone hourglass with the head of his Azeroth Bronze Dragon.

It also has a strong connection to the Infinity Stones themselves, just like Captain Marvel.

Combined with the power of the Dimensional Demon God over time, Zuo Si has undoubtedly surpassed the legendary dragon species Time Dragon and can truly control time or even surpass it.

You must know that the so-called infinite gems are actually a kind of authority.

Whoever gets it can use it in the current universe.

This is why once you encounter a being with higher authority, the power of the Infinity Stones will immediately be deprived or lose its effect.

So it is not that the gem itself contains unlimited power as many people imagine. Its essence is closer to a controller.

Feeling the power of time flowing through his body and soul, Zuo Si flew directly to the attic and returned the Eye of Agamotto and the time gem inside to the Supreme Mage.

"Thanks, I feel better now."

"Are you sure you don't want to take the opportunity to take it for yourself?" Gu Yi asked with a half-smile.

"No, now is not the time. What's more, even without the power of the infinite stones, I can still control time."

As he spoke, Zuo Si raised his hand and suddenly released a green magic circle. Immediately afterwards, the ancient clock placed on the table began to reverse at a speed visible to the naked eye. In just a few seconds, it changed from the "battle-damaged version" to the "battle-damaged version". It shows the brand-new appearance when it was just produced.

Gu Yi was slightly surprised, and immediately realized what this meant. He raised his hand to feel the power of time remaining around the clock, and exclaimed in disbelief: "It's actually a permanent time reversal effect? ​​It seems like you I have truly mastered the power of time and it is truly incredible.”

"It's not a big deal. Could it be that you have forgotten that I already possess quite powerful time power, and I have obtained some time-related treasures. Finally, coupled with the stimulation of the infinite gems, it will naturally produce a strong enough resonance."

Zuo Si was undoubtedly not surprised by this result.

After all, according to the original plan, he planned to kill the Burning Legion and Sargeras in the Azeroth universe, and swallow all the Titan souls one by one to become part of his own power.

Especially Aman'Thul, the oldest Titan who controls the power of time.

By then, you will naturally be able to obtain enough time power to strengthen this dragon head.

At the moment, this plan is just being implemented a little ahead of schedule.

"makes sense……"

Ancient One took the Eye of Agamotto and put it into his wide sleeve.

After all, this thing is the creation of the first generation of Supreme Mage. In addition to its powerful power, it is also a symbol of the identity of the Supreme Mage of all generations.

Even without the Time Stone, it still has a huge symbolic meaning.

While the two were talking, the SHIELD agents who came from afar were completely confused.

Even a senior agent with extremely high authority like Coulson had only seen Zuo Si's human form, and had no idea that he also had the image of a big devil and a multi-headed dragon.

Especially the dual visual and spiritual impact produced by the latter makes people involuntarily think of the image of the Lord of Hell in the Bible.

Some young newcomers who are not mentally determined enough even wet their pants in fear.

Zuo Si obviously noticed this situation. He snatched the pistol that had been modified beyond recognition from Little Anne's hand and reprimanded: "How many times have I told you, you are not allowed to just grab other people's things. You must pay for whatever you like." money."

"I didn't grab it, I just took it over to look at."

Little Annie defended herself with a very unconvinced pouting.

"Take it here and take a look? Did you seek the owner's opinion and get his permission?" Zuo Si asked seriously.

Knowing that she was in the wrong, little Annie immediately closed her mouth and drooped her head without saying a word.

Because she knew that if she continued to mess around, she might be locked up in a dark room.

Before she obtained the Planeswalker Spark like her younger brother, she would not have been stupid enough to confront her father, who held the power of life and death, and run up to hide behind Ancient One.

Zuo Si obviously had no intention of going into details. He directly handed the cartoon-shaped pink pistol in front of Colson and said with an apologetic expression: "I'm really sorry. You know, children at this age are somewhat rebellious. They are very annoying and very troublesome to discipline.”

"You're too polite. It's just a pistol. It doesn't matter if Her Highness the Princess likes to take it."

Coulson showed a generous side of himself.

joke!

What can we do if we are not generous?

What's more, such a cute little loli can basically be forgiven by adults as long as she doesn't do anything outrageous.

After briefly inspecting the small pistol, which looked like a plastic toy, Coulson couldn't help but ask: "It still works, right?"

"Of course! But the power may be slightly stronger than before. You'd better pay attention."

Zuo Si gave an affirmative answer without hesitation.

"A little stronger?!"

Colson instantly caught a key word and shuddered subconsciously.

Because he is very sure that what the other party says is very likely to be very different from what he understands.

Zuo Si smiled and responded: "You can understand that this small pistol will cause the reaction force of the 152mm howitzer when it fires. As for the power, it can almost instantly trigger a shock wave force field that can destroy a building. , just remember not to use it in crowded places.”

"Huh? One...the recoil of a 152mm howitzer!"

The corners of Colson's mouth twitched violently, and his entire face became distorted.

He was now very glad that he had asked.

Otherwise, if you encounter an unexpected situation and need to draw a gun to fight, if you pull the trigger once, both arms will be completely scrapped. If the chest is not fully protected, the huge reaction will directly dent it and kill you on the spot.

Dealing with these extraordinary beings with powerful power, Coulson himself is like an ant under the giant's feet, he will be trampled to death if he is not careful.

And the other party is most likely unintentional.

Danger!

It's too dangerous!

Zuo Si reached out and patted Coulson's shoulder gently and comforted: "Relax, didn't you just buy a lot of technology? Just ask SHIELD to build you an auxiliary robotic arm. After all, you can't use it. Soon, the whole earth will become lively."

"lively?"

Coulson suddenly raised his head and showed a very nervous expression.

"right.

Do you think that defeating the Chitauri will lead to a period of peaceful development?

Don't be naive!

Whether it is the existence of aliens or the coming era of technological explosion and interstellar colonization, it will have a huge impact on people's inherent values, worldview, and existing social system.

The remains of alien corpses, weapons and spacecraft scattered everywhere will also trigger a new round of crisis.

Think about it, if one day suddenly a group of terrorists wearing ceramite power mechas and holding energy weapons burst out and staged a coup in a small country, or launched an indiscriminate massacre of civilians in densely populated areas, the police and ordinary people would Is the pitiful firepower in the hands of the army really useful?

Everything has two sides.

You can't enjoy the benefits without ignoring the negative consequences.

Take the Internet, which has only become popular in the past decade or so, as an example. While it has opened the door to the information age, it has also created huge social divisions.

In particular, the spillover of military technology used in wars will have much more serious consequences than the mere Internet. "

After saying these words full of warning, Zuo Si activated the Planeswalker Spark and disappeared.

Coulson accidentally realized the seriousness of the problem, and immediately said goodbye to Ancient One and left Kama Taj to report the situation to his superiors.

About an hour and a half later, he appeared in the director's office on the upper floor of the headquarters building.

After reading the report at hand, Maria Hill asked without raising her head: "What do you think should be done with those who have powerful magical powers? Many of them are underage children."

"I think we should try to return them to their families first, and then consider recruitment and employment. And it is best to send people to protect their families to prevent unexpected tragedies."

Coulson spoke his mind directly.

"Okay, you can handle this matter according to your ideas. I will greet you at the People's Alliance. Since this is our first cooperation with Kama Taj and the Supreme Mage, we must do a good job. "

After that, Maria Hill signed her name on the plan.

After doing all this, she picked up another document from the table next to her and threw it to the former director's most trusted subordinate.

“Here, take it and take a look.

This is at the request of representatives of the People's Federation, and you will take the lead in forming a special response team to deal with emergencies around the world.

The most important thing is to find out the whereabouts of the last kidnapped scientist and the missing items as soon as possible.

Especially the large amount of antimatter has made many people unable to sleep peacefully.

In addition, the rising tide organization that constantly discloses inside information on the Internet will also be dealt with.

The hackers' brazen disclosure of inside information has angered many big names. "

"How much authority does this special response team have?"

Colson picked up the document and glanced at it twice and asked in an uncertain tone.

Maria Hill replied without thinking: “It’s much bigger than you think.

The bureau will equip you with a super aircraft produced using the latest technology;

Agents below level 6 can be mobilized at will around the incident location;

Weapons and equipment capable of destroying a regiment in a short time;

Orbital weapons can also be requested when necessary. "

“Are all the representatives of the People’s Federation crazy?”

Coulson was visibly taken aback by the scope of the authority.

Because it is almost equivalent to the second most powerful person under the director.

"I don't know if they are crazy or not, but I am going crazy anyway.

Because since the attack that shocked the world, many energy weapons and imitation ceramite-powered mechas have appeared on the black market.

Note that the energy weapons I am talking about here are not the kind of small-scale firearms, but real energy cannons.

Just a few hours ago, during a melee between warlords in a certain area of ​​Africa, someone used a powerful energy cannon to wipe out a small town. A total of 60,000 people were completely vaporized in less than a second, without even a trace of residue. None of them could stay.

This is a picture captured by a satellite. The scene is simply too horrific to watch.

In addition, two US military bases in the Middle East were also attacked similarly, but using seemingly crude powered mechas, the death toll reached about 3,000.

All aircraft, missiles, armored vehicles, helicopters, and oil storage facilities in the base were destroyed.

What's even more terrible is that because all the satellites at that time were shot down, we have no idea where the wreckage of the Chitauri warships that fell from the sky fell, and who got it. "

Maria Hill held her forehead with a tired look on her face, staring at the world map projected on her desk and the dense red dots.

Each red dot represents an attack that urgently needs investigation and the deaths of at least hundreds of people.

In addition, there is naturally a series of death lists of field agents.

If anyone is the first to feel the terrible consequences of the spillover of alien military technology, it must be S.H.I.E.L.D.

"Natasha hasn't found any clues yet?"

Coulson was silent for a long time and then pinned his hopes on Black Widow.

Because when she was included in the Avengers, she was considered to be in need of her outstanding spy abilities in the future.

Maria Hill smiled bitterly and shook her head: "No. Because the man behind the scenes was very cautious and never showed up even when making transactions with the arms dealers in the middle. The only thing that is known so far is that these people call him Baron."

"Baron? Is he a noble from Europe?" Coulson narrowed his eyes and guessed.

“I don’t know, all the clues that can be traced have been broken so far.

Moreover, instead of decreasing, the number of weapons circulating on the black market is increasing.

In short, quickly form your team, we must suppress these attacks on a global scale in a short time.

Even if we can't solve the problem at its root, we should at least make sure it's not as frequent as it is now. "

After that, Maria Hill waved her hand to indicate that Coulson could leave, and she began to read through the massive mission reports and formulate corresponding action plans.

This is no easy job.

Especially for women who are naturally more emotional.

After all, SHIELD reached its peak under the leadership of Nick Fury.

As the new director, she will inevitably be compared with her predecessor by her subordinates. You can imagine the pressure.

But neither Maria Hill nor Coulson realized that the current situation came from the Hydra lurking within the organization.

No matter how good their plans are, the Hydra behind the scenes is like taking an open-book exam. They can just copy the answers if they get the correct answers in advance.

Maybe the person who went to lead the team to carry out the arrest mission was a member of Hydra.

If the mastermind behind this could be found, there would be a ghost.

Just when SHIELD was in dire straits, Alexander Pierce, the North American smuggler, had risen step by step to become a popular figure in the People's Alliance.

Right now, he is sitting in his office, tasting red wine, and talking on the phone with Baron Strucker who is far away in Sokovia, Eastern Europe.

"Is your research going smoothly over there?"

"Of course! With the intelligence support you provided, whether it is SHIELD or the Avengers, they are all running around like headless flies. And those weapons and equipment have also collected enough data in actual combat. No problem. If not expected, the first generation of mature products should be available soon.”

"Great! Move Dr. Zola out as soon as the technology is ready. We need his ingenuity now more than ever."

"Don't worry, a new computer capable of carrying Dr. Zola is already under construction and will enter the testing phase in a month or two at most."

"This is the best news I've heard in a while. I believe Dr. Zola will be very excited when he learns that humans can finally leave their home star and run into the universe."

"Yes. After all, his consciousness will be implanted into every battleship as the underlying logic code. At that time, we only need to wake up these codes, and we will immediately have a powerful space fleet..."
