The night was deep and the cold wind was howling.

In the huge roar emitted by the high-speed rotation of the helicopter blades, pillars of snowy light concentrated on the body from all directions.

Stimulated by the outside world, Ross woke up groggily, and his consciousness resurfaced, dominating his body.

“What is this place?”

Suddenly coming to an unfamiliar environment, he tried his best to calm himself, tilted his head slightly, and the surrounding scene suddenly came into view.

He found himself clinging to the edge of the glass façade of a skyscraper, with two military helicopters hovering behind him that could attack at any moment.

Beyond the helicopter barrier, you can see all over the river embankments, buildings, woods, and lights in the surrounding area, criss-crossed by a slender road network like a ribbon of light in the distance, and a brightly lit city night view beyond.

A mighty river slowly came from afar, flowing into the distance by the side of the building square three hundred feet below your feet.

Looking at the scenery on both sides of the river, Ross’s pupils shrank slightly.

This is the Potomac River.

Across the river, the 12-storey semi-circular building is the famous Watergate Building, the white building near the Watergate Building is the Lincoln Memorial, and the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts is opposite the memorial.

The reference object is determined, then the orientation of oneself is… S.H.I.E.L.D. Trident Mansion!

Ross was startled, and then his head ached violently, and the hidden memories poured back into his mind like an out-of-control tide.

He remembered that just yesterday afternoon, the Pentagon had concluded the Army Science and Technology Symposium, and then he was invited by General Thaddeus Ross to join the small circle of several generals, drinking and chatting with these old men until midnight before returning to the hotel under the escort of bodyguards.

How much Ross drank, maybe two or three whiskey, or more spirits.

Then he left the hotel in a trance like a drunkard and rushed into S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters alone until he was discovered by heavily guarded guards.

Thinking back to this, Ross couldn’t help but feel an absurd feeling in his heart.

There has never been a phenomenon of drunkenness in his career.

As early as the initial training stage, the instructors will be targeted to test the trainees’ drunk reactions, those who cannot keep their mouths shut after drinking are all eliminated, and the rest will be specially trained, so that their body’s sensitivity to alcohol | greatly reduced.

Even when he came to this world, Ross did not let his guard down in this regard, although there are no agent-specific drugs such as plant extract complex tablets to slow down the oxidation of ethyl |alcohol into toxic substances to balance alcohol metabolism, he also has simpler alternatives to reduce the damage of alcohol to the body and keep his mind always clear.

Just half an hour before attending the cold meal, he took a dietary fiber tablet, a common weight loss drug containing a high concentration of cellulose, which will expand rapidly after contact with water, releasing a large number of cations, which can wrap alcohol not into the digestive circulation system, but directly excreted from the body, thereby reducing the damage of alcohol to the liver and body.

When he discovered that the generals had the intention of drinking heavily, he also quietly ordered a glass of cow | milk, which could form a protective film on the stomach wall and reduce the entry of alcohol into the bloodstream.

Even from the harshest point of view, his preparations did not show any omissions, but everything changed when a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent with a mysterious suitcase passed by.

The strange fluctuations coming out of the box seemed to cross the virus blocked by a strong will, directly stealing Ross’s soul, making him lose self-control, relying on his instinct to avoid outsiders, and rushed into the headquarters of S.H.I.E.L.D., alarming the defense mechanism before coming to his senses.

At this time, the interior of the building was brightly lit, a strong warning came from the speaker behind it, a large number of armed agents rushed out of the building square under the feet, and many figures flashed on the edge of the roof on the top floor.

Hundreds of lethal weapons were pointed at the invaders’ bodies from all directions.

Ross turned his head and saw himself through the reflective glass exterior.

Covered in darkness, unable to see the appearance clearly, countless tiny scales are densely arranged outside the skin, strictly protecting the body.

Slightly relieved, Ross did not care to study why this happened, and the agents behind it had given up persuasion and launched a tentative attack.

Hearing the barrel turn, before the bullet storm hit, Ross suddenly exerted his force, and the glass wall where his limbs touched suddenly cracked, and then he burrowed into the interior of the building through the crack.

Several tongues of fire flashed behind, strings of hot metal warheads chased the figure deep into the building, and the glass torn by the bullet turned into countless crystalline fragments and scattered into the wind.

With the muffled sound of gunfire, the mournful sound of sirens suddenly pierced the calm night sky.

The entire complex was automatically put on alert with Ross’s intrusion.

At the same time, S.H.I.E.L.D. director Nick Fury hurriedly led people into the central control room.

Dozens of monitors are nervously busy inside, and footage from countless surveillance probes is filled with hundreds of screens all over the walls, which can not only reflect the surrounding wind, but also directly manipulate the most advanced weapon systems to strike intruders.

“Tell me first how bad it is?” The one-eyed chief asked directly.

“The intruders have entered the thirty-first floor of the headquarters building, and the number of invaders is tentatively set at one, and the specific intention is unknown.” The security supervisor reported in a hurried | tone.

“Thirty-one days…?”

Fury frowned, his eagle-like eyes looking at the picture on the screen, constantly making various guesses in his heart.

One image was picked out by the monitors, and above was the corridor where Ross passed.

Under the gaze of the high-ranking S.H.I.E.L.D. officials, a black shadow appeared from one end of the picture, instantly turning into an afterimage and disappearing at the end of the corridor.

“Mutants, Speed?” A senior agent exclaimed, but was a little undecided.

From the screen, it seems that the size of the black shadow is slightly smaller than the previous observations, but the speed of the other party is too fast, even the high-speed camera can hardly see his true face.

The agents didn’t know that it was Ross, who wasn’t wearing extreme gear.

“No matter who it is, we can’t be careless.” Fury quickly made up his mind.

“With the thirty-first floor as the center, cut off the passage above and below the main building, open the active defense system, and the rest of the personnel in each district quickly evacuate, and those who fail to evacuate in time organize defense on the spot, and if the situation is unfavorable, it is allowed to hide and standby, and try to avoid accidental injuries by the defense system.”

Receiving instructions from the Director, the Director of Security complied with the order.

“Sir, Mr. Pierce is still in the controlled area.” Agent Garrett hurried to report.

“Pierce… What is he doing there? Fury was slightly startled.

Alexander Pierce, Minister of National Security, former head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, member of the Council for World Security, Nobel Peace Prize laureate (refused).

In addition to the above prominent aura, for S.H.I.E.L.D., Pierce has another special status, that is, the former director of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Long ago, during a rescue mission, Fury rescued the kidnapped hostages, including Pierce’s daughter, and the two became friends, and later Pierce appointed him as the next director, and since then S.H.I.E.L.D. under Fury’s leadership has entered a rapid development phase.

Pierce is important to S.H.I.E.L.D., and Fury must think about his safety, but it doesn’t matter to the intruder.

Ross was breaking through the barrier with all his might at this time, rushing in the direction where the fluctuation came.

Originally, he had not planned to touch the thing so early in his plan, but a sudden accident forced him to change his mind.

“Going downstairs, someone is taking it away.” He silently sensed the call of the underworld, and while exporting his maximum strength outward, he tried to fight against the inexplicable impulse emotions in his heart.

Shattering the camera probe on the ceiling, rushing to the falling sealed door in an instant, Ross casually smashed a fire box and took out the fire axe inside.

“Boom —-”

Instead of swinging towards the all-metal sealed door, the axe landed on the wall next to it.

After a loud bang, a shocking crack was cut by a high-speed swinging axe, dust slid down the gap, and then bundles of cables were exposed.

Ross took a quick glance, reached out and pulled out a few lines of different colors, grabbed them and pulled them hard, and the copper wire inside was suddenly exposed to the air.

The copper wire was handed over, an electric spark flashed, a thick smoke came out of the short-circuited sealed door, the key device automatically failed, and then it was raised by Ross with one hand.

The metal door had just been raised, and several prepared agents were ambushed behind, firing fiercely at the black shadow outside the door.

Ross bent down slightly, avoiding the bullet that grazed his cheek, and rushed through the cracks of the crowd.

Although he did not have the protection of equipment, he accidentally exerted most of his extreme speed ability at this time, swimming | in such a crowded space, it was as weird and terrifying as a ghost.

If it weren’t for the fact that all his spirit followed that fluctuation, the corridor would already be full of corpses at this time.

Chasing all the way, the battle became more and more intense, Ross rushed from the thirty-first to the twenty-first, and suffered countless blows in the middle, there are many weapon interfaces inside the S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters building, poison gas, machine guns, flames, lasers and other means are innumerable, and on the way, they often encounter spontaneous armed agents desperately resisting.

As the target gradually approached, the movement in the building became particularly intense, at this time most of the lights have been cut off, the dim corridor from time to time flickering dazzling sparks, decorations, tables, chairs, doors and windows were smashed by whistling bullets, some combustible objects were ignited by high temperature, and gradually the fire spread, the dark red fire flickered on and off, the fire sprinkler on the ceiling automatically sprinkled a large amount of water mist when heated, and the smoke continued to spread outward in the alternation of cold and heat.

“Mr. Pierce, go this way.”

In the chaos, Ross keenly caught a voice.
