Chapter 89: New York is blocked and SHIELD can't get out!
At the same time, inside the S.H.I.E.L.D. Dark Matter Research Base.
"What in the World is going on here?"
Having rushed to the Dark Matter Research Base, Nick Fury looked at Dr. Selvig and said, "I have already ordered all researchers and soldiers to evacuate."
"Dr. Selvig, can you tell me what happened here?"
Facing Nick Fury's inquiry, Dr. Selvig shook his head and said, "I'm not sure either. According to our research on the Tesseract, it absolutely shouldn't produce such strong fluctuations so quickly."
"But I don't know what went wrong. The Tesseract's activity frequency has exceeded what it was before. I even suspect someone tampered with it now."
Hearing Dr. Selvig say this, Nick Fury looked up at Clint Barton, who was hiding above.
Sliding down from above using a pipe, Hawkeye shook his head and said, "I've been guarding here the whole time, and I can confirm that no one has touched the Tesseract."
As the three of them were talking, the Tesseract's energy surged again.
A brilliant blue energy continuously spread out in front of them, eventually forming a portal directly ahead.
Seeing the portal appear, Hawkeye instinctively shielded the two behind him.
At the same time, he stared at the portal, which seemed to lead to some part of the Universe. Should danger arise, the explosive arrow in his hand would be shot directly through.
As the portal opened, Loki, holding the Mind Stone, soon walked out.
"Hmph, what a familiar sense of déjà vu."
Loki said with a smile, looking at the vigilant Hawkeye, the serious Nick Fury, and the curious Dr. Selvig.
"Who are you?"
Seeing Loki appear, Nick Fury stepped forward and said, "An alien? If you have no ill intentions, then please put down the object in your hand—"
Before Nick Fury could finish speaking, Loki interrupted, "You should have heard my name. I, Loki, Prince of Asgard, King of Jotunheim!"
"Loki? Thor's brother!"
Hearing Loki's self-introduction, Dr. Selvig said, "He's the guy who controlled that damn robot in New Mexico, trying to kill Thor."
"That's right!"
Hearing Dr. Selvig's words, Loki spread his hands and laughed, just about to deliver his'shoes and ants' declaration of Earth conquest.
But the words stopped at his lips.
"Damn it, he made me lose interest in making my declaration!"
As his voice fell, Loki swiftly attacked the group.
At the same time, inside the New York FBI building.
"Boss, this case is very important, so I'm afraid you'll have to lead the team personally."
Alice said, handing the file to Lynn.
Hearing Alice say this, Lynn curiously took the file and glanced at it.
Upon seeing the case file and the complete video, Lynnfrowned and said, "F***, how did a hard drive that can control nuclear missile system data fall into their hands?"
"The NSA and the Pentagon are a bunch of f***ing idiots! With this system, even constantly changing nuclear missile launch codes is useless!"
"Once the hard drive falls into the hands of Terrorists, they can control nuclear missiles to launch at any country or location at any time!"
Looking up at Alice, Lynn said, "Have you found the exact location of Donny in the video yet?"
"Joey is using a satellite to track Donny and simultaneously monitoring Donny's phone."
"Boss, according to the call records, Donny arranged to meet a group of buyers from Eastern Europe at a warehouse outside the city at 3 PM for a transaction."
Hearing Alice say this, Lynn stood up and said, "I'll go tell the Director. You tell the action team brothers to get ready, we'll depart immediately!"
"Yes!"
Hearing Lynn's order, Alice immediately rushed outside.
2 PM, inside an abandoned warehouse outside New YorkCity.
"Boss, the meeting point agreed upon by both parties is here."
Hiding behind an abandoned machine inside the warehouse, Alice said to Lynn, "The transaction will begin in another hour!"
"Has Joey still not tracked Donny?"
"Unable to track, Boss. Donny and Russell, whom he killed, are both among the top hackers in the World. Plus, Donny used to serve in the Marine Corps."
"So he's very experienced in evading tracking. Even satellites have a hard time finding his location."
Hearing Alice say this, Lynn frowned and said, "If Donnyis a top hacker, then if Joey hacked his phone, he wouldn't find out?"
"Ryan hacked into Donny's phone."
Facing Lynn's questioning, Alice said, "Joey said that although Ryan is a bit introverted, his skills rank among the top five among hackers globally."
"So even if the other party is among the top hackers, it's very difficult for them to discover."
As time passed, with just over ten minutes until 3 PM, two SUVs drove into the warehouse from outside.
As a dozen burly men got out of the vehicles, Aliceimmediately aimed the camera at them.
Inside the FBI building.
Looking at the video transmitted back from the camera, Joey immediately searched for the identities of these people.
Once the information on these individuals was retrieved, Joey immediately said, "Boss, according to the data, the man in charge is named Ian Service, the second-in-command of an armed force in Eastern Europe."
"The crimes this guy has committed are enough to fill a book!"
Hearing Joey's words in his earpiece, Lynn nodded.
Just as this group from Eastern Europe was waiting, a man wearing a mask and a hooded sweatshirt, carrying a black backpack, rode a motorcycle into the warehouse.
"Are you the buyers?"
Getting off the motorcycle, the man with the mask and hooded sweatshirt asked.
"Boss, he should be Donny. His back profile and voice are similar!"
Hearing Alice's words, Lynn picked up a submachine gun and said, "Action!"
Inside the warehouse!
The hooded man put down his backpack and was about to proceed with the transaction when a large number of FBI Agents, who had been ambushed in the warehouse, immediately rushed out with their firearms raised.
"Don't move!"
"Hands on your head and kneel on the ground!"
"F***, kneel on the ground!"
Looking at the fully armed FBI Agents rushing out, Ian Service and his subordinates, as well as the hooded man, immediately put their hands on their heads and knelt on the ground.
Coming in front of the hooded man, Alice pulled off his hood and mask, then was surprised to find that this guy who came for the transaction was not Donny!
"Boss, we've been tricked, he's not Donny!"
Hearing Alice say this, the hooded man, who was kneeling on the ground, immediately said, "I'm not the target you're looking for. Someone gave me two thousand U.S. dollars to come here and hand over the backpack to them."
"F***!"
Kicking the shouting hooded man to the ground, Aliceturned her head, just about to say something to Lynn.
But she heard Lynn say, "Everyone pay attention, leave the warehouse immediately!"
Hearing Lynn's order, Alice and the action team quickly evacuated the warehouse.
Seeing the FBI retreat so quickly, the Eastern European armed forces and the hooded man, who were kneeling on the ground, were all stunned. They had no idea what was happening.
Less than thirty seconds after Lynn led his team out of the warehouse, a violent explosion immediately occurred inside the warehouse.
"Rumble!"
Watching the powerful airflow from the explosion blow off the warehouse roof, Alice gasped and said, "Boss, is this a specialized bomb?"
"Damn it, this reminds me of that guy Draco Mohammed!"
Hearing Alice say this, Lynn said, "Continue to track Donny, and at the same time, investigate everyone who entered New York from Eastern Europe in the past half month."
"Additionally, the Department of Justice has already communicated with the Military. They are waiting for cooperation orders. Immediately notify them to implement a strict ground and air blockade. Not even a fly can leave New York."
"Yes!"
Hearing Lynn's order, Alice nodded.
One hour later.
"Boss, the identity of the backpack man has been found. This guy is a drug addict, and both his height and build are similar to Donny's. If there are no surprises, Donnyprobably specifically found and hired him!"
At this point, Joey looked at Lynn and said, "Sorry, Boss, it was my carelessness. I thought Ryan hacking into Donny's phone wouldn't be discovered by him."
Listening to Joey's apology, Lynn said, "Continue to track Donny. Get the intelligence team and all informants moving. No need to apologize."
"After all, no one can guarantee 100% not to make mistakes!"
"Thank you, Boss!"
Signaling Joey to leave, Barbara came behind Lynn and gently massaged his head: "Boss, do you think Donny is still in New York right now?"
"I'm not sure, but if I were Donny, I would try to escape New York as soon as I killed Russell."
"However, judging from his entry and exit records and his phone communications, he should still be in New York at this time."
"This means he must have something unfinished or some purpose for staying in New York!"
At this point, Lynn picked up Donny and Russell's files from the table and began to review their interpersonal relationships again.
At the same time.
"What?"
Hearing the news from the other end of the phone, Natasha immediately said, "I'll be right back."
After hanging up the phone, Natasha headed straight for Los Angeles Airport.
She had just arrived at the airport, intending to buy a ticket to New York, but received a notification that all flights to New York had been grounded.
Even flights already in the air were returning to their original departure points.
Although she didn't know what exactly had happened, Natasha immediately called Coulson.
Ten minutes later.
Hearing Coulson say over the phone that even S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Kun-style Fighter Jets were ordered by the Military not to leave New York.
Natasha immediately frowned and asked, "What exactly happened?"
"It's unclear at the moment, but I heard from the Militarythat the order to place New York under martial law came from Lynn. Currently, even Director Fury, who is stationed at S.H.I.E.L.D. in New York, cannot leave New York."
"Even his communication with the Military had no effect!"
"I understand."
After hanging up on Coulson, Natasha directly called Lynn.
Lynn, who was already packing up to leave work, smiled and asked upon receiving Natasha's call, "Aren't you on vacation? Natasha, have you run into some trouble?"
"Lynn, I need to get back to New York from Los Angelesimmediately. Something big happened at S.H.I.E.L.D. Loki, Thor's brother, burst out of the space portal opened by the Tesseract, then controlled Barton and Dr. Selvig, and disappeared!"
"I'll explain who Loki and Thor are, and what the Tesseract is, when I get back, but I need to get back to New York immediately!"
Hearing Natasha's explanation, Lynn was stunned for a moment.
He glanced at the year displayed on the table, feeling a bit confused!
"I understand. I will notify the Military to lift the air restrictions for S.H.I.E.L.D."
After hanging up the phone, Lynn sent a text message to General Ross, then sat in his chair and began to ponder.
Damn it, I didn't expect things to happen all at once!
If the Battle of New York happens at this point in time, then the FBI must find Donny as soon as possible.
After all, once the wormhole opens and the Chitauri army invades Earth, Donny will inevitably use this opportunity to escape New York.
And if Donny leaves New York with the hard drive that can control nuclear missile launch procedures, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Thinking of this, Lynn stood up and headed to the Illuminati!
Inside the Illuminati.
"What's wrong?"
Looking at the solemn Steve Rogers, Peter Parkerstepped forward and asked curiously, "What happened, Captain? If you need anything, I will do my best!"
The next morning, inside Lynn's office.
"Loki not only took Clint, but also snatched the Tesseract."
Handing the tablet to Lynn, Natasha said, "According to the information Loki inadvertently revealed, Furyspeculates that Loki is trying to use the Tesseract to open a wormhole and let aliens enter Earth."
"Lynn, if Loki really intends to do this, then Earth will fall into a huge crisis."
At this point, Natasha leaned back in her chair and said, "The Avengers that Fury has always envisioned must have been prepared for this day!"
Looking at the images of himself, Tony Stark, Steve, and a few others on the tablet.
Lynn said to Natasha, "Are all the people shown on the tablet the targets Nick Fury recruited? Why are there no Mutants?"
Facing Lynn's question, Natasha shrugged and said, "That's right. Coulson went to recruit Tony, Furypersonally went to inform Steve, and Hill went to recruit Dr. Banner."
"As for Mutants—"
Shrugging, Natasha looked at Lynn and said, "So Lynn, this time we need you to join us!"
"Lynn, this time we need you to join us!"
Hearing Natasha say this, Lynn put down the tablet and said, "If this battle truly concerns the safety of Earth, then I naturally won't stand idly by."
"But before that, I need to solve the case at hand."
"Is it the case that made you order the lockdown of New York, and even implement air traffic control? Luckily, you allowed S.H.I.E.L.D.'s aircraft to leave New Yorkyesterday, otherwise Hill probably wouldn't have been able to fly out by now."
Natasha was also very curious about what kind of case could make Lynn go to such great lengths.
As the two were talking, Barbara pushed the door open and walked in: "Boss, Ryan investigated by restoring past surveillance footage and found that Donny bought three cell phones a year ago."
"By deciphering the other two phones, we found that Donny frequently contacted a certain number."
"We have already found the owner of that number, and the person has been brought to the interrogation room!"
Hearing Barbara say this, Lynn said, "Natasha, you go recruit the others first. Once I finish this matter, I'll meet up with you!"
"Okay!"
Nodding, Natasha got up and left.
Inside the interrogation room.
Looking at the information of the woman in front of him, Lynn asked, "Are you Donny's girlfriend?"
"To be precise, I'm his ex-girlfriend."
Facing Lynn's inquiry, the woman was clearly startled: "Mr. Hall, please believe me, I really don't know what Donny did, and I didn't participate in any of Donny's crimes..."
"Don't be nervous."
Putting down the documents in his hand, Lynn smiled and said, "Since you know me, you should know my character. I won't wrongly accuse any good person."
"You just need to cooperate with our interrogation, and once we understand the situation, I'll send someone to take you back."
Seeing Lynn's smiling face and gentle tone, the previously startled woman gradually calmed down.
It must be said that Lynn's prestige among the public was high enough, so the woman in front of him was very willing to believe Lynn's words.
"I used to be a stripper at the Silver Club, then I met Donny, and after I got together with him, I stopped."
"I dated him for three years. In the beginning, he was just a programmer, but later he became secretive, and I often couldn't find him."
At this point, the woman looked up at Lynn: "At first, I thought he was cheating, and I even secretly followed him, but he was a Marine Corps veteran, so he always found me."
"Oh, by the way, he has a warehouse at the New Yorkport. He once told me that it would be our future security."
"But six months ago, he broke up with me, and I haven't seen him since."
"Warehouse?"
Hearing the woman mention the warehouse, Lynnimmediately asked for the warehouse's address.
After receiving an accurate answer, Lynn had Alice take people to check the warehouse.
After speaking, Lynn looked at the woman and continued to ask, "In the three years you were with him, did you notice anything unusual about him?"
"Anything unusual?"
Facing Lynn's question, the woman thought for a moment, then looked at Lynn and said, "Does him having frequent nightmares count?"
"When I first started dating him, he had just been discharged from the Military, and he would always have nightmares at night, and he would always say things like it wasn't his fault, or that he was framed, in his sleep."
"Every time he woke up from a nightmare, his expression was very gloomy, and then he would go to the living room alone and secretly smoke."
"But later, this rarely happened. As for other unusual things, I didn't notice any."
Hearing the woman say this, Lynn got up and said, "Thank you for your cooperation."
"So, can I leave now?"
"Of course, no problem. Once we confirm that everything you said is true, I will have someone send you away."
With that, Lynn turned and left.
In the corridor.
"Investigate the real reason Donny was discharged from the Marine Corps. I suspect this might be why he didn't choose to leave New York immediately!"
Hearing Lynn's order, Joey immediately nodded.
At the same time, inside a Kun-style Fighter Jet.
"Wow, this is so cool!"
Peter Parker kept exclaiming in admiration as he looked at the internal structure of the Kun-style Fighter Jet.
He glanced at Spider-Man, who was constantly making exaggerated sounds.
Coulson turned to Steve Rogers and said, "CaptainRogers, it's an honor to fight alongside you."
Hearing Coulson say this, Steve nodded: "The file says that Dr. Bruce Banner wants to replicate the serum in me?"
"Many people have tried, Captain Rogers, after all, you are the first superhero. Dr. Banner believes that gamma rays can—"
"Dr. Bruce Banner?"
Hearing their conversation, Peter Parker leaned over: "I know him, his photo is even hanging on the wall of our high school classroom, he's a genius."
Seeing Spider-Man lean over and interrupt his conversation with his idol, Coulson gave him a polite smile.
"Oh, sorry, I mean, where is our destination?"
Pointing below the Kun-style Fighter Jet, Peter Parkersaid, "Isn't this a vast ocean? Is our destination an island?"
"Of course not, Mr. Spider-Man, but it's actually quite similar."
After answering Peter's question, Coulson looked back at Steve: "The outcome wasn't very good. As long as he's stimulated or gets angry, he turns into a powerful, irritable green giant."
Hearing Coulson's reply, Steve nodded: "If it's really as Fury said, that Loki will open a wormhole to let aliens descend, then we do need an irritable big guy!"
"Actually, I think Jean, Ororo, and Scott should also join in." Peter Parker, who was beside them, spoke again: "Their strength is also very strong, especially Jean. I can sense that she is sometimes really terrifying, I mean her abilities."
"Boss, you really guessed it!"
Coming into Lynn's office, Joey said excitedly, "The reason Donny was discharged from the Marine Corps was fake; he was actually dismissed!"
"The Marine Corps said that three years ago, Donny led a small team to a certain island for a secret mission. The mission failed, and the entire team, except for Donny, was killed."
"After an investigation by the superior department, they concluded that Donny disobeyed orders and did not follow the plan. He almost faced a Military court because of it!"
"Later, the Marine Corps instructor pleaded for him, which saved him from a Military court, but he was dismissed because of it!"
At this point, Joey handed the detailed investigation file to Lynn.
"An instructor pleaded for him? Can an instructor's plea exempt someone from a Military court trial?"
"Because this instructor's identity is not ordinary. His Grandpa once served as President, and his family is still active in politics."
"Including this detailed action report, it was obtained from him!"
Flipping through the secret file, looking at the operation process of that mission, as well as the accompanying intelligence materials.
Lynn read it a few times and said, "From the operation process, Donny's command at the time wasn't terribly wrong. Although it deviated from the original plan, the situation on the battlefield changes in an instant."
"The Military should be aware of this!"
Hearing Lynn say this, Joey shrugged: "The Militarynaturally knows about this, but since only one person survived from an elite team, they conducted an investigation."
"At the time, Donny claimed that the intelligence was wrong, but the intelligence officer, a major, firmly stated that the intelligence was not wrong and that it was Donny's poor command."
"Finally, after the Military's superior judgment, the responsibility was Donny's, but because that instructor pleaded for him, Donny was only discharged."
Lynn thought for a few seconds, then looked at Joey and said, "Is that major still in service?"
"After my investigation, that major returned to New Yorkon leave a day ago, exactly two hours before we locked down New York!"
"That's it!"
Picking up his coat, he stood up and said, "The reason Donny didn't choose to leave New York immediately was because he knew that once he sold the hard drive to an armed force, he would never be able to return to New York in his lifetime!"
"So this is his last chance for revenge!"
"Gather the action team!"
"Yes!"
Hearing Lynn's order, Joey immediately walked out.
At the same time, inside an apartment building in Manhattan!
"Kill me, spare my wife and child."
The major, shot in the abdomen, lay on the ground, pleading to Donny in front of him: "They are innocent, my daughter is just three years old!"
Listening to the major's plea, Donny gripped his gun, his eyes filled with hatred: "Damn it, you have a family, don't my brothers have families too?"
"If it wasn't for the wrong intelligence you transmitted back then, how would my brothers have been surrounded and ultimately riddled with bullets?"
"Please, let them go—"
"Bang."
"Bang bang!"
Before the major could finish speaking, Donny fired three consecutive shots, killing the major's wife.
"No!!!"
Seeing his wife fall in a pool of blood, the major immediately rushed to her, but no matter how hard he tried to cover the gunshot wounds on his wife's body.
Blood kept flowing from his fingertips.
"Ah!!!"
After a painful roar, the major, with a distorted face, pounced on Donny, but was kicked to the ground by Donny.
"Heh, heartbroken? But do you know how much pain those families who lost their husbands and sons have to endure?"
Saying that, Donny once again raised his gun, aiming it at the three-year-old girl sitting on the ground, crying in terror.
Gunshots rang out in the apartment complex, and those who heard them immediately called the police.
When the police quickly arrived, Donny had just gotten on his motorcycle and was about to flee the scene.
"Chase him!"
Seeing this, the police chief immediately ordered his men to pursue the motorcycle, while also entering the apartment.
When Lynn arrived at the apartment with his team, there were two bodies on the ground, and the police chief was holding the terrified, crying little girl.
Seeing this, Joey immediately stepped forward and took the little girl from the police chief's hands.
After handing the little girl to Joey, the sheriff stepped forward and said, "Mr. Hall, the killer escaped on a motorcycle, and the police are tracking him."
"The killer is Donny Wardock, who is on the FBI's most wanted list!"
"I understand."
Lynn glanced at the little girl crying in fear in Joey's arms and said to the sheriff, "The deceased's identity is a bit special, so the FBI will take over here."
"Alright."
Nodding, the sheriff led his team away directly.
After the sheriff left, Joey, holding the frightened little girl, asked, "Boss, what should we do with this little girl?"
"That Major has no other relatives."
S.H.I.E.L.D., inside the Helicarrier.
"Oh my god, such a huge Helicarrier can be invisible? Is it using reflectors? Oh my god…"
Seeing Spider-Man's excited tone, Nick Fury turned to Hill and asked, "Who let him come?"
"He's here on behalf of the Illuminati. The Illuminatileader, Lynn, doesn't have time to come right now. He's dealing with the nuclear bomb hard drive matter. So he sent Peter to represent the Illuminati."
"Natasha said that Lynn would come after he finished with the hard drive case."
At this point, Hill glanced at Peter, who was curiously looking around: "We know Peter's identity and his current age, so curiosity is normal."
Just as he was speaking, Tony Stark, wearing his armor, landed on the Helicarrier.
After entering the Helicarrier's interior, Tony Stark looked around, then spread his hands and said, "This is S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Helicarrier? It doesn't feel as spectacular as I imagined."
"Coulson said S.H.I.E.L.D.'s funding was applied for from the World Security Council?"
"Tsk, I'm starting to suspect that some people have embezzled the funds allocated by the World Security Council!"
Hearing Tony's words, Nick Fury turned to Hill and said, "You're right, we should indeed be more lenient with young people like Spider-Man!"
"Hey, Mr. Stark!"
Seeing Tony walk out of his armor, Peter Parkerimmediately stepped forward and greeted him warmly: "I didn't expect Mr. Stark to be here too. Are you also here to help find that alien?"
Seeing Spider-Man greet him warmly, Tony shrugged and said, "Of course they have to invite me. After all, how can this kind of thing be without the greatest genius in this World?"
"What about Lynn? Did he say when New York will be unlocked? Pepper still can't come back from Europe!"
"He hasn't said yet, but I think it should be soon."
"Spider-kid, you've been doing well lately. Keep up the good work and try to replace Lynn as leader."
"Uh, I haven't thought about that…"
Listening to the two of them going back and forth, everyone around shook their heads speechlessly.
No one noticed that Tony Stark took the opportunity to secretly attach a chip to the Helicarrier.
Manhattan street.
"FUXX!"
Watching Donny ride his motorcycle into the alley, Dennisstopped the car, then said to Sean in his earpiece: "Sean, Donny rode his motorcycle and escaped in your direction!"
"Received!"
Hearing Dennis say this, Sean, who was setting up a blockade, immediately drove towards the alley.
When Donny rode his motorcycle out of the alley, Sean drove straight into him.
"Bang!"
After a loud bang, the motorcycle crashed into the Chevrolet, and Donny himself flew out, sliding several meters on the ground.
Quickly getting up from the ground, ignoring the pain from his body, Donny was about to run towards the store.
The next moment, a dozen FBI cars surrounded him.
"Kneel, kneel on the ground immediately!"
"Hands behind your head!"
"FUXX, surrender immediately!"
Looking at dozens of FBI action team members surrounding him with guns, Donny took a deep breath, then knelt on the ground with his hands behind his head!
Sean stepped forward, kicked Donny to the ground, and roughly handcuffed him.
After pulling him up and taking off his helmet, Sean confirmed it was Donny himself, searched him, and then stuffed him into the car!
Inside the car, Sean took out his phone and called Lynn: "Boss, Donny has been caught!"
"But I didn't find the hard drive on him. He must have hidden it somewhere!"
"Take him back to the bureau first!"
After hanging up the phone, Lynn looked at Joey and said, "The person has been caught, let's go back to the bureau!"
Half an hour later, in the interrogation room.
"If I wasn't seeking revenge, you wouldn't have caught me at all!"
Looking at Lynn sitting at the interrogation table, Donnyfelt some regret, but also a sense of satisfaction from having gotten his revenge.
"Your tone is full of annoyance. Are you regretting your decision to seek revenge because you were about to get a billion U.S. dollars and enjoy a rich life, but now you've been caught?"
Hearing Lynn's words, Donny leaned back in his chair and fell silent.
"I'm asking you a question!"
Seeing Donny not answering, Sean immediately walked forward, grabbed his hair, and lifted his head.
"Sean, let him go."
Waving his hand, telling Sean to let him go, Lynn smiled and said, "Was I right just now?"
"Hoo…"
Taking a long breath, Donny looked at Lynn and said, "You're right, I am very annoyed, but I don't regret it."
"Because you simply don't know that every night when I fall asleep, the dead brothers constantly appear in my dreams, asking me to avenge them!"
"If I don't kill that scumbag, then even with a billion U.S. dollars, I won't be able to enjoy life peacefully."
Hearing Donny say this, Lynn nodded and said, "I can understand, but let's talk about the hard drive. Where did you hide it? That warehouse you rented under a false name at the New York port?"
"How could that be?"
Looking at Lynn, Donny said, "That warehouse will be discovered by you sooner or later, so of course I wouldn't put it in the warehouse."
"But I'm not going to tell you!"
Seeing Donny acting like a dead pig unafraid of boiling water, Sean immediately said, "Boss, hand him over to me. I guarantee I can make him talk."
"It's useless. This guy is from the Marine Corps after all, so ordinary interrogation methods won't work."
Rejecting Sean's interrogation method, Lynn looked at Donny: "I understand your revenge for your teammates, but you avenged the wrong target."
"What do you mean?"
Hearing Lynn say this, Donny frowned and asked.
"Why do you think an intelligence major would cling to you so stubbornly? Did you never consider if there was someone else behind that Major?"
"Also, why did the armed forces on that island know your actions in advance and set up an ambush for you?"
"Perhaps the armed forces on that island were supported by someone, and it was also his money bag."
Listening to Lynn's explanation, Donny paused, recalling the process of leading his team on the mission, and the Major's unyielding attitude afterwards.
The more Donny thought about it, the more reasonable it seemed. This was a huge conspiracy, and he was just a scapegoat behind the conspiracy, while that Major was just a pawn of some big shot!
Thinking of this, Donny suddenly looked up at Lynn: "Who is it? Who is that big shot you're talking about?"
"Want to know? How about we make a deal!"
Throwing Donny a cigarette, Lynn smiled and said, "You should know how much power we, the FBI, have in this country, so if you tell me where the hard drive is and who the buyer you contacted is."
"Then I will arrest that big shot, and even send him to the prison where you are held, so you can take revenge with your own hands. What do you think of my proposal?"
"Anyway, you have nothing now. This is your only chance to get revenge on the real killer!"
Listening to Lynn, Donny picked up the cigarette and pondered for a moment, then looked at Lynn and said, "Okay, the hard drive is to the right of the warehouse I rented. I hired someone to rent it two years ago, and the buyer's information is also in that warehouse!"
Hearing Donny's words, Lynn took out his phone and sent a text message to Alice.
A moment later, after receiving Alice's reply, Lynn stood up from his chair, satisfied, and prepared to leave.
"You haven't told me who that big shot is yet! That's what you promised me!"
Seeing Lynn about to leave, Donny immediately questioned him loudly.
Stopping and turning to look at Donny, Lynn smiled and said, "Actually, there's no big shot. I just deduced it based on your actions back then."
"And then I just told you about some unreasonable things as a conspiracy theory."
"Didn't your Marine Corps superiors ever tell you not to easily trust the FBI, especially FBI officials?"
Watching Lynn turn and leave after speaking, Donnycursed with wide, furious eyes.
"FUXX, you damn…"
"Bang!"
As soon as Donny's curse left his mouth, Sean directly pressed his head onto the interrogation table!
"Watch your mouth. If you dare to curse our boss again, I'll rip your tongue out!"
With that, Sean waved his hand, signaling his subordinates to take him out.
As Donny revealed the hidden hard drive and data location, Alice immediately retrieved the hard drive and data and returned to the bureau.
Taking the hard drive from Alice, Lynn said, "Arrest those buyers from Europe. People from the Department of Justice will be here in a while."
"Yes!"
Hearing Lynn's words, Alice nodded, while Sean, standing by, asked curiously, "Boss, were you really deceiving Donny just now? Was there really no big shot like you said?"
Looking at Sean's curious expression, Lynn nodded.
New York, a very secret underground facility.
"Why are you back again?"
Watching his multiverse self appear again, Loki withdrew his gaze from the Tesseract.
Then he asked his multiverse self, "Didn't you say before you left that a multiverse was about to be swallowed?"
"It's beyond saving."
Facing Loki's inquiry, Multiverse Loki shook his head: "When I arrived in that Universe, I found that everything was already too late."
"That Universe is dying, all life, including the ancient gods of the Universe, has been swallowed. It's beyond saving."
Hearing Multiverse Loki say this, Loki, holding the Mind Stone, asked curiously, "Can you tell me how many people you've recruited so far?"
"Many."
"Such as?"
"Rune King Thor, Cosmic Heart Thanos, Supreme Iron God Tony Stark, Six-Gem Ultron, Cosmic Overlord Dr. Doom Viktor Von Doom, and so on, even ancient gods are among my recruits!"
Hearing the names his multiverse self mentioned, Lokiasked curiously, "Then what about you? What kind of god are you now?"
Chapter 90 Tony: I really want to throw this kid down!
"Loki, God of time."
"Alright, Loki, God of time, who in our Universe have you set your sights on now?"
Facing Loki's question, Loki, God of time, did not answer, merely looking at the Tesseract and saying, "You may proceed."
After resolving the hard drive issue, Lynn informed the Military to lift the blockade on New York.
He notified the Illuminati members that a major battle would occur in New York, telling them to prepare.
Lynn then directly piloted a plane towards the coordinates of the Helicarrier that Natasha had given him.
After parking the Kun-style Fighter Jet on the invisible Helicarrier, Lynn entered the Helicarrier, and Nick Furywalked over.
"Welcome to S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Helicarrier, how does it feel?"
Looking at the bald man in front of him, Lynn asked, "Where are the others?"
"Dr. Banner is in the lounge; Natasha is piloting a Kun-style Fighter Jet, taking Tony, Steve, and Spider-Man to apprehend Loki, who appeared in Germany!"
At this point, Nick Fury invited Lynn to his office, saying, "Lynn, I think Loki's arrival on Earth is clearly not right!"
Arriving at Nick Fury's office, Lynn took the coffee offered by Hill and thanked her.
Lynn then asked, "What's not right?"
"After Loki emerged from the portal opened by the Tesseract, he wasn't unfamiliar with his surroundings."
"And his first words upon seeing us were 'What a familiar sense of déjà vu,' and 'Damn it, that guy actually made me lose interest in making a declaration.'"
Hearing Nick Fury say this, Lynn frowned and said, "A familiar sense of déjà vu? One usually only says that after experiencing the same thing or seeing the same scene."
"Do you mean Loki has used this method to conquer other Planets before?"
"I don't know, but someone told me there's only one Tesseract!"
Looking at Lynn, Nick Fury said, "I'm more interested in knowing who that 'damn guy' he mentioned is, and what he did to make Loki lose interest in making a declaration of conquest!"
The person Nick referred to should be Captain Marvel.
As for the person Loki mentioned, Lynn currently doesn't know.
When Natasha told him that the New York battle was brought forward, Lynn was somewhat confused, and now, he learned from Nick Fury that Loki said those two strange things after arriving on Earth.
So, what exactly happened in between?
It couldn't be that Loki is also a transmigrator, or that Lokiknows the future, could it?
Seeing Lynn deep in thought, Nick Fury said, "Lynn, what do you think of the Avengers initiative?"
"It's excellent. Since the Universe is full of dangers, then Earth needs a Guardian force composed of super-powered individuals."
"That was also my reason for founding the Illuminati, after all, I heard the Director mention the secrets of Area 51!"
Hearing Lynn's answer, Nick Fury smiled and said, "Indeed, but the Avengers I've chosen have diverse personalities, and they need an excellent leader."
"Tony's personality is too arrogant; he's not good at teamwork. Steve hasn't truly integrated into this Worldyet."
"As for Dr. Banner and the others, everyone has their own flaws."
"So, Lynn..."
"You want me to be the leader of this Avengers team?"
Looking at Nick Fury, Lynn said, "I already have the Illuminati."
"I know, but the Illuminati and the Avengers don't conflict."
"Let's talk about it later. The most important thing right now is to solve the Current problem!"
With that, Lynn stood up and said, "You don't mind if I look around the Helicarrier, do you?"
"Of course, I also want to know how the Deputy Directorof the New York FBI evaluates our S.H.I.E.L.D.Helicarrier!"
Watching Lynn leave, Nick Fury's eyes were filled with admiration.
"Mr. Hall!"
Seeing Lynn wandering around the Helicarrier, Sitwellnodded in greeting.
He had already learned from Pierce that Lynn was one of them, so he greeted him naturally.
"Where is Dr. Banner's lounge?"
Upon seeing Sitwell, Lynn asked.
"I'll take you there."
Guiding Lynn, Sitwell walked and whispered, "Mr. Piercewas very happy to learn that you became one of us. He once suggested to James Duke that he wanted you to join S.H.I.E.L.D."
"And to get you, Mr. Pierce even offered very generous terms, but Mr. James Duke refused."
Hearing Sitwell's words, Lynn said, "I didn't expect to be valued by Mr. Pierce. That's quite surprising."
"However, compared to S.H.I.E.L.D., the FBI is more suitable for me."
"Of course, Mr. James Duke said the same thing, and Mr. Pierce felt quite regretful about it."
"However, Mr. Pierce already knows about the Avengersinitiative, so he also hopes to see you become the leader of this team."
Hearing Sitwell's words, Lynn smiled and shrugged, saying no more.
"This is Mr. Bruce Banner's lounge."
Pointing to the room in front of them, Sitwell smiled and said, "Mr. Hall, if there's nothing else, I'll be going. I still have work to do!"
"Thank you."
Nodding, Lynn stepped forward and knocked on Dr. Banner's door.
At the same time, on the Kun-style Fighter Jet.
"Uh, Natasha, do I need to jump down too?"
Watching Thor take Loki, Tony rushed out, and Captainjumped down with a parachute.
Peter Parker turned to Natasha and asked.
"You should stay seated. Let the adults handle it!"
"I'm an adult, Ms. Natasha, but I think you have a point."
Sitting back in his seat, Peter Parker shrugged and said, "I didn't expect to actually meet a deity from Norse mythology."
After Loki was captured and brought back, he was immediately locked in a cage.
In the conference room, watching Nick Fury and Lokiconverse, Peter Parker excitedly told Lynn everything that happened during Loki's capture.
"I always feel like things aren't that simple."
Turning to Lynn, Natasha said, "Since he can control Barton with that Soul Scepter, then he should know that once he shows up in Germany, we'll definitely come after him."
"Unless Loki deliberately allowed himself to be caught."
Hearing Natasha say this, Thor, who was nearby, said, "That's not impossible. Loki has always liked to play some tricks and schemes."
"I can't even remember how many times he's deceived me since childhood."
"So what's Loki's purpose in deliberately getting caught?"
Looking at everyone, Steve said, "Unless he wants to get something on this Helicarrier."
"Dr. Banner!"
Facing Steve's question, Lynn said, "During Loki and Nick Fury's conversation just now, Loki intentionally or unintentionally mentioned Dr. Banner several times."
"Natasha also said that Loki used the Soul Scepter to control Clint Barton. Since he controlled Barton, he should understand that we are his biggest opponents in conquering Earth."
At this point, Lynn stood up and walked to the Mind Stone: "If we turn on each other, then no one can stop him from conquering Earth."
"And, didn't any of you feel that this Soul Scepter can unintentionally influence people's minds?"
Hearing Lynn say this, Peter Parker was the first to speak: "I felt it, Lynn. My Spider-Sense told me this thing is very dangerous, but I saw Captain bring the Soul Scepter back and nothing happened."
"So I thought the Soul Scepter wouldn't be dangerous as long as it wasn't in Loki's hands."
Hearing Lynn and Peter's conversation, Natasha said, "In that case, I'll have someone put the Soul Scepter away first."
"Also, I agree with Lynn's statement. Loki wants us to turn on each other."
"His purpose in taking Dr. Selvig is to use the Tesseract to open a portal."
Dr. Banner looked at everyone and said, "As long as the portal is opened, his alien army can come to Earth."
"So I think we should currently focus our attention on the Tesseract."
"Iridium!"
Hearing Dr. Banner's words, Tony said, "Iridium can act as a stabilizer; it can prevent the opened portal from collapsing."
"As long as there's enough iridium, Loki can make the portal as big and last as long as he wants. As for other materials, that's not a problem for Barton!"
At this point, Tony Stark looked at everyone and said, "Everyone, am I the only one who cares what S.H.I.E.L.D.has been doing with the Tesseract all these years?"
"Like a weapon for World conquest?"
"Tony, you and Dr. Banner continue to track the Tesseract."
Turning to face everyone, Lynn said, "I'll go talk to Lokiand see if I can get anything from him."
"No problem!"
Hearing Lynn say this, Tony shrugged his shoulders: "Hey, Spider-Boy, come with us. I can teach you a few tricks."
"Do you want me to go with you?"
Hearing that Lynn was going to interrogate Loki, Natashaasked.
"I'm just going to talk to him."
With that, Lynn walked towards the transparent containment unit where Loki was held.
Lynn really wanted to know why the New York battle happened early.
And what the bald man told Lynn, those two sentences Loki said upon arriving on Earth, were clearly very unusual.
Lynn even speculated now that Loki already knew what would happen in the future, which is why he said those two sentences.
As for the guy Loki mentioned, Lynn was certain it was definitely not Thanos!
Seeing Lynn approach the transparent containment unit, Loki's lips suddenly curved upwards: "Lynn Hall, New York FBI Deputy Director, Illuminati leader."
"Wow, you hold an unusual position in this city. How about we make a deal? If you choose to pledge allegiance to me, then once I conquer Earth, I can give you even higher power and status!"
[Loki Odinson Favorability: 1]
[Loki, God of time, Odinson Favorability: 5]
Seeing the system suddenly display two prompts, Lynnwas clearly surprised.
Loki, God of time?
Was the Loki who eventually sat on the throne at the Time Variance Authority and became a deity also here?
Clearly, Loki, God of time, was not referring to the Loki in front of him.
So, the moment he saw the system prompt, Lynnunderstood why the New York battle had happened early.
This definitely had a lot to do with Loki, God of time.
However, what was Loki, God of time's purpose in doing this?
"Why aren't you speaking?"
Seeing Lynn remain silent, Loki spread his hands and smiled, "Are you not satisfied with my proposal? Then I'll raise the stakes. What if I make you one of only two people on Earth who can give orders—"
"Fake."
Knowing the reason why the New York battle happened early, Lynn looked at Loki, and his confusion lessened.
"What's fake?"
Looking at Lynn, Loki asked.
"Loki, what you just said about giving me higher power and status after conquering Earth is fake, and your capture was probably intentional."
Taking a step forward, Lynn looked at Loki in the transparent containment unit and said, "Do you know? Joining our FBI requires training, and to reach a higher position, you need to learn more skills."
"For example, criminal psychology. From those few words you just said to me, I can clearly sense your insincerity. I even feel that you're the only one on this Helicarrier who wants to stay here, aren't you?"
"Oh?"
Hearing Lynn say this, Loki also became interested: "Then why do you think I deliberately allowed myself to be captured?"
"They probably want us to fight amongst ourselves, Loki. What's your next plan?"
"Heh."
Hearing Lynn directly ask about his plan, Loki took a step back, spread his hands, and chuckled, "I thought you were more impressive. Is this really your interrogation method? How disappointing."
"Fake!"
Looking at Loki, Lynn said, "Judging by your expression, your sarcasm rings a little hollow."
"So, Loki, where do you plan to open a wormhole with the Tesseract to bring your alien army down? Los Angeles? Washington? New York? Oh, it's New York!"
Looking at Loki, Lynn continued, "But since you're caught here, how will you command your alien army? Do you have a way to escape? Or will someone come to rescue you?"
"It seems to be the latter. If so, who is coming to save you? Barton or the aliens?"
"It's Barton. So he'll attack this carrier and make Dr. Banner transform, causing internal strife among us, so you can escape, right?"
Loki, who had been wearing a mocking smile, had his smile freeze.
Watching this guy stare at his expression and almost guess his entire upcoming "plan," Loki suddenly felt as if he had been stripped bare.
"Not going to continue talking? I thought our conversation was quite pleasant!"
Looking at Loki, who had turned his back to him, Lynnasked with a smile.
"God of Lies and Mischief? Heh…"
Hearing the hint of teasing in Lynn's tone, Loki's expression was somewhat displeased.
He was about to turn around but then realized that Lynnwas deliberately provoking him, trying to get more information out of him.
Thinking of this, Loki chuckled, then sat on the ground with his eyes closed, looking as if he didn't care what Lynn said.
Seeing Loki's actions, Lynn shrugged, "It looks like you're not going to continue communicating, but overall, our conversation was quite pleasant."
With that, Lynn turned and left.
After Lynn left, Loki remained seated in the transparent tube with his eyes closed.
But his soul floated out of his body: "This magic is quite convenient. By the way, is he the guy you wanted to recruit?"
In the conference room.
Seeing Lynn return, Thor immediately stepped forward, "By Odin, Lynn, how did you do that? Loki's tricks have always been a headache, but you could tell his thoughts just from his expression?"
"This is simply incredible!"
Seeing Loki get flustered, the smile on Thor's face was impossible to hide.
After all, he had been outwitted by Loki countless times over the years.
[Thor Odinson's favorability: 2]
Seeing Thor laughing heartily, Lynn spread his hands, "Isn't this a very simple matter?"
Lynn was so nonchalant, as if making Loki flustered was not worth mentioning at all.
Thor was stunned, then looked at the others.
It was as if he was asking them, "Is it really that simple?"
Facing Thor's gaze, everyone spread their hands at him.
Ignoring the somewhat bewildered Thor, Lynn looked at everyone, "You should have heard just now that Loki's plan is to open a wormhole in New York."
"So Natasha, have the satellites monitor every corner of New York. Once Dr. Selvig appears with the Tesseract, apprehend him immediately."
"Also, this carrier needs to strengthen its defenses. Clintwill lead people to attack this carrier!"
"No problem."
Hearing Lynn say that, Hill, who was beside him, said, "I will have the action team strengthen the airspace around the carrier."
"Ms. Maria, my intention is to let Clint attack and enter, not to drive away or shoot down his fighter jet!"
Looking at Hill, Lynn said seriously, "Clint is currently controlled by Loki, so this is our best opportunity to capture him."
"Once he enters the carrier, we can find a way to break the control over him and restore him to normal!"
"I agree with Lynn's suggestion."
Steve nodded and said, "As long as we can capture Clint, we can make him sober up and thus cut off one of Loki's arms!"
"What do you mean cut off Loki's arm?"
Hearing Steve's words, Thor frowned, "He is my brother. Although he is preparing to invade Earth, he is still Asgardian…"
"It's just a metaphor, Thor, no one is actually going to cut off Loki's arm."
Getting up from her chair, Natasha said, "I'll go prepare."
"I'll help."
After glancing at Lynn, Hill and Natasha left together.
Returning to the lounge S.H.I.E.L.D. had prepared for him, Lynn took out his phone and texted Gwen.
As they were chatting, Steve pushed the door open and walked in.
Seeing Steve enter, Lynn asked with a smile, "Is something wrong, Steve?"
"Actually, it's nothing major."
Sitting across from Lynn, Steve said, "Lynn, what do you think of the Avengers proposed by Fury?"
"A very good idea, but it's not suitable for me."
Pouring Steve a cup of coffee and pushing it over, Lynnsaid with a smile, "Don't forget I'm the Deputy Director of the FBI. Founding the Illuminati is already a bit inappropriate. If I join the Avengers again, then…"
"Besides, I'm not interested in becoming an Avenger."
Hearing Lynn's straightforward refusal, Steve was not surprised, "I told Fury the same thing, but he hoped I could persuade you."
"So you're here to be a lobbyist?"
"Not really."
Picking up the coffee and taking a sip, Steve said, "I'm just curious what S.H.I.E.L.D. has been creating with the Tesseract's energy during the decades they've had it."
"Maybe it's really like Tony said, they've created weapons of mass destruction!"
"If you're curious, then go find the answer."
Looking at Steve, Lynn smiled, "If S.H.I.E.L.D. really created weapons, then at this critical moment, they would definitely bring those weapons onto this carrier!"
At the same time, in the laboratory.
"Did you learn it?"
Operating and explaining to Dr. Banner, Tony Starklooked at Peter Parker and said, "Bruce and I have broken down the principles and explained them to you, so don't tell me you didn't understand."
"Otherwise, I'll really throw you off the carrier."
Facing Tony's "threat," Peter Parker hurriedly said, "Of course I understood, Mr. Stark. Although I'm only a freshman in college, I've self-studied these courses before."
"But Mr. Stark, the purpose of you calling me here shouldn't be that simple, right?"
Hearing Peter's question, Tony Stark smiled at Dr. Banner, "See, young people nowadays are getting smarter."
"Although I've been hiding in Africa, I've also learned about major events in New York through the internet, like the Lizardman incident a while ago."
"A young man who can be valued by Mr. Hall and recruited into the Illuminati is certainly not simple."
At this point, Dr. Banner asked Peter Parker, "Spider-Man, are you a freshman in college?"
"Yes, Mr. Banner."
"Which university are you studying at?"
"New York… I'm studying at a university in New York."
Hearing Peter's answer, Dr. Banner looked at Tony and smiled, "See? Young people nowadays are still very quick to react."
Seeing these two digging pits for him, Peter Parkerpursed his lips.
Through actual contact, Peter found that their true personalities were completely different from what he had imagined.
"Alright, let's not talk about these things. Spider-Kid, since Lynn asked you to come over, he must have a mission for you, right?"
Looking at Peter, Tony Stark said, "Can you tell me what kind of mission Lynn gave you?"
Seeing Peter Parker remain silent, Tony Stark continued, "Don't worry, Lynn and I are friends, so you can trust me."
Facing Tony's gaze, Peter Parker silently raised his hand and made a zipping motion over his mouth.
Although Lynn always liked to drink all his good wine and snatch the prettiest, longest-legged beauties at parties, Tony Stark trusted Lynn one hundred percent.
After all, he was the one who rescued him from the Middle East and saved Pepper more than once.
But as for S.H.I.E.L.D., Tony Stark didn't trust them.
Even though Steve and Natasha were also with S.H.I.E.L.D.
So Tony wanted to know Lynn's plans through Peter Parker, and then stand by Lynn's side.
But seeing Peter Parker close his mouth, looking as if he wouldn't say anything even if he were beaten to death, Tony shrugged, then said, "If you don't want to say, then don't. After the Loki incident is over, I'll find Lynn to join the Illuminati. Spider-Kid, I'll teach you well then."
"Oh, and Bruce, you can also try joining the Illuminati."
"Me?"
Facing Tony's question, Dr. Banner shrugged, "I'll pass. Wherever the Hulk appears, he brings great disaster."
"So after we find the Tesseract, I'll return to Africa. I don't want to bring disaster to New York again."
Hearing Dr. Banner say that, Tony spread his hands, "Don't be so gloomy. Maybe we can find a way to control that big green guy."
"For example, once the big green guy comes out, let our Spider-Kid deal with it."
Facing Tony's sideways, "unfriendly" threat, Peter Parkercovered his mouth and remained silent.
He could learn knowledge not found in textbooks by staying with Mr. Stark, but he would absolutely not betray Lynn!
As the three of them were talking, a commotion suddenly came from outside.
Accompanied by a series of booming explosions, an alarm also sounded in the laboratory.
The moment the alarm sounded, Peter Parkerimmediately turned and ran outside.
After only two steps, he stopped and said to Tony Stark, "Mr. Stark, you'd best put on your armor."
"Go do what Lynn told you to do!"
Waving at Peter, Tony Stark turned to Dr. Banner and said, "Control yourself."
"I'll try."
Watching Tony turn and run towards where his armor was kept, Dr. Banner turned to go to the lounge.
"Bang!"
"Bang, bang, bang!"
After an elite team led by Barton entered the carrier, they immediately dispersed without hesitation, causing destruction in various directions of the carrier.
The carrier was prepared because of Lynn, so when this team rushed in, they were met with a barrage of bullets.
Seeing his subordinates being trapped and eliminated by S.H.I.E.L.D. personnel, Barton took out an arrow and shot it out.
The arrow stuck into the S.H.I.E.L.D. soldiers' feet, and before these soldiers could react, the arrowhead instantly released a strong Current, directly electrocuting the S.H.I.E.L.D. soldiers into convulsions.
He took out another arrow and shot it towards the other side, and the next second, a violent explosion directly erupted on the carrier.
Having done all this, Clint Barton turned to his subordinates and said, "Proceed as planned!"
"Yes!"
Hearing Barton's command, the other soldiers dispersed in all directions.
Watching his subordinates scatter to carry out orders, Barton was about to move forward when Natasha, who had rushed over, blocked his path.
"Indeed, when it comes to interrogating criminals, Lynn is more formidable."
"Barton, it's time for you to sober up!"
Seeing Natasha blocking his way, Barton drew an arrow and aimed it at Natasha, "I'm very sober right now."
As his voice fell, the arrow shot directly towards Natasha's head.
Dodging the arrow Barton shot, Natasha rushed towards Barton without hesitation.
In a flash, the two were already engaged in battle, and for a time, they fought to a standstill.
At the same time, inside the carrier's corridor.
A three-meter-tall, ugly and grotesque fellow stood in front of Lynn Hall, his sharp spiked club pointed directly at Lynn Hall.
Looking at the fellow blocking his way, Lynn Hall frowned and said, "Who are you again?"
This ugly and grotesque fellow resembled Black Dwarf, one of Thanos's subordinates, but he wasn't Black Dwarf.
Lynn Hall was certain that this strange fellow in front of him was definitely not one of the Black Order.
So, this guy couldn't have been created by Loki, God of time, could he?
In response to Lynn Hall's question, the tall, ugly fellow opened his mouth and spoke a lot of words Lynn Hallcouldn't understand.
Then he picked up his spiked club and swung it at Lynn Hall.
Dodging the big guy's attack, Lynn Hall flashed in front of him and landed a heavy punch directly on his waist.
"Boom."
The punch hitting the big guy's body produced a sound similar to metal clashing.
After retreating several steps, the big guy stared at Lynn Hall with bloodshot eyes, then swung his spiked club and continued to smash it at Lynn Hall.
Seeing that the big guy in front of him was not injured after being punched in the body, Lynn Hall's interest immediately increased.
One must know that although he didn't use his full strength just now, that punch had at least tens of tons of force.
Once again dodging the spiked club's attack, Lynn Hallclosed in, his fists raining down on the big guy's body like raindrops.
Passively enduring the heavy blows of Lynn Hall's every punch, the big guy's body constantly retreated.
Whenever he swung his spiked club, trying to smash Lynn Hall into a pulp, Lynn Hall easily dodged it.
Not only that, but every time he dodged one of the big guy's attacks, Lynn Hall was able to accurately seize the combat gap and land more than ten punches.
Gradually, as the sound of metal clashing continuously rang out, this massive fellow was directly suppressed by Lynn Hall.
[Buno Kalu's favorability: -7]
[Buno Kalu's favorability: -8]
[Buno Kalu's favorability: -9]
Listening to the system prompt, the big guy, who was being beaten down by him, had his favorability stop at -9 and no longer decrease.
Lynn Hall drew two daggers from his waist, teleported behind him, and then stabbed directly at his waist.
"Crack..."
The daggers did not penetrate Buno Kalu's body; instead, they shattered directly.
Seeing this, Lynn Hall leaped directly onto his shoulder, and before he could grab him with both hands, he used the broken dagger to stab him fiercely in the eye socket.
"Roar!"
The intense pain made the big guy roar, and his movements became much more violent.
But as Lynn Hall flipped over and jumped off his shoulder, the continuously roaring big guy's body also crashed to the ground.
[You killed Buno Kalu with -9 favorability, gaining the new ability Absolute Defense.]
He opened the system and saw that the system bar showed "Absolute Defense LV1 [0/2000]".
Lynn Hall then directly upgraded Absolute Defense to LV3.
After closing the system, his Spider-Sense wildly warned him, and Lynn Hall immediately looked behind him vigilantly.
The corridor behind Lynn Hall was empty, with nothing there, yet his Spider-Sense was frantically warning him.
Closing his eyes and amplifying his Spider-Sense, the next second Lynn Hall opened his eyes, and his gaze met Loki, God of time's directly.
Although Lynn Hall still couldn't see the person in front of him, he could clearly sense a rough outline.
Seeing that Lynn Hall's eyes actually met his, Loki, God of time, smiled, "Interesting."
He glanced at the big guy of the Buno Kalu race, whom he had brought from other Universes, lying on the ground, easily killed by Lynn Hall.
Loki, God of time, turned and disappeared in front of Lynn Hall.
As the God of time left, Lynn Hall's Spider-Sensewarning gradually disappeared.
Lynn Hall couldn't be sure if the guy who was peeking at him was Loki, God of time.
However, his Spider-Sense told Lynn Hall that this guy was really strong!
Taking a deep breath, Lynn Hall's furrowed brows slowly relaxed.
It seems that he is still too weak for now!
At the same time, inside the transparent container where Loki was imprisoned.
Seeing Thor trapped in the transparent container, and Loki manipulating the control panel, preparing to throw Thor down.
Coulson took down Loki's subordinate, then raised the S.H.I.E.L.D. energy gun and said to Loki, "Please step away from the control panel."
As he spoke, Coulson walked towards Loki and said, "This is the latest weapon developed by S.H.I.E.L.D. I don't know its power yet. Do you want to try it?"
Before he could finish speaking, Loki appeared behind Coulson, and the Soul Scepter in his hand stabbed directly at Coulson!
"No!!!"
Seeing this, Thor in the transparent container immediately roared.
At the critical moment, Peter Parker swung his web, kicking away Loki, who was about to stab Coulson to death, then said to Loki, "I knew Lynn Hall was right to have me watch you!"
"But wasn't this Soul Scepter hidden by Ms. Natasha and the others? How did you get it?"
"It couldn't be that those subordinates you controlled helped you get it back, could it? Natasha said the place where the Soul Scepter was hidden was heavily guarded... Oh my God!"
Seeing that he was halfway through his sentence, Lokihad just gotten up when Coulson used the energy gun to blast him away.
Peter Parker asked curiously, "Is this the energy gun developed by S.H.I.E.L.D.? Cool."
Hearing Peter's curiosity, Coulson held the energy gun and looked at him: "Thank you, Spider-Man, if it weren't for you, I would probably be dead by now."
In response to Coulson's thanks, Peter Parkerimmediately said, "You're welcome, Mr. Coulson, Lynn Hall asked me to do this. He said that once Loki escaped from the transparent container, I should find him immediately!"
"I didn't expect... Watch out!"
Watching Loki get up from the ground and release an energy attack with the Soul Scepter, Peter Parkerimmediately pulled Coulson and dodged.
Peter Parker pulled Coulson to dodge this energy attack, but the energy hit the transparent container behind them.
Watching Thor, who was trapped in the transparent container, fall down with the container, Peter Parkerimmediately held his head and said, "Oh my god..."
"Loki, you actually killed your brother!"
He quickly rushed towards Loki, but when he was less than two meters away from Loki, Peter Parker was blocked by an invisible energy barrier.
"What is this? Damn it, what have you done again?"
He punched the transparent barrier in front of him, but Peter found that this barrier could not be broken by brute force at all.
"Heh, interesting little fellow!"
Loki glanced at Peter Parker, then held the Soul Scepterand turned to disappear in front of him.
Ten minutes later, in the conference room.
Listening to Peter Parker's narration, Lynn Hall nodded.
The invisible transparent barrier separating Peter and Loki, and the big monster he encountered in the corridor.
It seems that Loki, God of time, is determined to make the Battle of New York happen!
Even if Loki has no chance of winning this battle!
Thinking of this, Lynn Hall took out his phone and sent a few text messages.
Since Loki, God of time, wants to "watch the show," then he will make this show even more exciting!
Illuminati Base.
After receiving Lynn Hall's text message, Professor Xlooked at Jean Grey beside him and said, "Jean, gather the Illuminati members, and at the same time, gather all X-Men. New York is about to face an alien invasion!"
Hearing Professor X say this, Jean Grey immediately nodded: "Understood, Professor, I'll have Logan bring Colossus and the others over right away."
Texas, inside a certain farm.
After receiving the text message, Johnny Blaze shook his head: "I shouldn't have told him that ever since I saved that Son of the Devil, I've had the ability to transform during the day!"
After speaking, Johnny Blaze put away his phone and then went to his motorcycle.
Inside an island.
Looking at the message he received in his hand, Magnetostood up and said, "Get ready, gather the Brotherhood of Mutants members and head to New York immediately!"
"Eric, what happened?"
Hearing Magneto's words, Mystique Raven frowned and said, "The United States has always been hunting down our Brotherhood of Mutants members. If we rush to New York now, wouldn't that be walking into a trap?"
Facing Raven's question, Magneto said, "I just received a text message from Lynn Hall that New York will be invaded by aliens."
"Leader, could this Lynn Hall be deliberately tricking us into going to New York to wipe us all out?"
Hearing Magneto's words, one of the Brotherhood of Mutants members said, "And even if New York is invaded by aliens, what does that have to do with our Brotherhood of Mutants?"
"After all, we..."
"Although I have always believed that Mutants are the future of this World, we must let those aliens know that Earth is our territory!"
Looking at the questioning subordinate, Magneto waved his hand and said, "Depart immediately!"
"Yes!"
Hearing Magneto's determination, the other subordinates could not persuade him at all and could only prepare for the battle in New York.
On S.H.I.E.L.D.'s carrier.
"According to Thor's description, Loki is the type of person who craves attention, praise, and the worship of everyone."
"So, according to Loki's personality, to open a wormhole in New York and let the whole World know that he brought aliens to invade Earth..."
"The most conspicuous place would undoubtedly be Stark Tower!"
"What?"
Hearing Lynn Hall say this, Tony Stark was stunned: "Damn it, he really knows how to pick a spot!"
"Prepare for battle."
Looking at everyone present, Lynn Hall said, "This war is unavoidable for us!"
As everyone went to prepare, Nick Fury looked at Lynn Hall and said, "It looks like you're already prepared for war."
Hearing Fury's words, Lynn Hall said, "Do you think it can still be avoided?"
