Chapter 378: Asking for a monthly ticket for death) 4500 words for the month at the end of the month
The dwarf doctor Edgar Sisko finally left in despair and continued the next experiment. After he left, a tall female researcher walked up to Nick Fury at some point.
"You know how terrifying that thing is, right, Nick Fury." This woman may not be top-notch in appearance, but combined with her voice and body shape, she gives people a feeling of unparalleled elegance. It makes people feel sad unconsciously.
Have a good impression.
"Barbara Minerva...you talk too much." Nick Fury did not look at the woman but reminded her very coldly not to forget his duty.
The woman was not angry because of Nick Fury's words. She just shrugged and took out a lollipop from her pocket. She held the lollipop in her mouth and said nonchalantly: "I don't want to meddle in your business.
I just don’t want your arrogance to kill me too.”
Nick Fury frowned and seemed to be affected by the woman's words, but he immediately stopped worrying about the topic.
"Barbara Minerva, you should know that there are more than just us humans in this world, and those ancient and evil guys are peeking at the world all the time. We must arm ourselves!"
These words seemed to be convincing Barbara Minerva, and they seemed to be convincing himself.
"Really? Arm you with the God of War Ares? Are you sure this won't be an opportunity to destroy mankind? Didn't anyone tell you that that madman almost destroyed the entire world, if it weren't for those legendary stories decades ago?
A hero appeared to stop him, and he succeeded. But now you are dreaming of using his power to protect the world in your mouth? "
Barbara Minerva clearly found Nick Fury's actions ridiculous and showed no mercy.
"That's enough, Barbara Minerva, have you forgotten your identity? You are just a criminal with many crimes. All you have to do is complete the task we gave you and find those ancient artifacts with magical power.
, to offset the crime you committed."
Here I would like to introduce Barbara Minerva. This woman is not called this name at all. It is just one of her dozens of aliases, and she just happens to be using this alias now. As for her real name, I’m sorry.
, except for herself, no one knows. Even SHIELD only knows that she is British, but was born in Idaho. There has always been a blank about her childhood experience. SHIELD caught her
At that time, I also thought about interrogating her past, but unfortunately, this woman has been telling nonsense. So far, she has provided SHIELD with more than thirty versions, but none of them are true.
But this woman does have abilities. She can be said to be a replica of Black Widow. If her identity and background were not too complicated, SHIELD would really have the intention to completely absorb her and become a signature female agent after Black Widow.
"Yes, yes, I will work hard." Faced with Nick Fury's scolding, Barbara didn't care at all. She just raised her hand casually, which was considered a response to Nick Fury.
This woman not only has a unique talent for crime, but she is also one of the world's best connoisseurs and archaeologists of ancient artifacts. What's even more rare is that she is also familiar with many unknown legends and secrets. This makes her a
S.H.I.E.L.D.'s perfect collection of dangerous ancient artifacts.
After saying this, Barbara chewed the lollipop into pieces, swallowed it in one gulp, and then walked outside very lazily.
"What are you going to do?" Looking at this cat-like woman, Nick Fury also had a headache. Her personality is always so unpredictable and she does whatever she wants.
"Didn't you ask me to work hard?" Barbara asked in surprise.
Nick Fury choked for a moment, and then said angrily: "I'm asking you what you want to do?"
"Go to Chicago! I found the God-killing Blade of the Cheetah Goddess of the Thane tribe in Africa at the Art Institute of Chicago. I plan to get it and then... take a vacation! I must take a vacation! Don't you know that a woman's biggest enemy is fatigue?
I have been working continuously for several months, I must take a vacation, otherwise, I will go to the guild to sue you!"
Nick Fury really wanted to tell this woman that you are not a regular employee at all, you are just a gangster, and you are still in the guild, and you haven't even joined the company! But after thinking about it, he felt that there was no point in talking about these things with this woman.
Meaning, he didn't say anything at all, he just waved his hand impatiently and told her to get out.
After driving the people away, Nick Fury remembered again that Chicago was not peaceful recently. But then he thought about it, this woman was so smart that she could handle this little thing by herself, so she quickly put the matter aside.
Stay tuned for experiments.
This experiment is very simple. It uses ultra-high frequency gamma ray beams to illuminate the statue. This is an extension of Bruce Banner’s gamma ray bomb in the military. Although it cannot cause direct damage, it has unparalleled
Penetrating power can shine through anything. Edgar Sisko hopes to use the numerical changes after gamma rays penetrate the statue to analyze the possible strange abilities of the statue.
In fact, Edgar Sisko himself was very reluctant to do this research. No scientist would like to conduct so-called research on an unknown item while being completely kept in the dark. Unfortunately, Edgar Sisko
Degar Sisko has a weakness that S.H.I.E.L.D.
He is short of money. Every scientist has his or her own research topics of interest, and Edgar Sisko is no exception. His research directions are telepathy, mental control, creating illusions, and other research similar to mental power.
, he believes that the human body has limits, but the spirit does not. This is a very promising research direction. Unfortunately, no investors are interested in this kind of research project that seems very trivial. The key is that this thing cannot be done at all.
To create profits, Edgar Sisko never thought of using his research to create profits.
Therefore, his research has been at a stagnant stage. He studies quietly by himself, with no dedicated laboratory, no research assistants, and no sufficient funds. You must know that scientific research is always a costly matter, and nothing else
Say, even volunteers for research need money.
At this time, SHIELD came over and expressed its willingness to invest. This made Edgar Sisko very excited, but in return, he had to work for SHIELD.
It doesn't matter, he doesn't care where he works.
But the research in front of him... made him very unhappy.
"The countdown has begun, everyone retreats behind the protection."
"10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1, start!"
A green beam of light gathered on an instrument, and finally rushed towards the statue with a buzzing sound. Soon the statue was illuminated transparently, and light continued to pass through the statue and be received by the receiver. Edgar Sisko would appear from time to time.
While observing the changes in the statue, he also stared closely at his computer, where various values were constantly changing.
Everything is fine, this thing is just a piece of marble!
Edgar Sisko kept muttering in his heart, feeling that SHIELD was really amusing himself. You must know that they have been working on this broken statue for three consecutive years, and during this period he even stopped his own research!
Sometimes Edgar Sisko didn't even know if it was right to accept SHIELD's invitation. Indeed, SHIELD had fulfilled its promise and would allocate him a lot of research funds every year, but the problem was that he simply didn't have the time.
Continuing my own research, I have money but no time. What is the difference between this and before?
But he didn't dare to give up his options. After all, having money meant having opportunities. If he didn't have money or time, he would be unlucky.
Just when Dr. Dwarf was feeling dissatisfied in his heart, suddenly both the computer and various instruments started to sound alarms!
Just now, their receivers started not receiving any gamma rays!
The dwarf doctor quickly looked up and saw that the statue absorbed all the rays into the statue like a sponge absorbing water!
Nick Fury roughly pushed away a researcher, stood in front of the instrument, and asked nervously: "What's going on?!"
"I...I don't know..." Edgar Sisko really couldn't explain this phenomenon.
It was also at this time that the statue changed again. The green statue that was originally illuminated by gamma rays suddenly began to emit bursts of golden light.
"Doctor! The power of the gamma generator has exceeded the standard! It must be shut down immediately! Otherwise..."
Everyone present understands the consequences of this. Gamma rays have extremely strong penetrating ability. When the human body is exposed to gamma rays, the gamma rays can enter the interior of the human body and ionize with the cells in the body. The ionization produces
The ions can erode complex organic molecules, such as proteins, nucleic acids and enzymes, which are the main components of living cell tissues. Once they are destroyed, the normal chemical processes in the human body will be interfered with, and in serious cases, cells can be damaged.
die.
With the gamma ray dose at the site, if an explosion occurred, no one present would survive!
"Hurry up and shut it down!!!" Edgar shouted immediately, not caring about the experiment at all.
Although Nick Fury also wanted to know what would happen next, he was not stupid. The research could be carried out later and there was no need to risk his own life, so he did not stop it.
"The switch has failed and must be turned off manually!"
"Then turn off the power immediately!"
Click! Touch!
There was a sound of the blade breaking, and then another explosion. The laboratory suddenly went dark, and then the emergency lights came on.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the statues in the testing site. Apart from the rising heat, there was nothing unusual about them.
Nick Fury breathed a sigh of relief. This time it was not without gain. He was just about to praise Edgar, but found that Edgar was looking at the statue stupidly, as if his whole person was broken. Nick Fury
I don’t think it’s strange at all. After all, most people in this world will never see this kind of scene in their lifetime. Haven’t you seen other researchers with similar expressions?
Just when Nick Fury was thinking this, disaster had struck.
"Hey, dwarf, you want it all? I can give it to you!"
"You...who are you?" Edgar found that he couldn't move, couldn't speak, couldn't move his eyes, like a statue. He could only shout in his heart.
Unexpectedly, the other party could hear his shout.
"Interesting, aren't you facing me? Why are you asking such stupid questions?"
"God of War...Ares!!!!" Edgar is not stupid, so he can naturally relate to it.
"Yes, dwarf, I have seen your inner desire. You want to succeed, and you want the whole world to pay attention to you. Because you were born a dwarf and ugly, you are always excluded by girls in your relationships, so you have a strong desire for women.
Hatred, you are afraid of women, you hate women, you want them to know how great you are! Come on, be loyal to me, I can give you everything you want, including the wealth, prestige, and handsome appearance you desire,
I can give you a strong body!"
That voice sounded in Edgar's heart, like a whisper from hell, full of fatal temptations. Edgar was very smart, with a terrifying IQ of 248. He could understand that this kind of devil's temptation was definitely not a good thing.
, but understanding is one thing, desire is another. He really wants everything that voice said.
"I...I...I do!"
"Hahaha, very good, very good, then you do as I say!" Ares said. Then a stream of information silently entered Edgar's mind, and there was something he needed to do.
everything of!
"ah!"
Edgar suddenly woke up.
Nick Fury looked over and asked: "What's wrong?"
Edgar's reaction was very quick. He didn't seem to have any abnormalities on the surface, but he still pretended to be frightened: "Then... what is that? What the hell is that? Why did this happen? That's not a statue.
?"
Suspicious people like Nick Fury have been fooled by him.
"This is exactly what we need to know, doctor. Okay, get this place sorted, and you'll be busy next!"
After speaking, Nick Fury turned and left.
Looking at the back of the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., Edgar showed an evil smile: "Yes, we are quite busy."
…
Chicago, the famous J. Parker Rooftop Restaurant, is located on the west side of Lincoln Park. The restaurant next to Lincoln Park provides the best angle to view the park. When you climb up and look into the distance, you can not only have a panoramic view of the park, but also the tall buildings in the city in the distance.
The scenery of Qunhe Lakeside also comes into view.
But now the atmosphere here is a little weird. Parker's Restaurant, which had always been prosperous, seemed unusually deserted tonight. There was only one table in the entire rooftop restaurant being used, and there were no other customers.
There were four people at that table, two men and two women. One of the men was very famous throughout the United States. He was none other than Tony Stark, the prodigal son of a wealthy family, the number one playboy in the United States, and the president of the Stark Group. Sitting next to him
The woman was none other than his secretary, Pepper Potts.
But obviously, these two people are not in a good mood. As for why, let's talk about the two people opposite them.
Kay and Diana.
Originally, Kai and Diana hadn't seen each other for a long time, and they were chatting happily until an unexpected guest interrupted them.
After Tony saw Diana for the first time, he became obsessed with her. This is normal. If Tony is famous, according to statistics from the good media, this playboy changes female partners faster than he changes clothes.
There were so many. The most exaggerated time was that he changed eight female companions in one day. Anyway, no one believed that those women just followed Tony to eat, watch movies and attend events.
But with Diana, he has been defeated continuously. Tony has always been a narcissistic bastard, but it is not that he has never been rejected by women. After all, not everyone likes his money... right? But like Diana, the look in his eyes
There is really no one who openly reveals disgust and disdain. After all, Tony believes that in addition to money, his talent and handsome appearance are also weapons for seducing girls. Those who don't like his money can like his talent, and then
Unfortunately, he still has a trump card, and that is his appearance.
It seems that he has not seen the interview where Barkley once described Jordan.
If he were a plumber, no one would say he was handsome.
So he took it for granted that it was a routine. He had seen bloody dramas! This must be a counter-routine.
As a result, he saw Kai and Diana talking happily.
