Chapter 24 Is the set wrong?

Bakers Water Works.

Grant Ward led a SHIELD assault team, cautiously moving through this dark and quiet factory.

There was no sound of people everywhere, only the water flowing through the metal pipes, and the soft sound of water droplets occasionally hitting the floor. The humidity in the air was very high, and there was a salty smell. It seemed to be hidden in the ubiquitous darkness.

With a pair of vicious eyes, he looked coldly at everyone who dared to break into this place from the shadows.

The cold metal facilities in the water supply plant looked like craggy ghosts in the darkness, showing their hideous faces, ready to turn this place into a tomb for agents at any time.

This place gave Ward an extremely uncomfortable feeling. This was an ominous premonition that he had never experienced in countless life-or-death missions in the past. As mentioned before, Grant Ward is not actually a real S.H.I.E.L.D.

Agent, his true identity is a Hydra undercover agent hiding inside SHIELD.

It would be funny if he failed and died during this mission. He was clearly an undercover agent, but as a result, he was lurking in the house without having time to do anything, and suddenly became a martyr of Aegis. Then God

Shield might even give him a badge and put his photo on the wall of honor, which would be the greatest mockery of a spy.

There was some kind of low strange scream coming from the depths of the darkness, and there was also a squeaking sound as if something was loose.

Ward stopped and stretched out his fist to signal everyone to stop.

Everyone held their breath and formed a formation. Everyone leveled their guns and stood ready, quietly waiting for the thing in the darkness to appear.

In an instant that no one expected, that thing took action.

Tentacles like vine whips pierced the solid wall, as if a poisonous python had wrapped around an agent's waist. The agent subconsciously let out a low cry, and was pulled into the darkness before he could even pull the trigger, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

sound.

"Fire!" Ward ordered loudly and took the lead in pulling the trigger into the darkness.

From the moment he was dragged into the darkness, the agent was doomed to die. They had no chance to worry too much now. If they did not dare to fire because they were worried about their companion, and missed the best opportunity to counterattack, then their only option would be

The only outcome would be annihilation of the whole army.

The muzzle fire flashed one after another, and the steel projectiles were poured into the endless darkness like hot raindrops. There was a dull strange sound briefly in the darkness, and then it became quiet again.

No one spoke, but the emotion called fear hovered in the dark air like a lingering cloud.

Lovecraft once said that the oldest and strongest human emotion is fear; the oldest and strongest fear comes from the unknown. This is indeed the case.

These agents who have been around life and death all year round are not afraid of death, but they are afraid of darkness, afraid of being dragged into the darkness by the unknown enemy, and facing death that does not know what form it will come in.

Ten seconds later, the attack struck again - this time from underground. The concrete floor was pierced like a piece of tissue paper, and two long whips wrapped around the two agents respectively. Another attack on them

Unprepared, the two were dragged into the darkness.

But this time Ward was already on full alert. After the two agents were dragged in, he immediately threw SHIELD's special high-explosive grenades and incendiary bombs into the hole in the ground. The violent roar was heard under everyone's feet.

It exploded in the space, causing the ground beneath their feet to tremble slightly. The flames erupted from the ground like a long twisted dragon erupting from the cavity, and the pillar of fire with a temperature of thousands of degrees hit the ceiling, almost melting through the metal.

The explosion ended, but the vibrations under everyone's feet suddenly intensified. The dull roars suddenly escalated, as if something was violently hitting the floor from below, and the entire water supply plant began to tremble violently!

Ward realized something was wrong and hurriedly shouted: "Retreat! Retreat!"

But maybe it was a little late. Whips were thrust out of the wall one after another, and one agent after another was grabbed by the thing and dragged into the darkness without a trace. Cracks spread like crazy along the walls and ground, and gravel and dust

It fell from the ceiling with a rustle, and the floor cracked open like a cracked eggshell.

Tentacles pierced out one after another, and the huge black shadow crushed the ground, rising like a giant whale out of the water. The pipe burst, and everything in the factory was shattered, like a strong earthquake.

The foundation of the water supply plant collapsed, as if a huge mouth had opened and swallowed the entire building. Grant Ward ran desperately, and finally escaped the fate of being buried alive. Looking back, he saw

Only two of the group of agents who went in together escaped with him alive, and the losses were heavy.

Coulson hurriedly came forward. The SHIELD doctor held the tablet and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Here it comes! That thing is here! It started to move, it will come up soon...

"

Before he could finish speaking, tens of thousands of feet of dust were stirred up in the deep pit. A giant shadow rose from the ground, finally revealing its true form in front of everyone.

In terms of appearance, it should be a red bug. It has a disgusting shape, a long tail, sharp mouthparts, and long red tentacles on its hands - obviously this is the same bug as before.

What a whip actually looks like.

But this insect is nearly fifty meters tall.

"Oh my God." The doctor held the tablet in his hand and stared blankly at the huge insect, as if he was watching a miracle.

Coulson and Ward were also shocked. Even as SHIELD agents who have been dealing with irregular events all year round, they had never seen anything like this.

After all, Coulson was a senior agent. He quickly forced himself to recover from the shock and pressed the headset to order: "Attack this thing with maximum firepower!"

"receive."

The Quinjet that had been waiting in the air slowly lowered its altitude and lowered the large-caliber Gatling gun carried by the Quinjet. The gun barrel rotated rapidly, flames poured out like a long tongue, and bullets like raindrops crackled on the gun.

The shell of the giant bug was spattered, but it seemed to have no effect.

The pylon was protruded from the bottom of the Quinjet, and a pair of missiles ignited suddenly, drawing a burning trajectory in the night and flying straight out, exploding a large ball of dazzling fireball with a deafening roar...

...

Not far from the outskirts of the blockade, Richard, who had just arrived, looked at the Aegis fighter jets and the giant insect in the crossfire, and his heart felt like ten thousand mythical beasts and grass-mud horses galloping past...

Did you accidentally run back to Tsuburaya's set or something?
