Chapter 232 Residues!
"What about the Thunder Squad?"
Nick Fury, visibly impatient, asked, "Are you ready?"
All members of this Thunder Squad are elites from various special teams. It is a special combat team that integrates the black technology of SHIELD.
If it wasn't for the Roaring Commandos carrying out 'salvage' missions in the Arctic, I'm afraid this mission would not have fallen on the Thunder Squad.
"The Thunder Squad is assembled." A fully armed soldier stepped forward and said, "A total of 18 combat personnel are waiting for the director's instructions."
"Barton, Natasha, you two are in charge of commanding the team." Fury nodded slightly and said solemnly: "Remember, your mission is to destroy the 'pollution source' at all costs!"
"Yes!"
Eighteen elite warriors and two top secret agents slipped down one by one from the cracks that were torn open on the surface, after hanging the ropes.
They didn't fall fast and kept a three-three formation.
While one person descended, the other two remained vigilant, and the cycle went on and on for more than ten minutes before the team all descended to the bottom of the crack.
At the same time, the people on the surface were not idle either.
Others remain vigilant at the periphery, while the remaining technicians build survey equipment, and some continue to measure underground pollution sources.
Time passed little by little.
Everyone on the ground was anxiously waiting, and a message came from below.
"The positioning device shows that they are close to the source of pollution." Hill squeezed the LCD panel nervously, and didn't even dare to let out a loud voice, for fear that Fury, who was beside him with a gloomy face, would go mad.
After another few minutes of waiting, the communication device suddenly sent out a rapid scream, as if it was suddenly frightened.
"what!"
This exclamation made everyone lift their hearts.
"No, something happened!"
Nick Fury narrowed his eyes, grabbed the intercom and shouted, "Barton, Natasha, what happened?"
"No...nothing happened." The person who answered was Hawkeye, but his tone was a little surprised.
Apparently saw something amazing.
"fine?"
Nick Fury frowned: "Report the following situation, what did you see?"
"Uh....."
Hawkeye hesitated for a moment, and then said in a complicated tone: "Director, there is no danger found below, but... the situation is a bit complicated, I can't describe it, I suggest you come down and see for yourself."
Complicated?
Can't describe?
No threat?
Nick Fury has a black question mark on his face, what is this all about!
"Director, why don't I go down and have a look?" Hill stepped forward and suggested in a low voice.
"Need not."
Nick Fury waved his hand and said, "Since the Thunder team has confirmed that it is safe below, let's go down together and see what happened."
shhhhh......
Everyone descended to the bottom of the crack along the hanging rope.
Walking in that huge dark crack like a rift, Nick Fury's heart was filled with turbulent waves, which could cause this kind of terrifying destructive power, almost no less than the death god and the Quincy during the New York War!
When they passed through the dark cracks and came to the underground cave, everyone was shocked and speechless!
The rock walls of most of the caves have fallen off and collapsed. The geological structure shows signs of fracture. The huge stones are piled up in a disorderly manner. Pungent stench in the air!
"This...this is?!"
Nick Fury's pupils shrank to the tip of a pin, completely unable to imagine what happened here!
"Chief!"
Natasha trotted all the way over, handed over the instrument in her hand, and said with a serious expression: "Look, we have detected residual spiritual power here, and some people have fought."
Spiritual power?
As soon as Nick Fury heard this word now, he felt a dull pain in his cerebral cortex, and frowned: "You mean...death caused it?"
"I don't think so."
Natasha shook her head, then pointed to the small holes in the shape of holes on the surrounding rock walls, and said: "From the analysis of the battle traces, I think the fighting party should be the Quincy family mentioned by the god of death. ."
"Based on what?" Fury raised his eyebrows.
Natasha analyzed: "Director, please see, from the hole-shaped damage left on the rock wall, it does not look like a knife-type weapon commonly used by the god of death, but more like the damage caused by arrows with stronger penetration. ."
"As far as we know, there are only three types of gods of death, emptiness, and quenchers who can use spiritual power. Among them, only the quintessential fighting method is based on bows and arrows. It relies on limbs to fight."
"Of course, my speculation may not be accurate. The other two may also cause this destructive effect, but I think it is more likely to be a Quincy. Barton has carefully observed those destructive effects, and he also thinks it is an arrow type. weapons."
As a professional bow player, Hawkeye still has some credibility in his words. After listening, Fury nodded, feeling somewhat reasonable, and asked: "Do you think the object of the battle with Quincy is false? "
"This is not clear." Natasha shook her head and sighed: "There is too little information that can be analyzed at the scene, and the remaining traces have been deliberately removed."
"Chief!"
At this time, Hawkeye suddenly ran over: "I found something, and I need you to come and take a look."
Nick Fury's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly followed Hawkeye.
Because most of the caves were almost collapsed, and there were huge rocks everywhere, so they could only walk through the cracks with difficulty. Nick Fury followed Hawkeye for about a few minutes and came to a place that had not collapsed yet. in the cave.
"Director, look."
Hawkeye turned on the light and shone the beam on a piece of black flesh the size of a fingernail that was still wriggling.
"A piece of... meat?" Nick Fury frowned and was about to reach out to touch it, but was stopped by Hawkeye on the side.
"Don't touch it, Chief!"
Hawkeye said with a serious expression: "According to the detection equipment, this piece of meat is emitting that kind of strange pollution fluctuations, but the fluctuations are too weak to affect us."
"it?"
Nick Fury was slightly startled, then recalled those infected lunatics, and withdrew his hand in fear: "You mean...the strange phenomenon that caused a large area of madness is such a small piece... .Meat?"
"To be precise..."
Hawkeye paused for a moment, and then said with a complicated expression: "It should be some kind of 'creature' before this piece of meat was destroyed, causing the previous large-scale madness."
"biology......"
A gleam of light flashed in Nick Fury's one eye, and he was suddenly interested in this creature.
Destroyed to the point where only a piece of flesh the size of a fingernail is left, it can still survive alone for so long, which shows how terrifying the vitality of its cells is, and there are unknown strange fluctuations that can affect creatures on a large scale... .
The heart to die is burning!
The strong curiosity of human beings makes him want to understand what this creature is!
"Take it away!"
Nick Fury said solemnly: "This matter is classified as level 9 secret, don't let anyone know about it except you, understand!"
"Yes, Director!" Hawkeye said.
