A moment later, Maria Hill replied with a somewhat complicated expression, "Director, I've contacted Agent Carter, but she said... the Captain is already asleep!"
"Huh? What do you mean 'asleep'?"
Nick Fury was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, then, as if realizing something, he immediately burst into anger, "Motherfucker, I sent her to intercept the Captain, not to sleep with him..."
"I don't care if they're halfway through it, she needs to get his pants on and get him over there immediately, that's an order!!"
Tsk tsk, I didn't expect it, Captain America, you with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, you've betrayed love too, and with your old flame's niece no less?!
Truly, the good stuff doesn't go to outsiders?
Looks like you old-timers from the old days really know how to play the game.
Clearly, Nick Fury understood "asleep" as a certain act of love!
It's not that his mind is particularly dirty, but this kind of tactic is commonly used by female agents.
And it's always effective... uh, well, except for Black Widow in 【Sokovia】 that time!!
However.
Maria Hill gave a different answer.
"Um, Director, it might not be what you think."
Maria Hill rolled her eyes helplessly, then cautiously explained to him:
"Agent Carter said that in order to successfully intercept the Captain, she deliberately put 10 doses of strong sleeping pills in the Captain's drink while chatting with him."
"Based on the estimated effects of the drug, even if the Captain has a physique far superior to ordinary people, he will need at least 5 hours to wake up, so... the Captain is really asleep!!"
How about it, surprising, isn't it?
The good news is, the interception was successful!
The bad news is, the interception was a little too successful!
"What?"
Nick Fury was stunned for a full moment upon hearing this, and his body slumped into the chair like a deflated ball.
It's over, it's all over!
The plan to take the opportunity to coerce the 【Security Council】 executives to add to the financial budget has been completely ruined this time.
But what really makes him angry and anxious is not only that 【.】 can't even get a sip of the soup in this "supernatural event".
And... 【.】's already very passive situation may become even more precarious due to this matter!
This is definitely not alarmist talk.
Ask yourself, when the 【Security Council】 executives see that in the face of this large-scale "supernatural event", whether or not 【.】 and the 【Avengers】 participate, it can still be resolved... especially when it is solved by an unknown street hero, it is difficult not to start questioning whether it is necessary for 【.】 to continue to exist!
After all, street heroes don't need hundreds of billions of financial allocations at every turn, and they even cover their own food, lodging, and medical expenses...
Nick Fury's mood is now extremely complicated.
As the supreme commander, his judgment on this incident was undoubtedly a very serious mistake!
This is simply the most fatal psychological blow to the always arrogant, self-righteous, and dictatorial Nick Fury.
He couldn't help but regret why he ordered the interception of Captain America's actions at that time.
He personally pushed back the credit that was voluntarily offered!
Otherwise, wouldn't he be able to take the opportunity to vigorously publicize the irreplaceable importance of 【.】 in handling crisis events?
And next, the worst result may be that 【.】's financial budget will be further reduced next quarter...
In this way, Nick Fury will not be able to continue to embezzle, deduct, and falsify accounts and other means of collecting money to secretly support his group of Skrulls.
And he will have even less time to flirt with his Skrull lover!!
"Phew..."
Fortunately, Nick Fury's heart is very strong, and he quickly adjusted his restless mood, and constantly comforted himself in his heart that there will definitely be a chance to "turn over" next time.
Moreover, if you look at it from another perspective, although this matter was handled a bit badly.
But for Nick Fury personally, at least the saving grace is that this incident has nothing to do with his nemesis Karl Malla.
Otherwise, if the other party were to gain any benefits, it would be even more uncomfortable than killing him directly, and he would probably be so angry that he would explode on the spot?!
Nick Fury: Well, thinking about it this way, I feel a lot happier for some reason.

…………
……
With the death of 【The Beast】.
The Hand ninjas on the street who had been granted demonic powers by 【The Beast】 all collapsed weakly to the ground like soft-footed shrimps who had been instantly drained of all their strength.
The civilian melee that originally filled the streets and alleys of 【Hell's Kitchen】 also stopped.
However...
For these rioters who have been contaminated by their minds, the real tragedy may have just begun.
The people who regained consciousness looked at the hellish scene around them, and their terrified pupils revealed unbelievable despair.
"Oh, God, what have I done?"
A man holding a baseball bat looked at his wife, who was trampled under his feet and whose head had been smashed inward and deformed, and immediately clutched his hair in despair and knelt weakly beside the corpse and wailed.
Not far away, a girl struggled out of her father's arms in horror, looking at her blood-stained hands and the dagger inserted into her father's chest, she immediately recalled what had just happened.
"Dad, I'm... I'm sorry..."
The girl also saw fear and anxiety on her father's face, but before he died, he still did not forget to protect her in his broad arms.
The girl opened her mouth several times to say something, but in the end, it was all occupied by choked sobs.
Two lines of desperate tears flowed uncontrollably.
Heart-wrenching sadness seemed to take away all the vitality from the girl, turning her into a walking corpse immersed in the abyss of pain and unable to extricate herself.
And scenes like this are everywhere in 【Hell's Kitchen】 at this moment.
More and more people were crying and hugging their heads in remorse and fear.
Faced with this sudden disaster, they felt an unprecedented sense of powerlessness and despair.
The air was filled with a strong smell of blood, and the intermittent wails around, the corpses everywhere, and the devastated streets together intertwined a scene like the end of the world.
Although 【The Beast】's pollution of these people gradually dissipated.
But the trauma it brought to these people and even the entire 【Hell's Kitchen】 will never heal.
"Uh..."
Lizard Peter glanced at 【The Beast】 on the ground, which was beaten into a bloody mess and completely inhuman, and carefully reminded:
"Gwen, the riots here have subsided, we should go, otherwise it will be troublesome if we are surrounded by police officers later."
"Wait a minute."
Gwen seemed to have thought of something, and glanced at the Hand members one by one, frowning and said: "Where did that old woman named Gao go?"
However, she immediately realized that the power in her body had begun to show signs of decline, so she shook her head helplessly:
"Forget it, let the police chase down the remaining one."
Then she and Lizard Peter quickly disappeared into the dark alley.
……
at the same time.
A figure as embarrassed as a stray dog appeared in front of the 【Manhattan Financial Building】.
It was Mrs. Gao, whom Gwen wanted to find.
After witnessing with her own eyes that the beast god they had believed in for hundreds of years was defeated by Gwen, she quietly fled the battlefield.
As the 【Five Fingers】... no, it should be said that as the only remaining high-level member of the 【Hand】 today.
Mrs. Gao's face has long lost its past composure and calmness, leaving only uncontrollable deep fear.
Because she knew very well in her heart that after losing the power bestowed by the beast god, the 【Hand】 was completely finished this time!
And what made her feel most desperate was.
The 【Dragon Bone】 that can prolong life and resurrect the dead has also been completely consumed in the previous ritual to summon 【The Beast】.
That is to say.
In the few remaining days, she will not only be unable to continue to prolong her life or "resurrect" as before.
Instead, she will have to run around like a stray dog, evading the pursuit of the police and Spider-Woman.
This huge psychological gap made Mrs. Gao's sanity gradually become hysterical.
Looking at the 【Financial Building】 in front of her, a touch of decisive madness flashed in her eyes.
She didn't want to end her life so uselessly.
Since the destruction of the 【Hand】 cannot be changed.
Then she might as well drag everyone in 【New York】 to destroy with her and the 【Hand】!!
That's right, that's it.
Immediately, Mrs. Gao walked quickly into the 【Financial Building】 and ordered the 【Hand】 members disguised as security guards to transport all the prepared explosives to the "Wall of Sealing" in the underground, which sealed the complete dragon skeleton.
She wants to use the powerful power contained in the "Wall of Sealing" and the 【Dragon Bone】 to instantly collapse the entire 【New York】.
Previously, the 【Hand】 only used a very small amount of explosives to blast a gap in the "Wall of Sealing", which triggered two strong earthquakes of magnitude 6 or above in a row.
It was precisely because of this that they finally gave up the idea of forcibly blasting open the "Wall of Sealing" and instead prepared to use the powerful 【Black Sky】 to capture Iron Fist and open the seal!
But right now, for Mrs. Gao, she can just use this 【characteristic】 of the "Wall of Sealing" to destroy 【New York】 once and for all and die with everyone.
"Jieha...cough cough cough!"
Mrs. Gao held the remote control in her hand, sitting alone in the pile of explosives, with a slightly pale face but a hysterical and excited smile.
"Damn Spider-Woman, and that damn big lizard, so what if you beat the beast god... in the end, you still have to perish with the whole city?"
However.
Before she could finish her words, a cold voice suddenly sounded from the darkness opposite.
"Put down the bomb remote control in your hand... from now on, everything in this 【Financial Building】 will be officially taken over by the 【Subspace Group】."
"Who are you? When did you come down..."
Mrs. Gao looked at Selena, who came out of the darkness opposite, and was shocked at first. She didn't even notice the other party's aura just now.
But then she grinned and roared: "Forget it, it doesn't matter, just obediently accompany me in the funeral!"
As the voice sounded, she prepared to press the explosion button.
Time seemed to freeze at this moment.
Mrs. Gao closed her eyes subconsciously, waiting for the end of the world that belonged to her and the entire 【New York】.
But who would have thought.
The expected explosion did not happen.
Only a breeze passed by.
And a head that was thrown high, and then rolled to the ground.
Mrs. Gao opened her eyes blankly and saw the last picture in her life.
A leather-clad girl holding a long sword was gently shaking off the blood stains on the blade, and beside her stood a headless corpse like a fountain.
Mrs. Gao thought so: That wouldn't be... my corpse, would it?
Selena carried Mrs. Gao's head back to the ground and instructed the Deathwalkers who were cleaning up the corpses of the Hand ninjas before leaving:
"Send the explosives underground to a safe place, and then send someone to guard here. Boss will come to deal with the wall underground in person tomorrow."
"Yes!!"
Now, after taking Alexander Corvinus's blood, these Deathwalkers have all become "Daywalkers" like Selena, overcoming the only weakness of being afraid of sunlight and ultraviolet rays.
They are now not only Selena's loyal followers.
At the same time, like their leader, they have become Karl's fanatical worshipers!
Hearing that Boss will come in person tomorrow, everyone was immediately full of energy like they had been injected with chicken blood.
Selena was naturally happy to see this.
But next, she has another thing to do.
That is to "acquire" 【Rand Industries Group】, which is worth nearly 10 billion, without spending a penny.
That is the company founded by 【Iron Fist】 Danny Rand's father.
Although Selena doesn't know the real purpose of her boss's instructions, she will execute Karl's orders without hesitation.
This is the rule!!!
…………
……
A certain 【Hell Dimension】.
In order to keep up with the times and impress more ignorant humans to actively sign contracts with him, Mephisto is seriously studying the latest scam techniques with two human souls who are good at pyramid schemes.
Suddenly, as if sensing something, his face changed drastically.
"Damn it, how did one of my 【Spirit of Vengeance Fragments】 suddenly lose contact... Could it be that the host was killed?!"
So Mephisto quickly cast a spell and began to check those human hosts who had signed contracts with him and were granted the 【Spirit of Vengeance】.
Soon, he locked his sights on Johnny Blaze.
But when he saw the state the other man was in, he was immediately dumbfounded.
Johnny Blaze didn't have any serious injuries, but the [Spirit of Vengeance] that had been residing within him was gone.
