This new type of energy wasn't fast enough for the gods, but Coulson fought to take them by surprise!
Even Loki, in his deepest mind, wouldn't have thought that an ordinary human who was seriously injured and waiting to die would do him any harm.
"Boom! ~"
The energy was compressed to the extreme at the barrel of the gun, and in the next instant Coulson pulled the trigger! The energy projectile had struck Loki in the chest!
Enough energy to blast a normal human into smithereens, the strike on Loki only caused the god's body to fly backward and slam into the steel wall.
Alarms sounded and red lights flashed.
Loki struggled to his feet, his right hand firmly gripping the scepter of the mind, and after glancing at Coulson, sensed a large collection of humans not far away.
With a cold grunt, he withdrew towards the quinjet.
At this point in time, taking down this damn freaking alliance was barely enough to accomplish the mission.
After that, all that was needed was to successfully construct a portal and welcome the arrival of the Ziretta army. Earth would definitely be in his pocket!
The scepter's sharp edge had already turned from silver-white to black-brown, the Coulson's blood remaining above it became dry, and there were still a few drops that had originally smashed onto the Mind Gem, all of which had been evaporated into nothingness by the ethereal blue mist.
The Quinjet took off, and the corner of Loki's mouth seemed to be trying to pull out a smile after he glanced at the Air Carrier again.
But as soon as he thought of that mysterious black armor, his expression immediately became grim again.
According to the news, the pilot of that armor that could fight hard with the Destroyer was a small Earth girl.
Loki had seen her more than once! The first time he met her was in the western desert of this country, and at that time, he was still amazed and couldn't believe that such a perfect human child could have evolved on Earth!
But then ... The other party gave him more and more "surprises", and now recalling the first scene, Loki always has a kind of chilling feeling!
This time, he also did not see each other.
The light in his eyes flickered, and finally gritted his teeth!
As long as the Ziretta army descended, who cares about the mysterious armor! When there were enough of them, an ant could bite an elephant!
...
Maniac III deliberately slowed down his pace, entering the chamber only after Loki had left, glancing at Coulson, who was leaning against the steel wall, a prominent S.H.I.E.L.D. agent who still hadn't lasted as long as the original.
Breathless, Madsan could detect that the other's body temperature was being sucked away by the cold steel or dissipated into the air.
With a thought, the headset suddenly expanded in front of him, forming a small virtual screen.
After connecting to Fury, Maniac Three's face remained unchanged.
"It's all bad news here, which one do you want to hear first?"
Fury's face shook as he scanned around through the screen, noticing that the hatch was in shambles, with obvious signs of battle.
"Go ahead, being an agent is also quite important mentally, and I don't think I'm too bad."
"Loki got away."
Fury nodded, which was to be expected.
"Thor appears to have been tricked by Loki into getting inside the glass cage and then thrown down by him."
The corner of Fury's eye twitched, although he knew that the other party was immortal, but from a height of ten thousand meters ... As well as the earth's gravity added ... What exactly is the fate of this Thor, Fury can not guess.
"And?" Fury asked Frenzy, seeing that he was about to say something, Fury asked him, anyway, the air carrier has "crashed" once, he does not believe that there will be worse news than this thing!
Frenzy turned on his side, letting the camera spin around, "See for yourself."
The black suit appeared to have a thick mucus on it, and the white shirt on the inside was already stained red with blood in the chest area.
There wasn't a single rise or fall!
Fury clenched his fists under the black coat, what Loki had brought him was too much!
First Barton and Shavig were controlled, the air carrier was attacked on its maiden voyage, and now ... Even the beloved ones he had raised died there!
His face was grim and cold, perhaps because of his dark skin, people could not feel how his emotions were at this time.
"I ... I'll go this time."
Madsan's eyes narrowed slightly, others couldn't see that
But it didn't mean she couldn't see it.
Fury's lips trembled slightly as he spoke, and for a top agent, that was enough to indicate that the other party was having violent mood swings!
It seemed that Coulson's death was a big blow to Fury as well.
Turning the virtual screen off, the entire cabin, except for the dim yellow light, all the equipment tends to be close to scrapping.
Madsan walked over to Coulson's side and stretched out her slender jade hand, covering the top of Coulson's eyes.
The scent of body odor was intertwined with the smell of blood, but no one present could smell it.
"Red Queen?"
"Yes, Master."
"Send this file here to the 'superheroes'."
"OK, the file is being edited." The Delicate Mannequin Red Queen was not here, but with her special headset, she was able to form a projection from the air.
"Master ... The Tesseract's output power is gradually increasing, and I've turned off the virtual illusion."
"What do you mean ..."
"Dr. Shavig is making the final adjustments, it won't be long before it succeeds, and then ... War, it's coming."
"The main battlefield?" Madsan's voice was cold and clear, as if he didn't have to go to war that way.
"It has been determined to be New York."
"How is the magnetic array layout?"
The Red Queen's face was slightly bitter, "Because S.H.I.E.L.D. has been gradually adding manpower to New York lately, the number of 'Umbrella' squads that have entered New York is not that many. So ... array diagram still takes a while."
"Hm?!"
Madsan's willow brows frowned slightly, "What's wrong?"
"Master, Shavig and his party, it seems that they have chosen their target to be there at the Embry-Riddle headquarters."
"Isn't Stark Tower's energy supply superior to ours?"
"But we're taller ah ..." The Red Queen grinned her small mouth, "And the difference between the headquarters and Stark Mansion isn't too great relative to the energy aspect."
"Is it?" Madsan casually replied back, "Then let them up." There was a pause, "Try to stall for a bit."
The Red Queen nodded and looked to the body by the steel wall, "Master, about Coulson's plan."
"Carry on with it!"
...
Fury, who had seen Coulson's remains, didn't say anything, but just remained silent in place for a moment, as if he had made up his mind about something.
...
"Looks like he hasn't asked you for an autograph yet."
"What?"
"Pah~"
Fury threw the stack of blood-stained cards in his hand onto the conference table.
Captain America Rogers sat flabbergasted.
"Coulson has always idolized you, and was even more excited as a child when he first saw you in the ice."
Fury paused, "I don't know what it is that makes a top agent have such dramatic mood swings."
"He sacrificed himself." Fury trailed off, "Loki finished him off with a single slash, the sharp blade stabbing through the heart from below, and by the time Brooks saw him, Coulson had long since bled out and become a corpse."
Rogers took the cards, took a ballpoint pen from one side and signed his name one by one.
"Click~"
Madoka walked into the conference room and Tony looked up at her.
Her lips quirked, "Do you have the power to save him?"
"He's dead." Madsan said, "The body is cold."
Tony fell silent, the high intelligence of him could understand once he thought about it, when Ethan should be in the middle of a serious injury, has this Missy's magic, so that he could be revived.
But now ... Tony smiled to himself, "Right, how can a person die and come back to life?"
"I'm going out for some air."
Rogers gave him a look and stood up as well, following the other man away.
"Chief!" Hill meant the two men, some hesitation on his face.
"It's okay, let them be."
"They ... won't fight again, will they?"
Fury turned his head to Hill, "What do you think?"
"Ta-da-da~"
A rush of footsteps came as Natasha walked into the conference room, only relieved to see Madoka, "Tokizaki, Barton's side ..."
"You got him?" Madsan was more curious, if they were to go by life and death, it would obviously be easier for Hawkeye to win.
Now it seemed that if there wasn't something fishy between the two, Madoka was not convinced in the slightest.
"Yes." Natasha nodded, "But Barton is in bad shape, and Loki has a strong hold on him!"
Fury ferried back and forth in place, "And please help Barton if you can."
Madoka stood up, "That was the deal, let's go."
...
Rogers followed Tony to the hatch, right in the center, where the glass cage had belonged, now there was nothing left but the bottom.
The steel walls around it were a mess, and some blood could even be seen on the deck.
From the restored information Brooks had provided, Coulson had by no means died peacefully.
Having survived for so long ... How at that time he and Stark in the faster, perhaps will not cause the tragedy.
Rogers was obviously in a good frame of mind, though, and no one knows what kind of an uplift he would have gotten inside after being frozen for seventy years.
At his age, he's pretty used to seeing humans live and die, right?
Rogers put a self-deprecating smile on his face and clasped his hands to his chest, leaning his back against the railing. Learning from Tony, he took a look at the bottom of the cabin.
"Is he married?"
Tony didn't turn around, his eyes emptying as he continued to stare at the clearing.
"Not yet. Supposedly has a girlfriend who plays the cello."
"I'm sorry." Rogers murmured, "He seemed like a nice guy."
Tony nodded as if in agreement, then raised an eyebrow, "He's a douche!"
"Why?" Rogers asked rhetorically, "Because of his beliefs?"
With a show of hands, Tony stepped off the deck and said noncommittally, "He fought Loki alone!"
"He was just being loyal."
"Coulson did something beyond his capabilities! He should have waited for assistance, he should have ..."
"Everyone has times when they can't help themselves, Tony."
"Yeah, I understand."
Rogers greeted Tony, but brushed past the other man.
"Is this the first time you've encountered a dead soldier?"
Tony's demeanor seemed to perk up as he turned toward Rogers and exclaimed, "We're not soldiers!... I'm not one of Fury's men."
Rogers calmly said, "Neither am I! But right now, we should put aside our old grudges and work together to solve the problem. Loki likes energy, we can list some ..."
"He likes to stir up trouble!"
"That's okay."
"No, no, no." Tony shook his head, "That's what Loki's intentions are, why would he attack an air carrier?"
"To divide us?" The captain questioned.
"Yes, to spread out before attacking each one! Simply a brilliant plan! He'll only win if he scatters us, right? That's what he's up to!"
Tony was quite sure, body language abounding, clearly hating Loki with a passion!
"He wants to beat us and be known by the world!" Tony seemed to think of something, "Yeah, he wants an audience! Before in Stuttgart, that was just a teaser, now it's the premiere!"
The more Tony talked, the more comfortable he became, Loki's personality matched his own at some point.
Tony could completely figure out Loki's mental activities based on his own thoughts!
"He craves flowers, attention! He wants a skyscraper with his name engraved on it!"
Tony froze, and Rogers was filled with confusion.
Combined with what Loki had done earlier, Tony walked down the ladder in a godlike manner, "Loki needs energy, he needs high ground, and the closest location is New York. And the ones that fulfill those conditions ... Stark Tower, and the Embraer headquarters!"
Rogers, even if he was confused at this point, understood what Tony was saying, "You mean ... Loki will summon an army to descend at these two locations?"
"Yes, absolutely!"
"So we split up?"
"Hmm?" Tony looked over at Rogers, "Don't you realize that Stark Tower is only a block away from Embry-Riddle's headquarters?"
An embarrassed look flickered across Rogers' face, then he went to the hatch to quickly organize his equipment.
...
The small formation map formed by the magic pattern floated in mid-air, a strand of ethereal blue energy was sucked out from Barton's body, while he, who had always had violent mood swings, slowly quieted down as if he had been given a tranquilizer that way.
Natasha's face was full of worry, but she could only stand aside in silence, preventing herself from accidentally disturbing Madsan.
Ghostly blue light shone in the dimly lit room, gradually enveloping half of Madoka's pretty face.
The formation diagram slowly rotated in mid-air, grinding down the ghostly blue energy little by little.
It had to be said that Barton himself was defined as an assassin, yet he had repeatedly appeared on the front battlefield to fight the enemy.
It was just an ordinary human body, but it couldn't be denied that he was also one of the 'heroes'.
With just a hand of exceptional archery skills and those weird iron arrows, but he was able to bring some harassing attacks to the Ziretta's army.
It had to be said that he could be considered a genius in a certain field.
As the formation disappeared in mid-air, Natasha looked at Madoka San.
"It's done, just wait for him to clean it up a bit."
Natasha breathed a sigh of relief and was about to say something when she was interrupted by a knock on the door.
Captain Rogers pushed the door open, and Madokaichi realized that the other man was already half-armed, as if he would be going into battle at any moment.
Looking to the two, "Are you ready? Stark has identified the location of the Tesseract. And Brooks ... If Loki's army descends, there's a chance that the Embry-Riddle headquarters will have to be rebuilt."
"Never mind." Madsan was unconcerned, "There's plenty of funds, I just hope the building is demobilized."
At that moment, Barton stepped out of the bathroom, and Rogers looked to him, "Will it work?"
"No problem!"
...
"Brooks!"
Turning to look at Tony who had called out to her, Madoka frowned slightly, she couldn't afford to waste any more time now that she had to get to Embry-Riddle.
"Got some bad news for you."
"Loki's chosen location is in Embraer?"
Tony grimaced, "They're likely making preparations, we need to get there now, and I need to replace my new armor, so ... And please interrupt them from building a teleportation channel!"
