Chapter 260: The Universe Cube Moves
"Sir, do we really have to give priority to them?"
It's obvious that Hill and Nick Fury have different ideas. After hearing Nick Fury's order, Hill also asked with a puzzled look, but insisted.
In this case, paying attention to these unimportant things is just messing around in Hill's opinion.
But the other party is her superior after all. In SHIELD, the superior can crush people to death.
If you don't do it, there are plenty of people who will do it, and you will be killed.
"Unless it's the end of the world, we have to follow the established procedures."
"Move all the equipment below, and every component of the second-stage prototype must be loaded and transported away. There will be a transport plane waiting for you outside."
After hearing Hill's words, at this moment, Nick Fury also stopped, turned around, looked at the deputy in front of him with deep eyes, and then spoke in a deep voice.
"Okay, sir."
After hearing that the chief in front of him was so dissatisfied with his attitude and even issued an ultimatum, Hill did not continue to insist. After answering, he turned around and walked outside.
Looking at the deputy in front of him who had different ideas and completely different working styles, Nick Fury couldn't help shaking his head.
He wanted to train the other party as his deputy as much as possible, but maybe the natural thinking difference between men and women led to the fact that even if Nick Fury wanted to hand over his long-standing working style to the other party, the other party was not very interested.
Even for his own words and arrangements, he had his own way of doing things.
This is a good thing and a bad thing.
The good thing is that as a leader, she has her own persistence that will not change, which happens to be the most important thing for a leader.
Because as a leader, and leading a top spy organization like S.H.I.E.L.D. with tens of thousands of agents, as long as the leader has even a trace of doubt about his decision, it may cause the organization he leads to split or even be cannibalized.
But this also has disadvantages, that is, if you are wrong, then the person involved can easily get into a dead end.
The specific situation depends on the other party's luck.
After shaking his head, Nick Fury turned around and continued to go down to the underground base.
"Tell me about the situation, doctor."
After arriving at the last underground laboratory, looking at Dr. Aurora Bolton who was constantly debugging on the spot to try to stop all this from happening, Nick Fury immediately spoke.
"Director!"
After hearing Nick Fury's words, Dr. Aurora Bolton also put down the things in his hands and walked towards the other party with sweat all over his head.
He really has no way to deal with this broken thing now. God knows how the cosmic cube, which has been stable all the time, can suddenly work at such a high intensity, and even the energy fluctuations are still rising.
If this continues, sooner or later the entire earth will be blown up by the cosmic cube.
And this is why Aurora Bolton did not evacuate at the first time.
Because it has reached this level, unless the cosmic cube can suddenly cool down, it will be the same wherever you run.
Just like that, Dr. Aurora Bolton and Hill have the same view.
"So what do we know now?"
After watching the other party walk in front of him, Nick Fury asked directly.
"Sorry, sir, the Cosmic Cube is a little bit disobedient now."
After walking in front of the other party, Dr. Aurora Bolton spoke in a black humorous tone.
"So should I smile?"
After hearing the other party's words, Nick Fury also said with a fake smile.
Compared with employees, he actually prefers Asian employees, who work seriously and meticulously, and will not make some inappropriate jokes at critical moments like the other party, but he is also used to the fact that American employees like to joke at critical moments.
It can only be said that each has its own good.
"No, I'm not kidding."
"The Cosmic Cube was not only awakened automatically, but it is also operating autonomously."
"If this continues, how long will it take for us to collectively go to see God?"
Looking at Nick Fury in front of her, Dr. Aurora Bolton immediately spoke.
And the researcher on the side seemed to verify Dr. Aurora Bolton's words. He took a metal stick and put it in front of the Cosmic Cube. When he tried to touch this thing, it was only a brief contact. The power leaked by the Cosmic Cube smashed the metal stick into ashes.
"Why don't we try to unplug the power?"
Looking at the severe environment at the scene, Nick Fury immediately suggested.
After all, the Cosmic Cube has always been driven by energy to produce energy to make weapons. Since it is energy-driven, it can definitely be blocked by shutting down the energy.
"No, sir. The Cosmic Cube itself is a huge energy source. We extract energy from it, so there is no such thing as unplugging the power supply."
"And we also tried to turn off the power supply, but it turned on by itself and could not be turned off at all."
"If its energy level continues to rise, then..."
After hearing Nick Fury's words, Dr. Aurora Bolton led the other party towards the Cosmic Cube and spoke.
"Isn't this what we want, Dr. Aurora Bolton?"
"Use the energy of the Cosmic Cube to create more powerful energy weapons."
After watching the other party walk back to the research table of the Cosmic Cube, Nick Fury also spoke louder.
In Nick Fury's view, this time the riot of the Cosmic Cube is both a danger and an opportunity.
If they can effectively absorb and transform the energy erupted by the Cosmic Cube, then how powerful the weapons made by this energy will be, Nick Fury can't even imagine.
According to his conservative estimate, at least the entire continent can be destroyed.
At that time, with this weapon, SHIELD will jump back to the throne of the world's first armed force.
Instead of being crushed by a mere technology company like now.
As a result, the Council has reduced its funding for SHIELD. He believes that if he didn't still hold the super killer weapon, the World Security Council would have given up SHIELD long ago.
But even so, the current situation is not much better, because with Avangard constantly producing technology and selling new weapons to major countries in the world, SHIELD is dispensable to them.
Even if it continues, Nick Fury feels that even if they successfully develop the cosmic cube to the third stage, those people will not take a second look.
So Nick Fury also knows that if SHIELD wants to survive the next transformation and successfully return to its previous status, then a little radicalism is inevitable.
And this is why, in recent years, he has asked his men to vigorously develop the cosmic cube, at least to exceed the extent of Hydra's previous application of the cosmic cube.
"But we have no way to control it, sir."
"We are still far from even using it."
"We have only been making weapons with the 'waste' it produces, and there is almost no in-depth discovery of its own exploration."
After hearing Nick Fury's words, Dr. Aurora Bolton spoke ruthlessly at this time.
After all, the technological system contained in the Cosmic Cube itself can be said to have surpassed several huge technological civilization levels for the current Earth.
It is simply impossible to crack or use the Cosmic Cube with the current human technological system.
And what they have done now, including some energy weapons made with the Cosmic Cube, is nothing more than the waste that this thing usually spits out.
To put it bluntly, it is the 'excrement' of the Cosmic Cube.
For humans, the Cosmic Cube is more like a living creature, with its own joys, sorrows, anger, and thoughts. They can only appease it according to the Cosmic Cube's temper so that it can produce more energy.
As for wanting to tame the Cosmic Cube, use it to fight, or even explore the essence of its existence, it's like asking an ape to fly a fighter jet.
This is totally out of date.
"It's releasing interference and radiation, low-energy gamma rays, no harm."
But after saying that, looking at the shocked expression of Nick Fury in front of her, Dr. Aurora Bolton continued to speak.
"Maybe there will be harm."
"Where's Agent Barton?!"
After hearing the explanation of the doctor in front of him, Nick Fury, who realized that something was wrong, began to ask about the existence of another person.
"Up there!"
In response to Nick Fury's words, Dr. Aurora Bolton pointed to the fence not far away and spoke.
Agent Barton is a transcendent existence in this base. It can be said that the person in charge of the base cannot control it, nor can the armed personnel. He can directly intervene or even stop anything in the base that he thinks involves the Cosmic Cube.
Of course, Dr. Aurora Bolton has no opinion on this.
After all, with such a super agent as a security guarantee, and he himself had no other small thoughts, the other party's existence could be said to be the best protection for him, so he was happy with it.
"Agent Barton!!"
"I asked you to come here so that you can observe the situation at a closer distance."
After hearing what Dr. Aurora Bolton said, Nick Fury immediately looked at Barton, who was standing on the edge of the fence a hundred meters away and scanning the entire venue like an eagle's eye, and spoke on the intercom.
"Standing far away will make me see more clearly."
After hearing what Nick Fury said, Barton jumped directly and came down the rope neatly, then came to Nick Fury and said.
"So did you see clearly what activated it?!"
Without caring about how the other party observed the scene, Nick Fury just wanted to ask about the other party's observation of the Cosmic Cube.
After all, Hawkeye and Black Widow in front of him can be said to be the few super agents under his command who are trustworthy and can play a big role.
"Doctor, the energy level has reached its peak again."
As the two talked, the cosmic cube not far away once again burst out energy, pushing the entire energy field to a new peak.
"No one is coming in or out, and Dr. Aurora Bolton is also fine."
"No one is in contact with the outside world or transmitting information."
"If there is anything abnormal, then according to my speculation, it is not from our side, Sir!"
After walking close to the cosmic cube with Nick Fury, Hawkeye Barton, who looked at this small palm-sized thing with infinite energy, also spoke immediately.
"From our side? What do you mean?"
After hearing Barton's report, Nick Fury, who seemed to have grasped the key point, also looked at the other party and asked with a cold sweat.
Until now, Nick Fury knew what the thing he had overlooked was.
Yes, the Cosmic Cube. From the very beginning, they only cared about using this thing to make powerful energy weapons, but ignored its own power. It was a powerful artifact used in the legendary Odin's treasure house to teleport in the universe.
"Of course, according to our data, isn't the Cosmic Cube a transmission channel to the other end of the universe?"
"Since it is a channel, it means it is bidirectional."
After hearing Nick Fury's question, Hawkeye shrugged and continued as if nothing had happened.
Anyway, he was just chatting about these views he said, after all, he was not a researcher with a doctorate or a mentor's resume.
He was just expounding on his own idea.
However, for Barton, this was just an idea, but for Nick Fury, it was the key to the problem.
Just when he wanted to turn around and prepare, the Cosmic Cube suddenly burst out with huge energy fluctuations, sweeping the entire underground research base.
The agents in the entire underground base began to look around worriedly.
After all, they are now underground, and if this intensity of vibration continues, the consequences will not be good for them. (End of this chapter)
