American comics: Playing Spider-Man at the beginning, wandering around and losing contact

Chapter 65 Riot
The vast sky was gradually getting darker, and large patches of twilight clouds were a depressing dark red. They slowly moved over from the other end of the sky, gradually seeming to cover half of the sky.

A huge spaceship passed by, and the roar of its huge engine was enough to tell that the spaceship was running at full power. Driving from the east coast to the west coast, across most of the federal territory, was a very thankless task.

At this moment, in the command room of the spacecraft, Eric, with a bandaged arm, was standing majestically with his hands behind his back, however, that half of his body was trembling slightly from time to time, and it was still obvious that the previous battle that destroyed the S.H.I.E.L.D. building had caused extremely serious damage to his body.

Nick also truly realized that what he had been worrying about had probably become a reality.

"Mr. Fury, Coulson is already on his way to Stark Tower. He said he would try his best to persuade Mr. Tony Stark..."

In Nick's ear, the man responsible for delivering the telegram informed him of Coulson's news.

However, Nick just nodded slightly.

He glanced at the upper right corner and saw the projected virtual monitoring screen. In the lounge of the spaceship, Captain America Steve arrived as promised. His duty was to guard the security of the Federation.

Loki's wanton destruction had already alerted the military, and at the same time, it also allowed Steve to join his SHIELD spaceship. At this time, Steve was accompanied by two agents, Black Widow Natasha and Hawkeye Clint, who looked serious and ready for battle.

These three, plus Tony Stark, are all part of Nick's plan.

But, this was Nick’s plan before today.

After seeing clearly the power of the scepter in Loki's hand, Nick truly realized how terrifying the alien forces that could truly threaten the human race were!

That purple gem seemed to have the conceptual ability to annihilate and decompose all matter. The hardest substance on earth could not withstand the attack of the purple gem!

"Director, the president's office called. He asked me to ask you when he can see SHIELD's planned combat capabilities."

Communications personnel nervously relayed messages from Washington.

In the early days of the Avengers plan, Nick had commissioned the president to apply to Congress for tens of billions of dollars in funding, and he had also privately asked people to review a lot of records, including top-secret documents in the Pentagon. The president had always turned a blind eye to these things.

Hearing this, Nick's face didn't look very good, and he pursed his lips tightly. It was unknown whether it was because of the injury on his hand, or because of the nervousness caused by the fact that what was going to happen was out of control.

In the command room, on the largest virtual screen, a map of the East Coast was projected, with numerous live reports from various news outlets next to it.

Bright red exclamation marks kept appearing on the electronic map, indicating that another accident causing heavy casualties had occurred in that area.

The level of panic caused by an attack of this magnitude far exceeds the terrorist incident caused by the Middle Eastern pilot that year.

At this point, the president must have been extremely worried.

No wonder he anxiously sent a message to SHIELD that sounded like a question.

Nick looked up and scanned the news reports on the screen one by one.

Behind those reporters, there was a steady stream of military troops dispatched.

"Reporting from Boston..."

"Florida urgently wants to announce a message..."

……

Nick sighed.

After Loki showed up, the Hydra people hiding in local government agencies began to expose their identities one after another in order to cause riots.

And the way they caused the riot was much more complicated than Nick imagined.

In the live broadcast, well-trained soldiers kept approaching a building, but soon, a fierce laser shot out from the building and directly cut the approaching soldier in half!
Mutants... no, to be more precise, Hydra has something in its hands that can cause the mutants to lose control of their minds to a certain extent.

Those mutants hiding in the streets and alleys have now become the main force of this riot.

"I'm sorry to the citizens who support me..." On the news, the mayor of New York looked grief-stricken and beat his chest.

"Maybe I shouldn't have cancelled those special regulations targeting mutants! If I could put one more mutant in jail, maybe fewer citizens would have been injured today..."

In the face of the crisis, racist speech once again spread across the federation like locusts.

Nick narrowed his eyes.

"Turn off the news, it's too noisy."

He warned the people around him, then changed the subject and asked:
"How long are we away from our destination now?"

The subordinate looked at the map and replied:

"Sir, your destination is Colorado. We have now arrived at the state border..."

Nick nodded, his expression slightly relieved, as if among so many nightmarish news, only this news made him feel a little relieved.

Tony had told him before that his hot-tempered friend seemed unable to join them.

Nick knew that with Steve and others on the spaceship, plus Tony who might arrive, these few people alone might be more than enough to deal with other foreign forces, or even defeat them easily.

However, they were still too weak before Loki, who held the scepter of the power gem.

Nick, who had felt the power of the Infinity Stones up close, was now feeling palpitations.

He had to find someone he could trust.

He reached into his pocket, took out a communicator, looked at the number on it, hesitated slightly, and dialed it.

A few seconds of anxious waiting.

Then the call was connected, and a very familiar voice came from the other end.

"Chief Nick?"

"Kaylus, I have tracked down your location now. Have you and your friends finished dealing with everything? If you have, maybe I have some things to do here."

Nick hesitated as he tried to organize his words, seeming to stutter a little.

……

Central Colorado, in the wilderness.

Kailus' figure stood quietly on the desolate land, and the X-Men beside him were nowhere to be seen.

He held the communicator in his hand and looked at the area of ​​skin on his palm that was gradually being entangled by black threads.

"Dealing with things... If I remember correctly, are you planning to go to Stuttgart next?"

Kailus muttered to himself, closing his eyes and recalling in his mind.

If he remembered correctly, Loki should be on his way to Stuttgart now.

If there is only the Cosmic Cube, it will limit the original power of the Space Stone.

And in Stuttgart, there is what Loki wants.
