The era of American comics begins

Chapter 56 From Outer Heaven
The Quinjet fighter landed slowly and steadily on the edge of the sparkling lake, and there was a rustling sound when the air flow blew into the dense woods.The elevator gangway at the tail of the plane was lowered, and Skye, who was carrying a luggage bag, followed Coulson out of the plane.

The view of this place is really nice.The water of the lake is as clear as a mirror, and there is a trace of mysterious white mist floating on the surface of the lake.The trees by the lake are lush and lush, and they make a soft "rustling" sound in the breeze, like singing a sweet lullaby.The wind passing through the woods caresses the surface of the lake, and the blue waves cover one layer after another, like green silk and satin.

There is a wooden hut built right by the lake. The structure is simple and small, but it is a good place for vacation.But Skye wasn't in the mood for a vacation at the moment. She followed Coulson and walked towards the cabin, all she could think about were those big men who had become famous and lived in seclusion from the outside world.She felt as if she was developing along such a line.

"This used to be one of Director Fury's hideouts. I haven't been here for several years." Coulson led her into the house and put the backpack on a wooden table.

Skye looked at the environment in the cabin: "Furry doesn't seem like the kind of person who would hide in a cabin and relax. So what is this place?"

"A safe house for supernatural beings." Coulson explained, "Captain America stayed here for a few weeks when he first thawed."

Skye knew that Captain America was Coulson's most admired super idol since he was a child. He must have mentioned the captain in the hope that it would make Skye feel better about the next thing, but it didn't help much.

Skye took a deep breath. "Okay, but who is the 'safe house' for? The psychic? Or the other people around?"

"Both." Coulson paused, "Sky, I'm afraid I have to prohibit you from doing any field missions."

"I understand." She said softly.

Yes, she understood, but what was the use of understanding?
She'd done her best these days to pretend everything was normal to other people, but she couldn't fool herself that she didn't care.SHIELD used to be her home, and Agent of SHIELD was the most meaningful identity in her inexplicable life.

But now she is about to lose this identity, and not only that, she has to be locked in this small cage with a pleasant view.She suddenly felt like the kind of werewolf who was going to have an attack on the night of the full moon. Once the attack came, she had to be isolated, and she could only be picked up when she returned to normal.

Oh, and she didn't know if she'd ever be picked up or not.

"You won't be alone here," Coulson reassured.

"Really? I don't think it looks like there's a neighbor here either."

"There is a direct video line between here and the base, and Mei will visit you in a few days."

"So what am I supposed to do here? Fishing?"

"If you are going to go out, be careful." Coulson said, "There is a laser fence around the area."

Skye had nothing to say.

Great, and laser fencing.How could this place be more like a cage?
Coulson put his hand on her shoulder: "Look, this place is very safe, you can relax completely, don't think too much. You can explore and learn how to control your abilities. Everyone is looking forward to your ability Come back to the front."

"Well, I understand." She nodded.

Coulson gave her one last hug and left.Skye lay on the outside of the window glass, staring blankly at the Quinjet fighter jets by the lake igniting and taking off, rising into the sky with rumbling roar.She just raised her head and looked at it, until the black fighter turned into a small black spot in the distant sky before she looked back.

"Okay, Skye." She turned her head, looked around the things in the hut, and said to herself, "welcome to the first day of isolation."

into the night.

The blurred afterimage broke through the atmosphere wrapped in the raging flames, whistling and hissing and falling down.The flames trailing behind it drew a long arc, as if cutting the night sky in half.

It swooped down towards a dense forest among the mountains at constant speed, releasing an astonishing shock when it landed.Dazzling flames shot up high, and the scalding impact tore apart the tall giant trees, and the thick trunks fell down one after another in the thick dust.

The smoke gradually dissipated, and the flames were burning ferociously. A tall and burly figure slowly walked out of the huge pothole, and stood on the mound that was pushed out by the impact.

It was a big man in bright black armor and a long black coat.His skin was an eerie dark blue and he had a forbidding face.He carried a heavy battle ax with a complex structure on his shoulder, and the edge of the ax reflected the sparkling fire, as if he was a Hercules who came out of some fairy tale.

He took out a small instrument and placed it flat in his open palm.It was a gadget like an electronic compass. When the switch was activated, a fan-shaped screen with an obtuse central angle popped up. A virtual pointer on the screen rotated left and right as if being pulled by something.

The pointer quickly locked in a certain direction.

The big blue-skinned man squinted his eyes and stared in that direction for a moment.He put away the instrument, picked up the tomahawk, and walked into the depths of the dense forest.

After processing and assembling with several robotic arms for most of the day, Michael finally completed the gauntlet of the right forearm part of the anti-vibrator gold armor.

At this moment, he is putting on this gauntlet himself and conducting various performance tests.He tested the output, mobility, whether the energy supply pipeline is operating normally, and the energy transmission efficiency. In the end, the various performance data fed back by this gauntlet are quite satisfactory.

"The gauntlet works well, but the receiving port needs to be adjusted." Michael took off the armor and put it back on the test bench. "Record the experimental data, and we can almost start preparing for the assembly of other parts."

"No problem, sir." Shirley said, "By the way, Ms. Maximov has received the gift from you. She left a message on the phone saying that she hopes to thank you in person and expresses her apology for the inappropriate remarks last time. .Need a call back?"

"No, mark the message as read." Michael said lightly, and at the same time began to call out the design drawings of other parts of the armor.

However, not long after he got back to work, Shirley had to interrupt his progress.

"Sorry to bother you, sir, but I'm afraid there's another urgent message here that you'll want to pay attention to," she said, "A Tianjian satellite used for deep space exploration has just detected a UFO visiting from outside the sky, a few minutes ago Just entered the atmosphere."

Michael stopped what he was doing.

"You mean aliens?"

"The satellite track identification shows that the other party is from outer space. The signal does not match any frequency known to the earth, and contact cannot be made. So if you want me to speculate, yes, I think it may be aliens."

Michael took off his protective goggles for work, and stood up from the lab bench.

Matters related to extraterrestrials may be the most serious issues in the world at present. Considering that the earth in the Marvel world may have faced various devastating disasters from extraterrestrials, it is not prudent to deal with extraterrestrial events. Too much.

"Do you need to send the nearby Heavenly Sword team out?"

"No need." Michael quickly walked towards the display case of the battle clothes, "I'll go and see for myself."
