Shadow of the Beautiful World

When Merlin met Fei Guoshan, it was the first time he realized that there was an unknown dark force hidden inside S.H.I.E.L.D. At that time, he was not sure whether Fury was trustworthy, so he did not send The news of the existence of Fei Guoshan was told to the director.

In the later confrontation with the Decepticon fighters smash and bounce ball, Merlin also concealed the existence of b-127, that is, the hornet, but handed over the wreckage of the bounce ball and the captured smash to S.H.I.E.L.D.

A long time has passed now, and Fury's suspicion has long been cleared.

As for the crushed female Decepticon that was captured back then, according to the information Merlin got, that mechanical life should be placed in a research laboratory, and it seems that it has been disassembled by the scientists of S.H.I.E.L.D. for research up.

Researching and dismantling a living mechanical life has brought many black technologies far beyond this era to the Science and Technology Department of SHIELD, and these black technologies have also been learned and used by scientists.

According to Fury, on the weapon platform named Aegis War Fortress, which has entered the end of the construction period, a lot of black technology obtained from mechanical life is also used.

Although Fury didn't say much about the mysterious war fortress, Merlin can probably guess something.

If that thing can really go online as scheduled, then the current combat system of S.H.I.E.L.D. will inevitably usher in a qualitative leap.

At midnight, in a parking lot near the interstate on the outskirts of New York City, Fury was leaning against the front of his off-road-powered GM SUV, a glass of fat house water with ice in his hand, this time Rare did not wear the iconic trench coat, replaced by a tracksuit and a black plush hat, looking like a neater homeless man.

While looking around vigilantly, he kept checking the time, waiting for Merlin's arrival.

What's the matter with this guy?

Fury looked at his watch again. He said:

He's never late. What's the trouble?

hum

A few minutes later, just as Fury was about to make another call to Merlin, a low and noisy engine sounded on the road not far from the parking lot. Fury raised his head and saw a blue painted car The lights of the heavy motorcycle lit up in front of his eyes, and the lights were a bit dazzling.

There was a knight sitting on that motorcycle, and the windbreaker of the unclear knight fluttered like wings in the dark night while it was running fast.

Fury's fingers were on his waist, on the butt of the gun, but after a few seconds, he relaxed. Through the unique eye behind the blindfold, Fury saw the face of the rider on the heavy motorcycle.

The galloping motorcycle stopped in front of Fury with a beautiful tail swing. Merlin who was sitting on the car pushed his glasses, took a look at Fury's attire, and said:

This homeless man's disguise is good, Director, it seems that although you have been sitting in the office all these years, you are still young.

snort

Fury snorted. He drank the fat house water in his hand and threw the cup into the trash can not far away. He looked at Merlin and then at the beautiful blue heavy motorcycle beside him. He asked:

Since when did you start playing this?

One must have a hobby.

Merlin looked back at the parking lot. In the parking space behind Fury's SUV, there were parked a yellow Camaro sports car and a classic red and black Dodge Challenger.

Seeing the two cars, Merlin nodded, and he said to Fury:

Very good, everyone is here.

Are you all here?

Fury looked around, and he said to Merlin suspiciously:

It's just the two of us waiting here.

Fury is not stupid after all. Although Merlin didn't tell him about Fei Guoshan and Bumblebee, Fury also knew that the Cybertronians existed. He first glanced at the blue motorcycle beside Merlin, and then followed Merlin glanced at the two cars parked behind him, and said:

No wonder, I felt like I was being watched just now, Cybertronian?

crash

The moment Fury's voice fell, the three Cyber ​​Tambo fighters transformed at the same time. Amidst the slightly harsh and noisy collision of mechanical gears and metal modules, it also sounded like a slightly low-pitched rainstorm. Under Rui's slightly curious gaze, Fei Guoshan, the three robots Bumblebee and Arcee quickly stood under the night in New York.

This isn't the first time Merlin has seen a Cybertronian woman.

But compared to the previous Decepticon female warrior Smash, Miss Arcee's figure transformed from a motorcycle is more slender and petite. Compared with Smash's mechanical appearance, Arcie's appearance is also similar to that of a human being. .

The Autobots seem to have this characteristic, and their human forms are milder than those of the Decepticons.

first meet

Arcie noticed Merlin's gaze. The blue-painted Miss Cybertron half-kneeled on the ground, stretched out her hand towards Merlin, and said to Merlin in a cold and friendly voice with a strong metallic sound. :

Please take care of me.

Of course, of course.

Merlin also stretched out his hand and touched the huge and cold palm of the mechanical lady. He looked back at Fury. The director was looking up, looking at Bumblebee with big eyes.

This guy looks like a bee

Fury complained to Merlin:

I guess, this is the b-127 that escaped from the Department of Defense at that time? They have been in touch with you?

Yes, something happened at that time.

Merlin says:

At that time, it was just out of helplessness to hide you, but after seeing that you were so busy, I never told you about their existence.

nothing.

Fury waved his hand openly, and said casually:

It's like I have some things to hide from you. It's normal for you to have some secrets, Merlin. But at this time, you choose to reveal their existence. Does it mean that what you told me about the real 'Seventh District' Things, are there any clues?

Well, we found it.

Merlin handed a USB flash drive to Fury, who returned to his car, took out a tablet computer, and briefly browsed the information on the USB flash drive, especially when he saw the little robot activated by the electric arc. At that time, Fury's expression suddenly became very ugly:

It seems that since the last setback, the Ministry of Defense has been cooperating with the Decepticons, and it is very likely that it has been infiltrated by alien forces.

He turned to Merlin and said:

This is a very serious accusation, but if the information you brought is true, then the Ministry of Defense, at least those in charge of the Seventh District, are rotten to the root.

This is normal.

The Cybertronian sitting cross-legged next to Fury flew over the urn and said in a low voice:

Human beings have desires that haunt their hearts. During the years when Bumblebee and I have traveled around the world, we have fully realized this. Many people cannot control their minds in the face of the temptation of wealth, but for us Cybertronians To put it simply, it is very simple to get a large amount of money from your current financial system without anyone noticing.

'Confusion' is likely to seduce your companions with inexhaustible money.

Bumblebee, too, said in his own queer voice, taken from a radio clip:

Not to mention, the Decepticons' tape corps responsible for intelligence collection are all here. Several of them can emit electromagnetic waves of special frequencies to manipulate, interfere with, and influence the thinking of carbon-based creatures. It's like deep hypnosis. I'm not familiar with it. Humans with their abilities are likely to be recruited quietly. Human thinking is very complicated, but it is not impossible to be manipulated.

Fury nodded, and the director looked at the screen in front of him with a sinking face, looking at the experimental data and video materials taken from the database of the Ministry of National Defense. After a while, he asked:

The 'fire' that can activate and endow all electronic technologies with strange life forms is now in the hands of the Ministry of Defense?

Yes.

Merlin says:

Not only is the fire in their hands, but also the super mechanical tyrant Megatron we tried to find in the Hoover Dam last time, the leader of the frozen Decepticons, is also in their base, although I don't know why Those Decepticons working with the Ministry of Defense did not awaken the Megatron, but we still have to consider how we will respond once the powerful Megatron is awakened.

Magtron is an out-and-out violent element.

Arcie, Miss Steel's sister, said with her hips crossed, standing on the side in a very feminine posture. She is shorter than Flying Over the Mountain and Bumblebee, but she is also 2.5 meters tall. Both Fury and Merlin have to He looked up to see her face.

It treats non-Cybertronian life with ruthlessness. Not only is it the most powerful warrior of all Cybertronians, it is also an excellent strategist and commander. IMHO, if you can't recover in Megatron If we end this battle before, we will have no chance of winning if we only rely on the few of us.

If I'm not mistaken, are you planning a raid?

Fury glanced at the three Cybertronians around him, he turned to look at Merlin, and said:

But you found time to see me again, so what do you need me to do?

This matter must be said face to face. After the appearance of Decepticons who are good at intelligence collection, the security of any communication equipment can no longer be guaranteed.

Merlin said seriously:

Take these things to see Pierce, Fury, and I will grab the fire with my Cybertron friends, and then prevent the Magtron from being activated by those lunatics.

But this matter is different from the previous ones. The Ministry of National Defense is not our apparent enemy. In order to prevent the situation from deteriorating further, we need power from high levels to suppress the current situation.

The soldiers of the Ministry of Defense who don't know the truth can't pose a threat to the Cybertronians, but they can interfere with our operations. The Decepticons may not care how many human soldiers are killed or injured, but I do.

Merlin pushed his glasses, he glanced at Bumblebee and Fei Guoshan, and added:

Our Autobot friends care too.

Are you going to take your subordinates?

Fury asked:

How many people do you want to bring?

No, this is covert action, Fury.

Merlin pointed to himself, and he said:

I alone, plus three cybertron friends should be enough. To mobilize formal armed forces to attack the important bases of our allies without permission, and try to steal research objects that are extremely important to human civilization, this pot, Even you can't afford it, Fury.

Merlin took out his pocket watch to check the time, and he said to Fury:

If all goes well, at dawn we will be back.

Okay, I'm going to see Pierce right now.

Fury opened the car door, rolled down the window, and said to Merlin:

The old man should have been sent home, so I wish you a smooth operation.

Wait, Fury.

Merlin took a palm-sized part from Bumblebee, handed it to Fury, and said:

Put this thing in your pocket, and it can detect the Decepticons in disguise nearby. These Cybertronians have unimaginable camouflage capabilities. You should always pay attention to all electronic products around you.

OK.

Fury gestured an OK gesture to Merlin, he quickly started his car, drove on the road, and disappeared from the sight of Merlin and the three Cybertron warriors.

After Fury left, Merlin looked back at the three mechanical friends and said:

Let's go too, and solve this matter quickly.

That base is in the desert of the Middle East.

Flying over the urn said in a low voice:

You have special magical powers, you can pass quickly, but we can't, Merlin, we are not Decepticons, we can't fly.

piece of cake!

Merlin snapped his fingers, took out Xuanlan's remade arbitrary door from the magic pocket, placed it at the exit of the parking lot, and opened the door.

He reached out and opened the door of Flying Over the Mountain. Sitting in the cab, he said to the three robots:

See that door? Speed ​​up and rush through!

Are you serious, Merlin.

Arcee's deformed motorcycle was galloping around Feiguoshan, and Miss Steel asked:

This isn't a joke, is it?

It's not rushing.

Merlin patted the steering wheel of Fei Guoshan, and a few seconds later, amidst the low humming sound of the engine, Fei Guoshan rushed to the door that could only allow two people to pass side by side. The muscle car was about to smash the wooden door easily, but at the next moment, in the beating light of any door, the body flying over the mountain was distorted by the light, as if it had rushed into a black hole, and disappeared in the blink of an eye. In a parking lot on the outskirts of New York City.

After flying behind the mountain, the Bumblebee's transformed sports car made a weird horn sound, and then rushed into the door at an extremely fast speed.

Finally, Arcee, the unmanned blue motorcycle cautiously approached the pink wooden door, she tentatively drove the front wheel into any door, but the next moment, Xuanlan's hand appeared Arcie's motorcycle handlebars, and twisted hard.

hum

Amidst Arcee's screams, the steel lady also quickly rushed into any door, and then landed in the Middle East desert thousands of miles away.

Tsk tsk, this upside-down landing posture is a bit too ugly.
