Shadow of the Beautiful World

What did you say?

In the umbrella base of Raccoon City, Mrs. Hydra opened her eyes in surprise when she heard the bad news.

There was an expression of disbelief on her face. It's like hearing the funniest and most absurd joke in the world.

She patted the table and shouted to the agent in front of her:

Just 3 bases! We sent 9 contingents!

I also gave them everything they needed, even the tyrants that came with them for support

It's less than an hour since the start of the operation, but you told me

They were wiped out?!

Mrs. Larson felt an indescribable irony at this moment.

she screamed:

That's nearly 2,500 people! Even if there are more than 2,000 pigs, they won't be killed within an hour, right?

Our attack caught s.d.o.l.d. off guard, and we had a big advantage at first.

The Hydra agent who came to report also felt a little incredible.

However, in the face of this unreasonable fiasco, he still tried his best to explain:

But the cunning Merlin made preparations in advance. He anticipated our actions, and that vicious guy set a trap!

trap?

A cold light flashed in Lady Hydra's eyes, and she said:

What trap?

He's hiding a never-classed super mutant in Ghost Base!

The Hydra agent handed a tablet computer to Mrs. Larson, and he swore:

Look, ma'am, this is the picture our soldiers sent back from there

That's definitely the most powerful mutant, just like Magneto, she hides there, and after our soldiers rush in, she traps and slaughters them.

Afterwards, the Thunder Special Attack Team started the self-destruction process of the base, and buried hundreds of our brothers there.

The lady looked down at the screen on the tablet.

In the constantly shaking picture, she saw the scene of Lilian urging the vines to weave the entire empty underground space into a plant hell.

Even her most proud work, the powerful tyrant, was restrained, pierced, and wrapped into a ball of vines in the flurry of vines.

That scene was powerful.

All right.

Lady Hydra frowned and said:

If it is such an opponent, the numerical advantage of ordinary soldiers is really not worth mentioning.

But what about the island prison and Pegasus base?

It's Hulk! Ma'am.

Hydra agents explained:

The cunning Merlin hid Hulk in the Pegasus base, but he didn't tell anyone about it. There is also a tricky 'watch' team there to help.

He gritted his teeth and cursed:

The Mad Hulk wiped out two of our task forces by himself

Lady Hydra adjusted the screen to the perspective of Pegasus Base.

In the footage, there was nothing in front of the advancing soldiers, and everything seemed to be going well until they entered the test area.

A big green man tearing through the wall like a beast appeared in front of the terrified soldiers.

The two tyrants rushed forward to stop the angry Hulk, but were punched and sent flying by the green monster.

Hulk, smash it!

boom

There was a chaotic noise from the tablet, with screams, and the Hulk roaring, and then the whole picture faded to black.

Okay, Hulk

A big Chuan was wrinkled on the forehead of Mrs. Hydra.

She clenched her fists, suppressing the anger in her heart, and said:

The appearance of that monster was an accident. Well, this failure is also understandable. Island Prison

Um?

The lady swiped her finger on the tablet, and she saw the scene of the destruction of the task force at the island prison.

She looked at the picture speechlessly, and after a while, she said in a cold tone:

What's the matter with this orange cat?

That's Merlin's cat.

The Hydra agent said with difficulty:

It's called Goo Goo, we've never noticed it before

Trash! It's all trash!

Lady Hydra broke out completely at this moment, she screamed:

This is the guarantee you swore? You tell me that you have all the information about Merlin!

This is what you have in hand? Shit!!!

You don't even know what Merlin's cat is! Get out! Get out!

Madame Hydra smashes the tablet on the table at the distraught Hydra agent.

But the next moment, Madam calmed down again, and she said:

He still has a dog, doesn't he?

Bring back all the soldiers who went to capture Merlin's family! Damn it! Who knows what kind of monster that dog is?

That lady, that

The Hydra agent who had retreated to the door swallowed hard, and said in an inaudible voice:

The two task forces have also lost contact.

Um?

Lady Hydra's eyes became dangerous.

Under her gaze, the agent said shamelessly:

The soldiers who went to capture Merlin's sisters were ambushed by four Cybertronian robots as soon as they entered Hell's Kitchen

Merlin's car, Agent Coulson's car, and two taxis

As for the soldiers who went to capture sister Merlin's family, they ran into Wolverine just as they opened the door.

Logan?

Madam said in surprise:

Isn't he in Europe?

Nobody knows why he popped up in Queens, but

Okay, stop talking! Get out! I don't want to see you anymore!

HYDRA's incursion into the s.d.o.l.d. sector was a total failure.

With the help of the wizards, the internal system of the entire s.d.o.l.d. was barely sour and intact.

But elsewhere, Hydra riots have been very successful.

On the land of North America, countless prisons and detention institutions have been breached from within, and many cities have fallen into sudden chaos.

On the east coast, because several secret prisons of the Sky Eye Society were broken through, many super criminals also joined the carnival, causing the chaotic situation in several cities to be completely unstoppable.

And some cities with bad law and order have now entered a state of dire straits.

Just like Gotham.

boom

In Gotham, the door to the famous Arkham Asylum was kicked open.

Amidst the sound of the chain breaking, the clown, holding a colorful cane, walked into this special prison with ease, under the escort of several tyrants.

Although Arkham is called a lunatic asylum, it is not dead here. It is a real treatment institution.

In Gotham City, many super criminals have psychological problems of one kind or another, and it is completely undesirable to throw them into ordinary prisons.

So the Gotham City government made a special black gate prison for these guys for supernatural criminals.

But those with serious mental problems were thrown into Arkham Asylum.

They are here for all kinds of psychological treatment, while serving their sentences here.

In Gotham, Arkham Asylum is synonymous with hell.

The clown is a frequent visitor here.

He even had his own deluxe single room in the asylum.

Believe me, this is not the treatment that ordinary criminals can have.

boom

A bullet shot out from the dark passage and shot at the clown's head, but the tyrant beside him waved his claws and easily blocked it.

The bullet hit the tyrant's gray-black arm, only splashing sparks.

Wow, such a grand welcome ceremony?

The clown, who had a feeling of returning home, didn't care about the bullets.

With a malicious smile on his face, he waved his fingers, and the next moment, a tyrant rushed into the dark passage with heavy steps.

I can hear very well!

In Arkham, you can always develop super hearing.

The clown waved his cane and walked into the passage, he chattered to the indifferent Winter Soldier who was following him:

Those bastards always like to mess around at night, so loud that you can't sleep at all. But without their noise, you will feel that the world is too quiet

Oh, I'm really hopeless.

The clown touched his cheek sadly, he stroked the wound on his face, and said:

After being away from here for so long, I actually miss it

Miss the electric shocks every 3 days, miss the bastards dirty jokes, miss this damn hell

The Winter Soldier, who survived the melee on the New Jersey coast earlier, was silent.

He followed the clown into the boiling and noisy Arkham Asylum.

In the darkness, his indifferent expression suddenly changed, and he said in a jerky voice:

What did you do to me?

I lifted their mind control over you, friend.

The clown waved his cane like a magician.

With his hands behind his back, he let out a hey laugh, and said:

You're welcome, Bucky.

The Winter Soldier's mind is no longer as empty as it used to be, and his chaotic memory fragments are tumbling in the release of the golden apple.

But he has been brainwashed too many times, and his memory has been reshaped too many times, making his brain just like Wolverine's.

No, worse than Logan.

Those shimmering memory fragments simply cannot be pieced together into a reasonable memory.

It's as if the memories of countless people were kneaded together, shredded randomly, and then glued together again.

This is not the recovery of memory, the return of personality.

For the Winter Soldier, used to being a mindless weapon, it was just another torture.

Why are you doing this?

Amidst the Joker's sharp laughter, the Winter Soldier gritted his teeth and said:

What do you want to do?

I just did a handy favor.

The clown waved his hand indifferently, bent down, and took the blood-stained key from the guard whose head had been torn off by the tyrant.

He waved the thing around in his hand, making a clanking sound, and said:

I just saw the surprise and shock in the eyes of that legendary hero when he saw your face

Me, I don't know what kind of love-hate relationship you have, but I think it's interesting.

The Joker looked back at the Winter Soldier, and he said:

Don't think too much Bucky, if you don't know what to do, just follow your heart

Hey, your heart will tell you what to do.

Besides, what's the point of watching a beast whose mind has been wiped out kill people?

The clown dropped a malicious word, and he whistled calmly.

He picked up the key and opened the cell at hand. A few seconds later, a sharper female voice came from the cell.

Honey! You came to save me? I knew it, I knew it! You won't give up on me! Come and kiss me

Harry?

The clown's slightly flustered voice sounded from the cell, and he shouted:

Why are you still here? Didn't you already run away? Damn, don't touch me and don't touch there! Damn!

Ten minutes later, in the dining room of Arkham Asylum, where the guards were supposed to rest and eat.

The Joker is standing on the table, and before his eyes, all the prisoners in Arkham have been released.

These weird-looking guys remained silent. They looked at the clown standing on the table, and their eyes flashed fiercely from time to time.

People here are not normal.

But they are not afraid of clowns, even though they have all heard of clowns.

The reason why they remained silent was because a few tyrants were staring at them around the restaurant.

Just now, the three guys who tried to attack the clown were torn apart by the tyrant's claws.

The disgusting body was dropped on the ground at the Joker's feet.

That was a blatant threat.

The clown knows how to communicate with this group of scum, he is very good at the only language violence these scum can understand!

Bang, bang

The colorful cane in the clown's hand moved on the table, making a low sound.

He pretended to cough a few times, and then said to the villains who were looking at him:

You all know me, so I won't introduce myself.

Listen to me, bastards! I need your help with a big job right now!

The clown spread his arms, and he said enthusiastically:

These days, I traveled to New York, that damn city is boring, not as vibrant as Gotham, so I want to make it more interesting

The clown blinked, and he said to the bastards with weird twinkles in their eyes:

People in New York, they have seen a lot, they always think they have seen all the weird things in this world, they think they have seen the real big scene

But I want them to know that they're just a bunch of bumpkins.

I want them to know that there are always things they haven't seen!

I want them to know what a real big scene is!

The clown waved the cane in his hand, turning the thing in circles, like a nervous commander.

He kept giving orders to his acquaintances in Arkham.

Scarecrow, get your damn gas ready, I'm going to spread it all over New York!

Riddler, don't you like to guess riddles with people? New York is a big city, and people there can guess riddles. I mean, have fun!

Harvey! Harvey, stop tossing your damn coin, pack your bags, change your clothes, and let's go to New York and play again.

Oh, yes, how could I forget you, my dear killer crocodile, are your teeth sharpened?

This time you can go on a killing spree.

While babbling and issuing orders, the clown opened his wrist and looked at the weird red children's watch on his wrist. He said in some surprise:

No, I've been in Arkham for 30 minutes, why hasn't my dear little bat appeared yet?

I brought him a lot of new friends.

No matter what, he will definitely come.

The clown touched his chin, and the corners of his mouth curled up, revealing a big smile.

He will definitely come to me.

He likes me. He likes to play games with me.

I know.

After finishing speaking, he was very gentlemanly, and turned towards a girl at the table who was wearing a clown costume, painted her beautiful face in colorful colors like a clown, had a fiery figure, and held a circus sledgehammer in her hand.

He said:

Come on, my dear Harley.

Today, you will return to the sad place in New York. You have grown up. No one can scare you there. You will become the mad queen there~
