"That's right, Ms. Natasha? The temporary SHIELD base you mentioned is in the sea below?"
Eddie leaned against the driver's seat and asked questioningly. He looked down through the windshield and saw the sea in front of him and below him was blue and vast. On the vast sea, there was no trace of any island or ship except the sea water and the occasional schools of fish jumping out.
Natasha smiled but did not give any relevant answer. She just concentrated on controlling the fighter plane. The speed and altitude kept decreasing, and soon they were less than a hundred meters away from the sea level.
Caesar coughed and said in a condescending manner, "Eddie, don't embarrass me. Just watch carefully."
"Okay." Eddie was bored and watched with wide eyes, wanting to see how a temporary SHIELD base could be created out of thin air.
Captain America Steve and Thor were still in the rear cabin, staring at the handcuffed Loki, and discussing in front of him how to deal with the series of crimes Loki had committed on Earth.
"We're almost there, sit tight, don't scare the shit out of you."
In response to Eddie's teasing, Natasha flexibly bounced on the virtual panel with her five fingers, and then pulled back the thruster on the pilot's instrument. The SHIELD fighter treated the sea surface below as the ground, and landed with the engine power shut down one by one.
"This is..." Eddie's eyes widened in surprise, and he saw that the originally calm sea below was suddenly covered with turbulent white waves within a thousand meters, and several sea whirlpools of different sizes were formed in an instant.
Then, the water surface gradually rose, and from the bottom of the sea, a steel fortress like an island emerged with a rumble.
A flat, wide and bright runway, countless black gun holes, and four giant Ferris wheel-like engine drives underneath, what comes into view is the most advanced technological creation on Earth.
Accompanied by the violent splashing of waves, the sea water flowed outward, quickly revealing the full picture of the steel fortress, which was actually an extra-large aircraft carrier battleship!
This extremely spectacular scene not only shocked Eddie, but also Steve and the other two looked at him in surprise.
Caesar was the one who was least surprised by this. There were originally three helicopter carriers, but one was destroyed when the Hydra spies were being exterminated, and the remaining two were taken by the original Kyle.
However, three years ago, Fury shamelessly came to Kyle and asked for one of the aircraft carriers back as a secret weapon for SHIELD to use in emergencies.
The Aegis fighter descended, cooperating with the aircraft carrier to surface from the deep sea, and landed on the deck where there was still some sea water.
Some hatches of the aircraft carrier opened, and many engineering vehicles and agents appeared on the deck one after another, and immediately began to prepare for battle after the aircraft carrier surfaced.
Led by Director Fury, a group of agents followed behind him and arrived under the SHIELD fighter jet to provide support in a swift and decisive manner.
The fighter plane door opened.
Caesar and Eddie walked in front, still idly looking around. Steve and Thor followed closely behind, escorting Loki off the fighter plane.
"Oh, to be honest, I'm very happy to meet the gods in Norse mythology." Fury looked at Thor, then at Loki, and said lightly: "But I still have to say that the earth does not welcome you. Unless you come in peace."
Loki smiled and said stubbornly: "Sorry, I am your future ruler."
"Shut up!" Thor scolded Loki coldly, and together with Steve, the two of them almost carried Loki down with their hands.
"Where is the Cosmic Cube?" Fury asked Natasha, who was the last person to get off the fighter plane, holding a purple crystal staff.
"Loki didn't bring the Cosmic Cube with him, and Barton didn't follow him," Natasha replied.
Fury said with a gloomy face, "Of course Barton didn't follow him. Just an hour ago, Bucky kidnapped a group of underground scientists belonging to SHIELD, and also sneaked into some branch bases and stole alien meteorite metals such as Qi and Ke."
Natasha looked at Loki's back and said solemnly, "Loki is controlling Barton. Could it be that he wants to use the Cosmic Cube to do something in secret?"
"In short, while keeping Loki under guard, we must find the whereabouts of the Cosmic Cube as soon as possible!"
After Fury finished speaking, he looked at Caesar standing beside him, and said with a rare warm expression on his serious face: "Caesar, I still have to trouble you to stay here for a while, in case something happens that we can't handle."
"Okay, let's find a place to eat. I'm hungry."
Caesar agreed casually. If he left now, he would not be able to see the good show that Loki would perform later.
"Now that you mention it, I'm hungry too." Eddie held his stomach and grinned.
Fury and Natasha were speechless. This was an alien invasion that concerned the safety of the Earth. The only two people who could be so heartless and only think about filling their stomachs were probably Caesar and Eddie, the master and servant.
But there is no way, because Caesar and Eddie are the two most stable high-end combat forces in the Avengers today.
Thor is not reliable for the time being. After all, he has not yet fully joined the alliance, and the enemy is his younger brother Loki. No one knows whether he will be soft-hearted and show mercy.
Helicopter carrier, inside the main cockpit.
After imprisoning Loki in the small black room, Fury led the Avengers to the main cockpit, where one could overlook the spectacular scene on the entire aircraft carrier deck through the windshield. All the equipment in the hall was the most advanced of the time, and the computer screens were replaced by virtual screens with holographic projections.
Even the well-informed Dr. Banner was amazed when he entered the advanced interior of the helicopter carrier. What's more, Steve, a veteran who had been frozen for seventy years, couldn't take his eyes off it.
There were only Caesar and Eddie, the two of them sitting in a corner, concentrating on eating hot food, which was out of place with the agents and workers who were busy working next to them.
"are you ready."
Fury stood on a platform, glanced at the staff in the hall, and spoke in a solemn voice with a dignified face.
"Everyone on the deck has been evacuated!"
"The four major engine drive inspections are complete!"
"System data is all normal, over!"
The elite staff in the hall were operating the projection screens and responding one after another like reporting points.
"Very good, then let's officially take off!" Fury waved his hand.
'Boom boom—'
The aircraft carrier trembled violently. Caesar was prepared and held the plate of food in his hands and floated in the air. Eddie, who was busy eating spaghetti, was caught off guard and jumped forward, with the spaghetti sauce covering half of his face.
"What are you doing? Diving down again? Or going up to the sky?"
Eddie picked up a tissue and wiped his face. When he glanced outside, he saw the aircraft carrier quickly leaving the sea and rising into the sky. His mouth opened in horror, "Damn, it really went to the sky?!"
Chapter 431 A Perfect Creation Combining Power and Knowledge
After rising to an altitude of over 10,000 meters, the dark clouds below spread out, and the helicopter carrier was permanently bathed in the bright sunshine.
Next to the main cockpit hall is a well-equipped research laboratory. An amethyst staff is placed on one of the workbenches. Dr. Banner is following Fury's instructions to track and search for the light particles of the Cosmic Cube.
Except for the assisting staff, all the current members of the Avengers have been transferred to this room. Through the surveillance video here, they can know everything that happens in the aircraft carrier's control hall and the prison room.
At this time, Loki was imprisoned in a prison cell, in a huge glass circular groove in the center of the room. Fury stood outside the closed glass door, looking at Loki through the ten-centimeter-thick bulletproof glass.
Fury's face was grim. He said to Loki in a deep voice, "I advise you not to try to break this glass cage. Otherwise, you will fall down from a height of ten thousand meters along with this cage."
"This cage wasn't made specifically for me, was it?" Loki said with a wicked smile, supporting himself with his hands on the inner wall of the glass.
"Of course, there are some monsters on Earth that are much more ferocious than you." Fury said calmly with a blank expression.
Loki looked around, a look of realization appeared on his face, and he said sarcastically, "I know. You are an angry green monster. You are trying to use a monster born for destruction to save the world. Isn't that a bit naive and ridiculous?"
"You are the most naive and ridiculous person who wants to occupy the earth."
