"Chase! Chase him! Get him back!"
Colonel William Stryker didn't know that the mutant student he wanted to capture was already dying, but the soldiers under his command saw that after hearing the threat from their commander, Storm had no choice but to let the prisoner go and then escape alone.
At this time, people from SHIELD also followed, as if they wanted to see if there was any bargain to be picked up.
"Reporting to the commander, the prisoner was hit in the vitals and lost too much blood. He may lose vital signs at any time."
This is still a conservative statement. In fact, it is incredible that this guy could still hold on and not take his last breath. It seems like a piece of his neck was torn off by something. If it were a normal person, his body would have been cold by now.
This was what Colonel William Stryker and Coulson saw when they came over.
"Do we need to call an ambulance?" Seeing that his superior looked unhappy, the soldier asked tentatively.
Then I heard Colonel Stryker snort coldly, "Take him away directly!"
Now that the main goal has been achieved, what remains is to squeeze out the remaining value of this mutant student. It is most important to quickly drain his blood as material for future scientific research before he is completely dead. This guy's body can then be used as political capital to gain greater benefits for him in this matter, and it can also strike at those mutants hiding in the dark. It can be said that he kills two birds with one stone!
There is also the mutant school where Professor X is hiding. This time, Storm and Cyclops openly resisted law enforcement and tried to take away the murderer, which was bound to touch the sensitive nerves of some people. Even if they gave up in the end and no casualties were caused in the process, the initiative was in his hands. If he didn't take advantage of the situation, wouldn't he be unworthy of the handle that the other party had delivered to his door!
Even in just a few seconds, Colonel Stryker had already figured out how to use the power of public opinion to achieve his goal.
As a soldier with such rich experience in political tactics, it is really a waste of his talent to stay in the army.
As for Colonel Stryker's attempt to take the mutant student away, Coulson did not make any statement. He had originally promised not to interfere in this matter. In addition, he had spoken well of Storm and Cyclops, but those two guys did that kind of thing, which made him feel guilty. Naturally, he could not do anything.
Of course, the most important reason is still not enough profit. There are actually research projects on mutant genes within SHIELD, but the investment is not much, and it is more for understanding. They are not as crazy and hostile as Colonel Stryker, who wishes all mutants to die.
So there is no need to fight for it. If it were something like the wreckage of a crashed alien spacecraft, you see, even if Colonel Stryker brought out all the forces behind him, Coulson would not step back today. These things must be managed by S.H.I.E.L.D.!
And at this critical juncture, an unexpected change occurred.
A guy wearing a "Faceless Man" mask suddenly fell from the sky, and knocked away the fully armed soldiers around him in a few moves, then took advantage of the gap to directly snatch the "corpse" of the mutant student. No one who stood in his way could stop him even for a second, and because he was surrounded by his own people, those soldiers with weapons in hand had no way to aim and shoot, and could only watch him break through the siege.
"Stop him! Open fire! Don't be afraid of accidental injuries, just shoot!"
Colonel Stryker yelled in rage, snatched the submachine gun from the soldier next to him and started shooting in that direction. With his personality, how could he tolerate someone jumping out to snatch the fruits of his victory at this time? Didn't he see that even a powerful agency like SHIELD could only stay aside honestly? No matter who this person is, he is definitely dead, absolutely!
Without the cover of the surrounding soldiers, the masked man who was exposed to the field of vision immediately became the target of everyone's concentrated fire. It seemed that he and the mutant students he had robbed would be beaten into a hornet's nest in the next second. But at this moment, Coulson, who had watched another good show, suddenly changed his expression. After a slight struggle, he suddenly led his men to block these American soldiers.
"Coulson! What are you doing? Take your men and get out of here! Otherwise, if the prisoner escapes, you will be responsible!" Everything was really going wrong. Colonel Stryker was so angry that he wanted to shoot Coulson in the head, but the only trace of rationality left prevented him from doing so. He could only be furious.
"What are you talking about, Colonel Stryker? We at SHIELD are just trying to help with the pursuit."
"Stand in front of my people and help chase them?" Colonel Stryker was so angry that he almost laughed.
"Sorry, my people parked the car over there. It's just a misunderstanding." Coulson stayed where he was and explained with a smile while pointing at the car over there, but he had no intention of leaving.
"Okay, even if that's the case, get out of my way right now, or you'll say that bullets have no eyes!" Colonel Stryker said gritting his teeth.
"OK, OK! Hurry up and get in the car, don't let the prisoner run away!"
Coulson immediately called out and ran over with the agents without any delay.
When I looked again, I didn't know where the masked guy had disappeared to.
"Very good, Agent Coulson, I will report everything that happened today truthfully. You, SHIELD, better come up with a satisfactory explanation, otherwise I will never let it go!"
"That's not something I can worry about. The director will naturally handle it himself, so Colonel Stryker doesn't have to worry about it."
After uttering the harsh words, Colonel Stryker glared and yelled, "What are you all standing there for! Immediately seal all the entrances and exits nearby, and search centimeter by centimeter. I don't believe that this guy who hides his head and shows his tail can disappear with a corpse!"
"Yes, sir!"
Colonel Stryker left angrily with his men. It seemed that he was ready to fight SHIELD to the end. After all, he was in the right and had the upper hand in this matter.
Coulson's smile gradually disappeared, and then he touched his neck with his right hand, and suddenly a pocket-sized snail the size of a fingernail appeared in his palm.
He had no idea when this thing was put on him. Did it mean that the other party could kill him without anyone noticing? Just thinking about it gave him chills!
"Colonel Stryker has already led his men to chase after them. I can only help you buy a little time. Otherwise, I won't be able to explain it later." Coulson tried to communicate with it through the snail in his mind.
Then the voice appeared in his head again.
"enough."
