Chapter 477: The End
The flames were everywhere, the smoke was filled, and a powerful shock wave came from behind them, if it weren't for Ling Xiao standing behind the two of them and grabbing the collars of the two, the two of them would have been washed down long ago.
Even so, the ground under their feet was shaking, and the power of the explosion could be seen, and the bricks and debris above their heads fell from time to time, and if they were not careful, they were likely to be smashed on their heads and bleed.
At this moment, Coulson and Fury only felt an upward force, they didn't do any struggle, just let Ling Xiao grab their collars and jump up, and the next moment, they were already jumping down the mountain.
Standing steadily on the cement road at the bottom of the mountain, Fury and Coulson breathed a sigh of relief, and looked back to see that the originally prosperous mountain villa was engulfed in flames in an instant, and by the time the fire burned out, the mountain had already become a ruin.
The corpses in the villa had already been blown up and flew around, and it was impossible to see who was who, but fortunately, the body fragments belonging to Garrett were found among the corpses, and after confirming the DNA match, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Garrett is finally dead, his entire centipede warrior program has been completely reduced to ashes, the U.S. military and the Mexican military have completely occupied the base, and then began to carry out an inventory, and the imprisoned U.S. military personnel and several arms dealers have also been released.
It was precisely because of their communication in the middle that those American soldiers did not do anything to Coulson, after all, Coulson is still on the wanted list of the U.S. government anyway.
Pearson did not come out to see his son, and what could he say when he saw his son, and after Skee handed over little Mike to his mother, Pearson left alone.
Ling Xiao has no interest in him, all the centipede serums are just developed by Garrett based on previous research, combined with the half-finished desperate virus, the power is really limited, and this person has been paid attention to by too many people, and the value has long been lost!
Ling Xiao is really interested in Garrett's subordinate Rena, but unfortunately this cunning woman doesn't know when she has slipped away, obviously, there is no loyalty between her and Garrett, when Garrett showed signs of crisis, this woman had already seen the situation and fled first!
Sitting on the plane, Ling Xiao looked at Ward, who was being held aside, and asked Coulson in a low voice, "What are you going to do with this person?" ”
Poor Grant Ward, he was captured alive by May, when he accepted Garrett's order to capture Skye, but was waited for by May next to Skye, although Ward was Garrett's cronies, but he had never been injected with centipede serum, once under the fierce battle, he was still taken down by May!
And not only was it taken down, May hated his betrayal, beat him hard, and also discounted his throat bone, and couldn't make a sound for a short time, so he could only sit in the back seat with a blank face, but when he heard the news that Garrett was dead, Ward was slightly relieved.
It was this that made Coulson decide to take him, and Coulson lowered his voice and said to Ling Xiao: "We need to get information about Hydra from him, and now he is the highest-level person about Hydra that we can capture!" ”
"Well, I'll leave the man at your disposal, I was going to send him to Garrett." Ling Xiao glanced at Ward, just in time to see a trace of stubbornness flashing in his eyes, he vaguely felt that things would not end so easily, and Coulson was afraid that he would have to suffer a lot for this decision in the future.
S.H.I.E.L.D. has now disintegrated, and if you want to rebuild S.H.I.E.L.D., it is far from enough to rely on a few people in front of you, and you must absorb more living forces, and so far, S.H.I.E.L.D. agents who have not yet defected will be a good source.
And how to tell if there are any Hydra spies still lurking among them, this point depends on Ward to provide information.
"Stupid, stupid, remnant, very stupid." At Ling Xiao's manor in Tulare, at the bottom of the Central Valley, Coulson pointed at Fury's nose and scolded in a deep voice: "Why do you want me to be resurrected, obviously, I don't think it's a good idea." I warned you that the test subjects would lose their minds. ”
Fury shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said, "Melinda is monitoring the development of the situation, she said that you have no problem, and if something unexpected happens, Mei will also go to Ling for help, and he knows about this matter from the moment you meet." ”
"Maybe it's because Coulson didn't take a lot of doses." Ling Xiao glanced at Coulson and said in a deep voice: "He didn't show the same crazy behavior as Garrett, but he will continue to monitor it in the future, and this time Garrett's incident will definitely have an impact on him." ”
"Hmm." Fury nodded, didn't say anything, in fact, only he knew that Coulson's dose of medicine was no less than Garrett's, or even more, and the reason why he seemed so stable now was because Fury used a lot of Taiyin water during the operation.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Coulson and asked in a deep voice, "Phil, you don't feel anything strange now, do you?" ”
"Now, no." Coulson was slightly stunned, and soon shook his head very calmly, and said, "I don't feel anything uncomfortable now. ”
"That's good!" Fury breathed a sigh of relief, and then said with a heavy face: "Phil, I don't regret the decision I made, and as far as the situation stands, there is nothing wrong with my decision. If you want to build something, you have to have a solid foundation. You know, there are very few people in this world that I can trust, especially in this situation. ”
"Yes, you can count them on one hand." Coulson sighed slightly, he, Melinda, Hill, there were only a few of them now.
As for the Avengers, Natasha is afraid that no one can trust herself, Barton is also suspicious, Stark has always been unaccustomed to S.H.I.E.L.D., Thor is an alien, Hulk is a time bomb, as for Ling Xiao, he doesn't seem to have much ambition, and his attention is only on his own one-third of an acre.
"S.H.I.E.L.D. was originally established for a very pure purpose, with just one word, protection." Fury glanced at the three of them and said in a deep voice: "Sometimes it's to protect a person from himself, and sometimes it's to protect the earth from alien invasion from another universe, this is the general job description." In fact, our will is the same, whether it is one person or the whole human race, they are worth saving. ”
Fury stood up and walked over to Coulson, who had a glint of recognition in his eyes, smiled with satisfaction, and continued, "That truth has always lived in your heart, Coulson. Before the collapse of S.H.I.E.L.D., there were countless departments, but people like you were the core. Now, it's up to you to be the leader. ”
As he spoke, Fury pulled out a small, black boxy box from his body and handed it to Coulson.
"What is this?" Coulson looked at the small black box in his hand and looked at Fury with some curiosity.
"A toolbox." Fury smiled lightly and said, "This will help you rebuild S.H.I.E.L.D." ”
Coulson was shocked, looked at Fury with surprise on his face, and said in disbelief: "You want me to start over and rebuild S.H.I.E.L.D.?" ”
"Start from scratch." Fury smiled slightly bitterly before continuing: "Take your time, do a good job, and don't make any more mistakes like mine!" ”
After saying that, Fury turned to look at Melinda and asked softly, "You're still going to support him, right?" ”
"Of course!" Melinda agreed without the slightest hesitation, and her eyes were also full of determination.
"Ling!" Fury's gaze fell on Ling Xiao, he smiled slightly, and said, "I don't want superfluous, I just hope that when Coulson and them encounter an unsolvable problem, you can help, how about it, no problem, right?" ”
"No problem!" Ling Xiao glanced at Fury deeply, and finally nodded, this old fox only wanted Ling Xiao to contribute, but he refused to let him meddle in the internal affairs of the new S.H.I.E.L.D., some things, he was too good!
"I can only entrust you, Coulson, that from today onwards, you will be the new director of S.H.I.E.L.D." As he spoke, Fury stretched out his right hand, and Coulson hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he held Fury tightly together, and under the witness of Ling Xiao and May, he became the director of the new S.H.I.E.L.D. bureau.
