Silence occupied most of the time. Computers and small construction machinery were transported in. All personnel had to wear chemical protective suits. After several disinfection, they could enter and exit the research site. Even the equipment had to be covered with a layer of plastic film. Colson and Salomon stood behind the glass of the temporary command post and looked at the busy crowd below, always checking the data reported by the staff. Agent Colson found that these processes were actually standard procedures for dealing with biochemical threats, but with the high technology of the Immortal City, these processes were a little more complicated. Hunter swallowed his saliva and felt that he had come to the wrong place - neither he nor Barbara had protective suits. If the boulder was really a biochemical threat, then those who might have directly contacted the boulder might be infected. He gestured to the top to signal Agent Colson to be prepared for the worst situation.

"What about the symptoms of infection?" Colson asked.

"It will be eaten, eaten from the inside out, and the infected person will suffer great pain." Salomon said. "Every time the boulder is opened, it will increase the risk of infection. This is why we need to be prepared for protection. As for the worse, the source of infection has actually arrived at the base but we know nothing."

"You should tell me about this earlier, Salomon! May, prepare to close the base!"

"If the source of infection can run out so easily... don't be nervous, we can deal with it even if the source of infection comes out." The secret mage did not continue to say. If the hive really ran out, then the conservative Hydra would not have to find ways to hold a sacrifice ceremony. The reason why this huge rock fell into the hands of SHIELD was because Alexander Pierce promised the conservatives to use SHIELD's manpower and material resources to study this thing and find a way to pull the God of Hydra out of it. However, before he could fulfill his promise, SHIELD and Hydra were destroyed together, and only those remnants were left to do nothing.

He put on his helmet again and closed his expression.

"The bomb is ready, my lord." Tita's voice rang in the communication channel.

This work lasted for four full days.

On the fourth day, Leopold Fitz, the science director of SHIELD, appeared at the research site late. "It is because you always look after things that don't exist that I locked the broken stone and let anyone in." Before Fitz could express his thoughts, the kind-hearted Mike taught him a lesson, "I like you and don't give up on hope, but you are a scientist..."

"Sorry, sorry, Mike." Fitz tried to squeeze past Mike in a dirt, looking like a kitten that was picked up by a female cat. "I have clues, I have clues... who are they?" He pointed to the researchers passing by in the corridor, wearing chemical defense, "Why is Lincoln here? Is something wrong with the base?"

"Lincoln comes here to help study the stone. Fitz, this is not the first time. You are a scientist, not a folklorist." Mike sighed, "Also, you came back at a bad time. Now the base is checking for infectious diseases."

"Is it..."

"Yes, it's still related to that stone. Colson ordered the base to be blocked. You don't know that in order to let you in, Melinda and Colson had another fight. They didn't have a good relationship recently." Mike touched his beard. "We have some reinforcements, but I don't know much about the person leading the way, but Colson looks like he's an old friend."

"What does he look like? Or, how tall is he?" Fez felt his heart beating. He had thought about contacting that person, but because the magic was as unreliable as the clues he was following, he put that option to the end. "I can't waste my time anymore, Mike." He said, "I have to tell them the clues I got!"

"I considered every possibility!" Fitz broke into the command room before he could take off his dirty suit.

"Besides being trapped in a boulder, or being reduced to a microscopic level..."

"Colson! Colson! I think I'm right this time!" Fitz shouted, "She's not here! I guess that boulder is a black hole!"

"Do you have evidence?" Colson stopped Fitz from rushing to the Secret Mage. After four days of work, he watched the figure in armor become colder and colder. He did not tickle, sleep, or eat, as if he was standing in the command room. When the others were exhausted, he found Salomon motionless as the scientists below inspected the boulder. If it weren't for the slight "tick" sound from the communication system, Colson suspected that he wouldn't even need to breathe.

Colson has seen this state of calm to the extreme, and this situation often happens to some extremely cold-blooded agents. Salomon gives him a very dangerous feeling at this moment.

This is indeed the case.

Salomon did not tell Agent Colson that the reason he allowed the Sky Carrier to stand by at high altitude was not for the convenience of returning. The Punishment Sky Carrier was already loaded with a ground-boring nuclear bomb equipped with a large-equivalent nuclear warhead. If things develop to the worst point, Tita, who stayed on the Sky Carrier, would drop the nuclear bomb without hesitation and completely erase the existence of the hive. Those agents of SHIELD, the Immortal City armed forces and scientists who were not able to evacuate and were infected will be regarded as necessary sacrifices, and even Salomon himself will be baptized by the nuclear bomb.

Tita believed that her monarch would not die in the nuclear explosion, and she was full of confidence in this. Therefore, when Salomon gave the order, she agreed readily, and the response speed even surprised Salomon. After repeatedly confirming that Tita did not have any dangerous tendencies, he asked Stephanie to arrange materials to install the remaining ground-boring bombs that were preparing to bomb Pim Technology at that time on the assault transport boat.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! "No, but I..." Fitz was speechless. He has proposed many theories, but without exception, they lack evidence support. "Then why..."

"We now suspect that there are ancient bacteria in the boulders, so..." As this sentence was said, Agent Colson couldn't help but pause. He couldn't remember why he invited Salomon to help. It seemed that his brain had turned blank before the video call. He couldn't help but turn his gaze to Salomon, wanting the secret wizard to give an explanation.

At this moment, the dark steel statue raised its head. "You have speculated this step without any evidence. Your brain is extremely important for human development. Leopold Fitz." Salomon's voice was processed by the loudspeaker and brought some unnatural. "Janema Simmons is indeed alive, I swear by my real name."

This sentence is like a surprise Christmas gift for Fitz.

"But it's just now," Salomon said, "She won't live long if we don't solve the problem as soon as possible."

"What do you know?" Agent Colson let go of Fitz, he needed to recall what was wrong with his memory. Fitz's inquiry, the bright red eyepiece on the Knight's helmet did not look at him.

"This huge stone is not the only one. This is not the creation of human beings, nor is it the creation of the alien race." Salomon's tone was not turbulent, "We need to destroy the things in this stone."

"What about Jenma?" Fitz grabbed Salomon's arm armor nervously. He tried so hard that the gorgeous gold-plated decoration on the arm armor cut his fingers. He felt the energy pipeline under the steel armor jump gently like blood vessels, as if the armor was a living steel creature. This monster needed blood and needed to kill, which was the only idea in his mind except to solve Jenma.

"We can only try our best." Finally, the pair of blood-red eyepieces looked at him condescendingly. Fitz stood hard, trying not to let his knees fall to the ground. "If she is infected, we can only enforce the standard regulations."

"What...standard regulations?" Fitz asked in a trembling voice.

"destroy."
