It has been more than half a month since the last incident at SHIELD.
Under the iron fist of Nick Fury, all threats within SHIELD have been eliminated. Normal operations have been restored.
For the Hydra members who did not want to stay and chose to leave, they also recorded their personal information in detail.
Nick Fury was careful and temporarily set up an intelligence department to continuously track the actions of these people and investigate their interpersonal relationships.
This newly established intelligence department did not have the previous Hydra undercover, and Nick Fury also went through a strict screening.
Although their internal problems have been solved, the behemoth Hydra is still dormant underground.
Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle. Nick Fury has also learned a lesson. For someone like him, he will never allow himself to make the same mistake again.
And Mark's Avengers is still expanding. Relying on Natasha's relationship, he poached Hawkeye Barton, who originally worked at SHIELD.
As for Crossbones, after being influenced by Mark, he finally chose to join.
However, many factors here are also related to Captain America. It is estimated that this guy still has the belief of finding a way to beat Captain America.
Mark knew this guy's idea, and he also had some bad taste in his heart. He generously gave Crossbones a bottle of super gene evolution agent and a set of good equipment.
Although part of the reason is to see the two continue to fight, more factors still need to consider improving the overall strength, and this can also play a role in winning people's hearts.
Therefore, including Barton and Thor, Mark also gave them the same treatment as others.
But in this way, Mark's original contribution points are completely zeroed, and it can be said that it is a long way to go to unlock the next stage of the exchange mall.
"Alas, there are no tasks to do recently." Mark looked at the contribution points of only a few hundred points left, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Recently, except for some side quests to fight criminal organizations, there have been no main quests with high contribution values.
[Hint: The host has obtained a new main task. Defeat Loki and the Chitauri army led by him, and you will be rewarded with 100,000 contribution points! ]
"It's just when I want to sleep that someone sends me a pillow. It's just in time!" Mark was delighted, and felt that the system really understood his situation completely.
Loki is not a simple guy. Even if he didn't meet Thanos, he would still come back.
At the same time, in the underground base of SHIELD, the energy of Tesseract began to become abnormal.
Nick Fury got the news and came to the scene with Agent Coulson and the doctor, and told Mark and the others the news.
"Really? Great, we'll be there soon!" Mark on the phone was excited, but Nick Fury couldn't help it.
He couldn't help cursing in his heart. After so long of getting along, he always felt that Mark was a guy who was afraid of chaos in the world.
The energy of Tesseract has remained stable for so many years, and nothing has ever happened.
This abnormal situation happened this time, which may not be a good thing. I don't know why Mark is so happy?
"Director, we are here!" Coulson opened the door made of quick-cast high-strength alloy in front of him.
Because it is the place where Tesseract is stored, it is also the most confidential location of SHIELD. The surrounding iron walls cannot be penetrated even by intercontinental missiles.
In the entire SHIELD, few people have the right to enter. Even Coulson himself only got the authorization from Nick Fury after the last incident.
"Well, let's go in and take a look!" Nick Fury nodded and walked in first.
Dr. Eric was holding a mobile computer in his hand and was explaining the current situation anxiously.
"Director, according to our monitoring, this time the Tesseract has produced a strong fluctuation, which is absolutely unprecedented."
"Our technicians have also found that it seems to be condensing an unknown powerful energy, and even the surrounding magnetic field has been affected."
"If it continues like this, the Tesseract may explode directly, and the destructive force generated can instantly annihilate all the surrounding matter."
The doctor's breathing became heavy. If he couldn't find a way to stop the expansion of energy in the Tesseract, it would definitely be an unprecedented disaster.
But they didn't have this way, and even the research on the Tesseract was still at an early stage.
It can even be said that they have not been able to grasp even the tip of the iceberg of this thing.
"Let's wait for them to come first. Now you go and evacuate the others temporarily. Coulson and I, and the doctor, you stay here!" Nick Fury ordered without hesitation.
The rest of the SHIELD members received the order and hurriedly took action.
In this situation, no one dared to be careless. An explosion could happen here at any time!
As for Mark, after receiving the news, he rushed to SHIELD with all the members of the Avengers.
After meeting with Nick Fury, Dr. Eric also told them the current situation, his face was pale.
Mark still acted calm and comforted the panicked doctor: "Don't worry, there will be no problem for the time being!"
At this time, Tony and Banner were also observing the Tesseract data on the computer nearby.
But from their cognition, the current situation of the Tesseract is indeed the same as what Dr. Eric, who is in charge of management, said, and there is a risk of explosion at any time.
"Mark, I think he is right. Let's evacuate temporarily. This thing should be activated from the other side of time and space." Tony said solemnly.
"It doesn't matter. Don't panic for now. The explosion will not come so quickly. We have enough time." Mark is still very confident.
He naturally knows that the Tesseract itself will not cause the explosion, but the irregular energy caused by the fusion portal.
This is very dangerous. If that thing really explodes, I'm afraid the entire underground base will be completely destroyed.
But now, no matter what, he has to meet Loki. He has to give him a little shock. He is looking forward to Loki's expression at that time.
If the portal still has an irregular reaction, Captain America can use the Infinity Shield he gave him to absorb the energy.
Tony and Banner wanted to say something, but seeing Mark's confident expression, they still chose to trust.
Just like that, all of them stood in front of the Tesseract, quietly waiting for Loki to appear.
