Marvel: The Imposter Inventor

Chapter 131 The Magic Thief, Miss Crow

The Upper East Side of Manhattan, New York.

Yes, it's still the ruins of Avengers Tower and the Dark Elf Mothership.

It was already dark at this time.

But the area around the ruins was still brightly lit.

S.H.I.E.L.D., the military, and the government have already turned the entire area into a cordon.

Although the bureaucrats at the top are still bickering day and night about how to deal with the alien remains.

However, lessons were learned from the previous Battle of New York.

This did not affect the researchers working day and night to obtain first-hand information as soon as possible.

In fact, a couple of days ago, Luca also stayed here for a while as a researcher, using the Husky Armor.

However, Luca only managed to acquire some Dark Elf equipment before stopping early, showing an attitude that he didn't want to get involved too much.

This led Nick Fury to believe that Luca was very sensible and not greedy, and he even subtly expressed his goodwill to him in private.

Of course, Luca only listened to the old silver coin's verbal goodwill and didn't take it seriously at all.

In short, all three forces are currently working intensively to gain more benefits, while at the same time joining forces to blockade this area.

They even dispatched a large number of helicopters to patrol the airspace, so even those usually arrogant reporters had no chance to get close to the area.

However, it was under such a high degree of martial law.

Several objects, resembling hand grenades, fell silently from the sky without anyone noticing.

Immediately afterwards, a series of extremely faint explosions rang out from various parts of the wreckage of the dark elf warship.

Although the explosion was not very loud, and the cordoned-off area was quite noisy.

However, the shock generated by the tremor still instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the locked-down area.

"The attacker?"

"No way? It must have been an explosion inside the spaceship. I think there was one yesterday too."

The researchers working in administrative positions were somewhat bewildered and at a loss, with some even considering going to investigate the location where the explosion had occurred.

But the soldiers on guard were not so slow; a chorus of alarms immediately blared throughout the entire cordoned-off area.

"Enemy attack! Be on alert!"

However, before these people could take any further action...

Slight tremors immediately resounded from various parts of the spaceship wreckage.

Immediately afterwards, large amounts of black and red smoke began to surge outward from the locations where the tremors occurred.

The red and black smoke had a strong dark elf style at first glance, and everyone immediately thought of a dangerous gas leak.

The expressions of the several people in charge on the spot immediately changed, and they gave urgent orders.

"Everyone! Protect the researchers and evacuate to the designated area!!"

"Be careful! Avoid contact with this smoke! Where are the disease control personnel? Put on your protective suits, control the spread, quick!"

Several orders were issued in quick succession, and the entire blockade zone immediately descended into chaos.

The staff on the perimeter quickly scattered and retreated.

Meanwhile, the researchers who had entered the warship's cabin were also running out under the cover of the soldiers, extremely nervous. They didn't even care about the valuable experimental equipment that they usually valued.

Fortunately, although the amount of these spreading smoke plumes was enormous, their spread was very slow.

And extremely fortunately, there were no workers near any of the smoke leak locations, and no one was contaminated by the smoke until everyone had been evacuated.

Upon seeing this, the heads of various departments breathed a sigh of relief and immediately urged each other on.

"Where are the people from the epidemic prevention department? Go and deal with this smoke!"

However, while they were still relieved that there were no casualties, one person in a group that seemed to be researchers from S.H.I.E.L.D. suddenly broke free from his companion and ran back as if he had sensed something.

Those around her were immediately horrified upon seeing this.

"Simmons! Don't go, it's dangerous!"

"Fitz! Come back!" Seeing the two researchers who had just come out break through the isolation zone and run back in, the others all changed color.

Just, the next moment.

Suddenly, the black and red smoke spread, enveloping the largest section of the mothership wreckage, which was nearly a hundred meters long.

Immediately afterwards, blue lights flickered within the smoke, as if some kind of energy was flowing.

"Look!"

"what is that?!"

Many people began to exclaim in surprise.

As the blue light rapidly spread...

"Crack~"

A crisp popping sound filled the air.

The enormous wreckage of the dark elf spaceship simply vanished into thin air.

At the same time, as the more than 100-meter-long fragment of the spaceship's bridge disappeared, the surrounding air surged violently.

The slowly spreading blackish-red smoke and dust contracted inward with the surging airflow, and then rapidly exploded outward.

The overwhelming black and red smoke and dust instantly enveloped everyone around.

Many people who hadn't yet figured out what was happening were immediately covered in dust and started shouting in panic.

"Ahhh, I'm infected!"

"Ah, my face!"

However, the female researcher who was the first to rush back, known as Simmons, was also covered in black and red soot.

He merely touched his cheek in surprise, rubbed the soot between his fingers a few times, and then turned back to look at his companion with a blank expression.

"Fitz...this looks like just ordinary paint?"

And let's not even mention the bewildered guards and researchers here.

Another abandoned street not far from the wreckage of the dark elf ship.

A strangely shaped, pitch-black 'bird', somewhat resembling a crow, plummeted rapidly from the sky.

Immediately afterward, before the strange bird had even fully landed...

Starting from the belly of the strange bird, a human body dressed in a black robe suddenly appeared out of thin air, as if created from nothingness.

It turns out that the strange black bird was just a man-made black hood. It was only because the strange person wearing the bird-shaped hood was completely invisible before that it looked like a strange bird falling from the sky.

However, before the strange man in black robes wearing a bizarre hood could quickly take a few steps and disappear into the shadows, a voice suddenly rang out from behind him.

"Stop! Don't move!"

"Turn around!"

The voice behind him was steady and powerful, carrying a strong sense of threat.

The strange man in black robes had no choice but to obey and turn around.

Turning around, he saw a man wearing a black sleeveless vest, holding a longbow high, drawing the bowstring taut and aiming at him.

"Ha~ Hawkeye!"

A somewhat muffled female voice came from under the strange bird's headgear.

However, before Hawkeye Clint could ask any more questions, the strange man suddenly threw something out of his hand.

Immediately afterwards, a blue light exploded in the air.

Suddenly, an enormous, pitch-black curtain appeared out of nowhere in front of Clint.

An arrow was shot out, instantly piercing through the curtain in front of him.

But Clint himself was still completely shrouded in black.

After Clint tore the curtain apart and broke free, the figure of the black-robed monster was nowhere to be seen.
