Marvel: The Imposter Inventor

Chapter 181 New York is about to descend into chaos again (Fifth update)
The giant gray rhinoceros was thrown into the air by Hulk.

Even though the ceiling in this hall was already very high, the Rhino still smashed through the glass of the ceiling and was thrown somewhere by the Hulk.

"Hulk—"

Hulk, who had easily defeated his opponent, angrily pounded his chest, seemingly not satisfied with such an opponent.

However, Hulk doesn't actually need to worry about not having enough opponents right now.

Because of the path he created by smashing through the walls, thanks to the rhinoceros's generosity.

More interdimensional invaders who had previously been captured by the Avengers or S.H.I.E.L.D. rushed out one after another.

Among them was a refined man dressed in a suit, his body emitting black and white smoke, his skin looking as if it had lost its color, like a negative.

There were also ugly monsters that looked like human toads, lying on the ground and wildly flicking their long tongues.

There were even terrifying monsters whose bodies seemed to be pieced together from dark green mud, covered with weeds and vines, making it difficult for them to even maintain a human form.

Of course, there are many more parallel world villains who look no different from ordinary people, but actually possess various special skills or superpowers.

These people are all defeated opponents to the current Avengers, and some are even just weaklings captured by ordinary S.H.I.E.L.D. agents.

However, all the previous arrests were made by taking them down one by one.

When all these people gathered together, Steve and his companions looked extremely grim.

At this time...
A gust of wind swept by, and countless grains of sand quickly gathered in front of everyone to form a human face.

The face roared angrily at the Avengers present.

"You!! You all have to die!!"

Amidst the roar, sandstorms raged, and the fine sand stung everyone's cheeks.

However, none of Steve and the others paid any attention to this insignificant pain.

Because they understand this now.

Whether they are alive or dead today is still unknown.

But now New York is about to descend into chaos again!

Of course, whether things are chaotic in New York or not is actually not important to Hydra.

The reason Hydra didn't send many of its own people to attack the Avengers at that branch base, but instead chose to release the extraterrestrial invaders held by S.H.I.E.L.D., was to create chaos and hold Steve and his team back.

If these alien invaders can kill the Avengers, that would be best. If they can't, at least they should prevent these people from leaving New York and interfering with their plans.

For Pierce and others, Washington was their top priority.

After Pierce issued the activation order to all Hydra agents lurking within S.H.I.E.L.D.

Countless lurking Hydra agents turned their guns on their former colleagues and comrades.

One second these people were discussing where to have fun after get off work, the next second, the smiles on their companions' faces turned into bullets aimed at their foreheads.

A simple "Hi~ Hi Claw!" instantly turned countless people against their cause and brought even more to their deaths.

In just over ten minutes, Hydra had completely taken control of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Tri-Wing Tower.

Apart from the few high-ranking agents who managed to escape through their own abilities, the remaining genuine S.H.I.E.L.D. members were either killed or captured, completely powerless to resist. Meanwhile, on the ground floor of the Tri-Wing Tower...

As the leader of the S.H.I.E.L.D. faction, Alexander Pierce stood respectfully to the side, as if he were welcoming someone.

However, Brock Rumlow, who was behind him and had no idea what the group of people were doing there, was quietly discussing something with the Sitwell agent next to him who looked somewhat like a certain 'professor'.

"Pfft, pfft, do you know who we're waiting for? Didn't we already take down S.H.I.E.L.D.?"

Although he was asking a question, Crossbones' expression remained unchanged. He stood ramrod straight with his hands behind his back, and even when he spoke, he only moved the corners of his mouth slightly, and his voice was only audible to the agent Sitwell beside him.

Upon hearing Crossbones's words, Sitwell glanced at him and replied softly, his expression unchanged.

"I don't know, but recently Secretary Pierce seems to be getting very close to those people from the Return movement."

Crossbones raised an eyebrow slightly upon hearing this.

"The Return Faction? Those old fogies? We've taken over S.H.I.E.L.D. and are about to launch Project Insight. Why would the Secretary General agree to let them come and steal the fruits of our labor?"

Sitwell could only wear a helpless expression upon hearing this, though he too was somewhat dissatisfied with the leader's behavior.

With the Hydra Empire about to be established, he, as a meritorious official, might even be promoted to an imperial minister or something. But suddenly he's going to be ridden on by the returnists. Does that mean his wonderful life that he's finally got is going to fall apart?
Of course, since Crossbones didn't turn his head at all, he had no idea what expression Agent Sitwell made, let alone what he was thinking.

However, he did not elaborate on this topic and instead brought up another issue.

"By the way, isn't Captain America on our side? Everyone else is activated this time, so why is Captain America left in New York, hanging out with those Avengers?"

"I don't know? Maybe the captain has some solo infiltration mission? Like leading some Avengers to their deaths or something?"

"That captain's job must be really tough!"

"Who says it isn't?"

Okay, although there were all sorts of rumors circulating within Hydra before, such as 'Loki disguised as Captain America,' 'Captain America cloned by other Hydra divisions,' and even unreliable speculations like 'Captain America from a parallel universe.'

But as the two Crossbones who personally experienced the 'elevator incident', they have always firmly believed that Steve Rogers is their great 'Hydra Captain'.

'Do you think we don't know whether this captain is genuine or not?'

Even many of the "Captain's fans" within Hydra were gradually developed from these few people who were eyewitnesses to the "elevator incident".

Since the higher-ups didn't stop them, it further proves that their guess was correct.

As for why they chose to keep it a secret? It must have been out of necessity to protect an important spy like Steve.

Sometimes even Crossbones felt that Pierce was too old and that it was time for the real Hydra captain to lead them.

Well, regardless of what's going on between the two of them, they're standing up for the great Hydra captain in their hearts.

Just as they were talking, the elevator doors opened again.

Alexander Pierce, who was already respectful, now displayed an even greater degree of humility in his respectful demeanor.

At this moment, the Crossbones group seemed to understand why Pierce was behaving this way.

The other people in the elevator are not important.

Because the leader was actually a bizarre creature with an octopus face.

More importantly, this octopus face bears a striking resemblance to their Hydra symbol, about seven or eight points!
