Marvel: Awakening the Universe.

Chapter 292 Hawke and Wanda's First Meeting (Third Update!!!)

On the surface of the Atlantic Ocean!

As the phantom of the phoenix appeared behind Hawke, and then just as the phoenix slowly spread its wings, at the very moment its cosmos burned to its limit.

Hawke spread his arms, palms facing the sea, and calmly uttered two words.

"Divide the sea!"

"Buzz!"

Unexpected.

With the energy of the microcosm burning to its limit, the rolling waves beneath their feet were instantly frozen in place, and even the splashing spray seemed to be suspended in mid-air, radiating a silvery light.

next moment.

Hawke's hands, like splitting open a durian, faced the sea, as if tearing the sea apart to both sides.

boom--! !

The sea responded with a sound as if it were being torn apart, and in an instant, the entire sea surface boiled.

The sea beneath Hawke's feet is being torn apart.

It's not a description, but a physical tearing apart.

The sea rumbled beneath Hawke's feet, splitting to reveal an open space. At the same time, on both sides of the open space, the sea level rose continuously beneath what appeared to be boiling water.

In the blink of an eye, the sea level on both sides rose by a thousand meters.

but……

One kilometer is just the beginning.

Three thousand meters!
Five thousand meters!
7,000 meters!
until--

The Hydra base on the seabed of the Romansh Trench in the Atlantic Ocean was completely exposed, and the water walls that rose to more than 7,000 meters on both sides finally stopped.

What is the division of the sea?

This is the Fenhai Sea!

Move mountains and divide seas!

Silver Saints can easily lift a mountain, part the ocean at a depth of 10,000 meters, and walk on the seabed.

Seven thousand meters underwater?
Ah.

This may be a sign of Hydra technology, but it is not Hawk's power limit.

Looking from thousands of miles above at this moment.

The water walls, over 7,000 meters high, roared on both sides. Hawke stood suspended in mid-air, and in the abyss over 7,000 meters below him, the Hydra base, situated on the seabed, was completely exposed.

pity.

The more than 7,000-meter-high water walls rising on both sides prevented anyone from spying.

But this does not include the underwater Hydras.

"This……"

"Jesus Christ!"

"It's over."

"We're fucked."

One second they were in the command center, basking in the aftermath of their ordeal and thinking that Hawke could never have come to them. But Hawke was completely dumbfounded when he effortlessly parted the ocean with a single snap of his hands, as if a god had descended to earth.

Especially that Hydra agent who just thought about suicide but didn't in the end.

At that moment, the Hydra agent looked at the scene on the big screen, which was like a god or a demon, exposing their base in its entirety. Countless emotions flashed in his eyes. Then, he lowered his gaze to the gun he was still holding in his hand.

next second.

The hydra no longer hesitated.

Raise the gun.

Swallow.

Pull the trigger.

All in one go.

He was a veteran Hydra agent at the base; he knew what they were doing there, and he knew his fate if Hawke captured him.

and so……

This hydra chose to end its own life, at least avoiding further suffering.

boom!
Gunfire rang out.

Skulls and white and red matter flew everywhere.

Boom!
The Hydra agent who had performed the feat of blowing his own head off slammed his body against the metal floor with a thud, startling all the Hydra agents present.

Some of the Hydra agents, their expressions blank, instinctively turned to look at the headless corpses on the floor.

Some Hydra agents, however, reacted instinctively to the sound of gunfire and raised their sidearms.

Some Hydra members suffered a complete mental breakdown after witnessing Hawke parting the sea.

"Hahaha!"

"fake."

"This is all fake; I must be hallucinating."

"Correct."

"This is an illusion."

"wake up!"

The Hydra agent who had just stepped forward, giving everyone hope and telling them that Hawke couldn't possibly reach the 7,000-meter depth of the ocean, had originally only intended to make a good impression on Strucker at this moment so that he could be promoted. Looking at Hawke parting the ocean on the big screen, and then at the Hydra agent committing suicide, he suddenly broke down and burst into laughter.

The laughter was sharp and shrill.

Eventually, he gradually went mad.

The moment this hydra roared and awoke, it instantly drew its weapon and indiscriminately pulled the trigger on the other hydras around it.

This has completely stirred up a hornet's nest. Just now, several Hydra members who had instinctively drawn their weapons, already on edge, broke down upon seeing this scene and pulled their triggers without hesitation.

All of a sudden!
After Hawke performed a miraculous feat of parting the seas, as if a god had descended to earth, the Hydra agents descended into their final frenzy.

Gunfire erupted throughout the Hydra operations command center.

In the blink of an eye, dozens of Hydra agents were killed on the spot in the entire command center.

They didn't want to face Hawke, so they chose to commit suicide.

Unfortunately, they didn't know that Hawke had already seized control of the life and death of the entire Western Hemisphere.

and so……

They died, and their souls belonged to Hawke.

but--

From a certain perspective, regardless of what kind of torment their souls will suffer in the underworld afterward, their suicide is actually a very lucky way to die.

Because the moment their base was exposed from the environment more than 7,000 meters underwater, an even more terrifying disaster occurred.

Well known.

There is pressure beneath the seawater.

A deep-sea base located 7,000 meters below the surface needs to maintain a standard atmospheric pressure to sustain personnel.

But the air pressure at a depth of 7,000 meters underwater is nearly 7,000 atmospheres.

What would happen if the pressure around the deep-sea base suddenly disappeared in this situation?

The answer is a terrifying consequence.

Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Almost the instant Hawke completed his parting maneuver, the walls, windows, and even the hatches of the Hydra base, located more than 7,000 meters underwater, all designed to withstand the immense external water pressure, exploded like overloaded balloons.

The bulkheads groaned, rivets shot out like bullets, and pipes twisted and tore. The entire base was no longer a refuge; it had become a bomb dismantling itself.

The entire Hydra base began to collapse the moment it was exposed.

but……

The deaths at the Hydra base were horrific, but the Hydra agents inside the base suffered even more brutal fates.

A Hydra agent named Jack, who was fully armed and ready to attack Hawke the moment he entered, suddenly felt an irresistible force pushing him outward from his lungs, intestines, and deep blood.

His eardrums shattered silently.

He felt a sharp pain in his eyes, and instead of tears flowing out, they boiled and bubbled on the surface of his eyeballs.

His chest swelled horribly, and the blood vessels beneath his skin bulged and ruptured like twisted vines…

It wasn't just Jack.

The Hydra agents who had already assembled and were trying to deliver a fatal blow to Hawke who had broken in, the experimental personnel in the base who were rapidly destroying various data, and even the surviving Hydra agents in the command center who had escaped the gunfight.

There were even Hydra agents trying to rush into Wanda's room, intending to capture Wanda and the others.

Their bodily fluids reached a boiling point almost at the very moment the Hydra base exploded.

Well known.

Under normal atmospheric pressure, the body fluids of the human body, such as blood, saliva, and even tears, are in a liquid state. However, under this sudden and powerful pressure difference, their bodies will boil instantly.

The moment the explosion occurred, countless Hydras were horrified to discover that their bodies were beginning to inflate at the speed of a balloon being blown up.

But there was no screaming.

Because by the time they discovered it, they had already reached the end of their lives.

Accompanied by the continuous sounds of human bodies exploding, the command center, laboratories, corridors—wherever they were—were now replaced by countless bloated, mangled limbs.

In an instant.

Hawke sensed that a large influx of souls was entering his underworld.

"Kai!"

"Gather them all and throw them into the Fifth Prison."

"Understood, Master!"

Kay, the blood elf currently imprisoned in the First Prison, knelt on one knee, listening to Hawke's decree.

at this time.

Hawke suddenly raised an eyebrow.

Is Sitrek not among them?
Hawke scanned the souls of the Hydra agents swarming into the underworld, and after finding no Sitor, looked down at the collapsing Hydra base beneath his feet.

next second.

His figure disappeared.

By the time Hawke landed on the seabed, the deep-sea Hydra base, which had been secretly built at Hydra's expense, was already in ruins.

As the Hydra base collapsed with a deafening roar, the seabed also rumbled continuously, and dust swept around like smoke.

Amidst this endless dust, a rose-gold light shimmered.

With a flash of rose gold light, Pietro, surrounded by the Nebula Chains, along with Wanda, Billy, and Tommy, protected by the Andromeda Cloth, rose from the ruins and slowly landed in front of Hawke.

The Nebula Chains rapidly contracted, and the moment they returned to the Andromeda Cloth, they snapped and disintegrated into countless tiny fragments that shot out in all directions.

After the Andromeda Cloth disintegrated, Billy and Tommy reappeared.

Wanda exclaimed and ran over, grabbing Billy and Tommy in her arms once more.

at the same time.

Jean, who was being held in Pietro's arms, seemed to sense Hawke's arrival. She slowly opened her eyes, and when she saw Hawke appear, her eyes lit up. She widened her eyes, jumped out of her uncle Pietro's arms, and rushed into Hawke's arms: "Daddy!"

Hawke instinctively hugged the piano with one arm.

next second.

His gaze met that of Wanda, who was holding Billy and Tommy.
