From American comics to becoming the mastermind behind the scenes

"Can one become an immortal by killing people in a specific order and in a particular way?"

Nick Fury muttered to himself.

Ayou immediately raised his head warily: "She's not killing people, she's helping them achieve immortality. Becoming an immortal isn't that easy. The Five Hells Immortal Ascension Method is a good method, but it requires meeting certain prerequisites to use."

"Don't get me wrong, I don't want to become an immortal," Nick Fury said with a laugh, trying to defend himself. "So, how do we stop her?"

"She chose Amelia as her ascension site; she must have some ulterior motive, but I haven't figured it out yet." Ayou frowned. "He needs a safe place to store his physical body. Where is the Hand's headquarters located when Zhao Guizhen cooperated with them?"

"exist……"

Hell's Kitchen, the headquarters of the Hand.

When they were capturing Zhao Guizhen, the Defenders and S.H.I.E.L.D. worked together to wipe out the Hand, and now the Hand's headquarters in Hell's Kitchen is empty.

All that remained was the mess left behind during the initial arrest operation.

"It's empty now. We searched this house many times after the raid but didn't find anything of value," Nick Fury said, clearly not believing that anything could be found here.

"Were there a lot of flies here before?" Constantine asked, a cigarette dangling from his lips.

The fly is one of the symbols of Beelzebub, one of the seven rulers of Hell, representing gluttony and impurity.

“We didn’t have any before,” Nick Fury frowned, clearly having also noticed the anomaly. “We haven’t even found any bodies here, so it seems Zhao Guizhen’s zombie-making place isn’t here.”

Ah You frowned and walked slowly forward. A large number of flies gathered on the same brick surface. He waved his hand to scatter the flies on the floor.

He tapped the floor: "It's hollow underneath!"

"How is that possible? We've searched so many times! How could there still be a hidden room?"

Constantine smiled. "Because you hired the wrong person."

Nick Fury raised an eyebrow but didn't say anything more. He and Ayou worked together to lift up the floorboards.

However, in the dark room, which was about the size of a coffin, lay a short-haired woman dressed in a thin, light gauze garment.

The woman's figure and appearance are not outstanding in a crowd; they are considered above average.

Close your eyes tightly and place your palms upward.

A patch of blood was visible through his abdomen.

A strange, inexplicable feeling suddenly filled the air.

"She's Shealy?" Nick Fury asked, somewhat incredulous.

The fact that Ah-you, who can easily kill zombies, is so nervous, and that the Divine Spear Bureau is sending reinforcements as if facing a formidable enemy, indicates that he is about to become an immortal being, a transcendent being beyond human comprehension.

Is she just a woman who can't take care of herself?

"Don't be fooled by her appearance," Ayou said emphatically.

Nick Fury said, "So what should we do? Just kill her here?"

"No, on the contrary, you should heal her."

Nick Fury, puzzled, asked, "Why? Can't we just kill her?"

"You two," Constantine suddenly approached, looking up at the ceiling, "I think you've missed something."

The two looked up in confusion and saw a corpse hanging upside down from the ceiling, its eyes wide open and its face distorted.

His tongue was not visible in his open mouth, and countless flies swarmed in and out of it.

"Damn it!" Nick Fury cursed immediately, recalling Ah You's previous instructions that only one person was missing.

Xie Yali is just one tongue-pulling prison away from ascending to heaven!

Sure enough, a sudden change occurred the next second, with countless "dust particles" floating in the air.

"What is this?"

Before Nick Fury could react, he suddenly saw the girl who had been lying in the dark room now sitting on a broken altar.

Barefoot, she swung her fair legs, her smile playful and cute, yet it sent chills down one's spine.

"Fuck!" Nick Fury immediately drew his gun. As the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. and one of the few Level 10 agents, Nick Fury had extremely high combat skills.

Without the slightest hesitation, he drew his gun and emptied the magazine.

The bullets flew out, leaving ripples in the air as if they had fallen into water.

The speed gradually decreased, and finally it stopped as if it had been handed over to Xie Yali.

"I've been waiting for you," Xie Yali smiled, looking at Ayou. The bullet in her hand melted and evaporated like snow, turning into a stream of molten copper.

Nick Fury stared in horror; he was no stranger to such terrifying abilities.

Captain Marvel once rammed and sank the Chris aliens' space fleet with just one head; the scene was far more spectacular than this.

However, what Xie Yali was exhibiting was something Nick Fury couldn't understand.

"Your choice of America as your ascension site is indeed for a purpose," Ayou said in a deep voice.

Xie Yali jumped down from the altar, barefoot like a lively little deer, and hopped over to Ayou: "Yes, I came to find you."

"Your destiny has deficiencies in the five elements. Although you have completed the Five Prisons Ascension Method, you still need the final completion." Ayou's face was ashen. "Your goal is the Five Elements Compass! You need to use it to complete the final step."

Xie Yali, with her hands behind her back, said, "Help me."

"I won't help."

As Ah-you spoke, his hands involuntarily pulled out the "Five Elements Compass," and the mechanism of the Five Elements Compass turned, causing the petals to open again.

This time, however, he did not switch attributes as Ah You had done when he killed the zombies before.

The symbols representing the five elements—water, wood, earth, metal, and fire—lighted up simultaneously.

Ah You gritted his teeth, but his body gradually knelt down in front of Xie Yali, raising his hands high to lift the "Five Elements Compass".

Seeing this, Nick Fury stepped forward and was about to knock Shealy aside.

Xie Yali turned slightly to the side and looked at Nick Fury.

Those pupils, which looked no different from those of an ordinary person, suddenly turned and revealed another pupil.

Nick Fury froze on the spot, his body stiffening.

"Kneel down," Xie Yali said coldly.

"thump"

Nick Fury knelt down on the ground, so hard that his knees were bruised and even suffered minor fractures.

"Hmm," Nick Fury tried to prop himself up with his hands, but he couldn't muster any strength when his hands touched the ground.

Finally, Xie Yali turned her gaze to Constantine and smiled, "Do you have anything to say?"

Constantine raised his hands from the bottom of his heart: "I surrender."

Xie Yali turned away and stopped looking at her. She placed her hand on the Five Elements Compass, and the metal cylinder immediately pierced her skin, causing the entire space to change instantly.

Dense moisture, sprawling vines, muddy earth, dazzling gold, and scorching flames.

It disappeared little by little.

Ultimately, the Five Elements Compass merged into Xie Yali's palm.

"Thank you." Xie Yali smiled, her hands behind her back. "Helping someone achieve immortality is a great deed, and I will never forget you."

Nick Fury struggled to lift his head, only to see Xie Yali's figure fade away like mist.
