The Witcher: The Journey to Transcendence from Marvel...

Chapter 549

Carol Danvers, the renowned and feared Captain Marvel, has returned to Earth without anyone noticing.

When she appeared before Mei and the others, she seemed to radiate light, exuding a powerful and confident aura that inspired awe in everyone.

"Did you contact me?"

Carroll's gaze was as sharp as a hawk's as he looked directly at May and asked in a steady and powerful voice.

Without any pleasantries or small talk, Mei handed over the pager directly, her face serious as if shrouded in frost, and said, "We need your help."

She then told Carroll everything about Coulson, from his tragic death to the bits and pieces of information they had about Wes.

"What a pity." Carol frowned slightly, a hint of regret flashing in her bright eyes.

She clearly remembered Coulson, the S.H.I.E.L.D. agent who was serious and responsible in his work and always upheld the bottom line of justice: "He was a very good person."

When Carol learned that the enemy this time was Wes, her eyes instantly turned as cold as an ice cellar, as if they could freeze the surrounding air.

If Wes hadn't been behind this and interfered, Thanos wouldn't have been able to collect the Infinity Stones so quickly, nor would he have snapped his fingers in a way that plunged the entire universe into an abyss of endless despair, causing half of all life in the universe to turn to dust without warning.

He's an extremely dangerous guy.

Carroll silently assessed Wes in his mind.

To recklessly place the entire universe in such a massive and terrifying crisis simply to satisfy one's own selfish desires is utterly heinous and must not be allowed to continue to roam free.

As for whether she had enough strength to fight Wes, Carroll was always absolutely confident in herself.

She possesses unimaginable strength, lightning speed, astonishing endurance, and extraordinary ability to manipulate powerful energy.

In the vast universe, she has experienced countless thrilling battles, encountering all kinds of vicious and powerful enemies.

She firmly believed that with her skills and rich combat experience, she would be able to defeat Wes, seek justice for Coulson, and bring due justice to those innocent lives lost because of Thanos' snap.

"Tell me more about Wes, and I'll help you."

Carol's tone was firm and powerful, and her eyes revealed an unwavering determination that she was ready to fight at any moment.

Mei nodded slightly, a glimmer of hope rising in her heart.

With Captain Marvel joining the fray, their chances of defeating Wes have undoubtedly increased significantly.

So she began to tell Carroll everything she knew about Wes, including his abilities and recent actions, without reservation and in great detail.

The situation in Seattle, which was seeking independence, was like a raging fire that was burning ever brighter, and the situation was becoming increasingly tense and intense.

Spencer, as a key representative of the awakened, frequently appeared on television screens, constantly stirring up and agitating the public's emotions with his highly infectious and inflammatory rhetoric, making people increasingly excited and uneasy.

Originally, the Awakened Ones and the US government did reach a series of agreements, with Coulson serving as a key link and coordinator.

However, all of this was rendered useless with Coulson's sacrifice.

The already delicate relationship between the two sides has once again fallen into a tense standoff, with the air thick with the smell of gunpowder ready to explode.

On July 8th, a significant day, which is the anniversary of the discovery of the first Awakened One.

Seattle made an extremely bold decision—to declare independence.

This news was like a bombshell; as soon as it was released, the entire city instantly erupted into a frenzy, like boiling water.

On the streets, people cheered excitedly, their faces beaming with barely suppressed excitement and joy.

The sound of cannons boomed continuously, the enormous noise echoing over the city for a long time, as if announcing to the world the arrival of a new era.

Colorful ribbons fluttered down from the tops of skyscrapers, dancing lightly in the air like snowflakes, adding an extra strong festive atmosphere to the city and immersing the entire city in a sea of ​​joy.

People gathered in the square, singing and dancing with abandon, celebrating this historic moment in their own way.

Some people held up signs with eye-catching slogans such as "Long live independence" and "Freedom for the awakened" and shouted slogans, expressing their beautiful vision and longing for a free and independent life in the future.

Meanwhile, others sat together, sharing delicious food and drinks, their faces beaming with happiness, sharing the hard-won joy that had been earned through hardship.

Weiss stood by the window, his eyes as cold and sharp as an eagle's, staring straight at the bustling, lively crowd outside.

After Seattle declared independence, the scene of the people celebrating was vividly displayed before his eyes.

Something's not right.

Wes pondered to himself, a hint of doubt and wariness flickering in his eyes.

He considered himself to know Spencer fairly well, judging from Spencer's personality traits and consistent style of doing things.

Spencer was by no means such a reckless and impulsive person.

Seattle's declaration of independence is undoubtedly a blatant challenge to the authority of the US government, which will inevitably provoke its wrath.

Once the US government takes action, it will inevitably be followed by brutal and ruthless repression, with unimaginable consequences.

In Weiss's view, the whole incident happened far too hastily.

Given Spencer's intelligence and prudence, it's impossible that he didn't consider these extremely serious consequences. Yet, he still led the Awakened without hesitation to make the decision to declare independence.

There must be some hidden story behind this, or it may be driven by some powerful force behind the scenes.

"Could someone be manipulating all of this behind the scenes?"

Wes originally just came to watch the fun.

After all, the birth of the Awakened is inextricably linked to him, and this so-called independence farce may just be a show to watch in his eyes.

However, Wess keenly realized that things were far more complicated than he had initially thought.

Spencer's unusual behavior, and Seattle's hasty declaration of independence, must have concealed a huge conspiracy.
