A Marine Admiral in the Marvel Universe

"Alright, it's getting late, everyone go and get some rest," Nick Fury said, waving his hand with a slight headache.

Dr. Banner ignored Nick Fury's words and returned to his workshop. He still had some things to do. Loki's scepter was very interesting. The energy fluctuations it emitted were almost identical to those of the Tesseract. Perhaps he could find some information from it.

Silent all night.

The next day, Cao Gui finished washing up and returned to his position on the bridge to continue his shift with Sitwell.

However… there seemed to be some arguing coming from the laboratory next door. After Cao Gui released his Observation Haki, he quickly withdrew.

The reason is simple: the Mind Stone is affecting everyone involved, Loki is behind it, and all the Avengers in that lab have been affected.

Loki amplified their stubbornness and obsession, and intensified their anger. Even Peter Parker, a high school student, directly confronted Nick Fury and Steve Rogers for looking down on him, making for a very exciting scene.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Cao Gui slightly stunned, Sitwell asked softly.

Cao Gui grinned and whispered, "Loki's men are here."

Meanwhile, outside the space carrier, Hawkeye Clinton stood in the rear cockpit of a Quinjet fighter jet, drawing his bow and aiming an arrow at the space carrier's engine.

Chapter 313 The Space Carrier: A Useless Tool

"What?" Upon hearing Cao Gui's words, Sitwell Tong Kong suddenly shrank back.

This is at an altitude of 30,000 feet. If the space carrier were to stop and crash, it would be an irreversible disaster!

"Damn, you..." Sitwell's expression was urgent, but before he could finish speaking, a loud explosion rang out, flames surged, and the entire space carrier began to shake and tilt violently.

"Shit!" Sitwell grabbed the railing beside him, nearly falling over.

"Damn it, engine number three has exploded and shut down!" Sitwell checked the system and his face immediately turned extremely ugly.

"It's alright, there are still three left, aren't there?" Cao Gui said with a faint smile. But this time, Stark wouldn't be there to help fix the engine. Was S.H.I.E.L.D. going to be doomed?

“Damn, this isn’t the time for jokes.” Sitwell’s lips twitched. “If another engine fails, we really will be plummeting from 30,000 feet!”

"Don't worry, sir." Cao Gui smiled and patted Sitwell on the shoulder. "With so many heroes here, everything will be alright."

"Hill, how's it going?" Nick Fury yelled into the channel. He had just been debating with his Avengers about whether to "weaponize the Tesseract's energy," but unfortunately, he was interrupted.

"Engine number three exploded and stopped. The damage isn't serious, but we're in the air, so we can't repair it!" Agent Hill replied immediately.

Clinton's explosive arrows did achieve a surprise effect, but the intensity of the explosion was not great; injuring or killing one person was the limit.

Although it caused a secondary explosion at the engine location, the damage to the massive engine that supports the entire space carrier was not significant.

"Damn it!" Nick Fury gritted his teeth, veins bulging on his bald head.

At this moment, he missed Tony Stark so much. If that woman were here, she could solve this problem perfectly. No one understood mechanics better than this genius.

"Hill, turn around immediately and fly towards the Atlantic!" the one-eyed black man shouted. "We absolutely cannot fall onto the American continent!"

"Roger that!"

"Sitwell, immediately activate the defensive locks on the detention area. Coulson, take men to protect the armory!" Nick Fury's orders were relayed one after another.

But... inside the space carrier, a loud roar echoed, clearly audible even from the highest point of the bridge.

Everyone present immediately changed their expressions – it was the Hulk!

Dr. Banner has turned into the Hulk!

The more sophisticated the machine, the more fragile it is. Once this space carrier is damaged to a certain extent, it may be scrapped.

However, at this moment, on the deck of the space carrier, a fully armed combat team, led by Clinton, quickly entered the space carrier.

"You five, go to the detention area and wait for my orders before proceeding."

"The rest of you, come with me to the bridge. We're going to stop all the engines!" Clinton said.

"Sir, what about engine number three? They might be able to repair it."

“S.H.I.E.L.D. doesn’t have that capability yet,” Clinton said casually. No one knew S.H.I.E.L.D. better than him.

Inside the bridge, Nick Fury stared nervously at his control screen, which showed Thor and Hulk locked in battle. The two monsters were constantly tearing off fighter jet wings or hurling armored vehicles at each other.

Nick Fury was relieved that Thor hadn't used the lightning, otherwise... they would have been doomed.

"So... what's the use of this space carrier?" Cao Gui tilted his head slightly and asked sarcastically.

"So far, I don't see any use for this thing. It's more like a double-edged sword—useless to keep, but a pity to throw away."

Cao Gui didn't lower his voice, and Nick Fury, who was not far away, heard it clearly. His face twitched immediately, and he opened his mouth to curse, but before he could finish, several grenades were thrown in.

"Grenade! Get down!"

Boom boom boom!

A series of explosions rang out, and in an instant, the entire bridge was filled with smoke, cries of agony, and bloodshed.

Under the cover of grenades, a five-man tactical squad quickly advanced into the bridge, firing their weapons in quick succession at the staff inside.

Several bullets were even fired in the direction of Cao Gui and Sitwell.

The weapons used by this five-man squad were quite interesting. Two of them carried modified AK series rifles, two carried HK G36s, and the remaining man used an AUG. These weapons were all high-end European products.

"It seems S.H.I.E.L.D. has made quite a few enemies." Cao Gui glanced in the direction of the five people, somewhat surprised, as they were all wearing Level 5 protective gear from head to toe.

The personnel on the bridge were armed with small 9mm pistols, which could not cause any damage to the heavily armed five-man combat team. Not to mention 9mm pistols, even 7.62 AKs might not be able to penetrate their body armor.

"Cao, stop making sarcastic remarks." Sitwell's face twitched slightly. "Let's take care of them quickly, or we'll really crash if this continues."

“Alright.” Cao Gui shrugged, pulled out his HK P30, and fired two shots at a small window above, forcing Hawkeye Clinton, who was drawing his bow and arrow, to turn back.

“Suppress him!” Clinton said in a deep voice, drawing back the bowstring and aiming again.

The two combatants immediately turned their guns around, however...

Bang bang bang!

Four shots rang out, and four gleaming brass bullets shot out in arcs, hitting the two combatants under their armpits and in their ankles respectively.

Although they were heavily armed, they were not the Ironclad Cavalry, and there were still gaps in their defenses. Suddenly, the two men shuddered and fell to the ground.

While the Level 5 protective gear is very sturdy, it is also correspondingly heavy. With injuries to their abdominal cavity, they would find it difficult to muster the strength to support that weight.

However, at that moment, an arrow shot over, aimed directly at Cao Gui's forehead.

"Heh..." Cao Gui sneered, dismissing the charade as a pointless trick. He reached out and grabbed the arrow, holding it firmly in his hand.

But in the next instant, Cao Gui's expression changed drastically. Hawkeye's arrows couldn't be grabbed indiscriminately; just look at what happened to Loki.

Instinctively, Cao Gui flicked his wrist and flung the arrow out.

Sure enough, with a loud bang, the arrow exploded, and the shockwave made Cao Gui's hair flutter.

"Oh shit, fucking f***!"

Just then, a painful cry of anger rang out.

Looking up... no need to look, it was Nick Fury, that damn Fuck Man. The direction Cao Gui had just thrown the arrow from was, coincidentally, right where Nick Fury was.

Unfortunately, the explosion didn't kill him, but it did injure his leg. Cao Gui stated that it was unintentional, and if it had been intentional... Nick Fury would have been in even worse shape.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Hawkeye Clinton drew his bow and fired another arrow.

Cao Gui leaped onto the small window and pulled Clinton down.

With a thud, Clinton slammed heavily onto the bridge floor.

Cao Gui... It's alright, he's got Clinton pinned down, might as well use this excellent human cushion.

Clinton reacted quickly, shoving Cao Gui aside and turning to escape. He had done his job and it was time to slip away.

But... it wasn't that easy. Cao Gui blocked his way.

Seeing this, Clinton's face darkened: "As expected, I knew you were no ordinary person."

Cao Gui's gaze swept over his eyes, which shimmered with a faint starlight, and he said in an unfriendly tone:

"Hawkeye Clinton, you've really given me a lot of trouble!"

Chapter 314 Call me lady!

“It was definitely the right decision for me to have Loki keep an eye on you…” Hawkeye said with a grim face, holding his bow and arrow with a wary expression. However, the next moment, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest and abdomen, and was sent flying backward, crashing into the wall with a thud.

"So much trouble..." Cao Gui said unhappily. He stepped on the ground, and a steel pipe flew up in a spinning motion. Cao Gui grabbed it with one hand, held it upside down, and walked over.

Clinton, who had just slid down the wall, clutched his chest and was panting heavily. Now that the enemy was surrounding him on all sides, he didn't have much time to rest and had to move immediately.

Clinton told himself to get moving quickly, and he gritted his teeth and stood up, enduring the sharp pain in his chest.

Before he could even regain his footing, a steel pipe whistled as it swung toward his head. Clinton instinctively raised his longbow to protect his head.

but……

Bang!

With a sharp crack, Clinton was sent flying backward, his longbow cracked and his head spinning.

Cao Gui frowned. The steel pipe in his hand was already dented and bent. This thing was too rubbish and not durable enough.

With a flick of his wrist, Cao Gui grasped the other end and walked step by step toward Clinton.

Seeing stars, Clinton didn't have time to recover and leaned against the wall, panting and unable to get up.

Cao Gui raised the steel pipe and slammed it down hard on his forehead.

Bang!

Clinton had a large bump on his forehead, his neck was stretched by the force, and the huge impact started from his head, went down his neck and through his whole body.

Clinton was first pulled up by the hands, then his feet left the ground, and he was thrown backwards by the force pulling from his head.

"That sounds good, it's a good start." Cao Gui said with satisfaction, twirling the steel pipe in his hand. The two ends of the pipe were already bent, only the middle was left to be straightened.

On the other side, Clinton shook his head, began to howl in pain, and the starlight in his eyes began to fade, returning to the normal pale blue eyes of a white man.

At the same time, Cao Gui came up to him and raised the steel pipe again.

“Wait, wait…” Clinton broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly said, “I’m awake now. I’m not being controlled by Loki. I know what I’m doing.”
