Don't be nervous..."
Zemo's face still held that calm and composed expression.
He didn't even bother to take out the Energy Shooter from his waist.
Shaking a seemingly ordinary mobile phone in his hand, he said,
"To prevent certain people from making small moves, Boss has placed a mental restriction on her."
"If everything goes normally, then in 12 hours, Boss will personally call her to remove the restriction, and she will regain consciousness."
"But if anything unexpected happens, then in 12 hours, her brain will automatically lock up, and she will become a mindless walking corpse!"
Of course, all of this was a lie Zemo made up on the spot!
Because even Professor X couldn't use Mind Manipulation through a phone call.
Karl probably couldn't either...
But Zemo's goal was merely to stall the enemies, to make them temporarily dare not act rashly.
Facts proved.
The simpler the method, the more effective it was!
"..."
Even though Hawkeye didn't believe such an absurd statement from the bottom of his heart.
But for the sake of his friend's safety, he had no choice but to compromise.
He then put down his bow and arrow, took out a specially made key, and threw it over.
"Use this to open those shackles, otherwise they'll explode."
Zemo seemed to have expected it, and the smile on his face grew even wider.
While bending down to pick up the key, he also placed the phone on the ground.
Then he pulled Samuel Sterns and walked towards the other side of the bridge without looking back.
He wasn't afraid that the other party would ambush him from behind.
This scene made Hawkeye both angry and impressed!
Among the many enemies he had fought, this man was definitely the most composed, calm, and unfathomable one!
But what he couldn't quite understand was.
Why would such a "figure" obey that newly risen "upstart"?
Wasn't joining S.H.I.E.L.D. more appealing?
"Forget it, let's take Natasha back first..."
However.
Just as Hawkeye was about to walk back with Black Widow, a sudden drastic change occurred!
Rumble...!!!
The sea surface not far away suddenly began to churn violently.
Soon, even the entire Golden Gate Bridge began to sway violently back and forth.
Immediately after.
Accompanied by a dull explosion.
Under everyone's astonished gaze, a hideous figure, a hundred meters tall, leaped out from the bottom of the sea.
Creak...!!!
A teeth-grinding metallic friction sound came from the huge bridge tower above everyone's heads, which connected the bridge deck to numerous steel cables.
Hawkeye immediately pulled the dazed Black Widow and struggled forward amidst the violent shaking.
"Officer, emergency, we are under attack by an unknown giant creature, this bridge probably won't last much longer, request for backup!!"
In fact, even if he didn't report, Nick Fury, who was currently in the Sky Carrier, had already seen the situation below through the surveillance screen.
"Motherfucker, what the hell is this thing?"
Nick Fury was also completely bewildered by this.
Aside from the alien Leviathan beast that appeared in the New York War a few months ago, he had never seen such a gigantic monster on Earth?
But even the Leviathan beast would probably only be considered a flying little brother in front of it.
What's going on?
Are "aliens" invading Earth again?
But now was clearly not a good time to delve into this question.
So he decisively gave the order, "Immediately send out Quinjets to pick up Agent Barton and Agent Romanoff from that godforsaken place."
"At the same time, lower the Sky Carrier's altitude to eight thousand meters, activate all secondary cannons and long-range sniper arrays, and completely wipe that damned ugly thing from my sight!!"
"Yes!"
Officer Maria Hill responded and then began to assign tasks to everyone.
Boom boom boom...!!!
Soon, a total of 12 secondary cannons, located on both sides of the Sky Carrier's hull, fired a volley at the "Invader" that was rampaging near the Golden Gate Bridge below.
Each secondary cannon adopted a 3-barrel 300mm large-caliber design, possessing terrifying destructive power capable of destroying the armor layers of similar aircraft carriers or destroyers, and it could also precisely strike all targets within 150 kilometers.
The long-range sniper array deployed at the bottom of the hull, on the other hand, used 50mm caliber electromagnetic cannons, which automatically identified and locked targets through the Insight Satellite and performed ultra-long-range precise sniping with high-kinetic energy destructive weapons.
Rumble...!!!
The artillery fire descending from the sky instantly engulfed the "Invader's" huge figure.
The smoke generated by the explosion obscured the sky.
The waves stirred up by the Impact were as turbulent as a tsunami.
"Oh yeah!!!"
A cheer immediately erupted in the Sky Carrier's command room, and the staff high-fived and cheered, as if they had just achieved some great victory.
Even Nick Fury's face showed a smug expression, "Hmph, even without the help of the Avengers, S.H.I.E.L.D. has the ability to handle such emergencies... Hmm???"
Suddenly, Nick Fury seemed to have seen something incredible, his eyes widened sharply, pointing at the unharmed monster on the screen, and roared furiously:
"Who the hell can tell me why that damned ugly thing is still alive!!!"
"How is this possible?"
Maria Hill let out an exclamation.
The smart bombs that could penetrate even a destroyer's armor not only failed to kill the monster directly, but they couldn't even penetrate the hard armor on its body!
The long-range sniper array was even less effective; it didn't even make a splash.
This is too unscientific, isn't it?
Roar...!!!
On the sea surface, the "Invader," having been attacked by a volley of artillery fire, seemed to have been provoked into ferocity and let out an angry roar towards the sky.
The terrifying sound could be clearly heard even tens of kilometers away.
Then the "Invader" charged straight towards the Golden Gate Bridge.
Although the previous attack failed to break through its defense, it did make it feel pain.
Boom...!!!
With a deafening roar, the Golden Gate Bridge, which spanned both sides of the strait, was broken into two sections near its middle.
And the two main steel cables, 92.7 centimeters in diameter and weighing 24,500 tons each, which had lost their anchorage above the bridge deck,
were like two whips raised high, directly whipping the "Invader's" body, weighing over 20,000 tons, flying away and crashing heavily into a building along the coastline.
(Note: All Kaiju weights in this text adopt the latest official settings from "Pacific Rim," where the original setting was less than 3,000 tons.)
But after a few minutes, it shook its somewhat dizzy head and stood up again.
"Damn it, fire quickly, we absolutely cannot let it enter the city."
Seeing that he had inadvertently made things worse, Nick Fury could only bite the bullet and order a new round of attacks to prevent the situation from escalating further.
However.
Just then.
A staff member suddenly raised his hand and shouted loudly:
"Officer, please wait, the Insight System just detected that The Daily Bugle has published a warning news related to this monster."
"The news also specifically mentioned some characteristics of the monster..."
"Including hard armor capable of withstanding any conventional weapon attack, and highly toxic blue blood that is fatally harmful to humans!!!"
