Chapter 527: Chapter 526: Henry in Action
Nick saw himself driving the car back and immediately started reversing to continue the escape.
Ahmanet, however, was not in a hurry. With a wave of her hand, she ordered her subordinates to pursue them.
Immediately, zombies leaped out from the woods, smashing the car windows with their bodies, crawling inside, and attacking Nick.
Nick fought off the zombies while trying to control the car. Finally, he used the car's body to scrape against a large tree, splitting the zombie's body in two.
But unexpectedly, the zombie with only half its body still had the ability to attack. Nick grabbed the upper body of the zombie and threw it out of the other side of the car window.
However, just as Nick dealt with one, another zombie jumped onto the roof of the car, smashed the windshield with its head, crawled in, and reached out to grab Nick.
Nick and Jenny kicked at the zombie with their feet, but there was no good way to deal with it. In the end, they were grabbed by the zombie and ended up flipping the car, rolling down the hill.
Because Nick wasn't wearing a seatbelt, he was thrown out of the car during the rollover. Fortunately, he wasn't worried about the issue of death at this moment, so he wasn't injured.
Jenny, who was inside the car and wearing a seatbelt, wasn't seriously injured either.
Nick got up from the ground and quickly ran to the overturned car, calling out Jenny's name.
"Jenny, Jenny!"
Jenny, who was climbing in the car, saw a figure emerging from the distant woods and shouted, "Nick, Nick, she's coming."
Seeing Ahmanet approaching step by step, Nick stood up, picked up a thick branch as a weapon, and held it in his hand.
Nick held the weapon and approached Ahmanet, constantly cheering himself up, saying, "I'll be fine. I'll definitely defeat her."
Jenny, who was still in the car, shouted from behind, "Take her down, Nick!"
"Kick her butt!"
Nick approached Ahmanet and swung the stick towards her head.
However, Ahmanet broke the stick with one punch, followed by an uppercut, sending Nick flying into the air.
"Bang!"
Nick fell from the sky and slammed hard onto the ground.
Seeing this scene, Jenny's mouth dropped open, not expecting the other party to be so powerful.
Jenny watched Ahmanet approaching and immediately sensed the danger. Just as she was about to climb out of the car, she was grabbed by the approaching Ahmanet.
Just as Ahmanet was about to strike, suddenly a grappling hook shot through her body from behind, pulling her out.
This sudden scene left Nick and Jenny somewhat bewildered.
But Itachi and Deidara in the treetops saw everything clearly. They had already noticed that SHIELD personnel had arrived here.
Suddenly, many operatives armed with weapons appeared in the woods, and many vehicles drove in.
A SHIELD agent picked up a grappling hook, pulled the trigger again, and shot through Ahmanet's body.
Ahmanet grabbed the grappling hook from her body and saw that the head of the hook was filled with mercury. The moment it penetrated her body, it exploded inside, suppressing her power.
As she was checking, more grappling hooks shot from all directions, piercing her body.
At this moment, a SHIELD agent shouted, "Keep attacking, pull her over!"
"SHIELD Special Task Force, continue the operation, take down the target!"
A large number of SHIELD operatives appeared in the jungle, and several of them came to Jenny's side, still in the car, and rescued her from the vehicle.
Nick looked at these SHIELD operatives, feeling somewhat puzzled, and said to a SHIELD agent who approached him, "Who are you guys?"
However, the other party paid no attention to Nick. They raised their firearms, and a tranquilizer dart shot Nick, causing him to pass out on the spot.
…
On the other side-
At this moment, Coulson, along with the SHIELD special task force members and Kabuto, had already arrived in Afganistan and found the village with the underground caves.
Coulson looked at the village in front of him, which was already half-buried in yellow sand, and the existence of the underground caves was completely invisible.
It was yesterday's sudden sandstorm that not only delayed their arrival here but also completely buried the tomb, which had resurfaced.
Coulson ordered the agents around him, "The cave is nearby. Everyone, move out and find the entrance for me."
"Also, be careful of the quicksand under your feet. Don't have any accidents."
At this moment, Kabuto walked on top of the yellow sand. After walking around in a circle, he felt the difference in the sand under his feet. Then he squatted down and felt it again. Afterward, he took out an explosive tag and buried it in the sand.
Then he shouted, "Everyone, retreat, retreat 50 meters!"
As Kabuto shouted, the other agents glanced at him and followed his orders to retreat.
After retreating a distance himself, Kabuto formed a tiger seal and shouted, "Explode!"
"Boom!"
With an explosion, a large amount of gravel was blasted into the sky. In the next moment, where the explosive tag detonated, a large pit appeared, and a large amount of yellow sand flowed into the pit.
After the surrounding yellow sand flowed away, the appearance of the cave was revealed.
A huge ancient Egyptian statue stood there.
Seeing all this, Coulson knew that they had once again found the so-called "ancient temple."
Kabuto looked at Coulson and said, "Coulson, the department should reimburse me for this explosive tag."
Coulson smiled and said, "No problem. When we return, all the ninja tools exchanged will be assigned to you."
Kabuto smiled, then said, "Let's quickly go down and check to see if this is the place we're looking for."
Coulson nodded and said, "Good, let's go down and take a look."
Several SHIELD agents, wearing light equipment, were the first to descend, followed by arranging rope descents.
However, Kabuto didn't bother with such trouble. He jumped directly down from the entrance of the cave and landed smoothly at the bottom of the cave.
The other SHIELD personnel, seeing Kabuto's slick behavior, couldn't help but show a hint of envy.
Kabuto picked up a flashlight and began to inspect the interior of the cave. Because of the sandstorm, the bottom of the cave was covered with a layer of yellow sand, but various burial objects and ornaments could still be seen.
At this time, Coulson also descended to the bottom of the cave using rope descent. He walked up to Kabuto and asked, "Have you found anything?"
"Is there anything similar to the ancient temple you came from before? Is there a teleportation formation here?"
Kabuto shook his head and said, "I haven't found anything yet. I can't confirm whether there is a teleportation formation here."
Then Kabuto continued to walk towards the interior of the cave. Soon, he came to the place where Ahmanet had been imprisoned before.
Looking at these guardian statues, Kabuto inspected them all but found nothing special.
Kabuto said somewhat regretfully, "Coulson, this isn't the place we're looking for. I haven't found any traces of barriers or formations here."
"There are no teleportation formations here either."
But Kabuto pointed to the broken iron chain and said, "Coulson, there is something very important missing here."
"Although I don't know what it is, these guardian statues here should have been used to guard it."
"The thing buried in this pool of mercury is not simple," Kabuto said.
Coulson, hearing Kabuto's remark that this wasn't the place they were looking for, felt somewhat disappointed. However, Kabuto reminded him that something important was missing here, which should be quite significant.
After looking around, Coulson decided not to give up. He ordered the items inside to be organized and taken away directly. A valuable Egyptian tomb worth several billion dollars was not something they could just abandon.
"Everyone, clean up this place. Pack up any small items that can be taken away first, and arrange for helicopters to lift the statues out," Coulson instructed.
Then he looked at Kabuto and said, "As for what you mentioned, I'll call the Delta Force military and ask them what they took from here."
Kabuto nodded, and then he and Coulson jumped out of the cave.
Once outside, Coulson took out his satellite phone and made a call.
"What? They took away an Egyptian coffin?"
"Where is it?"
"What? The plane crashed, and only two people survived."
"The item is missing?"
After hanging up the phone, Coulson made another call and learned that the area had already been taken over by personnel from the SHIELD UK branch.
Furthermore, he was informed that during the crash, an American soldier named Nick Morton had died but had later revived. On the other hand, their SHIELD agent, Ferrel, had died in the accident.
"Revived from death?" Coulson immediately realized that this matter was not simple.
"Kabuto, that item might be at the SHIELD UK branch in London now."
"We need to pay a visit to the branch. As for here, let other SHIELD personnel take care of it."
Kabuto also heard Coulson mention the resurrection from death, which made him ponder.
"Okay, no problem."
Afterward, Coulson left some people behind at the ancient tomb to wait for reinforcements while he, along with some others and Kabuto, boarded a plane and headed towards the SHIELD UK branch.
…
Jötunheim-
At this moment, Charles had already been summoned with his wooden clone.
With the return of the main body, Charles dispelled the wooden clone and absorbed its memories from that day, learning that Thor had expressed a desire to spar with him.
Charles took out the food he had brought back to the base this time from his storage space.
"Thor, come and have some food and drink!"
Upon hearing Charles's call, Thor's figure quickly appeared before him.
Looking at the steaming, fresh food, Thor asked in surprise, "Charles, where did you get this food from?"
"Didn't you say that all the fresh food was gone?"
Charles smiled and said, "Exactly because it's gone, I found a way to replenish it."
"This time, there's plenty of food, enough for us to eat until the reinforcements from Asgard arrive."
"Try this beer, Lost Coast, it tastes really good."
Upon hearing Charles mention beer, Thor's eyes lit up. He picked up a bottle of Lost Coast from the table and drank it directly.
Soon, Thor finished a bottle of beer, and looking at the empty bottle in his hand, he said, "This beer does taste really good."
"I hope you've replenished enough, or else I'm afraid I won't be able to drink until we return to Asgard."
Seeing Thor's sturdy physique, Charles thought to himself: Drinking until returning to Asgard, Thor, you already have plans to bulk up in advance.
"Don't talk about drinking until returning to Asgard. It's already good enough if you can hold on until the reinforcements from Asgard arrive," Charles said.
Thor sat down on a chair and said with a smile, "Then I guess I'll have to drink less."
Then Thor started eating with Charles, but during the meal, he managed to drink half a crate of beer by himself. This was still the result of his utmost restraint, as he planned to finish the remaining half crate at noon.
…
London-
Inside the SHIELD base-
At this moment, several agents were dragging Nick forward.
Nick had already regained consciousness by now and looked at the people around him, asking, "Who are you guys?"
"Where are you taking me?"
Passing through layers of gates, Nick was brought into a huge office where no one was present, but there were many instruments placed as decorations.
As Nick looked around, the senior SHIELD agent in London, Henry Jekyll, walked out and said with a smile, "Don't be nervous."
Nick looked at the man and asked in confusion, "Who are you?"
Henry Jekyll walked towards him step by step and said, "Me?"
"Mr. Morton, the more important question, coincidentally, is who are you?"
"In theory, I know everything about you."
Henry walked to the desk, picked up a file, and then walked towards Nick, saying:
"A military reconnaissance officer, an outstanding soldier."
"And page by page displaying an impressive yet puzzling moral stance."
"But you see, this file has no substantive value to me."
"That's why I want to have a conversation with you."
Nick looked at the man in front of him and asked the question he had raised at the beginning.
"Who are you?"
Henry looked at Nick and said, "I am a doctor, a specialist in chemical pathology, a neurosurgeon, and a senior agent of the SHIELD UK branch."
"At the same time, I am also a lawyer."
Henry walked to the side, approached a table, picked up an instrument, and said, "My name is Henry, Henry Jekyll."
"These days, I've been specializing in immunology, perhaps with some relation to infectious diseases."
Taking the instrument, Henry walked to his desk and said:
"If possible, Mr. Morton, I would like to tell you a story, a story about one of my patients."
