Chapter 35: Explosive Revelations!
Qi Jun had never imagined his first encounter with Phil Coulson would be under such circumstances.
Their initial meeting was anything but friendly!
Three guns were pointed at Phil Coulson's head, and no one would consider this a friendly scenario!
.............
Qi Jun recognized Phil Coulson instantly.
Setting aside the fact that he looked eighty to ninety percent like his depiction in movies and TV shows, just take the car adorned with the unique S.H.I.E.L.D. eagle emblem and the middle-aged agent whose hairline had receded to the top of his head.
Having followed six seasons of "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.," Qi Jun can easily recognize this guy.
Qi Jun also had some unsettling thoughts.
He had been discovered!
Qi Jun trusted the powers manifested by the [Mutated Stone].
Since it was said that no surveillance could capture his image, then it indeed couldn't!
But upon removing the 'Undercover Sunglasses' and putting on 'Rorschach's Mask of Forgetting,' Qi Jun became visible to people!
However, afterward, people who had seen Qi Jun would quickly forget much about him.
But since Phil Coulson had appeared so quickly here, there must be S.H.I.E.L.D. agents in the dock.
Or perhaps, even HYDRA agents!
Qi Jun was actually more inclined to believe it was HYDRA agents.
Because field agents of HYDRA, disguised within S.H.I.E.L.D., were far more numerous!
HYDRA built up S.H.I.E.L.D., but not really the true S.H.I.E.L.D.; those in the field were often HYDRA members!
Although Qi Jun wasn't overly panicky—after all, his face was masked, and it was a mask that could make people forget most memories, and he couldn't be captured on camera—he was still irked by the thought that HYDRA knew of his presence.
Based on Qi Jun's understanding of HYDRA, these guys would definitely move quickly to track and capture him.
With a global intelligence network at their disposal, this would be a troublesome matter!
Unless every outing involves using the [Mutated Stone] to erase all traces.
Otherwise, with HYDRA's vast intelligence support, finding him was only a matter of time.:
Unaware that his initial assumption was incorrect, Qi Jun did not want to expose himself to these organizations gradually.
Staring intently at Phil Coulson's face, Qi Jun was internally torn in a constant battle!
To kill?
Or not to kill?
That is the question!
.............
Huh?
Did you think Qi Jun was considering whether to kill Phil Coulson?
Wrong!
Dead wrong!
After all, in the Marvel universe, Phil Coulson is considered a good guy.
Although he is absolutely ruthless towards his enemies, Qi Jun does not think of killing him, at least not until he crosses a specific line.
What Qi Jun was really considering was whether to detonate the explosives buried within the dock!
Qi Jun believed that he might have inadvertently exposed something, though he did not know what.
So, any traces would naturally be erased by igniting the oil-filled containers and turning the entire dock into a fiery inferno!
With the telekinetic detonator powered by his energy-manifesting abilities, Qi Jun needed only a thought to turn the whole dock into a hellish blaze!
And since Qi Jun and his companions had already moved about seven to eight hundred meters away from the dock, although a powerful shockwave was imminent, Qi Jun was not overly concerned.
The passive effect of the [Mutated Stone] shielded Qi Jun from all energy blasts that could harm him.
And shockwaves were precisely that.
Although the [Mutated Stone]'s passive effects varied proportionally with changes in Qi Jun's physical strength, as long as the attack didn't instantly pulverize him, it would be absorbed entirely by the [Mutated Stone]'s passive effects!
Qi Jun wasn't worried about withstanding the explosive force of the oil-filled containers, but that didn't mean the shockwaves could frighten him.
Explosions of oil-filled containers were indeed powerful, but they were not as destructive as meticulously crafted bombs or missiles, and their power had limits.
Despite their massive size, the real danger lay in the sea of fire caused by the scattered, burning oil.
Oil is inherently flammable, and the seaside winds would only feed the flames. Such a fire, even if the entire New York Fire Department were summoned, could not be extinguished!
By then, not to mention the potential HYDRA agents lurking within, all unintentional traces left by Qi Jun would be completely eradicated.

"Hi~~"
"I really mean no harm."
"I'm a journalist."
"You can see my credentials."
"You can verify the authenticity of the credentials online."
"I just heard the explosion and came to check it out."
Phil Coulson had no idea that Qi Jun was staring intensely at him.
Even his appearance had triggered many terrifying scenarios in Qi Jun's mind.
On this point, Qi Jun and Nick Fury might even find common ground~
Phil Coulson was earnestly waving his raised hands, signaling his harmlessness.
Although confident that these people probably wouldn't harm him, Phil Coulson wasn't about to invite trouble unnecessarily.
"What...?"
Big Daddy and Hit-Girl were confused.
What's going on?
Are you a journalist?
Do you realize that when you suddenly started the car and turned on the headlights, we were just about to pull the trigger?
Is this what they call 'ignorance is bliss'?
Big Daddy and Hit-Girl were internally criticizing.
Meanwhile, Qi Jun, watching Coulson's effort to appear harmless, seemed to make a resolute decision.
In Qi Jun's mind, it was as if he had firmly pressed something.
.............
Boom!!!!
Suddenly, a massive explosion roared from the direction of the dock.
Accompanying the booming sound was one, even several, powerful shockwaves sweeping across.
Phil Coulson, Big Daddy, and Hit-Girl were all caught off guard, blown away, and rolling to the ground.
Only Qi Jun stood proud and unmoved.
Facing the rising flames and the mushrooming smoke, he remained silent for a long time.
I, Qi Jun, have ultimately sinned!
