Chapter 384: Heavy Casualties
Many citizens who had been hiding for a day also came out of their hiding places, and the aliens who had been horrifying before seemed nothing more than that.
What spearguns, crossbow bolts, shotguns greet together. Some people saw that the Chitauri were going to run into the sky, so they threw fishing nets down from high-rises, blind cats killed mice, and more or less caught a few in the nets.
The weapons of the remaining army also opened fire again, and all the targets were aimed at the sky, and it was only one more that could be hit at this time.
All the mercenaries who had been hiding in the tavern and fighting with the Chitauri in the streets also shot at the sky, as if celebrating a festival.
"Block me..." Lorna said to her little friends, and then a little green light radiated from her fingers, and she arranged an invisible magnetic net around the tavern.
Many Chitauri who flew over here fell down before they understood what was going on, and then became a talking point for the mercenaries to brag about in the future.
The resistance in the two places where the heavy troops were assembled was even more intense, but this refers to ordinary people. The heroes are the main force of the battle. After fighting for a day, they are basically exhausted. West and the others chased and killed them all the way, and finally joined Captain America.
"Captain, thank you for your hard work." Despite her disagreement, Daisy still respected Steve Rogers, and she could tell how fierce the battle was by seeing his blood.
The blood of the Chitauri is iron gray, and the blood on Captain America is basically his own. When Daisy found the veteran, he was sitting on the corpse of the enemy to rest.
"Did this guy blow up?" Captain America asked, pointing to the deep pit not far away.
There are no corpses in the pit, only the hoods of some superstars, fragments of cloaks, some blue blood scattered around, and several completely charred mental power extraction devices.
"Dead?" Daisy was not very sure, she picked up the fragment of the suspected mental power extraction device, looked around, crushed it, and searched for similar targets nearby according to the special frequency of the device, but found nothing.
Asked the White Queen to search with her mental power, but she didn't see anyone.
It is not known whether it was blown up or teleported away.
In Daisy's view, the two outcomes are equally likely, and Thanos looks like a big and three rough, but he is actually a very famous scientist. He learned all the scientific and technological knowledge of the Eternal Clan when he was a teenager, and then wandered in the universe. For countless years, it didn't seem strange to make an emergency teleportation device for his loyal subordinates.
Secretly scolded the enemy for being difficult.
When picking up Captain America's shield and preparing to return it to him, Daisy discovered an unexpected thing. This shield was actually contaminated with the power of a lot of soul stones, which means that this shield follows the superstar spirit. The force exploded, and by chance, it possessed the characteristics of a little artifact.
Psychic abilities will bless the user, and the stronger the belief, the more attributes it will bless. Originally, the shield was friendly to Captain America, but now it is almost becoming an exclusive weapon.
Daisy was stunned for a while, could it be the same in Yuan Shikong?
If Captain America holds this shield, then many incredible achievements can be explained. The power of the mind is infinite, and Captain Steve Rogers is a person with firm belief. The combination of the two is simply invincible... ...
Pass the shield to Captain America, and as long as he holds this shield in the future, he will be immune to all spiritual abilities lower than the mind stone, and the effect can be said to be very powerful.
"Give me the scepter, this is the jurisdiction of S.H.I.E.L.D.." A major tried to take the spiritual scepter away, but was snatched by Daisy, who had quick eyes and quick hands.
The other party persisted in her gaze for two seconds, and finally chose to back down.
Count your senses! Daisy doesn't care who's instructing the other party to take the scepter, it's something from S.H.I.E.L.D.! Of course, it's also her...
What is the purpose of working so hard to climb to the top of S.H.I.E.L.D. Isn't it just for these things?
Peggy Carter's words are good, give in when you can give in, and don't back down when you can't give in. This is the spirit of S.H.I.E.L.D. inherited from Torch!
However, there were too many people who saw the spiritual scepter at the scene, and it was not enough to count it as their own private property. In a short period of time, they had to use the signboard of S.H.I.E.L.D. to hold the spiritual scepter and the spiritual gem within it.
As a device for controlling six infinite gems, the Infinity Gauntlet has a very precise sequence of installing gems, and every step cannot be wrong. From power, space, reality, time, soul to mind, this is a process from real to virtual.
Thanos has held the Soul Gem for countless years, and can only use it as a scepter. If you don't worry about losing it, it can explain the problem. This gem is in the last step, and it is actually useless to hold it in advance.
But it's impossible for Daisy to give in. Anyway, it's always right to put it away first.
Fighting continued until the sun went down, and the Chitauri invasion of Earth ended in failure.
How many aliens have been killed is hard to count in a short period of time. Daisy estimates that the Chitauri who came to the earth are estimated to be nearly 30,000. Now at least one-fifth, or even one-third are dead, and the rest are injured. There were quite a few of them, and the main troop carrier like the Arowana was exhausted, and their injuries were not enough to describe their loss.
"Your Excellency Commander..." A school officer was about to report to her.
Daisy waved her hand, indicating that she had returned the command, don't look for me! Do you want me to bear the pension expenses? dream! Go to your superiors.
Earth suffered a lot. Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. participated in the battle with 4,000 people. According to rough statistics, more than 500 people died, and more than 300 people were injured to varying degrees.
So many nimble agents have died, the army has a higher death rate in battle, and the casualties must have exceeded 10,000. In the brutal street battles, many teams were completely wiped out and completely lost contact. According to the statistics, it is not uncommon to sacrifice 20,000 or 30,000.
This pension will be an astronomical figure, and more of it will be the cost of post-war reconstruction. That figure can scare many people to death.
Seeing that the battle was over, Ou Heizi, who hadn't known to be hiding in the cave before, came out again and made a televised speech, to the effect that God bless America. After that, the flag was lowered at half-mast, and there was a moment of silence.
Daisy called several relatives and friends. Lorna was safe and well, and Wanda even kept her villa intact. She was overjoyed and praised Wanda for a while.
The headquarters and production workshop of Hanmer Military Industry are located in the suburbs. There are many mechanical soldiers defending, and there are also maids to help. Generally speaking, the damage is not big. She can find several shareholders to share the small losses without paying much money.
