Chapter 145 Return and Reunion

"I want to get back everything I lost!"

After Hydra, led by Alexander Pierce, was defeated, Nick Fury, with a firm belief in rebuilding S.H.I.E.L.D., began to work on related matters.

But things didn't go as planned, and the impact of the [Insight Project] obviously did not end just because of Link's action.

The Battle of New York, terrorist attacks, and predatory giants, one after another, caused the people to completely lose confidence in the federal government and angrily criticized its inaction and incompetence.

After all, who can accept that they continue to live in such a dangerous and troubled city?

If it weren't for the mayor of New York City, Kal-El, who is currently widely recognized as the "strongest superhero Superman", this city, rated as "the most unsafe city in the world to live in", would have long been reduced to a barren land.

Under constant demonstrations and pressure from more and more people, the federal government launched "S.H.I.E.L.D." as the "target" to take all the blame.

However, during the several-day rigorous interrogation process of its leader and chief executive, Alexander Pierce, some "episodes" occurred.

It is hard to imagine that Alexander Pierce was almost rescued under such tight confinement, and in the process of escaping, he seemed to die "accidentally",

Some of S.H.I.E.L.D.’s confidential information and documents were leaked and made public, and with the help of some behind-the-scenes pushers, the public vented their anger on this organization that “only wastes taxpayers’ money.”

But this also shows the terrifying proliferation of the Hydra "cut off one head and grow two heads". They seem to be everywhere, infiltrating and lurking into every dark corner of the country.

It also made Nick Fury realize that SHIELD had become a hopeless quagmire.

Nick Fury immediately launched the long-dormant "Avengers" plan, temporarily withdrawing from S.H.I.E.L.D.

With Iron Man Tony Stark and Captain America Steve Rogers as the two core members of the team, they work together to twist this huge group power into one rope.

In fact, they did it, and followed the clues to find the remnants of Hydra and their leader, Baron Strucker.

Get back the [Psychic Scepter] that has been tracked for a long time, and destroy the conspiracy of Hydra to revive again.

Everything seemed so "perfect".

But this did not free Nick Fury from his anxious state of mind at all.

Because he knows very well that the peaceful scene in front of him is only temporary, and there are still endless crises and threats lurking in the future.

He pays close attention to the movements of UEP. This group of guys who are far more efficient than SHIELD, during this period of time, do not just "stand on the sidelines", but deal with sudden threats from all over the world.

The accidental "collapse" of Sakura Country's nuclear power reactor facility did not cause much international repercussions. Instead, it was covered up.

Relevant information such as "The Wild Beast" and "The Monster" were quickly cleaned up soon after they appeared on the Internet, leaving no trace.

The space exploration ship [Prometheus], ​​which was launched not long ago, has gradually been deliberately indifferent to many more eye-catching entertainment news and celebrity scandals.

All routes to Antarctica were canceled and strictly isolated, and the scientific research station immediately issued a covert announcement.

The "star orbit anomalies" discovered by some astronomy enthusiasts and NASA have also been buried in a "garbage heap" full of useless information.

It’s just that what Nick Fury probably didn’t expect was that Tony Stark was far more extreme and anxious than him, and he took actions that he sincerely regretted. But these are all things for a later time...

At this moment, Nick Fury has more important things to do.

Go meet someone.

"Link"

During the Battle of New York, everyone thought that he had transformed into the body of God, used incredible miraculous power to end the impending despair, and finally "disappeared".

Not long ago, Nick Fury's almost forgotten agent station sent an urgent message.

To be precise, it is a photo, a photo from behind of someone sitting in a coffee shop drinking Coke.

Looking at some familiar figures on the screen, Nick Fury's originally calm mood suddenly surged, and his heart couldn't stop beating.

The palms of his hands clenched tightly, and a light shone in his eyes.

It's him!

It's him!

it's him!

At the first glance at the profile of the man in the photo, Nick Fury was able to almost 100% confirm the authenticity of his identity.

The reason lies in his eyes, which are full of vicissitudes of life and full of the traces of time.

It is absolutely impossible for others to imitate!

At the same time, Nick Fury also realized that Link's sudden appearance was no coincidence, and it must contain deep meaning.

After the Battle of New York, it wasn't like he hadn't looked for traces of Link, but considering Link's special nature at that time, he didn't know how many pairs of eyes were watching.

Nick Fury could only search for clues as secretly as possible, but unfortunately he did not gain anything.

At this moment, Nick Fury's heart was filled with doubts and confusion.

Why did Link disappear for so long?

Where did he go?

And why did it appear again today?

The most important thing is, of course, does that astonishing power that is like the power of a god still exist?

The earth cannot allow such an awesome existence to appear!

The thoughts in his head were like thousands of chains, entangling Nick Fury, and the thick fog called doubt obscured his vision.

But Nick Fury also realized that it was no coincidence that Link suddenly appeared in the coffee shop where they often met.

Link was waiting for him.

Without alerting anyone, Nick Fury went to the coffee shop alone.

Soon, the Cadillac, which had been refitted and upgraded and equipped with the most advanced weapon defense system and air conditioning fresh air filtration equipment, stopped in front of the coffee shop.

Nick Fury, still wearing a patent leather coat, pushed open the glass door and walked slowly into the coffee shop. He looked around to make sure there was nothing unusual.

On the seat not far away, Link, with a smile on his face, raised his hand and motioned Nick Fury to come and sit down.

Nick Fury also hurried to the seat.

As soon as he sat down, he couldn't wait to look at Link's face and spoke in a deep voice, revealing a hint of temptation and doubt in his words.

"You... are back?"

Link nodded slightly, still in the same confident tone, and responded,

"Yes,"

"I AM BACK."

"I guess you must have a lot of doubts..."
