Chapter 2179: Battle of Two Cities! (Twenty-One)
"Yes, I can't describe it in detail, but generally speaking it's like this...Okay, thank you, thank you very much, Doctor."
Peter hung up the phone, pushed the door open and walked into the room and said to Bruce: "A very good surgeon will come here soon. He will give you a detailed examination to make sure that your wound will not affect some important functions, and then clean and bandage you."
Bruce leaned on the head of the bed and said: "I can understand that he is a very good surgeon, but how can he examine me here? There are no instruments."
"It just so happens that he is a wizard, and the Supreme Wizard." Peter spread his hands and said: "If the problem is not serious, he can even heal you directly, but it is hard to say. If Spider-Man's self-healing ability can't do anything with this kind of wound, it means that there may be something wrong with Ms. Natasha's weapon."
Bruce pursed his lips. He suspected that the female agent with a bad taste gave him such a blow, maybe just to see him walk like a crab. He would not be fooled. He would never get off the ground before the wound healed.
Soon, Bruce saw a flash of light outside the house, and a strange voice came from outside the door.
"Sorry, Peter, I'm a little busy. I rarely hear that you can't handle something, so I came here quickly."
"I'm really sorry to disturb you at work, Doctor. Is there any emergency in New York? Well, the reason I didn't show up is actually..."
"No need to explain, Peter. I've heard from Nick that there is no emergency in New York. Except that the Brooklyn Bridge is broken again, a guy wearing underwear outside suddenly inserted a building on the coastline, and the people in another strange building fought with the mecha in this building, everything is normal."
"So what are you busy with, Doctor?"
Bruce sighed when he heard the voice, And said: "The Grand Master of the Temple in New York sent me a message that there has been unknown demonic energy passing through the Earth's defense network, and the landing point is in New York, and they have already caught up with that guy."
"But his methods are very strange, unlike any type of magic we know, and he finally escaped. The Grand Masters unanimously agreed that this guy is very dangerous, so I ended my retreat early and left the Sanctum Sanctorum, ready to fight him."
While speaking, Bruce saw a man in strange clothes walked in. He had a neat beard, his eyes were shining, his red cloak fluttered in the wind, and there was a faint glow of magic between his hands.
"Bruce, let me introduce you, this is Stephen Strange, the Supreme Sorcerer of the Earth, you can call him Doctor Strange, he is the best surgeon in the world."
"Once was." Strange corrected, he walked up and waved at Bruce, and Bruce found himself pressed to the head of the bed out of thin air.
Strange glanced at the wound between Bruce's legs, then narrowed his eyes, and looked at Bruce with a slightly admiring look and said, "It's hard for me to imagine what kind of pervert dares to attack Black Widow. Don't you know that she is full of poison?"
Bruce's Adam's apple moved. He knew that he should have guessed it, because he felt dizzy when he smelled Natasha's perfume. This was not his hallucination, but the effect of drugs.
But he did not have the willpower to resist the effect of drugs, and Natasha was indeed a little too beautiful and hot.
Strange sighed, he pressed Bruce's knees, and the light on his hand flashed, flashed, and flashed again.
The wound did not heal, but Strange stood up and looked at Peter and said, "Contact SHIELD. This should be a special cell-inhibiting toxin, which is specially used to create unhealable wounds."
"The Time Stone is useless?"
"I'm not sure if it will affect certain functions." Strange looked at Bruce and said, "I've never done this before, and children of your age always take these things seriously. Even if there is a one in ten thousand chance of error, would you be willing to let me try?"
Peter and Bruce shook their heads like rattles.
In the office of SHIELD, Natasha leaned against the French window with her arms folded and said, "Don't worry, Director. Boys of this age think their weapons are more important than anything else. The wound is enough to keep him lying down for a week."
"That's good. He doesn't know how many people in this city are watching him, and he dares to wander around the streets." Nick shook his head in dissatisfaction, threw the file on the table and said, "I'm thankful that he can be half as steady as Peter."
Natasha raised her eyebrows and said, "So there are really so many people who want to kill him?"
"That's the key." Nick He flicked the file on the table and said, "The Wayne Group is horribly large, and anything that happens to Bruce Wayne, the nominal chairman, will affect the situation in this country and even the world."
"The situation is so chaotic now that it is inevitable that someone will want to fish in troubled waters. Important figures such as Bruce Wayne and Tony Stark must not have any problems."
"Tony's side is easy to deal with. The evil Iron Man in silver-white armor is gone. It seems that he plans to hide. Only this Bruce Wayne can't even swim in the fish tank, but he has to jump into the pot."
Nick looked up through the French window at the skyline of the new city. At this time, the new city, which had just completed the integration, ushered in a new night.
It was a dark and windy night for murder. Behind the curtain woven by the treacherous waves, the swords and shadows intertwined into a shining skirt, spinning into a flower of desire full of murderous intent in the midst of the lights, wine, and women.
Gordon stood on the edge of the dance floor, holding a glass and watching coldly, while Bullock fully exerted his social butterfly instinct as a star detective, chatting and laughing with the celebrities of Gotham.
The short and fat Penguin walked to Gordon's side not very secretly. He looked at Gordon's expression and then said, "Is your daughter okay?"
"It can't be considered okay." Gordon's face sank. He knew that Barbara was safe and his daughter had been on the phone with him, but the edge of hell where he was didn't sound like a good place. Gordon wanted Barbara to come back, but Barbara refused.
Just as stubborn as his mother, Gordon thought helplessly, while Penguin raised his glass and said, "Sometimes women are so hard to understand, so I choose to stay away from them."
Gordon looked back at him and said, "Has the situation improved? Mayor, it sounds like you have already won?"
Penguin showed a mysterious smile. Regardless of the situation at the bottom, after the fusion of the two cities, Penguin did gain an advantage in the upper class.
Of course, earlier, he was still completely at a disadvantage, but the changes in the upper class were so cruel. To put it bluntly, Penguin was a winner.
First of all, his struggle with Kingpin began when Kingpin hired super criminals to destroy many important facilities of Penguin.
But Kingpin didn't play this trick very well, because Nick Fury, who is now in office, is from Schiller's universe. Nick in this universe is really tough, regardless of his ability.
He is not a frustrated sandwich who survives in the chaotic vortex of power and tries to turn things around to win a glimmer of life.
Since Schiller arrived, SHIELD has been advancing triumphantly. Nick has been in power since he took office. No one has ever questioned him. He has never been a dog or a grandson.
Although this makes him more irritable and self-willed, when working with greed, they both want to make money while standing. If we want to make money, you have to coil up if you are a dragon and lie down if you are a tiger.
The SHIELD in Schiller's universe has changed from a democratic institution caught in the middle and not pleasing to both ends to a strong government more like an oriental country. Nick has the power and has the final say.
This has led to Kingpin's open hiring of superpower criminals, which is like a slap in the face of Nick Fury, and Nick never tolerates anyone's faults.
SHIELD is running at full speed, regardless of whether you really violate the law or not. Even if the fire protection is not up to standard, they can find a reason to put you in, not to mention Kingpin's pile of illegal industries.
The drug trafficking ship was sunk directly, the docks and ports were completely blocked, the pornography industry was completely closed, and even the nightclubs and bars that could only produce a little bit of money were all closed.
Of course, Kingpin was not a piece of clay. He knew that he might not be able to beat the well-equipped SHIELD agents by force, so he immediately used his money ability and began to use the hands of the FBI and the mouth of Congress to put pressure on Nick.
Generally speaking, at this time, the two parties should sit down at the negotiation table to discuss the conditions. It would be good for everyone to take a step back.
But Nick Fury was as tough as crazy, and he was ready to kill anyone who dared to show up on the spot.
This attitude was really a bit too crazy, as if tomorrow was not going to work, and others didn't know what he was up to. Out of the tactfulness and self-preservation instinct of politicians, they all planned to observe first.
The pause caused bad luck for Kingpin. Just like what happened to Penguin, the most important thing for gangsters is not to lose face. The prestige they built through violence must be maintained through violence.
But it is really difficult for Kingpin to use any violent means against Nick. Nick has no family, no friends, and even no place to live. All his activities are limited to S.H.I.E.L.D.
Kingpin wants to send assassins to sneak into S.H.I.E.L.D., but don't forget that the Hydras just caught Owl and ate him fiercely. Now Nick Fury is the boss of Hydra. They want to worship him. Even if they are so busy, they still don't forget to allocate a group of people to protect Nick, and it is the kind of protection that they will never let down.
No assassin can beat the Hydra whose subjective initiative has been raised to this level. What's more, the Deathstroke that has entered the city has also brought great pressure to Kingpin. He really can't spare any manpower to do anything other than protecting himself.
Kingpin chose to hide and leave the stage, while good news was also coming from the business and political fields. The main reason was that the main members of the Owls were the wealthy tycoons in Gotham City. They were greatly affected by the entry of Hydra.
If they don't want to be eaten up by Hydra, they must increase their investment, but the funds are limited. If they use it to do one thing, they must tighten the others.
Judging from the current situation, the least important thing is political donations. Penguin's mayorship is uneventful, and it's okay for him to serve for another year, so many wealthy people in Gotham have tightened their investment in the next election, and Penguin has no opponents.
Penguin is quite proud. He thinks this is the result of his good management and planning. Tonight's banquet is not only a celebrity exchange, but also a celebration banquet, and he invited Gordon to show off.
Penguin walked up to talk to Bullock, because he vaguely heard Bullock mention the Wayne couple's murder case, and he had to teach this young and inexperienced detective a lesson and let him not care about things that he shouldn't care about.
But as soon as he walked to the window, there was an amazing commotion in the dance floor. Penguin turned his head and looked out the window following the people's horrified eyes-
Under the bright moonlight, a huge city descended on the top of the new city.
Sorry, I'm late because of my headache
