Chapter 905 Skrull's Bad Luck (Part 1)

Ever since Nick Fury, disguised as a Skrull, and other superheroes officially took the stage, they found that things were not as they expected.

Originally, the Skrull leader disguised as Nick Fury wanted to obtain the identity of the director of SHIELD and a superhero, and he wanted to use the resources and connections in the hands of these people. However, he had just become the director of SHIELD for a few days when reality gave him a head-on blow.

According to Nick Fury's own memory, he has used various loopholes in SHIELD over the years to defraud a large amount of funds and build many secret bases. The locations of these secret bases are spread all over the United States, and only he and the core agents know the specific locations.

The things in the warehouse are even more useful. In addition to the strategically located aerospace carrier, there are also a large number of heavy equipment that can be found in human society. These are things that ordinary people cannot touch, and this is very important to the Skrulls.

As one of the three major empires in the universe, the Skrull Empire can be said to have a troubled fate.

They were born in the Andromeda Galaxy, where they developed civilization to a very high stage. Unfortunately, their home planet was eaten by the Devourer of Planets, so they were forced to move.

The empire was not peaceful, and there were often civil wars. After a great chaos broke out, many Skrulls fled their country. The one who came to Earth followed the ancient religious fables and believed that the Earth was their place of revival, so they wanted to control the Earth.

Their initial actions were very effective. Many Skrulls mixed in with the agents of SHIELD. They came into contact with superheroes, and at the same time, in the process of contact, they completed the preparations for copying their appearance and abilities.

After the superheroes died one after another, the leader of the Skrulls realized that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Their copying ability is not without flaws. First of all, they must contact the target for a period of time. They don't have to be in close contact, but they can't be too far away from the target for a period of time, otherwise the reading will fail. Once it fails, they have to start reading from the beginning again.

Another point is that the upper limit of their copied abilities will be weakened. If they want to fight the original owner, there will be a high probability of failure, especially for abilities that tend to be magical and mental.

Another important point is that the same target can only be copied and imitated by the same Skrull. There is no way to make more than a dozen Skrulls imitate the same ability at the same time.

Moreover, there is a cooling time for changing appearance and ability, which is about ten years. However, the Skrulls are not immortal. Their lifespan is about 220 years, which is only two to three times longer than that of humans.

In other words, they must also carefully choose the object of copying, otherwise they will have to wait ten years to change the object of imitation, which is very fatal.

This raises a problem, that is, if they want to go on stage as the other party, they must make the other party disappear, but because the ability has been weakened, they can't beat the other party at all.

There is no way for more than a dozen people to copy the same powerful ability and then engage in a group fight, and there is no way to copy powerful abilities first and then imitate superheroes with useful social identities, because that requires a long cooling time and manpower will be even more insufficient.

Moreover, a group fight would make a lot of noise. They want to quietly infiltrate into human society and control the upper class of the entire society, not to fight with all of humanity.

Having lived in human society for so long, all the Skrulls understand how suspicious and xenophobic this race is.

They even divide their own people into countless areas and exclude each other. If they really knew that there was a terrible alien that could completely copy their appearance and abilities and was planning to invade the earth, the Skrulls would never have peace.

The Skrull leader disguised as Nick Fury originally wanted to start with ordinary people who were easier to start with, such as core agents like Coulson and Hill, to seize an opportunity to kill them completely, and then slowly infiltrate them, and finally attack Nick Fury.

In fact, they did not think of killing superheroes themselves, one because the noise was too loud, and the other because they could not afford the loss.

Humans have so many superheroes and mutants, and the number of Skrulls coming to Earth was not large to begin with. Later, some internal divisions occurred. Now the faction of the Skrull leader disguised as Nick Fury has less than 20 people in total.

If there is a head-on conflict with superheroes, whether it is Captain America or Spider-Man, even if they may kill them, they can at least take away one or two members of the Skrulls. These superheroes just don't kill people, not aliens. They can't accept such a loss of manpower.

With such a mood, they kept waiting for the result. Unexpectedly, the huge pie falling from the sky directly knocked them out.

Nick Fury died, and the three most popular superheroes in New York also died.

How could such a good opportunity be missed? The fake Nick Fury took office and was completely trapped in this vortex.

He wanted to use the various resources that Nick had accumulated over the years to develop the Skrulls' own bases and weapons, but within two days of taking office, bases across the United States began to explode one after another.

Hydra seemed to suddenly remember that SHIELD was an enemy they could not escape, and the Nazis seemed to recall the glorious days of the past. This time, they wanted to do something more glorious than ever before, that is, to invade the American continent.

In just two days, more than 80 of the more than 120 bases in the country were attacked. In just one day, the damage rate exceeded 40%, and the lost resources could only be calculated in terms of sky-high prices and huge quantities.

The real Nick stored these resources for strategic reserves. When the solar system development and construction plan was in full swing, he was not in a hurry to use the materials and equipment he had accumulated.

He was not in a hurry, but the fake Nick was in a hurry.

The fake Nick was eager to put these materials and equipment into new production to support the Skrulls' revival. He thought that the first thing he would do after taking office was to count all the materials and then use them. As a result, he did count them, but all he counted were losses.

At the same time, this incident also made the fake Nick fall into deep self-doubt, because Nick Fury's memory told him that only Nick knew the location of about half of the bases, and a small half of the bases could only be opened with Nick's authorization.

This was not the information he heard, but the memory he read directly, so it should be completely true and reliable.

So, how did the base that only Nick knew and had never authorized anyone else be found and blown up by Hydra?

Any intelligent life, once trapped in the vortex of doubting its own memory, will almost never escape. Once they find that there is a gap in their memory, they will doubt that there are gaps everywhere.

What's more, Nick knew that he was fake, so he was even more guilty.

This is also the problem encountered by other fake superheroes. Their appearance disguise is perfect, and their ability disguise is almost flawless. The only flaw is their psychology.

The biggest flaw of fakes is that they know they are fakes.

If a person knows that he is fake, he will inevitably feel guilty, and his behavioral logic will be forced to add a command that must be executed, that is, "try to prove that he is real."

In the game of Werewolf, the biggest weakness of the werewolf is that he knows he is a werewolf.

Human memory and thinking inevitably drive their behavior. After knowing that they are undiscoverable, they must take many actions to cover up their identities.

These actions are actually contrary to normal behavioral logic. In most cases, normal people do not need to prove who they are, and if they are not in a game state where everyone proves themselves, this abnormality will be more obvious.

And the performance is that superheroes must be superheroes, otherwise they will feel guilty and feel that they may be exposed.

So, in the next few days, several other fake superheroes encountered great troubles.

The biggest problem with Spider-Man is that the Spider-Man played by Peter died in public view. Neither S.H.I.E.L.D. nor the government could announce to the public that someone could be resurrected, so the fake Spider-Man naturally became the second generation Spider-Man.

Everyone knows that the white moonlight is invincible. If the white moonlight is out of reach, it will always be the brightest and most beautiful moon hanging in the sky, but if it is still alive, it will become a white rice grain, mediocre and ordinary, and annoying.

Human nature is that what you can't get is always the best.

Spider-Man is not a perfect superhero. When he was alive, there were no shortage of doubts about him.

On the forum, some people like to question his combat methods, some criticize his words and deeds, and some maliciously want to investigate his background.

But as soon as Spider-Man died, he immediately became the benchmark for superheroes.

In the descriptions of some people on the forum, he is a very great young man, smart, wise, kind, strong, able to reach the moon in the sky and catch turtles in the five oceans, punch criminals, kick evil forces, use knives, guns, sticks, axes, hooks and forks, he can do everything, but he can't live.

On the contrary, the so-called second-generation Spider-Man that exists now makes people dislike him everywhere.

Some people say that he must create a uniform different from the first-generation Spider-Man, otherwise he is just riding on the popularity of the original Spider-Man and making money from the dead.

Spider-Man's fans also expressed strong resistance. They will never accept someone who looks exactly like the hero in their minds, but is not as good as him. After several days of criticism from newspapers and streaming media, the fake Spider-Man finally compromised.

He changed himself into a new battle suit, which is different from the previous Spider-Man, but also very handsome. The original blue turned into black, and the red became deeper, which looked a little sharper.

But soon, this uniform attracted new doubts. Many people said that this color was too evil and did not fit Spider-Man's young and energetic image.

So, the fake Spider-Man had to adjust his image again. He changed the blue to a lighter blue and kept the red unchanged, so that he looked more sunny.

But soon, someone attacked his image as frivolous and exaggerated, like a toy in a toy store, giving people a feeling of being unreliable.

In addition to the uniform image, his behavior was constantly attacked.

He imitated the lively and talkative style of the original Spider-Man, and was soon described as an unlearned, greasy and disgusting imitator. But if he was silent and very cold in front of the camera, people said that he had lost Spider-Man's previous friendly image.

In just a few days, this fake Spider-Man was close to collapse.

He was originally a young officer with almost no social experience. If you convert his age, he is about the same as Peter now. Most of the time on Earth, he worked in S.H.I.E.L.D. and never came into contact with ordinary society.

He never knew that humans were such a terrible creature.

He didn't realize that human nature is double standards. When they hate someone, everything he does is wrong.
