Chapter 238: Spoils of War
After Erin and the others cleaned up the battlefield and cleared away the traces they left on the battlefield, they quickly evacuated the scene through the retreat route prepared in advance.
At this moment, Erin heard the sound of police sirens getting closer and closer.
Bucky, who was standing by, looked at the time on his watch and said sarcastically:
"This is the first time I've seen the police arrive at the scene so quickly."
"This is normal. After all, Alexander Pierce is the Minister of the World Security Council on the surface, and he also has an important political position in the international community. If such a big shot is attacked, the police station will be too active unless they don't want the position under their buttocks."
After making a joke, Erin and Bucky accelerated and took people away.
Not long after Erin and the others left.
A senior official of the New York Police Department who lived nearby personally led the team to the villa area where Alexander Pierce was.
After the special forces arrived at the scene, they quickly got out of the armored vehicle and occupied the advantageous position at the scene as soon as possible.
After the special forces confirmed that there was no threat around, a senior New York Police Department official wearing a gold-blue police badge with four stars on it got off the armored vehicle.
As soon as he got off the armored vehicle.
The senior New York Police Department official was completely shocked by the scene in front of him.
At this moment, Alexander Pierce's villa no longer had the splendor of the past, but was comparable to the battlefields in the Middle East.
The battlefield filled with gunpowder was littered with corpses.
Although it cannot be said that corpses were everywhere and blood was flowing like a river, it was almost the same.
All the police officers who arrived at the scene and saw this scene were almost nervous to the extreme.
After taking a deep breath, the gray-haired senior officer of the New York Police Department, Mooney, immediately ordered the captain of the special forces team beside him: "Ryan, lead the people to rush in. We must confirm the life or death of Chief Pierce as soon as possible. If he is still alive, save him at all costs. If he is dead, let those daring guys be buried with Chief Pierce!"
"Yes!"
After responding.
Captain Ryan, who was wrapped in the special forces combat uniform, made a gesture to the people behind him, and then quickly led a dozen special forces members to rush towards the villa in Alexander.
While watching Ryan lead his men to advance, Mooney said to his assistant behind him: "Send the message back to the police station, immediately send people to block all nearby traffic arteries, and investigate all suspicious elements."
"If...if Minister Pierce really has an accident, we must not let the murderer escape."
"By the way, Nick Fury of SHIELD was assassinated not long ago, and now Minister Pierce has just taken over the post of acting director of SHIELD and was attacked. I suspect there is some unknown connection between them. You should immediately send someone to rule this matter to SHIELD and the World Security Council, and let them send people to jointly investigate."
"Remember...this pot must not be borne by our New York Police Department alone!"
At the end, Mooney, whose hair was a little gray, shot out a sharp look in his eyes.
"Yes!"
After answering, Mooney's assistant took out his mobile phone and made calls one after another without stopping.
As Mooney's assistant, he knew the underlying meaning of Director Mooney's words very well.
Under Mooney's order, the police force of the New York Police Department immediately turned to full force.
The unprecedented full force of the New York Police Department caused some troubles for Ailin and others who had not yet completely left the police blockade area.
Fortunately.
With the help of Ailin's divination, they avoided most of the troubles. Even when they were questioned by the New York Police Department when they left the blockade area, Ailin used his mental force field ability to easily hypnotize several police officers who were questioning, and then dealt with it.
Just when Ailin had just left the blockade area of the New York Police Department.
Ryan, the special forces captain who had rushed into the villa before, ran out in a hurry.
Seeing Ryan's hurried appearance, Mooney suddenly had an ominous premonition. Before Ryan ran to him, Mooney asked, "How is it, have you found Minister Pierce?"
"Director, the villa has been bombed many times, and many bodies are unrecognizable and difficult to identify. We haven't found Minister Pierce's body yet, but it is very likely that Minister Pierce's body is among them."
"Because... there is no living person in the villa, and according to our observation, the murderer had ended the battle before we arrived, and they even had time to erase some traces. In this case, Minister Pierce is unlikely to survive."
"And... In addition to Minister Pierce, we also found the body of a cardinal in the villa."
After hearing Ryan's words, the elderly Director Mooney suddenly felt dizzy.
"Not good, the director fainted, come quickly..."
On the other side.
After leaving the police blockade area.
Ailin and his team quickly returned to Hell's Kitchen in batches using the transportation they had prepared in advance.
After returning to Hell's Kitchen.
The special team members who had just experienced a fierce battle greeted some of their friends as usual.
They chatted with those who needed to chat, and trained with those who needed to train.
Even after get off work, they had agreed on where to go for a drink.
It seemed that they had not fought a battle just now.
In fact, for them, there was indeed no battle tonight.
The Miracle Group has not grown into a towering tree that can shelter from the wind and rain.
In order to prevent these people from accidentally leaking tonight's actions.
Before returning.
Eileen specially hypnotized them with hypnosis.
Let them forget the battle tonight.
Of course, as a reward for their desperate efforts tonight, Eileen will give them a generous reward with other reasons.
After returning to the Miracle Building.
After asking Eileen for the [Witch] potion, Bucky took a long vacation and left the Miracle Building.
Watching Bucky's back disappearing into the night.
A hint of inevitability flashed in Eileen's eyes.
Eileen knew that when Bucky appeared in front of her again, she would really put aside the past and become a real [Witch].
I don't know what Bucky will look like after becoming a witch.
After a flash of inexplicable expectation flashed through his mind, Aylin shook his head slightly and left Hell's Kitchen and returned to Chinatown.
For Aylin, this battle.
While dealing with Alexander Pierce and avenging "himself" who had been attacked by Hydra, it also solved Bucky's knot and gave him another powerful subordinate.
Of course.
What made Aylin most happy was that this battle also brought him a lot of unexpected gains.
At this time, Aylin couldn't wait to check the spoils he had gained this time.
However, before Aylin entered the Libra space, he unexpectedly received a unified call from Gwen.
After confirming the relationship.
The relationship between Aylin and Gwen became much closer.
Even the indispensable phone calls between lovers, the two of them unconsciously started.
After the unified phone call ended.
Aylin, whose mood was inexplicably calmed down a lot, entered the Libra space again.
After arriving at the Libra space.
Aylin took out the brass ring that he had taken from Alexander Pierce's hand.
When Ailin took out the brass ring, the shadow of the scale hovering over the long river of fate emitted a white light, which shone on the brass ring.
Ding!
Accompanied by a prompt sound, information about the brass ring appeared in Ailin's mind.
[Ding! ]
[Appraisal completed: Congratulations to the host for obtaining the lucky ring. ]
[Lucky ring: A daring person hunted the lucky goddess of a certain pantheon and forged a ring with her divinity and blood. Anyone who wears this ring will have extraordinary luck. ]
[Note: Although every host who wears this ring has extraordinary luck, the strange thing is that every host of this ring eventually cannot escape the fate of death. It seems that... from the beginning of forging, this ring born from killing the god has carried a curse in the dark. 】
【From a certain perspective, this extraordinary luck is also a kind of misfortune. 】
Hmm?
Forged with the godhead and blood of the goddess of luck?
Ailin looked at the brass ring on his hand, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
He originally thought that this lucky ring was blessed by a goddess of luck.
But unexpectedly, its origin is greater than he imagined.
Of course, its side effects are also much greater than he imagined.
Seeing the hint in the notes that "every owner died a violent death", Ailin inexplicably thought of Alexander Pierce, who was stuffed into his mouth by a grenade and was blown into pieces of meat, and even his whole body was not left.
With this side effect, I don’t know whether this lucky ring should be called a lucky ring or a doom ring.
Of course.
Although the side effects of the lucky ring make Ailin a little afraid.
But at the same time.
Its effect is undoubtedly powerful.
Many times, luck itself is a manifestation of power.
After seeing the incredible luck of Alexander Pierce, Aylin would not underestimate this kind of luck.
If it weren't for this lucky ring, Alexander Pierce, as an ordinary person, would have been killed by his clone long ago.
Even this time he personally took action.
Alexander Pierce also persisted for a long time in his attack.
If it weren't for Aylin's many means, and the huge difference in strength between him and Aylin, if someone else met Alexander Pix, he might really be overturned by his weird luck.
As the leader of Hydra, Alexander Pierce has a lot of good things on him, and with the ability of the lucky ring, no one knows what the final outcome will be.
Let's not talk about anything else.
The energy gun he took out at the end made Aylin feel a lot of threats.
Thinking of the energy gun.
Aylin took out the spoils, including the energy gun, from the ring of greed and put them under the scale of fate for identification.
In addition to the lucky ring, Ailin obtained a total of three items in Alexander Peakes' villa.
Under the white light of the scales of fate, the information about the three things soon appeared in Ailin's mind.
[Energy gun: Dr. Zora successfully developed an epoch-making weapon by extracting the energy of the space gem in the cosmic cube and converting it into stable energy to fill the energy clip. ]
[Note: Although the firing rate of the energy gun is not fast due to imperfect technology, the powerful energy of the space gem contained in it can easily break the defense of an armored vehicle and turn it into a pile of scrap metal. Of course, while having such power, please remember that the energy clip of this energy gun only stores the energy of 5 energy bullets, and because of the imperfect storage technology, after decades of energy dissipation, the energy stored in this energy gun can only be fired three times. ]
Looking at the energy gun in his hand, which is somewhat similar to the Ruger pistol, but has a much cooler appearance.
Ailin shook his head slightly.
It was because Zora developed these energy weapons too late, and there were sons of the times like Captain America in the Federation at that time.
Otherwise, if these energy weapons and energy tanks in Hydra were popularized during World War II.
Erin really couldn't imagine how they could lose the battle with these weapons and equipment.
After all, energy weapons.
Even in this era, it is a high-tech product that cannot be popularized.
Of course, although this energy gun is powerful, its endurance is a problem.
After three bullets were used up, Erin didn't know where to replenish energy.
After turning his right hand and making a beautiful gun flower, Erin put the energy gun into the ring of greed.
In addition to the energy gun.
Two other magical items that Erin found in the basement of Alexander Pierce's villa.
They are a music box and an oil painting.
[Chocolate's Music Box: A music box that carries Chocolate's good wishes. As long as it is played once in front of it, this music box can reproduce any sound. ]
[Note: The music box can only store eight different sounds. ]
[Features: In order to satisfy Chocolate's wish, please play a different piece of music in front of it every week. (Please note that these music cannot be repeated within eight months, otherwise, the unsatisfied music box will bombard your ears crazily.)]
This [Chocolate's Music Box] is now used as a brainwashing tool by Alexander Pix. This music box stores eight lullabies carefully recorded by hypnotists.
As long as it is matched with a special environment, these eight lullabies can hypnotize the will of an ordinary person.
Looking at the music box in his hand, Ailin seemed to understand why those Hydra warriors were so loyal.
