Just as the call ended, the detectors released by the exploration fleet responded!

"A-9, A-17, G-1, G-13, D-12 detectors responded! Unknown objects are approaching us quickly from our 11 o'clock direction!"

"They are very fast, only 3 kilometers away from us!"

"Detectors in other directions are also moving!"

"Oh my God! We are surrounded, something is approaching us on the seabed!"

When the white officer returned to the control room, the entire control room was in chaos! From the feedback of the detection signal, it can be seen that there are at least hundreds of targets surrounding them on the seabed around them!

This kind of detector is specially used to search for large underwater moving objects, so ordinary underwater creatures can't send back such a strong reaction. If you want the detector to feedback such a clear signal, at least the size of a submarine is required.

But the problem is that there is no country or force around this sea area that can trigger so many submarines to attack them!

What is the concept of hundreds of submarines? In today's world, the United States has only 73 submarines! (But they are all nuclear-powered submarines)

This is totally unreasonable! Considering the intelligence they had obtained from the military before, the people in the control room quickly got a relatively reasonable answer.

These are all sea monsters that have appeared on the San Diego!!!

One sea monster silenced the world's number one cruise ship, so what will happen to hundreds of them?

Although these exploration ships are all warships, they don't think that their torpedoes and rockets can cause much damage to those deep-sea monsters!

"Retreat immediately! Everyone retreat immediately! By the way, ask for help from the bureau! Immediately!"

The white officer responded immediately. He now knows why the previous investigation teams disappeared! Moreover, the white officer was originally a traitor of S.H.I.E.L.D. Now that he encounters something that he can't deal with, if he doesn't run away, does he really want to be loyal to S.H.I.E.L.D.?

He is just a traitor, there is no need to be so serious!

It's a pity that he still doesn't have his own name. It can be seen that he is just a dead extra.

Now that he has been given so many shots, it is already a great privilege.

He is destined to be finished!

Just when the extra officer was about to take the plane to escape, countless large whirlpools suddenly appeared on the sea in the distance, and these whirlpools surrounded the entire investigation fleet.

Then countless strange underwater aircraft emerged from the whirlpools. Those things looked metal and very technological, but there were countless translucent tentacles around these underwater aircraft, and those tentacles danced irregularly, as if they were octopuses living on the seabed.

Buzz buzz buzz.

With the appearance of those underwater aircraft, a buzzing sound came from those underwater aircraft, and then all the electronic equipment on the exploration fleet began to have various faults, and finally all of them were written off, and even the communicator with professional protection began to fail.

The entire fleet finally lost contact with the SHIELD headquarters.

The extra officer originally planned to report what he saw to his superiors through his special communicator. But his communicator also failed.

"Oh my God... What on earth did we encounter?"

Among those underwater aircraft, figures covered with exoskeleton armor jumped into the sea from the underwater aircraft and quickly approached the exploration fleet.

...

About an hour later, a handsome and tall young man wearing a handsome silver scale armor, holding a silver trident and standing on the bow of the flagship of the exploration fleet.

Soon, a crimson armored warrior came to the silver-armored man.

"Gulu Gulu... Ka Gulu, Mo Gulu."

Well... Their conversation is really hard to understand, just like the sound of a person sinking into the water and choking on water. Through the transparent visor of the red armored warrior, you can really see that the armor is full of water.

"Are our losses so great?" The silver-armored man listened to the report from his men, and his face was extremely gloomy. But unexpectedly, this silver-armored man spoke English... Although in many American TV series and movies, the whole world, no, the whole universe speaks English, but that is fiction. In the real world, who speaks English on a daily basis except for real English-speaking countries? Take Kai's previous life as an example. English was a compulsory course, but after college, how many people can really speak English.

And this man who is obviously a foreigner actually speaks fluent English... There must be a story.

But I won't expand it for now.

"Drag all the weapons and ships of mankind to the bottom of the sea. I need to crack their technology as soon as possible! Only in this way, when the final day of judgment comes, can we have an absolute advantage!" The silver-armored man said fiercely!

"Gurgle gurgle..." There was another inexplicable choking sound.

"Don't underestimate humans. Our Kraken was killed by humans, which shows that they have the strength to fight against us. We must be careful!"

It turned out that the sea monster that attacked the San Diego cruise ship was created by these Haitians. Although it is unknown why these guys released this sea monster, it seems that it is not to establish a good bilateral relationship with humans.

...

The news that SHIELD once again lost a reconnaissance fleet was finally confirmed by SHIELD three days later.

From the beginning to now, SHIELD has lost more than 30 ships of various levels, hundreds of agents and several times more auxiliary personnel in this mysterious sea. This is the biggest loss of SHIELD since World War II.

For this matter, the World Security Council has held more than five hearings for the current SHIELD Director-Nick Fury. If it weren't for Nick Fury's old boss, former SHIELD Director Alexander Pierce, who tried to protect Nick Fury. And repeatedly emphasized that it was because of the huge losses that SHIELD should find out what happened there.

Finally, Nick Fury passed the test smoothly.

"Huh... Nick, although I can convince the Council not to pursue this loss, I must say that the investigation of the sea monster must be stopped."

After the last hearing, Alexander Pierce immediately took off his mask and no longer supported Nick as firmly as he did at the hearing. Nick One-Eyed Egg Fury didn't find it strange at all. Alexander Pierce certainly needs to be biased towards him in terms of position.

Because Alexander Pierce is the former director of SHIELD, and it was he who pushed Nick to the position. The reason why he can have such a big say in the Council is because Nick is his man, and he can directly order SHIELD without going through the Council.

So from a political point of view, Alexander Pierce must support Nick Fury.

Of course, even if Alexander Pierce does not support it, it is useless. Although in name the World Security Council is the superior unit of SHIELD and has jurisdiction over SHIELD. But in fact, from the history of SHIELD's development, it can be seen that SHIELD itself is very independent.

Many sources of funds for others since their establishment are not the Council. They have their own complete sources of funds, and they have their own institutions for recruiting and training personnel.

Personnel and financial resources cannot block SHIELD, how can the Security Council really control SHIELD?

In a sense, Nick Fury is indeed the best successor of Alexander Pierce, and even better than his predecessor. He has completely controlled the situation and made SHIELD more transcendent. Let's put it this way. On the surface, only Alexander Pierce in the Security Council can command SHIELD without Nick Fury.

Of course, all this is on the surface.

Under the surface, without Nick Fury's nod, Alexander Pierce can't really command SHIELD.

And underneath this, there is a deeper truth. If Alexander Pierce nods, Nick Fury can only command half of SHIELD, or even less. But even Nick Fury doesn't know this truth.

But anyway, at this stage, Nick Fury doesn't really care about the Security Council.

But Alexander Pierce is Nick Fury's old boss anyway. Nick Fury doesn't trust anyone, and the same is true for Alexander Pierce, but everything must be viewed dialectically. Nick Fury is skeptical about everything, but the level is different.

If you have to choose a ranking to rank the people Nick Fury trusts the most, Alexander Pierce is definitely at the top. After all, Alexander Pierce had never done anything to let him down. No matter how suspicious he was, he couldn't doubt Alexander Pierce out of thin air.

"I know... we won't launch another investigation in the near future... but I still have to say that there must be very important secrets hidden there, even secrets that may affect the whole world!"

Nick Fury is an agent, not an iron-headed kid. He has sent several waves, and it would be really stupid to send more. So he also wants to slow down until he is fully prepared before going to have a look.

Agents are all like this. They have a strong voyeurism and they wish they could master all the secrets in the world. Nick Fury is known as the king of agents and has a strong desire for any secret. He knows that mastering those secrets means mastering everything!

Agents are not soldiers. They don't advocate hard-to-hard battles. They prefer to use information and intelligence to defeat their opponents.

"That's good... that's good."

Alexander Pierce breathed a sigh of relief. At this stage, Alexander Pierce and Nick Fury have the same interests. It can even be said that the stronger SHIELD is, the happier Alexander Pierce will be. He didn't really care about Nick Fury's expansion of SHIELD. Anyway, no matter what benefits Nick Fury got, they would have a share.

It can even be said that at this stage, even if the whole world wants Nick Fury to die, he, Alexander Pierce, will forcibly extend Nick Fury's life.

Then Alexander Pierce left Nick Fury's office with great satisfaction. When Alexander Pierce left, Nick Fury immediately took out an old Nokia mobile phone with all kinds of strange technological accessories on it.

It's hard to imagine that the director of SHIELD actually uses such an old-fashioned mobile phone.

"Hello... It's me. I need you to contact someone. Um, I'll send you the information. No, there's no need to use any means on him. I just want to figure out one thing. No, no, this matter... is very important. I'm not sure how much he knows. So it needs to be kept secret. Um, you go to Minnesota immediately."

"You said your current mission? That Russian? You don't need to worry about that. I will take care of it. This is indeed a very important mission. I think you can definitely find out what I want. Hmm , Hawkeye will take over, the relevant people will be identified, and you will disappear for a while.”

Nick Fury said into the phone calmly.

"Good luck, Black Widow..."

Nick hung up the phone silently and stared at the sky outside the window with one eye. No one knew what he was thinking.

…

The massacre of the Westin family made the residents of Jiade Town really nervous for a while. There have even been a lot more complaints from residents against the police department during this period. After all, a month has passed for such a serious case, and there has been no progress at all. Even worse, a body was burned due to the negligence of the police station.

This has greatly undermined residents' trust in the police department.

People are always so simple. If you can protect the people, the people will naturally support you. But if you fail to fulfill your responsibilities, then they will naturally distrust you.

Fortunately, most of the police officers in the police station are still newcomers. Everyone knows that they have just taken up their posts and still need to learn to adapt to some things. So I am willing to give a little trust. But the premise is that the Jiade Town Police Department must take real actions.

So in order to stabilize people's hearts and reassure residents. Over this period of time, the police officers in the police station were almost exhausted. For a month in a row, except for the necessary left-behind personnel, everyone else had to take turns patrolling the town. Anyway, for one purpose, anyone in the town can find the police for help as soon as possible.

A group of new police officers simply love and hate the chief's decision!

Love. Naturally, in order to mobilize everyone's enthusiasm, the police department gave all police officers a salary increase. The salary of rural police officers in the United States is generally not high, with a maximum of $30,000 a year. Of course there are exceptions, and that is where the police station is located and has money.

There are three ways to fund police departments in the United States. One is allocation by local governments, the second is private donations, and the third is fines and stolen money. (The fines issued by the police will not be handed over to institutions such as the treasury, but will be directly converted into the police station fund. The stolen money is also similar, but it is more troublesome)

Funds allocated by the government will not have a great impact on police salaries, and each locality will make adjustments based on economic conditions. The real impact on the income of police stations and police officers is the latter two reasons.

But the economy in Jiade Town is not very good, there are few wealthy people, and there are few wealthy people, so naturally few people donate money. And due to its remote location, the crime rate is low, and fines and stolen money are even more pitiful. This was also an important reason why the police in the town at that time collaborated with the gangs.

They are poor.

Now Kai has directly adjusted his salary. Each police officer will receive a monthly subsidy of about $500 to $1,000 based on performance.

This is no small sum of money.

With money, those newcomers are naturally willing to work hard.

Perhaps because of this, the atmosphere in the police station is quite good and everyone is willing to do things. It was less than the off-duty time, and Kai couldn't leave the police station. He needed to stay at the police station to interrogate some criminal suspects.

There is no way, most of the people in the police station are new recruits, and many of them have not passed the formal examination. Strictly speaking, they can only be regarded as auxiliary police officers. Yes, the United States also has auxiliary police. Generally speaking, auxiliary police are only responsible for basic social security. In some major criminal cases, auxiliary police are not allowed to take action.

It is also not allowed to interrogate prisoners, but it can assist in interrogation.

Although Kai is the boss of the local police station, there are more than thirty people in a police station, including clerks, and it is impossible for Kai to put them all on duty immediately.

Originally, according to the laws here in the United States, it was very difficult to become a police officer. It requires one year of training, and then a written test and various skill tests. Very tedious. Kai can only do more and guide them.

"What's going on?" Kai had just mediated a case with two newcomers about a fight between two neighbors because their dog defecated on the lawn. He walked non-stop to the next interrogation room. He picked up the case brief from a police officer.

"Susie Cabell, female, 17 years old, high school student. At nine o'clock tonight, she stole from the supermarket and was discovered by the clerk. She also injured the clerk."
