The Umbrella Company of Marvel World

Chapter 161 The Crater Controversy

The corner of Steve's mouth twitched, and he was speechless with Nick Fury.

In the end, Nick Fury waved his hand helplessly, and sighed softly: "It's okay, captain, this hammer is not a good thing..."

Anyway, since the hammers are all cracked now, it's useless to say anything, that's all Nick Fury can say.

Steve picked up the hammer head that was split in two from the ground, and looked at the section. It was ordinary steel, far from his own Adamant alloy shield.

So much so that I just touched the shield with it, and it shattered.

Steve curled his lips. If he swapped his shield with the hammer and appeared in the crater, it would still match the force of the crater.

Steve thought for a while, then suddenly asked: "Director, is this hammer...could it be a counterfeit?"

"Uh...it's also possible..." Nick Fury said after a moment of pondering.

In fact, he had doubts for a long time. It is really unreasonable that there is only a stainless steel hammer in the crater that can cause such a huge change in the energy field.But there has been no evidence.

At this moment, the door of the underground research institute opened again.

A woman with a graceful figure walked in, her demeanor was outstanding.

With a document in her hand, she came to Nick Fury's side and handed it to him: "Director, the satellite surveillance captured that the Umbrella Company sent people to surround the crater."

"Oh? Is there such a thing?" Nick Fury raised his eyebrows.

He took the information from Hill, and in the pictures taken by the satellite, he could vaguely see that some engineering vehicles and staff had gathered around the crater in New Mexico.

They've even erected a fence around the crater and set up a makeshift base.

Steve also walked to Nick Fury's side at this time, he glanced at the satellite image, and said aloud: "Director, it seems that you have been put together..."

Nick Fury's expression became gloomy. If there is really nothing special in this crater, why would people from Umbrella appear around the crater?
In his impression, Edward is not the kind of person who would idle away and have fun, and it must be profitable for him to do so, Nick Fury thought to himself.

Thinking of this, Nick Fury turned to Coulson and said, "Agent Coulson, I need to trouble you. You have to take some people to New Mexico to see what the umbrella company is doing there."

"No problem, Director." Coulson agreed without hesitation.I am one of the best model workers in S.H.I.E.L.D., and I will definitely be the first to catch up with the task assigned by the director.

However, Coulson looked a little worried.He thought of the mysterious woman who was following Edward, who could manipulate strange energy.

If she was also stationed around the crater, and she just took a few agents there, she might not be able to get close to the crater and be driven back.

As if aware of Coulson's worries, Nick Fury said immediately: "Agent Coulson, don't worry, I will let Steve follow you too."

"Will you agree, Captain?" Nick Fury looked at Steve and said with a smile.

Although the tone was inquiring, the look in his eyes was almost like an order.

Steve shrugged, "I can go."

"But, Pierce doesn't need me to monitor?" Steve asked.

After all, Nick Fury had always placed him in the Tricurved Wing Building to guard against Pierce.

"I'll let Hawkeye replace you." Nick Fury had already prepared for this.

"Let you stay at SHIELD headquarters for such a long time, this time you go out to perform a mission, Captain, you can also take it as a side trip." Nick Fury continued.

"Forget it, I can't enjoy it." Steve muttered, picked up his shield, turned and left the underground laboratory.

……

……

On the S.H.I.E.L.D. side, when Nick Fury was arranging manpower and preparing to go to New Mexico again, in a small town in New Mexico, Edward finally waited for the person he needed.

The helicopter slowly landed on the helipad on the roof of a villa.The hatch opened and two people got off the plane.

Edward smiled lightly at the two people in front of him and said, "Everyone, welcome to New Mexico."

The two people who came here this time, one is the current person in charge of No. 4 Industrial Park, Ivan.

The other is Scott who came with the Hornets suit.

Now [-] meters deep in the crater, only Dr. Eric is doing research on Thor's Hammer there.Edward called Ivan over to see if he could come up with something on Thor's Hammer.

In fact, he had already asked Ivan to come over the day before yesterday, and yesterday he and Scott arrived here on the same plane.

"Boss, didn't you say you want me to bring some wasp shells? I've already prepared them." At this time, Scott stepped forward and said.

He took out a black glass box from his pocket.After opening it, several wasps were placed inside.

But they only have the outer shell, and the flesh and blood inside have been removed by Scott with a scalpel, and now only the outer skin is left.

This is Edward's request to Scott. Now with these skins, Scott puts on the wasp suit and shrinks himself, so that he can fit into these wasp skins and disguise himself as a real bee.

In this way, when Loki descends to Earth, he can approach him more covertly.

Using the illusion of a bee, he collected the blood of the frost giant on his body.

Seeing this, Edward nodded in satisfaction.But after thinking about it, he still asked, "Mr. Scott, how is your ability to adapt now that you put on this suit?"

Edward was asking Scott about his proficiency in using the Hornets suit.

Scott replied with some confidence: "Boss, I don't think there is any problem with myself anymore!"

"I can even demonstrate it for you later," Scott added.

Edward nodded with a chuckle, since that's the case, that's great.

Everyone turned around and walked downstairs. On the stairs, Ivan walked beside Edward and told him something.It is about a batch of whiplash devices ordered by the US military.

After those biochemical weapons were purchased by the U.S. military, Justin highly praised the whip device developed by Ivan—of course, it was also named as Hammer Industries, but Ivan didn't care too much about these things. Edward was also noncommittal, as long as the funds were received in the end, it didn't matter if Justin was bragging about the sky.
