I Have A Good Opinion In Marvel

Chapter 183 The second stage

Adirondack Mountains, New York State.

Nearly thirty miles south of Mount Maxi, a large, brightly-lit research facility is particularly eye-catching under the night.

This is a research base operated under the name of dark energy research jointly conducted by S.H.I.E.L.D, NASA, and Pegasus Engineering.

At the moment, in a large laboratory under the base, a bald middle-aged man in a plaid shirt is directing his team to conduct research on the Tesseract, which emits a faint blue light.

“Hey! Be careful, I don’t want to watch the lab blow up again…”

“Inject energy and expand protection measures to minimize interference and radiation!”

…

If Leon were here, he would definitely be able to call out the identity of the bald middle-aged: Erik Shavig!

Since the New Mexico incident, the astrophysicist has been invited by Fury to S.H.I.E.L.D to conduct research and development on Tesseract.

The appearance of Thor makes Erik Shavig even more fascinated by mysterious things.

Being able to study magical objects like Tesseract up close makes him want to plunge into the research work immediately.

He even resigned from his position as a professor at the university and moved directly into this research base!

Now, after months of tireless research day and night, Erik Shavig’s research team has achieved initial results…

While the scientists were earnestly operating on various instrument panels, an untimely voice sounded in Shavig’s ear:

“Dr. Shavig, how is the progress?”

Erik Shavig turned around and saw the SHIELD Director—Nick Fury, who was always dressed in black.

When Shavig saw Fury, he couldn’t help taking a step forward, pointing to the Tesseract fixed on the ring frame, and explaining, “It’s going well.”

“At present, we have initially mastered how to stabilize the energy of Tesseract and perform experimental manipulations. Next, as long as we further stabilize the energy of the Rubik’s Cube and keep the energy peak at a certain value, we can enter the next stage of the experiment. .”

Hearing that everything was going well, Fury, who didn’t know much about science, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked, “So, when can the second phase start?”

Shavig glanced at the Tesseract, which exudes brilliant light all the time, his eyes flashed a little drunk, and he continued:

“Director, don’t worry… the energy weapons you sent over last time, we still need some time to deconstruct and analyze. After that, we can start to manufacture prototypes…”

After chatting with Shavig and getting a rough idea of ​​the progress of the weaponization of the Rubik’s Cube, Fury turned his one-eyed one and looked at Hawkeye, who came to him at some unknown time.

“Barton agent, continue to keep an eye on the situation here, and don’t let anyone other than Dr. Shavig’s team approach the Rubik’s Cube.”

“Understood, sir!”

After staying at the research base for a while, Fury, who was busy, took a helicopter and returned to Washington.

There, there are still a lot of things waiting for him to deal with…

. . . . . .

“I just went to the base. According to Dr. Shavig’s analysis, the progress of the Rubik’s Cube research has gone well, and it should be possible to enter the second stage soon.”

“That’s good, once the second phase of development is completed, the tragedy of the New Mexico incident may not happen again…”

Located in a large conference room in the main building of the Trident headquarters, Fury dressed in a black windbreaker stands in front of five virtual projection screens, reporting to members of the World Security Council from all over the world.

On the central screen is one of the chiefs of HYDRA, Gideon Malik.

As a global intelligence agency, S.H.I.E.L.D has branches all over the world.

Because of its extensive law enforcement authority and scope, and the power it holds, in order to prevent S.H.I.E.L.D from interfering in the politics of other countries, governments around the world have established a World Security Council to supervise various actions of S.H.I.E.L.D.

In addition, the various appropriations and funding of S.H.I.E.L.D are all determined by the Security Council.

Definitely, the research project of Tesseract was carried out only after the approval of the Security Council.

Fury is naturally obligated to report on the progress of the project to these funders…

Tesseract’s research progress is just one of the agendas of Fury’s meeting with the Security Council today.

Suddenly, Fury looked at Gideon Malik on the center screen with that one eye, and said:

“The Avengers project I handed in, you have been discussing for a long time…”

The subtext of this sentence is obviously, “Can you do it, let me know!”

Hearing that, the British representative of the Security Council, a middle-aged woman, pondered for a moment, and then gave an answer:

“Regarding this, after a long period of discussion, we finally believe that this Avengers plan does not meet our current needs.”

“So, the board of directors decided to suspend this plan and put it on hold for the time being.”

Hearing this answer, Fury didn’t feel too surprised.

The buttocks determine the head, different angles, there are different views.

From his perspective, this emergency team composed of people with extraordinary Ability can respond quickly to various emergencies;

However, in the view of the Security Council, this is just Fury’s selfish act, wanting to form a private armed force for S.H.I.E.L.D under the banner of “protecting world peace”…

I don’t know how many times the board of directors has seen such tricks in the past ten years.

Using various reasons or excuses to apply for funding and action funds from the council is Fury’s always strong point.

After all, the cost of forming an emergency team is not a small amount.

Do you want a special vehicle?

Weaponry and even the logistics team, right?

It’s never cheap to form elite troops…

At this stage, they have invested a lot of resources and money in the development of Tesseract, and they are not willing to invest money in a project that they think is of little use.

What’s more, with the energy weapons derived from Tesseract, is there any emergency team needed? !

This is one of the reasons why the Security Council will shelve the “Avenger Project”.

At this time, Gideon Malik, who was on the central screen, followed the words of the British representative, and continued:

“At this stage, we hope that you will continue to focus on the development and research of Tesseract. As long as we have the Rubik’s Cube weapon in the second stage, we don’t need any Avengers anymore, do you think so? Director Nick Fury…”

Looking at Gideon Malik’s slightly old face in majesty, Fury rolled his eyes and said solemnly:

“I see…”
