Two hours later, at the S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Dark Matter Energy Research Institute.
The research institute covered a vast area and was surrounded by buildings. There was also a radio radar around the research institute's experimental building for cosmic observation and to adjust the intensity of the gamma-rays.
It was late at night, but the research institute complex was brightly lit. The researchers were busy packing equipment and evacuating with the help of agents and security forces.
The pitch-black steel bird flew across the mountain range and arrived at the building complex that was crisscrossed with lights. It was a black assault helicopter with red indicator lights flashing under the spinning propellers.
Military off-road vehicles and heavy transport vehicles lined up on the road below it, their headlights piercing the night sky like lightsabers.
"Attention all personnel. The retreat order has been confirmed. Please immediately take the designated vehicle to evacuate. I repeat, this is not a drill…"
The clear and loud retreat order was repeated over and over again through every broadcast in the building complex. Fully armed soldiers and civil servants in suits followed the order and quickly evacuated.
Phil Coulson was wearing sunglasses. He crossed his hands in front of him and waited for the helicopter to land.
The helicopter landed shakily in the middle of the tarmac. The hatch opened, and a tall, black-haired woman came out first, followed by the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., Nick Fury, who jumped down from the hatch with a cold expression.
"How bad is the situation now?"
Director Fei, whose face and figure were almost merged into the darkness, tidied up his windbreaker and looked at Phil Coulson, who was running up to him. He asked in a deep voice with a dark face that was difficult to distinguish.
"Sir, the worst case scenario." Phil Coulson took off his black sunglasses and said helplessly,""Because we have no idea what happened.”
Hearing this, Nick Fury's face darkened, and he immediately led his entourage to the elevator.
The elevator went all the way to the underground laboratory, and Phil Coulson tried his best to compress the time during the journey and report the situation to his superior, Nick Fury, in as concise a language as possible.
"Just four hours ago, the Tesseract released a burst of energy.”
"Why is this happening? Did Dr. Banner do some test?”Nick Fury asked with a frown.
He was the one who led the development of the Tesseract, and no details or progress could be hidden from him. No matter what kind of test the scientists involved wanted to do, they should first report to him and seek his consent.
Then, he would contact the other departments that might be involved in the experiment.
As Bruce Banner, who was personally invited by Nick Fury to study the Rubik's Cube, although he had the highest command in the experiment, he still had to follow this principle.
And because of Hulk, Nick Fury even sent Agent Barton, codenamed Eagle Eye, to monitor Banner's every move.
"No, Dr. Banner didn't do the test. He wasn't even there.”Phil Coulson said seriously,""It was triggered automatically. The Tesseract has activated on its own."
Phil Coulson's words made Nick Fury and Agent Maria Hill's hearts sink again.
"What level have you reached?" Nick Fury continued to ask. He had to understand more about the situation before he met Dr. Bruce Banner Selvig and heard his explanation.
"It's still rising! According to Dr. Banner's estimation ten minutes ago, its energy was enough to destroy the entire base.”Phil Coulson looked helpless.""So we had no choice but to order the evacuation.”
"How long will it take for everyone to evacuate? I mean our people."
Nick Fury asked with a frown.
Ever since he learned the " truth " about S.H.I.E.L.D. a year ago, Fei Qiu had been secretly developing his own forces and trying to eliminate the Hydra hidden in the surroundings.
Fei Qiu's plan was not complicated. First, he would list the Hydra members in S.H.I.E.L.D., and then try to clean up Trident's headquarters quietly. Then, he would spread out and wipe out the other branches one by one.
He didn't arrest Pierce and the other high-ranking officials immediately. He had held back because he wanted to preserve the vitality of S.H.I.E.L.D. after the purge so that the organization wouldn't be disbanded.
Unfortunately, judging from the current situation, it would take a long time for S.H.I.E.L.D. to be reborn.
This was something that could not be helped. After all, Hydra had been growing in S.H.I.E.L.D. like a blood-sucking parasite for decades. Its true power could be said to be intertwined and spread throughout the entire Earth.
Before they were ready to fall out with each other, Nick Fury's purge plan had little effect, and there were still a large number of Hydra members holding important positions in S.H.I.E.L.D.
For example, in this secret base, although the core members were all " allies " that Fei Qiu had personally selected, in order not to arouse the Hydra's vigilance, he still chose a lot of Hydra to blend into the peripheral and security teams.
Phil Coulson looked around and estimated the time in his heart. He replied,""We should be able to evacuate within half an hour."
"Faster." Nick Fury glared at Coulson, and the latter immediately left after receiving the order to speed up the evacuation.
In addition, Maria Hill, who had come along, was also sent by Fei Qiu to transfer the " prototype of the second phase of the experiment ", which was the energy weapon that S.H.I.E.L.D. wanted to replicate the energy weapon that Hydra had developed using the Tesseract during World War II.
After a while, the elevator descended to the lowest level of the base. Nick Fury led some fully armed agents out and entered a spacious laboratory.
"What's going on, Dr. Banner?”
Nick Fury strode into the laboratory and asked a curly-haired man with a serious tone.
