Marvel With Zanpakutou

Chapter 232: The Remains

"What about the Thunder Squad?"

Nick Fury was obviously very impatient. He asked, "Are you ready?"

All the members of the Thunder Squad were elites from various special forces. They were special combat squads that had gathered S. H. I. E. L. D.'s black technology.

If it wasn't for the Roaring Commandos carrying out 'salvage' missions in the Arctic, I'm afraid this mission would not have fallen on the Thunder Squad.

"The Thunder Squad has assembled." A fully armed soldier stepped forward and said, "A total of eighteen combat personnel are waiting for the director's instructions."

"Barton, Natasha, the two of you are in charge of the command team." Fury nodded slightly and said in a deep voice, "Remember, your mission is to destroy the source of the pollution at all costs!"

"Yes!"

The eighteen elite warriors and two top-notch agent slid down from the crack that had been split open on the ground. After hanging up the rope, they slid down one after another.

They did not descend very fast and maintained a three-three formation.

While one person descended, the other two remained vigilant. This cycle continued for more than ten minutes before the team all descended to the bottom of the crack.

At the same time, the people on the surface were not idle.

The other personnel remained on guard outside, while the remaining technicians built surveying equipment. There were also some who continued to measure the underground pollution source.

Time passed by bit by bit.

Everyone on the ground was waiting anxiously. Information came from below.

"The positioning device shows that they are close to the pollution source." Hill held the LCD tablet nervously, not even daring to breathe loudly, for fear of making the gloomy Fury next to him flip out.

After a few more minutes of waiting, the communication device suddenly let out a rapid scream, as if it had suddenly been frightened.

"Ah!"

This scream made everyone's hearts jump.

"Not good, something happened!"

Nick Fury's pupils shrank. He grabbed the device and shouted, "Barton, Natasha, what happened?"

"No... nothing happened." The person who replied was Hawkeye, but his tone was still a little shocked.

It was obvious that he had seen something amazing.

"Nothing?"

Nick Fury's eyebrows furrowed together. "Report the situation below. What did you see?"

"Uh..."

Hawkeye hesitated for a moment, then said in a complicated tone: "Director, there is no danger below, but... the situation is a bit complicated. I can't describe it. I suggest you come down to see it yourself."

The situation was complicated?

Indescribable?

No threat?

Nick Fury had a black question mark on his face. What was this?

"Director, how about I go down and take a look?" Hill came forward and suggested in a low voice.

"No need."

Nick Fury waved his hand and said, "Since the Thunder Unit has confirmed that it's safe down there, let's go down together and see what's going on."

Shua! Shua! Shua! Shua!

Everyone followed the rope and descended to the bottom of the crack.

As they walked through the dark crack that was as big as a rift valley, waves of shock surged in Nick Fury's heart. To be able to create such a terrifying destructive force, it was almost comparable to the destruction of death god and the Quincy back in the New York war!

When they passed through the dark cracks and arrived at the underground cave, everyone was shocked speechless!

More than half of the rock walls of the cave collapsed, and the ground structure showed signs of breaking. Huge rocks piled up in a mess, as if they had been bombarded by tactical missiles. Crystalized substances could be seen everywhere after high temperatures, as well as the pungent stench that remained in the air!

"This... this is"

Nick Fury's pupils shrank to the point of a needle, completely unable to imagine what was happening here!

"Director!"

Natasha trotted over and handed over the instrument in her hand. She said with a serious expression, "Please take a look. We detected residual spiritual energy here. Someone fought."

Spiritual energy?

Nick Fury felt a dull pain in his brain as soon as he heard the word. He frowned and said, "Do you mean... death god caused it?"

"I don't think so."

Natasha shook her head and pointed at the holes on the walls. "From the traces of the battle, I think the battle side should be the Quincy that death god mentioned."

"Based on?" Fury raised his eyebrows.

Natasha analyzed, "Director, please look. From the hole damage left on the rock wall, it does not look like the sword type weapon that death god often uses. Instead, it is more like the damage caused by a stronger penetrating arrow."

"As far as we know, only death god, hollow, and Quincy can use their spiritual power. Among them, there are only the combat methods of Quincy, which are mainly based on bows and arrows. death god mostly fights with sword type weapon, while hollow fights with his limbs."

"Of course, my speculation may not be accurate. The other two may also cause this kind of damage effect, but I think it is more likely to destroy the Quincy. Barton carefully observed the damage effects, and also thought that they were caused by arrow type weapons."

Hawkeye, as a professional archer, had some credibility to his words. After listening to it, Fury nodded and felt that it was reasonable. He asked, "Then the target of the battle with the Quincy, do you think it is hollow?"

"It is not clear." Natasha shook her head and sighed, "There is too little information that can be analyzed at the scene, and the residual traces are deliberately cleared."

"Director!"

At this time, Hawkeye suddenly ran over. "I found something. I need you to come and take a look."

Nick Fury's eyes lit up and he quickly followed Hawkeye.

Because most of the cave had collapsed. There were huge rocks everywhere, so they could only make their way through the cracks. Nick Fury followed Hawkeye for a few minutes and came to a cave that had not collapsed yet.

"Director, look."

Hawkeye turned on the light and shone the light on a piece of black meat that was only the size of a fingernail and still squirming.

"A piece of... meat?" Nick Fury frowned. Just as he was about to reach out to touch it, he was stopped by Hawkeye.

"Don't touch it, Director!"

Hawkeye said with a serious expression: "According to the detector, this piece of meat is emitting that strange pollution fluctuation. It's just that the fluctuation is too weak, so it can't affect us."

"It?"

Nick Fury was slightly stunned. Then, he recalled the infected lunatics and retracted his hand with lingering fear. "Are you saying... the strange phenomenon that caused a large area of madness is such a small piece of... meat?"

"To be precise..."

Eagle Eye paused for a moment, then said with a complicated expression, "It should be some kind of 'creature' before this piece of meat was destroyed, causing the previous large area of madness."

"Creature..."

A ray of light flashed in Nick Fury's one-eyed eyes. He suddenly became interested in this creature.

A piece of flesh that was only the size of a fingernail was still able to survive for so long on its own. It could be seen just how terrifying the vitality of its cells was. Moreover, there was an unknown and strange fluctuation that could affect living things in a large area.

The heart of death was burning fiercely!

The human's exuberant desire for knowledge urged him to understand what this creature was!

"Take it away!"

Nick Fury said in a deep voice, "This matter is classified as a level nine secret. Don't let anyone else know about it except you, understand?"

"Yes, Director!"
