Marvel: Just became a citizen of the motherland, and S.H.I.E.L.D. came knocking on my door.

The sky, the earth, the stairwells, the ruins... the city center is now surrounded by a densely packed army of Chitauri.

Natasha and Steve couldn't help but show expressions of helplessness.

"Huh...huh..."

Captain America, Steve Rogers, was panting heavily, having just smashed a Chitauri's skull with his shield.

But now, looking at the tide of soldiers that has once again covered the surrounding area.

Even Captain America, who is usually cheerful, optimistic, and positive and is hailed as a symbol of the American spirit, was somewhat shaken at this moment.

The intensity of the war I'm facing now that I've awakened is incomparable to that of World War II.

At least those Nazis were still human beings, and could be dealt with by guns.

But these are all alien visitors, and their weapons and equipment far surpass those of the World War II era.

Among them are even colossal biological warships similar to the Leviathan...

It's not even on the same level as before!

"Hey, Natasha, do you think we can still win...?"

Steve asked, feeling this insecure for the first time.

The current war is no longer something that can be controlled by human effort.

After hearing Steve's words, Natasha did not reply, staring blankly at her surroundings.

The intense combat has now exhausted her physical strength.

Furthermore, their weapons and ammunition were completely empty.

And now, the surrounding area is still filled with war and enemies.

War, blood, death, cries, despair... and the ferocious, ugly, and brutal faces of the Chitauri soldiers.

The energy guns that kept firing in his hands, the corpses and remains, and the battlefield ruins strewn all around.

In this desperate and critical moment, a blue figure suddenly appeared in Natasha's mind.

"If... if that guy were here, maybe he could find a way..."

Natasha murmured to herself, a glimmer of hope rising in her heart.

Meanwhile, Steve, seeing a Chitauri squad approaching nearby, gritted his teeth and forced himself to stand up.

Then he charged toward them.

......

"Director Fu Rui, what do we do?! Our lines are constantly closing in, and we're about to be overwhelmed!"

Inside the combat command center of the space mothership.

Agent Hill reported anxiously to Nick Fury.

During this operation, I was responsible for piloting the aerospace mothership in the air and for collecting and monitoring the frontline situation in real time.

Through the real-time monitoring footage from the backend, one can see just how dire the current battle situation has become.

So he rushed over to Nick Fury in a panic to report.

"I know......"

Nick Fury's face was gloomy, his expression unpredictable, and his look was particularly unpleasant.

I am well aware of the dire state of the current battle situation, which is clearly shown by the red and blue markings on the battle map.

And at this moment, the telephone alarm in the combat command room was still ringing incessantly.

Starting thirty minutes ago, the phone began to bombard me with calls from various officials at the Department of Defense.

And once the call connected, the tone was full of questioning and reprimands, demanding that S.H.I.E.L.D. immediately come up with a plan to deal with the disaster.

They also claimed that after such a big incident in New York City, they would hold Nick Fury accountable and bring S.H.I.E.L.D. to blame.

Later, Nick Fury also got annoyed by it.

I simply unplugged the phone and let it ring on its own.

These Pentagon officials are completely useless at a time like this; all they do is make phone calls and yell nonsense.

If I had my own solutions, would I be letting them stand here and give me pointers?!

Just then, Hill's communicator rang, and he received a phone call.

Upon hearing the news inside, Hill's expression changed drastically.

"Director Fury! The Pentagon says they're going to use a nuclear weapon to raze this place to the ground!"

"What?! A nuclear bomb?!"

Upon hearing Agent Hill's words, Nick Fury's only remaining eye's pupil constricted sharply.

Launching a nuclear missile?

"No, that's not right..."

Nick Fury instantly understood their plan.

They planned to blow this place up to prevent the Chitauri army from spreading and affecting more surrounding areas!

"Have those guys gone mad?!"

Nick Fury shouted.

Keep in mind, this is downtown New York!

The residents here are worried that if the Pentagon were to use a nuclear weapon...

Doesn't that mean abandoning all the citizens here?

"The Pentagon said on the phone that they had reported the situation to the White House and obtained the president's permission."

"Now is a critical moment. Since S.H.I.E.L.D. cannot come up with a better solution to deal with this crisis, in order to prevent these aliens from roaming and invading other areas."

"So they plan to use nuclear weapons urgently to completely nuke this place and wipe out all those monsters along with it!"

"Fuck you—! These cold-blooded bastards!"

Nick Fury's forehead veins bulged; these politicians didn't care about the citizens who were still here.

They're actually planning to abandon this place? These are millions of living, breathing people! How can they be so indifferent?!

"Shit... is there really no way...?"

Nick Fury looked dazed.

It's as if I can already see the entire downtown New York City being razed to the ground by a nuclear explosion.

"Hill, get me a signal broadcast channel. I want to take over the local radio station!"

After a moment, Nick Fury suddenly spoke.

"Director, you mean...?"

Hill's expression shifted upon hearing this.

"At least let the citizens still in the city center know that this place is going to be attacked by a nuclear bomb. It's better for one person to escape than for them all to die here!"

Nick Fury said.

"Okay...okay, Director Fu Rui!"

Agent Hill said quickly, then turned and ran into the driver's seat.

Next, a few seconds later, the signal jamming devices on the space carrier were activated at full frequency.

Due to strong signal interference, local communication devices such as broadcast towers and signal stations were disrupted.

They have all been taken over by the space mothership.

Nick Fury went into the cockpit, took the microphone, and took a deep breath.

Immediately broadcast the news that the city was about to be bombed by a nuclear bomb to all New Yorkers still in the city center.

Tell them to hurry up and leave the city center, because a nuclear bomb will be used to bomb the area in half an hour.

After broadcasting the message over the radio, Nick Fury slumped back in his chair, looking somewhat exhausted.

Regardless of spreading the news that the Pentagon was going to bomb this place with a nuclear bomb, and exposing the ugly behavior of those officials.

Whether they will cause me trouble in the future or not, at least I will do what I can.

Now seated in his chair, Nick Fury gazed out the cockpit window at the massive Chitauri army.

And in the distance, there's that storm wormhole in the clouds.

"Or... should we just steer the space mothership at full speed towards that wormhole and charge there to our deaths?"

"This might even close the wormhole..."

Nick Fury suddenly thought of it.

However, several Leviathan-like beasts were seen lurking and circling in the sky surrounding that area.

I don't even know if the space carrier can beat those things... Is there really no other way?

Nick Fury looked at the ravaged New York neighborhood, a place that was once one of the most prosperous areas.

It is about to be nuclear-leveled into a wasteland, and it is unknown how many innocent civilians will perish here.

I never expected the Avengers' first operation to end in failure. I... I'm so unwilling to accept it!

Just then, Nick Fury's expression suddenly changed.

On the screen in the cockpit, a figure was rapidly approaching from a certain direction.

Upon recognizing the other person, Nick Fury's expression faltered, and he abruptly stood up from his chair, his face filled with shock.

"It's...it's him? It's that guy from our motherland! He's here now?!"

Chapter 75: Having committed such a despicable act, he should accept punishment and atone for his sins!

Rumble—!

In downtown New York City, around a nearby residential area, gunfire and artillery fire continued to erupt, accompanied by flashes of flame.

Two figures were fleeing hastily with their heads down.

They appeared to be a mother and daughter, fleeing along the town streets, avoiding the surrounding fighting and the roaming Zeta Swiss soldiers, heading towards the outskirts of the city.

The mother and daughter are ordinary citizens of New York City.

After the disaster struck, they all hid in their homes, thinking that government troops would soon come to their rescue and drive away the monsters.

However, no military support has been received so far.

And what we finally heard was the warning we'd just heard on the radio: a nuclear bomb would be used to bomb the area in thirty minutes.

Left with no other choice, they had to brave the hail of bullets to escape from the room where they were hiding, otherwise they might have been killed by a nuclear bomb.

"Amy... hurry! Be careful! If we get to that point up ahead, we might be safe!"

The young woman at the head of the group, the child's mother, stood at the front, observing and avoiding the surrounding Zitauri soldiers.

He was holding a little girl's hand tightly behind him, carefully leading her as they fled along the streets.

During her escape, the little girl was still holding a doll-like object in her arms.

Even now, covered in dust, panting heavily, with a flushed face, and surrounded by the constant explosions and splashes of dirt, he is still exhausted.

But she still didn't give up the doll in her arms, holding it tightly and following her mother as she ran away along the street.

"Amy! Hurry...faster, Amy, why are you still holding this doll? Throw it away!"

The mother at the head of the group saw the doll in her daughter's arms and urged her repeatedly, "Now, every little bit of weight we can reduce and save energy is precious."

But the little girl shook her head and didn't throw it away.

Because this doll is my favorite doll, a superhero wearing a star-spangled cape and a blue uniform.

I bought it from the store using my savings that I had accumulated over a long period of time.

Whenever I'm afraid of having nightmares at night, I hug this doll to sleep, and it makes me feel very safe.
