"OK, Phil, I understand."
"Your next task is to monitor that Vanity Fair reporter named Christine and see who she's been in contact with."
"Once a problem is discovered, don't alert the enemy, understand?"
"I'll get Clint to reinforce you."
Nick Fury hung up the phone quickly; all this messy stuff was giving him a headache.
The Manhattan incident in New York had a severe impact. The unrest had not yet subsided, and the defeat of more than 30,000 troops and the arrest of General Ross plunged the upper echelons of the government into extreme anger and unease.
As the head of S.H.I.E.L.D., Nick Fury is facing unprecedented challenges.
Tony Stark, Iron Man, the troublemaker, revealed his identity, which not only complicated S.H.I.E.L.D.'s cleanup efforts but also caused even more trouble.
Nick Fury's eyes twitched slightly. You, Tony Stark, are a billionaire with a lot of capital, but you just don't understand what it means to be law-abiding!
Don't you think about it? How could the highest levels of government possibly allow private individuals to control such advanced, cutting-edge weaponry as Iron Man?
He spent at least half a day on the phone and three days in meetings to get to this point!
S.H.I.E.L.D. has been cleaning up a mountain of messes; they might as well call themselves the Butt-Cleaning Agency from now on!
Nick Fury was not surprised when a Vanity Fair reporter suddenly attacked Supergirl at a press conference.
In this vast world, there will always be a few restless individuals, and his job is to make these people "disappear in a reasonable way".
The ignorant and arrogant female reporter was obviously being manipulated, but the mastermind's motives remain unknown.
Supergirl is of extraordinary significance to S.H.I.E.L.D., and her extraordinary abilities cannot be ignored, making her comparable to a nation's strategic nuclear weapon.
Especially after Supergirl disappeared for a while and then suddenly returned, S.H.I.E.L.D.'s energy detection devices went off the charts.
Yes, literally, it exploded.
The analysis and research teams stood frozen for a full minute, staring at the peak value that had reached its limit and could no longer be measured.
It has obviously become stronger; the numerical values are increasing at an unscientific rate.
Since its inception, S.H.I.E.L.D.'s testing equipment has been constantly updated, and last time it clearly did not exceed the peak value.
Nick was deeply confused and powerless by this unreasonable speed at which he became stronger.
He had never encountered superpowered individuals before; there were some in the department, and he had even seen aliens, but none were as incredible as Supergirl.
The last person to leave a record that has yet to have its upper limit determined was Carol Danvers.
But without a doubt, he realized that Supergirl's existence was beyond S.H.I.E.L.D.'s control.
"Hill, has there been any news from Natasha?"
Nick Fury paused for a moment, staring at the tall woman organizing documents in the office, and then asked.
"Chief, Agent Romanov asked me to relay some messages through a covert channel," Agent Hill replied coolly.
Nick Fury nodded, indicating that Natasha should continue, explaining that the Eastern superpower's regulatory oversight was very strong, and that communication equipment and computer networks were insecure, so Natasha could only use some relatively primitive methods to transmit messages.
“Nick, I’ve successfully made contact with Aunt Luyu. She’s a very nice person and treats me well. She even enrolled me in a traditional Chinese medicine training course.”
"The neighbors here are very friendly and helpful. The area downstairs is a bustling downtown area, and there are many delicious foods that I've never seen before at night."
Hill spoke expressionlessly, like a broken record.
"Anything else?" Nick Fury frowned and asked, puzzled.
He sent S.H.I.E.L.D.'s best agents to the East, not to make connections or build relationships.
“Lu Yu’s aunt has some distant relatives who are difficult to deal with. They took a liking to the house and used some tricks to get her into a troublesome lawsuit, forcing her to mortgage the house.”
"Of course, I've given them a good kick in the ass, and the house is safe, but the case is progressing too slowly. Shouldn't the efficiency of a major Eastern power be very high?"
Agent Hill continued.
Nick Fury was furious that Natasha would use a classified channel to transmit such useless information, which was in line with Natasha's vengeful style.
"There's some news I think you'll find very interesting. When Lu Yunmeng was doing war correspondence in the war zone, she sent some letters to her aunt."
"The letter essentially said that she felt uneasy and spied on, as if someone was watching her."
"In his last letter before being shot by Ten Rings terrorists, there was a strange doodle."
"A line of text was attached below the drawing: Cut off one head, and two heads will grow."
"I think this thing is not simple, I suggest you investigate it thoroughly." So, that's what she said.
Agent Hill recited half of the article in one breath; heaven knows how devastated she was when she found out she had to memorize it in two minutes.
Nick Fury's face instantly darkened, and his eyes flashed with surprise and doubt.
"Who else knows this information?" he asked in a low voice, staring intently at Hill.
"Don't worry, Chief, I destroyed it after I memorized it. The only people who know about it are Agent Romanov, me, and you."
Hill, noticing Nick's changing expression, answered truthfully.
"From now on, you must forget these messages as if you had never received them."
Nick Fury spoke with utmost seriousness.
"Understood, sir!" Hill sensed the seriousness of the situation.
The graffiti was still unknown, and the classified channel was relatively outdated and unable to transmit images, but Nick Fury was very familiar with that phrase.
"Cut off one head and grow two more"—isn't that the slogan of the Nazi Hydra in Germany, which almost overthrew the entire world?
He remembered that before World War II was over, Captain America's Howling Commandos had already wiped out Hydra.
The post-war reconstruction and the establishment of S.H.I.E.L.D. involved many former Hydra scientists, and they all underwent rigorous screening...
Nick Fury's expression gradually turned serious. He seemed to have thought of something terrible, and an invisible fog was enveloping the entire S.H.I.E.L.D.
“Oh, sir, there’s one more thing.” Hill stopped abruptly as he was about to leave the office.
"What?" Nick Fury asked instinctively, his train of thought interrupted.
"Natasha said that there have been many unfamiliar people near Lu Yu's house recently, which should be related to the S.P.E.L.D. and they are investigating her background. She can't keep up the act any longer."
"Fuck you, why didn't you say so sooner!" Nick Fury exclaimed in disbelief.
Are you serious about putting such important information last?
It must be said that this mysterious and formidable Eastern power has indeed discovered Natasha in such a short time.
You should know that the Black Widows trained in the Red Room are not just famous for nothing!
“Sorry, sir!” Hill saluted, then turned and left.
Watching the other person's back, Nick Fury was speechless for a moment, cursed "shit," and then connected to the satellite communication phone.
"Connect me to the Divine Spear Bureau, Director Zheng."
It seems our Supergirl is hiding some important information.
In fact, Lu Yunmeng, whom he was thinking about, had already slipped out of the reporters' encirclement.
At this stage, the biofield is still very weak and cannot be compared with a real superman.
Using Tony's specially made high-resistance suit is fine, but if you take off in civilian clothes, the clothes will burn up due to the high speed and weak force field.
The Arcane Gate is a trump card, and should only be used as a last resort at any time.
Driving your own luxury car is too conspicuous.
So, in the end, she chose to take a taxi home, which was a more down-to-earth option.
Most reporters were drawn to Tony, whose declaration, "I am Iron Man," ignited the entire audience, carrying a wealth of information.
According to public information, Lu Yunmeng could foresee the trouble Tony was about to face.
However, she was in even bigger trouble. Christine exposed her identity live, and Supergirl's information was naturally revealed.
The phone kept beeping, and the comments on forums, websites, and Twitter were exploding at an explosive rate.
Brown University alumni kept tagging her, wanting to talk to Supergirl.
Some were helpful, some wanted to borrow money, some wanted her to help them fight, and some even went so far as to hope that Supergirl could help them throw their boyfriends to the moon.
Needless to say, there were countless love confession text messages. The person in question was quite virtuous and seemed to have only had one first love when she was 16, which was just holding hands.
A large group of people, both acquaintances and strangers, flocked to the scene. Lu Yunmeng remembered that these people were not exactly close to the original owner of this body; they had probably only met a few times at most.
She only replied to a few people she was somewhat familiar with, but the responses from the other side were far too enthusiastic.
The president of Brown University also sent her a message via email, expressing his sincere invitation to give a lecture.
She was politely refused. What a joke! What kind of talk is this? A woman who comes back from the dead and gains superpowers to fight criminals, so that students will follow suit?
It's just a negative example, it has absolutely no educational value!
Christine's behavior today was strange and unexpectedly aggressive.
Lu Yunmeng wasn't stupid; she could see that the other party had been trying to smear her reputation through indirect means and subtle hints.
Since waking up in that cold cave, she has lost some of her memories, including the original Marvel universe memories and some memories that the original owner should have had.
Lu Yunmeng instinctively sensed something was wrong, as if she had forgotten something important.
But it doesn't matter, we'll deal with whatever comes our way.
Given the current situation and the extraordinary strength she has demonstrated, there are probably very few beings on Earth who can pose a real threat to her.
The Ancient One, who wields unfathomable secret techniques, transcends dimensions, and controls portions of time.
In a state of rage, the Hulk continuously increases his power, enough to cause devastating destruction.
Apart from that, all the other strange and wonderful superpowers are not worth mentioning.
Lu Yunmeng already had a clear plan in mind: after the current turmoil had completely subsided, she would go to outer space and use the energy of the sun to further enhance her strength.
She knew that only by elevating her abilities to the later stages of "steel-like body" could she remain invincible in the face of potentially greater threats in the future.
This is not only about tapping into one's own potential, but also about preparing for unknown challenges.
She believes that only by constantly pushing the limits can one truly control their own destiny and become a powerful being capable of protecting everything.
The taxi driver was a rather elderly man who would occasionally glance back at Lu Yunmeng, his eyes filled with a probing look.
Lu Yunmeng noticed the strange gazes and returned to reality from her thoughts. When she saw the old man's appearance clearly, she showed a surprised expression.
