Chapter 174 The Argument About the Vortex

Hill introduced: "Actually, Director Nick Fury didn't care that much if it was just a maelstrom in the desert, it was just a strange natural process.

However, in his report to Chief Ferry, Coulson mentioned that the vortex might have autonomous consciousness, which caught the attention of the chief.

You know, the director planned to form the Avengers Alliance a year ago. The Avengers Alliance intends to unite the powerful forces on the earth to deal with threats from beyond the earth.

Before the arrival of alien threats, these powerful combat forces may fight independently or even be hostile to each other, but when faced with a common extraterrestrial threat, they will unite to protect the earth.

Director Fury believed that the most powerful force on earth is the Hulk, which is why he tried so hard to recruit Banner;

And now, a new and most powerful combat force has appeared, which is this giant desert vortex. "

Itlake nodded, and Nick Fury was right. If the giant vortex is really conscious, then it should also belong to a special form of life on Earth.

Since it is life, there is subjective initiative that can be mobilized, and the possibility of becoming a member of the Avengers.

But imagine, in "Avengers One", to deal with Loki and the Chitauri, in addition to Iron Man, the US team and Thor and other humanoid heroes, there is a large desert vortex next to it, this pose It's not very easy to pose, and the poster is not very good to shoot.

The car flew southeast, crossed the Atlantic Ocean, and the African continental plate was gradually approaching.

Overlooking the land, it is brown and golden, and the undulations of the sand dunes are like static waves. In this disordered fold, there is an obvious huge vortex.

There are several temporary buildings on the edge of the vortex, which should be the residences of agents and scientists.

The car descended slowly, and as soon as the door opened, Coulson greeted him, holding Itlake's hands and shaking them vigorously:

"Itlake, you are finally here!"

Tony also greeted him, pushed Coulson away, and gave Itlake a big hug: "Itlake, we meet again, thank you for helping me build the reactor, do you think I look a lot better recently?"

Itlake thought, it would be great if the beautiful Miss Hill could be as enthusiastic as these two middle-aged uncles, and said:
"What's going on?"

"Come with me."

Coulson took Itlake into the temporary research institute. With the experience of studying Thor's Hammer in New Mexico last time, Coulson believed in Itlake's ability to study strange things.

Everyone came to a holographic projection screen, Tony slid the screen with gestures, and the panorama of the desert vortex was displayed:

"The existing information is that the desert vortex gamma rays exceed the standard, which is more than 100 times the normal level in nature.

The desert vortex has a 'live' feature, and placing specific objects on the desert will activate this feature. "

Tony slid his palm, and the holographic projection screen magnified the viewing angle. A car drove into the vortex. The vortex seemed to sense this situation and began to spin faster. Because of the wriggling of the sand below, the wheels gradually sank into the ground, saying:

"Colson should have told you about the situation when we first arrived in the email. We were almost buried alive in the sand that night, squeezed into meatloaf by the depths of the desert."

Coulson said: "Fortunately, I drank a lot of water at night and woke up urgently to urinate, which saved everyone's life."

Tony said: "Shouldn't you be thankful for my steel armor? Without it, who would dig us out of the sand?"

Itlake asked: "Do you have any research results for this information?"

Coulson said: "At present, the professional research team has no results, but I have some guesses of my own.

There are gamma rays in this vortex, and this is the key ray that makes the Hulk mutate. I wonder if this desert is related to the lost Hulk? "

Tony shook his head and said: "Gamma rays are the by-products of atomic nuclei falling from a high-energy level to a low-energy level. They are not exclusive to the Hulk. Coulson, I think you should take the task that Nick Fury assigned to you. come out."

Coulson said: "I'm just an ordinary agent, so I can only make this kind of limited guess in your opinion.

However, agents also have the information advantage of agents. I called up the list of various superpowers in the S.H.I.E.L.D. information base, and found that there is a superpower similar to the ability of the desert vortex——William Baker. "

Coulson turned his attention to Itlake, and continued: "Itlake, you know more about Sandman than S.H.I.E.L.D. What do you think of the relationship between the two?"

Coulson was clearly proud of his well-founded reasoning, but Itlake's reaction poured cold water on him:
"The two of them have nothing to do with each other."

"How is it possible? Their bodies are all sand, and their ability is to control the sand, but one covers a larger area and the other is smaller; one moves slower, and the other moves faster.

I think we have good reason to speculate that just like gamma rays turned Dr. Banner into the Hulk, gamma rays from some source hit someone and turned him into Sandman Two.

A drop of ink dropped into a basin of water will be diluted, and the No. [-] sandman entered the Sahara Desert and was also diluted by the endless sand here, so he will be bigger and slower. "

Itlake does not agree with Coulson's statement that William Baker became a Sandman because he conspired with Osborne's intern Aiden to deal with him.

They believed that their abilities were related to bricks, so Aiden created a "silicon dioxide catalytic gun" to turn bricks into gravel.

Later, when William was about to die with his throat cut off by Bullseye, the liquid in the silicon dioxide catalytic gun flowed into his neck wound, giving him the ability to sand.

"William Baker was not exposed to gamma rays, nor did he have more than natural levels of gamma rays."

Coulson disagreed with Itlake's point of view: "But both of them are in the state of sand, and they can control the sand.

William Baker didn't turn into a sandman because of gamma rays. It doesn't mean that gamma rays can't make people into sandmen. How can you say that the two of them have nothing to do with each other? "

Itlake said: "I don't know if the body of the desert vortex is sand, but the information obtained so far does not prove that the desert vortex can control the sand as the sandman does."

"Can't control the sand? Then how could our car be swallowed by him?"

Tony also said: "That's right, we have done experiments, even objects with a density lower than sand, as long as the noise is loud enough, they will be swallowed by the sand."
