170: Prepare to Launch Nuclear Weapons

Roar!

In the Central Block of Manhattan, Hulk Roared and Jumped Directly from a Tall Building.

On the Way Down, He Smashed to Death Several Chitauri Soldiers One after Another.

The Powerful Impact Generated by Falling on the Ground Overturned All the Surrounding Chitauri Soldiers to the Ground.

Even So, a Group of Chitauri Soldiers Came to Fill In Immediately, with Their Laser Guns Strafing Towards Hulk.

The Chitauri Army's Powerful Weapons of Destruction, Capable of Piercing Rock Directly, Fell on Hulk.

It Just Stirred up a Little Spark, Showing How tough Hulk's Defense Was.

Although It Doesn't Cause Actual Damage to Hulk, the Pain Is Still There.

This Also Aroused Hulk's Ferocity Even More. He Picked up a Private Car beside Him and Smashed It Down at a Chitauri Soldier.

Again and Again.

The Two Chitauri Soldiers below Were Directly Smashed into a paste.

The Remaining Chitauri Soldiers, after Seeing Hulk So Brutal, Seemed to Be Frightened and Had a Tendency to Retreat.

Hulk Directly Swung the Car in His Hand, Smashed It, and Rushed Towards Other the Chitauri Soldiers.

This Fierce Scene, Also Appeared in the Conference Hall of S.H.I.E.L.D.

On the Screens in Front of Nick Fury, Everyone in HigherUps Looked at Nick Fury with Serious Expressions.

Obviously, Their Conversation Just Now Was Not Particularly Smooth.

After Watching Hulk's Battle, Nick Fury Stubbornly Said: "I Believe My Soldiers Can Solve These Disasters in Front of Us."

"I Formed Avengers at a Great Cost, Wasn't It Just for This Moment?"

He Seems to Want to Prove the Viability of the Avengers Plan through the Present Scene.

But Some People in HigherUps Don't Think So.

"Director Nick Fury, It Seems That from the Current Situation, the Number of Aliens Is Increasing."

"And Your Avengers Seem to Be Out of Their Depth."

The Picture on the Video Turned Again, and a Video Appeared in Front of Everyone.

Nick Fury Immediately Recognized - It was Hawkeye.

At This Moment, Hawkeye does Not have Many Arrow Feathers Left.

Immediately Afterwards, the Screen Changed Again, and Rogers and Black Widow Faced the Chituari Soldier, and the Two Fought Each Other.

And Both of Them Had More or Less Scars on Their Bodies.

Compared to the Others Present, Rogers and Black Widow Were Out of Breath.

The Number of Chitauri Soldiers Is Still Increasing.

"Captain, What should we do Now?"

"I'm Running Out of Energy."

Black Widow Is Fighting Almost Purely in Body Art, and Now She Is a Little Out of Breath When She Speaks.

Rogers Also Knew That They Had No Chance of Winning at This Rate.

Each of Them Now Attracts a Portion of Chitauri's Forces, Leaving other Chitauris to Fight on Their Own.

But If One Person Falls First, the Free Chitauri Soldiers Will Attack the Others.

In This Way, the Balance Is Suddenly Disintegrated.

Rogers Glanced at the Space Door in the Sky.

Black Widow Took the Lead and Said: "It Seems That If You Want to Go Up There, You Can Only Hitch a Ride First."

"Are You Sure You Can?"

"Uh-huh?"

Black Widow Smiled Reluctantly and Said: "Besides, I Don't Think You Have Any Other Way."

Although the Two Cooperated for the First Time, They Had an Unspoken Understanding as If They Had Been Friends for Many Years.

Rogers Also Knew That Black Widow Wanted to Hijack a Chitauri Cavalry, Go Directly to the Top of the Stark Building, and Find a Way to Close the Space Door.

"You're Right, Leave It to Me Here."

Rogers Squatted Down and Patted His Vibranium Shield: "Come On, I'll Send It to You."

Black Widow Glanced at the Flying Chitauri Soldiers in the Sky and Stepped on Rogers' Vibranium Shield at the Right Moment.

Rogers Shoved Hard, Throwing Black Widow Straight Up.

The Cooperation of This Scene Was Also Seen by Nick Fury, Who Looked at the Members of HigherUps Very Confidently.

Several People in There Whispered.

And This Voice Nick Fury Can't Hear.

Nick Fury Frowned at Their Discussion, Suddenly Feeling the Slightest Bit of a Nuisance.

He Knows These Damned Guys Too Well.

This Group of People, If They Find That the Situation Has Developed to an Uncontrollable Level, Will Definitely Make the Wildest Decisions.

After a While.

Everyone in HigherUps Has Also Finished the Discussion.

The Man in the Middle Said, "Director Nick Fury, If I Remember Correctly."

"At That Time, in Order to Deal with the Worst Case, Director Carter Once Applied to the Military Region for Two Nuclear Weapons to Be Placed on the S.H.I.E.L.D. Mothership.""

"Right."

Nick Fury's Face Sank.

Sure Enough, These Guys Have Already Made the Craziest Idea.

"Yes, the Reason Why Director Carter Applied for Two Nuclear Weapons Was Also Because of an Invasion."

"State's Secretary Sir, I Don't Think Now Is the Time to Use Those Two Nuclear Weapons."

Almost Everyone Present Knew About This Matter.

It Is Precisely Because of This That the Position of Nick Fury Shield Director Was Established Later.

Because at That Time the Whole Earth except That Woman, He Was the Only One Who Experienced Space Travel.

A Person Who Also Has a Friendly Exchange with a Race.

State's Secretary Looked at Nick Fury and Continued: "Now, Only You, S.H.I.E.L.D., Are the Closest to New York and Have the Ability to Launch Nuclear Weapons."

"After Discussions in HigherUps Just Now, We Have Decided to Drop Nuclear Weapons on Manhattan..."

"In Turn, a Comprehensive Clean-up Is Reached."

Nick Fury Couldn't Believe They Actually Planned to Do This!

Glancing around Those Men, Nick Fury Snapped: "I Will Never Allow You to Do this."

"That's the Most Prosperous Area in New York City, Don't You Know How Many Civilians There Are?"

"Once Your Nukes Are Launched, Everyone Will Die, Including Those in the Underground Dugouts!"

The State's Secretary Looked at Nick Fury Expressionlessly as If He Was Talking about Something Unimportant.

"It Would Be a Disaster for the Whole World If This Group of Aliens Showed Up Outside of Manhattan."

"Sacrificing Some People For Saving the Whole World."

"We Think This Deal Is a Very Good Deal."

Several Other Members Also Nodded in Agreement.

"Is This a Deal?"

"You Are Treating So Many Human Lives as a Deal, Are You Crazy?"

"I Am the Director of s.h.i.e.l.d. I Will Never Allow Nuclear Weapons to Be Fired!"

The State's Secretary Smiled Imperceptibly, as If Waiting for Nick Fury to Object to His Order.

"S.H.I.E.L.D., When Carter and the Others Were Established, in Order to Prevent Excessive Interference in the Military and Political Circles."

"It Is Indeed Said That the Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. Has Independent Power and Can Not Accept Our Orders."

Nick Fury Nodded Decisively: "It's Good to Know, Now S.H.I.E.L.D. Is Still Under Me."

"However, Also to Prevent Abuse of Power by the Shield Director."

"As long as the HigherUps Votes Unanimously, We Can Remove You as Shield Director."

"Everyone, What Do You See?"

Nick Fury's Already Dark Face Is Now Became Pale.

Gloomy like Water.

If It Was Before, He Would Not Have to Worry That HigherUps Would Collectively Oppose Him.

Because It Seems That HigherUps Is a Whole, in Fact, Each of Them Is Also Intriguing.

The Existence of S.H.I.E.L.D., Every One of Them Loathes.

But Both Want S.H.I.E.L.D. to Help Them with the Others.

So There Has Always Been a Delicate Balance between S.H.I.E.L.D. and Members of HigherUps, but Not Now.

The Chitauri Threat to Them Has Far Surpassed the Importance of S.H.I.E.L.D.

As Predicted.

All Members Raised Their Hands in Agreement to Dismiss Nick Fury As Shield's Director.

"From This Moment On, Nick Fury Is Relieved from Shield Director."

"Recovery Time to Be Determined."

The State's Secretary Sorted Out the Documents on the Table: "Now"

"Prepare to Launch Nuclear Weapons, Target: Midtown Manhattan, Stark Building..."
