Chapter 217 Neptune
Angel City is located on the Pacific Island and is connected to the Los Angeles city circle through a three-thousand-meter-long cross-sea bridge.
In an apartment building adjacent to the entrance of the bridge, a Pioneer Company officer sipped cheap instant coffee, sat in the window seat again, held a telescope and continued to monitor the vehicles on the bridge. I chatted wordlessly with my colleagues next to me about the football game I watched yesterday.
As a small employee, he didn't know exactly what happened. He only knew that his superiors attached great importance to this and sent many people from the headquarters.
“I was at the scene yesterday. The Eagles quarterback was hit so badly that he was almost paralyzed and will have to use a wheelchair for the rest of his life.”
He talked about the scene of the game with great excitement. It took him a while to notice that his colleagues kept winking at him, so he quickly closed his mouth and looked sideways carefully out of the corner of his eye.
In the corner of the room, the bald man who claimed to be Professor N was wearing a suit, sitting in a wheelchair, with his eyes closed and concentrating.
Of course he heard the conversation between two mortals, as well as words such as "paralysis" and "wheelchair",
But as the leader of mutants, Professor N has always been magnanimous, how could he be petty?
It was just a suggestion that they would suffer from depression, mania, split personality and other mental illnesses ten days later in their minds.
‘nigger is also very angry. ’
Professor N thought to himself and continued to use his mental power to scan and detect the vehicles downstairs.
Angel City is located on the sea. If the superpower wants to take Caroline and Angelica into Angel City, there are only four ways.
Ultra-high-altitude skydiving, high-altitude penetration, driving across the sea-crossing bridge, and crossing the sea by boat.
On every traffic route, there is one or several Pioneer Company teams squatting. To ensure that nothing goes wrong in the last two hours before the time limit.
Buzzing——
The employee who was drinking coffee suddenly felt his mobile phone vibrating violently in his jacket pocket. He took it out and glanced at it, and his eyes instantly straightened.
【Emergency Alert】
【Ballistic missiles flying from the Pacific are approaching the Los Angeles city area. Please go to the evacuation facility immediately. This is not a drill]
Before the employee could put down his coffee, other people’s cell phones in the room began to ring with sharp ringtones.
In the entire apartment building, drivers waiting to pass at the bridge entrance, and even in the entire city, almost everyone received the same text message on their mobile phones.
“What are you doing?”
“Is this a joke?”
The driver and the pedestrians looked at each other, at a loss for a moment.
The TV station that was playing an advertisement suddenly inserted a picture with white text on a black background, issuing an emergency alert in the name of the US government;
All email addresses in the Los Angeles city circle received the same email;
The electronic traffic status signs on the roadside changed colors to show nearby subways, underground parking lots and other evacuation facilities;
< br>“Damn, it’s an Amber Alert!”
A pedestrian reacted first and exclaimed: “The text message is true! The missile is coming!”
Amber Alert AMBER , the full name is America's Missing: BroadcastingEmergencyResponse, America's Missing Persons Broadcasting Emergency Response.
It was originally a national alert system set up to respond to child abduction cases - when a child abduction case is confirmed and certain conditions are met,
The U.S. Emergency Alert System EAS will send alerts via radio, television, and email. , text messages, online social platforms and other channels to send alerts to ordinary people where the kidnapping occurred.
Because AMBER is really easy to use, this system has also been used for serious violent crimes such as terrorist attacks, kidnappings, and mass shootings, as well as natural disasters such as hurricanes, tsunamis, and earthquakes.
(There is also a reunion system in China with similar functions)
A text message about an incoming missile may be a false alarm, but cross-verification through so many channels such as radio, television, and email is not very likely. It might be fake news.
After a short delay, the pedestrians finally came to their senses.
Chaos swept through the city and broke out.
Someone was sweating profusely, opening Google Maps with trembling palms, and running towards the nearest underground parking lot;
Someone knocked down a stranger with one punch, and snatched a motorcycle or bicycle as a means of transportation. Tool;
Some people cry for father and mother and use their mobile phones to say goodbye to their parents and loved ones via video;
Some people breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the text message. Shi Shiran walked up to the boss of the company who usually hated him to death, slapped him hard in the face, and gave him a middle finger;
There were also people Use your brain and rush north of the city - the ballistic missile flying from the Pacific can only be North Korea, Russia, or one of the big Eastern countries, and the latter two have consulates in Los Angeles.
No matter how good the missile is, it will not blow up your own consulate, right?
“?!”
On a pure white helium airship, Cervantes opened his eyes wide, overlooking the city traffic that suddenly fell into chaos outside the window.
A full day has passed since the super-powered person escaped from prison outside Denver. There are only the last two hours left before the 48-hour mission deadline.
During this period of time, Cervantes has been keeping his heart tight, wary of the opposing player. Now that my boots have landed, I feel relieved.
“For a nuclear strike launched by any major power, the priority will always be the hostile country’s nuclear facilities, political centers, arsenals, military bases, ports, and finally major cities. In contrast, Los Angeles’ priority The level is too low. Others, such as Washington, did not receive the text message, which proves that the entire alert was fake."
Cervantes's mind was racing, "U.S. federal emergency. Measures Department FEMA! The player opposite has invaded FEMA!”
The Federal Emergency Management Agency is headquartered in Washington, D.C., and has offices throughout the United States.
The player does not need to really threaten the entire city. As long as he takes control of the Los Angeles FEMA office or even just invades the network, he can skip a lot of steps and directly attack the entire city through pre-set programs. Issue false alarms and create huge chaos.
And his intention is also obvious, to fish in troubled waters.
"The alarm is false, don't panic, stick to your position, the superpower is coming."
Cervantes shouted in the communication channel, but his words The scope of influence is limited to Pioneer companies.
The city fell into a larger-scale traffic jam and chaos. Under all the surveillance cameras, everyone was running aimlessly, and no suspicious objects could be found at all.
“shit.”
Cervantes cursed as the Romans do, took a deep breath, and said on the radio channel: “Professor N, it’s up to you.”
"Yeah."
Black Braised Egg nodded, lit the marijuana cigarette with a lighter, took a long puff, and began to meditate.
Professor X in the original X-Men can find and control the mind of anyone anywhere on earth.
The black Professor N, who was transformed by the old seal, naturally cannot be as defiant as Professor X. What he can do is to find a relatively peaceful mind from the chaotic hearts in the city.
The whole process was not smooth. A large number of chaotic thoughts poured into Professor N's mind, causing his brain to overload and nosebleeds flowing from his nostrils.
He could sense that senior officials of the Los Angeles government were hiding in underground bunkers, so that no one went to the FEMA Los Angeles office to check;
He could sense that the extremely crowded subway stations And in the parking lot, countless people were crying, confessing, regretting, and begging;
He even sensed that a pair of biological siblings were kissing each other with the idea of "anyway, they will die if the nuclear bomb comes, so why not have a good time before death"? Well, I don't know what will happen to these two after the false alarm is debunked. How to get along.
Beyond these minds, Professor N finally found several suspicious targets approaching the cross-sea bridge from different directions.
One of them was less than five hundred meters away from him.
"Under the sea! There is a spiritual fluctuation at the bottom of the sea!"
Professor N opened his eyes suddenly, and without bothering to wipe away the nosebleed, he quickly took the tablet and marked the coordinates on the map.
Cervantes pursed his lips. Sure enough, the other party was messing up the city just to provide cover for the raid.
In that case
He turned his head and looked at a bearded man wearing Nordic armor, "Thunder God Thor, it's your turn to take action."
"Yes."
The bearded man nodded. He was a fourth-level lightning system user who had been transformed by the old seal.
Since the old seal can only transform the human body itself and cannot create equipment, what he is wearing is a cospaly uniform temporarily bought from the comic exhibition. The hammer in his hand is not Thor's hammer,
but a A claw hammer used for nailing wooden boards.
Don't worry about how inconsistent the claw hammer looks. In short, "Thor" opened the hatch and jumped down. Thunder and lightning flashed all over his body. The moment he touched the sea, he swung out the iron. hammer.
Zila——
Rolling thunder and lightning penetrated into the not-so-deep offshore sea, illuminating the turbid water.
A figure was struck by lightning and jumped out from the bottom of the sea.
It was a middle-aged man with a handsome face, wearing a wet suit and a rose on his chest.
"I am the son of Odin, the king of Asgard, the guardian and heir of Asgard - Thor, God of Thunder, who are you." Holding a claw hammer, half of the body was soaked in the water The God of Thunder shouted in a deep voice.
The man in the suit stepped on the sea water and wiped his hair, "I am the King of the Sea."
The King of the Sea? It doesn’t look like it, it’s too thin, and where’s your trident?
Seemingly sensing Thor's doubts, Neptune took out a phone book from his pocket, with a long list of names densely written on it.
[Wendy, Chicago, 22 years old, single, nightclub DJ, occasional dates]
[Pella, Seattle, 34 years old, married, husband goes there regularly every summer Business trip in Europe]
[Yulia, San Francisco, 19 years old, likes skiing, poetry, and photography]
After each string of names, there is also a number and specific address.
It’s so annoying, isn’t this Neptune? !
