Chapter 121 The Truth Revealed, Abilities Exposed (1)
Giant sand mushrooms bloom in the desert, with the central pillar rising like a pillar to the sky, and the umbrella-like canopy at the top stretching for hundreds of meters, like a giant umbrella held up on the vast horizon, almost completely obscuring the night sky.
Boom!Boom!Boom!
The boulder crashed onto the umbrella with a series of dull thuds, then rolled off the umbrella and slammed heavily onto the surrounding sand. The powerful inertia caused the sand to collapse, creating huge, deep craters.
Each boulder is at least half a meter wide, and the power of such a huge rock falling from such a height is self-evident.
Even so, the sturdy sand mushrooms are as solid as concrete. When boulders are thrown at them, the mushrooms remain unmoved, with only a fine amount of yellow sand being shaken off and scattered by the night wind.
"Phew, at least this time I didn't mess up."
Beneath the mushroom, Victor looked up at the towering, sandy mushroom above him and let out a long sigh of relief.
If it weren't for these mushrooms, they would have had a really hard time dealing with those big rocks.
"Victor, be serious, the battle isn't over yet."
Logan stood beside Victor, his steel claws extended, his gaze coldly fixed on the enemies around him.
At this moment, not far behind them, the masked enemies were also staring intently at them.
Seeing that the bombardment of the giant rock by the monkey-faced mask had no effect, the group exchanged glances and charged toward Logan and his men again.
"ah!!!"
The pig-faced mask roared, clenching its fists, arcs of electricity dancing in its hands, and muffled thunderclaps resounded around it. The terrifying electric light was particularly dazzling in the night.
He threw a punch at Logan and the others in mid-air, and a thick bolt of lightning instantly shot out, flashing and rumbling like a long, silvery dragon rushing straight at Logan and his men.
Upon seeing the terrifying, violent lightning, Logan and the others' expressions changed drastically.
"Get out of here!"
Logan shouted and leaped to his feet, jumping several meters to the side.
Victor and the others also retreated.
boom!!
The terrifying lightning struck the spot where everyone had been standing. In an instant, the powerful impact blasted a huge crater into the sand. Arcs of electricity danced wildly in the crater, and large areas of land turned scorched black, with white smoke rising continuously from it.
Logan's eyes froze. After regaining his balance, he lunged forward, his steel claws slashing at the pig-faced mask.
The pig-faced mask reacted quickly, its hands crackling with electricity, crackling with lightning, transforming into a ball of lightning, which it hurled at Logan without hesitation.
Logan focused intently, and without hesitation, he slashed down with his steel claws at the ball of light.
boom!
The moment the steel claws touched the ball of lightning, they suddenly exploded, countless arcs of electricity leaping across the claws and running wildly around Logan's arm, unleashing a powerful shockwave.
Logan was enveloped in electric light, his clothes were charred by the electric shock, flames shot up, and his flesh was directly charred by the jumping electric light, his skin turned a charred black after being electrocuted, and white smoke spread over it.
A sharp, stinging pain and a tingling sensation deep within his body enveloped Logan. He was knocked back several steps by the terrifying ball of lightning. After regaining his footing, his injuries visibly healed, returning to normal in the blink of an eye.
Seeing this, the pig-faced mask's eyes turned cold, and he angrily retorted, "A troublesome fellow!"
As he spoke, he raised the ball of light again and continued to throw it at Logan.
Logan stared intently at the orb of light, his brow furrowed.
His own steel claws were conductive, so if he tried to outmaneuver it, he wouldn't gain any advantage. After thinking for a while, his eyes caught sight of the stones on the ground. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck him, and he picked up the stones and threw them at the ball of light.
With the added power of his terrifying strength, the fist-sized rock shot out, even creating a sonic boom in the air, and accurately hit the lightning bolt.
boom!
Another explosion rang out, and the rock was shattered by the insane electric current the moment it came into contact with the lightning bolt, turning into a pile of black scorched earth that fell to the ground.
But the ball of lightning was also annihilated and dissipated in the air.
Taking advantage of this moment, Logan stomped his hind foot hard on the ground and swung his steel claws, shooting them forcefully towards the pig-faced mask.
Upon seeing this, the pig-faced mask's eyes filled with terror, and it retreated repeatedly, constantly gathering and throwing bolts of lightning, but Logan dodged them one by one.
……
On the other side, Moira faced the cat-faced mask holding a dagger.
The cat-faced mask moved nimbly, flashing across the sand. The dagger in its hand gleamed coldly as it slashed repeatedly at Moira. But every time the dagger was about to strike Moira, she would push it away with both hands, causing the air to tremble and the dagger to shake in mid-air, forcing it to change direction and making it impossible for it to hit her.
Upon seeing this, the cat-faced mask frowned and opened its mouth to exhale white smoke.
"roll!"
Knowing the danger of the white smoke, Moira immediately let out a loud shout, and ripples appeared on the ground instantly, causing the sand in front of her to tremble as if an earthquake had struck.
The cat-face mask lost its balance, and the smoke in its mouth dissipated once more.
He glared fiercely at Moira, but seeing that the smoke was no longer effective, he could only raise his dagger and charge at Moira again. The two continued to entangle in the sand, their strength evenly matched.
boom!
On the other side, Victor was fighting against the orc mask. The orc mask's arms were enormous, like two giant pendulums pounding wildly on the sand, each punch having the effect of a bomb explosion.
Faced with this terrifying power, Victor dared not take it head-on and could only dodge and look for opportunities to retaliate. The two were locked in a stalemate and fought fiercely for a time.
"ah!!"
Suddenly, a wail rang out, and everyone hurriedly looked over.
In the distance, an arm crackling with electric arcs danced in the air, amidst a spray of blood mist.
The pig-faced mask screamed and clutched its severed limbs as it retreated, blood gushing out and instantly staining the sand red.
He looked at Logan in horror, taking steps backward, blood flowing everywhere.
Logan was also suffering. A tingling electric arc pulsed through his body, white smoke rose continuously, his clothes were charred, and his entire body was stimulated by electric light from the inside out, causing a soreness in his muscles and bones.
Fortunately, despite the twists and turns, they finally managed to cut off that troublesome arm!
On the other side, the other masked men were also momentarily stunned by what they saw.
Taking advantage of their momentary lapse in concentration, Victor and his men launched a furious attack. The masked men were caught off guard and were forced to retreat, falling into a disadvantageous position.
Just as Logan was about to seize the opportunity to finish off the pig-faced mask,
boom!
A flash of white light appeared before his eyes, and the monkey-faced mask suddenly appeared, blocking Logan's attack.
He watched Logan and his men's fierce attack, narrowed his eyes, and sneered, "Interesting."
Logan and his group's strength far exceeded their expectations.
They thought their operation would go very smoothly without the Avengers' intervention, but unexpectedly, a few troublesome guys appeared.
"If you know what's what, then get lost!"
Logan scoffed at the monkey-faced mask, his gaze fixed on them with icy intensity.
If the other side could retreat obediently, that would be fine. After all, he could see that these guys were very difficult to deal with, and each of them had unfathomable strength. If it really came down to a fight to the death, Logan and his team might have a chance of winning, but it definitely wouldn't be easy.
If this continues, they'll be in danger when S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Avengers arrive.
The other side can leave by teleporting, but they don't have that ability now.
In response to Logan's words, the monkey-masked man merely scoffed and said coldly, "Heh, don't be so arrogant."
After saying that, he looked at the orc mask not far away and shouted, "Plan B!"
Upon hearing this, the orc mask broke free from Victor's grasp, looked at the monkey face, took a deep breath, and nodded emphatically.
"ah!!!"
The next moment, he suddenly roared, and his already incredibly strong arms grew even larger, becoming as thick as a millstone, with each muscle line clearly visible on his arms.
He roared and slammed his hands into the ground.
boom!!
The enormous arms pounded a terrifying crater into the sand, sending sand flying everywhere. A horrifying crack ripped out and spread across the giant sand mushroom that McCain had created.
Rumble!!
In an instant, a terrifying gap appeared in the pillar in the middle of the sand mushroom. Cracks spread rapidly on the pillar like a spider web, and countless stones fell and sand flew everywhere.
The entire towering sand mushroom trembled violently at this moment, and the cap at the top was also teetering on the brink of collapse, covered with cracks, as if it would collapse at any moment.
"Fuck!"
Victor looked up in horror at the giant mushroom that was constantly shedding sand, and roared at Maika, "Your mushroom isn't even that sturdy!"
If this giant mushroom were to fall, it would be like a hundred-meter-tall building collapsing; they would all be completely buried by the terrifying sand mushroom!
"It's not my fault!"
As McCa watched the trembling sand mushroom, terror appeared on his face. His arms shone with golden light as he slammed his hands down on the ground, transmitting a continuous stream of golden light into it. A terrifying energy was gathering underground.
McCa gritted his teeth and frowned, but he couldn't stop the sand mushroom from collapsing at all. Gravel rolled down and sand and gravel fell like a terrifying sandstorm.
"Damn it, he can control these lands!"
McCa tried to channel energy into the ground to reassemble the sand mushrooms, but he discovered that the sand, which he could control at will, had become incredibly loose and impossible to gather together!
At that moment, he realized that the orc mask opposite him also had the ability to control the land!
Peng!
At this moment, the sand mushroom finally couldn't withstand the pressure and collapsed with a crash.
The central pillar collapsed with a roar, turning into huge clods of earth that crashed down.
Without the support of the pillars, the huge umbrella-shaped structure that stretched for hundreds of meters in mid-air collapsed, and countless clods of earth crashed down.
As the terrifying boulder fell, everyone's pupils constricted sharply.
Any one of these boulders could have killed them!
"Come closer, everyone!"
At this moment, McCa hurriedly shouted to the crowd, his body flashing with golden light and his arms surging with iridescent light.
Logan and the others rushed towards McCa and caught up with him.
When McCa activated his ability, the sand on the ground flowed and rose again, surrounding them all and transforming it into an incredibly sturdy fortress that enveloped them all.
Boom!
Huge rocks and clods of earth fell like meteors, creating a series of earth-shattering sounds. The powerful impact rippled across the ground, causing the earth to tremble. The shockwave created a whirlwind that whipped up sand and dust, creating a terrifying sandstorm that ravaged the desert.
Logan and the others below the fortress felt the ground tremble and looked up at the fortress walls in horror.
A dull thud echoed through the fortress, causing it to tremble and scatter sand and dust.
Fortunately, the fortress that McCa solidified was very sturdy. Apart from some sand being shaken down, it did not break, which reassured the group somewhat.
On the other side, before the sand mushroom collapsed, the monkey-faced mask led all its companions to a distant hill.
Everyone lay prone on the hill, their eyes fixed on the distance, watching the terrifying dust and smoke produced by the collapse of the sand mushroom. It was as if the heavens and earth were completely buried by the terrifying dust and smoke, and the yellow sand raged and scattered, as if a huge sandstorm had been unleashed.
"It must be soaked through!"
The pig-faced mask covered his severed limb. He had used lightning to burn off all the bleeding wounds on his severed limb and forcibly stopped the bleeding. Although he was no longer in danger of dying, the pain still made him tremble uncontrollably.
Looking at Logan and his men, completely buried in dust in the distance, his eyes were filled with ferocity. He then turned to the monkey-faced mask and asked, "Number Two, do we still want that shipment?"
Looking at the dust-shrouded scene in the distance, the monkey-masked figure shook his head with a gloomy expression. "We just received intelligence that Hydra and S.H.I.E.L.D. are coming."
He looked up at the distant horizon, took a deep breath, and said reluctantly, "We'll cancel this shipment for now!"
If either Hydra or S.H.I.E.L.D. arrives later, they'll be in trouble. After all, those are two giant organizations that they can't handle right now.
Moreover, the cargo was buried along with the truck in that huge sand mushroom. In such a short time, they couldn't possibly dig through such thick sand to find any trace of the cargo, so they had no choice but to retreat.
"Those damn bastards! If it weren't for them, we would have had them by now!"
The pig-faced mask looked at the raging sandstorm in the distance, and was furious at Logan and his group's appearance.
"Stop talking, let's get out of here!"
After the monkey-faced mask finished speaking, it reached out and took the hands of the others, its eyes beneath the mask turning white.
Bang
After a crisp sound, everyone instantly turned into white particles and disappeared.
Meanwhile, the dust that had been raging below gradually dissipated, and rocks and clods of earth piled up in the sand to form a small hill, burying all the trucks and people inside. The night wind blew, and everything became calm.
boom!
Suddenly, a hand with steel claws emerged from the rock layer. It pushed aside the boulder pressing down on its head, broke through the thick layer of sand, and crawled out, constantly shaking off the sand from its body and hair.
"Oh shit."
Logan stared at the truck completely buried in sand, his eyes grim. He turned to the men who had crawled out with him and said, "The truck is completely crushed. Hopefully, the cargo wasn't damaged."
"Cough cough cough."
Victor coughed and brushed the dust off his face, staring at the endless desert with a furrowed brow. "Even if the cargo is alright," he said, "we don't know where it is."
Everything is still uncovered, so they can't find the truck's location at all. Even if they did know its location, they wouldn't be able to dig it out in a short time.
And the people from S.H.I.E.L.D. might already be on their way; they don't have much time left.
"Let me do it."
Moira suddenly stood up, looked at the large expanse of rocks and clods of earth in front of her, and took a deep breath.
"you?"
Victor looked at her in surprise. "What's wrong with you?"
Moira didn't speak, but after taking a deep breath, she suddenly stretched her hands out in front of her.
The next moment, the surrounding land shook violently, as if a violent earthquake had occurred. The sand trembled and the huge rocks shook.
Surprisingly, the ground where Logan and his companions stood remained unharmed; only the surrounding ground trembled.
As the trembling intensified, the massive rocks shattered with a deafening roar. First, they broke in two, then continued to tremble, splitting into four, then eight, and so on, as if they had entered a stone crusher. In no time, all the boulders and clods of earth were reduced to dust.
These powders, after continuous trembling, slowly collapsed and flattened the small hill formed by the falling boulders.
A moment later, the bodies of the trucks gradually came into view, but by then the cargo compartments had been flattened, and the originally huge truck bodies now looked less than two meters thick.
As the truck appeared, Moira withdrew her power and let out a long sigh of relief.
Logan and his companions walked to the truck beds with furrowed brows, looking at the cargo beds that had been completely deformed by the boulders, and felt a sense of unease.
With a whoosh, Logan extended his steel claws, forcefully slashed across the carriage, opened the outer boxes, and began rummaging through the target cargo.
Intelligence indicates that their target is cargo container number seventeen.
After a careful search, the group finally found the special cargo box marked with 17.
Seeing that the cargo box was intact, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Thankfully, you're alright."
Marcus looked at the cargo box, patted his chest, and let out a breath.
"Let's go."
McCa carefully wiped the dust off the surface of the cargo box and then forcefully lifted it out of the truck.
Just then, several streaks of light suddenly flashed on the distant horizon, appearing to be approaching.
Logan squinted, then frowned instantly. "Damn it, it's a military vehicle. We have to get out of here!"
The military vehicle was still some distance away, but Logan estimated that they would arrive in five minutes at most.
Upon hearing this, the group's expressions changed drastically. After nodding, they hurriedly ran towards the two cars they had come in.
"Going together will make us too conspicuous, so let's split up."
Logan spoke in a deep voice, then turned to McCarthy and said, "You come with me in one car. We'll draw the pursuers away. Victor, Marcus, Moira, you take the other route!"
Everyone nodded in agreement, and Logan and McCain got into the second car.
The two cars started simultaneously and sped off in different directions.
The military vehicles behind them saw their car and quickly split up to give chase.
Seeing the pursuers hot on his heels, Logan turned the car around without hesitation and drove into the desert. He deliberately swayed the car, kicking up clouds of sand to obscure the view of the military vehicles behind him. At the same time, he accelerated and fled frantically, eventually driving the car into a canyon to hide, then turned off the engine and lights.
A few minutes later, the military vehicle sped past outside the canyon without spotting them.
Seeing this, McCain in the passenger seat breathed a sigh of relief. "Let's stay here for a while, and drive back after they've gone far away."
Logan nodded. Just then, the communicator rang; it was a call from the farm.
Logan accepted it without hesitation, his brows suddenly furrowing.
"Damn it, the farm is surrounded by Hydra again! Someone reported to Hydra that they were trying to rescue people!"
After hanging up the phone, Logan turned to look at McCain, his face grim. "The situation on the farm is very dangerous now."
Upon hearing this, Maika immediately feigned surprise. "How could that be? Are the people on the farm planning to defect to the enemy?!"
Looking at McCain's expression, Logan's face darkened. "I think you're the one who's betrayed us!"
Upon hearing this, McCarthy's expression changed. "Logan, what do you mean?!"
Seeing McCain's expression, Logan laid his cards on the table. "I'm telling you, the people on the farm never discovered the Hydra base, and I never told them about going to rescue anyone. That phone call was from the Avengers, and only a few of us knew that the people on the farm wanted to go to rescue anyone!"
"Now that Hydra has surrounded the farm again, someone must have leaked information to them!"
Logan stared intently at McCain, his voice chillingly cold.
McCain was taken aback, then his face darkened. "Are you questioning me?!"
Logan took a deep breath and slowly shook his head. "This isn't a question; this is the truth, you traitor!"
