Chapter 525 Freeze

"Ice Age!"

Under the gaze of the Avengers.

[Kuzan] slowly exhaled a breath of cold air from his mouth, and as a cold current surged up, the ground quickly froze into ice at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Oops!"

Looking at the ice cubes that were spreading, Natasha's expression changed, and she felt a bone-chilling chill. As a battle-experienced former SHIELD super agent, she moved towards her without any hesitation. The direction in which the freezing aura spread retreated.

However, even Natasha, who reacted so quickly, did not escape the power of freezing in the end.

The rapidly spreading cold air enveloped Natasha and all the remaining members of the Avengers around [Kuzan] in an instant, turning them into lifelike ice statues.

Of course, it's not just the Avengers who are frozen.

"..."

In the complete silence, [Kuzan] slowly stood up. Where he looked, there was no sound in the originally noisy American army camp.

The cold air released by [Kuzan] froze the entire camp in an instant.

If someone walks into the camp where American soldiers are at this moment, they will find that the expressions on the faces of the soldiers who were frozen into ice sculptures in the camp do not show any pain at all. Even the vast majority of them still retain the same appearance as before they were frozen. Movement, that is to say, these American soldiers were completely frozen without any reaction.

Retracting his gaze from the frozen camp in the distance, [Kuzan] scanned the surrounding Avengers ice sculptures.

Then it stopped on Steve's body.

The surging cold current froze Captain America at the moment when he held his shield to resist. Judging from the expression on the opponent's face in the ice, it was obvious that he was opening his mouth to do something.

However, the cold air prevented Captain America from making any further movements, and also froze him at the moment he opened his mouth.

Ordinary people will undoubtedly encounter fatal threats if they stay in a freezing environment for too long.

Even if the Avengers are frozen in front of them, and the physical fitness of most of the members is far superior to that of ordinary people, the continued low temperature will also cause serious harm to them.

It might even take their lives.

However, Li Ran in the antique shop did not react at all.

Not to mention asking [Kuzan] to rescue Steve and the others from the ice.

Because he knew that someone would save them.

Sure enough, Li Ran's idea had just come to an end in the antique shop.

I saw that not far from [Kuzan], the similarly frozen Phantom figure became blurred and passed through the ice like a phantom.

"Well, there are actually some fish that slipped through the net."

Noticing the scene of Vision penetrating the ice, [Kuzan] raised his eyebrows, raised his palms and aimed at him to release the cold air.

However, at this moment, a watch-like device on [Kuzan]'s wrist suddenly rang.

"This is [Kuzan]."

Aiming at Vision with one hand, [Kuzan] raised his other arm to connect the device and replied with a deep voice.

"Captain Aokiji, it's not good, our containment of [Holy Lord] failed, and now the resurrected [Holy Lord] has destroyed the base... even..."

After the device was connected, rapid reports and constant explosions and destruction came from the watch.

"Containment breach?"

After hearing the report, [Kuzan] frowned slightly.

Then his eyes flickered, and he glanced at Vision in front of him and the Avengers who were still frozen around him, and then turned to look at [Dominic Butch] behind him who was also frozen by him. The cold aura that had been exuding suddenly dissipated. He retracted his arm facing the vision and stretched. The originally cold expression on his face returned to the sleepy look before. He yawned and said: "Since If the containment fails, then our Third Action Team will not be responsible for what happens next. It seems that the American government is confident in eliminating the [Holy Lord]. Your next work will be left to you, the Avengers. "

While yawning, [Kuzan] reached out and pressed the device on his wrist.

The next moment, under the gaze of Vision, the [Any Door] that disappeared before appeared again.

[Kuzan] grabbed [Dominic Butch] with one hand and put it on his shoulder, while holding the [any door], turning the door handle and pulling it out, carrying [Dominic Butch] in Go.

"By the way, if you don't want to see all those frozen American soldiers die, act quickly."

Before the figure was about to disappear into [Any Door], [Kuzan] stuck out his head, looked at the vigilant Vision and reminded him slowly in a low voice: "With every minute of delay, those soldiers are facing life threats. The bigger it gets, if all these soldiers are frozen to death by then, you will have to fight the [Holy Lord] alone, Avengers."

boom--

As [Kuzan] finished speaking, his last protruding head disappeared into [Any Door].

Watching [Kuzan]'s figure disappear into [Any Door], Vision looked at the wooden door that disappeared like a shadow in front of him.

"Huh~"

The solemn expression on his face relaxed slightly, and then his whole movement swayed a bit.

Frequent use of the power of the Mind Stone has brought Vision's body close to the point of exhaustion.

However, thinking of the words [Kuzan] left when he left, Vision had no choice but to support his already extremely weak body to stand firm. Looking at Steve who was frozen in front of him, the light of the Mind Stone on his forehead was flickering faintly, and at the same time, a high-temperature light fell on the ice sculpture of Captain America.

…

"...The situation is quite bad, Kyle..."

"We have the right to know the truth. Why did such a huge monster appear in Canadian territory? Obviously, our government concealed the truth. The new Prime Minister Justin deceived us. He treated us all as fools. , putting the whole of Canada in crisis."

"This is all the government's fault and we need help!"

"Damn it, did you see that monster? That terrible monster. It destroyed the largest port in our town with just one bite. No one, no one told me what happened..."

"This is punishment, a punishment from God!"

"Avengers, we need the Avengers, Canada needs help!"

"I have known for a long time, I have known for a long time. I have seen the Canadian military before. They have been secretly doing some shameful things. This huge monster may be the experimental product of the military. I once wanted to He told the truth, but was warned by the military, these damn guys, their experiment was out of control."

"Thanks for the news coverage from frontline reporters..."

At the news station of Canada's CBC Broadcasting Company, the anchor looked at the increasingly excited people and had to end the news interview at the director's signal.

He nodded slightly, glanced at the instant message in his hand, and immediately spoke: "Now here is the latest report. The new Prime Minister Justin has made a statement about the huge monster that appeared in Canada, saying that he has no idea about the existence of this monster. The incident was all done by the military, and it stated that the military involved would be punished. At the same time, it issued a request for assistance from the international community, hoping that the Avengers would take action to stop the monsters wreaking havoc in Canada..."

In the picture reported by the news, outside the Parliament Buildings in Ottawa, Prime Minister Justin looked decadent. Apparently, he was exhausted mentally and physically from the destruction caused by the out-of-control monster.

Thanks to the development of the Internet, Canada simply cannot stop the transmission of information about [Holy Lord].

Especially as the resurrected [Holy Lord] left the military base and moved towards Canada, more and more people saw this huge monster, and the panic it caused became even greater.

At this time, Justin hoped that the troops dispatched by the United States could arrive as soon as possible to stop the raging [Holy Lord].

However, what Justin didn't know was that the situation of the American troops was not very optimistic either.

…

"Thanks!"

With a blanket wrapped around him, Falcon Sam shiveringly took the hot coffee from Natasha's hand. He lowered his head and took a sip to feel the warmth that filled his body. He breathed a sigh of relief and pulled the blanket on him again. . Although with the help of Vision, he was successfully rescued from the ice, the period of freezing also caused obvious damage to Sam's body.

"You're welcome."

Compared with Sam, Natasha's situation is slightly better.

The modified body and past experiences made her more resistant to cold than ordinary people. After a period of training, she has successfully recovered.

He rubbed his hands to resist the lingering chill that enveloped the entire camp.

At this moment, the barracks where the Avengers were located was opened, and Tony and others walked in with tired faces.

"How's the situation?"

Looking at the people who came back, Natasha immediately asked.

"It's basically settled."

Although he was the first among the Avengers to be frozen by [Kuzan], Hulk's strong physical fitness allowed Banner to be almost unaffected by the cold force. He recovered as soon as he came out of the huge ice ball, and Tony, who arrived in cooperation, entered the frozen camp to carry out rescue work.

"We used the body parts left by Ultron and Vision's power to improvise a heating device, which thawed the frozen soldiers through continuous high temperature."

He reached out and rubbed his forehead. From receiving Steve's contact to arriving at the camp, Tony had been carrying out rescue operations non-stop without rest. He was already extremely exhausted.

"It's just that it took a long time for the soldiers to be frozen and thawed. Even if they are able to move, they cannot immediately regain their combat capabilities."

He also rushed back to the military camp with Tony.

'War Machine' James was even more worried about the situation in the entire camp. He had discovered many thawed bodies that had problems caused by the cold air, including General Ross.

"The worst case scenario is not just that."

Facing the worried Tony, Natasha had to tell everyone worse news.

"According to the latest reports from Canada, the [Holy Lord] who came out of the military base has arrived at a small town near the Canadian port. Although the Canadian side has deployed a certain degree of military force to stop it, there is no doubt about the result. Now the entire There are all relevant reports about [Holy Lord] on the Internet.”

"What about the SCP Foundation?"

Tony couldn't help but frown when he heard what Natasha said.

"Agent Hill has attempted to contact Mr. Long."

"The other party stated that the SCP Foundation has decided to temporarily give up the containment of [Holy Lord]."

"Give up for now."

"It seems that America's actions this time have completely angered the SCP Foundation."

After hearing Natasha's reply, Tony couldn't help but murmured.

"Not just the Pentagon, but the Avengers as well."

Her own experience as an agent made Natasha not as emotionally attached to the United States as the other Avengers, so she knew better that the SCP Foundation's performance this time was not only for the United States, but also because of the actions of the Avengers. .

"I think that after this confrontation, even if the Avengers and the SCP Foundation cooperate again in the future, there is no way to return to the previous level."

"..."

Natasha's analysis made Steve's expression silent for a moment.

In fact, he also knew in his heart that what Natasha said was correct. This conflict not only allowed the Avengers to see the powerful power of the SCP Foundation, but also sowed the seeds of division in their originally tacit cooperation. seed. The position of the SCP Foundation is to protect all mankind. Even if there are sacrifices, it is a necessary trade-off, as long as the containment can be successfully completed and more people can be protected.

However, the Avengers cannot just watch this kind of sacrifice happen. They are superheroes and their purpose of existence is to protect the people.

"Huh~"

Taking a deep breath and suppressing his inner thoughts, Steve looked at everyone in the barracks and spoke again: "Now, it's too late to talk about this. According to Vision, the SCP Foundation has obviously decided not to do anything to [Holy Lord] will launch the second containment, at least before the American government encounters a complete failure, but we cannot watch this happen. If [Holy Lord] is allowed to continue to destroy, there will be many innocent people. We are in danger, so even if we cannot contain [Holy Lord] like the SCP Foundation, we must still try hard to prevent [Holy Lord] from continuing to destroy it."
