American comics: Playing Spider-Man at the beginning, wandering around and losing contact

Chapter 59 Space Jump
"what happened?"

Nick, the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., stared at the Cosmic Cube in his sight. This mysterious thing full of unknowns, its originally quiet body was gradually generating an acceleration, like a triggered mechanism, and began to float up and down slowly and rhythmically and rotate!
Nick's question went unanswered because, right after the researcher's trembling report, the research area on the other side, which was responsible for monitoring all the data of the Cosmic Cube, was in an uproar.

Many experts from America's top scientific research fields are staring at the data on the screen in front of them in amazement!

One... Two...

The Cosmic Cube appeared for a short time, or more precisely, right under their noses, for the few seconds they stared at the screen.

It generates a large amount of energy by itself, just like a small artificial star!
In just a few seconds, this huge amount of energy poured out is enough to support the electricity of the most prosperous city in America for a whole year!

What is this for?
"Hello? Researcher, please reply! You guys..."

There was a hint of anger in Nick's tone, or more accurately, a hint of nervousness, as if the terrible guess in his heart was about to come true!

"Mr. Director, this... this thing seems to be forming an energy field similar to space jump!"

After a long while, the researcher swallowed deeply and responded tremblingly.

"Space jump energy field?"

They did not take the initiative to trigger the energy inside this thing, or to be more precise, with the current technology on Earth, it is extremely difficult to perfectly utilize the energy of the Cosmic Cube.

And now this thing starts up on its own?
Or more precisely, was it activated by someone?

A space jump with Earth as the destination?
Nick put his hands on the table. He had come into contact with the so-called alien forces in his early years, so he naturally knew that anyone who coveted the earth would not be a good person to negotiate with them.

"Turn off the device, now!"

The Cosmic Cube itself is the carrier of the Space Gem. Without contact from external forces, it cannot use the power within it. Before, they had been transferring huge amounts of energy into it.

At this moment, the energy source must be cut off.

"Mr. Director, the energy field near the Cosmic Cube is already very huge. If we cut it off by force..."

If it is cut off forcibly, the leaked energy may destroy the entire experimental base.

But Nick didn't worry too much.

The researcher is unwilling to take this responsibility, but he has no choice but to do so.

Nick took three or two steps to the guard on duty not far away, and under the other's extremely surprised eyes, he snatched the gun from his hand.

This type of firearm is a high-powered laser weapon they recently developed using the energy of the Cosmic Cube itself. Currently, it is only in the experimental stage.

But Nick didn't have time to think too much. After holding the gun, he skillfully pulled the safety bolt and aimed at the observation platform where the Cosmic Cube was placed.

Boom! The azure blue laser shot out in an instant, and after it came into contact with the material, a large amount of heat expanded and exploded, shattering the entire metal platform.

The Cosmic Cube was safe and sound.

However, without external energy stimulation, the dazzling light gradually dimmed.

"Did it succeed..." Nick breathed a sigh of relief.

The expected energy explosion did not happen, which was probably all his luck.

Several guards who were watching all this happen were dumbfounded. As guards, they were supposed to prevent invasions from destroying the base, but now it seemed that the dark-skinned chief in front of them looked like an invader.

Nick waved his hand, and the other guards quickly came to their senses, put on anti-radiation equipment, and "surrounded" the quiet Cosmic Cube.

Nick calmed down and looked at everything calmly. "Fury, what happened? Why did it explode over there?"

A video call suddenly came in, and Nick looked at Coulson who was in a daze and waved his hand.

His hands were shaking slightly because of the recoil caused by the laser weapon firing.

"It's okay, it was just a small situation, it's been resolved now." Nick replied calmly.

"A minor incident? OK... Fury, don't tell me you used a weapon to kill a mosquito?"

Coulson's mouth twitched. He should have been in the base at this time, but he was assigned by the president to deal with mutant-related matters. Obviously, now, looking at Nick's rough methods, he regretted not personally supervising the experiment process.

"Fury, you have to know that the President has been pleading with Congress for a long time for this weapons development. If you mess things up... we will all lose the President's trust together." Coulson sighed and advised.

Nick nodded confidently.

"Don't worry, with me here, nothing can go wrong."

After saying that, he looked at the guards on duty. At this moment, they were already wearing protective clothing and were holding the container, trying to follow Nick's order and put the thing back into the box.

However, after seeing the strangeness of this thing with their own eyes, it was obvious that the hands of these guards holding the Cosmic Cube were all trembling slightly.

"Let's put this thing away today. After a few days, once we figure out the cause of the energy anomaly, we'll take it out and study it." Nick muttered to himself.

He must first ensure that there are no accidents, and then advance the test process!

However, he glanced at today's date and saw that the deadline given to them by the president was getting closer and closer.

"Ugh……"

Ding--

As Nick was sighing, a voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

The guard holding the Cosmic Cube trembled and dropped the Cube on the ground...

Fortunately, he quickly bent down and picked up the Rubik's Cube.

"How clumsy! Which guard team are you from? What's your name?" Nick scolded majestically.

The guard quickly bowed and nodded, apologizing for his mistake.

However, after bending over, the man suddenly yelled and threw the thing in his hand out again! However, this time it was not because of a slip of the hand, but the moment he picked up the Cosmic Cube, the surface of the Cube inexplicably generated an extremely high temperature...

It was like a piece of metal that was instantly heated to thousands of degrees! Instantly, the guard's hand, who was wearing a heat-insulating glove, was burned black.

Ding-dong

The Cosmic Cube rolled to the ground and spun several times.

Then, a thick beam of energy was projected out from it, and after the space in front exploded, a nebula-like deep blue mist appeared. The mist was diffuse, and in the middle was a hole like a black hole.

At this moment, everyone held their breath!

It happened in a flash, and even Nick, who was always alert, didn't have time to stop it this time.
