Yakushi Kabuto Makes a Hasty Retreat

Just as Ahmanet broke free of her chains, a S.H.I.E.L.D.. agent rushed over with a gun.

He pulled the trigger on Ahmanet.

"Bang!"

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Several shots were fired at Ahmanet, but they caused no damage whatsoever. With a single leap, she tackled the agent to the ground and instantly drained his life force.

And so, after consuming the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Ahmanet's strength had almost fully recovered.

She opened her arms and said in Ancient Egypt, "God of Death, bring me my chosen one."

"I summon the dust of Egypt."

With Ahmanet's incantation, the glass in the room shattered instantly.

At that moment, Coulson and his men entered. Seeing the woman before him with double pupils and strange markings on her face and body, he immediately shouted, "Fire!"

"Da-da-da-da!"

Instantly, countless bullets poured out, firing at Ahmanet.

However, the next second, a wall of sand appeared in front of Ahmanet, blocking all the incoming bullets.

Upon witnessing this, Yakushi Kabuto threw out three Kunai to help Explosive Tags, grabbed Coulson, and ran away.

As for the special task force beside him, Yakushi Kabuto simply shouted "Run!" and then paid no further attention.

Yakushi Kabuto holding Coulson, had already retreated and was beginning to retrace his steps.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The three Explosive Tags detonated instantly, blasting open the sand wall and revealing Ahmanet inside.

Ahmanet stretched out her arms, and the falling gravel shot towards the agents in front of her like bullets.

"Swish... swish... swish!"

In the blink of an eye, the entire Task Force was wiped out.

At this moment, Coulson, who was being carried by Yakushi Kabuto, had air in his mouth. He looked down and called out, "Kabuto, what happened?"

Why run?

In just a few dozen meters, Yakushi Kabuto had already led Coulson to the main street outside.

Yakushi Kabuto put Coulson down and then said:

"We can't win. If I had dragged you into this, you would have been killed just now."

Upon hearing Yakushi Kabuto's words, Coulson was taken aback and said uncertainly, "How is that possible? You haven't even fought yet."

At this moment, Jane and Nick also ran out and came outside, where Ahmanet's voice could be heard throughout the area.

"Give him to me."

Instantly, all the windows shattered, and a large amount of sand and dust poured out of the Prodigium building, chasing after the two of them.

Yakushi Kabuto had run out, also saw this scene and said, "Look at this destruction. I can dodge it, but what about you?"

Coulson was also stunned by what he saw, his mouth agape as he stammered, "This, this..."

"Is she a ninja too?"

Yakushi Kabuto thought for a moment about what the woman looked like, then shook his head and said, "I'm not sure, but she didn't have Headband, and I couldn't understand the incantation she was chanting, so she's probably not a ninja."

Coulson didn't understand Ancient Egypt, but he realized that this Superhuman was likely native to Earth.

At that moment, Coulson also spotted Nick and Jane being chased by the sandstorm, and said to Yakushi Kabuto, "Follow these two; maybe they know what happened."

"Good!"

······

On the other side.

The Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. at the Crusader Cemetery received a phone call.

"What's wrong?"

"She escaped! She has the Dagger of Set."

"We think she should go back to you, and we'll come to your aid right away."

"Lock the door and protect the Gem."

The agent who received the call swallowed hard, then immediately ordered his men to pack the Gem into boxes and begin closing the tomb's doors. At the same time, four armed agents were positioned outside the doors and at the tunnel entrance for security.

······

On the other side.

Nick and Jane ran through the streets, but then they saw Ahmanet appear in front of them, followed by billowing yellow sand.

Ahmanet, wielding the Dagger of Set, swept her hand away, engulfing the yellow sand as she hurtled towards the two.

Coulson, watching the woman reappear from a distance, looked somewhat solemn; the scale of the destruction was truly considerable.

"It seems she really isn't a ninja."

"Kabuto, we can't let her keep causing destruction. Do you have any way to stop her?"

Yakushi Kabuto nodded. "But we should find out what happened first."

After speaking, Yakushi Kabuto appeared in front of the two in a flash, grabbed Jane, and said, "I'm a member of S.H.I.E.L.D.., come with me."

Yakushi Kabuto took Jane directly to Coulson's side, but Yakushi Kabuto Nick unattended; he wanted to see who these Sabaku were chasing.

"Coulson, I've brought her here."

Seeing that Yakushi Kabuto had brought Jane over, Coulson said:

"Ms. Jane, this is Coulson from S.H.I.E.L.D.. in New York."

Having reviewed the intelligence from Prodigium and knowing that Jane was also a S.H.I.E.L.D.. member in London, Coulson continued:

"It's an emergency. Can you tell me what happened?"

Upon learning that they were members of the New York headquarters, Jane didn't hide anything and immediately told them everything she knew.

Just as Jane was recounting the cause of the incident, Yakushi Kabuto looked in the direction of the Sabaku and discovered that after he led the woman away, the Sabaku did not come towards them; the main force was still chasing after the man.

Was he that woman's target?

Nick, who was running, suddenly stopped when he saw that Jane, who was following beside him, had suddenly disappeared. He looked around and called out, "Jane... Jane..."

Just as Nick was searching for Jane, Vail suddenly appeared in front of him and shouted, "Nick, let's go!"

"I know where that Gem is!"

Nick looked at Vail, thinking of Jane, but she was still nowhere to be found. In the end, having no other choice, he followed Vail toward the Gem.

On the other side.

The remaining field agents from the Prodigium had already left the base and were heading to provide support.

At the same time, he notified the other agents via walkie-talkie. "We are heading to the Crusader Burial Chamber."

"We will enter through the Northwest Trade Tunnel. Over."

······

By this time, Jane had finished explaining the situation to Coulson. After hearing her account, Coulson remained silent for a few seconds before speaking:

"The other side wants to use Nick's body to summon Set, the Egypt Death God. The only thing missing now is the Gem on the dagger, right?"

"Yes, the person who just ran away with me was Nick."

"We must obtain the Gem beforehand and destroy it; only in this way can we stop Ahmanet's plot."
