Time is stretched by Infinity at this moment, and compressed into a slightly invisible singularity at the next moment.
There is no sound.
The moment Carol pulled the trigger, the entire world fell into absolute silence. All explosions, gunshots, and roars were instantly swallowed up by an invisible and overbearing force, as if they had never existed.
Next, there is light.
It was a piece of pure and extremely blue light that could not be described in any words. Centered on the Lightspeed Engine that was on the verge of collapse, it exploded. It was not illuminating the world, but swallowing it. A piece of light in the field of vision. The burning wreckage of the spaceship, the fighting soldiers, the running agents, and even the expression of shock and anger on Yong Rogg's face all lost their original colors and shapes in this blue light, turning into distorted silhouettes, and then completely melted.
Chu Hang was hiding behind the container, but the blue light seemed to have penetrated the thick steel plate and was directly imprinted on his retina. He felt that he was not illuminated by the light, but was hit hard by an oncoming train traveling at the speed of light. Both his body and Soul Law fell apart in the silent impact.
Boom--!
The terrifying energy Havok finally arrived belatedly. The several-ton container he was hiding in, like a can kicked away by a naughty boy, let out a harsh metal groan and was violently moved backwards for more than ten meters. It hit the wall of the hangar hard, making a huge dent in the solid wall.
Chu Hang was sandwiched between the container and the wall, and all the bones in his body seemed to be whining. An ordinary person would have turned into a puddle of flesh under the impact. But Super-Soldier Serum's strengthened bones and Healing Factor's tenacious repair ability allowed him to endure it.
However, this physical impact was nothing compared to the drastic changes taking place inside his body.
The Cosmic Cube Energy that had been raging in his body for a full fifty years was now like a group of sharks that smelled the smell of blood and fell completely into madness. It was no longer disorderly collision and destruction, but like a volcano that had found a vent, rushing and gathering crazily in one direction!
The extreme pain, like a bursting tide, instantly flooded every nerve in Chu Hang. He felt that his body was being torn apart from the inside, and every cell was screaming, burning, and disintegrating. This was a kind of torture that was purer than death, a kind of panic in which existence was erased.
But at the edge of destruction, the system that had been silent for a long time and almost forgotten by him suddenly responded.
[Warning... warning... warning! Detected homologous... sizzling... high-order energy body!]
[Energy protocol... force... nourish... activate!]
The sound of the system is no longer the usual mechanical sound without fluctuations, but is full of harsh current noises and intermittent glitches, like an old radio that is about to burn out, emitting a hoarse cry at the last moment of Life Law.
Chu Hang's consciousness had been washed away by pain and was almost blurry, but he firmly grasped the most important words in this string of information - "high-order energy body of the same origin".
[Whether... Zi... Copy target: Carol·Dan Vers... Current status: Binary (newborn)?]
[Warning: The host... zizi... the physical condition is extremely unstable! Forcibly copying... will... have a high probability of causing... the complete collapse of the energy structure... zizi... Oblivion!]
[Warning: The core of the system... must protect the host body... this copying will... cause the system... to force sleep...]
A series of warnings flashed crazily in Chu Hang's mind like a death cry, each word carrying the chill of death.
But Chu Hang can no longer listen.
Crash? Oblivion?
Damn it, what's the difference between my collapse and Oblivion now? If I don't bet on this, when this chaos is over, those guys in white coats from S.H.I.E.L.D. can cut me into ten thousand pieces and make them into specimens for people to study!
Hibernate?
Just sleep! As long as you can keep me alive, you can format it on the spot!
This is his only chance. It is his only and last chance to wake up from the ice in this strange time and space!
"Copy!"
He didn't make any sound, but these two words, using all his will, exploded like thunder deep in his own Soul Law.
"Copy it for me!"
[Command... confirm...]
[Start copying...Binary...]
The next second, a brand new, equally vast and majestic energy seemed to have transcended the barrier of space. It was forcefully extracted from the center of the faint blue light, and then poured into Chu Hang's body savagely!
If the original Cosmic Cube Energy in Chu Hang's body was an unruly beast that only knew destruction, the new energy belonging to "Binary" is a top-notch beast trainer with superb skills and rich experience.
The moment the two forces originating from the same source met in his body, there was no more terrifying explosion, but a wonderful chemical reaction.
"Uhhhhhhh--!"
He finally couldn't help but let out an extremely suppressed roar of pain, and curled up into a ball, with veins protruding from his neck and forehead like twisted earthworms. Under his skin, there seemed to be countless strips of light flowing crazily, sometimes blue, sometimes red gold, reflecting his body in and out, like an energy body about to explode.
This kind of pain far exceeds being torn apart by Cosmic Cube Energy, and far exceeds the loneliness of being frozen for fifty years. This is the severe pain of Life Law's form being forcibly reshaped at the most basic level, and it is the ultimate torture of the genetic chain being dismantled and reorganized.
But Chu Hang's will is as clear as ever at this moment.
He could clearly "see" how the new energy wrapped, penetrated, and decomposed the violent original energy little by little, and then rewoven and combined it according to a new mysterious structure that he could not understand. Just like
I don't know how long it took, maybe a century, maybe just a moment.
The heartbreaking pain slowly faded away like an ebbing tide. It was replaced by an unprecedented and indescribably powerful feeling.
He could feel that as long as his mind moved, this power could surge out according to his will and destroy everything in front of him.
[Fusion... begins... energy structure... reorganizing...]
[Fusion completed.]
[Warning: System core... enters forced sleep... restart time... unknown...]
In my mind, the system's voice fell completely silent after emitting its last weak cry. The familiar system interface also dimmed and disappeared without a trace.
Chu Hang slowly loosened his crouched body and slowly stood up from the ground. The bones made a slight crackling sound, which was new life after reshaping.
He looked down at his hands.
A layer of faint, burning golden flame was seeping out from under his skin, forming a thin halo around his body. A few naughty blue arcs, like small snakes, jumped and flickered on his fingertips, making a subtle "sizzling" sound.
The ground under his feet, with him as the center, was already scorched black, as if it had been burned by invisible flames.
He succeeded.
He won this huge gamble involving life and death.
At this moment, the dazzling bright light in the hangar finally began to dissipate, and the vision gradually returned to clarity.
Chu Hang's eyes flashed, and almost instinctively, he focused all his attention on trying to control the energy that was leaking out of his body uncontrollably.
"Go back! Go back here!" He roared crazily in his heart.
The layer of golden flames flickered for a few times, then reluctantly and little by little retracted under his skin. The electric arc on his fingertips also "sizzled" and disappeared.
After doing all this, Chu Hang felt like he had run a marathon, and the feeling of exhaustion came over him again. He did not dare to stay, so he ducked and hid behind the deformed container again, only sticking out half of his head, and vigilantly observing the situation outside.
Inside the hangar, it was a mess.
At the center of the explosion, a huge circular shallow pit was melted out of the ground. The edges were as smooth as a mirror, and smoke was still rising.
Carol·Dan Vers was lying in the middle of the shallow pit, her body was black and black, and she was unconscious. Only the weak rise and fall of her chest proved that she was still alive.
A little further away, Nick Fury and Coulson were crawling out of a bunker in embarrassment, their faces covered with dust and fear, and they were looking at this surreal scene with uncertainty.
The Kree commander, Yong Rogg, was thrown away more than ten meters by Havok. He was shaking his head and struggling to stand up. He glanced at the mess around him and then at the unconscious Carol, with a trace of fierceness and determination flashing in his eyes.
He didn't bother with Kree's men who were still fighting with Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., but walked straight towards Carol with a clear goal.
Chu Hang watched this scene in the shadows, clenching his fists tightly.
He knows what Yong Rogg will do next. He will take away Carol, bring back Hala, erase her memory, instill a false past into her, and then turn her into the Kree Empire's sharpest weapon - "Vers". A controlled living weapon to fight for the empire.
Want to stop him?
This thought flashed through Chu Hang's mind, but he immediately extinguished it himself.
No.
He glanced at his hands that were still trembling slightly. His current condition was extremely bad, and he didn't know how to use the energy he had just fused. Rushing out to fight a battle-experienced Hala elite commander was no different from dying. What's more, although the energy in his body had been tamed, his physical fatigue was real.
Moreover, once exposed, his "energy source" which is even weirder than Carol, may immediately become the number one target of Kree and S.H.I.E.L.D.. At that time, he will face the pursuit of both parties, and there will never be peace.
He couldn't take the risk.
At least not now.
Watching Yong Rogg bend down to pick up the unconscious Carol, and watching a intact Kree spacecraft slowly descend from the hole on the top of the hangar, casting a corresponding beam of light, Chu Hang slowly loosened his clenched fists.
His eyes were cold and calm, like the most patient hunter, waiting for the best hunting opportunity.
Live first.
Stay alive and let's talk about other things.
