Chapter 499
Chapter 499
Sheldon once asked Daisy: "Do you know how big the earth is under our feet?"
Daisy shook her head and asked curiously, "How big is it?"
She lives in New York, and New York is already very big. She has been to the Atlantic Ocean by boat, and the Atlantic Ocean is also very big. Peaks, fertile basins, and magnificent oceans, all these amazing and beautiful natural landscapes are included in the same planet, not to mention the large and small creatures living in nature.
The world is all-encompassing.
"The surface area of the earth is [-] million square kilometers," Shelton said. "The circumference of the equator is [-] kilometers."
"You said a lot of numbers, I can't understand!" Missy said.
"The land area of the United States is about 930 million square kilometers." Sheldon said, "The surface area of the earth is about 54 times the land area of the United States."
Daisy's big eyes were round when she heard it, and Missy was about to fall asleep.
"The earth is so big!" Daisy said to Sheldon.
"So although many aliens have come to live on the earth, the earth still bears it silently." Sheldon sighed, "If the earth is blown up one day, it should be death from overwork."
"There are many strange creatures on the earth." Missy recovered from her doze, and also participated in the topic of Sheldon and Daisy, "There are alien creatures, and there are creatures from the earth itself."
She remembered the mystery of the earth monsters she saw on TV: "There are dragons, water monsters, sea monsters, and phoenix..."
Missy snapped her fingers and counted a lot in one breath.
These are creatures that exist in legends without even a shadow, but Sheldon was uncharacteristically, not scoffing at Missy, and said lightly: "Maybe."
"Do you also believe that there are many strange animals on the earth, Sheldon?" Daisy asked.
"Cars can talk, what else is impossible." Sheldon said, "The world that our eyes can see is just the tip of the glacier, and there are still many unknowns."
"Did Sheldon say that?" Wendy asked Daisy with a smile.
Because Tony had to work, Daisy got out of school, and Wendy took her out to play. Today, Daisy wanted to eat afternoon snacks outside. The two of them sat in the pastry shop, digging cakes with spoons and talking while eating.
Daisy told Wendy the new knowledge she learned from Sheldon in the kindergarten today, and also told Wendy that there are many creatures in the world that people don't know.
"Then there are werewolves and vampires too." Wendy said.
Daisy thought about it seriously, nodded and said, "Yes."
"Are there elves and fairies too?" Wendy asked.
Daisy nodded: "I think there will be."
"Ah." Wendy rested her chin and said lazily, "In this era of fierce competition, elves and fairies may also compete for jobs, and when I think of them becoming social animals one day, I don't know whether to laugh or sympathize. "
"Then what is your favorite magical creature?" Wendy asked Daisy.
Daisy had finished eating her own piece of cake, and now she was secretly looking at the untouched pudding on Wendy's plate, licking her mouth, and wanted to order another dessert.
Wendy noticed Daisy's gaze, and moved the pudding over: "Here, eat."
"Don't you want it, Wendy?" Daisy asked.
"I'm trying to lose weight recently, so it's better to eat less." Wendy smiled, "It doesn't matter if you eat, you're still growing. Just eating this is enough, and I have dinner tonight, okay?"
Daisy happily accepted Wendy's pudding: "Good!"
"I want to see sea monsters." Daisy told Wendy, "Ian said that there are really sea monsters in the sea, they are very big, and the little prince would feel very scared when he sees them, but Uncle Arthur is not afraid."
"is it?"
"It also has a name." Daisy thought about it, and quickly remembered, "Karason."
They were chatting when Wendy's cell phone rang, Wendy picked it up and took a look: "Ah, it's Mr. Stark."
She picked up the phone, said a few words, and quickly handed the phone to Daisy who was waiting with her hands wiped clean.
Tony went to take care of the social unrest that appeared in the skyscrapers this afternoon. There were Iron Man and Batman in the lead. Now there are more and more people who want to change their destiny through technology. Unfortunately, the equipment is modeled after superhero outfits. They are not excellent, they want to reverse their life path, but they didn't turn it right. They took the wrong path and are destined to be punished by law.
Tony's task today is to send this person to accept sanctions while protecting innocent citizens.
He called now, probably because the crisis has passed and the matter is almost handled.
"Dad!" Daisy called into the microphone happily and affectionately as soon as she took the phone, "Are you off work?"
"Not yet, I won't be home until later, don't wait for me for dinner, you can eat first, okay?" Tony said.
"I want to wait for you." Daisy said, "I eat a lot of cakes, and my stomach is a little full."
"If you continue to eat like this, you will be the next person in our family to quit sugar, ma'am." Tony said.
Daisy still vaguely heard Rhodes' voice through the receiver.
"Uncle also works with you." Daisy said, "Then invite Uncle to come to our house for dinner, okay?"
"Let's talk about it." Tony said, "Go home when you have enough snacks, and I will go back as soon as possible."
"I want you to go home early and not get hurt, Dad." Daisy said.
After finishing her instructions softly, she hung up on her father's phone.
At this time, Daisy didn't know that tonight, neither Tony nor Rhodes could go home early as promised.
She didn't know that less than 2 minutes after hanging up the call, something happened in Pennsylvania next to New York.
The sun began to slowly set.
Workers at a large nuclear power plant in Pennsylvania are working overtime.
The sudden electromagnetic pulse appeared again, stronger and longer than the last time.
However, amidst everyone's panic and disbelief again, the nuclear power plant due to power outages and electronic equipment failures returned to normal and calm again.
So peaceful, like a cycle that goes through every day.
"Still can't check what's wrong?!" The personnel sent to various places gathered together, all of them asked questions and didn't know anything.
"There are no electromagnetic pulse emitters underground." One of them said humanely, "but electromagnetic pulses are indeed emitted from under our nuclear power plant."
"It's going to be in the newspaper again." The companion sighed, "I think it's better to ask SHIELD to investigate this kind of thing."
"S.H.I.E.L.D. has been notified."
Discussions in low voices were mixed with the sound of machines running.
The false alarm has passed, everyone gradually relaxed, and the inspectors continued to inspect, while the rest of the staff were still at their posts and had to do today's work well.
People who know a little bit of inside information don't look as relaxed as others.
A group of people in the nuclear power plant tensed their nerves. They don't know what is emitting the electromagnetic pulse underground, but they can be sure that there must be a great threat underground.
——That thing is constantly absorbing nuclear radiation, and its appetite has been getting bigger and bigger since the first pulse.
Just to be on the safe side, the nuclear power plant is about to shut down until they find out the real reason for the unprovoked electromagnetic pulse.
Today is the last day before shutting down.
It might be the longest day of their lives.
Not half an hour after the work order was restored, the second wave of electromagnetic pulse came suddenly.
The air is light, transparent and weak, and no one takes it seriously. However, when the electromagnetic pulse is released, the air becomes the deadliest shackle, the heaviest burden, and condenses into a mountain in a short moment. Immediately, the landslide collapsed, and the powerful coercion from the explosion swept across, and a large number of people and machines fell to the ground.
This is the most powerful pulse and the last preview.
More than ever, everyone hopes that the nuclear power plant will return to normal as quickly as before. However, people's wishes have not been fulfilled. In the suffocating air, the system is weakly paralyzed, and the nuclear power plant has become a silent cage.
"What the hell is going on?!" Some people have already been injured in the electromagnetic pulse attack. When the danger is approaching, ordinary people, although they don't have the spider sense, also have the sixth sense for no reason. They all get nervous and ask loudly.
The high-level executive who was swept to the ground got up, was silent for a second, made a decisive decision, and shouted: "Run! Run!"
He was right, but that rightness came too late.
Because the answer to people's "what's going on" question, apart from his shout of "Run", and two seconds later, the earth trembled violently.
earthquake!
Worse than an earthquake!
People screamed, ran around, and ran to the safety exits, some of them did not forget to turn off the machine switch before escaping, and in this instant, as if telepathic, he turned his head and glanced at the center of the nuclear power plant.
Eye canthus split.
The ground at the center of the nuclear power plant has been arched and cracked from the bottom, as if something huge is about to burst out of the ground.
The speed of the unknown monster breaking through the ground is one hundred times, one thousand times, ten thousand times faster than everyone imagined. It has absolute size and absolute strength. It's easy to get ahead.
With the light of the setting sun coming in from the four windows, someone saw the moment when the thing emerged.
He immediately screamed out, like watching a horror movie.
The scarier thing than watching a horror movie is finding yourself in a horror movie.
What came out was not a machine, not a tank, but a gigantic monster taller than a skyscraper.
The monster's long limbs were on the ground, with hooks on all four feet, and a flat body, like a huge cockroach, with a pair of scarlet eyes staring like a devil, coldly watching the people fleeing on the ground.
It easily broke free from the shackles of the ground and stood up mammothly, and the people on the ground suddenly became tiny ants.
Are Transformers big enough?
It is much, much bigger than Transformers, and every time it moves, it can crush the bones of countless people and machines, and the sound of bones breaking is so weak that it is completely lost in its actions.
The nuclear power plant became a sea of horror, and the heart-piercing cry spread desperately and weakly: "Monster, it's a monster—"
That was the Leviathan from the ground. After waking up, he began to slaughter and eat frantically.
It kills people, but it doesn't eat people. What it wants to eat are all kinds of nuclear materials in the nuclear power plant.
It will become more powerful during the feeding frenzy.
This is just the beginning of the nightmare.
The army helicopter that rushed over quickly took pictures of this nightmare. The army's massed fire did not deter the monster at all, but forced it to stop eating and launch more violent attacks on humans.
After another massacre, its thick long legs turned around and headed outside the nuclear power plant.
"Not good." A soldier with keen intuition turned pale with shock, "It's leaving!"
"It must be trapped here!"
At the same time, Tony and Rhodes in New York also received news.
They were planning to go home, but when the urgent news came, the expressions of the two of them changed at the same time. It was impossible for either of them to pretend that nothing had happened, and turn around to set foot on the way home.
Immediately set off to support, this is the decision Tony and Rhodes made immediately.
Iron Man and War Machine roared away in the air.
"What the hell is that?" Tony asked.
Perhaps there is no need to know what it is right now, it is enough to know that it poses a great threat to human beings.
And in the short time between the monster's emergence and the word spreading, this great threat has already had a name of its own.
MUTO.
They call it "Muto".
