In Marvel, People are Kamen Rider - Chapter 21
Misi Karumbak’s body changed in the blink of an eye.
Her originally rustic but elegant figure had now transformed into a monstrous entity.
The silver-white body shimmered in the sunlight, as if flowing with a faint silver river.
Every inch of her skin seemed to come alive, emitting a mixture of elegance and danger with each breath.
Her deep, pitch-black eyes resembled an abyss. Adorned with decorations resembling feathers and bird beaks, she appeared like an elegant crane.
“Monster! You’re a monster!”
The girls’ eyes filled with fear as they screamed: “I’ll call the police and have you, this monster, arrested!”
“You won’t get the chance!”
Misi’s gaze remained indifferent, as if she were looking down on some weeds, observing the girls who had just bullied her.
Immediately, strands of silver-white energy feathers flew out rapidly from her body, entering the bodies of the girls before her.
The girls, who were previously shouting, couldn’t speak anymore. They fell to the ground one by one.
In Misi’s waiting gaze, several girls quickly got up again.
However, they didn’t complete their evolution and quickly turned into sand, collapsing into death.
“What have I done!”
Misi, now calm again, looked at the sand covering the ground in panic, unable to believe what she had done.
She took a deep breath, suppressing her panic, and walked briskly out of the restroom.
“That’s strange, isn’t the restroom being cleaned?”
Several passersby looked at Misi’s back in confusion.
…
“Mrs. Myers, don’t worry! If we catch Andrew, we’ll inform you immediately!
If Andrew returns home, I hope you’ll inform me as soon as possible too!”
In Andrew Myers’ home, Coulson bid farewell to the tearful Mrs. Myers.
As he stepped out, he sighed and glanced at the numerous vehicles parked not far from the street.
Obviously, it wasn’t just S.H.I.E.L.D. keeping an eye on this family.
“Director! I’ve just left Andrew’s house.”
Coulson immediately reported to Nick Fury:
“Everything seems normal. His wife and children don’t seem to know anything, at least on the surface.
However, his wife provided me with some valuable information.
She said that one night, Andrew came home covered in blood, with his clothes bearing marks of being pierced by a knife.
Since that day, Andrew seemed to have undergone some changes.”
“Alright! I’ll look into it!”
After hanging up the phone, Coulson wiped his sweat and walked towards the red antique car parked by the roadside.
“Laura, looks like we’ll be busy these days!”
Coulson said to the car affectionately, then stepped on the gas pedal, swiftly driving down the street.
Coulson was efficient in his work, with a clear train of thought.
“Andrew had blood on him and knife wounds, indicating he was involved in a fight.
So, did he attack someone, or was he attacked? No, Andrew was just fired that day, so he wouldn’t have been in the mood to rob someone. Besides, he has no criminal record.
He should have been the one being robbed! Therefore, when Andrew encountered the robbery, he accidentally awakened his abilities and turned into Ophion, killing the robbers!”
Coulson thought for a moment, his eyes brightening as he felt he had found the truth.
Just then! Coulson’s pupils contracted as if he noticed something.
He immediately made a sharp turn.
Bang! A tentacle slammed fiercely into the ground, creating a large pit in the cement.
“You bastard, what are you doing at my house! Are you threatening my wife and children!”
Andrew, now transformed into Ophion, jumped out from the side, looking at Coulson who had stabilized the vehicle, his expression full of anger.
“You’ve misunderstood! Andrew! I just want to help you!”
Coulson explained hastily to the suddenly appearing Andrew:
“We’ve investigated your situation and know everything you’ve been through, Andrew! It’s not your fault, it’s just that society has been too cruel to you! But continuing like this isn’t a solution. Opposing the U.S. government, you won’t live long! Have you thought about your wife and children? They rely on you for a living!
If you continue to be stubborn, how will they live?”
Hearing Coulson’s words, Andrew seemed to be moved, his anger seemingly diminishing, and fell silent.
“Then, do I still have a chance to turn back?”
Andrew raised his head and asked Coulson.
“Of course!”
Coulson nodded and said:
“Let me introduce myself, I’m a Level 6 agent from S.H.I.E.L.D.!”
Coulson took out his identification.
“S.H.I.E.L.D.?”
Andrew furrowed his brows.
“That’s right! S.H.I.E.L.D.! It stands for Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division. It’s a department specialized in dealing with superpowered individuals, aliens, and people like you, uh… the New Humans! We are directly under the command of the United Nations Security Council and not affiliated with any specific country! As long as you agree to cooperate with our investigation and research, I assure you, your wife will get a good job, and your three children will receive a good education.”
Coulson laid out his conditions.
This was also approved by Nick Fury.
According to the investigation, Andrew hadn’t taken many lives.
Apart from the robbers he killed that night, he had only killed two wealthy individuals at the Jerom Intelligence banquet.
Those two wealthy individuals had done quite a few bad deeds, and killing them could even be considered cleaning up the streets.
So, Andrew’s sins weren’t much, and recruiting him into S.H.I.E.L.D. would be a good thing.
“Join S.H.I.E.L.D….”
Andrew was deeply tempted.
Compared to what Kyosuke Murakami had said about making humans slaves of Ophion, Coulson’s offer was much more appealing.
“But how can I trust you?”
Andrew immediately looked at Coulson and asked coldly: “How do I know you’re not in cahoots with Tony Stark, Jerom Lin, and those guys!
Aren’t you guys experts at consorting with each other?”
“You have no choice, Andrew! You can only trust me!”
Coulson got out of the car at this time.
He stretched out his hands, indicating that he wasn’t carrying any weapons.
He earnestly explained to Andrew: “The only choice you have is to join S.H.I.E.L.D.! You’ve offended Tony Stark and Jerom Lin, as well as the wealthy and powerful people in the United States. The police have started to hunt you down, and your wife and children are being watched!
Only by joining S.H.I.E.L.D. can you turn this around!”
