Chapter 17: The Terrorist Have Long Been Wiped Out? This Plague Doctor Can Really Resurrect The Dead!
Hearing what Tony Stark said, Inside SHIELD, All the agents couldn't help thinking about the previous information on the Plague Doctor. He seems to be able to resurrect the dead. Thinking of this, they had a huge sense of anticipation. They wanted to see how this Playboy billionaire would react to seeing corpses come back to life.
"Ahem". Nick Fury coughed and said; "Let's not focus on this, what we should really care about is how SHIELD should deal with what comes next". While speaking, he was still focused on the light curtain, wanting to see what would happen next.
...
On the screen of the light curtain. Tony was still thinking, when those two terrorists who were already dead, cut up and put together again stood up unsteadily! His breathing seemed to stop seeing such an incredible scene.
"This… how… wha"... "Are they really alive"? He widened his eyes, looking at those terrorists, he kept stuttering and was unable to speak from extreme fear. Doctor Yinsen on the other hand, he was so frightened that he passed out.
Seeing such a scene, people watching the light curtain couldn't help laughing.
"Pfft hahaha!, I've already taken a screenshot! It's rare to see such a look on Tony Stark's face"!
"It's crazy"! "Is Tony Stark's acting skills so good? I don't see any flaws"!
"I've done acting before"... "This is definitely not just acting! Tony Stark's expression is impossible to fake! This Plague Doctor is real, the Foundation is real, and those Special Containments are also real"!
"Are you crazy"! "If these things are real, the world is doomed"!
"I think what he said is reasonable, although it's terrifying to think… but, everything on this light curtain might really be true".
"..."
Southern California, Air Force base….
"It's Tony"! Colonel Rhodes who had been searching for Tony said in shock. He quickly focused on the light curtain, trying to get any clue as to where he's been held, so he could rescue him.
....
Inside the cave.
After a long while, Tony gradually calmed down. He muttered to himself; "He... he really did it"! "If that's the case, then that Sculpture, is actually… real"! he looked at the two terrorists, his eyes were filled with horror.
At this moment, Doctor Yinsen finally woke up. Seeing those two walking corpses, he widened his eyes, muttering to himself in disbelief; "What the hell"? "Am I still dreaming?" He was shocked, but gradually accepted this fact. Then, his extreme fear suddenly turned to excitement.
On the other side, The Plague Doctor has regained his calm and said: "Okay, the cure has been completed"! Gentlemen, it's time for us to leave here"...
But just then, Yinsen couldn't help asking; "Mr. Plague Doctor, these two people were already dead, did you just... revive them"? There was excitement in his voice. It was incredible to see the dead being resurrected through surgery! For a doctor like him, he is also awed by such a surgery that can resurrect the dead. Even tho the resurrected don't seem to be perfect.
"Ah yes, in a manner of speaking". You see things too simply, doctor"! The Plague Doctor stood up and walked towards the exit while speaking; "Expand your horizons". "Life and death, sickness and health, these are amateur terms for amateur physicians". "There is only one ailment that exists in the world of men, and that is the Pestilence, and nothing else"! "Make no mistake, they were very ill, all of them".
Yinsen was stunned. He has studied medical science for a long time, but in front of this Plague Doctor that can even resurrect the dead through surgery, he is indeed an amateur. Even so, he still chose to follow the Plague Doctor and walked out of the cave.
Tony hesitated for a bit, and chose to keep up. He remembered what this Plague Doctor just said; "There is only one ailment in this world, and that is the Pestilence. And nothing else"! Both Yinsen and Tony really wondered what this Pestilence was?
They walked out of the cave, but what they saw completely shocked them. Tony sucked in a breath of cold air and felt extreme fear rushing to the soles of his feet!
Outside the cave, all the terrorists had been killed, or 'cured' by the Plague Doctor! Standing outside, densely packed, their eyes were all empty while their faces looked devoid of anything. Many had limbs connected to the wrong places and some even had their jaws dropping, literally!
This scene was like a real life horror movie. It was extremely terrifying! And those who saw this scene had an indescribable sense of horror wash over them!
"Damn... these things… are they monsters from hell"?
"Fuck!!! This is too fucking terrifying"!
"Oh my god"! It looks like a wave of zombies! Shit Isn't this too disastrous"?
"These things were all killed by the Plague Doctor and then resurrected"? "This is like a set of a supernatural film"!
"..."
SHIELD.
"Gasp"! Seeing this horrible scene, all the SHIELD agents couldn't help sucking in a breath of cold air. "Quick, Hurry up and contact the Special Opps team that was sent before! And temporarily cancel the plan"! Nick Fury gave a decisive order.
So many terrorists were all silently killed by this Plague Doctor, and all of them were made into the so-called Special Containment Object-049-2.
The team sent out before, if they are identified as a source of this Pestilence by this Plague Doctor, wouldn't that just be looking for death? Such a dangerous anomaly... Let's leave it in the hands of that foundation for containment!
"Damn... this plague doctor… isn't he too crazy"?
"Who said this thing is not difficult to contain"? "If you have the guts, try and contain it yourself"!
"This plague doctor is simply a lunatic! A lunatic! What the hell is this Pestilence"?
"..."
Some SHIELD agents cursed, while others stood there, thinking how stupid it was to think this anomaly might be a good guy and easy to contain. Nick Fury on the other hand was lost in thought. What the Plague Doctor just said kept popping up in his mind. He felt strangely drawn to his ideas, as if what he said was completely logical and made sense.
....
Kamar-Taj.
"This Plague Doctor should be a creature with a special ability, but mentally unstable, or maybe he was deceived". Baron Mordo said. The mages nodded and agreed with him.
"What this Plague Doctor said may not necessarily be false"... The Ancient One suddenly spoke. Baron Mordo was taken aback. The Ancient One continued.
"There are many dimensions in this universe, no one can truly determine what the truth is".
"Maybe what we see is just the appearance of others, but this Plague Doctor sees the true essence of people".
"If the Pestilence he talks about really exists, would we come to the same conclusion he has"?
