Overwatch Invasion of American Comics

Chapter 20 Countdown to Death

"30! 29! 28..."

William stared at the countdown number, his heart was beating faster and faster, and his face was covered with sweat.

In order to understand the secrets of the Skeleton Gang, he prepared a careful plan, even thinking about the escape route, but he never imagined that there would be a terrible self-destruct program in the USB flash drive!

Looking around, seeing no one was paying attention to him, he ruffled his tangled hair.

In those blockbuster movies, the self-destruct device was a very scary thing. He couldn't imagine how powerful the self-destruct device would be after it exploded.

"24! 23! 22..."

William pressed the computer's power switch hard, but the switch seemed to be broken, and there was no response at all. He began to regret why he rented such a broken computer. It killed people at a critical moment!
"Have it!"

He glanced at the laptop's battery again, thinking that if he cut the power completely and shut down the computer, he should be able to stop the countdown to self-destruct.

Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated, and mustered up the courage to pull out the battery.

While getting the battery, he quickly hid under the table, lowered his head, and closed his eyes.

"Sir, what's the matter with you, sir?" A waitress not far away noticed William's strange appearance and hurried over and asked with concern.

"Don't come here, don't come here! It's dangerous here!" William opened his eyes just in time to see the long legs of the waitress, and he waved his hands in fright.

The waitress girl looked at William like a fool, thinking that this person must not be mentally ill, right?

William was worried that the U disk would suddenly explode when the power was cut off, so he hid, but the explosion did not happen, and he sat back in his seat again.

Generally, a computer without a battery should have been powered off long ago.

But when William sat back in his seat, he was surprised to see that the computer hadn't been turned off, and even its screen wasn't dimmed, with the familiar Skeleton Gang logo, and the countdown to self-destruction was still going on!
"20! 19! 18..."

why?William's eyes widened. How did the laptop continue to work without electricity?Could this be haunted in broad daylight?
Thinking of this, William looked at the USB flash drive that was still flashing blue. Maybe the computer has nothing to do with this USB flash drive?Maybe he self-destructed by unplugging the USB drive and it should be over.

But when his hand just touched the USB flash drive, he hesitated again.

He felt that what he could think of, the maker of the USB flash drive must have also thought of it. The computer can work without electricity. This is too weird. Maybe the moment he pulls out the USB flash drive, the self-destruct device will explode!
No, this method will not work!
If it didn't work, he could only run out with his laptop in his arms, away from cafes and crowded places, maybe this would reduce the damage.

He began to hate himself for not being a hacker, who might be able to disable the self-destruct countdown.But it's useless to think about it now, he has to leave here quickly.

etc!hacker?
Just when he was holding the computer and wanted to run, he suddenly thought of something.He thought of the reward he had drawn in the Overwatch system before, that Sombra skill card!

"I can invade anything, and anyone..." Sombra's beautiful figure appeared in the air.

Sombra: Hacking: This skill can hack into any network, computer or electronic device.

Note: This skill card is a one-time consumable and can only be used once.

"Athena, Hacking!" With no time to hesitate, William immediately used this skill card.

In an instant, the entire laptop was swept by a purple halo. This halo appeared very quickly and then disappeared very quickly. The red light that was originally on the USB flash drive stopped blinking and turned purple.

"16! 15! 14."

The countdown to death has finally stopped.

William kept panting, and the clothes behind him were soaked with sweat. He drank the coffee in his cup in one gulp, and finally regained his composure.

Yesterday he opened the box and found Sombra's skill card. This skill card can only be used once, so William decided not to use it unless it was absolutely necessary.

I didn't expect that this kind of moment would come so soon. Fortunately, I have Sombra's skills, otherwise William would be in trouble today.

At the moment when the hacking was released, William also saw the structure of the entire USB flash drive. There was no tracking and positioning device in the USB flash drive, and the self-destruct device inside had been successfully destroyed.

There is a deeper storage space hidden inside the USB flash drive. This space requires a second-level password to unlock, and a person's fingerprint is required.

This is all the information that William saw. He only used the hacking skills once, and he basically analyzed the secrets of the USB flash drive, but he needed the fingerprint of that person for the deeper secrets.

Maybe when he succeeds in obtaining the hero Sombra, he will be able to completely unlock the secret of the USB drive.

Not to mention anything else, he escaped another disaster. If he hadn't drawn the hacking skill card before, he would have died just now.

Thinking of this, he looked at the computer screen again, and the original image of the Skeleton Gang was slowly changing.

The white skull was rendered red like blood, and the black snake in its mouth gradually disappeared.

Under the skull, six tentacles resembling octopus arms appeared, and behind them was a black circular background...

William's complexion suddenly changed, he was very familiar with this sign, because this is what the Marvel world is notorious for—

Hydra!
Hydra is a super villain organization in the Marvel world. Its name comes from the giant snake Hydra in Greek mythology. According to legend, it has nine heads. If one of the heads is cut off, two heads will be born immediately. .

This has also become the purpose and creed of Hydra, symbolizing its endless life and infinity.

During World War II, the Red Skull was obsessed with mythology and ancient powers, and found the Rubik's Cube according to Norse mythology.Soon he betrayed his mother, and wanted to use the power of the Rubik's Cube to win World War II and dominate the whole world.

The Allies created the Strategic Science Corps, which used super soldier serum to create the first superhero in history—Captain America.Captain America led his Howling Commandos, defeated Hydra, and crushed the Red Skull's conspiracy.

In the end, the Red Skull disappeared into the bright light of the Rubik's Cube, and both Rubik's Cube and Captain America sank into the icy ocean.

"It's really bald." Without the threat of a self-destruct explosion, William pulled out the USB drive and carefully put it in his pocket.

Although I don't know what the secret in the USB flash drive is, as long as it is related to Hydra, once discovered by others, it will cause an uproar all over the world!
　I wonder if anyone guessed it?
