There was a strange silence in the laboratory. Then Wesley said, “Let me give you a lesson now. Our job as agents is not a scientific experiment. Even scientific experiments are accompanied by a lot of risks. We need to be decisive when necessary.”

“Take the number 0-8-4 item this time, Fitz. How did you judge the situation?” Wesley asked.

Fitz was stunned for a moment, then said hesitantly, “The radiation released by the item is 10, and there is abnormal activity inside. It is the energy of the Tesseract as fuel.”

“Stop, the energy in this is fueled by the energy of the Cosmic Demon. How much do you know about the Tesseract?” Wesley interrupted him and asked again.

“I don’t know much about the Tesseract. In school, I mostly studied the weapons developed by Hydra during World War II.”

“So is the energy of the Tesseract stable?”

“That depends on the situation…”

“Stop, answer my question, is the energy of the Tesseract stable?” Wesley interrupted him again.

“Stable.”

Wesley nodded. “The energy of the Tesseract is indeed stable. Although it looks like a nuclear bomb, if it explodes, it will be worse than a nuclear bomb. But the Tesseract is a very stable energy source. At this time, you should boldly take it down and break out of the siege. We are agents. We try to use concise words in battle. Don’t give us a bunch of professional jargon. You and Simmons are technicians, but you are also field agents. Don’t panic in battle.”

“Hey, you haven’t said what you were talking about just now.” Sky couldn’t stand it anymore.

Wesley looked at her and then said, “There’s a problem with the Peruvian military and police. They want item number 0-8-4. We could have dealt with the rebels, but they insisted on retreating and boarded the plane with us at the same time. So I asked Phil to deal with the woman alone, while Melinda and I deal with the others. The three of you stay in the lab and lock the door. Do you understand?”

“Really?” Sky asked with wide eyes in disbelief. “Aren’t they government armed?”

“Don’t think too highly of the government armed forces. SHIELD is careful of everyone even in the United States, every government agency. Did you see the military deployed in the Battle of New York? Even if they can’t arrive in time, what about the air force?”

Sky’s interest was piqued and he asked again enthusiastically, “Is there something going on here?”

“Please pay attention to the main problem now. Okay, the three of you lock the door. They can’t get in without weapons. Melinda? Are you here or going up with me?”

“I’ll go up with you.” With that, she turned and went out. Wesley followed her and then pointed to the door. Fitz hurriedly locked it and Wesley checked it before leaving.

On the second floor, five Peruvian military police officers were resting with some drinks. They chatted while Wesley took a bottle of wine and two glasses directly from the bar. He and Melinda May sat in the living room and poured two glasses of wine.

“Take a break. They probably won’t do anything until later. I wonder if Phil can deal with the woman.” Wesley handed over a glass of wine.

Taking Wesley’s drink, Melinda May took a sip and then said, “You don’t need to worry about him. It should be fine. There are five people here. How are you going to split it?”

“I think one of them will go down. The three people in the laboratory are easier to deal with. The remaining four people will restrain us. Once they catch one, we will definitely be afraid to do anything.”

“Not bad. So two people?”

“Actually, I’d rather shoot you, but considering the environment on the plane, I’d better do it.” Wesley drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, then leaned on the sofa and closed his eyes.

It didn’t take long, because the plane had begun to turn automatically into SHIELD’s scheduled route. Once they were far from Peru, they would be easily shot down even if the operation was successful.

One of the five left quietly. His target was the three weaklings in the lab. The remaining four began to approach Wesley and Melinda. Wesley suddenly opened his eyes and sat up, smiling at them.

“Do it,” one of them shouted. Although he did not speak English, Wesley could understand what he meant. He got up and strode over, and Melinda moved.

The other party had obviously discussed it. The four of them were divided into two groups, two against one. The two men who came at Wesley were ready to attack him from both sides. The two of them punched at the same time, one attacking Wesley’s face and the other attacking his abdomen. They cooperated quite well.

The other side was similar, but because of Melinda’s height, one attacked the head and the other attacked the legs.

Wesley smiled. Without even using his powers, he reached out with both hands, grabbed their wrists like lightning, and twisted them with all his strength. “Ah…” The two burly men bent their legs and went down on one knee at the same time, then used their other hands to pry Wesley’s hand away, hoping to escape his grasp.

On the other side, Melinda displayed superb skills. She jumped up lightly and grabbed the arms that attacked her head with both hands. Her legs wrapped around the other party’s head and she rolled to the side, bringing the other party to the ground. Then, without waiting for the other party to react, she punched the other party’s head and knocked him out.

Wesley, on the other hand, was much simpler. He suddenly let go of his hands and swung his right arm to hit the enemy on the left on the head. He pulled back and hit the enemy on the right on the cheek. He quickly followed him and kicked his head. Both of them fainted. When he turned back and saw that Melinda was almost done, he walked straight downstairs. At this time, the door of the experiment was being knocked on non-stop.

The three men in the lab looked nervously for weapons. Fitz took out the stun gun, but his hands kept shaking. Even though he knew the door of the lab was bombproof, he was still afraid. Simons was even more helpless. She could find nothing to use as a weapon, and Sky had found a wrench at random.

When Wesley came down, the Peruvian police officer who was smashing the door was surprised at first, then assumed a boxing stance, ready to fight Wesley. Wesley walked over quickly, and the other party threw a right hook directly at him. Wesley ducked and then punched him in the stomach, and then KO-ed him with a straight punch. His movements were clean and neat. These people were not his opponent at all, and the other party obviously did not know who he was.
