Things went to absolute shit. There was no other way to put it. This madman made an update on his game that no one expected, even our agents. For the love of god! almost everyone around his home and in his city were agents, SHIELD or not, yet none managed to get this information from him.
Four hundred agents, the best available for the surveillance and protection of this madman and yet, nothing.
Already, they had a lot of work with the creatures coming from the sea and the legions that saw him as a god but now, now it was worse. The monsters were getting stronger as did the civilian population and the current world order was about to get destroyed.
SHIELD's analysts were sure about it, all the sign were here. Most of the young population was getting behind this idea of venerating Mr Wagner and fighting in his name. While they could do nothing about their situations before, they now had the tools and this man was literally giving it for almost nothing.
Even the criminals were joining those damned legions. One of the most prolific: Sabertooth, a well-known mercenary slash terrorist, integrated the hunter legion or "the wolves of Wagner" as they were called by the different intelligence agencies.
In Africa, a young man tired by the infighting and atrocity committed by his liberators had started his own legion: the night legion. How he managed to get a computer or even play the game remain a mystery but he managed it and in doing so gained the gift that helped him overthrow his tormentors.
He gained the power of the coat of darkness, allowing him to be invisible as long as he could support it physically. He was the first to finish the quest of this new "deity" and the first to gain it's gift, as such the other legion's masters gave him the command of this new legion.
With a group of twenty people, they stormed the dictator stronghold and killed everyone inside. The next day, he declared himself leader of Uganda until a proper election where his people could really choose was prepared.
As a person, he could not care less about what the kid did but as the leader of SHIELD he was tasked by his superiors to investigate the matter. In his mind, he cursed them. Those old fool did not understand that things were changing. They kept clinging to an old order of power.
Now, everyone was able to get stronger as long as they put their mind to it. In some way, it made him feel small.
As he ordered his agents, he also asked agent Hills to prepare a meeting with Wagner. He needed to get a feel of the man in person.
