Destruction of S.H.I.E.L.D. Facilities

The Destruction of S.H.I.E.L.D. Facilities was one of the final steps in Sibyl's plan to destroy S.H.I.E.L.D., by making Nathaniel Malick order the Chronicom fleet to destroy all known facilities of the organization.
==Background==
Due to the obliteration of Chronyca-2 by the Shrike, the Chronicom Hunters decided to turn Earth into their new home planet, and saw only one obstacle to their plan: S.H.I.E.L.D..Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: 6.13: New Life During weeks, the Chronicom Predictor Sibyl orchestrated a vast campaign in order to remove S.H.I.E.L.D. from history, but her actions were constantly thwarted by a group of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents under Alphonso Mackenzie's leadership, even causing the elimination of her entire group of hunters.Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: 7.06: Adapt or Die
Having escaped through the power grid, Sibyl sealed an alliance with Nathaniel Malick, as they shared a common objective of eliminating S.H.I.E.L.D.Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: 7.07: The Totally Excellent Adventures of Mack and the D Malick was given permission to make contact with the Chronicoms, and notably informed them of his capture of Jemma Simmons, who was the key to find Leo Fitz, identified by Sibyl as the only thing preventing Sibyl from achieving her conquest of Earth.Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: 7.11: Brand New Day
==Destruction==
Since Jemma Simmons was in Nathaniel Malick, Sibyl decided to deal a fatal blow to the version of S.H.I.E.L.D. that existed in the 1980s where her enemies had settled. Thanks to Kora, who sabotaged the electrical installation of the Lighthouse after she had been captured and locked up in the base, Sibyl was able to access files giving her the location of every known active S.H.I.E.L.D. base.
As the fleet of Chronicom Destroyer Ships called by Malick arrived, Sibyl transmitted them the coordinates of these new targets. Malick, who was enraged as he was unable to determine where Leo Fitz was hiding even after digging through Simmons' memories, then contacted the vessels and ordered them to fire. As a result, the spacecrafts fired powerful energy beams onto their targets, causing the obliteration of several S.H.I.E.L.D. facilities, including the Hub and the Triskelion, resulting in the loss of countless lives.
==Aftermath==
With nearly all its facilities being destroyed, S.H.I.E.L.D. suffered a crippling blow, but was not eliminated. Actually, several agents, including Brandon Gamble, Grace Mulcahey and Victoria Hand, survived the massive attack. They then picked up a coded transmission, which directed all of them to an old S.H.I.E.L.D. safehouse, located in a bar formerly known as The Krazy Kanoe, with instructions to bring all the 0-8-4s in their possession.
Unlike the other facilities, the Lighthouse was not targeted by the Chronicom Destroyer Ships due to its ability to withstand such an assault. Instead, Nathaniel Malick sent John Garrett plant some bombs in the Lighthouse, but the destruction of the base was limited. Having survived the attack and received the signal as well, Phil Coulson and his agents were able to reconnect with the other agents at The Krazy Kanoe.Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: 7.12: The End is at Hand
Despite having been nearly exterminated, S.H.I.E.L.D. would thus survive the destruction of its facilities, and the surviving agents were placed under the authority of a new Director, Deke Shaw, so that the organization could be rebuilt after the fleet of Chronicom vessels were taken to a different timeline.Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: 7.13: What We're Fighting For
