c196 The old general on the stage [Among all things]
“What will happen to those friends of yours?”
Bucky, who was so angry, spoke in a low voice, his hoarse voice like an old bellows in the silent cabin,
“No matter what happens, I will face it.”
At this moment, the engine of this “Quinjet” is sailing at high altitude at full power,
Feeling the pain transmitted from his limbs and bones, Steve Rogers gasped for breath, feeling the gap as if he had returned from the edge of death to reality. His whole body seemed to be fished out of a deep pool, and sweat was mixed with it. The blood that comes from the battle uniform,
Just as Black Widow Natasha carried the two seriously injured people onto the Quinjet, she injected them with a cardiac analgesic.
It is ensured that after boarding the fighter plane, Steve Rogers and the two still have the most basic ability to control the fighter plane.
And the Winter Soldier/Oxer – “Bucky” gradually woke up from his confusion and chaotic thinking.
The mental brainwashing imprint of Hydra and the fragmented memory information mixed in the brain. What happened during the period when I lost my subjective consciousness?
The pain and despair of dying.
He looked bitterly at the claws he stretched out, which no longer looked like human shapes. The gray-black hard cuticle covered the originally broken scales.
Substances as densely packed as virus hyphae were intertwined in the horrifying huge gaping wounds on his body, filling the gaps and stopping the flowing blood mixed with black flocculent substances.
Ordinary humans who suffered such injuries would have died on the spot, but not only did they not die, they could still feel the “things” churning in their bodies.
The kind of “living creature” that has a close symbiotic relationship with itself and influences each other,
Bucky could clearly feel that it seemed to have an independent consciousness that was not under his control.
Is he probably no longer a human being?
This seems even more unacceptable than a killing machine brainwashed and controlled by Hydra.
After all, the idea of ”people who are not of my race must have different minds” is deeply rooted in human beings. After all, even if they are the same human beings, they will still discriminate and attack each other.
What’s more, a monster that has completely lost its human form?
At this moment, Bucky deeply understood that he could no longer return to the peaceful life he had in the past.
Perhaps, having committed numerous crimes and having his hands stained with the blood of countless innocent people, he should not have been alive in the first place.
“I don’t know if I deserve this, Steve, I’ve made a lot of mistakes,”
Perhaps feeling something in his heart, Steve Rogers, who noticed Bucky leaning on the cockpit, turned his head with cold sweat on his forehead and gritted his teeth.
While using the standard emergency medical equipment in the Quinjet to treat himself, he stared at Bucky who looked confused and determined.
With encouragement and comfort, he said in a deep voice,
“The things you did in those years are not your fault. You were forced and you had no choice.”
“Bucky! No matter what time, I will stand next to you!”
“When I help you clarify everything, deal with the rest of the Winter Soldiers, and let the truth come to light, I will ask Tony and the others to develop a serum that can turn you back into a human!”
“I ask you to make amends for your past mistakes and become a new member of the Avengers. Then we can fight together again!”
“hope so.”
Listening to Steve Rogers enjoying the future, Bucky also had a smile on his lips, although he also thought that this beautiful vision was difficult to realize,
My best friend has always been like this – no matter what, he is too idealistic.
Similarly, the S.H.I.E.L.D. Quinjet, disguised and transformed by the Decepticon Starscream, also broadcast the conversation between the two in real time to Link, who was following closely behind.
In this regard, Link’s evaluation is:
“I can’t hold it any longer.”
In Link’s view, Steve Rogers is already a little crazy. According to the current situation, it is no longer important who attacked the United Government Building.
Captain America, who was supposed to be loyal and a symbol of America, in order to protect a notorious Hydra criminal, did nothing more than “defect”.
If it weren’t for the world-class doomsday crisis that was about to usher in later, Tony Stark, who took the overall situation into consideration, took the initiative to find Steve Rogers and forgive him for killing his father.
With the fragmented Avengers reunited, it’s hard to imagine how the future will develop and how they will defend themselves against their enemies.
For the various visions promised by Steve Rogers, in Link’s eyes, they are almost equivalent to “wash away in the golden basin after finishing this job.” He is like an old general on the stage – with flags all over his body.
But none of this matters anymore,
Time passed slowly, and the Quinjet, which had been sailing at high speed, would soon arrive at the destination of their trip – Siberia.
The pale snow, the cold wind, and the black frozen soil of Siberia cover the earth,
Almost no one could imagine that on this ground covered by snowfields, there is a secret research base hidden in this harsh environment that can be called no man’s land.
The mountain was hollowed out and it took more than ten years to build a Hydra base used to cultivate killing machines like the Winter Soldier, a secret intelligence station, and develop, manufacture and experiment with new weapons.
A figure quietly appeared in the vast white snow, wrapped in thick warm clothing, and walked to the top of the mountain with gloves on.
It is Zemo who is the mastermind behind the Avengers who has not been exposed for a long time and is deliberately trying to dismantle the Avengers.
The dark brown frozen soil is mixed with white snow, and a thick metal gate embedded in the hard rock is revealed.
With a look of surprise on his face, he quickly walked to the closed alloy door. The old gate device on the wall nearby had been in a low temperature environment all year round. The oil used for lubrication had long dried up or been frozen.
“哐——哐——哐——”
Using the chisel hammer in his hand, he smashed the gate device hard again and again.
After removing the ice attached to the surface of the gate device, Zemo took out the red-covered code book in his arms.
According to the deciphered cipher text, the button on the gate device was pressed. After a while,
“Kakaka-”
The metal gate recalled the sound of intensive mechanical rotation. It seemed that this ancient but reliable mechanical device was the only one that could resist the invasion for a long time.
The door, which is one meter thick and made entirely of alloy, opens a gap that allows one person to pass through.
Quickly walking through the long and narrow concrete corridor, Zemo entered the base.
This base occupies a very important position in his plan.
But Zemo was not in a hurry to find those Winter Soldiers who were frozen and dormant.
Instead, he took out a brand new Nokia mobile phone from his pocket, and said in a deep voice, as if muttering to himself,
“What should I do next?”
“Kukukaka——”
The smart device in his hand suddenly “split into pieces”, folded and deformed, turning into a small metal monster with sharp mechanical legs like a spider. The Decepticon logo on the forehead was clear and eye-catching.
The insect-shaped fine mouthparts open and close up and down, and the small sharp teeth are closely arranged, making this spider-shaped Decepticon look delicate and dangerous.
The mechanical one-eye shining with azure blue light stared closely at the human being in front of him, and the hoarse and deep mechanical voice immediately echoed,
“Colonel Zemo, you did a great job.”
“But that’s as far as it goes.”
“Because you’ve lost your value.”
“Use your last remaining energy for the great Creator!”
“Puff——”
Metal spikes ejected from the tail end of this spider-shaped Decepticon,
Under Zemo’s disbelieving gaze, he raised his hands tremblingly, covered his slit neck, and collapsed to the ground.
The sweet and fishy blood poured into the throat along the cut wound and into the lungs,
“Cough cough cough——”
On his deathbed, Zemo’s eyes were still full of confusion.
He didn’t understand why the Decepticon who was the first to contact him and promised to help him completed his “revenge” step by step against the Avengers who destroyed his home and caused the death of his relatives in “Sokovia”.
On the eve of the disintegration of the Avengers, he will kill himself as a “collaborator”.
He doesn’t even understand why? !
Although Zemo was still wary of these inhuman existences before, because he knew that “there is no free lunch in the world”,
The Decepticon who suddenly finds and offers to help him for no reason, and completes his revenge without asking for anything in return, must have a more profound purpose behind it.
Perhaps, they also want to disintegrate and defeat the Avengers?
But greed and the overwhelming power of the Decepticons, as well as their ability to dominate the Internet,
Zemo, who was proud and able to use these alien monsters to complete his revenge, agreed to the Decepticons’ request.
From being wary at the beginning, to experiencing the plan being implemented too smoothly again and again, Zemo felt a little elated.
With the cooperation of the Decepticons, Zemo’s plan didn’t go too smoothly.
The pseudo-spy Decepticon disguised as Bucky the Winter Soldier is almost no longer the same. Compared with the danger he originally planned to put himself in, it is safer and more real. It is very suitable as a means of framing.
In the future, I can perfectly serve as the psychological evaluation doctor contacted by the detention base, affecting the electromagnetic pulse interference that destroys the circuit system of the entire detention base.
All were successfully and perfectly realized with the help of the Decepticons.
While mocking the Avengers for their hypocrisy and incompetence, Zemo was also glad that his choice to cooperate with the Decepticons was not wrong.
But he also became more and more frightened, walking on thin ice, because Zemo suddenly realized that his participation did not seem to be needed.
The Decepticons are enough to accomplish everything in his plan,
His own existence has become somewhat dispensable, and he has become a puppet of the mysterious black hand that cannot be seen behind the scenes.
But there is no turning back for him. In order to realize his desire for revenge, Zemo is willing to do anything.
In fact, Zemo’s guess is not completely wrong. All of this is naturally the instruction of Link. Link must control everything in his own hands and ensure that the plot develops in the direction he controls.
The spider-shaped Decepticon moved its sharp legs, making a snapping sound with the hard concrete floor, and came to Zemo, who was still staring at death.
It opened its extended and narrow metal legs and penetrated into Zemo’s mouth.
The cold metal sharp object quickly scratched the soft mouth,
Zemo, who was not completely dead, watched helplessly as the fist-sized mechanical monster moved its metal legs and penetrated into his body through his mouth.
And if there are others watching at this moment, they can clearly see,
Zemo collapsed on the ground, a lump gradually bulging in his throat, deep fear stagnated in his eyes, his arms trembling and struggling,
Feeling the cold and stinging in his abdomen, Zemo closed his eyes in despair.
But the next moment, an inexplicable chill swept through his dying consciousness,
“Squeak-”
The monster in his body seemed to pierce something and release some substance,
Zemo soon felt that his consciousness was gradually withdrawing,
The fatal wound in his throat was gradually covered by liquid silver metal, and the wound was filled and “sutured”,
“?”
He raised his arm stiffly, and his dying consciousness stared at it in astonishment through the corner of his eyes,
Unspeakable fear once again filled Zemo’s heart,
Because he had no idea of conveying any instructions to his body, on the contrary, Zemo at this moment could hardly feel the rest of his limbs,
himself It was as if the control of the body was taken away.
“Crack–”
It seemed that he was not used to it and exerted too much force. “Zemo”, or more precisely “Zemo’s body”, accidentally broke his arm and dislocated his bones when he stood up.
This abnormality violated the normal joint movement of humans, but it did not affect the movement of the limbs at all.
The cold metal material in the body slid through the texture under the skin and penetrated into the bones,
connecting the dislocated and twisted bone joints and returning them to their original position.
“Crack–”
The twisted arm returned to normal again, but the fear and worry in Zemo’s heart did not dissipate at all.
Has he turned into a monster?
His body was out of control, his face was stiff, he caught the reflection of the gray glass on the surrounding walls, and he could even see the “silver substance” flowing in his eyes.
“What is this!?”
The next moment, light blue characters appeared in Zemo’s eyes, or more precisely, in his retina.
〈New Human-ZRT-0793〉
〈Constructing a simulated transmission channel…〉
〈[Among All Things] Project Test Begins〉
“?”
“What the hell?”
Zemo was in a trance, with doubts and fear mixed in his remaining consciousness.
Now, he only felt that he was deprived of the connection with this body, like a numb consciousness stuffed into a puppet, useless,
unable to control and dominate his actions.
At this moment, the Quinjet driven by Steve Rogers also slowly landed on the flat ground not far from the base.
He had no idea what kind of horrific changes were happening in the Hydra base, and what profound impact it would have on the future of this world…
