A secret underground base on the outskirts of Sokovia.
The heavy door of the base opened, and a brightly colored metal figure walked in accompanied by a man in a suit.
"I thought you weren't going to come."
Hill looked at the two of them and joked with a smile.
"Feel sorry."
Dr. Banna, dressed in a suit, nodded politely and apologized for being late.
The metal figure at the side stood still, opened the battle armor, and Tony walked out. He still had that cynical look on his face, and said nonchalantly: "Banner is attending a seminar, so he is late. Besides, he is off duty now. He has to go back after finishing the things here. We have to hurry up."
"Um."
Hill nodded. "We also want to resolve it as soon as possible. Of course, this depends on your efficiency."
After saying that, he turned and walked into a passage, "Let's go to the conference room first, they are all waiting for you."
Led by Hill, Banner and Tony came to the conference room.
At this time, Steve, Natasha, Barton and other key members were already present in the conference room, and they were all fully armed.
Steve was wearing a very familiar battle suit, a white and blue suit, which made him very conspicuous in the conference room. He was sitting in his seat seriously.
Black Widow Natasha wore a black tight battle suit, highlighting her perfect figure.
Hawkeye Barton was also wearing a black suit, with a quiver on his back and a long bow on the table.
Tony pulled out a chair and sat down. After looking around, he complained, "Where's the lead actor of Point Break? He hasn't arrived yet? I thought we were the only two who were late."
"Thor doesn't like the nickname you gave him."
Natasha responded jokingly.
Steve replied seriously, "He is on his way. Let us go first. He will arrive at the battlefield before the war is over."
"If I had known this would work, I wouldn't have to rush like this."
Tony shrugged and looked at the watch on his wrist. "What time do we leave?"
"You'll have to ask her."
Barton pointed at Hill and said, "This operation was arranged by SHIELD."
Hill walked to the main seat at the conference table and pressed a button. A castle built on a cliff was projected onto the table.
"We have found out that Hydra is hiding in the castle in the Sokovia Forest. They have built a solid defense line here, which is enough to resist the attack of hundreds of thousands of troops."
Hill pointed at the castle on the projection and could clearly see that there were many solid fortresses around the castle, with extraordinary defense capabilities. There might also be many dangerous bunkers that could not be scanned by satellites.
"So, this is our goal?"
Tony looked at the projected castle and immediately lost interest. "If you want me to clean up this illegal building, I can always dispatch dozens of missiles to carry out a full-scale bombing. After the bombing, I guarantee that you won't be able to find even half a complete brick."
Although Stark Industries is no longer involved in the military field, it is still easy to get a few efficient missiles.
If all else fails, he can easily hack into any country with intercontinental missiles and launch a few missiles nearby.
"We are not terrorists."
Hill looked at Tony and firmly rejected his idea, then added: "And destroying Hydra is only one of the missions. Our plan is to retrieve the Mind Scepter, which is now hidden in the castle. Although it is an alien product, we cannot determine whether it will be blown up by your missiles."
"Besides, this is not America. If we randomly launch missiles here, it could easily become an international incident. We have to pay attention to the international impact."
Hill solemnly warned Tony not to mess around.
"Okay, okay."
Tony shook his head in compromise. "Whatever. The result is the same anyway. But S.H.I.E.L.D. is finally reliable for once. At least you found the scepter before it was completely lost."
"Tony, you have to take this mission seriously."
Hill looked at Tony seriously, "We only have this one chance. If we can't get the scepter back, Hydra will definitely be on high alert, and we won't have a chance!"
"I have taken it very seriously, otherwise what is parked outside would not be my battle armor, but my sports car."
Tony stood up and said, "Okay, now that the goal is clear, let's get started. Dr. Banna has a meeting later."
…
…
…
In the forests of Sokovia.
The motorcycle roared in the forest, startling the birds and animals around.
Logan drove his newly bought second-hand motorcycle through the woods and finally stopped in front of an abandoned ranger's cabin.
Behind him, Victor and his companions followed closely in their cars.
Several people took off their helmets and looked at the shabby little house.
It seemed that no one had been to this house for a long time. The surrounding area was overgrown with weeds, and there was some moss on the wooden steps. The entire area was surrounded by lush trees, and sunlight shone through the gaps between the dense leaves.
"Maika asked us to wait here?"
Victor looked at the wooden house and couldn't help but complain: "Can't we find a better place to meet up?"
Logan was also somewhat helpless, "There's nothing we can do. This is the location they chose."
Logan got out of the car and walked into the cabin.
On the surface, their task was very simple. They just had to wait in the cabin for the contact person to arrive. They would hand over the goods to Logan and his team, and Logan and his team only had to take the goods back to the farm.
But in this seemingly simple mission, Logan sensed a strong sense of crisis.
After all, the Avengers are all in Sokovia, and basically all the original Avengers are gathered there. If you run into them, the consequences will be disastrous.
At this time, Victor and others also entered the wooden house.
The wooden house was very simple. As a temporary shelter for the forest rangers, it could basically only provide shelter from the wind and rain. There wasn't even a chair. Several people sat on the ground, waiting with bored looks on their faces.
As a result, I waited for more than an hour.
Logan kept looking at the time, and it was already past the agreed meeting time.
The long wait made Marcos and his companions complain continuously.
"Don't people here have a sense of time when doing things?"
Marcos stood by the window and kept looking out, but there was no living creature outside except a few birds in the trees.
Victor was also getting impatient waiting, "According to the time, they should have arrived half an hour ago!"
Restlessness gradually rose in the cabin.
Only Logan sat in the corner of the cabin with a frown on his face.
For some reason, he always had a bad feeling.
At this moment, the cell phone in his pocket suddenly rang. It was Maika calling.
As soon as the call was connected, a message came from Maca's end, "Logan, are you still at the agreed location?"
"exist."
Logan nodded in response, "But the contact person hasn't shown up yet."
"They can't come."
Maca's tone was a little anxious. "I just received news that the goods were hijacked by Hydra. This batch of goods is really important and must not be lost. I need you to hijack it back from Hydra."
Hearing this, Logan frowned immediately.
He doesn't want to have any contact with Hydra. This organization is even more dangerous than S.H.I.E.L.D.
At least S.H.I.E.L.D. can still abide by some legal constraints when doing things, but if they really get involved with Hydra, those guys can really do anything.
"Maka, Hydra is not easy to deal with."
Logan responded into the phone.
"I know they're dangerous."
Maca said anxiously, "But the goods must not be lost. You must think of a way to bring the goods back. This is really important."
Logan heard the urgency in Maca's tone and hesitated for a moment.
"We only have this one chance. If we fail to retrieve the goods, the consequences will be very serious. Logan, for the sake of the farm and for you and the professor to have a safe place, you must find a way."
Maika's voice came again.
Since this matter involved the shelter, Logan had no reason to refuse. He could only sigh helplessly, "Okay, I'll find a way."
"I'll send you the address right away."
After hearing Logan's agreement, Maca seemed to relax a lot and continued, "You guys should hurry over now. You must find a way to retrieve the goods."
After that, the call was hung up, and a text message followed, which was the coordinates of Hydra's hideout.
"What's wrong?"
Victor came over to ask, and Marcos and John in the back also looked curious. They didn't hear clearly the conversation between Logan and Maca.
"Something happened."
Logan sighed and simply told the information that Maca had mentioned.
After explaining, Logan stood up and sighed helplessly, "This batch of goods is obviously very important. We have to leave quickly."
"But...are we going to fight Hydra?"
Marcus thought this was really a fantasy. After all, Hydra's army was a headache for even the government forces. They were a thorn in the side of SHIELD. The power of just a few of them was obviously too small.
John also looked worried and felt that this was an impossible task.
Victor, on the other hand, looked excited. "What are you afraid of? I also led a team to fight against those guys during World War II. They are not as scary as you think."
Looking at the appearance of several people, Logan shook his head and said, "Stop talking nonsense. We can't refuse this mission. Let's go quickly and find a chance to sneak into Hydra. Then we can find a way to take the goods out."
Everyone looked at each other and could only nod helplessly, walked out of the cabin, and rode their bikes to their destination.
But after a while, they heard intensive gunfire coming from deep in the forest.
"There were gunshots."
Logan stopped the motorcycle and motioned for several people to stop behind him and carefully listen for the sound of gunfire coming from afar.
It can be heard that the fighting over there is very fierce. The sounds of machine guns, mortars, and howitzers can be heard continuously. It is like a war.
"That doesn't sound good."
Marcos looked solemn, listening carefully to the gunfire in the distance, "Could it be that it's not just the Hydra people who are snatching the goods, but there are others who have their eyes on that batch of goods and are competing with Hydra for it?"
Listening to the gunshots, it feels like other organizations have also approached Hydra to intercept its goods.
If this is true, judging from the fierce gunfire, the strength of that organization cannot be underestimated.
Logan frowned, vaguely guessing the reason for the widespread gunfire, and waved his hand and said, "Park the motorcycle here, we'll go over and take a look."
Everyone hid their motorcycles and ran quickly towards the location where the gunshots came from. When they got close, they slowly crouched down, leaned against a tree, and stared ahead carefully.
What comes into view is a very majestic mountain with a castle sitting on the top of the cliff. At this time, there is gunfire below, and groups of soldiers in the trenches are firing and moving through the woods.
"They are Hydra soldiers."
Victor noticed the Hydra logo on the soldiers' chests and recognized their identities. He then looked towards the location where the soldiers were attacking, frowning, "Who are they fighting against?"
On the other side, Logan frowned. After seeing the Hydra's lair, he was completely certain that the cargo that Maca mentioned was the Scepter of the Mind.
That's something both SHIELD and Hydra covet.
Logan hesitated a little. It was still not too late to leave. He looked towards the castle on the mountain where the Scepter of Mind was.
Almost one step away.
In the end, he did not choose to retreat. Perhaps this was an opportunity for them to completely muddy the waters.
Moreover, Logan remembered that there was super soldier serum in the castle, and the professor and Victor needed the serum to restore their bodies.
Bang!
Just as Logan was thinking, a loud noise suddenly erupted from the group of soldiers in front of him.
A laser shell fired from the air blasted the soldiers within ten meters of the explosion into pieces, with broken limbs and arms scattered everywhere and blood flowing all over the ground.
Logan looked up at the figure firing the weapon. The red battle suit was extremely eye-catching in the blue sky. The limbs were spraying blue flames from the thrusters as it flew quickly through the sky.
"It's Iron Man!"
He stared at the figure in the sky with a frown on his face. "It seems that the Avengers are one step ahead of us."
"What do we do now?"
Marcos looked at the battle with a worried look on his face. If they intervened in this situation, they would be beaten into a sieve in an instant by both sides!
"Wait and see what happens."
Logan remained calm and pulled several people into the bushes beside him, hiding them perfectly. He carefully observed the situation outside through the gaps between the bushes.
There are only four of them. Going out would be seeking death. It would be better for the Avengers to consume Hydra's troops and wait for an opportunity to seize the scepter.
…
At the same time, the battle on the Avengers' side was very fierce.
Steve moved back and forth between the trenches with a shield in hand, basically not using any firearms, but every enemy he encountered could only last for a second.
This World War II veteran hates Hydra so much that he is extremely ruthless in his attacks. His superb fighting skills combined with his indestructible round shield make him an invincible god of war!
Any trench he locked onto would basically be destroyed.
However, Hydra's counterattack was no joke. Artillery fired continuously, the rumbling sound of explosions was endless, smoke filled the trenches, and the roar of the explosions was deafening.
The soil was blown up by the artillery, and gravel and soil flew everywhere. The shock wave of the explosion caused the surrounding trees to sway.
But Steve was not panicked. His steps were steady and quick, as if he was a blue shadow. While running at high speed, his eyes were locked on one enemy after another, and he swung the round shield in his hand.
The round shield flashed a cold light under the firelight, like a stream of light, accurately hitting the enemy, then bouncing out and hitting another enemy again.
There were several consecutive bounces, and every time a soldier was knocked down by the shield. After the final bounce, the shield flew back to Steve, who caught it accurately and hung it back in his hand.
"That's...Captain America?"
Marcus looked at Steve in amazement and couldn't help but complain: "Is that thing in his hand a shield or a homing missile?!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Steve rushing to the enemy, swinging his fists continuously. Each punch was accompanied by a clear sound of breaking wind. With just one punch, no matter how tall the enemy was, he could be easily dealt with.
And in the air, the red and gold steel armor was continuously launching missiles like a bomber.
The Hydra fortresses exploded the moment they came into contact with the missiles. The solid fortresses were instantly turned into scorched earth, and the bodies of the Hydra soldiers flew out along with the stones and soil.
"Good job! At this rate, they will be able to kill all those Hydra bastards very soon!"
Victor couldn't help but feel secretly excited when he saw the Avengers were invincible in the battle.
After all, he had a bad impression of Hydra. They were real enemies during World War II.
But just as he finished speaking, there was a rumbling sound in the distance. Victor looked over and his expression suddenly changed. He couldn't help but swear, "Fuck, is that a tank?!"
"Your crow's mouth has come true."
Logan looked in the direction Victor was looking, and saw three tanks driving out from under the castle side by side. They turned their huge guns, locked onto the Avengers, and fired without hesitation.
boom!!
The deafening roar of artillery fire echoed, and shells whizzed through the air, blasting towards Steve and others.
At the same time, the anti-aircraft missiles in the corner also began to fire. The missiles locked by thermal imaging rushed towards Tony. No matter how Tony moved, he could not resist the pursuit of the anti-aircraft missiles. It was like a hyena, biting Tony tightly.
"Damn, these guys even have main battle tanks?!"
Natasha and Patton, who were cleaning up the battlefield in the rear, couldn't help but complain as they watched the shells flying.
Natasha pinched the headset and asked anxiously: "Captain, are you okay?"
Just now, the muzzles of the three tanks were all aimed at Steve.
"Ahem."
Steve coughed in the headset. He was lying on the ground, and the dirt raised by the explosion almost buried him. After sticking his head out of the dirt, he panted loudly into the headset, "It's okay for now, Tony, take care of those three guys."
"Captain, if you saw me being chased by three missiles that could kill me at any time, you shouldn't say such things!"
Tony's voice came, at this moment he was trying to get rid of the locked missile behind him.
…
"It seems that they won't be able to deal with Hydra in a short time."
Marcos looked at the deadlocked battlefield and said, "Let's go around and find a way to get into Hydra while no one is paying attention."
However, Logan showed no intention of moving and said calmly, "No hurry."
Roar!
Bang, bang, bang! !
Just as Steve was unable to raise his head due to the pressure from the shells and Tony was unable to take care of himself, a roar suddenly erupted from the depths of the jungle.
A huge green figure rushed out from the woods. Its huge body was running at such high speed that even the earth couldn't stop shaking.
At first glance, it looks like a heavy tank speeding at high speed, full of infinite suppressive power.
"Hulk, this guy is here too!"
Victor's pupils shrank. He had seen news reports about the Hulk's battles. During the New York battle, this big guy could blow up a spaceship with one punch!
"My God, this power, even from such a distance I can clearly feel the ground shaking."
Marcos looked horrified.
John couldn't help but gasp. He had only seen the Hulk on TV before, but seeing it with his own eyes was much more shocking than on TV.
"Not only is he here, but Thor is here too."
Logan remained very calm and looked up at the sky.
At this time, the sky was covered with rolling thunderclouds and dark clouds. Lightning flashed continuously in the dark clouds, and the rumbling sound was endless. The rough thunder and lightning seemed to split the sky and the earth as if they were going to split the sky and the earth. The startling thunder seemed to roar from the abyss.
Amidst the huge thunder and lightning, a galloping figure broke through the black clouds and attacked at high speed.
The fiery red cloak fluttered behind him, and all the thunder and lightning roared at the same time, as if welcoming their king. The sky was full of thunder, jumping and violently and harshly.
The thunder seemed to explode right in front of their eyes, and the lightning seemed to fall on their heads. Everyone looked up at the sky and felt suffocated!
