Hydra: Captain America, we want your serum!

Chapter 83 Hydra: Captain America, we want your serum!

"Yes, sir."

"Our people have reported that Coulson has already set off with his team, and he's also taken Captain America's search and rescue records with him."

"Judging from Coulson's series of deployments, they should be quite confident."

The Hydra senior undercover agent opposite Pierce immediately nodded and responded respectfully.

"Although Nick is always suspicious, he won't take any action unless he's absolutely certain."

Pierce then fell into deep thought.

Although he didn't know Nick Fury's intelligence sources, Pierce's understanding of Nick Fury and the actions taken by the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. spoke volumes.

Furthermore, with Pierce possessing a living example, the acceptance of such matters is even greater.

If the Winter Soldier has survived to this day after being modified by them, why can't Captain America?

So it seems there's a good chance Captain America is still alive.

"Sir, do you really believe Captain America is still alive?"

The voice of the high-ranking Hydra agent opposite him rang out again, and the other party began to ask for Pierce's opinion.

"That's not hard to believe, is it?"

Pierce took off his reading glasses and shrugged nonchalantly.

It seemed as if they were talking about some trivial matter.

"If Captain America is really still alive, would we need me...?"

At this point, the senior undercover agent made a throat-slitting gesture.

The meaning of this is self-evident.

A subtle, cold glint also flashed in Pierce's eyes.

Captain America is Hydra's old rival!

He led the Howling Commandos in a brutal attack against Hydra, inflicting immense losses on them.

Even their Hydra leader, Schmidt, was killed by Captain America!

After Captain America's death, his former lover, Carter, went completely mad and formed S.H.I.E.L.D. to fight Hydra relentlessly.

In the end, they wiped out Hydra in one fell swoop!

It can be said that Hydra has been submerged in the long river of history, and Captain America is undoubtedly the greatest contributor to this.

Hydra and Captain America are definitely sworn enemies.

However, Pierce quickly returned to normal.

She shook her head calmly: "No, you don't need to do anything, just leave things as they are."

Going against Captain America at this critical juncture would be tantamount to telling Nick Fury that S.H.I.E.L.D. has an undercover agent.

not to mention.

Times have changed!

It's not seventy years ago anymore!

Given Hydra's current situation, what's the big deal if Captain America is still alive?

What kind of trouble can a super soldier cause?

Besides that, there is one more crucial reason: Captain America is far more valuable alive than dead!

Why?

The blood on Captain America's body is priceless!

Although Hydra now has Winter Soldier as a super soldier, several other super soldiers are still frozen in Siberia.

But for Alexander Pierce, it was far from satisfactory.

Because these super soldiers are not perfect super soldiers, and they are far from reaching the level of Captain America.

This is why Hydra only awakens the Winter Soldier when carrying out missions, and keeps him frozen at other times.

Even those in Siberia have been frozen for decades and haven't been used.

Without him.

These super soldiers all have flaws!

However, due to technological limitations, Hydra had no better solution and could only let things take their course.

And now?

Isn't the opportunity to change this situation now present?

With the technology mastered by Hydra, plus the modern, all-encompassing level of science and technology.

With Captain America's serum sample, Pierce is still very confident that he can replicate Captain America's glory.

So in the time to come.

It's not just Nick Fury, and it's not just Tony Stark, that playboy.

Even Alexander Pierce has begun to pay close attention to the dormant Captain America.

All eyes began to focus on that frigid polar region.

Of course.

Coulson, that honest man, was completely unaware of all this.

After receiving orders from Nick Fury, he led his men directly into the vast, boundless, icy wilderness.

Every day, he leads his men, along with Hydra spies, to conduct a thorough search and investigation, following previous search and rescue records.

no way.

Seventy years ago, this place was a vast ocean!

Over time, the landscape underwent dramatic changes, eventually becoming land.

This means that all traces have been erased, and all the information held by S.H.I.E.L.D. has been overturned.

Everything has to start from scratch.

This workload is enormous.

But the honest Coulson is still very loyal and reliable. Despite being a top agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., he works hard every day in this polar environment to carry out exploration work.

There were no complaints.

Whoohoo!

The biting wind kept blowing, it was hard to tell if it was level five or six.

In short, the already heavy snowfall was blown even more wildly, creating a dazzling spectacle.

Even the agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. could clearly feel the snowflakes hitting their faces.

Look around.

The whole world was covered in these white snowflakes, and visibility was shockingly low.

This undoubtedly added many inconveniences to the work of Coulson's search and rescue team.

Fortunately, S.H.I.E.L.D. agents are all highly trained and possess exceptional skills in all aspects.

No one complained; they overcame difficulties and continued to carry out the mission.

There's not much to say about that.

The only problem is that, because of this extreme weather, none of the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, including Coulson, knew that they had been discovered.

By whom?

Tony Stark, the arrogant, cool, super-rich, and super-genius second-generation heir.

At this moment.

Above Coulson and the other S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, amidst the boundless snowflakes, a lump of iron was suspended in the air.

Jarvis had marked and magnified the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents on the ground, projecting them directly into Tony Stark's view.

"How can there be so many people?"

"Shouldn't this godforsaken place be completely deserted?"

"This isn't the base of any of those research stations!"

Tony Stark, inside his armor, felt something was off.

Like Nick Fury, after learning the bombshell that Captain America was still alive from the diary, Playboy also took action.

That's Captain America no matter what!

Although the arrogant Tony Stark had no feelings for Captain America, unlike so many others who idolized him.

But now that he knew Captain America was still alive, Tony Stark couldn't remain indifferent.

So after making the necessary preparations, Tony Stark flew to the Arctic Ocean in his Iron Man suit.

They flew to the officially announced crash site of Captain America's plane and conducted a search.

However, Tony Stark did not expect that instead of finding Captain America, he would find other people first.

This puzzled Tony Stark.

Why would these people happen to be near the site of Captain America's plane crash?

They're even using equipment to probe something!

Could it be that they are searching for Captain America just like me?

However, the idea was quickly dismissed by Tony Stark.

Probably not. I only found out that Captain America wasn't dead through his diary. How could anyone else know?

According to the diary, Captain America was discovered in the future by a Russian oil rig.

Now is not the time!

"Sir, what's that in the sky!"

"Look, what's that!"

Because the blizzard was so intense, Jarvis only discovered Coulson and his group after getting very close.

So it was quickly discovered by the extremely vigilant S.H.I.E.L.D. agents.

With a cry of surprise from a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent, all the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents spotted the flying metal object.

However, it was precisely because of this that Jarvis was finally able to scan the faces of all the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents.

Tony Stark didn't know the other S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, but Coulson had met Tony Stark before and even "cooperated" with him.

That's why the Playboy was recognized at a glance.

"Coulson?"

"S.H.I.E.L.D."

Tony Stark was immediately able to recognize the identities of the people on the ground.

At the same time, I became even more curious.

Why would such an international intelligence organization be in a place like this?

"Iron armor, it's Iron Man!"

"No, it's the Destroyer!"

"Stark? What's he doing here!"

At this moment, the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents finally saw clearly what those things floating in the heavy snow were.

I was equally surprised.

"Stark? What's he doing here?"

Coulson, ever the astute one, sensed something amiss; Stark's appearance was certainly unusual.

During the period when Commander Fury ordered him to find Captain America, he appeared near the site of Captain America's plane crash!

Could it be that Stark also knows something?

"Stark, aren't you going to come down and say hello?"

As those thoughts flashed through his mind, Coulson tilted his head back and yelled at Tony Stark.

Whoosh!

Now that he'd been discovered, Tony Stark stopped acting suspiciously.

It fell directly from the sky, landing right in front of Coulson.

"Stark, I must say, I never expected to run into you in a place like this."

Coulson glanced up and down at the cool metal behemoth in front of him and exclaimed in genuine admiration.

Clang!

Tony Stark's mask came off, revealing the playboy's face to Coulson.

"Really? I was just about to say the same thing."

Tony Stark shrugged slightly. "Of course, what I'm saying isn't to tell you that we're on the same wavelength. In fact, it's a terrible and disgusting thing for two grown men to be on the same wavelength."

"The reason I want to say the same thing is because it's a bit strange that you're here."

"So what are you doing here? Are you on some secret mission?"

The playboy, too lazy to beat around the bush, directly asked the other person the question that was on his mind.

"No comment."

Coulson revealed absolutely nothing, then stared intently at Tony Stark and pressed, "But I need you to tell me why you're here."

"That's really unfair! You won't tell me why you're here, but you're telling me what I'm doing here?"

"That's right."

Faced with the playboy's relentless accusations, honest Coulson simply nodded and admitted it, even offering a plausible reason: "You trespassed into our territory, so you'd better confess."

"is that so?"

It would be a miracle if Tony Stark was afraid of Coulson's threat; he didn't even blink. "Alright, I'm just passing by."

"Just passing by?"

"Yes, I was driving the Destroyer around when I unexpectedly ran into you guys here."

"A drive? In a place like this?"

"What kind of look is that? Okay, I don't know about the benefits at S.H.I.E.L.D., but how much do you think an agent like you makes? You can't even imagine the life someone like me leads."

"Stark, I need a formal and further explanation from you."

"Excuse me, I'm in a hurry."

Whoosh!

Knowing that continuing the argument would be pointless, Tony Stark stopped arguing and stopped wasting his breath.

After abruptly ending the awkward conversation, he flew away in his Iron Man suit.

All that was left was a helpless Coulson, bewildered in the wind.

He looked up at the direction where the Iron Man armor had disappeared for a few seconds before pulling out a satellite phone and dialing Nick Fury's number.

"Sir, we've encountered a problem."

Coulson solemnly reported his encounter with Tony Stark to Nick Fury.

Coulson and his crew actually ran into that playboy?

Lu Dan was quite surprised by this, but at the same time, he sensed something unusual.

Why is Tony Stark there?

And the timing was so perfect?

The diary just gave away the spoilers that the perfect team is still alive, and you appear right on time?

This inevitably reminds Nick Fury of the earlier theory about Black Widow.

It seems very likely that Tony Stark is also the owner of the diary!

Otherwise, there's really no way to explain their appearance in the Arctic Ocean.

"I see."

"Leave the Stark matter to me; you don't need to worry about it."

"You just continue with your business."

After a moment's thought, Nick Fury gave Coulson this order.

"Understood, sir!"

Coulson responded and continued to lead his men in a diligent search for people in the Arctic Ocean.

As for Tony Stark?

Although this top-secret operation was discovered, Coulson naturally stopped worrying about it since his superiors had already said not to worry about it.

They acted as if the Playboy had never existed, going about their business as usual and completely forgetting about him.
