Chapter 675
The Nine-Headed Serpent's Grand Assault
Chapter 675 Hydra's Grand Assault
When Deadpool appeared on the Savage Continent and started fighting the cavemen and Hydra, Zemo didn't think anything was wrong.
Although the Wildlands are located underground, with Norn Stones blocking teleportation magic and technology shielding signals, they are not truly isolated from the world. Over the past few decades, many Antarctic explorers have come to the Wildlands, only to be killed by Hydra.
Therefore, it is logically acceptable for Deadpool, a character who would not be surprising to appear anywhere, to appear on the Savage Continent.
The more important point is that Deadpool is a mercenary, not a superhero. Therefore, his appearance in Antarctica or even the wild continent is likely because he was hired by someone else, or even because Nick Fury heard some news and sent him over—Zemo didn't even know that Deadpool had been released from prison; he thought Deadpool was still in the mansion prison.
But when someone spotted Kitty Phantom running around inside the Antarctic base, Zemo knew something was terribly wrong: an X-Men member had somehow appeared in the isolated, unknown Antarctic base.
I can understand the Avengers, but the X-Men?
In an instant, Zemo felt he understood everything. His blood surged, and he couldn't help but roar, "Quick! Contact all Hydra branches and teleport all officers and combatants here! Someone has infiltrated and obtained all our coordinates except for headquarters!"
Upon hearing this, Dr. Faust became extremely tense: "Shouldn't we immediately organize manpower, evacuate everyone, and relocate to headquarters first?"
"You know nothing! They've discovered our location, and they must know I, Zemo, am here. Captain America won't let such a good opportunity slip by! I'm going to completely eliminate Captain America right here! Now! Immediately! Mobilize all forces! I want Captain America to die here!"
Dr. Faust stared at Zemo with a tense expression. As a young man born after World War II, he couldn't understand Zemo's behavior of staring at Captain America like that. Captain America was a threat, but weren't there far more threats to deal with than Captain America? Why were you staring at Captain America?
Zemo, you've been ruined by Captain America in this lifetime.
Considering that the other party was a leader, Dr. Faust had no choice but to nod and immediately contact other people, while also notifying Hydra branches around the world to begin transferring assets—they would hold off the Avengers at the Antarctic base to buy them time, and delay them as long as possible.
However, Dr. Faust hadn't expected them to arrive so quickly. Soon, amidst a dazzling display of fireworks erupting from Hydra Mountain itself, Iron Man hacked into all their power armor and began a massive sweep of Hydra. Then, Hulk soared into the sky, crashing to the ground and beating up the others.
Zemo shouted excitedly.
"Great! It's fried perfectly! Even better than 9/11!"
Do you even want to hear what you're saying?!
Dr. Faust realized that Zemo was right about one thing: all of Hydra's forces had to be mobilized to this hellhole immediately. If Captain America wasn't killed, their leader was a lunatic who would go crazy. At the very least, they needed to call in someone who could calm Zemo down.
Soon, a blue vortex appeared on the horizon. A massive Hydra robot, accompanied by a large number of Hydra power armor users and a chaotic army, surged forth, heading in a horde towards Hydra Mountain. Zemo excitedly drew his sword, ready to follow, but the appearance of a man interrupted him: a man with a full head of white hair but an unusually youthful physique, wearing green Hydra-made armor, simply walked up to Zemo. "Holwright...you've come?"
"Of course, I'm worried you might get carried away and go after Captain America. Don't forget our plan, Zemo. What if your superhero friends discover that one of them has disappeared during this crucial time of fighting Hydra?"
Zemo looked at the man in front of him, Daniel Holwright. Now, besides him, Zola, and Strucker, he was the only old man left in Hydra who had survived from World War II to the present. Even earlier, before Hydra was reorganized, Holwright and his father, the old Zemo who was killed by Captain America, were the veterans of Hydra.
Although he had no interest in the position of Hydra leader, this man codenamed Kraken was the head instructor of Hydra's 800,000 elite troops. He was the one who went to Japan and recruited the Hand into Hydra. Viper and Viper were also his students.
Most importantly, he was loyal and very capable.
"Alright, I'll leave this to you. Do you think we can win?"
“I’ve brought in about half of the people: the Viper Gang’s modified soldiers, the Hive’s artificial Inhumans, and Zola’s toys. I didn’t bring the Hand or Roxon Corporation because it wasn’t necessary, and they have their own plans, just like you.”
These people can't beat the Avengers, and even if they could, they couldn't beat the reinforcements. Zemo was absolutely certain of this. Kraken just looked at him and patted him on the chest: "Go, Zemo. Infiltrate among them all. The moment the Insight Plan is activated, the world will be ours."
Zemo didn't waste any words and turned to leave. As he walked away, he heard Kraken's mocking voice again: "How funny would it be if Nick Fury really thought that Alexander Pierce's Zola Algorithm System was Project Insight?"
“Young Fury is a bit better than his dad, so I’m really looking forward to that moment. Have fun, Holwright.”
Watching Zemo leave with the Norn Stone in his hand, Kraken turned to look at the smoke-filled Hydra Mountain, then frowned in displeasure: the security chief of the Antarctic base was a distant relative of his, yet he could be so negligent; it was unacceptable. He, no, the entire Antarctic base, needed to pay the price.
Kraken breathed a sigh of relief. It would be best if he could eliminate the Avengers in this battle, but if he couldn't, he would at least make them suffer.
"You've deployed less than 15% of your forces! What are you doing?! Get the troops back up! No, don't launch an attack immediately. Gather your forces first, and don't move them within a 50-kilometer radius of the base! Where are the nuclear weapons? Bombard Hydra Mountain with nuclear weapons for half an hour first!"
"Let's finish the bombing before we go up and wipe out the Avengers!"
