Chapter 14: Do not be afraid

While the Strategic Science Corps was on its way to London and Rogers was dragged by the senator to become a sales ambassador for national bonds, Luke remained in Brooklyn, New York.

As Carter said, he had other tasks.

After that infirmary conversation, Colonel Phillips told Luke about an amazing plan with a rather high level of secrecy!

Even with a super soldier leading the team, the difficulty factor is very high!

Colonel Phillips handed over the Roaring Commando to Luke for more than simply his abilities.

As the only super soldier in the world, no one is better suited to carry out that plan than Luke!

In other words, the colonel needs him!

That's why the idea of cultivation is revealed!

Luke himself was not surprised by this.

That's one of the reasons why he didn't hide his performances at the Caspian training camp.

Interpersonal communication in society is essentially the exchange of interests between individuals.

In a sense, being able to be used by others is also a reflection of value.

In the last life's Internet joke, there is a sentence called "Since I became a waste, no one can use me", which caused laughter at the same time, but it actually made a lot of sense when you think about it.

With the failure of the Super Soldier program, the status of the Strategic Science Corps slipped noticeably.

Funding was cut, personnel were transferred, from the rear to the front......

This series of actions shows that Colonel Phillips has no way to make the Strategic Science Corps show the necessity of its existence.

Then, it is likely to face the fate of being laid off.

This is not alarmism.

In wartime, value and efficiency must be given priority in the allocation of all resources.

"So in order to save the position of the Strategic Science Corps, the Colonel will let me lead the Roaring Commando? I thought that my personality charm was strong enough to tackle any plot character on my own. ”

Luke lay on the hotel bed, looking at the crisp military uniform hanging from the hanger.

"Captain Cavill."

He muttered, a smile on his face.

This was one of the benefits given by Colonel Phillips, and also to facilitate the leadership of the Roaring Commando.

Otherwise, who would be willing to accept a recruit and become their immediate boss.

From a newly enlisted private to a lieutenant, it took Luke less than a month to go from being a private.

It can be said that the speed is amazing!

"If I really do what Colonel Phillips has to do, let alone a captain, it is not impossible to become the fastest-promoted colonel officer ever. When the time comes, if you have the heart to develop, maybe you can learn from Eisenhower and live in that White House. ”

Luke's mind is constantly diverging, outlining a beautiful blueprint for the future.

After a moment, he couldn't help but laugh out loud and laughed at himself, "It seems to be thinking a little far." ”

This young man, who has been promoted to captain and is about to lead the Roaring Commando, shakes off superfluous distractions and returns to the question of his own ability.

"I'm Superman nowβ€”albeit in a low-profile version."

Luke swiped open the character panel and looked at the data presented on it.

He has the same power as Superman when he first appeared.

In terms of speed, it can run faster than a car driving at full power, punch through thick steel plates, and dynamic vision can catch the trajectory of bullets.

The muscle density far exceeds that of ordinary people, making it difficult for ordinary small-caliber bullets and cold weapons to cause fatal damage to Luke.

It can be said that it is invulnerable to steel - without taking into account heavy fire weapons.

"The superhuman template of LV1 civilians, the upper limit is probably to evolve the physical fitness to the extent that you can grab bullets with your bare hands and block shells with your body."

Luke thought that if he wanted to unlock "Flight" and "Thermal Sight", he would need the Superman template of the LV2 Warrior.

"It feels like when Superman first appeared, he wasn't that powerful, and it wasn't until later that his abilities became more and more perfect - so strong that he could burst the six-dimensional universe with one punch!"

Seeing the many superhuman templates waiting to be unlocked in the consciousness space, Luke suddenly felt that maybe one day he could evolve to that point.

"It's nice to have a world without Batman and Kryptonite......"

With this thought in mind, Luke closed his eyes and fell asleep.

……

……

Brooklyn, Joseph Sr.'s Tavern.

When Luke walked in, the people he had made an appointment to meet were already sitting in the corner.

Timothy Alohuis Kadwallad Dugan...... Oh, my God! That's a long name! I'll call you Dumbo-Dugan! ”

Luke beckoned for a dark beer and pulled out a chair to sit down.

He didn't say too much pleasantries, nor did he deliberately show enthusiasm.

Dugan is a typical GI figure, with tough facial features and two upturned mustaches.

After seeing that his commander was a guy who was a little too young, his expression was a little gloomy.

Because on a dangerous battlefield, the word young often means that you don't have enough experience and haven't experienced several wars.

At the same time, it also means that it would be very bad to give yourself back to such a person.

"Cavill...... Captain. You were promoted quite quickly, and I heard that a month ago you were a third-class private. ”

Dugan sneered, in his opinion, Luke must have climbed into some relationship, to gild the second generation.

Otherwise, how could a recruit who enlisted in the army ascend to the sky in one step and be directly promoted to lieutenant!

Moreover, Dugan has not heard of any amazing achievements and exploits of the other party.

Judging from the resume alone, it can be said that it is a blank.

"I'd prefer you to call me sir."

Luke smiled at the corners of his mouth, not the slightest hint of annoyance.

He turned his head to look at the other person sitting next to Dugan and whispered, "Dinu-Manuel." Colonel Phillips said you're a disguise genius, a master of martial arts, and I'm looking forward to seeing what you do. ”

"And you, Jimmy! Kenneth! Jelf ......"

Luke named each of these people one by one.

He had seen the information of the members of the Roaring Commando beforehand, and he had a preliminary understanding of this team.

"I am your commander and the commander of the Roaring Commando. At least until you receive new orders, you will be at my disposal and obey my instructions. ”

Luke leaned back in his chair and said in a rather casual tone.

He didn't have that much time to get on good terms with a bunch of high-eyed soldiers.

"Captain Cavill, we are soldiers, and we will follow orders."

It seems that Dugan is the leader of this team, and he is the first to stand up to Luke, "but we also only respect the capable, not the ......"

"You're trying to say that I look young and not qualified enough, and I'm obviously a rookie, and I want to put on a very dignified posture in front of you?"

Luke unceremoniously interrupted Dugan, the smile on his lips became gentle, "I heard that you are proficient in combat and firearms, and you once went behind enemy lines alone and took out a German operation team?" ”

"That's right. After that, everyone called me 'dummy bomb'. ”

Dugan said proudly, holding his head high.

Dum bullet is a kind of gun bullet made in the United Kingdom, commonly known as "flowering bullet" and "grenade shotgun", which is known for its amazing lethality.

Because of the unbearable pain caused to the human body after being shot, it is too cruel, and later international organizations have repeatedly applied to ban the use of such bullets.

Since Dugan has such a title, it can be seen that his ability is strong.

"To be honest, I wanted to play a fair game with you and prove that I wasn't what you thought I was. But then I think about it, I competed with you, which in itself is unfair. ”

Luke shrugged his shoulders, took a sip of the dark beer on the table, and smiled, "So, I'm going to be a little more direct next, so that you can know why I was able to become a captain from a recruit and lead the Roaring Commando." ”

"However, I hope you don't have to be afraid of what you will see later."

"Hahaha, Captain Cavill, we are all soldiers who have survived the battlefield and survived hell! We won't be afraid! ”

Dugan clutched his stomach and laughed exaggeratedly.

He only felt that Luke was bluffing, what terrible scene could scare him?
