Getting stronger?

Rogers froze for a moment, then fell silent.

As a super soldier, he has a strong physique and amazing stamina.

On the battlefield, it is a high-end combat power that can raid the enemy's lair and perform the task of decapitation with one enemy and one hundred.

In the future, after a long period of exercise, it is not a problem to pull the helicopter with bare hands and resist the Infinity Gauntlet.

In the future, collect Thor's hammer and vibranium shield to form a golden legendary suit, and you can also wrestle with Thanos and fight five or five.

Such a powerful super soldier is completely the dominant player during World War II.

How else to get stronger?

It's just—

Reality is always cruel, but there are Superman in both friendly and enemy forces, making Rogers a complete backdrop for the foil.

He was supposed to be the strongest and bravest super soldier in the eyes of the people, and he didn't have to think about getting stronger at all.

On the Allied side there was Luke, and the Axis had Aryan Superman.

Captain America, who was destined to shine and become an idol of the United States, only completed the latter.

He is not taken seriously by the military, and he has no opportunity to show himself, like a performer on stage who acts as a backdrop for stars.

Dispensable, it doesn't matter.

As a super soldier, Rogers can't remember how many times, how many people asked themselves, why are you so different from Luke?

He can smash a tank, break into a Hydra stronghold, and not even be afraid of powerful energy weapons, while you can only throw a shield - the doubts never go away!

Gradually, this became a problem that Rogers could not get around.

Later, as long as he thinks that others put him and Luke together, the scrappy and energetic Captain America becomes very autistic.

"Am I too bad?"

Rogers kept asking himself inwardly.

He was originally a positive and persistent person who would never give up.

But the clear disparity in front of the public, as well as the public criticism that comes to his ears from time to time, still makes Rogers feel heavy pressure.

He often spends his night alone wondering if Dr. Erskine is more optimistic about Luke, as everyone says, and that he is just a side giveaway?

Or is it that Luke is actually injected with a strengthened version of the second-generation serum, and he is a first-generation product that is not as effective as the former?

That's why you can't become a more powerful super soldier like your friends!

All kinds of speculations and ideas tormented Captain America who was not mature enough and made it difficult for him to sleep.

Until, now!

Luke asked himself, do you want to be stronger?

"Yes!"

Rogers nodded heavily, and the intense emotions in his heart were condensed into a "yes".

Even when he was in Brooklyn and bullied, he didn't want to be stronger like he was now!

"Krypton can only become stronger, Rogers, you haven't understood this truth yet."

Luke thought that the cultivation cost of 'Worden's blood' was not low, and it could even be said that it was quite expensive.

Perhaps this is one of the reasons why Berlin has not succeeded in mass-producing Aryan Superman for a long time.

In addition to technical constraints, the success rate is low, and there is also a cost problem.

"Then you can be a candidate for the 'Allied Superman' program."

Luke gathered his thoughts, coughed, and said solemnly, "But I want to warn you, Rogers, this is not a serum injection that can survive by relying on a strong will and a firm mind. ”

"Receiving the human body modification of Worden's blood is a very dangerous process."

"It has a very low success rate, and you have to survive multiple mutations. Three mutations are 'tank class' and twenty-four mutations are 'battleship class'. ”

"And Ms. Stephanie also said that the transformation plan of 'Worden's blood' has the potential to cause great damage to the human body and shorten the life cycle - you have to think about it carefully!"

Luke solemnly reminds that Superman is not so easy to be.

He didn't know what direction he would take Captain America's fate in a row.

In any case, Rogers, who has not been frozen for 70 years, has been given a new life.

The next step is to be mentally prepared for the unknown.

"I've already figured it out!"

Rogers had a fearless and resolute look on his face, which he always would be anyway.

Once you have set a goal, you will never look back and rush forward.

"Alright then, let's move on to the next question."

Luke nodded, not saying anything more.

……

……

This secret meeting of the Strategic Science Corps lasted two hours.

It should have been over fifty minutes ago, but Colonel Phillips said he wanted to say a few words briefly.

Then, the topic continues to expand and the content increases.

It wasn't until Luke gently reminded him that it was not too early that the colonel stopped talking, and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

"Steve, you stay."

As everyone walked out of the office room, Luke called out to an excited-looking Rogers.

"I want to have a good talk with you. Well, let's start with the blonde girl at the ball, she's called ...... Margaery: Right? How are you two doing, and are you still in touch lately? ”

Luke asked in a relaxed tone as he leaned back in his chair.

"Yes. Originally, everyone thought that the war was coming to an end, and she was a Scottish girl, so she returned to Edinburgh early...... We sometimes write letters to each other. ”

Rogers pulled away from his chair and sat down, scratching his head, and said with some embarrassment, "But you know, Luke. I'm not very good at chatting and can't write any funny jokes, so I'm distressed. ”

Captain America, who fell in love for the first time, is no different from ordinary people.

No, to be more precise, he may be a little worse than a lot of people.

After all, Luke really couldn't imagine the appearance of Rogers, who had always been serious, saying sensual words with affection on his face.

"You don't have to show your humor, you're not Howard, it's okay to talk about some small things that happen in life, just let that lucky girl feel your concern."

Luke smiled, then said seriously, "Steve, we're friends. ”

"So, I don't want my existence to cause you ...... Pressure. I know that there are speculations and rumors circulating in the army about super soldiers, about me and you. They said something nasty. ”

"But I've told you a long time ago that Dr. Erskine is more optimistic about you, than you are just a giveaway, as others say."

"Steve, there are qualities in you that I don't have and don't have."

"Frankly, I'm not really a good person. In everything I do, I have my own considerations, whether it is a factor of interest or personal interest—I never show senseless pity for the enemy, nor do I show any sympathy for the weak. ”

"So, I lacked what it took to be a hero, and I wasn't interested in doing it. I'm actually a little bit more like Howard, in that we both love to lead people, to stand on a higher level, to be the decision-maker who calls the shots. ”

Luke stared deeply at Rogers, who did not hide his true nature, just as he did not hide his abilities in the Caspian training camp.

If we say, the future of this world is destined to be an era of superheroes.

Then he is more inclined to be a protector, a controller, a container.

Instead of wearing that armor and cape, and busy every day to return the kitten from the tree to its owner, save the wrecked plane, the shipwreck......

In short, Luke didn't plan to make superheroes a career.

He also didn't want to see Captain America, because he wanted to catch up with himself, so he took the risk of participating in the "Allied Superman" program.

After hearing all this, Rogers retracted his smile and became silent.

After a while, he said in a hoarse voice, "I must admit that you have put a lot of pressure on me, Luke. ”

"Even though we're friends, I still envy you sometimes. What I desire is not the honors you get, nor the adoring eyes of others, but the ability that you can always rush to when others need it. ”

"When I was in Brooklyn, Bucky was often surrounded by thugs, and I couldn't help him, and I had to be a drag. It's different after getting to know you, you always have a way to deal with all kinds of troubles, street gangsters, moonshiners, gangsters, and over time, Bucky and I are used to looking for you whenever we have a problem. ”

"I did have the idea of chasing you, Luke. But then this thought quickly disappeared, because no matter how good or powerful you are, you are still my friend, and who would be jealous of your friend's achievements. ”

A smile appeared on the corner of Rogers' mouth, looked at Luke with a calm face, and said sincerely, "I want to be stronger, I just want to have the strength to help." At least I can step up when you need me, and I don't have to leave you alone. ”

There was a brief silence in the office, and after a few moments, a hearty laugh was heard.
