Bang!

Inside the Hydra plane, Doctor Doom heard a violent explosion coming from the Babbitt building, and his eyes under the steel mask swept over the men and women on the other side, and he deliberately spoke.

"Hydra is really a terrifying existence, capable of making people willing to die."

“……”

In the face of Dr. Doom's worthwhile words, the men and women in the fighter plane looked at each other silently.

What kind of existence Hydra is, they naturally know. As subjects who voluntarily accepted the experiment and eventually survived and awakened their extraordinary abilities, they were able to persevere through countless painful experiments with only one goal: revenge. Take revenge on Tony Stark, the arms manufacturer who made the weapons that killed their parents.

As long as they can complete their revenge, no matter how evil the existence of Hydra is and how much it costs, they will not hesitate to do it.

Anyway, their originally happy and peaceful life was shattered as early as the moment their parents died.

The reason why he still insists on surviving today is only hatred for Tony Stark, no, or Iron Man as he should be called now.

Is that really the case?

Noticing the numb expressions on the faces of the men and women, a look of clarity flashed across the cold countenance beneath Dr. Doom's steel mask.

Ever since Straker woke him up from the Hydra base, Doctor Doom has been secretly observing Hydra, despite his apparent efforts to control his melted body. Whether it's the strange scepter of unpredictable power that Straker wields, or the only men and women left alive under his experiments, Doctor Doom is extremely interested.

It's just that because of the power he currently has, it's still difficult to shake the hydra.

That's why Dr. Doom had to temporarily suppress his inner ambition, show a cooperative attitude, and even offer to help Straker come to New York to snatch meteorites and create a space storm machine.

"Bear with it a little longer, just a little longer."

Lowering his head and scanning the device he had obtained from the spider tissue and containing the data of Reed's machine, a faint flash of excitement flashed in the eyes of Dr. Doom under his steel mask and was quickly suppressed by him.

Doctor Doom's collaboration with Hydra was only temporary, and he was never a self-sacrificing being.

Thus, Doctor Doom convinces New York Straker to snatch the machine and the meteorite not so much for Hydra as for himself.

Of course, for Dr. Doom's thoughts.

Judging from the previous conversations in the Hydra base, Straker was obviously aware of it, but, as mentioned before, Hydra did not trust Hydra either, as he had been wary of Hydra's thoughts and ambitions.

The reason why the two sides are able to cooperate is simply to use each other.

……

"Damn it!"

Top floor of the Babbitt Building.

As Doctor Doom and the others boarded the Hydra fighter plane and left, the remaining members of the spider organization did not hesitate to launch the bombs on their bodies, among which the most destructive power was the man who mastered the power of the Desperate Virus, and raised the temperature to the point where he could not control by activating the Desperate Virus in his body, and the explosion damage he generated directly blew the roof of the building where the Fantastic Four lived to smithereens, and at the same time melted the machine made by Reed into a pile of unrecognizable scrap iron wreckage.

Standing in the midst of the rubble that had been blasted, Johnny had a look of self-reproach on his face.

The explosion of the spider organization was extremely powerful, even if the stone man had already made a defense to block the destruction at the first moment of the explosion. However, the aftermath of the explosion still affected the Fantastic Four and others, making it impossible for them to save Susan, who was captured by Doctor Doom, in the first place.

Looking at the direction in which the Hydra fighter had disappeared, Johnny gritted his teeth and rekindled the extinguished flames on his body, turning into a flame and flying out despite the injuries on his body.

"Johnny!"

Seeing Johnny flying out regardless of the figure, Stone Man subconsciously shouted, but was immediately stopped by Reed, who was standing behind him, reaching out to stop him.

"Just let him go."

Standing atop the ruins, Reed looked at the flame mark left by Johnny in mid-air, his expression complicated.

From an emotional point of view, he naturally hoped that Johnny would be able to find the fighter plane where Dr. Doom and the others were sitting and rescue Susan, who had been captured. But, reason told Reed that the possibility of this happening could almost be described as minimal.

Sure enough, ten minutes later, Johnny, who flew out, came back again.

He staggered atop the ruins, the flames on his body extinguished as if they had lost their strength, and shook his head at Reed and Ben, his otherwise unruly face full of disappointment.

"I've searched around the building several times, but I still can't find a shadow of the fighter."

In fact, this is also a matter of course, after all, since Straker dares to arrange for a fighter plane to appear in New York, there is naturally a way to make it disappear. Johnny's quest, as Reed thought, had no effect.

“……”

On the Babbitt building, the Fantastic Four looked at the base in ruins and were silent for a long time.

"So, what should we do next, Reed?"

The stone man had just spoken, and asked Reed on the side.

"What to do, of course, to get Susan back immediately!"

Hearing Ben's inquiry, a pensive Reed didn't answer, Johnny shouted in a rude interrupt.

In the past, Johnny's impolite way would undoubtedly cause Ben to be strongly dissatisfied. However, under the current situation, Ben didn't have the heart to argue with him: "Of course I know that saving Susan is the key, but what about doing this?" We don't even know where the Doctor Doom and their plane flew? ”

"No, maybe we can know."

In the face of Stone Manben's words, Reed, who had bowed his head and pondered for a long time, finally spoke, recalling the clues revealed in his words from Doctor Doom, as well as the strange patterns formed by the skeleton and octopus tentacles on the fighter plane when they left, and said hesitantly: "If the message of Doctor Doom is not wrong, then it is very likely that it is Hydra who attacked us and snatched the meteorite this time." ”

"Hydra?"

Hearing Reed's speculation, Ben and Johnny subconsciously furrowed their eyebrows.

For Hydra, Fantastic Four may not be familiar, but they are not unfamiliar, after all, they still remember the information about Hydra and S.H.I.E.L.D. exposed by the Avengers on the Internet a few months ago.

"But even if we know that the group attacking us is from Hydra, where should we go to find them?"

Regarding Reed's speculation, Stone Renben's expression was not as optimistic as Johnny on the side.

Although the Fantastic Four became superheroes because of the previous space storm, they are not an organization like S.H.I.E.L.D. after all, and even the culprits behind everything cannot find each other's location. In particular, if his memory is not wrong, the Hydra of New York was destroyed with the actions of the Avengers a few months ago.

"We can't find Hydra, but I think someone should know about the organization."

"You mean?"

Although on the surface, he has become a huge stone man due to radiation mutation, but Ben is actually a very intelligent existence. Otherwise, when he participated in the space cosmic storm experiment before, he would not have been put on the space station by Ridra.

Therefore, the moment he heard Reed's answer, he reacted.

"The Avengers!"

"That's right, since it's ......"

After a lot of hardship, I finally found a glimmer of hope. The frown on Reed's face eased slightly, and Susan was captured, not only by Johnny, but also by him. It's just that compared to the impulsive Johnny, Reed knows that his emotions at this time can't change anything, so he chooses to focus more on thinking about how to save Susan.

Bang –

However, just as everyone struggled over how Susan would be caught.

With a deafening falling sound, the door of the Fantastic Four's house collapsed with a bang.

Immediately afterwards, Stan Lee, the doorman of the Babbitt Building, raised his finger and stood at the original doorway in a knocking motion.

……

Western Europe, outside the secret base of Hydra.

Standing in front of the base covered in white snow, Straker ignored the cold caused by the heavy snow, and looked at the transport truck with the Hydra mark in front of him, with a faint smile on his cold face.

"Welcome back, Dr. Doom."

"I've brought back everything you need."

Getting out of the car, Dr. Doom, who didn't have thick clothes to keep him warm, but his body had completely turned to metal, had obviously lost his sense of temperature. Walking on the ground with deep footprints, he looked at Straker in front of him, and then opened the carriage of the transport car and said indifferently.

"Good."

Looking away from the meteorite on the transport vehicle, Straker suppressed the emotions floating in his heart and looked at Doctor Doom on the side, with an obvious smile on his face: "Hydra will remember your friendship, Dr. Doom." ”

"I'm also very grateful for the efforts that Hydra made to wake me up."

In the face of Straker's kindness, Doctor Doom's eyes flickered under his steel mask, and then his cold tone changed to a soft and grateful expression.

Reaching out to take out the machine with a large amount of data, Doctor Doom continued, "Next, as long as the machine is built according to the designed data, Hydra will be able to create a large number of supernatural abilities. ”

Reaching out to take the device from Dr. Doom's hand, Straker smiled as well, "I hope everything goes as smoothly as you say, Doctor." ”

……

"Hydra?"

Stark Industries, New Energy Building, inside Tony's newly built new office.

When the Avengers heard the message from Natasha, the expressions on their faces were a little different.

"I thought they had died with S.H.I.E.L.D. in the previous exposure."

Raising an eyebrow, Falcon thought back to the previous battle and spoke.

"Along with S.H.I.E.L.D., it's only the part of the organization where Hydra lurks in New York."

As one of the former S.H.I.E.L.D. super agents, Natasha knows significantly more about Hydra than the rest of the Avengers. Even so, Natasha was shocked to hear Reed tell him that the Fantastic Four had been attacked by Hydra.

"So, we fought so hard before, and the result was only a part of the destruction of Hydra?"

The news that Natasha told was obviously a big blow to the Falcon.

After all, in order to be able to destroy Hydra, they paid a whole S.H.I.E.L.D. bureau.

"At least what we've eliminated is the most important part of Hydra in New York, and it's also the part of them that hides the deepest and most powerful."

"So, what's the situation?"

Although he was also shocked by Natasha's message, Steve quickly adjusted his mindset and focused back on the situation.

"The Fantastic Four have been attacked by Hydra, who has stolen the meteorite that Mr. Fantastic Reed has been working on, and even captured one of the members of the Fantastic Four."

"Meteorite?"

Hearing Natasha's description, Tony keenly noticed the key to it.

According to Mr. Fantastic's description, this is a meteorite from space, which has been irradiated by the space cosmic storm like the Fantastic Four, and has quite mysterious powers. Hydra obviously values this, so he will take the ...... to snatch it."

"In other words, Hydra's goal is for that meteorite?"

"Not only the meteorite, but also the Hydra that Dr. Reed made to form a space storm."

"Hydra wants to copy the powers of the Fantastic Four!"

The Avengers weren't sluggish, so the next second he heard Natasha's answer, Tony reacted.

"We must stop Hydra's plan."

At the same time, Steve also opened his mouth to express his attitude.

As Hydra's arch-enemy, he knew it would be a disaster if he let these guys master the powers of the Fantastic Four.

"Can you know where the hydra who snatched the meteorite went?"

Hearing Steve's words, Tony frowned and asked Natasha in front of him.

"It's not clear."

Met with Tony's inquiry and the Avengers' gaze, Natasha shook her head and gave a disappointing answer.

"Western Europe."

However, just as everyone was disappointed, a deep voice rang out in the office.

Immediately after, I saw a swarthy bald head with one eye appearing in front of the Avengers.
