Chapter 399: A Strange Base

"Tony, are you sure that Hydra's base is in this location?"

The gloomy sunlight pierced through the mottled and sparse foliage and fell on the snow, and Steve drove his motorcycle through the rugged woods, frowning at Tony in the sky as he faced the unobstructed passage of the road.

"Of course, Captain."

Flying over the woods in a brand new steel suit, Mark 48, Tony responds to Steve's question and immediately gives an affirmative answer.

"According to the latest clues, Hydra's secret base is hidden in this forest, and even not so long ago, a large number of trucks transporting supplies were seen in a certain area of the forest. Although the location of Hydra's base is secretive, it is obviously not completely isolated from the world......"

"If none of these clues convince you, Jarvis."

Controlling the dark red mark 48 around the towering giant tree in front of him, Tony raised an eyebrow and handed over the rest to the artificial intelligence.

Through the analysis of the forest where the Avengers are located, Veronica, the exclusive satellite launched by Stark Industries into outer space, Jarvis took over Tony's work and replied to Captain America: "Judging from the analysis of the satellite map, it has been determined that the location of the Hydra base is quite close, according to the satellite footage taken three days ago, there was a strange energy shield on the central building of the base to protect and conceal the entire base building, However, due to some unknowable situation, this layer of shield temporarily lost its effect, and was scanned by Veronica's surveillance system to take pictures ......"

"It must be Loki's scepter......"

Sitting in the rickety SUV, Thor heard Jarvis's answer and immediately made a supplement.

He came to the atrium from Asgard this time, in addition to fighting side by side with the members of the Avengers again, he also had the idea of taking back the scepter that Loki left in the atrium, and S.H.I.E.L.D. had promised him that he would keep the scepter properly for a period of time to study, who would have thought that during the time he left, the entire S.H.I.E.L.D. would be gone.

"The scepter has a powerful magical power, and Hydra definitely used this power of the scepter to be able to cover the Avengers' tracking."

"I think the captain meant to say ......"

Driving an off-road vehicle through the rugged terrain of the forest, Natasha obviously noticed something strange: "Since this is the location of the secret base of Hydra, why can't we see any defense in the entire forest, allowing us to run rampant through the forest." ”

"Perhaps, it's a trap?"

Faced with Natasha's suspicions, Banner, who was sitting on the side, lifted the glasses on his face and guessed.

"Whether it's a trap or not, I can't give up this operation."

Faced with the suspicion of the Avengers, Johnny Thunderbolt, who was sitting on another off-road vehicle, immediately made a firm statement.

"Susan is in the hands of Hydra, I must get her back."

Click!

Jonny's words were interrupted by a screeching sound from the back of the SUV.

"I'm sorry."

Through the rearview mirror in the car, Hawkeye saw Stone Man raise his arm and apologize for a clear depression in the car.

"It's okay, I didn't think about bringing it over in its entirety from the moment I drove it out anyway."

Seeing this scene, Hawkeye in the driver's seat shrugged his shoulders and replied quite generously.

Of course, this also has a lot to do with the fact that the car was not his in the first place.

Boom –

"Be careful!"

However, in the next quarter of an hour when everyone in the off-road vehicle was distracted, a dark blue ability ray from the depths of the forest flew towards the location of Hawkeye and the others.

Seeing this flying laser, without the slightest hesitation, the stone man stood up with his huge body, stepped into a deep depression in the car, and pounced on the location where Hawkeye was.

"Roarβ€”"

Then, at the same time, an angry roar came from the car of Natasha and the Avengers in front of him, and Hulk tore off his clothes and jumped out of the car and rushed towards the location where the laser was fired.

"Well, it looks like Hydra's base is indeed here."

Riding the motorcycle in a rather difficult maneuver to avoid the lasers flying around him, Steve faced this dangerous situation, and his expression under the mask immediately changed, and he responded to Tony in mid-air.

Although the current situation is dangerous, it can only be regarded as a small scene for the Avengers.

Especially in contrast to those battles they had experienced before.

"Do you need my help, Captain?"

In mid-air, Tony asked as he noticed the battle in the forest and controlled the steel suit to avoid the flying lasers.

"Find the location of the base."

Driving the motorcycle onto the rocks, using the force of inertia to directly throw the whole car to a laser design position to produce a violent explosion, Steve pulled out the shield behind his back to unload the falling power, and calmly gave an order: "This is up to us." ”

"Well, who called you the captain?"

Hearing Steve's arrangement, Tony inside the steel suit raised an eyebrow, controlled Mark48 to generate a huge propulsion, and flew in the direction of the position provided by Jarvis.

Boom –

Raising his hands to produce a scorching flame that hit a simple fortress opposite, Johnny Thunderbolt looked up at the figure of Tony's steel suit, and without hesitation, he lit the flames on his body and said, "I'm going to save Susan!" ”

"Johnny, wait a minute!"

Noticing Johnny's impulsive expression, Mr. Fantastic Reed subconsciously stretched out his arm to stop it, but it was obviously a step too late, and by the time his palm stretched out, Johnny had already quickly flew into the air under the impetus of the flames on his body, making a huge sound of breaking the air, pulling out a long flame trajectory and flying in Tony's direction.

"Let him go."

Holding the off-road vehicle as a shield in front of him, Stone Man Ben looked at Johnny's flying figure and gave him a rare explanation.

"For a long time, because of Susan's relationship, he has been trying to restrain himself."

……

Bang –

"Damn it!"

The appearance of these attacks, although it has caused some trouble to the Avengers and the Fantastic Four, undoubtedly means that the base of Hydra is not far away.

Following the location provided by Jarvis, Tony found the location in the photograph and managed to find the correct location of the base in a less comfortable way.

"Guys, now I have bad news and good news for you?"

Controlling the Mark 48 on his body to stabilize the flight, Tony scanned the Hydra base shrouded in energy shield in front of him through the system inside the helmet, and contacted the Avengers in the forest on the other side through the built-in communication device: "The good news is that I found the base, and the bad news is that it doesn't seem to be as easy to get in as imagined." ”

"It's not easy to get into, which sounds like a bit challenging."

Raising his hand to summon Thor's hammer back into his hand, hearing Tony's news, Thor waved the hammer in his hand to produce a fierce wind, and said eagerly: "Maybe I can summon lightning to give it a try." ”

Wielding the hammer of Thor in his hand, before Thor could take off, Tony's response came from outside the Hydra base in the next second.

"Looks like we don't need your lightning anymore."

Controlling Mark48 to move to the side, Tony looked at Johnny who was standing on top of the energy shield of the Hydra base, and the shield that turned red under the flames, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said, "I already have reinforcements here." ”

"Ahh

As the endless flames in Johnny's body were already burning at high temperatures, the energy shield outside the Hydra base still became distorted.

"Sir, there is a weak point in the shroud energy in the lower left corner."

Immediately afterward, Jarvis noticed the change in the energy shield and immediately reminded Tony.

"Well done, Jarvis."

Hearing Jarvis's reminder, Tony immediately controlled the Mark 48 on his body to lower his position, and fired a dense number of miniature missiles from the shoulder armor to hit the weak point marked by Jarvis.

Burst!

Johnny's flames combined with Tony's missiles instantly broke through the energy shield that shrouded the Hydra base.

"You can go in, guys."

Looking at the broken shield in front of him, Tony told the people in the forest about the situation through the contact device.

On the other side, Johnny Thunderbolt had already rushed into the base first.

"Understood."

Pressing the button on the glove to reattach the flying shield, Steve heard Tony's report and turned his head to look at the battle in the forest, and the expression on his face showed obvious hesitation instead of relaxation.

Although the attack from Hydra in the forest has caused them a lot of trouble, there is still a gap compared to the previous battle of the Avengers. Even the Hydra soldiers fighting in the forest were much smaller than he expected.

"Natasha ......"

"I know Captain."

Raising his gun to deal with the Hydra soldiers in front of him, hearing Steve's words, Natasha immediately continued: "The Hydra soldiers in the forest are obviously a little abnormal, I have found injuries in many of them, it seems that they have suffered something before." ”

Glancing down at the Hydra soldiers who had fallen at their feet, they not only had the marks of Natasha's guns, but also several obvious bandages on their bodies. Obviously, these soldiers were wounded and went into battle with the Avengers.

What kind of situation is it that makes these soldiers have to fight even though they are injured?

"It's not just these Hydra soldiers, Captain ......"

Controlling Mark48 to fall within the base of Hydra, Tony looked at the scene of the base in front of him, and immediately took Natasha's words and said.

"It looks like the entire Hydra base is going through something as well."

In front of him, a large number of broken buildings, and some roads that were clearly still being repaired, told Tony that the Hydra in front of him seemed to have encountered a battle that they didn't know existed, and that the battle was not too long over.

"Jarvis, scan these traces."

"Yes, sir."

After receiving Tony's order, Jarvis inside the steel suit immediately scanned the entire Hydra base through infrared rays.

"Judging from the traces of damage at the site, this building has suffered considerable damage in the past, and the power level is equivalent to the damage of an intercontinental missile."

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Jarvis's report made Tony in the steel suit frown subconsciously, the development of the situation in front of him was very different from what he had imagined before.

Although there are many doubts in his mind about what happened in the Hydra base, Tony has obviously not forgotten the purpose of the Avengers' operation. In addition to rescuing Susan, a member of the Fantastic Four who was captured by Hydra, he also had to get back the scepter they had taken from S.H.I.E.L.D.

Raising his palm, Tony looked at the base in front of him and was about to break a hole, but with a glance, he quickly found a suitable entrance nearby.

"It seems like I'm not the only one planning to do this."

Shrugging his shoulders, following the hole outside the base that he didn't know who had made, Tony managed to enter the base.

Entering the Hydra base, Tony could see the destruction in the base more clearly, a large number of broken buildings and dark red blood marks on the ground, and the emptiness of the entire base made it hard for him to believe that he had entered a secret base of Hydra.

"Hey, anyone?"

Walking through a gravel-strewn passage, Tony looked at the base, where there was still no figure there, and his expression beneath the steel suit began to become confused.

"An enemy has crashed into the base."

A shout was opened in the direction of the other side of the passage, but there was no noise or reaction in the entire base other than Tony's echo.

"Jarvis, scan the base now, I want to know what's wrong here."

"I found a large number of corpses, sir, in that room not far from you, and some survivors, in the center of the base, they are carrying weapons, please be careful, sir."

"A large number of corpses."

The results of the scan that Jarvis had told made Mark 48 Netoni's forehead furrow a little deeper.

But knowing that there are still survivors in the base, Tony in the steel suit can't help but breathe a sigh of relief, the appearance of survivors means that this base has not been abandoned, and it also means that he can understand what happened to this Hydra base through the mouths of these survivors.
