Chapter 296: The World War Begins

In the 70 years since the Second World War, many people have forgotten the cruelty of war.

After all, human beings always yearn for a peaceful and stable life and are willing to live a stable life, but it is a pity that the advent of war is often not decided by ordinary people.

The chaos in this world seems to have started eight months ago.

At that time, in a corner of the New York Times, this message was printed: "The Sokovia government has released information that it has recently been attacked by mutants. ”

At the time, the news was just the size of an eraser in the entire newspaper. If the editor-in-chief of the newspaper at that time could have put this news in an important position, instead of letting a certain celebrity derail occupy most of the page, perhaps the world could have made more preparations for the arrival of war in advance.

However, Sokovia is a small and inconspicuous country, and it is not one of those black countries in Africa, and if it were not for the edge of mutants, there would not even be a rubber-sized page.

Who would have thought that this humble country would alarm the world in just one month.

Sokovia, originally a small country in the European region, has a population of less than one million and no special production, so not many people in the world know about it.

But in reality, this small country is a large stronghold controlled by Hydra.

Baron Straker is the leader of Sokovia, one of the leaders of the Hydra Order, and the siblings' greatest enemies, Wanda and Pietro.

After confirming this from Ulysses Crowe, Wanda travels alone to Sokovia to avenge her parents.

However, Wanda's superpowers, driven by hatred, are several times more powerful than before, and she easily returns to her old land, and even sneaks into Straker's castle without knowing it.

As it was supposed to be all right, Wanda hypnotized the two Hydra guards and told them to take her to Straker. Once the culprit is found, Wanda believes she will be able to kill him without alarming anyone.

Once the revenge is successful, Wanda will leave the place immediately, guaranteeing that no one will find out.

However, before she could find Straker, Wanda first saw a group of children who looked to be only about ten years old, being held down by the Hydra men and sent into a certain room.

For a moment, Wanda seemed to have a phantasm in front of her eyes, and these children clearly had faces similar to her and Pietro.

Once upon a time, Wanda was brought to this castle by the Hydra people, and then subjected to all kinds of painful experiments. At that time, she thought that she was preparing for the revenge of her parents, but she didn't expect to be used as an experiment by the real enemy.

If he hadn't met Rorschach, he might still be in the dark.

If left alone, these children will end up like themselves. Hydra is a behemoth, and even if Straker is killed, someone else will come and take over the castle and continue the evil experiments within.

Although Wanda's heart has been filled with hatred, watching these children walk by in front of her eyes, Wanda feels that she can't just watch the tragedy happen.

Therefore, Wanda let go of her mental power and controlled the Hydra soldiers who were escorting these children.

"Send them out of the castle and find a safe place to settle them." Wanda said to these Hydra soldiers.

Under the effect of superpowers, these Hydra soldiers simply have no ability to resist.

But Wanda also had to put aside her revenge plan for the time being, because she could only guarantee a 100% stable hypnotic effect from a certain distance.

Unable to consistently apply mental cues, these Hydra soldiers may become resistant and fall out of hypnosis. This possibility depends on the strength of the willpower, some people will be affected for several days, but others may only be ten minutes.

If these children are really safe, Wanda can only follow them all the way.

"Straker, just let you live a little longer." Wanda said unwillingly.

The children, while feeling a little strange about the sudden change of destination, are all just experiencing the pain of losing a loved one, and their attention is not at all focused on such small issues.

Wanda asked a group of Hydra soldiers to leave with the children, and was halfway to the castle gates when the sirens suddenly broke out.

"Attention various departments, there are mutants invading the castle! Attention departments, there are mutants invading the castle......"

The sirens kept repeating, and Wanda was startled.

"Did you find out?"

As soon as I felt this feeling in my heart, I heard the sound of footsteps that had been dense coming from not far away.

Wanda was right, although she can hypnotize people's spirits, she can't hypnotize machines. Although she was very careful, she was still caught by surveillance cameras, and then she was soon discovered by the Hydra people.

Wanda was well aware of the castle's structure, and where she now sits is in an attic on the east side of the castle, with only one road in front and back. And now, people are coming on both sides, and it is a desperate situation where there is no way out and there are pursuers.

Without the slightest hesitation, Wanda spread her crimson ability and twisted the necks of the Hydra soldiers beside her.

Wanda's hypnotic abilities need to be delayed for a period of time to take effect, rather than being like Professor X who instantly freezes others.

Therefore, once the hand-to-hand battle is made later, Wanda may not have enough time to control those Hydra people. And when the battle begins, these hypnotized people are also likely to be stimulated to wake up instantly.

Therefore, Wanda simply killed the person first to prevent future troubles.

The death of the Hydra soldier caused these children to panic for a while, but under the comfort of Wanda's mental power, they remained calm for the time being.

Wanda was engrossed in sensing the situation ahead, and at the turn of the stairs a hundred meters away, a pair of Hydra soldiers with weapons came running quickly, numbering hundreds.

Wanda closed her eyes and spread the crimson energy, and before she could see the Hydra soldiers, her superpowers had already fallen on them.

The trigger automatically pulls down, and bullets erupt from the muzzle, creating a large mess in no time. There weren't many people who were injured by accident, but the panic began to spread.

Before the enemy was seen, this kind of cannibalism occurred, and even though most of the members of Hydra were fanatics, they couldn't help but panic.

Wanda sensed the Hydra soldiers in front of her hesitating, breathed a sigh of relief, and then turned her attention behind her.

But this time, Wanda was a little slower.

Before his spiritual power could spread, a chasing soldier appeared behind him. They didn't care if these were children or not, and they didn't hesitate to shoot Wanda and the children.
