Chapter 121: Countdown
The Scarlet Witch left the front line in confusion and went to the hidden cave he had requested, following Baron Straker's orders. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info This is a very secluded place, and it is difficult for her to find this place if she does not have accurate coordinates.
However, the entrance to the cave requested by Baron Straker was sealed off by layers of rock, as if to hide something that he did not want others to see. This level of lockdown was not a big deal for the Scarlet Witch, and she soon used her telekinesis to move away from the boulder in her way and into the gloomy cavern.
"His Royal Highness Baron Straker?"
The light in the cave was so dark that it was hard to see what was hidden inside. The Scarlet Witch had no choice but to pull out the mini tactical flashlight she had brought with her and slowly advance with her narrow vision. This scene as if something could pop out at any moment made the Scarlet Witch tense her nerves, vigilantly guarding against the enemy's sneak attack.
"Why would Baron Straker let me leave my line of defense to this place?"
The Scarlet Witch was full of doubts, and even she endured the grief of losing her brother and continued to hold the line, what could be more important than defending the Hydra Castle? But not long after she left, when a figure appeared in front of her, Scarlet Witch's brain suddenly went blank.
It was Quicksilver, dressed in a hydra coat, lying unconscious near the fork in the cave.
This is actually a very strange scene, why is Quicksilver, which was taken away by the enemy, placed here? Did Baron Straker deliberately ask her to come over to pick up Quicksilver? And why does Quicksilver have an extra Hydra soldier's coat on him? Why did he just happen to be at a fork in the road that was suitable for hiding?
Each of the many doubts is worth considering, and veterans with rich battlefield experience will never rush forward! Unfortunately, Scarlet Witch is just a young mutant girl who occasionally gains powerful superpowers. Not to mention that she has been on the battlefield for a long time, in fact, she doesn't even have a lot of experience in killing, at most she has undergone special training on how to use her mental ability.
What's more, what appeared here was her brother Quicksilver, who she thought had died on the battlefield and had a flesh-and-blood relative, who could only be said to be concerned about it, and made the same mistake as before again, and walked towards the fallen Quicksilver desperately.
When she discovers that Quicksilver is still breathing, Scarlet Witch is so excited that tears are about to fall, and she quickly checks on his body to see if there are any wounds on his body that have not stopped bleeding, and is eager to pull Quicksilver back from the ghost gate. And after discovering that Quicksilver's chest was oozing blood, she didn't think much about it and pulled open the Hydra coat that was in the way of Quicksilver.
At the moment when the coat was opened, there was a sound like a ring being torn open, and the items hidden in the coat were exposed to the Scarlet Witch's field of vision.
Inside was -- a whole bunch of flashbangs.
"Buzz!"
Suddenly, an intense white light illuminated the entire cave, and the powerful light made everything in front of the Scarlet Witch go blank. It's a pity that Scarlet Witch's powerful mental ability to compress and transfer even the shock wave of the explosion has no effect on the light.
Before the Scarlet Witch could scream, Chen Lu, who was wearing sunglasses, stabbed her body from behind, accurately slicing her heart and ending her life.
[Trigger of the virus, target: Scarlet Witch, the zombie virus has been successfully injected・・・・・・ has been infected, and the mutant humanoid superhero has mutated. Since the target is dead, the mutation rate increases. The Scarlet Witch will mutate into a mutated infected person who retains her original human sanity within 3 hours, so please be careful to tame it or remove her consciousness.
A simple trap of overcoats, flashbangs, special sunglasses, and a barely captured Quicksilver and the voice of Baron Straker was taken away from the Hydra soldiers, and the Scarlet Witch was easily solved.
If he really had to fight head-on, Chen Lu might not have much to do with the Scarlet Witch's difficult telepathic abilities, but as long as she took advantage of her weakness of lack of actual combat experience, this powerful mutant girl would not even be able to see the person who attacked her.
Soon she will be a member of Chen Lu's zombie heroes, giving a great surprise to those superheroes who thought they were only opponents of ordinary zombies in the Battle of New York. The strength of an alpha intermediate mutant is very terrifying.
So far, the artifact Loki's Scepter, the powerful mutant Scarlet Witch, and a bonus of Quicksilver have all fallen into the hands of Chen Lu. The original goals of this trip to Sokovia were all completed, and then there were those unexpected surprises, which made the S.H.I.E.L.D. troops who entered the Hydra Castle feel the pain of being targeted by Chen Lu.
In the Hydra Fort Operations Command Center, Captain America and his S.H.I.E.L.D. soldiers cautiously broke into the enemy lair where only the dead remained, and looked in amazement at the Hydra personnel who were shot and killed one by one by pistols on the ground, and the corpse of Baron Straker, who committed suicide by drinking bullets on the table.
"Nick, Baron Straker committed suicide." Captain America immediately reported the information on the scene to the command on the sky carrier, and looked at the corpses on the ground with some pity, so that they had no one to interrogate.
"Suicide." Nick's tone was flat, as if everything was expected. In his opinion, it is not surprising that Baron Straker, one of the leaders of the Hydra Order, has the courage to commit suicide, and Nick is worried about something else:
"Immediately look for any information about the zombie virus around, the technical team will crack the security system of their computers as soon as possible, we need all the information they research, everything! Do you understand? ”
Under Nick's command, the S.H.I.E.L.D. soldiers who had just entered the castle immediately became busy again, anxiously searching every corner of the castle, eager to turn it all over.
However, before finding the information he wanted, a technical team member found an emergency, and he hurriedly reported: "Captain, the program for the Hydra's automatic defense artillery position is still running, and they have designed a countdown to fire, and there are only 2 minutes left before the fire!" ”
"Countdown to fire?" Captain America understood that the artillery position he was talking about should be the long-range artillery that was induced by Chen Lu to hit friendly troops when they broke through the central defense line, but due to the depression angle, those guns could not be aimed at the Aegis local team located under the ancient castle, so what did these guns want to do?
Suddenly, an ominous premonition came to his mind, and Captain America anxiously asked, "Where is the gun aiming?" ”
"Downtown Sokovia." (To be continued.) )
