Chapter 371: Avengers 1: Split (Part I)

"Bucky?? Why are you here?! Steve asked aloud with a frown, and suddenly, he reacted, and then rolled on the spot, dodging Bucky who rushed to attack him, Peter flew up again, and he said in mid-air, "He's controlled!" Captain, stay away from him! ”

"Sober up! Bucky Barnes, you're not a hydra! With a flick of his arm, Steve threw the shield out of his hand, and the round shield flew past Bucky's ears with a cracking sound, but it didn't hit, just flew past the ends of his hair.

Stark, who was flying southeast of the battlefield, saw this scene, he let out a mocking "snort", and then said to Steve, "Remember what you told me before, how did you deal with those Hydras?" How did you get to your friend and forget all those words? ”

Steve had a very complicated expression, but finally said, "Cooperate with me to subdue him, and we'll talk about the rest later." ”

Stark snorted coldly, and the two missiles flew directly after Bucky's figure, the warheads spiraled in the air, with thick smoke behind him, and Steve stretched out his hand again and shouted, "No! Wait a minute! Don't use missiles! He...... You're going to kill him! ”

"He's a criminal, and he's a hydra, look at his actions now, he's trying to kill you, and all of us! Steve, do you want me to do my best against him, do you want to see us killed by him? Stark asked coldly.

"No, of course I'm not ......" Steve's arm began to tremble a little, and he showed a pained expression, all too sudden for him.

Although he had previously learned from the computer at the Hydra base that Bucky had become an experiment for Hydra, the kind of experiment he had in mind was a victim who had been tortured, extremely weak, and sealed, not the strong, dagger-wielding Hydra killer in front of him, who could even jump up and hit him.

His sanity told him that Stark was right, and that everyone could be in danger if the water was released at this time.

Don't forget, there are now two other people on the field who are suspected to be members of Hydra, and once the three of them join forces, it will take a lot of effort for the Avengers to deal with them, and if they don't do their best, I'm afraid something will really happen.

Steve, who learned about this on the battlefield, didn't have much time to think, his Adam's apple trembled violently, and even his entire upper body trembled a little, and he seemed to be trying to persuade Bucky.

Seeing Steve's attitude, Stark burst into flames namelessly, and while he slammed at Bucky on the ground with a lethal weapon, the smoke of gunpowder and the flames of the explosion rose at the same time.

Stark gave up his tactics, just venting his anger, even if there is no mecha army, just with Stark's steel suit that has been updated many times, after the firepower is fully fired, it can still suppress everyone on the field to fight, even Strange has to use dodge spells to avoid Stark's indiscriminate bombardment, and he can't shake his edge head-on.

Steve waved his arm a few times in front of him, the smoke choked him and coughed, just as the smoke cleared in front of him, he saw a huge crater appear in front of him, Bucky was running away from the edge of the crater, but was still caught up by a missile, Steve shouted, "No!!" ”

"No? You're going to say 'no' to the death of Hydra you've fought with all your life?! Stark's voice became more and more cold, his emotions began to become unstable, and the human part of his voice began to weaken and become like an indifferent mechanical voice.

Peter stood by and shouted, "Stop arguing! We should unite, the current situation is not at all solved by quarrels! ”

But no one paid any attention to him, Matt and the mutants had been driven out of the center of the battlefield by Stark's bombing zone, and now only the stronger Stark, Steve, Strange, Grant, Peter and Bucky were left on the battlefield.

Bucky, who was blown away by the missile, fell to the ground hard, and the sharp pain seemed to bring him back to his senses for a moment, and he lay on the ground and coughed twice, blood spitting out of his mouth.

Steve saw his movements, the countless scenes on the battlefield kept floating in his mind, in the scorched black trenches full of gunsmoke, he and Bucky were both covered in wounds and blood, looking at each other's disgraced faces, stretched out his arm and punched him, glad that he had survived a vicious battle.

His chest began to rise and fall, his arms trembled uncontrollably, his senses began to become more sensitive, and the granularity of the details on the handle of the shield in his hand spread from his fingertips to his brain, and too much information took up his brain, making it impossible for him to get out of the nightmare.

The back of the golden-red mecha in mid-air glowed blindingly towards the sun, like a round of sun, and Steve felt for the first time that standing in the position of being judged was such a sad and unacceptable thing.

Stark in the suit also shook his head, he was trying to calm his emotions, but every time he saw Bucky, he felt a wave of anger rise from his heart, no matter what, he couldn't just let the enemy who killed his parents live in peace.

Just when both of them were a little stunned, Bucky had already recovered, and that moment of sobriety was not enough for him to get rid of the control of brainwashing, he decisively seized the opportunity, a hard sprint, and pounced straight towards Steve.

When the cold light of the dagger's blade flickered and the violent sound of breaking the air sounded, Steve's expected pain did not come, but a painful scream sounded in his ears: "Uh!! ”

Spider-Man's screams rang in Stark and Steve's ears like thunder, and both of them stared at Peter at the same time as they stared at Peter, who was hit by a dagger in Bucky's hand.

The huge dagger stabbed straight into his left shoulder, almost slicing off his left arm, and the red slime was struggling to fill his body, but Peter arched himself like a boiled shrimp and screamed, covering his shoulder with his right hand, and the bruises on his hands bulging.

Steve watched stunned as Peter stood in front of him, blocking the attack from Bucky for him, and Stark's roar came from mid-air: "Peter!!! ”

But he flew in mid-air, far from the ground, and Bucky, who missed the blow, turned his target directly to Peter, his blood-stained dagger was already close to Peter's neck, and Peter seemed to be unable to resist because of the pain.

At the moment when Bucky's dagger was raised high, a figure roared and rushed from the side, grabbed his waist, and knocked him to the ground, the star-striped shield "slammed" into Bucky's neck, Bucky let out a scream, and then fainted.

Steve gasped, the messy information was finally cleared out of his mind, he stood up very tired, and walked towards Peter, before he could get close to Peter, Stark who flew over stopped him, the muzzle of the black hole was pointed at Steve, Stark said coldly: "Stand back, stay away from him, you Hydra accomplice!" ”

"If you hadn't shielded this damn Hydra killer, how could Peter have been injured? You almost killed him! Stark said angrily.

"I'm not, I didn't think ......" When the heavy smell of blood reached Steve's nose, he couldn't speak anymore, he slowly half-knelt down, and slammed his shield into the rocks of the rocky beach.

He slammed his eyes shut, and the countless nightmares of the past began to churn in his mind again, and he felt that the air around him was getting thinner and thinner, as if it could no longer supply his lungs with work.

Peter's fallen figure coincides with his former fallen comrades, and the butcher's knife wielding man changes from the evil Hydra to his former friend Bucky, reality and fantasy are intertwined, and Steve can't tell the difference between them all.

"It's always like this......" the voice seemed to be squeezed out of his throat: "It's like this every time, I didn't save them, they died in front of me...... It's always been like this, and there's never an end......"

Stark saw that Steve's eyes were red, he took two deep breaths, finally calmed down, looked around, and saw the barren beach that had been blown up by himself, he manipulated the mecha to land slowly, and looked at Steve from a distance, the voice was like the wind on the barren beach that had not changed for several years.

“…… Captain America, you know what? The most ridiculous thing is that the generals who just want to make money in the war tell you that you can save the world, you can save anyone......"

"They don't believe it themselves, but you do."

Looking at the strong man in front of him who was half-kneeling on the ground, the shield in his hand was still bright and shiny, and it seemed that it had never been forgotten in the past 70 years.

But this old man, who has been sleeping for 70 years, seems to be forever trapped in that war era, forever bound to the greatest and most ridiculous lie prepared for him by a group of self-interested people.

Stark couldn't believe that at this moment, he actually had some empathy and pity, because he had also been kidnapped by the group of people who shouted the slogan of justice, but the only difference between him and Captain America was that he had room to resist, he had Pepper, he had Obadia, but Steve had nothing.

He only has one passion, and he plunges headlong into this dark whirlpool that he has never seen the real face, becoming the ashes on the edge of the rut after the wheels of history roll forward, like a madman who refuses to play, practicing the set of justice that is no longer recognized.

At this moment, Stark suddenly understood why Steve cared so much about his last comrade-in-arms, perhaps, he had to find something to prove that what he was pursuing was not nothing, and always hoped that he and that generation would have another witness, not a dream he had made up in his own mind.

He wanted someone else to tell him that they had succeeded, and that even if the beginning of this story was nothing more than a false lie, countless people had paid for it and should not be forgotten and swept into the pile of stories of history.

Stark flew to Peter's side and helped him treat his wounds, and when Peter's breathing stabilized, Stark did not fly again, but stepped on the rocks on the deserted beach and walked to the beach.

Noon had passed, the intense light was beginning to fade, and the lighthouse in the distance let out a heavy low chirp.

Stark thought that the people who came from that era all had the same characteristics, as if they didn't feel tired of repeating their stories and legends ten thousand times, and so did Howard.

Perhaps, they just don't want the people and events in the story to be forgotten, just as they don't want to be forgotten.

There was a noise behind him, Stark turned around, he saw Steve staggering to his feet, shaking his head constantly, as if he had not yet broken free from the hallucination, and in a hazy sight, he looked at Stark's brightly colored mecha, and his expression was still a little dazed.

"I'm sorry......" Steve said, shaking his head again and opening his eyes.

"You should go over to him and say to him." Stark turned to look at Peter, who was lying on the ground with his back to him, half of his suit soaked with blood.

"I'm saying that to you, too." Steve lowered his head and said, "As the leader of the team, I made the wrong tactical judgment and didn't subdue him in the first place, otherwise none of this would have happened......"

"If you know, it's good." Stark turned back to his hand, the muzzle of the cannon blackened from the overheat.

He slowly gathered his fingers, then clenched them into fists, and said to himself in his heart: "Those who criticize weapons are sad enough, and those who defend weapons are even more pathetic. ”
