Riding the elevator, the red skull stared at itself reflected on the wall with a blank expression.

The underground of the original White House has long been transformed into a large underground base by Hydra at this time, with a total of 20 floors.

The upper three floors are used for security, and here are stationed the elite personnel of Hydra, all kinds of high-tech weapons of Hydra can be seen everywhere, and there are heavily armed Hydra soldiers patrolling at all times, and at the same time, they are also responsible for network surveillance, keeping an eye on the movements of the world.

Further down is the floor dedicated to scientific research, where not only are there all kinds of genetic research, but also some laboratories about extraterrestrial technology, where the scholars who were captured by Hydra are under house arrest to study all kinds of powerful weapons and human modifications.

Genetic enhancement and human modification, perhaps because of Red Skull's old nemesis, Captain America, is still obsessed with the power of those heroes so long after that battle.

To do this, he collected the legacies of the vast majority of superheroes and gathered scientists from almost the world to try to get them to find the key to inheriting the power of these superheroes.

And in order to ensure that these guys under his command have no dissenting intentions, Red Skull not only placed henchmen as the person in charge on each floor, but also kidnapped most of the scholars' family members.

In the past, when Red Skull felt the emptiness in his heart, he would come here to take a stroll, not only to urge the scholars to crack the superhero legacy as soon as possible, but also to relive the good old days.

Every time he saw the equipment of the Avengers, X-Men, and Fantastic Four, Red Skull seemed to see those sworn enemies standing in front of him, and they were talking nonsense about themselves, but in the end, the picture slowly changed to their tragic situation before death

This kind of experience is completely incomprehensible to ordinary people, and perhaps only an existence of this level like the Red Skull can feel the satisfaction that makes the whole body comfortable.

But.

Today's Red Skull is not here to relive the past.

Behind his hands, his fingers rubbing against the bat belt, this small action also showed that his heart was not calm at this time, and he had not experienced such excitement for decades.

Ding Dong –

The elevator slowly stopped, and there was a crisp sound, calling back the red skull's wandering heart.

After settling down, the elevator door opened, and the red skeleton looked at the pitch-black corridor, his eyes full of fire, but soon, these emotions were suppressed by him.

The red skull straightened his collar, then his expression changed to his calm expression, and he took a step and stepped out of the elevator.

This layer is the layer that belongs exclusively to the Red Skull, and in the eyes of the vast majority of other Hydra members, this layer is 'non-existent', or rather, they don't deserve to know about its existence.

The corridor was quiet, except for the emergency lights, there was no light source, and the red skull walked through the corridor with ease, thinking about it, he knew everything here so well.

This is where Red Skull was purpose-built, and the only way to get into it is through an elevator that only he can use.

A blue light suddenly appeared on the wall, and soon, a face appeared in front of the red skull.

"Password."

The man's face was expressionless.

"Under the sun."

The Red Skull replied unhurriedly.

After his words fell, the mechanical expression of the person's face instantly became somewhat humanized, and the other party looked at the red skull respectfully, and his tone was also a little courteous. "Welcome, Your Excellency, Honorable Führer."

"Well, take me to meet my advisor, Zora."

"As you wish." Zola responded.

Immediately, the originally solid wall was suddenly pulled apart, and a passage hidden in the center appeared in front of the red skull, and seeing this, the red skull walked directly in.

He didn't pay attention to Zola, and he didn't even look at him more, and it's no wonder that although the Red Skull called him 'Zola', in fact, the real Dr. Zola was already dead, and what remains here now is just an artificial intelligence researched through Dr. Zola's mind.

In a sense, this should also be the embodiment of Dr. Zola, or a reborn, but Red Skull doesn't care, he just thinks it's a very useful tool.

And in order to make this tool even more useful, Red Skull also restricts Zola's self-learning module, so that this artificial intelligence has no ideas of its own, let alone so-called thinking, and has become a perfect tool that only hearts and minds with Red Skull himself.

Walking into the dark corridor, a small room isolated by a hard alloy fence appeared in front of the red skull.

Inside the room, there is also a man tied to an alloy post, his whole body is firmly fixed, except for his head, the other limbs of his body are unable to move, and beside him, there is a robot dedicated to monitoring and caring for him.

Sensing the arrival of someone, the man slowly raised his head, and in his sight, a burly man was slowly emerging from the shadows, locked onto his scarlet demon-like face, and the man recognized the identity of the other.

The red skull came to the guardrail, and although it was dark, he could still see the man's resolute eyes through his long bangs.

"Long time no see, Otherworldly."

Red Skull said hello, but the atmosphere was so quiet that he didn't get any response, which made Red Skull's words feel like he was talking to himself.

"Still won't speak?" The red skull's eyes showed a hint of sarcasm. "You should be grateful for your origin, if you weren't from another universe, you'd have died a long time ago, or, life is better than death"

This man was discovered by the Red Skull by accident, and according to the confirmation of the Hydra researchers, they found a completely different substance from another universe, which made the Red Skull suspect that there were other universes, and it seemed that they had come here.

After locking down the situation, Red Skull secretly mobilized a lot of people and began to collect information about visitors from other worlds around the world, but Red Skull did not publicize the news with great fanfare, but carefully mobilized his henchmen to deal with it.

And the hard work pays off, and the man in front of him is the harvest of the red skull.

"Seriously, you remind me of a lot of old friends who have the same iron will as you are, and this makes me even more curious about what the other world is like.

You should understand that if it weren't for the fact that I didn't want to destroy your brain and the things in your memory, I could have brainwashed you into my best agent, so I advise you to be sensitive.

I used three lab equipment and more than twenty geneticists to get you out of Connors, not to raise a mute bride, so.

Say something. ”
