Shadow of the Beautiful World

Drip, drip, drip

The harsh warning sound echoed through Captain America's chaotic senses. He seemed to have entered a state of overflowing time, and everything around him became blurred and distorted.

When he struggled to open his eyes occasionally, he could see those dazzling lights, and some doctors in surgical gowns who were operating.

Those pictures are like montage pictures in a movie, full of a sense of unreality.

But the numb body would occasionally feel a pinprick of pain, and it was difficult for Steve to respond to the pain.

War Hulk tortured him cruelly after his victory.

This is provocative.

The war knight transformed by the apocalypse is eager for challenges and eager to see more angry warriors. It makes no secret of its enthusiasm for destruction and destruction.

Steve was just the bait it threw.

The blood shed by the legendary hero will attract more angry sharks, who will be caught by the vicious fisherman.

That's a trap!

A flash of understanding flashed in Steve's heart. He wanted to tell others the secret of War Hulk, but he couldn't.

That's not the Hulk, and it's not Banner.

That's a monster.

A monster shaped with malice, with the strength of Hulk and the wisdom of Banner, it doesn't even need to use anger to enhance itself.

Its existence is the most terrifying evil in this world.

And, monsters like the War Hulk, Apocalypse made 4 of them!

A whole 4!

Outside the operating room, Fury in a robe gritted his teeth and looked at Steve who was undergoing treatment with a complicated look.

Behind her, the eagle-eyed spider with purple glasses folded her arms, and her aura became even colder.

There was an aura of common hatred spreading over the two of them.

Does Sharon know the news?

Hawkeye asked in a low voice, and the female version of Fury shook her head. She said:

Sharon is on an espionage mission in the 11th century and she won't be back in 14 days. I don't want her to worry. Steve will make it through. He's a strong man. I've never seen a stronger soul than him.

But he can't go to the battlefield again!

The eagle-eyed spider with Natasha's will as its main body gritted its teeth and said:

You also heard what the doctor said. Steve's body has suffered devastating torture. Even the super soldier serum can't cure him.

He was tortured by that monster and turned into a cripple. You should know that for an unyielding warrior, this torture is more painful than death. He lost in the battle against evil...

If we still lose in the end, then Steve will think that his failure caused this, and it will become a shadow that hangs over his life, and his future has been ruined.

Then we can't lose!

Fury took a deep breath, looked back at the eagle-eyed spider, and said:

There is news from Utopia Island. The mutants are preparing to fight back. They seem to know the identity of the mastermind behind the scenes. We must unite, as before, more united than before.

Steve's ambition to protect the world will be fulfilled by us!

We won't lose!

Fury's tone was firm.

Although she is a woman now, at this moment, the aura of the former bureau chief is undoubtedly revealed in her.

Let's go.

Fury glanced back at Steve, who was lying in the emergency room, and she said something to the eagle eye spider.

The two left here quickly, and a few minutes after they left, another slender figure silently walked out the window of the emergency room.

Betty Ross, with messy hair, looked at the intense operation with a look full of guilt.

She saw Steve's miserable appearance. When Steve was brought back by the fusion body of the Fantastic Four, it was like a bloody lump. It was impossible to tell that it was Captain America who was once high-spirited.

It's the Hulk who made it all happen.

Banner did it.

It was her husband who personally destroyed a legendary hero, and Betty failed to wake up Banner. Perhaps, it was her weakness and incompetence that directly led to the tragedy in front of her.

sorry...

Betty bit her lip, she put her hand on the window, and said to Steve who was lying in the ward in a crying voice:

If I had worked a little harder, if I could have used it a little more, if I could have persuaded Banner and Hulk... sorry Steve, sorry...

The terrible sense of guilt beat Betty Rose's mind like a heavy tide, making her beautiful eyes full of unresolved pain and despair.

Not just because Steve got hurt because of her.

More importantly, Hulk has shown a cruel character that has never been seen before. If Hulk is allowed to go on like this, she will definitely lose the man she loves.

Even if Banner is reawakened in the end, the kind man will be completely broken by the evil he has done.

Based on Betty's understanding of Banner, the moment he wakes up, he may choose to end his blood-stained life.

She couldn't save Banner.

Like she couldn't save Steve.

Despair, despair overwhelmed Dr. Betty. The girl who grew up in a military family felt that she could not breathe, as if the will was crushed by the terrible fear attached to despair and choked her throat.

She whimpered in pain, leaning against the wall, curled up in the corner.

She can only cry, only shed tears, she can't do more.

No, you can!

A hallucinatory voice struck Betty's broken heart at this moment.

The voice spoke to her in a gentle, encouraging voice:

Poor child, this mysterious world will never dismiss a soul that longs for redemption. As long as you want to save the disaster caused by yourself, as long as your will to redeem your sins is firm enough and you are willing to make sacrifices, then... .and you'll get a miracle.

Miracle?

Betty looked up blankly, she seemed to be talking to the air, her eyes were blank, she said:

Is it really possible to end all this before everything is irreparable?

Yes, of course, and you can do it with your own hands, it's very simple.

The voice said persuasively:

You should have heard the story of Thor, the god who descended from the sky with a thunder hammer, dispelling despair and bringing hope, the legendary man from Asgard, you must have heard the story about the magical Thor's hammer.

Let me tell you, child. There is more than one Thor's hammer that can bring hope to the desperate...

That voice cast a projection of purple thunder dancing wildly in the sky into the desperate Betty's heart, his tone became more gentle, and he said:

The legends of God's Domain don't just belong to God's Domain, kid.

It belongs to every kind person who chases hope in the Nine Kingdoms. I see rare qualities in you. Your heart is full of guilt and love. You will become a hero and you will end this with your own hands.

Go for it, Betty.

Then call its name...Κataσtp?ψtetηγη. (Nur. Territory Breaker)

Go, Betty, on your way to redemption, you can do more, you can save your loved ones, you can protect the world, all it takes is a small... sacrifice.

————————————————————————

Under the deep sea, the big snake Kur, who was supposed to stay out of it, was sitting leisurely on the sarcophagus that had been transformed into a throne in the shape of a black-haired middle-aged man with a hulking back.

In the projection in front of Kur's eyes, he saw the back of Betty Ross, who had made up her mind, quietly leaving the secret base in the posture of a martyr.

That slender and firm figure made Orochi nod in satisfaction.

The will of a mortal, hehe, a ridiculous thing...

Orochi leaned lazily on his throne, propped his chin with his left hand, and waved away the projection in front of him.

He said softly:

With just a little guidance, desperate souls are willing to give everything for 'love', ah, how blind, how pure...I like this world, and I'm starting to enjoy this world.

As he spoke, Big Snake took a deep breath quite intoxicated.

The fear that lingers in the air of this sealed place, the invisible conceptual power, is becoming more and more intense as the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse wreak havoc all over the world.

For Big Snake, this thing is much more delicious than any delicacies from mountains and seas.

Well, this taste is really not satisfying.

Fearful Heavenly Father closed his eyes with nostalgia. In the aftertaste of savoring fear, he commanded the Venerable Sky Hammer, Seabreaker Aum standing beside him:

Go, according to the location I told you, send the remaining 6 Dread Hammers there. It must be fast, it must be hidden, and it must not be discovered by those who want to.

Orm heard the order of the big snake, but he was as motionless as a statue.

This indifferent gesture made Orochi frown.

He opened his eyes and looked at the silent Aum. After a few seconds, he sighed and patted the armrest of the throne helplessly. He said:

Are you using this uncooperative way to force me to fulfill my promise to you?

Orm didn't speak.

But silence is everything.

I said, I will fulfill my promise!

Orochi accentuated his tone, and said a little irritably:

You people on Earth, your souls are full of indelible bad roots, let me explain to you, I need to get more, pure fear power, in order to give you more power.

What's worse now is that there is another bastard on the earth who feeds on fear who is robbing me of food, which makes my recovery far slower than planned, you should be considerate of me!

I have been understanding for almost 7 months.

Orm the Sea Breaker, wearing a strange metal helmet, said coldly:

I think I'm generous enough for a collaborator who has repeatedly broken his promise.

hehe.

Orochi sneered twice at Aum's response.

He looked at the Seabreaker, and said in a playful tone:

You are determined, now I can't do without you, right? Use this to blackmail me?

yes!

Facing the murderous retort question from the big snake, Aum looked very calm, and the prince of the sea said calmly:

You are also afraid, the Raven's plans for you scare you.

As long as the raven is still alive, you won't dare to act aboveboard, and even if the raven disappears, there will still be the Supreme Mage Doom holding the Stone of Time.

Weak you are no match for him, and the mighty power of the Stone of Time can easily seal you for another ten thousand years...

You need me, big snake, without my help, you can't complete the selection of other Sky Hammer Venerables without anyone noticing.

Orm touched the abyss ripper warhammer like a large claw hammer hanging on his waist, and said:

Let me be honest, I know that after you recover, you may crush me to death the first time, but I don't care!

The premise of my agreement with you is that you will help me rescue my mother from exile. I have already lost everything, and I don't want to lose my only family member. In order to save her, I will give everything and put my soul Sold to the evil god...

Orm paused, gritted his teeth and said:

You can also betray the evil god because of this! There is nothing in this world that I am afraid of.

Aum's sharp counterattack made Orochi's laughter stop suddenly, and his expression became cold.

But he couldn't refute Aum's claim.

This prince of the ocean really seized the best opportunity to blackmail him. The big snake narrowed his eyes. After a few minutes of suffocating, he suddenly smiled and said:

Okay, okay, what a filial son, I really started to envy Queen Atlanta, if only I had such a filial son in the future.

The fearful Father resumed his previous sitting position.

He leaned lazily on the throne and said to Orm:

You send half of the Warhammer of Dread first, and I will give you strength. Then, you go to save Mom. After you finish your mission, you come back to me and send the remaining half of the Warhammer away...

It's good for you and good for me. You don't have to worry about my falling out...how do you like it?

Orochi's proposal made Aum purse his lips.

After hesitating for more than ten seconds, he nodded and accepted the job.

He glanced at the 6 fear hammers of various shapes placed on the edge of this lonely hall, and he said:

Where do I send them? To whom?

Send the Hammer of Nuer to Miss Betty.

Big Snake waved his fingers, and said in an orderly manner:

Two of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are currently active on the east coast, so I sent the Hammer of Greysos to New York City. I have already found a master for it.

As for the last one, the Hammer of Gauss, let me think about it... Well, let's throw it to Utopia Island, which is full of heroes who want revenge after a fiasco. I don't think they will miss it. This send A door-to-door revenge force.

Uh, no, it can't be called revenge, it's too explicit.

The big snake stroked his stubbled chin, his narrowed eyes gleamed with sarcasm, and he said:

Change it to a word that the heroes prefer.

The power to save, yes! Save, what a disgusting word.

But fear, too, can be used for salvation.

There is no good or evil in power, as long as they are willing to make a little...sacrifice, to do great things, how can there be no sacrifice?
