West's Summer [Comprehensive English and American]

Steve Rogers felt that this time he encountered one of the most incomprehensible events in his life.

Arriving at full speed to the science center where S.H.I.E.L.D. was attacked, only to find that nothing of value was lost other than the damage to the building.It seems that the attackers just came to the most secure place in the world to smash a few pieces of glass on a whim, and then walked away... I have to say, if the enemy's purpose is just to mess themselves up, then they really did it.

"So, is it just a demonstration against S.H.I.E.L.D., or a warning?"

Watching the surveillance video, the man whose arms were constantly changing into various weapons and shooting around, after destroying almost an entire floor, suddenly disappeared from people's sight out of thin air.Clint and Coulson, who was in charge of the investigation, looked at each other for a while, then turned to Captain America with a dignified expression, and tentatively opened his mouth.

"It's unlikely. If it's just to achieve a panic effect, they can go to attack the S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters or a more important location-judging from the scene, I have no doubt that they can do this."

Therefore, since they chose this place, it means that there is something in the science center that caught their attention.

The brow wrinkled even tighter.After thinking for a while, Steve turned his head and looked at the agent beside him: "Is there any dangerous thing hidden in this building, or is there any special experiment being carried out? Especially about mutants."

"No, cap." Coulson shook his head lightly:

"There are a lot of people entering and leaving this building. It is impossible for S.H.I.E.L.D. to keep secrets here... However, regarding the latter, I know that there is a laboratory that seals some files seized in a certain Hydra base. It is Regarding the data of their experiments on mutants, there is nothing else that can be related to mutants."

"take me."

With such a concise and forceful command, Steve signaled Coulson to lead the way ahead.He had a hunch that if the attacker must have some purpose, the only possibility is that there are some secrets hidden in those experimental data.

Perhaps, they are lucky enough to find the answers they want there.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

"So, what did you find?"

Dodge the pile of damp and rotting wood beneath your feet.West pursed his lips in disgust, and with a wave of his hand, the sheets of light floating around him spread out, illuminating the entire floor.

No one was hiding around the corner, nor was there anything unusual looking, just like the areas he had searched before.Compared with SHIELD, it seems that there are no valuable clues left here.

Relaxing a little, he adjusted his earphones and began to listen carefully to the message from Captain America.

"As Coulson said, it's just some data. Because some parts are missing, Tony and Dr. Banner can't see anything."

There was the sound of paper flipping through the current.Steve held a stack of documents that looked very old at first glance, squinting his eyes and trying to find something that was ignored by everyone:

"It's probably the record of a mad scientist experimenting with mutants. The number is not small. We are still sorting out... Wait, Clint seems to have found something?"

"Ok?"

Startled by the captain's sudden raised voice, West almost stepped into the broken hole in the ground.

"A...plan..."

Steve's voice was blurred by the electric current, he frowned, and tried to walk to a place on the edge of the floor that was more suitable for communication, but he still couldn't quite hear what was said on the other side.Meanwhile, the Black Widow and Winter Soldier channels started asking what the hell was going on.

"The signal on the cap seems to be a bit disturbed, I'll fix it right away." Immediately switching the communication back to his side, Tony kept typing on the keyboard in front of him:

"I saw the files they found... Wei, have you heard of 'Project High Tower'?"

"'Tower Project'?" He tilted his head in doubt, West glanced at the dizzying height under his feet, and stepped back unconsciously, "It sounds familiar, but I can't remember it for a while... …how?"

"It's written on the document that cap got, and there's a capital 'x', I thought it was something made by you X-Men."

Turning the surveillance camera closer, Tony Stark dutifully relayed the broadcast for the captain: "There is a plan to use the genes of a certain mutant to create bionic soldiers. It seems that some experiments have been carried out, but they were suddenly interrupted for some reason... ...the mutant's name is not written on it, only two code names - 'Dr. Yi' and 'The Hermit'..."

His heart skipped a beat, and the moment he heard those two mysterious code names, West's face immediately became very ugly.He took a deep breath and stabilized the uneasy floating light source around him. He was about to ask Tony for some details, but was suddenly interrupted by a sharp and noisy electric sound in the earphones.

"*...what's going on, Tony? Tony?!"

Rubbing his aching ears, he covered his forehead, and his tone became anxious.Iron Man didn't answer right away, which wasn't a good sign.The vague shouts mixed with Steve's voice were intermittent in the headset, like a movie projected through a curtain, and he had no way of knowing what his friends were going through.

"what the hell...!!"

Only after distinguishing this sentence from the headset, the wind blowing by his cheeks suddenly stopped.For a few seconds, the world seemed to be isolated from the eyes, silently, reflecting the last trace of silence before destruction.

Alarm bells rang in West's heart.

"Snapped--"

Instinctively leaped backwards, rolled a few times in embarrassment in the dust all over the floor.When the boy climbed up from the ground, a steel bar was inserted obliquely. The place where he was standing before seemed to be pulled from the top of his head with great force, and even brought down several thick cement slabs on the ceiling.

—Someone is here.

Of course, it can sense a few strange brain waves in the originally empty building in a blink of an eye.Before he had time to think about why they suddenly appeared here out of thin air, West's eyebrows twitched, and he immediately stretched out his hand to freeze the air in front of him, just blocking the bullet that shot at him from nowhere.

No one can stop breathing.Therefore, airflow, as a substance permanently imprinted in everyone's consciousness, is the easiest and most stable force that West can manipulate.

"who is it?!"

Let the bullets slowly float around the body, and at the same time push the light to the widest range, illuminating every blind spot.He stood still, guarding against an attack that might come from anywhere, while trying to synchronize his opponent's brainwaves and force them to manifest.

over there--! !

Turning around abruptly, he swung an air blade that could tear anything apart towards his right back.Before West had time to see where the attack was coming from, the brain waves he sensed suddenly disappeared from his lock.At the same time, the space in front of the boy's eyes suddenly became distorted, and before he realized what was going on, there was a sharp pain in his chest from being hit by a heavy object.All of a sudden, he flew backwards and slammed into the mottled load-bearing wall behind him.

"cough……"

It feels like all the internal organs are tumbling.He fell to the ground powerlessly, and the opponent's brainwaves that disappeared before reappeared in his induction, this time he did not move any more, but stopped not far from him.

The sound of heavy objects falling to the ground seemed to be heard from the floor below his feet, and West endured the pain and struggled to raise his head.

"...West...West?! Can you hear me?"

Without the artificial distortion of space, the wireless signal of the Bluetooth headset becomes stable again.Through the electric current, Captain America's somewhat anxious voice finally came at this time:

"Three mutants attacked us just now and took away the 'Tower Project'. Among them was a space-capable user who disappeared immediately after he got it, and we couldn't track it down. You must be careful, they—"

"One is a woman with red hair, and the other is a boy in a black cloak." With a wry smile, West added on behalf of the captain.

"There is also a strong man whose arm can be turned into any weapon..." Bucky's weak voice came from the earphone.Obviously, when West was assassinated on the roof, he also met a formidable enemy who teleported from S.H.I.E.L.D.

"Steve, your news updates are too slow... Can't that tin can find a way to get a better communication channel?"

"...*."

No matter how dull people are, they will understand by this time that they have been tricked.Now, even Captain Rogers, who has always been gentle and polite, couldn't help scolding.

Don't bother to argue with Bucky.Tony pushed Dr. Banner to his position, summoned Jarvis to put on his armor and rushed out.

——Just kidding, that's the guy who played Captain America and almost beat the Winter Soldier and X-Men!With such a formidable enemy, if he could still sit in the building, he wouldn't be Stark! !

"Meet you for the first time, both of you."

He didn't pay attention to what Steve said in the communicator again, and didn't have the energy to pay attention.West stood up with difficulty, reached out and pressed the bleeding forehead, and smiled at the two people who couldn't see their faces not far away:

"Perhaps I should ask Charles to update my mutant information... I think you are not newcomers recruited by Magneto?"

"If Magneto's subordinates were like us, Professor X's school of mutants would have been flattened long ago."

Staring at West, who was clearly crumbling but still maintaining his demeanor with great interest, the woman in red shook her head regretfully: "The 'x' sign, mutants, the Tower Project, you really don't feel like you are linking these things together. Should I remember something?"

Gritting his teeth, he pressed back the fishy sweetness surging in his throat.He frowned and stared at her for a long time, feeling as if he was walking in a dark corridor where he couldn't see his fingers. The closer he got to the truth of the exit, the more unspeakable panic accumulated in his body.

He hadn't felt this way for a long time since that unbearable tragedy.

"It seems that you have already guessed something."

Stretching out a finger and shaking it ambiguously, the pupils reflected West's gradually fading face, and the woman laughed happily:

"Dr. Yi sends you greetings—and, our game begins, Your Excellency the Hermit."
