[Comprehensive British and American] The life of the villain and the body of the hero

About ten minutes later, Clark came back with some wet spots on his body.

"He's stabilized, now I'll take you there. Come on, Jim." He said he was going to pick up James, who was taken aback, then moved away unnaturally.

"You haven't hugged me like this since I was ten years old." James said with some embarrassment.

Clark raised his eyebrows and realized: "You want me to carry you? In fact, it will be more comfortable to hold you."

"I can't walk by myself..." "Can you fly?"

...hit the bullseye!The answer is absolutely not!

The awkward adolescent boy can only admit defeat in the face of reality, and honestly throws himself into the embrace of his adoptive father.The latter hugged the boy horizontally with very skillful and quick movements. Clark had a strong physique, and could easily wrap the young high school boy in his body and support his back.

That's right, this is the posture of the princess hugging.

James had the urge to bury his head in his adoptive father's arms with shame, and then never come out for the rest of his life.Clark soared into the air, then flew out through the open window, at a good speed at first, and then immediately accelerated to an incredible speed.James poked his head out in surprise, he couldn't see the surrounding scenery clearly, but it was strange that they were so fast and the wind was not strong.

look!The curls on Clark's forehead didn't even float.

"Is the speed too fast? But there shouldn't be any problem with the biological force field, um, I don't get used to it?" Clark lowered his head and asked in a soft voice. After all, people who were taken by him to fly at high speed for the first time were not very comfortable with it.

James shook his head blankly, and suddenly asked, "You flew Bruce like this? Is this the same posture?"

"Of course, many times." Clark smiled as if remembering something.

"Then after the first flight, he really didn't beat you?"

"..." Clark was completely speechless after being beaten for this incident.

If even the adolescent boys, James, who has always been well-behaved, sensible and mature, feel ashamed because of this flying posture, he can't wait to find a crack in the ground to sneak in.It is conceivable that Bruce, who has always been violent and proud, was hugged like this... It must be because the circumstances at the time did not allow him to fail on the spot.

"Okay, why don't you think of a more convenient position?" Clark said a little aggrieved and unwilling, "Besides, Bruce didn't beat me up after I hugged him like this, which means it's good to get used to it."

No, Bruce will never get used to it, he's just getting more and more tolerant of you.

"Is it cold?" Clark asked after flying for a while.

And James nodded, and leaned straight into Clark's arms from the cold.Maybe the biological force field can block the wind, but not the temperature.Especially when he ran to a world of ice and snow in thin summer clothes, uh, this direction is the North Pole?

"Be patient for a while, just go in." Clark comforted, speeding up.

After half a minute, they stopped in front of a magnificent crystal building.Such a magnificent, exquisite and high-tech fortress stands in the uninhabited and rarely known depths of the Arctic, it is like a miracle in a fairy tale.

Clark picked up the key on the ground, opened the door, then turned to look at the shocked James and said:

"Welcome to my base, welcome to the Fortress of Solitude."

James followed Clark into this glorious high-tech base, and then gradually recovered from the visual shock after 5 minutes. He sat on the chair and licked his lips, hesitantly asked: "Do you have a base in the North Pole?" Fortress?"

"Yeah." Clark nodded. He just made a cup of hot cocoa for the child and asked James to warm his hands.

"A, super cool, fortress in the North Pole?!" James repeated with a wooden face.

"As you can see." Clark sat down beside him and replied calmly.As if instead of owning a cool high-tech base in the North Pole, he just bought a one-bedroom apartment in some small city.

"I need to take it easy." James said, bowed his head and took a sip of sweet hot cocoa. The temperature in the room was very comfortable, which made him feel alive from the freezing soon.

"In fact, I haven't been back for a long time. This is left to me by my parents. I just picked a quiet place that is difficult for humans to reach. In fact, I didn't have much time to come before." Clark explained gently.

James looked around again, and then suddenly asked as if remembering something: "I remember someone said that Captain America was also frozen in the North Pole, but it shouldn't be so inside."

"Captain America?" Clark recalled for a while, and then his super brain immediately gave the answer, "Yes, I heard about it when I was a child. I went around the North Pole before, but I didn't find him. But the North Pole It’s so big, and I was in a hurry at the time, so I didn’t take a good look at it. If you want, I’ll accompany you to search here when you have time. He is a hero, and it is indeed necessary to retrieve his body and send him back for burial. Do you like Captain America?"

"No, it's just that I chose "History of Modern Heroes" this semester. It's hard to imagine that there would be so many superheroes back then. But now it seems to have disappeared. Our teacher said that most of the heroes died because of fighting each other. In the war, those who survived were either exiled or imprisoned by sanctions, or refused to show up again. The book called that period the "age of fallen heroes", and the golden age of heroes was gone forever. "James said holding his hot cocoa, and didn't look up to see how uncomfortable his adoptive father's face was at the moment.

"The book said that Captain America did not catch up with the Justice League in the golden age, but maybe this is a lucky thing." James remembered that the book said that it is more honorable to die fighting the Nazis than to die in the heroic civil war .

"Perhaps, so." Clark said softly.

"But what the books say is not always true. I don't think it is more honorable to die fighting the Nazis than to die in the civil war. Both are heroes standing up for their beliefs and justice. Everyone goes astray, only But for superheroes, because they are too powerful, they will not allow a little bit of crime, and they will not be allowed to have a little bit of hesitation and confusion. But this is... unfair. Not everyone wants to be a superhero, But when the power falls on them, they choose to be a good person instead of a bad person, which is not easy." James said in a muffled voice, "I did the same in my final paper, and the teacher gave me a B+ , told me the ideas were interesting but lacked a tenable argument.”

"But they are very powerful, and this kind of power is the most unfair to ordinary people. Because a single thought of a powerful person can endanger the lives of ordinary people, so superheroes must have firm beliefs, and cannot be shaken or flinched." Clark calmly He said calmly: "However, all of this has never been easy. Your teacher is actually right."

James looked up at Clark, and at that moment, he almost asked if you, too, were once a member of the superhero class.He is not stupid, with those super speed, line of sight scanning, and such a luxurious base, coupled with the age calculation of the slow aging rate, Clark and Bruce are likely to be members of the golden age that year, and may have participated in the Hero War.

Maybe that's when Bruce was paralyzed...

But James couldn't ask. When he saw Clark's vicissitudes of life, he swallowed the question silently.Because he knew that as long as he asked, Clark would answer, but Clark would definitely suffer from it.Since it is a thing of the past, since the golden age of heroes has fallen, even if Bruce and Clark are just ordinary people living in seclusion, there is no need to mention many things.

"How is that man's injury?" James changed the subject.

Clark nodded and said: "The AI ​​told me that his vital signs have stabilized. However, it will take some time to repair the internal and external injuries. He is currently sleeping in the biomedical cabin. I will take you to see it later. But wait for him to heal. I will take him away from here, he cannot see and know what is going on here."

"I see, Clark." James replied obediently.

Hydra's special operations team leader has been cranky these days.

He couldn't help being irritable, because he lost one of the most important "assets" of the organization, the killer weapon known as the Winter Soldier, or the Winter Soldier for short, and it was all due to his misjudgment!

He misjudged the extent of the task. He thought that a task of this level would only take a few minutes for the Winter Soldier to do it.But he doesn't know it's a trap, the damn Russians still don't give up on the Winter Soldier!Except for Hydra, only the Russians know the situation of the Winter Soldier best. They have made several plans specifically for the "assets" and dispatched a lot of manpower and material resources... But these details were all ignored due to their own mistakes .

The Russians' special sonic weapon stimulated the Winter Soldier's brain, but the Russians also made a big mistake.They thought the Winter Soldier would be better subdued after the brainwashing effect temporarily receded?

Big mistake!They deserved to be slaughtered in blood!

Don't you know that the Winter Soldier's temper has become extraordinarily cruel due to being frozen and losing his memory all the year round?I don't know that once there is no Hydra's brainwashing technique to calm him down and turn him into a completely emotionless weapon, the Winter Soldier will fall into a state of madness because his brain is too chaotic-that is, the state of killing whoever he sees?

The Russians were driven into a hurry, so in the end they were ruthless. They didn't want a living Winter Soldier, and they couldn't get a living Winter Soldier even if they only asked Hydra.When they brought people to help "the assets", it was a bloody hell, with severed limbs thrown everywhere, and there were no Winter Soldiers among the corpses.

The good news is that the asset was not completely destroyed; the bad news is that the asset's brain briefly regained self-awareness, then rejected the Hydra communication, removed the tracker, and ran to some ghostly corner!

He is still hiding this matter from his superiors, but if he lets his superiors know that the Winter Soldier has been lost in his hands... the various memory images that flashed before his eyes made the operation captain who has experienced many battles feel horrified, and climbed up from his tailbone. A chill.

The action captain broke the pen used to fill out the report in his hand, his face was grimly contorted.He gritted his teeth, with a ferocious look as if he was making a difficult but necessary decision.

He made a note of it, damned Russians, damned Winter Soldier!

But now is not the time to settle accounts. The top priority is to find the Winter Soldier before this is revealed, no matter what the cost!
