The Witch's Bodyguard [Comprehensive Anglo-American]

Steve just adjusted the program of the jet fighter to the autopilot mode. After a few hours, the high-speed plane will be able to directly arrive in Siberia, an extremely cold and snow-covered plateau all year round.There is a hidden underground fortress that belongs to Hydra's secret military base, where Bucky was trained.

"What's going to happen to your friend?" Bucky said suddenly, watching Steve's back.

Steve turned his head, and the young man who couldn't show a warm smile on his face finally fought side by side with him again. In a trance, Steve seemed to have returned to 70 years ago.But his emotions did not become high because of this. When Bucky asked this question, Steve felt very helpless: "No matter what happens in the future, I will face it."

"It's not worth it." After a long time, Bucky said again, "What you have done for me, and I still have the task order to assassinate you in my mind, I can't even make sure that I will face you A shot in the back."

"It's not your fault." Steve said, and he said frankly, "I should have done something for you, Bucky." Steve walked to his side and patted the young man on the shoulder, "When you Falling off a cliff, I should have gone down to find you, you had a chance to be rescued, and you wouldn’t become Hydra’s killing tool.” Steve couldn’t forgive himself, he had to give up Bucky for the mission, he didn’t He doesn't regret his original choice, but it doesn't mean he hasn't felt pain for his behavior.

That mission was very successful, Captain America saved thousands of people, but only Bucky was sacrificed.

"But you're right," Bucky said, and he didn't blame Steve at all, didn't even show a trace of complaint, "You can't stop the operation, you're a soldier, you're my friend second, we all knew that at the time How dangerous the situation is is more important than confirming my life and death, even I will definitely make the same decision as you."

Steve shook his head slowly, the suffocation gripped his throat: "So this time, no matter what, I won't give up on you again, even if the whole world thinks I'm wrong."

"I'm a wanted criminal. Whether it's my intention to kill someone or not, I'm the one who kills them." Bucky said calmly, "I remember how they looked before they died."

"That's because you have no choice." Steve said,

Bucky said: "Although I know that we are friends, and I also know your little habits of life before, I only have memories of you, not the feelings you have for me. There are too many chaotic pictures in my brain , They planted a lot of fake illusions into my brain, and I can't tell which ones are real and which ones are fake." Bucky said apologetically, "I can't guarantee what we will encounter after we arrive at the base. Once out of control, I hope you will try your best to stop me, even if you strike harder, I hope you will strike harder, because it will be good for us."

"I understand." Steve said, "After the trouble in Siberia is solved, I can help you retrieve your memory. If you want, I am willing to take you back to the old place."

Baki said: "There's no need to trouble yourself, that witch, you call her Linglong, she could have reminded me of everything. We met alone, she came prepared, but returned empty-handed. "

"I think we can take it one step at a time." Steve said nervously, "I guess Linglong didn't ask you to recall everything immediately because you couldn't accept all your experiences in the past 70 years. She must have seen When it comes to your memory, real memory, I'm glad she was a kind girl."

"You always have to remember everything, no matter if you think about it slowly or quickly." Bucky said, he lowered his head slightly, "What's more, I also really want to know what Natasha has with me. relationship, I have a weird feeling about her, I think we're more than just acquainted."

"Maybe you are a couple." Steve put on a relaxed tone, "I think this possibility is very high."

Bucky said happily: "Really, then I should think about it more quickly. In fact, I do have a crush on her. I think there must be some kind of tacit understanding between me and her." He showed a charming smile, It reminds Steve immediately of that jovial Bucky from Brooklyn, "Sorry, Steve, I think I'd like to remember the part about Natasha sooner rather than later."

"Actually," Steve said, "I think I need to let Natasha know how much love you have, I hope you can think of your exes, remember a girl with red hair, you use Three bucks won her a bear at the fairground. Sent the two of us back home in a refrigerated truck, and I ended up with a high fever the next day.”

Bucky smiled: "It seems that I have a soft spot for red-haired girls, what's her name?"

"Doris," Steve said, "you call her Doris."

"She must be over 100 years old now," Bucky said with a smile.

"So do we, buddy." Steve couldn't help feeling sore in his heart. He hoped that Bucky could remember everything, but he was very disturbed. He wasn't sure if Bucky could face the unbearable killings he suffered in those years. experience.

the other side--

Ma Linglong did not get in touch with Stark, he rejected his wife's call and sent it to the voicemail box, the notification tone in the mailbox was full of love, which meant that Stark wanted to do it alone and did not intend to let Ma Linglong intervene .

Ma Linglong can determine Stark's location without relying on positioning, but she hopes to make it clear in advance on the phone that the trouble they are encountering is actually the layout of someone with a heart.She went back to the Avengers base first, and Vision obtained permission to use a jet fighter, and they quickly flew out of the United States.

The so-called "empire" in Trelawney's prophecy does not mean a country, and the Avengers can also be called an "empire".

"Maybe you can call Captain Rogers," Vision suggested.

"It's been called, it's not in the service area." Ma Linglong said.

Iron Man and Captain America had a fight 12 hours ago. They took their respective manpower and blew up the Leipzig-Halle Airport in Germany to rubble.There is no doubt that Stark will make up for all the losses. For this reason, he established the "Stark Damage Control Center" as early as after the New York War. This agency is responsible for cleaning up and rebuilding all kinds of damage caused by superhero battles.

Stark was injured in the battle, which was no less serious than that in the New York War. Vision didn't immediately tell Ma Linglong who injured Stark. He seemed to know what Ma Linglong would do. Reaction.In fact, Stark was injured by more than one person.

Colonel Rhodes was the most seriously injured among all the people. The accident caused him to fall from a height of several thousand meters and his whole body was almost paralyzed.Ma Linglong saw Rhodes lying in the regeneration cabin in the intensive care unit of the Avengers base, and several medical authorities were operating on him. Fortunately, Stark found Strange.

As for the others, Barton and the others, those who stood beside Captain America and helped Steve leave Germany smoothly.They were arrested and temporarily locked up at the bottom of the circular building in the middle of the Uncharted Sea, a prison built by the United Nations government to deal with super criminals.

"What is there in Siberia?" Ma Linglong seemed to be talking to himself, and seemed to be asking the illusion.

"Things that destroy the world, I guess." Vision said slowly, "Otherwise Captain Rogers would not pay so much attention to it. I think we can only discover the truth when we get there."

The psychiatrist who performed the psychological assessment for Bucky was pretended to be the real doctor. His body was found in a hotel in Germany at 10:[-] this morning. The person who approached Bucky instead of him was a colonel who used to have an elite army. Sophisticated and cruel.

His name is Helmut Zemo.

Zemo, an unfortunate man who lost his family, was cut off by Ultron in the building where he lived with his wife and children during the battle between the Avengers and Ultron's Sokovia.

This is what Natasha found out not long ago. The name of the conspirator and his background, the female agent sent this important information to Stark immediately.And Steve didn't want to help Bucky escape, they wanted to expose the conspiracy of the conspirators. During this period, because Natasha helped Steve evacuate, the government targeted her again. Natasha had left the United States a few hours ago .

"Three men, one of them a murderer, broke apart and fought, and an empire fell." This is Trelawney's complete prophecy, and it means that the three of them may become enemies.

Ma Linglong wasn't sure whether the prophecy had been fulfilled. The "three men" should have exchanged fire. Of course, it was more likely that it was just Stark's unilateral attack. After all, Steve couldn't do anything to him.According to the description of the vision, Stark and Steve have not yet reached the point of breaking up, and neither of them has made any real moves towards each other.

Ma Linglong felt a little uneasy in her heart, she always felt that something was missing in the whole matter.

Zemo tried his best to lure Bucky, but exposed all his crimes in such a short time, and then took everyone to Siberia, as if that place was the end of his revenge.

Vision probably also had the same idea, that's why he went to the magic world to find her.

"How is the king of Wakanda?" Ma Linglong asked.

T'Challa will not let go of the opportunity to sanction Bucky, and he must have followed up.

"Very wise," Vision said.

"Are you sure?" Ma Linglong asked suspiciously, "Will a wise person pursue the wrong target?"

"The deceased was his father. His behavior was violent but normal. It is very difficult to keep calm in the face of the death of a loved one. I think you can understand that feeling." Vision paused for a moment, and he seemed to suddenly associate He frowned slightly when he saw something, he rarely showed any emotions other than indifference, but Ma Linglong didn't care.

In the entire Avengers base, only Stark may have noticed that Vision's attitude towards Wanda is a little different.

Ma Linglong fell into a short thought. What Howard said in the video made it difficult for her to calm down the irritability in her heart. She was sure that it was definitely not the blood flow caused by pregnancy.

Of course, Howard did not join Hydra. He just used his talent to impress some Nazi scientists. With his eloquence and a little charisma, he easily stole a lot of secrets from the other party.Howard pretended in front of the Nazi scientists that he was actually an avid science enthusiast, and he was unkempt, keen to entangle with beautiful women, and had no sense of justice or evil. His behavior was quickly appreciated.

After all, most of that group of scientists are known for their madness.

Howard's original intention was to obtain technology from those conceited guys and use it for himself, but he detected the conspiracy behind Hydra from their cryptic words, even though at the time, people thought Hydra was an evil organization Has been disintegrated by Captain America, just like Hitler and his henchmen.

But the fact is not so simple. On the surface, Hydra has fallen apart, but behind the scenes, they are constantly emerging. The "Winter Soldier Project" is the ultimate bargaining chip for Hydra to make a comeback.

The so-called "Winter Soldier Project" is actually the same as the "Super Soldier Project" of the American government. It uses the injection of enhanced serum to turn ordinary people into superhumans with extraordinary minds and bodies.Captain America can be said to be the only successful human experiment in the world at that time. He was perfect and impeccable, and the serum was very stable in his body.

If the enemy's spies hadn't sneaked into the laboratory to destroy the only remaining serum, and killed the only scientist who could make the serum by mistake, the American government originally wanted to use these liquids to create more soldiers as powerful as Captain America.

At that time, Howard believed that Hydra could not know how to make serum. It was a combination of a series of complicated formulas, accompanied by rare metal materials and minerals. don't know much.

However, the real situation is that the serum formula fell into the hands of Hydra after the American government recruited Nazi scientists. Even though they could not conduct experiments as blatantly as before, those scientists had no intention of betraying the organization at all.They're just making it look like they're working for America, and privately, they've been busy getting HYDRA back up.

Howard pretended to be one of them. On the one hand, he obtained information, and on the other hand, he told Peggy Carter the secret he had obtained.At that time, Howard no longer knew anyone else to trust. He had seen the darkest side of the government, and he was not sure if he could get out of it or turn it around.

The U.S. government relied so much on those scientists that no matter how hard Howard tried to persuade the Department of Defense to abandon their use, the government fell on deaf ears.

When Howard realized that Bucky was not dead after falling off the cliff, but had become another person, 10 years had passed, he was married and had little Tony, Howard was shocked at first, which meant that the super serum was in Hydra Snakes have been able to use them freely, and they have made a super soldier comparable to Captain America; Howard also hates himself very much, because he can't do anything for Bucky, he can't even get close to the extremely dangerous "Winter Soldier Project", he I just inadvertently learned this information from a Nazi scientist's file.

So he took the risk, pretending to look hungry for evil power, and eventually, he saw Bucky, the Winter Soldier, in a post-mission dormancy period, and even a brief encounter made him resentful.He knew that Hydra relied on brainwashing to control Bucky's body, using him as a very lethal weapon.

Howard discovered that whenever Bucky finished an operation, he would be frozen into the freezer. At first, he thought it was to preserve his body from aging over time.Later, he discovered that Bucky hadn't completely lost his consciousness, and in the days after he thawed, his brain would gradually recover some fragmentary memories.

Howard thought that Bucky could still be saved, and he was eager to take him out of the hands of the enemy. Howard let the high-level inside Hydra know that he could make a more perfect super serum. Howard successfully sneaked into the enemy. Unfortunately, , several times of infiltration did not allow him to really touch Bucky.

Hydra's top management actually didn't trust him that much, since Howard was not a person who was good at spy work, and the enemy was so deep.They sensed Howard's intentions and gave him a verbal warning.Howard had no choice but to send little Tony to boarding school to keep him away from this conspiracy vortex. In the eyes of outsiders, Stark and Howard, father and son, dislike each other like enemies.

In order to combat Hydra's serum experiment, Howard used several bags of manipulated serum to bring about a disaster for himself. He knew that only when he died could his son be safe, because Hydra would think that they had killed him. The most worthy one, and not bother the other one, that is undoubtedly an excessive behavior, and Hydra will not hope that his hard-hitting head will be pulled out by someone again.

However, Howard didn't expect that it was Bucky who performed the assassination mission. He tried to awaken Bucky's consciousness, at least to let Maria go.

Of course, the result was not ideal. Howard died full of resentment.

Vision patted Ma Linglong's shoulder lightly, interrupting her thinking: "Are you okay?"

Ma Linglong looked up at him, his phantom blue eyes were full of curiosity about the unknown: "What do you mean?"

"I sense another life form inside you," Vision said. "I guess that's called 'pregnancy'?"

"It's pregnancy." Ma Linglong said, "My mana is not stable. If something unexpected happens later, I hope you can take a little care of me as a pregnant woman."

Vision said: "I am amazed by the process of human beings conceiving life."

Ma Linglong said: "I think this is essentially the same as all animals on the earth."

"I belong to the earth, but I cannot conceive."

"You're a man, so of course you can't get pregnant." Ma Linglong said with some irony.

"I mean, I can't impregnate a woman," Vision said.

Ma Linglong seemed to realize something: "Who do you want to get pregnant?"

"Wanda." Vision said firmly, "If, in the future, I may marry her."

Vision's feelings for Wanda really made Ma Linglong a little unbelievable, but at the moment she was not in the mood to pay attention to the love story between the cyborg and the superhuman, the plane stopped above the destination, Ma Linglong and Vision At the same time, he noticed that there were two fighter jets with different styles stationed on the snow-capped mountain platform, one of them was completely black, and Vision thought it might be T'Challa's. He saw a black panther head logo on the side of the fighter jet.

"I'll find T'Challa first." Vision said, "You wait for me here."

"I think I can't wait." Ma Linglong covered her heart and took a deep breath. Stark was in a state of extreme anger, so intense that Ma Linglong also had an obvious discomfort reaction. She had never felt Stark before. There are too many emotions mixed in Ke's current mood, besides anger, grief, and the despair of being betrayed.

Vision chose to stay with Ma Linglong. The more likely reason was that he subconsciously cared about Stark's safety. When he heard Ma Linglong's description, Vision immediately decided to meet Stark first. .

The two quickly walked into the base. The iron gate was no longer chained. Although the internal facilities were quite old, the light bulb above the head was still on.

Not far away came the sound of metal impacts and explosions. The movement was so loud that the entire underground base trembled slightly. Ma Linglong held the wand in her hand, and her steps became faster.

It's hard to describe Ma Linglong's mood when he pushed open a metal door at the end of the corridor and saw Steve and Bucky attacking Stark at the same time. In the blink of an eye, the three men hit each other like enemies The body is quite fierce.She had probably been affected by Stark's mood, so she couldn't hold back for a while, Ma Linglong angrily pointed the tip of her wand at Bucky, almost chanting a curse.

"Calm down." Vision gripped the port of the wand tightly, "The three of them are already violent enough, you don't need to join them, let alone you are already pregnant."

The author has something to say:

The next chapter will be updated between 9:10pm and [-]:[-]pm on Monday~

There is a passage in this chapter that the author wants to say to some little angels of the Shield Winter Party. No matter under what circumstances Baji killed his parents, as an outsider, he feels that Baji is innocent, but facing the tragic death of a loved one, think about it. It's really hard to keep calm, after all, even people like Black Panther can't calm down, let alone Nini.

Regarding the author's setting for Huo Dae, in fact, I have thought about why Huo Dae was involved in the assassination at the beginning, why Hydra would let Huo Dae's son go, it stands to reason that they want Huo Dae to submit, and they can kidnap Ni Ni or threaten his family, but Hydra does not seem to have done so.So I thought, maybe Huo Dad is trying to protect Nini, so the relationship with him seems (really) not harmonious.
