This battle may seem small in scale and no one died, but it was a truly devastating outcome for the Avengers.
At the end of the picture, Zemo is imprisoned in a well-equipped prison, indicating that he has also been tried.
Secretary of State Ross looked at him coldly and said, "Eat at 8 am and 5 pm! You can go to the bathroom twice a day! Speak loudly, and I'll shock you! Touch the glass, and I'll shock you! If you do anything excessive, I'll punish you. Please, give it a try!"
He didn't want this guy, who had caused him so much trouble, to have an easy time even for a minute.
Colonel Zemo, on the other hand, had no expression on his face and showed no reaction at all.
Seeing that his threats had no effect at all, Agent Ross was also very angry. He stepped forward and said, "How do you feel? You spent so much time and effort, and in the end, you failed miserably!"
Colonel Zemo just smiled and said, "Did it really fail?"
The people outside the screen understood Colonel Zemo's smile and words.
It seems that he failed in this matter, and even he, the mastermind behind the incident, was arrested, but is the problem really solved?
No!
Because the Avengers have been conquered from within!
The Avengers, who were so powerful that they could even defeat aliens, were disintegrated from within by him.
The scene changed again, and in the extremely empty Avengers headquarters base, Tony Stark was helping War Machine Rhodes with rehabilitation training.
"This is the first training session. Give me feedback, anything you can think of!" Tony Stark said as he supported War Machine Rhodes. "Shock absorption, lateral movement, cup holder?"
At this time, War Machine Rhodes was already disabled, but Tony Stark specially developed related exoskeleton armor.
"Maybe we should consider installing air conditioning down there!" Rhodes joked, but he fell to the ground the next second.
He tried hard to get up, and after a moment, he smiled bitterly and said, "One hundred and thirty-eight times, one hundred and thirty-eight combat missions. I have flown one hundred and thirty-eight combat missions, Tony. Every time I might not come back, but I still went because it was a battle that had to be fought!
The same thing happened with the Agreement. I signed it because it was the right thing to do. This is indeed a very bad thing, but it didn't change my mind. I don't think so!
At the end of the video, Stan Lee makes a guest appearance to deliver a package, and Tony Stark is permanently banned.
Tony's a big shit!
This video is finally over, and today's diary is finally over.
But for everyone in S.H.I.E.L.D., they may have never experienced such a painful thing in their lives.
The atmosphere was getting weirder and weirder, but everyone had no choice but to watch it all.
After a moment, Nick Fury was the first to speak, breaking the silence. He said, "This incident is also a huge warning to us. When we are saving the world and performing our missions, we must be more careful and try not to hurt anyone. We may only hurt one person, but it may destroy the hope of a family.
Every time someone dies because of us, the world becomes more angry.
We are not the only ones who have normal emotions. There are also ordinary people whose anger can accumulate and consume everything."
Everyone nodded when they heard this.
This time, what happened to Colonel Zemo served as a reminder to them that when a common man is angry, blood will be splattered everywhere.
An ordinary special forces colonel, yes, to them, such a person can only be regarded as ordinary, but he calculated them clearly, directly causing the Avengers on that timeline to be torn apart, and even directly affecting the people and things on their timeline.
Even their current Avengers alliance might be torn apart.
If they didn't know that there would be even more terrifying enemies later and that the three giants would join forces to deal with Thanos, I'm afraid the Avengers would have disbanded by now and everyone would have gone their separate ways.
"What happened in Sokovia might have been an accident. We'd better figure out why it exploded..." Hawkeye Barton said. "It feels weird to me, don't you? The ship I was on in the previous video didn't seem like a traditional ship."
"Of course it's not a traditional ship," Nick Fury said. "Now that we're on this, and we're not strangers here, I'll be frank. That ship was developed internally by S.H.I.E.L.D. It's a floating craft used in conjunction with the helicarrier, and is designed to facilitate boarding and disembarking of personnel."
"The Helicarrier Project? Is that the Helicarrier you were on during the Chitauri invasion in the previous video?" Tony Stark asked.
Nick Fury nodded.
And other people obviously don't have the authority to know about this.
"So, what you're actually saying is that the city we were in at that time was flying?" Tony Stark reacted immediately.
Since this airship is used to transport personnel to and from the aerospace mothership, its purpose is very clear.
Plus what Colonel Zemo said about blowing up Sokovia.
After a little deduction, it was immediately clear that it was Sokovia that flew up, so they wanted to blow up Sokovia. After all, if such a big city fell from a high altitude, the consequences would be very serious.
It would probably just create a hole in the Earth, and then there would be another mass extinction of life on Earth. Not to say that all life would be extinct, but probably extinction of 90% would not be a big problem.
Everyone reacted quickly and realized that if Sokovia fell from a high altitude, the consequences would not be much less powerful than the asteroid that caused the extinction of the dinosaurs.
"But how did a city fly up there? Does that make sense?" Hawkeye Barton couldn't help but wonder. "Could it be another supervillain? But it's only been a few years since the Sokovia incident. Could someone have developed some sci-fi technology like an anti-gravity system in those few years?"
Everyone nodded, sharing the same opinion.
It's hard to imagine how much energy it would take to push a city high into the sky.
If this could really be done, then why would people on Earth bother to build rockets and spacecraft?
Just build a city and then push it into space to establish a colony.
Isn't that better than any technology?
"But no matter who it is, no matter what method is used, this is obviously a reality." Tony Stark did not want to marvel at how outrageous this technological development was.
Didn't you see that Nick Fury's SHIELD developed the helicarrier?
You don't really think that this can be achieved with a normal engine. There must be some new technological breakthrough.
"Yes, Tony's right. No matter who it was, no matter what method was used, it's obvious now that it's already happened. There's no point dwelling on it any longer," Bruce Banner said. "The key is how we're going to deal with this kind of situation in the future. If we were to encounter this situation again, would we still choose to blow up Sokovia? The debris would cause countless deaths. Even if it didn't hit Zemo, would that still be okay?"
Bruce Banner points out a very important point.
What will they do if the super villain appears again?
The biggest warning this incident gives them is that the huge damage they cause in the process of their actions may even backfire on them.
The Avengers are certainly not like what Colonel Zemo said, that they saved the world and then returned to New York. In fact, both S.H.I.E.L.D. and Tony Stark have follow-up agencies.
Tony Stark even set up a foundation for this purpose, but let's not talk about whether the money is enough to compensate for the losses. Just talking about the people who died as a result, can it be solved with money?
Thinking of this, everyone felt a bit of a headache.
"The best way now is to know in advance which super villain caused all this, but Lin Feng is the only one who knows this, so if we want to know, we can only use indirect methods to see if we can influence him and let him record it in his diary." Black Widow Natasha said.
After everyone thought about it, they realized that this was the only remaining solution.
If we really wait until Sokovia goes to space, it will be too late.
"I think it's very likely they're in Sokovia. They're probably a local supervillain, otherwise they wouldn't have chosen Sokovia," Coulson suddenly interjected. "I wonder if it could be Hydra? After all, that's their base. If there's anyone who's most likely, it's probably them."
"impossible!"
Captain America Rogers shook his head firmly and said, "Hydra may be crazy and ambitious, but their ambition is to rule the world and become the supreme leader. If, according to our analysis, Sokovia's high-altitude impact could cause mass extinction, then who will they rule?"
In Captain America Rogers' cognition, although Hydra is evil, to be precise, it should be considered an evil lawful camp. It has the idea of ruling the world, but it should not have the idea of cleansing the world.
"That's hard to say. For example, there are often villains like this in some novels. They launch a plan to destroy the world, then make preparations in advance, survive the destruction intact, and then gather the remaining people together, and appear as a god-savior." Hawkeye Barton shrugged and proposed a possibility.
Captain America Rogers opened his mouth. He originally wanted to say that it was impossible. At least in his era, there was almost no such crazy idea of destroying the world and then ruling the remaining humans.
But it's not impossible!
