Chapter 2 - Ch: 111-118

Chapter 111 Even if the whole world is against me, I will be with you

Gorgon took an unstable version of the Super Soldier Serum and received a certain amount of gamma radiation, making his strength far exceed that of a Super Soldier.

He wasn't afraid of powerful opponents, only of not having a health bar above their heads.

Steve tried to fight him, but one punch sent Gorgoncrashing through a wall.

So weak?

But Gorgon was terrified; his defense could withstand pistol and rifle attacks, and he was so afraid of death that he put all his points into defense.

Yet, he couldn't even block Captain America's punch?

The spot where he was hit throbbed faintly; sacrificing a man's function for such defense was supposed to be a good thing.

But after witnessing Captain America's strength, he finally knew what it meant to be a frog in a well!

"Ghost, stop him!"

Gorgon swore he would make Captain America's reputation utterly ruined; such a person was too terrifying!

Still want to be the leader of HYDRA?

Dream on!

A large number of personnel fled, and Gorgon's men were also fiercely battling the special forces.

Just as Steve was about to retrieve his shield, a fist appeared behind his head.

He turned and grabbed the fist, then slammed his elbow into it.

He clearly hit it, but his elbow passed right through.

The opponent delivered a low kick, and Steveimmediately created distance, using his right foot to hook up his shield.

His gaze swept over the figure in front of him, covered in grayish-white armor, with three red, camera-like eyes on a pure white mask.

"Ghost: Ava Starr, abilities include peak human physique, intangibility and invisibility, and mixed martial arts.

The Ghost Suit can withstand pistol and rifle fire and stabilizes her intangibility and invisibility.

She is not 100% loyal to Gorgon."

Sure enough, this was Ghost!

A part of S.H.I.E.L.D. was outsourced to the Military and did not have direct jurisdiction.

Ghost belonged to this department and was a carefully trained assassin.

Invisibility combined with intangibility ignored most physical attacks, allowing her to carry out many impossible missions.

"I have a way to stabilize your condition; if you trust me, I can help you.

They are just using you, just like they used me."

Hearing this, Ghost stopped, seemingly considering something.

"Why should I trust you?"

"Because I am Captain America!"

Steve looked at her seriously, then suddenly turned and threw his shield, knocking away a sneaking bodyguard.

Ghost was silent for a moment; under the influence of the 'goodwill halo,' she chose to temporarily trust him.

"I'll give you three days."

Steve flicked his right hand in the air, conjuring a business card and handing it over.

"Call me tomorrow, and I'll talk to you in detail."

"Alright."

Ghost took the business card and turned to leave; the solid wall could not stop her.

The scene was still chaotic, and outside, the Guard was already approaching with Rocket launchers.

"Everyone, leave the building, get out first, then go back, get your gear, and stand by."

Steve glanced at the Guard outside and walked out of the Capitol Building under the live broadcast of cameras.

The squad commander saw Steve emerge and immediately ordered his subordinates to prepare to act.

"Steve, you attempted to assassinate a senator, an unforgivable crime, and by the charge of treason, you are to be executed on the spot!"

"You want to twist black and white with just your words?

Those who don't want to die, get out of the way! I'm going to eliminate the Nazis, and even if the whole World stands in my way, I will make you move aside!"

In the live broadcast, Steve's rebuke was still righteous.

Many people didn't believe Steve would rebel; under the guise of justice, they only felt this was a struggle against the powerful and wealthy who had been corrupted and infiltrated by the Nazis!

"Go, Captain!"

"I will always support Captain! Just for the truth he revealed, I will support him!"

"Oh my god, I checked, and it's true that millions of people are fraudulently claiming pensions!"

"My Grandpa passed away ten years ago, and he's collecting a pension? How do I not know about this?"

Lies don't hurt people, but the truth is a sharp knife!

Gorgon wanted to act against Captain America, and Captain America also wanted to ruin his reputation.

"Fire!"

Whoosh!

Rocket launchers fired in unison!

Steve found the right angle, threw his shield, and it ricocheted, exploding five Rockets.

Then he reached out, caught a Rocket, and hurled it back with force.

Boom!

The Guard was immediately thrown into disarray by the explosion.

Under the camera's broadcast, the audience only saw Captain America charging into them like a tiger into a flock of sheep.

Every punch and kick sent people flying, and the Guards who landed were already bleeding from all seven orifices, lifeless!

He no longer held back, every move was fatal.

The police cars blocking the way were also kicked away; at this moment, Captain America perfectly demonstrated what a Super Soldier was!

These scenes were comparable to a Hollywood blockbuster, leaving everyone incredibly excited!

This is Captain America!

General Ross was escorted into an armored vehicle, watching his son-in-law display such divine power; was this the true Super Soldier?

"General, the Department of Defense demands that we kill Captain America."

His secretary reported, her expression incredulous.

"Restrict the special forces to assist at 37th Street; we will not get involved in this matter."

As an old hand, he immediately knew how deep the Water was here.

This son-in-law had stirred up a hornet's nest!

According to his revelations about the pensions and the Nazi HYDRA infiltration of the Military, this was a death sentence for them!

No wonder those people in the Military were so frantic.

If Captain America didn't die, they would!

At the crucial moment, all firearms and grenade launchers automatically floated into the air.

Polaris came to Captain America's side, her hands glowing green.

Da da da! Boom!

The firearms automatically opened fire, once again suppressing the arriving Guard, using their own weapons to keep them from raising their heads.

"Lorna, you shouldn't put yourself in danger."

Steve frowned; Mutants appearing in public was not a good thing.

Wait!

In public?

He seemed to have a brilliant idea!

So he immediately contacted Hill and told her his idea.

At this time, Hill had already retreated to a safe location and was preparing to return to S.H.I.E.L.D. Headquarters to command.

"You saved me, so I must save you too."

Polaris's reason was simple: either life for a life, or herself for him.

"Fool, I won't die, I'm worried about you.

Sigh, leave the rest to me; I said I would protect you, and I will.

From now on, stay by my side, be my girlfriend."

Steve was a bit helpless; this unauthorized action was touching. Given the circumstances, facing a devoted woman, could he really scold her?

Polaris smiled brightly, and the wildness in her eyes softened with tenderness.

"Okay, even if the whole World doesn't understand you, I will stand by your side and support you."

Polaris finished, blushing a little, her ears burning; this counted as a confession, right?

"Haha, good, you're mine for life."

Steve jumped onto a fire truck and took the megaphone.

"I am Steve Rogers, Captain America.

You've heard a lot about me recently, and some of you were ordered to apprehend me.

Now you should know the truth; the World has changed.

Nazi HYDRA has infiltrated Congress, the Military, the FBI, the CIA, and S.H.I.E.L.D. Gorgon Samanto is their leader.

The Senate, all officers and soldiers of the Navy Second Fleet, the Air Force Second Group, and the WashingtonCity Guard are also involved.

I don't know how many of them there are. Nor do I know who else they are.

But they are here; to cover up evidence of infiltration and corruption, they did not hesitate to hire pirates to hijack cargo ships.

They sent loyal special forces to rescue them, only to eliminate them.

The matter is not over yet; if today you believe Gorgonand their one-sided story.

Nazi HYDRA will be able to kill anyone who stands in their way and take over the entire United States.

Unless we stop them, I know it's difficult!

But the price of freedom is high, it always has been!

I am willing to pay that price, and if I am the only one, then so be it.

But I believe I won't be the only one!"

Steve finished speaking, threw away the megaphone, picked up his shield, and looked around at the citizens and the National Guard.

At this moment, the HYDRA personnel of Gorgon's faction were somewhat flustered!

They didn't expect Steve to reveal what they had done, and how deeply they had infiltrated.

Once the upper echelons were cleared out, wouldn't the vacant positions be for those below to rise?

A surge of hot blood flowed through their veins.

"I believe in Captain America!"

Polaris was the first to step forward; she had said that no matter how great the obstacles ahead.

Even if it was the whole World, she would stand by Steve's side without hesitation; at this moment, she fell in love with this man who was willing to oppose the World for justice!

Heroes should not be alone!

"I also support Captain America!"

Punisher also followed closely.

"I support Captain America!"

Blade stepped forward, the speech stirring his heart. Captain might be a bit of a playboy, but his values were absolutely sound!

"Support Captain America!"

"Down with the Nazis!"

Watching Captain America's call receive such a resounding response, Gorgon couldn't help but smash the television screen with his fist.

"Tell Manco and them to act immediately! Kill anyone who opposes, and make sure to control the Military!"

Hill and Sharon watched this scene, their hearts unable to calm for a long time.

The two exchanged glances and smiled at each other; this was their man, a man who stood tall and proud!

Either don't do it, or do it with a bang!

Hill placed one hand on her lower abdomen, her eyes filled with extreme tenderness.

"Little one, your father is truly an incredible hero."

Sharon was also pregnant, and she was very proud.

"Aunt Peggy had such good taste; my child, you must be like your father someday!"

"Sharon, I think Steve's plan just now was quite good.

We also have the X-Project experimental videos and data; how about we release those too?"

Hill's eyes flickered; she had always been loyal to the United States.

But women are fickle, especially after falling in love and having children.

She would absolutely not allow her child's father to become a criminal, a universally reviled wanted man.

This is how the World is; everyone must strive to improve their status, not to be superior and bully others.

But to gain due fairness when facing problems, otherwise, one truly feels powerless.

Chapter 112 The wives also support Steve

Okay, I think we can also contact Valentina. Doesn't she want to become the Director of the CIA?

This is her time to bet. If she tries to play dirty, we can just take her out too!"

Sharon's beautiful eyes flashed with ruthlessness. Don't doubt her cunning and ability.

As Peggy Carter's niece, she had studied by Peggy's side since childhood, and was more than familiar with schemes and tricks!

"You contact her, and I'll contact Magneto. As a victim of the special case, he must have other Mutant contacts.

This time, we might even be able to form a new team to work for us legally and legitimately, and they must also be under our control!"

"Alright, let's split up."

After Sharon finished speaking, she picked up the phone and started making calls. For her man's career, she would certainly not slack off.

Fury at S.H.I.E.L.D. Headquarters was also suspicious when he saw the message.

It's impossible for S.H.I.E.L.D. not to have moles from other forces. Which intelligence organization doesn't have moles from other forces?

The FBI has them, the CIA has them, and the KGB has them!

Only moldy, outdated forces are ignored. If they're already in the grave, why pay attention?

Paying attention to when the feast is served is more like it!

"It seems I also need to thoroughly investigate the moles. Haha, HYDRA, you're really deeply hidden!"

One stone stirred up a thousand waves. Captain America's television speech set the entire United Statesablaze.

Trying to act like an ostrich, burying one's head in the sand and pretending not to know anything to muddle through, is no longer possible.

This storm swept across the entire United States, and the upper-class elites were all in danger.

The things Captain America revealed this time would truly cause an earthquake of magnitude ten.

Especially the low-level taxi soldiers; some even had to pay out of their own pockets to join the army.

After serving overseas, only a few who were injured, sacrificed, or retired received subsidies; most were forgotten.

But now, some people are constantly receiving pensions and subsidies. What does this mean?

Either the system has collapsed and debts cannot be cleared, or someone has been milking the democratic beacon dry!

Public resentment is certainly boiling. At this point, whether or not to assassinate Captain America is no longer so important.

These are minor issues; the major issue is the division of classes.

Think about those taxi soldiers who served in the U.S. military, who, after being injured, received no pensions and no job placements.

They acquired special skills and abilities, and then learned that the United States wasn't without money; it was all being given to old men who were one or two hundred years old.

That is, the subsidies were given to soldiers, but only soldiers from the Civil War era.

Then anyone would get angry!

Roxanne received a call from her boss, Heidi, and also an email, instructing them to use the talking points inside to ignite public opinion.

After the meeting, even Jameson, the loyal but unscrupulous businessman, felt his eyelids twitch and his scalp tingle upon seeing it.

This was a direct attack on the elite class!

Journalists are the uncrowned kings, true, but in most cases, public opinion is controlled.

The morals of the common people can be condemned, and disasters can be reported.

But the scandals of the upper-class elites cannot be reported at all, otherwise, the iron fist of capitalism will show you what democracy means.

"President, are you sure we want to do this?"

"They're slandering Captain America, sucking the blood of taxpayers. Why should we let them off? What, Jameson, are you scared?"

Roxanne was a woman who knew Captain America's ins and outs; her spiritual channel had been traversed countless times. Would she betray her man?

Clearly not!

Upon hearing this, Jameson first fell silent, then let out his characteristic unscrupulous businessman's laugh.

"Hahaha! When Green Goblin was threatening me with his hands around my throat, I wasn't afraid and didn't betray Peter.

Captain America even saved my son and daughter-in-law, so how could I be a coward who fears death! I'll be the host this time!"

"Jameson is still very capable; I admire him for that."

Brandt, the administrative manager, chimed in. She used to be Jameson's assistant and knew his character.

Stingy, greedy, cunning, seemingly Spider-Man's number one hater.

But when faced with injustice, he could still maintain his bottom line and morality, which was already very rare.

"Good, you go back and polish this manuscript. You'll be the host for tonight's show. Whatever you need, I'll approve it.

There's only one request: protect yourself after work.

Captain America won't face the Nazis alone; we're behind him!"

Roxanne felt a pang of sadness recalling Steve's speech outside the Capitol Building, facing the elite class and Nazi Terrorists alone.

She wished she could hold him in her arms and protect him, letting him feel her love.

--

In the evening, citizens returning home after work learned about this major event through casual chats with neighbors and friends.

Horn Daily TV station.

Jameson, in a formal suit, sat upright with a solemn expression.

"Welcome to Horn Daily Evening News. I'm your host, Jameson.

Today, Captain America reported shocking news: our government departments have been infiltrated by Nazis.

The vast United States actually has sixty million people on the payroll for doing nothing! This is truly outrageous!"

One sentence ignited the entire audience. What they thought would be a mundane news channel turned out to be a huge exposé from the very beginning!

Other TV stations dared not report this matter, only selectively reporting that Captain America fought fiercely with the guards at the Capitol Building, killing many guards!

"Oh my god, I've watched so many TV stations, and only Horn Daily dares to report this! So brave!"

"Just for this bravery, my whole family will subscribe to Horn Daily's newspaper from now on!"

"I didn't expect Jameson to be so tough either. Is this still that unscrupulous businessman?"

The news department manager excitedly winked at Jameson, giving him good news.

"Ratings are up three percentage points!"

This made Jameson even more motivated. Although the newspaper had been sold, he still treated it as his own career.

Grow bigger and stronger, create new glory—he also gets a share of the profits!

"We received a clarification from an anonymous employee of the Social Security Department. Let's see what he says.

He says not everyone who joins the Social Security database is receiving Social Security!

The Social Security number is a unified identification. Foreign students studying in the United States, working part-time, can apply for a Social Security number.

This way, they can have a certain tax exemption at the end of the year.

These foreign students may not be in the United Stateslater, but the department has not received information about their deaths, so their Social Security numbers remain.

This doesn't mean they are on the payroll for doing nothing!

Oh, this explanation is very professional; it's clear they put a lot of thought into coming up with this excuse!"

The audience in front of their TVs started cursing. They weren't fools; how could they believe such a thing!

"Bullshit! My Grandpa died so many years ago, and I checked, he's still collecting Social Security and still voting in elections. Is this a joke?"

"Crap! We work hard all day, pay taxes according to the law, and the result is for these parasites!"

"Protest! We must have justice!"

Jameson watched the ratings climb steadily, and his characteristic sly smile began again.

"This reason, personally, I partially accept.

It can also explain why the total number of Social Security recipients in the United States far exceeds the number of living people nationwide.

But! You still can't explain why there are so many Social Security recipients over one hundred and fifty years old!

Including data released online, there are currently people over one hundred and fifty years old receiving Social Security!

Where are they? Where are they!

Has the number of centenarians in the entire United States really grown this much?

Oh my goodness, I think we are all very curious how these people survived. I want to live that long too!

Audience friends, aren't you curious?"

Golden phrases kept coming, directly hitting some people where it hurt.

Pelosi, the head of the Social Security Department, watched with a brain hemorrhage.

"Call the TV station and tell them to immediately, right now, stop broadcasting false news!"

"We called, Minister, but they won't listen!"

"Then send the Police to forcibly interrupt their news broadcast!"

Pelosi was also furious. Using the Police to interfere with a highly exposed news agency?

Once reported, those enforcing it would either die or go to jail; this was no joke.

"The Police Department said they're off work!"

"What?!"

Pelosi swayed, almost dying of a heart attack. She quickly took out several quick-acting heart pills and ate them, barely recovering her breath.

"Then have the power company cut off their power supply!"

"They have their own generators."

The secretary's messages were like direct retorts to her, and she immediately roared at the secretary.

"Is there nothing at all that we can control and restrain them with?"

"Yes, we manage their Social Security pensions!"

The secretary immediately replied.

Pelosi: ...

F*ck you, do you think you're funny?!

Eventually, she still kicked the secretary out.

She pulled out her phone and called her husband. She had to plug this loophole.

She wasn't the only one splitting the money; her family, and the intertwined network of dependencies, had many people on this boat!

It was time for them to contribute!

While she was still figuring things out, Jamesoncontinued his barrage of attacks.

"Actually, we've also thought of some talking points for the Social Security Department. See if this works.

You should say that the U.S. Social Security system was established relatively early, and back then, many records were paper files.

The migration to the internet was not perfect, and omissions were inevitable.

However, these are just minor difficulties brought about by the initial stages.

As for the little extra money spent for democracy, why do you always harp on these mistakes!

I just don't understand why whoever does more always suffers more grievances!

And so what if it's wrong?

Among these millions of one-hundred-and-fifty-year-old people, isn't there a single one still alive?

It's better to mistakenly pay out tens of billions than to miss a single person—that's democracy! That's the United States!

Back then, the entire state of Los Angeles had a power outage just to save a sparrow. Now, to prevent a centenarian's shack from being blown away by a strong wind.

If it's overpaid, just overpay a little. Look, there are quite a few one-hundred-and-fifty-year-olds, and so many two-hundred-year-olds.

Why be so harsh? Maybe they even voted for the President! Hahaha!

Pfft! Haha, I'm sorry, as a professional news person, no matter how funny something is, we will not laugh!

Unless we can't help it! Haha! I'm dying of laughter, ah haha!"

Initially, the audience in front of their TVs grew more and more irritated as they listened, but now, seeing Jameson laugh, they also started laughing.

In front of their TVs, and all over the internet, there was joyous laughter.

Smiles don't disappear; they merely transfer, from the faces of the former elites to the faces of the current common citizens!

Chapter 113: Lady Valentina Singing and Dancing

Horn Daily is in action, what is Captain America doing?

Gather his people and arrest all known members of the Gorgon faction. If he doesn't strike hard now, his opponent will retaliate fiercely once they recover.

CIA Director Leon also had a splitting headache. He had long since pledged allegiance to Gorgon, reaching his current position with the help of Gorgon's intelligence.

Gorgon also relied on U.S. hegemony and the CIA's global enforcement to constantly accumulate wealth and talent.

Without the support of a violent organization, he would not have been able to establish himself in HYDRA.

Now is the time to cut off his right-hand man. Without the CIA's support, he would become a violent organization unable to act externally.

As for the Military's support, the Military was also in a state of chaos at this time.

The issue of soldiers' and retired veterans' allowances was exposed, with funds being embezzled.

Generals lived in Villas, drove luxury cars, and their children indulged in lavish lifestyles.

Lower-ranking soldiers didn't even receive allowances, and after being disabled, they would be abandoned by their families due to lack of money.

No one was willing to take care of a burden.

A twenty-year-old soldier who lost both arms could only receive an allowance of five thousand U.S. dollars. Could these five thousand dollars support him into old age?

Clearly not!

It was the dissatisfaction and unrest among the lower-ranking soldiers that, if not appeased, could easily lead to a mutiny.

A decline in U.S. Military combat effectiveness would lead to a decline in global influence. How then would the Generals make money?

All of this was Captain America's fault! If it weren't for the information he released circulating on the internet, impossible to delete, how would it have escalated to this point?

Without the CIA, and without Military support.

Gorgon never expected that his plan targeting S.H.I.E.L.D., using Captain America as a breakthrough, would turn into his own grave!

"Boss, what should we do now?"

Mankoff looked incredibly panicked. Captain Americawas currently leading a special forces team, arresting people everywhere.

Even if they resisted and killed innocent passersby, it would be attributed to them.

This was a fight to the death, no quarter given.

Gorgon was furious, but he forced himself to calm down. He glanced at his panicking subordinate and couldn't help but snort.

"What's there to panic about! I'm not dead yet!"

He picked up the phone and dialed. It was answered quickly.

"Sir, I've been waiting for your call. X-Squad is ready to deploy at any moment."

"Send them to assassinate Steve. If you fail, I'll twist your head off!"

"Yes, Sir!"

Stryker stood at attention and saluted with the phone. He had no way out.

He had previously used all his precious Adamantium to create Wolverine, but Wolverine escaped!

He couldn't be caught. If Stryker didn't want to die, he had to do everything possible to make amends for his mistakes.

After ending the call, Stryker personally led the X-Squad to assassinate Steve, though the official order given to his subordinates was merely to suppress the riot.

In the ancient Villa.

Nissa looked at her sister, Danica, who had been captured by her brother, Chad Nomak. Her disheveled and embarrassed appearance showed no trace of the DuPont Family lady's arrogance; she looked more like a defeated and disheartened individual.

"I never thought Chad Nomak would actually work for you. Haha, can you cure him?"

Danica tucked her messy bangs behind her ear, pulled a lady's cigarette from the table, and tried to maintain her elegance as much as possible.

"What is your relationship with Gorgon? If you can provide evidence of his crimes, I can ask Steve not to kill you."

Nissa stopped pretending. She had been pursuing Danica for a while. This sister had framed her man repeatedly, and Nissa couldn't tolerate it!

Especially with Steve's child in her womb, she would not allow anyone to harm Steve.

Did they want her to become a widow? Did they want her unborn child to be fatherless?

Whoever dared to do such a thing, she would use all her family's wealth to kill them!

Chad Nomak had already retreated. He would silently protect his sister, the true Vampire Queen, from the shadows!

Danica seemed to want to laugh. She didn't know how to describe it.

Everything she meticulously planned was foiled by Captain America's indifference and inaction.

Her last attempt, a combination of overt and covert schemes, was brutally countered by him, using his own methods against him!

"Steve is truly amazing. I admit I lost.

I have all of Gorgon's dirt and criminal evidence, but why should I give it to you? What can you give me, my sister?"

Negotiating is always possible. As long as there's an exchange of benefits, a deal can be struck until both sides are satisfied.

"I can guarantee your life!"

Nissa frowned slightly. She had no time to waste. The sooner she got the evidence, the sooner Steve could secure victory.

"He cured your weakness, didn't he?"

Danica suddenly asked an irrelevant question.

The next second, Nissa grabbed her by the neck and lifted her. Her legs flailed in the air, and she was gasping for breath. Sister!

This was a secret. Only Nissa and Wei Lian had enjoyed the Serum enhancement.

From then on, they no longer feared sunlight. Not only could they appear openly in the sun, but they could also sunbathe.

If Steve hadn't been responsible, Wei Lian, as a concubine, wouldn't have been so lucky to be enhanced with them.

The benefits were also obvious. Wei Lian was completely devoted to Steve and respectful to Nissa.

During this time, she had also taken on many tasks, allowing Nissa to rest and carry her pregnancy in peace.

This secret could not be told to anyone. Once known, other Vampires would go mad!

Jealousy was the original sin. They would go to any lengths to obtain this benefit!

Danica pointed to her flushed cheeks, spreading her hands to indicate she meant no harm.

Bang!

Falling to the ground, Danica gasped for air. In that moment, she felt as if she had seen the God of Deathbeckoning her soul.

Her cleavage rose and fell erratically, a turbulent sight.

"Give me a reason not to kill you!"

Nissa's high heel was pressed against Danica's neck. A slight push would pierce her throat, killing her instantly!

"I can sign a Blood Slave contract. I can serve you for life, as long as you help me immunize against the weakness of sunlight."

Danica dropped a bombshell. A Blood Slave was a slave contract, signed by high-ranking Vampires with lower-ranking ones.

If the oath was broken, or if the Master was displeased, they could activate the contract to execute the slave.

Few people were willing to sign such a contract unless they truly intended to exchange their freedom for benefits.

A dying person, with no hope of survival, might sign. But ordinary people, without such a desperate need, wouldn't.

However, every branch of high-ranking Vampires would have one or two Blood Slaves; some even had enough to form a guard.

"My actions against Steve were also for my father's inherited fortune. I admit I was greedy for money.

Gorgon and I are partners. He lost his male function after taking an unstable Super Soldier Serum.

I have videos and incriminating evidence of him threatening the Senate President and several Generals from the Department of Defense. I can hand them all over."

Danica spilled everything. Possessions could be re-earned, but if life was lost, then nothing remained.

Without experiencing centuries of living in darkness, one wouldn't understand how much she longed to live in the sunlight.

Being a Vampire was not a blessing; sometimes, it was more like a curse!

"Chad Nomak, take her to retrieve all the items. If she's not back before dawn, then let her die outside."

Nissa kicked Danica away, sending her crashing more than ten meters away.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Chad Nomak emerged from the shadows, kneeling before Nissa.

Nissa might treat him as a brother, but he couldn't be ungrateful. A subject was a subject; hierarchy could not be disturbed.

--

In the dark night, various forces were in motion.

This was a grand feast, a feast for dividing profits and reshuffling power.

Should one bet on Captain America, or on Gorgon?

The winner takes all; the loser gets nothing!

Valentina was also in action. She desperately wanted to advance, and for that, she would give anything.

After receiving Sharon's call and learning that DirectorLeon was to be dealt with, she didn't hesitate for a moment and immediately agreed.

Dealing with Leon wasn't that simple. He couldn't be killed directly, but he could be arrested first.

The evidence was there, but she still needed to appear as a witness.

The CIA Director enjoyed immense prestige and power, commanding great influence.

But what was the cost?

Naturally, enemies were everywhere!

What Valentina needed to do was to get Leon's confidants to testify against him and to contact his enemies. She believed these people would be very happy to testify and nail Leon to the pillar of shame.

The CIA also needed to be taken over. In short, Valentina was very busy.

First, take over the CIA, at least to prevent any obstacles from being placed in Captain America's way at this time.

"Ghost, Antonia, you follow orders and make the arrests. After today, the CIA will be ours, and I will fulfill my promises to you.

Go, fight for our cause!"

Watching the two leave, Valentina was in a great mood, humming softly.

Ghost, trained by Gorgon, was her person?

Antonia (Taskmaster, from the Black Widow movie), a Soviet-era Agent, was also her person?

Hiss!

CIA, S.H.I.E.L.D., Red Room, HYDRA!

The known factions she was involved with were no less than four. How many more were there unknown?

Truly a bottomless woman! Wonder if Steve could reach the bottom?

Censor: You're making suggestive remarks again, aren't you!

Walking to the French window, she watched the fires erupting across the city. Which team was clashing now!

Her phone vibrated. She picked it up to check; it was a text message.

After thinking for a moment, Valentina picked up her phone and dialed.

It was the White Queen. She was in her Villa, watching TV, a burning lady's cigarette held between her fingers.

A maid was applying clear nail polish to her delicate feet. She didn't like overly bright colors, finding them to be a sign of a promiscuous woman.

Waving her hand, the maid bowed and left.

"It's me."

"Military Colonel Stryker is leading a Mutant squad to assassinate Captain. Do you want to help out?"

"What is their configuration?"

The White Queen pondered for a moment, deciding to take the risk.

She didn't dislike Steve; in fact, she had a considerable amount of goodwill towards him.

Secondly, she had a good impression of Steve, especially after another metal-controlling Mutantappeared by his side, making her consider him one of her own.

Third, she needed to seek benefits and a fallback for herself. At least Steve's attitude towards Mutants was very good.

Even if there were conflicts in the future, given Steve's character, he would still protect her.

The reshuffling of power would inevitably lead to a reshuffling in business. If the Masters were gone, wouldn't the 'white gloves' just be waiting to be swallowed up?

"A Phantom who can teleport short distances,

A behemoth whose flesh can withstand main tank cannon fire,

A Sabretooth with regenerative healing,

A marksman who never misses.

And one who can control electricity, plus a well-equipped elite squad, a total of thirty people."

Valentina listed them off like a treasure trove, seemingly possessing all information. This capability made even S.H.I.E.L.D. feel inferior!

Chapter 114: Okay, okay, you're playing double standards, right?

After the Horn Daily news concluded, instead of going to commercials, the already filmed movie, "Captain America 1: The First Avenger," began to play.

There was no warning; it was supposed to be released in theaters, but now it was being broadcast on television?

This meant there would be no box office revenue!

But Steve didn't care about the box office; he cared about his reputation and support rate.

As long as most people supported him, and with a fan effect, then opening commercial avenues would actually bring more economic benefits.

He didn't need to be involved in Hollywood and the film industry, so he naturally didn't need box office revenue.

Compared to this small amount of money, the benefits brought by fame were far greater.

"Oh my god! It's Captain's personal biographical film! No, I have to call my girlfriend to watch it with me!"

"Hey, buddy, what are you doing? Bar hopping? Screw that! Come on over and get hyped! Captain's new movie is on!"

"Darling, Captain's movie is playing on Horn TV. Why don't we watch it at my place? My Simmons mattress is big and comfortable!"

The movie opened with a scene of Nazis massacring a small town, showing the villain Red Skull searching for the so-called Tesseract.

Cold, meticulous, and with the strength to push open a manhole cover that three soldiers couldn't budge together, his power was displayed very directly.

A Super Soldier! This was definitely a Super Soldier!

Especially the shot where his skin seemed to be peeling off at the end, which was a bit unsettling and intriguing.

"Is this Red Skull?"

"Holy cow, he's so strong!"

The next scene showed Steve participating in multiple military enlistment physicals, being rejected without exception.

The medical records were filled with dense lists of ailments, making people's scalps tingle.

"Oh! Captain was actually so frail and sickly before!"

"Exactly! Look how cute Captain is, I just want to pick him up and protect him!"

"Get lost! Captain is mine!"

Next, in the movie theater, a war documentary promoting patriotic education was playing on the screen.

A very annoying man was yelling about wanting to see beautiful women dance, and the surrounding audience, seeing his burly physique, were afraid to stop him.

Only Captain America reprimanded him, and as a result, he was dragged into an alley and beaten.

The camera focused on Captain America picking up a trash can lid as a shield.

"I can do this all day!"

The audience in front of their televisions were ecstatic!

This scene was very close to Captain America's image holding a shield, though he was still very thin, one could already see his unyielding spirit of resistance.

His friend Bucky came to the rescue, explaining that he was going to report to the battlefield and would go to the Stark exhibition later.

Watching Howard appear and interact intimately with the host, the audience smiled knowingly.

In reality, wasn't his son Tony also a well-known playboy?

Tony was watching the movie with Coulson in his Villa, and when his father appeared, he was exactly the same.

"How did Captain do it? I mean, my father's appearance in the movie."

"It was synthesized using computer technology. Captainsaid you gave him an artificial intelligence chip, and that's how it was made."

Coulson was in a good mood; his mission was to supervise Tony until he developed a new element.

In this movie, he also had a role, playing Colonel Phillips.

Watching Captain America in the movie offer popcorn to try and chat up the two beautiful women Buckybrought, only to be rejected.

Especially the disdainful look from the beautiful woman, who didn't think much of Captain America's current slender build, it was incredibly vivid.

This scene also made the true fans explode!

Some said she had good acting, others said she didn't know what was good for her! How dare she reject Captain!

Tony laughed, 'Old man, you're getting yours today!'

"I think Captain was very flirtatious from the start!"

"That's called being dashing! How can Captain's actions be called flirtatious? You're the flirtatious one!"

Coulson argued passionately, not tolerating any slander against his idol.

Tony was speechless for a moment. 'Alright, alright, playing favorites, are we?'

If it weren't for the taser in Coulson's hand, he thought about it and still suppressed the urge to retort.

Next, Captain, by chance, saw a recruitment advertisement at the exhibition and went to enlist again.

Thereupon, he met Dr. Abraham, who was out for a stroll, and saw Captain try five different identities, enlisting five times.

After some conversation, the Dr., seeing Captain's pure and kind nature, gave him a chance.

Peggy, played by Sharon, appeared in the military camp, immediately attracting everyone's attention.

"Is this Captain's first love? So beautiful!"

"I saw her at the hearing today, she's really beautiful!"

"Brothers, enough talk, I'm getting hyped!"

Tony looked at Coulson, who played Colonel Phillips, with a strange expression.

"Captain didn't invite me for a cameo!"

Coulson was in a great mood, making a rare humorous remark.

"Correction, this isn't a cameo for me, I'm a formal cast member!"

F***!

You're getting carried away!

Tony closed his eyes, not wanting to watch, but couldn't help himself because his father was in the movie.

So far, it aligned with his impression and was worth watching.

After a long run, the soldiers participating in the training were all exhausted. The adjutant pointed to a flag and said.

"This flag means you've only run halfway. The first person to get the flag can ride back with Agent Carter!"

The camera focused on Sharon, biting a pencil, her intelligent and capable aura paired with the military uniform, was very captivating.

Everyone rushed forward, pulling and tugging at each other.

Just as someone managed to climb up a bit, they were quickly pulled down again.

"In seventeen years, no one has ever gotten this flag. Come on, girls!"

Using 'girls' to describe these soldiers was a form of teasing; only through hard training could they become true soldiers.

A few minutes later, they were still struggling on the ground, and the adjutant coach said helplessly.

"Alright, go back, fall in, attention!"

The soldiers returned reluctantly; who wouldn't want to ride back with the beautiful Peggy?

Everyone fell in, only Captain America walked, panting, to the flagpole.

The coach was very annoyed; he was already displeased with the weak physique of the other party, and now he dared to be a troublemaker?

"Steve! I said fall in! Obey orders!"

Captain America didn't stop, but instead observed the flagpole's structure, then proceeded to open the fixing clips and pull out the bolt.

Bang!

The flagpole fell with a crash!

The soldiers and the coach were all silent, only Peggywas secretly smiling, her suppressed laughter having a unique charm.

Captain America went over, took down the flag, and walked over to hand it to the coach.

"Thank you, Officer."

With that, Captain America got into the jeep.

The coach looked at the flag in his hand, then looked up at Captain America, his entire mind unable to process what had just happened.

The soldiers were also speechless. 'That's it?' They hadn't thought of that!

The audience in front of their televisions burst into laughter!

They had been angry when they saw Captain Americabeing bullied during training, but now they felt vindicated.

"Haha, Captain is so smart!"

"Exactly! Look at that adjutant coach, he's completely dumbfounded!"

"I can't take it, I'm dying of laughter, Captain is so funny!"

The next scene arrived at a classic moment.

Phillips was dissatisfied with the Dr.'s choice of Captain America as the experimental subject, but the existing materials only allowed for one person to be experimented on.

"You wouldn't be unaware of how much effort we've put into this project, would you?

I also have to deal with those committee senators, begging for cooperation in a humble manner."

"Yes, I know how much effort you've put in."

"Then give me a return quickly! Hodge is the strongest among them, having passed all tests.

He's fast, strong, and an obedient soldier."

The Dr. shook his head, dissatisfied.

"He's a bully!"

He was clearly referring to Hodge's bullying of Captain America during training.

"You can't win wars with kindness, Dr.!"

So they came to the training ground, where a non-explosive grenade was seemingly thrown.

"War depends on courage!"

"Grenade!"

The others immediately jumped out, scrambling away.

Only Captain America directly pounced, covering the grenade with his body, while shouting loudly.

"Run! Don't come closer!"

Peggy also stepped forward a few paces; if Captain America hadn't pounced, she would have.

At this moment, her gaze towards Steve changed.

From initial admiration, it transformed into an indescribable emotion.

"Oh my god! Captain is so handsome! So cool! He truly is my idol!"

"It seems Agent Carter was also preparing to pounce!"

"Wuwu, my Captain, I want to have your babies!"

"Brother upstairs, if I'm not mistaken, you seem to be a man!"

The movie continued, next showing how Captain America transformed from a frail man into a strong Super Soldier.

At this point, everyone thought it was time for a massacre.

The plot slapped them hard in the face!

The request to participate in the war was rejected, on the grounds that one Super Soldier could not turn the tide of the war.

Poor Captain America could only help the senators sell bonds, touring various places to perform and demonstrate his value.

It must be said, the dancers in high heels and long stockings were indeed eye-catching.

But this development also left the audience feeling frustrated and aggrieved!

They had to vent!

Until Captain America was humiliated performing at a military camp, and his friend Bucky was captured.

And the Allied forces, citing the long distance and fierce enemy offensive, refused to send rescue troops.

At this moment, he decided to go on a solo rescue mission, and with the help of Peggy and Howard, he entered the Nazi camp alone and went on a rampage!

The battle was exhilarating, showcasing the full power of a Super Soldier.

It featured the American-favorite individualism heroics, close-quarters combat with powerful punches, and various cool shield-throwing moves.

It completely thrilled the audience!

Only Tony was in deep thought; he seemed to have gained a new understanding of his father.

All of this was thanks to Captain America's movie; his previous incomprehension was now no longer so troubling.

It was not a coincidence.

Valentina was also watching the movie; she didn't need to be busy everywhere, only needing to give orders.

A typical example of a superior who manages people well, using the right people to do the right things, which makes everything seem very easy!

Chapter 115 Wolverine: Even with all his might, he can't win

Using a personal movie to boost his prestige, while also educating everyone about HYDRA's infiltration capabilities.

If even the Nazis could be infiltrated, then HYDRA's infiltration of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Congress is considered perfectly reasonable by everyone!"

Valentina blew a smoke ring, then picked up her wine glass and took a sip of red wine.

Critiquing Captain America's actions as an outsider, this immediate release of the movie was truly a brilliant move!

It increased his credibility and struck a blow to Gorgon's authority; now, no matter how he explains it, he's speechless.

Sometimes the truth isn't important; whether people believe it, that's what's most important!

The movie ended with him frozen in ice.

The film seemed to conclude there.

But after the cast list, there was a short post-credits scene!

Captain America woke from being frozen, knocked out two burly guards, and escaped the room.

Outside was already a bustling metropolis, with flashing neon lights and large electronic screens.

Hill, playing the Director of S.H.I.E.L.D., appeared and had her people surround him.

"Are you alright, Captain?"

Captain America shook his head, his eyes filled with a dazed disbelief as he looked at everything around him.

"I'm fine, I just missed a dance!"

Seeing this, even the strong-willed and ruthless Valentina was touched.

This scene, sacrificing personal happiness to save the World, only to wake up and find his loved ones and friends long gone.

He became a lonely man, a man from the past, which could maximize empathy and win him countless fans!

"What a calculation, Steve, you're amazing!

If you can take down Gorgon this time, I wouldn't mind working for you! Haha, it depends on your performance!"

Valentina had never shown any loyalty, not even to the President.

A woman who could navigate between major powers, constantly acquiring benefits and advantages to strengthen herself, was ten thousand times more dangerous than Black Widow!

After watching the movie, the audience's hearts were restless for a long time.

On the Daily Bugle website, many people began to leave comments and discussions below the movie.

Some even called to complain to the relevant departments, scolding them for what they were doing? Why did Nazi infiltration happen?

Combined with Captain America's previous revelations at the Capitol building, about the 200-year-old man collecting his pension.

Plus the constant incitement of war abroad over the past few decades, this was undoubtedly the result of Nazi infiltration!

Steve's personal prestige was rising without limit, and more and more people believed what he said.

--

Suburban Villa.

Steve led the special forces to apprehend members of Gorgon's faction. He didn't care about corruption issues; he was only targeting people, not problems.

As long as you were a core member of Gorgon's faction? Then sorry, I'm here to arrest you!

Using public office for private revenge, huh!

Yes, exactly, that's right!

"Captain, there's a situation ahead, it's Militarypersonnel."

Crossbones now looked at Captain America with immense admiration; this was their leader!

Steve also saw the dense red health bars in the distance, knowing at a glance that they were up to no good.

The leader was none other than Stryker!

"Captain, you have disrupted public duties, illegally arrested public officials, massacred innocent citizens, and leaked Military secrets. You will now be shot according to the law.

Don't blame me, I'm just following orders! Attack!"

Stryker greeted him, then waved his hand to send his Mutants forward.

He looked at the indifferent man next to him and advised him in the gentlest voice possible.

"Logan, none of this is my fault, I'm just following orders. If you help me kill Steve, I'll tell you who the mastermind is, how about it?"

"It's a deal!"

Wolverine looked up; he planned to kill Stryker along with the mastermind once he found them!

Swish!

Three Adamantium claws extended from each hand, and he quickly ran on all fours.

Steve told everyone to spread out and execute their combat mission as previously instructed.

No sooner had he finished speaking than ten assault rifle bullets flew towards his head, unswerving, aiming for a fatal shot to the head.

The next second, the rapidly flying bullets hovered in mid-air.

Polaris's pretty face curved into a disdainful smile, green light flickering in her hands.

Agent Zero was horrified to find his gun automatically flying up, its muzzle pointing at him and pulling the trigger.

Bang, bang, bang!

He immediately scrambled to dodge, but the metal storm of bullets still tore him to shreds!

Stryker's eyelids twitched at this sight. Not daring to delay, he subtly retreated a few steps, preparing to make a quick escape.

Assassination was work, but only by staying alive could he get promoted!

As for these Mutants, he didn't plan to bother with them.

Just now, in one encounter, one of them was counter-killed by the opponent, which was quite a blow to morale!

"Lorna, pin that steel-clawed man to the ground for me; he's useful to me."

Steve recognized him at a glance, isn't that Uncle Wolf?

This guy is truly long-lived, he must be around two hundred years old by now!

Calling him Uncle Wolf is not just flattery.

"Okay, Captain."

Polaris smiled slightly, that wild and charming smile made Steve's heart flutter a bit.

No, I must take her tonight!

The duck is at my mouth, not eating it would be struck by lightning!

Little did Polaris know that Steve had already thought of her children's names and was even thinking about how to playfully torment her.

One can only say she's blessed!

Not every man has two hours of stamina!

With his indestructible Adamantium, Wolverine easily dispatched the squad Stryker sent to pursue him.

A hundred years of combat experience, plus his enhanced body, he didn't even put Captain America in his eyes!

Bang!

The supremely confident Wolverine was pinned to the ground the next second, unable to get up. No matter how he struggled, he could only remain as if pressed under the Five Finger Mountain.

His metal claws were indeed incredibly sharp, cutting through iron like mud, but they might not necessarily pierce Captain America's shield.

If it weren't for Polaris, Steve would need to be careful when facing Wolverine.

Getting caught by his claws wouldn't just be a simple bleed; arms and calves would be cut off like tofu.

The margin for error was very low, so he needed to be cautious.

But when he met Polaris, Magneto's daughter.

Wolverine was like a mouse meeting a cat, completely suppressed!

An Adamantium skeleton is very sturdy and tough, right? No matter how sturdy, it's still metal, and if it's metal, it has to lie down!

Sabretooth's eyes nearly popped out when he saw this. What the hell! Is this scientific?

"Young man, don't get distracted during a fight!"

Immediately after, he flew out, having been kicked, feeling like his internal organs were about to spill out.

Even with Sabretooth's healing ability, it took him a few minutes to barely stand up.

It felt like being hit head-on by a heavy-duty truck, his head was dizzy.

"Be careful, the kid's a bit strange!"

But looking around, all his teammates were already dead!

A Rocket launcher hit a fat man over two meters tall squarely, and after the explosion, he reappeared unharmed, grinning foolishly at them.

Steve went forward and exchanged a few blows with him; even with two tons of force, it only caused ripples on his skin, unable to break his defense.

The thick layer of fat provided perfect defensive capabilities, seemingly absorbing most of the punch's power.

And his punch, striking the shield, had a force of nearly five hundred pounds.

Meat mountain? A defensive Mutant?

Steve scoffed disdainfully, gathering a large amount of internal energy in his fist.

He bent his waist and punched again.

Bang!

This time, the meat mountain's foolish grin immediately turned to terror, and the next second, he exploded!

"No!"

Shadow's ability was short-distance teleportation. He had just killed two special forces members, but due to a moment of distraction, Crossbones shot him in the head!

Only one Mutant, who could generate and control electricity out of thin air, remained on the scene.

Seeing his teammates brutally killed, fear gripped him, and he was about to turn and flee.

A steel knife pierced his heart, lifting him into the air.

A red tight-fitting jumpsuit with black patterns, paired with a white eye mask and dual swords.

The Merc with a Mouth, Deadpool!

"Hi, Captain, I'm Deadpool, and I'm here to help you."

"Alright, Wade."

Steve called him by his first name directly.

"Whoa, no, Captain, how do you know my name?!"

Deadpool dropped the Mutant, placed his hands on both sides of his face, making an exaggerated and classic surprised gesture.

"Stop messing around, let's talk properly after the mission. You and I can help each other."

Steve finished speaking and looked at the ordinary soldiers Stryker had brought in the distance, a cruel smile appearing on his handsome face.

"Those are Nazis, Wade, they're all yours."

A few minutes later.

Deadpool completely wiped out a twenty-man elite squad. He also had many bullet holes and several daggers embedded in him.

Immortality is truly powerful!

Trading injuries for injuries, trading injuries for lives, purely, simply, unreasonably!

Sabretooth had just stood up when Steve knocked him down with a punch.

"Logan, right? Nice to meet you. I'm going to find the person in charge of Project X. Interested in coming with me for revenge?"

Steve extended an invitation to Wolverine. These guys were all incredibly strong.

Strong recovery meant they could work at high intensity.

Is there anyone more suitable to be a workhorse than him?

If his subordinates aren't capable, how can a Captainslack off?

"Let me go, fight me, if you win, I'll listen to you!"

Wolverine was firmly pinned to the ground by Polaris's magnetic field, looking incredibly frustrated.

"Lorna, release him."

"Okay, Captain."

The moment Polaris released her control, Wolverinesuddenly lunged, his steel claws fiercely stabbing towards Captain America's head. He wanted to cut off the head of the guy who made him lose face!

Bang!

Wolverine also experienced the same kick-flight as his brother Sabretooth, crashing through the Villa wall.

The next second, before the dust had even settled, Wolverine charged out again.

In one encounter, he flew backwards again.

Time and time again, Wolverine's speed in getting up became slower and slower.

Until finally, he was knocked unconscious.

Steve's right foot pivoted on the ground for a moment, looking a bit speechless.

He had just used his strongest burst of power to hit Wolverine, but it was like kicking a steel plate!

The opponent wasn't dead, just unconscious.

The defensive power of Adamantium was truly terrifying!

However, thinking that this man could withstand the damage of an atomic bomb explosion, it suddenly seemed much more reasonable. (Wolverine 2)

"Get a bucket of Water, and splash him awake."

Polaris suppressed a smile; 'splash him awake' usually meant urinating, using a bucket should be called 'dousing him awake'!

Splash!

As a bucket of Water poured down, Wolverine opened his eyes, his head still a bit groggy.

"Logan, do you submit? If not, we'll go again!"

Steve's voice made Wolverine flinch, his head clearing instantly.

"I submit!"

Chapter 116 Polaris: I am also the captain's wife

After searching all night, Stryker's whereabouts were unknown, with some intelligence suggesting he had fled to Europe for refuge.

However, the consortium and Military personnel behind him couldn't escape; even generals would be arrested.

This coincided with General Ross's thoughts. The more positions that opened up, the easier it would be for him to rise.

Moreover, he could arrange for his subordinates to get promotions and make a fortune, benefiting everyone.

War isn't about fighting and killing; war is about human relations!

Deadpool and Wolverine were sent to rest in the special forces dormitory. After a night of slaughter, it was time for a break.

At the castle estate.

After Steve returned, he first took a shower, then pulled Polaris into the bedroom.

"My dear, how can I help you?"

Polaris blinked her large eyes, showing both innocence and cunning.

"I have a lot of Fire, and I need a physical way to cool down!"

"Then, shall I tie your shoelaces for you?"

Polaris squatted down.

--

An hour later, Steve sat in his study, looking at documents.

These were all the negative reports about Gorgon that Danica had brought back.

As a Vampire of several hundred years, she had collected a lot of compromising information on senators, some of whom were already deceased.

Gorgon's takeover of the HYDRA faction gave him significant influence in Congress; even the speakers of the Senate and House of Representatives were his pawns.

"Before, he only wanted to deal with S.H.I.E.L.D.? And he chose me as his target?"

After reading the documents, a flash of anger crossed Steve's eyes. What did he take him for?

"That's right. If he controlled S.H.I.E.L.D., and the Director of the CIA, Leon, was also his man, Gorgoncould interfere in global affairs. Coupled with the influence of the DuPont Family and Morgan Family in the Military, almost the entire United States would be under his control."

Danica knelt respectfully on the floor, even though kneeling in high heels was awkward.

But compared to the chance of evolution, let alone kneeling, she would even offer herself!

These documents detailed various incidents orchestrated by Gorgon, from instigating wars and purchasing defense weapons, down to ordering the CIA to engage in drug trafficking and smuggling.

The list was shocking; only illegal and criminal activities could generate money so quickly.

The criminal law clearly states that if you're not afraid of death, you can try it.

But for Gorgon, the law was less useful than a piece of toilet paper.

"You can still contact other TV stations and newspapers, right?

Make copies of these documents and give them to them to broadcast, no matter what method you use!

Is there any difficulty?"

It seemed like a question, but there was no real choice.

Danica shivered, lowered her head, and her voice, while alluring, carried a hint of flattery.

"No problem, Master. Is there anything else you need me to do?"

As expected of a Vampire who had lived for three hundred years, she knew how to pick up and put down.

Putting down face and self-respect, she picked up power and eternal life!

"Contact the senators and ministers you can reach, and have them publicly condemn Gorgon as a Nazi.

Tell the Police and the prosecutor's office to arrest him, and the Court of Justice also needs to expedite the process.

When Gorgon's reputation is ruined, I can let you live in the sunlight like Nissa!"

Steve reached over and pinched Danica's chin, lifting her head.

Her unadorned face was too pale, but her looks were excellent; as a maid, she was qualified!

As a leading lady? Are you drunk?!

"Yes, Master, I will immediately mobilize my connections to suppress Gorgon."

Danica's excitement was unconcealed; her body trembled violently.

She longed to be a normal person, to live in the sunlight, and not be a rat that died upon seeing the light!

If she could get a chance to improve her Vampirephysique, she would be willing to lose everything!

As Captain America, he would certainly not resort to blackmail. That was Hill's style, not his!

Early in the morning, the New York prosecutor's office first announced that it was indicting Gorgon on charges of espionage.

Then, other departments, seeing a trailblazer, followed suit, indicting Gorgon on various other charges.

Last night's operation had been watched by countless eyes. There were clearly corrupt officials in front of him, yet he turned a blind eye and a deaf ear.

He only targeted Gorgon's subordinates, which was clearly a personal vendetta.

Gorgon was furious but helpless. Even if he had someone complain about Captain America abusing his power for personal gain,

they could easily dismiss it due to insufficient evidence. It was clearly aimed at him!

Besides exposing his subordinates, there was no benefit.

Last night, the CIA had a change of personnel. DirectorLeon was exposed with a large amount of evidence of collusion with Gorgon, involving multiple terrorist attacks to help Gorgon eliminate political opponents.

As a result, Leon committed suicide out of guilt. Now, Deputy Director Valentina is in charge and is also investigating Gorgon.

High-ranking FBI officials were assassinated one after another, but the announcements stated they committed suicide out of guilt.

But why would someone commit suicide out of guilt and not spare their own family and children?

No one would think this was Steve's doing. Such an upright and brave man could never do such dirty things!

Overnight, with a thunderous strike, Gorgon, who had been operating for decades, was directly brought down!

What good were even the strongest connections? If the issue of pensions wasn't resolved, forget about votes.

They might even end up in prison, where all the big bosses are, and they talk so nicely, and they just love picking up soap there!

There were only two paths before them: either seize the opportunity to betray Gorgon and make a deal with S.H.I.E.L.D. to keep their positions,

or be buried with Gorgon. How would they choose?

Even with their toes, they'd know to choose to deal with S.H.I.E.L.D.!

If Gorgon truly had a backup plan, he shouldn't have allowed Captain America to arrest his subordinates last night, nor should he have done nothing.

Gorgon wanted to act, but his left and right arms were cut off from communication, and his dispatched men were hunted down by unknown individuals.

That's why he appeared to surrender without a fight. He did resist, but he couldn't, so he could only lie down and enjoy it.

"Steve, if you need my help, just call me directly. I even have a private jet that can take you abroad."

Tony's text message also arrived, but the content was somewhat amusing and frustrating.

Daredevil and Karen were also incredibly busy, entrusted by Steve to sue the members who attended yesterday's hearing.

They were suing them for defamation, slander, attempted murder, provoking trouble, and other charges. Each member was a genuine powerful figure.

This made Daredevil's scalp tingle. Wouldn't he offend a lot of people?

But as soon as he thought this was Captain America's request, Daredevil was instantly filled with fighting spirit.

That line, 'If I'm the only one, then it doesn't matter. But I believe I won't be the only one!'

It felt tragic and deeply respectful whenever he thought of it!

The timing, location, and human factors were all on Steve's side. What could Gorgon use to fight him?

"Matt, I've asked Jennifer to help. If we win this battle, our law firm will definitely become famous!"

Karen's tone was very excited. Aside from being Captain America's girlfriend, she was also a very ambitious woman.

"Preparing the materials is up to you two. I need to rest."

Matt had also been busy last night; Hell's Kitchen's nights were never peaceful.

Especially last night, with Nazis being arrested everywhere, some gangs couldn't help but stir.

Criminals that the law couldn't handle could certainly be taught a lesson with fists in private!

Who didn't have a superhero identity!

As one compromising revelation after another came out, they were shocking, and the most intolerable among them was Gorgon eating people!

How could this be a senator dedicated to public service? This was clearly a demon in human skin!

Protests also began to organize on the streets, with citizens and Captain America fans spontaneously protesting in front of the New York City Council building.

They demanded severe punishment for the perpetrators and a thorough investigation into the pension scandal!

The City Council members were all in a panic. They all had some compromising information, more or less; it just depended on whether it was investigated.

What was originally a small issue, with Captain America's involvement, became an insurmountable obstacle.

"That damned Steve!"

"Shh! Are you trying to get yourself killed, daring to curse the Captain at a time like this!"

"Heh heh, it's useless, I've already heard it. I'm going to S.H.I.E.L.D. to report it right now!"

Before they could unite, some had already started to betray their friends for personal gain.

Oh no, this should be called exposing evil and restoring a clear sky to the United States!

Washington's Pentagon was also extremely angry. This kind of thing was clearly a slap in their face!

They couldn't even refute it; Captain America stood on the moral high ground.

This scene was strikingly similar to when they held up laundry detergent and claimed other regions had weapons of mass destruction.

Frustrated, angry, and powerless!

After a brief discussion, the plan was now to push all the blame onto the disappeared Senator Gorgon and his cronies.

This was a good opportunity to replace a batch of people. The speaker stepping down was a good thing!

The old geezer steps down, and new scumbags can take over!

Outside, it was bustling, but the instigator, Steve, was hiding and nowhere to be seen.

The work was mostly done; it was time to slack off.

Now, he would let Hill and the others do their thing; women were more suited for this kind of work.

The bedroom door was pushed open.

Polaris walked out in a nightgown, her pale toes in crystal slippers, holding a phone in one hand.

"My dear, my father is looking for you."

Looking at Polaris, who was like a kitten in his arms, Steve picked up the phone.

"This is Steve."

"Steve, I received intelligence that my enemy has been hired to assassinate you.

Besides that, there's also a Mutant team, but I don't have information on them. You'd best be careful."

Magneto also had his own channels. To seek revenge on Black King Shaw, almost everything he did revolved around this goal.

"Alright, thank you. Is there anything else? Say it all at once."

Steve knew his cheap father-in-law would definitely have more to say. If he was truly just warning him, he could have told Polaris.

"I need a new identity, and also some money, one million in cash."

Magneto's voice carried a hint of shame. Even if it was his son-in-law on the other end, asking for money like this was very undignified.

"I'll send someone to give it to you tomorrow. Name a location."

It was no big deal. Steve was indifferent. He wasn't interested in Black King Shaw, nor did he feel threatened.

Chapter 117 North Star: Stay Away from My Husband

Just give this matter to Nissa and let her handle it.

During the day, continue to relentlessly tarnish Gorgon's reputation, and at night, send people to continue assassinating Gorgon's subordinates.

Most of those killed last night were from the council; tonight, it's about eliminating Gorgon's underground proxies.

Without the support of underground gangs, he absolutely cannot distribute flour. Earning money this way, he's not afraid of his son being born without an anus!

Oh, Gorgon seems to be a eunuch, so never mind!

Huangshulang Bar.

This is a bar opened by Deadpool's good friend, a hub for intelligence and a place for mercenary commissions.

Steve arrived at the bar and immediately noticed the interesting tasks posted.

Beating up immoral elders, disciplining bratty kids, helping to buy flowers, helping with this and that.

There was a wide variety of everything.

This is a task board for show; who would be foolish enough to put mercenary tasks in a bar?

Looking at the information prompt, even the system was complaining.

The bar closed early today, just to receive Captain America.

You must be Captain America! It's a pleasure to meet you, I'm a big fan! My name is Weasel!

The sloppy man in glasses excitedly shook Steve's hand. Who wouldn't admire such a hyper-masculine superhero?

Hello, I heard Wade say that you are his best friend.

Wait, Captain, I didn't say anything at all.

Deadpool wasn't buying it; he really hadn't said anything!

Shut up! You blabbermouth, if you keep babbling, I'll shove my steel claws up your ass!

Wolverine was truly fed up with this incessantly chattering guy; he was making his head buzz.

Sabretooth extended his sharp claws nearby, clearly he also found Deadpool annoying.

Alright, everyone's family here; you might need to team up for missions in the future.

After Steve sat down, he ordered a whiskey and a strawberry juice for Polaris beside him.

Let's start with Logan, do you have anything you want to do?

If you want to become ordinary people and live a peaceful life, I can also arrange for you to work in other places, screwing in screws.

Steve didn't immediately recruit them; instead, he gave them complete freedom of choice.

I'm with you.

Sabretooth was the first to express obedience. He sought excitement, otherwise, he wouldn't have joined Stryker's team.

Steve's two punches had sobered him up. According to the special forces members, following the Captainmeant eating nine meals a day!

Following Stryker meant starving nine meals in three days!

Wolverine looked at his brother Sabretooth and took a deep drag from his cigar.

I'm also willing to work for you, how much is the monthly salary?

Ten thousand U.S. dollars a month, other allowances and benefits will be explained at S.H.I.E.L.D.

Steve smiled. With Wolverine and Sabretooth, two high-level workhorses, he could continue to happily slack off.

Wolverine was furious, Sabretooth was brutal. Both brothers were not good people, with severe violent tendencies.

He needed this kind of talent, no bleeding hearts!

Deadpool's eyes lit up upon hearing this.

Captain, what about me, what about me!

You can also join. Alright, Wade, you said you had something to tell me, you can say it now.

Steve held no ill will towards Deadpool, but also not too much fondness.

He simply felt that this person could be used, similar to Punisher's positioning, an anti-hero who fights fire with fire.

You, can't you just take off your mask? What's there to hide?

Wolverine had long found him annoying, and seized the opportunity to say a few words to him.

Deadpool hesitated; he indeed had something to hide.

After much hesitation, looking at Captain America's smile.

Deadpool still took off his mask, and in an instant, an incredibly ugly face appeared.

Sabretooth directly spat out a mouthful of drink, choking half to death.

What the f-! You're too ugly, buddy!

Wolverine's brain first crashed, then he couldn't help but laugh, finally bursting into uproarious laughter.

Haha, this thing looks like it's been peed on by a Shar-Pei!

Deadpool was a bit helpless, picking up his glass and taking a swig.

Laugh, laugh, keep laughing, you're all heartless people.

I should treat you to bullets instead! You see, the Captain isn't laughing!

Steve indeed didn't laugh, nor did he find anything funny.

He reached out and patted Deadpool's shoulder, then picked up his glass and clinked it with his.

I understand you, I'm also treated as a freak. Many people want my blood, wanting to research the secret to becoming a super-soldier.

Everyone who sees it wants to take a bite, this feeling is terrible, I can understand you.

Come, cheers!

An excellent leader would never mock his subordinates. He didn't find it funny.

Womanizing and being a playboy were flaws, but Captain America was never seen mocking his own people.

Of course, enemies were an exception!

If the opponent was a black person, Captain Americawould still tell them to go home and pick cotton!

After Wolverine and Sabretooth finished laughing, they listened to Captain America's words and exchanged glances; they had indeed been a bit too much.

Picking up their glasses and clinking them with Deadpool's, Wolverine, for once, apologized.

Buddy, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have mocked you, I'll drink three for punishment!

Me too!

You're just trying to get free drinks and food! Damn it, I knew you weren't truly apologizing!

Seeing the two directly pick up bottles, Deadpoolcouldn't help but complain.

After arguing for a while, the three finally calmed down.

Deadpool began to explain his past, and only then did everyone understand his history.

Deadpool, whose real name is Wade Wilson, was once a member of the special forces, and after retiring, became a mercenary.

He often took mercenary assignments at his friend Weasel's bar. One day, by chance, he met his beloved.

Vanessa, a prostitute working in a nightclub, and he started a relationship with her, living together, heading towards marriage.

However, fate was cruel; Wade was diagnosed with late-stage cancer, and his life was coming to an end.

To survive and to continue to be with Vanessa, Wadeaccepted Ajax (Francis)'s secret experiment.

This experiment aimed to give people super regenerative abilities through genetic modification, but the experimental process was inhumane, and Wadesuffered immense pain.

Although he gained regenerative abilities, his face became disfigured, like a monster.

During one experiment, he managed to get a match from Ajax's female assistant and, after lighting it, threw it into the oxygen duct.

This caused the laboratory to explode, and he escaped as a result.

After clashing with Ajax, he was defeated and pinned to the ground with rebar by the opponent.

He was left to be consumed by the laboratory fire. Fortunately, his ugly immortality allowed him to survive the fire.

Wade couldn't accept himself like this, afraid of scaring Vanessa, so he chose to leave.

During this time, he repeatedly tried to commit suicide, attempting various methods of death.

Being eaten by a tiger, being crushed by a crane, jumping from a hundred-story building.

But he never died; no matter how severe the injury, he could gradually heal himself.

Thereafter, he put on a red tight-fitting uniform and a mask to cover his face, transforming into Deadpool, fighting crime in the streets and alleys.

And he pursued those involved in experiments related to Mutant modification, constantly tracking Ajax's whereabouts.

With his super regenerative abilities and excellent combat skills, he became a terrifying presence for criminals.

It seemed that only this could give him meaning to live, and make him forget his ugly, disfigured face.

At the same time, Wade was determined to find Ajaxfor revenge.

But fate played a trick; Ajax also, through investigation, identified Deadpool, who was destroying his business and slaughtering his subordinates, as Wade.

So he kidnapped his girlfriend Vanessa, forcing him to rescue her, thereby setting up an ambush to kill Deadpool.

Last night, Deadpool was preparing to rescue her when he encountered Steve being attacked by Wolverine and others, so he lent a hand.

His intention was merely to ask Captain America for help; he wasn't sure if the other party would assist.

Justice is one thing, integrity is another. Is it appropriate to offend a force for this stranger?

Are you saying this Ajax creates Mutants, then uses collars with implanted bombs to sell them as super slaves?

Steve thoughtfully stroked his chin; this was similar to the information Valentina had given him.

This Ajax was the person Valentina was cooperating to apprehend. Who said he had to be captured alive?

Dead also counts!

That's right, this Ajax has always sought out marginalized individuals who have lost hope in life for his experiments.

This way, even if they die or disappear, no one will care.

Captain, please help me, I'm willing to pay any price.

Then, I'll leave the matter of rescuing Vanessa to you!

After speaking, Deadpool comically turned his back to him, presenting his rear, with one hand supporting it.

Steve kicked him flying, laughing and scolding.

I'm not interested in men, get lost!

Polaris gave Deadpool an unfriendly glance; this man was disgusting!

According to Deadpool and Valentina's intelligence, Ajax must be connected with many forces behind the scenes.

Who would need to buy super slaves?

Steve wasn't interested in this question. Anyway, after catching him, all his evil deeds would be blamed on Gorgon.

As long as Gorgon's reputation was ruined, after the mission was complete, he could kill him!

Mission triggered: Superpowered Subordinates.

Please recruit ten superpowered individuals as subordinates and raise their loyalty to 80.

Reward: Weapon, Shield, and Suit upgrade.

When Steve focused on loyalty, the information prompt appeared again.

Loyalty is nothing more than personal treatment, preventing future development, and personal admiration for the leader.

Take them on more missions, let them witness your might. Dinners, heart-to-heart talks, it's not difficult!

Goodness, there were even tips on how to do it.

Steve had never understood these things before; he only knew that HYDRA's internal Agents and undercover Agents admired him and believed in HYDRA's vision of creating a better World.

It seems this mission isn't that easy to complete; it will take time!

Chapter 118 The Second Generation Wasp Woman Short-haired and Capable Hope

Steve checked the progress again and found that the situation was not bad, and Vampires actually counted! His wife also counted!

Currently, he has seven superpowered subordinates: Wolverine, Sabretooth, Deadpool, Polaris, Nissa, Wei Lian, and Chad Nomak.

He hadn't expected his wife to count.

But why didn't Hill and Sharon, who also possessed Super Soldier abilities, count?

Did Super Soldiers not count?

It was a bit frustrating; otherwise, he could have completed the mission in minutes.

"Captain?"

Deadpool waved his hand in front of him. Was he spacing out?

"I'm thinking about what to do next. Oh, did Ajax send you any information about where to meet him?"

Steve had no choice but to focus on Mutants. While Charles hadn't yet formed a team, why not try to 'leech' off them early?

"Yes, at an old shipyard in New Jersey, in three days."

Deadpool dared not act flippantly in front of Steve, mainly because the Captain's aura made it difficult for anyone to be anything but serious.

"Alright, we'll go together then. It'll be our first mission.

Weasel, put out an announcement. We need some help.

We're looking for people with superpowers. It doesn't matter how strong their combat power is; the main thing is that they have superpowers."

Weasel trembled with excitement. Was the Captaingiving him a mission?

"Oh, my goodness, I am, I mean, Captain, are you asking me to do something for you?"

"Of course, if you're willing."

Steve smiled slightly, also inwardly amazed. Was his reputation really that big?

He didn't know that his legendary experiences, after being broadcast in movies, had already attracted the attention of the entire World, especially since television was free to watch.

Coupled with overwhelming news, a single person confronting the National Guard with tanks—this heroic spirit!

Women were moved, and men were stirred with passion. This was a hero!

"Willing, willing! I'm very willing!"

Weasel was so excited he was trembling. This was a national idol, Captain America!

No, he couldn't help but shout it out and tell all his fair-weather friends.

"Huh, how did you know I was working for Captain America?"

"Alright, calm down. Someone will deliver a sum of money later; you keep it. That's for recruitment.

Working with me, as long as I have something to eat, you'll have something to eat. I won't be like those powerful elites.

I Hope everyone is safe, free, happy, and doing what they want to do.

Look at the current order; how many criminals have escaped punishment due to dirty deals?"

Steve seemed a bit pained; in fact, he didn't really care. But he had to put on a good show; he hadn't reached the point where he could do whatever he wanted.

Everyone looked on with respect, unable to help but salute him. Perhaps this was a true hero!

Only Polaris had a strange expression, using her wine glass to hide the smile at the corner of her mouth.

Although she had just become his intimate partner, she clearly felt that the Captain in private was more like a human being.

But in certain areas, he wasn't like a human, but like a tireless breeding pig!

--

Florida, in an underground safe house.

Gorgon had already fled from New York to here. Not long ago, he was still in a safe house in New York.

As a result, he was attacked by a special forces team, and his hard-won subordinates were wiped out again.

He was chased like a dog, forced to flee to the southernmost safe house.

Further south was the Caribbean Sea, a chaotic and lawless place where even S.H.I.E.L.D. wouldn't be able to find him.

Being hunted down relentlessly, his planned comeback strategies had been delayed indefinitely.

For him, the only chance for a comeback was to kill Captain America. Then take over S.H.I.E.L.D., eliminate Hill, Sharon, and Fury, and seize power himself.

Then, using incriminating evidence, he would bring his defected allies back into his fold.

He didn't need to worry if they wouldn't return due to losing face; as long as there was profit, these capitalists, senators, and elites would personally offer up their mothers and wives.

This was capital! No dignity, no face, only profit in their eyes!

"Boss, now the CIA, FBI, and S.H.I.E.L.D. are all after us.

Our loyalists in the Military have also been assassinated and are busy vying for positions, with no time to heed our orders."

A local branch subordinate came to report the situation, his voice still calm.

To establish a foothold in chaotic Florida, he had seen many major events.

The robbers here dared to wield submachine guns, engaging in gunfights with Police in the streets, and bombs and Rockets were used indiscriminately.

This was a favorite place for illegal immigrants and the city with the most immigrants.

Prosperity mixed with deeply rooted crime; even local tycoons might have been ruthless bandits in the past!

"Gather everyone, bring everyone you can. The fish have taken the bait; this time, I will make Steve die!"

Bang!

Gorgon slammed his palm on the solid wood table, shattering it. The thought of his decades of hard work being destroyed in an instant made him furious enough to explode!

And Danica, that Vampire bitch!

When he regained power, he would tie her up and expose her to the sun!

At this moment, a masked man walked in. Looking at the scattered wood on the floor, he couldn't help but sneer.

"Long time no see, Mr. Gorgon."

"Black King Shaw, stop playing games. Kill Steve this time.

Afterward, I'll give you an identity to enter the Militaryand lead Mutant experiments.

I'll give you a piece of land in the Middle East; you can do whatever you want, even establish a country!"

Gorgon suppressed his anger. Facing a strong enemy, he was not afraid. To others, Black King Shaw was troublesome, but only because they didn't know his weakness.

Otherwise, with Black King Shaw's ability to absorb kinetic energy, ninety percent of the Military would be unable to harm him.

"Heh heh, I think it would be better to hold the decisive battle at the Stark Expo.

If civilians are killed or injured, we can then introduce the Superpowered Security Plan, collect more money, and appear openly.

What do you think?"

Black King Shaw's ambitions were huge; he wanted to become a superior being. Establish a Mutant kingdom?

It sounded good, but before that, it wasn't too late to cling to the behemoth that was the U.S., suck its blood dry, and then make other plans!

He unfolded the map and took a look.

Gorgon's smile grew more sinister. Why hadn't he thought of that?

Heh heh, since that was the case, he would add more fuel to the Fire!

He would reveal the secret that Steve was colluding with Vampires and was a HYDRA member!

The reason he hadn't disclosed it initially was that everyone was pretty much the same: all HYDRA, all collaborating with Vampires.

Now that he had lost that advantage, he no longer needed to be constrained and could act boldly!

--

A Villa on the outskirts of New York.

Steve, accompanied by Shadow and Polaris, came to visit. Dr. Pym and his daughter lived here.

The door was opened by a short-haired beauty with delicate features. A women's suit highlighted her capable aura, but her demeanor was somewhat cold.

Hope opened the door and glanced at Steve, frowning slightly in confusion.

"Captain America?"

"It's me. Just call me Steve. Miss Hope, it's a pleasure to meet you. You're even more beautiful than in pictures!"

Steve's flirting skills were becoming increasingly refined. He actively reached out and held her soft hand.

Hope's face flashed with a hint of shyness. She usually showed no favoritism to any man.

Having lost her mother in childhood, she had never experienced maternal love, which made her personality aloof.

"Please come in."

The three entered the house, and Hope proactively went to pour tea.

Shadow stood silently to the side. She had spoken with Steve, but he had brought her to visit Dr. Pym.

Deep down, she wasn't particularly fond of Dr. Pym.

Because of her parents' death, Pym bore some responsibility, but she hadn't blamed Dr. Pym directly.

Shadow's parents were Dr. Pym's colleagues and S.H.I.E.L.D. researchers, later following Dr. Pym to work at the company he founded.

However, driven by greed, they stole blueprints and reports for Quantum Realm research.

Quantum experiments could yield immense profits, and in the tiny, unseen areas, there were things of great research significance.

Unfortunately, due to a Quantum experiment accident, Shadow's parents died, and she became a strange being existing between reality and illusion!

Trusting Steve was based on his title as Captain America.

Unfortunately, while she wanted to be cured, Steve was lusting after her body.

Don't let a good girl go, don't waste a bad girl!

Polaris sat down as soon as she entered, rubbing her high-heeled feet. She was still unaccustomed to wearing high heels.

Such shoes were not very comfortable, and besides increasing Steve's attack speed, they offered no other benefits.

However, seeing Nissa and Wei Lian wear them, she followed suit. If Steve hadn't liked it, she wouldn't have changed her habits.

For Polaris, her father Magneto had his own matters to attend to, and also needed to find his other half-siblings who had been separated for many years.

It could be said that Steve was her everything, her entire World.

She was willing to build a family with Steve. If she left Steve, she would have nothing, returning to her lonely life on the streets.

She would not allow it, she was unwilling, and she certainly didn't want it.

So, being a good wife and pleasing her husband seemed not so difficult to accept.

Hope noticed faint tooth marks on Polaris's delicate feet, her gaze flashing briefly as she placed the coffee on the table.

With a goddess-like crossed-leg posture, she picked up the coffee and gently blew on it.

"Please enjoy!"

"Thank you, Miss Hope. I'm here to see Dr. Pym. I need his help."

Steve got straight to the point. The Hope in front of him (the second Wasp, from the Ant-Man movie series) was very refreshing, capable, and alluring, but now was not the time for flirting.

"Just call me Hope. My father won't be off work for another half an hour.

What do you need him for?

I've heard about your situation, and I believe you are righteous."

Hope smiled. Her short haircut suited her best, making her look young and vibrant, cool, stylish, and charming.

"Thank you for your trust. My friend here needs some knowledge about the Quantum Realm."
