Chapter 918: Multiple Parties (Please Give Me a Monthly Ticket! Please Recommend! Please Subscribe! Please Collect!)

Winter Soldier was abandoned.

Pierce was a little surprised. You know, this old guy has always regarded Winter Soldier as his own private property. Although Winter Soldier is the common property of Hydra, in fact, a series of maintenance and upkeep of Winter Soldier are in his hands. But now he is actually going to abandon Winter Soldier.

"Will it be too wasteful?" This time, Pierce felt distressed. Apart from anything else, Winter Soldier is absolutely perfect as a weapon. His missions have never had any problems in these years, which is the best proof.

"Waste... a little bit. But the problem is that we can't extract much value from him. For so many years, the project of super soldier serum has completely failed. His greatest value is gone. As for being a weapon... To be honest, he is really great, but not irreplaceable. One person can't replace him, so use more people, it won't cost much money." Daniel Whitehall said coldly.

Today, Whitehall suspects that Dr. Erskine's creation of Captain America was just an accident, and he himself couldn't make a perfect super soldier serum. They are researching a defective product, which will only lead them further and further down the wrong path!

So everything they did needed to be re-done.

What Whitehall didn't know was that his idea... was really right. The original sample of Dr. Erskine's super soldier serum came from the devil!

This creature, which is completely different from humans, has a power that humans can never understand. This also led to the fact that the super soldier serum they envisioned could not succeed from the beginning. The extreme power of the devil has a very unfaithful impact on humans.

Probably only good people can control that kind of power, while bad guys will become uncontrollable because of that power.

That is, the good are better, and the bad are worse.

For example, Red Skull thought he became like that because the serum was not perfect, but in fact it was not the case. It was just because he was a bad guy.

This is why Dr. Erskine chose Steve Rogers, a thin, sick, but kind, and righteous little man. To be honest, shouldn't the test subject be as healthy as possible in this kind of experiment?

Perhaps Dr. Erskine had guessed the reason from that time.

Anyway, decades later, Hydra has almost given up the research on super soldier serum and turned to other directions.

For example, the Death Warrior Project that Clairvoyant is responsible for.

It is another direction of super soldier serum.

In this way, the Winter Soldier itself is dispensable. As for the role of the Winter Soldier in force... that's even more ridiculous. No matter how strong the Winter Soldier is, he is just one person.

He can do the work of ten people alone, which is great.

But Hydra is short of ten people?

Their human resources are not too sufficient. With the huge organization of SHIELD, they don't even need to open an additional agent training base.

So the Winter Soldier is not as important as imagined.

After Pierce put aside his special feelings for Captain America and Red Skull, he immediately reacted.

Without the bonus of feelings, the Winter Soldier is just a useful agent.

"I think I know what to do." Pierce nodded.

At the same time, Pierce also knew another meaning of Whitehall, that is... the plan against Wakanda will be led by him!

This is considered an exchange.

"That's good. Everyone, I have another experiment to do, so...see you later." Whitehall logged off after saying that.

Others didn't say much and logged off one after another. After all, even if they wanted to do something, there was no reason to say it here.

Except for one person.

Mrs. Hydra.

"Madam...what do you want?" Pierce looked at Mrs. Hydra with a little surprise.

"I need you to share some information." Mrs. Hydra said calmly.

"What aspect?"

"Superhero aspect!"

"All?"

"All!" Mrs. Hydra then emphasized: "The more detailed the Knight King is, the better."

"This...it seems that I have shared this information." Pierce raised his eyebrows.

"What I want is what they don't know. In exchange. I will transfer part of the blood orchid to you." Mrs. Hydra said very calmly.

This time really surprised Pierce.

Blood orchid is not an ordinary thing.

In the 1990s, an explorer named Bill Johnson was employed by a pharmaceutical company and found this plant in the primitive jungle of Borneo. According to local legends, blood orchids have the mysterious power to make people immortal. The rumor that "almost no one has ever obtained it" has gradually made blood orchids a legend. None of the expedition team that followed Bill Johnson into the jungle survived. They were all swallowed by giant pythons affected by blood orchids. Only Bill Johnson returned to civilization with a limited number of blood orchids.

Guess who owns that pharmaceutical company?

Yes, it was Mrs. Hydra.

After that, Bill Johnson was killed, and Mrs. Hydra led people to kill those giant pythons and dug up all the blood orchids.

Unfortunately, the results were not satisfactory. The artificial cultivation of blood orchids completely failed. The real blood orchid seems to grow only in the original place. And that place is very small, just next to a small waterfall. Blood orchids cannot be cultivated anywhere except there.

Even if Hydra restores the ecology 100%, it cannot be cultivated anywhere else.

In addition, the growth rate and conditions of blood orchids are extremely harsh, and the yield of blood orchids is very impressive.

However, the effect of Blood Orchid is also very infectious.

The extract of blood orchid has the unlimited regenerative ability to keep cells in order. It is because of this that those pythons can grow to more than twenty meters long.

This thing can really make people immortal.

Also because of its rarity in effects and output, Blood Orchid has always been a forbidden favorite of Madam Hydra, and no one else is qualified to get involved. Of course, Madam Hydra will not really let it out at all, but it needs to be exchanged for something!

But now, Madam Hydra is actually willing to give up all the blood orchids in exchange for information. ơɱ

"Are you serious?"

"What do you think?"

"Okay! Change!" Why not change!

There is no way to live forever for Pierce. Whitehall has his own scientific approach. But there are too many side effects of that thing. Look at Whitehall. Basically, he can only stay in his base and cannot go out at all. He must strictly follow the requirements when eating, and he is not even allowed to touch alcohol. Forget it, you still have to wait for a while to replace all your internal organs... This thing requires a lot of surgeries, and with the subsequent complications, it can't be considered alive at all.

Baron...his method of immortality cannot be copied at all. Just don’t mention it.

Madam Hydra's method of immortality...no one knows. Anyway, before Xuelan was discovered, others lived for almost a hundred years.

As far as he knew, both he and Gideon Malik were spending vast resources to obtain Blood Orchid extract from Madam Hydra.

…

After Mrs. Hydra, or Mrs. Viper, went offline, she sat alone in her seat in a daze.

Ophelia Sargsyan, this is the name of the Viper Lady. In fact she has been around longer than anyone within Hydra knows. The reason why she was able to live for such a long time was because she signed a contract with the ancient evil god Chthon, which gave her the ability to greatly slow down aging and stay young almost forever. This contract has no time limit, but there is a corresponding price to pay.

soul.

She needs a lot of souls to satisfy the evil god's desires.

During World War I, she created the most terrifying poison gas for Germany in order to cause greater death. Unfortunately it was stopped.

She ran away in a panic and failed to offer a sacrifice to the evil god, so she suffered an unprecedented punishment.

It was also because of this encounter that Madam Viper made up her mind to surrender to the control of the evil god. Hard work pays off. In order to recruit her during World War II, the Red Skull helped her find an artifact. This artifact could not touch her contract with the evil god, but it could prevent the evil god from finding her again.

This kept her free for decades. This is why she has kept a low profile over the years. Don't let her have to prepare sacrifices for the evil god all the time, just like a machine.

Unfortunately, things always happen unexpectedly.

Not long ago, the power of the evil god suddenly became stronger. The artifact used to obscure her presence had begun to fail.

It won't be long before the evil god will find her!

Thinking of the punishment she had experienced, Madam Hydra immediately felt a chill to her bones. That feeling... she was unwilling to experience it again. But the worst thing is that death cannot allow her to escape the evil god. Even if she dies, she will be sending herself into the hands of the evil god!

Not even death.

So she must save herself.

Unfortunately, she simply couldn't do it.

In order to completely get rid of the evil god, she used almost every method. Unfortunately they all failed.

Now she has reached the edge of the cliff.

And the last straw that can save her... is in the United States.

Mrs. Hydra pulled out some photos.

They are Wonder Woman, Angel Witch and King Knight!

This is her last chance!

…

The secret base of the Bureau of Shadows.

Peggy Carter looked at Steve Rogers solemnly.

"Steve, I hope you can calm down!" Ms. Carter used as soft a voice as possible to comfort Captain America.

Steve closed his eyes, but the moving eyes under his eyelids showed that he was not calm.

"I have to find him, Peggy. It was my fault I didn't save him. I can't let this mistake happen again."

"I know, I know. Steve. But when you see this, you should understand that he is no longer the Bucky Barnes we know. He is a terrorist... Steve." Peggy didn't either. I want to believe this, but...facts speak louder than words.

"No! Bucky is a hero! He's a patriot! You know that!" Steve stood up and shouted.

"But this doesn't change the fact! Steve!" Peggy also shouted in response.

"No! There must be a misunderstanding! I will find him, and I will find out why!" Steve stood up and was about to leave.

Peggy suddenly said coldly: "Just like you don't believe Bucky killed Howard?"

Steve paused.

"I believe there must be a reason!"

"What's the reason? Do you think Howard is a bad guy? So Bucky wants to kill him?" Peggy shouted. "I know you and Bucky are best friends! But Steve, you can't judge things by your own emotions alone!"

Steve stood there. After a while, he whispered: "I will find out!"

After saying that, he walked away without looking back.

Peggy sat on the chair holding her forehead.

Things are in trouble.

Then she took out the intercom: "Closely monitor Steve's whereabouts, and also closely monitor Tony Stark."

"Director... Tony Stark is out."

"What?" Peggy immediately became nervous. She was afraid that Tony would find Bucky: "Where did he go?!"

"He just flew over my head, and it seems that he found me. He went to the New York Police Department."

...

"Please accept my condolences, Prince T'Challa." In the morgue of the New York Police Department, Kai accompanied Prince T'Challa, the son of the King of Wakanda, to claim the body.

Originally, according to the customs of the Kingdom of Wakanda, their king must be sent back to Wakanda as soon as possible. The New York Police Department does not have the ability to detain the body of a kingdom, even for investigating a case.

But Prince T'Challa unexpectedly agreed to let the New York police perform an autopsy.

For this autopsy, the CIA, FBI, Department of Homeland Security and New York Police sent the most capable forensic experts to conduct a comprehensive autopsy on the body, and they did it in a way that caused the least damage to the body.

Actually, there is nothing to detect. He was killed by the explosion.

Absolutely.

"No, my sadness has passed. Wakandans are not afraid of death. We believe that death is just the beginning of another journey. The king of Wakanda will eventually return to the side of the Black Panther God. I am only full of anger now, and hatred must be settled! This is the best way for Wakandans to remember their loved ones!"

T'Challa said calmly. If it weren't for the deep sadness and anger in his eyes, Kai would have suspected that this man had a bad relationship with his father.

"Ahem, although I can understand you. But please pay attention, Prince, this is New York. You don't have the power to enforce the law, let alone kill people." Kai said a little embarrassedly.

A prince of a primitive tribe does not have extraterritoriality in New York.

T'Challa turned his head and looked at Kai.

"I know you, Kai Wayne. A superhero in New York, I know all the deeds. Tell me, if you were me, what would you do?"

Of course, fuck him!

What else can be said.

But the problem is that his current identity is not suitable for saying this.

"I personally think that blood for blood is a barbaric custom." Kai's words made T'Challa frown. He felt discriminated against.

Well, that's the basic operation of Blackie. He likes to think about everything in this way. But Kai's next words made him relax his brows.

"But sometimes, isn't this barbaric custom the fairest practice?"

This was said very quietly.

Then Kai said: "But it's better not to, after all, you don't want to cause international disputes, right?"

T'Challa thought for a while: "Of course! We are here to visit. But..."

"What?"

"I heard that there are many vigilantes in New York City, right?"

"Yes, there are quite a few."

"By the way, have you heard that there is another vigilante recently?"

"Who?" Kai asked thoughtfully.

"His name is Black Panther!" T'Challa said seriously: "If Black Panther kills the murderer... it should have nothing to do with Wakanda, right?"

"Well... vigilantes are troublesome. Especially the kind that kills people. They will be wanted." Kai can probably hear the hidden meaning. So he said after thinking it over. Meaning, don't make trouble, and don't get caught.

"Black Panther is a cautious man, and a principled man. He won't do anything to innocent people. Of course, he's also hard to catch."

"Tsk... what a hassle."

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion outside.

"Mr. Stark! Mr. Stark! You can't come in, you can't..."

Bang!

The door was violently pushed open, and Tony strode in wearing an iron armor.
