Chapter 254 Veterans Don't Die
Chapter 254 Veterans are immortal
In the large underground gym of Mark's house, Steve Rogers was doing daily training.Since Steve came to Mark's house, Mark has transformed the entire basement into a large gym, equipped with almost all fitness equipment and props, in order to allow Steve to perform rehabilitation training.
Steve's rehabilitation training has been continuing, and the speed of recovery is much faster than expected. It is not like a person who has been frozen for decades.
Steve has not received news about Mark for several days, but Mark has been acting elusive before, so Steve is not as worried as he thought. He believes that Mark will reappear in him in a few days. in front of.
But what Steve never expected was that the person who appeared in front of him was not Mark, but Nick.
Although he didn't hate this black man very much, he always found a bad sense of familiarity in him, a feeling shrouded in conspiracy.
He preferred to keep away from this black man and have to deal with him for some things, just like now that he is here.
"What's the matter? Sir." Steve hit the sandbag as usual, and the sandbag began to shake violently with Steve's blow.
"I'm here to ask you to join a SHIELD plan." Nick said bluntly.
"I said, I am no longer Captain America. There is no Captain America now, just an ordinary citizen, Steve Rogers."
"Okay, then I'll have a chat with Mr. Steve Rogers." Nick deliberately emphasized the pronunciation of his name.
Steve was not deaf, so how could he not understand the meaning of this? He stopped his movements and floated on the sandbag, looked at Nick behind him and said: "I no longer want to participate in any struggle, don't embarrass me. , okay?"
"How about we make a bet? I bet you will join this operation, 10 cents." Nick said and took out 10 cents from his pocket.
Steve looked confident in front of him, thinking that he was already a sure winner.After all, there is no action and I have to participate.
But just when Steve was about to step forward to get the money, a photo was drawn out of Nick's sleeve.
The content of the photo is very simple. It shows Mark on the bed in the intensive care unit with an oxygen tube inserted.
"What on earth is going on?" Steve asked in surprise as he looked at the content in the photo.
"In order to protect the Cosmic Cube, he was attacked by a group of people. He is now in a severe coma and has turned into a vegetative state. He may not even be able to wake up in this life."
Steve clenched his fists and looked at the weak Mark in the photo. He tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart and said to Nick in as calm a tone as possible: "Who did it?"
"We still don't know, we don't even know where the other party has gone, so we invited the best expert, Mr. Bruce Banner, to help us track it down. But we still lack one or two action members to help us, Complete this revenge."
Steve now understands why Nick made a bet with him?
He had already set up the other party's trap, but he didn't even know it.But no matter what the reason, he had to jump into this trap. Mark had helped him a lot when he needed help the most.
Looking at the mysterious black box that Nick brought over, he slowly opened the box. What lay inside was actually his shield, and a letter was also attached.
"You can take a look, I'm going out first."
The person who wrote the letter was Mark. Mark had agreed before and Nick asked Steve to come back to the world.But he didn't expect that the plan could not keep up with the changes, and he would actually use his serious injury as a condition to attract Steve to return to the world.
As the letter was opened, a ray of light shone on the wall, and Steve was slightly surprised. Are all letters nowadays so high-tech?
"Steve, although I know it's cruel to say this, I hope you can become Captain America again. You may not know that many, many things happened during the years when you were frozen, but everyone has never forgotten it. Captain America who saved the world. You are not only their idol, but also their pride or spiritual support. The world has begun to become precarious, so many things have happened in New York, and people are panicked. I hope you It's time to stand up and become their pillar of support..." Steve did not continue reading and closed the letter again.
Steve looked at Mark who was still fine in the letter, and then looked at the photo in his hand.There is no need for so many words.
A few minutes later, Steve came out of the basement wearing training clothes and holding a shield.
Nick looked at Steve now, his black face smiling happily.
…
A few hours later, in SHIELD headquarters, Nick was discussing this with the old guys from the World Security Council in a secret room.
"Director Nick, I need your explanation as to why the Cosmic Cube was lost from your hands. You promised it would be foolproof."
Nick snorted coldly and looked at these naked directors and said: "Have you ever fought in a war? Mr. directors? Have you been on the battlefield? Do you think you can still completely control the situation? Sometimes there are things that are not yours to see. It’s so easy to get there.”
"I don't care what you say, I just want to know who stole the Cosmic Cube! Was it the ghost, or someone else!"
"Definitely not Mark!" Nick couldn't control his emotions when he heard these old guys doubting Mark.
A hero who was seriously injured while protecting the Rubik's Cube is now suspected of being the one who stole the Rubik's Cube!
It would be better to just say that Mark is the devil who wants to subvert the entire world.
"Mr. Director, please calm down, we are just talking about one more possibility." said the only female director.
"There is no such possibility! You don't know what kind of injuries Mark suffered. It's a miracle that he can be rescued now."
"Okay! We understand, so now please form your team, complete your revenge, and retrieve the Cosmic Cube."
"This is what we should do!" Nick closed the communication without thinking after reading it.
Talking to these damn old guys always makes your blood pressure rise.
This is why for many years, I would rather do dirty work than ask for funds from these guys.
