American Comics: Multiverse of Madness

213. Hydra Captain.

"Alright, the infiltration plan was successful. I hope I can find Zemo's location before my cheap old man gets torn to pieces."

In the hidden passage of the X-Weapon Research Center, Ashley, now transformed into the Venom-Spider-Woman, was cautiously crawling along the ceiling. Sneaking into the heavily guarded Hydra base was clearly not an easy task.

"Oh yes, just like a hero~"

Venom's cheeky voice echoed, causing Ashley's originally serious expression to turn grim.

"Shut up, I'm not a hero!"

"Really, little girl? You should know that as a symbiote, I can clearly understand your thoughts. Right now, your head is filled with joining the Avengers..."

"Shut up, shut up, shut up! Those old relics are long dead; there's no Avengers anymore, okay? Even if there were, it would be an organization built by me, right on the ruins of Hydra!"

Ashley retorted angrily, though she kept her voice low to avoid revealing her position, considering she was in a Hydra base.

"Whatever, but whatever you plan to do doesn't matter to me. All I want right now is to see rivers of blood!"

Venom's face appeared on Ashley's shoulder, licking its teeth and revealing a cruel smile.

"My mission is infiltration, infiltration! Got it? I want to personally take down Baron Zemo, not waste time with these grunts."

"Feels like there's no difference between the two. We could easily kill all these grunts and then twist off Zemo's head and flush it down the toilet."

"Are you kidding? Killing these grunts would alert Zemo. I can't afford to let him escape, especially when I'm so close to succeeding. This is the first high-ranking villain I've ever encountered!"

"I can tell you're excited. Then let's just reverse the order—take Zemo's head first, then deal with everyone else here!"

"Just shut up and stop distracting me. I need to find Baron Zemo's location first!"

Ashley responded with a look of disgust, continuing to move along the edge of the ceiling, sticking to the blind spots of the security cameras. The closer she got to the center, the more Hydra soldiers there were. Fortunately, Venom could freely change its body, allowing it to help Ashley achieve a sort of 'invisibility' effect. However, what Ashley didn't know was that as she stealthily advanced, all her movements were being observed by a woman a hundred meters away.

"They're inside already?" On the hill, Pietro adjusted his goggles and asked.

"Yes, they've split into two teams. Out in the open are Barton and Melissa, drawing almost all of Hydra's attention, while that crazy girl is sneaking in." Kara replied, using her X-ray vision.

"How's it going? Should we go help?" Pietro was itching to join the action. The idea of not participating in taking down a Hydra stronghold was unacceptable to him.

"Don't be hasty. Our mission is only to ensure their safety. Until they're in danger, it's not our time to act." Kara crossed her arms, looking indifferent.

Kara still respected Alex's words, and because of her experiences, Kara had developed a rather detached personality. She wasn't particularly interested in getting involved in Barton's personal vendetta.

Of course, she was more than willing to help take down a villain like Baron Zemo. However, since Alex wanted Barton and his team to handle it personally, Kara was happy to sit back and relax.

"Ugh, doing nothing is so boring. I'm not like you, watching movies with your X-ray vision." Pietro looked at Kara enviously, realizing the second benefit of her X-ray vision. "How about you tell me what's going on inside? How are Barton and the others doing?"

"They..." Kara blinked and tilted her head slightly.

"They're having quite the fight."

Inside the X-Weapon Research Center.

"Do you think you can scare me?"

Old Barton quickly retreated, firing arrows with his right hand, launching a flurry of arrows directly at the Hydra Captain in front of him.

"I was trained by the real Captain America, not some cheap imitation with a knock-off shield!"

"I'm quite sure the Hydra files noted that your combat skills came from 'The Swordsman,' and your Captain is dead. I'm about to send you to join him!"

The Hydra Captain sneered, deflecting the incoming arrows with his shield. He then charged at Hawkeye like a raging bull. Seeing this, Songbird Melissa couldn't just stand by. She let out a low growl, and pink sound waves formed vibrant wings behind her. However, before she could take her next step, a powerful shockwave struck her, sending her crashing into a wall.

"Don't make any sudden moves, lady. This is a one-on-one arena, and your opponent should be me."

Songbird looked up at her attacker, frowning.

He was a muscular man in a blue suit with silver metal accents, wearing a belt with a prominent "A" symbol on it. He also had a metal helmet. But those who knew him understood that it wasn't just a helmet; it was part of Hydra's mechanical modifications.

Songbird knew who he was. His codename was Avalanche, a powerful mutant. As his name suggested, his ability was to create violent vibrations with his hands, strong enough to destroy buildings and cause earthquakes.

He had committed many crimes in the past. After being stopped countless times by heroes, he had intended to retire, but he was captured by Hydra and became one of their lackeys. While Songbird was momentarily stunned, Hawkeye was thrown aside by the Hydra Captain.

The aging Hawkeye's physical condition was far from what it once was. Battling glaucoma had diminished his combat abilities, and now he was facing a super-soldier on par with Captain America. He stood no chance.

"It's over, old man. You couldn't even handle one of my moves. Let's end this charade."

The Hydra Captain's eyes were bloodshot as he slowly approached Hawkeye. Hawkeye picked up his compound bow, spat blood onto the ground, and stood firmly. Facing the oncoming Hydra Captain, there was no fear in his eyes.

"I could do this all day."
