Chapter 217 Isolated and helpless
If the Kree really infiltrated the top levels of governments of various countries and guided everything towards the results they expected, then in the long run, it would be entirely possible for the Kree to achieve peaceful evolution on the Blue Planet.
Lin Feng looked at Ross, "That pill is the masterpiece of Dr. Senna. After taking it, it will cause a rejection reaction to the Kree, and can accurately identify the Kree. If you want to eliminate this reaction, you need to take another pill."
Ross raised his head and swallowed the pill without hesitation.
Lin Feng was stunned. "You trust me so much, aren't you afraid that I'm a Kree?"
Ross smiled and said, "I believe you, that's all, I don't need any other reason."
Lin Feng also smiled, "Mr. Ross, thank you for your trust. Starting tomorrow, the agreement will take effect. A special surveillance team will appear around me, and I will lose a lot of freedom. I hope you will take care of yourself. If you have any questions, you can contact the people you know in the Avengers."
Ross nodded solemnly. He understood Lin Feng's intention, that he should keep a close eye on the top leaders of the United Nations to see if there was any infiltration by the Kree. He vaguely felt that the introduction of the "Draft Sokovia Convention" was probably aimed at Professor Lin Feng. To a certain extent, restricting Lin Feng was equivalent to restricting the gods.
Before leaving the office, Lin Feng told Ross, "Mr. Ross, please issue an arrest warrant for Sam, Rogers and the Winter Soldier." After thinking for a moment, Ross immediately nodded in agreement.
In an abandoned factory, Rogers was talking to Lin Feng, "Bucky has been rescued, but he is still unconscious. Professor, what are you going to do next?"
"I'm worried that Ross will put you on the wanted list." Lin Feng's voice was serious and earnest. Sam looked at the helicopters flying by from time to time and said helplessly: "This seems to be true. Are we really wanted?"
Rogers hesitated. "A self-torture trick?"
"Yes, Rogers, you are wanted, I am under surveillance, and Stark's anxiety disorder is just a cover, he is pretending. The three of us are in crisis, and the only ones who can take charge of the situation are Natasha and Hashimoto Tamaki. This will make it easier for Hashimoto Tamaki to infiltrate the Kree more quickly." Lin Feng told everything.
Rogers smiled and said, "I see. Well, I will try my best to escape and try not to be caught. Professor, you should also speed up your actions."
"Well, I've wronged you for a while. Be reserved in front of Bucky. The program in his brain may be exploited by the enemy at any time." Lin Feng said on the other end of the phone.
Rogers responded, "Got it," and hung up the phone. Then Sam called out, "Rogers, he's awake."
Rogers trotted over to Bucky's side.
As Bucky slowly woke up, he instinctively wanted to move his body, but found that he could not move. He suddenly realized that his mechanical arm was stuck in the machine next to him.
Rogers looked at him with a slightly wary look, and for a moment it was difficult to tell whether the man in front of him was his former best friend or a ruthless killer from Hydra.
Bucky looked at Rogers and called out in a weak and affectionate voice, "Steve." His voice revealed the fatigue of someone who had just recovered from a serious illness.
Rogers frowned, stared at Bucky and asked, "Which Bucky is talking to me?"
Bucky understood his confusion. His current state was indeed difficult to distinguish. He thought for a moment and said, "Your mother's name is Sarah. When you were a child, you always put newspapers in your shoes because you felt you were not tall enough." Bucky couldn't help but chuckle when he mentioned Rogers' childhood anecdotes.
Rogers was a little embarrassed, but still said with certainty: "These are only known to my closest friends in childhood. There will be no such records in the museum."
Sam interjected, "It seems he is your friend, not the demon from Hydra." He stepped forward and helped Bucky move his arm, trying to remove it from the machine as soon as possible. This mechanical arm is incredibly powerful, and they had no choice but to treat Bucky like this.
Bucky recalled the last clear memory before he woke up. The doctor took out a notebook with a red star cover and said words he never wanted to hear in his life. He knew that he was being used and resurrected as a killing machine. Whenever he was half asleep and half awake, the scenes of the victims would always reappear in his mind.
Thinking of this, Bucky couldn't help but panic. He whispered, "What did I do?"
Rogers immediately responded: "That's too much."
Sam looked at him and did not refute. Indeed, if it were not for the secret protection of the gods, those unconscious guards would probably have died long ago.
Bucky was heartbroken when he heard this, and at the same time, he felt ashamed for not being able to resist the program set by Hydra. He laughed at himself, "As expected, I knew it. God, the activation program planted by the damn Hydra in my brain is still there. As long as the doctor says those words, he can activate it. I can't control myself at all. I committed murder again."
Rogers grasped the key information. Bucky was controlled by a program that required specific words to activate, and it was controlled by Hydra. Although this could not clear Bucky of the crime of being a killer in many political massacres, it at least proved that he was a tool being used. He quickly asked Bucky: "Who is that psychiatrist?"
Bucky knew nothing about the psychiatrist. He had no recollection of ever having met one before. He answered truthfully, "I don't know."
Rogers said with some regret, "More than seventy people were killed or injured in the bombing tragedy in Vienna that framed you. That doctor went to so much trouble just to spend ten minutes with you and wake you up as the Winter Soldier again? Bucky, you can't just say you don't know. I need you to provide more information so that I can help you clear your name."
Bucky's heart ached when he heard Vienna. In order to find the psychiatrist, he had hurt so many people so cruelly, and they were all innocent. They all suffered misfortune because of him. He knew that he needed to cooperate with Rogers to find the doctor as soon as possible.
He knew that his identity as the Winter Soldier was the only thing the doctor could use. After thinking for a moment, he began to reveal what he knew. In his vague memory, the doctor seemed to give him orders, mentioning the mission in Siberia in 1991.
He said, "He wants to know about Siberia. That's where I was imprisoned as the Winter Soldier. He wants to know exactly where it is." Rogers and Sam looked at each other, knowing that they were about to touch the heart of the conspiracy. Rogers asked, "What about Siberia? What does he want to know about that place?"
Bucky's eyes flashed with fear, and then they became serious and solemn. He said seriously: "Because there is more than one Winter Soldier."
He recalled the mission he carried out in 1991, in which he was ordered to intercept scientists returning from a visit to the United States. He killed them on the way and seized five pharmaceutical products from them.
Rogers was a little surprised to hear this. If he remembered correctly, 1991 was the year when Stark's parents visited the Soviet Union.
Bucky narrated slowly, "I still remember clearly that a man who looked like an officer injected five doses of the drug into the bodies of five volunteers who seemed strong, brave and agile. After experiencing a period of painful rejection reactions, they finally adapted to the drugs."
Rogers recalled the pain he went through when he became a super soldier and felt empathy for the five volunteers.
Bucky went on to say, "I was ordered to conduct a confrontation drill with one of them, but unfortunately, I was no match for them. Whether it was reaction speed, strength, resistance to blows, agility, or even control of strength, they were slightly better than me."
Sam asked tentatively, "You mean, there are five other killers as scary as you?"
Bucky shook his head. “No, they’re better assassins than I am. They’re an elite death squad, the most murderous agents in Hydra’s history, and that was before they were injected with the serum.”
Rogers stared at Bucky, knowing the dangers that an out-of-control super soldier could bring. He asked worriedly, "Can the doctor control them?"
Bucky sighed, "Unfortunately, he totally can. If Hydra can program my brain, then it shouldn't be that hard to program theirs."
Rogers recalled the first time he met the doctor. The doctor's clear and ferocious expression made him worried. "The doctor said that he wanted to witness the collapse of people's faith."
"So, he wants to take action against God? But even if he is brave, he is not capable enough, right? Five super soldiers are just super soldiers." Sam questioned.
Baki shook his head. "He doesn't want to attack the gods, but he can pretend to be a supporter of the gods and start violent incidents. The damage caused to people by the Chinese God Cult and the anti-God movement some time ago has not completely dissipated. If a similar large-scale violent incident occurs again, what do you think will happen?"
Rogers and Sam looked at each other involuntarily. Although this assumption was vicious, it was very reasonable. To destroy people's good impression of something, you just need to keep giving it negative impressions. Gods appear in the world as protectors, but they often appear at the last minute, which leads to the loss of life and property, thus creating a gap between people and gods. If large-scale violent incidents occur again and again, and people's acceptable lower limit is repeatedly lowered, then people's faith in gods will easily collapse.
Sam was still somewhat optimistic. "Recently, the security measures of various countries have been quite strict. It shouldn't be that serious, right?"
Bucky sneered, "They are proficient in more than 30 languages, and are good at disguise, tracking, and anti-tracking. They come and go without a trace. Infiltration, assassination, alienation, subversion, their methods are endless, and they can capture a country's political head organization overnight and catch you off guard. With the help of these five people, he is fully capable of subverting people's belief in God."
Rogers agreed. He recalled that when he was at the United Nations branch in Germany, Bucky rushed out of the encirclement of the security forces unarmed. Not only was he unharmed, but even without the protection of God, those people might have been killed on the spot. Although he had the cooperation of the fake doctor, Bucky's individual combat ability was undoubtedly quite terrifying. Rogers asked himself, in the same situation, he might be able to break through, but he could not guarantee that he would not be injured, let alone complete the counterattack. Now that the doctor can control such a terrifying killer, the threat is self-evident.
Sam took a step closer and whispered, "If this had happened a week ago, it might not have been so difficult."
A week ago, the "Draft of the Sokovia Convention" had not yet been issued, Lin Feng was completely free to act, Stark was still in the Avengers headquarters, Happy had not been in trouble, Rogers and Sam were still official Avengers members, not wanted criminals. Natasha did not have to run around and worry about various investigations, and Hashimoto Tamaki had not yet infiltrated the Kree, and they had sufficient backup at the time. But now, these convenient conditions have disappeared, and the two external aids, Thor and Del, are also gone. They can almost be said to be isolated and helpless.
Rogers sighed, "What if we tell Sharon about this?"
Sam shrugged noncommittally. "She won't believe it. She's from the United Nations. She needs evidence, not our unfounded speculation."
Rogers looked at Sam, "What if she believes it?"
Sam added: "Will other people in the United Nations believe it? For example, Ross? You have seen Ross's attitude towards Bucky. Sharon is just an agent. Even if she believes us, the convenience she can provide us is nothing more than intelligence. People like Ross who have military power are the ones who can really provide us with the greatest help. Even if they believe it, the Agreement is still there, which is not only a constraint on Professor Lin Feng, but also a constraint on us. Will they help?"
Rogers looked up at the sky. "So, we can only act on our own this time?"
Sam shrugged again, "That may not be the case. I do know someone who can do it."
On the television screens in the United States, the public channel is broadcasting a news feature with the headline "We have successfully sanctioned God, and the great America will remain standing."
However, the picture suddenly jumped, and was replaced by a pattern covered with Islamic characters, accompanied by a deep voice, slowly saying: "This is a true story about fortune cookies, a true story that is undoubtedly true."
Rogers, who is in Germany, is facing the dilemma of being wanted, while Stark, who is far away in America, is keeping a close eye on this news event.
He had no intention of getting involved in politics, but after witnessing Kai Xin's tragic experience, he made up his mind that regardless of politics or Avengers, he would personally seek justice for Kai Xin. He knew that this was a terrorist attack planned by Mandarin, and he also understood that such attacks were often carried out by cult organizations.
