Infinite Possession of Beauty
Chapter 198 Ordinary People
New York, White House Estate.
Senator Brandt announced to the officers in front of him with a high expression.
"Here, I am very honored to present this Valor Medal to my good friend-Captain America!"
Steve’s victory on the front line is not only a victory for the United States over the Axis of evil, but also a very important political capital for Senator Brandt.To this end, he worked hard to publicize the deeds of Captain America, turning him from an illusory movie role into a real war hero.
"Captain America?"
"Captain, it's your turn to appear..."
The senator turned his head, tried to maintain the expression on his face, and shouted.
"Sir, Captain America has left." After shouting a few times, it was not Steve that came out, but a subordinate of the senator. He came to the senator and whispered: "It is said that Went to the strategic science department."
"It seems that our hero has many more important things waiting for him."
Pulling the corners of his mouth, revealing a reluctant smile, the senator explained as he looked at the officials who came to the ceremony.
...
Brooklyn, in the secret base of the Strategic Science Department.
"One is in the Baltic Sea in Poland, and another..."
Steve is trying to recall the contents of the map he saw in the Hydra base before.
Although successfully eliminated a base of Hydra and rescued the captives of the 107th Legion, Steve knew very well that the Red Skull would not give up because of this. Judging from what he said to himself before, he has a strong The powerful red skull must have a more evil purpose.
"This is all the weapon factory information we currently know. However, according to Sergeant Bucky Barnes, Hydra has shipped all its equipment to one place, and there is no information about this place on the map. "Looking at the place marked on the map, Steve frowned.
"On this point, Agent Carter has negotiated with MI6 and has asked every allied country to search for the location of Hydra's headquarters." Looking down at the map, Colonel Phillips replied.
"What about us, sir?"
"We are going to give John Schmidt a fight, how about it, Steve, can you remember the location on the map, are you confident to defeat Hydra?" Turned his head and glanced at Steve, Philip Colonel Si asked.
"Yes, sir!"
Looking back at the map, Steve replied without thinking.
"However, I need a team."
"We already have outstanding soldiers."
"With all due respect, sir, I also have..."
...
"Continued Cup!"
"Jim, you are drunk!"
"I'm not drunk even when you are drunk!"
After finally surviving from the frontline battlefield, the soldiers needed alcohol to relieve their tense emotions.
"Why do you keep looking at this mask."
Bucky poured a glass of beer and looked sideways at Dior and the pale mask in his hand.
People in the strategic science department have studied the composition of this mask, and the answer is that there is no abnormality. This is just an ordinary stone mask.
"This is just an ordinary mask, the research department staff have already said..."
"No, the researchers are wrong, this is not an ordinary mask." Interrupting Bucky's words, Dior glanced at the stone ghost face in his hand, but suddenly asked, "What do you think of war?" "
"war?"
Dior's question made the expression on Bucky's face stunned. He was just a sergeant, obeying orders to defend his country, and he did not expect to be so far away.
"On the battlefield, as ordinary people, we are too fragile. Whether it is facing the death army of John Schmidt or the weapons developed by Hydra, sometimes even a flying bullet can be easy. It takes our lives. So, I am very jealous of Steve. I trained hard, and he gained power beyond humans by participating in an experiment. This opportunity should have belonged to me. If I could gain these powers if……"
As Dior spoke, his eyes were always on the pale stone ghost face in his hand.
"..."
Dior's words silenced Bucky.
As a soldier coming down from the battlefield, he is well aware of the cruelty of war. People die on the battlefield every day. Maybe the comrades who talked with you a lot of time before will lose their breath in the next moment.
It took a long time before Bucky took a swig of beer and said: "At least we survived and successfully destroyed a base of John Schmidt and thwarted his evil conspiracy. What's more, power beyond humans is not like this. It’s easy to get. We’ve all seen ghosts under the mask of John Schmidt. To be honest, I don’t want to be like that."
"If you can't even make a decision for your own life, everything you say is empty talk." Dior took a deep look at Bucky and replied.
Leaving such a word, Dior took the stone ghost face in his hand and left the tavern.
Bucky looked at the back of him leaving, his thoughts spread.
To be honest, in the military camp, Dior is not a very popular existence. Although he is very good as a soldier, his indifference and even selfishness have always made him a little incompatible with other soldiers.Even Gabe, the most active mouth-cutter in the camp, would become quiet when meeting him.
"Why did Dior leave again?"
"Leave him alone, he wouldn't be able to stay with us since he got the mask."
"I heard that his mask was taken from the Hydra base. We have used the weapons we got from Hydra before. Would you say that this mask really exists as he said? Some kind of mysterious power?"
"Do you really believe it?" Putting down the empty wine glass in his hand, Jim hit a big alcoholic burp and replied drunkly: "If there is really any mysterious power, this mask will not be in his hand. In there."
"Right."
Hearing Jim’s answer, the soldier couldn’t help but nodded. Indeed, even the weapons they brought from the Hydra base were taken away by the strategic science department for research. If this mask is really like this It's amazing, it's impossible to keep it in Dior's hands.
Withdrawing his gaze, Jim shook his head and was about to go there, turning his head to see Steve coming in with his head held high.
"Hey, Captain!"
"Captain America is here~"
"Let us offer a drink to the captain!"
