Superman

Chapter 9 One Test, Two Soldiers

"General Patton once said,'War depends on weapons, but victory depends on soldiers'! We can definitely win this battle because we have the best soldiers!"

"The Strategic Science Corps is made up of alliances of various countries. The elites of the free world have gathered here! Our goal is to build the strongest army ever! And all armies have a leader!"

"After this week, we will elect that person!"

"He will be the first super soldier!"

"Similarly, he will personally send Adolf Hitler to hell!"

"..."

At the end of the two-week training of recruits, Colonel Phillips finally announced the selection plan for the "super soldier".

Holding Carter's score sheet in his hand, he looked at Luke, who was tall and tall.

This young man in Brooklyn is still doing well as always.

Judging from the physical fitness and the overall performance of each training project, among the recruits in the Caspian Training Camp, they are the first place.

This is the super soldier the country needs!

Colonel Phillips thought with satisfaction.

Then, he inadvertently saw the thin and short Rogers and sighed helplessly.

Despite the serious training of the other party, he never lazy.

However, his natural weak physique makes him a qualified soldier, which is somewhat difficult.

"I don't know what Erskine is thinking!"

Colonel Phillips was a little annoyed.

He was under pressure from the committee and the sight of the White House.

If the "super soldier" can't satisfy the military, then his official career has come to an end.

We must know that to form a strategic scientific army, countries have invested a lot of manpower and material resources.

Now everyone is waiting for the result!

"Super soldier..."

After finishing the training, the team disbanded in place.

Many recruits have fiery eyes and are chanting the word.

"Boss Luke! Your performance should be the best among all recruits. You must be the super soldier!"

Back in the barracks, Gilmer Hodge, who had been taught by Carter, said flatly.

In the original plot, he can be regarded as a passerby negative character.

He often relied on his big size and hard fists, and bullied the thin Rogers when he was fine.

However, things changed after Luke arrived.

Hodge, who tried to gain satisfaction by bullying the weak, encountered Waterloo for the first time in his life.

The night before the Caspian training camp, Hodge, the villain, planned to make Rogers fun, but Luke put his head in the toilet.

He thinks that he is hard enough to fist, he has beaten gangsters, hacked gangs, and brushed the house. Luke, who has a rich life experience, is like a sheep meeting a lion, without the ability to resist.

From then on, no one among the recruits dared to provoke the Brooklyn duo.

As for Hodge, who was stuffed into the toilet, he became Luke's faithful dogleg.

Every day after the horse is saddled, he calls it the boss, like licking a dog!

Luke once wondered if this guy had a tendency to be abused, or if his head was stuffed into the toilet.

But later I realized that bullies like Hodge who bully and fear hardship often believe in the simple thinking of "big fist is the last word."

Therefore, this kind of performance is normal.

All in all, Luke seemed to have opened the King of Soldier template, and unconsciously succeeded in dominating the entire Caspian training camp.

Not only did Colonel Phillips admire him very much, but he greeted him everywhere in the barracks.

"Use your head to think about it. If the conditions for selecting super soldiers are training performance and strong muscles, then why doesn't the military choose directly from the army!"

Luke didn't have a good face with Hodge.

After all, licking a dog has nothing!

"Yes, yes, boss Luke makes sense!"

Hodge smiled while cleaning the barracks.

"Steve, don't be discouraged! I think Dr. Erskine is very optimistic about you!"

Dismissing Hodge, who had pleased himself, Luke walked up to Rogers.

The future Captain America is a little frustrated at this time.

He saw Luke's excellent performance, and then think of his poor results, inevitably a little depressed.

"I never thought of becoming a super soldier, but I began to wonder if it was the right choice to choose to join the army? Maybe Bucky made sense. If you can't bet on some things, giving up is also a kind of courage!"

Rogers seemed to be at the bottom of his life, his tone full of uncertainty.

Through these days of training, he finally realized how weak he was.

"I don't think so! Dr. Erskine will fancy you and enlist you into the army. It must be to discover some outstanding qualities from you that are worth training! Confidence is the secret of success. Don't be let down by temporary setbacks. Beat! A golden character is more worth having than strong muscles..."

Luke brought up a bowl of steaming chicken soup for the soul, filled Rogers' eyes with high spirits.

If you continue to work hard and say a few more inspirational quotes from later generations, maybe Captain America will regard him as a spiritual mentor.

"So, if you read more marketing articles, you can still learn something."

Luke breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Rogers's mood returning to a state of full vitality.

After all, Captain America is an important part of his plan.

During the two-week recruit training, Luke made no secret of his performance and achieved excellent results.

Naturally to get the super soldier serum!

only!

He did not intend to put on the Stars and Stripes uniform and take over the seat of Captain America!

"Even if I become a super soldier, I will inevitably be used as a mascot by politicians in the back! I don't want to perform on stage and make my debut as an idol!"

Luke's thinking is very clear.

The military studies super soldier serum.

The real purpose is to form an invincible and powerful army.

In this way, we can drive straight into Berlin and end the war.

According to the development of the original plot, Dr. Erskine was finally assassinated, the only specimen was destroyed, and the formula of the super soldier serum was lost.

Rogers, as the only super soldier, is far less useful on the battlefield than as a mascot to sell national bonds—that's what those politicians think.

If Luke replaces Rogers and wears a Stars and Stripes uniform, his ending will probably be similar.

If you change your approach, save Dr. Erskine.

Next, the super soldiers are mass-produced.

Luke still won't have any future, because he is no longer the special one.

Therefore, after repeated consideration.

Luke decided to show his good side and strive to win the appreciation of Colonel Phillips and put more pressure on Dr. Erskine.

When there are two suitable candidates, maybe the development of the story will be different.

...

...

When it got dark, Erskine found Luke resting.

The German scientist directly pointed out his intentions.

"Col. Phillips thinks you are the best candidate for a super soldier, Luke, what do you think of yourself?"

Feeling the scrutiny gaze, Luke's face was calm, and his heartbeat remained steady.

"The condition of a super soldier should not be a strong figure! But knowing compassion and having a heart of awe!"

Luke answered decisively without hesitation.

He could see that Dr. Erskine was testing himself.

The right person in the opponent's mind is always Rogers.

After the "Red Skull" incident, the German scientist had a psychological shadow.

Even if Luke performed well, he would not be as impressed by Erskine himself as Rogers said in the draft station.

"Then do you think anyone in the training camp meets such conditions?"

Erskine pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and asked hesitantly.

"My friend! Steve Rogers! His character is totally trustworthy!"

Luke's eyes were firm, as if he thought so in his heart.

Hearing this satisfactory answer, the last trace of suspicion in Erskine's eyes disappeared without a trace.

Originally, he still had a grudge against Luke's involvement in the gang, and he was most likely to have blood on his hands.

Fear that after the opponent becomes a super soldier, he will lose his humanity like a red skull!

This is because of the effectiveness of serum.

The better the good, the worse the bad!

"well!"

Erskine patted Luke hard on the shoulder and smiled approvingly.

Originally, he and Colonel Phillips had totally different ideas, and no one could convince anyone.

But Luke's answer completely dispelled Erskine's doubts.

He solemnly said: "You two will be super soldiers!"
