American comics: Becoming the god of technology from Osborn

Chapter 73 I had no choice before, now I want to be a good person (third update)

"Where are you going?"

Bucky asked, looking at Hive curiously as he was about to walk towards the ruins of the broadcasting building.

"Go find Harry Osborn's body. If he dies, my mission will be completed and I won't have to stay in this place."

Hive replied without turning around.

"We didn't see Harry escape just now. No one can survive the explosion just now. He must be dead."

Buggy said as he looked at Hive's back, wondering in his mind if he could kill Hive here and now.

At this moment, Hive was not very wary of Buggy and had its back to him. If he suddenly attacked at this time, he might be able to kill Hive in front of him.

But how much significance would it have in killing just a shell of a beehive?

"The power of the hive consciousness is too difficult to deal with. If I cannot ensure that this body is the only carrier of the hive in the outside world, acting rashly will only expose myself..."

After thinking for a while, Bucky finally gave up fighting with Hive here.

Anyway, he is not the only one here, and he has more important tasks to complete.

Whenever he thought of this task, he couldn't help but sigh at how bold Harry's idea was.

Bucky stood up and walked in the opposite direction of the Hive.

Not long after, Bucky arrived at the building where Pierce and Ward were.

"Winter Soldier, you're back, where's Hive?"

Pierce frowned slightly when he saw that only Bucky had returned but Hive was missing.

"The Hive is searching for the body of Harry Osborn."

Bucky told the truth.

"That's good. Although it's impossible for Harry to survive the explosion just now, seeing the body will indeed make people feel more at ease."

Pierce nodded in understanding.

At this time, Bucky looked around and found that only Pierce and Ward were there.

"Agent Ward, your duty is to protect the safety of the commander, but why do I only see you here?"

Bucky's face turned cold and he quickly walked towards Ward and questioned him.

"I'm sorry. I failed in my duty."

Ward said apologetically.

"Don't worry about such a small matter. I specifically told Ward not to bring too many people with me. My departure from Washington is a secret operation. The fewer people who know about my itinerary, the safer I will be..."

Pierce subconsciously waved his hand, telling Bucky not to take it to heart.

The next second after he blurted it out, Pierce's eyes suddenly widened, and a sense of warning rose from the bottom of his heart.

"When did the Winter Soldier ever question someone else's duty?"

"Stop, Winter Soldier, I tell you to stop!"

Pierce, realizing something was wrong, immediately ordered Bucky to stop, but it was too late, Bucky was already very close to Ward.

Pierce's reaction made Ward realize that there was something wrong with the Winter Soldier, and he immediately wanted to take out his weapon to attack Bucky.

But with the distance between them, how could he be a match for Buggy?

"I'm not the Winter Soldier, I'm Bucky Barnes!"

puff!
There was a flash of silver light, and Bucky's mechanical arm instantly pierced through Ward's chest, with his fist protruding from his back.

"Why...you...scan..."

Ward stared at Bucky in disbelief, wanting to ask something, but he only said a few halting words before unwillingly taking his last breath.

Bucky swung his arm, threw Ward's body away, and walked towards Pierce with murderous intent.

"желание(desire)ржавчина(rust)семнадцать(seventeen)..."

He trembled as he muttered the ten brainwashing secret words to Bucky, trying to regain control of Bucky.

The imagined scene of Bucky holding his head and howling in pain, and then turning back into the Winter Soldier after a struggle, did not happen. Bucky did not even blink.

Pierce was so frightened that he retreated again and again until he reached the edge of the rooftop and stopped when he had nowhere to retreat.

"Winter Soldier… No! Bucky Barnes! What do you want to do?"

"What do I want to do?"

Bucky walked up to Pierce and stopped, glaring at him angrily.

"Over the years, you have manipulated my mind and made me help you kill so many people? How much innocent blood is stained on my hands? Now you ask me what I want to do?"

In a rage, Bucky grabbed Pierce by the collar, lifted him up with one hand, and placed him on the outer edge of the roof.

"I didn't have a choice before, now I just want to be myself!"

The Broadcasting House, once the headquarters of one of the largest television stations in New York, is a very famous landmark building on Manhattan Island.

Unfortunately, it has now become a ruin.

The Hive controlled dozens of parasites to search for Harry's body in the ruins.

It has been searching here for a while, but still has no results.

After all, it was not Harry who died here, but Harry's bionic substitute.

"Are you the Hive?"

Suddenly, a voice came from above the hive.

Hive looked up and saw a stranger wearing red armor and riding a flying vehicle appear in front of him.

The person who came was Jordan, a member of the terrorist squad. Each terrorist member's standard armor was painted in a different color, and Jordan's armor was red.

The black-clad bodyguard who followed Harry's stand-in into the broadcasting building was actually Jordan. His task was to try his best to cover Bucky and help him by the way.

Bucky gave up attacking the Hive just now because he knew that Jordan was hiding in the dark and would help him solve the Hive's problem.

"Who are you? How do you know my name?"

Hive asked, staring at Jordan curiously.

"I'm not obliged to answer your questions. All you need to know is that you're the Hive. But seeing how ugly you are, it's unlikely that I'd be mistaken."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jordan threw two pumpkin bombs at the beehive.

Seeing this thing, Hive immediately understood who the mysterious man was, he was from the Osborn Group's Terrorist Squad.

Pierce had told the Hive some information about the pumpkin bomb. It knew that this thing looked small but was extremely powerful, so it quickly controlled the tentacle parasites all over its body to spread out.

"It even knows how to hide. This bug is quite smart."

Jordan grinned. "Sorry, I didn't bring anything with me today to deal with you. I only have pumpkin bombs."

Jordan just moved his hands towards both ends of the aircraft, and a small cover at the front of the aircraft opened automatically. A pumpkin bomb popped out from it, with just enough elasticity for Jordan to hold it easily.

Immediately afterwards, Jordan seemed to have turned into a bomber, throwing pumpkin bombs like crazy.

boom! boom! boom! boom!
The high temperature and shock waves caused by the simultaneous explosion of multiple pumpkin bombs instantly made the already fragmented ruins even more fragmented, and there were even vague signs of a secondary collapse.

The Hive originally wanted to disperse itself and hide under the fragments of the ruins, sneaking away through the cracks, but there were too many pumpkin bombs and the explosion range was too wide, so the parasites were burned to ashes before they could escape.

At least two-thirds of the parasites died in the explosion, and Jordan continued to throw pumpkin bombs.

"What a difficult fellow! He opened fire on me as soon as he saw me, not giving me any chance to get close to him. There were no humans around that I could parasitize..."

Hive thought for a moment and realized that even if he could escape from here, he would be seriously injured and only one in ten parasites would survive.

"Forget it. Harry Osborn is unlikely to be alive anyway. There's no need for me to stay here any longer. I might as well just go back to the underwater lair."

With a change of thought, the consciousness of the hive separated from the parasites in the ruins and moved to a nest far under the Indian Ocean.

"Huh? All of these reptiles suddenly stopped moving?"

Jordan was shocked to find that the group of parasites that were fleeing frantically suddenly stopped moving, as if they were dead.

"It seems that I have forced the hive consciousness back. My mission is accomplished. Tsk, the hive's vitality is really tenacious. If it escapes later, my pumpkin bombs will be used up."

After burning all the parasites in the ruins, Jordan flew away from the scene in a flying vehicle.
