American Comics: Starting with Muggle Wizards

The atmosphere within the Avengers fleet grew increasingly tense.

A major battle is about to break out, and Tony, despite having dark circles under his eyes, is still outwitting and outmaneuvering Hydra's artificial intelligence.

"Shit! Hydra's weak AI isn't very intelligent yet, so they can still control the situation for now."

"But one day, weak artificial intelligence will evolve into strong artificial intelligence."

"If a powerful artificial intelligence that can wield immense influence in the online world were to betray us, who could stop it?"

Chapter 171 Appalachian Mountains

Upon learning of Tony's concerns, Dr. Banner shook his head and retorted, "We have to defeat Hydra's artificial intelligence before we're qualified to criticize them."

Tony Stark is physically and mentally exhausted from the intense battle against cyber intrusions.

From initial confidence to now shifting from offense to defense.

Jarvis's satellite network firewall was about to be breached by the enemy.

Tony made a tough decision, putting Jarvis into "sleep" again and promptly disconnecting the satellite network connection to prevent Hydra's artificial intelligence from finding the fleet's exact location through the network.

"Phew... I returned to the solar system with great ambition, only to be dealt a crushing blow by Hydra!"

"I'm starting to worry about whether this plan to counterattack the solar system will go smoothly."

Dr. Banner reassured him, "Don't worry, if we lose at the cyber level, we can eliminate the enemy physically."

Tony Stark glanced at him and said expressionlessly, "Since the time of natural disasters, most of the nuclear weapons stockpiled by countries around the world have been destroyed for various reasons."

"Before we left the solar system, we also completely destroyed all nuclear weapons and technical data."

"But Hydra had ample technological reserves and personnel, and it also seized several nuclear facilities that it could not destroy in the early stages of the war."

"Hydra now possesses a large number of nuclear weapons, except for Carroll, who is confident he can escape a saturation attack by intercontinental ballistic nuclear missiles."

"Does anyone dare say they are not afraid of nuclear missiles?"

Dr. Banner was speechless.

As the most terrifying weapon in human history, the giant fireworks cast a shadow over the hearts of all the Avengers.

At this point, Natasha successfully made contact with the agents lurking on Earth and obtained a lot of the latest publicly available intelligence from Hydra.

Pierce has become emperor, and can do whatever he wants. I don't eat beef-style dictatorship.

Not only does it use force to suppress the world, but it also abandons its allies after achieving its goals, emulating capitalists in their ruthless exploitation of ordinary people.

Waves of resistance swept across the world, with ordinary people in many countries and regions trying every means to resist Hydra's dictatorial rule.

However, Hydra has a large number of vampires under its command, as well as superhumans injected with Extremis serum and sub-super soldier serum.

Thus, a ruling system built upon a large number of superhumans continued smoothly for six months.

Even if some rebels occasionally emerge, they are quickly suppressed by the superhumans sent by Hydra.

The harshest punishments were inflicted on those who resisted, which made Hydra's rule increasingly secure.

After learning about the latest intelligence on Hydra through an online meeting, the Avengers began to formulate a specific attack plan.

This includes choosing a landing site, anticipating Hydra's possible actions, and establishing a solid base.

Develop a comprehensive plan.

The entire fleet slowly accelerated, broke through the atmosphere, and landed at the designated location, which was the desolate Canadian mountains.

Half an hour later.

One after another, massive spaceships, as large as small mountains, landed in the icy Appalachian Mountains.

Steve was still wearing his red and blue striped combat suit and A-frame helmet when he jumped out of the open hatch.

A biting cold wind howled past, but for his superhuman physique, this low temperature was like a gentle breeze.

"Whoo~"

When Steve spoke, he exhaled a lot of white mist.

"It seems quite cold outside. The agents need to move quickly, otherwise I'm worried their bodies won't be able to handle it."

Natasha stepped out of the hatch of another spaceship and shivered as she felt the biting cold wind.

He joked on the communication channel, "Hey, I'm freezing, can you walk faster?"

Then Professor Charles of the X-Men, Colossus, Wolverine, Shadowcat, Mystique, and others also shivered from the cold in this continuous snowfield.

Clint, carrying a bow and arrow, led the way and explained the details of the secret base.

"This mountain base was left over from the former S.H.I.E.L.D. era. After S.H.I.E.L.D. was disbanded, the base was temporarily abandoned."

“Until the Avengers left Earth, Commander Nick Fury secretly stored a large amount of supplies in this base.”

"The entire base is located inside the mountain, with a total of ten floors, enough to store a million tons of supplies and support the survival of 100,000 people."

"This base will be our main base from now on. There is also a secret weapons depot 300 kilometers away from here."

"With sufficient supplies and weapons, we can develop quickly as long as we recruit enough people."

Tony Stark interjected with a touch of humor, "That is, provided Hydra doesn't come after us."

Fifteen large spaceships brought with them a large 3D manufacturing plant and many other mechanical equipment.

The Avengers had barely returned to Earth and before they could even unleash their full power, they were already forced to help the 3000 accompanying agents move heavy equipment.

After working for more than ten hours, we moved from 3 pm to 7 am the next morning.

All the cargo was finally moved inside the mountain base.

The Avengers and X-Men members were all exhausted.

It took me a long time to recover.

But without their help and without heavy lifting equipment, it would probably have taken several months to manually move those mechanical devices that weighed nearly 100 tons.

So, to save time, we'll just have to tire out the Avengers and X-Men.

At that moment, a beam of golden light streaked across the top of the snow-capped mountain.

Captain Marvel, Carol Danvers, returned to Earth four months early and has been leading the resistance against Hydra in Canada.

Upon learning that the Avengers had returned to Earth, she immediately came to this mountain base.

Inside the conference room, the chandelier flickered, casting an intermittent light.

This is because the large arc reactor has just been restarted, and its output power is still unstable.

However, none of the people in the conference room would care about such a small problem as the lighting.

"Ms. Carol, how is the resistance currently doing?"

Tony Stark inquired about the situation of the rebels.

Carol's expression was serious: "It's bad. Due to natural disasters, the world's climate often experiences abnormal weather."

"It's May now, but Canada has already entered the depths of winter."

"It is unknown how long this abnormal weather will last."

"In addition, the resistance forces suffered from shortages of supplies, a lack of confidence, and outdated weapons... there were just too many problems."

"If Pierce hadn't implemented a dictatorship, allowing more ordinary people at the bottom to see the true face of Hydra, the situation for the resistance would have been even more difficult."

"At least now I can occasionally get help from ordinary people, and I can barely make ends meet."

"But given enough time, the resistance will probably collapse on its own, even without Hydra's encirclement and suppression."

When everyone heard how difficult the lives of the rebels were, their faces turned grim.

Nick Fury, who was best at allocating resources and commanding the overall situation, did not come to this counter-offensive plan.

Chapter 172 Unleashing a Wave of Resistance

Black Egg needs to be stationed in the Beta Galaxy, the rear base of the New Humans.

Therefore, this counterattack against Hydra can only rely on the Avengers and X-Men working together to find ways to solve various problems.

Natasha calmly said, "This base has a large amount of supplies, which should be enough for the resistance to hold out for a while."

"Next, we'll figure out how to take over Hydra's territory and then develop slowly. There's no need to worry too much."

Carol shook her head and said, "Because of the climate, food can be grown in areas other than the equator."

"Like the former central United States, the weather is extremely abnormal, and it is still covered in snow and ice, although the temperature is not as low as -30°C in Canada."

"However, many regions are no longer suitable for growing food, and it is difficult to obtain sufficient food by relying solely on greenhouses and indoor ecological farming."

"Therefore, the world's food resources are simply not enough for the 30 billion people living on Earth."

"Even if we manage to seize Hydra's territory, it means that some of our people will starve to death."

"Because Hydra doesn't care about the lives of ordinary people at the bottom."

Tony Stark was speechless upon hearing this.

"In other words, before we can launch a counterattack against Hydra, we still need to find a way to solve the food problem?"

Dr. Banner frowned and said, "We can go to Chaidar to buy the advanced civilization's artificial starch synthesis technology, or buy nutrient solution technology."

Carol nodded. "This is a good idea. It solves the food problem. All we have to do is hold off those few experts from the Avengers."

"Then, by gradually eliminating a large number of vampires and superhumans under Hydra, we can take back Hydra's territory step by step."

Professor Charles is more concerned about the current situation of his old rival, Magneto's Brotherhood.

Carol replied, "It seems the Brotherhood has recently gotten into a feud with those mysterious wizards in New York."

"Magneto led 100,000 soldiers and numerous mutant subordinates to besiege the territory of those wizards."

"But they were swept aside by the Flame Witch and the Scarlet Witch, and the mysterious male witch didn't even have to make a move."

"Having suffered this blow, the fraternity has been much quieter lately and is rarely active in the outside world."

"However, the Brotherhood doesn't seem to have given up yet, and is mobilizing a large army to prepare for the next siege."

After listening, Natasha asked, "Do we have a chance to get involved? If we can get the support of those mysterious wizards, it will be very beneficial to the growth of the resistance."
