American Comic Dimensional Trading Device

If it were Josie herself, she would definitely consider Xia Country as her hometown.

But coming from Lyndon's mouth, it can only be something else entirely.

"Bavarian or Austria?" Josie asked thoughtfully.

It will be available tomorrow at 12 noon. Hope you all will support it!

Chapter 81 Abnormality

Josie's question—whether it's Bavaria or Austria, rather than Germany and Austria—is actually quite nuanced.

To later generations, Bavaria seems to have always belonged to Germany and had little to do with Austria.

In fact, since the Holy Roman Empire, Bavaria has always been a staunch supporter of the Austrian Habsburg family. It was only with the demise of the Holy Roman Empire, the continuous decline of the Habsburg family, and the rise of France and the Prussian Federation that Bavaria gradually drifted away from Austria.

Even though they belong to two different countries, Bavaria still feels closer to Austria in terms of religion, national sentiment, and other aspects.

Both sides consider each other as family.

Even in the 21st century, calls for Bavaria to become independent or join Austria have not ceased.

In short, the relationship between the two families is complex and difficult to unravel.

Josie's ancestors were from Austria, and Linden was from Bavaria, so the hometown they were referring to could only be one of those two families.

As for northern Germany, it is not within the scope of their "homeland's" understanding.

“Of course it’s Austria, since most of Bavaria is now under the control of Hydra,” Lyndon Schneider said.

In Josie's previous life, Bavaria was Germany's rear area and was once known as the "wolf's lair."

However, in this Marvel-dominated world, the first thing Red Skull did after standing upright was to seize this important strategic region and attempt to establish his own Hydra empire with Austria as its core.

Therefore, Bavaria and Austria are no longer under Mustache's control, but under Red Skull's control.

Josie could basically guess why the other party would come knocking on her door at this particular point in time.

Originally, these people wouldn't have been too anxious about the defeat of the Little Mustache, because the Red Skull's power was greater than that of the Little Mustache.

But just last month, Hydra suffered a major defeat on the front lines against the Russians.

The reason was that Captain America led the Howling Commandos to parachute behind Hydra's lines, destroying Hydra's important supply lines and frontline military factories. This news had spread throughout the Allied forces, and Captain America's reputation among the Allies had risen even higher.

Because of this great victory, the Russian bear has launched a full-scale counter-offensive and is approaching the Balkans.

Clearly, the Austrians had realized that Red Skull was just as unreliable as Mustache and were starting to look for a way out.

For the Austrians, the best way out was undoubtedly the Allied forces, not the Soviet Union.

"So where is he?" Josie asked, nodding.

“It’s her, she’s staying at the Ritz Hotel right now!” Lyndon replied.

"Her?" Josie was somewhat surprised to hear this.

“That’s right, her name is Ophelia Salkistan, a very young and beautiful lady!” Lyndon shrugged.

"You're bewitched by her?" Josie asked, frowning. He knew exactly what kind of pervert Lyndon was. Could he have been seduced by her beauty?

"No, no, no, boss, don't worry, I know which women I should touch and which I shouldn't!" Lyndon quickly reassured Josie, seeing through her thoughts.

“That would be best… Here’s what we’ll do: bring her to see me tomorrow afternoon!” Josie looked Lyndon up and down with a suspicious gaze before saying this.

Lyndon's assurance only made Josie more suspicious.

“Yes, boss!” Lyndon agreed repeatedly.

“Let’s go, take the money!” Josie nodded, gesturing for him to leave.

Lyndon nodded, picked up the box of money, and hurriedly left.

Looking in the direction he left, Josie couldn't help but seem thoughtful.

He then got up, closed the study door, and initiated a communication request to Yuri.

"What is it, Josie? This isn't the agreed time yet, and I'm very busy." After a short while, Yuri, wearing a protective suit, appeared on the other side, clearly conducting some high-risk biological experiment.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Yuri, but I do have something urgent that I need your help with,” Josie said apologetically. “Do you have any equipment that can detect whether a person is being mind-controlled and how to prevent mind control?”

"Huh? You've run into a telepath?" Yuri asked, somewhat surprised by Josie's words.

“I don’t know yet, I just have this suspicion!” Josie explained. He hadn’t been too wary of mind manipulation abilities before, because there weren’t many people like that in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The most typical ones were Wanda and Vision, but those two didn’t appear until at least seventy years later.

In the X-Men series, however, mind control is already a very common ability.

However, after Josie learned that this was the Marvel universe, she had the Blackwater gang inquire and found that there was no such group as mutants, and there were no children or wealthy families in New York who could match Charles Xavier.

So Josh had been a bit careless about this before.

But Lyndon's performance today made Josh realize the necessity of taking precautions in this regard.

“Of course I do, but you didn’t mention it before, so I thought you didn’t need it.” Yuri shrugged. “Wait a moment, I’m going to disinfect myself and change my clothes.”

"Of course, but may I ask what you're researching right now?" Josie nodded, then asked with a hint of curiosity.

"Oh, nothing special, just some prehistoric viruses I just discovered, and I'm trying to increase their lethality," Yuri said nonchalantly.

But Josie, on the other side, couldn't help but swallow a few times.

Only then did he realize that the big shot opposite him was also a master of viruses.

In the game, Yuri's faction possesses biological weapons of mass destruction such as virus snipers and neural assault vehicles.

Fortunately, the trading system ensures that the traded items do not carry any non-trading substances, such as viruses or bacteria, without the permission of the trading parties.

Otherwise, Josie might not dare to make the trade.

Yuri acted quickly, and reappeared on the trading device's communication screen a dozen minutes later.

At the same time, he also had three more items in his hands.

One is a cylindrical metal object that looks like a pen, much like the memory eraser from Men in Black.

The other two items were a helmet and a potion.

“This is called Revelation. Press the switch, and it scans the person. If there are signs of mind control, the light on it will turn red; otherwise, it will turn green. This helmet is an anti-mind control helmet, which can block most mind control... unless the other party's mind control ability is hundreds of times stronger than mine. Finally, this is a mind immunity potion. Its effect is similar to the helmet, but it only lasts for about 12 hours, and there may be some adverse reactions such as nausea and vomiting. Of course, it's not absolute, but I still recommend you use the helmet.” Yuri introduced the functions of the pen-like object, the helmet, and the potion in order.

“I think I need some!” Josie said after a moment’s thought.

“No problem!” Yuri nodded.

Four chapters first, more after get off work.

Chapter 82 The Hydra Lady

The following afternoon, at the agreed time, a Bentley 1938L classic car appeared at the manor gate on time; it was Lyndon Schneider's car in England.

These so-called British luxury cars are actually worth very little these days. For Lyndon, who has helped Josie make a fortune in the past two months, they are nothing.

However, to Lyndon's surprise, the manor gates did not open... In the past, the guards at the gates would open them on their own initiative when they saw his car.

Confused, Lyndon instinctively honked the horn twice.

But still no guards came out to open the door.

Just as Lyndon realized something was wrong and was about to get out of the car to check the situation, the small door next to the main gate opened, and six of his familiar bodyguards, including Vito and Brooke, filed out of the school gate, subtly surrounding the car. Behind them were two muscular maids.

"What happened, Brooke?" Seeing this, Lyndon rolled down the car window and asked Brooke, puzzled.

“Nothing has happened, Lyndon. The boss has been waiting for a long time. But before you see the boss, please get out of the car with the lady in the back for our inspection!” Brooke said.

"What? Are you kidding me? Since when do I need to be checked when I see the boss?" Lyndon said, somewhat surprised and angry.

“This is the boss’s order, Mr. Schneider. Please get out of the car with that lady,” Vito said bluntly from the other side, his hand already reaching for his lower back.

"Madam, what do you think?" Seeing that Brooke and Vito were serious, Lyndon Schneider turned to the person in the back seat and asked with some helplessness.

"Hehe, this Mr. Kahn is quite cautious. In that case, let's get out of the car!" A clear female voice rang out from the back seat.

Then the driver's side door and the rear door opened one after the other, and Lyndon obediently got out of the driver's seat.

A tall, slender, and delicate blonde young woman wearing a bright green leather coat stepped out of the back seat.

She was Ophelia Salkistan, the "hometown" Lyndon had mentioned to Josie.

After Ophelia got out of the car, she first glanced at Vito and his group of six, then turned her gaze to the distant manor, giving a charming smile to a window of one of the buildings.

Inside the window, Josie, who was observing the situation from afar with binoculars, felt a jolt when she saw the woman's attire, and a title suddenly flashed into her mind.

Lady Hydra!

But Josie immediately frowned.

Has Madame Hydra ever appeared in the Avengers movies?

There probably isn't a movie, but there does seem to be a spin-off series, probably in a season of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Josie can't quite remember the specifics, but if he's not mistaken, that Hydra Madam is just a derivative personality created by a female android using the Dark Book in a virtual world, and essentially has nothing to do with the real Hydra Madam in the comics.

However, in the X-Men series, there was a Viper who resembled Madame Hydra in The Wolverine.

But if it's that one, wouldn't that overturn Josie's previous belief that there are no mutants in this world?

It can only be said that before Josie traveled through time, he hadn't watched many spin-off series besides the Avengers movie series. Otherwise, he would have known that a Hydra lady appeared in the latest "The Falcon and the Winter Soldier" series.
