Chapter 131 Steve and Peggy's Reunion

Hearing the burly man's complaints, John Schmidt scoffed, "That's just your stupidity. If Lynn Hall were really as powerful as you say, why hasn't he come looking for me?"

John Schmidt's voice had barely faded when Lynn Hall's voice suddenly rang out from the crowd: "That's because I want to know what your true purpose is!"

Upon hearing Lynn Hall's voice, the burly man who had just been complaining to Red Skull immediately turned around and looked behind him.

The group of men who had been following behind him suddenly raised their hands and pressed them against their faces.

Then, one by one, the electronic masks were peeled off their faces.

As the electronic mask was removed, the burly man was shocked to discover that all his men had somehow become FBI agents, including Lynn Hall.

Seeing this, the burly man was about to raise his submachine gun when he was riddled with bullets by the FBI agent.

Upon seeing the burly man's gruesome death, John Schmidt glanced at his body with disdain before asking Lynn, "You're Lynn Hall? Ha, since arriving in this era, I've heard many people mention you."

"They always say how amazing you are, how much control you have over New York, and now I admit they're right!"

"But when did you find me?"

"The third day after the Red Tank Incident!"

Looking at John Schmidt before him, Lynn stepped forward and said, "At first, I thought the spacetime rift only brought Laurent and the other person from over seventy years ago to the present, but I didn't expect you to be brought to this era as well!"

As he spoke, Lynn snapped his fingers lightly, and the next second, the researchers who had been crouching on the ground in fear instantly stood up and took out their pistols, aiming them at Red Skull's head.

Seeing the actions of the researchers behind him, Red Skull was slightly surprised: "Did you send them too?"

"Of course, I've always been curious about your purpose in recruiting so many researchers and purchasing all sorts of sophisticated instruments."

"So I sent someone from the FBI's research department to investigate. You could say that from the moment you recruited your first physicist, your every move has been under my surveillance!"

"What I didn't expect was that you were building a time machine!"

As Lynn was speaking, Steve, who had sneaked in from outside, came out as well: "Lynn, I didn't expect this place to be... Red Skull?"

The moment Steve saw John Schmidt's face, he instinctively gripped his shield tighter.

"Captain America, Steve Rogers!"

Upon seeing Captain America, John Schmidt's eyes instantly sharpened.

Although his final battle with Steve Rogers had not yet taken place in his time.

But now he knows how he failed back then!

"How could people be so calm after meeting again, 'old acquaintances' from over seventy years ago?"

Swinging down the rope from the warehouse, Natasha came to Lynn's side and shrugged, saying, "I thought they'd fight as soon as they met!"

"A battle? Ha..."

Hearing Natasha's teasing, John Schmidt reached out and slowly peeled off the human skin mask from his face.

Natasha snorted in disgust as she looked at the Red Skull revealing its red skull.

After Red Skull threw the human skin mask on the ground, he looked at the people present and said, "This is your territory. I will not set up the arena here."

"Lynn Hall, I admit your control over New York has exceeded my expectations, but..."

There's something you might not know: time machines aren't just the ones I had them build!

As soon as he finished speaking, a white light flashed throughout the warehouse, and a time vortex appeared beneath Red Skull, Natasha, and Steve, sucking the three of them in.

Upon seeing this, Lynn immediately grabbed Steve and Natasha, and then tried to use teleportation to take them away.

However, the powerful suction force also pulled Lynn into the time vortex.

As the light faded, Red Skull, Lynn Hall, Natasha, and Steve disappeared from the warehouse, leaving only Sean and his group inside.

Seeing that everything around them had returned to calm, Sean and his friends were not anxious about Lynn's disappearance.

He took out his phone and dialed Tony Stark's number. "Mr. Stark," he said, "the boss and Captain Rogers have been taken away by the time machine."

"You can proceed as planned!"

Upon hearing Sean's words on the other end of the phone, Tony Stark hung up and turned to Bruce Banner, saying, "The plan can begin!"

"I wonder if Lynn and the others went to the future or back to the past. If they went back to the past, I hope Steve won't stay away because he misses Aunt Peggy!"

Upon hearing Tony's words, Banner calculated his weight and then pressed the button on the machine in front of him.

September 1941, outside Camp Lehigh, Virginia.

Looking at the military camp ahead, a hint of nostalgia flashed in Steve's eyes: "I was assigned here for training after I enlisted. I never thought I would come back here one day."

"By the way, Lynn, Red Skull shouldn't have noticed anything amiss, right?"

"Probably not!"

Before Lynn could answer Steve's question, Natasha chimed in, "Hopefully Tony will be more reliable this time. I don't want to be stuck in the past, and I don't want to see the future Strange saw using the Time Stone come to pass!"

Two weeks ago, when Lynn and his team were studying the prophetic tablets, Stephen Strange came to their door.

According to him, the spacetime rift appeared because after the Time Administration Bureau of this universe was destroyed, people from other multiverse Time Administration Bureaus entered this universe, thus causing a new branch to be born in the timeline.

The Illuminati will resolve the spacetime rift problem in the previous timeline.

However, the timeline in which Red Skull exists was altered after he was transported away by a time rift, creating a new time rift.

If this time rift cannot be completely resolved, history will undergo earth-shattering changes, which will definitely affect the timeline in which Lynn and his companions live.

This was originally supposed to be a mission for the Time Bureau, but the Time Bureau has been destroyed by Cassandra.

So if you don't want to wake up to find your surroundings completely changed.

Therefore, it would be best if the Illuminati could go back in time and resolve the matter completely, and they must also ensure that they return to the same timeline as Red Skull!

This is why Lynn and his friends were taken away by the time machine along with Red Skull.

Otherwise, given Lynn's abilities, how could he possibly be unable to rescue Steve and Natasha?

Looking at the red dot on his wrist, displayed by the time rift detector made by Ultron and Tony, Lynn said to the two, "There are three time rifts in total, one of which is right here in the military camp."

"However, the fluctuation frequency of this spacetime rift is not much different from that of the other rift, so the monster that Strange mentioned should not have appeared. The only one with a relatively large fluctuation should be in Poland according to the coordinates."

Let's address these two issues first!

Hearing Lynn say this, Steve looked up at the night sky and then said, "I'll go get three sets of military uniforms; that will make it easier for us to infiltrate!"

With that, Steve ran off into the darkness.

A dozen minutes later, inside the military camp.

Based on the coordinates of the red dot on the detector, the three quickly located the spacetime rift.

"That warehouse up ahead is the equipment battalion. The new recruits' weapons and equipment are all stored there. I remember the key is there."

"No need for a key!"

Taking a hair clip from her person, Natasha shrugged and said, "Lynn and I are professionals at this!"

Just then, a woman's voice suddenly rang out behind them: "Halt! Where did you three come from? There are only five majors in the camp. How come I didn't know there were three of you?"

Hearing the sound behind them, the three turned around and found Peggy Carter touching her gun with one hand while looking at them warily.

It seemed as if she would shoot the moment Lynn and the other two gave the wrong answer!

Upon hearing Peggy Carter's words, Lynn and Natasha both turned to look at Steve, speechless.

This guy definitely did it on purpose!

Steve paid no attention to Lynn and Natasha's gazes, instead looking at Peggy Carter with affection in his eyes.

"Peggy."

Upon seeing Steve call out Peggy's name, Natasha and Lynn exchanged a glance, then simultaneously took a step back.

Well, it's time not to disturb these two catching up!

"Who are you? Why do you know me?"

Despite Steve's emotional voice and gaze, Peggy Carter's hand on the gun didn't loosen. "I..."

Looking at Peggy with a complicated expression, Steve opened his mouth several times, but swallowed the words back down.

Upon seeing this, Lynn stepped forward and said to Peggy, "Ms. Carter, we are indeed not from this military camp. We are here on a secret mission!"

As he spoke, Lynn raised his hand and shook the Stark Industries logo on his wrist.

"You were sent by Howard? What is your purpose?"

Looking at the gleaming Stark Industries logo on Lynn's wrist, and the technology he had never seen before,

Although Peggy said this, her hands never left the gun.

"You can ask him about the specifics!"

Lynn gave Steve a push and said, "We still have things to take care of, so he's yours!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lynn vanished from his spot in an instant.

Peggy Carter's pupils contracted the instant Lynn disappeared.

She was now somewhat certain that these three people meant her no harm; otherwise, given the abilities Lynn had just displayed, she would have been no match for them.

Thinking of this, Peggy's gaze swept past Steve, whose eyes were filled with deep affection, and looked at Natasha.

"I don't know how to do that, and besides, I don't want to be the third wheel Lynn is talking about!"

After saying that, Natasha turned and ran towards the equipment camp.

Outside the equipment battalion.

"Click!"

Lynn and Natasha, who had just run over, easily unlocked the door in front of them and entered the equipment camp. They then began searching for the spacetime rift.

According to the display on the detector, the two quickly found the tiny, dimly lit spacetime rift in a corner of the equipment camp.

Looking at the spacetime rift, Lynn crouched down, took out a metal ball, and threw it in.

After the spacetime rift swallowed the metal sphere, it began to slowly shrink and finally disappeared in front of the two.

On the detector, only two of the three red dots remain.

"Did you deliberately create this opportunity for Steve to meet you?"

Looking at Lynn, Natasha said, "Otherwise, given your abilities, you wouldn't need to go through all this trouble!"

"As a friend, I'll help if I can. After all, we've all seen him standing in front of the easel all morning."

As he spoke, Lynn stood up and said, "Furthermore, Strange said we have to wait until that monster emerges from the spacetime rift, a process that will take about a week, before we can kill it and bring its body back. So the largest spacetime rift cannot be closed yet."

"I don't know what Strange wants the monster's corpse for, but there's no rush. I'll deal with the other dimensional rift first. We'll meet tomorrow at noon at the restaurant Steve mentioned, fifty kilometers away!"

"good!"

Nodding, Natasha watched Lynn disappear from her sight once again before getting up and walking outside.

At the same time, within Poland.

"A miracle, Mr. Schmidt, this is a miracle!"

Looking at the long tentacle constantly extending and retracting outwards from the time rift in front of him, Anim Zola pushed up his glasses and said excitedly.

Hearing Zola Botu's excited tone, John Schmidt said coldly, "In the future, I will see many more of the miracles you speak of."

"Zola, have the soldiers guard the area. Once the monster emerges from the spacetime rift, capture it for research."

As he spoke, Red Skull turned to look at his adjutant, who quickly handed him the three portraits of the man he had just described.

After taking the portrait and glancing at it, Red Skull said, "Well done. The three of them came back with me. Although I don't know where they are now, they should be around the spacetime rift."

"Have all soldiers search for these three men. Once they are found, besides Lynn Hall,..."

"Take out the other two immediately!"

"yes!"

Upon hearing Red Skull's words, the lieutenant immediately took the portrait and ran outside.

The next morning, at the agreed-upon restaurant.

As Natasha and Steve walked in, Lynn waved to them: "Lunch is ready for you. After you eat, we'll head to Poland."

Hearing Lynn say that, Natasha, sitting opposite him, pointed to a fighter jet outside the window: "Where did you get that fighter jet?"

"Of course I have my own way."

Lynn took a sip of his juice and laughed, "The three of us appeared around these two spacetime rifts, while Red Skull should have appeared around the largest spacetime rift, which is the Polish spacetime rift."

"Furthermore, since Poland was occupied by Germany in September 1939, it's almost certain that we'll encounter a large number of Hydra soldiers as soon as we enter Polish territory!"

At this point, Lynn looked at Steve and suddenly asked, "Was your chat with Ms. Peggy pleasant last night?"

When Lynn asked him a question, Steve took a deep breath. Although he didn't say anything, his mental state was obviously much better.

After the luncheon, Lynn piloted his fighter jet toward Poland.

As soon as the fighter jets entered Polish territory, several other fighter jets flew towards them.

"Are radar monitoring systems this advanced even in this era?"

Upon seeing fighter jets ahead, Natasha couldn't help but mutter a complaint.

Hearing Natasha's complaint, Steve said, "Ever since the British detected German fighter planes using radar systems in the 40s, Germany has also paid attention to radar. Hydra's technology is more advanced than that of ordinary armies, so this is normal!"

Lynn handed the fighter jet piloting control to Natasha, opened the hatch, and said, "I'm going to take them out!"

After saying that, Lynn disappeared from their sight.

Before long, watching one fighter jet after another burn and fall from the sky, Natasha smiled at Steve and said, "It always makes me feel at ease to go on missions with Lynn."

Half an hour later, in Shahua, on a quiet street.

Looking at the corpses scattered on the ground where Lynn had killed them, Steve gripped his shield and said to Lynn, "It seems Hydra has a strong grip on Shahua. We were discovered as soon as we arrived!"

Lynn handed the two electronic masks to Steve and Natasha, saying, "The spacetime rift is just a few kilometers away in the Hydra base. It's still a little over five days until the week Strange mentioned, so let's just wait a few more days!"

After saying that, Lynn looked around and then set his sights on an empty apartment building.

Five days later, inside the Hydra base.

Watching the giant octopus, over twenty meters tall, continuously emerge from the spatial rift, Zola Botu excitedly said to Red Skull, "It's finally coming out! Once we control this octopus monster, we can extract its genes for research."

"Maybe we'll be able to mass-produce 'super soldiers,' and then Hydra will control the world!"

Seeing Dr. Zola's excited expression, Red Skull snorted coldly.

From the moment the octopus monster's first tentacle emerged from the space-time rift until now, a full seven days have passed, and Zolaboro has tried every possible method but has failed to obtain even a drop of the octopus monster's blood, or even pierce its skin.

How long would it take to mass-produce super soldiers under these circumstances?

"Trust me, sir, once we have this octopus monster under control, I'll definitely figure something out!"

Ignoring Zola's confident assertions, Red Skull said to his adjutant, "Still no Lynn..."

News of Hall and the other two?

"I'm sorry, sir, I..."

"Bang!"

Before the adjutant could finish explaining, Red Skull shot him in the head, blowing it off: "Useless trash! They've already entered Shahua in fighter jets, and you still can't find it?"

Red Skull's sudden firing of his gun startled Dr. Zola, who was standing nearby.

The octopus monster, which was just one tentacle away from emerging from the spacetime rift, instead extended a long tentacle, wrapped it up, and then put it into its mouth full of sharp teeth to chew.
