A Marine Admiral in the Marvel Universe

The Hummer crashed down heavily, hitting a passing car and instantly bursting into flames, sending a wave of heat through the air.

Although separated by the tram, Cao Gui could see that the meritorious driver was already dead. The windshield of the car they had smashed somehow flew off and pierced the driver's neck.

Although he was dead, Ghost and Anna were not. The two of them, panting, got out of the car, opened the box, and loaded the warhead into a launcher that looked like a rocket.

Ghost led the rockets away, while Anna carried the remaining warheads and ran off in another direction, ignoring Ghost.

"Damn it... Captain, their target might be the Eiffel Tower, the favorite food of those wire nanobots!" Black Widow yelled into the headset.

"I'll go after that married woman, you deal with the one in the white suit." Cao Gui glanced at Steve beside him, twisted the throttle on his motorcycle, and chased after Anna.

"Damn it... I'm the captain..." Steve muttered, slung his shield over his shoulder, and chased after them with all his might.

The car behind them slowly came to a stop. Black Widow and Hawkeye looked at the two who had separated, exchanged a glance, and said slowly:

"Our mission is over, the rest is theirs."

"Let's go!"

Chapter 415 Climbing the Stairs

Anna, a married woman, carried a large suitcase in one hand and a strangely shaped pistol in the other. Her steps were agile, and she did not resemble a delicate and fragile woman at all.

In a few quick turns and flashes, he actually slipped into a large shopping mall, attempting to shake off Cao Gui by taking advantage of the massive crowds.

However, when she turned around, Cao Gui was still following behind her. Although he looked anxious and flustered, his Asian face was too obvious among so many European faces.

"Damn it..." veins throbbed on Anna's fair forehead. "How come these Asians all have so many strange and wonderful abilities!"

She thought of White Ghost. Although he wasn't tall, not even as tall as she was when she wore high heels, and not strong, he was really ruthless when he killed people. Even ten or so strong men wouldn't be enough to kill him, especially when he had a knife in his hand.

The Asian man behind me was even worse. He always kept a distance of about ten meters from me. If I quickened my pace, he could easily push through the crowd to catch up with me. If I slowed down, the crowd would inexplicably increase in size, making it impossible for him to push through or get through.

"No, this can't go on!" Anna's eyes, pert nose bridge gleaming black, turned dark. All her missions in Paris were complete; now, the most important thing was to return to base with these three warheads.

A message lit up behind her black sunglasses. Anna strode into the elevator; she was going to the rooftop of the building where a plane would pick her up. Once she boarded the plane, she could leave safely.

However, just as she entered the elevator, Cao Gui hurriedly began to push aside the people in front of him, and in the blink of an eye, he rushed to the elevator.

Seeing this, Anna suddenly raised her pistol and pulled the trigger hard. With a whoosh, a pale yellow energy beam shot out towards Cao Gui.

The distance was too close and the speed too fast. Cao Gui couldn't dodge in time and was instantly slammed into by the energy light at a speed that grazed his body. With a loud bang, an explosion occurred inside the mall, and smoke and dust billowed up. Cao Gui crashed into the ruins and disappeared without a trace.

"Hmph...I thought you were something special!" Anna sneered, ignoring the fearful gazes around her, and pressed the elevator button to quickly head towards the rooftop.

In the ruins, Cao Gui sat up, touched his left shoulder, and frowned. It was indeed the energy of the Mind Stone. It seemed that this partner, like Red Skull, simply extracted the energy from the gem, stored it in a container, and then emitted it...

"Clumsy application of energy..." Cao Gui shook his head and said disdainfully. Fortunately, the gems these people had were Mind Stones. These things are the same as Space Stones, with gentle energy properties.

If it were the Power Stone... that would be a disaster. The violent energy could destroy not only people, but even planets.

"Could it really be Hydra?" Cao Gui's brows furrowed. The Anna from earlier seemed to have a nickname, Baroness, and there was a member of Hydra named Baron Strucker.

Could it be that... these two have some kind of special, intimate relationship?

On the other hand, the relationship between Storm Shadow and Captain America is not as amicable as that between Cao Gui and Anna.

The Storm Rider, carrying an RPG-like launcher, ran rapidly, dodging and weaving, leaving Captain America far behind.

"Damn it... how can this Asian guy run so fast?" Captain America, carrying his shield, gritted his teeth and chased after Ghost. Ghost suddenly slipped into a building and, instead of taking the elevator like Anna, ran straight up the emergency exit on foot.

He was looking for a suitable firing angle, an angle that would allow the bullet to hit the Eiffel Tower accurately.

"Captain, you must stop him as soon as possible, or Paris will be lost..." Black Widow warned in the earpiece.

“Damn it, he’s like a nimble monkey… no, he’s like Jack Cheng.” Captain America said, somewhat annoyed, “That bastard is like Jack Cheng in the junkyard of a shopping mall, you can’t catch him…”

He was absolutely not afraid of a head-on confrontation, but this guy was just too agile. He supported himself on the fence with one hand and ran with both legs directly on the wall. I was clearly accelerating and almost catching up with him in a straight line, but then he turned a corner and the distance between us widened again.

With a few loud bangs, White Ghost arrived in a corridor, kicked open the doors of several rooms, grinned at the Eiffel Tower outside the glass windows, and pulled the trigger.

With a whoosh, the green nano-solution projectile, trailing a long flame, slammed into the Eiffel Tower.

Instantly, pale green smoke spread out from the Eiffel Tower, and everything that came into contact with the green smoke turned into iron powder and fell off.

The White Ghost breathed a sigh of relief; the mission to destroy Paris was complete!

Just then, a loud whooshing sound came, and a shield flew by rapidly, smashing him away with a clang.

"Damn it, where's the brake switch?" Steve roared, walking up to Ghost and grabbing him.

However, Ghost wiped the blood from his forehead, kicked off the ground, twisted his waist, grinned maliciously, and turned the launcher in his hand into a hammer, slamming it hard into Captain America's temple.

Captain America's expression changed slightly, and he suddenly exerted force, throwing Ghost away.

Ghost Ghost executed a nimble mid-air somersault, landing in a superhero-style three-point jump, then tossed her head back and glared at Captain America, saying menacingly:

"I can't beat you, but I can fight you all day long!"

Steve: "..."

That sounds...familiar!

On the rooftop of the shopping mall, Baroness Anna saw the Eiffel Tower crumbling and corroding, and a satisfied smile appeared on her lips.

A single nanobot warhead contains seven million tiny nanobots. They are immortal and powered by solar energy. Unless a switch is pressed, they will continue to devour the body until it ages and breaks down. By then, a city will have already vanished.

Especially in a city like Paris, where steel is abundant, as they pondered, numerous iron blocks fell with green smoke, and in a short time, many cars on the ground were reduced to empty shells by nanobots.

“It’s time to evacuate…” Anna breathed a sigh of relief, but then a thought struck her. She turned her head and saw Cao Gui standing on the edge of the rooftop. Although his clothes were torn and his left shoulder was drooping, he didn’t seem to be seriously injured.

"Damn it! How did you get up here?" Anna exclaimed in shock, even though she had clearly shot the man.

“Take the stairs.” Cao Gui smiled. “Hand over the switch. You can’t escape.”

"Don't even think about it!" Anna roared, raising her energy weapon to prepare to fire, but Cao Gui flicked his wrist, and the flintlock pistol flew out first.

With a bang, a lead pellet shot out and hit Anna's right shoulder. Anna immediately lost her grip, and the energy weapon fell to the ground.

“I told you, you can’t escape now,” Cao Gui said calmly, walking to her side and pressing the switch. But by then, half of the Eiffel Tower had already disappeared.

It crashed down with a loud bang and plunged into the Seine, beyond repair.

"Damn it, Ghost has escaped! They have a flying vehicle!" Steve yelled into the headset.

At the same time, Anna grabbed Cao Gui, smiled slightly, and with a sudden, forceful swing of her slender waist, pulled Cao Gui off the rooftop.

Just as Cao Gui was wondering what was going on, a flying vehicle that looked like a Quinjet arrived and precisely guided the two of them into the cabin.

White Ghost breathed slightly, looking down at Cao Gui: "Not bad, at least you captured one person from S.H.I.E.L.D."

In the distance, Black Widow watched all this through her binoculars and nodded slightly: "His acting is quite good, much better than yours, Barton."

"I'm only suited for fighting," Hawkeye said with a shrug.

Chapter 416 There's an old saying in your Celestial Empire

Beep beep~

The Paris police arrived late and surrounded the chaotic shopping mall, but by then Black Widow and her team had already picked up Steve and quietly left, blending into the heavy traffic of Paris.

"Captain, is that guy difficult to deal with?" Hawkeye asked, glancing in the rearview mirror. Behind him, Black Widow was tending to Captain America's wounds.

"Not bad, about the same as me." Steve grinned as Black Widow helped him remove a dart from his calf. The guy had been playing dirty, not aiming at the shield, which had caused him quite a bit of trouble.

“That guy in the white suit is pretty agile. Next time you run into him, don’t engage him in close combat, use a gun,” Steve said. He hates ninjas the most.

Upon hearing this, the two nodded. Hawkeye turned the steering wheel, turned the car around, and drove in another direction. They were going to return to the mothership, and now it was up to that person to show their skills.

……

The Arctic, on a small island.

Unlike the original story, the base here is not the large underwater base, but a base built on an island.

It makes sense if you don't think about it. Building a massive base under the Arctic ice is a huge undertaking, not to mention the construction difficulties. Just ensuring that the heat inside doesn't get lost is a massive project.

Even the richest villainous organization can't create such a place without the support of a major power. If they had the support of a major power... why bother with the Arctic? Wouldn't it be better to just set up their base in a calm, warm, and comfortable place?

In a room at the base, Cao Gui groaned and slowly woke up...bullshit!

He was actually faking it. That woman was petty; after bringing him onto the plane, she slapped him on the neck with a chop.

Cao Gui was stunned for a moment before realizing that he should have fainted and collapsed, and then he was brought here.

Before the operation began, Gatler gave him two locators, one for liquid and one for mucous membrane.

That's right, it's the same kind of mucosal locator used by Eggsy, so Cao Gui decisively chose the liquid locator.

Level 8 Agent Gatler highly recommends the mucosal locator because it can be used at any time.

But not every man can appreciate the beauty of blooming chrysanthemums like an English gentleman, so Cao Gui chose a liquid locator.

The liquid positioner is actually an improvement on the mucosal positioner, so it takes a while for the liquid positioner to work, which, according to Gartler, should be about three hours.

“Interesting…” A person with a masked face and one eye covered squeezed Cao Gui’s shoulder and exclaimed in surprise:

"The Baroness told me that she shot you with a superweapon, but you... are completely unharmed. Can you tell me why?"

At this moment, Cao Gui was fixed on an iron frame, and needle-shaped vessels would occasionally pass in front of him, giving people goosebumps.

Despite his formidable strength, he still felt somewhat intimidated when faced with these long needles.

Seeing that Cao Gui remained silent, the masked man chuckled in a hoarse voice:

"People of the Celestial Empire, you have a saying: 'Those who understand the times are heroes.' Sharing our secrets will be very beneficial to you."

As he spoke, he clapped his hands, and screens above his head lit up one by one. Then the masked man continued, "People of the Celestial Empire, you have an old saying there: 'To kill someone without teaching them is cruelty.'"

"Let me make this clear to you. Our plan consists of two parts: the sword and the shield." The masked man sneered, "The sword is the weapon of destruction, including nuclear weapons, the nanoweapons you've seen, and energy weapons."

"And the shield is all kinds of defensive structures, including this base, and of course, the most important one is a guard that will always be loyal to us."

As he spoke, an image slowly appeared on the screen above his head: a soldier reaching into a glass box and placing his arm in front of a king cobra.

As the king cobra bared its fangs and bit down, the soldier slowly knelt down. But miraculously, the king cobra's venom did not cause him any harm; instead, it was slowly expelled from the wound.

"These are our Neo Serpent Demons. They experience no fear, no despair, no pain," the masked man chuckled coldly.

"They are super soldiers created by nanobots, far more powerful than Captain America or Iron Man, and these people... we can mass-produce."
