The Winter Soldier
"Mr. Stark, it seems we have some guests upstairs," JARVIS's voice suddenly rang out.
Tony quickly pulled up a virtual screen from the table and said to the air, "I need all the images, split across."
"As you wish, sir." As soon as JARVIS finished speaking, the virtual screen above the table automatically split into four sections and adjusted to the appropriate size.
Judging from the angle of the footage, some cameras are in the trees, and some should be on the stone benches outside. The footage shows four squads, each with six fully equipped armed men, approaching the ruins of the base from different directions.
Two armed helicopters flew in shakily from outside, carrying large searchlights and constantly patrolling back and forth below.
"These guys aren't content with just dropping Missiles; they're trying to wipe us out." Hawkeye pulled out an arrow, twirling it in his hand, his fighting spirit unmistakable.
"I need to go up there and vent my anger too." Tony stood up as well.
"You all go, grab the leader and bring him down. The rest, call the police, notify the media, put some pressure on them," Peggy Carter said.
"Then let's all go up. Nick is out of danger. I'll continue treating him in a bit. Let's find a place for him to lie down and rest," Xia Yu instructed.
At the Avengers Compound, dozens of people were searching for life on the ruins with instruments, and two armed helicopters were patrolling the ruins. No one noticed that a patch of ground had silently split open in the grove of trees to the side of the base.
Four people emerged from inside: Xia Yu, Hawkeye, Captain America, and Tony.
"Guys, do we look like four groundhogs?" Tony said, opening his helmet.
"They're the rats, we're going to catch them now," Hawkeye said, staring at the helicopter.
"The two flying squirrels in the sky are mine, and the squirrels on the ground are yours," Tony said, pointing to the helicopter in the sky.
The Captain stopped Tony, who was about to make a move. "No, Tony, you're in charge of catching the Rat King. There are definitely more people outside. We'll take care of the ones inside."
After the Captain finished speaking, he turned to Xia Yu and asked, "Xia, how long will it take you to destroy those two flying rats?"
"I only need a second, Captain, leave it to me," Hawkeye replied.
"No problem, Tony, you wait here. Go find the Rat King as soon as we make our move." After saying this to Tony, the Captain followed Xia Yu Hawkeye, and their group of three to the edge of the woods.
"Clint, are you sure you can handle this? It's over a hundred meters from here." Xia Yu asked in a low voice.
Hawkeye didn't reply, but instead drew two arrows from behind and nocked them onto his bow.
Two arrows fired simultaneously? Xia Yu gave Hawkeye a thumbs up.
When a person's expertise reaches a certain level, their demeanor changes when they pick up tools. Just Hawkeye's sharp eyes; Xia Yu felt that he was sure to hit the target when he drew his bow and arrow.
Hawkeye turned his head slightly and gave Xia Yu a smile. He released the bowstring, and two arrows whistled through the air. Xia Yu, with his sharp eyes, saw that both arrows hit the helicopter's fuel tank at the same time.
"Boom!"
Both helicopters exploded simultaneously. Xia Yu heard a whooshing sound behind him at the same time as the explosions, indicating that Tony had already begun his operation.
Xia Yu immediately shot out like an arrow, with all the thrusters firing at full power. Xia Yu instantly accelerated to twice the speed of sound, and before the twenty-odd armed men could even react to the shock of the helicopter's sudden explosion, he had already rushed into the crowd.
There was chaos and disarray. Xia Yu had secretly upgraded the Black Tortoise Golden Body Art by two levels a few days ago, and now he was practically a human Hulk. Xia Yu had to carefully control his strength, for fear of smashing someone's head into a bursting watermelon.
One punch after another, incredibly fast. Once he got close, Xia Yu, who had activated the Lingbo Weibu, was like a Ghost. Before anyone could even see his appearance, he had already floated away to strike the next one.
"Da da!"
The group fired their rifles indiscriminately, accidentally wounding several of their own men.
The Captain and Hawkeye had only run halfway when they saw the situation. They decided to go help Tony instead, since capturing the criminals alive was something Tony wasn't very good at.
Hawkeye also stopped where he was. It was too dangerous for Xia Yu to go over there; several people were firing wildly. It would be better for him to stay at a distance and see if anyone was trying to escape, and then shoot them with an arrow.
Judging from the sounds, Tony's side was also engaged in a fierce battle, so the Captain should be fine to go over there. Hawkeye, on the other hand, stood obediently and leisurely to the side, drawing his bow and preparing to finish off the enemy.
Xia Yu finished quickly. To be honest, if he hadn't left a few for the police and reporters, Xia Yu probably would have finished much earlier if it were just a simple murder. Controlling his strength to knock someone out with one punch is actually more difficult.
"Clint, is it still not over there? Is it really that slow for the two of them to capture a leader alive?" Xia Yu asked.
Hawkeye curled his lip, thinking to himself, "Who's as twisted as you?" But he said aloud, "You take me there. I don't want to go through all that trouble only to have to run back myself after it's all over."
Xia Yu shrugged and scooped Hawkeye up in his arms. "Next time, have Tony get more equipment. At least everyone can fly, that would be great. Hold on tight, baby."
With Hawkeye enabled, Xia Yu flew low towards the main gate.
Before they could even see anyone in the distance, they heard the Captain's voice, filled with doubt and deep affection, a complex mix of emotions. "Bucky!"
