Serpent Society: Good Thing Ben Hasn't Noticed Anything Wrong Yet

Las Vegas, inside the cave base.

Some of the street heroes who remained at the base watched in surprise as Ben returned.

Most of the street heroes participated in the hijacking of the Hydra spaceship and were already in ambush, waiting for Natasha to deactivate the Planetary Shield.

However, a very small number of personnel remained at the Las Vegas base.

There are still many ordinary people inside the base, and residents of Las Vegas also need to be evacuated.

"You're back so soon?"

Some of the heroes asked, "You haven't been gone long, have you? Where's the Wasp?"

"We've already obtained the fragment."

Ben shook the fragments.

As for the Wasp, after Ben freed Doctor Pym from Ultron's body, she naturally stayed by her father's side and had no plans to return for the time being.

Perhaps Pym will join her in trying to use the power of Ultron Robot to take some people away from Earth.

My son Tony isn't back yet? Can I use his lab?

The hero paused for a moment, then said, "Your son looks quite old."

"Are you planning some amazing invention?"

Ben nodded, placed the separated Cube Fragment on the analytical instrument, and said, "Have you heard of Dragon Ball Radar? Since they are also the Cube fragments, they should release energy frequencies of the same frequency. By analyzing one of them, we can find the remaining fragments."

The information Rick Jones passed on to them may not have been comprehensive; the number of the Cube fragments may have been far greater than recorded, Ben had more faith in his own technology.

The man nodded as if he understood, then walked away.

"Um, I'm going to make a phone call."

Scott walked awkwardly to a corner, muttering something like, "Sorry, Cassie, next time..."

Ben glanced at him.

His expression held a hint of amusement.

While the instruments were analyzing the fragments, he whispered his name to Azmuth.

"Azmuth, wiretap Scott's phone and find out who he's talking to."

Azmuth replied in less than a second, "Sir, Scott's signal is being transmitted to Hydra headquarters."

"Intercept it."

Ben looked unsurprised.

He found it very strange that Hydra members arrived at Ultron Domain shortly after he arrived.

Although Hydra probably already knew the whereabouts of some of the fragments, the fact that they chose to go at the same time as them clearly indicates that they already knew the message Rick Jones had sent them.

"Sir, I've checked their previous call records and it's confirmed that Scott's daughter is under Hydra's control. Furthermore, Scott hasn't revealed all the intelligence."

Azmuth said, "The Hydra ship hijacking plan and the headquarters infiltration plan are still classified, but your actions and those of the other members of the Galactic Plumbers have been revealed."

"At least he still has some conscience."

Ben snorted.

The hijacking of the spaceship and the headquarters infiltration plan concerned the lives of countless people on Earth in this universe. Scott did not reveal these two parts, which only shows that he was still human.

As for Ben himself...

It doesn't matter, we'll always run into each other when we're fighting for the fragments anyway.

Moreover, the images he left in Washington were not particularly sophisticated, and it was only a matter of time before they were discovered.

"No, I'm still a little annoyed!"

Ben his fist on the table, furious. He was great in every way except for his narrow -Mind's Eye!

We need to find a way to trick Steve!

He sat in the chair, thinking slowly.

"The Captain Hydra doesn't know much about me, but he still sent Vision to deal with me. It seems the other teams' operations aren't going so smoothly."

He guessed correctly.

At this moment, in Atlantis, Hawkeye, Tony, and Amadeus Cho met Steve Rogers himself.

And of course, there were his subordinates.

In the Mutant Nation Sinthea, Quicksilver hadn't even had a chance to Looma and Felicia to the Mutant Nation's ambassador, Beast, when they encountered Scarlet Witch, who was controlled by the Chthon, shortly after crossing the border.

Wakanda went relatively smoothly.

T'Challa encountered a distraught Thor at the border. This two-faced and dejected god made way for T'Challa, allowing him to return to his kingdom.

Even after encountering his counterpart in another universe, T'Challa, as king, refused to relinquish the fragments he possessed.

"T'Challa might be the most likely to get the remaining fragment, but it doesn't matter anymore."

Ben suddenly felt that whether or not he could get the fragment was no longer important, and he didn't even want to look for the other fragments that hadn't been discovered yet.

Why waste this time?

He can just let Hydra collect them; he only needs to wait for Hydra to deliver the Cube to him.

"Azmuth, simulate Scott's voice and call Steve Rogers. It's time to give him a report on our work, and by the way..." He glanced down at the analyzed wavelength.

"Hydra has so many people, it's time to give him more responsibilities."

"Also, drag Vision in."

Inside the Hydra submarine.

Steve Rogers put on the headset, a look of joy spreading across his face.

"What?! They successfully obtained the fragment from Ultron, and even analyzed the location of the remaining fragments! Vision is returning with the fragment?"

He stood up excitedly.

But then his face darkened, and he felt immense grief.

"Zemo is dead?!"

Steve took a deep breath, overwhelmed with grief at the sacrifice of his best friend and brother.

But he quickly cheered up and said:

"It's alright, these are necessary sacrifices! As long as I gather the Cube, any bad situation can be rewritten! I can turn everything around! And you too, Scott, you'll be able to have a happy dinner with your daughter."

Steve convinced himself and began to feel excited about the impending victory again.

He turned on the monitor, and the screen showed an empty Slush Shop in Washington D.C.., with several figures inside seemingly exchanging information.

But Steve already knew it was just an illusion.

"Ben Parker, you think you can fool us? You clever fool." He chuckled. "Too bad you don't know I've already planted informants within the Avengers. Your every move is under my control!"

He looked at Ben's face in the image with a mocking expression, as if he wanted to vent his hatred for Zemo's death.

"And you don't know that I was using the relocation of civilians as a pretext to gather Hydra's war forces, do you?"

He thought to himself, "Once the Cosmic Cube is all assembled, it will be the moment when Hydra attacks another Earth!"

Annihilation Weapon are nothing compared to fireworks when faced with the Cube capable of rewriting reality.

He could even use the power of the Cosmic Cube to resolve the Collision Crisis and unleash the brilliance of Ben upon Hydra's universe!
