Overwatch invades American comics

Chapter 537 The Sleeper (asking for monthly ticket)
Just as the Winter Soldier was speaking, several dazzling light sources suddenly appeared behind him. The surrounding darkness was dispelled by the dim light, and many huge mechanical devices came into view.

Thick glass, eerie cold white mist, under the dim light, you can vaguely see something inside.

Captain America looked surprised because he found that there were people inside these mechanical devices, both men and women. They were all covered with a layer of ice mist and their eyes were closed.

"Friday, what is this?" Iron Man asked.

"Still tanks with refrigeration capabilities, often used in experiments and biological research."

"So this is a refrigerator?" Tony said with a pout.

“These should all be sleepers,” William replied.

In William's notebook, there are detailed records about the Winter Soldier Project.

The Winter Soldier is usually frozen, and when performing a mission, the Winter Soldier will be thawed, brainwashed again, and ordered to perform the mission. The Winter Soldier is basically frozen most of the year, so there is the origin of this name.

However, the Winter Soldier Project is nothing more than Hydra's imitation of Captain America. They also want to create their own super soldier, so they look for famous special forces or agents in the world, capture them, and after drug injections and mind control, transform them into killing machines.

However, such transformation is very unstable and can easily cause the transformed person to become mentally ill and disobey orders, so brainwashing must be repeated before each mission.

In this Winter Soldier Project, there is not only Barnes as the Winter Soldier, there have been many other people in the past. However, compared with Barnes, they are very difficult to control, and their emotions are extremely easy to cause impulsiveness. It can be said that over the years, Barnes is the only successful Winter Soldier.

So these people were later frozen and slept here forever, becoming sleepers.

William looked from left to right and saw seven static tanks, six of which had people in them. The one in the middle had been opened, so there must have been someone there. But it was all covered in dust, and it was obvious that the person had left here a long time ago.

Captain America looked at the empty resting tank, then at the tied up Winter Soldier, and he realized that the place originally belonged to Barnes.

"Steve, listen to me and go!" said the Winter Soldier.

"I will not abandon you, Bucky. I must rescue you!" said Captain America. He was trying to find a way to remove the time bomb on Barnes.

Suddenly, a voice sounded in this place. It was still that mysterious voice, exactly the same as the voice heard in the player before, and the tone of that voice was cold.

"Now that you're here, you've proven your decision."

"Your friend James Barnes, also known as the Winter Soldier, was your partner in the past. During an operation, he accidentally fell off a train and fell into the abyss. You thought he was dead, but he wasn't..."

Captain America looked around, trying to find the source of the voice. After all, this person was very familiar with them, familiar with his and Barnes' past. This was an enemy who knew them very well.

"The Hydra people took him away, erased his memory, and gave him a new identity, the Winter Soldier of Hydra. Over the years, he has killed many people, and his hands are full of innocent blood. Although he is controlled by Hydra, he remembers every person he killed clearly."

"Every night he is awakened by nightmares. Those who died at his hands have always troubled him. He wants to atone for his sins and take responsibility for his past. When his consciousness is controlled, his true consciousness actually exists all the time. A part of him is still awake, just like a passerby living in his body."

"He struggled to escape but failed again and again."

"Now let's play a game. There is a time bomb on James Barnes with a countdown of 3 minutes. You can choose not to save him and escape. In this way, all the sleepers will never wake up."

"You can also choose to save him, in which case you will have to defuse the bomb within three minutes. I will wake up all the sleepers to stop you, and they will most likely escape from here. Each of them has their own mission. Steve, make your choice!"

As soon as that voice fell, the six stasis tanks behind the Winter Soldier were opened, and as the cold air dissipated, the long-sleeping sleepers opened their eyes!
At this time, the countdown on the Winter Soldier also began!

3: 00!

2:59
"желание (longing) ржавчина (rusting)..."

William quickly picked up his notebook and recited the code spell. He and Black Widow had learned Russian for a while, and although the pronunciation was not standard, it should be effective. He thought that the spells of other Winter Soldiers were the same, but the sleepers were fine, and Barnes looked painful.

"Forget it." William threw the notebook to the ground, "Athena, prepare for the shadow transformation!"

In the gorgeous colorful lights, William transformed into a black shadow with bronze skin and a handsome hairstyle. The left side of his hair was shaved off and the right side of his hair was dyed purple. The hacker is online!

"Black Widow, Master, as agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., you must know how to defuse the bomb." As the countdown began, William had already thought of a solution in his mind, "Nini, Thor, Captain, and Bruce, we can't let the sleepers get in their way, and we can't let them get out!"

You know, the Winter Soldier is good at disguise, infiltration and assassination. Back then, a Winter Soldier clone turned the world upside down, the United Nations in Vienna was attacked, and the King of Wakanda was assassinated. If so many sleepers escaped, who would have thought that something terrible would happen!

Three sleepers rushed towards Black Widow and Hawkeye who were defusing the bomb, and the other three sleepers ran directly outside.

These Winter Soldiers are actually the same as Barnes, with their bodies filled with mechanical parts. One sleeper's right arm is mechanical, one sleeper's left leg is mechanical, another's right leg is mechanical, and one female sleeper's half face seems to be mechanical... Hawkeye is a top agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., let alone defuse a time bomb, he can even defuse a nuclear bomb. But that was when he was very serious, if someone kept messing around, he would be distracted. If he was not careful, he might detonate the bomb.

Black Widow bought time for Hawkeye and stopped the attacking Sleepers, but each Sleeper had abilities and strength no less than the Winter Soldier. Natasha was no match for the three Winter Soldiers, and these Sleepers' attacks were more violent and fierce than Barnes'.

"Roar!"

Seeing Black Widow being beaten, the Hulk was very angry. He roared and turned into the Hulk in an instant. He swung his fists at the two sleepers. The sleepers quickly dodged, leaving a huge fist mark where they had just landed.

The other three sleepers did not intend to stop Hawkeye from defusing the bomb, but ran directly outside. They split into three groups and tried to get rid of the Avengers.

Iron Man, Thor and Captain America each chased a sleeper. Captain America's opponent was a male sleeper, while Iron Man and Thor's opponents were both female sleepers.

The male sleeper was familiar with the terrain and tried to shake Captain America off, but at this moment, Steve threw out his shield and slammed into his back, knocking him to the ground.

"Don't be fooled by your pretty looks. I won't show mercy." Iron Man flew up and caught up with the female sleeper and said.

"Really? I can't do it either!" the female sleeper said in a deep voice. The mechanical leg on her left leg instantly exerted force, allowing her to jump into the air and onto Iron Man.

Iron Man flew in the air, trying to throw the opponent off, but the Sleeper held on tightly and punched the iron armor again and again.

"For the glory of Asgard, I will not fight with a lady!" Thor said in a gentlemanly tone.

"What a hypocrite!" said the female sleeper. She was the Winter Soldier whose half face had turned into machinery. At this moment, a red laser suddenly shot out from her mechanical eyes and shot towards Thor.

Thor dodged immediately, but was still a step too slow. A strand of his golden hair was hit by the laser and turned into ashes.

"My hair!" For Thor, his blond hair, hammer, and girlfriend are all as important, so the God of Thunder got angry, "Look at me hitting your chest with my hammer!"

2:30
2:29
Where was William while the Avengers were fighting hard?

"The beacon is in place!"

After transforming into Sombra, William first tried to detonate the time bomb on the Black Winter Soldier, but this time bomb was a very old-fashioned one, and Sombra's hacking was useless.

So William went into stealth mode again, looking for an opportunity to attack the sleepers.

You know, the mechanical devices on the sleepers can be hacked. William can make their mechanical parts temporarily malfunction. Even if it's only for a while, it's enough.

Look, William just hacked the mechanical arms and legs of two sleepers and was immediately knocked away by the Hulk.

"Clint, are you okay?" asked Black Widow.

"Don't be in a hurry." Hawkeye said. This old-fashioned bomb is no longer common. There are many colorful wires in front of him. Clint just cut a few of them. Just when he was about to cut the next blue wire, the countdown suddenly accelerated!

2:00
1: 00!

"Clint, what did you do?" Black Widow's eyes widened.

"I don't know either. Logically, the countdown should be paused after cutting this line." Hawkeye touched his head, and soon he understood where the problem lay.

In fact, if Captain America chooses to escape, they will not be harmed. But if Captain America chooses to save people, there is no way to defuse this time bomb once it is activated. This is a trap set by the enemy because the enemy knows that Steve will never give up his friends!
"I'm out of here!"

A purple light appeared in front of Hawkeye. It was William in black shadow form. He had just thrown the teleportation beacon nearby, and now she teleported back.

"William, we are in trouble. I can't defuse this bomb."

"I know, that's why I'm back." William said.

"You guys should leave quickly while there is still time. Otherwise, after the bomb explodes, you will all be buried hundreds of meters underground." Barnes saw that the countdown was only 30 seconds, so he persuaded the Avengers not to save him.

"No, I have to rescue you. This is what I promised Captain America." William said in a deep voice. He said it so nicely because this was actually his main mission. Haha.

00:20
00: 18!

The countdown continued, and at this moment, the icon of Sombra's ultimate skill finally lit up. William did not hesitate. He came in front of the Winter Soldier and shouted loudly: "Electromagnetic pulse activated!"
