American Comics: The Matrix

Chapter 476 Tony: So we met through Vault-Bridge

Las Vegas.

This world has become a battlefield.

Hydra came with great force, but the situation took an unexpected turn.

With two major forces defecting, they have already fallen into a disadvantageous position.

"Steve!"

Lady Hydra came to Steve's side, and the Siren died in the chaos.

"Vision has obtained the last fragment. We must return immediately."

She said loudly.

However, before she could finish speaking, Wanda cast a spell that instantly restrained her.

"Valentina!"

Steve, who was fighting Tony, was distracted and shouted, only to be blasted away by Iron Man's cannon.

"Valentina~"

Tony, in a cheeky, high-pitched voice, mimicked him: "Calling her so affectionately, is she your lover?"

"Shut up!"

Steve glared at him fiercely: "What do you know? Valentina is just like my mother!"

"So it turns out we met through playing tile-making."

Tony understood.

Steve didn't have time for banter; he hurled his shield far away, interrupting Wanda.

Lady Hydra, having escaped, didn't have time to worry about herself and immediately used her magic to envelop Steve. At the same time, Vision, carrying the fragments, also quickly returned.

"Run, Steve!"

Green magical energy instantly enveloped Steve and Vision.

"Don't let them leave!" Tony yelled. "Vision took the Tesseract fragment!"

Steve tried to reach out and grab Lady Hydra, but Wanda reacted quickly, and a burst of magical energy pierced through Lady Hydra's abdomen.

"Valentina!"

"Goodbye, my child."

Despite her injuries, Lady Hydra used her last strength to send Steve and Vision away.

When her magic wore off, all that remained was her own corpse.

Victory!
The heroes looked at the hills that had been razed to the ground, their faces still showing some shock.

This is their first victory against Hydra in a year.

However, no one showed much joy on their face.

The fragments were still taken away.

All the effort ultimately came to naught.

This is a meaningless victory, because all their gains will be reversed.

"At least we still have the option to leave."

Hawkeye said helplessly.

Giving up on this world is the most helpless option.

"How to leave?"

Tony countered, "He got all the fragments; I doubt even Bant and his men can do anything to him now."

He collapsed in despair: "We have let them down, we have let them down."

At that moment, T'Challa, who had left with the fragments, returned.

He asked curiously, "Why do you all look like that? Did you lose? It's okay, at least we kept the fragments."

He opened his hand, and the fragments of the Cosmic Cube were still glowing.

???

Tony, on his deathbed, was startled awake.

"What's going on? Didn't Vision already take the fragment?"

"Really? But I didn't see him."

T'Challa was puzzled.

“He took mine, or rather, I gave it to him myself.” Scott returned, his face beaming with joy, as if he had witnessed victory.

"You gave it to him!"

Tony wanted to kill him. How dare you laugh, you son of a bitch!
"Wait, let me finish!"

“Let him finish speaking,” Hawkeye said, noticing a possible shift in the situation. “Vision took one fragment, but he told Steve that the fragments were complete. Something must be wrong.”

“That’s right!” Scott clapped his hands, about to start talking about his escape, when Tony threatened to punch him again: “Get to the point!”

"Vision is one of us!"

Scott said immediately.

"I knew it!" Vivi jumped up excitedly.

"Tell me more details!" Tony Stark's expression immediately changed, and he was practically ready to take out some sunflower seeds to eat.

“Vision told me. I’d been wondering why, since Bant had clearly fixed him,” Scott said. “Actually, Bant had already discovered I was an informant…”

He felt a little guilty and continued, "Then he removed the virus from Vision, but still arranged for Vision to stay with Hydra, just like Thor and the others."

Thor raised his hand: "That's right."

"He misled Steve into thinking they only had one fragment left, but in reality, one of them was fake, including the one they brought back this time."

"So really?"

T'Challa chimed in, "I have one, and the other is most likely with Bant. There's no safer place than with him."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"And there's even better news."

Suddenly, the sound of a mimic bird came through the headset.

"Gentlemen, we have deactivated the control program on the Hydra mothership. It's time to prepare for the final battle!"

Her voice reached the ears of countless people, and the heroes waiting for the signal in various cities were already impatient.

At the same time, Captain Marvel's voice also came through the communication.

"Everyone, do you mind if I go find Queen Chitauri first? Otherwise, those bugs will never stop."

Everyone's eyes were fixed on the sky.

The planetary shield that had been in place for over a year suddenly opened.

Captain Marvel streaked across the sky like the tail of a shooting star.

Countless monsters followed behind her, seemingly too preoccupied to pay attention to this side.

But it's irrelevant now.

Victory is in sight for them.

at the same time.

At Hydra headquarters.

Steve, who was teleported back by Madam Hydra, knew nothing of this.

He was still immersed in the pain and shock of Lady Hydra being killed by Wanda, as if he had become numb.

"Zemo is dead, Valentina is dead too..."

He has already lost too much in order to build a better new world.

Vision remained expressionless.

After the virus was cracked, his intelligence regained its dominance, but he still couldn't understand why Steve Rogers had become a Hydra agent.

At that moment, Dr. Zola rushed over in a panic.

"Steve!"

"Steve!"

"The planetary shield has been activated; someone has infiltrated our base!"

Steve Rogers suddenly came to his senses.

"It's Bantpark who's behind this!"

he said angrily.

If it weren't for that person, Thor and Wanda would both be under his control. If it weren't for that person, this operation wouldn't have failed. If it weren't for that person, Zemo and Madam Hydra wouldn't have died!
"At least we still have this."

Vision handed him the fake fragment.

Although they are fake fragments, they actually possess powerful energy.

At least for now, it doesn't look fake.

"This is the last one."

Zola exclaimed excitedly, "You can change everything, Steve, no, the great Supreme Leader!"

He led Steve to the laboratory and integrated the fragments into the golden armor.

As soon as Steve put on the armor, he immediately felt an overwhelming power coursing through his entire body.

"go!"

"I want those people to pay the price before I change reality!"
