"It's very light and easy to handle, I like it!" Carter said with a satisfied look on his face as he held the longsword.

"Oh, Carter, you know what? You look just like a real knight right now. I think even if King Arthur, Lancelot, or Joan of Arc were to be resurrected, they wouldn't be as dashing as you!" Josie exclaimed, clapping her hands in admiration.

"Don't joke with me, I don't have their glorious achievements!" Carter was a little embarrassed after hearing this, so she looked at the last item in the display case, the backpack, and changed the subject by asking, "What is that?"

“Rocket-powered jetpack!” Josie replied after glancing at it. “Although the Super Soldier Serum gave you a powerful physique, I don’t think that means you’d want to climb walls and mountains with your bare hands all the time. This, on the other hand, will allow you to easily overcome most obstacles in the world. Of course, like a shield, it’s not easy for the average person to control, but I don’t think that should be a big problem for you.”

Although Captain Carter in the future Strange 2 universe also has a jetpack, the movie before Josie's time travel hadn't been released yet, so the inspiration for this jetpack naturally didn't come from Captain Carter in that universe, but from the rocket pilots in the Red Alert world.

Although in the world of Red Alert, the Allied rocket infantry is considered a very useless unit.

Fragile, expensive, and weak.

It can basically only be used for limited purposes such as reconnaissance and interception.

But that is largely due to the limitations imposed by the manipulator.

If its controller were a super soldier, the situation might be very different.

Yuri has proven this after replicating the mass-produced super soldier serum and testing it on Jehovah priests who immigrated to Yuri's plane.

The combination of Super Soldier Potion + Posian Potion + Gunfighting + Rocket Pack results in a value far greater than 4.

Of course, Josie wouldn't give Carter the Possian Potion and Gunfighting Technique, since they're fundamentally from different camps.

"That sounds interesting!" Carter was also very interested after hearing what Josie said.

"Alright, go change your clothes first. I'll wait for you outside, and then I'll take you to the testing ground to test your current combat capabilities." Josie said as she walked out of the collection room and closed the door behind her.

Seeing Josie leave, Carter breathed a sigh of relief and began to change his clothes.

When she stepped out the door again, she was now the real "Captain Carter".

..............................

Over the next few days, Carter and the other super soldiers spent their time in Area 51, partly to observe the situation and partly to help them adapt to their new bodies.

It was precisely during this process that...

Of the other three successful super soldiers, one of them soon developed some abnormal symptoms, just like the previous black super soldiers. Although he did not die, he also became a failure.

So the original 40% success rate dropped to 30% a few days later.

Fortunately, the remaining two did not encounter any further problems.

However, it is clear that there are differences between super soldiers.

Even without using vibranium equipment, the other two super soldiers combined could only barely manage a draw against Peggy Carter, who was almost as perfect as Captain America.

That day, Peggy Carter and two super soldiers were sparring on the training field as usual, with various experimental personnel observing them continuously.

All three used shields—ordinary shields, of course—and the scene was quite lively with the three shields flying around with a clanging sound.

In this situation, Peggy Carter spotted Josh Kahn rushing towards them with his men from afar.

The three immediately stopped training and quickly tidied themselves up, standing neatly in front of Josie, while the base's experimental personnel tactfully left the training ground.

"Looks like you're all in good shape!" Josie said, seeing the three of them drenched in sweat.

"Thank you for your concern, sir!" the three said in unison.

"Sir, is there a mission?" Carter asked impatiently.

“Yes, Captain Carter, you’re about to embark on your first mission, and it’s one that’s extremely risky and difficult!” Josie said with a serious expression.

"Sir, we are ready for battle at any time!" Carter said excitedly. She had been feeling stifled in this base for a long time and was eager to show herself, just like Captain America who had never been able to go to the battlefield.

"That would be perfect, let's go to the conference room!" Josie nodded.

The group then proceeded to the conference room.

After they were seated, the CIA staff member next to Josh handed out a briefing to the three of them and began to explain it.

"It's been six months since the UN General Assembly confirmed the Zionist plan. After six months of preparation, five divisions of Jewish troops, with the help of the military, have completed their training and armament and are about to officially head to Eritrea." As the three reviewed the documents, Josie began to explain. "However, it's clear that Wakanda does not recognize the UN resolution. After ignoring the UN's warnings and forcibly taking control of Ethiopia, they openly declared Eritrea and other regions as their territory. Just half a month ago, they brazenly launched an attack on the British and French troops stationed in the region. If it weren't for the Fifth Fleet patrolling the Red Sea at the time rushing to their aid, the British and French troops there would probably have been driven back into the sea."

"Wakanda's actions have also enraged the UN Security Council, which has resolved to formally form a coalition army led by the five General Assembly members to declare war on Wakanda and help the Jews establish a state in Eritrea."

Of course, you don't need to be too involved in the main battles. Your mission is to infiltrate Wakanda's rear while the Allied forces launch a frontal attack, locate Wakanda's military research facility, and rescue the three Zodiac agents from the Southern Federation who are being held captive, as mentioned in the briefing. These three Zodiac agents, like you, have undergone special enhancements. We need to obtain their secrets, so you must bring them back alive... Captain Carter, any questions?"

After finishing his explanation, Josie looked at Peggy Carter, whose hands were trembling slightly, and asked.

"Ah, no, no problem!" Carter replied, looking up in surprise.

However, it was clear to everyone present that there was something wrong with her attitude.

Josie didn't pursue the matter, and no one else could ask any further questions.

"Alright, meeting adjourned. Go back and prepare. We'll meet at Airport 3 at 5:00 AM sharp tomorrow!" Josie glanced at Carter and then announced the meeting was over.

However, Carter did not leave.

After everyone had left, she rushed up to Josie, pointed excitedly at a photo of a mission target on the mission briefing, and asked, "Is this real? Is he still alive?"

“As you can see, isn’t that right?” Josie shrugged.

He certainly knew why Carter was so agitated.

Because the person in the photo is her brother Michael Carter, who should have died long ago.

"But why? Why is he still alive, but not coming back!" Carter couldn't hold back his tears after receiving confirmation from Josie.

“It’s simple. He might have lost his memory, or he might be controlled by a psychic like Jonah Finhof. But you’ll have to figure out the specifics yourself, since he’s currently in a Wakandan prison,” Josie said.

“Of course, I will definitely solve this mystery, but Josie…” A hint of hesitation flashed across Carter’s face.

"Shh, no need to say more. I don't care what happens during the process, but the final result must be that at least one mission objective is brought back to the United States alive." Josie waved her hand, not letting Carter continue.

Upon hearing Josie's words, Carter immediately understood that she had no intention of stopping her from bringing her brother home, as long as one Zodiac agent was eventually brought back.

"Thank you, Josie!" Carter said sincerely.

"No need to thank me. Just remember that you are a CIA employee and that you must prioritize the interests of the CIA, and that's all!" Josie patted her on the shoulder and then walked out of the conference room.

Carter was left with a lingering, unsettled mind.

The following day, two fully armed super soldiers, led by Carter, boarded a plane bound for Europe.

Current aircraft are not large enough to fly directly from the United States to Northeast Africa, so they will first arrive in London and then transfer there to Eritrea.

"Oh, are you really so comfortable letting your little lover take Wakanda like that? Those guys there are tough to deal with, otherwise Vito and his crew wouldn't have lost so many men there." Ophelia appeared out of nowhere and stood next to Josie as she watched the plane disappear into the distance.

"I've noticed you haven't been getting shocked enough lately, are you itching for a beating?" Josie said, glancing at the woman.

“Hehe…” Ophelia smiled without saying a word.

"...How is the Winter Soldier program progressing?" Josie asked.

“It’s finished, but was it really necessary to use such complicated activation words?” Ophelia also became serious when she heard Josie bring up the important matter.

"Heh, if it's not complicated, will those old fogies on the council feel at ease?" Josie sneered.

“Boss, with our current strength, if we join forces with Mr. Jones and Mr. Malik, we can completely control the council. Why do we still need to be mindful of those old men’s feelings?” Ophelia asked, puzzled.

“Don’t oversimplify things. Our foundation in the United States is still too weak. Without control over the resources held by those old guys, rashly engaging in conflict with them would only deplete the Council’s internal resources and strength, which would be meaningless. Many times, being too controlling is not a good thing. Haven’t Mustache and Schmidt learned their lesson yet?” Josie shook her head and said.

“…You’re right!” Ophelia nodded, but her expression was dismissive, clearly not taking Josie’s words seriously.

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Now that the Winter Soldier is finished, let's return him to those old fogies. If they want vibranium, let them get it themselves. Don't let our people get involved with them," Josie ordered.

Although the two super soldiers who were with Carter also came from the Council, they were meant to be important long-term undercover agents and could not openly do private work for the Council.

So if you want to do private work, you still have to be like Pakistan, who was arrested last year.

Although Dr. Zola is still imprisoned in the Strategic Scientific Corps, he has already successfully established contact with the outside world through the Council's connections. Furthermore, he has remotely modified Bucky, making him a true Winter Soldier. Bucky is now ready for missions; the only remaining step was mind control.

The council initially had its eye on Jonah Finhof, but Ophelia could do that too, so how could Josie give it up?

Moreover, Ophelia's abilities were originally stronger than Finhof's.

Therefore, compared to the original timeline where Finkhoff used Russian to activate psychological suggestion on the Winter Soldier, in this world Ophelia directly gave the Winter Soldier a double psychological suggestion.

Only one layer was handed over to the council.

In other words, under normal circumstances, the council can use the first layer of psychological suggestion to direct Pakistan to do things.

However, if Josie needs it in the future, he can activate the second layer of psychological suggestion to strip Bucky of control and then let Bucky do other things in the name of the council.

Sigh~ In the end, the council will take the blame, and Josh will get all the benefits.

That's just how inhumane they are.

................................................

Just as Carter and her two super soldiers were setting off, the war in Northeast Africa had already begun ahead of schedule.

Although Wakanda's previous military operation against Eritrea was not entirely successful due to the obstruction of the US Fifth Fleet, it had generally cornered the British and French forces in Eritrea, and they even lost control of the capital, Asmara.

Afterwards, a large amount of military force was deployed in this area to prevent a counterattack by the Anglo-French allied forces.

Hmm, that sounds pretty serious.

But in reality, the Anglo-French allied forces only numbered around 40,000, while Wakanda had even fewer, with only 3,000 Wakanda troops plus 30,000 Ethiopian auxiliary troops.

Although they were all black, after being corrupted, King Azuri and the remaining tribal elders of Wakanda clearly did not truly consider the Ethiopians as their own.

This is not surprising. Even in 21st-century Africa, the relationships between various countries and tribes are still in the state of the Eurasian barbaric era, with constant violent conflicts.

Just because we both have black skin doesn't mean we're on the same side. Are you kidding me?
