American comics: The Savior Who Started with Vampires

Chapter 70 The Stolen Second Super Serum

"Unbelievable, unbelievable! This is a super soldier?"

Chester walked forward in shock. Carter was standing in front of the rejuvenated Steve and couldn't help but reach out and touch his bulging pectoral muscles.

"How does it feel?"

A strange light flashed in her eyes as she asked with curiosity.

"I feel taller!"

Looking at this iconic scene, Lin Jue found it extremely interesting; it was definitely Carter's genuine expression of emotion.

Steve slowly scanned the crowd. He no longer had to look up at them. He touched the muscles bulging on his arm and could feel the extraordinary power hidden beneath them.

Looking at Lin Jue, who was now smiling, Steve said with genuine emotion, "Thank you, Colonel!"

He looked at Dr. Erskine beside him: "Thank you for your help all this time, Doctor!"

"Hahaha! My Super Soldier Serum is a complete success!" Dr. Erkins patted Steve's shoulder hard, his face full of satisfaction. His gaze swept across the crowd, and suddenly he seemed to notice something, his expression changing drastically.

The next moment, a gunshot rang out.

boom!

Erkins' chest was instantly pierced by a bullet, and a man in a suit immediately activated the detonator after firing the shot.

Before anyone could react, a violent explosion shook the entire factory, and the glass shattered instantly. He rushed straight to the serum, grabbed the last remaining vial without hesitation, and then ran away quickly.

"Fuck! Fuck!"

The members of parliament and military officers hidden in the crowd roared in unison.

"Damn it! Go after them!"

The soldiers rushed out of the factory in a panic. Lin Jue glanced at Steve, who was lying in front of Erkins. He knew that after this incident, Steve would become an important protagonist throughout the Marvel series—Captain America, who embodies absolute goodness and justice!

Looking at the dying Erkins, Lin Jue's eyes flickered slightly as he slowly approached Steve.

As Erkins laboriously reached out and tapped Steve's chest, the unspoken understanding between the two made Steve instantly grasp the meaning of his action, and he nodded firmly.

Seeing Erkins' arm slowly drooping, an enraged Steve turned and charged toward the spy.

Lin Jue approached the seemingly dead Erkins and gently leaned close to his ear, pretending to listen to his pulse.

"How is it?"

Chester, whose view was blocked, asked anxiously.

Lin Jue slowly lowered Erkins' body, shaking his head helplessly.

"Colonel, you must capture that spy!"

A congressman anxiously pleaded with Lin Jue, not trusting Steve, believing that Lin Jue should be the one to chase after him!

Nodding, Lin Jue looked at Steve's departing figure, then at the top of the factory. The next moment, he grabbed a railing and used his arms to leap onto the second-floor deck. Amid the exclamations of the officers and councilors, Lin Jue moved with agility, like a parkour expert, vaulting over obstacles and leaping off the second-floor roof of the factory, disappearing from the window sill.

On the other side, Steve, who had given chase, leaped quickly with extraordinary speed, rushing out of the factory. With his agile movements, he overtook one soldier after another in the blink of an eye, his gaze fixed on the hastily fleeing figure.

With no obstacles above, Lin Jue quickly overtook Steve, who was currently being affected by the spy bomb and hiding behind obstacles.

Just as he was about to accelerate again after leaping off the rooftop, having completely left the military base, a figure flashed past him like lightning, each step striking the stone bricks creating a violent tremor.

Lin Jue's gaze sharpened slightly, and he subconsciously abandoned his plan.

At this moment, Steve, who only had eyes for the spy, did not notice Lin Jue's abnormality. He only thought that Lin Jue was an officer who was chasing a spy in the middle of the road. Because he had just gained extraordinary power and could not yet fully control this strong body, every time he exerted his full strength, he would accidentally rush out of the road due to the force of the impact.

Finally, due to excessive force, he crashed heavily into an obstacle on the side.

A figure appeared in front of Captain America and pulled his burly body up. The powerful force made Steve feel a slight chill and look at the man beside him in disbelief.

"Colonel?"

"You're not quite used to the power yet, so take it easy. I'll go after them!"

"yes!"

Watching Steve slowly rise from the ruins, Lin Jue's lips curled slightly, and he quickly ran towards the man. His speed was also fast, but not nearly as exaggerated as Steve's; he only maintained the limit that a normal person could reach.

Once he lost sight of Steve, Lin Jue suddenly accelerated, caught up with the car that had just been moving, smashed the glass with a punch, and yanked the man out.

Seeing the serum about to fall to the ground, the man instantly grabbed it. The sudden turn of events startled Lin Jue. The next moment, the man quickly pulled a child from beside him, and the gun in his hand was instantly pointed at the child's head.

"etc!"

Lin Jue quickly gestured and indicated that he would not approach. The next moment, accompanied by a gunshot, Lin Jue instantly fell to the ground.

"No!"

Behind him, Steve, who had just run out of the street, happened to see this scene. He roared fiercely, his eyes bloodshot, and his figure instantly leaped up from not far from the street, jumping a full three meters into the air. The Hydra spy was so frightened that he pushed the child next to him onto his shoulder and jumped into the river from the other side.

Steve was about to run to Lin Jue to check on his injuries, but Lin Jue stopped him, his face slightly pale, and said, "Go check on the child!"

"...!"

Steve felt a pang of pain in his heart. Forcing back his grief, he ran to the side and looked at the spot where the child had fallen. There, the child was desperately struggling in the water, crying out, "Don't worry about me! I can swim!"

Steve rushed to Lin Jue's side again, his hands trembling as he touched Lin Jue's chest, which was slowly bleeding.

"It's nothing! This little injury is no match for me. We were even bombarded at close range by fragmentation grenades while charging the German camp! Go after that guy!"

Lin Jue's body trembled, but he smiled and looked at Steve, who was still hesitant. He couldn't help but reach out and pat his broad shoulder.

Finally, Steve gritted his teeth, gently laid Lin Jue flat on the ground, and rushed in the direction the man had run.

Seeing the dark figure darting away in the river, Steve instantly leaped off the bridge and plunged directly into the icy water, chasing after the submarine that had already started moving.

However, because checking on Lin Jue's injuries took some time, Steve could only watch helplessly as the submarine sped away with a sudden acceleration.

Knowing it was too late, he emerged from the water dejectedly. Realizing what was happening, he quickly swam toward the bridge. As he returned to the bridge, he happened to see a group of soldiers carrying a steel frame and slowly sending Lin Jue toward a military truck.

He quickly stepped forward, but Carter and the others who had arrived with the truck stopped him, saying, "Don't worry, we'll take the colonel to the best hospital!"

Carter looked Steve over with concern, and breathed a slight sigh of relief when she found no wounds.

Soon, the last serum was taken away by a German spy, and news of Professor Erkins' death and Colonel Lin Jue's serious injury from being shot spread throughout the American Congress.

Amid strong condemnation from the U.S. Congress, the U.S. military launched another large-scale bombing campaign against the German forces. This bombing lasted for a full week and quickly dealt a blow to the German army's arrogance on the battlefield.

……

In a military camp, Steve, now back in his uniform, looked dejectedly at Colonel Chester in front of him.

"You can't go to the battlefield! You are our most valuable asset."

"..."

"Stay and participate in this US military outreach program. That way you can contribute your energy and enthusiasm. We'll also see if we can extract serum from your blood during this time."

Chester patted Captain America on the shoulder slowly, sighed softly, and then strode away.

Inside the tent at this moment, only Carter and a sullen-faced Steve remained.

"How is the colonel?"

Steve couldn't help but ask, because besides his own problems, he was most worried about Lin Jue.

"Don't worry, he's out of danger and is currently resting. Oh, and he also asked me to tell you that you are not the same person you used to be, and you must heed Professor Erskine's final teachings!"

Carter's gaze remained fixed on Steve's face.

Steve nodded firmly, then turned and left the military camp. He had to follow orders to carry out the慰问 (comfort and support) activities...
