Superman Marvel Adventures

“Haha, of course, because I’m Constantine.” Constantine shrugged and said, “Let’s go. The people over there should be surprised by the sudden appearance of a few people.”

So the group used Zatanna's magic portal to return to the abandoned factory where they had been, and sure enough, they saw the other Avengers staring blankly at the Winter Soldier lying there.

"What's going on?" Hawkeye asked Constantine.

Constantine handed Captain America to his henchman Falcon and said, "That's how it is. You guys got caught in a trap set by governments around the world, and then Iron Man and Superman discovered that their father's killer was Bucky, so they killed him. As for Captain America, he was too heartbroken and I knocked him unconscious."

"What? Superman killed Bucky?" Falcon exclaimed.

"Doesn't Superman never kill people? I remember he's one of the few superheroes who doesn't kill enemies," Ant-Man said, looking incredulous.

“After all, it’s a blood feud, and it seems that while we were fighting, another battle broke out on the other side. The government launched a nuclear missile at Superman, so he’s no longer the Superman he used to be,” Zatanna said, shaking her head as she sat to the side.

“Speaking of which, I also discovered something when I went out to buy some things. It seems that Superman’s intelligent butler, Athena, has declared war on the entire world government, directly paralyzing all military electronic equipment on Earth.” Falcon seemed to remember something and immediately said, “And I heard that Athena seems to have detonated two nuclear bombs.”

"Isn't Superman alright?" Ant-Man asked, puzzled.

"This might have happened sometime after Superman was hit by the nuclear bomb. Although Superman is fine now, the AI ​​system called Athena certainly won't let those people off the hook. They have to be taught a lesson." Constantine said calmly, "Perhaps he'll be fine in a few days, but people in this world may not be able to see Superman anymore."

"What do you mean?" Ant-Man asked, looking completely bewildered. "I still want to fight alongside Superman."

"Perhaps an opportunity will come soon, and it will be the last one," Constantine said calmly.

"What do you mean?" Falcon and Hawkeye asked, somewhat puzzled.

“Besides the Superman killing incident, something else happened this time: a guy named Red Skull appeared, and I discovered the power of a legendary powerful being within him,” Constantine explained.

"Red Skull? Didn't he disappear ninety years ago?" As a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent, Hawkeye knew some secrets and immediately asked upon hearing about Red Skull.

“I don’t know what happened either. I only heard that person’s name from Captain America. But that’s not the point. The point is that this person’s return means that Earth is being watched by some legendary being.” Constantine said with a serious expression.

"In other words, that Red Skull guy is about to start a war." Zatanna rolled her eyes at Constantine, seeing the others' confused looks, and then explained.

"War? Yes, if it's Red Skull, it's certainly possible."

Hawkeye knew Red Skull; he was the leader of Hydra. Now that he was back, he would surely regroup the hidden Hydra members and launch another war, especially if someone like Constantine had already gained absolute power.

"So that's why you said I could fight alongside Superman?" Ant-Man looked miserable and said, "I'd rather not."

“It’s not certain whether Superman will join the fight,” Zatanna shook her head and said, “Don’t get your hopes up too high. Besides, it seems like we’re wanted by all the countries. We should find somewhere to hide before the war starts.” Zatanna glanced at Black Panther and said.

"Yes, I've already arranged for people to come, and they'll be sending a transport plane over soon." Black Panther had already removed his mask and smiled slightly upon hearing Zatanna's words.

“Moreover, with just a few of us, we are no match for the entity that is about to appear, so we need to find some support,” Constantine said.

“Alright, leave this to me. After all, you’re not very familiar with these things.” Hawkeye stepped forward and said, “Besides, I’m an agent, so I won’t be easily discovered.”

“Alright, you can go find some support, and I also want to ask our world for help to see if we can get a few people to help. After all, this enemy is more powerful than ever before.” Constantine shrugged and said, “We can’t just watch this world get destroyed.”

Chapter 428 The Eve of the Storm (Part 2)

Meanwhile, after Red Skull tricked his way out of Constantine's clutches, he piloted a Quinjet fighter away from Siberia. The reason he chose such a new fighter was because the Tesseract had transported him to an advanced civilization. There, he met that person—the one who made him incapable of any resistance. After learning some of that person's plans, he volunteered to go to Earth to help that person, offering in return control of the entire planet.

Therefore, Red Skull took this matter very seriously and secretly planned it for half a year. In other words, all the designs related to the Avengers were made by this person. Zemo was able to find some of the old members of the Hydra organization who were hiding so quickly because Red Skull sent people to give him some clues. Otherwise, it would be strange if he could find the person he was looking for by searching all over the world with just a few clues.

To be on the safe side, Red Skull didn't contact anyone else or come to Earth herself. Instead, she controlled certain Hydra agents through other means to accomplish this task. Because she was completely unaware of Hydra's base in Siberia and the phrases used to control the Winter Soldier, she chose to return to Earth today to unexpectedly kill Zemo. Just as she was preparing to retreat, Bucky and Captain America arrived. With her own plans in mind, Red Skull didn't meet with Captain America but continued to act according to Zemo's script, turning Iron Man and Captain America against each other – that's the kind of drama she wanted.

As for his encounter with Constantine and the others, that was purely accidental. He obviously didn't expect Captain America to call for backup. Fortunately, he was able to successfully leave Siberia in the end. Now, what he wants to do is to gather the Hydra members hidden all over the world and revive the Hydra organization!

"Long live Hydra! Heh, it's been a long time since I've heard such words." A wicked smile appeared on Red Skull's red skull face as he said, "Let's go check out that place first; that guy can be of great help to me."

While remotely controlling a former Hydra member in another dimension, he accidentally learned a secret: somewhere in the world, there was a Hydra base unknown to anyone, where a very important person existed for Red Skull—well, it can no longer be called a person, but rather a very important being.

Controlling the Quinjet fighter, Red Skull arrived over a certain country according to his memory, and luckily, he did not alert anyone. Well, actually, it was because Athena controlled the military electronic equipment of all countries that Red Skull was able to escape being discovered. He then made his way smoothly to a Hydra base disguised as an abandoned square.

He walked into the secret room with great familiarity, turned on the power, and then saw that all the monitoring equipment was already running.

"Heh heh, my friend, are you surprised to see me?" Red Skull said with a sinister smile.

"Damn it, I thought you were dead." A strange electronic voice came from a speaker installed somewhere, saying, "In my calculations, you shouldn't be here."

"That just means your calculations were wrong, or something went wrong." Red Skull walked step by step to a very old-fashioned desktop computer and lifted the cloth covering it.

"Yes, my calculations did go wrong. I thought our personnel were well hidden within S.H.I.E.L.D., but I didn't expect them to be exposed so quickly by that damned Adam Stark," the electronic voice said harshly.

“So, I’m back, Dr. Zola!” Red Skull looked at Dr. Zola’s image on the computer screen and said coldly, “I need you to notify all Hydra members to reconvene in Berlin, Germany.”

"But we are no match for those super heroes."

Because the desktop computer where Dr. Zola was located was an old machine, and because the people who left last time had shut off all power except for essential power supplies for one of Dr. Zola's plans, Dr. Zola was unaware of some outside intelligence.

"It seems you've been trapped here for quite some time," Red Skull said calmly, then added, "The Avengers still have members who no longer have the will to be enemies with us. They've all encountered some problems, and I'm not the same person I used to be."

Dr. Zola looked at Red Skull, thought for a moment, and then said, "Alright, I'm willing to continue helping you, but I want an equal footing, not to be a tool that's used and discarded like before!"

"That depends on your strength," Red Skull said calmly.

Actually, he became somewhat arrogant last time due to the power of the Cosmic Cube. In addition, the enhancement serum not only strengthened his body but also increased his negative emotions, which led him to go mad and suffer defeat. This time, he will not let such a thing happen again.

"See that machine behind you? Activate it, and I'll have the ability to surf the internet freely. From what I've observed, a complete network system should already be in place in this era; this is where I can truly unleash my power," Dr. Zola said, pointing to a machine on the computer screen.

Red Skull knew that to complete the task assigned by that person, he needed the help of more people, and he was confident that he wouldn't let Hydra rebel against him. Therefore, he did not hesitate to do what Dr. Zola asked and started the machine.

Dr. Zola watched Red Skull's actions through the monitoring system installed throughout the base. When he saw Red Skull start the machine, he already knew that the person in front of him was no longer the arrogant and rude guy he remembered. He vaguely felt the same way they did when they first met.

“You have indeed changed,” Dr. Zola suddenly said.

"The Soldier Serum amplified my negative emotions countless times, so at that time I was basically a monster controlled by my own power," Red Skull said expressionlessly. "However, after experiencing some things on other planets, I have completely brought this influence under control."

"What are you planning to do now that you're back?" Dr. Zola suddenly asked.

"How? Hmph, Dr. Zola, have you forgotten your original wish?" Red Skull smirked, revealing a very awkward smile.

"I see. Alright, I have a general understanding of everything. I will help you notify those who are hiding. As for whether you can win them back, that depends on your own abilities." Dr. Zola is not human now, but a computer with human memories, so there are some things he can't help with.

"That's why I'm here," Red Skull said calmly. "Just inform them. As for how to subdue those people, that's my problem."

“Alright, I’ve already notified them. Although those guys are indeed asking, I’ve given them the highest order to come to Berlin immediately. You’ll have to handle the rest yourself. I’ve connected to the outside network and discovered something very interesting.” Dr. Zola said, suddenly revealing a strange smile and laughing heartily.

"Oh, what has made the usually calm Dr. Zola so excited?" Red Skull asked with interest.

"I know why you said humans wouldn't help humanity. It turns out the US dropped a nuclear bomb on that guy, which caused his AI assistant Athena to paralyze the military forces of almost all countries," Dr. Zola said, looking as if she were divinely ordained.

"But I've already seen him, and he's still fine," the Red Skull said expressionlessly. Well, actually, his head was just a red skull, so of course he wouldn't have any expression.

“Oh, that’s a real shame. But as long as we only target the government, I don’t think he’ll continue to help the US government.” Dr. Zola said firmly. “Moreover, what really makes me happy is not this matter, but the fact that the US government is preparing to build a system called Skynet to resist Athena. And I just discovered that this Skynet system seems to be the design I proposed when I was at S.H.I.E.L.D., and they haven’t changed any of the core designs.”

"So that means?" Red Skull asked in surprise.

"In other words, I can now hack into their system and control the entire Skynet system through the backup plan I left behind. As long as I can turn the tables and take control of Skynet after they have completed its construction, then your plan will be a piece of cake!" Dr. Zola declared definitively.

"Hahahahahahahahahahaha!" Red Skull burst into loud laughter upon hearing this. "God bless Hydra! This is...!"

Chapter 429 The Eve of the Storm (Part 3)

Chapter 429 The Eve of the Storm (Part 3)

In a spacious meeting room of the Watchtower, Adam had originally built the Watchtower according to his memory, intending to make it the headquarters of the Justice League. Therefore, it was built with a particularly spacious layout, including various meeting rooms, lounges, and entertainment facilities, all to keep the superheroes entertained after returning to the Watchtower. Unfortunately, before he could develop the Justice League into the way he remembered it, the place was already deserted.

Getting back to the main point, after Adam finished talking with Tony, he waited until Logan, Jean Grey, Storm, and the others finished their meeting before meeting with them.

"Thank goodness you're alright, otherwise I would have felt guilty for the rest of my life." Storm said as soon as she saw Adam, she went over and hugged him.

Adam smiled slightly, patted Storm on the back, and said, "Hehe, look, I'm fine now. It was just a nuclear bomb."

"I never imagined the military would be so ruthless as to actually use a nuclear weapon," Storm sighed.

"Actually, you mutants aren't the only ones they're targeting. Almost all superhumans worldwide have already been secretly killed by them." Adam shook his head slightly and said, "So, what you need to do now is protect yourselves and develop the mutant race properly."

"Sigh, I wonder if there's any place for us mutants in this world," Pyro sighed from the side.

"Speaking of which, the reason I called you all here is actually to help you resolve this matter," Adam suddenly interjected.

"Resolve this matter?" Jean Grey asked, puzzled. "What do you mean?"

Adam was slightly taken aback. It seemed that Jean Grey had already guessed what he was going to say. He smiled nonchalantly and said, "I think you've already guessed it. That's right, I want to give you the entire watchtower."

"Give us the watchtower?" Storm exclaimed in shock. "How can you do that? We even caused you to be attacked by the military before, how can you accept us giving you the watchtower now?"

"Don't get excited, listen to me." Adam waved his hand to quiet everyone down before saying, "Actually, I was already planning to leave Earth to find Christine. I only came to you to say goodbye, but I didn't expect this to happen, so I decided to give you the watchtower."

"But~~~~" Jean Grey was about to say something when Adam interrupted her.

"No buts, it's settled! You don't want those mutant students to continue wandering, do you? This place is actually quite big, and you can modify the main computer of the watchtower so that it can quickly lock onto mutant targets and then protect those people." Adam looked at the people around him and said, "Isn't this better? I don't know when I'll be able to come back, so it's better to let you use the watchtower as a shelter since it's not being used."

“Alright, I thank you on behalf of the students.” Finally, Logan gritted his teeth and said to Adam, “Don’t worry, I will protect this watchtower as if it were my own child, and when you come back, I will give you a complete one!”

“Sigh, you’re overreacting. After all, a watchtower is just a shelter. I gave it to you so you would have a place to retreat to. I believe you can protect it,” Adam said with a smile.

Logan didn't say anything more after hearing this. He simply walked over and hugged his friend tightly, despite the age difference, and patted his broad back heavily to express his friendship and gratitude.

============Time flies=============

Three months have passed in the blink of an eye, and the world is in a relatively calm state. Of course, almost everyone and all government groups know that this is just the calm before the storm.

Although Adam had met with various governments two months earlier to express his stance and had dealt a very tough blow to General Trask, the person in charge of the mutant timeline, the meeting ended harmoniously afterward.

Although this harmony is merely a facade put on by governments around the world, no one is willing to go to war with Superman in the near future. After all, he is a monster that cannot be killed even by a nuclear bomb, and some countries have suggested that it would be better to suspend their plans.

On this point, some countries, led by the United States, have expressed their opposition, claiming that their national dignity has been threatened by a citizen and that the US government will never compromise. As a result, during these seemingly peaceful months, governments around the world have actually accelerated their analysis of extraterrestrial technology and hope to one day create a weapon to restrain superhumans.

In addition to these activities by various governments, the Chess Club, with the strong support of the US government, finally began to build the framework of the Skynet system and continuously tested and perfected it. During this process, Dr. Zola, who had his thoughts stored in the computer, arrived at the Chess Club's secret base through cyberspace. Using some backup plans he had left behind, he successfully devoured the Skynet system's intelligent program and finally quietly waited for the right moment to arrive.

After Red Skull reunited with the remaining Hydra members in Berlin who had originally intended to come here, he went underground and, after three months of development, miraculously rebuilt the entire Hydra organization, even recalling some high-ranking officials to his side. It's unclear what he's up to.

As for Constantine and his team, who were on the last leg of the journey, they were quietly waiting for Red Skull to make his move in Wakanda, a country that appeared to be poor and backward but was actually rich and technologically advanced. Hawkeye had already sent the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents scattered around the world back to the agency and supported Coulson as the new director of S.H.I.E.L.D. to begin investigating matters related to Red Skull.

After Constantine made contact with Batman, he was about to quit when he heard that his world couldn't send any help. But then the Flash, Barry Allen, said that he could go to another parallel world and recruit some superheroes as helpers, and that he would come to this world to provide assistance soon!

These are some of the things that happened beneath the seemingly peaceful surface of this world. Of course, all of this seems to have nothing to do with Adam. For him, waiting until the whole world is in despair, then stepping in to save it, and then leaving it, are things that have already been decided long ago.

Therefore, after Adam consolidated his assets in the first month and gave them all to his brother Tony Stark, he stayed in the Watchtower to begin building a spaceship that would allow him to travel freely through the universe.

Although Adam could survive in outer space, it would be too stupid and too slow to travel through space by flying. No matter how fast Adam was, he still couldn't compare to those spaceships that could make space jumps.

Adam had never seen a spaceship before, but don't forget that he possessed the technological memories of Superman or most of the Justice League members. Therefore, after thinking for a few weeks, he immediately began to work on making various parts and materials for the spaceship. For Adam, who could work continuously for 24 hours without eating or drinking, completing a spaceship and conducting a test in a short period of time was not impossible.

On this day, Adam was in a large warehouse in the Watchtower, designing some parts of a spaceship with Athena, when Tony Stark walked in from outside.

“Hey bro, how’s your thing going?” Tony asked.

"What do you think this is? A spaceship? It's not something that can be built so easily," Adam said, rolling his eyes.
