Watching Hawkeye Barton leave, the captain's face was not as happy as expected.
He stood there in a daze for a long time, so much so that Bucky, who was behind him, could not help but worry. Did Barton do something to Steve just now?
But in the end?
With a sigh, the captain's eyes gradually sharpened. He patted his face and said, "Bucky, follow me."
The golden beach, the gorgeous coastline, and the not-so-dense bushes. Following the captain's footsteps, Dong Bing could not help but ask curiously, "Steve, where are we going?"
Looking around, the captain shook his head and said, "I don't know, but it should be in this direction."
Seeing that the captain had no intention of continuing, Dong Bing did not want to continue asking.
Bucky knew very well that he was not as good as Steve. Many people thought that they, who had been injected with the second-generation super soldier serum or the second-generation modified venom serum, were better than the captain who had been injected with the first-generation super soldier serum. After all, they did not have such serious side effects.
However, only those who had been injected with the serum and had a real understanding of the first-generation serum would know the horror of the first-generation serum.
No one was perfect, and there was no perfect person in the world. As early as World War II, Dr. Erskine, who invented the super soldier serum, realized this problem, so he thought of extremes.
Throughout history, those geniuses who had great achievements were all more or less bigoted, or even extreme.
What was the real effect of the super soldier serum?
Could it give humans great power?
Or could it give humans a longer lifespan?
None of them. The first generation super soldier serum. What really made Red Skull afraid back then was that this serum could create a group of lunatics or geniuses.
Just like those geniuses who had achieved great things.
If it was just to become stronger, what was there to be afraid of?
Just kill them with a missile. You could kill one person, a hundred people, or even ten thousand people, but could you kill a hundred thousand people?
The power of an individual was, after all, insignificant.
But a genius' invention or an evil plan was enough to affect the life and death of millions or tens of millions of people.
Therefore, Bucky never asked what the captain was thinking.
Because he knew that he could not understand, and he did not want to understand.
But the next moment, the captain, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped. Under Dong Bing's confused gaze, he asked a strange question.
"Bucky, do you believe in God?"
His eyes flickered with thoughts as he recalled his dreamlike self during World War II. Then, he recalled his involuntary actions under the control of the Hydra, and his experiences with his good friend Steve over the years.
Dong Bing's eyes flashed with reminiscence and complexity, and his face became more serious. "I used to believe it, then I didn't, but now I believe it again."
Looking at the laboratory by the sea not far away, the captain shook his head. "I don't believe it. I only believe in myself. Alright, we've found our target."
Looking at the laboratory in front of him, Dong Bing's eyes flashed with doubt.
"What is this place?"
However, the captain didn't answer. Instead, he led Dong Bing into the laboratory and opened the doors with great familiarity.
However, what was interesting was that the captain didn't enter Dr. Hammond's room. Instead, he went to Dr. Henry's lounge, as if he knew the place very well and had already found his target.
Finally, the captain found a hidden compartment under Dr. Henry's desk.
There was a syringe inside. The outside was metal, and its thickness was close to that of a medium-sized test tube. The inside was spiral-shaped. One of the needles contained a blue transparent liquid, and the other was in a vacuum state. Looking at the syringe in front of him?
There was a disturbing madness in the captain's eyes. He said in a rather calm voice, "I'm a thinker.
"I'm a person who's good at thinking. I know very well that whether it's SHIELD, Wakanda, or the United States, they can't be trusted, so I've been prepared for this for a long time."
Preparations?
Preparations for what?
Bucky's eyes flickered with confusion, but the captain didn't want to explain.
Did he have to tell Bucky that not only S.H.E.L.D., but he also had spies on Skull Island, and it was when he and America were inseparable?
He wouldn't say anything. At most, Dong Bing would see the news of a Chinese scientist being cruelly killed and thrown into the sea one day.
Looking at the rotting corpse, he might nod calmly and say, "Oh."
Then?
There was no "then". Bucky didn't understand, and he didn't need to understand.
However, there was one thing that piqued Bucky's curiosity. He saw a circus monkey riding a unicycle on a rope printed on the syringe.
For some reason, this seemingly brave and fearless monkey seemed to be in pain, but it also felt very desperate and crazy. It was full of indescribable hostility.
In short, it gave people a very strange and complicated feeling.
Dong Bing wanted to take a closer look, but the captain had already put away the syringe. Although he was curious, Dong Bing chose to remain silent like before.
At the same time, in a shallow beach hundreds of kilometers away, there was a huge Dragon Bamboo forest next to it. Compared to the Dragon Bamboo in the outside world?
This type of bamboo was much thicker. Each of them was nearly 100 meters long, and some of the stronger ones could even exceed 100 meters.
Rustle. A gust of wind blew, and the bamboo forest began to sway. Amid the rustling of the bamboo leaves, a faint thumping sound could be heard.
Whoosh!
A bamboo pole fell from above. It was a dark green bamboo pole with protruding joints, and there was even a fresh bamboo branch at the end. It looked no different from the other bamboos around it.
However, the next moment, the bamboo jumped up.
There were even more than a dozen bamboos around it that jumped together. It looked very interesting, like a jumping bamboo spirit.
However, if the bamboo forest was removed, it would be found that this was not real bamboo, nor was it a beautiful spirit. It was a kind of spider with super long legs.
This kind of creature usually lived in the bamboo forest and lived on the unlucky people who occasionally passed by.
In most cases, this kind of creature would not move until it met its prey.
But today?
One, two, seven or eight of them, they followed the path in the bamboo forest in the past, desperately moving their bodies. Was it because spring had come?
No, spring did not come. What came was a skeleton crawler that looked like a lizard. Its head was wrapped in a layer of white bone plates, and it had two thick arms and a strong tail.
Its overall structure was strange. It did not look like a creature from Earth. Instead, it felt like an alien.
It grabbed a section of dragon bamboo that was trying to escape. With a crisp crack, the alloy exoskeleton was crushed, revealing the snow-white muscles that were wrapped in sticky liquid.
A painful roar came from above, and the entire bamboo forest seemed to be shaking. However, this huge spider that was close to a hundred meters long didn't attack. Instead, with a crisp crack, the 21st joint of the spider leg, which was about 50 meters away, was broken.
Sticky liquid dripped down. Compared to the skeleton crawler, the spider that was bigger in size fled in panic.
However, a despairing scene appeared. The skeleton crawler didn't chase after the spider that escaped with its broken leg, but the surrounding spiders blocked its escape route.
Picking up the spider leg on the ground, the skeleton crawler swallowed it whole along with the exoskeleton. Pushed aside by the other spiders, the injured spider looked helplessly at the skeleton crawler that was approaching it.
In fact, if all the spiders attacked at the same time, the skeleton crawler would definitely die. After all, it was only one of the countless offspring of the overlord skeleton crawler on Skull Island.
However, no one could guarantee that if the skeleton crawler died, there wouldn't be another skeleton crawler that was even more ferocious.
Although the skeleton crawler would often kill them, it would still protect them when they encountered an enemy that they couldn't defend against.
However, just when the injured spider was waiting for its death, the skeleton crawler that was eating suddenly stopped. It looked up in confusion as if it had discovered something but it was uncertain.
However, in the next moment?
Licking its scarlet tongue, the skeleton crawler's murderous eyes flashed with excitement. It threw away the food that was about to enter its mouth and crawled out of the bamboo forest like a madman.
It was a stream. The river water had receded from the shore, and there was no solid mud.
In front of the skeleton crawler's line of sight, a creature that looked like a dinosaur was lying in the stream that could only cover half of its body.
There was a layer of hard bone spikes on its broad back. Although it was soaked in the muddy water and a thin layer of yellow soil had formed on it, one could still see the crystal-like transparent crystal that shone like a gem.
Stinky and sticky saliva flowed out from the gaps between its teeth uncontrollably. Without any hesitation, it faced the delicious food that was emanating from its body.
As if it had gone mad, the skeleton crawler jumped up and tore at it. Then, a loud crack was heard.
Its teeth were broken!
