I get stronger by sunbathing, just like Superman.

We need to think of another way.

Nick Fury's initial motivation for forming this unit was simple, unlike that of the Avengers.

If the Avengers are the visible signboard...

The Thunder Commandos are like a sword in the darkness!

They specialize in carrying out shady missions, but not for Nick Fury's own benefit or the selfish desires of certain powerful individuals.

It is for the sake of this society and this country!

In fact,

This project was a collaboration between S.H.I.E.L.D. and the U.S. military.

Without the support of the national military, even Nick Fury, the head of S.H.I.E.L.D., could not come up with the massive research funding required.

But this also means that,

This project is no longer something he can decide on his own.

Having tasted success, the US military also wanted a piece of the pie, but clearly, a mere six super soldiers were far from enough to satisfy their appetite.

Nick Fury also kept making excuses.

He knew perfectly well what those politicians wanted to do with the super soldiers…

Therefore, in the early stages of the project, he did not let the military know that he only had three original samples, and that he used them all up as soon as the serum was completed…

Want more?

Why don't you go to Wakanda to get it?

As long as you can get it, I'll produce as much as you want for you.

Nick Fury's behavior of taking money and then abandoning it has infuriated those politicians.

But they could only swallow their anger and obediently try to figure out how to negotiate with Wakanda to obtain their national treasures...

The result can be imagined.

When those high-ranking officials were subjected to a brutal rebuke by the Wakanda spokesperson at the UN meeting...

Nick Fury was sitting in his office, secretly gloating.

Since the emergence of the Hydra traitor Alexander Pierce within the World Security Council, his already low level of trust in state institutions has plummeted to rock bottom.

They completely forgot one thing: Pierce got his ministerial position because he pushed himself into it...

Chapter 225 An Encounter

At night, there are stars.

In the deserted wilderness, Quicksilver Pietro, his body stained red with blood, finally collapsed to the ground, exhausted.

Wanda fell off his back.

The impact of the fall finally woke Wanda, who had been unconscious for several hours.

Unlike Pietro, who possesses superhuman physical abilities due to his high-speed movement, she...

Without the Crimson Magic, she is just an ordinary person.

"Pietro... Pietro!"

She got up, looked at her brother lying beside her, barely alive, and tears streamed down her face. She shook his body repeatedly.

But all I felt was a warm, smooth touch on my hand.

She raised her hand and saw that her entire palm was stained with thick, fresh blood!

Upon closer inspection, she discovered that Pietro had a total of six bullet holes in his body, and blood was still seeping out.

"No...no!"

In a panic, Wanda frantically pressed on the wound, trying to stop the bleeding, but the gunshot wounds were spread across his entire upper body, and she couldn't press down on them with both hands...

She tried to stop the wound with crimson magic, but the more panicked she became, the less she could use magic.

"Wanda..."

The dying Pietro softly called his sister's name, even though his consciousness had faded to the point where he could feel nothing.

He still managed to raise his arm with difficulty, spreading his five fingers...

"I'm here... I'm right here!"

Tears streaming down her face, Wanda grabbed his hand, her voice trembling so much she could barely speak.

Pietro's lips twitched a few times, as if he wanted to say something, but having lost too much blood, he no longer had the strength to utter a sound.

Shot six times, yet he still carried her across a state to escape capture; it's a miracle he's still alive.

But as time goes by, the miracle will soon disappear…

"Help! Please, someone help us!"

Seeing her younger brother about to die, the helpless Wanda cried out for help, raising her head.

But looking around, the suburbs were utterly desolate at night, and the distant highway was deserted.

There wasn't even a single car.

Just when Wanda was about to despair...

Perhaps God heard his call; at the end of the dark highway,

Two dazzling lights appeared!

Those are two car headlights!

Wanda saw it as a lifeline! She frantically cried for help towards the car!

But then something happened that plunged her into despair once again…

The car didn't slow down at all; in fact, it slammed on the gas and sped right past her!

Wanda froze on the spot.

It was as if his soul had been ripped out...

...

...

"Did you hear anything?"

In the car, Elena, who was sitting in the passenger seat, suddenly took off her headphones, turned her head and asked Lei Ming, who was driving.

"Have it?

You must have misheard.

Lei Ming said nonchalantly, glancing at the rearview mirror without making a sound, before quickly looking away.

He did hear it, but he wasn't in the mood to do good deeds today...

He's not a living person, and the twins have nothing to do with him, so why waste time?

But Elena was clearly determined to go against him…

"But I clearly heard it!"

She countered, noting that his expression clearly indicated he was absolutely certain he hadn't misheard; he even rolled down the car window and leaned out to look back.

But it was pitch black at night, there were no streetlights nearby, and the car had already passed quite a distance from where it had just been.

So she saw nothing.

"Ray! I really heard it! Someone is calling for help!"

She turned back, looking at Lei Ming with a serious gaze, her tone still resolute.

"I told you you misheard..."

Lei Ming remained calmly on the steering wheel, while gradually increasing the pressure on the accelerator.

He continued:

"There would be no one in the middle of nowhere at night."

You must be hallucinating because you were too tired from the check-up today. Don't you know how sensitive my ears are?

You should go home and rest early.

After saying that, he changed the subject:

"Speaking of which..."

You're not angry with me anymore? Before, because of that Dr. Zhao, you ignored me the whole way..."

Don't try to change the subject!

Elena interrupted him with a serious expression, then pointed behind her.
