“Pa!” After a 10-minute film was shown, fluorescent lights lit up again in a dark room.

This screening hall was not big, and was only about thirty square meters. At this moment, there were more than ten people sitting in the room. It looked like a middle school classroom that was playing educational movies.

However, strangely enough, most of these people, with the exception of a few, paid little attention to the content of the film. They talked quietly around, or played with the latest smartphones, sending text messages to acquaintances. Among them was a young man wearing a mask and casual clothes who was skateboarding around the screening hall.

Of course, this wasn’t entirely their fault. Not only was this short film a long time ago, the black and white scenes were blurry, but the battles inside didn’t seem so intense and exciting for experts like them.

The projection of the screen on the wall was still on the last frame. On top of it was a young man wearing a British lieutenant’s uniform with a smile on his face. In his hand was a dripping blood package. Behind him was a dark passageway. The environment looked like a passageway of an underground bomb shelter.

The young man seemed to have just suffered serious injuries. The bandage wrapped around his waist was stained with blood on both sides of his body. It should be a piercing wound on his abdomen. If Qin Lun was here now, he would discover that the person on the screen was him, or “Joey,” a scene from his battle with Catherine, a female professor at Green College.

“Gentlemen, stop what you’re doing!” Looking at the casual subordinates below, the “teacher” on the podium covered his face and looked helplessly at the “monitor” in the front row of the seat.

In terms of appearance, this “teacher” could not be regarded as a teacher. He was a big black man with a rigid expression. He wore a black leather trench coat and a black eyepatch on his face. His cold face seemed to have the words “strangers do not approach” written on it.

Of course, these people weren’t real teachers and students. That “monitor” was a tall and healthy blonde youth. Although he was burly and muscular, he had a handsome face and always had a gentle smile. He was very different from that big, reckless man.

The young man’s face looked to be only twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. His blonde hair had been shaved into a small flat head, and his manner carried the heroic aura of a soldier.

At times like this, the blonde youth couldn’t help but laugh when he saw the look of “teacher” asking for help. He didn’t mind teasing the boss and friend on the stage in the slightest.

However, he had just seen the old video film, but he found that he did not have any interest in it. The memories that he had thought he had long forgotten appeared again like a scar that had been reopened. Blood flowed out, and a faint sadness couldn’t help but wrap around his heart.

“Everyone, please be quiet!” The young man did not even raise his head. He clasped his fists and supported his chin, his voice somewhat deep.

The young man’s voice wasn’t very loud, but the dozen or so companions in the room couldn’t help but feel a chill in their hearts as they stopped what they were doing. Several companions who were playing with their phones looked at him in surprise. They put down their phones at the same time. Even the masked youth who was playing on the skateboard and joking with others was slightly stunned. He picked up the skateboard under his armpit and quietly returned to his seat.

“Stephen, what’s wrong?” A charming red-haired girl beside the young man frowned slightly and placed her hand on the young man’s shoulder with concern.

All the people gathered in this room were experts, each of them had their own unique and proud personalities. There was no subordinate relationship between them, but they respected each other. To some extent, they could even say that they shared the same ideals and cherished each other.

However, regardless of whether they were very old seniors or newborn kids, each of them had deeds that could be called legends by the world. He had experienced more emotions and emotions than ordinary people. At the same time, he also shouldered responsibilities and ideas that ordinary people could not bear.

Therefore, they had also developed extremely sensitive nerves. The young man’s words were not binding on them, but they could hear the heavy weight coming from the depths of their souls. It reminded everyone of the painful memories they had engraved in their lives.

“Nothing!” The handsome young man called Stephen by the red-haired girl took a deep breath and raised his head again. He looked at the cold one-eyed black man on the podium and said in a deep voice, “Nick, I’m in a bad mood now! If you don’t explain why we were allowed to watch this video from more than 50 years ago, even if we were locked up for a week, I would still beat you up!”

A trace of astonishment flashed past the one-eyed black man who had always looked as stiff as granite. He and Stephen were not only colleagues, but also very close friends. They could be said to be close friends of life and death. With Stephen’s usually gentle personality, this was the heaviest thing he could say.

“Looks like what happened in Casablanca back then was a huge blow to him!” A thought flashed through Nick’s mind, but he immediately threw it away. Now was not the time to think about it.

“I called you here for the terrorist attack that just happened in Washington!” Nick quickly sorted out his thoughts and said with a serious expression, “Perhaps you saw similar news on your way here. However, due to the sudden occurrence of this incident, most of you, other than the members of SHIELD who participated in the war, do not know the real situation because the government has regulated the relevant news reports.”

“Cut!” Hearing Nick’s words, a few of the members in the room who weren’t too interested in the government couldn’t help but curl their lips, only to see Nick and a few other SHIELD members’ serious expressions, and swallow back the sarcastic words that rushed to their mouths.

“In Washington, D.C. Hundreds of buildings, including the White House and the Pentagon, have been burned down and public property has been lost. So far, the number of casualties is still on the rise. Although there are no accurate data, due to the dense population of the Special Administrative Region, the preliminary estimate is 400,000 to 600,000. Nagasaki and Hiroshima during World War II. ”

Nick’s face turned ashen when he said this. This terrorist attack was a great insult to the SHIELD, which claimed to be the World Peace Shield. The most ironic thing was that the main reason for the huge casualties was because the aircraft carrier SHIELD designed and manufactured was stolen by the Hydra members hidden in the organization.

Although the culprit of this terrorist attack was eventually eliminated by the Black Widow and other SHIELD superhumans led by the captain of the United States, serious reports of casualties and property losses stabbed everyone and caused irreparable damage to the reputation of SHIELD.

“I already said that there is no need for a double-edged sword like SHIELD to exist!” Knowing the consequences of this terrorist attack, everyone in the room was somewhat silent. One of the middle-aged scholars held his glasses and said coldly.

“Dr. Bruce, this is not a good time to complain!” Nick sighed. As the director of SHIELD, although this iron man from the military looked incomparably strong, his heart was filled with self-blame.

“Nick, as the main participant in this terrorist attack, I know more about it than you do!” Stephen Rogers, Captain America’s gaze darkened, but he quickly regained his composure and said discontentedly, “It’s just that you still haven’t given me an explanation for this video!”

“Stephen, although you are the main force this time, you did not participate in the’clean-up ‘work. In fact, we captured some Hydra survivors after the war and obtained some important information.”

After a moment of silence, Nick suddenly said, “He’s back!”

“That’s impossible. He’s already dead!” Stephen immediately understood this strange remark. His expression changed. He stood up and subconsciously collapsed his chair. He turned around angrily and didn’t even turn around to listen to Nick’s explanation. “I don’t want to listen to your story anymore. It’s a waste of time!”

Captain America’s furious departure left the group of familiar comrades in the room dumbfounded. They had never seen such a violent side of the gentle Stephen.

“Nick, what’s going on?” A middle-aged gentleman with a moustache in the room looked up at the one-eyed black man seriously.

The middle-aged gentleman had been leaning back against the chair and dozing off with his eyes closed. Even when everyone was quiet, he did not sit upright and seemed to be quite independent. The few companions beside him didn’t seem to be surprised either. They understood the temperament of this prodigal genius very well and didn’t intentionally warn him.

It wasn’t until Stephen Rogers slammed the door that he felt the explosive anger in his friend’s chest and had to face it head-on.

“Tony … we all know that with Stephen’s real age, he is the oldest of us.” Nick’s rigid face revealed a bitter smile for the first time. “Although we are all Stephen’s friends, we are limited to this era and cannot share the memories and feelings of the past with him.”

Indeed, half a century ago, the invincible captain of the United States in government propaganda had suffered an unforgettable defeat alongside the then Allied superhumans. Next, I’ll show you a top-secret archive that never appeared in history about a battle at the end of World War II in 1945, the Battle of Casablanca!

…

Half an hour later, the door to the battle room opened again, and a dozen experts with serious expressions filed out.

However, as soon as they reached the door, they saw Stephen leaning against the wall with his head raised and his back absent-mindedly. Apparently, Captain America had calmed down from his rage. He didn’t really leave this place. Instead, he listened to Nick’s information at the door.

Everyone looked at the rare strong warrior who had lost his composure and looked at each other, not knowing how to comfort his companion. Quite a few of them had experienced being robbed of their loved ones or comrades by the dark forces, and knew that they could only rely on themselves to overcome this kind of pain.

“… Stephen, this isn’t like you. Cheer up, you’re our captain!” Tony Stark, the middle-aged gentleman who had just walked over to the young man with a stern expression, gave those who knew him an inexplicable sense of delight.

However, this genius and prodigal son was clearly not good at comforting people. Seeing that Stephen ignored him, he immediately curled his lips and said, “We will avenge you this time. Tell that old Nazi man who was eliminated by the times that this is no longer a new era for him to continue to commit violence!”

Hearing Tony’s words, Stephen slowly lowered his head and looked at the middle-aged gentleman expressionlessly.

If you don’t know how to comfort people, don’t comfort them, okay? Everyone’s faces twitched as they cursed Tony Stark in their hearts. Captain America seemed to be an old World War II fellow!

‘”Cough cough, Stephen, I mean that old Nazi, not you” Iron Man quickly realized his language problem and explained awkwardly.

“Tony … shut up!” The superhuman experts gathered at the entrance shouted at him in unison.
