The Praetorian Guard raised the halberd in front of her. When the time came, she received permission. The emperor who wanted to be close to Latvinia needed to be fully prepared mentally, otherwise it would be easy to be shocked by witnessing his perfection and brilliance.
. She tried hard to suppress her heartbeat and the urge from the bottom of her heart to get closer, and leaned forward to whisper in the monarch's ear.
"My lord, they have arrived."
"It seems that our conversation today can only end here. Managing a country is not a simple matter. It is a pity that I cannot spend all my time on such a relaxed conversation." The Emperor of Latovinia said briefly.
He said with a regretful tone, and his audience also expressed regret. He gave a few more instructions, and then sent T'Challa to the door of the living room, and asked the service staff to guide them into the palace prepared for the Wakanda people in the surface royal city.
Guest room.
"There's only Steve Rogers, I want to talk to him first. Then there's Natasha Romanoff, she's so involved, she has to continue to cooperate." After the Wakandans left, his attitude was
Putting on a thoughtful feeling. "I don't have time to meet everyone, so only a few people can talk to me. As for the rest... I think you can handle it, Diana. By the way, Ji
Dean Malik, it’s time for the U.S. stock market to open, and if he hadn’t been lazy, our acquisition work would have been completed.”
"Do you know how to make the dead speak? Different civilizations have different interpretations of the dead, which are different from the cultural attitudes towards death. The different acceptance of death in different cultures will make people look at the dead from different perspectives. In modern times,
When science really entered people's lives, the fear and uncertainty of new things, as well as the historical background of Christian culture, made European and American people once again embrace a large number of superstitious ideas. It was also at that time that séances began to spread widely.
Even some celebrities at the time believed in it, such as Conan Doyle and his wife."
The emperor of Latvinia talked eloquently in his seat. "Without exception, all psychics are liars, because spiritualism is an extremely dangerous technology. The fact that those psychics can stay alive and enter the upper class proves that they are not
There is no risk to one's life because of channeling, but for Latovinia, séance is a very rigorous science. Although the process of realizing it is quite dangerous, by going deep into the quantum realm without the concept of time to find echoes of the past,
Gain the power to make the dead speak. Do you want the dead to speak, Steve Rogers?"
Steve Rogers was uncomfortable with the small talk at the end of the conversation. It was difficult for him to keep up with the speed of the owner of the place. It was as if the man in front of him was having many conversations at the same time and thinking about a hundred different things.
He didn't understand why the emperor of Latvinia would ask this question after he got the answer that Hulk was healed and comforted.
"Why should I do this?"
"Because Tony Stark called my number."
"I don't understand." Steve Rogers shook his head. He decided not to understand the problem that he couldn't understand. He didn't know what it felt like to be a smart person, but he usually saw Tony Stark and Bruce Banner.
The communication is enough to give people a headache. "So are you agreeing to our request, or do you want to hand us over?"
"If the fake doctor you are talking about wants to go from Germany to Siberia, it will take a long time according to the regular route. I can get you there before the estimated time, so... yes, I can
Let you use the teleportation room, you know what the conditions are, this is strategic level equipment."
"I will appear in front of the media and I will assist the military and police departments in implementing your order."
"A title, an honor, you will be able to use that shield soon." The emperor of Latvinia raised his glass and greeted Steve Rogers on the other side of the long table. Steve Rogers found himself
The old friend seemed particularly lazy, but his body language was alert, as creepy as a lurking beast. "As for whether you want the deceased to speak, you will get an answer. Lady Diana, let the servant
Lead Captain Rogers to the guest room. I want to meet James Buchanan Barnes next. Don't worry, I won't embarrass your little sweetheart. I have to talk to my asylum seeker, otherwise how will I know?
Should I pay the price of facing financial sanctions for him?”
Bucky Barnes was certain that this was not the room Steve Rogers and he were describing.
He didn't understand why he saw a completely different scene from everyone else despite walking through the same door. It wasn't the large living room described by Steve Rogers, nor the luxurious living room described by Natasha Romanoff.
, but a factory filled with iron-black machinery, made of steel and engine oil. The concrete floor of the factory is full of sand and dust, and cables wrapped in insulating rubber are placed randomly in the corners. In the center of the factory, there is a tower made of steel bars.
A huge throne made of gears and cables, and dim industrial lights could only illuminate the bottom of the throne.
"Hello, is anyone here?" He clenched his metal fists, increased his vigilance, and approached the unlit corner with gentle steps. This place reminded him of the place where Alexander Pierce brainwashed him, which was also full of steel and machinery.
The smell, this feeling made him extremely uncomfortable. He carefully wandered on the edge of the shadow, ready to respond to any possible attack.
"Talk to me." The voice was barely above a whisper, but the authority of the speaker was conveyed between the lines.
Like a cold wind blowing on the back of his neck and spine, the blood faded from Bucky Barnes's face, and shivers swept through his body.
He was sure that there was no one on the throne before, but now there was a tall figure shrouded in shadow sitting there. He could barely see that the man was wearing pitch black armor, and his robes clung to the power armor like flowing night.
On the surface, a carefully carved golden eagle is inlaid on the shoulder armor that is shrouded in robes but exposed due to the cold wind. Dense scratches are all over the armor surface, proving that this is not a decoration but an item that has experienced fierce battles.
Armor. A familiar two-handed giant sword was leaning against the throne, and a large-caliber firearm with chemical propellant smoke emitting from the muzzle was placed on the leg armor.
Bucky Barnes took a step forward.
With the help of the bright white moonlight that shone into the factory, he discovered that the person on the throne was wearing a black hood. Outside the black fabric was a gold laurel leaf crown. The person wearing this crown had eyes like a total solar eclipse.
, the hair covered by the hood reflected white light in the moonlight. He could not resist the will conveyed by those eyes, which was a more painful experience than the brainwashing carried out by Alexander Pierce.
"Talk to me."
This time it's an order.
"What the hell!" Stephanie Malik looked angry. "The White House actually said that all the things it had done were done by Hydra? Okay, I admit that some things were done by Hydra.
But it’s not entirely our fault! I mean, the conservatives and radicals of Hydra in the past were just a bunch of little gangsters. There has never been a soil in this world that is more suitable for Hydra to survive than the United States. After all, there is no
Which country can blatantly accept bribes and bribe officials? Hydra is just an...elite thought, an interpretation of order and centralization. There is no place more suitable for elites to take power than a place like the United States, which has a monopoly on education and justice.
We are neither the military-industrial complex nor the Jews, nor even the Freemasons, Moloch cults and pedophiles. Those politicians have the audacity to say that these are all the bad things done by Hydra, as if Hydra is pushing them to commit corruption.
bribery!"
"I don't understand why you are complaining to me about this matter. This matter is beyond my scope of authority." Hammurabi lowered his head and watched Stephanie walking around. He did not understand at all why the Winter Soldier's testimony
It would make her so irritated. "If you don't have any questions, we should put those Winter Soldiers back and Heinrich Zemo will help us wipe out the last trouble." He looked at the frozen people.
The soldiers awakened in the program and the servitors who are transcribing archived testimonies, "their testimonies will be compared with the testimonies of James Buchanan Barnes so that we can decide whether to kill him."
"thanks for your cooperation."
Bucky Barnes opened his eyes dizzily. The dim warm light made him feel like he had just slept. He could not clearly see what the person at the other end of the long table looked like, and he could not even remember his voice.
"You look very tired. Drink this glass of wine and have a good rest. You will be well taken care of. I guarantee that when you wake up tomorrow, you will be as refreshed as if you were taken care of by your mother all night."
