Chapter 130 Hydra Captain

The former site of S.H.I.E.L.D. Strategic Science Corps underground base
Captain America Steve Rogers and Natasha Romanoff slowly entered the secret base hidden under the base.
At this moment, they knew nothing about the changes in the outside world. According to the contents of the mechanical USB flash drive provided by Nick Fury,

They finally found this place and began to grasp the clues that connected the whole thing.

All around us are large computing server units displayed one after another.
The computing server farms look old and worn out, due to the limitations of decades-old technology.

But when the two entered, they found that the place was brightly lit and the densely arranged computing server units began to operate.
A skull made of green data appeared on the dusty monitor screen.
"Steve Rogers, born..."

"Natasha Romanov, born..."

The cold electronic synthesized sound revealed the identities of the two people, their detailed growth history, and information that should have been top secret, leaving nothing to hide.

This feeling of being stripped naked made Natasha, who was somewhat sensitive to her past dark experiences, feel uncomfortable and frowned.

Steve Rogers looked at everything in front of him in confusion.
Until this mad scientist who called himself "Zora" and transferred his consciousness into data continued to speak,
After methodically explaining the fact that SHIELD had been hollowed out, taken over by Hydra and reborn through a shell,
Enjoying the two people's incredulous and shocked gazes, as well as their increasingly ugly expressions,

"Zora" declared somewhat proudly, as if issuing an ultimatum.

"The success of Project Insight is unstoppable. We will create a world of absolute order. We will control the world!"

"By then, all individuals that pose a threat to Hydra will be completely destroyed by us!"

"No one can stop us!"

"I've wasted so much time with you, it's time to say goodbye!"

"Zora's" cold words are still echoing,

Steve Rogers hurriedly used his shield to lie down with Natasha in a relatively solid corner of the base, waiting for the possible explosion.
But as time passed, nothing happened.

Steve Rogers looked at the "Zora" who was just talking nonsense.
The doubtful look was undoubtedly the most thorough mockery and questioning of "Zora".

As a data life, he is also wondering why the original program was not executed?
According to the plan, after enough time is delayed, a cruise missile will completely bury these two top agents in this dilapidated underground base.

Coupled with the subsequent team of special agents sent over, there is almost no possibility of failure.

But the accident still happened. The missiles did not hit, and there was no news from SHIELD, which had become its lair.
I have a vague idea that something bad is going on.
"Zora" quickly intervened in the network media connected to the outside world and began to explore relevant information.

"Zora", a data-creating life, thrives in this "ocean" made of information and code, swimming freely like a god.

The next moment, an inexplicable sense of confinement lingered in his data core, and all his actions were as if paused, stuck.
The subconscious desire to escape and the standard escape logic of transferring one's core consciousness data to the major Hydra servers around the world should have been executed as planned.
But all their escape routes were abruptly cut off.

"Impossible! There can't be an artificial intelligence more powerful than me in this world!"

"Who the hell are you?" "Zora" roared angrily, but the panic in his heart was beyond words.
But the strange data body did not respond, or rather, it expressed its response through actions.

Then, Zora felt the tentacles that imprisoned his data gradually invaded, forcefully and violently breaking through the security wall that protected him.

"Ah ah ah ah ah--"

The Elf Sword Saint Princess who seemed to have fallen into the den of goblin tentacles, the housekeeper who was stuck in the washing machine, the peerless swordsman who was poisoned by the world's most powerful poison, the noble lady who accidentally drank the black tea that made her sleepy...

It was only by using his little genius and a bit of luck that he transformed himself into a semi-digital life form "Zora".
In the face of the inherent advantages of the "mechanical scouts" and their absolute dominance over the current information network, the dimensionality reduction attack they show,

He was completely powerless and collapsed at the first blow. Feeling his data being violently shredded, he felt an unprecedented sense of despair that swept deeply into his heart.
The increasingly empty eyes and the modified core,

Eventually it changed into another shape, completely transforming into one that obeyed Link's orders.

During this relatively long period, "Zora" suddenly jammed and became silent, and the camera that had been staring at them lowered its head.

This unusual scene naturally attracted the attention of the two people who were still trapped here.

Steve Rogers, who noticed something was wrong, exchanged glances with Natasha.
Although it was unclear what exactly happened, it was obvious that this was a good opportunity to escape.

But before they could take the next step,

The camera that was originally hanging down was raised again, and the bright red indicator light came on.
"Zora" reappeared on the old electronic display,
The cold electronic synthesized sound resounded in this confined space.

"Steve Rogers, I want to play a game with you..."

"This is about whether you can get out of here alive. The entire base has been blocked by me. There are explosives buried under the base that are enough to raze this place to the ground."

"You have no choice."

After many unsuccessful attempts, Steve Rogers made eye contact with Natasha again before asking,
"what game?"

"You need to repeat 'Hail Hydra' three times loudly here at a volume of over 70 decibels."

"Impossible! Even if I die, I will never surrender to the evil Hydra!"

Steve Rogers' eyes were firm. He refused without hesitation after hearing such an outrageous request.
"Oh, is it so?"

The next moment, the electronic display on the wall showed a countdown.
"This is the countdown to the launch of Project Insight, so you will all be here to witness the glorious moment of Hydra's achievement!"

He punched the wall hard, leaving a fist mark on it.
Steve Rogers struggled and looked unwilling...
