Superman of the American Comics

Chapter 5 Strategic Science Corps

"You lost Dr. Erskine?"

Turning the clock back to 5 minutes ago, a tall female officer asked in a stern tone.

"It is very likely that German spies are lurking in this city, always trying to capture or execute Dr. Erskine! Don't you know how important he is? Hurry up and find him!"

The female officer reprimanded her subordinates unceremoniously.

On the handsome and heroic face, there is a glamorous expression, like an iceberg.

The agent in plain clothes nodded again and again, trying to restrain the indifferent look of contempt in his eyes.

This is a turbulent era when the status of women has not been taken seriously.

The concept held by most people is still that women should stay at home as full-time housewives and do housework, and there is no need to show their faces.

Even if the stern-looking female officer in front of them is their superior, they must maintain an attitude of obedience.

But the respect level of these plainclothes agents is still very perfunctory.

For them, a female officer is a beautiful vase with a bad temper, not their own superiors!

"We got separated from him. There are too many people at the fair. Who knows where that old German man went!"

A plainclothes agent argued.

"He's Dr. Abraham Erskine!"

The female officer corrected.

"Nor does it change the fact that he and Hitler were fellow citizens."

Another plainclothes agent sneered back.

Due to the deliberate propaganda of public opinion, the public has obvious hostility towards the Germans.

Even if Abraham Erskine is in the Confederate camp, it can't stop the prejudice of these people.

Bang!

There was a clear gunshot not far away.

Panic screams could be heard vaguely.

The female officer's complexion changed, she gave the plainclothes agent a cold look, and walked away quickly on her flat heels.

3 minutes later.

She rushed to the conscription station with a group of heavily armed soldiers.

Several cold corpses fell on the ground, and the pungent smell of blood permeated the audience.

"PhD!"

The female officer couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief seeing Dr. Erskine who was safe and sound.

The opponent is now the military's highest-level protection target, and it is also a serious problem for the Germans.

Everyone in the know understands how valuable the super soldier serum developed by Abraham Erskine is.

It can end this war!

Affect the balance of victory!

Even influence the pattern of the world!

"These people...should be the spies they sent."

Dr. Erskine has recovered from the panic, and said calmly: "It seems that Schmidt really doesn't want me to live in this world."

The female officer nodded in agreement.

Then, she glanced at the two young men beside Dr. Erskine with a hint of vigilance in her eyes.

"Fortunately, this young man saved me. By the way, I don't know your name yet."

Dr. Erskine explained.

He saw that Luke was alone, taking out the three spies following the assassination in a thrilling manner, thinking that they were plainclothes agents sent by the military to protect him.

But judging from the vigilant eyes of the female officer, it's obviously not the case!

"Luke. My name is Luke Cavill."

The young man who put away his pistol smiled.

He didn't expect to meet Abraham Erskine and Captain America's girlfriend, Peggy Carter in this way.

That's right.

The female officer standing in front of her is one of the founders of the future S.H.I.E.L.D.

Now, the opponent should be an agent of the Strategic Science Corps.

Responsible for protecting Abraham Erskine and participating in the super soldier program.

"You killed all these spies? You are very skilled."

The female officer named Peggy Carter said meaningfully.

She glanced briefly at the bodies of the spies in black. All three of them were killed by a single shot. There was no trace of trauma, and the bullets all hit vital parts.

Judging from the wound alone, this young man named Luke has good marksmanship.

And after killing the three people, the other party did not show any intense emotion of panic.

No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a novice.

Such an abnormal performance has every reason to make Peggy suspicious.

It's impossible to say that ordinary young people in Brooklyn can beat German spies casually?

That way, the Allies would have reached Berlin long ago, ending the war!

"Taught some self-defense techniques."

Luke replied casually.

He did learn to fight and shoot from Uncle Frank for a while.

The latter once thought about training Luke to be a gangster who cleaned houses.

The Irish gangsters are rising fast, and there's just a shortage of good lads who can do the job.

Unfortunately, Luke has little interest in this road.

Although he worked hard to learn fighting and shooting, and insisted on exercising, it was only to increase the means of self-protection.

It's not like I'm some donut head who wants to be a "gangster superstar"!

"Doctor, it's not safe here. Let's leave first."

The female officer withdrew her scrutiny, looked at Dr. Erskine, and said softly, "We will investigate all this afterwards."

"Okay. I got your name, Luke."

Dr. Erskine nodded, knowing that he was under the strict protection of the military.

To be able to participate in the World Expo of Tomorrow tonight was still invited by Howard Stark.

But after meeting him once, Dr. Erskine felt that the young and promising Mr. Stark was more like a businessman when he talked.

The enthusiasm for climbing to the top of science is far inferior to the interest in amassing wealth and chasing women.

Therefore, the two of them just exchanged a few words, and they did not talk deeply.

"Is he your friend?"

Before leaving, Erskine looked aside at Steve Rogers.

For some reason, he was very interested in this small, thin man.

Perhaps it was the conversation between the other party and the officer at the conscription station that brought back some memories deep in Erskine's heart.

As the developer of the super soldier serum, Abraham Erskine knew its dangers and what side effects it had.

I have already created a devil, and I don't want to create a second one, and more!

Therefore, Erskine has been looking for the right candidate-a "super soldier" who will not bully the weak and understand compassion.

"Yes. His name is Steve Rogers."

Luke pulled Steve over and said loudly, "My friend wants to serve his country. Although he is not strong enough, his patriotism never dies."

"I see."

Erskine turned and left thoughtfully.

The female officer also followed quickly, but before leaving, she glanced at Luke and seemed to be suspicious.

The soldiers with live ammunition stayed behind to protect the scene and clean up the mess.

"Luke, who are they?"

Steve, who survived the disaster, was a little confused, he still didn't know what happened.

"A person who can change your destiny."

Luke curled his lips and said softly.

He patted Steve's thin shoulder, and a gleam of light glowed in the depths of his eyes.

I didn't expect that I would enter the military's field of vision in this way.

I'm afraid that the next female agent named Peggy Carter will start a careful investigation of Luke.

But he is not worried, the Strategic Science Corps is doomed to gain nothing.

Their enemy is Hydra, the evil Axis powers.

And Luke has nothing to do with the so-called German spy, the killer sent by Hydra.

"What happened just now was terrible."

Steve, who couldn't understand the meaning, felt lingering fear.

The conscription station officer who had argued with him also fell in a pool of blood.

Empty eyes, lost all color.

"If you step on the battlefield, you will encounter more such things and witness more dead partners."

Luke sighed.

He'd seen Uncle Frank paint houses.

He even took care of a few gangster scum by himself.

For blood and death, has long been accustomed to.

"Do I still have a chance to set foot on the battlefield?"

Steve was a little frustrated, he'd had too many rejections.

Everyone said he couldn't do it, and thought he should stay at home.

Even good buddy Bucky is no exception.

"There will be."

Luke nodded affirmatively.

He seemed more confident than Steve himself.

"Okay, hurry up and find Bucky. I will practice it for him tonight."

Sensing Steve's puzzled gaze, Luke changed the topic and dragged the thin and small man away from the conscription station.
