S.H.I.E.L.D.
The U.S. team was isolated in a room where the situation inside could be seen from the screen outside.
He has been held here since the New York bombings.
No eating, no talking, no resistance.
In silence, the whole person completely lost his spirit and became numb and indifferent.
At this point, Iron Man and the others watched worriedly in front of the surveillance screen outside.
Not far away, Black Widow walked over with slender legs.
"How's Steve doing?" Banner asked directly.
Black Widow shook her head, "Judging from the examination, there is not a single problem with our captain's body."
Then she pointed to her head: "But the damage to his spirit may be more serious."
"Fury said he hasn't spoken to anyone since he entered the room."
"My mouth kept muttering, and when I went in, he didn't even look at me."
"Whether you admit it or not, in fact, we Avengers have lost a member."
She looked at the U.S. team with a trace of sadness in her eyes.
Although the U.S. team did not die, there was no difference between this and death—only a useless shell was left.
Nor can they expect the U.S. team to be involved in what's next.
Thor's arm pressed against the glass window, and his originally low head slowly lifted: "So, what should we do now?"
"Although it has been twice, we still don't know anything about the man named Jackson Chen!"
"When tomorrow he is going to commit a second crime, in what way, in what place, and against whom?"
"We don't know anything!"
"And for two whole days, we couldn't find out where this man came from, as if he had been born out of thin air in this world!"
"There is no past at all!"
The crowd fell silent at once.
Every word that the God of Thunder said was a fact, and in the face of Jackson Chen, they really had no idea!
This night did not seem to be any different from the original night.
They can only wait anxiously and uneasily for the next day to come!
"No, this time is different from before!" Iron Man suddenly looked up and said.
"At least we have a lot of information about him!"
"Know some of the characteristics of the real guy!"
Dr. Banner looked pessimistic: "Yes, we know."
"This guy is more cunning than any criminal, smarter than any bandit!"
"His planning and arrangement are unprecedented!"
"He can even invade every corner of the world; even every word we say is in his ears!"
The Avengers were in a heavy mood, and even they were a little shaken as the U.S. team fell.
Is such a guy really something they can deal with?
Iron Man took a deep breath; he knew that the U.S. team had fallen, and he was the only one who could support the Avengers to continue to fight against Jackson Chen.
Although he was also jealous of Jackson's means, he had no way out.
Because if they don't stop that guy, sooner or later he will come after them, and they can't escape!
"No, guys, you're all wrong."
"This guy has a special fetish in addition to his watertight schemes."
"I think this will be his first weakness!"
Iron Man's words made everyone look up, and a glimmer of hope suddenly flashed in their eyes.
"This is a conceited and arrogant guy who seems to be extra confident in his own wisdom, so he chooses to take a shot at us!"
"He wants to challenge the extraordinary power of the world!"
"Think about it, from the beginning, he blew up our base to a series of plans against Steve."
"Even several attempts to sneak into our conference room to provoke him prove that he has a great interest in people like us!"
"I'm even sure he'll choose one of us this time!"
Everyone's hearts froze as they realized it, but at the same time, a hint of fear crept in.
"So, what should we do?" Hawkeye asked.
Iron Man took a deep breath and said, "Guys, I think it's time to expand our alliance!"
"We need new power!"
"That guy is targeting the so-called superpowers, so we need to unite our enemies, our friends, and even anyone we know with special abilities!"
"Let them see what Steve looks like, and let them know that we're facing a madman who hunts superheroes or superpowers!"
"The man's power has been shown little by little, and I think the superpowers of the whole world should have seen the horror of this guy."
"We're still worried, angry, afraid, but what about the lone rangers?"
Iron Man's words made everyone's eyes gradually light up. It was as if a bunch of bonfires had appeared on a cold winter night—a glimmer of hope in the darkness.
Black Widow couldn't hide the excitement in her eyes, "This is definitely a good idea. I know a lot of superpowered individuals."
"There are a pair of siblings you've probably heard of, and they are definitely reliable helpers."
Dr. Banner looked at her with some surprise, "You mean Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch? I've heard of them, but mutants are hard to find. Do you know their whereabouts?"
Black Widow snapped her fingers, "Of course!"
Dr. Banner nodded, "That works out perfectly since I'm headed the same way. Professor X and the Beast are old friends of mine."
"But I'm still hoping to get the Wolverine here."
Black Widow's eyes flashed, "You mean Logan?"
Dr. Banner nodded with some regret, "But this guy is hard to track down. I've no idea where he's been all these years."
Hawkeye smiled and looked at them, "It seems like you both know a lot of people, but I've got my connections too."
He grinned and pulled out a couple of cards featuring Green Arrow and Batman.
Thor looked at them, scratching his head. He'd always been a lone wolf. He spread his hands and said, "I know all the gods of Asgard. Should I invite them down?"
Everyone chuckled, and Iron Man grinned, "If you can pull that off, that'd be fantastic."
He pressed a button on his mechanical arm, projecting several images: "Spider-Man, Tom Holland—this kid's got a lot of potential."
"And then there's Black Panther, Ant-Man, the Wasp…"
"Oh, I know so many."
Iron Man could barely count them all. Then he turned to the group, "Guys, I'm sure you're the same. I need each of you to gather as much power as you can."
"Tomorrow, we split into five teams, stationed in five different locations, using ourselves as bait to lure this cunning guy out."
"He's definitely going to attack one of us!"
"And the friends we've gathered will just need to wait patiently in the shadows. Once he shows himself, faced with this many superheroes, there's no way he'll escape!"
Iron Man slapped the table, his voice brimming with confidence.
