Chapter 280 Steve Wakes Up

"She's still waiting for you."

"Don't worry, she is living well. After retiring from S.H.I.E.L.D., she is living peacefully under our dedicated care. With regular physical examinations and injections of Pioneer Technology's T-series antiviral serum, she His body is much better than that of his peers.”

"There is no problem in living for at least another ten or twenty years."

After hearing Steve's words, Nick Fury immediately spoke.

After all, he had heard about the relationship between Steve and that person before, but it was a pity that the last two people...

"Let's talk somewhere else."

"I don't think you want to be watched here either."

After looking at more and more people gathering around him, Nick Fury continued to speak.

Although he didn't want to hide Captain America's recovery, the large number of people meant uncertainty. The other party was the rare first super soldier, and he didn't want any surprises to happen.

"OK."

After hearing Nick Fury's words, Steve nodded and followed Nick Fury into the car, driving towards the distance.

After a long time.

Nick Fury's office in the S.H.I.E.L.D. Trident Building.

At this moment, after coming all the way and beginning to digest everything Nick Fury said in the past seventy years, Steve still felt that he couldn't believe it.

You know, this is 70 years!

How is it possible for a normal human being to live for 70 years and still be alive after being frozen in ice?

But he felt nothing.

But everything around you cannot be fake.

So Steve had to force himself to accept all this.

"So, the war is over?"

After a long time, looking at everything in front of him, Steve spoke.

"Yes, shortly after you fell asleep, the war was over without the threat of the Nazis. There is no doubt that we achieved an unprecedented victory."

At this time, Nick Fury also looked at Steve, who still had a look of shock on his face, and said with emotion.

You know, this person has been sleeping for 70 years and is still alive, let alone the other party. When he first heard the news, he suspected that his ears had heard it wrong.

"I can tell."

After hearing Nick Fury's words, Steve nodded and spoke with empathy.

"Huh?! Don't you feel like I lied to you?"

At this moment, after looking at the obvious expression on the other party's face, Nick Fury couldn't help but ask.

After all, along the way, the other party believed whatever he said, and nodded in agreement with a no-nonsense attitude.

If this is his subordinate, then being echoed by others will make Nick Fury feel that he is managing well.

But this is the famous Captain America, which makes Nick Fury feel strange.

After all, in his heart, the other party would not be such a blind follower.

"Of course not, because if we didn't win, you wouldn't be standing in front of me based on the color of your skin."

"And you said you were the leader of S.H.I.E.L.D."

"I believe in Peggy, she always sees people very accurately."

After hearing Nick Fury's doubts, Steve rarely smiled.

You must know that during World War II, with the implementation of some domestic policies in the United States, it can be said that all white people intensified their discrimination against black people.

For example, the legal support of the "separate but equal" principle resulted in black people not receiving equal treatment in actual life.

Although black people join the military, their promotion opportunities and quality of life in the military are still lower than those of white people due to long-standing racial prejudice and social structural problems.

In many cases, black people cannot become officers at all, and this situation is not limited to the United States. Similar situations also exist in the armies of various other countries.

Although Steve once wanted to change something, he himself was very soft-spoken. Even if he was Captain America, he knew there was nothing he could do.

And now, the fact that Nick Fury is able to reach his current position with this skin color has personally proved that his bloody struggle was worth it.

"uh-huh."

Regarding Steve's point, Nick Fury, who also ignored it, tilted his head.

This is the difference between living in modern times and the subtle living habits of seventy years ago.

Many seemingly trivial things that seemed normal to Nick Fury seemed to have undergone earth-shaking changes in Steve's eyes.

This was the case with previous football game broadcasts, and the same is true for Nick Fury’s skin color now.

For a moment, Nick Fury couldn't help but sigh, Steve was indeed a legend who survived World War II.

"So, you rescued me from the bottom of the sea?"

After watching the other party admit it, Steve gradually began to recall the last scene in his mind - 'as the plane crashed into the sea' and then asked.

"Yes, we found your plane in a glacier in Antarctica, and when we were exploring inside, we happened to detect your signs of life. We found you from there. It's hard to believe that you are still alive after so long. alive."

"Of course, maybe this is also fate. To be honest, in this difficult time, it is really best to see you back."

After hearing Steve's words, Nick Fury also spoke immediately.

"Difficult times?"

"Is the war about to start again?"

After hearing Nick's words, Steve, who had been through many wars, frowned.

"Yes, we have been declared war."

"But this time the opponent is very different from the enemies we have faced in the past."

At this moment, Nick Fury nodded and spoke.

"What happened?"

After hearing Nick Fury's words, Steve also frowned and asked.

After all, although he had just woken up, Steve was not sure about the other party's ability and other things, but since the other party was the current director of SHIELD, and from his observation of the professional quality and equipment used by these agents when he passed by, all of these can prove that the current SHIELD is very strong.

And the forces that can declare war on the other party must not be simple.

Of course, the most important thing is that he needs to understand the specific reasons.

Although he didn't want to say it, he had personally experienced the faces of American politicians.

If you are not careful, you may be used as a gun by others.

This is what he does not want to face.

"During the seventy years you have been asleep, the technology of the earth has entered an era of rapid development, especially represented by a biotechnology company, whose technology has surpassed the technology of modern earth civilization for decades or even hundreds of years."

"And the entire political ecology of the earth has been integrated. After it has won over the five current members of the Council, a new Earth Federation has been established."

"Of course, this is only on the surface. In secret, various countries are also very wary of the company Avant-garde."

"Because no one knows the technology, origin and where those things that are beyond the times come from."

"So we were ordered to restart the weaponization development of the Cosmic Cube by the World Security Council."

After hearing Steve's words, Nick Fury also started to speak directly.

After all, he also knew that the other party had his own opinions, and this soldier was not as simple as they imagined.

If it really comes down to seniority, the other party can be said to be a veteran of S.H.I.E.L.D.

So Nick Fury didn't shy away from the other party and directly told the secrets of the bureau.

"Wait, the Cosmic Cube?! You salvaged it?!"

"And it was weaponized?"

"Then what is the difference between you and Hydra? No matter when, as long as someone wants to end the war first, it will really lead to war."

"You should let the Cosmic Cube sink to the bottom of the sea."

Originally, after hearing Nick Fury talk about the company of A-Tech, Steve felt a little dissatisfied in his heart, but after hearing that the people from SHIELD were repeating the path of Hydra, he couldn't help it anymore, interrupted the other party, and said with indignation.

You know, before, it was because Hydra was studying the Cosmic Cube like a madman, so he didn't hesitate to die with the other party in the end, and didn't escape from the spaceship, just to prevent the Cosmic Cube from being used by people with ulterior motives.

What he didn't expect was that these people not only didn't learn the lessons of Hydra, but also restarted the project.

This is simply the opposite of Tiangang.

"We don't want to start such a dangerous project."

"But the situation forces us to do so. You have just woken up, and you don't know how terrifying the strength of Avant-garde Technology is."

"I can say that as long as Avant-garde Technology wants, the regimes of the world can be completely destroyed and unified by the other party within a day."

"And I can guarantee that more than half of the civilians will be happy to see this result."

"Not only the armed forces, they even control the people's hearts and public opinion."

"When the major countries in the world realize all this, it is too late. No one dares to stand up and confront them."

Looking at the angry Steve in front of him, Nick Fury also spoke helplessly.

According to the information they have collected about Avant-garde Technology, he can be sure that the forces and technological products of Avant-garde Technology on the surface are just the tip of the iceberg of this huge enterprise.

There are still many technological projects and armed forces that have not been shown by it, hidden under the huge iceberg.

The most direct reason is that every year, after graduation, almost half of the tens of thousands of top students in the world are directly absorbed by Pioneer Technology into its own enterprises.

The rest are because those technology companies, after seeing Pioneer Technology's crazy money-spending methods, also increased the salary and various benefits of recruiting people, so that they barely did not lose too much in the talent war with Pioneer Technology.

And here comes the question, that is, why does Pioneer Technology suddenly want so many people? !

You must know that in addition to these top students, Pioneer Technology is also digging high-tech talents and engineers from various companies, and these people can be said to be enough for all scientific research companies in the circle.

Even more than used up.

But Pioneer Technology is like a glutton, just eating and not vomiting, as if it can eat as much as it wants.

And why is this? !

The reason can only be explained by the fact that, in private, in places that are not visible to the public, Pioneer Technology still has a large number of scientific research projects that need these talents to do.

Only in this way will Pioneer Technology not hesitate to spend so much manpower and material resources to attract so many top students to enter their company.

And what shocked them the most was that after entering, they almost had no contact with the outside world.

And those family members were either paid by Pioneer Technology regularly, or directly arranged in the family area provided by Pioneer Technology.

According to their incomplete statistics, there are more than 70,000 family rooms provided by Pioneer Technology to employees alone.

And this data is still growing wildly at a rate of hundreds per day.

And this is only in some relatively small places. In big cities such as New York, London, and Hong Kong, Pioneer Technology directly encloses land and builds houses.

It can be said that after these means, Pioneer Technology's labor costs alone are extremely scary.

And these are all means used by Pioneer Technology to win people's hearts.

Just ask, if such a company, which provides money and houses, one person joins and the whole family is worry-free, and gives back to the society, really has any action, what should these civilians think? !

You should know that people in many countries are like that country in the East, and their loyalty to the country has reached the peak.

In most countries, especially in the West, their people hold a concept, that is, they will follow whoever makes them live well.

As for the issue of whether it is a country or not, these are irrelevant.

"I think you may be focusing on the wrong issue, Director Nick Fury."

"Although I don't know how you view a matter now."

"But I believe one thing, that is, when all ordinary people think that this company is doing good things, then they should be worthy of love."

"Instead of finding ways to suppress it because their armed forces are very strong."

"Since you see that the other party is very good to the people, why can't you do better than them? Isn't it enough to work hard in this regard?! Instead, you have to find ways to develop armed forces?"

"This is putting the cart before the horse."

But after listening to Nick Fury's words, Steve frowned at this time, and then couldn't help but speak. (End of this chapter)
