Chapter 298 Encounter

Ding-dang-dang-dang!

Controlling the metal wings behind it like a shield, Falcon murmured as he strafed the surrounding pirates: "It would be great if every mission was this easy."

A job like rescuing hostages may be a dangerous job in the hands of ordinary police, but for the Avengers who are well-equipped and possess extraordinary strength, it is obviously much easier. The Falcon's metal wings may not be able to withstand the high temperature of the Extremis virus, but they are obviously more than enough to deal with the pirates' bullets.

"Natasha, how is the situation over there..."

Waving the shield in his hand, Steve easily knocked away the armed pirates who were resisting on the opposite side. At the same time, he had time to contact Natasha who was moving separately through the communication device.

"Wait a moment!"

Facing Steve's inquiry, the sound of fierce fighting came from the other side of the earphone.

Then, a few seconds later, Natasha's reply came: "The engine room is done. It seems that I am the one who takes the lead now."

Hearing Natasha's answer in the headset, Steve couldn't help but smile under the mask. The next moment, he waved his arm and knocked away a pirate in front of him again.

"team leader……"

At this moment, Falcon, who was one step ahead, suddenly stopped and shouted to Steve behind him.

"Here we are."

As he spoke, he pointed to the galley of the ship in front of him, turned and added: "I just took a look and the hostages are being held here."

Bang——

Hearing Falcon's reminder, Steve's expression straightened slightly, and he stepped forward with a shield in hand, about to break through the door.

I heard a rough door opening, and then an armed pirate armed with a submachine gun came out with hostages. He threatened Steve in front of him: "Stop, as long as you dare to take a step forward, I will Just kill the hostages in my hands! Believe me, I will definitely do what I say."

The unstoppable offensive of the Avengers made the pirates responsible for guarding the hostages feel terrified.

I dare not continue, but Steve and others will continue to attack. Although these armed pirates are fierce, their ferocity is based on the weapons in their hands. When they find that bullets are not so easy to use, their original ferocity will naturally disappear. All that was left was panic.

After all, without the deterrence of bullets, they are just a group of slightly vicious ordinary people at best.

The hostages in the hands of the pirates obviously had some effect.

At least, when he saw the other party's hijacking figure, Steve subconsciously stopped in his tracks and showed a solemn look on his face.

At the same time, one hand quietly reached behind his back and made a silent gesture to the falcon behind him.

Noticing the movements of Steve's hands, Falcon's eyes changed slightly, lowered his head and gave an order in an undetectable voice: "Sniper, follow my order and start preparing."

"clear."

As Falcon's order fell, the response from the action team immediately came to the headset.

At the same time, on the ship deck not far away, a team member narrowed his eyes slightly and pointed the sniper gun in his hand at the back of the pirate who was holding the hostage.

Members of the Avengers were not the only ones participating in this hostage rescue mission.

"Three, two, one."

After receiving the reply, the expression on Falcon's face remained unchanged, but his mouth opened and closed slightly and he issued a countdown without hesitation.

As the last countdown number fell, the team members on the deck pulled the triggers in their hands. The next second, the pirate in front of Steve who was holding the hostage and shouting screamed and fell down. Steve, who was standing opposite him, immediately seized the opportunity and without hesitation, holding a shield, jumped towards the galley of the ship where the hostages were held.

The narrow space of the kitchen is inconvenient for pirates to move around. They need to be careful about their accomplices and do not dare to shoot easily.

However, for Steve, it was even more comfortable.

Use the shield in your hand for protection,

With his superhuman physical fitness, Steve easily knocked down the pirates in the kitchen one by one. Looking at his relaxed appearance, it was even easier than the previous battle on the deck.

"solved."

Watching Steve fight, Falcon couldn't help but have a smile on his face.

However, before the smile on his face fully bloomed, the next second, the team members' exclamations came from the earphones: "Be careful, behind you!"

Following this exclamation, Falcon immediately felt a rapid sound of breaking through the air coming from behind.

"What?!"

Facing the attack, the expression on Falcon's face suddenly changed, but his body instinctively controlled the metal wings behind his back to turn into a shield to block him.

boom--

Accompanied by the harsh sound of claws, although the metal wings blocked the sudden attack, the huge force from the claws still made the Falcon stagger back several steps. Lowering his head and looking at the clear claw marks on his wings, the corner of Falcon's mouth twitched, feeling a little distressed and a little thankful: "Fortunately, I blocked it with my wings, otherwise the claw would fall on me."

The hard wings made of special metal were even left traces by the opponent's claws. Falcon couldn't imagine what the consequences would be if this blow fell on him.

While thinking, he raised his head and focused his gaze on the attacker in front of him.

"Who are you?"

Looking at the attacker in front of him, the first thing that caught Falcon's eye was the opponent's scarlet eyes. For some reason, facing these eyes, Falcon always felt a faint sense of fear in his heart. This feeling was like Deep in our genes, we encounter predator-like fear.

"The person who killed you."

Facing the Falcon's question, the attacker opened his mouth, revealing the sharp teeth in his mouth. In the next moment, his whole body turned into a bolt of lightning and suddenly rushed towards the Falcon in front of him.

Bang!

The attacker moved extremely fast. Even Falcon, who was already on guard, did not expect that the opponent would move so fast. He controlled the metal wings behind his back and tried to block it in front of him, but it seemed a little late.

Seeing that the attacker's sharp claws were about to fall on him, even Falcon Tom could clearly see the ferocious smile on the opponent's face.

At the critical moment, there was a dull crashing sound.

The attacker who was moving at high speed was knocked away as if being hit by a train, and there were several crisp sounds of bone breaking.

"Are you okay, Tom?"

Taking a deep breath, Steve held the shield in hand and turned to the Falcon beside him to express concern.

Obviously, the figure who knocked away the attacker was Steve who was operating with Falcon.

"Thank you, Captain."

Looking at the attacker who was knocked away, and then turning to look at the tall Captain America in front of him, Falcon's face showed a feeling of joy for surviving the disaster, and he patted his chest and thanked him fearfully. If Steve hadn't made a timely move, he might have been the one who fell to the ground at this moment.

"Just, at this speed?"

After rejoicing, Falcon quickly turned his attention back to the twisted sneak attacker lying on the ground.

Being able to have such an attack speed is obviously not something ordinary people can possess.

"It seems that these pirates are more dangerous than we originally thought."

Looking down at the knocked down attacker, Steve frowned, and the expression on his face became a little more solemn. As he spoke, he reached out and was about to give a reminder to Natasha who was continuing the mission on the other side. However, he saw that his original sentence was knocked down by his huge force, and the body of the attacker whose bones were broken started to move again. Standing up, the twisted limbs on his body quickly returned to normal at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"That moment just now was really painful."

Reaching out and twisting his still somewhat bent neck back into position, the attacker glanced at the Falcon and Steve in front of him with his scarlet eyes, grinning to reveal the sharp teeth in his mouth.

"vampire!"

The astonishing recovery ability shown by the attacker and the sharp teeth in his mouth made Steve's pupils shrink involuntarily and he said with a solemn expression.

…

Bang, bang——

He shot and killed the pirates blocking the way, and left the engine room where Steve's mission was arranged.

Natasha followed the route map she got from the ship and easily found the central computer room located on the other side of the deck.

There, there was information needed by SHIELD waiting for her to process.

Although they were arranged in the same operation, it was obvious that there were certain differences in the tasks of Natasha and Steve.

Steve's mission is more focused on rescuing hostages for the Avengers, while Natasha works more for S.H.I.E.L.D. After all, although she is a member of the Avengers, Natasha is still essentially S.H.I.E.L.D. One of the Bureau's super agents.

Reaching out and inserting the USB flash drive she had prepared in advance into the computer, Natasha quickly tapped on the keyboard with her fingers, and soon found the part she needed and started backing it up.

"Natasha, you may be needed to cooperate with the team members to assist the hostages. I'm in a little trouble right now..."

The news of Captain America Steve came to her ears, causing the expression on Natasha's face to change slightly.

She turned her head and glanced at the files transferred on the computer, and at the same time asked into the earphone: "What happened, Captain?"

According to her judgment, the pirates on the ship should not threaten Steve's existence.

"It's a vampire."

At this time, the voice of the Falcon came, which answered Natasha's doubts.

"We encountered a vampire attack in the cabin. Damn it..." He replied hastily. It was obvious that Falcon was not in a good situation: "Captain, isn't there a way to kill the opponent at once? ?”

"Of course there are ways, but currently we don't have the tools to eliminate the opponent."

Steve's answer came from the earphones again.

"However, this vampire looks somewhat different from what I remember. At least in my memory, the vampire's power shouldn't be so weak..."

During the battle, Steve seemed to also discover the problem with the vampire in front of him.

"vampire?"

In the computer room, Natasha listened to the conversation between Falcon and Steve in the cabin with a solemn expression.

Unlike the deliberate concealment from Steve, Nick Fury did not hide the information about Peggy Carter and Dio Brando from Natasha during this period, so the S.H.I.E.L.D. agent knew it very well ’s knowledge, the appearance of Dio and the news that Peggy Carter was transformed into a vampire.

At this moment, the appearance of a vampire on the ship made Natasha's originally relaxed attitude immediately become serious.

She didn't think there was any problem between the vampires Steve and the others encountered and Dio.

Natasha even suspected that the vampire who appeared was created by Dio.

After all, according to the data, Dio, who turned into a vampire, was quite hostile to Steve.

It seems that the easy mission mode is over.

"Captain, if you just hold on a little longer, I'll be there soon..."

With this thought flashing through her mind, Natasha turned her head and glanced at the data on the computer, then spoke to Steve.

boom--

However, before Natasha's words came, there was a crashing sound.

The same figure with scarlet eyes and sharp teeth appeared in the computer room.

Turning his head and scanning the computer room, the other party quickly locked his eyes on Natasha in front of the computer, and said with a ferocious expression: "I said I smelled it, and sure enough, there are rats hiding here."

"Mouse?" Natasha couldn't help but frowned when she heard the other party's description: "This is not the right name for a lady."

As she spoke, Natasha pressed the device on her wrist. Two blue halos flashed from her hands. She turned her head and scanned the transmitted data on the computer screen. Natasha then rushed towards the vampire in front of her. past.

Although she knew that vampires were difficult to deal with, Natasha had to take action to prevent them from destroying the equipment in the computer room.

…

Bang!

Waving the shield in his hand, he knocked the vampire in front of him to the ground again.

Steve looked at the struggling vampire on the ground, reached out and grabbed the steel arm on the side and used force to remove it. Then he twisted the steel bar and bent it with a sudden force, nailing the vampire in front of him to the deck of the ship. Then, Steve worked hard and used the steel bars at hand to penetrate the vampire's body to prevent the vampire from healing, and also made it impossible for the vampire to stand up again.

"Huh~"

Bending more than a dozen steel bars in a row to pin the vampire in front of him firmly, even Steve felt a little tired.

However, looking down at the screaming and struggling vampire, a look of doubt flashed in Steve's eyes.

Obviously, although the vampire in front of him also had superhuman speed and healing ability, there was a big gap between these abilities possessed by the other person and what he had in mind.

At least, in his memory, vampires shouldn't be so weak.
