Marvel's Superman

Chapter 76 - 074 The Main Quest

Dr. Zola, who stayed by Red Skull's side, is a scientist. On this occasion, he was useless, so he could only hide and shiver.

"I used to serve Hitler and was his loyal follower. The short-sighted Führer had a secret institute called 'Ahnenerbe' that specialized in the study of supernatural forces … ??

The leader of Hydra is trying to shake Luke's mind by using all his brainpower and his lifelong eloquence.

"At that time, I thought that Hitler, who believed in occultism, was seeking the truth and the way to become a god. But he's just addicted to astrology, ancient writing, the Lance of Longinus, all these tedious things, relying on cocaine and morphine to keep his fantasies alive …"

"So, I began to pursue the real miracle myself! I saw a clue in the Nordic mythology and found the secret of Odin's treasure!"

"I have the key to open the way to godhood!! General Cavill, beings as powerful as we are, shouldn't have to fight for a nation, an organization! The future has no flag! We should bring all humankind to their knees and lead them to create a new and better world!"

Luke shook his head gently and said with a calm tone, "Mr. Schmidt, I am very disappointed. Spending so much time and patiently listening to you finish this long speech didn't surprise me at all."

"Instead of doing all this useless work, why don't you just give me the Tesseract, honestly? I don't necessarily have to kill you. Handing over to the Allies is also a good option."

Red Skull just knew it was hard to make this young general turn around and switch to his side.

But what the Hydra leader failed to realize is that Luke wasn't a super-soldier, and his future was not limited to the planet beneath his feet.

"I'm disappointed, too, General Cavill. We shouldn't be enemies. You are the most perfect super soldier I have ever seen. "

Red Skull pulled out a remote control and spoke in a deep voice, "There are twenty-one Valkyrie missiles on this plane. I can detonate them immediately -- this is my last resort! Even a Superman, no matter how indestructible you are, you will be blown to pieces!"

"General Cavill, join the Hydra! When the great empire is established, you, like me, will become the ruler of the new world!"

Luke was speechless; such a threat was too weak to deter.

If not for him not wanting to take too many chances, he would like to try what it's like to be hit by twenty-one Valkyrie missiles.

After all, Superman is incomplete without a nuclear bomb exploding on his head!

'Although I am currently a lower version, trying - the slightly less powerful than the nuclear version - the Valkyrie missile, shouldn't be troublesome.'

Thinking of this, Luke's eyes rose with a gleam of eager anticipation.

"General Cavill, I'm serious. I'm going to press it!"

Seeing Luke walking at a firm pace, Red Skull was dumbfounded.

He didn't expect this Allied Superman to have such a noble conscience that he would rather sacrifice his own life to stop Hydra's Valkyrie!

"I said, don't come any closer! We'll all explode into fireworks!"

Red Skull, who was clutching the remote control in his hand, hesitated and subconsciously took a step back.

Despite his ruthless look, he was reluctant when he thought that he hadn't completed his dream of ruling the world and establishing the Hydra Empire.

Even if you have a strong, ambitious heart, faced with near success, there's no way to be decisive about death within reach of the end!

"General Cavill, you want to defend the Allies even at the cost of your own life? What a stupid idea!"

Red Skull tried to 'wake up' Luke, but when he saw the steady footsteps and determined face, the following words got stuck in his throat, and he couldn't spit them out.

He realized that no matter what he did, he couldn't shake the other's mind.

Even the threat of death couldn't stop Luke.

This golden spirit of giving up oneself to save the world had somewhat moved Red Skull.

'Erskine once said that the serum would uncover the dark side of humankind, the better the good, the worse the bad … Does it mean that Luke Cavill could gain more power than the super-soldier because he was of high moral character and honest?'

The leader of Hydra didn't want to believe it. He always sneered at the justice and kindness affirmed by humankind.

Boom!

Luke seized the opportunity and dashed past with one step.

He knocked Red Skull to the ground with his hand, and the remote control that would detonate the Valkyrie missile was crushed by his foot.

He looked down at his opponent and whispered, "Schmidt, there is no shame in fearing death. "

How can an ambitious man with a thirst for power accept defeat so easily?

The worst option for Red Skull was to die together.

"I believe the Allies will be very interested in Hydra's secrets. "

Luke chuckled lightly.

The super soldiers were thick-skinned.

Red Skull was punched in the abdomen, but he only fell on his knees and bent his back like a lobster. If it was an average person, his sternum should be broken, and he wouldn't get back up, ever.

"Cough cough… we are all products of the serum, with infinite possibilities … ah!"

Red Skull dropped his arrogant attitude and became humble, but Luke kicked him to the ground before he finished speaking.

The fierce crimson head looked like cracked porcelain.

"Your vision is too narrow, always trying to conquer the world, focusing on this blue planet, but ignoring the vast Milky Way -- there's a lot of wonderful scenery!"

Luke's face was expressionless as he manipulated the device and took out the Tesseract from the central hub.

The wispy blue light, like flowing water, transformed into a solid wave of energy.
