A loud horn sounded outside the house. "Xu Luo and Klaue inside, surrender peacefully. You can't escape anymore; our army has surrounded you! Soon, our super soldiers will arrive. If you surrender now, you will suffer a little less." Listening to the diminishing sound of gunfire on their side, Klaue clenched his fist. He looked at his daughter in his arms, then at Xu Luo. "I see that you are skilled. Save my daughter, and I'll owe you 20 million. I'll give you Vibranium. Help me make a steel arm. How about that?" Hearing Klaue's words, Xu Luo nodded slightly. "Okay. We need to leave here quickly. If HYDRA's Winter Soldiers come, I won't be able to escape either."
Klaue nodded. "After dealing with the people outside, I have a safe route to escape from here. HYDRA's people won't find us." Xu Luo looked around. "Give me a more powerful weapon. I'll take care of the people outside." Klaue was slightly surprised. "You want to take on HYDRA's team alone? They are a battle-hardened modern elite force." Xu Luo raised his palm. "Just give me the stuff." The people on the other side didn't dare to harm him, which was his biggest advantage. As long as he avoided their capture methods, he would be fine. Klaue quickly walked to a wall and pressed a hidden door. "You can pick any weapon here."
The wall opened, revealing a plentiful supply of modern weapons inside: pistols, rifles, grenades, even rocket launchers. Seeing Klaue's weapons, Xu Luo's eyes widened. Wow. It was like a small armory. Truly the Marvel world. Weapons were hidden everywhere, with so many of them. With a snap, Xu Luo snapped the informant's neck and threw him to the ground. Then he grabbed several grenades, picked up a rifle and a rocket launcher, and rushed towards the nearby window. Breaking through the front was slightly more dangerous. Breaking through from both sides was the safest way.
Seeing Xu Luo holding a rifle and a rocket launcher, Klaue's eyes also widened. Wow, can he really go out and fight like this? Xu Luo leaped out of the window, leaning against the outer wall, and aimed the rocket launcher at the HYDRA team in front. Xu Luo's appearance instantly caught HYDRA's attention. "Xu Luo has appeared! Switch to stun guns! Tranquilizer bullets! Capture him alive! Be careful! He's holding a rocket launcher! Spread out!" Looking at Xu Luo, who remained calm, holding the rocket launcher with one hand, the HYDRA agents exclaimed.
Before they could finish speaking, Xu Luo pulled the trigger. Boom! The shell flew out horizontally. A loud explosion! Flesh and blood flew! The ground trembled slightly. In an instant, one-third of the enemies were gone. Their formation was also disrupted. Xu Luo quickly looked for cover while shooting at the enemy. Bang! Bang! Bang! Bullets flew, blood splattered. Xu Luo was extremely tense, trying to avoid being hit by the enemy's stun guns or tranquilizer guns. Once hit, he would be done for.
"Damn it! This guy is too strong! We have completely suppressed the enemy! Unless the Winter Soldier is deployed, he can't possibly be his match!" "Damn it! Why is a researcher so strong? Why does he have such strong combat awareness? Is this guy really just a nerd from the lab? Damn it!" Xu Luo moved extremely quickly, like a ghost. In addition to bullets, he also threw grenades and smoke bombs. Explosions, gunshots, and screams filled the air. Soon enough, the urgent gunfire outside disappeared.
Xu Luo appeared in the room again, with a few beads of sweat on his forehead, his breath slightly uneven. He didn't look like someone who had just experienced intense combat.
Upon seeing Xu Luo, Klaue took a breath and said, "My goodness, did you single-handedly take care of HYDRA's army? Are you a superpowered individual or some kind of super soldier?" Xu Luo's strength far exceeded his imagination, surpassing that of an ordinary person. He effortlessly crushed a tactical squad of HYDRA, a top-notch special forces team! He was practically a second Captain America! He looked at Xu Luo's slender body and couldn't help but be amazed. It was hard to imagine that such a slender body possessed such astonishing explosive power.
Xu Luo tossed the hot gun aside. "It was mainly because there weren't many people who came, just a regular HYDRA squad. If there were more of them, I wouldn't have been able to handle it." He urged, "Let's go, let's leave here. HYDRA's real soldiers will be here soon." He didn't mention anything about his own situation. Seeing that he didn't say anything, Klaue didn't ask further.
Klaue nodded and said, "Let's go, let's go into the mine." With that, he held his daughter and quickly left the room, heading towards the nearby minefield. Xu Luo followed closely behind Klaue, keeping a vigilant eye on his surroundings, especially the sky. According to what was said on the phone, four Winter Soldiers had been dispatched. Xu Luo just didn't know if those four Winter Soldiers were the ones eliminated by Zemo later on or if Bucky was among them.
Soon enough, the mine came into Xu Luo's view, dark and deep. The three of them rushed in. Klaue took out a flashlight from his pocket and illuminated the inside. At the same time, above the sky outside, a sharp tearing air sound could be heard. Xu Luo understood that the Winter Soldiers had arrived. A sense of urgency surged in Xu Luo's heart. He quickly said, "Hurry, HYDRA's Winter Soldiers are coming."
Klaue quickly carried his daughter and ran towards the depths of the mine. The mine was like a maze with many paths, but Klaue walked as if he was in his own backyard, familiar with the route. As he ran, he whispered, "In the deep part of the mine, there is a secret passage. It was dug by a miner a long time ago, who wanted to steal ore. Behind it is a natural cave that leads to the forest behind the distant mountains. But that miner was executed by my grandfather because this mine was owned by my grandfather. And this secret passage is only known by our family and has become our means of escape."
As he spoke, they had already passed several intersections and arrived at a deeper part of the mine. In front of a rough and uneven wall, Klaue pressed on it. With a loud rumble, a stone door opened. Behind the stone door, there was a mine cart. "Get in." The three of them got on the mine cart, and the stone door closed.
The mine cart started automatically, speeding through the dim, damp cave, with only the flashlight providing some light. In the dimness, Xu Luo's dark eyes became even deeper. In his heart, he murmured, "Finally, one day, I will uproot HYDRA and wipe them out."
Boom! A streamlined fighter jet landed vertically in the open space outside Klaue's house. The four Winter Soldiers got off the plane. Looking at the situation on the ground, they frowned slightly. A man with a metal arm said, "All of our people are dead."
