Chapter 8 - Find Captain America at All Costs
“Well, answer the question first!” Tony Stark also nodded.
“Captain America is still alive? Wasn’t he dead?”
Tony Stark’s first reaction was puzzled and confused. The name of Captain America was naturally prominent in the entire United States.
Even a playboy like him who was stingy with people had heard about Captain America.
The various comics, novels, and surroundings about Captain America had never decayed in the past seven or eighty years.
Been regarded as the first super soldier in the entire country!
But in everyone’s perception, Captain America was dead, and how exactly he died was a mystery.
Tony Stark reacted immediately, there was something strange in the question!
The reason was simple: if Captain America was dead, why were the officials so vague about his death?
He didn’t know where he died, he only knew that he died during the battle with the Hydra at the end of World War II.
But weirdly there was no grave, no specific time of death, no death event, so over the years, the debate about whether Captain America was really dead had never stopped, and various conspiracy theories had emerged one after another.
But the mainstream of society still believed that Captain America was dead. After all, no matter how you looked at it, there was no need for Captain America to die.
At that time, his reputation was so high that he had a good chance of success when the war was over, and he even had a good chance of running for the president of the country.
But from this question, it seemed that Captain America was not dead, nor was it a suspended animation, but frozen.
“Wow, this means that not only is Captain America not dead, but he may be rescued in the future? It must be breaking news!”
Tony Stark shrugged, then said.
“Exclude the impossible South China Sea and Indian Ocean first, because these two places are not cold enough, then the rest is the North Sea or Antarctica!”
Tony Stark analyzed.
The other two also nodded quickly. If it was said to be frozen, at least the temperature must be low enough to be possible.
The remaining Antarctica and the North Sea had temperatures low enough to actually freeze someone.
“So, Captain America is really a superhuman? Isn’t he the one wearing a circus costume?”
Tony Stark couldn’t help but exclaim.
Because he suddenly realized that a normal person might be frozen for seventy years, and that normal person would be frozen to death in a short while.
Obviously this was not something ordinary people could do!
“I chose the North Sea!”
Nick Fury answered directly and said.
[Correct answer!]
The weird mechanized voice replied.
[The reward has been issued, please accept it!]
Suddenly, in front of everyone, a ton of Vibranium appeared out of thin air.
“It’s really Vibranium!”
Tony Stark said in shock.
“I have read the old man’s notes. The shield he built for Captain America is made of Vibranium!”
Since Howard Stark’s death, Tony Stark had studied the notes he left behind. The notes recorded that he used Vibranium to build a shield for Captain America.
And judging from all aspects of Vibranium, this was the strongest metal in the world, and it could absorb shock waves. It was a godly material.
In fact, in these years, he had never given up on the pursuit of Vibranium, but the amount of Vibranium on the black market was very, very small. Even a rich and powerful top-notch man like him with a lot of money in his hands could not get enough for experiments.
Now there was a ton of Vibranium directly in front of him. This was a huge amount of wealth. The most important thing was that he couldn’t buy it with money.
“Director Nick, I want this ton of Vibranium, how much money, you name it!” Tony Stark directly waved his hand and said.
If Vibranium was used to develop a suit, wouldn’t it be invincible in the world, even Thanos wouldn’t be able to break the battle armor.
Unfortunately, Tony Stark didn’t know that in the future, Captain America’s Vibranium shield would be cut and scrapped by Thanos.
Nick Fury glanced at Tony Stark, damn local style.
However, S.H.I.E.L.D. was not running low on capital. Moreover, Vibranium was also very important to him. How could he not know about Vibranium and its effects? He even knew more than Tony Stark, knowing it came from a country called Wakanda.
It was just that this country was a closed and backward African country. The borders of the country were blocked to the outside, and outsiders didn’t know what it looked like from inside.
A backward country that even S.H.I.E.L.D. could not penetrate!
“At most one-third!” Nick Fury said. “Five billion dollars!”
Tony Stark directly agreed. Although 5 billion US dollars was not a small sum, it was still nothing to him. After all, any fraud in his Mark series would cost him hundreds of millions of dollars to fix. So capricious.
“The trench is inhuman!”
Nick Fury slandered a few words in his heart. Naturally, he was not short of money. Every year the five major countries would allocate a lot of funds to SHIELD, but it belonged to the entire SHIELD, not to him alone.
This was completely different from Tony Stark’s situation.
The Vibranium in his hands was much more useful than billions and ten billions of money, because many things could not be bought with money, such as Vibranium.
Even the inhuman Tony Stark could not collect it with his stash of money.
“But how do you know that Captain America was sealed in the North Sea?” Tony Stark asked.
Nick Fury pondered for a moment, and said: “It is mentioned in the file left by the senior S.H.I.E.L.D. official, according to the situation at the time, it is speculated that he should have fallen into the Arctic Ocean. In the area of Greenland, S.H.I.E.L.D. also organized large-scale search operations. It’s just that we couldn’t find him!”
“Since then, Captain America has never appeared again, so we speculated that Captain America should have passed away, but now it looks like Captain America is still alive and frozen. I will immediately start searching for Captain America in secret!” Nick Fury said.
Previously, it was speculated that Captain America had passed away, so there was no continuous search, but now that it was almost certain that Captain America was still alive, he would naturally not give up.
After all, Captain America could be said as a spiritual symbol for the country, his importance could not be changed.
If he could be saved then he had to be saved at all cost!
And if Captain America recovered, the Avengers he planned would have another pillar of existence.
“This time it seems that there is no future image, then I will leave!” Tony Stark said.
