Kapitel 65: Chapter 65: Escape from the Glacier Valley
Hundreds of meters above the bottom of the glacier valley, Kyle and Steve, who was holding the hostage, fell quickly against the cold wind and snowflakes. A dozen train carriages not far from them also burst and rolled down the mountain.
Falling from such a high altitude, Kyle had experienced many parachute jumps, but this time he didn't have any parachute equipment. A super soldier's physique, no matter how high, was only within the range of the most perfect human strength, and the range of tolerance for fatal crises was only three to five times that of a normal human. Falling from a cliff hundreds of meters high should be a certain death situation.
The moment before he jumped out of the carriage, Steve still didn't understand how to escape in such a situation. But he still jumped down without hesitation, because Kyle had been creating miracles since the beginning of the training base. He was like a pioneer, leading and guiding Steve forward. More importantly, he believed in Kyle, and that was enough.
Kyle himself didn't think as much as Steve. After he jumped out of the carriage, he opened his hands with his face facing the sky, as if waiting for something.
At that moment, ten thousand meters above the glacier mountain range, a light blue beast shadow broke through the atmospheric clouds at high speed. Its sharp golden eagle eyes looked down and its huge wings, full of feathers, suddenly shrank as it dived towards the ground. It was like an arrow, its speed breaking the sound barrier in a short moment and leaving a series of white circles in the sky.
"It's here," Kyle said, a smile appearing on his face as he saw the thin hole in the clouds in the sky. He had already summoned the Blue Eagle and had it scout the sky within a few miles of his body, creating an exclusive personal air defense field. He was now a major threat to the German army and the Hydra organization, and a month ago, the enemy had sent fighter jets to try to kill him and Steve, dropping mines on the battlefield.
The Blue Eagle had extremely strong flying maneuverability and could easily destroy a single fighter jet with its sharp claws before the jet even saw it coming. Creatures summoned by the Creature Card would have intimacy, obedience, and a subtle telepathic connection with the card holder, but in order to keep the Creature Card in a summoned state for a long time, it would need to be fed daily.
"What's here?" Steve asked in surprise, his eyes fixed on the ground below. His continuous descent made the ground at the bottom of the valley fly past his field of vision.
Before Kyle could open his mouth to explain, a huge shadow shrouded their bodies, accompanied by a strong wind pressure. "Chirp!" the Blue Eagle let out a loud cry, flapping its wings as it quickly approached. It first used its body to catch Kyle, then used one of its claws to grab Steve and the hostage.
"My God, what kind of bird is this?" Steve asked, shocked as he turned to look at the Blue Eagle, whose wingspan was at least ten meters wide, his mouth open in shock.
"Chirp chirp," the Blue Eagle glanced at Steve, who was on its claws. Its blue feathered wings flapped downwards, completely shredding the wind and snow below and forming a small area hurricane that rushed into the sky.
Steve was a little confused. He said hesitantly, "Why do I feel like I'm being despised by it?"
Kyle sat on the Blue Eagle's neck and said, "It's considered an eagle. It's very smart. It has the IQ of a ten-year-old human child."
"I've never seen such a big eagle," Steve said, relieved that they were out of danger. He smiled bitterly and asked, "Also, why are you sitting on its back? Why am I being held in its claws?"
"Well," Kyle said, as if lost in his memories. He began to make up a story and said, "I met it when I was young in the forest on the mountain. At that time, the Blue Eagle was the same size as a normal eagle. Later, it was infected by a radioactive drug in a factory, and its body mutated. Not only did its feathers change color, but it also became bigger and bigger."
"I see," Steve nodded, not questioning Kyle's story.
"Steve, I hope that when you go back, you won't tell anyone about the Blue Eagle, including Carter," Kyle said as he stroked the feathers on the Blue Eagle's head. "The Blue Eagle won't hurt humans. It only eats the beasts on the mountain. If some people with bad intentions know about its existence, they might try to hunt it down."
"Okay, I won't tell anyone," Steve agreed without hesitation.
Kyle secretly sighed in relief. The Blue Eagle was still too early to appear in the world of Marvel. After the twenty-first century, all kinds of mutations and technology emerged. Gods like Thor and Loki from myths and legends would travel around Earth for a few days, and with the addition of alien magic to expand the minds of people on Earth, the existence of the Blue Eagle wouldn't be so surprising.
After the Blue Eagle rescued three people from the valley, it flew them to a snowy mountain area. Kyle and Steve then took a hostage and returned to base with Frey's team.
That night, in the basement operations department, there was a large map of the enemy's factory base on the wall with six flagpole areas marked with crosses, indicating that the enemy had been defeated.
"The mission is complete. Staff Sergeant Bucky Barnes unfortunately fell to the bottom of the snowy mountain and died, but the target hostage has been successfully handed over for interrogation. The Hydra organization has now been separated from the German Army. We have learned that their leader, Red Skull, possesses a mysterious item that can create unlimited energy. Should we try to obtain it? I still harbor a grudge against Red Skull."
"Of course. Even if we don't want unlimited energy, we can't allow a dangerous organization like Hydra to have access to it."
At a desk with focused lights, Kyle, Steve, Carter, and the colonel, the base's commander-in-chief, sat in chairs and discussed the next steps.
"Major Kyle, Lieutenant Steve, please get ready," the colonel said sternly. "If we can learn the whereabouts of Red Skull from this mission's target, we'll need you to attack with a shield and a sword. The shield represents the justice and protection of the United States, and the sword represents our strength and killing power."
Kyle and Steve's military ranks may not be high, but their prestige and reputation in the country are far above some generals and officers. Therefore, at this time, the commander-in-chief and colonel treated them as equals.
Steve nodded in response. "Understood, I'll prepare in advance. Once there's news, we'll leave immediately."
"The target is Red Skull. You don't have to remind me, I'll insist on going," Kyle said coldly.
