Chapter 33 A close call
"The results of the passive radar scan indicate that the target possesses some form of stealth ability!"
"Let's connect with the Federal Security Bureau Information Department to verify that the target doesn't have permission..."
"Our military databases show no existence of the opponent, confirming it as an unauthorized flight..."
Accompanied by a series of cold electronic sounds, a blurry flight image appeared on the base's screen through radar scanning.
"Dr. Zola, what's happening?"
Emerging from the elevator, Helmut Zemo furrowed his brow, observing the busy personnel within the base, and asked while looking at the screen in front of him.
He has to interrupt his Hydra board meeting in the middle due to the alarm.
"The satellite barrier detected an unidentified flying object approaching, and the other party has some degree of invisibility..."
On the screen, a virtual face appeared and responded.
"Can we identify them?"
Gazing at the screen beside the base, Helmut focused on the blurry image displayed.
"Based on the comparison of images captured by the aerial reconnaissance detector and satellite barrier warning radar system, there is no available data on the opponent. It is highly likely that they are an unregistered superhuman..."
Displaying the detector's captured images on the screen, Dr. Zola analyzed with a distinct electronic tone.
"Could it be the rebels?"
Interrupting Dr. Zola's analysis, Helmut inquired further.
"It's highly unlikely."
Dr. Zola on the screen shook his head. "After the previous battle, the Dark Avengers suffered heavy losses, and even their member, the Swordsman, died at the hands of the Thunderbolts. Since then, they have remained elusive. We can't confirm if the previous explosion in New York is related to the Resistance. They wouldn't expose themselves so easily..."
After listening to Dr. Zola's analysis, Helmut's gaze returned to the flying figure in the footage.
At that moment, a secretary-dressed woman standing beside him glanced at the time and discreetly reminded Helmut.
Prompted by the secretary's reminder, Helmut shifted his gaze and addressed Dr. Zola on the screen, saying, "Deploy Ultron."
"Are you certain?"
Upon hearing Helmut's words, a human-like expression of surprise appeared on Dr. Zola's virtual face.
"If the other party detects the barrier, it will cause unnecessary trouble. I will explain the situation clearly to Dr. Pym."
Helmut didn't elaborate further.
"Understood."
Upon hearing this, Dr. Zola on the screen nodded slightly.
Soon after, within Hydra's underground base, a cold mechanical sound echoed.
"Target locked!"
"Activate Ultron Mark I..."
...
Rumbling—
In the sky above, drawn by the thunderous rumble produced by the lightning, Colin watched cautiously, holding his breath, carefully maneuvering his body to avoid that particular area.
Gripping his fists tightly, he used them to guide his body upward again, evading the thunder within the clouds.
Colin steadied himself, looking down at the scene below, filled with flashing lightning and thunder, feeling greatly astonished.
Just as his mind was shaken...
A loud sonic boom suddenly came from behind him. A figure with a silver metallic sheen burst through the clouds and appeared in front of Colin.
"Ultron Mark I, connect to the radar system, lock onto the suspicious target!"
Maintaining a flying posture with its limbs and enormous flames jetting from its back, Ultron, with its red-glowing mechanical eye, scanned the area in front of Colin.
"Data comparison, target confirmed..."
Ultron?
As Colin gazed at the robot before him, a flicker of confusion crossed his eyes while he floated mid-air.
"Switch to attack mode!" he commanded.
In the next instant, before he could comprehend the unfolding events, he noticed the red lights flickering in the robot's eyes.
"Could it be?!" Colin exclaimed.
Feeling unease welling up inside him, Colin instinctively tightened his fist and swiftly changed his direction.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
As Colin swiftly moved away, two mini missiles shot out from the launchers on the Ultron's arms, emitting urgent sounds. Colin rolled his body mid-air to stabilize his flight and his stealth became redundant. He turned his head to witness the missiles whizzing past him.
Had he hesitated even for a moment, he would have been unable to dodge the incoming missiles.
Before Colin could catch his breath, the robot, or rather the Ultron, launched another round of attacks, relentlessly pursuing him.
High above, propelled by immense firepower on its back, the Ultron closed in on Colin at a speed beyond human imagination. Simultaneously, the missile bay on its chest opened, and several mini-missiles locked onto Colin, emitting urgent sounds.
"Uh-oh!" Colin exclaimed as he found himself targeted by numerous missiles.
"Superman possesses the power to conceal his body by vibrating super fast and move undetected" Colin recollected his notes about the invisibility ability he had recently unlocked.
He realized he had overlooked the technological disparity between the positive and negative worlds, where the surface technology in the negative world appeared modern but hidden technologies lay beneath the surface, controlled by certain individuals or organizations unbeknownst to the public.
Just like the Ultron robot that stood before him.
Various thoughts raced through his mind, but his body reacted instinctively, flying backward to evade the imminent danger.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The launching sounds grew even more urgent, and Colin could vaguely perceive the missiles closing in on him at an unimaginable speed.
Escape seemed impossible.
Despite his recently acquired flight ability, Colin could not elude the pursuing missiles.
The consequences of being hit were unimaginable.
Although the newspapers in the positive world had only just revealed Superman's ability to fly, it was still considered a nascent ability, far from reaching supersonic speeds or even the speed of light in future generations.
There was only one option left, reminiscent of the alley encounter.
In this critical moment, Colin's mind strangely calmed down. He gritted his teeth and forced himself to shut his eyes.
Several kilometers above ground level, disregarding the deadly threat behind him, Colin flew forward with closed eyes.
The howling wind, the rapid roar of the missiles, and occasional thunder continued to assault his ears, while Colin's consciousness delved deeper as his eyes remained shut tight.
Finally, he became enveloped in countless green lights and entered another dimension.
...
"It worked!" Colin exclaimed, opening his eyes to the positive world and beholding the familiar surroundings in his room. A surge of joy welled up inside him.
"No, it's not time to celebrate yet..." he quickly reminded himself, suppressing the joy.
He was well aware that the crisis was not resolved.
He still faced a deadly threat in the negative world , just as he had experienced being shot before. Traveling to the positive world did not save Colin from the danger in the negative world; it merely postponed the attacks. Once he returned, the peril would still be present.
But at least I've gained some precious time.
Taking a deep breath, Colin rose from the bed.
Staring at his reflection in the mirror, anxiety and worry quickly transformed into determination in his eyes.
Now, he would utilize this precious time to seize an opportunity, a chance to survive Ultron's onslaught.
With this thought in mind, Colin lowered his head and observed the Black Iron Mark on the back of his hand.
As he focused his gaze, a faint black metallic sheen shimmered on the surface of the shield-shaped S mark etched on his skin.
