MARVEL: GAMER PATH - CHAPTER 40 (Patreon)
Content
Canada was surprisingly clean of the disease known as Hydra, well as clean as they could be, as clean as anyone could be considering everything. And so far in the two weeks I’ve been coming and going off Canada and Nepal, I have managed to discover 69 bases, which was literally nothing compared to what the amount the USA had at one point, which made me wonder how many bases did Germany had, I mean they started there, I think, I never read about Hydra and their beginnings, never really cared about them, until this world happened.
Anyway, now that I knew where all the bases in Canada were located with precision, it was time to bomb them, so, one by one I started to open the portals, dropping my holly jolly Christmas gifts like Papa Noel on crack, ho ho ho on them bitches. I continued doing this, until in one of the bases, I saw something as I was about to drop the bomb, a glimpse of information in one of the computers that stopped me from bombing the place.
The location of the Winter Soldier, the only one they still had. “Well, ain't that interesting,” I smirked, putting the bomb back in my inventory as I jumped through the portal into the base.
“Intruder!” Six seconds to notice me, not bad I suppose.
Without stopping, I looked at the Hydra agents raising their guns, as I made my way to the computer where I had caught the glimpse of information about Bucky and his location, then with a quick glance, I memorized where Bucky was, according to the computer, he was in one of the Siberian bases, as I did this, they all started shooting at me, but I paid them no mind, the Eldritch Shield would take care of any attacks. “Alright, I have what I need.” I nodded, dropping the bomb on the floor as I opened a portal out of there. “Enjoy~” I waved at them, as the portal closed, seconds later, a big explosion was heard in the distance.
Now, the question was, do I kill Bucky, or try to save him, as I am now, both are very possible, “I guess, I will know when I see him,” I muttered, opening a portal to Siberia, a few miles away from the coordinates I had seen in the computer.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Outside the base in Siberia, I used [sight] to assess the situation within, and so far, I saw nothing that would make my mission extremely difficult, in fact, it would be a breeze for what it looked like. “Now where are you Bucky,” I muttered, looking through the place, stopping when something caught my attention, a dot moving on my minimap, using [Sight] I changed my view to that moving dot, seeing none other than Bucky Barnes getting back from a mission on his motorcycle, meaning, I could bomb the base, and deal with him. “Hello there,” I grinned, opening a portal to where he was.
Stepping out of the portal, I stopped his motorcycle with my telekinesis, shattering the tires with ease. Outside, the night was cold, as a winter-like chill permeated the air, I guess that’s Siberia for you.
Bucky, who had just now recovered from the sudden intervention of my telekinesis on his bike that had made him crash against a tree violently, started shooting at me with his assault rifle, all while I opened a portal to the base a few miles behind us, dropping one of my merry jolly holly bombs inside the base, I really didn’t need to focus on Bucky right now, my [Eldritch Shield] was more than sufficient to stop his bullets.
Seconds later after dropping the bomb, a big explosion was heard at the distance, as Bucky glared at me in realization, “It was you… you are the one destroying our bases,”
I smiled, as innocently as possible, “I am,” I nodded.
“I will kill you,” Bucky stated, with a growl as I inspected his level, [Bucky Barnes LV 134] Oh, he had leveled up, good for him.
“Do we have to do this Bucky?” I inquired, “Hydra will soon be no more, I can help you… you know?”
“Alex Walker.”, the Winter Soldier replied “You are nothing but a broken tool, a reckless murderer who leaves a trail of blood everywhere he goes. Today, I will end your life.” funny coming from Mr. Brainwash.
I almost chuckled at his bravado. I knew in terms of physical prowess he was stronger than me, but I wasn't only a warrior, I was also a mage, I guess what I am trying to say is... who brings a gun to a magic fight.
“Very well then,” I sighed, “Shall we?” though, I was curious, curious of finding out how far away were our physical might, so for a bit, I would test my might against him, I mean, I could always stop him with my magic, or telekinesis, right now, I just wanted to have some fun. “But first,” I winked, breaking his guns with telekinesis, what I wanted was an old fist fight, no guns allowed.
With growl showing his annoyance, Bucky quickly closed the gap between us, darting at me with lethal precision, sending a flying kick my way. Seeing through his attack, I caught his foot as it arrived, only to receive a kick from the second foot on my chest.
“Ok, this is fun,” I chuckled, much to his surprise.
“You are crazy,” Bucky scoffed.
“True,” I nodded, rushing at him, using my momentum to punch his face with a [focused strike].
In pain, Bucky staggered back. But soon turned around, using his metal arm to punch my guts, breaking a few of my ribs in the process, then as I doubled over in pain he kneed my face with savage strength, throwing me into the snow, once on the snow, gasping in pain, he jumped on me and started to choke me with his metal arm, as I started to question my choices, why was I even doing this?
“Ok, time to use magic,” I sighed in a strained voice, nose bleeding on the snow as he continued to choke me. It was time to play on my terms, I had already tested my strength, and while I could win in the long run, it would be painful, and I wanted no pain. “Well, that’s enough,” I roared, breaking his hold with my telekinesis, then using my [Eldritch Whip] I wrapped him with lasso, sealing his movements immobilizing him in place, with sigh I approached the struggling Bucky, slamming my palm to his chest, summoning the Eldritch power within me to pull his spirit out. “Should’ve started with that…” I chuckled.
{What… in the actual fuck!?} The disembodied voice of Bucky spirit growled, floating around me angrily.
“Shut it,” I sighed, healing my wounds with a potion.
