Chapter 113

Whoosh whoosh whoosh————

The plane flew through the clouds.

Inside the cabin.

Several flight attendants, their faces flushed from drinking, were asleep in various poses on the large sofa.

Although these beauties were disheveled.

The three men all had class; they just enjoyed their hot dancing and didn't start any party...

[Family died early, the two siblings depended on each other, the sister was taken away by force, and the brother was beaten to death...]

"Ah—".

Tony yawned.

"Hey, Li, what is this playing on your phone? Such a cheesy story."

"Just a short video, but the big data is quite accurate."

Ye Li swiped his finger across the screen, cutting past this video, his eyes looking down from the porthole—

Grassy hills, scattered white-gray buildings.

Sokovia, had arrived.

"What are we doing in this small landlocked Eastern European country?"

Strange put down the *Magic Encyclopedia* he had bought online and looked out the window too.

"Even if you want to travel along the way, you could pick a better spot.

This place... hmm..."

He was thinking of an appropriate adjective...

Ye Li replied: "The middle of nowhere?"

Snap~

Tony snapped his fingers and interjected, "That's a very apt description."

He also felt that coming to this small place wasn't as good as going to check out Hawkins town.

"You all shouldn't underestimate this Sokovia."

Ye Li stood up, bypassed the few drunken sexy flight attendants, and went to the plane's control screen.

His fingers tapped rapidly with one hand, while the golden gemstone on the black bracelet on his other hand glowed faintly.

A few seconds later.

The Hydra data hidden in Sokovia was easily retrieved by him.

"What is this?"

Stark's gaze swept across the screen, reading ten lines at a glance, and he soon discovered something wrong.

Ye Li didn't hide anything either.

"Ever heard of Hydra?"

"Hydra? The one the Captain dealt with? They were resurrected along with Rogers?"

Tony pointed at the screen, checking the shocking data one by one, feeling somewhat incredulous.

"Oh~ Steve will definitely be excited if he knows about this... Jarvis, where did this data come from?"

[Sir]

Jarvis, who controlled the system, reported: [According to the channel provided by Mr. Ye, I performed a reverse trace; the signal source comes from the central castle in Sokovia.]

"Hey..."

Although Strange was a bit confused, he still pinched his eyebrows and complained.

"Ye, you brought me—a person with no strength to truss a chicken—and a plane full of women—

here to find a terrorist organization...?"

"Don't worry, Stephen."

Tony pointed to a storage cabinet.

Click.

The cabinet door opened automatically—

Inside was a gold-red battle suit.

"Isn't Iron Man here?"

Tony showed off, "Maybe I can solve Hydra, and liberate this country while I'm at it, so I'll have something to brag about to the Captain when I get back."

Strange: "...You're even more idle."

"Just a reminder for you all, I have no interest in dealing with Hydra; that's something for Nick Fury to worry about."

Ye Li took control of the plane, set an airport as the destination, and prepared to land—

"I came here to find a girl."

Strange: "Aha?"

Tony: "Looking for a babe?"

Strange: "You're even more boring than I thought..."

Click—

Tony beckoned with his hand, and the cabinet door containing the battle suit closed again.

He spread his arms and gestured to the beautiful ladies lying on the sofa—"Aren't they enough for you to choose from?"

"..." Ye Li couldn't be bothered to argue with him.

Wuenen—!

The plane bearing the Stark Industries logo landed at the only airport in the entire country of Sokovia...

It immediately attracted numerous gazes.

Private planes with various purposes often landed at the Sokovia airport.

But a model as high-tech as Tony's was rare.

Especially that eye-catching Stark logo, which made many interested parties start passing on the news—

Among them, the most vigilant one.

Was Baron Strucker, who had received the report.

"A private plane from Stark Industries?"

He asked his subordinate, "Did you notice who got off the plane?"

The subordinate immediately played a surveillance video and reported, "A total of three people. After facial comparison, they are Iron Man Tony Stark, Ghost-Spider Club Vice President Ye Li, and Stephen Strange, who was once a top surgeon."

"Iron Man?

Did the Avengers discover us?

Or S.H.I.E.L.D.?"

Looking at this peculiar trio.

Strucker was a bit puzzled, "And the club's vice president, plus a surgeon?"

[Redacted]

The subordinate guessed: "If they had discovered us, they shouldn't have come with so few people, and so brazenly. They might have other business..."

"Pfft~"

Strucker sneered.

"Besides us, what other business could bring them to a small country like Sokovia?"

He looked at an energy cannon placed by his side; this was a Chitauri weapon just transported from New York.

Through spies planted in S.H.I.E.L.D., the organization had quite a few such Chitauri technology wrecks.

Even...

In the factory behind Strucker, there was the remains of a Leviathan warship, a piece of equipment they had gone to great lengths to obtain.

However, this wreck had some defects and was almost reduced to a pile of mush; he didn't know which superhero had dealt such a heavy blow...

"The things were just delivered, and Iron Man came..."

Strucker sneered.

"There must be a traitor who leaked the news... otherwise it wouldn't be so fast. Investigate the people below strictly!"

"Yes."

After the subordinate took the order, he asked again, "Then... Iron Man and those people?"

"Hmm......"

Strucker pondered for a while and said.

"Don't disturb them before they make a move. Notify the R&D personnel to speed up weapon development..."

Vroom~

Bang!

Winika made a beautiful leap from the plane to her master's side, barking happily twice.

"Baa-baa~"

Ye Li patted her leather seat and didn't mount her, "Want to go for a walk? Lower the engine by 21 points and follow slowly."

"You're chatting with a motorcycle?"

Tony brought Stephen down and teased Ye Li, "I thought you weren't that mushy."

"Tony, I suggest you don't follow. Stay on the plane and keep your beauties company."

Ye Li replied, while reaching out to take the Mind Scepter clipped to Winika's back seat.

"Oh, why?"

Tony put on his sunglasses and scanned the surroundings, "There seem to be quite a few people here who recognize me, they look quite enthusiastic... oh, they're coming over..."
