Marvel Shuttling the Heavens - Chapter 191
Nobody was really surprised by Captain America’s persistence. Indeed, he wouldn’t be Captain America if he walked away from a challenge!
Li Yue was quite impressed. This was why Captain America had been able to lead the Avengers: not because of his combat strength, but his ability to inspire everyone and fight anyone!
Even when facing Thanos’ unending armies, and even when his shield was shattered, he bravely stood back up and fight to the last moment!
Therefore, this was but a momentary setback for the Captain. Li Yue naturally expected Captain America to forge through anyway, since the failure rate wasn’t that high!
…
The Captain entered the experiment room with a grave expression, as if he was ready to die, prepared for the third serum administration!
“Phew… I am ready. Come on!”
Captain America took a deep breath. This would be the second time that a special serum was injected to his body. Although he was still a little nervous, he was not too worried.
Captain America felt nostalgic as he saw Tony besides him. He reminisced of when he was injected with the super-soldier serum, which gave him extraordinary physique! And now, he was about to receive a new serum.
He recalled that Howard Stark had been the one who injected him with the serum, and now, 70 years later, Howard’s son Tony would be injecting him with yet more serum!
“Hey? Steve, what’s with that look in your eyes?”
Tony was a little confused when he saw Captain America’s eyes filled with all complicated emotion. Why would he be so conflicted when nothing was happening yet?
“Oh, it’s nothing. I just remembered something from the past! Come on, give me the injection!”
A hint of disappointment flashed on Captain America’s eyes when his nostalgia was interrupted by Tony, but he simply smiled and buried his feelings!
“Dummy, give him the injection!”
Tony shook his head and said nothing more to the Captain. He wasn’t really interested in the Captain’s past, so when the Captain gave the ready signal, he told Dummy to begin the injection!
Although Dummy was sometimes very stupid and always messed up the things that Tony ordered him to do, injecting the serum was simple enough for him!
Captain America’s body might be strong, but it was only several times stronger than normal people. He was far cry from Li Yue or Thor, so Tony could just inject him with the serum normally!
…
Tony pulled Dummy out of the room after the injection finished. He then monitored Captain America’s situation and vitals closely!
The people outside the room could not do anything to help or interfere with the process, so they could only watch as Captain America knitted his brows closer and closer, as if he was enduring great pain!
Everyone could only silently pray for him in their hearts, hoping that he would succeed!
“The serum has begun to work. I just don’t know if he can succeed!” Tony whispered as he watched the graphs and numbers on his instruments.
Despite his usual attitude, Tony was laser focused at this critical moment!
Captain America’s body suddenly trembled, just like Thor did! He clenched his teeth, closed his eyes, and frowned! Endless pain was constantly attacking his body!
“Look, look, Li Yue. Thor and Steve reacted the same way! The mutation process inflict intense pain, and only a pervert like you can sleep in that situation!”
Tony sighed in relief when he saw that the parameters stay within his expectation. He then joked with Li Yue to ease the heavy atmosphere!
“Hehe…”
Tony: “…”
Li Yue did not want to argue with Tony about this, so he simply chuckled!
…
Tony wasn’t interested in continuing to tease Li Yue after Li Yue laugh at him. He returned to quietly watching the instruments and Captain America!
Time slowly passed, and in the blink of an eye, more than ten minutes passed.
Captain America didn’t show any visible changes in the meanwhile, and he still looked like he was in pain.
Tony looked at the instrument with a serious expression. Perhaps the Captain was approaching the critical moment!
“Hey, sorry to keep you all waiting. I’m back!”
A voice suddenly came from behind the observers. When they turned their head, they found Thor walking towards them with a relaxed expression!
“Thor! How is it? Do you like the side effects?”
Tony’s serious face disappeared when he saw Thor, replaced by a bright smile!
“Humph, how could a mere diarrhea defeat the son of Odin and the most powerful of the Asgardians!”
Thor revealed a confident and powerful expression!
“Hehe, don’t be too happy just yet. This is just the beginning!”
Tony replied Thor’s proud expression with a meaningful smile! That smile gave Thor a bad feeling!
Could it be that this damn side effect was not over yet? It was just the beginning?
“Oh right, has Steve started the serum injection? How is he now?”
Thor quickly expelled this idea from his mind and changed the topic!
“Fuck, that feeling is coming again. Just hold for a second, it would just be a moment!”
However, Thor could receive a reply, he felt a familiar feeling in his stomach. Like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, he quickly turned around and rushed back to the bathroom!
“Haha, I told you, this is just the beginning!”
Tony could not help but laugh as he watched Thor leave quickly.
…
“Tony, forget about Thor; I feel like there’s something wrong with the Captain! Hurry up and see what’s going on!
Li Yue suddenly shouted at Tony!
“Don’t worry, he’s fine. This is the critical moment where the mutation is reaching completion. He should begin awakening his special superpower soon! …though, his body temperature IS a bit abnormal. It’s rising too much!
“It’s even higher than your body temperature, and it’s still rising very fast!”
Doctor Banner, who was still observing the instruments, suddenly spoke to comfort Li Yue.
Tony hurriedly returned his attention from Thor to the instrument. He concluded the same thing as Banner!
“Yes, just like Bruce said, it seems like Steve successfully accepted the serum! And it seems like he’s actually awakening his superpower, unlike you and Thor. I just don’t know what kind of superpower he would awaken—I wonder if it would be a strong one?
“His body temperature is abnormal, but I don’t know if it is good or bad!”
Tony’s expression was filled with anticipation. He wanted to know what kind of superpower the Captain had awakened!
The Captain suddenly stopped trembling. It seemed that the pain had subsided!
Captain America’s closed eyes suddenly opened. Two faint yellow rays of light suddenly shot out of them, before dissipating in the air!
“This is… what is going on? This is too much of a coincidence!”
Li Yue felt like he didn’t have large enough brain to comprehend the sight before him. It was too shocking! How could this be? How could the Captain awaken this kind of superpower?
“Everyone, look! Steve has self-ignited!”
