Ihe narrow underground tuhe fmethrower unleashed a devastating power that surpassed even energy ons. The tinuous burst of fmes created a scorg bze, heating the air to an unbearable temperature.

  Kyle furrowed his brow and quickly retreated to a safe distance, using the recessed tunnel walls as cover to shield himself from the scorg fmes.

  If it were an energy on, it would be manageable. With his Vibranium Bracer, he could deflect the sers effortlessly. However, the widespread fmes from the fmethrower limited the defensive capabilities of his armguard.

  What made the situation even more perilous was the symbiotic suit Venom that enveloped Kyle's body. Venom, fearless against bullets and sers due to its bulletproof nature and liquid healing ability, now veyed a primal fear to its host, Kyle, uhe threat of the intense fmes.

  "Hang in there a little longer," Kyle verbally reassured Venom, as he prepared to throw his sword to elimihe guards. Just as he began to gather strength in his hand, a round object whizzed past him from behind.

  The round shield accurately struck the head of the guard wielding the fmethrower, rendering him unscious. It then quickly returned in a curved trajectory, revealing its identity as the Adamantium Shield.

  "Adamantium Shield?" Kyle turned his head quickly and saw a tall young man rushing towards him. It was her than Steve, who had hurriedly caught up with him.

  "Steve, weren't you supposed to blod clear the guards?" Kyle asked with a surprised expression on his face.

  Steve responded firmly, "There are soldiers assigo clear the guards so I came to help you with Schmidt."

  "Okay. Let's see who takes down the Hydra leader first…" Before Kyle could finish his sentence, he took off in a sprint towards the end of the tunnel.

  "No problem… Hey, don't you dare cheat!" Steve called out, keeping up with Kyle's pace without slowing down.

  The two of them swiftly traversed the final se of the underground tunnel, oer the other.

  Upon emerging from the tuhey were greeted by a wide underground base pza, filled with hundreds of armed guards wielding energy ons.

  "This is getting tiresome," Kyle coldly muttered as he uhed his longsword. Steve raised his shield with determination. Standing side by side, the two of them faced a hundred guards without fear. However, if they were deyed any lohe Hydra leader, Red Skull, would slip away.

  'Bang! Bang! Bang!'

  Just then, a rge number of Ameri soldiers armed with rifles rushed in from the underground tunnels from different dires of the underground pza. They swiftly ehe armed guards, ung a fierce assault on them.

  At the forefront of one of the squads, wearing ach, was Fury. He smiled and waved at Kyle, calling out, "Kyle, do you need reinforts?"

  Kyle breathed a sigh of relief and nodded. "Perfect timing. You're as reliable as ever!"

  As if hearing his words, a woman leading anroup of soldiers emerged from the tunnel and she remarked with a cold snort, "Who here isn't?"

  Steve g the elegant woman and jokingly said, "Agent Carter, you almost arrived te."

  "She did arrive te," Kyle corrected him, causing Agent Carter to gre at him.

  "Hahaha, so it was just me who was behind?" A casual and familiar voice sounded from behind, slightly slower than the rest.

  As the car lights tio illuminate, a sleek and stylish car drove up, stopping in front of Kyle and the others. Howard, in his ary gentlemanly manner, waved at them from the driver's seat.

  "Why did you, the logistics of the Stific Strategic Department, e here? And you even drove Schmidt's vehicle into the base," Kyle raised an eyebrow, expressing his surprise.

  Howard chuckled and replied, "This is the final battle of the European front. Of course, I had to e. After all, we are a team!"

  We? A team…

  Kyle was momentarily stunned as he looked at Fury, Agent Carter, and finally Steve and a subtle smile appeared on his lips.

  Yes, at some point, they had bee a team. A team of unstoppable bat elites.

  "Now is not the time for chatting; Schmidt is about to escape in an aircraft!" Steve suddenly remihem as he pointed his fioward the end of the underground pza.

  There, a rge transport aircraft was slowly starting up and accelerating towards the exit of the base. There was no doubt that Red Skull was onboard.

  "Get in the car, I'll take you two there!" Howard quickly said.

  Without hesitation, Kyle and Steve jumped into the car, one on each side. Howard floored the accelerator, and with the roar of the ehe car sped towards the massive aircraft.

  "We have to win this!" Agent Carter ched her fist with slight as she watched their backs until the car disappeared into the dista the end of the underground pza.

  On the aircraft taxiway in the base's underground pza…

  With wingspans of thirty meters on each side, the rge transport aircraft, with its wide and elongated design, picked up speed. Not far behind it, a car carrying three people was rag at full speed to catch up with the aircraft.

  "The pne is about to take off, and we 't catch up with this speed!" Steve frowned as he looked at the aircraft ahead, his face filled with worry.

  Kyle, oher hand, had no worries at all. He g Howard, who remained calm in the driver's seat, and urged, "Don't hold baow. Use any teology devices you have hidden in here!"

  "You caught me again. Well, tally, I've upgraded this car with some of my own teology," Howard smiled and pressed a button below the steering wheel.

  The exhaust pipes at the rear of the car immediately erupted with blue fmes and the car, already traveling at over a hundred kilometers per hour, suddenly accelerated to more than three times that speed. The strong wind pressure made Kyle and Steve hold on tightly to their seats.

  The distaween the car and the transport aircraft kept narrowing. When there were just about teers left, the area ahead suddenly lit up as bright as daylight, and the wheels of the transport aircraft began to lift off the ground.

  "The pne is taking off! Steve, send me up first!" Kyle spoke up while standing up from the fast-moving car. Steve seemed to uand what he had in mind and crouched slightly in the car seat, raising his shield.

  "Go!" Kyle took a deep breath and stepped onto the round shield, using his full strength to leap forward.

  Steve also pushed the shield forward, adding momentum to the jump.

  "Swoosh!"

  Kyle soared high into the air, swiftly crossing the teer gap. When he was just a hair's breadth away from the fusege of the aircraft, he forcefully pluhe sword in his left hand into the nding gear as a means of seg himself.

  "Kyle!" Steve shouted loudly, then jumped over as well. Kyle promptly extended his right hand, grabbing onto Steve's arm as they asded together, following the rising transport aircraft.

  On the base's runway…

  Howard ma the speeding car to a halt just before the cliff. He gazed at the transport aircraft s into the sky, with the two figures standing on the nding gear below, and softly said, "I hope you succeed in this battle. When you return, we'll drink wine and celebrate together!"

  The most important thing is that they must e back!
