335 Chapter: 335
The terrorist attack on the United Nations headquarters in Vienna has become a hot topic of frenzied global media coverage. In this incendiary situation, both the United Nations leadership and the Vienna government officials responded swiftly.
After evacuating the personnel from the scene, an immediate investigation into the incident and tracking of the Green Goblin began. A large number of personnel were dispatched to guard the scene and gather evidence, demonstrating astonishing operational efficiency.
The Avengers, who received no instructions or appointments from the United Nations Special Oversight Group, could only return to their respective hotel rooms, awaiting further messages and arrangements.
The most challenging issue now is that the audacious terrorist attack by the Green Goblin has caused a sensation. It not only raised doubts about the capabilities and credibility of the United Nations among people worldwide but also pushed the Avengers into a passive situation.
They are currently unable to determine whether the painstakingly negotiated Accords will be signed or not, and if it is to be signed, when that will happen.
Especially today, the Green Goblin's direct challenge and provocation against journalists and media representatives from various countries on the scene have validated Mark's previous point.
Since the emergence of these superheroes, it has indeed incited a desire for supervillains to issue challenges. This might prompt the United Nations to reconsider the terms and provisions of Accords.
"They've provoked us to the point where they've killed a king right in front of us, and yet we're stuck in our hotel rooms, waiting idly without any knowledge of whether the United Nations will give us a directive!"
After returning to the hotel, the three members of the original opposition gathered in Captain's room, clearly dissatisfied with the current situation. Sam was the first to express his anger.
Originally, he and Scarlet Witch came here to sign the Accords because Captain had made his stance clear and had persuaded them with the unity of the Avengers as a reason.
But the current situation is incredibly frustrating. Such an event has occurred, yet they cannot respond or counterattack in any way. This not only suppresses and discourages their morale but will also create a very negative impact among the people who support them.
Sitting next to Falcon, Scarlet Witch didn't express her thoughts, but her equally dissatisfied expression and the frequent nods of agreement while Falcon spoke indicated her alignment with Falcon's sentiments. She was equally discontent with the Avengers' current situation.
Captain nodded in understanding of their emotions. In fact, he himself felt deeply uncomfortable with the current situation. Having strength and various high-tech equipment at his disposal, yet being unable to use them, this feeling of helplessness was torturous for someone as duty-bound as him.
However, prior to this, he had made an agreement with Mark. For the sake of unity, stability, and long-term development of the Avengers, he temporarily conceded to the United Nations.
Simultaneously, he aimed to use this external pressure to reposition the Avengers' responsibilities and undertake internal institutional reforms.
On one hand, there's the dissatisfaction and complaints of the teammates, and on the other hand, there's the agreement with Mark. Captain is currently caught in a dilemma, his brow furrowed, and his face full of worry. It's evident that he's unable to provide a solution that satisfies everyone.
Knock~ Knock~ Knock~
Just as Captain was struggling, the sound of someone knocking on the door reached the room. Falcon, who was closer to the door, stood up and opened it, revealing Mark standing outside.
"Sam? Isn't this Captain's room?" Mark looked at Sam, who opened the door for him, with some confusion. Then his gaze shifted beyond Sam's figure, looking into the room.
Upon seeing Scarlet Witch and Captain inside, Mark immediately understood what was going on. These two must be here to complain to Captain.
"Wanda and I had something to discuss with Captain, but why did you come to Captain's room to find him?"
"Sam, Can I come in before we can talk? Or are we going to have an important conversation right here at the doorway?" Mark said, a hint of skepticism in his tone.
Hearing Mark's words, Sam realized that blocking Mark like this wasn't appropriate, so he moved aside to give Mark space to enter.
"We're almost done discussing what Wanda and I came to talk to Captain about, so we won't disturb your conversation," Falcon said, giving Scarlet Witch a meaningful look.
Scarlet Witch immediately caught on, stood up, and walked towards the door. "Captain, Sam and I will head back now. We hope you'll have a response to the questions we raised later."
…
Watching Falcon and Scarlet Witch exit the room and close the door behind them, Captain finally let out a long sigh of relief.
"So, did they come over to pressure you?" Mark asked Captain with an amused tone, as if he was enjoying the spectacle.
"Don't take pleasure in this situation. It's all because of your plan that I'm in this predicament. Sam and Wanda agreed to come and sign the Accords under my persuasion. Now that things have turned out like this, of course, they would be discontented.
That's why they came directly to my room just now, wanting me to take a stance. I understand their intentions very well. Either I find a convincing reason to continue persuading them, or I join them in responding to the Green Goblin's provocation."
"It does sound quite troublesome. Typical symptoms of adolescent idealism, always wanting to use their own power to uphold justice, without considering how such actions might affect the balance of power among different forces.
However, Captain, if you don't follow my plan, I believe your situation would be even more difficult to navigate."
Captain nodded, understanding the implications in Mark's words. If it weren't for Mark informing him about Bucky's situation in advance, the situation would be far more complicated than it is now. "So, what did you come to see me for?"
"Bucky has been out for so long without any news reaching us. I'm a bit concerned about him and T'Challa. They might have encountered some trouble.
While the Green Goblin may not possess strong and formidable superpowers like Wanda and Peter, his cunning nature combined with various high-tech resources make him a formidable adversary.
Not to mention, after T'Challa launched an attack against him before, he's likely to be on guard..."
"Indeed, from the Green Goblin's previous attack on the United Nations building, it's evident that his actions, though outwardly mad, are meticulously planned step by step.
He conducted detailed investigations on each one of us Avengers in advance, leaving us powerless against his sudden appearance.
T'Challa, without proper preparation, and Bucky, who was mobilized on short notice, might very well fall into the traps set by the Green Goblin."
Just as Captain finished speaking, the television in the hotel room, which had been turned off, suddenly switched on by itself. The screen displayed none other than the Green Goblin, who declared war on the Avengers...
