If everything went like it should have, the Iron Man III plot would still be going on, and wouldn't finish for a long time.

However a variable had appeared, and it's name was Bruce. He advanced every plot by a decent margin, and for Bruce, this meant that he no longer needed to completely go with the flow as he had originally done.

This was only so for the time being, as Bruce was still relatively early into the plot. However in the future, he would be able to fully control the plot and do whatever he wanted without consequences.

However what disappointed Bruce a little was that after the end of Iron Man III's plot, the system had not given him a new function. But while he was a tad disappointed, he could still understand.

If he wanted the system to open up more and more powerful functions, he needed to complete tasks related to the real plot, and not short plots with relatively no meaning. Besides, the current functions of the system were more than enough for him to do many things.

Soon after, Bruce returned to Avengers Base.

At this moment, the Avengers Base had many agents on guard duty, yet no superheroes. It made sense if one thought about it, the superheroes such as Captain America were the S.H.I.E.L.D. 's trump card.

Wherever there was a major accident, the Avengers would be dispatched. So naturally, they wouldn't use their trump card for guard duty.

As for Bruce, he no longer had to obey S.H.I.E.L.D.'s orders. This was of course, because Bruce was strong enough. If it was anyone else, they would have long since been kicked out as an example to the others.

Just as Bruce entered the Avenger base, Fury walked in his room.

"I've received news that the Ten Rings headquarters has been destroyed and Mandarin has also died." Fury looked at Bruce, a tad surprised.

This was because he had never given Bruce such an order, he had only wanted Bruce to bring Iron Man back.

And yet unexpectedly, Bruce had directly wiped out the Ten Rings in their entirety, which was way beyond his expectations. For such a large organization to be destroyed in such a short amount of time, was truly surprising, as even S.H.I.E.L.D. themselves didn't know the location of their headquarters.

At this moment, Bruce was even more mysterious to Fury than he already was.

"Stark will be back soon. He's fine." Of course, Bruce knew what Fury was concerned about. It was mainly about Stark's safety.

Upon hearing Bruce's reply, Fury stopped saying anything else. Before this, the moment Bruce told him everything related to Parker, he already knew that he wouldn't be able to control him.

This was especially the case now that Pierce had set his eyes on Bruce, tying Fury's hands even more. He had absolutely zero control over Bruce, as if he attempted to force Bruce to do anything, it would only backfire.

"Go and have a good rest. I'll take care of matters now." After saying that, Fury immediately left.

The Ten Rings organization had had a great relationship with HYDRA, and Fury had wanted to find out something from this event. He had even suspected that there were HYDRA undercover agents inside of S.H.I.E.L.D.

But he couldn't be certain, so for the time being, he wouldn't let anything that was related to HYDRA go easily. However, Fury would never have imagined that his immediate superior, the former director, would actually be a member of the HYDRA.

And regarding this, Bruce would naturally not tell him.

After that, Bruce returned to his room and opened his system panel.

——

[Name]: Bruce Lite

[Identity]: Level 6 agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.

[Ability]: Demigod Body, God's Bloodline, Godly Fighting ability, Control of Thunder and Lightning, Spider Telepathy, Extremis virus, Body and Shield as one.

[Warehouse]: Super Vibranium shield, Mark 8 armor.

[Balance]: 2 million US dollars.

[Energy value]: 3,150 points

——

This time, destroying the Ten Rings organization had netted him more than 3,000 points of energy value in total.

With such a large amount of energy value, he could integrate his abilities one by one without suffering too much. However Bruce didn't do that, because each point saved was precious, and the real effects of integration were only revealed when multiple abilities were involved.

So since he didn't have a lot of new abilities yet, Bruce would use the over 3,000 points for other purposes.

The big problem he faced now was how to enter the European Secret Base of HYDRA. Pierce was definitely his breakthrough point, but he could not directly ask him about it, otherwise Pierce would get suspicious.

He had also not seen Black Widow or Captain America recently, which probably meant that he would soon enter the "Captain America: The Winter Soldier" plot, or at least that was his guess.

As for the plot of ''Thor: The Dark World'' and "Guardians of the Galaxy", both occurred in Asgard and outer space, so he could probably not participate.

During this period of time, it was best for Bruce to speed up the plot of "Avengers: Age of Ultron". But this required some time, and he could not do it at present.

Fortunately, his deadline was three months. Otherwise, he really wouldn't be able to complete this mission.

Bruce also didn't plan on participating in the plot of "Captain America: The Winter Soldier," as there really wasn't much that interested him there.

During that plot, S.H.I.E.L.D. would dissolve, and nothing else of much importance would happen. Although the Winter Soldier was very powerful, he didn't have any abilities that interested Bruce.

Therefore, Bruce's next plan was to enter HYDRA's secret base. Then make Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch trust him completely, all within the three month timeframe given by the system. Optimally, he would finish that before the start of "Avengers: Age of Ultron."

Only then would he be able to take complete control of the situation. Thinking about this, Bruce began to make plans.

Once he finished the task given by the system, he could report the location of HYDRA's secret base to S.H.I.E.L.D. And with that, he would advance the plot to the second stage.

He thought back to the Marvel movies he had seen again and again, so as not to miss anything. In the following days, Bruce ignored the outside world completely.

Iron Man appeared in the public eyes again after having been missing for three to four days. Although that had caused some waves, it had nothing to do with Bruce.

Hulk was nowhere to be found, and was completely hidden by S.H.I.E.L.D. Hawkeye had probably established his own family by now, so there was nothing special about him.

The most active and busy people of the Avengers were Black Widow and Captain America, who were actively completing task after task for S.H.I.E.l.D.

While everything was slowly developing, Bruce had been staying inside the S.H.I.E.L.D. the whole time.

During this period, he had been training new agents and becoming more familiar with his abilities. It could be said that his life was tedious and ordinary during this time.

I have fully adapted to my three new abilities, and my biggest advantage in combat is now my physical strength and defense as well as my ability to control lightning and thunder.

During these days, he had developed a comprehensive understanding of his body. The most important point was that he learned how to make full use of his strength in combat, and it could be said that Bruce had already mastered everything related to it.

Although he had not downloaded any new abilities these days, his overall strength had improved a lot.

"Beep!" It was at this time that Bruce's cell phone on the table suddenly vibrated.

The message he received didn't contain any words, just numbers that represented coordinates.

Finally, you couldn' t hold back. After reading the message, a hint of a smile appeared on Bruce's face.

Fury wouldn't contact him in this way, and the only other person inside S.H.I.E.L.D. that knew his mobile number, was Pierce.

It seemed that HYDRA had begun acting at last.
