908

In the corridors of S.H.I.E.L.D., Shiller was heading towards the infirmary, holding a medical record. A stern-faced Nick Fury was walking towards him. Shiller nodded at him, but Nick didn't respond.

Although his dark skin made it difficult to discern any change in his complexion, the downturned corners of his mouth and the bulge of his temples suggested that he had just been furious, and was still very angry.

After Nick Fury had passed Shiller, Shiller shook his head and proceeded towards his intended room. The door was not yet fully closed, indicating Nick had just come out of there.

Inside, there were two hospital beds. On one, Captain America, his arm bandaged, was laying there slightly tranquil. But from his trembling eyelashes, it was clear that he was not asleep and was quite restless at that moment.

Shiller turned his head and saw a cup that had been thrown on the ground. Water stains on his shoes spread to outside the door. It appeared a heated argument had just taken place in the room. But when Shiller arrived, all that was left was Captain America's somewhat heavy breathing.

Sitting down by the bed, Shiller put the medical record down. He looked at Captain America and asked, "What's going on? Did you have a fight with the Director? Why?"

Raising his arm to shield his eyes as if avoiding Shiller's gaze, Captain America said, "Shiller... no, Dr. Mannell, you've been a military doctor in the Polaris fleet for so long. Don't you understand our superiors?"

Shiller lowered his head slightly and sighed softly, saying, "It is because I understand him that I came to persuade you, Barack, you have served in the fleet for many years. You must know better than me. When he led the Polaris fleet to flee, his only ideal was to revive the Skrull Empire..."

"But the Skrull Empire doesn't need reviving!" Captain America looked at Shiller and said, "They still possess vast territories and a formidable fleet deep in the cosmos, and we... we know why we ended up here, he knows better than anyone..."

Shiller inhales deeply and says, "Let's not bring up the past, now, you and I are under his command. The earlier plans were going smoothly and it made him more obsessed with reviving the Skrull Empire on Earth."

"The plan hasn't been going well recently, naturally he'll be angry. Barack, look, he holds the last main ship of the Polaris fleet…"

"Yes, after the disaster, that monster consumed our main star and nearly ninety percent of our defense fleet. The remaining fleet was divided into several groups and saved the surviving Skrulls."

"From then on, we embarked on a journey of wandering. In fact, we should have gathered all our strength, found a new home, and once again developed our own civilization."

"But him, a general who was excluded from the center of power due to disagreements in politics, claims we will roam forever without a homeland. Then, he led the most powerful fleet and left our people..."

A complex expression, furious, guilty, and sad, appeared on Captain America's handsome face. As he spoke, his voice began to tremble, "Back then, Talos came to Earth with us, but there are reasons why he would go his own way."

"Our general took the most powerful fleet of the Skrulls, leaving the people we once swore to protect to wander helplessly in the cosmos."

"Revive the Skrull Empire? No, the reason why he is so eager to implement his plan is because humanity has begun to step into the universe. They are beginning to listen to the news in the universe."

"Ordinary people first heard of the Nine Major Kingdoms and Asgard, and then they heard rumors about the 'Three Great Empires of the Universe'. To his disappointment, the Skrull Empire is still one of the 'Three Great Empires' and may even be the strongest empire."

"When Talbert and I first heard this news, we were overjoyed. Our homeland still existed, our people are still alive, they are doing great, and we still have places to return..."

"But do you know the expression he had?" Captain America made a ludicrous expression, saying, "He felt anger, jealousy, disbelief ..."

"He thinks that those despicable men who disagree with him can't possibly rebuild the great Skrull Empire, only he can be right. He has been thinking this way for years."

"He thinks he has deceived Odin, fooled everyone in Asgard, sneaked into the Greenhouse of the cosmos, and is about to overthrow this weak civilization from within."

Captain America shook his head and said, "Every inch of land among the Nine Major Kingdoms is under Odin's inspection. The only reason he let us come in is that we are too weak, even comparable to humans."

"What do we have left? A crazy general, a group of homeless dogs stranded and unable to return home, a spaceship that is hidden away, and we dare not show it to people. The Skrull Empire is still great, but it has nothing to do with this fallen dog."
