------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I debated over my options, and decided to kill the other winter soldiers, saving Bucky would be beneficial yes, but it was a high risk bet, for one, if they activated him before I could kill those guarding him, I would be fucked, so in a long term case, dealing with the ones they left behind was a considerably better choice.

Best case would've been being able to save him and kill the rest, but I didn't have the tools to destroy the base and save Bucky at the same time, as it was I was already risking a lot by still being here, so any mistake could potentially lead to my inevitable capture.

Using [Sight] I eyed Bucky one more time, before I closed my connection with him, sorry Bucky, but unfortunately you are not my priority, I am not Cap.

[Sight has leveled up!]

Huh, I guess using it so much really paid off, "Alright, time to kill some Winter Soldiers," I muttered, as I started to plan how to enter the room where they were keeping the winter soldiers.

Seeing as the room had only one entrance from my side, and one from the back, with both apparently needed a special code to enter, I had but one choice, using the vent I had discovered using [Sight], but as I had said earlier the vent was connected to a gas tank ready to be used at Hydra's command, meaning, I first needed to take care of the gas, then of the soldiers.

Nodding to myself, I walked out of the broom closet I was hiding in, using [sight] on the surveillance room as I climbed to the vent with relative ease, then ripping the vent open with my bare hands I entered the vent, and started to crawl over to the gas room.

Now, all I had to do was crawl my way over to the gas room, and cut the connection said room had to the ventilation system of the base, effectively eliminating the biggest threat to my mission.

"There it is," I grinned, reaching the vent that connected to the gas room, now all I had to do was block that up, but how… "Mana arrows?"

I didn't have a skill for this situation, so I improvised, I mean, I was the gamer after all, so, using my skill mana arrows I focused my mana on my hands creating two balls of energy that I didn't let go, then I used said balls of energy to melt the vent shut, it was surprisingly easy.

[A new skill had being created = Mana Forge]

Mana forge, I wonder if… "That for later Alex, focus on the task at hand,"

Now that the gas room aka the biggest problem on my list was effectively neutralized, it was time to eliminate the Winter Soldiers, with that in mind, I crawled my way to the room where my targets were, kicking the vent open as I jumped out of it.

Once outside, I stretched, grabbing a gun from my inventory, "I love that Hydra made it easy for me to kill you guys," I said, pressing the trigger, killing the cryogenized soldiers with a bullet to the head each.

[YOU HAVE LEVEL UP!]

[YOU HAVE LEVEL UP!]

[YOU HAVE LEVEL UP!]

Three levels, wow, I did not expect that. I suppose killing them was somewhat special then.

As I pondered over this, the alarms went off, and I knew what it meant , Hydra knew I was here, I guess it was unavoidable, sighing. I made my way to the vent, but stopped, my mind going over an idea so crazy, it might just… work, what if, I studied the blood of the winter soldiers… I mean, they were lesser versions of Captain America, but their blood had information about the super soldier serum.

"This is going to make my exit harder than it has to be, but… fuck it," turning around, I opened all the cryo-genic pots and with my machete cut the arms of every single one of the winter soldiers, and put them on my inventory, I would later see if I could get anything with them. "Ok, time to kill some bastards,"

[Quest created: YOU ARE THE TARGET OF THE WINTER SOLDIER

Hydra has started to activate the Winter Soldier to hunt you down in their base, you have two hours and ten minutes before he is fully functional to kill him or escape the base.

Objective: Survive

Failure: Capture

Reward: 500.000 EXP, 150.000$]

Hmm, ain't this a surprise, they sure went all out with this red alarm, so Bucky is being activated, and I have two hours to escape, hahah, please, as if I needed two hours to fuck this base off, without Bucky, this was a low level area for me.

Running to the vent, I climbed inside the vent and crawled out of the room to a hall where no less than fifty Hydra soldiers were waiting for me. With a grin, I kicked the vent open, and ducked out of the rain of bullets they threw at me finding cover behind a wall where I used my telekinesis to grab and take their weapons with a quick pull.

"I can't wait to be bullet proof, I wonder how much DEF I need for that," I hummed deep in thought, throwing a few grenades at them, courtesy of Fury, killing them all. "I should really thank Fury for all the illegal weapons he gets me…" I chuckled, grabbing a rifle from my inventory, also courtesy of Fury.

[2:08:45]

A timer, what a little nice touch, every day I learn something new from my powers, "Ok, I have enough time to burn this base to the ground and get some food on the way home,"

"He's over there!" I heard someone shout.

Turning around, I aimed my free hand at the person who had shouted and blasted him with a mana arrow, as I ran towards the rest of his group shooting my rifle at them.
