Chapter 218: Nebraska (II)…

[POV Reo]

Nemuri and I appeared in some random alley. Both of us walked out of the alley and I found that Nemuri had teleported us near O street. Personally, I didn't know anything in Nebraska but the signs near the streets helped. I remembered the building name from that guy's memories… neither of us knew where that building was. Nemuri might know a lot of stuff but it's kind of impossible to know everything in this city.

So, we decided to take a cab… after all, that is something reasonable. I hailed a cab and asked the guy about the building and he immediately agreed to take us. The streets were quite busy…  the traffic systems were still broken so, on every crossing, two or three traffic police have been stationed.

Because of the shitty traffic management, it took us one hour to finally reach the building. I regretted shutting down their traffic systems but nothing could be done now…

After getting off the cab both me and Nemuri decided to look around first. Nemuri got us hamburgers from a street shop. We have been out all day and we were hungry… you can't massacre a whole city on an empty stomach!! Even if we were immortal we still felt hunger… yes, maybe, we could survive for a long time without food but we would still feel hunger because of our usual eating routines.

Both I and Nemuri decided to sit down on a bench by the street while we finished our food. We won't be satisfied with just one hamburger so we decided to call a food break.

"So, how are we going to do this?" Nemuri asked before taking a bite of her burger.

"Sneakily… we need to sneak until we find John Sublime" I said to Nemuri after I swallowed everything in my mouth.

"Who is this Sublime by the way?" Nemuri asked and raised her eyebrow in my direction.

"From what information I had gathered Sublime is a sentient and intelligent bacteria which likes to take rides on human hosts…" I started to explain to Nemuri. She intently listened to what I was saying. During the explanation, we finished our burgers so Nemuri got up and brought us chicken sub rolls. I continued explaining to her about Sublime.

"So, you are saying that we need to mark this bacteria? Why not kill it?" Nemuri asked with a confused look on her face. While talking with Nemuri I have decided that I would allow Sublime to run away after I mark him. I wasn't doing this because of overconfidence but because I wanted to destroy everything Sublime created before I took care of him. There was another reason I was doing this… I didn't know that Sublime was in this Universe when I arrived here that is the reason I never tried to find him.

But suddenly, Sublime popped up like a hidden villain. So, I wanted to know if there were more hidden villains out there or not. Sublime had been on this planet since the beginning of life so there was a very good chance that he knew about dangerous entities hidden around the world and he might lead me to one of them… and the reason I am choosing this path is because I know that Sublime is the biggest coward in this whole world… as soon as he finds that someone like me is after his life… he will run off to someone strong who could oppose me…

Sublime might be a coward but a fool he is not. So, he will only approach people who have the ability to oppose me. Hehe… this way I could rid the world of some future villains and there might be some comic exclusive in this world.

"Yes, I want him to escape. He is a coward and he would go to any lengths for self-preservation. I want to see if he could lead me some future threats" I said with a shrug.

Nemuri just nodded her head and continued to munch down the sub. After eating the sub we decided to have a cola before we went sneaking into the Trask Industries Headquarters.

"Ah! That hit the spot" I declared with a burp and noticed that Nemuri was lost in her thoughts.

"What's on your mind?" I asked her pulling her out of her thoughts.

"…I was thinking about how are you to destroy this whole city? This city is quite big" Nemuri asked me.

"Nemuri, even if the city is huge, the city is still filled with metal… as long as they have metal I have nothing to worry about" I said while stretching my arms and caused a small earthquake by rattling the metals around us. People around us were surprised by the sudden quake but nobody bothered with it and everyone returned to what they were doing.

"Cool!!" Nemuri exclaimed with stars in her eyes and glomped on me. After some struggle, I was able to get out of her hug.

"We wasted a lot of time… let's go and mark him" I said and headed towards the building. While walking towards the building both of us cast notice-me-not charms on ourselves along with disillusionment charms, body heat masking charm, silencing charm on our feet… we might sound slightly paranoid but we wanted to cover all of our bases.

"How are we going to recognize him" Nemuri furiously whispered to me when we finally arrived in front of the building.

"Read my surface thought" I said and stared into her eyes while thinking about the face I have found in that guy's memory. I felt a foreign presence in my mind and as soon as it appeared it disappeared. Nemuri smirked and nodded her head… this was the best way to show her how Sublime looked after all, I wasn't going to draw a sketch now and the guy didn't have any digital identity and even if he had any… he was definitely using a fake name.

I gestured Nemuri to follow me and both of us entered the building. From the information I got from the guy's head, you needed to punch a secret code on the center lift to access the underground facility. There were other methods to enter the facility but this was used for the visitors where you didn't need any biometric scans to gain access. But this entrance was the hardest to break into… but if you can use magic like us then this was the easiest way to break into the facility.

I walked up to the lift in the center and after entering I punched the codes and the lift started to descend immediately. We silently listened to the lift music until the lift finally stopped and the doors opened with a ding sound. As soon as the lift opened we found ourselves in the corridor filled with 4 guys with submachine guns and two automatic turrets and a checkpoint… if you wanted to enter using this way you needed to pass by all these guards… and this was the reason this was the most difficult way to gain access to the base.

The guards saw the lift was empty and they were immediately spooked. In a blink of an eye, they rushed towards the lift… both I and Nemuri were able to move out of the way easily… the guards immediately started to bark orders. We waited for a few seconds and the doors opened and several guards rushed in with assault rifles… I looked at the guns, yeah they kind of seem familiar. Glowing blue guns… yeah, Hydra. I knew that HYDRA was growing inside SHIELD like cancer but I don't think Alexander Pierce provided these guns.

As soon as the guards passed by us we sneaked inside before the door could close once again. After finally entering the main base I decided to think about the only person that used this technology after Red Skull was dealt with and that person was Wolfgang von Strucker or better known as Baron Strucker. I won't put it past Sublime to have contact with Baron Strucker. Looks like my decision to allow Sublime to get away was the best. Sublime could lead me to Strucker… I have tried to find Strucker when I flared satellite lenses in the direction of Sokovia but I didn't find anything.

I don't know if Baron Strucker had made up his base in Sokovia in the year 2002 or not but he might have made some kind of technology to hide his base from satellite surveillance. I decided to use the guy's memories and decided to directly head towards Sublime's office… both I and Nemuri decided to ignore everything else.

"What the hell are these?" Nemuri suddenly grabbed my arm and pointed towards a huge workshop. I slightly frowned when I saw what these guys were working on… this thing shouldn't be here, it's was too early… I mean way too early. There is no way that they were able to get Raven's DNA or Rogue's DNA, so the hell did they even make this shit now?? In front of my eyes, the scientists were working on a Sentinel Mk X, or was it something else completely…??

Is this something related to Weapon Plus program? It could be… but whatever it was I needed to check it before I vaporized this whole facility. "Maybe, some kind of Sentinel?" I answered Nemuri in an unsure tone. Leaving that behind we decided to directly head towards the Sublime's office…

We quietly arrived in front of the room and Nemuri cast Imperius on a guard and decided to use him to get the door open. The guard happily opened the door and we heard and cold voice from inside the office.

"What do you want?" It almost sounded like a growl. The guard walked inside and started to strip down… of course, trust Nemuri to do something like this. I immediately recognized Sublime and we both slipped into the room.

Sublime was completely baffled by the guard "What the hell are you doing, you fool??!!" Sublime thundered in rage. I slowly approached Sublime from the right side while Nemuri approached him from the left. We immediately started to cast spells on Sublime, spells to identify any foreign material or organism in the body. This was a spell commonly used by the healers to fix cuts and infections.

Sublime's nape glowed blue… Sublime was immediately alerted by the sudden light but before he could react I marked the cell with the marking spell. As soon as the mark landed I felt it appear inside my mind… that means no matter what he does, he would never be able to hide from me anymore…
