Marvel’s Superman

Chapter 8 The Final Candidate of the Super Soldier

The next day, early morning.

Luke, who was appointed by the military, packed some simple luggage and took an excited Rogers to the special car to the Caspian training camp in New Jersey.

Before leaving, they met several important personnel of the Strategic Science Corps.

Take, for example, the serious-looking Colonel Phillips.

The developer of the Super Soldier Serum, Dr. Abraham Erskine.

Howard Stark of New York.

There is also Agent Carter, who keeps his cool expression as always.

and many more……

The Strategic Science Corps is a temporary agency specially established by the Allies to win the war.

It was personally approved by President Roosevelt and the heads of European countries.

The elites from various fields are gathered, and their main purpose is to fight against the Hydra of the Third Reich, an evil organization marked by the monster Hydra.

The secondary purpose is to implement the "Super Soldier" plan to end the war that has swept the world.

The current leader of Hydra is John Schmidt, nicknamed "Red Skull".

It is said that he was a confidant of Hitler.

Heinrich Hilem, who was the head of the secret police Gestapo, was no less powerful than Heinrich Hilem, who participated in the establishment of the SS.

"Actually, Red Skull is not necessarily the founder of Hydra..."

Luke thought, rocking from side to side, sitting in the back of the delivery truck.

He remembered mentioning in the comics that the origin of the orthodox Hydra was quite early enough to date back farther.

The Red Skull just used the name and changed the concept to make it a useful tool.

In this regard, he has some similarities with Adolf Hitler, who was once idolized by the Third Reich.

"Luke, do you think we'll run into Bucky?"

Rogers asked while holding his luggage.

Thinking of Bucky's surprised expression when he learned that he had joined the army and set foot on the battlefield, he couldn't help but start looking forward to the next meeting between the two.

"Bucky may have set foot on English soil by this time, fighting for his freedom."

Luke laughed. He could see why Rogers was obsessed with serving in the military.

A small man who has been teased and bullied for a long time because of his thin body.

There are often only two paths to the future.

Or, like Rogers, still maintain a positive attitude of optimism;

Either a cynical, self-enclosed negative psychology.

The former is rare, the latter many.

And this is probably why Steve Rogers became Captain America.

He is a man who is always on the right path.

Rogers is keen to serve in the military, not out of strong patriotic feelings - he is not the kind of character who is eager to exchange honor for military merit and dream of making a career.

This skinny little man is more likely to prove that he is no different from those strong guys.

"Luke, then you say, why did Howard Stark go to the Caspian training camp? Is he also a recruited soldier?"

Rogers asked curiously.

He didn't know anything about the "Super Soldier" program or the Strategic Science Corps.

I just thought that I went to the Caspian training camp to receive recruit training.

"Stark is different from us! He's a scientific advisor! It's a full-fledged senior officer!"

Luke shook his head.

As two recruits, how could they compare with Howard Stark.

The treatment of both parties is different!

Howard Stark was able to ride in a smooth and comfortable private car, chatting and laughing with a group of senior officers along the way.

In the evening, I might go out to spend the day and drink, and I will be happy and unrestrained.

He and Rogers, on the other hand, had to stay behind the transport truck, which was rocking like a bumpy ship.

"Get ready for recruit life, Rogers!"

Luke smiled meaningfully.

For a far from strong Rogers, recruit training was no easy task.

...

...

a week later.

"How are you, Rogers?"

Luke, who had finished the weight off-road, handed a towel to the skinny little man.

It was as if he had been pulled out of the water, and the camouflage outside was soaked with sweat.

His chest rose and fell violently, as if a bellows was being pulled, making a "huhu" sound.

Even the regular five-kilometer off-road is a daunting challenge for Rogers, who has poor physical fitness.

"No, it's fine! I just need to take a break... that's it!"

Luke looked at Rogers, who was speaking intermittently, for fear that he would suddenly faint.

To be able to hold on to the present, the thin and thin man with his waist bent in front of him is indeed very persevering.

Despite every day's training assignments, Rogers was the last to finish and the worst.

But in terms of effort, he is not inferior to others, or even surpassed.

"I feel so much better! Thank you, Luke!"

After taking a few breaths, Rogers looked up at his friend with a grateful smile.

If it weren't for Luke's help, his situation could have been worse.

For Rogers, Caspian training camp is no different from the streets of Brooklyn.

Relying on strong muscles, bullying existences weaker than themselves, such bastards can be found everywhere.

Luckily Luke stood up, otherwise Rogers would have been another victim of being beaten up by thugs in the corner.

"Assemble! Assembly!"

A sharp whistle sounded, and the recruits who had long developed conditioned reflexes trotted over and stood in neat queues.

Among them, some of them have experienced disobedience, or the end of the thorns.

The glamorous female officer with a British accent was not as weak as she looked.

In this regard, the recruit who received a punch, Gilmer Hodge has a lot to say - he still has a Band-Aid on the bridge of his nose.

What's more, high-intensity physical training every day is enough to release everyone's excess energy.

"After your observation over the past few days, who is the recruit with the best grades and the best performance?"

Standing not far away, looking at the group of recruits being lectured, Colonel Phillips asked.

"It's Luke Cavill."

Carter, who was holding the score sheet, raised his eyebrows.

She did not expect that the young man from Brooklyn.

Not only the marksmanship is amazing, but in other test items, the performance is also very good.

Shooting at targets, marching with weight, climbing barbed wire and other physical training.

Luke can easily take the first place and leave the second place far behind.

"I knew it! Erskine, as I said, Cavill is the most suitable person!"

Colonel Phillips clapped his hands and said.

He looked at the tall, strong Luke in the queue with admiration in his eyes.

The opponent perfectly matched the Colonel's definition and image of an excellent soldier.

"Wait! We still have time."

Dr. Erskine, who was standing beside him, replied.

His gaze did not stop at Luke, but at Rogers, who was particularly prominent in the queue.

If you say, super soldier to choose a strong big man.

Then, there is absolutely no need for Erskine to start this secret selection.

Just pick one out of the army.

In this world, there has never been a shortage of excellent soldiers who know how to obey orders and have strong muscles.

However, it is quite difficult to find a good person in the true sense, a "super soldier" who has strength but does not bully the weak.

Erskine knew that he didn't have any more time to choose patiently and dig carefully.

Therefore, he can only pin his hopes on Rogers.

That lanky little man has a rare quality that touches people's hearts!

"You asked me to investigate Rogers' background! Yes, he is indeed a... good guy! But so what? If the bureaucrats of the committee find out, the candidate for the super soldier is a skinny guy who can even run. What would they think, little breathless man?"

Colonel Phillips said dissatisfiedly.

In his view, war compares the strength of the two sides, not the character of the soldiers.

"The selection is not over, the time has not come! Colonel, let's wait patiently!"

Dr. Erskine is still the answer.

This time, though, his eyes shifted to Luke.
