200. Red Skull’s Plan. (A New Milestone Reached)

The man's body suddenly twitched, like a reflexive muscle spasm. The immense strength caused the chains binding his body to collide, producing a faint clinking sound. In such a quiet environment, however, the sound seemed exceptionally noticeable.

In truth, the man had almost forgotten how long he had been imprisoned. Initially, he could rely on his stable biological clock and count the days based on his heartbeat. But after Red Skull administered anesthesia for a while, he completely lost track of time. Even so, the man could still roughly estimate that he had been held there for at least a year.Rêađ latest cha/p/ters on no/v/e/l(b)in(.)c/o/m

It had been a long time since the man had any contact with the outside world. In fact, after Red Skull threw him into this place, aside from the initial interrogations, the villains seemed to have forgotten his existence, leaving only cold robots behind. The man's last memory of the outside world remained in the scenes of his battle against those mutated lizardmen.

He still remembered slaughtering the lizardmen, although those memories were somewhat hazy. The lizardmen had incredibly strong regenerative abilities, and their combat power was vastly different from that of ordinary people. Their brutal attacks could put any fully armed squad in a difficult situation. These were not monsters that ordinary people could face, but fortunately, the man was no ordinary person.

His combat skills, inherited from urban legends and Gotham tales, had not rusted. Facing these monsters that preyed on the poor, all he could do was fight, relentlessly fight until the lizardmen lay dead in the mud, never to rise again.

Unfortunately, his heroic deeds did not earn the respect of the people. Or rather, the terror that the lizardmen instilled in the civilians had long numbed into a nightmare deep within their hearts.

For the meager rewards promised by Connors, those civilians did not hesitate to betray the hero who had been helping them. They poisoned the man's food and even released the gas that Connors had provided. Though the man reacted quickly, escaping the moment he realized what had happened, he found himself outmatched when Connors led a group of lizardmen to surround him.

After detonating countless explosives to escape, the man, dragging his battered body, fled into the wilderness.

He had long since realized that this world was abnormal. Even a man who had experienced countless life-and-death situations and witnessed the darkest sides of humanity could easily see that this world had become a hopeless, twisted civilization. He didn't know where he was supposed to go, or even what he should do next.

At first, he thought he had traveled through time and arrived at a different timeline in his own universe. But as he delved deeper, he discovered that this world was entirely different from the beautiful world he remembered. None of the people he knew existed here.

Instead, there were familiar yet strange superheroes, but those so-called "heroes" had already perished. They had been defeated, dying on the day criminals took control of the world.

The man's eyes filled with blood as cold killing intent radiated from him. He stared at Red Skull, his gaze unwavering.

"I like the look in your eyes. How about it? Say something useful, and I might give you a quick death, or find a way to reunite you with your hero friends sooner."

Red Skull spoke slowly and methodically. After a moment, seeing no reaction from the man, Red Skull shook his head slightly, his eyes full of disappointment.

"Not talking? No problem.

Actually, when I saw this video, you became useless to me. You aren't the only one who came to this universe. The remaining value in you has vanished. I could chop you up and feed you to the dogs, turning you into fertilizer for my garden.

But... I'm more merciful than that.

I won't do that. On the contrary, you are now the final piece of my plan. And this is the only thing you can do for me."

As he spoke, Red Skull pressed himself against the railing, his face full of a sinister smile as he continued.

"Tomorrow, I will order a nationwide announcement, publicly proclaiming your trial, with the execution date set for ten days from now. At that time, I hope this bait will help me catch some big fish."
