The video playback stopped here, and many details indicated the timeline of this footage: after the Civil War.
It was clear that during the Civil War, Captain America, Bucky, and the others were trying to stop that "doctor."
Before that doctor, they needed to find five other super soldiers.
So they planned to get a fighter jet and leave, but Tony Stark and his men cornered them at the airport.
The Civil War footage ended when both sides erupted in full-scale combat, and the specific outcome was unknown to everyone.
But looking at the current footage, it was clear that Tony Stark and his team did not capture Bucky.
So Bucky appeared with Captain America in this secret base to stop that "doctor," but it seemed they were a step too late.
That "doctor" had already found the other five super soldiers.
But for some unknown reason, those five super soldiers were not taken away, nor were they even awakened.
"If it's any consolation, they died in their sleep."
On the screen, a voice suddenly echoed in the empty hall.
Captain America and his team immediately became alert, instinctively approaching the cryogenic pods to check, and found that it was indeed so.
All the people in those cryogenic pods had a bullet hole in their foreheads.
They had clearly been shot in the head.
"Do you really think I want more people like you?" the voice continued, "But I'm grateful to them, they brought you here!"
At this point, a light suddenly appeared in a dark part of the hall, revealing a face through the window of a safe bunker.
That person was none other than Colonel Zemo, the mastermind behind the Hero Civil War.
"It's him, Helmut Zemo!"
Everyone present immediately recognized Colonel Zemo's identity, as his full name had appeared in the options during the previous round of questions.
At that time, everyone knew nothing about this name,
But they kept it deeply in their hearts.
After the quiz, everyone undoubtedly investigated this name, and of course, many people were found, but this guy in front of them was among those on the list.
Afterward, everyone shared information, so they recognized Colonel Zemo at a glance.
Whoosh!
As soon as Colonel Zemo appeared, Captain America directly swung his shield and hurled it at him.
But the shield hit the wall and bounced back, without leaving even a trace on that wall.
"Don't bother, Captain," Colonel Zemo's voice calmly said, "The Soviets designed this place to withstand UR100 missiles."
"I bet I have even more powerful firepower!" Iron Man said with a dismissive look.
"I certainly believe you, Mr. Stark, you will undoubtedly achieve it in due course," Colonel Zemo's voice continued to drift, with a deeper meaning, "But then you wouldn't know why you came."
"You killed innocent people in Vienna just to lure us here?" Captain America walked right up to Colonel Zemo.
They stood opposite each other, separated by an iron window.
"For over a year, my mind has been filled with you, studying you, tracking you, but now that you stand here, I find a hint of green in your blue eyes. It's good to find flaws."
Colonel Zemo said, seemingly out of nowhere.
"You're from Sokovia." Captain America, however, realized something. "Is that why?"
Sokovia?
Everyone present immediately felt a stir in their hearts; this location was a very important one to them.
Avengers vs. Ultron.
And this Zemo, in everyone's intelligence, was a member of the Sokovian elite strike force.
It was highly likely that Colonel Zemo was involved in this matter.
"Sokovia was beyond saving even before you destroyed it, so, no, I'm here only for a promise."
Colonel Zemo said to Captain America with a serious expression.
Sokovia destroyed!
Everyone present couldn't help but be surprised. If Colonel Zemo wasn't exaggerating, then the battle in Sokovia must have been too tragic.
"Who did you lose?" Captain America realized something again and stared at Colonel Zemo, asking.
"I lost everyone!" Colonel Zemo said heavily, staring intently at Captain America, "You will too!"
After saying this, Colonel Zemo pressed a button, and a screen in front of Captain America began to play a video.
Bucky and Iron Man on the side gathered around, watching the footage on the screen, wondering what Colonel Zemo was up to.
"An empire overthrown by enemies can rise again, but an empire that crumbles from within is gone forever." Colonel Zemo looked at them and said meaningfully.
The people in front of the screen no longer paid attention to Colonel Zemo, but instead focused their attention on the video.
The fact that the other party went to such great lengths to show them this video clearly meant that the footage was anything but ordinary.
Everyone present also saw the footage, which was a black-and-white image of extremely poor quality, blurry to the extreme.
Given that everyone already knew the answer to the question in advance, and combining it with the very dated style of the video, everyone vaguely guessed.
This footage was probably the Winter Soldier killing Tony Stark's parents!
"I recognize this road, what is this?"
On the screen, although Iron Man didn't react immediately, he clearly had a bad premonition.
Crash!
The next moment, a car on the screen crashed violently into the roadside, completely deforming the entire vehicle.
If one were to just watch this short segment, it would indeed be a serious car accident.
But then, a man on a motorcycle appeared.
The man had long, flowing hair, and a gleaming silver metal arm that was so striking—it was none other than the Winter Soldier, Bucky!
The atmosphere in the room once again began to solidify, and Tony Stark's face unconsciously started to twitch; he couldn't maintain his composure at all.
At this moment, Howard crawled out of the car, prostrate on the ground, without even the strength to stand up.
After seeing the Winter Soldier appear, he pleaded with him, "Please, save my wife!"
The Winter Soldier, however, completely ignored Howard, simply grabbed Howard by the hair, and yanked him up.
"Sergeant Barnes!" Howard said, recognizing Bucky.
But the Winter Soldier was like a cold-blooded machine, completely ignoring Howard's pleas, he raised his metal fist and brutally punched Howard in the face twice.
Howard fell powerlessly to the ground, becoming a corpse.
Tony Stark abruptly closed his eyes, completely lacking the courage to watch this scene, his fists clenched tightly, his teeth gritted.
He was like a wild beast about to go mad.
The killing intent in his heart was completely undisguised.
The Winter Soldier must die!
At this moment, Tony Stark truly wished he could tear the Winter Soldier into a million pieces.
After killing Howard, the Winter Soldier dragged Howard's body and stuffed him into the driver's seat.
He then went around to the passenger side, reached in, choked Iron Man's mother, and strangled her to death.
Tony Stark watched, his eyes nearly bursting, his entire body trembling slightly, his teeth grinding audibly.
If it weren't for the quiz system freezing everything and preventing him from leaving the room, Tony Stark would have flown out to hunt down Bucky long ago.
Captain America also couldn't calm down for a long time; he could clearly feel Tony Stark's rage and killing intent, and he understood it as well.
But precisely because of this, Captain America was even more determined to stop Tony Stark, otherwise, Bucky might truly be killed.
On the screen.
After the Winter Soldier killed the Howards, he unhurriedly took out his gun and shot the camera that had captured the relevant footage.
The footage then became blurry.
Iron Man could no longer hold back and was about to rush over to kill the Winter Soldier, but he was pulled back by Captain America.
"Did you know about this?" Iron Man asked, staring intently at Captain America.
"I didn't know," Captain America hesitated for a moment, then replied in a deep voice.
"Don't lie to me, did you really know?!" Iron Man wasn't so easily fooled, and he shouted at Captain America in a low voice.
"Yes!" Captain America was silent for a moment, then admitted it.
Iron Man's body swayed, he felt immense heartache, as if he couldn't accept Captain America's betrayal of him.
Bang!
Immediately after, an enraged Iron Man punched Captain America to the ground, then charged towards the Winter Soldier.
He threw a fierce punch at the Winter Soldier.
The Winter Soldier, however, swung his metal arm, blocking Iron Man's punch with a clang.
The Hero Civil War officially erupted!
That's right, this was the real Civil War.
The previous battle at the German airport, both sides held back and fought with restraint, at most it could be considered a minor skirmish, and it wouldn't truly affect or shake the Avengers.
But this battle now was a true fight to the death!
A real war!
Seeing the few people fighting in a chaotic mess, Colonel Zemo did not linger on the scene, quietly turned around, and completely disappeared into the darkness.
The footage ended here.
But as for what would happen next, everyone could imagine it, even if they thought with their legs.
Captain America, the Winter Soldier, and Iron Man would undoubtedly engage in a desperate struggle.
"Rogers, did you know about this?"
Tony Stark's voice rang out, his eyes like an eagle's, staring intently at Captain America as he demanded in a deep voice.
"I only just found out after watching the video." Captain America met Tony Stark's sharp gaze and said frankly, without any guilt.
Captain America was telling the truth this time.
After all, during the period when the Winter Soldier was recovering, Captain America was basically busy dealing with digging out HYDRA moles, and Tony Stark was busy manufacturing his suits.
The two basically had no interaction.
As for Bucky, Tony Stark was an irrelevant person to Captain America, so Bucky hadn't told Captain America about this matter.
Unlike during the Civil War, when Tony Stark had already become an important comrade and friend to Captain America.
It could be seen that Captain America was not lying.
Moreover, upon learning that the answer was indeed the Winter Soldier, Captain America was as surprised as everyone else.
Tony Stark stared into Captain America's eyes for a moment, then chose to believe him.
"I'm going to kill Bucky, and Jesus himself can't save him, I said it!" Tony Stark then said heavily to Captain America.
"Stark, Captain, let's analyze the question," Hawkeye Barton quickly interjected when he sensed the atmosphere was off.
"Zemo, the soldier from the Sokovian elite strike force, he is the key to everything," Nick Fury said in a deep voice at this moment, addressing everyone.
It was clear that the great battle between Captain America and Iron Man was orchestrated by this guy.
The opponent had gone to great lengths to lure Captain America and Iron Man, all for the purpose of making them turn against each other and engage in a fierce battle.
"An empire that collapses from within will perish forever," this clearly referred to the Avengers.
The opponent must have known they couldn't defeat the Avengers, so they decided to use this method to dismantle and destroy the Avengers from within.
"A very clever fellow!" Loki couldn't help but nod with a look of approval.
Colonel Zemo's series of actions could be said to be very much in Loki's style, perfectly suiting his taste.
"But your reactions after watching this footage are so intense, as if that footage actually happened."
Loki then scanned the people present and asked, "But strangely, why did you act as if you didn't know what was happening in the footage before?"
"Could it be…" Loki said, and then, recalling everyone's earlier discussion about "the quiz system predicting the future" and so on.
An incredulous expression appeared on his face, "You actually believe that this footage is something that will happen in the future?"
Loki couldn't help but laugh.
How could such a thing be possible?
Are the people of Midgard all fools?
However, none of the people present paid any attention to Loki; they continued their discussion as if Loki didn't exist.
"Zemo said that Captain America destroyed Sokovia and that he lost everyone, so he must be a victim of that battle," Hawkeye Barton spoke again at this point.
"The Avengers fought in Sokovia to counter Ultron, and the war must have destroyed Sokovia."
"So Zemo, for revenge, spent over a year tracking and studying the Avengers, ultimately orchestrating this operation."
"And now, the Sokovia War hasn't happened at all; such things can be avoided."
