Marvel's Superman

Chapter 5 - 005 Stark Industries World Expo

By the time Luke and Bucky came out of Roger's house, it was already dusk with the sun setting on the horizon.

The afterglow of the setting sun illuminated New York, coating the surrounding skyscrapers with a layer of golden glow. ??

"In the future, you may have to look after yourself. Luke and I can't always be there every time." Bucky patted Rogers' shoulders, while the little man felt awkward and remained silent.

The scars on his face were not severe, and after some cleaning, only faint bruises remained.

The three of them put on some good clothes and headed to the Stark Industries' World Expo.

On the way, Rogers frowned while saying, "I also want to join the 107th Infantry Division like you. You know my father was also once part of it." He was still unwilling to stay behind.

Due to the war propaganda, many youngsters were eager to join the army at this time. They wanted to step onto the battlefield and win some honor medals.

Rogers and Bucky are among them.

Compared to Bucky, who had more than average physique, Rogers is thin, weighed less than a hundred pounds, and had a mild asthma case.

So even if he were allowed to join the army, he would have to run for several kilometers, ending up exhausted and panting for breath. This can even lead to death due to his weak body.

His physique prevented him from joining the army even if Rogers changed his address and falsified his identity every time he went to the conscription station to look for chances to join the military.

His medical evaluation always turned out to be 4F - the worst score.

Luke, who was walking behind, with his hands in his pockets, smiled as he said, "There will always be more opportunities."

He was thinking about whether to find a way to get the super soldier serum or not.

His regular workout and exercise over the years had promoted the progress bar to 99% and was only one step away from being unlocked.

Intuition told Luke that he needed a solid external boost to get the progress bar to 100%

At present, the easiest and most-likely-to-work thing for him was the super soldier serum.

As a transmigrator who roughly understood the direction of the plot, Luke knew that tonight was going to be a turning point in the life of Steve Rogers.

This little man was going to encounter Dr. Abraham Erskine, a German scientist who had sought refuge in the Allies and was the super soldier serum's inventor.

He was moved by Steve Roger's heartfelt words and strong will and gave him the opportunity to join the army.

Later at the military base, Rogers was selected to be the receiver of the super soldier serum.

'Should I take it or not?' Luke, who was walking behind, was still undecided about this.

If he could grow stronger silently, he would not have such thoughts, and in no way was he going to join the army.

After all, the battlefield was full of bullets and constant danger.

Even Captain America and the Winter Soldier were not entirely safe.

However, the delay in receiving his plot armor gave Luke a headache.

There was really no other option; he had to take this gamble.

As Luke was distracted, he unknowingly followed Rogers and Bucky to the bar on the corner.

Many people were present at the bar, ordering beers and snacks, chatting non-stop, waiting for the start of the World Expo by the Stark Industries.

Rogers still looked a little sullen and hadn't yet dispelled the idea of ??joining the army.

Bucky didn't notice it. He was already enthusiastic about defeating the Germans and bringing victory for the Allies.

"Let's go. I know some hot chicks!"

After looking at the time, Bucky and Rogers left the bar.

The streets outside were pitch black, and only the World Expo venue was brightly lit, giving it a great look.

At this time, World War II was in full swing,

Like European countries, the United States was also on the cusp. To save energy, the military had implemented intense electricity control policies.

Like neon lights and colorful billboards, they were restricted at night.

Every night, the city will occasionally cut off electricity to prioritize and ensure the power supply to the military bases and government agencies.

Even New York is no exception.

However, tonight because of the Stark Industries' World Expo, the military significantly relaxed the restrictions. Otherwise, New Yorkers wouldn't see such a brightly lit scene.

"It's quite lively." Bucky smiled as they entered the venue.
