Eternal life?
Getting rid of the fragile flesh and gaining immortality!
Luke paused, his eyes flashing.
It is no wonder that Dr. Zola later chose to upload his consciousness to computer storage and became a ghostly being in a digitized lifeform.
So, there was an agenda!
Think of the 200, 000 feet long database in the basement that is Dr. Zola's 'body' nearly a century later.
"Honestly, as a scientist, you shouldn't believe in such false promises. Eternal life, such a fool's fantasy."
The Major General laughed scornfully and didn't believe this.
Any religion gives a false layer of hope that only looks beautiful.
For example, the soul enters the kingdom of heaven and receives the illumination of the holy light.
Or a river full of milk and honey, seventy-two beautiful virgin maidens.
Hydra is no exception.
"Immortality? Who has ever lived forever?"
Luke smiled and asked in return.
If he had to say the possible existence of immortals on Earth, it was probably himself.
Luke clearly remembered Superman's independent story, in which the other person lived until the universe died and then started a new cycle again.
There were many similar examples.
For example, in 'DC One Million,' Superman stayed in the sun for 1,500 years and became Golden Superman.
And in 'Of Tomorrow,' Superman visited the earth 5 billion years later to witness the end's coming.
Time and life for a Kryptonian who continues to grow and constantly breakthrough, maybe a series of numbers, no big deal.
If he could visualize it, Luke thought his head would be throbbing with +1 every second.
"At that time, I was blind, enthusiastic about the Third Reich's great plan to conquer Europe, and I firmly believed in Hydra."
Dr. Zola took a sip of red wine to hide his embarrassment.
Any mortal has had the beautiful fantasy of immortality. Compared to power and money, an endless and long life is worth the madness.

"Believe me; the legendary Inhuman God won't give you what you want in return."
Luke shrugged his shoulders and poked at Dr. Zola's beautiful dream.
The Inhumans are only experimental products of the Kree and are still far from being true 'gods.'
As for immortality, a complete lie!
This is something that even their creator couldn't achieve!
As one of the three great empires, the Kree people imitated the gods and used the gene fragments of primitive human beings to carry out bioengineering experiments, creating a group of powerful fighters.
This is where the Inhumans came from!
The so-called Inhuman God is the first successful experiment.
'There are so many smart people in Hydra; why would they believe such a poor lie?'
Luke couldn't help wondering.
In theory, schemers should remain skeptical of everything.
"We have a ... plan."
Dr. Zola hesitated. If he continued, he would reveal the organization's secrets.
"Project Distant Star, right?"
Luke answered casually.
It was as if he dropped a bombshell.
Dr. Zola choked and tried to hide his shock.
'You even know this?'
'Has Hydra been infiltrated by S.H.I.E.L.D?'
'There is a mole in the top ranks!'
'Who could it be?'
'Baron Strucker?'
'Madame Viper?'
'Whitehall, who is responsible for welcoming back the Inhuman God?'
A series of names flashed through his mind, but he couldn't be sure.
Whichever one it is, it would be a huge blow to Hydra!
They have always been known for their ability to spy undercover and infiltrate the enemy's intelligence resources, but now, someone quietly put a spy in their side.
With this in mind, Dr. Zola was sweating like a pig.
Luke looked down; the other party's crazy 'brain gymnastics' look really made him want to laugh.
"Was I wrong?"
He continued to ask.
"No, no."
Dr. Zola shook his head hard and continued, "The Inhuman God, he was exiled to a distant planet."

"Although we can't be sure of the exact location; To welcome him back to Earth, we were able to send items through a portal in regular intervals. Sometimes it's a living person; sometimes it's some animal."
"What is certain is that God is still alive."
"Thousands of years have passed since the Mayan period, and he is still alive! Therefore, many people firmly believe that the Inhuman God could live forever and grant the ability to his most faithful followers."
Luke listened and curled his lips, thinking, 'I could also live until the sun died out, or the Big Bang.'
He would recommend that all Hydra members should change their faith and set up a sect to worship Superman.
"Well, let's go back to the original topic."
The rhythmic tapping of the Major General's fingers on the table created a kind of psychological pressure on Dr. Zola.
"Believe me, Doctor. I can create the perfect Hydra and lead you to a better future."
"I can help you achieve all the great things that Red Skull couldn't achieve and couldn't do. A large Hydra empire, a tightly knit commonwealth of human lives, a center of power that rules the world."
Luke was like the devil who tricked mortals into trading their souls.
Dr. Zola's face turned red. He was quite emotional.
'Weaving Logic' has completely assaulted him, and his mindset and logic have taken on Luke's intent.
"What's the cost?"
Dr. Zola restrained his inner desire.
"There is a common saying in the East; To eliminate external disputes, we must eliminate internal problems."
Luke narrowed his eyes and smiled gently, "Before ruling the world; we should concentrate Hydra's power in one place."
"I'm going to talk to Hydra's leaders, like Baron Strucker and Madame Viper, to discuss cooperation."
"Hydra doesn't have to have so many leaders, right?"
A basin of cold water instantly extinguished Dr. Zola's passion.
He looked up at Luke and said with a trembling voice, "Major General Sir, are you going to be the only leader of Hydra?"
"What's wrong with that? It's like a business. I brought S.H.I.E.L.D. into Hydra and should be elected as the largest shareholder and the CEO."
Luke looked puzzled and asked, "Do you have a better candidate than me? S.H.I.E.L.D is above the Pentagon's intelligence agency. Does this gift not carry enough weight?"
Dr. Zola was speechless, and his logic was in another mess.
Hydra has more than one leader, like Red Skull.
Like the hidden Baron Strucker.
Madam Viper is active in Japan.
Whitehall in Southeast Asia.
And so on...
There are nine people in all.
Even Red Skull, who had the Third Reich at his disposal, wasn't the only Hydra leader -- at best, he was a spokesperson on the table.
As a newcomer, Luke's demands were a bit too much and completely outside the realm of acceptable negotiation.
If the other side can S.H.I.E.L.D, as Hydra's incubation site, becoming one of the central figures is no problem.
As for the only leader, obviously impossible!
"If, as Major General said, would Hydra remain the same?"
Dr. Zola smiled bitterly.
"I'm afraid that S.H.I.E.L.D. will just swallow it up!"
Luke thought seriously for a few seconds and continued with his forced logic, "No organization can remain the same. Only by boldly embracing change can we be reborn."
"As for the question of who is the lead between Hydra and S.H.I.E.L.D., I don't think it's necessary to make such a clear distinction."
"Why don't we just call it 'Aegis Shield'? I don't mind being the first Director."

Leaves of Terranthir
DISCONTINUED - I won't be writing more of this fiction. Check out the latest post for a worlbuilding summary / final thoughts. Leaves of Terranthir is a gamelit blend of ARPG, action, fantasy, and slice of life. It's inspired in part by some of my favourite games, borrowing in themes, sense of exploration, and aesthetics from the Soulsborne and soulslike genre, mixed heavily with arpg itemization from Diablo/PoE style games. While many may remember their Soulslike experiences as nothing more than suffering, I personally loved the sense of progression, to prevail over challenges and monsters that seemed impossible to defeat at first. If any of that seems interesting to you, do check out the first chapter and let me know what you think. Cheers, and thanks for reading. Cover by Baconstrap.
