Early 2014, New York is still prosperous.

But beneath the undercurrents, a storm is brewing.

Inside Levi's training base, he stands alone before a holographic projection, his expression solemn.

Through his Timeline Observation Ability, he clearly sees what will happen in the coming months:

The truth of S.H.I.E.L.D. being infiltrated by Hydra is about to be exposed.

Project Insight—three Helicarriers, a one-time massacre of millions of potential threats.

The Winter Soldier, Bucky Barnes, will appear and become a key figure.

"The time has come," Levi murmured. "It's time for the Apprentices to participate in a real National Level crisis."

He waved his hand to close the projection and turned toward the training ground.

Inside the training ground, the three Apprentices were conducting combat drills.

Peter's Webbing wove a web in the air, Kate's arrows shot from tricky angles, and Kamala's Energy Shield constantly changed form.

The three's cooperation became more tacit, forming a complete tactical system.

"Stop," Levi's voice rang out.

The three immediately stopped and turned to look at their teacher.

"Teacher, how was our cooperation?" Peter asked expectantly.

"Not bad," Levi nodded, "but not enough."

He walked to the center and said seriously, "In two months, something big will happen in Washington."

The three's expressions stiffened. Every time the teacher said this, it heralded a major event.

"What big event?" Kate asked.

Levi slowly said, "S.H.I.E.L.D. has been infiltrated by Hydra."

"What?!" The three were shocked.

"No way?" Peter was incredulous. "Director Fury is so shrewd, how could..."

"Hydra has been lurking for seventy years," Levi said deeply. "Since the founding of S.H.I.E.L.D., they began to infiltrate. Now, Hydra controls most of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s power."

Kamala gasped, "Doesn't that mean many S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents are Hydra?"

"Exactly," Levi nodded. "And they are about to start a plan—Project Insight."

"Project Insight?" Kate frowned.

Levi waved his hand, and the holographic projection showed three massive Helicarriers: "Three flying fortresses equipped with satellite positioning systems that can lock onto millions of targets simultaneously and eliminate them instantly."

"Heavens..." Peter was shocked. "This is a massacre?"

"The targets are everyone who might threaten Hydra," Levi said. "Including all of us here, Tony Stark, Bruce Banner, and even some ordinary people who haven't become heroes yet."

"For example, a Surgeon named Stephen Strange."

Kate clenched her fist: "We have to stop them!"

"That's exactly what I wanted to say." Levi looked at the three Apprentices. "This mission is very dangerous. You will face Helicarriers, a large number of Hydra Agents, and even... a legendary assassin."

"What assassin?" Peter was curious.

"The Winter Soldier," Levi said slowly, "a brainwashed and modified super-soldier whose strength is not below Captain America's."

The three looked solemn. They knew how strong Captain America was; an enemy who could match him was definitely not simple.

"So, for the next two months," Levi said seriously, "you will undergo the strictest special training. This mission concerns the lives of millions; there is no room for error."

"Yes, Teacher!" the three responded in unison.

Levi nodded with satisfaction and began to arrange the training plan.

This time, Levi did not want Harry to participate. Out of selfishness and protection, the heir to Iron Man needed more safeguards.

However, Levi would prepare a real stage for him, which was Avengers 2; that was where he should truly display his strength.

For now, what Harry needed to do was get ready.

Levi dialed Harry's mobile number. After a short wait, Harry's youthful voice rang out.

"Teacher! Is there a new mission! I heard my Senior Brother and senior sister are going to fight, right?"

Levi smiled, "Your task is to study Basic Engineering and Mechanical Design well lately. In a few days, I'll bring you here."

"Okay, Teacher, mission guaranteed!"

Levi nodded, "Mhm, build a good foundation. There will be a stage for you in the future."

"Okay~"

A few hours later, at the training base.

"Peter, your Webbing range and strength are excellent," Levi said. "But this time you face Helicarriers and need to fight at high altitudes."

Peter nodded, "I understand, Teacher."

"From today on, your training focus is: high-altitude maneuverability, rapid movement, and large-scale crowd evacuation."

Levi took out a brand new Webbing launcher: "This is a new piece of equipment I forged using a mix of Asgardian Metal and Vibranium."

Peter took it, his eyes lighting up. The launcher was entirely silver, emitting a faint luster. It was half as light as the previous one but ten times stronger.

"Try it out," Levi said.

Peter pressed the button, and a silver strand of Webbing shot out, instantly piercing a steel plate thirty meters away.

"So strong!" Peter exclaimed.

"【Ding! Given Vibranium Asgardian Alloy Spider-Silk Launcher!】"},{
