Chapter 101: Sublimation, Iron Man's First Step to Becoming a God [Second Update, Please Subscribe]
Everyone could tell that the so-called response team might be the Avengers team.
But Nick Fury never thought that he would use the Avengers to fight on the front line. He originally just wanted to organize a team of superheroes to deal with supernatural forces such as werewolves and vampires.
But I didn't expect that we would have to fight against even alien invasions.
The key point is that the news mentioned here contains too much information.
"Jarvis, where is the nearest garrison to New York?" Tony Stark asked.
"According to the information, in addition to the National Guard, there is the 10th Mountain Division stationed in Fort Drum, New York, which is affiliated with the 18th Airborne Army!" Jarvis quickly gave the answer.
The New York that most people are familiar with is actually New York City, but above New York City, there is also New York State, which are basically two different concepts.
"How long will it take for this mountain division to arrive in New York City to reinforce?" Tony Stark asked.
"According to the results of the exercise, the first batch of airborne troops can arrive within an hour at the earliest, and the entire force can reach the city within three hours!" Jarvis replied.
"Tony, what do you mean?" Black Widow Natasha said with some understanding.
"What I mean is, if this news was broadcast live without any delay, the army might have just arrived, or at least the main force might have just arrived. In other words, the battle might have only started for an hour or two, and the situation was already so bad that nuclear bombs had to be used to prevent the aliens from further spreading the invasion." Tony Stark made a terrible inference.
Everyone gasped. Captain America Rogers was actually the only one here who had a military background, but the others were not completely ignorant of military combat.
Even though they were caught off guard, with the National Guard blocking the way and the Avengers fighting hard, the US military, known as the strongest on earth, was still defeated within one to two hours.
If we take into account that it takes time for aliens to move and spread out, we can easily imagine the situation on the battlefield. The strongest US military on the earth will collapse at the first touch. Only if any battle is defeated in one encounter can it spread so quickly.
It was such rapid changes on the battlefield that made the US government determined to use nuclear bombs, even if it meant sacrificing its own political life.
In the previous scene, although the members of the Avengers were in a mess, they were still able to fight back against these aliens and were not completely powerless to fight back. In particular, Tony Stark even crashed into a Chitauri Leviathan spaceship in one go.
This gave them an illusion that the people on Earth could fight the Chitauri, or at least hold their own.
But that is limited to the top combat forces among the Avengers, humans or non-humans. There are only a few such people on the entire earth.
A normal army would almost collapse at the first touch. The gap between the strength of the Earth and the Chitauri can be imagined.
As for the U.S. Army, at the current stage of the Blue Planet in 2008-09, it is almost invincible, if not invincible. After all, a certain big country next door in the East has not yet started a major outbreak, so it is at most about the same strength.
If even the U.S. Army performs like this, one can imagine what the result will be if other countries face the Chitauri. The big countries will be defeated in one blow, and those small countries are basically a joke.
On a blue planet where more than half of the countries have propellers, the combat power represented by those major countries is the peak combat power of the people on Earth.
Looking at it this way, it seems like humanity is about to be finished.
In an instant, it was as if a mountain pressed down on them.
It even made them breathless.
The more you know, the more you understand at this time how serious the future situation will be.
At this moment, the scene changed and came to the sky. Above the sky, a huge crack was across the air. A huge beam of light swept directly from above Tony Stark's Stark Industries Building, connecting to the huge space crack.
Obviously, countless Chitauri armies relied on the space cracks formed by this device and eventually came to this world.
Iron Man Tony Stark is carrying a nuclear bomb and is obviously going to be deployed here.
"So this kind of wormhole is used for space jumps?" Tony Stark narrowed his eyes. Generally speaking, space travel is nothing more than a superluminal spacecraft, or finding a space wormhole for jumping.
Both are difficult, and neither is something humans can accomplish, though it may not be achievable within a few hundred years.
But since the problem lies with this device, what does this mean?
This means that there are traitors on Earth, human spies.
This is not difficult to judge.
Even Dormammu, the Lord of the Dark Dimension, knows to keep a few traitors and followers on Earth, so it makes sense that the Chitauri have traitors lurking on Earth.
There's no way to even block this.
As far as he knew, there were many other races on Earth. Vampires and werewolves were considered native races, and there were many other aliens, but the Skrulls were the largest.
Although there is no absolute evidence of other aliens, SHIELD is not completely unaware.
Who knows how many small-scale aliens have infiltrated and are secretly training traitors.
There will definitely be a lot of people who can lead the alien queen.
From the bottom to the top, it's everywhere.
There are countless people in the upper echelons of the Hagui clan who are spies for the vampires and hope to become vampires one day and gain immortality.
These are what Tony Stark recently learned from S.H.I.E.L.D. It was really eye-opening. He felt like his worldview had collapsed and reorganized many times.
Although he felt that it might be difficult to completely find out who these people were, he still had to strengthen surveillance, especially the old white man, Dr. Silvig, who might be related to these people, or at least had some connection with them.
Let's monitor it first.
At this moment, in the picture, Iron Man Tony Stark was carrying a nuclear bomb. When it was about to hit the Stark Tower, he exerted force and rushed towards the direction of the space crack with the nuclear bomb at a right angle of 90 degrees.
When they saw Tony Stark succeed, countless people on the helicarrier cheered.
The people outside the screen had not yet breathed a sigh of relief, because what they saw at this moment was a dense and endless army of Chitauri waiting in line to come to support from the other side of the space crack.
After sending the nuclear bomb into the space crack, Tony Stark's armor's energy was completely exhausted, and his face showed a bit of despair and relief.
Jarvis' voice came into his ears.
"Sir, calling Miss Pepper failed!"
The iron armor lost all its energy and light and slid downwards.
But at the same time, the nuclear bomb finally hit the Chitauri mothership. The light of the nuclear bomb explosion instantly engulfed the Chitauri mothership.
Immediately, the Zetatian soldiers on Earth fell to the ground one after another, and the huge steel monster fell onto the building in an instant as if the power was cut off.
Iron Man also closed his eyes and fell down.
Meanwhile, the people waiting on Earth were still waiting for his return. In this situation, Captain America Rogers finally took responsibility and declared, "Shut it down."
He knew that now was the best opportunity. If he didn't take advantage of the teleportation channel on the mechanism, the consequences would be disastrous. The Chitauri would not have only one mothership, and this nuclear bomb would only destroy one such mothership.
Is this the only level of power an alien civilization capable of teleporting across the stars has?
At this time, Black Widow Natasha can only try her best to supply energy to this device.
At this time, the crack in the sky was gradually shrinking, and just when everyone was extremely depressed about losing Tony Stark, Tony Stark's iron armor just left the space crack under the pull of gravity at the last moment and fell to the earth.
Iron Man fell at an astonishing speed, and smiles appeared on everyone's faces. But before they could be happy for a while, they found that Iron Man, who fell from the sky, did not slow down at all, and fell directly like a meteorite.
"Oh my God!" Captain America exclaimed. If this continues, Iron Man will be crushed to death on the spot, and it will be useless even if he wears armor.
After all, it's too high. If you fall down, you will get bruises all over your body.
"He's not slowing down!"
Thor said as he turned the hammer in his hand, ready to fly up and catch the armor to save people.
Suddenly, there was a huge roar, and a tall figure flew into the air at lightning speed and hugged Tony Stark's iron armor.
It was none other than the Hulk.
His other hand was clinging to the tall building desperately, continuously reducing the impact force, and finally he crashed heavily to the ground while holding Iron Man.
Everyone quickly gathered around and took off Tony Stark's mask, but it seemed that Tony Stark was no longer breathing.
Everyone's face showed an extremely sad expression, but with the roar of the Hulk, Tony Stark woke up as if he had suddenly woken up from a nightmare.
"Oh my God, what happened? Don't tell me someone kissed me!" Tony Stark couldn't help but look at everyone and asked worriedly.
If that's really the case, he might as well just die. He is the great Iron Man Tony Stark, a playboy, a super genius, a world-class rich man, a super player. When has he ever suffered such injustice and loss?
