Chapter 115: The Kidnapped Doctor Strange, Only HodeCan Contend With Thanos!
When Tony Stark saw Ghost-Spider appear, he couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief.
Even wearing the armor, falling from such a high altitude, Rhodes definitely wouldn't be able to handle it.
Fortunately, Ghost-Spider had appeared at this moment.
It had to be said, this completely exceeded his expectations.
"Mr. Stark, I saw a donut in the sky and knew there must be danger, but I didn't expect there to be an ugly-looking octopus here!"
Gwen Stacy landed gracefully, chattering on and on.
Just now, when she saw the behemoth appear in the sky, she realized that something bad was happening.
So she rushed over here immediately, but this happened to be just in time.
"You came just in time!"
Tony was just about to say thank you when he saw a car flying rapidly from the distance: "Look behind you!"
Gwen looked behind her rapidly, and saw a car flying directly toward her.
In that instant, she could only hold out her hands, wanting to stop it, but she was still sent flying by the impact.
This was clearly the car thrown by Ebony Maw after breaking free from the Spider Web.
Watching Ghost-Spider preparing to climb up, Ebony Mawwaved his right hand with an angry expression.
The building debris from a nearby building smashed fiercely toward Ghost-Spider.
Bang!
"Damn it, this thing is really heavy!"
But fortunately, at this moment, Tony blocked in front of Ghost-Spider.
The heavy building debris left two deep footprints on the ground where Tony barely managed to stop it.
He couldn't help but think to himself that that thing was simply a monster.
To think he could manipulate such a large piece of debris with such ease.
He took a deep breath and tossed the debris aside with a backhand motion.
But just then, a massive figure came rushing toward him at high speed.
With every step it took, the footprints left behind were clearly visible!
"Is this big guy crazy?!"
Seeing the impending collision, Tony gritted his teeth and blocked with his hands in front of himself.
The next second, Black Dwarf slammed violently into Tony.
Bang!
Tony felt as if he had been hit by a high-speed train.
He was sent flying backward instantly, crashing hard into a nearby grocery store.
Then, he flew straight through the wall, the impact even sending Tony all the way to the next block.
Black Dwarf did not stop; with his arms shielding his face, he broke through the wall and arrived at the next block.
He lunged at Tony like a terrifying ancient beast.
"Fuck, is this thing on stimulants?!"
Tony felt intense pain throughout his body. Just as he climbed to his feet, he saw the massive figure pouncing on him again.
His right hand suddenly conjured a shield to block in front of him.
He saw Black Dwarf's giant axe continuously hacking at his shield.
Sparks flew everywhere as the Vibranium shield was struck.
At this moment, Tony had no way to stop it.
Every time he raised the shield, it was smashed down hard by Black Dwarf.
He could even see the manic, excited expression on Black Dwarf's face.
"Damn big guy! I'm not some curvy beauty!"
Tony gritted his teeth, his left hand suddenly left the ground, and a beam of light shot from his palm, blasting Black Dwarf right in the face.
The sudden attack caused Black Dwarf to instinctively release one hand from the axe handle to cover his face.
The next second, Black Dwarf suddenly felt cold steel wrapping around his waist.
Then, a powerful thrust pushed him rapidly toward a nearby building.
Tony's thrusters were operating at maximum power.
The black and gold armor used Black Dwarf as a shield, crashing straight through four walls and bursting out at an angle.
The terrifying force made the entire building seem slightly shaky and unstable.
"Gotta buy another building!"
Tony couldn't help but curse inwardly.
However, he didn't stop his actions at all. As his thrusters changed direction, he pushed Black Dwarf straight up into the high sky.
They traced a graceful arc, smashing through several corners of the building before shooting straight into the clouds.
At this moment, Black Dwarf finally regained his senses and yanked hard on Tony with his right hand.
Tony, who had been shooting straight into the sky, was pulled off course and crashed into the first floor of a high-rise building.
The next second, a roar from Black Dwarf echoed from inside.
Black Dwarf grabbed Tony and threw him out of the building, then leaped down himself, grabbing Tony tightly as they plummeted downward.
At this critical moment, blue light erupted from Tony's armor, and several small missiles detonated directly between the two of them.
Just before hitting the ground, he narrowly escaped Black Dwarf's control and crashed into a nearby building.
Rumble!!!
Although Black Dwarf had fallen from dozens of stories high, he just shook his head and stood up.
He then rushed toward Tony inside the building.
"Damn it..."
Stephen watched the battle in the distance, his expression growing increasingly serious.
Although he knew this opponent would be difficult to handle, this was simply too strong.
He had keenly observed just now that Black Dwarf hadn't taken much damage at all.
It could be said that Tony was currently being beaten one-sidedly.
"Hand over the Time Stone!"
Ebony Maw looked at Stephen, who was not far away, with indifference.
"Were you sent by Thanos?!"
Stephen immediately realized that the opponent had come for the Infinity Stones!
Ebony Maw didn't speak; he slowly raised his hands, and countless steel bars, like spirit snakes, rushed rapidly toward Stephen.
Relying on the Cloak of Levitation, Stephen dodged the attacks in mid-air while controlling the Crimson Bands of Cyttorak to lash out at Ebony Maw.
The Crimson Bands of Cyttorak shot rapidly from his hands, binding Ebony Maw's right hand in the blink of an eye.
"Troublesome guy!"
Ebony Maw stumbled, then swept his left hand across the chains, and black energy actually snapped the Crimson Bands of Cyttorak!
"What kind of Sorcery is this! It can even snap the Crimson Bands of Cyttorak!"
Stephen's expression changed drastically; this was the first time his Crimson Bands of Cyttorak had failed.
The next second, he suddenly noticed the ground beneath Ebony Maw churning, rapidly carrying Ebony Maw toward him.
Just as he tried to leave, two steel bars shot out from the ground, binding his feet.
The next second, Ebony Maw grabbed the eye of agamottofrom a distance and pulled hard.
Suddenly, the eye of agamotto erupted with a beam of light, actually interrupting his casting!
"You cast Sorcery on this?"
Ebony Maw frowned. He never expected that Sorcery had been applied to the eye of agamotto.
"This is just an insignificant little spell."
Stephen sneered, simultaneously manifesting the Sword of Vishanti, and slashed the steel bars binding his feet: "The eye of agamotto is protected by the Vishanti; no one can shake it except the Sorcerer Supreme!"
"Since you refuse to hand it over, then go to hell!"
Ebony Maw's face became ferocious. He pulled his hands, and countless steel bars grew wildly on both sides like vines.
They reached out rapidly toward Stephen, clearly intending to capture him directly.
"Hah!"
While dodging and weaving in the air, Stephen pushed his hands forward, and a dazzling bolt of lightning instantly burst from his palms.
Like a silver dragon, it rushed rapidly toward Ebony Maw.
In the blink of an eye, it had already reached Ebony Maw.
Ebony Maw pulled with his right hand, and a massive concrete slab instantly crashed into the silver dragon.
At the same time, he retreated rapidly. By this time, the silver dragon had already pierced through the concrete slab and slammed hard into the previous position.
In an instant, the flying concrete fragments actually cut Ebony Maw's cheek.
"Damn you! I guarantee I will make you wish you were dead!"
Ebony Maw's rage reached its peak at this moment.
As Thanos's subordinate, he absolutely must obtain the Space Stone!
Ebony Maw spread his hands wide, then pulled hard.
The walls on both sides of the building cracked one after another, smashing toward Stephen, who was flying above.
The terrifying force, combined with pressure, smashed rapidly toward Stephen in the air.
Facing the ferocious attack, Stephen extended his left hand and drew a circle in the air with his right.
A Dimensional Portal opened instantly, letting one of the walls being smashed over pass right through.
At the same time, the other end opened directly above Ebony Maw's head!
Ebony Maw's eyes widened; he pulled hard toward the ground, and countless amounts of soil appeared out of thin air, blocking his head.
He managed to block the wall slab, but due to the sheer force, some dust still splattered onto Ebony Maw.
Seeing this, Ebony Maw was completely enraged; everything around him was trembling constantly.
He had never expected that he would be made to look so disheveled by such a little cockroach.
All the surrounding buildings emitted terrifying cracking sounds, and countless steel bars surged out like spikes.
If one looked up, all the buildings above seemed to have turned into a steel jungle.
These steel bars grew and spread rapidly; in the blink of an eye, they had directly surrounded Stephen.
"Don't even think about taking the eye of agamotto!"
Stephen gritted his teeth and manifested the Sword of Vishanti, but it was impossible to hack through so many steel bars.
In the blink of an eye, Stephen was bound tightly by the countless steel bars.
Meanwhile, Ghost-Spider had recovered; she leaped up, and several strands of Spider Web flew rapidly toward Ebony Maw.
But Ebony Maw was in a state of rage, and the Spider Webwas intercepted in mid-air.
The next second, a pillar made of soil erupted, knocking Gwen flying into the building next door.
"Hand over the Space Stone!"
Ebony Maw rose into the air, looking at Stephen in front of him with an indifferent expression as he spoke.
"Bullshit, I will absolutely not... give it to you."
Following Stephen's refusal, the steel bars wrapped around him tightened even more.
Ebony Maw didn't continue to press him; he used the steel bars to suffocate Stephen until he passed out.
--- 0 Asking for flowers --- 0
At the same time, he used a concrete slab to carry Stephenas he flew away rapidly in another direction.
"Stephen!"
Wong's expression changed drastically, and he quickly formed hand seals.
The Winds of Watoomb condensed rapidly on the ground and swept toward Ebony Maw.
However, for this ferocious attack, Ebony Maw simply pulled with his hands, and the terrifying gale was actually ripped apart.
Ebony Maw had no intention of continuing to tangle with Wong.
Just as he was preparing to leave, Wong suddenly pushed his hands out, and the surrounding environment suddenly began to shatter continuously.
But before the spell could be cast, he was directly hit by a giant rock controlled by Ebony Maw.
At this critical moment, Wong didn't bother to continue attacking, but instead manifested a light shield to block himself.
However, this gave Rhodes, who was slumped on the ground, a chance; he fired a Rocket, which slammed hard into the concrete slab.
This massive explosion caused Ebony Maw's Sorcery to falter for a moment, and in that instant, the Cloak of Levitation seized the opportunity, wrapped itself around Stephen, and flew away rapidly.
This sudden turn of events stunned Ebony Maw.
He had never expected that the red cloak on Stephenactually had self-awareness.
But seeing this, he could only chase after them rapidly.
Meanwhile, Tony and Black Dwarf were locked in a fierce battle.
The surrounding blocks had become as if they had undergone a missile attack because of the two of them fighting.
Black Dwarf grabbed Tony by the throat and dragged him across the wall.
Sparks flew everywhere, and the wall was left with a terrifying deep gouge.
At this moment, Tony didn't even have the strength to speak.
He felt that this guy was simply a Hulk; not only was he immensely strong, but he could also wield weapons.
He fired his right Repulsor Ray repeatedly at Black Dwarf's chest, finally blasting him away.
He had no time to check on Stephen's situation now.
Moreover, the armor was severely damaged; it was fortunate that he had dodged the swing of Black Dwarf's axe.
Otherwise, he would be done for by now!
Tony watched as the knocked-back Black Dwarf quickly climbed to his feet, and he felt his spirits sink.
[Armor damage has reached 30%!]
Seeing the prompt, Tony couldn't care about anything else.
Several pieces of armor behind him quickly dispersed.
These pieces of armor erupted with blue light.
Boom!
The next second, a massive beam of light shot violently toward Black Dwarf.
Facing the menacing laser cannon, Black Dwarf's expression tightened.
A resolute look appeared on his face as he forcibly charged through the laser beam.
"That is exactly why I hate monsters like this!"
Tony's expression was pale; he really hadn't expected this guy to be so thick-skinned and durable.
You have to know that this laser cannon could even blast straight through a building!
By now, Black Dwarf had already charged in front of Tonyand kicked him down.
At the same time, he swung his giant axe down violently toward Hode's head.
Bang!
In the nick of time.
A white figure instantly appeared in front of Tony.
Then, she caught the falling giant axe with both hands!
Under the mask, her delicate face instantly flushed red.
Just a moment ago, she had been knocked into the adjacent block and happened to see Tony being beaten one-sidedly.
That was why she rushed over immediately, but the strength of this big guy truly far exceeded her expectations.
"Hey!"
"Watch out behind you!"
Just then, Wong gritted his teeth and shouted.
Gwen clearly saw a light portal appear below out of the corner of her eye.
She performed a backflip and narrowly dodged it.
Wong instantly conjured a Dimensional Portal beneath Black Dwarf, sending him to the North Pole.
Sensing the weightlessness, Black Dwarf reacted instantly; he gathered his strength for a leap, intending to jump back through the Dimensional Portal.
But just as his right hand reached through the Dimensional Portal, it instantly closed.
Black Dwarf only managed to reach his hand through, and his arm was instantly severed!
As the heavy arm fell to the ground, everyone finally let out a sigh of relief.
"Where is the trickster?"
Tony relaxed and noticed that one person was missing.
"Over there."
Gwen turned her head to look and pointed into the distance with an urgent voice.
They saw that Stephen had already been taken back to that donut-shaped landing ship by Ebony Maw.
"Damn it."
Tony immediately felt that things were bad.
"They are here for the Infinity Stones. I heard that Thanosis collecting the Infinity Stones."
Wong said with a grave expression.
After all, the intelligence they had been able to gather was far too little.
But this was definitely not a good thing!
"Hode can resolve this matter."
Gwen said with a grave tone.
After all, if Hode were here, it definitely wouldn't be this much trouble.
"We can't wait for Hode; he's probably still wining and dining in Asgard."
Tony said as he took off immediately, flying toward the landing ship in the sky.
He also instructed Wong to go find Steve.
"Wait for me!"
Seeing this, Gwen quickly followed.
Chapter 116: The Avengers are in a predicament, the completely damaged Iron Man armor!
At this moment. Inside the Avengers Compound.
"Damn it, Tony went to chase the spaceship!"
Steve paced back and forth anxiously, holding the report Tony had sent back.
Although they wanted to stop him, there simply wasn't enough time!
Now, they didn't even know what to do.
"Have you contacted Wanda?"
Sam looked at Natasha on the side with an urgent tone.
If Wanda were here, perhaps there would be a way.
"No, our communication equipment has no way of sending a signal to Asgard!"
Natasha shook her head helplessly; if they could have contacted her, they would have already done so.
It could be said that they were currently completely helpless.
"We can't just sit here and wait, can we!"
Sam gritted his teeth and said with an ugly expression.
By now, Tony and the others should have already boarded that damn donut.
And even if they wanted to catch up, there was no way.
They didn't even know what the situation was like right now.
After all, that damn donut had already flown out of Earth.
Hum~
Just as everyone was discussing anxiously, a portal opened directly in the center of the office.
Wong and Rhodes were seen walking out of it, looking disheveled and covered in dust.
"What exactly is going on?"
Seeing the two of them come out, Steve hurried forward to ask.
After all, they were the first to arrive at the scene, and only they would know what the situation actually was.
Although they had received Tony's message, the content was far too little.
"The ones who appeared this time are Thanos's troops!"
Wong clenched his fists and explained roughly what had happened in a grave voice.
When everyone heard these words, the air became incredibly heavy at that moment.
"You mean this guy called Thanos wants to take the Infinity Stones?"
Sam frowned, asking in a puzzled tone.
"Yes!"
Wong nodded, "705u.com-53 Reading Club" and continued, "We must destroy or protect the Infinity Stonesnow!"
Although they didn't know Thanos's goal, one thing was certain: once Thanos obtained all the Infinity Stones, no one knew what would happen.
Therefore, they had to collect the Infinity Stones before that happened!
Only in this way could they avoid them being snatched by Thanos.
You have to know that this time, even before Thanosarrived, things had already turned out like this; if Thanoscame, they would be no match for him at all.
"Let's call Vision over first!"
Rhodes opened the helmet on his face, wiping the blood from his face as he spoke.
He knew very well how serious the consequences of this matter would be.
And they could tell that this was merely the enemy's vanguard.
In other words, once the rest of them came, it would be unimaginable.
But even so, they had to prioritize destroying the stones.
Natasha hesitated for a moment, but eventually called Vision over.
Soon, Vision landed directly on the balcony and walked in.
"What is the current situation?"
Vision asked about the matter the moment he entered.
He had also learned that Tony had already followed onto the spaceship.
"Vision, I have a very serious matter to discuss with you."
Wong stepped out first and said in a heavy tone: "I need to remove the Infinity Stone from your head!"
Hearing this, Vision couldn't help but be stunned: "Remove the Infinity Stone from my head?"
"Yes, we need to prevent the stone from being taken by Thanos!"
Wong nodded without hesitation; once it could be removed, they could then consider whether to destroy it!
Only by destroying the Infinity Stones could they ensure that Thanos's goal would not be achieved.
Now Stephen had been taken away, and although they didn't know the current status of the eye of agamotto.
But now they had to take action in advance; they absolutely could not let Thanos take the Infinity Stonesaway.
"No! I do not agree!"
Hearing this, Steve immediately stood in front of Vision.
Vision was their friend, and they absolutely could not risk their friend's life.
Captain, do you know what we are about to face?"
Wong glared at Steve and roared, "We are facing an attack from the tyrant of the Universe!"
"But what can we do? Does destroying it mean he won't come?"
Steve firmly stood in Wong's way; he did not believe that destroying it would stop him from coming.
Furthermore, how to destroy it is a problem in itself; we absolutely cannot make such a hasty decision.
"As long as it is destroyed, his goal will be disrupted, so this is our only chance!"
Wong was very clear that Thanos's current goal is the Infinity Stones, but if there were no Infinity Stones, he wouldn't bother with Earth.
This is the only way to truly protect Earth.
"Then what about Vision's life?! Have you not considered Vision?"
Steve gritted his teeth, so hard that they were grinding.
He absolutely would not allow Vision to be harmed because of this.
Besides, no one knows if Vision will disappear after the Infinity Stones are removed.
It is because of this reason that we absolutely cannot take such a risk.
"If the technique is good and we are careful, he might not be harmed!"
Wong took a deep breath, his eyes fixed on Vision not far away.
They couldn't care about that much; if sacrificing one person could protect Earth, he would be very willing.
Although Tony and the others have followed, there is no way to know the result.
Besides, even if we don't know the current situation, we must decide on a plan.
Bang!
A loud noise.
The entire Avengers Compound shook violently.
Everyone instantly looked outside.
A deep crater had been blasted into the courtyard outside the Avengers Compound.
Following that was a buzzing sound, as if a huge engine was spinning above their heads.
[Warning! Intruders detected!]
[Currently above the Base!]
Friday's voice echoed in the office.
Everyone ran toward the balcony.
The moment they looked up, the expressions on their faces became incredibly grave.
By the time they reached the balcony, Friday had already activated the defense systems.
More than a dozen anti-aircraft guns rose rapidly from various parts of the Base.
Dense ammunition formed more than a dozen arcs, firing directly at the circular landing ship in the sky.
The emergency missile silos also launched upward, aiming directly at the circular landing ship above.
But just as they were about to approach the circular landing ship, a light blue barrier appeared around it.
The moment the missiles touched the barrier, a terrifying burst of Fire erupted.
The debris falling from the sky made everyone instinctively cover their eyes with their hands.
"They are here!"
Wong's hands formed circles, and he spoke in a grave voice.
Suddenly, a beam of light shot out from the circular landing ship.
This beam of light shone directly onto the ground.
The moment the beam of light disappeared, the enemies appeared in everyone's line of sight.
Two tall figures walked out holding weapons, followed by a large group of deformed Beasts.
"They don't look very friendly, but they look much better than that squid guy."
Rhodes, who walked out last, spread his hands and complained helplessly.
He had specifically gone back to change into a new suit of armor.
After all, his armor had been damaged in various places during the previous battle.
"Sorry, this is official territory, outsiders are not allowed to enter."
Steve leaped down from the second floor, jumped onto the lawn, raised his shield, and looked at these enemies with a grave expression.
"Earthling, hand over the Mind Stone."
Corvus Glaive waved the spear-like weapon in his hand and slowly stated his purpose: "We will leave once we have the stone."
"It seems you don't intend to leave."
Steve hunched his body slightly, his face full of vigilance.
Since the other party had come with ill intent, he had no choice but to fight.
Barton took down the longbow from his back, the bowstring half-drawn, ready to fire at any moment.
Natasha slowly moved to a position near cover, while taking out a laser gun produced by Stark Industries.
The others were also ready, having prepared their weapons.
Since the enemies had already appeared, they could only decide what to do after driving them away.
"Bring the Infinity Stones back to me!"
Corvus Glaive raised his spear and gave an order.
A large group of Outriders rushed out from behind; they were creatures modified by Thanos, walking on four legs, looking like wolves but larger, with mouths full of fangs and sharp Talons on their limbs.
The Outriders ran rapidly across the lawn; they looked like they were everywhere, which was incredibly terrifying.
In just a few seconds, they had charged over a hundred meters!
"Rhodes!"
Steve shouted and stepped back a few paces: "Rocket!"
"Copy that, Captain!"
Rows of Rockets popped out from the back of Rhodes's armor and blasted toward the army of Outriders.
With a sharp sound, all the Rockets were launched at that moment.
The Rockets flew rapidly toward the area where the Outriders were clustered.
Boom!
With the dense explosions, countless Outriders, mixed with dirt, were blasted directly into the air.
Looking at it, it was like countless fireworks blooming on the ground.
The ground was scorched black and extremely hot.
Smoke filled the sky.
"The new big baby missiles are really awesome!"
Rhodes looked at these weapons with excitement.
He had just learned some combat experience and, without a word, used the strongest missiles.
It had to be said that this was much more powerful than he had imagined.
And because of the support of the artificial intelligence, there was no need to even control the missiles.
These missiles would accurately fly to different locations.
But these Outriders still did not retreat and were still rushing toward them rapidly.
"Damn it!"
Corvus Glaive looked at the corpses on the ground, his face gloomy.
He raised his glaive and, with a roar, threw it directly at Rhodes.
Bang!!!
The glaive flew like a cannonball, carrying terrifying power, making the air explode with sound.
And the tip of the glaive was even emitting a faint light.
It was like a meteor, and in an instant, it arrived in front of Rhodes!
"Fuck!!!"
Rhodes's pupils contracted rapidly; this speed was just too fast...
In this instant, he could only shift his body as much as possible.
Although he had tried his best to dodge, the glaive was as fast as lightning and hit him directly in the chest.
His whole body was thrown backward uncontrollably, slamming hard against the wall.
He slid down the wall directly to the ground.
"Rhodes."
Steve's expression was ugly; he ran quickly toward Rhodes, intending to check on his condition.
Whoosh!!!
A vigorous figure appeared in front of him, blocking his way.
Following that was a spear slash.
Steve raised his shield at this critical moment.
Hum!
With the collision, sparks splattered everywhere.
Even Steve was shaken back a few steps by this aggressive blow.
"Your opponent is me!"
A graceful figure appeared in front of him.
This was clearly Proxima Midnight, and her face carried a faint smile.
"Get out of my way!"
Steve threw his shield violently, but Proxima Midnight just held her trident-like glaive horizontally, directly blocking Steve's attack.
"It seems your strength is quite good!"
Proxima Midnight sneered and swung the glaive in her hand, smashing it fiercely toward Steve.
This aggressive blow was so powerful that one could even hear the air cracking.
Steve rolled on the ground, and while retrieving his shield, he suddenly raised his right hand to block.
Bang!
This full-force blow even smashed Steve's body down a few inches.
Steve was not afraid of Proxima Midnight, but he was very worried about Rhodes's condition.
As the other party swung her glaive, he could only jerk his head to the side.
This strike hit the wall next to him.
Boom!
The solid wall was actually smashed with a huge gap by this glaive!
Just as Steve and Proxima Midnight were entangled in a fight, Corvus Glaive also rushed toward the group.
"Fuck, take them down!"
Barton charged toward Corvus Glaive, his hands drawing his bow with lightning speed.
Several explosive arrows were fired at Corvus Glaive, but he managed to dodge every single one with just a few nimble movements!
"This guy is a freak!"
Barton couldn't help but curse under his breath; his archery was exceptionally skilled.
Yet, when he fired just now, not a single shot had landed.
Just as he gritted his teeth and raised his bow, he caught sight of Outriders pouncing from the side out of the corner of his eye.
"These guys are so annoying!"
Barton had no choice but to roll away quickly to dodge.
The ferocious Outriders pounced repeatedly.
Barton's expression grew increasingly grim!
These creatures seemed endless; he had just finished off a few when even more Outriders rushed toward him.
"You guys are really annoying!"
Barton rolled backward abruptly and then leaped up.
He snatched three explosive arrows from his quiver and fired them simultaneously, hitting Outriders in three different directions.
Boom!!!
Explosions erupted in all three directions.
As the explosive arrows detonated, a patch of the surrounding Outriders was instantly cleared.
However, other Outriders continued to pounce toward him relentlessly.
Meanwhile...
Using his high-altitude advantage to avoid the Outriders, Falcon Sam strafed Corvus Glaive continuously with his 3.0 machine guns.
Hum!!!
Corvus Glaive raised his hand, and the Glaive lodged in Rhodes' chest suddenly flew back into his grasp.
He held the Glaive high as golden light gathered at its tip.
With a low hum, a brilliant beam of light shot from the tip, repeatedly targeting Sam high in the sky.
Seeing the ray-like beam, Sam could only perform rapid aerial rolls to evade it.
"Hey! Over here!"
Rhodes, sitting in the corner, gritted his teeth and climbed to his feet with a shout.
It was lucky for him that the weapon had only pierced a few centimeters deep.
It had also narrowly missed his heart, otherwise, he would have been dead for sure.
He raised his hand, and two missiles suddenly popped out from under his wrist, roaring toward Corvus Glaive.
Boom!!!
The two missiles exploded directly on Corvus Glaive!
"Good job!"
Sam clenched his fist and shouted in excitement.
So these enemies weren't invincible after all!
"Is he finally dead for good this time?"
Rhodes let out a long breath, but as he tried to stand up with support, the expression on his face suddenly became grave.
The War Armor's display showed that life signs were still being scanned.
Amidst the dust and mist, Corvus Glaive was surrounded by purple light, which had blocked most of the damage.
Nevertheless, he was covered in wounds and scars.
"You're courting death!"
Corvus Glaive's furious voice echoed through the air as he suddenly charged at Rhodes.
He moved like a cannonball, slamming violently into Rhodes.
Rhodes was sent flying, hurtling through the air.
In the next second...
Corvus Glaive followed closely behind, swinging his Glaivein a vicious slash.
Bang!!!
Rhodes was struck by the slash and sent flying once more.
A thirty-centimeter crack was carved directly into the chest of his incredibly sturdy War Armor!
[Your War Armor's damage level has reached forty percent!]
[The chest plate is essentially non-functional!]
...
Chapter 117: The Mad Overlord of the Universe Thanos, Eliminate Fifty Percent of Life in the Universe!
Bang!
Rhodes was hit by the heavy blow and embedded directly into the ground like a projectile.
A gash was sliced into his chest by the sharp Glaive.
He gritted his teeth, trying to crawl up, but the violent impact made every bone in his body feel as though it were shattered.
After landing the hit, Corvus Glaive did not stop; the Glaivein his hand spun continuously.
Then, descending from the sky, he put all his strength into the Glaive and lunged toward the prone Rhodes.
His extreme speed made the air feel like a barrier, flowing rapidly along the lines of his body.
"Fuck, this monster is just..."
Rhodes knew very well that he had no way to dodge this strike.
But before he died, he gritted his teeth and controlled the Rockets on his shoulders to deploy.
Even if he were to die, he would take this damned monster down with him.
As Corvus Glaive drew closer, his gaze became increasingly determined.
Hum!
At that critical moment, a shield suddenly flew in from the side.
The shield slammed hard into Corvus Glaive's side ribs, sending him flying.
"Rhodes, are you okay?"
Steve quickly moved to Rhodes' side and knelt down.
"I'm not dead yet!"
Rhodes lay on the ground, gritting his teeth as he spoke with a tremor.
However, for the time being, it would be difficult for him to stand up and fight again.
"That's good. Leave the rest to me!"
Steve picked up the shield, held it in front of him, and looked at Corvus Glaive: "I can do this all day!"
As for Proxima Midnight, she was already occupied by Barton and the others; his target was Corvus Glaive.
"Foolish Earthling, such power can never hope to rival us!"
Corvus Glaive climbed up from the ground, forced to admit that the previous blow had cracked his ribs.
However, this kind of injury had no effect on him; instead, it only caused his fighting spirit to soar.
The Glaive in his hand emitted a faint, eerie glow as he suddenly charged toward Steve.
Steve was not to be outdone, and the two collided at extreme speed.
Hum!
Steve's muscles bulged, and the veins on his arms could be seen popping out, pulsing across the surface of his body.
This massive impact made him look like a rhino that had been brought to a sudden halt.
Corvus Glaive swung his Glaive in a fierce horizontal slash, the sound of the air being sliced whistling through the wind.
But Steve didn't dodge; instead, he braced his shield firmly against his side.
From that powerful slash, he was actually knocked back several meters.
"His strength is so great. How is this even possible!"
Steve's gaze was solemn as he couldn't help but curse inwardly.
Although he had blocked the slash with his shield, the vibration had left his arm numb.
But before he could react, Corvus Glaive was already in front of him.
Facing these rapid slashes, Steve had no opportunity to strike back.
Moreover, Corvus Glaive was not only immensely strong but also exceptionally fast.
There were simply no openings to exploit, and every slash forced Steve to retreat repeatedly.
What's worse, Steve knew very well that he was currently no match for this monster.
It could even be said that all he could do was stall!
Yes!
Just stall and wait for his teammates to deal with the other enemies before coming to help him.
"Foolish. Do you think constant defense will save you? I want to see who runs out of strength first!"
Corvus Glaive taunted with a cold tone while swinging his Glaive.
His Glaive was specially crafted; every slash erupted with immense power.
With the infusion of energy, even if he didn't land a direct hit on Steve, Steve would still find it difficult to withstand.
Steve was sent flying once again by the force of the slash.
However, Steve also noticed that Corvus Glaive's condition wasn't perfect.
Judging by his side and the earlier explosion, his strength was also beginning to wane.
But even so, they were still the ones at a disadvantage.
Those Outriders seemed endless, and with Rhodes now unable to fight...
They had already suffered a loss in combat strength, making it harder and harder to hold on.
"You're about to reach your limit too, aren't you!"
Steve gritted his teeth, flipped back onto his feet, and lunged toward Corvus Glaive.
His muscles surged, appearing even slightly larger.
No matter what, he couldn't give up; he needed to help his teammates ease the pressure.
If he failed, his teammates wouldn't be able to withstand the onslaught.
However, the situation for the others was currently no better.
Wong unleashed the Eldritch Sword of Vishanti, rapidly hacking through the Outriders.
Blood soaked his clothes, and he was already starting to pant heavily.
"Come on! You damned monsters!"
Wong sliced a pouncing monster in half with a single strike.
He charged forward, slaughtering his way through the Outriders.
Even when an Outrider scratched him, he only frowned slightly.
As for Proxima Midnight, she was pinned down by Natasha and Barton.
They didn't get close to Proxima Midnight at all, instead constantly taking cover behind obstacles.
At the same time, they used firearms and bows to launch continuous ranged attacks at Proxima Midnight.
But Proxima Midnight's speed was simply too fast; even with their non-stop attacks, they couldn't land a scratch on her.
Meanwhile, Sam was continuously circling in the air, killing any monsters that drew near Rhodes.
The battlefield became incredibly tense, with everyone locked in a fierce, deadlock struggle.
Boom!
Just then, a beam of golden light descended from the sky, sweeping fiercely toward Corvus Glaive in the distance.
Steve, who was locked in combat, immediately ducked and rolled, and the golden beam slammed directly into Corvus Glaive.
With just that single strike, Corvus Glaive was swept off his feet and sent flying by the golden light.
"The Mind Stone!"
Corvus Glaive scrambled up from the ground and looked toward the source of the golden light.
When he saw the Mind Stone on Vision's forehead, his expression turned ecstatic and savage.
He couldn't wait to seize the Mind Stone and present it to the supreme Thanos.
Looking down from above, Vision stared intently at Corvus Glaive not far away.
"I can feel your desire for the stone, and I know everything about you!"
"To think you intend to sacrifice half of all life to exchange for a so-called future!"
"That is an utterly foolish desire!"
Vision's voice was incredibly cold.
The reason these people were frantically collecting the Infinity Stones was solely to allow Thanos to achieve this desire.
To him, they were nothing but a pack of lunatics!
"What?!"
The members of the Avengers who were in the midst of battle were shocked to hear this news.
They had never imagined that Thanos's plan would be so insanely cruel.
They had thought Thanos was doing this for dominion, but this was no longer about rule.
Instead, he wanted to use this method to slaughter the other half of innocent lives.
"These guys are absolutely insane, actually making that their plan!"
Barton couldn't help but curse out loud. If Vision hadn't appeared, they would never have guessed that the enemy's plan was so malicious.
Besides, the enemy was clearly not just making empty threats.
They had already put their words into action.
"We absolutely cannot let these bastards pull off this plan!"
Natasha gritted her teeth and snarled.
This was completely unfair to the other half of life!
"Hahaha! For the great plan, this minor sacrifice is nothing!"
Corvus Glaive spun his glaive and laughed aloud.
With a look of absolute entitlement on his face, he felt it was merely half the lives in the Universe.
For the sake of the future, everything was worth it.
Besides, how could there be no sacrifice on the path of progress? To be sacrificed for Thanos...
...in his eyes, that was their honor.
"You have completely lost your minds!"
Vision frowned slightly, his voice turning solemn.
This was clearly nothing more than satisfying their own selfish desires!
"Reason? If we can help Lord Thanos accomplish his mission, we have no need for such things!"
A cold smirk played on Corvus Glaive's lips as he continued, "Besides, you couldn't possibly stop us anyway!"
After all, no matter how powerful the enemy, they were never a match for Lord Thanos.
Many races had tried to resist their rule before, but in the end, they all vanished from the Universe.
If humanity insisted on going down this path, he wouldn't mind wiping out everyone on Earth once they secured the stone.
Besides, this Planet looked quite nice; they could breed and multiply here in the future.
"You have completely lost yourselves. I will never compromise!"
Vision's eyes burned with fury as he swooped down, charging at Corvus Glaive.
Reaching Corvus Glaive, he channeled power into his right fist and punched him, sending him flying.
Vision didn't halt his assault; he immediately pursued the airborne Corvus Glaive.
"Do you really think you can defeat me?"
Even as he flew backward, Corvus Glaive swung his glaive fiercely at Vision.
The rapidly spinning glaive seemed capable of tearing through space itself, arriving before Vision in the blink of an eye.
Facing this menacing strike, Vision caught it with both hands and slammed Corvus Glaive down toward the ground.
Boom!
Vision dragged Corvus Glaive along, leaving a terrifying trench gouged into the ground.
"Let's wrap this up quickly and go help Vision!"
Seeing this, Steve's eyes flashed with excitement.
It was clear that Vision could hold his own against Corvus Glaive for some time.
As long as they could deal with the remaining Proxima Midnight, they could wipe these enemies out entirely.
Looking at the fired-up group, Proxima Midnight's eyes flashed with disdain.
Seeing Steve rapidly lunging at her, a blue light suddenly burst from the tip of her glaive.
Caught off guard mid-charge, Steve was hit by the blue energy blast and sent flying backward.
Facing the combined assault of Natasha and Barton, she spun her glaive rapidly and kicked Barton, sending him flying.
At the same time, her glaive slashed toward Natasha. At this critical juncture, Natasha drew the nano-sword from her waist.
She blocked the strike, but even so, the gap in their strength was too vast.
With just one hit, she was knocked backward.
Proxima Midnight had no intention of wasting more time with them. After forcing them back, she leapt up and charged toward Vision and Corvus Glaive.
Their mission wasn't to slaughter everyone, but to secure the Mind Stone.
Meanwhile, locked in combat with Corvus Glaive, Visionhad no way to free a hand to block Proxima Midnight's incoming slash.
"Proxima! Kill him!"
Corvus Glaive naturally noticed this. His lips curled up, a gleam flashing in his eyes.
The glaive in Vision's grip suddenly fired a blue beam, blasting the holding Vision up into the air.
The airborne Vision flew right into the path of the menacing Proxima Midnight.
If this strike landed, it would surely impale Vision.
At that moment, Vision tried to twist his body, but the force sending him flying was too great to control.
"Die, you fool!"
Proxima Midnight smirked, her face twisting into a savage grin.
She could already picture Vision being impaled by her blade.
"No! Vision!"
Steve scrambled up and ran desperately toward Vision.
His eyes were bloodshot with desperation.
If Vision was defeated, they would not only lose their teammate...
...but the Mind Stone would also be snatched away by these monsters!
Although they could barely hold their own against Corvus Glaive and Proxima Midnight...
...if the enemy truly wanted to leave, they would have absolutely no way to stop them!
Barton scrambled up and drew an arrow from his quiver, but it was an explosive arrow.
His other arrows were depleted; if he used this one, Visionwould be caught in the blast as well.
Everyone's expression turned incredibly grim.
"Don't forget about me!"
Just then, a dark shadow streaked across the sky.
Sam swooped down at Proxima Midnight, tackling her hard around the waist.
He slammed her heavily into the ground.
Vision let out a long sigh of relief; just a moment ago, he had thought it was the end for him.
Proxima Midnight kicked Sam away, sending him flying.
She flipped back up and glared at everyone with a look of pure rage.
Bending her knees slightly, the glaive in her hand glowed with a brilliant blue light.
In the next second, a blue laser beam swept outward.
The beam was aimed directly at Natasha and the others.
"Since you want to stand in my way, I'll finish you off first!"
The blue laser sliced right through the Outriders in its path.
"She doesn't even care about the lives of her own kind!"
Natasha's eyes widened; this situation had far exceeded her expectations.
Moreover, the laser was incredibly fast, reaching her side in the blink of an eye.
Just then, Steve threw himself in front of Natasha, using his shield to block the oncoming strike.
Even so, the sheer energy packed into the blue laser forced Steve backward.
Barton didn't waste this opportunity; he loosed the explosive arrow he had already nocked, aiming straight for Proxima Midnight.
As the explosive arrow flew toward her, Proxima Midnightwas forced to cut off the laser and leap into the air, narrowly trying to dodge the arrow.
"Think you can dodge it?!"
Barton grinned, a look of triumph flashing in his eyes.
In the next second, the explosive arrow—which should have narrowly missed her—detonated right beside Proxima Midnight.
He had calculated this precisely to catch Proxima Midnightoff guard.
Proxima Midnight was blasted out of the air and slammed heavily onto the ground.
Meanwhile, Vision's condition was deteriorating rapidly.
Corvus Glaive seized the opportunity to relentlessly press his attack on Vision.
Steve noticed this and was about to go help.
Only to see Proxima Midnight, who had been blasted away, slowly rising to her feet.
"You... are simply asking for death!"
Proxima Midnight's eyes grew furious, and a streak of blood swept up by the explosion now marked her cheek.
Roar!!!
However, at this moment, roars echoed from the landing ship.
More Outriders surged toward them like a black tide.
"Are these beasts cockroaches?!"
Rhodes's scalp went numb: "Just how many of these things did they breed?!"
The Outriders seemed endless, as if they could never be fully wiped out.
...
Chapter 118: Only Hode Can Save the Day, It's Time to Get Serious!
Puff, puff, puff...
The Outriders swarmed in like a tide.
The densely packed scene made Natasha's skin crawl.
At first glance, they really looked like a dense swarm of cockroaches.
Furthermore, these Outriders were incredibly fast, swarming forward like a black tide.
"Now I finally know why that guy named Thanos was so confident he could take the Infinity Stones!"
Barton gritted his teeth, the veins on his arms bulging.
These Outriders were not only extremely powerful in combat, but every single one of them was a warrior who did not fear death.
This made their expressions turn extremely grim.
"No, these guys are practically endless!"
Wong wiped the blood covering his eyes with his sleeve, his expression becoming extremely solemn.
This number was simply terrifying. Just a moment ago, they could barely spare some hands to deal with Corvus Glaiveand Proxima Midnight.
But now it was completely impossible. Because there were too many of them, he couldn't stop so many Outriders at all.
"I need help!"
Wong suddenly raised his right hand, and a Dimensional Portal instantly opened beside him.
A torrent of seawater gushed out, rapidly rushing toward the Outriders in front of him.
But this could only delay them for a short while.
"Let's go together!"
Steve also knew that relying solely on Wong and Sam, it was absolutely impossible to stop these Outriders.
Although he knew they had to protect Vision, if they let these things get past them, they would truly stand no chance of winning.
Taking the lead, he charged straight toward the terrifying Outriders.
As he drew closer to the Outriders, he violently threw the shield in his hand.
The shield drew an arc in the air, rapidly ricocheting after striking one of the Outriders.
In the blink of an eye, it ricocheted five times, knocking down five Outriders.
Steve leaped high into the air, caught the returning shield, and slammed it down hard from midair onto one of them.
Crack!
This strike directly crushed the head of the Outrider below.
Unidentified fluids splattered all over Steve.
But he did not halt his steps, casually striking and sending an Outrider charging from the side flying.
Facing the scene before him, Wong's hands crackled with electricity as the Bolts of Balthakk rapidly gathered in his palms.
As he swung his hands forward, countless bolts of lightning rippled across the ground, rushing toward the surrounding Outriders.
Zzzzt!!!
Everything around was illuminated by the electrical light; with just a single strike, he had eliminated over thirty Outriders.
Yet even having killed so many, it was still just a drop in the bucket.
These Outriders pounced toward the two of them without any fear of death.
And because they were extremely fast, they knocked Wong flying in an instant.
If he hadn't used the Crimson Bands of Ragadorr in the nick of time, this strike would have been enough to severely injure Wong.
The moment Wong was sent flying, the Eldritch Sword of Vishanti instantly materialized in his hand, and he slashed hard at the Outrider in front of him.
Because he had already dealt with so many Outridersearlier, this slash was no longer able to cleave one in half like before.
He could only barely split the Outrider's head open.
"Huff, huff, huff..."
Wong panted heavily, a look of despair on his face.
Under these circumstances, without reinforcement, it was absolutely impossible to deal with so many Outriders.
The only thing they could do was to barely hold back these disgusting, cockroach-like things.
Barton kept firing explosive arrows, but in the end, it didn't have much of an effect.
Just then, an Outrider lunged at him from the side.
He suddenly turned his head, violently sweeping his bow across the Outrider's head, sending it flying.
But before he could finish dealing with this one, another one lunged at him.
"Fuck!"
Although Barton had noticed the lunging Outrider, he simply didn't have enough time to deal with it.
Just then, the Outrider's head was suddenly pierced by a bullet, sliding to a stop near Barton's feet with a thud.
"Be careful!"
He looked back; it turned out to be a bullet fired by Rhodes.
Crimson blood seeped down Rhodes's chest, and he looked at Barton with a bitter smile.
It had to be said, Corvus Glaive had almost taken his life just now.
If it hadn't been for the armor's defensive protection, he would probably be dead by now.
"Are you okay?!"
Barton asked with a grim expression, piercing through an Outrider without even looking back.
"No problem. When it comes to these guys, I can still barely manage to handle them!"
Rhodes coughed twice, two gun barrels extending from both sides of his arms to rapidly fire at the Outriders.
Under the barrage of bullets, the Outriders were riddled with holes by the machine guns.
But even so, the other Outriders continued to throw themselves forward, one after another, lunging at them.
Looking down from above, everyone was struggling to move at this moment. If Steve hadn't been blocking the vast majority of the Outriders at the very front...
...these Outriders would have already rushed to the rear!
"Sam, can we get Tony's other armors out to fight with us?!"
Steve sent an Outrider flying with a punch and shouted toward the sky.
If he remembered correctly, these armors were all equipped with artificial intelligence.
Once they could come out to fight, it would greatly relieve their pressure!
"No, we don't have authorization for the other Mark armors; only Tony has the authority!"
Sam kept shooting at the Outriders below, shouting through gritted teeth.
He had already thought of that, but even Rhodes didn't have the authorization.
So now they could only rely on themselves to deal with these Outriders.
"Damn it, I'll definitely have to make Tony leave us authorization next time!"
Steve casually grabbed an Outrider, pinned it to the ground, and crushed its head with a powerful stomp.
They had now fallen into an extremely anxious and desperate situation.
And what worried him even more was Vision, not far away.
Although Vision was trading blows back and forth with Corvus Glaive...
...he could also see that Vision was definitely no match for Corvus Glaive.
If this continued, Vision would inevitably fall into a disadvantage.
And Natasha's situation at this moment was not any better.
Because Barton was gone, Proxima Midnight was frantically launching attacks at her.
If it weren't for her finer skills, she would probably have been finished off by Proxima Midnight long ago.
"I didn't expect an ugly monster like you to be so fond of me!"
Natasha forced Proxima Midnight to dodge with a backhand shot, mocking her through gritted teeth.
"You foolish woman, you don't actually think you're any match for me, do you?!"
Natasha's words made Proxima Midnight's attacks even more fierce; she considered herself a top beauty on her Planet!
Proxima Midnight suddenly swung horizontally, sending Natasha flying backward.
Natasha rolled on the ground, barely dodging Proxima Midnight's follow-up attack.
"You ugly old hag, you really hit fucking hard!"
Natasha couldn't help but curse; that slash just now had almost cut her kidney out.
In fact, the reason she did that was to draw Proxima Midnight's aggro.
After all, she was not suited for this kind of large-scale group battle.
But with this one, she could barely deal with her; even if she couldn't win, she could still stall for time by dodging.
"It seems you want me to focus my attention on you!"
Proxima Midnight noticed Natasha's gaze and instantly understood her intention.
"In that case, I will absolutely not let you have your way!"
Proxima Midnight had no intention of continuing to deal with Natasha.
After all, this person couldn't hurt her at all, yet her ability to flee was faster than a bug's.
In that case, she might as well focus her gaze directly on someone else.
Before Natasha could even speak, Proxima Midnightcharged violently toward Steve at the very front of the battlefield.
As long as she took care of Steve, the others would pose no threat at all.
"Damn it!"
Seeing this, Natasha was completely helpless, only able to watch Proxima Midnight leave.
At this moment, Steve was pushing upstream against the surging black tide.
Whoosh!
Just then, he suddenly heard a sharp sound of breaking air behind him.
He rolled on the ground while raising his shield in front of him.
Bang!
Following a loud bang, dirt splattered everywhere, and a deep crater was even left on the ground.
He looked closely—wasn't this precisely Proxima Midnight?!
"Bug, come play with me!"
The corner of Proxima Midnight's mouth curled up; she hadn't expected Steve to dodge her sneak attack.
In the next second, Proxima Midnight slashed her battle glaive down fiercely from above.
As she swung it, the blue light on the glaive flickered continuously.
Clearly, this strike was completely different from the previous one. Steve could even feel the abundant energy contained within it.
Instead of taking it head-on, he rolled on the ground.
Proxima Midnight's slash completely missed.
Bang!
With this slash, the ground instantly cracked, and the soil beneath was blasted in all directions under the pressure of the energy.
Seeing this, Steve panted slightly, his expression turning even more grim.
It seemed this opponent was playing for keeps, but his physical stamina had already begun to decline.
It was already quite a feat that he had managed to hold out until now.
He couldn't help but sigh inwardly; if Wanda were here, things would be completely different.
With Wanda's abilities, she would be like a tiger with wings on this massive battlefield!
"Distracted during battle? It seems you've lost your will to fight!"
Just then, the sharp glaive thrust violently toward him.
"Damn you!"
Steve gritted his teeth and raised his shield, only to be sent flying backward by the thrust.
He even knocked down over a dozen Outriders in the process.
Shaking his head, he leaped up and charged at Proxima Midnight with gritted teeth.
Even though he was already showing signs of exhaustion, he had no choice but to brace himself and press on!
If Proxima Midnight set her sights on his other teammates, they would definitely be no match for her.
Although Natasha had exchanged a few blows with Proxima Midnight earlier, she had only survived by relying on her agile reflexes to dodge.
But even so, she could only hold out for a few minutes at most.
Therefore, he had to keep Proxima Midnight occupied as his own opponent.
Buzz!
Proxima Midnight whipped her right hand, hurling her glaive toward Steve's head.
As it swung, an incredibly terrifying sonic boom could be heard.
Feeling the sheer terror of this strike, Steve didn't even dare to block it head-on.
He could only duck, feeling something whoosh right past the top of his head.
The massive sound made Steve's scalp tingle.
Because Steve dodged in time, Proxima Midnight had no time to pull back her strength.
This strike slammed heavily into a nearby Outrider.
Bang!
Splat!!!
Shattered armor plating and blood instantly erupted.
The Outrider was actually beaten into mincemeat.
Due to the immense force, an empty pocket was cleared in the surrounding area.
Whew...
Steve broke out in a cold sweat as he watched this. It had been so close.
If this blow had landed on his head, even with his enhanced body, he definitely wouldn't have survived it.
But before he could catch his breath, Proxima Midnightgritted her teeth and leaped into the air, unleashing terrifying strength as she smashed down toward Steve.
As Proxima Midnight leaped, an incredibly deep crater was left where she had just been standing.
"Fuck! This woman's combat ability is way too terrifying!"
Steve could only raise his shield at an angle above him.
With a loud crash, Steve was forced to his knees, kneeling on one leg.
Even his ankles sank deep into the soil from the heavy impact.
An ear-piercing screech echoed through the air from the collision.
"Language, Captain!"
Falcon Sam's teasing voice suddenly rang out in the earpiece.
Up in the sky, Falcon Sam suddenly dived down.
Carrying immense momentum, he slammed into Proxima Midnight, sending her flying.
However, learning from his previous experience, he didn't dare to grab Proxima Midnight and keep flying.
Proxima Midnight was knocked back several meters!
"Thanks."
Steve got to his feet.
"You had better pray..."
Proxima Midnight stood up, glaring at Falcon Sam through gritted teeth.
This was already the second time this guy had knocked her away.
If not for him, they would have already completed their mission to retrieve the Mind Stone!
But she had no way to deal with Falcon Sam; after all, he was constantly circling in the sky.
He was far too agile, and trying to catch him would waste too much time!
"It seems you haven't learned your lesson."
Falcon Sam deployed Redwing, which flew toward Proxima Midnight and fired a brilliant beam of light.
Wherever Redwing flew, the ground was sliced open by the bright red beam of light.
"You've got quite a few tricks up your sleeve!"
Proxima Midnight furrowed her brow and quickly dodged.
Redwing circled rapidly in the air.
It swept through the Outriders, leaving screams and flying flesh in its wake!
With just a single beam, several Outriders were sliced clean in half!
"You had this move and didn't use it sooner!"
"705u.com-53 Reading Club" Rhodes wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and couldn't help but complain.
Even if it only took out a few more of them, it would have relieved some of the pressure!
"Ah!"
Just then, however, a scream of pain came from Vision's direction.
Corvus Glaive had impaled Vision's shoulder with his glaive, pinning him ruthlessly to the ground.
"Finally dealt with!"
The corner of Corvus Glaive's mouth curled up, an excited expression appearing on his face.
He had to admit, Vision was much more troublesome than he had expected!
Seeing this, Proxima Midnight stopped tangling with Steveand the others.
She quickly rushed toward Corvus Glaive.
"Save him!"
Steve shouted upon seeing this and dashed toward Corvus Glaive.
"Farewell. Wait here for Death to claim you!"
Corvus Glaive sneered mockingly, having no intention of lingering with them.
With just a thought, a beam of light descended from the sky in the next second, taking Corvus Glaive and Visionaway.
Even Proxima Midnight departed with them.
"Damn it, they took Vision!"
Wong looked up at the sky, his expression turning exceptionally grim.
He had hoped to stop them, but he hadn't expected things to turn out like this at the critical moment.
This meant Thanos was now on the verge of gathering all the Infinity Stones!
Just thinking about it made his scalp tingle!
Standing below, everyone watched the landing ship above but was powerless to do anything, only able to watch as it broke through the atmosphere and departed.
"Hurry and prepare a quinjet, we have to pursue them!"
Steve looked solemnly at the black speck that was about to disappear in the sky.
"Yes."
Natasha quickly contacted S.H.I.E.L.D. to dispatch a quinjet.
"Have you still not contacted Hode and Wanda?"
Steve turned to look at Natasha.
"No."
Natasha shook her head helplessly. She had been trying to call them earlier, but there was no response.
"Sigh..."
Steve frowned deeply. Only Hode's presence could save the day now.
