Chapter 75 Chicken Talisman
"Monitored 'Superhero Falcon', 'Rooster Talisman' has been unsealed, can be upgraded with villain points."
"Try to make Falcon generate negative emotions, more surprises await your exploration!"
Just now, there was an unexpected gain; Arthur's sixth Talisman was unsealed. He has now completed half of his goal of unsealing twelve Talismans!
"Rooster Talisman Lv1, allows the holder to fly. It is also effective on objects, but cannot affect objects that are too massive or too far away."
"Rooster Talisman Lv1, upgrading to Lv2 requires 10w villain points. It will greatly increase the distance and mass of objects that can be controlled. You can control objects within 20 meters and weighing under 3 tons."
The power of the Rooster Talisman can be enhanced through system upgrades. After upgrading, the distance and mass of objects the Rooster Talisman can control will continuously increase.
Furthermore, after the Rooster Talisman is upgraded to a certain level, it can also bring the following functions:
Lv3: The object can be a living being;
Lv7: Multiple objects can be controlled simultaneously;
Lv11: The Rabbit Talisman can be used to increase the movement speed of controlled objects, but the movement speed of controlled objects will not exceed the maximum speed of the Rabbit Talisman.
Lv12: You can control any object to move, regardless of its mass, and without spatial or distance limitations... After finishing all this, Arthur switched his consciousness to the clone influenced by kindness, and stopped the clone power of the Tiger Talisman. Now, the clone influenced by evil concepts is flying at high speed after turning invisible, preparing to merge with the clone influenced by kindness.
"What was I just doing? I actually destroyed a home that someone worked so hard to build! I killed several HYDRAAgents who were fighting for their ideals... I am truly despicable!" Arthur stared at his hands, full of regret, "And this system is getting more and more deceptive..."
However, the power of the Rooster Talisman is still very useful. Upgrading to Lv2 allows control of objects within 20 meters and weighing 3 tons, which is very cost-effective. Without a second thought, Arthur spent 10w villain points to upgrade the Rooster Talisman to Lv2.
Now, Arthur, who has obtained the equivalent of an "Magneto plus version" enhancement, also saw an update to his Talisman status:
"villain points: 0.9w;
Rabbit Talisman Lv11, cannot be upgraded;
Dragon Talisman Lv11, cannot be upgraded;
Rat Talisman Lv1, villain points required to upgrade to Lv11: 52.5w;
Snake Talisman Lv3, villain points required to upgrade to Lv11: 62w:
Tiger Talisman Lv2, villain points required to upgrade to Lv11: 103.5w;
Rooster Talisman Lv2, villain points required to upgrade to Lv11: 112.5w;
..."What were you just mumbling about?" Gwen said from behind Arthur.
Arthur turned around to see Gwen's undisguised joy... No student could smile during class, so it seemed she had already received news of the demon causing destruction outside.
Arthur knew that as long as he didn't expose himself, Gwen wouldn't associate him with the demon... What a pure, kind, and easily deceived girl! Arthur couldn't help but sigh. He had manipulated Gwen, the Spider-Woman, with just a small trick... Arthur felt a little soft-hearted. He looked at the joy in Gwen's eyes and slowly felt a sense of guilt.
"Hmm?" Gwen tilted her head and smiled at him.
"I said the teacher is too cruel, actually injecting mice with an unproven drug!"
"Ah?" Gwen was stunned. In her impression, Arthur was not a kind person.
"You're not thinking of using these experimental drugs for human trials, are you?" Gwen guessed boldly, "That's not allowed!"
"But mice are also living beings!" Arthur said seriously.
Gwen looked at Arthur with some suspicion. It was the first time she realized Arthur's acting was good enough for Hollywood... "It's right for you to think that way..."
...In the first-floor restroom, a young black man was sitting on the toilet, looking at a tweet about "National Security Department Rescues Captain America from Demon."
"Hehehe!" He chuckled strangely, "Demon blasts everything!"
Suddenly he felt a tremor... The young black man put down his phone blankly. The tremor grew stronger and stronger, and he felt it coming from the toilet under his butt!
"What?" Just as the young black man was about to get up, he and the toilet were pushed up to the ceiling... The floor collapsed, and a lizard monster slowly crawled out of the sewer.
The young black man, who had fallen to the ground, was cursing loudly, but his words instantly stopped when he saw the Lizard Man crawling out.
The Lizard Man brought its head close to him. The young black man's face was pale, and he was trembling with fear. He couldn't help but wet himself... "Where is Peter?" the Lizard Man demanded.
"What?" The young black man was confused, "I don't know any Peter!"
The Lizard Man swung its claw, and blood splattered out... The sharp scream from the restroom immediately attracted many people's attention. Some people seemed to recall unpleasant memories and immediately ran towards the exit to escape... He was most likely a survivor of that night's dance tragedy!
Of course, there were also brave students who walked towards the restroom, wanting to find out what was happening.
Around the corner, a group of terrified students fled. Behind them, a huge Lizard Man emerged. Upon seeing the Lizard Man, everyone's curiosity vanished, replaced by screams as they fled towards the door.
"Arthur, do you have any plans for Christmas?" Gwenasked, tilting her head.
Before Arthur could answer, the commotion outside suddenly reached the classroom, and Gwen frowned as she looked out.
Students all walked to the windows to watch.
"It's that Lizard Man!" The chubby boy shouted loudly!
"Where's Peter?" The Lizard Man asked this question every time he caught someone. He seemed extremely angry.
He would throw away students who couldn't answer and continue searching for the next target. Many people were injured; some had broken bones, others had hit their heads and fainted!
But in the narrow corridor, students couldn't evacuate in time, and to make matters worse, several stampedes occurred.
Watching the Lizard Man extend his claw towards a girl again... "Whoosh!" A web shot from behind, grabbing his claw!
Gwen quickly changed and rushed to the scene. She pulled hard on the web, and the Lizard Man was pulled to the ground, sliding.
"I thought you had disappeared from New York!" Gwenpulled the web to keep the Lizard Man away from the crowd.
The Lizard Man turned around and used his sharp claws to cut the web. He pulled the web forcefully, and Gwen flew in that direction.
The Lizard Man swung his claws in mid-air, trying to cut the flying Gwen in half. Fortunately, Gwen shot another web in the air and stopped herself.
"Where's Peter?" The Lizard Man asked Gwen, suppressing his anger.
"Peter?" Gwen was a little confused, "Peter Parker? He's already dropped out!"
Upon hearing this news, the Lizard Man could no longer control himself. He turned and swung his claws, shredding a row of lockers!
Dr. Connors was surprised to recently discover new Inhumans in New York. This technology should have disappeared with the death of Norman Osborn... Moreover, that Inhuman was stronger, more perfect, and had no flaws compared to him.
After some investigation, Dr. Connors learned the truth: it was Peter, in collaboration with Harry Osborn, who created those Inhumans!
What angered him even more was that Peter used a perfect formula to create these Inhumans, while before that, he had given him a flawed formula!
Chapter 76 Exposure
The Lizard Man angrily whipped his tail, sweeping across the ceiling, tearing the light fixture and sending sparks flying. He ripped off a locker and hurled it toward the crowd.
Gwen shot a web, caught the locker, and then yanked it back, smashing it into the Lizard Man's face. The books inside scattered across the floor.
"Calm down, Mr. Lizard!" Gwen clung to the wall, ready to spring into action. "This is a school, and the person you're looking for isn't here!"
The enraged Lizard Man had already lost his mind. He lunged at Gwen, claws bared.
Gwen shot two webs, sticking them to the walls on both sides of the corridor, and tightened the strands.
"You know what? Today was supposed to be a great day, but you ruined it!"
Gwen shot out like an arrow released from a bow. With a flying kick, she sent the Lizard Man flying over ten meters until he finally stopped upon crashing into the wall at the end of the corridor.
But the Lizard Man quickly got back up. "You can't stop me, Spider-Man!"
"No, no, no, I'm called Spider-Woman!" Gwen said, continuously firing webs.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..." Several clumps of webbing pinned one of the Lizard Man's hands to a locker. Gwen put her hands on her hips and said, "Stay right there!"
The Lizard Man used all his strength, and the locker door was actually ripped off completely. The torn edge of the door was sharp, and since Gwen had webbed its end to his hand, it was now like a sharp knife.
"..." Gwen looked speechless, realizing what a stupid thing she had just done!
The Lizard Man rushed over, brandishing the sharp piece of metal in his hand. Aided by her Spider-Sense, Gwenmaneuvered repeatedly, dodging flexibly. She leaped up and crawled across the ceiling, but the Lizard Manfollowed closely behind, as he also possessed the ability to climb walls!
Gwen landed, and the Lizard Man opened his large mouth, attempting to bite her.
"Shut your stinking mouth!"
Gwen shot a web mass, covering the Lizard Man's mouth. She lightly jumped up and landed on the Lizard Man's back.
"Stop! No more destruction!"
Gwen used her webs to grab the Lizard Man's hands and kicked his head fiercely, controlling him as he stumbled forward. Suddenly, the webs snapped. "Uh oh..." Gwenlooked at the broken webbing, sensing trouble.
The Lizard Man reached out, grabbed Gwen's leg, and brutally slammed her against the nearby lockers. With a loud crash, that entire row of lockers was dented inward.
Gwen tumbled a few times and landed on the floor. Suddenly, sharp claws flashed with cold light, and Gwenquickly shot a web to the nearby wall and pulled herself away.
A grating sound rang out as the Lizard Man left several deep gouges in the floor with his sharp claws, making Gwen feel a shiver of dread. If those claws had landed on her, she would probably be saying goodbye to bikinis for the rest of her life. Gwen had been forced into a corner, with nowhere left to retreat. The Lizard Man's eyes were icy cold. "No one escapes my grasp! Not you, and not Peter Parker..."
Saying this, the Lizard Man swung his claws. Gwen could only raise her hands to defend herself, and she subconsciously closed her eyes as she watched the claws approach. But the imagined sharp pain did not come. The next moment, a violent crash sounded in her ears.
"Clang!"
A metal cabinet from a classroom came flying at high speed, knocking the Lizard Man away. When it landed, the cabinet was already in pieces. The Lizard Man lay on the ground, touching his head with his claws; it seemed he had been hit quite hard too.
Gwen looked suspiciously in the direction the cabinet had flown from. In the empty corridor, Arthur was standing at the entrance of a classroom.
"Are you alright?" Arthur asked with concern.
Actually, he didn't need to intervene. Gwen might have gotten a little hurt, but the Lizard Man couldn't truly threaten her.
However, this clone was affected by kindness. Now, Arthur felt pity even when looking at a small white mouse, let alone watching his own girlfriend get hurt!
Even if it meant revealing that he possessed some kind of superpower to Gwen, Arthur did not want her to be harmed.
Fortunately, Arthur's intelligence remained intact despite being influenced by kindness. He chose a recently acquired ability to help Gwen—the psychokinetic control of objects using the Rooster Talisman!
Even though the Rooster Talisman was currently only Level 2, the Level 11 Dragon Talisman could continuously supply it with energy, allowing the Rooster Talisman to operate non-stop. Defeating the Lizard Man would still be effortless!
"Didn't you already leave?" Gwen had told Arthur to evacuate with the crowd before changing costumes. She suddenly remembered that she was Spider-Woman now. "Uh... I mean, haven't all the students been safely evacuated?"
"It's nice to see you again, you little thief from Queens!" It seemed Spider-Woman still held a grudge about Arthurforcefully kissing her. "Also, was that you just now? I knew you weren't an ordinary person!"
Gwen's feelings were complex now. She had finally confirmed all her suspicions: Arthur was indeed a super-powered individual!
Arthur slowly walked closer, only responding with a smile.
The Lizard Man charged forward again. Gwen stepped in front of Arthur and turned back to him, saying, "Leave this to me, you should hurry and go. He's very difficult to deal with!"
Arthur smiled kindly again. He stretched out his hand and slowly pushed it toward the rampaging Lizard Man.
Gwen heard the sound of tearing metal! Suddenly, she widened her eyes as an incredible scene unfolded. The student lockers on one side of the wall began to shake violently, and then, starting from the front, all the lockers detached sequentially. They linked together, tightly wrapping around the Lizard Man's body and continuously compressing, firmly restraining him! By the time all the lockers from that wall had detached, the Lizard Man looked like he was encased in a giant iron ball.
The Lizard Man roared, using all his strength to try and break free from this metal restraint, but it was futile. "Hmm... if your classmates see this, they're probably going to kill you," Gwen turned and nodded, saying seriously.
Arthur shrugged helplessly. "I could only resort to this method to control him... I couldn't exactly kill him. He's just a poor disabled person."
"Disabled person?" Gwen heard the joke of the century. "He has infinite strength, high aggression, he just injured many people, and his regeneration is extremely powerful—ordinary firearms are useless against him, and severed limbs regrow instantly. No one could be healthier than him! Besides, when did you become so kind? Facing a disabled enemy, it seems more like your style to kick their missing parts hard a couple of times..."
"I have always been kind. Please stop slandering me, Miss Spider..."
As soon as Arthur finished speaking, the Lizard Man's roars grew louder. The metal restraints created by compressing the lockers slowly began to crack, and were then torn into pieces by his sharp claws.
The Lizard Man grabbed the metal pieces and frantically hurled them at the pair.
Arthur and Gwen dodged agilely. The Lizard Man charged again, and given his level of rage, he seemed intent on killing the two people in front of him.
Gwen frowned and said, "It looks like we need to slip away first."
"Of course!" Arthur turned around, and a garbage can flew up under his control and slammed down onto the Lizard Man's head. "Hope you don't get mad..."
Chapter 77 Unbelievable
If the clone influenced by evil concepts were here, he would probably fully activate the Dragon Talisman to burn the Lizard Man to ashes... But the current Arthur didn't want to do that. The Dragon Talisman's flame attack was already a signature demonic attack, and another reason was that he didn't want to truly harm the Lizard Man.
Although Dr. Connors was a villain opposing Spider-Man, he had dedicated his life to scientific research. In order to stop the Osborn Group from initiating human experiments, he injected himself with an immature lizard serum, which led to him becoming like this.
Too much suffering had befallen him, which made Dr.Connors somewhat extreme. Even after his transformation, he only wanted to share powerful animal genes with everyone, allowing humanity to no longer suffer from illness. Therefore, in a sense, he was not a criminal; at least, the current Arthur believed that Dr. Connors was completely worthy of forgiveness!
Unfortunately, the Horse Talisman was not currently unsealed. It could only cure minor human ailments and repair simple objects, which was nowhere near enough to solve the genetic issues that arose after Dr. Connors injected the lizard serum... Otherwise, Arthur would definitely use the power of the Horse Talisman to help Dr.Connors become a normal person. That should be the meaning of his existence: using his power to save more fallen souls and help more people suffering hardships...
The two arrived in front of a classroom. Inside, an old man wearing headphones was working and listening to music with his back to them, completely oblivious to the major battle happening outside.
"You go first!"
Gwen said, intending to face the Lizard Man, but a desk flew past her at high speed, knocking the Lizard Man to the ground.
"Alright..." Gwen said. "Do we need to formulate a strategy? You attack, and I'll circle behind him and tie him up with webs!"
"Sounds good."
Arthur waved his hand lightly, and another desk flew out at high speed, smashing against the Lizard Man's head. These objects became quite powerful once they possessed high kinetic energy.
Gwen crawled across the ceiling and circled behind the Lizard Man. She used her webs to bind the Lizard Man's limbs, crawling over his body like a spider. The webs continuously wrapped and reinforced until her webbing was finally exhausted, and the Lizard Man had been turned into a giant White cocoon.
The Lizard Man was still struggling, trying to break through the restraints... "Done!" Gwen said, clapping her hands.
Slowly, the Lizard Man stopped moving. Gwen looked over; he was lying motionless on the ground, looking completely drained of energy and utterly exhausted.
Something miraculous happened before their eyes: the Lizard Man began to shrink. His claws disappeared, revealing human fingers. His green skin seemed to melt away, and slowly, his lizard characteristics began to vanish, and human features started to emerge... Finally, a middle-aged man lay amidst the pile of metal debris.
"Dr. Connors?" Gwen was stunned after a single look. "Well, you were right. He really is a disabled person!"
Gwen still found the fact hard to accept: that disgusting green Lizard Man was actually Connors, her internship mentor... "How did you know the Lizard Man was Dr.Connors?" Gwen asked.
"I can see through everything..."
"Including me?" Gwen's heart started racing.
Siren sounds echoed in the distance. Not long after, the New York police entered Midtown Tech again.
"You should leave first. I will explain this unbelievable situation to the police..." Gwen said.
"Director, the criminal who attacked the campus was already arrested when we arrived... Spider-Womanhandled everything."
Chief George frowned slightly upon hearing this. He said helplessly, "Alright, tell the colleagues in the news department to prepare for overtime..."
Chief George walked up to the vehicle holding the criminal. The police Officer cautiously opened the door.
"Director, he is very dangerous..."
Inside sat a middle-aged man, wearing a shirt and trousers provided by the police, with specialized handcuffs on his wrists.
"Dr. Connors?" Chief George was stunned.
Connors, who had already woken up, leaned against the back of the car seat. He turned his head, gave George a faint look, and then continued staring ahead expressionlessly.
"I remember witnesses described the criminal as the Lizard Man. The police even fought him on the Brooklyn Bridge," Chief George said, closing the car door. He was shocked. "Are you mistaken? He is a very famous biomedical Professor. How could he be the criminal who attacked the campus? Don't tell me Dr. Connors is that Lizard Man..."
"We can't confirm that, Director!" the Officer explained. "When we arrived at the scene, the fight was already over. Spider-Woman had trapped him with her webs and told us he was the Lizard Man. There was no Lizard Man at the scene except for him..."
"This is insane..." Chief George found it hard to accept. "Send Dr. Connors to a special prison for now. Continue investigating the scene and don't miss any clues!"
"Yes, Officer!"
After George finished the basic work, his phone suddenly rang. He answered; it was his daughter Gwen calling.
"Dad, we're on your left!"
George turned around and saw Arthur and Gwen holding hands and watching him from the shade of a tree not far beyond the police tape. He waved at the two of them.
"I'm happy to see that both of you are safe," George said. "Gwen, tell me you two have made up. That would make me even happier!"
"Yes, Dad, as you can see." Gwen raised the hand she was tightly holding with Arthur from a distance.
George smiled faintly. "Gwen, did you two see the Lizard Man with your own eyes?"
"Yes, everyone was terrified and running for their lives. He was destroying the campus and harming students, but Spider-Woman appeared and stopped him just in time..."
"And after that? Did you see the scene where the Lizard Man turned back into a human?" George interrupted Gwen, who was speaking excitedly.
"No, we went to a safe place..." Gwen and Arthurexchanged glances.
To this day, Gwen and Arthur maintained their understanding: Arthur did not expose Gwen as Spider-Woman, and Gwen pretended not to know that Arthurpossessed superpowers... Was this their little game of flirtation?
"Alright," George said, somewhat disappointed. "Your school will likely be closed for the day. Remember to be careful when you go out to play, and I can pick you up tonight."
... Gwen put down her phone and watched George walk into the teaching building where she had fought the Lizard Man.
"It looks like we need to find a place to eat lunch!" Gwensaid, pursing her lips.
At this moment, Arthur's two clones had completely merged, no longer influenced by concepts of evil or good.
"The criminal was taken away by the police again. It won't be another acquittal, will it?" Arthur pouted. "Spider-Woman should have dealt with the Lizard Mancompletely!"
Gwen was confused again. Just moments ago, Arthur had expressed that Dr. Connors was pitiful and deserved sympathy.
"He is a disabled person..." Gwen couldn't help but say.
"Then dealing with him should have been even easier..." Arthur also nodded. "Spider-Woman can't even beat a disabled person!"
Gwen: "..."
She suspected Arthur was schizophrenic...
Chapter 78 Prison
Security Council Minister Pierce and Agent Rumlowwalked one after another down the long corridor, with guards and Agents saluting them along the way.
This was a secret prison of S.H.I.E.L.D. located in the Triskelion, holding many dangerous criminals who had not yet been brought to trial.
For example, the Winter Soldier, who had assassinated former S.H.I.E.L.D. Director Nick Fury, and Steve Rogers, who was suspected of threatening S.H.I.E.L.D.'s internal security, were both temporarily imprisoned here.
Rumlow arrived in front of a sealed door. He entered the digital password and performed biometric verification before opening the door.
Inside the room were four fully armed combat personnel, holding M16s, wearing high-powered stun batons at their waists, and not only wearing bulletproof vests but also riot masks—they were armed to the teeth!
It was no wonder Rumlow had arranged such caution; anyone who saw the person inside the solitary confinement cell would not think any piece of their defensive equipment was superfluous... Pierce met Captain America's gaze through a thick layer of glass. Captain America rose from his seat and approached the glass.
"Be careful, Captain Rogers!" Rumlow warned, "The glass is electrified. High voltage is just as effective against superhumans like you!"
"I didn't expect you to be with HYDRA too, Pierce," Captain America said in a deep voice. "Nick Fury told me before he died that you were his closest friend... but you betrayed him!"
"Nick owes his position as Director entirely to me," Piercesmiled. "Whether the identity is HYDRA or S.H.I.E.L.D.doesn't matter, as long as it helps me accomplish what I want to do!"
"But you are wrong. You will kill many people, and you are destroying this beautiful World!" Captain America said coldly.
"How self-righteous!" Pierce shook his head. "I didn't come here to debate with you, Captain. I have endured for decades for this plan, and nothing will change because of a few words from you... I'm just curious what Nick said before he died? Of course, I never intended to ask you anything; torture won't be necessary. 'Insight Project' has officially begun, and nothing can stop me... Oh, right, now we call it 'Demon Project'!"
"What do you mean?" Captain America frowned tightly. "Has the Demon truly joined HYDRA? Or is he also involved?"
Pierce merely smiled at him and said nothing.
Captain America was silent for a moment before saying, "Director Nick told me before he died that S.H.I.E.L.D. has been infiltrated by HYDRA. He discovered your conspiracy and told me to stop you."
Pierce shook his head, clearly not believing Captain America's statement.
"The Demon merely shares a common goal with us."
Pierce took a long look at Captain America, then turned and left. It wasn't until he reached an empty section of the corridor that Pierce turned back to ask Rumlow.
"Has the security detail outside the prison been replaced by our men?"
Rumlow nodded confidently. "The security is foolproof. No one but us can reach him!"
"We absolutely cannot let him talk nonsense in front of others," Pierce said after a moment's thought. "Before we start, pull the Winter Soldier out of the prison. Handle it yourself."
"Yes!"
Rumlow hesitated for a few seconds but still proposed his idea: "I think we should kill Rogers to eliminate future trouble. As long as he is alive, he is a destabilizing factor."
"That's too much trouble. The paperwork required to transfer Captain America out of S.H.I.E.L.D. is complicated, and we need a plausible reason," Pierce shook his head. "Right now, our focus is the 'Insight Project.' We can't afford any complications. Just let him stay in that room! When he comes out, it will be a World unfamiliar to him..."
...After Pierce left, Captain America, confined to the prison, grew anxious. He observed the specialized cell but found no way to escape from the inside.
But clearly, Pierce and HYDRA had already begun their conspiracy. If no one stopped them, many people would die... This made Captain America feel restless. Perhaps because he had defeated HYDRA once during World War II, facing HYDRA gave him a sense of mission. He had to dismantle HYDRA's 'Insight Project' once again!
Captain America's anxiety intensified as time passed. After more than ten minutes, he couldn't help but speak.
"Are all of you members of HYDRA? Were you part of HYDRA from the start, or did you join S.H.I.E.L.D. first and then get flipped by HYDRA?" Captain America tried to gain leverage from the outside to solve the trouble he was currently facing.
"Zzzzt!" A guard raised a stun baton to intimidate him.
"Keep quiet, Captain!" the nearby guard reminded him. "This cell has many other functions. I don't think you'd want to try them all sequentially..."
His voice abruptly cut off when another guard suddenly stabbed him with a stun baton! He was taken down before he could even react.
Captain America was stunned. Through the glass, he watched the turncoat guard throw two more coin-sized cards, which stuck to the riot helmets of the other two guards and began to vibrate. A high-pitched, piercing sound emitted, and the two men instantly collapsed onto the ground.
The turncoat guard lifted the riot mask, revealing a beautiful and moving face, with soft black hair scattering like willow catkins.
"Agent Hill?" Captain America's tone was filled with surprise.
"This thing is giving me a headache!" Hill tossed the riot mask onto the floor.
She came to the cell that held Captain America. After a fluent sequence of operations, the glass wall slowly began to rise.
Captain America let out a deep breath and stepped out.
"I thought this time I would be fighting alone..."
"Alone, you would only watch HYDRA's conspiracy succeed... and so would I. That's why we need to unite," Hill said, gesturing toward the three guards lying temporarily incapacitated on the ground. "Black Widow is already in position, and Hawkeye is waiting for us outside."
Captain America understood. He quickly changed into a guard's uniform, then tossed the three men into the cell that had just confined him. Hill pressed the button, and the glass wall lowered again, sealing tightly!
Agent Hill was clearly very familiar with the layout and patrol routes here. She led Captain America smoothly the entire way; whenever they encountered checkpoints or gates, the access control automatically opened without her needing to operate it herself.
"Was this also Director Nick's preparation?" Captain America was slightly surprised.
Hill faintly shook her head. She didn't speak, but Captain America saw a hint of sadness in her eyes.
The two left the prison, then got into Hawkeye's car and left the Triskelion Base. After multiple transfers aimed at evading tracking, they arrived at a S.H.I.E.L.D. safe house.
"Captain!" Sam had been waiting for a long time.
"We went to check his house, and he voluntarily followed us," Hill said, shrugging.
Captain America embraced the Falcon. "You didn't have to get involved..."
"Hey, Captain America needed my help! Isn't that reason enough?" the Falcon smiled. "What you can do, I can do too, just a little slower."
"Natasha? Where is she?" Captain America asked, looking around.
Hill sat down in front of a large screen. "Where she needs to be..."
Chapter 79 Immortality
When Pierce returned to his office, he saw the Demon standing sideways in front of the massive floor-to-ceiling window, looking down at the calm lake, seemingly waiting for the surface to crack, the gate to open, and the three Sky Carriers to ascend.
Pierce could vaguely sense that the Demon also seemed very invested in the successful execution of the "Insight Project," and was not merely seeking the pleasure of destruction. The Demon had his own schemes and tricks... But it didn't matter, Pierce would make the Demon disappear along with the "Insight Project"!
It wasn't just Pierce who hated the Demon; after meticulous calculation, Zola Dr. generated a list of humans who might pose a threat to HYDRA in the future. In addition to this list, Zola Dr. specifically warned about the danger of the Demon!
He used a massive amount of data to calculate the Demon's potential, but he never got a concrete result. The level of his algorithm was insufficient to predict the Demon's future. However, based solely on the military power the Demon possessed, his threat to HYDRA was self-evident!
The Demon could help HYDRA overthrow the order of human society once, and he could also help others destroy the order created by HYDRA!
Pierce knew that he had to kill the Demon!
"Enjoy the last moments of peace, Mr. Demon." Pierceapproached the Demon slowly, holding two glasses of champagne. "For the period ahead, the World will only be filled with the sound of gunfire!"
The Demon ignored him, and Pierce didn't mind.
"And you will become extremely busy!" Pierce smiled. "As per your request, the short film you personally recorded introducing 'Demon Project' will be sent out an hour from now, and networked electronic screens across the Worldwill loop it!"
"I believe many people will come knocking then, seeking revenge, venting their anger, or perhaps trying to stop Demon Project!" Pierce said. "You will truly be very busy. There will be many such people, even New York has so many Superheroes... You need to help us hold them off for one hour."
"Before that, shall we have a drink?" Pierce handed over a glass of champagne. "A toast to our powerful alliance!"
Arthur turned and looked at Pierce. Pierce was radiant and glowing, likely due to the imminent realization of the life goal he believed in, making him mentally excited.
Arthur ignored the champagne Pierce was holding. "You should be praying now that your work doesn't encounter any mistakes, otherwise you won't even have a chance to regret it."
Pierce was deaf to Arthur's threat. "Don't worry, Mr. Demon, there won't be any mistakes!"
"Nick Fury is dead, Captain America is imprisoned, and by the time everyone else learns about 'Demon Project,' it will be too late. No one can stop us!" Pierce counted off. "HYDRA has fulfilled everything promised to Mr. Demon, including the worldwide release of the short film, the live broadcast, and the website for targets to browse—everything is ready!"
As he spoke, Pierce became even more excited, tilting his head back to drink a mouthful of champagne.
"The members of the Security Council from various nations have arrived at the airport and are rushing here. The great 'Demon Project' is about to begin!"
The phone rang, and Pierce answered the call.
"Minister, Captain America has escaped..."
Pierce looked as if a bucket of cold water had been dumped on him; his smile froze on his face.
Arthur looked at him coldly: "It seems things aren't going as smoothly as planned!"
Pierce looked at the coldness in Arthur's eyes and retreated in fear... "Our time is very tight! And the enemy we face might be the entire S.H.I.E.L.D.... The worse news is that the Demon is also involved, and he has never failed so far."
Hill's slender fingers quickly tapped on the virtual keyboard, and models of three Sky Carriers appeared on the 3D screen.
"To stop HYDRA from initiating the 'Insight Project,' we must infiltrate the carriers and replace their targeting modules with ours."
Hill opened a silver-white briefcase containing three green chips.
Captain America, Falcon, and Hawkeye exchanged glances, and each took a chip.
"The three of you correspond to Ship A, Ship B, and Ship C, respectively," Hill said, gesturing toward the three Sky Carriers. "Replacing only one or two is useless. We must gain control of all three Sky Carriers; only by destroying all of them will the mission be considered a success! Because even if only one Sky Carrier remains operational, millions of people will still die!"
"So what should we do now?" Falcon asked, looking at the chip in his hand.
He felt a little uneasy; he had never shouldered such a major mission before! Moreover, this task was vastly different from his previous work.
"Infiltrate the Triskelion," Hawkeye said flatly.
Captain America strapped weapons onto himself, explaining, "If we stop the Sky Carriers from launching, then everything is over!"
"How do we infiltrate?" Falcon was stunned. "That's S.H.I.E.L.D. Headquarters, one of the safest buildings in the World..."
"Luckily, we're not fighting alone..." Hill said in a deep voice. "Director?"
"I will clear the path forward for you."
A voice familiar to Captain America rang out—it was S.H.I.E.L.D. Director Nick Fury! Falcon looked as if he had seen a ghost. Captain America looked around in shock, but the empty corners were deserted.
Suddenly, all the lights and screens in the room turned on, and the sound of whirring fans filled their ears.
"I'm here, Captain!"
Captain America looked forward; Nick's face was holographically projected onto the main screen.
"I thought you were dead..." Captain America said, shaking his head. "Where are you now? What place in New York is safer than here?"
"I am right in front of you, Captain," Nick said, staring at Captain America. "I really did die, dead in those flames... You watched me lose my heartbeat in the hospital, and you covered me with the sheet."
Captain America fell silent. Nick's words seemed to have dredged up the memory of that night... Since he received the serum injection, he thought he would never feel that sense of powerlessness again, but that night he could only watch helplessly as the Demon rampaged and Nick died beside him.
"But I came back to life. I was reborn from the flames! I have achieved eternal life..."
"What exactly is going on?" Falcon was getting impatient; what was happening before his eyes was too shocking.
"In 1972, Zola Dr., who surrendered to HYDRA, was diagnosed with a terminal illness, but he was crucial to a research project at the time. So, he created a device called an 'Consciousness Repository,' transferring his consciousness into a massive computer from that era. That massive computer is still located in a secret S.H.I.E.L.D.facility in New Jersey. I believe Zola Dr. is one of the planners of HYDRA's 'Insight Project'..."
"With his experience, I successfully used the 'Consciousness Repository' to resurrect myself on a supercomputer, just as you see me now."
Nick calmly recounted his tragic experience, which silenced the four people present.
"I have never felt so good. Not only will I help you in this mission, but I will also be involved in S.H.I.E.L.D.'s future work..." Nick said calmly. "Perhaps the physical body was merely my shackles; now I am unbound!"
"Captain, it's up to you now!"
Chapter 80: The Plan Begins
The black Mercedes motorcade slowly drove up. After the vehicles stopped, the Security Council representatives from various countries stepped out of their Mercedes cars and gathered together.
"How was the flight?" Pierce greeted them with a wide smile.
"Not bad, but the drive from the airport here was terrible..." said the female Security Council member. "It's a long story!"
"It's a pity S.H.I.E.L.D. can't control everything, including Captain America!" Pierce said, shaking his head. "News just came from the prison: he broke out and escaped."
"Stop with the small talk, Pierce. We aren't here for sightseeing; we are here to witness an unprecedented event in human history!" It seemed this Security Councilmember had long been dissatisfied with Pierce.
Pierce smiled and nodded apologetically. He waved his hand, and his assistant opened a silver-white briefcase containing four specialized badges.
"The Triskelion's security system requires identity verification. If verification fails, it will trigger the alarm and defense systems," Pierce explained. "The identity verification here relies on biometrics, and this badge will allow you to move freely within the facility!"
The Security Council members offered no objection; after all, this was S.H.I.E.L.D. Headquarters, so strict security was normal. The female Security Council member's eyes flickered slightly, but seeing that everyone else put on the badge, she reluctantly did the same.
Pierce then led the four Security Council members into the observation elevator until they reached the Control Room on the top floor.
"The launch preparations for the three Sky Carriers are nearing completion. Please wait patiently for a moment longer."
Pierce waved his hand, and the assistant placed a tray of champagne glasses on the table.
The four Security Council members had no time to enjoy the fine champagne prepared by Pierce. They stood in front of the massive screen, watching the three enormous Sky Carriers displayed on the underground surveillance feed, their faces solemn.
The busy work of the internal staff in the underground Base had finished. Vehicles transporting supplies and workers were exiting the area, driving beneath the massive Sky Carriers, looking tiny like ants.
The three Sky Carriers stood towering like mountains. Over a dozen fighter jets were parked on their decks, and countless gun barrels on the hulls revealed a chilling murderous intent!
The underground broadcast continued:
"We have entered the final stage of launch. Everyone, please leave the launch Base and the carrier decks and proceed to a safe location..."
"Now I am completely convinced that the 'Insight Project' will succeed... This truly is an exciting moment!"
Pierce simply smiled when he heard this and picked up a glass of champagne.
"I know the road to the 'Insight Project' has been difficult, and some of you here might have developed a dislike for me, haven't you?" Pierce raised his glass: "But we are finally gathered here, about to initiate the 'Insight Project.' We will cleanse this World, and everyone will be grateful!"
The four Security Council members silently raised their glasses, celebrating the completion of this great work. A staff member nearby raised a camera to photograph the historic moment.
The five people stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, holding their glasses and looking at the calm lake. A countdown timer was displayed in the upper left corner of the large screen behind them; in a few minutes, the three Sky Carriers would ascend right before their eyes...
"Attention all S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents, this is Steve Rogers!" Suddenly, a voice came over the broadcast.
The four Security Council members looked astonished, but Pierce remained completely calm.
"The Captain who just escaped from prison," he said, shaking his head mockingly. "He is a loyal follower of Nick Fury. He won't let the 'Insight Project' proceed smoothly."
In the monitoring room on the other side, Captain Americaand his group easily bypassed S.H.I.E.L.D.'s security system with Nick's help. Captain America was standing in front of the microphone, beginning his speech.
One member said, "No one can interfere with the 'Insight Project.' This is a failure on your part, Pierce!"
"Save the accusations for later!" Pierce raised his glass to him from afar.
Pierce's dismissiveness made the member extremely angry, but before he could react, Captain America said something shocking over the broadcast...
"S.H.I.E.L.D. is no longer the S.H.I.E.L.D. it once was; it has been completely infiltrated by HYDRA! Their leader is Security Council Secretary Alexander Pierce! Piercecolluded with the demon, using the officially promoted 'Insight Project' to clear the way for HYDRA..."
Several members turned to look at Pierce. Pierce had already walked over to his desk, picked up his phone, and ignored the stares of the others.
Captain America's voice continued: "The murder of Nick Fury was just the beginning. If you launch the Sky Carriers today, HYDRA will be able to kill anyone who obstructs their plans!"
"Pierce!" the previous member shouted loudly. "Aren't you going to give us a reasonable explanation? This isn't something that can be explained away as a difference in opinion or internal conflict!"
Pierce continued to smile calmly; no trace of anger or frustration at having his plot exposed could be seen on his face.
"We had originally planned to reveal all of this later. We even thoughtfully filmed a short video to answer your questions!" Pierce sat down leisurely in his spot. "But it doesn't matter. It's all the same sooner or later. No one can change anything!"
"Gentlemen, 'Demon Project' has begun..."
Suddenly, several guards nearby raised their guns and pointed them at the four members. This abrupt change left them completely shocked, but facing the cold muzzles, none of them dared to make a move.
Inside S.H.I.E.L.D., emotions ran high. Agents looked around at those they had known, their eyes now full of suspicion and wariness.
Finally, the countdown reached zero. Suddenly, all the electronic screens went dark, and everyone realized they could no longer control the computers in front of them!
The screens lit up again, and some people instantly jumped in fright... They looked at the familiar yet terrifying demon mask on the screen, and panic began to spread.
"Ladies and gentlemen..."
As the video played, the demon's voice was heard. After a brief and polite greeting, he began to introduce his "Demon Project."
"Once the Sky Carriers reach thirty thousand feet, they will use Insight satellite triangulation to become weapons of mass destruction. Each Sky Carrier is equipped with long-range weaponry capable of killing one thousand people in one minute!"
"The chosen lucky ones won't need to show their faces; the ammunition raining down from the sky will take care of you! This plan aims to kill twenty million people worldwide over the course of one week."
"I have already posted the list of lucky recipients on the official 'Demon Project' website. Everyone is welcome to visit the official site. After entering your detailed region and name, you can check if you are one of the lucky ones!"
"What an exciting moment... The three Sky Carriers are about to launch. 'Demon Project' countdown: one hour!"
Chapter 81 Fear Spreads
At the same time, that demon mask dominated the LED screens of all commercial centers across the World, and the introduction video for "Demon Project" was being broadcast worldwide on a loop.
New York Times Square, Tokyo Ginza, Paris Champs-Élysées, Hong Kong Central... Pedestrians stopped in their tracks, watching the video with stunned expressions, constantly posing existential questions to those around them.
"Is today April Fool's Day?" "Are aliens attacking Earth?" "Who is the Demon?"... But no one could answer their doubts, nor could they confirm if the words spoken by the person called Demon were true. After all, the news of an evil villain planning to kill twenty million humans globally was too outrageous... Moreover, he claimed to be using the weapons of an intelligence organization under the "World Security Council."
However, panic was already brewing, spreading rapidly through the internet. The Demon's ability to control so many electronic screens proved the immense power he wielded, making everyone fear such a lunatic.
This World had too many anti-heroes, criminals, and villains. Every region had its own wickedness. The Demon was originally only famous within New York; most people in other countries had never even heard his name.
But after today, countless people would deeply remember the name Demon, remembering the fear he instilled in them on this day!
When the live broadcast showed the three Sky Carriers taking off, people's panic intensified... They gradually believed the Demon's words, that in one hour, three Sky Carriers would truly fly over their heads, harvesting twenty million lives in a hail of fire.
The traffic to the "Demon Project" official website was soaring, with millions of people clicking to visit every second, coming from all over the World.
People nervously filtered regions and entered their names. Waiting for the page to refresh after hitting the enter key felt strange, like they were checking their own destiny... even though this shocking "Demon Project" had not yet been officially proven true.
If they saw a blank page or only found someone with the same name, they breathed a sigh of relief, realizing it was a false alarm. They immediately scoffed, wondering who was behind this boring prank!
If the webpage showed their name on the execution list, the feeling of dread would be infinitely magnified in that instant, but they would give themselves positive psychological reassurance: "Demon Project" is obviously nonsense!
People's joys and sorrows differed, but within just a few minutes, the level of chaos in the World increased exponentially.
New York was the first to descend into madness... because everyone there knew the infamous Demon, understood his past achievements and methods, so when the Demon earnestly announced "Demon Project," most people believed him.
The city's chaos wasn't entirely due to those on the death list. Soon, criminals emerged on the streets, starting small-scale looting and smashing, and the police station switchboard operators never got a break.
"There are suspected gang gatherings on West Third Street, send a squad to check it out! Someone nearby also reported rape; send the nearest patrol officer!" Georgeroared, "Everyone get moving! Don't believe that fake 'Demon Project.' We will arrest the Demon sooner or later! Until then, trust the government!"
Under the fear spread by the Demon, the police officers' work had become quite passive. The biggest reason was that some of their colleagues had also found their names on the website. If this truly was the last hour of their lives, who would want to spend it working?
Except for George Stacy, he never went to that website to check his name. His mind was focused entirely on how to stabilize New York, or repeatedly using the filthiest language to curse that lunatic Demon!
... Pierce held his phone and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window. Everyone's gaze followed him.
The lake surface began to segment into several areas. The gates slowly opened, and surging Water created White spray.
As the lake opened up, the first things revealed were the fighter jets parked on the Sky Carrier deck runways, followed by the entire massive hull. The three aerial fortresses were unveiled for the first time. Once they were operational and airborne, they would never need to descend.
Pierce took out his phone and composed a message. HYDRA would proceed according to plan.
While the Sky Carriers were ascending, they would use detection equipment and satellites to search for and pinpoint the Demon's location.
When the Sky Carriers reached an altitude of thirty thousand feet, the revised "Insight Project" would officially launch. The ultra-long-range strike weapons would begin Carnage sequentially, based on the regional lists!
Based on the underlying code of the "Insight Project," the system's first wave of Carnage targeted Terrorists and criminals worldwide. The second wave consisted of humans identified by Dr. Zola as potential future threats to HYDRA: politicians, wealthy merchants, scholars, or those with superpowers.
Of course, throughout the entire process, they would monitor the Demon's location. The moment he was exposed to the firing zone, all three Sky Carriers would halt their purging mission and redirect all firepower to eliminate him.
Pierce's face was flushed. He smiled as he watched the Sky Carrier engines start. Pierce looked back at the crowd: "I will eliminate wickedness and establish a new order!"
The massive Sky Carrier flew out from behind him, eventually blocking the light from the entire floor, blotting out the sun!
"Captain, they have launched," Agent Hill's voice came through the comms of Captain America and the others. "Altitude 200 feet!"
Captain America's face was solemn. Although he had long anticipated this terrible outcome, it was still difficult to accept when it actually happened.
"I'm on my way!" Captain America said, looking back. "I need a ride, Sam!"
"You got it!" The Falcon waved his hands, and a pair of steel mechanical wings unfolded.
"I found the Demon!" Hill suddenly shouted. "Radar scans show he's on the roof! Be careful!"
... On the roof of the Triskelion, Arthur stood in the Shadow of one of the Sky Carriers.
Since "Demon Project" began and the short video was broadcast, the system notifications for acquiring villain points had not stopped. Although the value was small each time, the speed at which they accumulated was rapid.
In just a few minutes, the villain points Arthur harvested had already exceeded one hundred thousand. He had successfully made tens of millions of people feel fear!
This was only the beginning. As time passed, people would feel increasing dread, reaching its peak when the sound of gunfire erupted!
It was obvious that this change in the method of acquiring villain points was extremely successful, but Arthur was not overly delighted; instead, he was terrifyingly calm... At this moment, he was carefully contemplating: What does it feel like to make the entire World tremble?
Because for him, villain points were merely a tool to enhance his strength. The surge in villain points was not enough to make him overly joyful... Arthur looked up at the continuously ascending Sky Carrier, then looked down at the Falcon flying toward him, and smiled faintly.
Chapter 82: Alloy Behemoth
Falcon was carrying Captain America, flying, when suddenly he saw an object fall from the top of a building...
The next moment, blinding light lit up in the air. The ball of light flickered continuously, like the Sun had fallen!
Falcon and Captain America, who were flying in the air, heard a Beast's roar. The cry resembled a dragon's chant or a tiger's howl, resounding through the clouds!
The two were full of questions when suddenly a giant claw appeared out of thin air, swiping from the ball of light, flying towards them at high speed!
Falcon dodged in a panic. After their forms swayed violently in the air, he and Captain America began to fall continuously. Falcon had no choice but to choose an emergency landing. Captain America was also covered in cold sweat from this sudden murderous intent; if they had been struck by that giant claw, it would have been hard to survive.
"Boom!"
The massive sound produced by the heavy object hitting the ground was deafening, and an Impact spread rapidly outward. It was as if a meteorite had landed, and the World seemed to shake!
After descending to a safe altitude, Falcon put down Captain America, then turned back and ascended, flying towards the direction where the giant object had fallen.
The landing site was the underground Base that had opened in the lake. It was originally the place where three Sky Carriers were stored. The Sky Carriers had taken off, leaving only a huge pit.
Now, dust was flying in the huge underground Base, and the calm lake surface was stirred into towering waves by the massive tremor. Falcon's gaze pierced through the dust filling the sky, and he could vaguely see the silhouette of a giant Beast standing there, with roaring sounds continuously coming from it.
"What is that?"
"That is..." Hill's astonished voice came through the communication channel.
When the giant object fell, she had obtained a relatively clear image through slow-motion playback of the surveillance video. She looked at the giant Beast's form and reached an answer, but she dared not confirm it. That was a creature that should only exist in the movie World...
What was happening at the Triskelion was also being transmitted to all parts of the World via live internet broadcast. People had been focusing on the launch and takeoff of the three Sky Carriers, but now, this unprecedented shocking scene could no longer hold their attention!
The dust settled, the camera focused, and countless people saw the ferocious face of this Alloy Behemoth through the live broadcast!
"Is that... Godzilla?"
If Dr. Zola had added a bullet screen function when creating this live streaming website, the words "Godzilla" would be flooding the screen right now.
The giant Beast's appearance was like a dinosaur, standing on two legs, fitting the image of Godzilla. But its body was forged from silver-gray gold-titanium alloy, reflecting a luster under the Sun, with every detail embodying the perfect combination of an ancient giant Beast and ultra-modern technology...
The Alloy Behemoth Godzilla was nearly 100 meters tall, with a tail length of about 160 meters and a weight of 55,000 tons.
A demon mark was tattooed on Godzilla's chest, and below the mark were the English words "Demon Creation".
That shocking live broadcast footage could absolutely not be achieved by any special effects. Looking at that massive Alloy Behemoth, people fell into confusion.
"Demon Creation"? Was this Godzilla manufactured by a demon? Would it also participate in that terrifying "Demon Project"?
People had many doubts. Those on the death list were even more terrified. With his powerful strength, the demon had once again proven that the "Demon Project" was not a prank!
Falcon was flying and circling in the high altitude, observing the giant Beast at close range. The real-time footage was transmitted back to the temporary command room through the lens on his glasses.
Fortunately, this giant metal Godzilla had landed in the underground Base where the Sky Carriers were stored. Godzilla stood in the huge pit, with only its shoulders and above exceeding the ground level.
Otherwise, with its terrifying destructive ability, it could have flattened the entire Triskelion building in an instant, and many innocent Agents would have died.
At the moment of landing, all facilities inside the underground Base were destroyed. Due to the Impact of the massive tremor, the lake floodgates were rotating and about to close. Godzilla reached out a claw, grabbed the floodgate, and easily tore the huge metal gate apart amidst a harsh screeching sound.
In an instant, countless lake water poured back into the underground Base, cascading like a waterfall.
Godzilla let out a long roar, its two claws grabbing the broken edge of the gate, and it climbed upward with force.
"It seems to be trying to climb out!" Falcon shouted into his headset.
In the temporary S.H.I.E.L.D. command room where Hillwas, they were stunned as they watched the footage transmitted back by Falcon.
"Director, does your database have any information on related creatures?" Hill looked back at Nick on the screen. "Does Godzilla have a prototype?"
"I have checked the S.H.I.E.L.D. database and found nothing. Clearly, Godzilla is not a creature that belongs to this Universe!" Nick's voice came from the speaker. "Do you remember that day at Morgan Bank, when the demon resurrected a kung fu panda?"
Suddenly, an instrument indicating energy changes jumped, and the bar chart representing the values was rising crazily, even touching the red line! That meant the external energy monitoring instrument had sensed some powerful energy that was constantly gathering!
In the footage, Godzilla tilted its head back, and in its wide-open giant mouth, a fluorescent blue energy mass could be seen gathering!
Hill yelled into the microphone: "Dodge quickly!"
Falcon instantly twisted his mechanical wings to dodge. Thanks to his military career, he did not hesitate at all after hearing the order!
The next moment, Godzilla spat out a blue energy beam, sweeping across the area where Falcon had originally been flying. The end of the energy beam pierced through the firmament, and even the clouds showed a gap!
The slow-to-react Falcon's heartbeat accelerated. If not for Hill's timely reminder, he would have already turned into fly ash in that attack by Godzilla!
Falcon dared not hover in front of Godzilla anymore. Captain America on the ground was also helpless; he could only temporarily join the work of evacuating S.H.I.E.L.D. personnel from the scene.
"We need air support!" Captain America shouted in the communication channel while directing the flow of people.
...
Standing on the rooftop, Arthur smiled and shook his head. Under the power of the Rat Talisman, the Godzillamodel was endowed with life and strength, easily stabilizing the battlefield.
Just now, Arthur had used the newly acquired 200,000 villain points to upgrade the Rat Talisman to Lv6, allowing Godzilla to obtain 65% of the energy originally set, not exceeding the Dragon Talisman.
Relying solely on Godzilla's massive size and sturdy gold-titanium alloy exterior, it was not something that Superheroes like Falcon or Captain America could contend with, let alone the fact that it also possessed high-lethality attack methods such as Atomic Breath, Radiation Heat Ray, Super Spiral Heat Ray, and Red Lotus G-Flash Heat Ray!
Arthur stopped watching and turned to leave.
...
Since Godzilla appeared, the entire building had begun an emergency evacuation, but it was impossible to clear a building in a short time!
Godzilla's roaring sound came out again, even the glass was shaken, and people trembled in the sound waves.
"That monster is about to climb up, Captain!" Falcon called out, "Get out of there quickly!"
Captain America was lost in thought as he watched the continuous flow of people evacuating from the entrance.
"There are still many people trapped in the building, we need time!"
