Chapter 54: Relentless Pursuit! Hulk Appears!
Bruce Banner watched the increasing heart rate on his watch, forcing him to stop and take deep breaths around a corner to lower his heart rate! However, Bronski didn't give him much time; in a flash, he spotted Bruce Banner.
He raised his tranquilizer gun and fired, but missed. Banner, realizing he was being pursued, started running again, using the crisscrossing alleys and roads to leave Bronski far behind. Gradually, only Bronski could keep up with Bruce Banner.
The prolonged chase infuriated Bronski. To pursue a scientist for so long and not catch him! The pride of being an ace soldier made him feel deeply humiliated, and he began to resent Bruce Banner.
He then pushed harder, chasing after him. As soon as he saw Bruce Banner, he would open fire. Banner was also nearing exhaustion under Bronski's high-intensity pursuit. Although Hulk was incredibly powerful, he himself had not received any enhancements.
He was an ordinary person through and through. If it weren't for his familiarity with the terrain, he would have been caught by the Military's ace soldier long ago! Banner, arriving at a bustling street, hid in the crowd to calm his heart rate, using the people as cover so Bronski couldn't find him.
But luck was not on his side; the three men he had offended earlier by saving that woman just happened to spot Banner! The bald man in the middle led them towards Banner, which made the already uneasy Banner even more bitter. The three looked menacing, clearly not coming with good intentions.
After taking a deep breath, he continued to run, and this run caused Bronski to spot him and give chase! The bald trio also noticed Banner running and immediately pursued him, wanting to teach him a lesson, leaving Banner chased by two groups of people.
While feeling bitter, his heart rate also began to rise continuously. Soon, he found himself at a beverage factory. With nowhere else to go, Banner had no choice but to run inside the factory. The pursuing bald trio also followed Banner into the beverage factory. The factory was now empty, perfect for teaching him a lesson.
The bald man felt annoyed thinking about how Banner had disrupted his plans earlier. Banner ran deeper into the beverage factory! Bronski was the last to arrive at the factory, and it was only with the assistance of a drone that he knew Bruce Banner had entered the factory.
Mainly, it was due to his unfamiliarity with the terrain that the bald trio entered the beverage factory before him! Banner hid in a corner of the factory to calm his heart rate and evade the bald trio's pursuit, but the next second, he was directly discovered by the bald trio.
Smack!
"Run, aren't you good at running? You ruined my plans, let's see how I teach you a good lesson!"
"No... give me back my backpack, don't provoke me, or you'll regret it, trust me!"
Boom!
Banner, caught by the bald trio, was instantly surrounded. The bald man snatched Banner's backpack and then slapped him! Then the other two punched Banner in the stomach. Feeling his heart rate rapidly rising, Banner weakly spoke to the three.
But they clearly wouldn't believe him. After another punch to Banner's stomach, his heart rate instantly reached the level where Hulk could appear. Then Banner's skin began to turn green, his body started to swell, his clothes and shoes ripped apart, and Hulk appeared!
Roar!
Hulk appeared and slapped one man flying. The bald man and another scrambled out of the beverage factory, but Hulk wouldn't give them a chance! He grabbed a machine nearby and threw it towards the bald man and the other man.
With terrifying strength, he threw the machine, and the next second it smashed into the two men, instantly crushing them into pulp, with blood splattering everywhere! Just then, Bronski appeared, utterly shocked by the green monster before him. General Ross had not told him about the existence of Hulk within Bruce Banner.
He simply thought the other party was a weak scientist. After realizing what was happening, he immediately switched to his submachine gun and began attacking and spraying bullets at the green monster! The bullets hit Hulk's body without leaving any scars; it was more like tickling Hulk.
Boom!
The next second, Hulk grabbed a nearby machine and threw it at Bronski, but he dodged it. After a roll, he continued to attack Hulk with his submachine gun! Outside the beverage factory, several black cars arrived one after another. Soldiers got out, armed with weapons, and rushed into the beverage factory.
They began to cooperate with Bronski to attack Hulk, even bringing heavy firepower for this purpose! Dense bullets hit Hulk's body. While it wouldn't injure Hulk, it was very annoying! The enraged Hulk ripped up the surrounding machinery and threw it at the soldiers attacking him.
Boom!
A soldier aimed an RPG at Hulk and pulled the trigger, successfully hitting Hulk. Bronski watched this scene and breathed a sigh of relief, thinking the opponent should have been dealt with. But the next second, he saw Hulk appear before everyone, completely unharmed.
This scene completely surpassed Bronski's understanding. Even an RPG couldn't injure him; how terrifying must his defense be? He then began to cooperate with the surrounding soldiers, using weapons to suppress Hulk, but Hulk simply didn't play by the rules.
He charged wildly towards Bronski and the others. Upon seeing this, Bronski dropped his submachine gun, took two grenades from a nearby soldier's waist, pulled the pins, and threw them at Hulk. Then he grabbed the soldier in front of him.
He took him and ran to the side. As the grenades exploded, Hulk remained completely unharmed, but the soldiers hit by Hulk were not so lucky! Some were sent flying, others were directly stomped to death by Hulk, their heads even crushed.
Only Bronski and the soldier he had just saved remained at the scene; almost all the others had sustained injuries of varying degrees and could no longer continue fighting! But Bronski did not surrender. He picked up a rifle from the ground and continued to attack Hulk.
The soldier he saved did the same. Hulk grabbed a thick iron pipe from nearby and threw it towards Bronski and the soldier. Without checking if it hit, he immediately made a huge leap, breaking through the factory roof, and after a few more huge leaps, he entered the forest and disappeared from everyone's sight.
Because Hulk threw it casually, Bronski and the soldier were lucky not to be hit.
