Crimson explosion flames connected the sky and earth.
A huge mushroom cloud soared straight into the clouds.
And all of this was not without witnesses.
In fact, the people from Kamar-Taj didn't choose to take the Avengers into the Mirror Dimension just now. Instead, following the Avengers' suggestion, they transferred to a small island outside New York City via portals.
The intention was to keep an eye on the New York battlefield at all times and support Luca immediately.
However, everyone now seemed to regret their 'recklessness.'
Because the crimson meteor shower that almost covered the entire New York not only destroyed the city instantly, but the endless violent shockwave it brought also directly triggered a massive tsunami.
"Everyone! Prepare to resist the impact!!"
Steve roared, raising his shield first.
Uh... Of course, the Captain's shield, which couldn't even fully protect his own body, was just for show.
But reminded by his roar, the Kamar-Taj mages immediately rubbed their hands together, instantly raising golden magic shields of various sizes.
The omnic legions under Luca also partially anchored into the ground and partially linked together, quickly protecting all Avengers members behind them.
The next moment.
BOOM~
The surging tsunami smashed down head-on. The golden shields cast by several less capable Kamar-Taj mages were instantly shattered by the waves.
Fortunately, these shields were layered together, and what they endured was ultimately just the aftermath. The continuous surging waves didn't shatter all the shields.
Finally, everyone, soaked from head to toe by seawater, withstood the aftermath. Lying on the beach in disarray, they stared blankly at the crimson mushroom cloud in the distance that hadn't completely dissipated yet.
"How many nuclear bombs did this kid carry on him??"
Because he was wearing the Veronica armor, the mere tsunami impact didn't affect Tony much.
But even so, he was still staring at New York in the distance, muttering to himself constantly.
Although Luca had reminded everyone to leave New York and explicitly stated that he was going to use his 'Ultimate Move,' Tony never expected that the 'Ultimate Move' Luca mentioned would be such a scene.
Of course, the nuclear bomb remark was just a figure of speech. He wasn't blind; he could clearly see the endless red crystal meteors falling just now.
Moreover, a mere nuclear bomb couldn't produce such red light filled with a dangerous aura.
However, just as he finished muttering to himself, Rhodes, who was also wearing the Iron Patriot suit and hadn't fallen in the impact...
Quickly came behind Veronica and slapped the back of Tony's helmet directly.
After a crisp CLANG.
Under Tony's very confused gaze, Rhodes scolded unceremoniously.
"Still calling him kid! Still calling him kid?! Show some respect when you talk to him!"
Hearing his friend's teasing, Tony rolled his eyes speechlessly. But this time, surprisingly, he didn't continue to retort.
Meanwhile, inside the Brooklyn area at the center of the explosion.
Everything had turned into ashes.
Unlike nuclear explosions which are often 'airbursts,' the explosion produced by the red crystal meteors was a solid impact on the ground before triggering the detonation.
Inside New York City now, the ground was full of countless huge craters, large and small. Even the earth seemed to have been tamped down a section.
And near the original giant Hell Gate, the very center of this explosion, there was an extra-large crater hundreds of meters wide.
Inside the crater, the crimson light lingered, unable to dissipate completely.
Even because of the extreme high temperature accompanying the explosion, the earth in the huge crater was scorched red, like semi-solidified magma surface.
Note that the continuous charging of the red crystal meteors not only increased the attack range, but the terrifying energy accumulated at the core of the attack instantly turned everything into nothingness.
As for those previously arrogant demon 'Elementals'?
The red crystal meteors were not just simple energy impacts. They were professional weapons born to deal with demons, regardless of whether you had a physical body or not. Those demons had long been completely dissipated at the beginning of the impact.
Even the numerous Hell Gates that were constantly pouring out demons just now seemed to have quieted down.
And in this New York that had been completely turned into scorched earth.
Except for those Hell Gates that were inherently unaffected by external forces, above the huge crater of hundreds of meters at the center of the explosion, a figure was actually floating slowly in the air.
Uh, this wasn't Luca.
Vision, with a red face and looking more like a demon than a human, slowly landed on the edge of the crater, opened his palm, and revealed the universal capsule well-preserved in his palm.
As the button was pressed.
Pop~
A cloud of white smoke dispersed.
The figure of the Boxer Gundam reappeared in New York.
"Phew~ Finished bombing? Looks pretty powerful~"
After reappearing, Luca looked around and sighed with a lukewarm tone.
Although it was a pity not to witness his ultimate move with his own eyes, even with the protection of the Boxer Gundam, Luca didn't want to face an attack of this scale head-on to taste its power.
Fortunately, now Luca had Vision, a subordinate with invincibility ability who could also increase his own density to become heavier, unafraid of being blown away by the explosion shockwave.
It just happened to avoid the awkward situation where he turned into an energy cube after throwing his ultimate move, only to be blown away by his own attack to some unknown corner.
But...
Although this wave cleared all the demons in the entire New York, and even the subsequent demon troops on the Hell Gate side seemed to have temporarily failed to continue deploying troops here due to bearing the explosion impact at 'close range'...
But after looking around, Luca discovered an even more awkward problem.
"What am I going to use to cover this Hell Gate rift?!!"
Originally, when he first saw this hundred-meter Hell Gate, Luca's plan was to find a building of similar height and directly put it over the Hell Gate to 'seal' it.
But looking at it now, let alone a suitable building around here, it was hard to find even a decent piece of rubble.
And not just in the area near Luca, after a round of meteor shower strikes on the entire New York.
Those large containers, empty water towers, oil tankers, and similar things that everyone used to 'seal' the Hell Gates before probably had very few survivors left.
Realizing that he seemed to have made a big mistake, Luca helplessly could only open the communication channel and contact Tony.
"Tony, how big is the biggest transport plane you sent this time?"
