Chapter 1440: A War of Words and Fists, and Batman Attacks
Luke had already given everyone a heads-up about Wade’s character.
He had to be even more blunt with the tycoon, in case he thought that this lunatic was deliberately provoking him.
Wade: “Boss 2, do you have…”
Suddenly, he turned around, drew two huge pistols from his legs, and blew up two Chitauri fliers charging at him from behind.
Then, he turned around and asked, “…Do you have to jump off a building if you’re unhappy?”
Tony rolled his eyes and jumped. Flames burst out of his feet as he casually destroyed two fleeing fliers with two shots before he left.
Wade immediately followed him. “Hey, boss 2, wait up.”
Tony decisively sped up, using his actions to indicate that he hadn’t heard the lunatic, and shot straight into the sky.
How could he reply and say that someone had thrown him out?
…
A few minutes before his fall, Tony had flown back to the top of Stark Tower to see if he could cut off the power supply to the machine that the Tesseract was in.
In the end, he found someone lounging on the roof with a glass of wine.
Tony’s face darkened. “Loki?”
Loki saw him too and smiled wickedly. “Stark? It seems you’re very smart. You guessed that I would come here, and rushed back from the Helicarrier in advance.”
He had chosen this as the best place to enjoy this grand performance.
Tony looked at the other building, which had the machine that couldn’t be stopped. He ordered Jarvis, “Remove Mark 6, prepare Mark 7.”
Jarvis said, “Sir, Mark 7 is still at the trial stage and remote control has to be perfected.”
Tony said, “It’ll be enough for me to beat this coward into a pulp and send him running. If we want to stop that d*mn machine, we can only use Plan B.”
Jarvis said, “Mr. Wayne said there’s always hope as long as you survive.”
Tony was surprised. “Why don’t I remember him saying that?”
Jarvis said, “Alfred mentioned it in one of our conversations.”
Tony said, “Mr. Wayne is not your master. Listen to me.”
He landed on the platform and walked inside.
A ring rose and moved with him. The robotic arms on the ring began to take off the damaged Mark 6.
When Tony stepped into a room ten meters away, all the armor had been removed, and he walked to the bar counter in a T-shirt and casual pants.
What followed was a battle of words between two super second-generation heirs.
As Tony poured the wine, he tried to threaten Loki with the superheroes’ revenge. Loki didn’t really care.
However, when he heard Tony say that they would let Loki’s brother lead the way and be the first to give Loki a good hard punch, Loki’s face stiffened.
From what he knew of his brainless brother, that could really happen.
A brainless teammate was really annoying.
Cursing this pig of a brother in his heart, Loki was too lazy to talk nonsense. He smiled wickedly and walked toward Tony. “If you become their enemy, they can only deal with you first. At that time, they won’t be in the mood to come find me.”
Under the counter, Tony calmly put on the remote control bracelet for Mark 7, which looked like a smart watch.
He didn’t forget to mock, “Oh, how are you going to turn me against them? With that sweet mouth of yours?”
Unmoved, Loki continued walking toward him with a smile. “You shouldn’t have taken off your armor. It’s really easy now…”
As he spoke, he raised the scepter in his hand, and the tip of the curved blade tapped Tony’s chest.
Ping!
There was a light clink.
Loki looked at Tony in bafflement. “Kneel?”
Tony grinned. “That fairy stick of yours not working?”
Stumped, Loki raised his scepter and pointed it at Tony’s chest.
Ping!
Tony suddenly shouted, “Now!”
Loki stared at Tony’s chest in disbelief, then looked at the scepter in his hand. “That’s impossible. It’s never failed before.”
Tony smiled widely. “There’s always a first time. You’ll get used to it, little brother.”
Loki flew into a rage out of humiliation. He grabbed Tony by the neck with his other hand and said, “Then you can get used to the feeling of falling off a building for the first time.”
As he spoke, he threw Tony at the full-length window.
The tycoon crashed through the glass and fell.
Then, Deadpool appeared.
Tony hadn’t succeeded in getting the last word, and had even been flung out by the enemy as if he were a ball. How could the tycoon tell that lunatic such a humiliating thing?
Besides, now wasn’t the time to talk.
Big Dipper and Selina’s suppressive firepower indeed worked very well in the short-term.
However, in the brief time before Luke and Selina started their attack, more than a hundred fliers had already swarmed out of the space portal.
Luke realized that this advance troop wasn’t attacking indiscriminately like in the movie.
The fliers that rushed out besieged Batman like flies.
Most of those that descended attacked Big Dipper and Selina, while only a few flew around and wreaked havoc.
It was clear that they were using most of the team to protect the space portal and throwing most of their strength at the three offenders: Luke, his clone and Selina.
As more and more Chitauri fliers slipped through the portal, Big Dipper and Selina’s firepower support was severely affected.
Luke’s side, which was already at a slight disadvantage, was now being suppressed.
Of course, Tony had to step up. He didn’t even have time to deal with Loki.
It was also at that moment that Batman, amidst the barrage from the Chitauri fliers, was finally able to kill his way to the portal.
Instantly, an enormous shadow that took up slightly under half of the portal surged out.
Luke cursed inwardly, but didn’t hesitate. He fully activated the propulsion system and abruptly shifted to the side.
He brushed past under a giant mouth, but caught on a sharp ridge on the enormous shadow.
Hitting the shadow with a thump, Luke spun away.
He didn’t panic. Physical Outburst + Elementary Quick Reflex + Elementary Telekinesis + mastery of physical techniques – he unleashed all his abilities.
As he spun, he stretched out his hands and adjusted himself.
The power of the two jets under his feet constantly changed to help him master his momentum.
After three spins like this, Luke regained his balance. Sticking close to the gigantic shadow’s underbelly, he charged into the space portal.
At the same time, the huge shadow completely rushed out of the portal, its entire body finally appearing in front of the Earthlings.
Frank, who had basically been a spectator the whole time, finally perked up. “Black Bear, attack..”
