Chapter 1570 - Calling a Friend for Help, and a Killing Embrace
Chapter 1570 Calling a Friend for Help, and a Killing Embrace
While the civilians withdrew from the station, Luke was at an impasse.
He had no choice but to send his friend a distress signal again. “Where are you? This guy’s skin is too thick. If you don’t get here soon, he’ll hide behind his sister’s skirt.”
In any case, Big Dipper wasn’t the tycoon, and didn’t have to worry about saving face.
Tony said, “Two minutes. At least two minutes.”
Saying that, he couldn’t help but ask, “What happens if he runs back to his sister?”
Luke sent the information that the Dark Knight had obtained from the metal fortress.
Tony took a glance and sucked in a breath. “What the hell is this? The energy is climbing so fast, and the composition is very strange.”
Luke said, “I don’t know, but I think they’re waiting for that thing to reach a certain level. We might be in big trouble then.”
After a brief silence, Tony sent, “I’ll be there in 100 seconds. But which side should I hit first?”
Luke said, “If possible, help me restrain the Warlock for ten seconds. Then head over to the station and help Knight tear down the metal fortress.”
Tony understood. “Okay.”
The two of them quickly put together a subsequent attack plan. Luke was talking seriously, but the Warlock, who was Big Dipper’s opponent, was cursing non-stop and could only hide.
no
That was right – unlike the brief confrontation at the station, Big Dipper was currently crushing the Warlock.
After they left the station, the Warlock was met with a storm of attacks the moment he landed.
Luke only buffed his telekinesis twice with credit points before he gave up.
He realized that the man’s body was very resistant to telekinesis.
The surface of the Warlock’s body produced an electromagnetic repulsion effect which forcibly “deflected” the telekinesis.
Enchanted telekinesis thus had no lethal effect on him.
Luke also used an attack with Elementary Annihilation. Even though the vigilant Warlock suddenly turned his head at the last moment, half of his head was still cut.
It was a severe injury, and the Warlock turned from arrogant to extremely cautious, and no longer gave Luke a chance to attack his vitals.
Currently, the Warlock was running around and blocking Luke’s attacks with his annoying tentacles.
Even when part of a tentacle was cut off with Elementary Annihilation, it could immediately regenerate.
The cut parts would go crazy and run around the city at high speed, devouring any civilians they encountered to replenish energy.
Just like that, the two parties fell into a war of attrition. Neither of them could return to the station to support their comrades.
This was a huge headache for Luke.
An opponent who was very fast and agile, and whose strength and defenses made it impossible for anyone else to restrain him, was really annoying. As long as he was still alive, he would immediately flee and frantically devour people for blood.
This sort of big boss with a HP regeneration ability was practically a cheat in a big city. So far, Luke had left in his wake half of the guy’s head, more than a hundred tentacles, half of his ribs, a leg, and part of his sternum with the heart attached – it was enough for a barbecue.
However, Luke still couldn’t kill him. Instead, the other party devoured more than 20 civilians and was still alive and kicking.
What Luke needed now was a teammate who could take a beating and with strength and output no less than his to restrain the Warlock so that Luke could kill him instantly.
The Hulkbuster suit sounded sturdy and strong; otherwise, it would be smashed to bits by the Hulk in just a few hits.
The tycoon wouldn’t pass up this mission!
Thinking that, Luke tried his best to control the Warlock’s movements and prevent him from returning to his sister.
He had only been able to throw the other party into the air when the latter was off guard; how could he let him go back?
The Enchantress was fragile; if there was an opportunity, it would be possible to kill her in one blow.
But if she teamed up with the Warlock, given the latter’s quick reflexes and durability, it would be more than ten times harder to kill the Enchantress.
Even if you die, you have to die out here! Making up his mind, Luke chased the Warlock and kicked him.
The Warlock blocked him with one tentacle and didn’t stop running. He didn’t understand how things had developed to this point.
But his sister was right. The black-and-white face in front of him was a monster. The previous robot didn’t even have one tenth of the original’s combat ability.
In terms of speed, they were basically on the same level.
Without a speed advantage, Luke would still be a lot weaker. Now, however, he was a huge threat because of that energy which could cut the Warlock’s body easily.
These terrifying energy cuts weren’t like the mental attack described by the Warlock’s sister.
As long as he was caught, he would be instantly cut into pieces.
He wouldn’t die, but he wouldn’t be far from it.
He had to get back to his sister.
Only with her magic support would his close-range fighting ability be more of a threat, and he could avoid this one-sided beating.
For a time, everyone was at an impasse
The chaos in Grand Rapids had settled slightly, while Flegg’s side was doing all they could to evacuate people. Flegg had already received the intelligence from Frank. When he learned that the Enchantress’s brother could recover his strength by devouring human blood, his initial unwillingness disappeared. He knew how difficult it was to deal with the Enchantress.
He would be crazy to let her use her brother as protection, and to leave so many “blood bags” around for him.
He was here to complete a mission, not to die.
The civilians had to be sent as far away from the station as possible, and to several different locations. They couldn’t give the Warlock a chance to recover quickly.
The delicate balance lasted for a short 100 seconds, and officially ended with Tony’s arrival.
Tony had summoned the Hulkbuster beforehand, and a huge oval metal capsule fell from the sky to cover him.
Less than ten seconds later, a gigantic suit more than three meters tall appeared, and with one jump, it entered the battlefield hundreds of meters away.
The Warlock, who had been fleeing ignominiously after Luke’s fierce beating, suddenly sensed an enormous figure on one side.
Without any hesitation, he lashed out with one tentacle.
At the same time, another tentacle grabbed onto a wall for him to make a quick turn. He didn’t care who the newcomer was. In any case, he absolutely couldn’t be slowed down by this unexpected factor.
That lunatic behind him had already cut off more than 500 kilograms of his mass.
However, two whips suddenly blocked his escape route as they spun rapidly to unleash a huge electromagnetic force.
The Warlock had no choice but to slow down.
Tony, who had been in contact with Luke the whole time, lunged forward, and four thick metal limbs wrapped around the huge body of the Warlock in a killing embrace.
