Chapter 273 [Two Chapters Combined] The Value of My Father's Spider-Man Role
You know what, this distorted and fabricated argument actually managed to stir up the emotions of these thugs!
After all, when Hulk appeared, most of the thugs were so frightened that they scattered and kept their distance from each other.
The radical leader had only activated the thugs who were relatively close to Peter during the attack, using them as human bombs.
As time went on, all the rioters who learned the truth were "gloriously killed." Those who survived because they were farther away were too busy escaping to know the sinister truth hidden behind the explosion.
In addition, given that Tony was once America's top arms dealer, it's easy to assume that his villa must contain a large amount of weaponry.
This led the surviving rioters to actually believe the nonsense told by the radical leader!
It's only natural to assume that the explosion just now was Tony and his crew's doing! It's a signal that Tony is no longer going to pretend and has decided to leave them all here to silence them!
Thus, as the radical leader finished speaking...
The rioters, who had been standing there dumbfounded after being distracted by the loud explosion, were suddenly enraged by the feeling of shared grief.
After all, in their view...
Leaving aside their original goal—killing Tony Stark, a far too dangerous objective—…
They only tore down Tony's front door, and Tony killed so many of them!
They're so rich and reckless, they don't care about their lives at all!
Influenced by this preconceived misconception, and deliberately misled by the radical leader, the rioters quickly realized...
If we keep running, we'll only be picked off one by one by these terrifying monsters!
So, whether it's to avenge their comrades or simply to survive...
They must unite and concentrate their firepower as much as possible to kill these beings who are beyond human capabilities on the spot!
After a brief silence, the thugs who had been fleeing in all directions began to turn around and charge back at Tony and his men!
Furthermore, with their numerical advantage, they truly exude a sense of oppressive power and killing intent!
Unfortunately, they were ultimately just cannon fodder to make up the numbers. They couldn't simply change their mindset and become like the protagonists in anime and novels, spouting strange words about friendship and bonds, instantly leveling up and wiping out the power gap between them.
Look, here it is...
"roar--!!!!"
When he witnessed the group of thugs return, not only failing to surrender but also daring to retaliate and try to continue "bullying" his friend.
Hulk, who was originally worried about how to comfort Peter, suddenly felt a nameless fire ignite in his heart!
His emerald green eyes grew even deeper, and he showed absolutely no mercy to the thugs.
He first stepped forward a few paces and slammed his large, fan-like hands together, creating an invisible shockwave that blew away a large number of thugs.
Then he leaped into the air, landing right in the center of the crowd. Accompanied by chilling roars, he instantly unleashed a devastating mowing-down-the-hill attack, slaughtering these reckless thugs!
Clearly, due to Riley's influence, Hulk has hardly made any public appearances, causing people to gradually forget about Hulk's existence over time.
They also forgot that the reason Hulk is feared and dreaded is because if you anger him, he will really kill you without any mercy!
And now, he's witnessing his best friend's younger brother being bullied like this! And almost getting blown up right before his eyes!
This undoubtedly brought Hulk's anger to its peak in an instant!
With a barrage of deadly moves and no holding back, Hulk, who could easily wipe out a heavily armed army on his own, was nothing short of a walking nightmare for these poorly equipped, cobbled-together thugs!
Not only did he shatter the dream of a comeback with three punches, but he also cried out, "Sir, I'm just an ordinary person!" This caused the morale, which had finally begun to recover, to plummet once again.
Whenever a radical leader sees that the situation is not going well and tries to detonate the thugs around Hulk, Hulk ignores their pleas for mercy and cries for help, smashing them into mincemeat in an instant and forcibly interrupting the detonation process!
Not only did it awaken the fear in people's hearts that was once dominated by gamma monsters with its brutal fighting style!
Furthermore, they proved it with their actions...
Without the constraints of the principle of non-killing, the trump card that the radical Skrull leader relied on could not pose any threat at all!
"Damn it, these Earthlings are so unreliable... We should have killed them all before Spider-Man grew up!"
Seeing that, with the help of Tony and Hulk, the suicide squad he had painstakingly assembled could not even touch Peter, let alone kill him, the radical leader was furious.
Left with no other choice, in order to minimize the disparity in strength between the two sides, the radical leader could only beckon to his elite confidants who obeyed his orders. Then, with a pained expression, he reached into his robes, took out ten bright green syringes, and injected them one by one into his confidants' bodies.
Before long, the originally thin confidant began to visibly swell up with fleshy growths amidst heart-wrenching screams.
Until, amidst that roar to the heavens, they transformed into super-hates with eyes gleaming with ferocity!
Clearly, after replacing Nick Fury, the radical leader of the Skrulls also used this authority to gain "cheat codes" for himself.
The collaboration that SHIELD originally made with Norman Osborn to distract Nick Fury undoubtedly gave the radical leader an opportunity to profit from it!
Before the Lizard Man incident was resolved by the Parker brothers, Nick Fury, just in case, obtained a batch of Lizard Man serum from Norman Osborn and temporarily stored it at S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters.
So that in case of any deviations during the serum development process—such as the recent mass transformation of "volunteers" into reptilian beings rampaging through the streets, or even a widespread infection like in Resident Evil—S.H.I.E.L.D. could use this batch of serum as samples to create a corresponding antidote to resolve any sudden crises.
Unfortunately, Nick Fury had indeed made ample preparations for the Lizardman serum. But he never expected that on his way home, he would be ambushed and taken away by the Skrulls.
Along with the lizard serum, which should have been considered the last hope, it also fell into the control of the Skrull radical leader.
In addition, they had already made up their minds to strengthen their own faction as much as possible and prepare for war with all of humanity. On the night the radical leader replaced Nick Fury, he did not forget to have the imposter immediately issue an order to go to Mr. Blue's residence.
Then, under the guise of cleaning up the scene and taking charge of the aftermath, they collected blood samples that inevitably fell to the ground when Hulk suppressed Super Abomination and beat it up.
Ultimately, by analyzing the blood components of the Super Abomination and replicating the new serum as much as possible, they combined it with lizard serum and the Extremis virus...
The Skrull radical leader, relying on S.H.I.E.L.D.'s resources, secretly made a fortune and successfully replicated the second-generation Super Abomination serum!
Moreover, this version is even more powerful, retains its self-awareness, and, with the powerful body of the Super Abomination, is able to stably control the effects of the Extremis Virus for a short period of time!
Of course, the Skrull radical leader was well aware of just how dangerous the Extremis virus was.
Not to mention, due to the different timelines, the Extremis virus he has obtained is only the earliest test version, with even more vulnerabilities than the one in Iron Man 3!
If one gets emotionally agitated, such as being mocked in the face and breaking down, one may uncontrollably enter a countdown to self-destruction under the influence of the body's instinctive reaction of reddening!
This means that once injected with the second-generation Super Abomination Serum, the only fate awaiting the user is to become a human-shaped nuclear bomb, just like those thugs! There is no other way! It's just a matter of time!
Even so, creating a serum with such enormous risks, which can only be used as a single-use consumable, requires a huge amount of manpower and resources!
Without arousing suspicion from S.H.I.E.L.D.'s higher-ups, who might then send someone to intercept it...
The ten vials of serum that the Skrull radical leader has now distributed to his cronies represent all the serum he currently possesses!
So, unless they are forced into a corner like this, the radical leaders really wouldn't be willing to use them!
He had originally planned to kill Peter, which would drive Riley to lose his mind and stop him from plotting those unpredictable schemes, and then he would immediately go into hiding.
Then, they'll find a way to produce more serum. Once they have enough, they'll lead the second-generation Super Abomination army out of hiding. With overwhelming force, they'll ruthlessly kill Riley, who has ruined so many of their plans!
The only saving grace is that the reason the confidants became confidants is because they all harbored absolute loyalty to the radical leader!
So much so that even knowing how dangerous the side effects are, they still choose to get the injection without hesitation.
Having just completed their transformation, the second-generation Super Abominations turned around one after another. With deep, angry roars, they leaped into the air, charging straight at the Hulk!
This commotion naturally attracted Hulk's attention.
When Hulk, who was having a great time mowing down thugs, looked up and was shocked to find that he was greeted by ten Super Abominations, even the usually fearless Hulk couldn't help but show a comical blank stare and fall into a state of daze.
The next second, Hulk, who had been pinned down by ten Super Abominations and subjected to a barrage of punches and kicks, immediately reversed the situation. He covered his head with his hands, curling up as much as possible to minimize the area he was vulnerable to attack, while simultaneously letting out cries of pain as if possessed by Tom the cat!
"Banner—!"
Meanwhile, seeing Hulk fall into a disadvantageous position, Tony, who had been circling in the air and using his palm cannon to "call out" the thugs one by one, also turned pale.
Furthermore, to prevent Hulk, whom he considered the strongest fighter, from being defeated so humiliatingly by the enemy's mob attack, Tony could only constantly adjust his flight attitude in the air, trying to avoid the thugs' RPG rocket launcher attacks, while rapidly gathering the energy from the arc reactor towards his chest.
So that upon reaching directly above the Hulk, after a brief charge and aim, the large-caliber energy cannon on the chest of the Iron Man suit would be activated. The previously accumulated energy would then be directed at the Super Abominations stacked below, now obscured by the Hulk, and fired at full power!
However, Tony's actions were far too direct. Moreover, the charging animation before the energy cannon fired was enough to attract the attention of the Super Abominations.
In this way, if they choose to scatter and run away, Hulk will only suffer for nothing.
So, while charging up, Tony didn't forget to raise his hands. Aiming at the Super Abominations below, he used a tool that Tony would never have used in the original storyline.
Spider silk projectile.
Yes, that's right.
During the development of the Iron Man suit, Tony, perhaps out of trust and admiration for Riley, wanted to get as close to him as possible after so many years apart.
Tony chose the web-launching devices Peter had created, which were small in size, consumed little energy during activation, and effectively restricted an opponent's movements. When used at the right time, they could achieve a complete surprise attack!
[Tsundere Tony: Don't even think about it, it's definitely the second one, it can't possibly be the first one...!]
This led Tony, with Peter's consent and assistance, to design embedded, hidden web-shooting devices on the wrists of the Iron Man suit.
Furthermore, because the arc reactor provides ample power and the Iron Man suit does not require webs for movement, the research and development focus can be placed on other functions.
Tony's version of the web-launching device not only doesn't degrade on its own, but after parameter adjustments, it's also thicker and stronger than the original! It's practically like a giant aircraft carrier arresting cable!
So much so that, having already assumed that Tony's attack methods were all ranged attacks during the previous observation process, the Super Abominations were really not on guard against Tony's sudden display of this underhanded trick!
By the time they realized what was happening, Super Abominations were already tightly bound together. They could only watch helplessly as Tony's energy cannon blasted solidly into their bodies!
With a single shot, the cannon pierced through the chests of several Super Abominations! This allowed Hulk, who was at the bottom, to withstand the energy cannon fire, now significantly weakened after being pierced through, and to leap up and escape the dangerous situation!
Thus began the unexpected encounter, coupled with Riley's somewhat mischievous and ironic humor, which led to a situation where the odds were reversed in this world, creating the "My Father is Spider-Man" scenario...
Tony actually managed to deliver a stunning and effective blow during the actual combat!
