Chapter 132: The Arsonist (2-in-1)
There are only four Guardians.
And tonight's fire alone has two different places.
One by one, the students held their breath, nervous.
They could have expected that giving up one of these places would be the best thing to do, but this was the Guardian!
Everyone was expecting a miracle.
A miracle happened.
"Leave the other place to me."
A confident voice came over the radio throughout the logistics center.
A reddish-gold figure then appears in the picture.
That's Iron Man, Tony Stark!
"Great!"
"Cool!"
"Iron Man is so handsome!"
The logistics center was suddenly in a burst of cheers.
There is nothing more exhilarating than witnessing the heroes set off with hope, and those who despair in the flames will have a miracle.
"I've notified the fire brigade across New York and asked them to send their fire brigade to patrol Manhattan." Playboy Tony was particularly calm at this time, "There should be quite a few fires tonight." β
"The criminal analysis department has already profiled the arsonist's character." At this time, the Minister of Logistics received the message, "Male, with obvious arson violence, arrogant personality, eager to be noticed, experts believe that several arson incidents tonight may be a provocation to a specific guardian, and there should be a follow-up plan." β
In fact, this fire-controlling person has long been on S.H.I.E.L.D.'s watchlist, but S.H.I.E.L.D.'s record is timid and fearful, and the danger is not high.
And now I got a completely different answer.
For people with this kind of dangerous ability, the evaluation of S.H.I.E.L.D. was still very careful in the past, and the only possibility of this situation was what happened to the other party during the period after the fall of S.H.I.E.L.D.
"Provocative?" Tony has arrived at the second fire site, "Then he should go directly to me, or to the virtual reality company, instead of venting on ordinary people, he is just a coward." β
It's not for nothing that Tony would be angry.
Because even if they arrived in time, such a large fire may have caused some people to die.
Relying on one's own strength to inflict violence on innocent people is the most hated act of all heroes.
But Tony didn't know it himself.
The other party is indeed coming for him.
On the construction site of Stark Tower, the lights are still bright.
To build a building hundreds of meters high in just a few months, even with the most advanced frame construction structure, it is impossible to do it, but Tony Stark has the money, and 1,800 workers work in three shifts 24 hours a day, so even at night, there are close to 700 construction workers working.
And not long after Iron Man's figure crossed the sky, a fat man weighing more than two hundred pounds walked out of the street.
Price, who is wanted for fire control.
"Finally, the day has come."
Price's small eyes, which were covered by fat, stared at the construction site in front of him, with obvious hatred and unusually excited emotions in his eyes.
He hated Iron Man immensely, but he longed to be as conspicuous as Iron Man, even if it was the angry gaze of people.
"Bring the tanker truck over." Price commanded into his phone.
His ability is not to generate flames, but to direct them, and there is a power in his body that allows them to spread in the direction he controls, or even transform into what he wants.
So as long as there is enough combustible fuel around, he is invincible.
Flames, rising in the light as bright as day.
"Urgent news, the arsonist has appeared!"
The VR company's logistics center was in chaos and shouts rang out, almost at the same time that the new Stark building was on fire, two more places in Manhattan were deliberately set on fire.
There is no doubt that the real purpose of the other party is Tony's new landmark building, which represents Stark Industries.
As Iron Man and the Guardians deal with other places, the flames of the construction site spread at breakneck speed.
The roaring flames completely enveloped the entire construction site, the fire snake soared into the sky, and the distorted light could be seen in half of Manhattan, and Price stood at the top of the tall building, hundreds of construction workers were forced by the flames to shiver in several different places.
There were already police helicopter gunships circling in the sky, but no one dared to attack.
Because the momentum of the flames was already uncontrollable, a tanker truck was parked next to nearly a hundred workers, and the flames wrapped around them, but it was as if they were controlled by an invisible force, just circling around them.
Once out of control, there is no doubt that all the workers here will be engulfed in flames in an instant.
"Crazy, isn't this guy crazy!"
Parker clenched his fists, a little incredulous.
The worst person he usually comes into contact with is just his classmates, and he has seen this kind of thug who threatens the lives of nearly a thousand people.
But there was a slight bit of ...... in Harry's surging gaze Excited.
He knew what the other party was waiting for, waiting for Iron Man, waiting for the Guardian, waiting for the world's cameras.
"I am the Monarch of Flames! Lord of Fire!! β
Price stood high in the air with his hands outstretched, the flames in the shape of a dragon hovering around him, shining on the fat face laughing wildly, the most dazzling moment of his life.
Shen He was also a little excited at this time.
He stayed at the top of a building not far away, with only Saiki Kusuo and Joan of Arc, all wearing robes that represented the Chaldean uniform.
"Qi Mu, have you seen this scene?" Shen He asked.
"Nope." Qi Mu Nanxiong shook his head, "What I saw was that the entire building had been covered in flames, and many people were struggling. β
What Qi Mu saw was the image of the arsonist being killed, the flames were uncontrolled, and the entire building and the workers inside were finally burned.
At the same time, the helicopter of the TV station has already arrived.
Price keeps the pose, he wants the whole world to see his kingly posture, and he wants Iron Man to surrender in front of the whole world.
Shen He didn't expect that this villain who fanned out of butterfly wings would be so powerful.
In addition, the momentum has exceeded his expectations, and he can't help but want to give the other party a best assist award.
The more powerful the villain looks, the more it can highlight the status and strength of the Chaldeans.
"Master, when are we going to help?" Joan of Arc turned and asked.
Heroic Spirit's eyesight allowed her to see the innocent people huddled inside.
"Don't worry, with Qi Mu here, we'll wait." Shen He shook his head.
Flame is the best power to control the telekinetic force, because the formless and massless nature also needs oxygen to burn, so as long as the air is properly rolled, it can be easily taken away.
Therefore, Shen He was not worried, and considering the other party's contribution to the Chaldeans, he decided to let this villain continue his performance, at least having a chance to finish his lines.
It's about 10 o'clock at night, and for those who live in the city, most of them haven't rested yet.
As a result, more and more people are turning on the TV to pay attention to this amazing superpower crime.
At this time, the Guardians were still tired of running from one fire site to another.
Only Iron Man, Tony Stark, wearing armor, finally arrived at the scene.
When the red-gold figure appeared in mid-air, the frightened workers seemed to be much calmer, and the audience in front of the TV felt even more hot in their hearts.
That's the beauty of superheroes.
Tony flew in front of Price, who already had a general idea of what was going on.
The workers were also deliberately divided into several different places.
If the fat paper in front of him becomes a dead fat man, even Iron Man will not be able to save everyone inside.
"Sir, Mr. Shen has arrived nearby."
Jarvis' announcement relieved Tony.
Although I don't know why Shen He hasn't made a move, since they have already come, there shouldn't be any tragedy.
"Tony Stark!"
Price raised his head and looked at Iron Man not far in front of him, and even his voice trembled a little.
When he noticed that the reporter in the helicopter was really pointing the camera at him not far away, he was even more excited.
"You ......"
Tony slowly moved closer and looked at the man.
"You're so fat, how did you climb to such a high place?"
"......" Price took a deep breath, trying to suppress the anger in his heart, and deliberately lowered his voice, "Don't you remember me?" Tony stark! I'm Price! β
The reporter next to him suddenly became a little excited.
This is targeted retaliation, and there is definitely an insider.
"I'm sorry, but we shouldn't have seen it." Tony spun around in his head, completely unimpressed, "Honestly, your size, if we've seen it, we should remember it well." β
"How could you possibly forget me!" Price suddenly roared, "I've emailed you, I've written to you!" I said it would make you regret it! Regret taking my most precious Mary? β
"Waitβ"
Tony stretched out his hand and interrupted the other.
"What do you say I have taken from you? Mary? What's that, your favorite toy? β
"Don't play stupid here!" Price raised his voice, and the words appeared word for word on all the TV, "You cheated on my favorite girlfriend!" Tricked her into bed! I swore I would make you regret it! β
Poof-
I don't know how many viewers who were drinking water in front of the TV squirted water.
Shen He's eyes were also round.
Is this thing a green hat for everyone to see?
Tony's expression was even more uncomfortable.
As a playboy, he has slept with countless women, so naturally he has no virgin complex, but when he thinks that one of them will be the girlfriend of this big fat man, he has an indescribable ......
"Looks like you've remembered." Price took Tony's silence as acquiescence and smug expression, "Now, get out of the armor!" Get down before me, and I will show Mary that you are on your knees before me, the Lord of Fire! Then she will change her mind and will come back to me! β
"......" Tony didn't know what to say anymore.
As a billionaire, a playboy, and a lot of women, he really can't understand the behavior and mentality of the other party.
"Dude." Tony raised his palm and aimed at the other party, "Although I don't know who Mary you are talking about, but I regret it very, very much for sleeping with your woman, really, but for now, please honestly give up resistance." β
"Looks like you're not messing with the situation."
Anger welled up in Price's heart, and the flames around him suddenly flew.
"Now, I'll give you one last chance! On your knees! Or do you not care about the lives of those workers at all? β
"No, of course I do." Tony suddenly turned his head, "River, how long do you still want to see my jokes?" β
The camera immediately shifted to the direction Tony was looking at, zooming in, and three people in black hooded robes were standing on the rooftop hill of a certain building.
Among them, only Shen He's hood was not on, and a young Chinese face appeared in the TV camera.
"Let's go over." Shen He whispered.
In the next moment, the figures of three people suddenly appeared beside Tony, quietly suspended in midair.
This supernatural change made many people in front of the TV scream.
They quickly recognized that one of them was the Hooded Woman.
These three men were members of the Chaldeans!
Preston was vigilant.
But looking at the flames around him, and at the workers holding hostages below, he was filled with confidence again and spat on the ground.
"What Chaldeans, but just Tony's lackey!"
Shen He frowned.
But he soon calmed down, and he was more serious than such a person.
"Tony though is a playboy, a public enemy of men." Shen He said slowly, "But he will never do such a thing as robbing someone else's girlfriend, of course, this has nothing to do with us, we will limit your ability, and then send you to the police station, you will face multiple major crime charges." β
"Criminal charges?" Price sneered and raised his hands, "Now, I'm in charge here!" β
And thenβ
Nothing happened.
He raised his hands vigorously again, but the hovering fire dragon around him did not change at all, no, it can't be said that there is no change, but the surging momentum is trapped by an invisible force.
Everyone noticed the difference, because Qi Mu Nanxiong, who was standing behind Shen He, also stretched out his hand.
"Here......" Shen He exhaled, "it should be us who have the final say." β
At the moment when the words fell, Saiki Kusuo's palm moved, and the wind howled.
All the flames swirled with the wind, and even the audience in front of the television could easily hear the whistling wind, the flames were completely out of Price's control, because there was a stronger force guiding them, and then under Price's incredulous gaze, they swirled and flew up, forming a huge vortex of flames that rushed upwards, and then gradually dissipated, and even the clouds in the night sky were illuminated by this light.
The whole picture looks as if it has been specially processed with special effects.
"Tony, he'll leave it to you."
Shen He shook his head, and the figures of several people disappeared abruptly again.
If it weren't for the construction sites that had already returned to normal, it would be as if they had never been there.
But it is such a simple and chic gesture that highlights the powerful mystery of the Chaldeans.
The tone has been set, and although the controversy will continue, the Chaldeans just need to do what they are supposed to do according to the tone.
It was only by the time of the Battle of New York that the Chaldeans' prestige was at its peak.
