"Don't move!"

Pitch-black steel suits hung over the shelter, and Colonel James controlled the war machine to turn on all weapon systems and warn the grotesque people in front of the shelter.

As a member of the military, he also received orders from the Pentagon.

Even if, in James's heart, he does not agree with this approach of the military.

But as a soldier, James had to act as he was ordered.

"What's going on here? What kind of monster is this, Hulk? ”

Through the helmet of the armor, James looked at the scene of the Brotherhood of the Strange People in front of him, especially the giant in the shelter with a red skin that closely resembled the Hulk, which made James can't help but cry.

Didi Di Di –

However, just as James was on his guard against the shelter situation.

The steel suit on his body, and the unexpected sound of connection suddenly sounded in the war machine.

"Well, please wait."

Inside the war machine, a serious expression flashed across Colonel James's face.

"This is the ...... of the war machine"

But the call was connected.

"I need you to do something for me, James."

When the phone was answered, Tony's familiar voice rang out from inside the helmet of the war machine.

"Tony, I don't have time right now."

Hearing Tony's inexplicable request, James in the steel suit had a helpless smile on his face and swept all the replies in the shelter in front of him.

"What are you doing?"

Hearing James' answer, Tony asked without thinking.

"I'm ......"

Hearing his friend's inquiry, James subconsciously wanted to say his mission, but at the critical moment, he stopped his words and said, "Perform a confidential mission." ”

"In California?"

"You've put a locator inside my suit again!"

Hearing Tony lock his position so easily, James said speechlessly.

"I built the steel suit for you."

On the other side of the phone, Tony corrected James's words.

"I just need your account to determine some information, so, James, tell me the name of your account in the military."

Inside the Avengers Building, Tony said to the war machine with his eyes on the data on the screen in front of him.

"It's always been that account, Gears of War 68."

The situation in front of him was special, and James didn't have much energy to entangle with Tony, so he decisively informed the other party of his account.

"What about passwords?"

Avengers Mansion, hearing his friend's answer, Tony quickly entered the account name.

"Every time I get hacked by you, I have to change my password, Tony."

"It's not the '80s anymore, so, James, people don't use the outdated term 'black' anymore, tell me the password."

Although, Tony, who has mastered Ultron, can easily hack into the military's classified information without the need for a password.

However, out of respect for his friend, Tony still took a moment to ask for the password.

"The war machine is blowing up the sky, all in caps."

Under Tony's questioning, James sighed and immediately told the other party his shameful password.

"Haha......"

Sure enough, when he heard the password set by his friend, Tony, who had been keeping his eyes on the screen, couldn't help but laugh.

Faced with the laughter in his ears, James's expression was helpless.

Roar –

However, in the next moment, the roar from the shelter below him immediately drew the attention of the war machine.

"Alright, Tony, I still have a task to do."

Looking down at the shelter, James decisively hung up the call in his suit.

“……”

The Avengers Building, Tony listens to the end of contact inside the headset.

He couldn't help but frown at the roar of the war machine before it hung up, but before Tony could figure it out.

"Sir, I've found something."

Ultron opened up, drawing Tony's attention back again.

……

Inside the shelter, the Red Giant struggled to recover from his pause.

Waving his arms, the hot iron from his face and the pouring of hot iron into his body sent the Red Giant into a great frenzy.

Stretching out his thick palm, the red giant grabbed his neck, and in a painful roar, he forcibly tore the muscles on his neck apart, revealing a bloody throat with a large amount of hot molten iron flowing out of it, splashing on the ground and the red giant's body, solidifying into a dark red piece of iron.

Ho ho –

Because of the ripped throat, the red giant opened its mouth and could only let out a silent roar.

However, these injuries that were fatal to ordinary people were obviously not enough to kill the Red Giant.

Under the stimulation of the bloody wound, the anger in the red giant's heart began to surge, and the terrifying heat spread out from its body again, and under the influence of the high temperature, the iron pieces that adhered to the red giant's body began to melt, and the bloody wounds began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Like Hulk, the Red Giant that General Ross turned into also possesses the ability to regenerate himself with a level that is barely inferior to Logan's.

It is capable of regenerating General Ross's severed arm, as well as recovering from mortal wounds.

Roar –

Under the influence of the powerful regeneration ability, it only took a few tens of seconds for the red giant's originally scarred body to recover again.

He raised his head and let out a roar of rage, running in the direction of Charles and the others.

"Damn it!"

Recovering from the aftermath of the explosion, Eric looked at the angry Red Giant, a flash of anger in his eyes.

Waving his arms, he controlled more of the surrounding metal to fly in the direction of the red giant.

At first, the metal smashed into the red giant's body, and it was easily smashed out of the way, unable to hinder it in the slightest. However, with the increasing number of metals, a large number of metals were layered on top of each other, trapping the Red Giant's body in the center, and under the control of a large amount of metal, every movement of the Red Giant became extremely difficult.

Its roar was also obscured by the heavy stacking of metal.

"Logan, are you alright?"

In the wheelchair, Charles, who was protected by Logan, looked at Wolverine's bloody back and metallic bones, and said apologetically.

"Actually, you don't have to."

"If it weren't for the professor, I would still be a test subject in the hands of the doctor."

Gritting his teeth to support his body, Logan's bloody back recovering to scab at a speed visible to the naked eye.

He looked at Charles in a wheelchair and said slowly, while his eyes fell on the war machine in mid-air, grinning and clenching his fists, and his sharp claws stretched out.

"Although the situation is specific, if you can, please give up resistance."

Facing Logan's fierce gaze, James in the war machine sighed silently.

The weapons on the suit were firmly locked onto the grotesque people on the ground.

"I admire your courage to come to me in such a steel coffin."

With one hand controlling the surrounding metal, a steady stream of metal fell on the red giant to reinforce its block, and Eric's gaze swept over the war machine in mid-air, and he raised an eyebrow and said.

"What?!"

In the face of Eric's words, inside the war machine, James had a puzzled expression.

However, the next moment, he saw his palm made a gentle tug at him.

Immediately after, James felt his body being pulled downward by an invisible force.

The helmet of the steel suit flickered and emitted dangerous sirens, but the war machine, which had been in control, seemed to be completely unable to act according to James's orders.

[ ] Boom –

With a loud bang, the war machine smashed a huge crater into the ground.

There was a harsh metal grinding sound from the various parts of the suit, and it was obvious that the heavy blow had caused extremely serious damage to the steel suit.

Buzz –

"Ahem......"

Inside the war machine, James shook his head, the constant buzzing sound lingering in his head, and his consciousness was a little blurred, and he couldn't even control the steel suit on his body.

After a few seconds, as the groggy consciousness in his brain returned, James' confused consciousness was able to return to his body.

In his ears, the war machine kept blaring alarm bells.

Controlling the steel suit, he struggled to stand up, but in the next moment, the invisible force fell on the body of the war machine again, pressing James to the ground again and smashing the hole a little deeper.

This heavy blow also seemed to destroy the internal system of the war machine, and the vision inside James's helmet instantly fell into darkness.

Around the shelter, a large amount of metal and even the metal objects inside the shelter also fell on the red giant's body, forming a huge metal cage.

Eric dedicated a shred of strength and landed on top of the war machine, which had lost its resistance.

He flipped his palm slightly, and the war machine, which had been pressed to the ground and could not move, began to float.

Pull the palm of your hand and pull the war machine in front of you.

Eric snapped his fingers, and the helmet at the head of the war machine was lifted, revealing James' bloodied face underneath.

"It seems that the so-called superheroes are not all righteous."

Looking at James's blood-stained face, Eric had a look of disdain on his face.

He made a clenching motion at James inside the steel suit, and in the next moment, the war machine on James's body began to compress in the harsh friction sound.

"Ah......h

The compression and deformation of the entire steel armor, and the tremendous force it tried, made James inside the suit let out a scream of pain.

"Stop, Eric, if you continue to exert your power, it will kill the war machine."

Looking at the screaming James and the blood flowing from the inside of the war machine suit, Charles in the wheelchair had an unbearable expression on his face and stopped Eric.

"Stop!"

However, Charles's persuasion obviously stabbed Eric again.

He looked at James, who was already in a coma in severe pain in the war machine, and then turned his head to look at the red giant who was firmly fixed by metal but still struggling to dissipate heat and keep moving forward, and the expression on his face became extremely angry: "If you tell me to stop, then what about these guys, have they stopped against the grotesque." ”

"If it weren't for the fact that we sensed that something was wrong and rushed back to the shelter in time, it is very likely that the entire fraternity of freaks would have been exterminated by the military, and humanity has never given me a chance for the grotesque, so why should I give humanity a chance."

As Eric's words fell, he looked at James inside the war machine.

The outstretched palm should be clenched and crushed.

However, at this moment, Eric found that his fist-clenched palm suddenly lost control.

Immediately after that, the whole body also lost control.

As Eric's control of his body was lost, James, the war machine suspended in mid-air by the magnetic pull, fell to the ground.

Roar –

On the other side, the red giant, who was imprisoned by a large amount of metal, also roared angrily, broke free from the metal cage, and rushed towards Charles with a large amount of metal colliding.

Facing the menacing Red Giant, Logan gritted his teeth, ignoring the fact that he had been torn in half by the opponent in the previous battle, and stood up in front of him again.

However, the battle between Wolverine and the Red Giant is about to break out again.

The angry Red Giant's body was firmly fixed in front of him again, motionless.

And Eric's body, which had lost control, recovered.

"Looks like you've made your decision, Charles."

Regaining control of his body, Eric glanced down at his palm.

He looked up and landed on the Red Giant, who was close at hand, and then moved to Charles in a wheelchair.

Clenched his fists and said to Charles.

"Even so, do you still choose to be human, Charles?"

“……”

In the face of Eric's questioning, Charles's face showed a silent expression.

"Grotesque people cannot live alone from humans, and we will always be human."

In silence, Charles gave his own answer.

"I can perceive that there is goodwill for grotesques in this world, but this kindness has been suppressed for the time being, and one day humans will understand grotesque people and live peacefully with us."

"Since it's your decision, then I don't have anything more to say, Charles."

The answer given by Charles was clearly not what Eric wanted.

His gaze swept one last over the shelter behind him, and the Red Giant.

"I'm not as naïve as you, Charles, the reason why humans treat grotesques like this is because they are afraid, afraid of the power of grotesques, afraid that grotesques will replace them, since they are afraid, then I want them to understand that grotesque people don't need to be afraid of humans, because we are the powerful side, what should really be feared is human beings and not grotesque people, and grotesque people are the future of this world!"
