Chapter 137: The Great War Begins
When everything was ready, Jo Lu took the new Avengers and prepared to head to the heart of New York City, more precisely, Stark Tower.
At this time, Loki can already be seen standing in the sky pavilion of the mansion, quietly enjoying the last quiet time before the great war.
On the roof above him, the teleporter loaded with the Cosmic Cube was running slowly, gathering energy to teleport the Zetarian fleet.
Above Earth's orbit, the Dark Star is passing through the Earth's atmosphere in preparation for landfall in downtown New York.
Everything was ready, and Loki just had to wait for his army to arrive in New York.
At this time, Qiao Lu also piloted the Kun fighter to the roof of the Stark Tower, as he knew, the Cosmic Cube had been successfully activated and self-renewing, and all external forces except Loki's Scepter could not stop it from running.
These were all part of the plan, after all, the system had already reminded him from the beginning that it was useless to just get the Cosmic Rubik's Cube without destroying the Zetarian fleet.
And the best chance to annihilate them is the moment when they are teleported by the Cosmic Rubik's Cube. Otherwise, if you have to wander the earth and take the initiative to attack and trouble the Zetarians, it will be really troublesome.
Therefore, Qiao Lu said almost nothing, just sent the Avengers to Stark Tower.
Tony was the first to land on the roof of his mansion wearing the damaged half of the Iron Man suit, and said to Dr. Servig of S.H.I.E.L.D., who was helping Loki on the roof:
"Doctor, turn it off. You are violating private territory. ”
"It's too late, the machine can't be stopped." Dr. Servig replied, "Aren't you curious that it will show us a new universe?" ”
"Whatever you want."
Tony lifted the last pulse laser cannon left on his armor and slammed into the teleporter that set up the Cosmic Rubik's Cube.
However, at the moment when the pulsed laser was about to hit the machine, a blue transparent barrier blocked the attack, and even bounced back.
Fortunately, Tony has now been modified by the Desperate Virus, and he can use his body to carry the pulse laser cannon that bounces back.
At the cost of losing a few more parts of his Iron Man suit, the armor-covered part is now only one hand and one leg.
Captain America also hurriedly jumped down and asked with concern, "Tony, are you okay?" ”
"I'm fine." Tony's injuries were quickly healed by the Desperate Virus, and now he is not just flesh and blood even if he takes off his suit.
"That thing is protected by its own energy, and there is little way to break that barrier."
"I can see it."
Loki looked at the Avengers with a wicked smile on his face from the hanging garden below, and now he was so sure that he didn't know how to lose.
He raised his head and pointed to the sky and said, "Even if you can stop the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, you can't resist the landing of the Dark Star. I have an endless army at my disposal, and what do you have? ”
Everyone looked up, and sure enough, they saw a small square black dot in the sky, which was a dark star that was about to enter the earth's atmosphere.
Since Ronan didn't and didn't bother to hide his whereabouts, the arrival of the Darkstar was no secret.
Tony said disapprehantly, "That thing has been targeted for a long time, do you think our government is vegetarian?" ”
As Tony said, since the Dark Star entered US airspace, it was natural that it would be warmly welcomed by the US government first.
In an instant, dozens of nuclear bombs were fired from various military bases, all aimed at the Dark Star in the sky, and roared away.
In the face of so many incoming nuclear missiles, Ronan did not show the slightest panic, and still sat firmly on his throne on the bridge, not even needing to wear a seat belt.
In an instant, the Dark Star was submerged in dozens of rapidly expanding nuclear fireballs, and the humans in the Marvel Universe sacrificed their ultimate weapons as soon as they came up, and there was really no need to spare their hands against the alien invaders.
What's more, this is not the first time that the U.S. government in this world has encountered alien aggression, and of course it knows that hesitation will lead to defeat.
Watching the small black dot in the sky representing the dark star turn into a huge fireball, the people inside the US military base could not help but burst into cheers, including the US president, who authorized the launch of the nuclear bomb, and everyone was very satisfied with this decisive action.
The United States can again declare that they have successfully defended the planet and saved the lives of all mankind!
What a day to remember!
On the Stark Tower, Tony also said proudly, "Look, your army is gone." ”
Unexpectedly, Loki sneered and said, "You guys are overestimating yourself." ”
In the next second, the smiles on the faces of the cheering crowd froze, and the American president, who was thinking about how to deliver a victory speech, suddenly turned pale.
After the nuclear fireball gradually dissipated, the Dark Star emerged unscathed, leaving not even a scratch on the hull.
The unmanned reconnaissance aircraft at high altitude sent back the last photos, from which it can be clearly seen that the fireball generated by the explosion of the nuclear bomb was stopped by a transparent barrier, and did not touch the Dark Star itself, let alone cause any damage.
Unlike the RDA's Startup Star, the Dark Star is an interstellar warship in its own right, and of course there will be such a thing as an energy shield.
In front of such a large starship, the nuclear bomb is just a common high-explosive bomb, no matter how powerful the explosion is, it is impossible to hurt the Dark Star itself without any penetration, and the impact of the explosion will only be completely blocked by the energy shield.
The only threats to the Dark Star are the ground-based defensive cannons used specifically for anti-ship operations, or the capital naval guns of an equal or higher level star-fighting ship.
Otherwise, the only way to do this is the bloody tactic of having the small fighter pass through the energy shield at low speed and force the boarding operation.
And that's not something that the U.S. government on Earth can do alone.
Qiao Lu on the Kun fighter shook his head and said, "Tony, your government is really vegetarian, and I am not surprised to eat even more disgusting things. ”
"It seems that we are on our own." Tony also said helplessly.
He also knows that the last big move of the US government is to wash the ground with a nuclear bomb, and if it has no effect after washing, it will be completely useless.
I am afraid that the President of the United States has just torn up his victory speech and is secretly drawing up a surrender agreement with his cabinet.
That's always how their government has always been, and there's no way around it.
"Then let's play for us!" Thor, the god of thunder, with a body of thunder, also descended on the battlefield of New York.
This battle in New York has officially opened!
