Chapter 70: The Knight

Eventually, the Empire State Building crashed into a slightly lower building along the side.

The extremely dull crashing sound came, and the huge volume rolled up the wild hunting wind, blowing the ground fungus blanket and swaying.

Tens of millions of tons of debris fell on the streets of Manhattan, and a great high-rise building symbolizing the spirit of America collapsed, how similar to the terrible disaster more than ten years ago!

There was a dead silence on the Helicarrier, and someone looked at the huge pillar of smoke rising in the center of the city and asked timidly, "... Is it over? ”

"Quite the opposite."

Li Ang smiled and replied loudly: "Look carefully, the best is still to come." ”

The smoke cleared, the dust settled, and dozens of helicopter gunships hovered in mid-air, sweeping their searchlights towards the overturned Empire State Building.

"How is that possible?!"

Director Nick Fury stood abruptly and stared at the screen, his eyes split.

In the picture, around Fifth Avenue in Manhattan, the tall buildings that have been completely covered in the fungus carpet sway and sway, like pious believers kneeling, capsizing and collapsing in the direction of the Empire State Building.

Rockefeller Center, World Trade Center, Stark Building....

The best of these towers crumbled to the ground, and immeasurable pieces of rubble were ingested in the fungus blanket, wriggling, carrying, and moving toward the Empire State Building.

The rubble, which was the wreck of Manhattan, was integrated and slowly gathered under the control of the fungus blanket, erecting a new building at a rapid pace.

There is no need for a so-called foundation, and the fungus blanket that is rooted in New York's vast underground facilities and stretches for hundreds of kilometers is the best support itself.

Captain America looked up and whispered, "Oh God...."

It was a towering tower of eerie heights, with scaly rubble embedded in the outer side, and through the cracks in the rock, you could see the fibrous clumps of fungus that served as a supporting skeleton.

Every minute of the day, the tower is being built and climbed.

Four hundred meters, six hundred meters, eight hundred meters, the so-called high-rise construction speed of human beings is not worth mentioning in front of the fungus carpet, and the extremely strange but exuding harmonious beauty of the strain creation stands in the center of the world, overlooking the human beings as small as dust below.

The strain tree, which had been nearly severed, was re-erected, and the Kabbalah Wood of Life, which was even taller than before, was restored to its original state, high on the top of the tower, quiet and peaceful.

"This is the real Tower of Babel."

Li Ang looked at the rising tower in the center of the picture with great interest, and said softly: "Then, it's time for the builder himself to appear..."

As if in response to Leon's words, the Kabbalah Tree of Life was lit.

The whole strain tree emits a faint and warm light, which is extremely dazzling in the vast night.

On the outer edge of the city, New Yorkers, who were suffering from burning hearts and lungs, rose from the ground.

The men's chests were already stained with a layer of blue and purple, and the growing fungus blanket ravaged them like maggots on tarsal bones.

Until this incident, the crowd bathed in the shimmer of Kabbalah suddenly noticed that the intense pain gradually subsided, and the brain gradually gained clarity.

There was a voice, a warm and calm female voice, whispering in their ears.

"And it came to pass, when I saw the Lamb open the first of the seven seals, that I heard one of the four living creatures with a voice like thunder, saying, Come."

People's eyes gradually became confused, and they all followed the female voice, repeating the words of the "Bible Revelation".

"Then I looked, and behold, there was a white horse, and he that sat on it had a bow and a crown was given to him."

The crowd continued to follow, and the chanting sounded in unison, converging into an ocean.

At the top of the tower, the trunk of the Kabbalah Tree of Life, which was small because of its distance, slowly cracked.

Emerging from the center of the trunk was a humanoid with a white glow, the silhouette of which was faintly recognizable as a woman.

She carries a bow and arrows and wears a crown, both of which symbolize conquest, and white symbolizes divine rebellion.

There is no doubt that she is the plague among the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

All eyes were on her.

The woman who had come out of the tree of life looked down at the ruined ruins below, and whispered, "And she will come out, and she will win and win." ”

"And she came out, and she prevailed, and she triumphed."

One, two, millions of New Yorkers involuntarily fell to their knees, facing in the direction of the Tower of Babel, chanting these words feverishly.

The strains within these groups continued to expand, and the bruising purple gradually spread over every inch of their skin, while the expression on their faces became gentler.

It's like dying.

"Damn! Damn it! ”

Tony Stark watched this happen, but couldn't stop it.

The soles of his steel suit erupted with flames, and he wanted to fly up and confront the so-called "plague" face to face, but Director Nick Fury's voice came from the headset, "Stay there!" Stark! That's an order! ”

"you-mom-order!"

Stark roared in disarray, the Ark reactor in his chest running majestically, pumping endless amounts of energy to his feet.

"Calm down! Tony. ”

Captain America pressed Stark's shoulder hard, and the sudden burst of force even temporarily overwhelmed Iron Man, leaving him on the ground.

Outside New York Bay, the captains of the ships who had received orders from Washington nodded, pressed the button, and said to the radio: "Let's go." ”

On the deck of the aircraft carrier, the fighter planes that needed to use "100 million US dollars" as a price unit slowly sailed out and rushed into the sky.

The fighters flew over Manhattan and hurled a weapon called napalm at the Tower of Babel.

The Avengers looked up at the tail flames dragged by the plane, and watched the barreled bombs explode as soon as they touched the Babel tower.

The mixture of naphthenic acid and fatty acid aluminium soap, which is mixed with gasoline as a thickener, produces a colloidal combust that is so terrible that immediately after the explosion a layer of flame is formed and splashes around the tower.

The flame formed a high temperature of thousands of degrees, and the fungus blanket that came into direct contact with the combustionant was directly ablated and melted, and even the liquid toxins contained in it were directly killed by the high temperature.

The swarm of spores that obscured the view like a thick fog was engulfed by the fire demon, the scorching air twisted and rose, and the black smoke burned the towers towering from the bottom up.

"The Tower of Babel? The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse? ”

In the Washington underground, Secretary of State Walter Holland sneered at the corner of his mouth.

He turned his head and said to the Latino boss with an equally gloomy face, "This kind of freak plays with something that is worthless under modern weapons!" It's all rubbish! Bullshit! ”

And Nick Fury, who was far away in the Helicarrier, quietly tugged at his somewhat tight neckline twice, staring intently at the tragic picture on the screen.

The colloidal combustion emitted by napalm bombs will firmly adhere to the tower, like the thickest lard paste, and it will not peel off at all.

Moreover, these colloidal combustion agents will continue to drip down the cracks on the outside of the Tower of Babel and into the inside of the tower, causing a devastating blow to the fungus blanket supporting the tower.

In just a few minutes, hundreds of fighter sorties flew by, and the napalm dropped almost submerged the tall tower.

The Plague Knight, standing at the top of the crumbling tower, watched indifferently as it all happened.

Raging flames from the human world climbed, melting steel bars, scorching black rocks, and destroying a network of root strains.

The fighter groups are coming and going, and the aircraft carriers on the sea level are like base stations, dispatching the war machines of the number one military power on the blue planet.

This is the power of man, and this is the power that is enough to provoke God.

The Plague Knight tilted his head, and a sigh rang in the ears of 8 million New Yorkers, as sacred as heaven.

Suddenly, she raised the bow.
