Chapter 1424: The Old Days Return (23)
The sky over Helheim has always been shrouded in thick dark clouds, and the sky has been very clear under the force of the thunderstorm, but this time these clouds are actually man-made obstacles.
Hidden behind the dark clouds is the outpost of this operation, of course, if you just go down to fight with your fists, you don't need any base, and it doesn't have to be built in the underworld, but the role of this base is not just to garrison troops, its biggest role is still scientific research.
"Alena, how's the portal expanding? Do you need to give another unit of energy? Standing in front of a mirror, Strange turned around and shouted, and the other archmage who was standing in front of the window and infused the M'kraan crystal with energy, shouted, "Two and a half units of energy are needed, when is Peter coming?" ”
"I'm coming! I'm coming! At the end of the hallway, Peter Parker hurried over, wearing glasses and carrying a school bag, looking like a high school student who had just finished school, but he had actually arrived from Stark's state-of-the-art laboratory.
As he ran, he took out a paper from his bag, brandished the paper and said to the mage, "Don't rush to give energy just yet, let me put the device down." ”
"Hurry, hurry, hurry!" Peter shouted to the robots behind him, "Take a reading of the neighborhood before deploying the device." ”
Seeing the robot flying down in order, Peter quickened his pace and came to Strange's side, Strange handed him a glass of water, Peter gasped a few times and said, "Kama Taj's monitoring and recording device is too backward to leave such valuable data unattended." ”
Strange smiled at him and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Peter, you also know that the technology of large portals is not achieved overnight, and we are very lucky to have a large portal like the M'kraan crystal that connects the two universes for us to study, by the way, have you read some of the technical information that the Demon Girl got back from the Xia Empire?" ”
"Of course." Peter and Strange walked out of the room together, and said, "It was with these techniques that I wrote a paper on portals and transverse passages, oh, by the way, I'll have to go down and collect some field information later, how about the next situation?" ”
Strange stopped, looked at Peter with a serious face, and said, "What information are you going to go down to collect on the spot?" Peter, I'm not talking about you, you should also know how important you are, if something happens to me, Tony and I won't be done! ”
"I was about to ask, where did Tony go?" Peter asked, confused.
"Who knows." Strange shrugged his shoulders and said, "I called the Stark Group that day and Pepper answered it, and she said that Tony answered the phone that day and ran out in a hurry, I don't know where to go, but you don't have to worry about him, let's talk about yourself." ”
"I'm not going to the front, I'm going to go behind the M'kraan crystal and see how its energy is condensed, what I see with my own eyes is not a substitute for paper data."
Strange hesitated, but said, "Okay, you can go down, but I'll have to get those mutants to go down with you, or it's too dangerous." ”
Peter spread out his hands and was noncommittal, then scratched his head, as if suddenly remembered something, and said, "Then you must explain to them, don't touch my equipment, that's important." ”
After a while, the mutants were ready, and when they heard that Peter was going to study the M'kraan Crystal, they were much more active than Strange, and Magneto, Phoenix, and Flicker accompanied Peter down.
Peter had been to the Andromeda Galaxy for a while before, and got along well with the mutants, Peter and Flickering walked out while chatting about the university, and when they got to the outside of the base, they looked down through the dark clouds, Peter sighed and said, "It's really messy down there, I've never seen so many skeletons in my life." ”
"Who isn't?" Jean Grey walked up, smiled and patted Peter's shoulder, looked back at Magneto, who was still serious, and shook his head, Magneto waved his hand slightly, and several people floated up, flying towards the M'Kraan crystal that was still spitting out superhero monsters.
At this time, in the battlefield, the superhero monsters who are constantly dying and resurrecting are becoming more and more irritable.
The monster Captain America threw his shield with all his might, and the shield cut through a beautiful arc and broke the leg bones of four or five skeletons, and at the same time knocked them away, scattering the skeletons of bones all over the ground, and in less than a second, they reformed four or five skeletons, and then continued to surround Captain America.
The monster Iron Man flew in mid-air and bombarded indiscriminately, and the skeletons on the ground had nothing to do with him, but the skeleton army also had air combat units, in addition to some skeleton birds that resembled prehistoric giant eagles, there were also skeleton winged dragons, shadow crows summoned by skeleton mages and endless magic missiles, causing his flight path to be interfered with all the time.
The suit worn by the monster Iron Man is not advanced, and it is even a single digit in the number of the Mark series, and it has not developed the army of steel suits in the later period, but he has brought a lot of ammunition, but unfortunately this thing is of little use to skeletons.
The situation of Spider-Man is even worse, the Spider-Man of this world is a street hero, if the strength and agility are indeed among the best, the spider sense can still be used, but in the face of this crowd tactic is really useless.
"Thor, when the hell are they coming?" The monster Iron Man roared, "We need a massive attack to smash these skeletons!" ”
"He'll be there soon!!" Monster Captain America shouted.
"Hurry up, I'm going to die again!" Monster Spider-Man let out a wail, and there were at least five or six skeleton swordsmen around him, and it was really overwhelming.
Spider-Man bent over, dodging a shield that came over, the spider sensed wildly, he quickly rolled on the spot, dodged the skeletal swordsman's kick, and blurted out a roar, he punched the shield in front of him, and when he looked up, he saw several figures swaggering through the air.
"It's their people...... Fast! Hurry up and infect Magneto!! …… Wait, who's that? Peter parker? Spider-Man let out an exclamation, then gritted his teeth and shouted, "This damn coward!! I'm going to tear him apart with my own hands!! ”
Peter, who was flying in mid-air, watched with great interest the scene below, his eyes constantly searching for the figures of some acquaintances, and sure enough, in the midst of a group of skeletons, he found the golden and red figure.
"Are they still saved?" Peter asked a little hesitantly, even though he knew that the superheroes of this universe had completely turned into monsters, his conscience still made him feel sad when he saw his friends who had turned into monsters.
"I'm afraid it's hard, Peter." Jean Grey patted Peter on the shoulder, shook his head, and said, "This madness is very polluting, we have to ensure our own safety first, and soulless undead warriors are just one of the means." ”
"Okay, but I still feel a little weird."
"Of course, I understand your sadness." Jean Grey stepped forward to comfort Peter, but Peter shook his head, frowned, and said, "No, that's not what I mean, don't you think they're a little ...... Weak? ”
Peter crossed his arms and watched carefully for a while, at this time, the golden and red monster Iron Man was dodging the skeleton units flying in mid-air, charging his hand cannon, and then seizing the opportunity to launch missiles to blow up several skeletons.
Peter showed an extremely confused look and said, "What the hell is this Iron Man doing?" What about the compressed EMP generator in his left arm? At this time, when to use the floor scrubbing without electromagnetic weapons? What the hell is he bombing??? ”
Grey followed Peter's gaze and looked down, although she really didn't understand mechanics, and she didn't know much about modern warfare, but she could also see that the missile's efficiency against these skeleton racks was not high enough, and the explosion could indeed blow up the skeleton warriors, but it couldn't completely destroy the bones, and many of the skeletons that were blown out were condensed and formed in mid-air, which was equivalent to being busy for half a day.
"Maybe the Iron Man of their universe didn't come up with such a thing." Flicker speculated.
"But what about his flight trajectory?" Peter was still puzzled, and said, "It's as fast as a computer in a university computer room...... Wait a minute, is he manually controlling the mech? What about Jarvis? ”
"The information sent back by Riley said that this kind of madness could not infect machines, and in the beginning, there were many robots that formed a resistance army, so they didn't trust any intelligent life at all, and the intelligent life in their universe seemed to have been almost wiped out." Jean Grey explained.
"Isn't this a self-defeating martial arts?" Peter shook his head and stopped talking.
Soon, they flew to the place close to the M'Kraan crystal portal, and the intelligent robots that Peter had put down earlier were already flying around to monitor the data, but because they had stealth functions, the monster superheroes who were busy fighting didn't notice it at all.
Peter needed a place to stay, so he manipulated two robots to appear and began to build the platform, and soon, a small metal platform was suspended at the top of the portal, and after Peter landed on the platform, he first unfolded his shield, and then began to put on his outer equipment.
Now most of the equipment related to the construction of the Mercury base has been compressed, and Peter has stuffed all the compressed equipment into the business card holder, and when needed, he can just look for it like a business card.
"I think I might need a pair of goggles and then a vision shifter...... The light is a bit strong, and the masking device should be the same. ”
Peter tossed his business card as he muttered, and soon, several small devices were on top of the platform, and several mutants didn't know much about technology, just guarding around the platform to keep Peter safe.
After observing for a short time, Peter raised his head and said, "I want to observe the two energy nodes at the bottom, is that okay?" ”
"Avoid approaching them." Magneto's tone still didn't fluctuate, but he could hear a little worry about him, and Flicker immediately added, "Riley gave us information that looking them in the eye would make you crazy, so we set up the outpost very high, and it would be bad if it was controlled. ”
"I'll just go down for a while, take a look and leave, can't I?" Peter further said, he hesitated, but still said, "Well, we don't land, we just float in the air about ten meters above the ground, it's a bit too high here, I can't see anything clearly." ”
Jean Grey tried to persuade her, but Magneto waved his hand slightly, and the metal platform slowly descended, and more and more superhero monsters below began to become excited.
They're really fed up with this bunch of skeletons that don't die or go crazy, and they want fresh flesh and more madness.
And the most urgent and thirsty of them all is the monster Spider-Man, who vows to infect himself in another universe first, and then tear him apart with his own hands, and his mind is full of crazy and violent thoughts that he has no time to care.
Peter was crouching next to the instrument, observing the flow of energy through a special field of vision, when a figure suddenly flashed in the afterglow of his vision.
Peter straightened up and looked into the distance, and then saw the familiar red and blue figure crashing into him in a very violent manner.
"Spider-Man?" Peter's eyes narrowed, and then he realized that this isotope of the other universe seemed to be coming for him.
Peter wanted to stand up and roll up his sleeves, but soon felt that he was being pressed in place by the magnetic field, and Magneto gave him an indifferent look, his eyes probably saying "You continue".
Magneto's black cloak flew as he stretched out his hands and lifted them slightly, and within a few kilometers of the surrounding area, the countless metal weapons used by the skeletons all vibrated and flew here from all directions.
As soon as the monster Spider-Man took off into the air and rushed towards here, he felt something more under his feet, and when he looked down, he found that it was a steel runway formed by countless weapons squeezed together.
He sped forward, trying to jump over the front of the runway before it had yet to solidify, but soon, the runway bent upwards until it turned into a circle - yes, Magneto had built a hamster running wheel.
Watching the monster Spider-Man run faster and faster in the running wheel, until he finally lost his breath and gritted his teeth and continued to run, Peter slapped his head on the door, and it was more impactful to see another self make a fool of himself than to watch other superheroes.
Just as Peter sighed and wanted to return his attention to the device, a private message suddenly appeared in the chat room in his head, the amazing Spider-Man from the main universe.
"Hey, Peter, thank you for the technology you provided before, we have stabilized the 'Cosmic Fault' for a while, but our universe has experienced too many wars and is already on the verge of the limit, I'm afraid that within a week, the crack of the Cosmic Fault will officially open."
"You said you had been invaded by that weird crazy universe, and that they were eyeing us, so do you have any good advice for us?"
"Oh, don't get me wrong, I didn't mean to ask you to help, but since you've already fought each other, I should be able to get some information from you about the enemy so that they don't get scrambling."
"I've heard that Endless Madness has strengthened their force, is that true?"
After listening to the private message, Peter looked up at the monster Spider-Man, who was already tired on the hamster running wheel and began to stick out his tongue, and said in a slightly hesitant tone:
"I don't know if the force is added or not, but their intelligence is indeed ...... It's a bit of a huddle. ”
