Chapter 159: Iron Will
Although some of the employees of the umbrella company who traveled back and forth between the two places had heard that the situation of Marvel was not optimistic, when they were really on the front line of the war, they could feel the shock that words could not bear.
Skimming off the blue energy shield, the sky over New York was still shrouded in gunsmoke, and the sound of gunfire came over and over again like a wave of ups and downs.
Duncan, who was standing still, ignored him, and he could only use his mobile phone to connect to the system and call a special operations soldier who was resting.
After a while, no special operations soldier wearing a Guardian suit appeared, his eyes bloodshot and his face haggard, but he still straightened his back and saluted when he saw Duncan.
"Sir!"
"It's hard work...... Duncan patted the soldier on the shoulder and said, "There will be troops to replace you in the future, and you can have a good rest after that." ”
The soldier did not answer immediately, and looked very hesitant.
Duncan saw this performance, and he took the initiative to ask, "Do you have any concerns and thoughts?" Speak out out soldier, you have the right to give your opinion. ”
"Yes!" The soldier was shocked by Duncan's words, and after the tiger's body was shocked, he said with a firm expression: "The war here is not over, I can continue to hold on!" ”
Duncan didn't go any further, nodded, and motioned for him to lead the way.
They bypassed the warehouse, passed through the tents in various places, and came to the construction site where the work was in full swing.
After a month of construction, less than 10% of the progress of the United States' hundreds of billions of large orders has been completed.
The Umbrella Company's engineering team only dug down 240 meters of open space on the outside of the warehouse, and built the first and second floors, which have now been turned into equipment maintenance workshops and special weapons storage workshops, with multiple underground railroad tracks leading to the outside of the camp.
At all times, the wounded and damaged equipment were brought back from outside the tracks, repaired and then put into battle, and the wounded outside were brought back to the camp from the tracks for treatment.
Both Duncan and Alice walked on the stairs, and the elevators were basically overloaded during wartime, and the soldiers who stayed in the rear to rest did not use their full strength.
The slide down is fast, it's not urgent, and they don't force the privilege to occupy the elevator.
The maintenance workshop on the first floor of the underground base is filled with a strong smell of engine oil and gunsmoke, and there are many improved AMP mechs for maintenance here.
These improved AMP mechs are mainly produced in the Marvel world, and Pepper applied for the manufacturing technology of the mecha to assist Marvel's anti-invasion war, and after Duncan's consent, it was emasculated by Tony and improved into the production line of the Marvel world.
This small individual mecha greatly improves the soldier's individual combat ability, and the large number of weapons carried can provide exaggerated fire support for small battlefields, and there are few disadvantages except for the cost.
This mecha technology has also been shared throughout Marvel Earth, and countries with supporting technology have been given a blueprint to enrich their individual combat capabilities and urban street combat capabilities.
After overcoming a large number of metal parts and debris, Duncan and Alice arrived at a room separated by opaque glass, which was the lounge for the members of the Avengers.
The door was unguarded, apparently dismantled from a certain building, and the door was left open, allowing those who approached to smell coffee other than the smell of engine oil, and black coffee, without milk and sugar, tasted no better than the most bitter Chinese medicine.
The lounge is also very simple, except for the hologram sand table in the center of the room, one box after another is stacked haphazardly.
People, naturally, there are.
Two eyes came from the corner of the lounge, making Duncan, who had just entered the lounge, feel a little strange.
He saw Steve, with his face all blackened, and Tony in his armor.
The two of them looked very embarrassed, Steve's suit had many scorched black marks, his handsome blonde hair stained with sweat and scattered down, sitting on a box, the four fingers of his hands formed a triangle with his thumb, jamming the rounded edge of the shield, so that the vibranium shield with a completely scratched red and blue paint surface stood in front of his crotch.
Even in the break room, Tony didn't take off his armor, the golden-red paint of the armor was worse than Steve's shield, and he sat on the metal box, the visor of the armor opened to reveal his face that was still clean but wet with sweat.
A few curls of hair fell to his eyebrows, his elbows were propped up on his knees, and the old inertia in his lowered brow was completely gone, and even when he saw Duncan, he did not speak in the usual relaxed tone, but said a little tiredly, "Here you are." ”
Duncan nodded slightly, stepped forward and casually found a box to sit with the two of them, and asked, "What has become of this place lately?" ”
Even without asking the question, he could have imagined that the situation must not be optimistic, and if it was easy, it would not make Tony the Iron Tony.
Now sitting next to Tony, there is a sense of oppression sitting next to the veteran.
Steve lowered his head, and his tone was heavier than ever: "Very bad, after you left, Thanos appeared. ”
"Look......" Tony didn't seem to have that much strength to explain, and just asked Jarvis to release the hologram.
The image on the hologram sand table disappeared, replaced by a huge purple potato head, Thanos's big face appeared, he spoke fluent English, his gaze penetrated the space, and narrated: "The meaningless struggle will only make you lose more lives, people of Earth, I have enough time and patience, I hope you have it too." ”
There is only such a brief picture in the picture, and then it shows the scene in space, constantly flashing out of hyperspace and diving towards the Earth at great speed, spraying the delivery pod and missiles into the Earth like a seahorse cub in the process.
Before the ring-shaped spacecraft entered the atmosphere, a colorful golden light soon broke into the picture from the corner of the field of vision, piercing the ring-shaped spacecraft and disappearing on the other side of the field of vision.
Tony explained, mockingly, "That's Carol, the strongest superhero Fury has ever said, she flies 20 hours a day and destroys most of the ships. ”
“……”
Duncan didn't comment on this, Carol physically traveled across the universe, flying at an exaggerated speed, and was indeed too strong, although there was still nothing he could do about the invasion of Earth......
After destroying the Ring Ship on this side of the Earth, another Ring Ship will appear from the other side of the Earth and drop a large number of missiles and delivery pods on the Earth, causing serious damage to many countries on the Earth.
These missiles and delivery pods will be stopped by anti-aircraft missiles and Kama Taj mages when they are close to human habitation, and they will be powerless when they fall into the no-man's land......
