Chapter 345: The Avengers' Weakness
The artifact has a spirit, and the storm tomahawk is especially a temper, and will even eat Thor's vinegar because of Thor's feelings for Thor's hammer. Therefore, even if he was carried in his hand by Ebony Throat, the Storm Tomahawk would not be used by him, but instead broke out into a thunderstorm, which made Ebony Throat suffer a hard blow.
A bolt of lightning burst from the storm axe's body and hit Ebony Throat's body, causing green smoke to rise from Ebony Throat's head, and his whole body was entangled in electric light, and he could no longer hold the Storm Tomahawk.
The Storm Tomahawk flew out of his hand and returned to Thor's hands once more.
"Haha......" Thor was so proud that he pointed his axe at the ebony throat and laughed loudly, mocking, "Noseless ugly ghost, my axe is not something you can touch!" ”
"Humph!" Ebony Throat was also furious, and with a wave of his finger, Professor Hulk, who had just gotten up, slammed into the storm tomahawk again.
It doesn't matter if the axe is disobedient, it's okay to use someone to hit the axe. The action of force is mutual, actively slashing people and passive slashing people, and in terms of results, there is not much difference.
Professor Hulk was so embarrassed that he was smashed by Ebony Throat as a weapon, but Thor didn't dare to use the Storm Tomahawk to block it, and the end result was that he was swept away.
Professor Hulk was flung around in the air, roaring and clutching his hands. Although he also wanted to change this status quo, as a pure warrior, he couldn't exert his strength at all when his feet were off the ground, and it was impossible to break free from the telekinesis control of the ebony throat. And being in the center of the battlefield, the surroundings were empty, and there was not even a point of focus, he tried many times in a row, trying to get out, but in the end he failed.
As he is now, Professor Hulk realizes that his existence is a complete burden and wants to withdraw from the battlefield, but the problem is that if he wants to leave, he has to agree to it.
The reason why Professor Hulk was able to free himself from the ranks of guarding the wounded was completely caused by Ebony Throat ordering his subordinates to relax their attacks, just to get a meat shield, how could Professor Hulk be allowed to go back?
"Thor, pull me out!" When he was smashed on Thor again, Professor Hulk hugged Thor and screamed.
"Good!" Thor grabbed Professor Hulk in one hand and thundered Ebony Throat with the Storm Tomahawk in the other. Taking advantage of the gap between the ebony throat and the block, Professor Hulk was finally rescued.
"I'll leave it to you first, I'll go back and discuss how to deal with it first." Professor Hulk hurriedly spoke to Thor, then turned and ran back. However, Ebony Throat's telekinesis control was very wide, and with just a hook of his fingers, Professor Hulk felt his body float again.
"No......" Professor Hulk leaned down and thrust his hands deep into the mothership's splint to resist Ebony Throat's control. With brute strength, although his entire body was pulled and floated into the air, he was really not sucked away.
Thor laughed, "You don't have a meat shield this time, I'll see how you can block my axe!" ”
He summoned the divine power of his whole body, pulled out the thunder in the sky, and slashed down with an axe on the ebony throat.
The corners of the ebony throat curled slightly, and with a slanted gaze, he looked at the Avengers gathered around the wounded. Before, his idea was to break them all, so he didn't do anything to the Avengers. But now, he has a better idea.
Steve was holding his shield and blocking the dense laser cannon for the wounded behind him, when he suddenly felt his body being pulled forward by a huge force.
"Oops!"
Steve screamed and was dragged away.
Professor Hulk was so anxious when he saw Steve flying past him that he grabbed Steve's arm and stopped him. But then, he saw Rod scream, "whoosh", and crossed over his head.
Professor Hulk had two arms, one of which had been inserted into the ground so as not to be controlled by Ebony Throat. There was no way to save people this time, so I had to watch as Rhodes flew in front of Ebony Throat and used his body to block Thor's storm tomahawk.
"Damn it!" Thor hurriedly retracted his strength, but the aftermath still hit Rod's body, and he knocked Rod out with an axe.
"What a strange material!" Ebony Throat turned his head to look at the steel suit that was whirling into the distance, and exclaimed.
Rod's nano steel suit has also been re-upgraded by Tony, referring to the material process of vibranium, and it has a strong ability to resist hits. With this superior defensive force, Thor's blow would not have killed him.
But the weakness of any steel suit has always been the human being in it. No matter how good the shock absorption effect of the steel suit is, it cannot change the damage to the insiders in the case of high-speed flight and extreme spin.
Specifically, just look at Rhodes, who fell off the inner wall of the mothership, squirmed on the ground, and couldn't get up for half a day.
Thor saw that it was easy to injure his own people by mistake with a storm tomahawk, so he had no choice but to give up the tomahawk and go up to hand-to-hand combat with his bare hands. But Thor, who had no weapons, suffered a great loss in strength, and was easily swung around by the ebony throat, and was bloodied.
Ebony Throat has found a way to deal with the Avengers.
Thor, who has the strongest attack power, uses his companion's body to block if he dares to use an axe. If he doesn't use an axe, he's a mallet.
Professor Hulk, the big man, was almost no threat as long as he wasn't allowed to get close.
The guy in the steel suit, although he can fight and resist, but the attack can be blocked by the wreckage of the fighter, and the threat is not great. And although the defensive ability of the suit is excellent, the personnel inside the suit itself are the biggest weakness, and the body is too fragile to be vulnerable at all.
Before, Ebony Throat still needed to let the Dark Legion soldiers behind him attack the two wounded with firepower to suppress it, but now, even if the Avengers are collectively dispatched, he can easily make targeted responses, divide the Avengers, and break them individually.
Of course, Ebony Throat will not give up its firepower advantage and engage in any heads-up because of this, but will re-order the soldiers behind to advance steadily.
Ebony Throat floated in place, but the attack range advanced in a straight line, directly pushing the battlefield to the side of the Avengers from a distance, and then rolled up at random, and swept the rest of the Avengers in. At the same time, the soldiers of the Dark Legion also cooperated with all their firepower and attacked fiercely.
If it weren't for the fact that the Avengers had already been wrapped in steel suits, I was afraid that this time, there would have been casualties.
But Ebony Throat had already planned it, his fingers drew a circle clockwise, and under the control of telekinesis, all the steel suits rotated quickly on the axis of the spine of the body.
"Friday!" The sudden attack made Tony's head spin and he screamed in a hurry.
Friday was instructed to immediately intelligently modify the structure of the nano steel suit, so that a row of jets appeared on each side of the body, and correspondingly spewed out a stream of energy particles, resisting the telekinetic control of the ebony throat and stopping the rotation.
Although Friday's reaction was extremely fast, and the process only took about a few seconds, it had already made many ordinary people inside who had not been strengthened dizzy.
"Huh?" Ebony Throat let out an exclamation in surprise, then smiled coldly, and drew a circle with his fingers counterclockwise, and everyone spun backwards at high speed again.
This time, Friday's reaction was much faster, and it only took a little more than a second to add a jet port on the other side of the body, stopping the crowd from spinning.
Ebony Throat tried a few more times, but this time, regardless of whether Ebony Throat was spinning forward, inverted, front flip, or backflip, Friday would spray a stream of energy particles at the corresponding jet port in time to prevent the Avengers from being controlled.
Ebony Throat could also see that these jets could change positions freely on the body, and this tactic of his had been cracked. But he didn't care, as long as he found the enemy's weak point, then what attack to adopt was just to try a few more tactical options.
The fall of the Avengers is only a matter of time.
The Avengers concentrate on Friday's support against Ebonjaw's various manipulations, occasionally unleashing some attacks on Ebonjaw in an attempt to salvage the situation.
However, passive defense is always a little slower than half a beat, and although Friday's intelligent control can already allow the user inside the suit not to be damaged by Ebony Throat's attacks, it will always be interrupted by the offensive rhythm and will not be as effective as it should be.
And without the help of the Storm Tomahawk, everyone's attacks were blocked by the Ebony Throat manipulating object, and it didn't hurt him at all. Any attempt to get closer to Ebonwood Throat was beaten back by Professor Hulk, who was manipulated by Ebonwood Throat.
Because of Professor Hulk's strength, he and Thor are the only ones who don't have a nano steel suit equipped. But now, in the face of Ebony Throat's telekinetic control, without Friday's assistance, Professor Hulk has no ability to resist at all.
This is the embarrassing situation of the warrior facing the master.
The resistance is too low! Hands are too short! Remote output is not enough!
If you can't get close at all, you will be charged to death!
What Professor Hulk threw out was at most the level of a missile, and it could be invincible on Earth, but it was really not worth mentioning in the face of a long-range telekinesis controller of the level of Ebony Throat.
Many superheroes usually don't use steel suits to fight, but they can give full play to their own advantages, but now they don't dare to take off their steel suits at all, otherwise they will definitely be disabled by dense laser cannons.
Everyone was very anxious and tried several different tactics, but they couldn't turn the tide of the battle.
Obviously, the comprehensive strength is far stronger than that of the other side, but because of the weakness, the opponent was caught, and all kinds of tactical targets were completely suppressed.
Ebony Throat was very aware of the anxiety in the hearts of the Avengers, so he became even more unhurried, and kept putting pressure on them with words.
"The Star Destroyer Cannon is almost full of energy, if you don't speed up a little faster, the asteroid below will be shattered into pieces!"
"I don't know what your purpose is here, but judging from the layout of the planet, it is definitely not small. This purpose must be so important to you that you dare to use force against the Dark Legion. ”
Ebony Throat's gaze grew cold, and cruel words slowly spat out of his mouth.
"In this universe, anyone who dares to offend the dark legion will be punished with the most cruel punishment!"
"Get ready to say goodbye to your asteroids!"
"Stop!" Steve finally couldn't bear it anymore, "The soul gem is on the planet below, isn't Thanos also looking for the Infinity Stone?" You shattered the Vormir Star, and there were no more soul gems! ”
Rather than lose the Soul Gem forever, Steve would rather the Gem fall into the hands of Sanos.
At the very least, this way can be snatched by force in the future, spy-stolen, and even defrauded like Loki obtained the Mind Stone from Thanos. It's better than a broken gem and disappearing in this universe, and their plan to save them will be a complete failure!
"Huh?" Ebony Throat was shocked when he heard this, and quickly gave orders to the warriors of the Dark Legion. Immediately, a spaceship disembarked from the mothership through the other exit and landed above the surface. And then...... The ship was shot down by an automatic defense system on the ground.
Originally, the Avengers planned to fight a ground war on the planet, so when the Dark Legion appeared, the automatic defense system was fully activated, and the enemy was the Dark Legion's warships and spaceships.
Later, because Ebony Throat's Star Destroyer Cannon nullified the Avengers' preparations, the Avengers had to fly out of the planet to fight space battles, but the automatic defense system was not turned off. The unprepared Dark Legion ship was just taken down.
After receiving the news, Ebony Throat swept over the still stubborn Avenger with a gloomy gaze, "Hmph, a little trick!" ”
"The Infinity Stones are cosmic treasures, and their sturdiness is not something that can be destroyed by a scattered attack like the Star Destroyer Cannon."
"If the soul gem is really on the planet below, after I shatter the planet, I can look for it slowly!"
The power of the Star Destroyer Cannon is indeed very strong, but this strength is reflected in the output power. The attack range of the cannon is very wide, the duration is very long, and it can directly open a hole in the planet, but for a small area as much as a soul gem, the attack it can withstand is actually not much.
So Ebony Throat is right, the Star Destroyer Cannon can't shatter the soul gem.
Moreover, the planet is so big, the probability of a cannon smashing on the soul gem is even lower.
Ebony Throat is insidious and cunning, so he is also very suspicious, and he does not believe the words that come out of the mouth of the enemy at all.
If the expedition team sent out really found the soul gem on the planet Vormir, then of course he wouldn't mind taking the gem away and handing it over to his boss Thanos in exchange for a reward.
But he was more convinced that the so-called soul gems were nothing more than a means used by the enemy to stall for time.
Both sides are fighting like this, are there any means that are still hidden and not used?
"It was an accident just now, I'll stop the automatic defense system now, and you can send someone down there to check." Tony also realized the seriousness of the problem, and interjected to persuade Ebony Throat. But he was not willing to let Sanos get the soul gem, so he deliberately played a little trick.
"Right on the hill where our base is located, soul gems can be obtained through that altar. It's just that we haven't figured out what to do to get the soul gems. ”
"Oh? Is it? Ebony Throat stared at a few people, "Okay, I believe it." If you're going to be caught now, I'll stop the Star Destroyer and go down and look for it. ”
