An hour later.

The Stone Man drives Roy back to Baxter Tower.

Like the training ground, the pickup truck that the Stone Man is driving now has been specially modified.

Otherwise, he would not be able to drive the car with a little force, and the slightest exertion would shatter the steering wheel or break the accelerator and brakes.

"I'm getting more and more curious about how you got the power you have now?"

"I've read the information given by Reed, and I know that your superpowers only greatly improve your physical attributes in a short period of time."

"But I didn't see you use your superpowers at all."

"I'm pretty sure you're using your physical strength to fight me."

The stone man turned to look at Roy and asked curiously.

"The one you see is just my original superpower."

"Compared to before, my physical attributes have improved a little bit now, nothing special."

Roy said lightly.

Although the Stone Man did not seem to have any malicious intentions, just pure curiosity, he would not tell the Stone Man the truth about himself.

Not to mention the stone people, even Clarice and Lorna, he wouldn't say either.

After hearing Roy's answer, the stone man did not continue to ask, and ended the topic very decisively.

After more than ten seconds, he continued:

"By the way, inside the building, Reed specially designed some test equipment for me to test my strength and speed or something."

"Would you like to test it out and see how strong and fast you are?"

Roy looked at the stone man and said slowly:

"No, I've tested it at school before."

He's telling the truth, he did test his physical attributes in school before.

That was a long time ago, though.

To be exact, it was before he crossed over.

With the properties panel provided by the system, he didn't need to do any testing at all.

If you want to know your physical attributes, just open the attributes panel and take a look.

"Okay."

The stone man replied quickly.

New York's traffic environment has always been poor.

The closer you get to the rush hour, the more congested it becomes.

Less than ten minutes after leaving Hell's Kitchen, Roy and the Stone Man are stuck in traffic.

Looking at the snail-like cars in front of him, Roy began to think about whether to fly back with a cloud of flames instead of wasting time in a traffic jam.

Just as he was pondering whether it would be a man to fly back to the Baxter Building, or to take the Stone Man with him, a military helicopter flew over their heads.

Although the flight altitude of this military helicopter is not very low, located in the air at a distance of several hundred meters.

But the roar of the huge engine was still clearly heard on the street.

In Manhattan, news helicopters and police helicopters are not uncommon, and can even be seen every day.

But military helicopters are another matter.

This is not the war-torn Middle East, but the heart of New York, the largest city in the United States.

Seeing a military helicopter in such a place is almost as likely as seeing a white beauty in Africa, where black people are everywhere.

To put it simply, it's rare, or rather, rare.

It's a bit of an anomaly!

Looking at the military helicopter that flew quickly from above, Roy quietly exerted his domineering spirit, and briefly sensed the situation within a few kilometers nearby.

Then, nothing was found.

Although he sensed a lot of life breath, including the life breath of mutants, there was nothing unusual in the vicinity for a few kilometers.

No fighting, no riots.

Everything is normal.

Roy didn't think much about it, and directly dissolved the perception.

"Strange, how could the military send helicopters into the city, are they not afraid of causing unnecessary disturbances?"

The stone man looked at the military helicopter that gradually disappeared from view, and said with a puzzled expression.

"Who knows?"

"Maybe the military is on some secret mission."

Roy replied casually.

"Perhaps."

The stone man said quickly.

Little by little, time passed.

It took about five minutes for Roy and the Stone Man to advance a pitiful two or three hundred meters in the pickup.

Sure that the traffic jam was unlikely to end for a while, Roy said to the stone man:

"Do you want to park on the side of the road first, and I'll fly you back."

Fly back?

The stone man looked at Roy in surprise.

Just as he was pondering whether to say yes to Roy, an explosion suddenly sounded in the street in the distance.

This is?

Although the explosion was not particularly loud, it still caught the attention of Roy and the Stone Man at the first time.

"Something seems to have happened up front?"

The stone man said quickly.

Before the stone man could speak, Roy used his domineering power to lock on to the area where the explosion was coming from.

The next second, he frowned.

What is this?

At this time, he sensed a breath of life far beyond ordinary people.

Although he couldn't immediately recognize who this breath of life was, he was sure of one thing, that is, something had indeed happened in front of him.

Because he sensed the unstoppable arrogance and irrepressible impulse of destruction in that breath of life that far exceeded ordinary people.

"There's something going on up ahead."

After saying that, Roy opened the car door and walked down.

Then, under the watchful eyes of the stone man and the surrounding pedestrians, the cast flame cloud flew in the direction from which the explosion came.

After seeing Roy's actions, the stone man got out of the pickup truck without saying a word and began to run wildly.

It didn't take much effort for Roy to find himself in the street where the explosions were heard.

Then he saw a giant with a mud-yellow complexion, bone spurs on his spine and elbows, and a rib cage on his chest that was so bulging that it looked like a cuirass.

How could it be him?

The first sight of this muddy yellow giant, Roy recognized him.

This yellow giant with a height of nearly four meters and arms thicker than the waist of an ordinary person is none other than the "hate" Bronsky.

It shouldn't be!

According to the timeline of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, abomination will not appear until at least five or six years later.

Although the timeline is a little wrong, Roy didn't waste his brain cells thinking about it.

This is not the first time this has happened.

In this universe with mutants and the Fantastic Four, even if Thanos invades Earth with an army tomorrow, it is not impossible.

While Roy was looking at Abomination, Abomination, who was wreaking havoc on the streets, spotted him.

After seeing Roy floating in the air on the purple-black flame cloud, Abomination didn't hesitate and directly lifted a car next to him.

Subsequently, the car was thrown at Roy.

The car that was thrown by the Abomination weighed a ton or two.

But to abomination, that weight is nothing at all.

After being injected with Banner's blood provided by Dr. "Mr. Blue" Gordon, he feels that he has now completed his transformation from a human to a god.

I am God!

That's what Hate Now thinks!

As a "god", he certainly doesn't like to be looked down upon by others.

So, after seeing Roy stepping on the flame cloud and looking down on him condescendingly, his first thought was to smash Roy down.

Then, let Roy, who landed on the ground, know what will happen if he looks down on the gods.

Not everyone is able to maintain a normal state of mind after breaking through and gaining great strength.

Not to mention a powerful force, even if you suddenly get an unexpected windfall, many people will not be able to control it.

Roy didn't know what Abomination was thinking now, though.

But when he saw Abomination smash himself with a car without saying a word, he knew that he needed to deal with Abomination's unexpected enemy before returning to Baxter Tower.
