Chapter 1997: Assemble and Assistance
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Steve was very sure that Knight was much better at unard combat than he was. At the very least, he couldn’t kill each of the four-ard monsters with just one hit.
He took a deep breath. “Clint, Rocket, take Rhodes to look for backup armor. Then, we’ll et back on the surface.”
He was still worried about Knight facing so many monsters on his own. This sort of combat consud too much stamina.
Dong dong dong! Muffled footsteps rang out.
The hole which Luke had kicked open widened even more as Dr. Banner’s huge green figure erged.
Stunned for a mont, everybody then exulted – their ‘bulldozer’ was finally here.
Suddenly, a figure grew bigger and appeared not far away from Steve and the others. “Captain, that’s great. I finally found you.”
Scott had followed the noise and snuck over.
While he was feeling happy, Luke’s voice rang out on the comms in his helt. “This isn’t a picnic. Thor and Tony are taking a beating up there. You better hurry.”
Scott’s smile froze, and he quickly repeated what Luke said to his teammates.
As for Luke? He had already cleared the way for them. He turned a corner in the passage and disappeared from sight.
Only the rhythmic sound of cracking could be heard to let everyone know that he was still fighting.
Everybody looked at each other. Steve didn’t hesitate for long this ti. “Banner, take them to the armory. I’ll follow Knight and make sure he’s alright.”
Since he had spoken, the others didn’t object, and imdiately split up.
With Dr. Banner and Scott working together, they would be able to quickly dig out any gear from the ruins.
After all, apart from the A.I. Friday and its master, Tony, Dr. Banner was the most familiar with the equipnt in the base.
Sensing that his body had basically recovered, Steve felt even more confident.
After all, he was a super soldier who had reached the peak of mankind; this short break had been enough for him to recover.
Now, he had to check on Knight.
He couldn’t let a guest do all the dirty work; as the host, he should leave with him.
Running around a corner, he saw the bodies of the four-ard monsters in front of him.
He ran 20 ters down the passage and turned a corner, the bodies of the four-ard monsters littering the entire way.
After running through a 10-ter passage littered with bodies, he finally entered a relatively large leftover space under the base.
On the black helt, a pair of bluish-white eyes looked at him as Knight said indifferently, “You’re not with them?”
Steve’s eyes widened slightly.
In the space in front of him lay the bodies of hundreds of four-ard monsters.
As he spoke, Luke dodged two four-ard monsters and swung a double-headed spear at their heads.
In the end, the two four-ard monsters brushed past him and crashed to the ground as their heads were sent flying.
As Luke asked the question, he suddenly looked up. “Forget it. Let’s go up together. Thor and Tony are surrounded. They won’t be able to hold out for much longer.”
As he spoke, he folded the spear in his hand and put it back at his waist. He walked over to Steve and stretched out his hand. “I’ll take you up to save ti.”
Steve hesitated for a mont, but acquiesced.
Luke grabbed his shoulder, and his hand glowed with a faint white light. “Relax, this is to treat your injuries.”
“Huh?” Steve’s voice was a little off. His nurous injuries felt itchy, but the pain quickly disappeared.
He had never experienced such a superpower before. It was both uncomfortable yet not, and he was a little stunned.
The mont the treatnt started, Luke pulled Steve upward, and he punched hard with his right fist.
Activating Vibration, he continued punching with his right fist.
With a rumble, the two of them burrowed their way out from dozens of ters underground until they reached a space close to the surface.
The four-ard monsters here were sent flying, but more imdiately charged forward to take their place.
This space was as wide as the previous one. Luke decisively took out the multi-purpose collapsible rod from his waist and turned it into a double-headed spear.
With an extra spear tip, he was 70% more efficient at killing these monsters.
Although he had infinite stamina, he didn’t mind killing these monsters more quickly.
The dark gray double-headed spear drew black lines in the air as it slashed through the four-ard monsters like they were dead pigs. They didn’t even have a chance to touch Luke’s armor.
The only thing they could touch was Luke’s big feet.
Every now and then, Luke would kick a certain unlucky four-ard monster with Vibration, and it would turn into a ‘monster cannonball’ that smashed a path through the incoming four-ard monsters.
Relying on these four-ard monsters who had sacrificed themselves to pave the way, Luke charged out of the ruins with Steve. “Throw the shield!”
Steve threw the shield at Thor without hesitation.
Thor was surrounded by Cull Oblivion, Corvus Glaive and Proxima Midnight. The situation was dire, and Proxima had even stabbed Thor in the back with her spear.
Thor, who was tangled up with Cull and Corvus, found it hard to dodge.
Swoosh!
Proxima saw a fleeting red and white shadow out of the corner of her eye. It was Steve’s shield.
As soone who had been on the battlefield for a long ti, she subconsciously felt that sothing wasn’t right. She switched targets and aid her spear at the shield.
Just as the spear was about to make contact, the spinning shield flipped strangely, basically going from horizontal to almost vertical.
The spear brushed past the edge of the shield, and the expected collision didn’t happen at all.
Seeing the spinning shield turn vertical like a saw blade, as if to cut her face, Proxima could only turn her head to the side, and just in ti.
Zi~
With an ear-piercing screech, the shield slashed a hole in the armor on Proxima’s shoulder, and she was sent flying.
Seeing that his wife had been ambushed, Corvus couldn’t help but be distracted for a mont.
Sensing an opportunity, Thor flew forward and kicked Corvus in the thigh. He kicked off and, as the hamr imdiately flew back to his empty left hand, he swung it at Cull’s head.
Cull subconsciously raised the shield in his right hand.
Bang! He was also sent flying.
As Thor gasped for breath, he saw Luke fly through the air as the shield swung back around on a tal cable.
The shield cut through the four-ard monsters that were in his way.
Steve used the double-headed spear which Luke had just thrown at him to send the monsters flying. He raised his hand and caught the shield which had cut the monsters down like they were logs.
At that mont, he said, “I’ll give you back your spear.”
Luke, on the other hand, reached for the Bat darts at his waist. “Keep it. It can change shape.”
As he spoke, he spun in the air, and Bat darts flew in all directions like hunting bats.
The Bat darts spun 100 ters around him and cut through all the four-ard monsters that entered this range, leaving behind broken limbs and bad-slling fluid.
Steve and Thor got so respite for a mont.
