Chapter 2015: Saving the Wounded, Convincing People With Virtue
Strange had never forgotten that those who played with ti would eventually be played by ti.
In 2023, the Avengers revived the dead, but there was a slip-up in 2014, which led to Thanos crossing over from that ti, almost wiping out Earth.
Changing sothing would lead to an even worse outco – this was the most common backlash.
Strange had predicted this outco, and also knew that this sole chance of victory wasn’t absolute.
If sothing went wrong, this one chance would beco the end of all life in this universe.
Controlling ti was a risky gamble.
So, the appearance of Knight, who didn’t exist in this tiline, wasn’t necessarily a good thing.
If it wasn’t for the fact that the battle had just ended and he had yet to take back the Ti Stone, Strange would’ve imdiately recalculated the future.
…
On the other side, the ‘reinforcents’ soon landed.
She imdiately looked at Luke. It couldn’t be helped. After all, he was still holding the Infinity Glove.
Luke tactfully gave the glove to Tony, patted his shoulder, and went to the side to save people.
This woman was very guarded, and the energy she contained was even more terrifying. He wouldn’t act recklessly at a ti like this.
Besides, the system had just calculated a huge amount of experience and credit points for the mission. However, Luke had always been a conscientious and diligent person.
After making so much, would he stop doing good in the future? Of course not.
Saving a life was worth 20 points, and he also got points for treating non-lethal injuries. Taking out the cost of the clone using Light of Life, he could earn 80 to 100 points a minute.
This was much more cost-effective than helping drug dealers clean out their inventory for free.
To clean out inventory, Luke had to confirm the target and gather intelligence before he took action, whereas here, there were injured people everywhere with points ripe for the taking.
A mont later, Wanda couldn’t help but co over to thank Luke, who had helped her get revenge, and to persuade him to treat himself first.
In the end… Luke caught hold of this able-bodied person, who beca responsible for finding the wounded and moving them over, while the people who had been treated were imdiately moved away.
With such a fully automatic and intelligent porter, Luke’s rescue operation beca even more efficient.
As Luke saved more and more of the wounded, the atmosphere beca even more solemn.
Most people consciously started to help send those with minor injuries to Wakanda through a portal to reduce the pressure on treatnt here.
However, this Knight in black armor, whose right side was charred black, still insisted on using his left hand to release a gentle white light to save the severely wounded, which left a deep impression on everyone.
Actually, Luke wasn’t interested in increasing his popularity.
However, the backlash from activating the Infinity Glove had been too violent, and a lot of the armor on his right side had lted.
His nanotechnology was far inferior to 2023 Tony’s, and it wasn’t like he had anything to cover his injured right side.
With experience and credit points all over the ground, how could he waste ti?
In any case, he didn’t feel too much pain thanks to the Taffy ability, so he simply decided not to bother with his injuries for now.
On the other hand, Wanda, who was helping out, had red eyes – it was the rims of her eyes that were really red this ti, not her pupils. She couldn’t help but persuade Luke in a low voice, “Your injury is very serious. Why don’t you go back to Wakanda to recuperate first?”
Luke turned his head and gave her a kind smile. “Trust , this injury can’t be treated.”
Wanda’s eyes widened. “Are you going to…”
She swallowed the last word “die,” but her mind fluctuated violently.
Luke raised his left hand and slapped the back of her head. “Hey, girl! What are you thinking? I’ll definitely live longer than you.”
Wanda was stunned, and so were many Avengers who had been paying attention to the commotion. Hit the back of this violent witch’s head? Did he want to beco a second Thanos?!
It had purely been automatic on Luke’s part.
He smacked the witch in 2012 because she was still young and unruly – his hand couldn’t help but slip.
What was wrong with slapping the head of this 30-year-old witch? Would she have the nerve to bully a heavily injured person like him?
Wanda stared blankly. Hm, her head didn’t hurt.
Then, the person who had just smacked her drew back his hand. “Don’t just stand there. There are still a lot of injured people.”
“Huh?” She didn’t know what to think. He could still be so blase after hitting soone?
But the person in front of her gave her the feeling that it was only par for the course.
Looking at Wanda, who was still in a daze, Luke stretched out his hand again, and a faint white light seeped into the back of her head. “Alright, even if I did hit you in the head, it’s healed now. Let’s get to work.”
Wanda was lost for words. Why did she suddenly feel like she was being treated like a kid?
Coming back to herself, she demonstrated her talents as a porter again and asked in a low voice, “What’s wrong with your injury?”
Wanda wasn’t an idiot.
Luke was saving the lives of so many heavily wounded people. Most of those with cuts or stab wounds, broken bones, internal bleeding or burns were healed in ten seconds, while it took 20 seconds for so others.
Also, he had sounded very professional when he told her to pay attention to how she moved the wounded.
Why didn’t a superhuman who knew his stuff when it ca to dical treatnt treat his injuries first? There could only be one reason.
Sure enough, Luke replied, “My injury is like what happened to Dr. Banner’s arm – it can’t be treated. You can consider it a price to pay for using the Infinity Glove.”
Hearing that, Wanda subconsciously looked at Dr. Banner, who was sitting not far away. He was discussing a plan with Tony to quickly close the gap in the lake.
Sure enough, his right arm was exactly the sa as Luke’s. It rested limply against his chest, and he couldn’t exert any strength at all.
Recalling the Hulk’s physique, Wanda could only believe this conclusion. Her heart sank. “Then what will you do in the future?”
Luke healed the major blood vessels in a wounded man’s abdon and gestured for the next patient. He said casually, “Is it hard to switch to a tal arm? That man’s arm looks good to .”
Wanda followed his gaze and saw a lancholy-looking Bucky. For a mont, she was lost for words.
That was because Bucky’s left arm was indeed much stronger than his right arm, and it really didn’t affect him in any way.
What the witch didn’t know was that Luke hadn’t just injured his right arm, but also his right side.
If he could change it all out, he would beco at least one-third a Nebula, and the title of chanical Knight would be just around the corner.
Thankfully, Luke didn’t care at all. The injuries to the clone were still useful.
This was firsthand information on the backlash generated by using the Infinity Stones – no one else would be able to get this sort of thing.
In 2023, only Thanos, Dr. Banner and Luke put on the glove and snapped their fingers.
Thanos was dead, and Luke couldn’t abduct Dr. Banner – naturally, he had to do his own research.
Once he was done with his research, he could summon another Level 2 clone, and the injuries would most likely disappear.
So, he didn’t care about these minor injuries at all.
