Like a bomb, the substance ejected from the knuckles of Ultimate Four Arms's fist, after hitting Red Omega's head, spread in all directions, turning over the land that had just been shattered.

Under the heavy strike of this punch, the surrounding facilities were almost all affected. The lighter damage resulted in cracks, while the heavier damage was like the original auditorium, leaving almost only ruins.

Ultimate Four Arms, who unleashed this astonishing punch, straightened his body. The shell that originally tightly wrapped around his body suddenly developed some small openings, and scorching steam was immediately vented from there.

"Hiss!"

As the steam was vented, the surrounding temperature began to rise sharply. Although it was already a clear and crisp autumn day, it now felt like midsummer again.

The scorching steam dispersed the swirling dust, revealing Red Omega lying motionless on the ground.

At this time, there was no flesh left on his body. After the previous punch and explosion, those fragile muscles had been blasted into nothing, leaving only a skeleton of Adamantium alloy flickering with strange light, and alloy tentacles connected to the skeleton.

Yang Le raised his right fist that he had just swung out. The shell wrapped around it now had fissures. Upon closer inspection, it was not difficult to see that some red liquid was gradually seeping out, which was Yang Le's blood.

After all, it is the hardest alloy in the world. Although it is only sub-grade Adamantium alloy, it is not something anyone can easily mess with. Ultimate Four Arms only receiving this minor injury from punching it was already far beyond Yang Le's expectations.

With a sudden clench of his fist, bright yellow sweat was discharged from the openings on his knuckles, enveloping his entire right hand. The originally liquid sweat turned into gel again after contacting the air, just like before, and a simple bandage was made.

He opened and closed his palm a few times, and after finding that it did not affect his movement, Yang Le nodded in satisfaction. Only then did he turn back to check his surroundings. Although the auditorium where he had placed the hostages had collapsed, those hostages were not idiots either. Seeing the danger, they chose to escape at the first moment.

The terrorists from A.I.M were the same, and MODOK, as the leader, was also the same. When disaster strikes, everyone flies away. At this time, he couldn't care less about his proudest invention. After all, things can be rebuilt if they are gone, but his clever brain and life are unique in the world.

As early as before Yang Le unleashed his fist, MODOK, seeing that the situation was not good, had already led his subordinates to escape. According to his calculations, Red Omega was bound to fall under this punch. As a true scientist (self-proclaimed), he didn't want to face a fist like an intercontinental missile.

Yang Le did not stop them either. Ultimate Four Arms is, after all, a creature. After unleashing that punch just now, he himself was also affected to some extent. Leaving aside the injury, fatigue toxins were also a big problem.

Besides, he had a good fight today. Unleashing this punch was much more satisfying than... well, you know?

In the spirit of "not picking up things is considered lost" and "not going home empty-handed," Yang Le directly picked up Red Omega's skeleton from the ground. Howard, who had inhaled a large amount of neutralizing gas of Death Factor mixed with healing potion, saw Yang Le's actions, opened his mouth several times, but finally chose to remain silent.

Seeing the shriveled Adamantium alloy skull, the severely deformed spine, and the slightly deformed rib and sternum, Howard felt it was better to pretend he didn't see anything.

No, wait, what "didn't see"? He had already fainted from serious injury while resisting a powerful enemy, and was now lying under the ruins after the auditorium collapsed. If it weren't for the armor protection, he might have already died. He should be completely unaware of everything.

Howard silently deleted the video recording from the armor's record, then quietly crushed the black box used for recording into pieces under the ruins, and then asked the Artificial Intelligence Jarvis.

"How is Tony now?"

"According to campus video footage, Master Tony was also attacked by a superhuman. At first, Master chose to use the armor he made to fight, but soon fell into a disadvantage."

Hearing this, Howard's heart tightened, but Jarvis quickly continued.

"Fortunately, with the help of the suspected female superhuman who appeared at Miss Xue Xi's concert before, plus the help of the armor you deployed, sir, Master Tony and the other party joined forces to defeat the enemy. Currently, according to Master's armor display, his body condition is very healthy."

"Phew~" Howard breathed a long sigh of relief, and said with a hint of fatigue.

"Next time, get to the key point first, Jarvis."

"Received, your request, sir, has been recorded and will be improved next time."

Howard closed his eyes and pondered, looking at the visuals of the video recording that Jarvis had pulled up for him. Inside were Tony wearing his spare armor, and also the superhuman who used spider silk that Tony had told him about before.

Although Xue Xi's beauty is great, most of those who like her performance are young people of the same age group as her, and older people are still in the minority. In addition, the other party appeared at Midtown High School so promptly. Based on this message, one can roughly deduce the other party's identity.

The other party is very likely also a student of Midtown High School. Although this is just a guess, Howard has eighty percent confidence that this is the correct answer.

After pondering for a while, Howard opened his mouth and said, "Jarvis, destroy all the video recording of Midtown High School, do it cleanly. After you're done, delete the data of yourself doing this."

"Understood, sir."

Howard was worried this early on that those guys from the military would target the superhuman who possessed spider superpower. Although Howard considered himself extremely intelligent, he also knew that as long as someone was determined, they could always find the other party's true identity through these video recording.

After all, the other party had saved his son twice. Howard didn't mind doing some small favors. If it were in the past, Howard might have left it alone, but Howard, who had walked through the gates of hell, had seen things differently. In this era of monsters emerging in large numbers, it is never possible to be safe by relying on oneself alone.

He couldn't, and didn't have the ability to protect Tony for life. Tony needed some partners. Today's Spider-Woman and that transforming superhuman are good choices. Helping them at this time is also paving the way for Tony.

Even if the military would suspect afterwards, just push everything to MODOK at that time. That big brain looks like good scapegoat material.

"Jarvis, set a 30-minute alarm clock."

After finishing everything, Howard contentedly lay in the armor. He needed to rest well now. In the past, he had really lived too tiredly. For the status of Stark Industries in the military, he was always working desperately. He couldn't do that anymore in the future.

"Don't wake me up if there's nothing special. I need to rest well."

"Understood, sir."

With the protection of the armor, Howard was not afraid of the ruins pressing on his body, and just started sleeping openly and brazenly.
