Chapter 782 Mechanical Celestial—Howard Stark
Not only Frost Giants, but also Fire Monsters, Undead, Elves, and even Angels.
It's simply a melting pot of Fantasy Creatures. Those Fantasy Creatures from mythology and fairy tales all popped up at once and started attacking Humans.
With the Divine Spear Bureau's reminder, the reactions of various Nations were very rapid, but facing enemies randomly appearing in the Downtown Area, even the fastest reaction would still be a bit slow.
Moreover, ordinary Soldiers are completely not a match for these Fantasy Armies. Not to mention those Undead and Elves using Cold Weapons, why are Angels driving Robots?
This Combat Power crushing led to the Human side being completely suppressed. They could only fight and retreat, and it was only when they retreated to hastily established positions that things got slightly better. Relying on Heavy Firepower, they barely managed to block the enemy's attack.
But everyone knew this was only temporary. These Fantasy Creatures didn't seem to intend to kill them all. It felt like they were acting according to a Plan, eliminating only a small batch at a time, and no one knew what Thoughts they had.
But this kind of treatment, like slaughtering pigs and cows, made the surviving Humans even more Fearful. If this continues, someone might suffer a Mental Breakdown.
The Governments of various Nations were also suffering. Because it was in the Downtown Area, they couldn't use Weapons of Mass Destruction. These Monsters were very clever, always maintaining a Safety Distance from the Crowd while chasing.
Once Weapons of Mass Destruction were used on a large scale, such as Nuclear Bombs, it was unknown whether these Monsters would die, but Humans would definitely die first.
Moreover, the Governments of some Nations were attacked first. The entire Nation system was directly paralyzed, and they couldn't even organize a decent counterattack.
Coupled with the Worthy of the Serpent who were still causing destruction, the entire Earth fell into deeper Fear, like America now.
"America is now completely fallen." Zheng Xian found Ji Shuangshuang and A-Cheng, but did not call Lin Lie. After all, the latter's Fuxi Sword was broken, and he could not constitute Combat Power now.
Without the Fuxi Sword, Lin Lie was not even comparable to an ordinary Divine Spear Bureau Agent. After all, what the former Agent knew, the latter Agent also knew, but what the Agent knew, Lin Lie might not necessarily know.
"How could it be like this?" A-Cheng widened his Eyes. You know, that's America, a superpower. How could it fall silently like this?
"Because now ruling there is a new Worthy of the Serpent." Zheng Xian pressed a Button, and a Visual immediately appeared on the Screen behind him.
I saw a person wearing black and gold Armor holding a Hammer that completely didn't match his High-tech Battle Armor. Behind him were dense Robots, and the Camera in the Eyes of each Robot revealed a scarlet Light.
One or two would be fine, but this dense group like locusts, when put together, was indeed very oppressive.
"Those are... Sentinel Robots?" Ji Shuangshuang recognized those dense Robots. "So, is this person wearing a Battle Suit..."
"Howard Stark." Zheng Xian said in a serious tone. "Previously, Hyperion of the Squadron Supreme in America started the trend of Superhuman Registration. Those Sentinel Robots responsible for identifying and capturing Superhumans were all manufactured by Stark Industries."
"As the head of Stark Industries and someone who personally participated in the Design of Sentinel Robots, Howard naturally possessed the Ability to tamper with all Sentinel Robots. After he was Controlled by the Serpent, the entire Sentinel Robot legion naturally became his Soldiers."
A-Cheng couldn't help but shudder. Just thinking about an army of Robots that was fearless and only knew how to execute Orders was terrifying.
"If these Sentinel Robots were all equipped with the shoddy Goods from Hammer Industries, that would be great."
A-Cheng's wishful thinking was supported by everyone present. Everyone knew that the Weapons produced by Hammer Industries were not good. Their best Products were all imitations of Stark Industries' products.
But wishful thinking is just wishful thinking. In the end, one has to face Reality.
"It's not just these Sentinel Robots." Zheng Xian sighed. "Stark Industries has many subsidiaries, and some of them also make Technology Products. As long as it's something connected to the internet, it will be Controlled by Howard."
"Howard Stark, he relied on the Power of Technology to Control an entire Nation, and some surrounding Nations that use Stark Industries' Products were also affected. Fortunately, our Nation has been developing its own Power, otherwise it might have become one of them."
Everyone present was extremely grateful at this time. Putting aside what Common People used for the moment, for things like national security, they had always insisted on using their own if possible. If not, they would increase Research and replace it with their own.
This kind of strategy allowed them to avoid a huge Crisis at this time.
"The thing the higher-ups Fear most now is whether Howard will launch Nuclear Weapons Worldwide under the Control of the Serpent." Zheng Xian said in a deep voice.
"At that time, all Creatures on the entire Earth will die. For this reason, the higher-ups decided to send a Squad to resolve this Crisis."
At this point, Ji Shuangshuang and A-Cheng understood. Now that other Superhumans had been sent out, the Squad that could take on this important Mission was only them.
Facing this Mission that could almost be described as nine deaths and one life, Ji Shuangshuang and A-Cheng only hesitated for a moment before agreeing. They had already made mental Preparation after joining the Divine Spear Bureau with the Three Emperors' Divine Artifacts.
The reason for hesitation was that these Missions lacked the Fuxi Sword, making them unsure whether they could successfully complete the Mission. After all, Mission failure would Alert the Enemy.
If they sacrificed themselves, it would be fine, but if it provoked Howard's killing intent, leading him to launch Nuclear Bombs, it would be bad.
"Don't worry, there will be a Divine Spear Bureau Agent Squad to assist you." Zheng Xian saw the two's worries. "Also, I have contacted Franklin and the others. They will also send Superhumans to Help you."
"This is the Connection Method of the leader on the other side." Zheng Xian handed a small Communication Device to Ji Shuangshuang. "The other party's Name is Reed Richards."
"That famous Scholar?" Ji Shuangshuang looked at Zheng Xian in Surprise. "I remember he didn't die in the New York Event not long ago? Big News reported on this matter."
"Obviously not." Zheng Xian's expression was strange. "We have all been deceived by Western journalism."
After all, the New York Ruins now are impossible to enter, so even the Divine Spear Bureau doesn't know what it's like inside. Who would have thought that there would still be a Superhuman Squad inside?
It's truly ironic. A fallen Nation is now going to be saved by a group of people abandoned by the masses. If this were placed in Mythology, it would definitely be a famous epic biography.
