Chapter 298 War Escalation (More Updates, Please Subscribe)

The Leviathan beast that rushed out of the portal swooped down to the street below under the control of the Chitauri shortly after flying out of the portal.

Driven by inertia, the huge wings made of steel cut the high-rise buildings on both sides of the street into pieces of ruins as easily as cutting tofu.

The Chitauri soldiers standing on both sides of the Leviathan beast took the opportunity to eject into the numerous office buildings.

Then he raised the laser gun in his hand mercilessly and started shooting at the people who were fleeing in panic.

The once glorious building was instantly stained with blood.

The professional elites in suits and ties did not even put up a decent resistance, and became the dead souls in the hands of the Chitauri.

And more people, as if they were frightened out of fear, fled amidst screams.

"Buzz!"

"Bang!"

After using the palm cannon to kill two Chitauri soldiers who were chasing a group of workplace beauties, Tony Stark quickly flew directly in front of the Leviathan beast, and then hit Leviathan with a single shot of the palm cannon. The face of the giant beast.

"Hey bastard, look here!"

After Tony's palm cannon hit the Leviathan beast's face, although it made a mark on the steel armor on the Leviathan beast's face, it did not cause any substantial damage to it at all.

To this painless attack, the Leviathan beast, which had been surgically cut off by most of its pain-sensing nerves by the Chitauri, had no reaction at all.

On the contrary, the way Mark's armor kept dangling in front of its eyes made the Leviathan beast feel a bit annoying.

Facing the little bug standing in front of him, the Leviathan beast opened its bloody mouth and let out a deafening roar.

It seems to be driving away, and it seems to be intimidating.

"Well done!"

After seeing the Leviathan beast open its bloody mouth, exposing its relatively fragile and unprotected mouth in front of him, Tony's eyes lit up, and he quickly charged up the palm cannons in his hands.

"Hey, try this!"

Two seconds later, after Tony dodged the attacks of several Chitauri on the Leviathan beast, he directly blasted a basketball-sized energy ball into the Leviathan beast's mouth.

boom!

When the energy ball exploded, a piece of almost bloody flesh spattered out of the Leviathan's bloody mouth.

And the tongue in the mouth of this Leviathan beast was directly broken in half by the energy ball.

"roar!"

After letting out a painful cry, the injured Leviathan beast seemed to be going crazy, and rushed towards Tony Stark in front of him with extremely violent momentum.

"GOOD, that's it."

After seeing that the Leviathan beast had successfully attracted his attention, Tony ascended in a spin, dodging seven or eight energy shots that followed. Then he turned around to attract the Leviathan beast behind him. The beast flew towards the wide Hudson River next to Manhattan.

Tony Stark's move quickly attracted the attention of some Chitauri. In an instant, dozens of Chitauri aircraft flew towards Tony Stark.

But before they could surround Tony Stark, three Quinjet fighter jets roared and cleared Tony Stark amid the siege of a bunch of Chitauri. There is a way forward.

"Clear ahead, Mr. Stark!"

Looking at the three Quinjets that were in danger under the attack of a large number of Chitauri, they still insisted on clearing a way forward for themselves.

Tony said solemnly in the temporarily connected combat channel.

"Thanks!"

One minute later.

Tony Stark has just lured the Leviathan over the Hudson River.

Three missiles at the same height as a human accurately hit the steel behemoth.

Boom boom boom!

In the three explosions that sounded almost simultaneously, the Leviathan beast was instantly cut off at the waist and exploded into several pieces. The Chitauri soldiers it carried were also different from the Leviathan beast. Went to see the King of Hell together.

After taking care of a giant steel beast that was rampant in New York.

Neither Tony Stark nor Duke Granger, who was far away in the aerospace carrier, seemed happy at all.

Because, during the time they were dealing with this steel behemoth, more Leviathan behemoths and Chitauri descended over New York through the space portal in the sky.

Unknowingly.

There are already seven or eight soaring Leviathan beasts hovering over New York, as well as hundreds of Chitauri aircraft.

And, this number is still increasing.

And among the ever-expanding space portals, there are vaguely more terrifying beings being teleported over.

At this time, some Leviathan beasts and Chitauri aircraft flew into the streets and alleys of New York, destroying everything in front of them wantonly.

"Shet!"

Just when Tony Stark couldn't help but curse.

Dozens or hundreds of missiles of various colors suddenly pierced the sky and bombarded Pan Heng's Chitauri army and Leviathan beasts above New York from all directions.

At the same time, fighter planes belonging to the New York military carried rolling sonic booms and attacked the Chitauri from a long distance away.

And behind them.

Armed helicopters are speeding up.

At the same time, the voice of Tony's old friend Rod sounded in Mark IX's communication system.

"Hey, Tony, I see you. I'm not late this time, am I?"

"No, you are already late."

After denying without hesitation, Tony said: "As the protector of the Federation, shouldn't you arrive as soon as the portal opens?"

"Hey, come on, we are fast enough this time. Our base is not close to New York. If it weren't for the fact that our several major military bases were on standby at all times during this period and took off as soon as the high-energy reaction appeared in New York, you wouldn't be able to see us now... Okay, no more talking, I'm going to fuck those bastards first."

After saying that.

Rod flew over Tony Stark's head and took the lead to rush directly to a Leviathan beast over New York.

"Try my big baby, you bastard alien bastard..."

As Rhodes pressed the button, two anti-aircraft missiles shot out from under the fighter plane he was driving.

In the face of the counterattack of the earthlings.

The Chitauri army surrounding the portal also launched attacks.

In an instant.

Various missiles and Chitauri energy shells took off.

Boom boom boom!

In just a dozen seconds.

Missiles and energy shells bloomed like fireworks in the sky over New York.

With the efforts of the federal military, the most violent organization on earth.

For a while.

Pan Heng's Chitauri fell like rain in the sky over New York.

Even the huge Leviathan monster was directly killed by two of them in the bombardment of countless missiles.

Although the counterattack of the Chitauri also caused some damage to the fighter planes sent by the federal military.

But this time, the casualty ratio of both sides was reversed.

Of course, this is only the casualty ratio of the two armies.

If we count the casualties of civilians.

The loser is still the Earth.

After all, this is the home of the Earthlings, and Manhattan, the economic center of New York, has always been one of the most densely populated areas in New York.

As the battle between the Earth and the Chitauri started completely.

The aftermath of the missile explosions alone affected countless people.

The Leviathan monster that fell from the sky directly collapsed several dozens of floors high buildings, killing countless people.

Not to mention the people who died directly in the attack of the Chitauri.

However, this is war.

A cruel war.

Compared with the tip of the iceberg shown in the movies of Erin's previous life, the real New York War is countless times more cruel.

"Sir, Mark 10, 11, 12... armor is in place, please find a safe place to change the armor as soon as possible."

Tony Stark, who was awakened by Jarvis's reminder, glanced around and quickly found a suitable location on the roof of a small bungalow next to the Hudson River.

"That's it!"

When Tony Stark landed on the roof of the bungalow, four huge oval devices also landed on the roof of this inconspicuous bungalow.

After tapping the chest of Mark IX.

The Mark IX, which had many bullet holes on its armor, suddenly cracked layer by layer, spitting out Tony Stark who was wrapped in it.

After coming out of Mark IX, Tony Stark walked directly to the Mark 13, which was marked with a number 13 and was obviously larger than the other Mark armors, and then turned around and raised his arm with his back to Mark 13.

"Beep!"

When the cylindrical Mark 13 scanned the bracelet on Tony Stark's hand, the huge cylinder suddenly deformed.

Soon.

Tony Stark completed the change of clothes.

After putting on the last layer of armor, wearing Mark 13 equipped with a large number of weapons, Tony Stark said to the white-hot battlefield not far away.

"Next, it's the second round."

After that, Tony Stark said, "Jarvis, you use the auxiliary mode to control Mark 10, No. 11, No. 12 follow me."

"Yes, sir."

Following Tony Stark's order, the remaining three Mark armors also began to transform.

Not long after.

One big and three small, four Mark armors appeared on this inconspicuous bungalow.

Of course, if the half-open, scarred Mark 9 is included, there are five Mark armors.

"Let's go!"

The next second.

The thrusters on the four limbs of the four Mark armors burst out with powerful propulsion, pushing the four Mark armors to quickly approach the center of the New York battlefield.

Just as Tony Stark regrouped and replaced the Mark 13 with more ammunition to return to the battlefield, two transport planes carrying a large number of agents also entered the New York airspace.

At the same time.

Duke Granger's voice came from Coulson's headphones.

A few minutes later.

Coulson walked over to Captain America and Natasha and said in a deep voice: "Captain, the mission has changed. Our next mission is to get closer to Stark Tower and provide the scientists of SHIELD and the military with as much information as possible about the special devices on Stark Tower that opened the space portals, so that they can find a way to destroy the portals."

Captain America didn't care about the sudden change of mission. Even if the mission was to the most dangerous Stark Building near the center of the battlefield, Captain America had no objection.

It was just Coulson's last sentence that made Steve frown and said, "Why do we have to wait for the experts from SHIELD and the military to provide methods? Wouldn't it be better if we directly destroyed those machines and closed the space portal above?"

Coulson smiled bitterly and said, "If we can do that, it would be the best, but according to the information provided by Tony Stark, those machines are protected by the energy shield provided by the Cosmic Cube. It's not that easy for us to destroy it."

"Of course, if it doesn't work, the military and the Federation may finally resort to violence, using missiles or even nuclear bombs to forcibly destroy the Stark Building and the machines on the Stark Building to see if they can close the damn portal, but in that case..."

Coulson didn't say the rest, but both Steve and Natasha knew the consequences of doing so.

Today, the population of New York has long exceeded 10 million.

If the military and the Federation really launch a nuclear bomb in the end.

Then New York will be devastated, and hundreds of millions of people will die in this disaster.

And the most terrifying thing is that this may not be the end.

After all, no one can guarantee that the nuclear bomb will definitely destroy the portal opened by the Cosmic Cube.

If the portal cannot be closed.

Even if the Federation launches a nuclear bomb, it will still have to face the threat of the Chitauri in the end.

After taking a deep breath, Captain America clenched the vibranium shield in his hand and said in an extremely firm tone: "I won't let this happen."

"Of course, the same goes for us."

After Coulson said this, he continued, "Next, the fighter planes of SHIELD and the military will cover us as we approach Stark Tower, and then we will rely on ourselves."

"By the way, Commander Duke said that you are more experienced than us in facing war, so next, we will leave these dozens of people to you to command, Captain."

As he said this, Coulson handed a special infinite headset to the captain.

As soon as he put on the headphones handed over by Coulson, Captain America heard Duke's voice in his ears: "Captain, I'll leave it to you next."

After a moment of silence, looking at the countless civilians fleeing in panic under the transport plane, Captain America said in a deep voice:

"Leave it to me!"
