Chapter 1438: Introducing the Accessories, and Each Has Their Role to Play

Luke and Frank didn’t immediately fly up, but hovered in the air outside the building.
At that moment, in the underground parking lot of a nearby building, the back of a van suddenly rumbled. Two huge oval shadows suddenly broke out of the van, trailing flames behind them. They then turned and flew straight up.
A car had just reached the exit of the underground parking lot at that moment and was about to make a turn.
Two shadows flew past with a loud bang, the massive shock wave making the driver dizzy and shattering his front windshield.
After a long while, he finally regained some of his hearing, and couldn’t help but curse. “WTF! What the hell was that?”
But right after that, he heard a huge commotion outside the exit.
Many people were crying out in alarm and screaming, and there were crashing sounds, followed by… a violent explosion?
Stunned, the middle-aged man got out and ran to the exit to see what was going on.
Suddenly, there was the sound of something crashing and breaking above his head, before the noise got louder.
Boom!
With a loud bang, a flatbed-like thing fell from the sky and landed ten meters in front of him.
Several metallic humanoid monsters flew through the air. One of them hit the wall on the side of the exit, bounced off and rolled several meters away.
The metal figure was silent for a few seconds. Suddenly, it got up from the ground, looked at the man and immediately raised an arm.
It wasn’t a hand, but something looked like a hand cannon that was aimed at the middle-aged man.
He was stupefied. He yelled “get out of the way” to himself in his head, but his body had frozen.
Suddenly, a pink shadow flitted out of the exit.
Swoosh!
A double-ended longsword pierced the metal monster’s head, nailing it to the ground, and the hand cannon dropped.
The middle-aged man suddenly felt like he could move again, but his body turned limp and he couldn’t stop shaking.
The only thing he could do was turn around and look at the pink figure. He subconsciously called out, “Little Pink Bear?”
As if she had heard him, the petite pink figure hovering in the air turned around and said, “Go back and find a safe corner to hide in.”
The middle-aged man subconsciously nodded and immediately ran back into the underground parking lot.
At that moment, he suddenly felt embarrassed. Little Pink Bear was the nickname his five-year-old daughter had for this girl hero. Why did he subconsciously use it?
At that moment, two more oval-shaped shadows flew by, trailing flames as they charged out of the parking lot.
The middle-aged man couldn’t help but be glad. If he had stayed inside, he would’ve been deafened by the sound wave or roasted by the flames!
Mindy stretched out her hand, and the double-ended longsword in the Chitauri’s head suddenly retracted into a baton and flew back into her hand.
This longsword wasn’t very useful today, but it was still her favorite signature weapon, and she couldn’t lose it.
At the same time, she looked at the dense swarm descending from the sky, and was full of eagerness.
Recalling Uncle Hammersmith’s training and admonishment, however, she could only give up on the idea.
The one thing Uncle Hammersmith had emphasized from the very beginning was to listen to all his orders.
He even warned that if anyone violated this rule, he wouldn’t allow them to be part of the team in the future. The team didn’t need this sort of tumor.
Mindy didn’t want to be a tumor, nor did she want to be kicked out of this superhero team. She didn’t dare take any risks.
Sighing, she turned around and looked at the oval-shaped shadow that flew out of the parking lot. She snorted. “This accessory is really ugly.”
She wished it was pink instead, to go with her armor.
However, she knew that was unlikely. These were all consumables that had been put together in a hurry; it was impossible to make them so fine.
One of the two shadows slowed down when it approached her and quickly unfolded into four pieces, before they hit her armor with a clatter.
Mindy complained bitterly, “This is too ugly.”
If it wasn’t for the protective armor, this impact would’ve killed her.
However, she couldn’t use these external fittings without the suit, so she could only accept it.
After hitting her, the remaining black oval swiftly stuck to the back of Mindy’s armor, and the four unfolded parts latched firmly onto the front.
At first glance, it looked like she had been half-eaten by a big mouth.
The girl’s cute pink style was in stark contrast to the industrial heavy metal style.
With the sound of screeching metal, two machine guns appeared on her shoulders.
Mindy stretched out her arms.
With a thought, two semi-circular devices on the back of her hands instantly hummed and lit up with a faint white light.
The suit lengthened from 1.7 meters to almost two meters tall, and the new thrusters on her back burst with flame.
Flying an arc in the air, she turned around and pointed the two-barreled machine guns at four flying machines.
The machine gun fired a chain of bullets. Caught off guard, the flying machines on the left and right were swept away, and sparks flew.
At that moment, the semi-circular devices on Mindy’s hands lit up. She pushed her hands forward and fired two impact cannons, blowing up two flying machines in the center.
She couldn’t help but whoop with satisfaction.
A weapon that could blow up bad guys was a good weapon.
Not only were there a lot of bad guys this time, they were also countless times stronger than the test subjects. If they were ugly, so be it! Thinking that, she sent a message on the communication channel: “Pink Bear is under the portal. Ready to provide fire support at any time.”
The first two shadows that had shot out of the parking lot a moment ago were the external components for Luke and Frank.
After the external components latched onto them, the two split up.
Luke went up, and Frank went down.
Frank needed some time to verify the number one target which Luke had revealed beforehand, and to decide when everyone should focus their attack to cover Luke so that he could break into the enemy’s command center.
The external components gave Luke more firepower and protection, while the A.I. program cleaned up any Chitauri that got close.
What Luke wanted to do was to try launching an attack and see if he could hit the Chitauri’s mothership directly.
In any case, he had told Frank that he would carry out the first test with a remote-controlled suit.
In truth, his clone would be the one going.. If he couldn’t do anything, he would recall his clone and abandon the armor.
