Chapter 1452 - Selina, Influenced by Luke
The impact cannon met the blue light, but this time, it couldn’t block it.
However, Selina had already retreated quickly. A launcher popped up on her armor, and a mini missile whooshed out.
The missile curved around to avoid the blue light and charged at Loki, who was sneering behind the blue shield.
Boom!
The missile hit the light shield, and there was a violent explosion.
All the damage from the explosion was blocked by the blue light.
Loki sneered and said, “Ant, do you think these backward weapons can hurt me?! You will be punished for insulting the dignity of a god… Hm, where is he?”
Selina was nowhere to be seen.
Just now, Selina had slowed down the blue ball of light with the impact cannon. At the same time, she had used a missile attack to block Loki’s five senses. Then… she turned around and ran.
With Frank’s constant updates on the battle situation, she was also paying attention to the movements of her teammates via the armor’s A.I. program.
After Selina rushed into the battleship and found Loki, and successfully delayed the other party, Thor and Tony arrived nearby.
Why would she continue duking it out with a “god”?
It wasn’t like she hadn’t learned anything after being around Luke for two years.
Every practical action he took proved one thing to her — hiding was also an artform.
After being subtly influenced by these sorts of tricks for so long, a person would pick up some things no matter how stupid they were, and Selina wasvery smart.
She remembered Luke’s words very well.
This was something that LAPD had turned into safety rules for students at the police academy, after all.
Although Loki had tens of thousands of Chitauri soldiers as reinforcements, Selina had more “reliable” teammates on her side.
After all, it was every older brother’s duty to beat up their disobedient little brother!
Besides, her real target wasn’t Loki, but the scepter.
She wouldn’t be able to grab it in just a few seconds by herself, so why not let the most suitable meat shield do the job?
In any case, Thor had thick skin and probably wouldn’t die.
So, just like that, a certain woman made ample use of Loki’s arrogant attitude toward Earthlings to put on an empty show before she directly went into hiding.
Stunned for a moment, Loki immediately reacted and cursed with a dark expression. “F*ck…”
Boom!
With a loud bang, a huge hole was created in the ship, and a person appeared in front of Loki.
The strong biceps, the familiar red cloak and the familiar hammer made the second prince subconsciously lean back.
Aware of his uncontrollable dread, Loki’s face darkened even more. “Thor.”
Thor: “Give up, little brother. Come back with me.”
Loki sneered. “Give up? Why would I?”
He spread his arms. “Look around you. You’re doomed to lose. I’ll be the king of Midgard. I’ll take back what I lost with my own hands.”
Swoosh! Boom!
A huge gold and red figure rushed in and a shock wave cannon hit Loki, sending the second prince flying.
Tony’s impatient voice rang out in the cockpit. “Cut the crap! Catch him first.”
It was none other than the tycoon.
The moment he rushed in, he saw the two brothers standing there and talking non-stop; he had no time for sentimentalism. It was fine if Thor wanted to hash out their family issues, but at least get rid of the Chitauri! This wasn’t a family soap opera; did they really think that the lives of Earthlings were worthless?
Thor was embarrassed, and felt that he was indeed behaving a little ridiculously.
In reality, Loki was right. It was he and the Chitauri who had the upper hand, not Thor and Earth.
Thus, he raised his hammer and charged forward, and the two brothers fought with loud bangs.
Less than two rounds later, Loki, who was using the scepter to block Thor’s hammer, felt a familiar heat behind him.
Before he could react, a shock wave cannon hit him in the back and pushed him forward. He rolled into a ball with his good brother and fell out of the battleship through the hole Thor had created.
At that moment, there was a hole in the floor behind Loki. Tony pulled his hands back in frustration. “Damn it, I didn’t hit the scepter.”
While the brothers were fighting, he had jumped out of the battleship and attacked Loki from behind.
Unfortunately, while the ambush had been successful, Loki hadn’t dropped the scepter.
At that moment, the Chitauri fliers in the sky suddenly went out of control, and the dozen or so battleships started falling like crazy.
The Chitauri army was thrown into chaos.
Everybody was stunned.
Frank suddenly said, “Batman took down one of the enemy’s motherships. This is the best chance to grab the scepter…”
Everybody was dumbfounded, then started cursing one after another.
A few guys who forgot to switch to silent mode could be heard clearly on the comms.
“Сука блядь!”
“Motherf*cker!”
“Sh*t!”
“Cool~~”
The last was a girl’s voice.
Mindy had finally dropped her habit of coarse swearing when she got a “little” excited, and now used a more normal word.
Bobo once again completely blocked out a series of super coarse words by a certain lunatic.
…
A few minutes ago, Luke had used the cover of the explosion and the wreckage of the battleship to instantly switch suits.
Alfred had then steered the Bat suit without hesitation toward the hole in the protective shield.
Luke’s clone hid amidst the wreckage of the battleship.
The combat suit he was wearing wasn’t as sturdy as the armor, but Luke’s telekinesis instantly neutralized most of the damage.
With Elementary Self-Healing and Light of Life, he withstood the subsequent damage and excruciating pain.
After the Chitauri confirmed that he had been eliminated and shifted their attention away, the clone floated out of the remains and slowly passed through the only gap.
The Chitauri soldier who had sensed something was the only one who had a chance of stopping Luke from entering.
As long as the Chitauri erred on the side of caution and fired a plasma cannon in passing, the clone would definitely die on the spot and be cremated.
That didn’t happen, however, since he believed he had seen the intruder turn to dust with his own eyes.
Luke wasn’t just hiding in his suit; he had also learned how to “hibernate” from vampires a long time ago.
The ability to hibernate allowed a vampire to sleep for hundreds of years without needing to eat and drink as their bodies remained pretty much dormant.
The clone’s life signs were practically at a crawl. Even if it was detected, it would look like part of the remains of the battlefield.
That was also why only a slight fluctuation had been picked up by the surveillance equipment of the Chitauri’s mothership when the clone passed through the gap.
But after his clone entered hibernation mode, Luke’s main body couldn’t continue fighting.
This sort of hibernation ability demanded a lot of a person’s mental state. At this stage, Luke couldn’t fight and at the same time preserve the clone’s mental state completely without any fluctuations..
