Chapter 209: Vomit... (1)
Chapter 209: Vomit... (1)
After the summer passed, the nights in New York began to feel slightly cooler. When the sunny sky was covered by darkness, the starry sky became extra bright. Amidst the twinkling stars, the brilliance of countless mechanical creations, like a boiling sea, surged towards Earth.
Steve put down his shield and looked up at the seemingly endless mechanical creations in the sky, swallowing hard.
To be honest, he didn't expect Stark to present himself in this form. He thought the magic reactor was at most just making a bigger Iron Man.
The New York night sky was gradually obscured, and the mechanical creations in the sky were even denser than the layers of dark clouds before a storm. The machines shuttling around were like huge schools of fish, sweeping towards the battlefield.
When Peter jumped down from the sky, a flying vehicle rotated past him. He whispered, "This should be the 23rd generation, more agile than before and with less airflow..."
Countless shuttle-shaped robots passed by him, blowing Peter's hair with their airflow. He looked up and felt as though Stark was watching him.
Peter stood on the rooftop of a high-rise building, and the wind howled around him. He involuntarily reached out his hand, and the mechanical god in the sky responded to his call. A storm made up of metal parts descended, and countless pieces rotated and gathered from the sky.
Those parts surrounded Peter's Spider-Man suit and slowly covered his body. He was lifted into the air by them, and with a clicking sound of the parts interlocking, the armor sparkled like fish scales. With the flipping of the armor pieces, the metal arthropod on his back stretched out layer by layer, lifting Peter's body up. When he stood up, a huge steel spider appeared over New York.
At the same time, Steve had also been enhanced. The mechanical parts on his arm without the shield formed a huge cannon, and with a wave of his hand, a powerful light wave shot towards Riot's tentacle. The tentacle made of dark energy was shattered like a wave, and Steve shouted, "Effective attack! Keep going!"
Peter followed up with a jump, and the shining magical limbs sliced through the curtain of darkness. The armored fist covering him made Riot stumble.The armor on Spider-Man and Captain America was made from Stark's magic reactor, which was able to effectively damage the chaos power on Riot's body, unlike the previous physical attacks that were useless up close.
Other heroes on the battlefield had also been similarly enhanced, and with Stark's army of machines becoming more and more agile, Riot was almost pushed back, and the chaos power was suppressed within a range of ten meters around him.
As the wind grew stronger, a huge white figure appeared in the sky above Earth. But it wasn't Iron Man. Or rather, it was an aggregate of countless mechanical creations, a steel god made up of countless hordes of machines.
It was no longer a single Mech armor, but a conglomerate made up of countless hordes of machines. Even with Peter's vision, he couldn't fully see the process of the machines self-replicating, producing, and transforming.
When Stark's intelligence was manifested into reality by magic, people could directly feel the power generated by his infinite intelligence. When he was finally no longer confined to the frail human body and his mind was freed infinitely, Stark saw the truth of the multiverse.
He saw that the universe before him had become a colorful glass bead, rolling on the ground, and each glass bead contained countless tiny single universes.
He could even see himself in those universes, thinking in front of a lab table or flying over New York in Mech armor. Their lives, destinies, and outcomes were turned into flowing light and stored in the steel conglomerate consciousness.
This vision only lasted for a moment, and Stark felt that the magic energy in his chest was consuming at an unimaginable speed, which made him have to suppress his curiosity and redirect his gaze back to Earth.
As Stark's thoughts returned, the hordes of machines no longer blindly expanded infinitely, but were instead designed, selected, and upgraded by humans. Countless mechanical fortresses were merged and assembled, and on the mechanical assembly line, various sub-bodies of the machine hordes completed several iterations in just a few seconds.
Nick Fury walked out of the SHIELD office, looked up at the sky, and couldn't help but curse because Earth had been completely covered by Stark's army of machines.
In Asgard's palace, Loki stood next to Odin, while Strange stood next to the Ancient One. When the sound of machinery echoed throughout Asgard, Surtur's voice came from the red vortex: "He has ascended... transformed into... the only one..."
Nothing that happened in the nine realms could escape the eyes of the Allfather. Odin saw Stark's steel god descending and felt the power of him breaking through the barriers of individual universes in that moment.
Mephisto also spoke up: "... is that the deposit we submitted before?"
"Human beings are indeed a race with unlimited potential. They can use this power to break through the barriers of the universe and elevate themselves to the only one..."
At this moment, the cosmic demons in the palace all had their own thoughts. Obviously, they didn't expect that humans really had the power to face Knull. This made many restless demons calm down.
"Alright..." The somewhat indifferent voice of the Ancient One sounded, and she turned her head to look at Strange, then said, "Everyone take your positions."
Streams of different colors of light flew out of Asgard's palace, entered different dimensions, and then began to absorb the surging chaotic power of the universe that was coming.
Both the Ancient One and Odin had chosen a good position for themselves, and everything went smoothly as they had expected. In order to control Riot, Knull began to continuously transport his power through the opened channel.
But soon, the development of the situation exceeded everyone's expectations.
Above Greenwich Village, Peter was colliding with Riot back and forth. At this moment, he heard a familiar voice say, "Good evening."
Peter turned his head and looked at Schiller in surprise. "Doctor, why are you here? It's dangerous!"
"It's okay, I just came to take a look."
Just as Peter was about to say something, the huge lizard Doctor jumped over and said to Peter, "You go cooperate with the one with the flaming skull, I'll take care of this side."
Peter looked a little worriedly at Schiller, but seeing his calm expression, he left.
Schiller said to the mist in his heart, "Is this distance enough? Can he detect you?"
"A little closer."
So Schiller flashed to a nearby building closer to Riot, and his entire body was shrouded in the chaotic power around Riot.
On the rooftop a little further away, Steve was using his shield to counterattack the constantly dancing tentacles. At this moment, he saw the body of Riot in the air suddenly stiffen.
Then, layers upon layers of black waves surged out, and Riot roared, going mad.
Countless tentacles, carrying a strong dark power, began to sweep recklessly through the area in which he was located, and all the buildings were crushed into powder by the power.
Schiller had turned into a gray mist and was floating close to Riot, but perhaps because he was too close, Riot went crazy and the half-genius discovered that what he was looking for was right under his feet.
When Riot cast his gaze over, Schiller suddenly disappeared. Riot was stunned, and Knull, who was controlling Riot from the distant planet of Klynthar to invade Earth, was also stunned.
Suddenly, Schiller appeared from another direction. Riot turned around and saw Schiller wave at him. In the deep space of the universe, Knull roared furiously. He thought that this bug was playing with him.
Knull recognized the gray mist on Schiller's body, the special symbiote that suddenly disappeared. It was the crystallization of his efforts after being imprisoned for countless years, and it was his hope to break free from his prison.
Riot reached out to slap Schiller, but just as his palm with the power of chaos was about to fall, Schiller disappeared again.
The signal from the special symbiote made Knull more and more impatient. The chaos-filled brain made him unable to think. The current situation was exactly what he had caused by giving the gray mist special abilities.
Knull's purpose in creating the gray mist was to escape from prison. The reason why he chose mist as the form was to give this symbiote excellent speed and the trait of being unable to be attacked by enemies.
As a result, now he himself could not attack this symbiote.
If now, Knull's true body descended, he could still use the Black Death Sword to attack. This sword is the weakness of all symbiotes and can effectively harm them.
But now, Knull is still trapped deep within Klyntar, like a player controlling a game character. Even though his real body is a fighting champion and a master swordsman, he cannot affect the tiny bug he cannot catch on the screen.
At this moment, the mechanical god Stark also began to act, and countless fleets of machines entered Earth's airspace one after another. The mechanical fortress, shining with magical light, overloaded and operated beyond anyone's imagination. The massive army of machines, exceeding anything anyone could imagine, wrapped Riot up like an endless swarm of insects.
Perhaps influenced by Schiller's suggestion, the steel demon god Stark is not a complete individual, but a collective consciousness composed of countless fleets of machines. This gives him a multi-dimensional perspective, allowing him to be precise down to every component and to command the machine army as a mother nest consciousness.
For the chaotic Riot controlled by Knull, the machines seemed to have little effect. Initially, this was indeed the case. The first fleet of machines that approached the chaos was quickly corrupted by the power of chaos. The components began to rapidly age and decay. However, the second fleet of machines that followed behind them already had chaos resistance.
The third fleet of machines targeted the tentacles and increased their speed, allowing them to move flexibly between the waving tentacles and explode directly on Riot's face. The fourth fleet of machines extended the frozen feature. Although it could not affect the power of chaos, by triggering a frozen explosion with thousands of machines, Riot's entity was almost immobilized.
After several tentative attacks, the real mechanical frenzy arrived. Facing an all-round and suicide attack, machines of various shapes and forms were like an Abyss giant mouth, wrapping Riot and his dark energy all together.
After the gods started to act, Knull found that his control over Riot was getting weaker and weaker, while the steel demon god Stark was getting stronger and stronger.
But what Knull was looking for was nearby. He began to become more and more impatient, and his anxious and irritable emotions ignited his chaotic biological nature. He began to output power to Earth regardless of consequences.
When Knull's anger escalated further, Schiller returned to his human form and withdrew to a slightly more distant place.
Then, he opened the chat system and without hesitation, he pulled down and found Knull's avatar. After clicking on the chat interface and confirming the connection, Knull, who was far away in the Klyntar constellation, heard that familiar voice:
"Hello, are you there, Nataru?"
