Marvel: The Imposter Inventor

Chapter 109 The Battle Begins, Flashy Lightsabers (Fourth Update)

In the sky, Luca, piloting the 'Two-Husky Mech,' followed closely behind the Mark Armor.

Although Luca himself thought that it would be somewhat idiotic to follow Tony around and 'listen attentively' on such an urgent battlefield.

However, since this was his first time truly participating in such a major event, he didn't want to appear too out of place.

'He's a senior colleague, so he should have some useful experience, right?'

Sure enough, Luca found Tony's first piece of advice very helpful.

"Kid, come with me! Empty the missile bays number 2, 3, and 4 from your body!"

With that, Tony made a sudden change of direction in mid-air and charged towards the portal, where the Frost Giants were most concentrated.

Tony, while flying at high speed, explained the reason to Luca.

"Take advantage of the enemy's dense formation to inflict as much damage as possible. If we try to use these high-powered missiles later, we're likely to accidentally injure civilians."

"The other armaments in your suit are sufficient. Just keep the No. 1 missile bay for emergencies!"

As they spoke, the Mark armor in front had already cleared its missiles from the frost giants who were gathered together.

A series of towering flames exploded on the ground.

With a deafening roar, the frost giants, who had been howling excitedly, immediately turned into agonizing wails.

Seeing this, Luca decisively changed his flight direction slightly and flew towards another dense group of frost giants that had not been bombed by missiles.

Hello!

At Luca's command, Haro, who was already connected via voice, immediately understood his meaning.

On the glasses' projection screen, red indicator boxes that had locked onto enemies appeared continuously.

At the same time, the three missile bays on the left and right shoulders of the mech quickly unfolded, and dozens of micro missiles were launched rapidly, winding and twisting in the air as they shot towards the targets on the ground.

"Rumble————"

Countless explosions and flames shot into the sky, causing the surrounding neighborhood to tremble violently.

Although those frost giants were physically powerful, they were still flesh and blood after all.

They were instantly reduced to mangled limbs and pieces in the explosion.

Tony, who saw this from the air, couldn't stop the corner of his mouth from twitching under his mask.

Since Luca's 'Two Huskies No. 1' is not a human-made armor, and there is no human body as a 'burden' inside, the space is quite ample.

Naturally, they also have a larger stockpile of weapons, and they choose the most powerful ones possible.

In terms of performance alone, it is indeed more impressive than the Mark armor.

'Should I also build an army of remotely controlled robots?'

Tony thought to himself.

Of course, these thoughts in his head did not affect his actual operation, and he continued to give Luca instructions.

"During combat, minimize the use of energy weapons. Your mech's energy core is an ion battery, so you need to pay extra attention to energy consumption. Once the energy is depleted, even the strongest mech will be rendered useless."

As Tony was speaking, a group of four or five frost giants below simultaneously conjured ice spikes in their hands and hurled them at him, immediately silencing the rest of his sentence.

Although the enemy's attack was detected in time and a response was taken.

But Tony, who had just dodged a wave of ice spikes, didn't expect that this was not a one-off attack.

Below, the frost giants continuously condensed ice spikes in their hands and hurled them, creating an effect comparable to a dense barrage of bullets.

Despite dodging left and right, Tony was still hit in the arm by an ice spike.

However, the exploding ice spikes did not cause any damage. Instead, they instantly turned into a cloud of white mist, enveloping his entire body.

In the blink of an eye, a layer of solid ice, several centimeters thick, had formed on the outside of the Iron Man suit.

Tony was transformed into a crystal-clear ice sculpture, crashing straight down from the sky to the ground.

"Holy crap! Watch out!"

Seeing Tony frozen solid in front of him, Luca immediately swooped down. However, he wasn't going to rescue Tony from where the armor had fallen; instead, he charged straight at the frost giants who were throwing ice spikes.

At the same time, the mech raised its arms, and the machine gun turrets hidden in the forearms quickly deployed.

The dense barrage of bullets immediately covered the entire Frost Giant.

However, the frost giant, which could previously be blown to pieces by micro-missiles, was not flustered at all in the face of the current hail of machine gun bullets.

Even though they were riddled with bullets, their blood splattering everywhere and their bodies trembling, none of them fell to the ground and died on the spot.

They are incredibly thick-skinned and tough.

However, Luca remained calm despite the failure of his arm-mounted machine gun.

Instead, it suddenly accelerated again, rushing towards the frost giants.

Without the slightest pause, the husky-like mech crashed to the ground, its feet immediately carving two long furrows in the earth.

But it is precisely during this hard-core slowdown that we can take advantage of the opportunity.

Luca reached directly to the jetpack behind him and instantly drew two ion-constrained lightsabers that flashed with dazzling blue light.

"Om~"

In an instant, the two lightsabers danced in succession.

A buzzing sound kept ringing out.

The azure light curtain seemed to stretch out as one.

The air was immediately filled with the burnt smell of high temperature.

When the husky mech swept past the five frost giants.

The remaining light and shadow quickly dissipated.

Behind him, all that remained were broken pieces of corpses scattered on the ground, the cut surfaces still radiating red, high-temperature radiation.

"Dong Dong Dong~"

Severed limbs and broken legs lay scattered on the ground, some even turning into broken blocks of ice.

Until the moment of their deaths, these frost giants probably didn't even realize what had happened.

"As expected, Thor was right. We still need to use high temperatures to deal with these frost giants!"

Luca casually twirled his lightsaber, listening to the 'buzzing' sound that Tony had added out of his mischievousness, before extinguishing it and sheathing it back into his flight backpack.

Lightsabers were not originally part of Luca's design.

However, Tony insisted on proving his ability to create lightsabers and insisted on adding this 'cool' weapon to Luca's weapon. Luca, who was also quite skilled and wanted to get some freebies, readily accepted this small modification.

Unexpectedly, it's now perfect for dealing with the Frost Giants.

It uses a bit of electricity, so we have to use it sparingly.

Luca, who had quickly dealt with the frost giants, didn't waste any time and immediately ran towards Tony, who was still a lump of ice sculpture on the other side.

Upon approaching, I reached out and tapped the thick, solid ice.

Surprisingly, a metallic clanging sound was heard.

"This seems to be a bit tricky."

Luca wasn't worried about Tony getting frostbite; Tony had already added anti-freezing features to himself back in the Mark III armor.

However, breaking this hard and thick ice armor shell is indeed a bit troublesome.

As he spoke, Luca prepared to draw his lightsaber again to help Tony escape.

Unexpectedly, Tony's voice came through the communication channel at that moment.

"Kid, step back a bit!"
