Marvel: The Imposter Inventor

Chapter 115 Stay put (Fifth update)
'I don't like it! Goodbye!'

As Luca slid down the exterior of the Dark Elf warship, he gritted his teeth and turned his head away, not even considering glancing at his cheat system panel again.

'I shouldn't have bothered to take a look! This is something that can't be synthesized at all; looking at it was just asking for trouble!'

Yes, although Luca had never watched the anime Macross in his previous life, he had vaguely heard of its name.

Moreover, there's no need to even look at it; just a glance at the panel description is enough to know that if this thing could be synthesized, it would definitely be a game-changer for the Earth.

However, this thing is different from the [3D puzzle hammer].

Although Thor's hammer is also difficult to obtain, at least the crafting materials are very simple. If Luca manages to get his hands on it, he will still have a chance to acquire that item.

But right now, this [SDF-1 spaceship], let alone after the war, Luca would never keep such a thing in his possession.

Just by looking at the materials needed to synthesize it, Luca knew that it would take him several years to make it.

Putting everything else aside, a 1500-meter-long humanoid deformable skeleton is already a distant dream for Luca.

Moreover, Luca estimates that these synthetic materials are only possible because the Dark Elf warships themselves possess fundamental elements such as power sources, space jump devices, and operating systems; otherwise...
'Once I have those technologies, I can build a decent spaceship myself, right? Why would I need to go through all that trouble to synthesize you?'

Shaking off the distracting thoughts in his mind, Luca was ready to pretend he hadn't seen the panel this time.

'At least this thing is a core component, which at least alerted me to the potential crisis early, so it's worth it!!'

At this moment, Luca, gritting his teeth, was finally close to the ground.

With a sudden burst of strength, he leaped away from the area where Stark Tower had collapsed, carrying Dr. Eric with him.

'My shoes are still the best!'

However, due to Luca's continuous deceleration in the air, the building debris that was supposed to fall had already landed.

Aside from the slightly choking smoke and dust, there was basically no danger where he was standing.

After putting Dr. Eric down, who was so scared he was about to wet his pants, he took the white Haro from the other person's hands.

I looked around again.

This place is truly a scene from hell.

Some people were wailing and crying in the snow for their relatives and friends who had been killed by the collapsing building.

Some people were desperately fleeing into the distance, perhaps to get away from the danger.

Many more people died directly in this sudden disaster.

Luca doesn't know how many people will be killed or injured in those two buildings in the distance that were hit by the collapsed Avengers Tower.

Fortunately, the staff in the building were evacuated beforehand, and a group of people were moved to the underground shelter.

However, Luca glanced at the ruins of the collapsed Avengers Tower and guessed that all those people were probably buried underground.

'I wonder how sturdy Tony's underground defenses are. If we can survive and weather this disaster down there, it might be considered lucky.'

"Luca, what do we do?"

Gwen, who had landed first, then swung down from the air with Jane Foster in her arms and landed next to Luca.

However, before Luca could answer her question, Tony's anxious voice rang out from the AR glasses that he hadn't had time to take off.

"Hey kid! Are you and Gwen alright?! Is anyone hurt? Squeak if you hear me! I'll have Jarvis send over a suit of armor to protect you!"

Hearing Tony's series of instructions, Luca's lips curled up slightly, and after calming himself down, he quickly replied.

“Gwen, the two doctors, and I are all safe now. As for here…” Luca turned to look at the dark elf ship, which had straightened out and then crashed into several buildings.

At this point, the spaceship had begun releasing a number of smaller spacecraft.

These smaller Razor-shaped flying machines, just like their "mothers," started recklessly crashing into everything around them as soon as they came out, relying on their own sturdy bodies.

Even with the [Tracking Glasses] farsightedness function activated, Luca noticed that dark elves on the ground were starting to emerge from the dark elf mothership one after another.

"A new wave of aliens has appeared here, the kind with spaceships. Forget about armor, your Avengers Tower is gone now, those armors are probably buried inside. The aliens are currently running out of their spaceships and killing people. Anyway, it's a mess here."

Upon hearing Luca's words, Tony paused for half a second before continuing.

"You and Gwen, don't act rashly! Find a safe place to hide, I'll be right back!"

After saying that, Tony hung up the call immediately, presumably heading back at full speed.

After hearing the busy tone on the other end of the communication, Luca looked at Gwen beside him again.

However, he had no intention of finding a place to hide and wait for Tony to come to his rescue.

"Gwen, Tony will be here soon. You take the two doctors and find a safe place to hide nearby, and wait for him to come and rescue you."

"As for me, I'm going to pick up a package now, I'll be right back!"

Upon hearing this, Gwen was immediately filled with questions.

"But."

"There are no 'buts' about it; this is Tony's opinion as well."

"No, I mean, what about these civilians?"

"Never mind that now. Do you really want to use your spider silk to stick that alien spaceship to you?"

After saying all that, Luca didn't care whether Gwen had listened or not, and activated the [Sweet Captive] healing function on his own.

A green healing light surrounded him, and the pain caused by the continuous muscle tearing gradually dissipated.

After receiving treatment, Luca immediately pushed Dr. Eric in front of Gwen.

Then, he exerted force with his feet again, his right foot flashing with seven-colored lightning, and he shot straight into the air.

Don't forget, Luca is currently in his [Tuxedo] anti-gravity mode.

Without Dr. Eric as a burden, there was only the tiny external weight of the white Haro.

The person was as light as a feather.

With a single leap, Luca seemed to take flight, instantly soaring dozens of meters into the air.

Taking advantage of this brief moment of airtime, Luca quickly looked around to confirm his direction.

Immediately as it fell, a grappling hook shot out from its elbow and embedded itself in the wall of a building in the distance.

Since he was not under much weight at this time, the grappling hook was no longer a burden for him.

Luca then dressed up as Spider-Man once again and sped off towards his target.

Only three people remained on the ground, dumbfounded.
