Chapter 47 Attack
Las Vegas at night is a dazzling spectacle of neon lights and extravagant luxury.
Harry Osborne was driving his car at a leisurely pace toward the Global Achievement Awards ceremony.
Soothing music was playing from the car stereo, but he was thinking about something else.
The Global Award for Outstanding Achievement... because of his discovery of a cancer treatment drug, this award should have been given to him.
Given Tony Stark's personality, it's highly unlikely he'll end up as a mere runner-up.
However, in a few days, Tony Stark should still be heading back to the Middle East...
Just then, not far ahead, a figure walked with the stride of a model, slowly crossing the traffic and stopping in the middle of the street.
The man's face was covered by a mask, and a mechanical arm that gleamed with a cold metallic light was particularly eye-catching.
He turned around, raised his hand, and pointed the grenade launcher at Harry's car with its dark muzzle.
Harry's pupils suddenly contracted.
That look, that metal arm... Captain America's best buddy, Bucky Barnes!
He is now probably Hydra's top assassin—the Winter Soldier.
Huh?! They're coming for me?!
Harry cursed inwardly and slammed the steering wheel shut with a sharp turn.
But the Winter Soldier... why would Hydra target him?
Osborn Corporation? Or has his secret collaboration with Stryker been exposed?
Or perhaps it was the symbiote data he provided to Coulson?
Or was he seen as a threat to Hydra, just like Howard Stark?
In a flash, countless thoughts raced through Harry's mind.
"boom!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
Before Harry could even think it through, several grenades came hurtling towards him, trailing plumes of fire.
The deafening explosion engulfed Harry's vehicle in flames, turning it into a burning pile of scrap metal.
The shockwave from the explosion spread outwards, vehicles were blown away as if by an invisible giant hand, and people screamed in terror as they scattered and fled in chaos.
The Winter Soldier coldly watched the burning vehicle and fired two more grenades.
Afterward, he put away the grenade launcher, turned around, and prepared to leave...
However, in the instant he turned around...
Amidst the raging flames, a tall, dark figure slowly rose to its feet.
The figure's appearance closely resembled that of the Guyver III from the series, with a ferocious bio-armor covering its entire body. The surface shimmered with a metallic luster, yet it also exuded a strange biological texture.
It was Harry who had spent countless hours secretly developing X-Armor One!
[The entire system is ready; visual neural connections are established; sensory synchronization is complete...]
The cold, synthesized voice of "Prometheus I" rang directly in Harry's mind.
"Start recording real-world data."
Harry's voice, coming through his suit, carried a metallic quality.
He twisted his neck, feeling the surging power brought by the armor, and fixed his gaze on the Winter Warrior who was about to leave.
As X-Armor's first opponent, the Winter Soldier was passable.
Harry took a step, his footsteps making a "thump-thump" sound as he approached the Winter Soldier.
The Winter Soldier turned around abruptly and saw the black monster emerging from the flames, a look of astonishment flashing in his eyes.
What is this?
Is this...the target?
Although he didn't know what kind of alien monster was in front of him, the Winter Soldier's battle-hardened instincts made him feel a deadly threat.
Without the slightest hesitation, he raised his assault rifle and opened fire on Harry.
"Da da da da da!"
A barrage of bullets rained down on X-suit's black armor.
However, a strange scene happened.
Those bullets, powerful enough to tear through steel plates, seemed to hit an invisible barrier the moment they touched the surface of the X-suit, their kinetic energy being instantly absorbed.
The bullets clattered and fell to the ground, turning into a pile of scrap metal, leaving not a single mark on the armor.
This is precisely the mutant ability of Sebastian Shaw, the Black King in X-Men—to absorb, store, and release all forms of energy!
Winter Soldier's pupils suddenly contracted.
Physical attacks are ineffective?
He decisively dropped the gun in his hand, his eyes flashed with a sharp light, and the mechanical arm, gleaming with a cold metallic light, swung up violently, slamming into Harry's head with a whistling sound as it tore through the air.
This strike is enough to shatter monuments and split rocks!
Harry neither dodged nor avoided it.
The next moment, the black surface of X's suit quickly developed a layer of silvery-white metallic luster, instantly becoming like the hardest alloy.
Colossus's mutant abilities in X-Men!
"clang!"
A deafening metallic clang.
The Winter Soldier's powerful mechanical arm was easily blocked by the X-suit, and the huge recoil caused him to sway.
Harry seized the opportunity, his silver-metal-covered fist slamming heavily into the Winter Soldier's chest with a backhand punch.
"Oh!"
The Winter Soldier was struck as if by a speeding train. He let out a muffled groan and was sent flying backward, crashing heavily into an abandoned car several meters away, denting the car body.
The silver metallic sheen on the X-suit's surface slowly faded, returning it to its original jet black. Then, a blinding crimson light shone from the suit's eyes.
Two high-energy particle beams, like scorching swords, shot out suddenly from the eyepiece, heading straight for the fallen Winter Warrior.
This iconic ability is naturally the power of Cyclops, the leader of the X-Men!
Its special cells can absorb surrounding energy and convert it into laser light...
As the two laser beams, brimming with terrifying heat, hurtled toward him at breakneck speed, alarm bells rang in the Winter Warrior's mind.
There was no time to dodge, so in the critical moment, he could only raise his indestructible metal arm and hold it horizontally in front of him.
"Chichichichi——!"
The laser beam slammed into the metal arm.
The terrifyingly high temperature instantly turned the metal arm red-hot, emitting a grotesque, distorting sound.
"Ahhhh——!"
The intense pain caused even the rigorously trained Winter Soldiers to let out a piercing scream.
at this time……
A sharp killing intent suddenly erupted from the shadows behind him!
A flash of silver light!
Several pairs of sharp claws, gleaming with a cold light, silently pierced out from behind Harry, precisely piercing the chest area of the X-suit!
"Ok?"
Harry stopped firing the laser, a look of surprise flashing in his eyes.
He whirled around, his fist, covered in bio-engineered armor, slammed backward with tremendous force.
"boom!"
The attacker let out a muffled groan as Harry punched him, sending him flying and crashing heavily to the ground.
Harry then realized that the person who attacked him was a woman wearing a sexy evening gown.
Her hands had now transformed into incredibly sharp metal claws, stained with traces of blood from her X-suit.
The woman's cheek, where Harry had struck her, was now a bloody mess, but strangely, the wounds were visibly wriggling and healing.
What's even more chilling is that beneath the exposed flesh and blood, there were not stark white bones, but a metal skeleton gleaming with a silvery sheen!
The woman stuck out her tongue and licked the blood off the metal claws. The crimson tip of her tongue, paired with her cold eyes, made her look eerie and dangerous.
Her gaze was fixed on the spot in Harry's chest where he had been stabbed.
There, the wounds torn open by the claws on X's armor were also wriggling and repairing at an astonishing speed, almost instantly becoming as good as new.
"Ok?"
Harry looked at the woman, his brow furrowing even deeper.
This abnormal self-healing ability, and this adamantium skeleton...
Isn't this the product of William Stryker's Weapon X program, Death Woman?
The question is, why would that old fox Stryker send someone to attack him?
Although their cooperation was driven by ulterior motives, they were, at least on the surface, partners.
Moreover, he also provided a lot of results, so why did this old guy send Death Woman to kill him?
"Excuse me, do you know where Mr. Harry Osborn is?"
"I need to speak with him about something small, a really insignificant little thing..."
Just then, a cheeky, somewhat cynical voice suddenly rang out at the edge of the chaotic battlefield.
Upon hearing this, Harry instinctively turned his head to look.
A guy dressed in a flashy red bodysuit and carrying two swords was tilting his head and waving at them.
The face, mostly covered by a mask, still exuded an air of frivolity even through the mask.
"..."
Harry looked at the familiar red figure, and the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily.
Deadpool?!
Then look at the Death Woman next to her, and the Winter Soldier who's half-dead.
What's going on tonight?
There are enough people here to make a whole mahjong table!
Harry felt like his brain wasn't working properly.
Just as he was speechless and questioning the heavens...
"call out--!"
The roar of an engine could be heard overhead.
Then a black, futuristic-looking plane slowly removed its optical camouflage, revealing its form.
The X-Men's Blackbird!
The hatch opened, and a burly man in a classic yellow and blue uniform, smoking a cigar, jumped directly from mid-air.
"boom!"
A classic superhero landing pose, sending dust flying.
That iconic steel claw, and that classic yellow bodysuit.
Logan the Wolverine!
The X-Men are here too?!
What the hell is going on here?!
Harry felt a throbbing sensation in his temples.
Even movies wouldn't dare to portray this kind of development...
(I think the KAP-3 is cooler than the KAP-2 and KAP-1, the main aircraft...)
