The Avengers, who had just been posing and lined up in a row, were instantly stunned.

"Simple--"

Li Xia took a step forward, tilted her head back, and said softly:

"Excuse me, can you open the door?"

The moment the words left his mouth, a spark appeared silently in the air, and then, like a streak of fire, it quickly drew a huge circle in mid-air.

Done! He knew the Ancient One was watching!

Chapter 11 One Punch

It is clearly a lush green farm, but inside this circle is a 'jungle' of reinforced concrete.

Spider-Man stared at the ring, and the combat suit Stark had made for him perfectly reflected his expression.

The area around the eyes appeared silky smooth and slightly larger.

"Wow! What is this? Magic? Teleportation? A portal?"

Steve, Stark, and the others glanced at Li Xia:

"This is... the Cosmic Cube?"

"No, the Cosmic Cube doesn't release energy like that; its final form should be blue-gray—"

Stark directly refuted Captain America's conjecture, his two blue eyes peering at Li Xia through his mask:

"It must be related to what he said earlier about 'opening a door,' so we still have reinforcements?"

Li Xia smiled slightly: "Yes, but only to help us open the door... Alright, let's go."

He stepped into the circle first, and Captain America followed without hesitation.

Once they had all crossed the circle, it vanished, and the surrounding scenery had completely changed, resembling a giant factory.

Without any warning, alarms and sirens blared, and the entire factory erupted like a giant beast awakening, with countless lights and shouts rising in succession.

A cold, automated voice echoed above the factory: "Warning! Warning! Intruder detected!"

The blood of several people seemed to freeze at the sound of the movement.

Falcon stared at the gate behind him and turned around in disbelief.

"No, you're just going to dump us at the gate? What about the battle plan?"

Everyone was stunned and turned to look at Li Xia. The few people who were already full of anger after Li Xia's words rushed over in a fit of rage.

"The battle plan is..."

Li Xia's hand grasped the hilt of the sword that slowly emerged from behind his waist; it felt icy cold to the touch.

"Clang!"

The sound of the sword's cry drowned out all other sounds; the entire world seemed to be filled only with that clear, melodious ringing.

In the darkness of the night, a flash of silver light appeared, like lightning, instantly illuminating the entire open space.

Even though the light dimmed again in a very short time, the afterimage of the bright light still remained on the retina.

To their astonishment, a pale white crescent-shaped beam of light, as beautiful as if it had plucked the moon from the sky, emerged from the tip of the sword.

The sword light skimmed forward along the ground, accompanied by a deep hum, and with each inch it moved forward, it seemed to grow larger out of thin air.

After passing through dozens of meters, it was already several meters high. By the time it reached the factory building a hundred meters away, it had transformed into a giant light blade spanning the sky for over a hundred meters.

The golden light silently disappeared into the building, seemingly without any obstruction, and continued to fly forward.

The sword light flashed like a hot knife through butter, piercing straight through the entire factory building and continuing forward without stopping.

The towering workshops, warehouses, and smelting towers were all sliced ​​cleanly by this blade of light.

A strange, deathly silence seemed to fall over the surroundings for a moment.

The piercing alarm stopped abruptly, the cacophony of shouts vanished completely, and even the dust-laden wind seemed to have been severed by the sword, freezing in mid-air.

But this suffocating calm lasted only a moment before the factory was suddenly gripped by an extremely dull tremor.

The first factory building that was cut open had its superstructure slowly slide half a meter to the side, revealing a smooth, mirror-like cut.

The concrete cross-section showed no signs of cracking or rough edges; the exposed steel bars were all perfectly aligned, as if cut by the most precise machine tool, gleaming with a cold, hard metallic luster. As the center of gravity shifted completely, the factory building, tens of meters high, collapsed with a deafening roar, massive blocks of concrete and steel frames crashing to the ground, kicking up clouds of dust.

One building, two buildings, three buildings...

The collapse spread sequentially along the direction of the light blade's flight, like toppling a row of dominoes.

The roaring sounds rose and fell, the earth trembled slightly under the heavy pressure, and billowing dust rose into the air, instantly obscuring half of the night sky.

A violent explosion followed immediately, flames shot into the sky, gray smoke continued to spread in the air, and thick black smoke rose from below, mixing together and obscuring the sky.

The scorching heat swept outwards with the wind, and even from hundreds of meters away, one could feel the intense heat hitting their face.

"clang!"

A crisp sound came from Captain America's shield. He looked down at the pebble that had struck the shield and bounced off to the ground. The firelight was reflected in his pupils. This was... a pebble that had come from a distance?

The Avengers stared in stunned silence at the Skynet core factory, which remained in complete chaos, resembling an apocalyptic wasteland.

They weren't unfamiliar with grand occasions, but this particular grand occasion was something that one person created casually.

The shock brought by this terrifying visual impact is unparalleled.

Even the most talkative Spider-Man seemed to have lost his voice, his eyes wide open to the extreme behind his mask.

Stark's mask flashed rapidly, displaying a stream of analytical data: "Jarvis, has the energy level been analyzed yet?"

"Sorry, sir, this cannot be resolved."

This energy does not belong to any known physical system.

Falcon opened his mouth: "...Okay, we don't really need a battle plan."

In the midst of this scene, a deafening roar suddenly erupted from the burning factory.

Boom!

Suddenly, the burning flames tilted to one side and trembled violently.

A figure rushed out of the factory amidst the flames, each step leaving huge cracks in the ground.

The bulging, green skin seemed to gleam in the firelight.

Such a slash would indeed pose no threat to Hulk.

Li Xia turned her head to the side and said softly:

"Just like we said before, Hulk and those two are mine, you guys go find the Mind Scepter."

"summer!"

Captain America suddenly spoke up, looking at Li Xia with a pleading expression:

"Don't kill Banner..."

"it is good."

Li Xia also walked forward, the two figures walking towards each other, getting closer and closer.

Just as he was about to get close, his left foot slammed heavily onto the ground.

Crack! Countless cracks spread outwards from his foot, and the ground within a radius of tens of meters seemed to have sunk slightly from his stomp.

"Roar!"

Hulk's roar, accompanied by scorching air currents, seemed to even stir the hair in front of him.

But Li Xia's eyes remained calm as a lake, as if the nearly three-meter-tall Hulk in front of him did not exist.

A tremendous force surged from the soles of his feet, running straight up his spine, and just as he was about to throw a punch, Li Xia's body suddenly rose a few inches.

Multiplication Technique!

He turned his head to dodge Hulk's swinging punch, letting the wind from the punch hit his cheek.

boom!

Li Xia, who was already nearly three meters tall, slammed his fist, which was filled with terrifying power, into Hulk's cheek at an extremely tricky angle.

The shockwave, visible to the naked eye, spread out at an extremely fast speed, creating huge waves.

After Li Xia unleashed his punch, he didn't exert all his strength. Instead, his fist seemed glued to Hulk's face as he slammed it straight down to the ground.

At this moment, he unleashed a punch that had gathered all his strength, releasing all control and pouring tremendous force into Hulk's head.

Another huge roar rang out, and the Avengers in the distance felt the ground shaking.

The billowing smoke and dust formed a ring-like pattern, spreading outwards.

They shielded their faces with their hands, and through the corner of their eyes, they could see that a huge pit, more than ten meters wide, had appeared on the solid, hardened ground.

Hulk lay there in the center of the depression, his head tilted to one side, with blood oozing from his mouth and nose.

He had clearly fallen into a coma.

"Holy shit!"

The men felt the hairs on their backs stand on end; they had never seen Hulk beaten so badly.

Captain America tightened his grip on his shield and said in a deep voice, "Don't waste time. Our mission is to find the scepter immediately. Stark, do you know where the scepter is?"

"Based on the radiation... it should be underground."

"Okay! Let's go!"

.............

Li Xia stood beside the crater. At that moment, Hulk had mysteriously disappeared and reappeared dozens of meters away.

Looking at the two figures, a man and a woman, beside Hulk, the one in red was naturally the Scarlet Witch Wanda, who had a rather good figure.

So the one who just rescued Hulk was Quicksilver?

The speed was indeed very fast; even his spiritual senses only detected a fleeting anomaly.

But... does Quicksilver really have that much strength?

Li Xia was quite clear about Quicksilver's abilities. Logically speaking, Quicksilver's ability to withstand such enormous acceleration meant that his physical body must be extremely strong.

But in reality, his physical body is only slightly stronger than that of an ordinary person; what truly protects him is the force field when he enters extreme speed.

This position allows his body and everything he comes into contact with to remain in a normal state.

For example, if he throws a punch at someone's face while running at top speed, the person he hits is equivalent to Quicksilver standing in front of him and getting punched.

Instead of a punch that came crashing down at terrifying speed.

After saying all that... in reality, Li Xia only knows one thing: Quicksilver is a weakling!

It seems like it's defying the heavens, but in reality, even if you don't move, the opponent can't break through your armor barrier!

"He's... that number one hypothetical enemy, isn't he?"

Quicksilver glanced at the figure in the distance, swallowing nervously. Naturally, there were potential enemies within the organization.

The entire Avengers are on the list of potential enemies, but the origin of Skynet is Li Xia, who displayed a world-changing combat power in the earth-shattering battle of New York more than a year ago.

Countless versions of his contingency plan have been devised.

The reason they used the Mind Scepter to control the Hulk, rather than other members of the Avengers, was because...

The main reason is that, according to the calculations of Hydra scientists, Li Xia is highly likely to be a wave energy field user, and his close combat ability should be relatively weak.

Hulk is extremely skilled in close combat, and because he is a mutant caused by gamma rays, he has a strong resistance to most energy fields, rays, and radiation, which is why he was chosen as a target for control.

The other two potential weaknesses in the calculation are speed and telepathy. Quicksilver is extremely fast, while Wanda uses the same telepathic magic to counter the energy field.

This is Hydra's final battle plan: once Li Xia appears, a combat team consisting of Hulk, Wanda, and Quicksilver will be needed to fight him.

But to everyone's surprise, the main force Hulk was knocked down with a single punch as soon as he appeared. Quicksilver didn't understand what internal energy was or what penetrating energy was.

All he saw was Hulk being knocked down with a single punch!
