Chapter 181: This Better Become Reality
Not only S.H.I.E.L.D. and Hydra.
The unusual movement of Stark Industries' transport aircraft also caught the attention of the U.S. Military and the media.
Meanwhile.
Washington, D.C., United States.
The Strategic Command Center of The Pentagon.
A massive screen displayed global satellite surveillance footage.
General Ross stood with his hands behind his back, his brow furrowed as he stared at a high-speed flying object crossing the Atlantic Ocean on the screen.
"Sir, Stark Industries' justice transport plane has already left U.S. airspace. It is currently flying toward East Africa at Mach five."
The radar operator reported loudly.
"East Africa?" General Ross was taken aback.
"What's there? A terrorists' base? Or some uncivilized indigenous tribe?"
"Reporting, Sir. According to flight path predictions, their destination is likely several underdeveloped countries in East Africa, such as... near Wakanda."
"Wakanda?"
Hearing this, General Ross sneered disdainfully.
"Has Stark lost his mind?"
"Why leave so many troubles at home unresolved just to run off to some godforsaken place in Africa?"
"To teach those farm tools how to pick cotton? Or has he recently taken a liking to Black people? No, that shouldn't be the case with his taste..."
Speaking of this, Ross looked at his adjutant in confusion.
"Have you seen the news? Is Charlize Theron still dating him?"
The adjutant paused for a moment and said cautiously,
"General, Lucas Stark has always played by his own rules."
"They just acquired the Oscorp Group a while ago, and today they're all heading to Africa. Could there be... some resource hidden there that we don't know about?"
"Resources? Besides oil and diamonds, what resources could Africa possibly have that are worth Stark making a personal trip?"
Ross walked over to the command table, picked up a cigar, and clipped the end.
"The Stark Brothers are just too inflated. They think because they're superheroes, they can flex their muscles all over the world."
"A place like Africa is full of war and disease; they don't care about technology or cash over there."
"Notify the Intelligence Agency to keep an eye on them."
"If this group of arrogant fools dies under the poison arrows and spears of African tribes, we can rightfully take over the technological legacy left behind by Stark Industries!"
Ross lit the cigar and took a deep drag, his eyes filled with greed and anticipation.
To be honest, he couldn't wait for the Stark Brothers to crash and burn in Africa.
This better become reality.
...
New York, the editorial department of the Daily Bugle.
Editor-in-Chief J. Jonah Jameson was slamming his hand on the table, loudly berating his reporters.
"Useless! All of you are useless!"
"The Stark Brothers took Spider-Man to Africa, and you guys couldn't even manage to get a single exclusive photo!"
Jameson lit a cigar, his face filled with prejudice and disdain.
"Going to Africa? These showboating capitalists are definitely going for some hypocritical charity stunt! Take photos, donate money, and then land on the cover of Time magazine!"
"Get tomorrow's headline ready for me: 'Hypocritical Superheroes: Stark's Showboating Game in Africa'!"
"I want all of New York to know that these people aren't saving the world at all; they're just a bunch of frauds trying to grab attention!"
...
Himalayas, Kamar-Taj.
In the cold wind of the courtyard, Tony stared intently at his hands.
His fingers quickly traced several movements in mid-air.
Soon, golden sparks began to arrange themselves in a pattern, ultimately forming a shimmering, three-dimensional magic array.
"Incredible..."
At this moment, The Ancient One stood not far away.
Seeing Tony manipulate magic so skillfully, a hint of marvel flashed in her eyes once again.
"Your understanding of spatial structures and your precise control over energy far exceed those of any apprentice I have ever seen."
"I dare say you are more skilled than some Mystic Arts sorcerers who have practiced for decades."
The Ancient One stepped forward, full of praise.
"Your brain seems as if it was naturally created to decipher the laws of the Universe."
Hearing his teacher's praise, Tony dispelled the magicarray and rubbed his aching temples.
"It's nothing, Teacher."
Tony sighed.
Though he spoke lightly, there was a trace of frustration in his eyes.
"Alright, that's enough for today's lesson." The Ancient One turned and walked toward the nearby tea room.
"You stayed up all night last night; you need to let your brain rest a bit."
Tony followed The Ancient One into the tea room.
As soon as he entered, he smelled the rich aroma of roasted meat and beer.
In the tea room, Steve and Wong sat by a wooden table.
A large platter of roasted pork ribs sat in front of Wong, who was eating with grease all over his mouth.
Steve held a can of beer in his hand, sitting boldly on a cushion.
Seeing Tony enter, Steve snorted.
"Oh, if it isn't our great mage? What, you didn't turn yourself into a croaking frog today?"
Tony rolled his eyes, too lazy to pay attention to this foul-mouthed veteran.
He then sat down directly next to Sorcerer Wong, casually grabbing a bottle of beer, opening it, and taking a sip.
"What did you guys go to New York for? Weren't you supposed to protect the apartment's safety?"
"Protect my ass!"
Steve took a large gulp of beer and cursed crossly.
"That bastard Luca kicked us out first thing in the morning. He said he was going to Africa for a vacation and to make some money on the side, and complained that the two of us were in the way."
"Going to Africa for a vacation?"
Tony was taken aback, his brow furrowing slightly.
"He knew Luca too well."
"The other guy wasn't some idle person who would suddenly run off to Africa to look at wild animals."
"Since he made such a big fuss to go to Africa, there was definitely a profit to be made—and a massive one at that."
"What is he doing in Africa?" Tony looked at Wong.
Wong mumbled back while gnawing on a pork rib.
"Oh, last night, an arms dealer named Klaue confessed some intel. He said there's a place in Africa called Wakanda. Not only is their technology more advanced than the United States, but they also have a massive Vibraniummine hidden there."
"After Mr. Luca heard that, his eyes turned green. He said it's the property of all mankind and that he was going to conduct an anti-monopoly investigation—uh, basically to empty that mountain."
"Hearing this, Tony sat up straight, nearly crushing his beer can."
"Vibranium? And an entire mine?!"
"Tony's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief."
"Of course he knew what Vibranium was."
"Steve's shield was forged from just a tiny scrap of Vibranium that his dad went to great lengths to obtain back then."
"My god, if there really is a Vibranium mine there, and they also possess technology that surpasses ours..."
"Tony's expression turned serious."
"This is too dangerous."
"A nation with such terrifying resources is definitely not to be trifled with. Their defense systems and weapon firepower must be beyond imagination."
Tony stood up, pacing back and forth in the tea room with some anxiety.
"Luca only took a few rookies with him? Isn't that too arrogant? What if they run into danger? No, I need to contact Jarvis immediately and send the new armor over..."
Just as Tony was about to press his communicator,
"No need to be so tense, Tony."
The Ancient One, who had been sitting quietly nearby, smiled slightly and spoke calmly.
"If you are curious, we can take a look at their current situation together."
With that, The Ancient One reached out her right hand and made a gentle swipe in mid-air.
Buzz!
A golden spark rippled through the air.
Immediately after, ripples spread in the air like the surface of water, and a clear, circular magic water mirror appeared before everyone.
It was just like a super high-definition floating television screen.
And at this moment, the scene inside the justice was vividly displayed on the screen!
"Wow!"
Tony stopped in his tracks, staring at the water mirror in amazement.
"Is this Kamar-Taj's live broadcast technology? The clarity is even better than satellite signals! And there's no delay!"
Tony leaned closer to the water mirror, carefully studying the magical patterns on the edges.
"Is this a visual projection based on quantum entanglement? Or does it utilize optical refraction principles from other dimensions?"
"This is called the basic application of the Eye of Vishanti," The Ancient One explained with a smile.
"Once you master the essence of space folding, I can teach you this magic in a while. It can not only view any corner of the Earth, but even peer into scenes of other dimensions."
"Deal!" Tony snapped his fingers excitedly.
"I can't wait to install it into my armor."
To the side, Steve blew a smoke ring, looking at Luca in the image.
"I'd like to see if Luca can still be as arrogant as he was in New York when facing those African brothers."
Chapter 182: Preparing to Reap! (Two-in-One)
A few hours later.
A massive stealth fighter with a deeply futuristic design was flying at tens of thousands of feet in high altitude.
This was the justice airborne flying fortress newly developed by Stark Industries.
The space inside the cabin was ridiculously large, featuring not only a spacious lounge area but also a small equipment tuning platform.
At this moment, the members of the Justice Leagueassembled inside the cabin.
"Everyone, look closely."
In front of the central projection table, Luca snapped his fingers.
The next second.
The holographic projection instantly lit up, displaying a territory covered by dense tropical rainforests.
"This is the destination of our poverty alleviation trip to Africa this time, Wakanda."
Everyone gathered around, their gazes concentrated on the projection.
Peter curiously leaned in to take a look, scratching his head in some confusion.
"Mr. Luca, this place looks just like an ordinary primeval forest. There isn't even a decent road; are you sure this is Wakanda?"
"That is where their brilliance lies, kid."
Luca swiped rapidly across the holographic screen a few times and entered a string of decoding commands.
"Jarvis, overlay the multispectral scan and energy detection images."
"Understood, sir."
The next second, the image of the primeval forest twisted for a moment.
Amidst everyone's shocked gazes, this seemingly ordinary rainforest turned into a hemispherical energy shield flashing with blue light!
And hidden inside this energy shield was a highly technologically advanced city!
Skyscrapers towering into the clouds, maglev trains shuttling through the air, and a cluster of cyberpunk-style buildings.
All of this contrasted sharply with the poor and backward African continent outside.
"Whoa..."
Peter widened his eyes, incomparably surprised.
"This... is this magic? Is this also an illusion of Kamar-Taj?"
Pietro at the side rolled his eyes upon hearing this.
"Stop dragging everything into magic. That's obviously a technological camouflage. I've heard Wong talk about a magic from Kamar-Taj called the Mirror Dimension. That's much more advanced than this, and it doesn't require electricity bills."
Wanda and Gwen couldn't help but chuckle slightly.
Luca shook his head slightly, gently tapping the table to pull everyone's attention back.
"As you can see, Klaue is right; Wakanda is not an agricultural country at all."
"They possess unique Vibranium."
"And according to what Klaue confessed, roughly ten thousand years ago, a Vibranium meteorite crashed here. Therefore, the entire Wakanda is built on this mine."
Hearing this, everyone wore expressions of complete astonishment.
The entire Wakanda is a mine?!
Wait, just how big is this mine?!
Seeing everyone's reaction, Luca shrugged.
"Alright, don't be too surprised; that is simply the fact."
"We all know that the metal Vibranium is not only indestructible but can also absorb kinetic energy. This is currently the most perfect material known on Earth."
"However, the people of Wakanda treat it as private property, tightly guarding it in their hands."
"They use Vibranium to make clothes, houses, and those cold weapons used as toys, yet they are unwilling to take it out to share with the world."
Luca looked at Peter, his tone becoming earnest.
"Peter, do you still remember what I told you before?"
"With great power comes great responsibility."
"If Stark Industries possesses this Vibranium, Tony can create safer clean energy, and I can develop more advanced medical equipment."
"We can use it to protect New York, protect Earth, and fight against alien invasions!"
"And what about Wakanda? They watch helplessly as the world is filled with war, hunger, and disease, while hiding inside an energy dome living a life like gods."
"What is this? This is a selfish act! It is a betrayal of all humanity!"
Peter listened with boiling blood, his fists clenched tightly.
"Mr. Luca, you are right!"
"We must break the monopoly! We must bring Vibraniumback to New York, let it unleash its true value, and benefit all mankind!"
Seeing this, Luca nodded with satisfaction.
"Very good, kid, your awareness is getting higher and higher."
Finishing his words, Luca pointed at the energy shield on the projection and began analyzing tactics.
"According to Jarvis's calculations, Wakanda's energy shield is extremely sturdy."
"It can withstand the direct bombardment of a nuclear bomb. This is also their confidence in being able to hide for so many years."
"In addition to the shield, they have an army equipped with Vibranium weapons."
"Although they still use primitive combat methods like spears and shields, those weapons can release energy Shockwave, which cannot be underestimated."
"In addition, their king is called Black Panther. It is said that he has taken a certain herb, possessing superhuman strength and agility, and wears a Vibranium suit that can absorb attacks."
Luca spread his hands and summarized.
"Simply put, this is a hedgehog locked inside a turtle shell."
"So what?"
Pietro looked somewhat disdainful.
"No matter if it's a turtle shell or a hedgehog, as long as it's something blocking the way, just smash it to pieces!"
"Steve said that back in Europe, the German pillboxes were much thicker than this, and didn't he still smash open the door with a single shield?"
"These people are just a bunch of natives holding spears; even if you put clothes made of gold on them, it won't change the fact that they are cowards!"
"Later when we arrive, I'll take the lead and charge in, shoving the head of that guy called Black Panther right into his own crotch!"
Pietro's rant left everyone stunned.
Never would they have expected this!
After hanging out with Steve for a few days, this kid actually turned out like this?!
Wanda also covered her forehead somewhat awkwardly.
For some reason, what should she do if she wants to beat up her younger brother?!
Luca smiled with satisfaction.
This was precisely the morale desired.
"Pietro is right."
"In front of absolute power, everything is made of paper. The target of this operation is very clear."
"Shatter their shield, suppress all resistance, and then take over the Vibranium mine."
"Who agrees, who opposes?"
Inside the cabin, everyone raised no objections.
Wanda looked at Luca, her eyes full of worship.
Pietro excitedly did warm-up exercises.
Peter took a deep breath, trying his best to keep himself quiet.
Meanwhile, inside a cage in the corner of the cabin.
Ulysses Klaue, bound hand and foot, cowered in the corner trembling.
As the pathfinder for this operation, he was forced to listen to Luca's pre-battle analysis from beginning to end.
At this moment, Klaue's heart was frantically mocking this group of overconfident fellows.
"They're crazy! These people are completely crazy!"
"They have no idea how terrifying Wakanda is!"
"This is the most technologically advanced country on Earth!"
"Let alone a nuclear bomb, not even a falling meteorite could smash through the energy shield!"
"And the Royal Guard; the spears in their hands can easily slice through armor!"
"Does Luca Stark think he's invincible just because he defeated a few monsters?"
"When this bunch of idiots crashes into Wakanda's defense system, they'll definitely be blown into piles of minced meat!"
"By then, I'll take advantage of the chaos to run away and sell this news to the black market; I'll definitely make a fortune!"
Klaue lowered his head, trying hard to conceal his schadenfreude, looking forward to seeing the miserable state of Luca and the others getting thwarted.
...
...
Meanwhile.
Africa, Wakanda.
The Golden City hidden beneath the barrier was currently at the highest level of combat readiness!
Inside the strategic command hall of the palace, alarm lights flashed frantically.
The old king T'Chaka sat on the throne, his expression solemn.
His son, the young Black Panther T'Challa, stood in front of the command screen.
"Father, border monitoring has detected that a giant stealth aircraft is rapidly approaching our airspace!"
T'Challa pointed at the fast-moving red dot on the screen, his eyes filled with anger.
"The opponent hasn't opened a communication request, nor is there any sign of deceleration. Clearly, they are coming for us!"
T'Chaka took a deep breath, a trace of worry flashing across his aged face.
"Have you found out the opponent's identity?"
"Found out."
Princess Shuri rapidly tapped her hands on the virtual keyboard, bringing up the signal characteristics of the aircraft.
"This is the signal frequency band of Stark Industries."
"Combined with the news sent back by our covert agents in the outside world, what is carried on this plane is precisely the Justice League that has been stealing the spotlight worldwide recently."
"Luca Stark is on it."
Hearing this name, the command hall fell silent.
T'Chaka gripped the throne armrests tightly, a trace of shock flashing in his eyes.
"How could they discover our location?"
"It must be that damned thief Klaue!"
"He must have sold Wakanda's secrets to Stark!"
T'Challa angrily slammed the console, exuding a dangerous aura all over his body.
"Father! This group of barbarians from the outside worldwants to invade us!"
T'Challa turned around, looking at T'Chaka with a torch-like gaze.
"Do they think they can do whatever they want in Wakanda just because they defeated a few monsters?! They have no idea how terrifying real technology is!"
"I request to go into battle! I will personally lead the Royal Guard to teach this group of arrogant invaders a painful lesson!"
"I will make sure they never return alive!!"
T'Chaka looked at his hot-tempered son and remained silent for a moment.
He knew Stark's strength could not be underestimated.
Especially Luca Stark, who could tear apart mechs with his bare hands and fire lasers from his eyes.
He estimated that the opponent's power definitely exceeded the limit of past Black Panthers.
But Wakanda's dignity could not be violated, and the secret of Vibranium could even less fall into the hands of these greedy capitalists.
"T'Challa, my son."
T'Chaka stood up, his tone majestic and heavy.
"Wakanda is aloof from the world, but we are never afraid of war."
"Since they actively provoke us, let us show them what the most powerful strength truly is."
T'Chaka waved his hand largely, issuing the highest directive.
"Activate the maximum power of the shield! All border air defense weapons enter a locked state!"
"Royal Guard, border defense corps, all members assemble!"
"Any enemy who dares to cross the shield shall be killed without mercy!"
"Yes! My King!"
T'Challa shouted loudly, putting on the Black Panthermask.
The Vibranium battle suit circulated dark purple energy light patterns on his body.
He was already prepared to tear apart all invaders.
A few minutes later.
The justice transport plane hovered at a position several thousand meters above Wakanda.
The cabin door slowly opened.
Fierce winds instantly poured into the cabin, blowing everyone's clothes to flutter loudly.
Luca walked to the cabin door, looking down at the dense tropical rainforest below.
Under his super perception, the situation hidden within the energy shield was clearly visible.
Inside the shield, Wakanda's army had already finished assembling.
Countless cannons flashing with blue light had already locked onto them tightly.
"Gentlemen, ladies."
Luca's mind moved.
An ink-black battle suit instantly surged from beneath his skin, quickly enveloping him.
Afterwards, he turned around to look at the entire Justice League who were already primed for action.
"The door is closed, and the Master doesn't seem to welcome us very much."
"But it doesn't matter; a visit from Stark Industries never requires knocking on the door."
Luca violently took a step out of the cabin, plummeting toward the energy shield below.
"Everyone, prepare to reap!"
Wakanda.
This utopia hidden beneath the barrier was currently in an unprecedented state of tension.
Inside the shield, Wakanda's capital Birnin Zana was still as resplendent and magnificent as ever.
But a murderous atmosphere had already shrouded this capital city.
On the plains at the edge, Wakanda's army had already completed its assembly.
Thousands of border defense legions draped in tribal cloaks held in their hands Vibranium energy weapons flashing with a deadly blue light.
In front of them was Wakanda's most elite Royal Guard.
This group of bald female warriors held Vibranium spears, their gazes cold and resolute.
And further ahead in the array, there was also a group of huge rhinoceroses draped in heavy armor.
They restlessly pawed at the hooves, emitting low panting sounds.
This force, which looked primitive but actually possessed firepower sufficient to sweep across any conventional army on Earth,
was currently standing by in full battle array, aiming their guns and spears at the sky.
Standing at the very front of all the armies was T'Challa, wearing a pure black Vibranium battle suit.
Behind him stood Wakanda's head of the Royal Guard, Okoye, and several tribal Elders.
At this moment, T'Challa's eyes stared fixedly at the high altitude outside the shield.
There, a transport plane had lifted its camouflage, hovering at an altitude of several thousand meters.
Like a steel behemoth, it looked down at the city below.
"Your Highness, the opponent's aircraft has broken through our outer airspace, and the cabin door has opened."
Okoye gripped the spear in her hand, reporting in an icy tone.
"The opposite side is provoking Wakanda's majesty! I request to immediately activate the anti-air energy cannons and shoot down this piece of junk!"
T'Challa raised his hand, stopping Okoye's impulse.
"No rush."
"Although Stark Industries' weapons have a huge reputation in the outside world, in front of Wakanda's technology, they are not worth mentioning."
"I want to see what on Earth this arrogant U.S. capitalist relies on to dare to invade our sanctuary."
"I want to make them understand in despair that Wakanda's shield is an insurmountable chasm they can never cross!"
The moment T'Challa's voice fell.
At the cabin door of the justice transport plane in the sky, several figures leaped down like shooting stars.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Several loud noises exploded mid-air.
Luca Stark, Peter Parker, Gwen Stacy, as well as the brother and sister Wanda and Pietro.
The five of them steadily landed on the surface of Wakanda's energy shield!
The light blue energy shield rippled beneath their feet, just like stepping on a layer of tough film.
Below the shield, less than fifty meters away from them, was Wakanda's army standing by in full battle array.
The two sides began a standoff separated by a layer of transparent energy shield.
Chapter 183: What the Hell is This Monster? (Two-in-One)
At this moment, Peter was crouching next to Luca.
Seeing the soldiers riding armored rhinoceroses down below, he was somewhat dumbfounded.
"Mr. Luca, are you sure we didn't walk onto the wrong set?"
"This looks like we're filming 'The Lord of the Rings' or a documentary about African tribes. They're actually riding rhinoceroses?"
Luca nodded slightly, giving Peter an appreciative look.
"Exactly. That's why Steve was right. Even if barbarians obtained nuclear fusion technology, they'd only use it to make a fire. It's like the saying goes, a dog can't change its habit of eating feces, kid."
"A contradictory combination of people who have mastered high-end technology yet still retain primitive customs."
"They use the most awesome metal to make spears and fight in a primitive way. What do you call that? That's called a caveman guarding a gold mine."
Beneath the shield.
T'Challa heard Luca's words, and his complexion instantly turned ashen.
"Luca Stark!"
T'Challa stepped forward, his voice echoing across the plains like rolling thunder.
"You have intruded into Wakanda's airspace without authorization. This is a declaration of war against a sovereign nation!"
"I'm whiter than you!"
"I'm whiter than you!! X100"
As soon as these words were spoken, the Wakandan warriors roared one after another, seemingly declaring their dissatisfaction.
T'Challa was satisfied with this, then pointed at Luca, burning with rage.
"Don't think that just because you defeated a few monsters outside, you can do whatever you want here!"
"The heritage of Wakanda is not something that upstarts like you, who mutated by sheer luck, can understand!"
"Now, get out of our airspace immediately! Otherwise, this shield will be your grave!"
Facing T'Challa's warning, not only was Luca not angry, but he smiled even more brightly.
He slowly flew up and walked leisurely on the shield, as if he were taking a stroll in his back garden.
"Your Highness, don't be so hot-tempered."
"We aren't here to declare war, but to talk business."
"I heard that there is something called Vibranium buried underground in Wakanda. In your hands, using this stuff for nothing but spears and shields is simply a waste of a precious resource."
"Therefore, Stark Industries has decided to show some kindness and provide you with friendly technical poverty alleviation."
"How about this: we provide the technology as equity, and you provide the mines. We take ninety percent of the profits, and you take ten. See, how fair is that?"
Upon hearing this, the Wakandan army was immediately filled with righteous indignation.
"Arrogant robber!"
"Kill him! Pierce his heart!"
Okoye was trembling with rage, raising her spear and aiming it at Luca.
T'Challa laughed out of extreme anger.
"Stark, you are a lunatic."
"You can't even get past Wakanda's shield, yet you dare to spout such nonsense here?"
"This shield was constructed by our scientists using a Vibranium energy network. It can absorb and reflect kinetic and energy attacks."
Speaking of this, T'Challa proudly raised his chin.
"Even if you brought a nuclear bomb here, don't even think about leaving a single scratch on the shield!"
"You are just like a bunch of buzzing flies!"
"Is that so?"
Luca raised an eyebrow and smiled lightly.
"Peter, Pietro, and Wanda, Gwen. Did you hear what Your Highness said? He thinks you are flies."
Luca landed on the ground, took a step back, and made a gesture of invitation.
"Go ahead, give this confident Your Highness a little shock. Let's see just how hard this shield really is."
"Received, Mr. Luca!"
Peter could no longer restrain himself.
He had just put on his latest high-tech suit and was worried he wouldn't have a place to test it!
"Watch my Superpower electric web!"
Peter leaped high, and while in mid-air, both of his wrists exerted force simultaneously.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Two massive globs of spider silk shot out from his web-shooters.
In mid-air, the webs spread out, turning into two giant nets crackling with blue electric arcs, slamming fiercely onto the energy shield beneath his feet!
"Zzzzt!!!"
The moment the current touched the shield, it erupted with blinding sparks.
Peter was full of anticipation.
This was Mr. Stark's latest technology, and its power was immense!
However, the next second.
Only a small ripple appeared on the surface of the shield.
Immediately after, the current strangely merged into it and disappeared without a trace!
Not only that, but after losing the current, the spider web was directly shattered into powder by the power reflected from the shield's surface!
"Whoa..."
Peter landed back on the ground and scratched his mask awkwardly.
"This... this... is actually quite insulated."
"Move aside, mask boy. Let me show you what a real attack is."
Pietro snorted coldly, loosening his neck and wrists.
"To deal with an energy shell, you have to use speed and penetration!"
As the words fell, Pietro's eyes became focused.
Boom!
A white cloud of vapor exploded where he had been standing.
Pietro turned into a silver afterimage, his speed breaking several Mach within a fraction of a second.
Subsequently, he concentrated the kinetic energy of his entire body into his right leg.
Then, spinning rapidly in mid-air like a high-speed drill, he kicked fiercely toward the energy shield!
"Bang!!!"
A deafening roar exploded in the sky.
The power of Pietro's kick was no less than a heavy armor-piercing missile.
However, the result was still despairing.
The moment the energy shield received the violent Shockwave, it erupted with a dazzling blue light.
Immediately after, a force several times greater than Pietro's attack power exploded outward!
"Ah!"
Pietro let out a scream and was directly bounced hundreds of meters into the sky!
He tumbled uncontrollably in the air for several turns before barely stabilizing his figure, finally landing back on the shield in a sorry state.
"Fuck! What the hell is this thing?!"
Pietro clutched his numb right leg, grimacing in pain.
"Not only can it absorb power, but it can also reflect the power back multiplied! It's simply unreasonable!"
Seeing that both Peter and Pietro had been thwarted.
Gwen also frowned.
She pulled two specially made micro-energy bombs from her waist.
These were armor-piercing weapons Luca had specifically developed for her.
"Try this."
Gwen set the timer on the bombs and threw them violently at the shield.
Boom! Boom!
Two scorching fireballs exploded on the shield's surface.
But the result was equally disappointing.
The flames and shockwaves had just risen when they were silently swallowed by the energy on the shield's surface.
The shield remained intact, without even a hint of dimming in its light.
Seeing this scene, the Wakandan army erupted in deafening cheers.
"Long live Wakanda!"
"Stupid invaders! Your attacks are as laughable as a baby's fists!"
Seeing the few people above the shield who were at their wits' end, T'Challa let out a triumphant laugh.
"I warned you, Stark."
"This is the ultimate defensive network that incorporates the properties of Vibranium. It can absorb kinetic and thermal energy, and it can also convert electrical energy."
"The more violent your attacks, the stronger the shield's defense!"
"Give up, and obediently roll back to New York. This is not a place where you can run wild."
Facing T'Challa's mockery, Peter, Gwen, and Pietro were all a bit discouraged.
This shield was an unsolvable turtle shell.
Attacks would be reflected, energy attacks would be absorbed; how could they fight this?
"Boss..."
Jessica stood to the side and whispered a reminder.
"It seems conventional weapons really won't work. Should we let Miss Wanda try?"
Wanda, who had been standing behind and hadn't made a move, agreed with this.
Before Luca could speak, her hands immediately lit up with scarlet magic.
"I can try to modify its energy structure."
"No need."
The silent Luca suddenly spoke.
He reached out and stopped Wanda's action of preparing to cast a spell.
"Using magic to deal with an iron turtle is too wasteful."
Luca loosened his neck, making a crisp cracking sound.
Following his movement, the black suit on his body quickly switched into armor form, and the cape behind him appeared as well.
"Since they are so confident, I will completely crush their confidence. After all, I am Superman."
"My Superpower wisdom tells me it's time to use Superpower strength."
After saying this, Luca strode to the very center of the shield.
"Little kitty, you said just now that this thing can absorb kinetic energy? The more you hit it, the stronger it gets?"
Seeing the other party's actions, T'Challa was extremely confident.
"Come on, so-called Superman, let me see your Superpower strength! Hahahaha!"
Without further ado, blinding red and blue light suddenly erupted from Luca's eyes.
The suit on his body seemed to sense its Master's fighting spirit, and the patterns on its surface began to flow rapidly.
"What a coincidence. I can also absorb kinetic energy."
"Then let's see whether your turtle shell is harder, or my fist is harder."
As soon as the words fell.
Luca suddenly took half a step back, exerting force from his waist.
Subsequently, he simply clenched his right fist, concentrating all his power into one point.
"Boom!"
The air was instantly evacuated, emitting a terrifying sonic boom.
Luca's right fist slammed fiercely against the energy shield!
"Bang!!!"
This time, the sound of the Shockwave was louder than any previous one.
The sound was so loud that even the Wakandan soldiers inside the shield couldn't help but cover their ears.
However.
Surprisingly.
Although the shield trembled violently and erupted with blinding blue light, it actually didn't break!
"Hmm?"
Luca raised an eyebrow, a flash of surprise in his eyes.
"This shield is quite durable."
As expected of Vibranium technology, its kinetic energy absorption property is truly well-deserved.
That punch just now had at least several thousand tons of destructive power, yet it was taken head-on.
T'Challa laughed out loud when he saw that Luca's attack was ineffective.
"Hahaha! I told you, Stark! This is futile!"
"Your power is worthless in the face of Wakandan wisdom! You can't even break the shield!"
"Is that so?"
Luca wasn't angry; instead, he grinned.
Having obtained his Superpower for so long, he had finally encountered something that would allow him to let go and smash to his heart's content!
"Since one punch can't break it..."
Luca spread his legs slightly, planting himself firmly in front of the shield.
"Then I'll just hit it a few more times!"
"Boom!"
Luca swung his left fist again, slamming it fiercely into the same spot.
"Bang!"
Immediately after, his right fist followed.
"Bang!"
Left fist! Right fist! Left fist! Right fist!
Luca's arms turned into countless afterimages, unleashing a storm-like bombardment against the energy shield!
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The deafening roars merged into one, as if to beat war drums in the sky.
Every punch that landed carried terrifying power!
At first, T'Challa was still sneering, thinking Luca was just doing useless work.
But after only a dozen seconds.
The smile on T'Challa's face gradually froze.
Because he discovered with horror that although the shield was still absorbing kinetic energy.
But the blue light on its surface had begun to become unstable!
"Warning! Shield energy load has reached sixty percent! It is continuously rising!"
In the palace command room, Shuri looked at the data jumping crazily on the screen, her face turning pale.
"Brother! That guy's power is too terrifying! The shield's kinetic energy absorption and conversion system can't keep up with the speed of his punches!"
T'Challa widened his eyes, cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.
How is this possible?!
That's a shield that can withstand nuclear bombs!
How could a human body output a continuous kinetic energy output that exceeds the level of a nuclear explosion?!
Above the shield.
Luca was becoming more and more excited as he fought.
He could clearly feel that the suit and his cells were absorbing the kinetic energy reflected by the shield.
And the more he absorbed, the heavier his punches became, and the faster his speed grew!
This was a vicious cycle!
The greater the power the shield reflected, the more energy Luca absorbed, and the more terrifying the power of the next punch became!
"Come again!"
Luca roared, the red and blue light on his fists becoming increasingly blinding.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"
"Load has reached eighty percent! Energy nodes are showing signs of overheating!"
Shuri's scream rang out in T'Challa's communicator.
The Wakandan soldiers saw Luca, who was smashing away like a demon god, and finally revealed looks of fear in their eyes.
Their shield was wailing under this man's fists!
"Warning! Load at ninety-five percent! Shield is about to reach the critical point of collapse!"
"No! This is absolutely impossible!"
T'Challa roared, somewhat despairingly.
Just at this moment.
Luca stopped the bombardment.
He took a deep breath, concentrating all the accumulated kinetic energy into his right fist.
Looking at the terrified T'Challa, Luca sneered.
"Game over, little kitty."
"Now, I'm coming in as a guest."
Boom!!!
Accompanied by a roar that seemed to tear the firmament apart.
Luca's right fist slammed fiercely into the center of the energy shield!
Chapter 184: The Insoluble Perpetual Motion Machine
On the other side.
Himalayas, Kamar-Taj.
In the quaint and tranquil tea room, sandalwood incense curled upward.
But at this moment, the atmosphere here was not peaceful at all.
The water mirror in mid-air crystal-clearly broadcast everything happening in Wakanda.
In front of the water mirror, four people were staring fixedly at the screen.
Tony was still holding a cup of freshly brewed tea in his hand.
Steve was smoking a cigarette while drinking.
Wong still had half a piece of unswallowed pork chop stuffed in his mouth, glancing over from time to time.
The Ancient One was still as calm as ever.
In the screen, leading Peter and the others in battle suits, they plummeted toward Wakanda's energy shield.
"Has Luka gone mad?"
Steve threw his cigarette butt on the ground and stomped it out hard.
"That dome looks thicker than the bunker of the Germans! He just jumped down like that? Without even a parachute? Does he think he is a meteorite?"
"A meteorite is not as tough as him."
Tony looked calm, seemingly not surprised at all.
But as a scientist, Tony saw through the true value of the shield at a glance.
"That is definitely not an optical barrier or an electromagnetic force field."
"Judging by the way energy flows across its surface, it is more like a closed-loop energy grid. This means the shield can not only isolate attacks, but also absorb energy shocks."
"So, the downside is, if they crash into it just like that, the shield's rebound mechanism will trigger, and they will be shaken into meat paste instantly!"
Although Tony knew Luca's strength, seeing his younger brother facing unknown danger, his heart still could not help but tighten.
"Sorcerer, can magic destroy this shield?"
Tony turned to look at Ancient One.
The Ancient One shook her head slightly.
"This is an energy field constructed from Vibranium. It possesses nearly absolute kinetic energy absorption properties."
"Even for me, unless I use a Sling Ring to open spatial dimensions, it would be very difficult to break it from the front."
Hearing The Ancient One say this, Wong finally swallowed the pork chop.
"Even Sorcerer Supreme cannot break it? Will Mr. Luca and the others not smash their heads and bleed?"
However, the scene in the water mirror quickly slapped them hard in the face.
The five of them, including Luca, landed steadily on the surface of the shield.
The moment they made contact, a blue force field erupted from Luca's body, enveloping everyone.
This instantly dissipated the force for everyone.
Thus, not only were they not shattered by the rebound force, but Luca even took a leisurely stroll on the shield.
After seeming to get tired of playing, they walked off the shield and came to the ground.
Shortly after, they heard what Luca said to T'Challa.
"Technical equity, a one-nine profit split..."
Hearing this sentence, Tony covered his face, unable to bear watching.
"Damn vampire! He actually ran to Africa to collect protection money? And it is an open robbery!"
"This shamelessness truly inherits the true teachings of our Stark Family!"
Steve took a sip of wine and spoke admiringly.
"This kid is even more greedy than the mobsters I met in Brooklyn back then. But I like this straightforward bastard style."
"Since they refuse to hand it over, then beat them until they hand it over!"
Subsequently, T'Challa's arrogant warning came from the screen.
"...Even if you bring a nuclear bomb over, do not even think about leaving a single scratch on the shield!"
Hearing this wild talk.
Tony snorted disdainfully.
"A nuclear bomb cannot blow it open? That is because the energy of a nuclear bomb is not concentrated enough."
"If you let me build a laser cutter using a reactor, I guarantee I can cut this turtle shell into pieces."
But immediately after, he saw Peter and Pietro's attacks fail one after another, and were sent flying in embarrassment by the shield's rebound.
Especially the scene where Pietro kicked it, not only failing to break the defense, but instead being blasted flying into the sky.
This made Tony frown again.
"Vibranium's kinetic energy absorption and rebound mechanism is too abnormal. This metal violates the law of conservation of energy!"
"It absorbs the attacker's kinetic energy and then instantly releases it to rebound back to the attacker. This means the harder you attack, the greater the backlash you receive."
"How do you fight this? It is simply an insoluble loop!"
Steve also saw the clue.
He touched the shield beside him, also crafted from Vibranium, and his gaze turned solemn.
"The shield and my shield are made of the same material. I know the characteristics of Vibranium too well."
"Without boasting, I once used my shield to block shells from a heavy tank, and the recoil force was almost zero."
"If that dome has the same characteristic, then Luca is probably going to hit a brick wall today."
Saying this, Steve shook his head.
"He shouldn't have let Wanda stop. If magic was used, perhaps it could be disintegrated from the inside. Relying on fists? No chance at all."
Wong also nodded repeatedly from the side.
"Captain Rogers is right. Physical attacks are ineffective against the shield. Mr. Luca is too arrogant."
However.
Ancient One, who had been silent all along, narrowed her eyes slightly, and the Eye of Agamotto on her chest also began to emit a faint green light.
"No. You are all wrong."
"There is nothing absolutely indestructible in this world. Any energy field has a tolerance limit."
"If it were an ordinary person, they would indeed fall into a dead loop."
Saying this, Ancient One quietly looked at Luca on the screen, her gaze profound.
"But do not forget, standing there is a variable that can assimilate Chaos Magic."
As soon as the voice fell.
In the water mirror, Luca threw his first punch.
"Bang!!!"
Although separated by a distant space, the water mirror did not have the function of transmitting sound.
But just seeing the distortion caused by the collision in the picture, and the dazzling blue light bursting across the surface of the shield.
The four of them could completely feel the destructive power contained in that punch!
"Motherfucker!"
Steve was dumbfounded.
He gasped, subconsciously touching his own neck.
"I am starting to rejoice now that I did not actually beat him up back then. Otherwise, these old bones of mine might have already turned into a pile of minced meat."
"This kid is even more dangerous than the shells Howardbuilt back then!"
And on the screen.
Luca's attack did not stop.
His double fists turned into afterimages, frantically bombarding the shield.
Every time he smashed down, the light of the shield dimmed by a fraction.
Wong was already dumbfounded, somewhat unable to believe what he was seeing.
"This... what kind of attack is this?!"
"Even the Titan behemoths of ancient times did not have such terrifying physical strength!"
"Could it be that Mr. Luca has been hiding his strength all this time during that period in New York?"
"The few punches he just blasted out could directly knock out Hulk!!"
"This is no longer fighting, it is more like dismantling the world!"
Tony, who knew Luca's strength, was not too surprised.
What truly made him feel strange was the shield's reaction.
After staring at the screen for a while, he captured a detail.
"Wait! Look at the energy rebounded by the shield!"
Tony pointed at the water mirror and shouted loudly.
"The shield did rebound after absorbing kinetic energy! But the rebound force did not cause any harm to Luca!"
"Look, the energy disappeared the moment it contacted Luca!"
"So, this was absorbed by him!"
Seeing everyone's confusion, Tony patiently explained.
"You might not know, Luca's ability is similar to Vibranium; he can also absorb all forms of energy, including kinetic energy."
"So the shield is absorbing his kinetic energy, and he is absorbing the kinetic energy rebounded by the shield! This is treating the shield as a power bank!"
"He is using the enemy's defense mechanism to strengthen his next attack!"
Tony crossed his arms with a proud look.
"This is an insoluble perpetual motion machine! The stronger the shield, the more he absorbs, and the heavier his punches become! Until the shield's energy transmission system collapses due to overload!"
Hearing Tony's analysis.
Steve and Sorcerer Wong both gasped.
Monster!
This is definitely a thorough monster!
Able to swallow even the enemy's defensive counterattack as a tonic, what else in this world can kill him?
Hearing this, a trace of solemnity flashed in The Ancient One's eyes.
Her guess was right.
Luca can not only assimilate magic, but also perform predatory absorption ignoring any form of energy laws.
If such an existence stands on humanity's side, it is the gospel of Earth.
But if one day he goes out of control...
That would be a universal-level disaster even more terrifying than Dormammu's descent.
In the screen of the water mirror.
Luca stopped his continuous bombardment.
He took a deep breath, and a dazzling light lit up on his right fist.
Obviously, he was preparing to deliver the final blow.
In the tea room.
The four of them held their breath in unison.
No one spoke.
Just because the shield proclaimed to be the sturdiest on Earth was about to be smashed to pieces by a human with his bare fists!
Chapter 185 Justice League, Assemble!! (Two-in-one)
"Now, it is my turn to come in as a guest."
As the words fell.
Luca's right fist suddenly swung out.
This punch carried the power plundered from the shield during the hundreds of blows just now, which underwent a qualitative change in his body and piled up together!
Several thousand tons? Tens of thousands of tons?
No!
At the moment of swinging this punch, a brief vacuum zone had already appeared around Luca's arm.
The air was instantly evacuated, and the surrounding light was distorted due to this ultimate power.
The power of this punch was already approaching the megaton level!
This was no longer a human attack, but an asteroid striking Earth at supersonic speed!
"Boom!!!"
Accompanied by a loud explosion.
Luca's right fist smashed onto the shield.
Time seemed to have stopped.
Then.
In the horrified gazes of everyone.
The shield, claimed to be able to withstand nuclear bombs and having guarded Wakanda for countless centuries... made a cracking sound.
A tiny crack slowly appeared.
Then.
Like a chain reaction, the crack rapidly expanded and spread!
A large number of cracks instantly crawled over the surface of the shield!
"Bang!!!"
Accompanied by a deafening shattering sound.
The shield exploded!
Countless purple energy fragments splashed in all directions like hail all over the sky.
Then they turned into spots of light and dissipated in mid-air.
The violent shockwave swept down.
Bearing the brunt of it were T'Challa, who stood directly in front of the shield, as well as the ready Royal Guard and armored rhinos.
"Ah!!!"
A shrill scream sounded.
Whether fully armed soldiers or huge rhinos.
In front of this devastating shockwave, everyone was instantly blown away!
The Earth trembled violently.
A layer of turf was scraped off the ground, revealing red soil.
Seeing this, Luca slowly withdrew his right fist.
At this moment, he was flying in mid-air, his black cloak flapping in the wind.
Like a demon god descending to the world.
The whole audience was silent.
Except for the whistling wind and sand, no other sound could be heard.
Whether the people outside the shield or inside the shield, all were terrified to the extreme.
...
"This... How is this possible..."
Behind Luca, Peter was dumbfounded.
He was still a bit stunned, what had he just witnessed with his own eyes?
Such a hard shield...
Mr. Luca... actually used only one punch!
And just one punch!
Smashed the seemingly invincible energy shield into pieces?!
Peter swallowed a mouthful of saliva, feeling his worldview being reshaped.
"Is this Stark-style deliverance..." He muttered to himself.
"If I could have this kind of power when facing Doctor Octopus in the laboratory back then..."
"No! If I had this kind of power, why would I be a friendly neighborhood Spider-Man? I could directly become the god of New York!"
Pietro was even more scared out of his wits.
Super Speed in front of that world-destroying punch seemed so ridiculous.
"What the hell... What kind of monster is he?"
Pietro took several steps back until his back pressed against a protruding rock.
He finally understood why Luca had only used one slap to send him flying into the wall in the hotel that day.
That was not Luca's full strength, he was fucking just playing with him!
If that punch just now hit him...
Thinking of this, Pietro shivered.
He felt he didn't even have the qualification to become meat paste.
He would probably be vaporized directly, leaving not even a single cell behind.
"I swear, I will never curse him behind his back again."
"In the future, if Luca tells me to clean the toilet, I'll clean the toilet; if he tells me to wait tables, I'll wait tables."
Meanwhile, Wanda's reaction on the side was completely different.
Her eyes flashed with a strange red light, staring fixedly at Luca in mid-air who looked like a deity.
"So strong..."
Wanda's breathing became rapid.
She felt an unprecedented sense of security.
This was her man!
"He doesn't need anyone's protection, because he is the most powerful existence in this world."
Wanda's heartbeat was as fierce as beating drums.
She began to fantasize, if she could stand by Luca's side forever, if she could keep charging him, how wonderful that would be.
What revenge, what Hydra, none of it mattered anymore.
As long as Luca was around, no one could hurt her.
Gwen was also full of shock.
Although she knew Luca was very strong.
But she never thought that Luca's power could reach this point of tearing heaven and Earth apart.
"Is this what you called... knocking on the door?"
Gwen looked at Luca's broad back and couldn't help smiling bitterly.
"With this kind of knocking method, I guess even the door frame will be torn down together. However..."
Gwen smiled sweetly.
"This is the man of the Stark Family."
"Overbearing, unreasonable, but irresistible."
The scattered blue energy fragments all over the sky, like light rain, appeared desolate and deadly under the refraction of sunlight.
And at the cabin door of the justice transport plane.
The trays held by Natasha and Jessica had long fallen to the ground, the goblets smashed to pieces, and the red wine spilled all over the floor.
But they didn't notice at all.
Their eyes stared fixedly at the demon-like back below the shield, both shocked beyond measure.
"This... This is impossible..."
Natasha muttered to herself.
As an Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., she had executed countless almost impossible missions.
But the scene before her completely shattered the common sense she had built as an Agent.
That was a shield with Vibranium properties!
In S.H.I.E.L.D.'s archives, this level of energy shield theoretically required several nuclear bombs to detonate simultaneously at the same point to cause structural damage!
And Luca Stark used only one punch!
Jessica's reaction was even more violent than Natasha's.
She had thought she had witnessed Luca's horror for so long, and she thought that was the limit of human mutation.
But she was wrong, outrageously wrong.
"Monster... He is simply not an Earth creature..."
Jessica's legs softened, and she involuntarily slumped to the ground.
Cold sweat instantly soaked her back, making the maid outfit cling tightly to her body, looking exceptionally disheveled.
She felt her soul trembling.
If she had the slightest thought of assassinating him in the Villa last time.
Then she would probably have already disappeared from this world.
But after all, these two had top-tier professional ethics.
After a brief fear, professional instinct made them react quickly.
Natasha slightly turned her head, and the miniature one-way video communicator disguised as an earring on her left earlobe was flashing with a subtle light invisible to the naked eye.
She knew that Nick Fury far away in Washington must have seen all this.
"Director..."
Natasha said silently in her heart.
"Give up. Don't think about the Avengers Initiativeanymore. In front of him, S.H.I.E.L.D. doesn't even have the qualification to be cannon fodder."
...
Meanwhile.
In an underground safe house in Washington, D.C.
"Clack!"
Nick Fury's pen was squeezed into two pieces by him, and the ink splashed onto his mud-stained trench coat.
On the safe house screen, high-definition footage of Luca shattering the shield with one punch was frozen.
Fury's single eye was covered with scarlet bloodshots, and his breathing was as heavy as if he had just finished picking cotton.
"Motherfucker! What the fuck kind of monster is this!"
Fury suddenly stood up and kicked over the chair with one foot.
Although he was wary of Luca before, he only thought he was a powerful person with Superpowers.
As long as they used strategies and resources, there was always a way to keep him in check.
But now, calculation and pride had all turned into ridiculous bubbles.
A monster that could shatter nuclear-level defense with bare hands, what would you use to keep in check?
With your mouth?!
"Director..."
Coulson, standing aside, looked serious and spoke hesitatingly.
"Our... Are our previous plans regarding Stark still going to be executed?"
Fury was silent for a long time.
Finally, he slumped back into the chair, looking as if he had aged ten years.
"Cancel all plans."
Fury closed his eyes, a deep sense of powerlessness enveloping him.
"Order Natasha to stop probing. If she can't stay in Stark Tower anymore, find a way to evacuate safely."
"Also, destroy these plans immediately."
Fury clenched his teeth and issued this extremely humiliating order.
"Do not provoke the Stark Brothers anymore. Solving Hydra first is our top priority!"
"If we provoke him now, S.H.I.E.L.D.'s end will definitely be much more miserable than this shield."
...
And at the other end of Washington.
Hydra's secret command center.
Pierce stared fixedly at the screen, which was playing the footage transmitted back by the hidden camera on Jessica's chest.
"No... This is impossible..."
"Dr. Zola's calculation was wrong! His power has no upper limit at all!"
Pierce felt that he was already facing his doom.
Hydra has been searching for the ultimate weapon for decades.
The god-seeking project, various genetic mutants, attempting to decode the secrets of the Universe.
They thought they had mastered the code of worldprogress.
But now, Luca told him what a true god is.
If Luca was willing, he could wipe out Hydra single-handedly!
"Minister..."
Agent Sitwell beside him spoke with some concern.
"Should we... have the mercenaries on the perimeter preparing to infiltrate Wakanda retreat? If he discovers that we want to take advantage of the chaos..."
"Retreat?"
Pierce looked at him, his eyes bloodshot.
"No! We cannot retreat!"
"We must never let them have the chance to expose the traces of the organization!"
"Give the order immediately! Detonate the bombs inside the peripheral mercenaries and Agent!"
Sitwell widened his eyes in shock.
"Minister! Those are the last few hundred elites we have left in Africa..."
"I said, kill all of them, damn it!"
Pierce roared hysterically.
"Dead people are the safest! If Luca Stark traces the clues to find out that we want to snatch his things, Hydra will be completely finished!"
After saying that, Pierce collapsed into his chair and wiped a cold sweat.
"Tell Jessica, no matter what Luca makes her do, she must obey. Even if it is to make her die, she has to die with a smile for me!"
"From now on, when Hydra members hear the three words Stark, all of you fucking give me a wide berth!"
Beneath the shield.
The Wakanda army had already fallen into panic.
T'Challa, blown away by the Shockwave, struggled to crawl up from the mud.
His impervious Vibranium combat suit was unexpectedly covered in dust.
"This... This is impossible!"
T'Challa looked at the shattered hole in the sky, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief.
Wakanda's energy shield was actually shattered?!
Shattered by a human with a single punch?!
This broke Wakanda's understanding of technology for so many years!
"How on Earth did he do it? Why did the shield's kinetic energy absorption system fail?!"
T'Challa's brain was in complete chaos.
His faith had already collapsed.
He always thought that the outside world's technology was backward trash, and thought Wakanda was an invincible divine kingdom on Earth.
But now, Luca told him with a single punch.
Your so-called invincibility is just because you are hiding at the bottom of a well!
Okoye, the Captain of the royal guard standing behind T'Challa, was so shocked that even her spear dropped to the ground.
"Is this the gods punishing us?!"
Okoye's lips trembled violently, her eyes filled with despair.
As Wakanda's fiercest female warrior, she was not afraid of death, nor afraid of bloodshed.
But facing this power that transcended the scope of mortal understanding.
She felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
"Even the shield was shattered with one punch, can our spears really Pierce the opponent's body?"
On the other side, Wakanda's border garrison legion began to show commotion.
These usually well-trained soldiers were now quietly retreating backward.
Fear spread through the army like a plague.
Inside the Wakanda Palace strategic command hall.
"Alarm! Shield has overloaded and collapsed! Defense system is completely offline!"
The harsh alarm sound echoed in the hall.
The old king T'Chaka collapsed onto the throne, the scepter in his hand clattering to the ground.
At this moment, his majestic face was filled with disbelief.
"Shattered... Really shattered..."
T'Chaka muttered to himself, seeming to have aged ten years.
He never expected that Stark Industries' visit would be in this manner.
"Father! What should we do?!"
Princess Shuri, in charge of technology, was so anxious she was about to cry.
She frantically tapped the keyboard on the console, attempting to restart the backup shield.
But the system showed that the energy transmission pipeline was paralyzed in the backlash of that previous strike.
"The opponent's power reading exceeded the system detection limit!"
"This is simply unscientific! Is he a nuclear bomb generator?!"
Shuri looked at Luca's image on the screen, losing her focus in silence.
"If the opponent throws another punch, what will happen?"
Meanwhile.
Himalayas, in the tea room of Kamar-Taj.
"Snap!"
Steve's lighter dropped onto the cushion, almost igniting his robe.
But he couldn't be bothered to care, instead staring intently at the suffocating scene in the water mirror.
"What the fuck..."
Steve swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
"Is this kid still a carbon-based organism?!"
"How many tons of strength is this?! Even if I added up all the potatoes I ate in Europe back then, I couldn't hit even one ten-thousandth of this kind of strength!"
Seeming to think of something, Steve turned his head to look at Wong and Ancient One.
"Which of you said earlier that physical attacks are ineffective against shields? Step out!!"
Wong was somewhat dumbfounded at this moment.
"Vishanti above..."
"He blasted through the shield's bearing limit with sheer strength!"
"If that punch just now hit Kamar-Taj's magic shield..."
Master Wong shivered, not daring to think further down.
It is estimated that even his own skull would be shattered together.
Just when the two were shocked beyond measure.
Tony suddenly laughed instead.
"Hahaha!"
"Well done, Luca! This is a man of the Stark Family!"
Tony of course was not shocked.
He was the person who was personally injected with the super serum by Luca, and also the only one who personally experienced the terrifying amplification of that combat suit.
To be honest, he knew all too well where the bottom line of Luca's strength was.
"Destructive power of over one hundred thousand tons? This is just a warmup."
Tony looked at Steve and Wong, who were full of shock, and raised his eyebrows smugly.
"Old Popsicle, fatty. Don't make those inexperienced looks, it's not like you haven't seen Luca display power."
"Of course, most importantly, the combat suit on him is an artifact capable of absorbing all energy and multiplying it exponentially."
Speaking of this, Tony smiled proudly.
"How could a single shield stop him?"
"Now you know why I dared to safely hand the company over to him?"
"With him around, no one on Earth would dare to point fingers at Stark Industries. Even if the Universe overlord comes, they still have to obediently line up and pay protection money!"
The Ancient One, who had been silent all along, slowly put away the shock in her eyes at this moment.
It wasn't like she hadn't seen powerful people.
But someone with such terrifying physical strength, she had only seen two people.
Thinking of this, she gently sighed.
"Mr. Tony is right."
"Luca's power has already surpassed our conventional cognition."
Seeing everyone look over, Ancient One's gaze became profound and complex.
"I hope he can always maintain this sanity. Otherwise, this Universe will usher in a catastrophe even more terrifying than the descent of the dark demon god."
Sight returned to Wakanda.
As the shield shattered, the smoke and dust all over the sky gradually dissipated.
Luca slowly descended from mid-air, steadily standing on the land of Wakanda.
Peter, Gwen, Wanda, and Pietro also followed closely, landing beside him.
Justice League officially stepped onto this holy land hidden for thousands of years.
Luca looked at those Wakanda soldiers holding spears ahead who dared not step forward.
"Alright, the brick to knock on the door has been delivered."
"Since the Master of the house does not plan to come out to greet us, we have no choice but to go in ourselves."
"Prepare for battle, everyone."
"Remember, we are here for poverty alleviation."
"If they are unwilling to accept our goodwill, then break their legs and make them kneel on the ground to accept it."
"Roar!"
In the Wakanda army, T'Challa finally reacted from the shock.
He knew that if he could not stop these people here today, Wakanda's secrets would be completely exposed to the entire world.
"For Wakanda!"
T'Challa roared, his hands' sharp claws popping out.
"All troops attack! Kill them!"
"For Wakanda!!!"
Okoye and the royal guard shouted in unison, and thousands of soldiers raised their energy guns, launching a charge towards Luca and the others!
The huge armored rhinoceros let out a heaven-shaking roar, and followed along, trampling over.
"Well timed!"
Luca sneered, the cape behind him suddenly burst open, turning into four thick black tentacles.
"Let me see, how much capability do you barbarians holding golden rice bowls and begging actually have."
"Justice League, assemble!!"
