c193 Bucky, are you going to kill me?
“Bucky! Bucky! Bucky!”
Steve Rogers ran quickly towards the deep pit shrouded in red and hot knife-shaped air waves.
But Tony Stark on the side used the powerful sensory scanning ability given by the armor to see a quite horrifying scene through the thick smoke and dust:
Through the smoke and dust, the humanoid heat source, which is suspected to be Bucky the Winter Soldier, is accelerating in temperature at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the energy peak is rising steadily. It can even be said that the body has undergone abnormal changes…
He couldn’t help shouting in shock,
“Steve! Don’t get anywhere near there!”
But how could Steve Rogers listen to Tony Stark’s words?
At this moment, he only cared about his good brother Bucky. Such a tragic and horrific scene just now was like a cold hand holding his heart tightly.
Without the slightest hesitation, he walked straight through the smoke and came to the slumped figure on the ground. He knelt down and knelt down.
tremblingly stretched out his hand,
But when Steve Rogers’ palm touched what should have been Bucky’s skin, he didn’t feel the touch of human skin.
On the contrary, it is an indescribable weird touch, slippery, cold, and hard, like scales covered with sticky fluid, like a terrifying monster from the deep sea,
! ?
Steve Rogers was stunned and turned his head to look at that familiar face.
But it has already changed,
The hardened gray-black bones protrude, covering the original skin, like the breathing holes of cold-blooded snakes, and the narrow eye sockets without eyelids,
The sharp, turbid yellow pupils were covered with bloodshot eyes, and the eyes had lost their original clarity, and were shrouded in a variety of complex emotions such as violence, doubt, and anger.
The metal mechanical arm that exuded silvery white luster became more and more ferocious at this moment, with thick and long gray-black tentacles like blood vessels spreading and intertwining.
The metal shell on the shoulder was torn and expanded from the inside, and densely packed sharp bone thorns proliferated, growing outward like the thorns of a rose.
In the center, there is a vertical eyeball the size of a fist, with huge blood-colored pupils rotating.
“Ba…ji…”
Steve Rogers seemed to have been drained of all his strength.
He watched helplessly as his former friend turned into a monster.
Although he had a premonition, Steve Rogers still couldn’t believe it when this happened in front of his eyes.
The next moment, that hideous and ugly arm covered with gray-black bones suddenly poked out from the smoke and dust that had not dispersed.
Straight away, he caught the unsuspecting Steve Rogers.
Cold and hard claws strangled Steve Rogers’ neck.
He couldn’t help but blush, even turning a little purple.
The sudden change left almost everyone in the venue stunned.
They had not yet recovered from the fact that Bucky, the Winter Soldier, suddenly turned into an ugly and hideous monster.
Then we saw the scene where Steve Rogers was almost strangled to death.
Such a sudden change caused what was originally an infighting between the Avengers.
In other words, the game was forced to deviate from its original trajectory.
If we say that in the previous battles between them, there was a certain degree of restraint and a lot of letting go. After all, they were all good friends in the past and there was no need to make a fatal move.
But now, at the moment when casualties may actually occur, the Avengers are completely panicked.
The situation is out of control!
“team leader!”
“Steve!”
The Avengers who screamed subconsciously wanted to step forward to rescue the restrained Steve Rogers.
The propulsion engine nozzle behind Tony Stark spurted out dazzling tail flames. The palm cannon in his hand was raised, and it lit up as it began to accumulate energy.
Hawkeye Barton also gave up the fight with Black Panther Tracha, turned around, and pointed the bow and arrow in his hand at the completely changed and alienated Bucky.
…
But what they didn’t expect was that it was this move that disturbed Bucky, who was currently in a confused state of consciousness. The strength in his hands could not help but increase a bit.
“Buck… I… am… Steve…husband,”
Even though he was choked by this huge force and was a little breathless, and the pain on the verge of suffocation swept through his body, he still couldn’t stop the cold, cruel Bucky in front of him, who was wearing a monster skin.
Steve Rogers could only try his best to spit out a few words from his throat that was already oppressed and could barely emit a trace of energy.
Perhaps it was fate that Steve Rogers’ words really seemed to wake up Bucky, who had turned into a monster in front of him, for a moment.
“S… Steve?”
A low and hoarse voice came from the mouth of this humanoid monster, as if he was confused, and there was a trace of struggle in his eyes.
Also taking advantage of this moment of relaxation,
The eagle-eyed Barton, who had been holding his breath and concentrating with a long bow, seized the opportunity, pulled the bowstring, his eyes were like a torch,
“Whoosh——”
Along with the loud sound of breaking through the air, a long and narrow arrow shot towards Bucky.
But it was only at that moment that the strange eyeballs that proliferated and grew on Bucky’s shoulders moved for a moment.
In a flash of lightning, Bucky suddenly raised his arm,
The claws covered by tough scales directly caught the arrow that Hawkeye Barton had placed great hope on.
“?”
Hawkeye Barton was stunned for a moment. There was no doubt that Bucky’s ability to catch the arrow he shot was indeed beyond his expectation.
But it was just a little unexpected,
After all, the last person who dared to catch his arrow so directly had already paid a heavy price.
Seemingly confirming Hawkeye Barton’s idea, the arrow caught by Bucky, the gap in the metal tapered arrow part, flickered with little red lights, and screamed rapidly,
Realizing something was wrong, Bucky wanted to throw the arrow out, but it was too late.
next moment,
“boom–”
The scorching firelight filled Bucky’s eyes and engulfed his arms,
The spreading pain made Bucky roar.
The arm that was holding Steve Rogers loosened up.
Steve Rogers, who had lost his restraints, gasped for air, feeling the long-lost air and freedom, and collapsed to the ground, his purple face slowly fading away.
As a “World War II veteran” who has experienced hundreds of tragic battles, large and small, Steve Rogers has not never experienced the feeling of dying in his long life.
Although he was able to save the day every time, the despair of being killed by his deeply trusted good friend Bucky with his own hands, this kind of deep despair is unique.
At this moment, Steve Rogers was in a state of shock and could not calm down for a long time.
He helplessly asked in his mind:
“Bucky, are you going to kill me?”
It’s just that Steve Rogers wasn’t given much time to think.
Being injured by the explosive arrow also completely angered Bucky, who was now confused.
He roared angrily, and the next moment, his figure almost disappeared from where he was,
Hawkeye Barton also immediately realized that his situation might become quite critical. Even if he wanted to retreat tactically,
But the dark wind coming from behind made Hawkeye Barton’s heart sink to the bottom.
It’s Bucky!
Bucky, who was extremely fast, covered the distance between him and Hawkeye Barton in just a few seconds.
A ferocious figure appeared behind Barton, raised its sharp and long claws, and swung them down quickly, leaving no doubt that it could tear apart steel.
As a sensitive and crisp shooter, Hawkeye Barton, whose physical fitness is only slightly stronger than that of ordinary humans, how can he withstand the attack of such a monster?
“Barton!!!”
“Get out of the way!!!”
Black Widow Natasha shouted unbearably,
She simply could no longer accept that her former friends fell down and died tragically in front of her eyes.
However, everything is far from over,
“boom–”
Tony Stark, covered by a steel mask, had a face as cold as frost at this moment.
If Steve Rogers was clamped around the neck by Bucky who transformed into a monster, Tony Stark was stunned and missed the opportunity.
But this time, Tony Stark will never watch his comrades die!
Without hesitation, he raised the pulse beam that had been charged and prepared.
Under the smart locking scan of the armor, a blazing pulse beam ray was emitted.
But Tony Stark still stayed, considering Steve Rogers’ sake.
So this seemingly sharp blow has more of a repelling effect.
“boom–”
Bucky was hit by the pulse beam and flew several meters away.
The high temperature left burning marks on the surface of its scales, as well as painful roars.
Steve Rogers was extremely worried when he saw this scene. Whether it was Bucky who had turned into a monster and was injured, or whether he was injured as a comrade who had fought side by side, it was something he couldn’t accept.
But obviously Bucky is more important in Steve Rogers’ heart.
Stubbornly believing that Bucky’s current state is just that his mind is controlled by monsters and he has lost the ability to control himself.
Steve Rogers was ready to try his usual “talking” and shouted loudly:
“Bucky! Wake up!”
“We are not your enemies!!”
However, Steve Rogers’ words were like silence at this moment, unable to stir up any waves.
Bucky’s mind was already shrouded in anger, and he was fighting for control of his body with an abnormal consciousness that did not belong to him, causing confusion in his thinking. Bucky was unable to respond to Steve Rogers’ call at all.
It was also at this moment that a figure walked out of the truck hall that had been completely reduced to ruins.
The cold and indifferent voice echoed in the venue, already in the ears of everyone present,
“They’re not your enemy, but I am.”
Almost everyone turned their heads and looked at this figure.
The successive changes made the Avengers almost forget about him.
It’s Link,
At this moment, Link was holding the [Molting Lin Knife] that looked like it was made of magma, and he put it on his shoulder casually.
He looked at the completely alienated Winter Soldier Bucky with great interest.
In fact, Link was a little surprised that Bucky could transform into such a posture.
Maybe it had some abnormal reaction with that super soldier serum?
But, it’s still too weak.
As if sensing Link’s disdainful attitude, Bucky raised his head thoughtfully.
The turbid yellow beast pupils shrank, staring closely at the figure wearing red armor in front of him.
As if destined enemies met, Bucky was driven by an inexplicable impulse to completely tear the figure in front of him to pieces.
But the remaining reason is constantly issuing warnings about the huge threat contained in the figure in front of him!
Also aware of Bucky’s gaze, Link glanced at him.
Raised the [Melted Scale Knife] in his hand,
“I don’t like your eyes.”
Swept down suddenly, the sharp blade cut through the air, sweeping the gathered red energy and surging,
The explosive power contained in the ultimate fire was fully displayed at this moment,
The red knife-shaped air wave cut by the [Melted Scale Knife] condensed into shape and attacked Bucky,
The fierce attack that appeared in front of them again made everyone a little dazed,
Steve Rogers also immediately realized the terrifying energy contained in it, thinking of the scene that might happen, he couldn’t help but shout,
“Bucky!”
And Bucky, who was ready for battle, also moved, the huge eyeball on his shoulder turned, and the third eyeball belonging to Bucky played an unexpected role at this moment,
“Boom–”
The red knife-shaped air wave caused a lot of damage again, shrouded in smoke and dust,
It also made Steve Rogers’ mind a mess, neither up nor down,
But Link did not put away the knife, but continued to stare at the smoke and dust. area,
When the smoke and dust cleared, almost everyone was stunned,
Baki stood in the center of the venue, and the metal mechanical arm with a large eyeball was raised,
and the gray-black tentacles extended out, intertwined with each other, and intertwined into a huge oval shield-like creation, blocking the front, deeply piercing into the concrete floor, forming an inclined angle,
After resisting the red knife-shaped air wave, this seemingly tough shield also suffered considerable damage, and the burn marks were spread over most of the area, concave inward,
Link couldn’t help but speak,
“Not bad, you can take my attack,”
“But, what about the next attack?”
There was no time for Buggy to continue breathing. After all, Link was not a turn-based monster in an RPG game,
Haha, the seemingly powerful red knife-shaped air wave just now was just Link’s superficial use of the elemental power he possessed, and it was not even a formal skill,
It was just a flat attack.
But next, Link had to be a little more serious.
He quickly raised the [Melted Scale Blade] in his hand, holding the hilt tightly with both hands,
waving the blade, and slashing it in the air.
The red and hot knife-shaped air wave appeared again, but the difference from before was that
this time the knife-shaped air wave overlapped together, and the energy became more condensed, forming a cross.
The scorching breath emitted by the cross slash seemed to rapidly increase the temperature around,
attacking Bucky who had not yet reacted,
Steve Rogers on the side widened his eyes, as if he did not expect Link to be so decisive,
without much hesitation, he flew forward and blocked in front of Bucky…
