Chapter 74

"Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle—" The scorching ray shone onto the coffee, and in the blink of an eye, wisps of steam drifted out.

Everyone looked at Su Quan, suddenly unsure of how to evaluate his actions.

If we're talking about knowing how to play, you really know how to play!

"A reward delivered to my doorstep first thing in the morning; it looks like today will be another day full of harvests."

Su Quan opened the system to tally the gains from this recent wave.

Bucky, Sharon, Hope, Spider-Man, and Happy had all attacked the zombie Falcon.

He had also joined in, but since he only had a head and no hands, he couldn't attack and could only stare blankly.

Come to think of it, don't let Happy's potbelly fool you into thinking he's just an ordinary person; I hadn't noticed before, but he has an Iron Man palm repulsor, so he still has some combat capability.

The zombie Falcon's six drop rewards were two sets of Redwing suits and 20 points.

In addition to wings that can retract freely, the Redwing suit is equipped with a Redwing drone, which contains Stark Industries' artificial intelligence technology.

The Redwing drone also contains three micro-drones and is equipped with 360-degree scanning cameras.

It can fight independently and can also fire a new type of pulsed red laser.

Although it cannot achieve heavy firepower output like Iron Man or War Machine, it is perfectly adequate as a scout and support unit.

Bucky, Sharon, Hope, Spider-Man, and Happy dropped: a vibranium mechanical arm, Pym particles, spider-sense, a palm repulsor, and 3 points, respectively.

Never mind the vibranium mechanical arm and Pym particles, what on earth is a palm repulsor?

Happy wears a palm repulsor, and the system judges his equipment to be a palm repulsor?

Forget it, a palm repulsor is a palm repulsor; at least it counts as firepower, and in any case, it's better than dropping points.

Speaking of points, it's just the right time to upgrade the combat detection Detection Range.

With a few dinging notification sounds, the system's combat detection Detection Range had been upgraded to 600 meters.

Su Quan took out a palm repulsor and controlled it to fly toward Sharon's left hand.

The palm repulsor made contact with Sharon's hand, directly deforming and covering it.

"Huh?" Sharon Carter looked at the palm repulsor on her left hand in surprise, then looked at Su Quan in astonishment.

"You, how do you have one too?" Happy looked at his own, then at Sharon's, and couldn't help but ask.

Su Quan smiled and teased Happy: "If you perform well in the upcoming battles, let alone a palm repulsor, I can even lend you an Iron Man suit to wear, letting you experience Tony's joy."

"You have an Iron Man suit too?" Happy's eyes widened.

Su Quan shrugged noncommittally: "Whatever I want, I have."

"Alright, honestly, I really do want to experience Tony's joy—I mean the suit, not anything else."

"Nobody said anything else."

"Oh."

Happy's self-incrimination made everyone smile knowingly, and the atmosphere was finally not as oppressive and gloomy as before.

"Swish!"

Su Quan opened a portal, the location being outside Bleecker Street.

A group of zombies was wandering about, and upon seeing the living people in the portal, they excitedly lunged toward them.

Without Su Quan needing to say a word, Bucky and the others had already begun firing at will.

"Da-da-da!"

"Bang!"

The sounds of gunfire and explosions rose one after another; zombies fell one by one, and others drawn by the noise came to fill their spots.

Su Quan sat leisurely on the steps drinking coffee, enjoying the comfort of the crazy drop rewards.

Bucky and the others were hiding inside the portal, firing safely at will; every time a zombie fell, both they and the fallen zombie would drop rewards.

This way of farming rewards made Su Quan like this place more and more.

Zombie apocalypse?

No, no, no!

This is clearly a super dungeon for farming rewards like crazy!

In just over ten minutes, a huge pile of vibranium mechanical arms, Super Soldier Serum, Pym particles, and palm repulsors had already dropped!

"Happy."

Su Quan called out.

Hearing the call, Happy turned around subconsciously, and immediately saw two brand-new palm repulsors flying over.

"Awesome!" Happy excitedly took off his old palm repulsors and put on the brand-new ones on both hands.

While firing, he even made artificial "bang-bang-bang" sound effects with his mouth.

The continuous sounds of battle attracted zombies from afar in an endless stream.

The bullets in Bucky and Sharon's guns had long since run out; except for the head, everyone was now using palm repulsors on both hands.

Another wave of zombies fell, and the new wave had not yet entered the attack Detection Range.

Bucky breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to lower his arms like the others to take a moment to rest, but the corner of his eye suddenly caught a black dot rapidly enlarging.

It was an arrow!

Bucky didn't even think; he pushed the person beside him away and used his mechanical arm to catch the arrow that had been shot at high speed!

A beeping sound rang out from the arrowhead; Bucky cursed to himself, just about to throw the explosive arrow away.

"Bang!"

The arrowhead exploded.

Bucky instinctively turned to the side to shield his face, but he didn't feel any impact.

He looked up in confusion and was shocked to find that a red energy had appeared in front of him.

It was precisely this red energy that had blocked the impact of the explosion.

It's just—

Why did this red energy look somewhat familiar? How was it so much like Wanda's?

"It's Hawkeye."

"And Captain Steve Rogers."

The people who had reacted quickly discovered Hawkeye, who was limping but still drawing his bow and shooting arrows, and Captain America, who was holding his shield, among the zombie horde.

Looking at the terrifying, skeletal Steve Rogers, Sharon Carter sighed in regret.

The light that people worshipped had merged into the darkness, no longer able to guide the way for the desperate or bring hope.

"Bang!"

Sharon Carter raised her hand to shoot down an arrow fired by Hawkeye, and then her arm vibrated as she fired her palm repulsors without hesitation.

"R-really, do we have to do this? That's Captain America! I mean, we could control him first; if we succeed, he might be able to return to normal."

Spider-Man gestured wildly, looking flustered at Sharon Carter, who was firing.

"Don't ask me," Sharon Carter answered bluntly.

It wasn't that she wanted to kill the Captain; it was that if they didn't kill the Captain, they couldn't deal with Wakanda's control with peace of mind.

Controlling the Captain was certainly the best choice, but how to control him?

If Su Quan didn't make a move, none of them could guarantee that the Captain wouldn't cause trouble at a critical moment.

"Captain—"

Su Quan looked at Steve Rogers, who was stumbling along and occasionally raising his shield to block, sighed meaningfully, and slowly raised his hand.

Within the zombie horde, the shield in zombie Captain America's hand suddenly began to tremble violently; he looked down at the shield in confusion.

The shield suddenly flew into the air with him in tow with a "whoosh," then crossed the wall of cars and landed straight in front of Su Quan.

???

Zombie Captain America was a bit dazed for a few seconds, and then, having reacted, he threw the shield directly at Su Quan.

Straight and powerful.

Su Quan tapped the flying shield lightly with his finger; the shield stopped instantly in front of him and then obediently fell into his hand.

"I have a shield just like this one."

With a sigh, Su Quan threw the shield to Bucky.

"It's mine; borrow it for now."

Bucky took the shield and buckled it onto his back with a natural motion.

(How did he buckle it on? Hehe, if you ask, it's metaphysics; if you ask, it's heritage.)
