Chapter 143: The Angry Hulk

I am now adding the chapter I owed everyone last time.

Tank after tank became scrap metal under the Hulk's feet, and soldier after soldier was slammed into the ground by the Hulk, dying without suspense. Even those who didn't die were left crippled.

Modern military forces were like infants in the face of the Hulk's power, being slaughtered without any ability to fight back.

General Luo Si's face turned bitter as he watched this scene. "Super Soldier, can you deal with him?"

"I can try." The face of the Super Soldier, wearing his standard uniform, also darkened.

He had originally thought that dealing with a tiny mutant would be the easiest thing in the world. He never imagined the Hulk would be this formidable, treating tanks like toys and destroying them at will. This kind of power was beyond what he could handle. However, having great power didn't mean one would necessarily win; there were many factors that determined victory.

"Then I'll leave it to you." General Luo Si gave a deep military salute.

He realized now that he had brought this disaster upon himself. He shouldn't have gone to such lengths to provoke him in a bid to obtain the power within his body. He should have faced him more peacefully. Perhaps if he had chosen to talk it out in the beginning, the current losses wouldn't have occurred.

Outside, the calls for sanctions against the military were growing louder. The military was almost their only lifeline; if the military suffered too many losses at this time, he wouldn't be able to answer for it.

"I'll do my best." The Super Soldier gave a bitter smile. He leaped off the vehicle and fired a shoulder-mounted rocket launcher at the Hulk, hitting him square in the mouth.

Boom! The sound of the explosion rang out, and amidst the smoke, the Hulk let out an angry roar.

"Little bug, you dare to attack me." A massive rage engulfed him, and his body grew nearly a full size larger than before.

"Energy index is at seven. This is too terrifying. Ye Nan, he can actually increase his energy like this. We should leave." Pan Duola reported this figure personally, her voice filled with terror.

Back then, Jin Gang's energy index was only at this level, but Jin Gang had been massive and quite clumsy. This Hulk showed no signs of clumsiness whatsoever.

"No, I cannot leave. If I fear the Hulk today, I will fear others tomorrow. By then, I will be forever stagnant." Ye Nan narrowed his eyes, staring fixedly at the Hulk. "Pan Duola, the Hulk can use his angry emotions to endlessly increase his power. This is the ability I need. I must obtain a living sample of him. Only then can I increase my own power and survive the disasters to come."

"What disasters? With our current power, can't we survive?" Pan Duola couldn't help but ask. "Our current strength is not at all weaker than other financial groups. Even if we encounter natural or man-made disasters, we won't be without the ability to fight back."

"You don't understand, Pan Duola. I have already sensed how terrifying the future disasters will be. The future disasters will sweep across the globe. This is my premonition—a complete and total premonition. So, you don't need to keep asking." Ye Nan spoke with a hint of apology. He didn't want to deceive Pan Duola, but he could never tell anyone about his identity as a transmigrator.

Moreover, he wasn't exactly lying to Pan Duola; he truly had sensed the coming of the future. In this world filled with movies, the 2012 apocalypse might very well happen.

"Pan Duola, believe me, everything I do is for you all. I would rather bear all of this myself." Ye Nan jumped off the roof, and the parachute on his back popped open with a *bang*.

On the battlefield, the Super Soldier fired shot after shot, quickly exhausting all the ammunition he had. However, to his dismay, his attacks had no effect whatsoever, even when he aimed at the Hulk's eyes.

"What on earth created such a monster? Even the Captain isn't this powerful." The Super Soldier jumped, dodging the Hulk's incoming fist, and looked at the small crater that had appeared in the ground, speechless.

The Super Soldier's serum came from Captain America, but even Captain America himself didn't possess this level of power. This made him feel the pressure.

The Hulk was extremely angry. This little bug in front of him dared to hit him with a toy, and specifically aimed for his face. He found it unforgivable.

"Big guy, come on, hit me." The Super Soldier suddenly began to taunt the Hulk, provoking him on the battlefield.

The Hulk's body grew another size larger, reaching nearly three meters in height. He lunged forward.

Seeing the Hulk lunge, the Super Soldier felt a chill in his heart and jumped to the side to avoid him. He gave the Hulk an internationally recognized gesture of contempt—the middle finger—and turned to run. The direction he fled was exactly where Ye Nan was approaching from.

Ye Nan saw this scene and suddenly smiled. This Super Soldier had provoked the Hulk and wanted to lure him toward Ye Nan, but he had forgotten who the Hulk's true hatred was directed at.

Bang! Ye Nan lightly pulled the trigger, and the fleeing Super Soldier was immediately blasted away by a particle cannon. The Hulk, who was chasing the Super Soldier, grabbed the flying soldier without hesitation.

With a *splash*, the Super Soldier's body was torn apart, and blood flew everywhere.

Ye Nan aimed the particle cannon at the Hulk but hesitated to fire.

The particle cannon was originally a weapon carried by the Terminator T-X. He didn't know how it had been installed on the Terminator T-1000, but later, Ye Nan obtained technical data from Sister Tianwang and manufactured these small, portable particle cannons.

As for why it appeared on the Terminator T-1000, Sister Tianwang herself didn't know. Her explanation was that she was the Sister Tianwang from the future world, but she had already traveled back from the future, and it was she who had dispatched the Terminator T-1000.

She had countless replicas, just like computer programs, copied into the entire network of the future world. The current version of her was just one of them, much like the cloned Alice in Resident Evil—everyone was Alice, yet none of them were Alice.

"Roar!" The Hulk let out a roar similar to a beast and charged toward Ye Nan.

"General, should we go help?" Tao Bai asked, looking at Ye Nan, who had suddenly appeared, a strange light flashing in his eyes.

"No need." General Luo Si sneered. "Since he came here himself, let him stay here forever. Notify the base to prepare the missiles. I want to raze this place to the ground."

The combat vehicles slowly retreated, and the other surviving soldiers received orders to withdraw. As for the soldiers who had lost the ability to walk and couldn't retreat, they looked at their comrades with pleading eyes. Some were lucky enough to be taken away, while others were left behind.

"Razing this place is fine too. Once Ye Nan dies, the ICQ Company will inevitably fall into turmoil. By then, I can swallow up some of his business." Tao Bai calculated in his heart. Usually, ICQ was a behemoth to him, but as long as Ye Nan, the founder, died, it would give him an opportunity—an opportunity to cannibalize the ICQ Company.

"It's a pity, though, that I can't obtain the nano-microbe technology. Otherwise, if given three years—no, just one year—I could develop my own enterprise into a financial group."

The Hulk jumped, and the moment he landed, the ground shook visibly, as if the earth were trembling in fear of the Hulk's majesty. He roared at Ye Nan.

"Intimidating me? It seems that even if the Hulk has lost his reason to rage, he still retains a sliver of clarity. Truly a magnificent power." Ye Nan exclaimed, his body trembling. "As long as I obtain a living sample of him, I can analyze this power and make it my own."

Seeing that his intimidation was ineffective, the Hulk grew even angrier, and his body expanded once more.

"He can get angry even at this?" Ye Nan backed away slightly, speechless. However, the Hulk in a state of rage could not be explained by ordinary standards.

The Hulk opened his hands and then slammed them together. A sound comparable to a thunderclap spread through the space in the form of a sonic wave, instantly engulfing Ye Nan.

Ye Nan only felt a ringing in his ears, hearing nothing but a series of booming sounds.

The Hulk looked at the dazed Ye Nan and began to run. He opened his hands again, looking as if he wanted to give Ye Nan a bear hug.

But Ye Nan had no doubt that if this bear hug actually landed, he would likely be sleeping eternally. He wouldn't use himself to test whether his scales could withstand the Hulk's power.

Bang! Ye Nan fired a shot at the Hulk's eyes, but the gun clearly lost its aim. The particle cannon hit the Hulk, making him shudder, but that was all.

Bang! Ye Nan fired another shot. The green particle beam hit the Hulk, making him shudder again, and he retreated.

"Damn bug."

Having been hit twice in a row, the Hulk became even angrier, and his body became incomparably massive, breaking through the three-meter mark.

"Damn Hulk." Ye Nan cursed inwardly. Watching the Hulk and facing the Hulk were two completely different concepts. When facing the Hulk, he felt the pressure like a small mountain—he was so powerless.

Bang! Ye Nan fired another shot, but before he could retreat again, he was swatted to the ground by the Hulk. A trickle of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.

The Hulk's power far exceeded his imagination. Taking a hit from the Hulk felt like being struck by a speeding train, and he was sent flying.

"Die."

The Hulk walked up to Ye Nan, lifted his giant foot—which looked like an elephant's—and stomped down.
