Chapter 381: Avengers 1.5: Invasion (Part 3)

A planet slowly rotates in the boundless, dark universe. The light of the star soon illuminates half of its surface, while the other half falls into an even deeper night.

This is a planet where water resources are not so abundant, but on this night, cold rain began to fall. The rare water cycle phenomenon should have attracted countless residents to come out and watch, but the entire street was empty, without a single shadow.

Only buildings towering into the clouds flickered with cold mechanical lights. When the light swept across a certain part of the street, one could see ruins burned to a charred black. Such ruins, large and small, almost covered the entire city. And suddenly, a series of harsh laughter sounded again over the city.

Hearing this sound, the lights in almost all the buildings went out. In an instant, this developed city of the future seemed to have become a dead city.

And at this time, the screen on the tallest building in the city center suddenly lit up. First, a pair of hands grabbed the lens, and a figure wearing a clown mask appeared on the screen. He said:

"Evening news broadcast! Is anyone listening? This is already Mr. Joker's fifth day here. I like it here very much!"

"I especially like your unique hairstyles. I really want to get one for myself, but you all hide from me, which makes me very sad..."

His voice suddenly became a somewhat weak breathy sound. He said: "... Do you know? I've already started to get a bit bored. You are really boring, only knowing how to shake your heads full of tentacles, making a fierce expression, and then crying and screaming..."

"My god, you monsters, shouldn't the one crying be me? I was tricked to this distant planet, staying among a group of terrifying man-eating monsters. What did I do? Oh... I made a seafood rice? Using you as ingredients, so what?"

Suddenly, he said somewhat hysterically: "Do you think I'm boring? Why are you so serious?!"

As he spoke, one of his hands left the screen, and then he retreated a few steps, revealing the scene behind the screen. A hot, steaming oil pan was bubbling. A figure with a monster's head was hung above the oil pan. His two longest tentacles had already fallen into the oil pan and were currently screaming and struggling desperately.

"Who is your boss? Is it a giant octopus? Would he taste better? Or is it that everyone in your entire race is as stupid as him, with brains emitting a smell of expired mold..."

"That's it then. This boring game is about to end."

For some reason, all the monsters who heard this sentence breathed a sigh of relief, giving birth to a feeling of rejoicing at having survived a disaster.

As he spoke, the figure slowly lowered the rope made of gray mist. And just at this moment, a black figure wearing armor with two pointed ears on his head broke through the window and landed in the room. He said: "Joker! Stop! End your crazy behavior!"

The person called Joker suddenly froze for a moment, and then, he began to laugh crazily, laughing until he was out of breath. After a long while, he straightened his waist and said: "Look, who is this? A weirdo dressed as a bat..."

"Oh, what did I just say? The game is about to end?"

"No! No no no!" He suddenly raised his tone and said: "Mr. Bat's appearance gave the entire opening ceremony a wonderful ending!"

"And next... the main feature is about to begin!"

"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!"

Outside the window, on the roof of another building, Steve said somewhat hesitantly: "Although I don't know what the two of them are doing, I always feel like we shouldn't disturb them."

Stark hugged his arms. He tilted his head and said: "It looks like someone is having a great time and doesn't need us to save them. Let's do some real work, check what's going on here..."

Just as he said this, a "boom" explosion sound came. Stark controlled his armor to retreat rapidly, and Steve was directly blown away. After the two of them landed, they saw that the original building directly collapsed. Stark blocked his front with his arm and said: "Damn it, are they crazy?!"

"How could they..." Steve just said this when he suddenly choked and said: "Wait, this isn't Earth, and those monsters aren't humans... Alright, then I have nothing to say."

Captain America is indeed very compassionate and also very just, but that is only aimed at humans. If one has to extend it a bit, it is aimed at all creatures that look similar to humans. But clearly, these monsters with an average of 16 tentacles on each head are not included.

And the explosion attack just encountered was merely a beginning to their thrilling alien journey this time.

Soon, countless terrorist attacks that could destroy the entire city happened one after another. Every screen in the city echoed with that terrifying, crazy laughter. The night grew longer and longer, the rain grew colder and colder, and both of them felt a kind of inescapable chaos enveloping this city.

It's not that Cat Getan has Joker and Batman, but that the place where Joker and Batman are is Cat Getan.

When Joker arrives first, and Batman arrives later, then madness, chaos, and disorder will follow.

Following closely behind them was the terrifying city that had awakened the soul of madness. More lunatics began to emerge, and some people with monster heads also seemed to have been infected by something, beginning to haunt the dark, rainy night, bringing more madness and sin to this city.

Iron Man, who was almost attacked by a tentacle again, "whooshed" and pulled up, then flew to mid-air. He shook his head and said: "Crazy, all crazy. Those symbiotes said this group of monsters was hard to deal with, but I didn't expect them to be this crazy!"

Xiaoshuting

On the other side, the symbiotes thrillingly avoided the aftermath of the explosion and jumped onto the roof of a building. Blue Spirit looked at the monsters holding lighting tools on the street like walking corpses, searching for every living thing and killing them. He said in a somewhat trembling tone: "This group of Brood has evolved again! They have become more evil and crazy, and the universe is about to welcome another catastrophe..."

"This isn't right." Thunder said in a deep voice: "The Brood are not that group of chaotic insect swarms that have no consciousness and only know how to devour. They are a high-level civilization with wisdom, otherwise, they wouldn't have built such a developed city. How could it seem like overnight they..."

"Some changes we don't know about have happened in this city." Green Thorn shook his head and said: "The atmosphere here is too weird. I have never seen such a scene in any city."

"And the strangest thing is, why does it rain every day here? Where did this planet get so many water resources?"

Clearly, everyone discovered that a terrifying atmosphere enveloped this city, just like the entire planet was inevitably falling into the dark side of the universe.

Those who felt this terrifying atmosphere, besides the Avengers squad that came here, also included the indigenous people here.

In a high-rise building somewhere in the city center, a monster head wearing a uniform hammered the operation panel fiercely. He said: "Where is our fleet? Where did they go? Why don't they protect their own planet?!!"

"Governor, we don't have protocol authorization to fire on the surface!" Another monster head wearing an assistant's uniform opened his mouth and said: "We can't use surface weapons for someone causing trouble on the ground. That would destroy all the facilities on the planet. The capital planet won't agree!"

"But he caused such a big mess. What is going on? Who brought him here?!!!" The governor said angrily.

"According to the information sent back by the teleportation device, it should be parasitic backup material brought back by the numbered agent stationed on Earth. Originally, it should have been the lowest-level material. Once stepping into the Brood planet territory, it should have been sealed immediately..."

"Then why wasn't he sealed?!!!"

The assistant shook his head and said: "The information shows that the agent stationed on Earth should have already sacrificed himself."

The governor hammered the table fiercely again. He said: "Humans... humans... shouldn't that be the weakest race in the universe? Since when can the great Brood not even beat humans???"

The assistant was also very puzzled. He said: "According to the scanning device we set up on the portal, that lunatic wearing a mask should just be a standard ordinary human."

"But in just 5 days, he played a dozen games and caused I don't know how many explosion cases! But no one can catch him. Our guard team and security personnel were all wiped out by him!!!"

The governor was trembling with anger. He pointed to the door and said: "Now! Immediately! Go and assemble the fleet right away!! I want to fire on the surface!!!"

The assistant could only salute helplessly, and then turned to go out. The moment the door opened, what appeared was a fist covered in metal armor.

With a "bang," that monster head screamed and flew backward. Iron Man stepped over his body, walked in, looked at the governor, and said: "You are the person in charge here?"

"Who are you? Wait! You are human?? How did you get here?"

"Damn it, you must be in cahoots with that lunatic. You are invading the Brood. Are humans going to declare war on us?!!"

"Language parsing... breaking... decryption complete, translation system download status 70%, has reached the minimum standard for communication requirements, program started..." After Jarvis's voice came, Stark opened his mouth and said: "It was you who captured our people. You wanted to harm our clansmen, that's why we came here."

"Harm your clansmen???" That governor raised his tone and said loudly. His tone was filled with thick, unbelievable, and stifled feelings. He said: "The moment that lunatic arrived, he found our broadcast communication device, and then said he wanted to play a game with us!"

"He laughed crazily, snatched away the administrative personnel here, pulled their heads out of their bodies alive, and then threw them into the furnace. He also kidnapped a group of nobles, wanting to make them perform stage plays, and even cut off the tentacles on their heads as tickets!!"

"You evil race!!" The governor accused loudly: "You lunatics! Perverts!! I will reveal your crimes to the universe!! You will definitely face judgment!!!"

"I..." Iron Man choked, feeling that what Shiler did seemed a bit excessive.

But looking at that monster's terrifying face, and thinking that they were bugs parasitizing human bodies, Stark suddenly felt that his accusation sounded as pleasant as a compliment.

He simply didn't care anymore and said directly: "That's right, this is us, this is humanity. Buddy, you messed with the wrong person!"

"But you can't defeat the great Brood! Our fleet is currently near the star. I have already lifted the safety protocol. They are about to fire on the surface!! You are all going to die here!"

As he spoke, the governor hammered the button behind him fiercely. The star map on the screen behind him lit up. He saw several octopus-type fleets that looked very much like the heads of this group of monsters advancing toward the planet.

"Fleet?" Stark's mocking voice came from inside the mask. He said: "You think only you know how to press buttons?"

As he spoke, he opened his arm armor and then pressed the button on it. Immediately after, Jarvis's voice sounded: "Fleet command system accessed, command received, stealth field lifted, anti-gravity device started, operation panel ready..."

Stark reached out and pointed to the screen behind the governor. The governor saw his action and hurriedly turned his head.

Then, he saw several huge warships, several times larger than their spaceships, slowly sailing into the picture.

Under the mask, in front of Stark's eyes, a virtual command panel appeared. In the governor's ears, his voice sounded like a demon:

"Now, I also want to play a game with you..."
