Pedestrians who were still stuck on the edge of New York's outer boroughs, seeing the sky that seemed to be burning and the earth that was thundering in the city center behind them, could not help but flee out of the city in fear. They were about to form a torrent of people that even the police could not maintain order.
"Buzz—"
At this moment, a black fighter plane marked with the SHIELD logo flew from hundreds of meters in the air, against the direction of the crowd's evacuation, lonely and determinedly towards the city center where the war had already begun.
"Look!"
Someone in the crowd shouted, and then countless people looked up and saw countless black spots like bees appearing in the sky outside the city. The black spots kept getting bigger, and when they got closer, they could be seen clearly that they were helicopters and fighter planes, flying towards the changing battle situation without hesitation.
This just proves what Director Fury said to Caesar earlier: "I will try my best, no matter the cost!"
In the city center.
Colonel Rhodes led the elite troops in ambush and indeed caught the alien army off guard. However, when the alien army reacted and concentrated their firepower to fight, the gap in technological weapons between the two sides was vividly reflected.
The standard weapons of the alien mechanical army are all powered by laser beams, which are powerful enough to easily penetrate the armored tanks known as the "Land Overlord" on Earth.
In addition, the mechanical invaders were so crazy that they were not mortal. Their numbers were staggering, and their rampant attacks like locusts severely suppressed the elite troops of the United States.
"Ahh! Come again, alien bastard!"
The battlefield leader, Colonel Rhodes, also known as War Machine, started the engine and hovered in the air in the street. He was surrounded by several small shuttles and could only move by flying continuously, avoiding the laser beams while constantly switching between the bombardment hand cannons in his left and right hands.
But there were too many alien invaders, and they surrounded him densely, and the encirclement was gradually narrowed amid fierce firefight.
The pressure from the enemy almost made Rhode breathless. Wearing the war machine armor, he looked around and saw the alien shuttles approaching. He suddenly activated a device on his wrists and spun his hands abruptly, "I'll give you a taste of this!"
The small shuttles and alien invaders rushed towards the war machine, and almost at the moment of submerging it, two red burning lasers burst out from it. As the laser beams circled left and right, the alien invaders within a radius of ten meters, including the small shuttles, were cut into several pieces and scattered to the ground!
Even Rhodes himself did not expect that the disposable emergency weapon Tony configured for him a few years ago would be so powerful.
He was suspended in the air in a daze, looking at the enemies around him that had been wiped out, and then looked at his wrist, where the laser device had been scrapped. He couldn't help but blurt out, "Tony, I love you!"
Soon, Rhodes was no longer happy.
A shadow like a dark cloud enveloped him. War Machine looked up, his pupils suddenly shrinking in surprise.
A large Quinstyle alien warship was approaching this side. The alien warship was as big as a normal aircraft carrier and shaped like a centipede. In the sunlight, the cold light of steel was reflected. It floated in the sky, pressing down on the war machine like a small mountain, and countless gun barrels adjusted their angles to aim.
“Oh my god!”
The gap in weapons was too great, and the war machine didn't even think about fighting back, and turned around and sped away. The Quinjets chased after it, rampaging through the streets, and the skyscrapers collapsed with a slight hit from it.
The War Machine was in front, and the Quin-style battleship was behind, the distance between the two kept shrinking. At this critical moment, a missile, dragging a tail flame, came from the side and above, and directly hit the head of the Quin-style battleship, erupting with billowing smoke and air waves.
"What is this?" The war machine suddenly stopped in the air and looked in the direction where the missile came from. It saw a black fighter plane slowly landing. When it was still ten meters above the ground, the rear cabin of the fighter plane had already opened, and three figures jumped out of it lightly.
"What is the current situation?" asked a tall and strong blond young man holding a round shield and with a five-star on the chest of his hip-wrapped uniform.
"It's not too late for you, is it?" said the black man who stretched out a pair of steel wings, also propelled by the engine, and floated in the air with two pistols in his hands.
The third black-haired young man did not speak, but indifferently took out an arrow and put it on the bowstring of the bow in his left hand.
Seeing the familiar people, War Machine almost burst into tears, "Captain, you're finally here!"
"Since the war has begun, let's go!"
Steve shouted, his eyes full of determination.
"Yes!" everyone responded in unison.
At this moment, someone is still on his way to the battlefield.
"The Battle of New York. It was truly spectacular. Seeing it in the movies is far inferior to experiencing it in person..."
At the border of the central area of New York, Caesar was flying in the air at a low speed. With his superhuman vision, he could clearly see the fierce urban battlefield more than ten kilometers away. He could also see flashes of lightning. Apparently, even Thor, the God of Thunder, had officially joined the battle.
"To catch a thief, we must first catch the leader. Do you want to find Loki now and beat him up?"
Caesar touched his chin and was thinking about it when he suddenly sensed the fluctuation of some strange energy from the street not far away.
"This feeling is..." Caesar opened his eyes wide in surprise.
Rooftop of house A177, Brick Street.
This place is shrouded in a fog-like illusion, and there is also a layer of magical protection shield that blocks the alien mechanical soldiers who want to invade.
A bald woman in a yellow robe with a calm face stood on the roof with her hands behind her back. A circle of magic seals glowed on her left wrist. As she kept waving her left hand, the shells bombarding the house's protective shield were bounced off in advance.
'tread!'
Light footsteps sounded behind her. The bald woman turned around and saw a blond child about five years old, smiling at her. "Long time no see, Master Ancient One."
Gu Yi was not surprised at all. With a hint of helplessness in his eyes, he said softly:
"Yeah, long time no see, General Kyle."
Chapter 448: Variables from the Future
"General Kyle... I haven't heard this title for a long time. It's been 70 or 80 years since the end of World War II."
Caesar sighed with emotion, his body ignoring gravity and floating up from the ground. His sapphire-like eyes looked at Gu Yi and he asked in surprise: "How did you recognize me so quickly?"
Gu Yi put his hands behind his back and explained directly and clearly, "Every living thing has a unique soul since its birth, and we, the guardian mages, have a pair of eyes that can see souls clearly."
"So that's how it is."
Caesar nodded in approval. This superhuman clone of his own was created through the splitting of the soul, so he naturally believed in the mysterious theory of the soul.
But believing is believing, but wanting to touch the soul realm is the difference between heaven and earth.
"I wonder what level of ability cards this old woman has after practicing magic for hundreds of years... I really want to take a good look!"
Caesar looked at Master Ancient One, who was standing leisurely in front of him, less than three meters away, and he was itching to borrow the card drawing system from the main body.
The thought of extracting the ability card from Ancient Mage has been lingering in my mind for decades!
Unfortunately, when the original was there, Ancient One was nowhere to be found. When the original was not there, the clone bumped into him by accident.
When Caesar thought of this, he drooped his ears in dejection, like a child who had lost his candy.
Master Ancient One didn't think that Caesar was still planning on her. She turned her back to Caesar, stood by the railing with her hands behind her back, and calmly looked at the extremely chaotic and tragic New York battlefield outside the house protection net.
Master Ancient One said in a calm tone, "General Kyle. Decades ago, when I first saw you in New York, I knew that you were a unique evil star in the world, a person who could influence and subvert the world and even the universe by himself."
"You're going too far. How can anyone say that someone is an unlucky star?"
Caesar spread his hands helplessly, floated forward, and leaned against the Ancient One, also looking at the chaotic battlefield outside, "Other alien forces have come to bully us. To put it bluntly, they are riding on your head and shitting on you. We can't just wait for them to slaughter our relatives and ravage our world, and then find ways to take revenge on us!"
