And just then—
"I say, is it really okay to openly discuss whether or not to destroy our Planet in front of us, the humans of Blue Star?" Gwen said, her tone carrying a hint of suppressed anger.
These guys... their goal was actually to destroy Blue Star!
Oh my God ~!
Gwen had thought they might have other motives before.
But she never expected their goal to be so terrifying!
"No, we've already decided to give up!" Ajak explained.
"What about them?" Gwen pointed at the other Eternal members, "Are they, like you, decided to give up?"
"And how do we know you've truly given up? Or are you just pretending?" Natasha said slowly, her eyes filled with a dangerous look.
For Natasha, who was once an elite Agent, trust was truly a luxury.
Although she had changed now.
But to ask her to trust a group of people who once tried to destroy the World?
She really couldn't do it!
In fact;
Not only Natasha didn't believe it, but the other Avengers also didn't believe Ajak's words.
And even if Ajak was serious.
But what about the others?
If even one of them didn't intend to give up, then the consequences...
They would be unimaginable!
"They are of course also with me—" Ajak was about to say they were like her, but before she could finish, she was interrupted by Ikaris.
"You wish!" he roared furiously.
At the same time, he instantly shot into the sky, planning to escape.
Yes!
Ikaris was running away.
Because he couldn't abandon his mission, and he also didn't believe that these Avengers would believe what Ajak said.
Even if they did believe, they would definitely monitor them constantly.
Even restrict their freedom!
If that were the case, even if Ikaris pretended for a while, he would eventually be exposed.
Since that was the case;
He might as well just run away!
Boom!
A sonic boom came from the sky.
Followed by a white streak flying into the distance.
At this moment, Ikaris had pushed his speed to the limit.
Approaching twenty times the speed of sound, making everything around him a blur!
And just then—
"Why are you in such a hurry to leave?"
A hand suddenly appeared and pressed onto Ikaris's shoulder.
Then a voice sounded in his ear.
Ikaris was shocked!
But before he could react, a terrifying force instantly slammed him hard onto the ground!
Rumble—
Somewhere on the outskirts of New York.
Ikaris's figure fell to the earth, instantly creating a deep pit.
"Cough, cough~!"
He coughed, his face pale, as he climbed out of the deep pit.
As soon as he climbed out, a pair of legs appeared before him.
Ikaris looked up and saw a handsome young man standing in front of him, smiling as he looked at him.
"You're quite sturdy, aren't you?"
Rhodey said with a smile.
"Die!"
His response was Ikaris's Heat Vision attack!
Golden Heat Vision blasted Rhodey.
It was warm and very comfortable.
An endless stream of energy was absorbed by Rhodey.
Meanwhile, Ikaris roared, continuously increasing the power of his Heat Vision.
But no matter how much he increased its power, the attack on Rhodey had no effect; not only did it not injure him or make him retreat, but even his clothes remained completely intact!
At this moment;
Several figures landed nearby one after another.
It was the Avengers who had rushed over, as well as other Eternal members.
As soon as they arrived, they saw Ikaris standing in front of a deep pit, attacking Rhodey.
The Avengers all knew Rhodey, and seeing this, they felt a faint sympathy for Ikaris.
After all;
They had personally experienced Rhodey's strength.
His abnormal level was even above Mandarin's!
After all, if Mandarin fought them, even though they couldn't defeat him, Mandarin wouldn't be able to finish them off in a short while.
But Rhodey was different;
This guy could easily crush all of them even if he was just playing around.
If he got a little serious, he would directly unleash an attack equivalent to a nuclear explosion of hundreds of millions of tons!
This kind of monster was truly the first they had ever seen.
Let alone Mandarin.
Even if several Mandarin were tied together, they wouldn't be Rhodey's opponent!
"Alright, this guy can't escape now."
Tony said with a smile.
Since Rhodey had made his move, the matter was basically settled.
No more surprises would happen!
Others who knew Rhodey and his strength also nodded in agreement.
However, the Eternal members didn't know Rhodey at all.
But seeing Rhodey directly withstand Ikaris's Heat Vision, and remain completely unharmed, they couldn't help but be shocked by this person's strength.
This was no longer a question of whether his defense was strong or not.
No matter how solid the defense, it still had to withstand the force; even if it couldn't be broken, it shouldn't remain completely motionless, right?
Moreover;
Ikaris had used such high-power Heat Vision.
Yet, this person didn't even shift his feet.
There wasn't even a single mark on the ground!
This was too bizarre.
It made them involuntarily look at Spider-Woman, who had also just arrived at the scene.
Such an ability… it's really similar!
"Impossible! How is this possible!!!"
Ikaris looked at the motionless Rhodey, letting out a near-hysterical roar.
The next second—
Boom!
A loud bang.
The ground rolled like waves, stirring up ripple after ripple.
It was as if an earth dragon had turned over, and a layer of earth spanning nearly a kilometer was pulverized.
Rhodey retracted his fist.
He looked at Ikaris, who was sprawled on the ground in front of him, like a dead dog.
If his chest weren't still faintly rising and falling,
Rhodey would have thought he had been killed by his punch.
However;
Even if he wasn't dead, he had lost half his life!
"As expected of the Marvel version of Superman, he's tough!"
Rhodey praised.
