Chapter 178 Fierce Battle

In the aftermath of the nuclear bomb explosion, the American army in another direction was ready to launch an attack on this invincible force of death.

The American army was composed of elite infantry, armored forces and air support forces. They were arranged in neat formations and had high morale.

The commander stood at the front line, holding a telescope, his eyes sharp as a torch, staring at the direction of the undead army in the distance.

As an experienced commander, he had fought many battles with living people, but this was his first time with dead people.

But that’s okay, there’s a first time for everything.

Following the commander's order, the American army began to slowly advance, with tanks and armored vehicles roaring and tracks leaving deep marks on the ground.

The infantrymen are armed with advanced weapons and remain on high alert, ready to respond to the surprise attacks of the undead at any time.

Air support forces were hovering in the air, ready to bomb the undead army at any time.

Although the Undead Army suffered heavy damage from the nuclear bomb, their numbers were still huge. Under the command of the Skeleton Wizard, the surviving Undead Warriors and Wizards quickly adjusted their formations and prepared to meet the attack of the American Army.

The air was filled with tension and oppression, as if a life-and-death battle was about to break out.

As the distance between the two sides shortened, the battle officially began. The American infantry quickly opened fire, and dense bullets and shells rained down on the undead army.

However, these undead did not seem to be afraid of death. They still moved forward bravely, trying to break through the American army's defense lines.

The armored forces used their own advantages to crush and attack the undead army. The tanks' gunfire and the armored vehicles' machine guns continuously sprayed deadly flames, knocking groups of undead warriors to the ground. However, the number of undead armies was too large, and they seemed endless, constantly pouring in from all directions.

Air support also played a huge role, with fighters and bombers roaring through the sky, dropping bombs and missiles one after another.

These explosions caused great chaos and panic among the Undead armies, and many Undead warriors and wizards were blown to pieces in the blasts.

However, despite the strong fighting power displayed by the American army, the undead army still resisted tenaciously.

Their numbers never seem to decrease, and more and more undead warriors and wizards begin to display more powerful strength and skills.

This put the American army into a difficult battle and casualties continued to rise.

As the battle progressed, the American army gradually felt unprecedented pressure. Some powerful undead wizards in the undead army began to cast strange magic. The sky was covered with dark clouds, thunder and lightning, as if the entire battlefield was shrouded by an evil force.

These wizards can not only control undead warriors, but also summon even more terrifying undead creatures, such as huge skeleton beasts and ghost knights wrapped in flames.

These creatures were extremely powerful and fast, posing a great threat to American infantry and armored forces.

Faced with such a powerful enemy, the American commander quickly adjusted his tactics and ordered the air support to intensify the bombing of the Undead Wizards in an attempt to interrupt their spellcasting.

At the same time, he sent out an elite special forces unit, equipped with anti-magic equipment, to try to sneak into the undead army and destroy these wizards at close range.

The operation of the special forces was extremely difficult. Not only did they have to face the siege of the undead warriors, but they also had to be on guard against the attacks of strange magic.

But with their excellent combat skills and firm will, they finally succeeded in approaching the necromancer and launched a deadly attack.

Under the attack of the special forces, the spells cast by the necromancers were interrupted, and some wizards were even killed on the spot. This caused the undead army to lose command and fall into a brief chaos. The American army seized this opportunity and quickly launched a counterattack.

The infantrymen used the advanced weapons in their hands to suppress the undead warriors with fierce firepower.

The armored units took the opportunity to charge forward, crushing groups of undead warriors into powder.

Not to be outdone, the air support force continued to bombard the undead army, and the entire battlefield seemed to be engulfed in flames and smoke.

However, the tenacity of the undead army is beyond imagination.

Despite the heavy losses, they still did not give up resistance. Some undead warriors even began to self-destruct, trying to perish together with the American army.

This crazy move caused heavy losses to the American army and dealt a severe blow to morale.

While the army was dispersing like snowflakes, the SHIELD super-power team led by Tony was not idle either. They were sneaking quickly to the south.

"We must be fast and accurate. That pyramid is the core of the undead army." Tony whispered in front of the team. His voice was clearly transmitted to every team member through the built-in communication system. "Once we successfully blow it up, we can weaken or even completely eliminate this evil force."

Agent Hill nodded in agreement, and her fingers lightly slid across the communicator on her wrist to confirm the situation of rear support.

"But how are we supposed to sneak to the Black Pyramid? You know, there's a god there. We can't kill him with just a few of us, right?"

Rumlow continued with a sad face: "Yes, he is a god. With our limited strength, we are probably not even as powerful as ants in his eyes. If we are discovered, we may not even have a chance to escape."

Tony's brows were furrowed, but his eyes were firm, and he had obviously made up his mind. "We can't fight head-on, we can only outsmart him. According to intelligence, although the god is powerful, he is currently busy controlling the army of the undead. The nuclear bomb and our army's attack have attracted a lot of attention from the god.

Therefore, the direct threat He poses to us is not that great. The key is that we must find the time and method to approach the pyramid."

Tony took a deep breath and continued, "The army is now attracting the god's attention, but that alone is not enough. Even though it has caused huge casualties to the undead army, the god doesn't seem to have any intention of coming out."

"We need to create a bigger chaos, a chaos that will force the god to take action himself." Tony's eyes flashed with determination. "Only in this way can we have a chance to take advantage of the situation." Agent Hill frowned slightly. She understood Tony's intention, but she couldn't help feeling a little worried.

"What are you going to do? You know, if we fail, we might all die."

Tony smiled slightly, a sly glint in his eyes.

"I have a plan, but I need your cooperation. I have a weapon that looks powerful and can be used near the pyramids. I don't have to worry about this god not coming out to see what's going on."

Rumlow had a puzzled expression on his face when he heard this.

"You mean to say that we are going to use a fake weapon to deceive that god?"

"That's right." Tony nodded, "And this fake weapon needs to have a certain self-destruct capability. After attracting the attention of the gods, it can explode on its own and produce a strong visual effect.

This way, the gods will consider this a real threat and take action themselves."

Agent Hill and Rumlow looked at each other. Although they still had doubts in their hearts, they both understood that this was the only feasible solution at the moment.

So Tony began to elaborate on his plan. He first introduced a special device called "Phantom Bomb", which is the latest technological achievement developed by SHIELD. It looks like a huge missile, but it is actually loaded with high concentrations of flash powder and smoke bombs, as well as a sophisticated timed self-destruct device.

"When the 'phantom bomb' is dropped near the pyramid, it will immediately release dazzling light and thick smoke to simulate the effect of a real explosion." Tony explained, "and the self-destruct device will be triggered after a certain period of time, ensuring that the entire illusion looks both realistic and short-lived, enough to attract the attention of the god, but without causing any real harm."

After hearing this, Agent Hill's eyes flashed with approval.

"This plan sounds bold and ingenious, but the key lies in how we can ensure that we can quickly evacuate to a safe area after dropping the 'phantom bomb' to avoid being discovered by the gods about our true intentions."

Tony nodded, indicating that he had considered this. "I will arrange for air support forces to provide high-altitude cover immediately after the drop. At the same time, our team will use the cloaking device and rapid movement capabilities to sneak into the pyramid from another direction at the moment the gods are attracted."

"A cloaking device?" Rumlow asked in surprise. "When did we get such equipment?"

"This is the inspiration we recently drew from the God of All Machines. Although the quantity is limited, it is enough to support our action this time." Tony said confidently, "As long as we can enter the pyramid before the gods notice and successfully activate the bomb, then victory in this battle is just around the corner."

After careful preparation, the SHIELD superpower team quietly approached the core of the undead army with the "phantom bomb" - the black pyramid. As the distance continued to shorten, they could even feel the evil breath emanating from the pyramid, which was creepy.

Tony took a deep breath and issued a final order to the team members: "Prepare for action. Remember, our goal is only to attract the attention of the gods and then evacuate quickly."

The team members nodded to show that they understood. According to the plan, they installed the "phantom bomb" in a hidden location near the pyramid and activated the timing device.

Then they quickly evacuated to the designated location, ready to wait for the explosion to occur.

As the timer of the "phantom bomb" was activated, the entire battlefield seemed to be paused. All eyes, whether from the American army or the army of the undead, were focused on the hidden location near the black pyramid.

The countdown ended and the bomb exploded. Dazzling light instantly streaked across the sky, and thick smoke rose into the sky like a giant dragon, shrouding the pyramid in chaos. Although the shock wave generated by the explosion was just a bluff, the visual effect was enough to shock people.

However, unexpectedly, the God of Death did not pay any attention to it. He still sat steadily on the top of the pyramid, closing his eyes and concentrating, as if he was drawing endless power from this land. The light and smoke of the explosion seemed to be just a trivial disturbance to him.

Tony witnessed all this through the telescope, and a chill rose in his heart. He originally thought that this plan was enough for the God of Death to take action himself, but now it seems that His power and determination far exceeded their imagination.

"It seems that we have underestimated the power of this god." Agent Hill's voice sounded in the communicator, with a hint of helplessness and worry in her tone.

"Yes, but we can't give up." Tony said firmly, "Since this plan has failed, we must come up with another way to approach the pyramid and destroy it."

The team members looked at each other, confusion and anxiety written all over their faces.

Just as the team members were looking at each other, confusion and anxiety written all over their faces, the Undead army stationed near the pyramid seemed to smell the scent of invaders and quickly launched an attack.

These undead warriors, wearing broken armor and holding decayed weapons, but their eyes burned with the fire of undying resentment. They came from all directions, like puppets controlled by darkness, and every step they took was a rhythm of death.

"Prepare for battle!" Tony gave the order quickly. His voice was calm and firm, trying to stabilize the team in the panic.

The team members quickly entered combat status, and each of them used their superpowers to try to resist the attack of the undead army.

However, the number of these undead warriors was too large. They seemed endless, coming in wave after wave, making the team members overwhelmed.

Agent Hill uses her combat skills and keen perception to move among the Undead warriors, trying to find a breakthrough.

The weapon in her hand flashed with cold light, and every swing was accompanied by the wailing and fall of the undead warriors.

Rumlow unleashed his superpowers, and an invisible shield surrounded his body, repelling the undead warriors who tried to approach him one by one.

However, even so, he could not withstand the endless attacks of the Undead Warriors, and the light on the shield began to dim.

The other team members also used their own special skills. Some used their speed advantage to quickly shuttle across the battlefield, while others released powerful energy waves to try to repel the undead warriors. However, these efforts seemed to be in vain, and the number of undead warriors continued to increase.

"This is not a solution. We must find a way to get close to the pyramid as soon as possible!" Tony said anxiously.

Under the current circumstances, he didn't dare to put on his armor and fight, because he was in the god's lair!
