The Comprehensive Evolution of American Comics.

Chapter 455 MODOK

Although the Falcons had the upper hand temporarily, Howard was not at ease. He still called on the staff to organize everyone to evacuate. Just when he was about to call Tony to ask about the students, he realized that his cell phone was not in his hand.

He searched around and finally found his cell phone in front of a fallen dining table. It might have been because it was knocked away when Peter rescued him just now. After that, because of the threat from the man in red, he forgot about checking his phone and didn't expect it to fly so far away.

"what!"

Howard was just about to pick up his phone when he heard a commotion coming from the crowd behind him. He subconsciously turned around to see what was happening, but he saw a purple, hot light passing by in front of him.

"boom!"

Because Howard tilted his head, the purple light passed its original target and hit Howard's phone that fell to the ground. The two exploded as soon as they came into contact, and Howard's phone turned into a pile of fragments.

"You're pretty lucky, aren't you, Howard Stark?"

Beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on Howard's forehead. The feeling of narrowly escaping death was both good and bad. He turned his head blankly and looked at the person who had just spoken and attacked him.

Should that be called a human? His arms and legs were clearly the same length as a normal person's, yet he was connected to an enormous head. This enormous head was sitting in something that looked like a helmet and a chair, which made him float in the air.

"You're always so lucky!"

The big-headed monster spoke with gritted teeth, and the sound seemed to be squeezed out from his teeth, which were almost as big as the forehead of an ordinary person. He also had a hoop inlaid with a purple gem on his forehead. At this time, the gem was emitting bursts of white smoke, and it seemed that the light was coming from there.

"Who are you?" Howard took a step back, quietly put his hands on his pants, and then began to move towards his back at an imperceptible speed.

"What is that! What is that!" The big-headed monster seemed to be stimulated. He was already mentally unstable and became even more manic. He ignored the frightened ordinary people around him and controlled the chair to float into the auditorium. Howard then saw that there was a fully armed team behind him.

Their clothes looked familiar, just like the group that attacked and kidnapped Tony before, except that the previous group wore clothes made of composite materials, but this time they were all wearing armor, and they still looked fully upgraded. If the styles were not similar, Howard might not have recognized them.

"I'm the poor wretch who was completely outshined by you and abandoned by the military!"

Competition? Military? Abandoned? These keywords lingered in Howard's mind, and he soon retrieved important information.

"Are you George?" Howard looked at the big-headed monster in front of him in shock. Although the other party was now completely different from his original appearance, Howard could still find some similarities on that huge face based on his memory of the other party.

"I didn't expect the great Iron Heart to still remember the villain's name, but I now have another new name, M.O.D.O.K!"

MODOK opened his mouth wide, revealing his huge white teeth. He was obviously smiling, but no one thought he was really happy. Instead, everyone could feel his anger based on his ferocious face.

This is commonly known as laughing out of anger.

"It's all because of you that I've become what I am now." MODOK was so excited that the aircraft on his back began to shake constantly due to his intense movements.

"I want you to go to hell with those who changed me into this!"

MODOK waved his hand, and the soldiers around him raised their guns and pointed them at Howard. Facing dozens of black muzzles, Howard remained unfazed, which annoyed MODOK, who was watching the execution, and also felt a sense of unease. "Shoot!" MODOK shouted, and the soldiers pulled the trigger one after another. Purple energy burst from the muzzles and shot towards Howard.

Seeing the tragedy about to happen, some of the remaining people closed their eyes, some screamed, only Peter had his eyes wide open, trying to squeeze out of the crowd to stop it from happening, but he was also knocked to the ground by the soldiers guarding them.

“Whoosh! Boom!”

With a loud bang, something pierced through the ceiling of the auditorium and fell straight in front of Howard. It was a rocket-like thing, but it was much smaller, only about three meters high, and it took almost two people to hug it.

The unidentified object that fell from the sky blocked the bullets coming from the front for Howard, and at the same time, its surface armor unfolded and then thick smoke was released from it, covering the entire auditorium in the blink of an eye.

"What are you waiting for! Keep shooting!" Seeing that he failed to kill Howard, MODOK became furious and yelled at his men around him. Under MODOK's threat, the others could only take the risk and shoot in this low visibility situation.

In the pitch-black smoke, a purple flash suddenly appeared, and the roar of guns was incessant. Soon, an AIM soldier emptied his magazine. He subconsciously reached for his waist to take out the magazine to reload, but at this moment, something strange happened.

An arm wrapped in dark blue armor appeared in front of him through the smoke. The AIM soldier could even clearly see the bright light in the center of the other's palm.

"boom!"

After a muffled sound, the AIM soldier flew out, hit a piece of decoration and fell to the ground unconscious, even the armor on his body was shattered into pieces.

It was like a starting gun. Under the cover of thick smoke, AIM soldiers kept screaming, accompanied by gunshots and unknown mechanical sounds.

The smoke quickly dissipated without being replenished, and almost all of the AIM soldiers lay unconscious on the ground, with only one figure in blue armor standing still.

Howard, wearing armor, raised his hands and aimed both attack beam cannons at MODOK floating in the air. Howard's voice was broadcast through the armor's speakers.

"Now the situation has reversed. Surrender now, George."

"You're always so arrogant, Howard." M.O.D.O.K. ground his teeth, making a crunching sound. "Do you think you have the upper hand and can defeat me?"

"At least it looks like that on the surface." Howard tilted his head, and then more weapons emerged from under the armor, and instantly dozens of infrared sights were aimed at MODOK in the sky.

"You just killed a few ants and you think you won. You are still as arrogant as before."

M.O.D.O.K. gave a cruel smile and continued, "You might as well look at the window, the great Iron Heart."

Although he thought MODOK was bluffing, Howard, with the help of intelligent AI, was not afraid of the other party's cheating. His weapon was still aimed at MODOK, but his view moved towards the window to see what tricks the other party would play.

Howard's pupils suddenly shrank as he looked out the window. He saw the burly man in red armor trying to return to the auditorium through the window. As for Falcon, who should have stopped him, he was being dragged by the man by the head.

Howard would never have recognized that hunched body if the other party had not been wearing a Falcon uniform.
