Chapter 198 A Song of Thunder and Fire

Chapter 198 A Song of Thunder and Fire (The End)

Many years later, when people recall this day...

What they remember are the thunder that occasionally bursts through the night sky and the boundless flames.

as well as.

Those returning superheroes.

As Red Hood swung his chain, it snatched away Crossbones' soul.

Soldiers nearby and fighter jets in the sky fired highly lethal bullets almost simultaneously.

shhhhhh!

A storm of attacks surged toward Red Hood himself in an instant.

However, just as the bullets were about to reach their target, each bullet that dragged the rainwater turned into a puddle of pus, falling to the ground along with the rainwater from the sky.

And so the head that was still burning in the rainy night blazed even brighter.

With a mere wave of his hand, the fire chains seemed to possess a mind of their own, conjuring a wall of fire several meters high around the nearby figures.

The rising flames separated the fighter jets hovering above, resembling a fiery red lotus bud about to bloom.

Upon witnessing this scene, the instrument panels of several fighter jets hovering in the sky malfunctioned, and they all plummeted to the surrounding area.

Inside the firewall.

Red Hood casually tossed the crossbones, its eyes lifeless, to the ground at his feet, as if it were trash.

He walked towards Hawkeye and the others, extending his hand: "Are you alright?"

"Great! It's never been this good!"

Hawkeye took the hand that was offered to him and stood up from his kneeling position.

He stared at the burning head before him, his pupils reflecting the flames engulfing the head.

"Jason?" Hawkeye asked excitedly.

Red Hood nodded.

Then, Hawkeye continued, "The lightning that just happened in town...did someone lift Thor's hammer?!"

Red Hood nodded again.

Hawkeye cheered, picking up his bow and arrows from the ground. "What are we waiting for?! It's time to tell these bastards that their days of running rampant are over!"

However, Red Hood stopped Hawkeye.

He said, "If possible, I would still prefer you to stay here with the residents of this small town."

Hawkeye frowned: "What do you mean? You think we're not helpful?"

"No." Red Hood crossed his arms. "What I mean is that you should take the initiative to fight back. Leave the battle in the town to me and Peter. As for the soldiers in the encirclement, they are already on their way here."

Although everyone tacitly accepts one fact.

That is, the thunder that just resounded was because someone had gained the qualification to lift Thor's hammer and thus obtained the power of the gods.

But he was still a little worried about Peter.

What if the hammer doesn't lift?

What if the thunder was just a simple weather phenomenon?

Red Hood, concerned about Peter's side of the battlefield, decided to rejoin the fight and fight alongside him.

As for the other battles...

Red-hooded man flicks his fire chain.

He hooked over the sack filled with the equipment of the dead superheroes.

"You don't need to expect superheroes to return anymore," Red Hood suddenly shouted.

Then he dumped all the equipment onto the ground.

Many of these pieces of equipment are just junk that can only be looked at but are unusable.

Red Hood, who became the new Ghost Rider, can easily enchant them with his own hellfire, bringing them back to life.

Although its effect is minimal, it is not even half as effective as the previous equipment.

But that's enough.

As long as it works, that's fine. After all, people who have been living in fear and hoping for a glimmer of hope all these years have a spark in their hearts.

Red Hood could see that he only needed to ignite that spark in the hearts of some people.

With a hissing sound.

The dilapidated equipment seemed to have been doused with gasoline, bursting into flames and burning on the ground.

Red Hood pointed at them, "If you think you're qualified, if you think this terrible world needs to be corrected, then come here and pick up these things."

"Hope has indeed arrived, but this time you need to seize it yourselves."

"Don't worry about getting hurt, because the flames will protect those who are willing to use these devices."

Red Hood certainly doesn't expect everyone to participate in the battles outside. There will always be people who back down in fear, but there will always be people who step forward and choose to protect others.

And this equipment was prepared for them.

"From this day forward, you are heroes."

As soon as he finished speaking, Hawkeye couldn't help but tug at his red hood and whispered, "You should know that we alone can't possibly shake those armies, right?!"

"Of course not, but the few dozen soldiers still outside the firewall are enough for you to handle," Red Hood said.

"But what about the other soldiers who arrived later?"

Red Hood chuckled and whistled. The Crimson Lotus opened up, revealing the surrounding soldiers and a Hellbat chariot that charged in.

He sat back in the car and chuckled, "What are Peter, Logan, and I for?"

Upon hearing Logan's name mentioned, Hawkeye asked again, "Where did Logan go?"

Red Hood started the car, and as the door closed, he retorted, "Why do you think the soldiers in the encirclement are rushing this way?"

With a loud bang.

The Hellbat Chariot burst out of the fire lotus and headed straight for the town.

With Red Hood gone, Fire Lotus immediately became much more transparent.

In a daze, the people inside the fire lotus saw dozens of soldiers outside. They did not know that the red-hooded soldiers were simply kept alive as stepping stones.

At this moment, they were all ruthless and vicious, relying on the super soldier serum to try to wipe out everyone inside.

But the soldiers who received the super soldier serum forgot one fact long ago.

Serums actually come in different versions, and the specific type varies from person to person.

How effective can serum that can be used for large-scale vaccination be?

Hawkeye watched the tank depart, a strange emotion welling up inside him.

He turned to look at the townspeople.

Some people hesitated, their gaze occasionally drifting to the burning equipment.

Some people were afraid and backed down, not daring to even look up at the situation outside.

There are still people...

"Can I really take it?"

A guy with injuries on his face stepped out from the crowd. After seeing Hawkeye's slightly surprised look, he scratched his cheek and chuckled, "Although I don't know why he wanted to burn Captain America's shield, can I take the Captain's shield?"

Hawkeye was silent for a moment, then laughed and said, "Take it! Take whatever you want! As long as you feel there's suitable equipment for you, you can pick it up!"

"Then fight alongside us!"

With the promise made and the first person to try it out, many people started to come out, then choose equipment that they felt suited to them, ready to fight the soldiers outside.

Hawkeye's wife, Toya, Spider-Man's daughter, is also among them.

She had seen her father's old spider silk projectile a long time ago.

Her choice speaks for itself.

The flames danced in her palm, but she felt no pain. Instead, she felt the flames stinging her eyes.

Hawkeye, who remained in place, watched this scene unfold as the equipment of his fallen teammates was put back on.

Previously, he would not have allowed this to happen.

Because these things represent his former friends, he would never allow them to be touched in the slightest.

But at this moment, he could only let the people dressed in their gear turn around and stare at him.

Their eyes seemed to be waiting for him to say something next.

Hawkeye didn't know what to say.

He found it a little difficult to speak.

If only the captain were here.

He will definitely deliver a stirring and inspiring speech...

"This is amazing! This town truly is a place where miracles happen."

Ultron V suddenly spoke up, then turned to look at Dr. Banner.

"I've absorbed all the nanotechnology Spider-Man provided! Dr. Banner, would you like to get inside me?"

Banner thought to himself, "What kind of nonsense is this? It doesn't resemble artificial intelligence at all."

He shook his head, rejecting Ultron 5's offer.

Red Hood's rejoining the town to help Spider-Man and the others gave him an idea.

Banner returned to his own state of mind and saw the aggrieved Hulk hugging his legs again.

Hulk glanced at him, then continued to bury his head in his arms, hugging his legs, without saying a word.

Banner went over and sat down with him.

"Although I don't know why you have such lewd thoughts, but..."

Banner turned to look at the Hulk, who was much taller and stronger than him, and continued, "You really want to have sex with Jennifer, don't you?"

"right!"

"But Jennifer is fighting against hatred right now. What if she loses?" Banner asked.

"Jenny has a bug, and the bug lifted Thor's hammer. Hulk isn't worried," Hulk replied in a muffled voice.

Hearing this, Banner raised an eyebrow and continued, "What if Jenny and Bug are having an affair?"

Hulk was silenced this time.

"Hulk can be placed later."

"???"

Is this about queuing or not?!

Seeing that the plan had failed, Banner wanted to curse loudly, but then he thought that the team's strength was constantly expanding and it seemed that they didn't need the Hulk.

He sighed and got up to leave.

Unexpectedly, Hulk spoke up and stopped him this time.

"The Earth hates the Hulk, people hate the Hulk, and the Hulk doesn't want to help them."

Banner sat back down and stared at Hulk for a while.

"But most of the people who hated you are already dead."

"There are also people who hate Hulk."

"No one can be liked by everyone all the time, Hulk."

"Hulk can."

Banner rolled his eyes; this conversation was completely unproductive!

"Listen, it's impossible to avoid being disliked. Even the most perfect person can be disliked, but that's normal."

Banner organized his thoughts and said, "Just like you want to be horny, it's normal."

Hulk grunted twice.

Banner continued, "But now we have the opportunity to correct their views, just as we correct the world."

"When people mention Hulk, they no longer think of disaster, but rather, like Spider-Man, he becomes a symbol of hope."

He stretched out his little fist and placed it in front of Hulk.

"Should we try to make changes?"

A few minutes later.

Hawkeye noticed that all the equipment had been distributed among the townspeople.

After they finished getting dressed, they all came to Hawkeye's side.

Hawkeye suddenly felt like he was back in the days when he fought alongside his teammates.

Although the equipment is still the same, the people are no longer the same.

Gazing at the increasingly transparent fire lotus, which was about to disappear completely.

Hawkeye shouted, "Do you know what we used to shout before we fought the enemy?!"

Someone asked curiously, "What?"

Hawkeye smiled and was about to speak when he heard a fierce roar from behind.

Looking back, it turned out that Dr. Banner had transformed into the Hulk once again.

Its fists were clenched, its nostrils were flaring, and its muscles twitched from time to time, as if it were full of power.

After making eye contact with Hulk, it arrogantly turned its head away and refused to look at him.

Hawkeye knew that their advantage had increased significantly in this war.

"We will say one."

Hawkeye looked around, taking in the burning flames.

The fire lotus also disappeared completely at this moment, revealing the dozens of Hydra soldiers surrounding it.

"Avengers, assemble!"

Logan didn't ride in Jason's Hellbat for very long.

After driving for about a few minutes, he asked Jason to drop him off halfway.

When asked about Logan's request, Jason replied, "Are you going to run away again?"

After a few moments of silence, Logan responded with this.

I've been running away long enough; I won't run away anymore.

He simply smelled the scent of the mutant siblings he had seen before.

Bearing the hopes of their fallen teammates.

Logan believes he has every reason to play the role of an X-Men again.

same.

He still had many questions he wanted to ask the boy.

For example, some questions about Mr. Terrifying.

"Still running?! I'll break your legs, you believe me?!"

Several soldiers surrounded a young brother and sister and began punching and kicking them.

Jamie held her sister tightly, shielding her from most of the attacks.

Ever since the abomination descended upon the town, he knew that the superheroes would definitely step in to stop this giant.

But he couldn't guarantee that these so-called superheroes could defeat their opponents.

Therefore, fearing that the war would spread to the surrounding areas, he ultimately chose to take his sister and move even further away.

At least far enough that you won't get killed by some damn rubble.

But after running for a while, the situation deteriorated far beyond his expectations.

Even the President's army has come here!

Without even needing to guess, Jamie knew why these people had come!

So he could only place his hopes on himself again, hoping to successfully take his sister to Magneto's Garden of Eden.

Unfortunately, he was captured by these soldiers on the way.

Because his sister was still unconscious, he dared not unleash his mutant abilities casually.

"Please, we're just ordinary people!"

"The residents of Hammerfall are all under control. How could you have escaped? You must have something important to hand over!"

Jamie was so angry at those words that she wanted to die.

What kind of brain could say something like that?

Just as he was about to explain something, one of the soldiers surrounding him reminded him, "Never mind him for now, there's someone behind us."

"who!?"

The group turned to look.

A figure was seen rushing towards them, with a gray raven perched on his shoulder, its wings raised to shield his head as if to protect him from the rain.

However, in reality, there was no sign of rain touching the figure or the crow.

This scene is really strange.

"Stop right there! State your name, or we'll open fire!"

Logan ignored him and continued walking.

He looked up at the horizon.

In a daze.

He seemed to see a fiery serpent intertwined with lightning, a dazzling spectacle.

"I said stop right there!!!!"

The soldier shouted, preparing to pull the trigger and let the enemy taste the power of a bullet!

And that person really did stand still.

Seeing this, the soldier asked, "Who the hell are you?!"

Logan responded to his question with actions.
