Marvel: I became an ancestor by sacrificing offerings.

[Dark green sacrificial item detected: Dr. Zola's Digital Life System]

The electronic life support system developed by Dr. Zola, who was suffering from a terminal illness, to prolong his life has extremely important research value for certain beings on the verge of death.

[Sacrifice will earn you 800 points]

In addition to this, there is also this...

Peter thought for a moment and then took out another pair of exoskeleton arm armor.

It's Crossbones' exoskeleton arm armor, the same equipment he used in Captain America: Civil War.

[Green sacrificial item detected: Crossbone exoskeleton arm armor]

[A tactical combat system developed by S.H.I.E.L.D., but due to its relatively outdated power source, it has a very short operational lifespan.]

[Sacrifice will earn you 500 points]

"Sacrifice!"

With Peter's silent recitation, another 1300 sacrificial points were credited to his account.

Looking at his account balance of 22200 sacrifice points, Peter was already looking forward to next week's shop refresh.

After using his Byakugan to survey the old base and confirming that there was nothing else there besides Dr. Zola's database,

Peter was preparing to leave with Felicia when his phone rang. It was Tony calling.

As soon as Peter answered the call, the ear-piercing sounds of intense heat and the roar of battle eagerly came from the other end of the receiver.

Tony's voice, however, was urgent, as if someone were choking him:

"Peter, are you done on your end? We're about to collapse here!"

Upon hearing this, a large question mark appeared on Peter's forehead:

"Dude, you guys are really something, right? You can't even handle a bunch of small fry?"

Tony felt somewhat embarrassed by the questioning, but he knew this wasn't the time to worry about saving face, so he quickly replied:

"These people have a much richer background than we imagined. Alexander has four eccentric men under his command, each of whom is quite capable and not easy to deal with."

Tony had barely finished speaking when a piercing static suddenly struck, abruptly ending the call.

Hearing the busy tone coming from the receiver, Peter realized that things were indeed much more complicated than he had imagined.

Alexander's four eccentric subordinates... You won't find such a strange combination of people under his command in the cinematic universe.

Although the origins of these people are unknown, judging from the previous conversations, the situation of Captain America and his companions is indeed not optimistic.

I'm afraid I can no longer leisurely fly Felicia from New Jersey to Seattle:

"I'm sorry, Felicia, it seems I can't take you to Seattle."

Upon hearing this, Felicia couldn't help but chuckle, then lightly stamped Peter's face with her hand:

"Go in peace, my hero. I'll be waiting for your good news in New York."

……

Seattle, at the secret Hydra base established by Alexander.

The scales of victory have visibly tipped in Hydra's favor.

Inside the vast underground space, Captain America is being overpowered by a burly middle-aged Black man and a young white man.

Although the strong black man had no shield, his physical abilities were comparable to those of the captain.

The white youth's abilities are similar to Bullseye's; he can throw boomerangs with precision, effectively limiting Captain America's attacks.

Bucky was in an even worse state, as he was surrounded by a swarm of bees.

His iron fists were completely ineffective against the swarm of bees.

What's even more terrifying is that this swarm of bees seems to possess some kind of consciousness, making them even more troublesome than a mechanical army.

The battle had only been going on for a few minutes, but Bucky was already covered in bites, and even his vision was becoming blurry.

This is because he had previously undergone Hydra's physical modifications, which enabled him to continue fighting.

Anyone else would probably have been poisoned to death by the astonishing neurotoxins from those bee stings!

Not far from the two, Tony's situation was equally dire.

His opponent was a strange man whose entire body was covered in gold and red metal.

This guy's body is made entirely of a special liquid metal, making him completely immune to Tony's palm cannons and firearms.

Even more terrifying is that his body emits astonishingly high temperatures; even a mere glancing blow to Tony's armor will leave scorching, melting marks.

In the deepest chamber of the base, Alexander Pierce was watching the spectacular hunt unfold on a monitor screen.

Seeing his men successfully pin Captain America and his two companions to the ground and beat them to a pulp, he couldn't resist a smug grin and turned on the megaphone to launch into a taunting attack:

"Stark! And Rogers! Do you think you're the only ones with trump cards up your sleeves?!"

"We at Hydra have been lying low for over seventy years; we're not kidding!"

"I don't know how you discovered my secret base, but now, the game is over!"

"I'll make you disappear without a trace! Even that damned monster Peter Parker won't know who killed you!"

"Hydra, ten thousand—"

boom!

Before he could finish speaking, Tony ignored the high-temperature alarm inside the armor and launched a miniature missile, blasting the nearest megaphone to pieces.

This stubborn resistance prompted Alexander to let out a cold snort:

"Hmph, what a fool! Molten Man, kill this idiot right now!"

Upon hearing this, the creature, whose entire body was composed of blazing, golden-red metal, couldn't help but turn around and shout:

"Hey, that's not in our terms of service! At most, I can help you control this guy! Also, afterwards, you have to separate me from this damned radioactive liquid metal, as agreed!"

Despite his complaints, his actions didn't slow down at all; on the contrary, they became even more ferocious.

He lunged straight at Tony, whose leg thrusters were severely damaged.

There's no escaping it!

Tony's pupils contracted sharply, and he could only watch helplessly as the fist, powerful enough to melt steel, magnified infinitely in his field of vision...

hiss hiss hiss~

Hearing the ear-piercing sound, like armor being melted by high temperature, Tony unconsciously closed his eyes.

However, a second passed.

Two seconds passed...

The expected pain did not come.

Tony opened his eyes in surprise, only to find that a purple shield had somehow covered his body.

The shield successfully blocked the fist of the guy known as the Molten Man.

The opponent's fists landed repeatedly on the purple light shield, but the terrifying heat did not leave a single mark!

This is……

The moment Tony saw the purple light shield, he felt as if he had instantly returned from hell to heaven.

Having participated in the Battle of Brooklyn, he was very familiar with this amazing light shield!

Sure enough, as the purple light on the shield grew stronger, a tall figure quietly appeared between Tony and the Molten Man in the next second.

"Looks like I've arrived just in time."

"Any later, and we could probably hold memorial services for the three of you~"

Your Excellency the Arbiter, make your grand entrance!
