American comics: This guy is crazy.

Chapter 374 The Rescue of Morgan's Granddaughter is Underway

"That damned Eren!"

In the blink of an eye, Pietro arrived at the Avengers headquarters wielding a kitchen knife.

At this moment, a group of heroes gathered to discuss the kidnapping of Tony's family.

Rhodes, who was mobilizing military resources, bit his finger and kept staring at his phone to avoid missing any incoming calls.

Pietro's sudden appearance immediately attracted a lot of attention.

The only people present who weren't Avengers were him and Deadpool.

Deadpool, lounging elegantly and ostentatiously on the sofa, savored the expensive liquor in his hand; he was just bored and joined in the fun.

However, Pietro was completely oblivious to the stares of others and quickly locked onto Allen's figure.

Sure enough, Alan was cheekily standing next to Wanda.

"Sister Wangwang, help me!"

Allen promptly clung to Pietro's leg, his face showing a lovesick, intoxicated expression, his eyes never forgetting to provoke Pietro, who was struggling on the verge of anger.

"Let go of my sister."

This scene enraged Pietro so much that he trembled all over, his fat jiggling, completely obscuring the slender figure that a speedster should have.

"I do not want."

Allen pressed his face even closer, looking as if he would never let go.

Killing them is out of the question, and beating them is also out of the question; making threats will only backfire.

Pietro was truly devastated.

"Allen, can you let go for a moment?"

Wanda blushed and said shyly, "It feels weird that you're wearing Captain America's uniform."

Captain America, Steve Rogers, was one of the people she respected, so when Ellen was wearing the Captain America uniform and hugging his leg, she felt extremely uncomfortable.

When Wanda joined the Avengers, Steve took great care of her, so he respected her as an elder.

"OK."

Allen took off his mask, unzipped it, and pulled a yoga pant cover from under his armpit, putting it on.

In an instant, Wanda's face froze.

This guy still has the hood; he's practically insane.

"Sister Wangwang, you can imagine me as a kidnapper, hmm..."

Allen nuzzled his head against her thigh in a coquettish manner.

Tsk…

Such a tragic scene, with someone dying, can't you at least have some consideration for the feelings of the victim?

Of course, Tony didn't want to talk and silently looked at the family photo.

I'll fuck you to death.

Pietro could no longer control himself and raised the cleaver, intending to step forward.

Fortunately, the heroes intervened and prevented a major mistake from happening.

Moreover, Pietro didn't really intend to kill, and he took advantage of the crowd's intervention to save face.

At the same time.

In Killian's secret laboratory.

Many researchers quickly evacuated, leaving only Little Chili to suffer the torment of the extinction virus.

The physical alterations brought about by the Extremis virus are like being in a furnace.

The ever-increasing high temperature inside the body felt like it was burning the internal organs, while the virus continued to repair the body's organs, making it an endless torture.

It's like putting a living person into a crematorium.

It can be described as burning, painful, desperate, and worse than death.

Kirian, who observed the entire process through surveillance cameras, was relieved that the fusion went very smoothly.

If the Extremis virus fails to fuse and goes out of control, the sign of its self-destruction will be a dazzling burst of flames from its eyes, ears, nose, and mouth, unlike now when it is struggling to hold on.

All we need to do is wait for the temperature to drop, which means Little Chili will gain superhuman strength.

what…

Chili screamed in agony, clearly having lost all reason.

The shackles binding his limbs melted the titanium alloy as he struggled, with the heat emanating from his skin pores reaching thousands of degrees.

"The integration is relatively stable."

Dozens of trials have been conducted involving the injection of super serum in conjunction with the extremist virus.

The failure rate is over 60%, and due to physical differences, the stability varies greatly.

However, the power of a failed self-destruction is equivalent to that of a high-yield missile, capable of instantly collapsing a building.

Therefore, it is necessary to build various rudimentary laboratory bases.

Most laboratories are hidden underground in the suburbs, consisting of simple bunkers made of reinforced concrete, equipped only with some instruments for detecting vital signs, making it difficult to accurately determine the probability of failure.

Furthermore, there is an escape route leading to the ground level, where vehicles are on standby at any time.

It can quickly relocate researchers in the first instance.

"What a pity. If she were male, the amplification effect might have been quite significant," the deputy said.

The amplification effect of the Extremis Virus is determined by the physical condition of the amplifier.

When they obtained the super serum for testing, they found that it imparted enhancements that varied from person to person.

Currently, the highest record is nearly ten times higher, and with the second increase of the Extremis virus, as well as the mastery of high temperature resistance and super self-healing, it has become an unkillable monster.

boom!

The little chili pepper, having broken free of her restraints, had a glint of fire in her eyes, and beneath her skin, the veins seemed to flow with scorching magma.

With a single punch, the iron gate was easily blasted away.

"Morgan!"

As a mother, I always care about my child.

Morgan is the only factor that keeps Pepper Potts sensible.

However, the entire underground base was deserted, and the dark corridors seemed like daytime to Little Chili, presumably because they were one of the places that granted her abilities.

They violently broke open the iron gates one by one.

Little Chili frantically screamed, searching aimlessly for her daughter.

The entire process was witnessed by Killian.

That's exactly the effect he wanted: the more important Morgan is, the more he can threaten Iron Man, thus becoming a protective charm.

The search was unsuccessful.

Chili Pepper looked at the hidden camera in the corner and shouted, "I don't care who you are or what your purpose is, if you dare to hurt Morgan's Finger, I'll tear you to pieces!"

Sizzle...

The video feed cuts out.

The little chili pepper boldly crushed the camera.

Feeling the surging power within her, she no longer wasted time searching for an exit. She squatted down halfway, then leaped up and punched the concrete roof.

In no time, it broke through the soil.

Relying solely on physical strength, he punched through the soil to escape underground.

Seeing the sunlight again, Little Chili took a deep breath and sprinted in one direction at top speed.

call…

It stirred up a gust of air, even leaving a trail of afterimages behind it.

The sudden appearance of the strange superhuman was immediately detected and locked onto by the reconnaissance drone hovering high in the sky.

As the image zoomed in, the target's identity was confirmed, and the information was immediately reported up the chain of command.

The military matched the facial information and then notified Colonel Rhodes.

Since it concerns Iron Man, the entire upper echelons of America are paying close attention and are doing everything they can to help clear his name.

The fact that the main kidnappers brazenly used a helicopter for the kidnapping makes it hard not to suspect that there was official involvement.

Tony not only owns Stark Industries, but is also a core member of the Avengers. If things turn sour, the consequences could be unimaginable.

"Tony, Pepper has been found. She's currently located in the suburbs..."

Upon hearing Rhodes's reminder, Tony finally came to his senses, put down the family photo in his hand, and gently patted his chest. The nanotech armor covered his entire body like liquid metal.

This latest model of mech is still under development, but its functions already surpass any previous mech.

Driven by his eagerness to save his wife and daughter, Tony equipped himself with the necessary gear in advance, ready to rescue them at any time.

boom!

It just took off.

Tony brought his legs together, transforming them into a large thruster.

We rushed to Little Chili's location with a threefold advantage.

Less than a minute later, the two met unexpectedly.

When Pepper heard the roar, she looked up and saw the approaching mech warriors. She immediately guessed that it was her husband, Tony.

"What about Morgan?"

As soon as they landed, Tony asked about his daughter.

He only saw his wife, and his heart skipped a beat; he dared not imagine anything further.

If something were to happen to Morgan, he wouldn't even know how he would face Pepper afterwards.

"I couldn't find it, Morgan is lost."

At this moment, Chili collapsed to the ground in grief, covering her face and crying, blaming herself, "It's my fault for not protecting her. I should have agreed to let her play with Nanawei. Maybe this wouldn't have happened."

She would rather it be herself who disappeared than Morgan.

In fact, Nanawi was also kidnapped.

"Don't worry, I will definitely find our daughter."

Tony crouched down and hugged Pepper to comfort her, but when his hand touched her arm, he was shocked and exclaimed, "Why are you so hot?"

Even a light touch feels like touching scalding hot water.

"They injected me with something unknown."

"At that moment, I felt like I was about to burst into flames," Little Chili recalled.

Tony didn't dare to draw any conclusions. He re-covered himself in his armor, picked up his wife, and headed to the Avengers headquarters.

His laboratory is equipped with the most advanced technology in humankind, and he is confident that he can cure his wife's condition.

It only takes a few minutes to go back and forth.

The heroes saw Tony fly back carrying Pepper.

However, not seeing Morgan's figure, one can't help but guess that he still hasn't been found.

"Banner, do me a favor, Pepper isn't feeling well."

Tony hurriedly headed towards the laboratory.

Of those present, only Dr. Banner, with his doctoral degree, was capable of providing assistance.

Seeing this, Allen lost interest in currying favor and instead followed them into the lab to join in the fun.

The small chili pepper lying on the experimental table is undergoing a scanning examination by the instrument.

Allen, with a sly grin, leaned over to check on the situation.

Uh...

"Little Chili, stop!"

Unexpectedly, the next second, Pepper Potts reached out and grabbed Allen by the neck.

Fortunately, Tony was there and stopped them in time.

"Sorry, I mistook him for Allen's kidnappers," Pepper said apologetically.

Allen stuck out his tongue, his eyes rolled back, and he was panting.

For an ordinary person, they might crush their throat in a single exchange.

It's all Allen's fault for courting disaster; wearing a hood made him look exactly like an armed robber.

Chili Pepper, obsessed with Morgan, has long lost her former rationality.

"Tony, look."

Dr. Banner pointed to the data displayed on the screen and said incredulously, "The gene sequences have all changed, with an extra gene chain that should have appeared in the plant."

This was the first time Dr. Banner had encountered such a situation, and he could not provide a reasonable explanation.

"Ouch...it's so hot."

Allen poked Chili's arm with his finger, then quickly pulled it back and blew on it.

Tony and Banner ignored him and started discussing things amongst themselves.

"Once I find out where the problem lies, I can find a solution," Tony said with a determined look in his eyes.

The heroes watched from behind tempered glass; the scientific field was truly of no help.

Science requires great rigor; even the slightest deviation can lead to drastically different results.

"Sir, an unknown signal has requested to connect," the smart assistant alerted.

Unknown signal!?

Suddenly, Tony realized it must be the kidnappers; otherwise, who would be so coincident as to contact the Avengers?

"Agree to the connection."

The next second, an image was projected.

A masked man appeared and said directly, "Hello, Tony."

"Did you do this?" Tony asked.

"That's right."

The disguised Killian readily admitted it, then said, "I'm sure you've already seen your wife's condition. My request is simple: develop a stable solution and hand it over to me. Then, your family can be reunited. I'll transmit the relevant data to you shortly."

Tony wanted to refuse, but the problem involved his daughter, so he had no choice but to compromise.

"You're really unprofessional."

Allen burst into the frame, declaring confidently, "Shouldn't we kidnappers be broadcasting the hostage's safety live first? If you kill her, all our efforts will have been in vain."

"Who are you?"

Killian looked at Allen, who was also wearing a mask, with a puzzled expression.

"I am the captain of the robbers. How should I address you?" Allen asked.

"The Flame Demon."

Killian casually gave himself a code name.

Then, footage of Morgan's imprisonment was displayed.

Inside a room, Morgan was imprisoned in an iron cage.

Morgan, however, was not afraid at all. Instead, he was bored and kept rubbing his lips against the steel bar.

I have to say, this kid has a really big heart.

"Are you satisfied now?" Killian asked.

"Very satisfied."

Allen nodded, his expression turning sly as he said, "Killian, you're wearing a hood and imitating me, do you think I wouldn't recognize you?"

Upon hearing this, Killian's expression froze for a moment.

How could that be?

How did he recognize himself?

Killian was 100% certain that the two didn't know each other at all.

"Who exactly are you?"

At this moment, Killian lost his composure, his tone turning violent as he threatened without hesitation, "Tony, I'm being blunt. If you don't cooperate, I guarantee you'll regret it for the rest of your life."

"Don't get agitated. I promise you, you must not hurt Morgan."

Tony immediately backed down, fearing that further provoking Morgan would lead to him killing Tony.

"Nephew, what are you afraid of?"

Allen scoffed, "I can bring my granddaughter back in a heartbeat."

"Stop talking!" Tony roared.

Now, Allen is incredibly hateful in his eyes, acting crazy in any situation, as if he's afraid Morgan won't die.

"You yelled at me?"

Allen stared wide-eyed, saying incredulously, "You disrespectful junior, I'm not playing anymore."

As they were talking, Allen had already stepped into the portal.

Everyone was stunned.

All because Allen's figure was often seen in the secret room where Morgan was imprisoned.

When Morgan saw Allen appear, he was so happy that he danced around and shouted something.

However, judging from the lip movements, she should be calling for her grandfather.

In an instant, Tony's anger vanished without a trace, replaced by a wave of guilt. He shouldn't have spoken so harshly to the other person; it turned out there really was a way to save them.

"How did he do that!?"

Killian panicked as soon as he saw that his cards were gone.

Instead, Tony straightened his back and said in a menacing tone, "Killian, is it? I will find you and make you pay. No one can harm my family."

Snapped!

The video feed cuts out.

"Butler, check Killian's information for me." Tony resumed his usual demeanor, his serious expression foreshadowing that the other party was about to be in trouble.

"I know who Killian is," Bucky said as he walked in, hoping to take the opportunity to ease tensions.
