Lynn's sharp words were like a dagger, each word piercing Dario's nerves. Every word carried undisguised contempt, sounding almost like an insult to Dario.

The instant his words fell.

The atmosphere on the field suddenly froze.

In the silent river mouth, a deep, resonant breath suddenly rang out, so loud it made one's chest feel tight.

Even from dozens of meters away, each rise and fall of that breath felt like a thunderclap, crashing heavily into everyone's hearts.

Boom...boom...boom...

next second.

Dario's forehead skin suddenly tightened and split open, and two jet-black bull horns grew out.

He threw his head back and let out a roar.

His once neat suit was instantly torn apart by his bulging muscles, and his bloodshot eyes were filled with endless rage.

He stared intently at Lynn across from him.

Was he treated like a dish that could be eaten at any moment?

Or is it prey whose fate after death is even carefully planned?

Those hurtful words completely shattered his last line of defense as a contractor of the Dark God.

Dario roared angrily at Lynn and strode toward the center of the dock platform.

With each step he took, the ground trembled slightly, and his body underwent a terrifying distortion.

The rock-solid muscles were quickly covered with a thick layer of brown fur, and the bones in the legs broke and remodeled inch by inch.

The original leather shoes were stretched to pieces, replaced by two metallic, destructive hooves.

In just a few steps, he had completely transformed into a raging bull, nearly three meters tall, with bulging muscles, ready to pounce and tear its prey apart at any moment.

Upon seeing this.

Lynn's playful expression vanished instantly, replaced by a serious one.

He knew very well that the abilities he gained from forming a pact with a dark deity could not be fully encompassed by the term "Bull Demon."

Moreover, there's more than one enemy here.

Although he wasn't sure if Hydra would get involved after S.H.I.E.L.D.'s actions, another one...

Killian of Pioneer Technology, that madman who relies on the Extremis virus, will definitely not be absent from this siege.

Lynn drew his Gale Blade from his waist with a backhand motion, his gaze fixed on Dario, who had completed his transformation.

Out of the corner of his eye, he remained vigilant against the surrounding darkness and shadows, poised and ready to respond fully.

Dario, with a ferocious expression, leaped down.

The terrifying weight slammed heavily onto the steel platform with a deafening roar.

The hard steel plate was instantly torn apart, creating a crater half a meter deep, with rubble and dust billowing out immediately.

This terrifying explosive power instantly darkened the expressions of everyone in the S.H.I.E.L.D. fighter jets in the distance.

Is there some behemoth hidden beneath New York City that could shake the city?

Before the smoke and dust had even cleared, Dario snapped his fingers.

Countless mercenaries began landing on the platform, and the empty spaces on the old ship were once again filled.

At first glance, this meticulously prepared trap involved at least several hundred people, all solely dedicated to targeting Lynn.

"Surprised?"

"A full five hundred people, all dedicated to serving you."

"Roland and that bunch of useless cowards from the Hand Society? They're nothing but pawns to help me figure out all your cards."

"I know all about your tricks of the trade on the streets of New York. Today... you will die here!"

"I'd like to see if you can still stand in front of me and spout those disgusting ravings later."

As he spoke, he waved to indicate.

The mercenaries below the field raised their energy guns, and the muzzles of the guns surrounded Lynn from all sides.

In an instant, dense beams of energy glowed with an eerie light, converging into a magnificent rainbow against the pitch-black night sky.

Everyone watching the big screen was stunned.

Those strangely shaped firearms completely changed their understanding of conventional warfare.

Can the "new god" in their hearts, who single-handedly overthrew the Kingpin Empire and destroyed Joseph, stop this deadly situation?

Since Lynn's current abilities are no longer a secret.

Dario was naturally prepared for this.

The second team, still on the old ship, did not fire immediately; their guns remained pointed at Lynn's body.

If they use the strange, semi-transparent "wind wall," then after 5 seconds, it will be their turn to launch a second round of fire.

If they use "invisibility," then they're "whitewashing" the entire platform!

Even if they could run, with the area blocked off from all sides, I don't believe they wouldn't get injured!

Dario's objective is very clear.

We will exhaust Lynn's strength as much as possible, gradually eroding him, using the lives of these five hundred men to build up our strength!

However, while everyone was wondering what he would do...

But unexpectedly, it was discovered that Lynn in the picture... seemed to have a smile on her lips.

Was he... was he smiling?

Followed by.

A gasp went up from the crowd.

He pointed in astonishment at the moving figures on the screen.

Lynn suddenly exerted force with both legs and pushed off with all his might.

The same body, brimming with explosive power, kicked two small craters into the ground with its feet.

Compared to Dario's landing, it was equally impressive.

You can see the direction he's running; he's not retreating, nor is he looking for cover, but rather...

The energy beam came straight at you without any attempt to dodge.

"Is Lynn crazy? Is she looking for death?!"

Fury slammed his hand on the table.

He couldn't understand why they didn't use those abilities!

Even though he could clearly see that there were still two people on guard on the ship, what good would it do if he withstood this round of attacks?

Fury didn't know whether to be happy or angry.

It seemed that Lynn was conserving his strength to rescue Frank as soon as possible, which made him discover a weakness.

But if Lynn dies here...

I wonder where else I can find such a useful knife!

Tony and Rhodes were speechless at the sight.

But Rhodes suddenly turned around.

As a soldier, he couldn't just stand by and do nothing.

"Where are you going?"

"I'll go help, there are just too many of them..."

Before he could finish speaking, Fury interrupted him.

"You'd better not leave this fighter jet. If you do, I'm not kidding..."

"He'll likely take you down even if it means braving Dario's attacks, understand?"

Rod's face stiffened.

the other side.

Lynn's behavior was incomprehensible not only to the general public, but also to those who knew him well.

Dario, who launched the attack, frowned.

He couldn't understand it either.

Neither dodge nor flinch?

In just 2-3 seconds, Lynn will be caught in the crossfire, and even if he doesn't die, he'll be badly injured.

Dario knew Lynn's strength all too well; the explosive power from his monstrous strength was enough to make him leap several meters.

But if he dares to jump, the second team on the edge of the boat will pull the trigger instantly, and he himself will also take action to intercept him immediately, so there is absolutely no chance of success.

So what exactly does he want to do?

Dario instinctively took a half step back, his muscles tense to the extreme, staring intently at the approaching figure.

As expected, what happened next was exactly what happened next.

Faced with the barrage of fire that was right in front of him, Lynn leaped into the air.

He murmured a sentence.

"The distance is sufficient!"

Dario gave the order without the slightest hesitation.

"shot!"

In an instant.

The second beam of energy was aimed at the body that was gradually rising in mid-air, and another dazzling and ethereal light appeared.

The first round of fire from the platform blocked all of Lynn's advance routes, while a second round of fire from the high position along the ship simultaneously took off, precisely locking onto his leaping body in mid-air.

The combined firepower, attacking from both sides, left no blind spots, weaving a dazzling yet deadly net under the pitch-black night sky.

Everyone knew that Lynn, with nowhere to grab onto in mid-air, had absolutely no chance of dodging.

Inside the Quinjet, Fury's expression changed.

Tony's armor scanning system went into overdrive, but he couldn't find any opening to break through.

People watching the live stream on the streets of New York all covered their mouths and stopped breathing.

But just as the beam of light was about to touch Lynn's clothes, the intriguing curve at the corner of his mouth became even clearer.

not good!

Before he could react...

Lynn's figure had disappeared from everyone's sight.

Dario was shocked.

Before he could react, Lynn, suspended in mid-air, vanished completely under the gaze of hundreds of eyes.

next second.

The two beams of energy, attacking from both sides, collided violently in mid-air, and a deafening explosion swept across the entire river mouth.

But when the firelight dissipated and the smoke settled, the spot where it should have been torn to pieces was empty.

Where are they?!

Dario scanned the entire platform with eyes blazing with fury.

Everyone was stunned.

He was all too familiar with Lynn's invisibility ability, but now, even Lynn's presence had completely vanished from his perception!

How can someone who has nowhere to grab hold of the air possibly escape being surrounded from all sides?

Even if he could become invisible, how could he possibly escape the range of firepower silently at the moment of the explosion?

"Sweep! Aim at the entire platform and fire in segmented bursts!"

Dario roared, veins bulging on his forehead.

"Even if he can turn invisible, we must force him to come out!"

however……

While everyone was focused on the platform, they were unaware that a figure was standing right in the center of them.

He watched this comical scene with a broad smile.

Until the platform was riddled with craters from the energy beams, with small pits everywhere from the intense heat of melting.

Lynn was still nowhere to be seen.

Dario grew increasingly agitated.

This is what he fears most.

Whenever Lynn is in danger, he always comes up with new and incredible abilities or weapons.

It was this enemy with unlimited trump cards that forced Dalio to overturn all his plans and launch a decisive battle.

"Lynn! Your invisibility only lasts for 10 to 20 seconds at most. Why aren't you coming out? Is this how you use your trump card?!"

"You really disappoint me..."

"If you're not going to let me see if you're hurt, then I'll let your friends show you if they're hurt."

talking.

A voice came from behind him, and Dario trembled. He turned around abruptly, and his pupils suddenly contracted.

Are you looking for me?

"I really liked this fireworks display, it was great!"

Lynn sat on the cage with a playful expression.

Below is Frank, who is locked up.

The same reaction was observed among the onlookers.

Dario's face was visibly embarrassed.

He seemed to have become a clown in everyone's eyes.

The verbal sarcasm, in particular, drove him almost to madness.

……

the other side.

Fury's face froze at the moment the beams met, until he heard Lynn's voice.

For some reason, I felt a sense of relief.

No matter what, he didn't want to see Lynn die here.

But Barton and Natasha, who had been in contact with him the longest, were speechless when they finally realized what was happening.

They were also familiar with the skill of "invisibility".

It's nothing more than escaping from sight, but the person is still there.

How did Lynn manage to slip behind everyone?

A fall from an aerial position will inevitably trigger a reaction.

Whether it's a sound or any other subtle movement, it will alert others and cannot go unnoticed.

Rhodes fell silent.

Although he had considered helping earlier, it was because he couldn't remain indifferent, but now...

She became even more determined to control Lynn.

At this moment, everyone's heart is filled with only one word.

That is "unfathomable"!

Wang immediately got out of the car, his brows furrowed.

He sensed that Lynn was emanating an energy he had never seen before, unlike the one from the 'Void Rift'.

Although this power was as mysterious and untraceable as before, he could clearly sense its upward momentum.

Lynn: "The Void Rift originates from the Void. Horlock is an Ascended Warrior of Shurima. How could he not be positive?"

His miraculous performance immediately sparked cheers throughout New York, and the public erupted in excitement once again.

His ability to manipulate his enemies at will earned him another group of devout followers.

……

Lynn's sudden appearance in the center of the group immediately put all the mercenaries on high alert.

By the time everyone realized what was happening, the gun barrels were already raised.

however.

Lynn simply looked down at her palm.

[Relic - Horlock's Armguard]

[Current Effect: Arcane Shift]

[Note: Allows for spatial jumps over a distance; the landing point can be freely chosen within a 50-meter radius.]

[Cooling down for 24 hours: 2/3 times]

[Current spotlight coverage: 86%]

Sure enough, we still need to pull off something shocking!

He then uttered a casual remark.

"At this moment, you'd better not fire."

Before anyone could react.

The Swift Blade in his hand unleashed a chilling arc of light.

The sharp blade struck the connection point of the cage door latch with precision, and the heavy alloy lock snapped in two.

"How about it, still have the energy to kill someone?"

Frank staggered to his feet, his cold eyes instantly igniting with murderous intent.

He wiped the dried blood from the corner of his mouth, stretched his stiff wrists, and glanced at the enraged Dario across from him.

"have."

"Not a single one of these people will be spared."

"But...they..."

As he spoke, his gaze swept over several people lying on the verge of death in another cage next to him; they were his former comrades-in-arms.

Frank's gaze darkened, but without the slightest hesitation, he gripped the rifle that the mercenary had dropped on the ground.

"I'll settle their score myself later."

Lynn raised an eyebrow.

"I only save people who are worth saving."

"They...are useless to me."

These words completely ignited Dario's last shred of reason.

His meticulously planned assassination plot was turned into a stage for monkey shows, and even the hostages were chosen at will.

"Kill them!"

"Tear them to pieces!"

The surrounding mercenaries snapped back to reality, and a dense array of gun barrels were once again aimed at the two people by the cage.
