Chapter 1458: Move Aside, Let My Armor Do It

A few seconds later, Tony turned around and looked at the pillar of light behind him as he contacted Batman. Can you hold off closing the s.p.a.ce portal for a bit?

Batman: Why?

Tony said, We have a slight problem.

Batman: Just spit it out.

Tony was helpless. Someone went over Furys head on s.h.i.+ELDs Helicarrier and ordered a fighter plane to take off with a nuke for Manhattan.

Batman: Five minutes at most.

Tony was relieved. Thats enough.

If Batman said five minutes, then nothing would go wrong in those five minutes.

So, it was now up to him to take care of the fighter plane in five minutes.

As the tyc.o.o.n spoke, the clone, as Batman, also informed Frank of the situation.

Franks face darkened. D*mn politicians! They want to get rid of us at the same time!

Batman, however, said calmly, Mm, both us and the Chitauri are their enemies. Killing two enemies in one go and pus.h.i.+ng the blame on the alien invasion is good business for them.

Frank suppressed his anger at Lukes tone. Fine. Ill make changes to the plan right away; well control the area around the building with the machine in five minutes.

Batman also explained the situation to Selina. The two of them swiftly disappeared inside a building, shaking off the Chitauri fliers.

On the other side, Natasha received a communication from Batman. She only had five minutes to find Dr. Selvig and determine how to close the s.p.a.ce portal.

After that, there would no longer be any need to work so hard.

After ending the call, Natasha looked at the large number of Chitauri gathered around the building which housed the machine, and couldnt help but sigh. This is the first time in my life Im doing this sort of infiltration.

As she spoke, she contacted Steve and Hawkeye. Help me create a little chaos. I need to go in and find someone.

Hawkeye immediately understood. Dr. Selvig?

Steve: Then lets split up the task.

As the three Avengers moved, Selina looked suspiciously at the red dot indicating a teammates location; Big Dipper was moving stealthily through the sewers not far away.

She couldnt help but send Batman a message. Are you sure you want him to be the one to close the s.p.a.ce portal with the scepter?

Luke immediately replied, Hes tougher than you; of course hes more suitable for this job.

Selina immediately understood.

They had worked with Big Dipper a few times before, and this guy was indeed very strong and reliable. He was much better than the disorderly Avengers.

She didnt ask any more questions.

Of course, she knew that a fighter plane with a nuclear missile was on its way.

At this moment, the only reason Luke had given the scepter to Big Dipper to close the portal was probably because he would deal with the nuclear missile.

If this thing really exploded in Manhattan, hundreds of thousands of people would die on the spot.

All up, the number of casualties would be more than a million.

No wonder Luke liked to stay hidden.

Hydras ruthlessness was completely beyond Selinas imagination.

As long as their real ident.i.ties were exposed, the other party wouldnt mind sending their neighborhood with them up to heaven.

Compared with launching a nuclear missile, getting a bomb into the Clinton area was as easy as breathing.

At that moment, Tony, who had just flown south over the water, received another notification from Nick Fury. The nuke has been launched. I repeat, the plane has already fired it.

Tony said darkly, Got it. He hung up again.

If they stopped the fighter plane in advance, the missile wouldnt be a threat at all and the s.p.a.ce portal could be closed immediately.

A launched missile was different.

A pilot in a fighter plane wouldnt be able to withstand a constant load of 7 to 8 Gs.

The missile didnt have to worry about that. A load of over 20 Gs wasnt a problem for it at all.

However, its attack trajectory could be roughly predicted.

Given the speed of the Mark suit, Tony was in fact confident he could stop it.

He didnt dare imagine the consequences if he made a mistake.

He couldnt ignore the lives of millions of people.

At that moment, Jarvis had already locked onto the fast-moving missile on the screen and had calculated the best route to intercept it.

Tony took a deep breath and cleared his mind.

It was easier to do than he had thought. He grabbed the missile without any mistakes.

However, it was already very close to Manhattan, and an explosion here would be very dangerous. A suitable dustbin was undoubtedly very important.

The tyc.o.o.n began to calculate the route. He had to send it into the portal as soon as possible.

Suddenly, the familiar black armor swiftly approached him. Stupefied, Tony asked, Why are you here?

Batman: Whats wrong with you? Get out of the way and let my armor do it.

Tony: What?

Batman: Is there a problem? Why do you have to do it in person when you can safely control the suit?

Tony opened his mouth, only to find that he had nothing to say.

As they spoke, the Bat suit changed directions and forced Tony away from the missile. Dont just stand there. The Chitauri army isnt dead yet.

As Luke spoke, he focused on the interior of the missile that he was holding up with both hands.

He soon found what looked like several remote detonators, and he put them away.

It was now impossible to detonate the missile ahead of time.

This was just a missile, not a bomb made by terrorists. The remote detonators could be considered add-ons; there was no need to dismantle them.

After all, before this, the American military hadnt needed to worry about the enemy demolis.h.i.+ng missiles with their bare hands.

After that, the building with the Tesseract machine was right in front of him.

The thrusters on the Bat suit as well as the extra gear he was wearing suddenly exploded, instantly changing the missiles trajectory.

At that moment, many people who were paying attention to Manhattan saw that familiar black armor suddenly do a 90-degree turn in the air with the missile and fly straight up.

They picked up speed, instantly exceeding Mach 1.

In less than a second, Batman charged into the s.p.a.ce portal that was thousands of meters high with the missile.

On the ground, the two teams had already started fighting even before the missiles approach.

Batman had already said that it was just a remote-controlled suit.

Once the Bat suit charged into the s.p.a.ce portal with the nuclear missile, they had to close it as soon as possible to ensure that it didnt threaten Manhattan.

With Franks arrangements, the full support of his teammates, and Selina in her symbiotic form, Big Dipper arrived at the machine keeping the s.p.a.ce portal open in a timely manner.

The moment he confirmed that the clone had charged into the portal, Big Dipper stabbed at the Tesseract in the machine with the tip of the spear.

The light blue light reappeared around the machine, but this time, it couldnt stop the scepter from getting close..
