Chapter 180: The Crimson Berserker Embedded with Infinity Stones Looks Like a Colorful Christmas Tre

Chapter 180 The Crimson Berserker Embedded with Infinity Stones is as Colorful as a Christmas Tree

With Doctor Strange present, everyone would soon be able to reach Red Skull and his henchmen's location—the island where the Statue of Liberty stands. Becoming the Onslaught did not restore Red Skull's bright red, skinless, skull-like face; it only made his skin texture more distorted. Parts of his torso were covered in dark red armor, while the unarmored areas exposed twisted muscle tissue.

Six Infinity Stones were embedded in his chest, each with its own unique energy veins spreading throughout his body, causing unstable energy fluctuations. Although he looked like a Christmas tree, he was also surrounded by a dark red mental energy field. Even Thor could feel the powerful mental pressure, while mortals like Tony and Fury had already begun to hallucinate.

"If I'm not mistaken—" Tony put on his armor, finally shutting out the overwhelming, suffocating pressure, "those look like six Infinity Stones?"

Kuang Gong grinned maliciously: "That's right, I guess you already know I possess the Eye of the Observer, so why don't you think carefully about what I'll do once I have this terrifying artifact?"

The man slightly raised his hands, then clenched his fists and slammed them down. The energy of the six Infinity Stones pulsed through his body, engulfing the entire city of New York in a distorted reality field. Even the sky was torn into a crimson vortex. The remains of the Statue of Liberty floated in mid-air, architectural debris drifted as if weightless, and the ground cracked open into countless abysses, spewing forth the man's dark red spiritual energy.

This apocalyptic scene did not scare the Avengers into despair—they had seen far more horrific sights.

"Hmph, playing tricks!" Namor sneered, launching the first attack. He raised his trident high, and towering waves surged around the island, seawater rushing into the sky to form a thousand-meter-high spiral column of water. A storm raged, and lightning flashed like giant serpents through the clouds.

This King of the Seven Seas is far more unlikeable than his neighbor, another sea king. Namor is not only an extremely self-centered egoist, but he also falls for another man's wife. Moreover, like the sea king, he is unwilling to learn the wisdom from the depths of the sea, instead placing more faith in his own flesh.

Although the Avengers are currently willing to cooperate with him, they distrust him greatly, and Tony, who previously worked with Namor in the Illuminati, particularly despises him. Even though many have criticized Tony's personality, Iron Man has always believed that this Namor is the real beast. Now, Tony, unwilling to let Namor steal the show, also soars high into the air, seizing the high ground, and begins unleashing a dazzling array of weapons.

"Hey, your enemy is me!" Green Goblin grinned and flew straight toward Iron Man. The spacecraft beneath his feet spewed out a stream of eerie green plasma and made a sharp turn at an aerodynamically unsound angle. Six pumpkin bombs were launched from under the wings of the spacecraft.

After being modified by Hydra scientists, his spacecraft's speed increased even further, and the pumpkin bombs in his hands were also upgraded. Therefore, although Tony correctly predicted the flight trajectories of all six pumpkin bombs, his nanotech armor only managed to shoot down three of them.

"Green Goblin, your toys need an upgrade!"

You know, Tony never admits defeat verbally. Three bombs were detonated in mid-air, but the remaining three suddenly split into a swarm of micro-bombs. One of them grazed the knee joint of the armor, and the nano-layer immediately foamed up with corrosive bubbles. Tony soon felt a burning sensation in his leg and couldn't help but curse under his breath.

"You think technology is just for picking up girls, Stark?" Green Goblin's voice, distorted by a voice changer, came from all directions.

His body had also been rearmed; the dark green carbon nanotube exoskeleton was enough to protect him from falling to his death during high-speed flight.

And that wasn't the worst part. Tony soon discovered that Friday's voice module was making noise, and the retinal projection started flickering with garbled text—he suspected that the Green Goblin was using the network to transmit some kind of virus to him, but what kind of virus could break through his artificial intelligence?

Despite his doubts, Tony disconnected the main AI and switched to full manual mode. Unfortunately, Iron Man, who was used to having everything done by AI, found it difficult to master the new armor. For example, his palm cannon was torn open by Green Goblin's vibranium weapon due to a 0.5-second delay.

Tony raised an eyebrow: "My armor isn't that fragile. Are the weapons you're carrying made of vibranium?"

"Of course!" Green Goblin grinned slyly, having closed in on Stark, which opened up an opportunity for his next attack.

"Red Skull's really generous, I'd even kneel down and be his dog!" Tony joked. Green Goblin tilted his head, but Iron Man continued, "Too bad I'm too tough to kneel!"

"You'll regret this!" Green Goblin roared, and a burst of green gas suddenly emanated from his body. Tony immediately realized something was wrong, activated the air filtration system, and bit his tongue to stay conscious. A sonic dispersing device popped out from the back of his armor, and his right arm transformed into a high-frequency vibrating blade, severing the right engine of the hang glider in one strike.

Losing their balance, the two began a spiraling descent from a height of 300 meters. Meanwhile, the battle on the ground instantly intensified. For some reason, Red Skull didn't intervene, but his subordinates locked eyes with the heroes.

Thor spun his hammer, ready to challenge the seemingly invincible opponent, but was stopped by a woman.

She was a very beautiful woman; her long golden hair cascaded down like a waterfall, and her emerald green robe fluttered in the wind. Emerald magic swirled around her fingertips, and a smile played on her lips.

"Long time no see, my God of Thunder." Her voice was as sweet as honey, and Namor in the sky was stunned, but Thor's eyes were full of anger.

This woman is Amora, a traitor to Asgard. She possesses not only exceptional fighting skills but is also a powerful sorcerer. In Asgard, she was expelled by Carnilla, Asgard's most powerful sorcerer, for breaking the rules, and subsequently used her charm to persuade other sorcerers to teach her arcane arts. Later, she imprisoned Brunhilde and seduced Skurge the Hand to kill Jane Foster, the future Goddess of Thor. Although she later showed signs of reformation, Thor never truly trusted her.

"Amora!" he roared, his voice echoing throughout the square, "Your tricks end here!"
