Chapter 445 Family Party Starts Now!
After careful examination and discussion, Leni finally came to a ridiculous conclusion regarding Rody's situation.
That means Rody is now in a "special gain BUFF state"!
The reason why Leni said this was actually based on the previous situation of Deadpool and the comments given by the system.
When Deadpool approached Leni before, he had hoped that Leni could use alchemical potions to treat his avocado-like skin, but the final effect was not satisfactory.
This is because the self-healing factor in Deadpool's body is not an abnormal state compared to Deadpool.
Instead, it was a special superpower BUFF. However, this BUFF was used to treat cancerous lesions in his body, causing side effects that seemed very uncomfortable.
Just like in the early version of DNF, the berserker will reduce his own defense after turning on his active skills and going berserk. The gain BUFF itself has side effects.
This side effect is different from the abnormal state, and it cannot be eliminated by using control medicines such as World Instrument.
Unless the gain BUFF is turned off, the side effects will always exist.
This is what Roddy is doing now. After he used the alchemy potion, the majestic life energy contained in it quickly nourished his body. This is perfect for the desperate virus that is in urgent need of nutrients to complete further "evolution". things.
The Extremis virus itself will not destroy Rody's body, so the alchemy potion's effect of relieving the abnormal condition has not been triggered, and Rody cannot be cured.
In fact, to put it simply, the Extremis virus is not poisonous at all. If it is not poisonous, there is no need to detoxify it.
So using alchemy potion on Roddy is useless.
The same situation applies to the woman named Brandt. Instead of harming her, the Extremis virus healed her left arm. This is not a bad thing for her at all.
"But wouldn't Roddy's teammates be in danger?"
Skye looked at Roddy up and down with a strange expression, and used a more tactful expression.
This is true. Roddy is now infected with the Extremis Virus, and his physical strength is indeed not what it used to be. But once he dies in an accident, his teammates will be in bad luck.
High-temperature explosives of 3,000 degrees Celsius can instantly vaporize all objects within 15 yards of the surrounding area. No matter how powerful the explosion-proof armor is, it cannot withstand it.
"Well, I will try my best to act alone..."
Roddy was said to be a little embarrassed.
"There will always be a way to solve it. After all, Tony figured this thing out in one night."
Leni glanced at Tony, who was sitting on the chair next to him with an ugly expression all the time, although Leni guessed that this guy couldn't remember what happened that night.
"Well, I'll find a way to solve it."
Tony nodded solemnly. He had just checked on Pepper and made sure that she was fine, and then quietly left the ward.
"Didn't Dr. Hansen decide to expose Killian? She must have an antidote, right?"
Simmons thought of Maya Hansen who was locked up at this time.
But Tony didn't trust that woman.
"I can handle it myself without her."
Everyone was speechless and had no choice but to turn their attention to Leni.
"Simmons also means well. She is also a biology major, so she should be able to help. You two can save a lot of time by working together."
Leni smoothed things over, and Tony was now like a pufferfish, and he was so angry that he was covered in thorns.
Tony took a deep breath after hearing this, stabilized his emotions, and then nodded in agreement.
"Sir, we found the location of Killian and others!"
At this time, Jarvis's voice sounded in the communicator in everyone's ears, and everyone looked solemn when they heard the words.
"Where?"
"In an abandoned port in northwest Florida, the other party doesn't seem to be hiding."
Everyone looked at each other in confusion after hearing this, and for a moment they didn't understand what Jarvis meant.
Leni, on the other hand, immediately reached into the void after hearing this and took out a tactical tablet.
After connecting to the network in the base, Jarvis immediately marked the location information of the port.
"Miss Leni, Killian seems to be planning to start public executions in advance. He has deployed a large number of troops at the port."
"Killian plans to fight us to the death?"
Looking at the heavy weapons circled by Jarvis on the satellite image, Skye, who came closer, couldn't help but feel worried.
"Oh, I wish he'd hurry up and get ready to die."
Leni snorted coldly, silently noted the location, and looked up at everyone.
"Since Kilian has already set up a posture and is waiting for us to come, there is no reason for us to be timid and not fight! However, the other party has obviously set up an ambush, and the next action is bound to be very dangerous. Therefore, other people are on standby for this operation. Lend it to me, Tony and Roddy!"
After scanning the whole place seriously and seeing that no one else had any objections, Leni turned her attention to Skye.
"The security of the base is left to you. Since Kilian can find the airbus, it is only a matter of time before he comes to you. I will leave some weapons and equipment for you just in case, but more We still have to rely on you to protect everyone.”
Leni patted Skye on the shoulder. She knew that Skye had been blaming herself for scoring the Iron Soldier information before, but that was all in the past, and Leni didn't blame her.
"I know, I will protect everyone!"
Skye nodded heavily in agreement. As the only two superpowers in the investigation team, she knew very well what kind of responsibility she was shouldering now!
"Jarvis, Malibu..."
"According to Miss Pepper's request, the crane has cleared the rubble on the roof of the basement, and the family gathering can be started at any time."
Tony, who was standing by, was refreshed when he heard this. The time he was waiting for finally came!
"It's time for us to launch a counterattack!"
...
"BOSS, there is news from Miami, Seven is confirmed dead."
In a temporary command room at an abandoned port in Florida, Killian listened to the report of his subordinates and nodded gloomily.
"Who did it? Tony Stark?"
"No, it's that illegitimate daughter, Lainie Stark."
Bang!
Hearing this name, the wine glass in Killian's hand exploded, and he was crushed by him!
The subordinates beside him shivered with fear and bent down without raising their heads.
"Laini Stark?"
Killian squinted his eyes and repeated Lainie's name word by word.
"Yes, it's her. The villa has been sealed by the people of SHIELD, and Mandarin has also been captured by them..."
The subordinates carefully repeated all the information they had, fearing that they would miss something and offend the adult in front of them.
"Mandalin? Ha, he is just a waste. Without me, he is nothing."
Killian sneered twice and reached out to wipe off the wine that had just been stained on the subordinates in front of him.
"Inform those brothers and sisters of Seven's death, so that they know who killed him."
After wiping his hands, Killian patted the man's shoulders twice and signaled him to leave.
The subordinates nodded hurriedly and hurriedly left the command room.
"Laini Stark, is this your choice?"
Killian lay on his back on the sofa, looking through the glass window of the command room at the setting sun in the distance.
"Would you rather be with the person who killed your relatives than meet me?"
If someone noticed Killian's expression at this time, they would find that the hatred in his pupils had become more and more condensed, and even a faint red light was shining through.
"Come here! Give me orders, and make sure to catch Lainie Stark for me! Whoever catches her, I will reward him with 1 million US dollars!"
...
At the Slingshot Base, Lainie, who was already prepared, suddenly received a call from Coulson.
"Laini, the Security Council sent a message asking about the action in Miami."
Laini, who answered the phone, was moved by what she said, and asked jokingly:
"Oh? What did you say?"
"What else can I say? As before, no comment."
Coulson chuckled. Logically, the investigation team is now completely independent. Skye and others are now members of the Avengers, and they are not directly under the SHIELD system.
Even if it is Coulson, normally he can't directly order Skye and others to do things.
These people are now only under the control of the Avengers, well, to be precise, they are under the control of Lainie.
"Hehe, what did Pierce say?"
"Mr. Pierce was very angry, but he didn't say anything. It was Director Priss who was so angry that his face turned red and his neck was thick."
Hearing this, Lainie imagined the director named Priss's angry look, and the smile on her face became a little more intense.
"They are just birds of a feather. If Killian's Avant-garde Technology fails, Director Priss will probably not be able to hold on to his position as a member of the Security Council, right?"
"I think so. First there was General Sheffield, then Killian, and now it is directly implicated to President Ellis himself. This time he is probably really going to be impeached and ousted."
Laini nodded. This situation was not beyond her expectations. But Director Priss was anxious before the fight even started.
"In short, according to Director Fury, you should try not to make things too big. At least you should ensure the safety of Mr. President. Otherwise, even he and Mr. Pierce will find it difficult to withstand the pressure from the Security Council."
The meaning of Coulson's words is very clear. Killian can die, but don't let the matter be known to everyone, so that SHIELD can operate later.
If Killian really sent the president to the gallows, once this matter reached the ears of the media, not to mention that Director Priss's position would be lost, President Ellis's position would probably not last long.
"Well, leave it to me."
Half an hour later, over the northwest coast of Florida -
"The drone has arrived at the designated location and can start the action at any time!"
In the cabin of SHIELD 13, Mester's voice was transmitted to everyone's ears through the communicator.
Lainie glanced at Melinda in the driver's seat, nodded to express her gratitude, and then ordered the action to begin!
"Tony, you and Roddy, be careful, try to eliminate all the opponent's heavy firepower points as soon as possible, Mester keeps monitoring, and notify me as soon as Killian is found!"
Roddy: "Understood, but pay attention to the opponent's iron soldiers. Killian will definitely not only build those two armors."
Mester: "Roddy is right, there is still no trace of any iron soldiers."
Skye: "Besides, you have to be careful. I think there may be a hacker expert in Killian's team, otherwise they would not be able to escape the lock of Jarvis and me."
Tony: "Don't worry about the Iron Soldier, leave it to Jarvis and Roddy, and leave Killian to me!"
High in the sky, the SHIELD 13 fighter slowly opened the tail hatch. Lainie stood by the hatch facing the wind and looked down at the bustling abandoned port below under the cover of the night.
This cargo port, which has been abandoned for several years, now seems to have regained some of its former prosperity under the festive atmosphere of people coming and going.
Looking at the several lights flashing in the distant sky that were constantly approaching, Lainie chuckled and joked:
"You are really slow to come. Why is there a traffic jam in Los Angeles at this time?"
However, Tony didn't buy her tricks at all, and simply continued to talk nonsense along with Lainie's words.
"Well, you know, the evening rush hour."
"Oh? Then I'm not really sure. I haven't been to work in the company in Los Angeles for more than a year."
Laini chuckled, and then Roddy's slightly embarrassed voice came from the communication channel:
"Well, actually it's because my war machine is not equipped with a remote control system. Jarvis can't control it to fly directly over, and can only rely on the red snapper to check it here, so it took a lot of time."
Roddy really doesn't have Tony's ability to be shameless. It's okay to joke around in private, but with a powerful enemy at hand, he doesn't want to leave an unreliable impression in the eyes of others.
Laini thought so too. The Mark I war machine was a version of Tony's machine several dozen generations ago.
Although it was updated several times after the New York War, the hardware equipment it carried was still a bit outdated in the final analysis, not to mention that the remote control system was completely perfected after the development of the Mark 41 skeleton.
Thinking of this, Lainie turned on the active perception mode of the radar system to explore the light spots that were getting closer and closer, and her eyes quickly locked on one of them.
Mark 33, codenamed Silver Centurion!
This suit of armor was the iron suit that Leni and Tony made after they went to Spain together to find Ulysses Klaue and got the vibranium. Since it is equipped with a pair of sharp vibranium thorns, Tony now wears it as his main battle suit.
After all, as a sharpness comparable to the famous sword-Guan Shi Zheng Zong, Tony can be more confident against those desperate soldiers.
"Since everyone is here, then next..."
Leni turned around and faced the sky behind her, waved to Melinda in the driver's seat, and then her outfit changed!
Whoosh!
A pair of black wings spread out, and a set of decorations that looked somewhat similar to the angel costume that everyone had seen in New York appeared on Leni's body.
Then, without waiting for Melinda to open her eyes wide to look carefully, Leni actually jumped down from the hatch with her back to the sky.
"Party start!"
