Anti-Blood God Armor
"That’s right. General Ross is a useless fool. He spent over a decade and still failed to create an Abomination army."
Ultron did not deny it. "I’m different from him. I successfully improved the Abomination Potion. It’s practically a perfect match for Deviants. Today, you’ll see plenty of Abominations. Hahaha."
"If you had truly succeeded in improving it, you would have used it long ago. Your experiment definitely isn’t complete yet."
Old Tony said disdainfully, "Son, you’re still far too green to fool your old man."
"Just wait and see."
Ultron stubbornly insisted. In truth, Old Tony was right. The Abomination Potion experiment had not been completed—every Deviant Machine injected with it had died.
So far, the only successful subject was Proxima Midnight. And her success was not because the potion was perfect, but because Proxima Midnight possessed an exceptional physique.
Proxima Midnight carried Deviant genes and Abomination Blood. Combined with her deadly spear, even Tony was forced back again and again. In fact, if he had not been able to create illusions, he might already have lost.
"Abomination."
The appearance of Abomination Blood enraged one person: Dr. Banner. He viciously smashed the Deviant Machine in his hand into the ground, then charged at Proxima Midnight with booming strides.
Once he was close, Dr. Banner leaped high into the air and tackled Proxima Midnight from midair to the ground. Then, his right fist struck her head repeatedly with overwhelming force. Even Proxima Midnight was left a little dazed by the blows.
Proxima Midnight quickly recovered. She tilted her head aside to evade Dr. Banner’s punch, flung him away, climbed to her feet, and thrust her spear at him.
Just then, a volley of missiles slammed into Proxima Midnight. She was blasted away on the spot, rolling repeatedly across the ground.
Tony flew to Dr. Banner’s side and said, "Dr. Banner, it’s a pleasure fighting alongside you. By the way, Bert seemed to have given you a bottle of Rage Potion earlier. I think you can drink it now."
Dr. Banner climbed up from the ground and said irritably, "No need. As long as you’re around, I’ll never run short on anger."
"That really breaks my heart… Move!"
Before Tony could finish, Proxima Midnight charged in with her deadly spear. He hurriedly told Dr. Banner to dodge, and then the three of them began a fierce melee on the ground.
The final pair in the battle between the experts in the sky was Thor against Corvus Glaive. Corvus Glaive looked at Thor and said disdainfully, "Isn’t this our Thunderball Thor?"
"Thunderball Thor?"
Thor’s face darkened slightly. Loki laughed wickedly in the distance. It was worth mentioning that he had transformed into Hammer Loki, swinging Thor’s Hammer nonstop with impressive results.
"Die!"
Thor could not be bothered with nonsense. He swung Stormbreaker, bringing countless bolts of lightning crashing toward Corvus Glaive. Corvus Glaive retreated while forcefully hurling the spear in his hand at Thor.
Thor twisted aside to evade it. At that moment, Corvus Glaive appeared out of thin air beside the spear and kicked Thor in the waist. Thor crashed into the ground with a boom, kicking up a cloud of dust.
"Nothing special."
Corvus Glaive sneered and swooped down from the sky to pursue him. Thor roared and swung his axe hard, sending an enormous bolt of lightning at Corvus Glaive.
Corvus Glaive nimbly evaded the lightning, then rushed to Thor’s side and thrust his spear at Thor’s chest.
Thor swept Corvus Glaive’s spear aside with his axe, then backhanded an axe strike at Corvus Glaive’s waist. Surprisingly, Corvus Glaive did not dodge at all, driving his spear straight toward Thor’s chest.
Thor hurriedly shifted away from the vital point. The next moment, Thor’s axe cleaved Corvus Glaive in half at the waist, while Corvus Glaive’s spear pierced Thor’s shoulder.
It looked as if he had won, but Thor instinctively felt that something was wrong. Just then, light flashed across Corvus Glaive’s body, and his severed halves fused back together. He gave Thor a ferocious grin and violently twisted the spear.
"Get lost!"
Thor roared in pain as lightning erupted from his body, blasting Corvus Glaive away. However, Corvus Glaive was barely injured and charged in again.
Just as before, Corvus Glaive completely abandoned defense and attacked with reckless abandon. Given Thor’s temper, there was no way he would indulge him. Enduring an injury, Thor smashed Corvus Glaive’s head apart with one axe blow.
Smashed apart, not chopped off. Yet to everyone’s shock, even such a severe injury did not kill Corvus Glaive. In the blink of an eye, his head had fully regenerated.
"Sorry, but I’m immortal, Thunderball Thor. Today, you’re the only one who’s going to die."
Corvus Glaive laughed wildly and continued attacking. Thor grew increasingly enraged. With a roar, he split Corvus Glaive down the middle with his axe. That was not all—the lightning on the axe erupted, burning both halves of Corvus Glaive’s body to ashes.
"That should have killed you, right? Remember this: I’m Thor, the God of Thunder, not some damn Thunderball."
Thor cursed unhappily. At that moment, light flashed, and the ashes on the ground turned back into Corvus Glaive. Then, with a sweep of his spear, he tore a large gash across Thor’s chest.
"You didn’t die even after that?"
Thor was utterly shocked. He hesitated for a moment, then retreated to avoid Corvus Glaive’s savage assault.
"Lightning represents offense. It represents bravery. Thunderball Thor, you’re doomed to lose today."
Corvus Glaive laughed madly, battering Thor back again and again until Thor was frustrated to the extreme.
"What a brute."
Loki snorted coldly, but he had no intention of helping Thor. Nothing delighted him more than seeing his foolish brother make a fool of himself.
What Loki did not know was that Thor was talking to Wang Bert. "Bert, how much longer do I have to keep acting? This is so boring."
Wang Bert asked, "You figured it out?"
"I figured it out ages ago. That guy’s true body is the spear. That body is just a prop. As long as the spear isn’t destroyed, he’ll never die."
Thor said disdainfully, "He thinks he can fool me, but he has no idea I saw through him long ago. If I weren’t worried about exposing my earth-shattering wisdom, I would have chopped him to pieces already."
Wang Bert said with a disappointed expression, "Earth-shattering wisdom? Thor, you disappoint me. You actually learned to brag like Loki."
Thor complained, "Your expression is way too exaggerated. I suggest you get some professional acting lessons."
Wang Bert said, "I’m an idol-type actor. I don’t make a living off skill."
"You’re even better at bragging than I am, aren’t you?"
Thor said, "Bert, something is off. Deviants couldn’t possibly possess such a bizarre spear."
"It is indeed strange."
Wang Bert briefly told him about the Behind-the-Scenes Manipulator, then said, "Keep acting. The Behind-the-Scenes Manipulator will definitely show up today. You need to hit him hard when he does."
"No problem. I’ve been playing dumb for so long, I definitely need to ambush someone. Otherwise, wouldn’t all that acting have been for nothing?"
Thor said, "They actually dared call me Thunderball. In a while, I’ll show them just how good my body is. You have no idea how many women used to drool over it."
Wang Bert complained, "I seriously doubt the results of Odin and Hela’s upbringing. You’re even more narcissistic than Loki now."
Thor said solemnly, "I simply have a deeper understanding of myself."
Wang Bert silently gave him the middle finger. Then, while turning the Deviant Machines around him into dirt, he pondered when the hidden hand would make its move.
Wang Bert narrowed his eyes slightly. The hidden hand’s target should be Old Tony—or rather, Materialism Power. As long as I keep a close eye on Old Tony, I can ruin the hidden hand’s plan.
Wang Bert sneered. Let me see who you really are. Hmph, so what if you truly are a Creator God? Without Materialism Power, even a Creator God can still be beaten up by me—and brutally at that.
"Ultron, there’s something wrong with these four helpers of yours."
Old Tony was also a sharp man. He asked Ultron, "They aren’t Deviant Machines. If I’m not mistaken, they’re your collaborators. You left Earth and came to this planet because of them, right?"
"Of course they aren’t Deviant Machines. They’re Deviants."
Ultron said, "As for where they came from, you don’t need to know. Because you’ll soon die by my hand."
Old Tony said coldly, "It seems my child has made some bad friends. Don’t worry. I’ll kill you and all those bad friends of yours."
Wang Bert complained from below, "Old Tony, are you sure you aren’t a supervillain?"
Old Tony could not be bothered with Wang Bert. He said to Ultron, "Ultron, I more or less know how strong you are now. It’s time for you to learn how strong I am."
As he spoke, the Nanotech Armor on Old Tony’s body rapidly retracted into his chest. Seeing an opportunity, Ultron immediately swung more than ten tentacles at Old Tony.
At that moment, spatial light shone from Old Tony’s chest. A small space firmly protected him, blocking every tentacle attack.
"Without the Time Stone, how can you possibly fight me?"
Ultron smiled disdainfully and attacked the small space around Old Tony with all his strength, trying to smash it apart completely.
Old Tony ignored Ultron. With a thought, a mass of blood-red light emerged from his body and formed a vicious suit of blood-colored armor styled like a monstrous beast.
Ultron and Wang Bert were both stunned. Why did Old Tony’s armor feel alive? "Eternals!"
The Eternals all cried out in alarm. Phastos roared, "Tony Stark, what have you done? Why does this armor carry the aura of us Eternals?"
"Old Tony, are you conducting another dangerous forbidden experiment?"
Steve frowned deeply. Old Tony never knew how to learn his lesson.
"This experiment isn’t dangerous. This is the Anti-Blood God Armor I designed over this period. It’s a Biological Armor."
Old Tony said calmly, "Simply put, it is both an Eternal and armor. Or rather, an armor-type Eternal. It will only assist me and will not erode my mind, so I won’t turn evil like Ultron."
Black Widow complained, "You really won’t turn evil like Ultron, because you already turned evil a long time ago—and you’re completely beyond saving."
Phastos shouted, "Tony Stark, what you’ve done is equivalent to enslaving us Eternals. We will never let this go."
"Do whatever you want. If you have the ability, come get revenge."
Old Tony said with utter disdain. Everyone was speechless. That was absolutely something a villain would say.
Sersi could not help asking Wang Bert, "Blood God, aren’t you worried about Old Tony’s armor? Its name is Anti-Blood God Armor. It was clearly designed specifically to counter you."
"If that armor had any other name, I might actually be a little worried."
Wang Bert smiled. "Unfortunately, it’s called Anti-Blood God Armor. I can’t bring myself to worry even if I want to."
Sersi was full of question marks, completely unable to understand what was going on.
"Tony Stark, you truly are impressive. You actually developed the Anti-Blood God Armor in just one month. Unfortunately, even with the Anti-Blood God Armor, you are no match for me. I am the strongest."
Ultron smashed the space in front of Old Tony with one punch, then darted rapidly around him like a whirlwind. At the same time, red light lit up in his eyes, and two laser beams shot straight at Old Tony’s head.
Old Tony suddenly vanished like a phantom. When he reappeared, he was already behind Ultron. Red light lit up in his eyes, and two lasers blasted fiercely into Ultron’s back. Ultron was sent flying on the spot, two large holes opening in his back.
"This is impossible."
Ultron was shocked beyond belief. Just as he was about to stop, Old Tony suddenly rushed to his side and smashed a glowing golden fist into him.
Ultron fell to the ground like a meteor, directly creating a crater more than a hundred meters wide.
That was not all. Red light flashed in Old Tony’s eyes as two lasers repeatedly cut across Ultron’s body, rapidly slicing him apart.
Only Ultron’s regenerative ability kept him alive. Otherwise, he would already have been dead.
As Ultron used Nanoparticles to form a shield against the lasers, he shouted in disbelief, "Impossible! You actually concentrated the Eternals’ abilities into the Anti-Blood God Armor?"
Ultron was not the only one who could not believe it. The Eternals were equally dumbfounded. Just now, Old Tony had used the abilities of Makkari, Gilgamesh, and Ikaris, but he had never absorbed any of their energy.
"Nothing is impossible. Your old man is a genius among geniuses."
As Old Tony continued firing lasers, he raised both hands. Golden energy rapidly gathered within them—this was Kingo’s ability.
"You unlocked the secrets of Eternal genes? Impossible! The Eternals are creations of the Celestial Group."
Ultron shouted in shock. Clearly, Old Tony had transplanted every Eternal gene into the Anti-Blood God Armor. This was far more advanced than the absorption used by Deviants.
The Anti-Blood God Armor was somewhat similar to the Sentinel Robot. The difference was that the Anti-Blood God Armor was compatible with every Eternal gene, while the Sentinel Robot used Mystique’s genes to simulate the genes of other mutants.
All the Eternals looked at Old Tony with complicated expressions, containing both awe and disgust. Having their genes deciphered felt even worse than standing naked before Old Tony.
"So what if they are the Celestial Group? Humanity is no worse than the Celestial Group."
As Old Tony spoke, he hurled the basketball-sized golden sphere in his hands at Ultron below. With a thunderous boom, Ultron was blown into four pieces.
Ultron still did not die. His severed limbs rapidly gathered toward his head. Old Tony was about to use the Space Stone to divide Ultron apart when a group of Deviant Machines flew up and attacked him.
