At Ease

"Why had they found the Hulk at a time like this? There wasn’t even the slightest warning! We weren’t prepared at all."

On a university sports field, several figures who looked like ordinary tourists gathered in a corner. Watching the armed helicopters fly overhead, they all seemed highly agitated.

"Our brothers embedded in General Ross’s team were wiped out. We can’t get firsthand information!"

"It was already good enough that we got here ahead of time."

"Let’s fight them head-on. We can’t let our teammates die for nothing."

With time running short, they quickly reached a decision.

As for not letting their teammates die in vain, that was complete bullshit. In Reincarnation Space, the actions of most Reincarnators were driven primarily by profit.

Without enough profit to tempt them, how could they possibly care about avenging fallen teammates?

At that moment, many soldiers descended directly from the helicopters and moved to surround Banner and Xu Yue.

"According to the intelligence, the Hulk will still be the one going on a rampage this time. We need to do everything we can to help him escape, go with the flow, and earn his favor afterward."

The team they had entered with had split into two groups. One group had infiltrated General Ross’s unit, only to be inexplicably wiped out in Brazil. Now, this group alone was no longer quite enough.

Forget about changing the gears of fate. Going with the flow was the most suitable course for Reincarnators at their level!

Meanwhile, Banner did not choose to flee with his head down, since Master Belnar, whom he respected, and his girlfriend were beside him.

Instead, he made the rare choice to resist proactively.

He charged straight at the soldiers rushing toward him with their guns raised.

As he ran, a roar burst from his throat. His clothes tore apart with a series of ripping sounds, then were stretched into rags by the swelling green muscles beneath them.

The first barrage of bullets reached him at that moment, and without taking a single step back, he shielded the two people behind him.

"Be careful. My daughter is there too. Don’t hit her by mistake."

Seeing the troops open fire, General Ross felt a little nervous.

General Ross could be iron-blooded and even ruthless at times, but he still cared greatly about his daughter.

At this point, Emil Blonsky, who had already been injected with the Super Soldier Serum, decisively began playing his part.

Fully armed and carrying an arsenal of firearms, he engaged the Hulk in close combat!

Relying on human agility and the powerful firepower of his weapons, he somehow avoided being touched even once by the enraged Hulk. Instead, he blasted sparks across the Hulk’s body, filling the surroundings with smoke and gunpowder.

That stamina, far beyond the peak of his former self. That ability to act as if everything were under his control. Emil Blonsky, already an experienced and exceptional soldier, became deeply infatuated with this sense of power.

This was it. This feeling!

Something seemed ready to surge out from within him.

At that moment, Emil Blonsky’s entire body seemed to be wrapped in a warm golden energy. Bathed in that energy, every aspect of his physical attributes appeared to be slowly improving.

This was the extra ingredient Xu Yue had added while injecting him with the serum!

A diluted solution of First Hokage’s Cells, along with sealed Yang Release Chakra.

He was using a native of this world directly as an experimental subject, to see how resistant First Hokage’s Cells were when combined with other serum-type enhancements.

It could be said that Emil Blonsky had already far surpassed Captain America, who had previously been considered the successful specimen.

"Roar! I fear nothing now!"

Strength surging through his entire body, Emil Blonsky saw the Hulk’s incoming fist once more. This time, instead of dodging, he roared and threw a punch of his own…

Uh, then his entire body was sent flying like a cannonball. He crashed into an armored vehicle, leaving a human-shaped dent in its plating.

His arm twisted at an unnatural angle.

Xu Yue’s true body, watching from the aircraft, could not help raising an eyebrow.

"That serum seems to fry the brain, but the results have barely met expectations."

Xu Yue murmured inwardly. Meanwhile, accompanied by a scalp-numbing series of cracking bones, Emil Blonsky forcibly stood back up in that twisted state.

As his muscles trembled and golden energy poured from his body, even injuries like these seemed to be healing automatically!

But at that moment, the Reincarnators who had been observing from the shadows finally made their move.

Now that the Hulk had cleared away every obstacle, if they did not help him now, when would they?

The group hurriedly pulled out their firearms as well and began sweeping through General Ross’s capture squad.

Next-generation Gauss weapons and energy weapons fired wildly.

Even the armor plating of armored vehicles was as vulnerable as butter before a hot knife.

"Mr. Banner, retreat quickly! We’ll hold them off!"

"Take your girlfriend and your friend and get out of here!"

As the two Reincarnators passed near the Hulk, neither forgot to claim credit with their words.

They had thoroughly studied situations like this. Only by involving the people he cared about could they leave an impression on him!

In this situation, no one could truly threaten him, but his girlfriend was an ordinary person.

Only by stirring up such thoughts in his heart could they make the most of their actions…

Bang!

The heavy-firepower Reincarnator at the front, clad in single-soldier exoskeleton armor and wielding a rotary machine gun, was sent flying by a tree branch the very next moment!

The two people staying near the Hulk to build rapport were startled.

What was going on? Since when did General Ross’s men have someone capable of threatening them?

The most troublesome one had already been dealt with by the Hulk himself!

Moreover, their team had initially blended into General Ross’s unit. They knew perfectly well what his men were capable of.

But when they followed the trajectory of their flying teammate back toward the source, they discovered that the guy whom the Hulk had punched into the armored vehicle earlier seemed completely unharmed.

No, he was not unharmed.

A large number of branches were now growing out of his body.

Their teammate had been flung away by those vine-like branches.

This was strange. There had been no such information in the intelligence at all.

"Don’t be afraid. It should be a side effect of the serum. Kill him. At most, he’s just a powerful ordinary person!"

A hip-hop-looking man dual-wielding Gauss pistols and equipped with a full set of roaming skills slid forward with devilish footwork, arriving directly at Emil Blonsky’s side.

Yet the instant he arrived, a string of sharp branch tips shot out from Emil Blonsky’s hand and pierced straight through him.

Before he could even spit out the blood in his mouth, the branch tips piercing his body seemed to sprout within him, bursting out through his flesh.

The sight was horrifyingly bloody and disgusting.

The other Reincarnators had no idea what had happened.

Since when did this super soldier possess such vicious skills?

No way, who sold them fake intelligence?!

Hadn’t they said ordinary Veterans could handle him with ease?!

The guy who had been skewered like a kebab and had not lasted even one second was a Veteran Reincarnator!

This was what they called handling him with ease?

Why did it feel like their team’s definition of a Veteran was different…
