Chapter 515: The Will-O-Wisp

Clearing a path around the Iron Pagoda Terminator, Fu Qinghai and Qiao Shida followed Liu Ming towards the Elmhurst community in Queens, crossing a city full of zombies and various virus-mutated creatures, their pace remained steady.

"I tell you, my two moves are nothing."

Liu Ming is a bit of a sociable person.

He kept chattering all the way.

"Do you know how Chaos Zombies die?"

Liu Ming lowered his voice and spoke in a mysterious tone.

"I have no idea."

Fu Qinghai shook his head.

"Although I didn't see it with my own eyes, the people hiding in the city that day told me..." Liu Ming described it in an exaggerated and vivid tone, "That day, the Chaos Zombies landed and were gradually approaching the center of the city. Suddenly, a giant four-armed mechanical giant fell from the sky, just like a fucking Ultraman. No, it was even cooler than Ultraman. It took only two cuts to tear the Chaos Zombie apart! Flames spurted out of its arms and burned it clean."

"I see."

Fu Qinghai nodded to show that he understood.

"When did tech players become so strong?"

Liu Ming sighed with envy:

"I wish I were that awesome... Now that I think about it, I've been training in Shushan Sect for almost five years, and I still can't beat that Chaos Zombie from Perfect Human."

"Come on, study hard and practice hard, you can do it."

Fu Qinghai comforted casually.

The Iron Pagoda Terminator is responsible for clearing the way and clearing the zombies.

The three of them chatted as they walked.

Until a bomb roared down.

"Swoosh—Boom!"

The bomb penetrated the ground and exploded violently.

A flash of fire and rising smoke filled the air. The asphalt road surface instantly exploded, turning into gravel of various sizes that shot out like bullets. Liu Ming was shocked by the impact of the explosion and took several steps back. He quickly drew out the sword behind him and waved it to block it. He held the sword in one hand and danced so tightly that he barely blocked all the fragments. Several Space Marines just raised their hands to cover the eyepieces of their helmets.

"Ding ding dong!"

The fragments hit the outside of the power armor.

The shock wave blew away the smoke and dust.

The Space Marines were revealed, standing still.

"What's going on?"

Fu Qinghai frowned and asked:

"The U.S. military has started bombing again?"

However, no one had yet answered his question.

Several flying chariots roared through the sky.

Several ugly alien soldiers stepped on it and roared loudly. They had limbs and torsos similar to those of humans but had ugly faces that looked like reptiles. They had exoskeleton armor embedded directly in their bodies, and their bodies were covered with implants and luminous bodies.

"Chitauri?"

Fu Qinghai whispered with a puzzled look on his face.

Isn't it said that the major event of the plot line is Age of Ultron?

Why are the Chitauri joining in the fun?

The flat hollow chariot with a strange and bizarre shape looks like some kind of flying skateboard. Three Chitauri soldiers stand on it, one as a charioteer and two as gunners.

The Chitauri soldier was holding a curved arm cannon, which was continuously firing energy balls similar to blaster beams. Another soldier was holding a blade-like spear.

"Khan?"

Qiao Shida turned around and asked.

All the Iron Pagoda Terminators also looked at him.

"Are there other warships in orbital space?"

Fu Qinghai immediately called for rectification.

"No other warships have been spotted so far, Khan."

Lin Yu's voice was heard from the bridge.

This means that the enemy did not land from orbit.

Moreover, the Chitauri soldiers were obviously equipped with embedded exoskeletons instead of full-coverage power armor, with their limbs, skin and faces exposed to the air, and their flying vehicles were completely open. With this kind of equipment and this kind of vehicle, it is unlikely to be able to perform orbital airdrops, as the lack of oxygen in space, the low temperature and the high-speed air friction in the atmosphere would kill them.

Then it is very likely the method in the movie.

A cross-space portal!

"Deploy the cavalry, cavalry, and assault brigades!"

Fu Qinghai gave the order in a deep voice.

"Roger that. The jet bike company has set off."

Lin Yu's reply came from the Suzheng Bell.

"Find a place to hide first."

Fu Qinghai said to Qiao Shida and the Terminator.

Everyone went into a building in an orderly manner.

Liu Ming also ran into the building.

Fu Qinghai stood by the window and looked out.

There were densely packed black dots running around in the sky, and after the eyepiece automatically magnified the field of view, it was discovered that they were all Chitauri soldiers riding in flying chariots, as well as some kind of slender floating battleships that were winding and soaring, and a semi-mechanized reptilian giant that looked like a whale.

Leviathan, Fu Qinghai recognized it.

The "Tony Stark Electronic Soul Backup" contains all the research data on the Chitauri, because at that time the Marvel Cinematic Universe had passed the timeline of the first "Avengers", and Iron Man had studied the Chitauri.

This type of energy weapon, which is similar to a blaster weapon and is commonly used by the Chitauri, was described in detail in the Marvel Cinematic Universe short film "Item 47": After the Chitauri's invasion of New York failed, many weapons were scattered among the people. A pair of loser lovers picked up the Chitauri's energy arm cannon, and then used this alien weapon to rob banks and make a fortune. One shot can penetrate a concrete wall, and its power is comparable to that of a bomb.

These biological flying warships, called "Leviathans", are covered with their own bone plates and scaly alien alloy armor, which give them excellent defensive capabilities and flexible maneuverability. There are rows of mechanical fins under the body of Leviathan, which are equipped with an anti-gravity flight system developed by the Chitauri, allowing it to float freely in the air. A large Chitauri cannon is installed behind the front jaw, which has a certain ability to dive and impact positions.

In addition to being an airborne armored unit, Leviathan is also a large troop transporter, with a large number of openings in its scales for Chitauri soldiers to eject and land. Fu Qinghai saw from afar that Leviathan turned sideways and opened its mechanical fins, and a large number of Chitauri soldiers were ejected from it, landing on the surrounding high-rise buildings, and immediately rushed into the buildings with sharp spears, and began to sweep the zombies inside floor by floor.

The Chaos Zombies have been killed by the "Pojun Golden Armor". Ordinary zombies are no match for the Chitauri.

Perhaps only the various mutant corpses and the Augus could cause some trouble to the Chitauri army?

Fu Qinghai looked down from above.

It turns out that the guys who summoned the Chitauri to Earth didn't seem to explain the nature of their opponents to this group of alien troops. The Chitauri smashed the corpse demons with a few shots and stepped over the corpses to continue forward, but they didn't notice that the corpse demons suddenly began to mutate violently after falling to the ground, growing various insect structures and standing up to pounce on them again, and were instantly caught off guard by the attack from behind.

The corpse demon with a wasp head spurted out a cloud of irritating blinding gas, and the corpse demon with a cicada head spurted out white slime filaments to entangle them. Caught off guard, a Chitauri soldier was grabbed by a corpse demon with a stag beetle head and thrown wildly, and another Chitauri soldier was cut in two by a corpse demon with a mantis hand. A squad was declared wiped out.

A Chitauri flying chariot was speeding through the sky between the buildings. Suddenly, a long worm tentacle stretched out from the window, grabbed the Chitauri soldier who was controlling the flying chariot at the rear of the vehicle, and pulled him back into the window. The flying chariot lost control and crashed to the ground. Two Chitauri soldiers jumped off the vehicle and suddenly found themselves surrounded.

Several corpse demons' arms mutated into huge scorpion shells. They formed a circle and set up a shield wall, slowly approaching the two Chitauri. The Chitauri soldiers raised their blade-like spears and aimed and fired. A blue beam directly shattered the black shell, and the corpse demons behind the shell exploded and fell to the ground. Their entire chests were torn to pieces. After their bodies were damaged, the corpse demons began to mutate again.

One of the corpse demons mutated into a sea louse-like shell, like wearing a biological Kevlar bulletproof vest, but the Chitauri soldier killed it again with a blue beam.

The skin of the other corpse demon began to swell violently, and mutated into a huge fleshy tumor that was fat and soft like a longhorn beetle larva. The Chitauri shot it and it exploded directly.

"Pah!"

The corrosive slime covered the Chitauri's face.

The soldier fell to the ground in agony, covering his face with his hands.

Inside the building, three Chitauri soldiers were carefully searching every room with guns, but they didn't notice that a corpse demon with spider legs was hanging upside down on the ceiling of the corridor above their heads. It was quietly looking at them and then suddenly jumped down...

In the sky, four or five Chitauri flying chariots were flying side by side. A corpse demon with mutated locust legs turned around and watched them flying past the window. It bent its legs and gave a strong kick. It rushed out with a "whoosh" and collided with the soldier driving the chariot...

Many of the corpse demons had sharp legs like horseshoe crabs. They ran and jumped, leaped into the air and turned around to perform deadly scissor kick strangulation techniques, killing several Chitauri.

There were also many corpse demons with moth wings rushing towards the Chitauri flying chariots, and then they were shot down one by one by the Chitauri soldiers...

"roar--"

Surrounded by many ordinary zombies and mutated corpses, the Augus giant appeared on the street dragging an abandoned car and roared at the Chitauri army.

"roar--"

In response to it was another roar that was not to be outdone. Giant creatures that were half a body taller than ordinary Chitauri soldiers appeared on the battlefield. They had the same ugly reptilian faces as the Chitauri, and were also covered with implants and exoskeletons, but the exposed skin was covered with thick gray-black hair, making them look like some kind of gorilla.

Chitauri Giant Ape!

A violent biological weapon in the Chitauri Army. Iron Man speculates that it is a genetically modified species.

The giant Chitauri apes roared and rushed out, and the armed Chitauri soldiers followed behind and shot to cover them. The Augus giant swung the abandoned car in his hand and smashed it into the Chitauri formation.

The alien army and the zombie army suddenly collided.

Both sides were immediately thrown to the ground and flew everywhere.

The Chitauri soldiers wielded sharp spears, shooting and killing at the same time, and soon they smashed the ordinary zombies into pieces, but they were immediately entangled by the corpse demons that pounced on them.

The Chitauri are about the same height as the Terminator Armor. Although they are not as big as the Aug Titans, they have mechanical reinforcements such as exoskeletons and implants, and they are swift and powerful. Three or four Chitauri can rush forward and knock down and tear an Aug Titan to pieces, so they are not at a disadvantage.

In another alley, a group of Chitauri and two flying chariots surrounded three zombies and kept firing at them. The dense blue light beams soon submerged the zombies. Even the walls and the ground were blown into clouds of dust. When the smoke dissipated, the three zombies had turned into pieces of corpses on the ground.

The Chitauri waited quietly for a while.

Confirmed that the corpse demon will not be resurrected again.

Finally turned and left.

However, not long after they left, the blood from the corpses on the ground came into contact with the air and began to spontaneously ignite. The flames covered all the corpses and melted and mixed them. A giant cocoon of flesh and blood quietly swelled up, growing larger and higher.

The C virus is about to enter its second mutation form.

Shooter, Raid, Moonlight, Split...

More C-virus variants are on the horizon.

In the first stage, because the virus and the body have not yet been deeply integrated, the overall appearance of these zombies is still similar to that of humans, but only some of their limbs have mutated. The burning of blood releases huge heat, causing the body to completely decompose and reorganize. In the second stage, the virus and the body have been deeply integrated. After the pupation, the mutant zombies born can no longer be seen in human form. They have become completely another kind of creature and will become more powerful.

"The fight was actually going back and forth..."

Fu Qinghai shook his head and sighed:

"Chitauri, galactic mercenaries, that's it?"

Fu Qinghai had previously deployed a total of three companies on the surface, one of which was a vanguard brigade composed entirely of Iron Pagoda Terminators, namely Qiao Shida's First Company. In addition, there were three other reincarnation societies available for dispatch. It took a long time and steady approach to completely clear out the entire Man Island.

Is it because the Space Marines are too inefficient?

No, it's because the C-Virus is too difficult to deal with.

For the Space Marines, these mutant zombies are not very strong, but their methods are too strange and fancy, so it takes a lot of time to clean them up. But in contrast, a Iron Pagoda Terminator can rush into the zombie group and fight against thousands of zombies alone, while a group of Chitauri soldiers can fight against the zombie army evenly...

One can't help but sigh: Comparing yourself with others will only make you angry.

The Chitauri, as one of the famous servant races under Thanos, were a famous slave-grabbing race in the galaxy before they surrendered to Thanos. They were somewhat similar to a combination of the Khorne Warband and the Dark Eldar. They engaged in bloody slave fights on their home planet and claimed to be part of the "cosmic immune system", specializing in eliminating chaos, disorder and free will.

According to the supplementary settings in Marvel comics, the Chitauri do have a certain level of technology, but it is said that most of their interstellar battleships are stolen from other races. The most iconic Leviathan battleship is also a hybrid of the Chitauri's weapons that combine space sharks with biological transformation engineering. They like to capture and enslave other races and force them to participate in gladiatorial competitions. In these competitions, it is inevitable that blood will flow and splash, and this blood will quickly freeze in mid-air to form a peculiar landscape: a seemingly beautiful red snow scene. Then the Chitauri will collect these "snowflakes" and feed them to their children. These "snowflakes" are called "war snow" by them, and this is a distorted warrior culture that the Chitauri have cultivated since childhood-sounds very Khorne.

It does have some class.

But the combat power is really good.

Both are biological weapons designed specifically for warfare. Compared to the Chitauri, the Space Marines designed by the Emperor are very perfect in all aspects except for their lower magic resistance. It can be said that they have almost no obvious shortcomings. One weapon can adapt to most war scenarios and can definitely be called mature and excellent.

During the Great Crusade, the Space Marines encountered countless strange alien races and human regimes, some of which were no less bizarre than the C-virus mutants, but they were eventually eliminated and conquered by the Space Marines - although they also suffered heavy casualties in the process.

Imagine if Thanos had a legion of Space Marines instead of some cannon fodder like the Chitauri Legion, the Obsidian Vanguard, the garbage star Sakaaran mercenaries... then Thanos would be the Galactic Emperor in Marvel.

So, the third camp... is it Thanos?

Fu Qinghai couldn't help but fall into thought.

"Khan, the jetbike squad is in place."

Lin Yu's voice sounded in the communication channel.

This suddenly interrupted Fu Qinghai's thoughts.

"Come closer to me immediately."

Fu Qinghai gave the order.

"Yes, sir!"

Lin Yu arrived with a fleet of jet motorcycles.

If it was for the sake of safety, Fu Qinghai should wait until the zombie army and the Chitauri were both defeated before taking action. But after killing a Chitauri just now, he found that the assimilation points rewarded by killing the Chitauri were not small, far more than killing zombies, so he could not wait and had to take action immediately to harvest these walking assimilation points.

Anyway, after playing the three-in-one combination of Hussars, Valiant Cavalry and Tuqi, there are still many cards in hand, including the Vanguard Armored Brigade and the Xiaolong Flying Brigade... With cards in hand, there is no need to panic, and sooner or later the enemy will reveal all their cards by countering them. Fu Qinghai not only wants to seek the final victory, but also wants to harvest all the points in the process without missing a single one.

This is worthy of the price paid for assimilating the Purity.

…

At this moment, Staten Island.

Twelve spellcasters are still casting spells.

The space rift in the sky is getting bigger and bigger.

After the Leviathan battleships flew out one after another.

The Chitauri mothership is also trying to squeeze out.

However, the relationship between the Chitauri leader and the fifth-dimensional players does not seem to be harmonious. A Chitauri wearing an exquisite and gorgeous robe and holding a scepter was seen looking down at the half-elf druid Yashiborn and cursing at him.

"Jiligua La Wulugudu..."

They were all in an alien language that I couldn't understand.

"Languages ​​are known."

Ashburn felt helpless.

I had no choice but to cast a common first-level spell.

"...My soldiers suffered heavy casualties! That lord never told us that we would encounter these weird and bizarre things. They are definitely not the Earth Army, nor are they the Avengers. You must cede more interests to compensate us, more slaves, understand?"

The Chitauri leader said excitedly.

"Okay, okay, I understand."

An alien language uttered from Ashburn's mouth.

He pressed his hands down to appease the Chitauri leader.

The Chitauri have Chitauri flying chariots and Leviathan biological battleships, and they have absolute air superiority over the zombie army. The original idea of ​​the Chitauri leader was to rely on air mobile forces to quickly occupy the entire city of New York.

But then it was discovered that although the zombie army did not have many air units, at most there were some moth zombies, but once the Chitauri soldiers sank into the streets and buildings, they would immediately engage in street fighting and begin to suffer heavy casualties.

This made him very anxious.

Why are Earthlings so difficult to deal with?

...

Liu Ming stood by the window.

Watching fierce battles breaking out in the sky and on the ground.

I felt extremely anxious but helpless.

He had no way to contact his own society. At this time, an alien army suddenly came and intervened in the battle. The already chaotic battlefield in New York became even more muddied. Liu Ming really wanted to know how the society would respond. In such a chaotic situation, how could he return to his teammates?

He turned his head and looked at Fu Qinghai beside him.

A group of Space Marines stood silently without saying a word.

They should have some means of internal communication.

Liu Ming thought to himself.

"Um, Brother Qingshan."

Liu Ming thought for a moment and then spoke.

"how?"

Fu Qinghai turned his head.

"What are your plans?"

Liu Ming asked.

"Join the fight."

Fu Qinghai said bluntly.

"Join the battle? With just a few of us?"

Liu Mingxin said, why don't you do it yet?

"We? No, not you, Brother Liu."

Fu Qinghai smiled and said.

At this moment, there were sudden whistling and gunfire sounds outside the window.

"Boom boom boom!"

A strange, dull sound.

Several Space Marines were immediately cheered up.

They all knew the sound.

That was the sound of heavy bombardment.

Several Chitauri flying chariots flying at high speed outside the window suddenly exploded into a ball of fire and then fell into pieces with black smoke, followed by the sound of engine deceleration.

Liu Ming stood by the window, slowly opened his eyes and mouth. At this moment, there were densely packed jet motorcycles floating outside the window, and there was a Space Marine riding on each motorcycle.

There were also several vacant jet bikes.

This jet bike can actually drive itself!

"Khan!"

The leading Space Marine raised his power saber in salute.

It was the attendant officer Lin Yu, who led three cavalry battalions.

"Bang!"

Fu Qinghai smashed the wall with one punch, and a huge gap appeared on the side of the building. He walked out of the gap and jumped into his own exclusive vehicle - a ghost fire specially modified by Slanky... Oh no, a bull-shaped precision jet motorcycle.

"Buzz! Dululululu..."

Fu Qinghai twisted the handlebars and stepped on the pedals, and the vehicle under his crotch roared. He thought it was a good opportunity to try out how fast the jetbike with the gravity gun installed could go, and whether it could be faster than the original master's gun jetbike.

Qiao Shida and his guards also got on their motorcycles.

Fu Qinghai picked up the power Guandao given by the original body.

Turning to look at Liu Ming by the window:

"Brother Liu, take care."

Liu Ming nodded reluctantly.

Fu Qinghai turned his head and looked forward.

Gently twist the handle under the gauntlet.

"Boom boom boom—whoosh!"

Both the man and the car disappeared from Liu Ming's sight in an instant.

The other Space Marines sped up to catch up.

......
