Chapter 176 - Chapter 176 Rescue

"Susan, Human Torch is fine now, don't be so anxious."

Colleen advised, "Gwen said there's danger below, we must be careful, otherwise, we might fall in too."

Susan reacted, nodding, "I was too impatient."

Skye said, "I think we should report this to S.H.I.E.L.D. and have them send reinforcements."

"I agree about getting reinforcements; those people below clearly have big problems."

Jessica nodded, "We not only need to save Human Torch, but also capture everyone down there and find out their background and purpose."

Susan thought for a moment, just about to nod, when suddenly, something changed downstairs.

A tall leader strode into the laboratory, shouting, "The higher-ups demand we evacuate immediately, Dr., destroy all data, we leave in half an hour."

"Why the sudden evacuation?"

A middle-aged Dr. walked over, asking in confusion, "The experiment is going very smoothly; the special factor in Human Torch's blood can prevent the Extremis from exploding."

The leader hesitated, then said, "Maya Hansen betrayed us. She knows about this place, we must transfer immediately."

"I knew that woman couldn't be trusted. Killian should have made me chief."

The Dr. cursed, then thought of something, turning to Human Torch and asking, "How do we deal with him?"

A fierce glint flashed in the leader's eyes. He said, "Kill him. The experiment is already successful, there's no need to keep him."

"Kill him?"

The Dr. was a bit reluctant, but after thinking it over, she nodded, "Fine, anyway, he only looks like Captain America; his physique is much worse than Captain America's."

Human Torch was enraged by these words, cursing with all his might, "You bitch, I will never let you go!"

These past few days, besides being a test subject, he also had to 'play games' with the Dr. Even worse, this woman forced him to impersonate Captain America—not only torturing his body but also his dignity.

Human Torch swore that if he could get out alive, he would never again use Captain America's face to pick up girls; this was karma.

"Keep cursing, you're dead anyway."

While telling others to quickly destroy the data, the Dr. took out a syringe to draw poison, preparing to send Human Torch on his final journey.

Human Torch was terrified, but he gritted his teeth and didn't beg for mercy. After all, he was a Super Hero; he still had some backbone.

"Shit."

Susan immediately rushed down towards the villa, followed closely by Gwen and the others. At this point, they could only confront them head-on.

At this moment, Skye said, "I just studied it. The laboratory where Human Torch is located is only one wall away from the outer wall. You can use your flying skateboards to blow up both walls and rush in to save him."

"Good idea."

The women were delighted and immediately flew towards the outer wall closest to the laboratory. As they descended to a certain height, the hounds below simultaneously barked towards the sky.

The women ignored the hounds. A miniature missile slammed into the outer wall, immediately blasting a large hole. Then, the four women, riding their flying skateboards, streamed in, continuing to bomb the second wall.

Bang! The laboratory wall was blown open. The leader was startled and immediately drew his gun, firing at Human Torch on the bed, intending to kill him first.

At the crucial moment, a protective shield appeared out of thin air around Human Torch, blocking all the bullets.

Then, several spider balls shot from outside the wall, hitting the guards and exploding into spider webs, trapping all of them.

"Jonathan."

Susan, with Gwen and the other two women, rushed into the laboratory through the broken hole. Their flying skateboards were left outside as they were inconvenient indoors.

"Sister, you finally came."

Human Torch was overjoyed and burst into tears. He suddenly remembered something and quickly shouted, "Be careful, those guards have all been injected with the Extremis. Their bodies can turn into a high-temperature state, easily cutting through even steel."

Before Human Torch finished speaking, red light simultaneously glowed under the skin of several guards. Their spider webs were instantly burned away, and the surrounding temperature rapidly increased.

"High-temperature people?"

Jessica looked at the guards whose clothes had been burned away and exclaimed, "You guys are truly miserable. Every time you transform, you have to change clothes. I hope your boss provides free work uniforms."

"…" The guards were speechless. Isn't your focus a bit too peculiar?

"Don't waste time, kill them."

The leader said no more, lunging at Gwen first. The other guards also attacked Jessica and Colleen.

Gwen dodged the leader's crimson fist and kicked him in the abdomen. The leader stumbled back two steps, then, as if nothing happened, continued to rush forward, unleashing a barrage of punches at Gwen.

Gwen quickly dodged. The leader's fist slammed into the wall, instantly punching through it, leaving a scorched black area.

Gwen was a bit startled. She raised her hand and fired an electric bullet at him, while shouting, "Be careful, they are not only high-temperature people, but their physiques have also been enhanced."

The electric bullet successfully hit the leader, but before it could take effect, it melted. The leader grinned hideously and attacked again. Gwen quickly dodged; the opponent's body temperature was too high, even she dared not be hit by him.

Human Torch shouted, "They are not only high-temperature people, but they have also been injected with Osborn Group's Human Enhancement Serum."

"Human Enhancement Serum?"

Jessica, while dodging the high-temperature guard's attack, asked in surprise, "After Norman Osborn died, wasn't Human Enhancement Serum no longer produced?"

"I heard it was leaked from the military. Norman Osborn cooperated with the military, and they have some of the formula."

Human Torch said, "Not only Human Enhancement Serum, but those Lizard Serum people also have it, and they even want to create fire lizards."

"So, they're connected to the military?"

The women frowned. This matter was getting more and more troublesome.

Susan thought of something and asked suspiciously, "Jonathan, aren't you a prisoner? Why do you know so much?"

Human Torch was a bit embarrassed, not knowing how to answer—in order to escape, he had been trying to extract information from the Dr. while playing games with her.

Upon hearing this, the Dr. was filled with both regret and fear. If Killian found out she had leaked so much information, she would certainly suffer a terrible fate.

"Quickly kill them! They must not leave here alive!"

The Dr. shouted loudly. The Extremis soldiers accelerated their attacks, and at the same time, guards from the entire manor rushed towards them.

"Shit, I hate these guys."

Jessica dared not attack the high-temperature man with her fists. She grabbed a nearby chair and smashed it hard against his head. With a bang, the opponent flew backward, his crimson head slightly deformed.

To Jessica's surprise, the opponent immediately got up. He turned his neck, his head quickly recovered, then he grinned hideously and continued to rush towards Jessica.

Human Torch continued to shout, "They can also self-heal."

"Self-heal? I don't believe they can self-heal if their heads are cut off."

Colleen snorted coldly. Her long sword, flashing with white light, easily cut off the guard's right arm. Then, she thrust her long sword forward, piercing through the guard's head.

Colleen wasted no time, immediately pulling out her long sword. The high-temperature guard did not die immediately; he stared blankly at Colleen, his body suddenly losing control—his body became redder and redder, and at the same time, his internal temperature soared wildly.

The other guards, as well as the Dr. and researchers, saw this and their expressions changed drastically. They quickly fled outside through the broken hole and the main door.

At this moment, for some unknown reason, the researcher running at the very front fell with a bang near the main door. Because the door was narrow, the people behind him tripped over him one after another, falling to the ground with thuds. Even the Dr. was no exception.

Everyone was extremely anxious, desperately trying to get up, but the more they rushed, the more chaotic it became. Everyone got entangled, unable to get up.

New York, Andrew lightly tapped his finger. This was fate.

Inside the laboratory, Human Torch shouted, "Run! The Extremis is unstable and has a certain probability of exploding. The U.S. military base was destroyed by their self-detonation before; they themselves are big bombs."

"Shit, can't you just say everything at once?!"

Jessica cursed angrily, grabbing Human Torch and running outside. Colleen, Gwen, and Susan followed closely. Soon, the women jumped onto their flying skateboards and flew outside.

As for Thousand Paper Crane, it had already flown away, valuing life and staying far from the battlefield.

Boom! The high-temperature guard, engulfed in flames, exploded. The fire wave swept everything around, destroying the entire laboratory. Even several surrounding rooms were affected and collapsed with a crash.

The Dr. and her colleagues didn't even have time to scream before they were engulfed by the flames and died tragically on the spot.

The women successfully escaped, controlling their flying skateboards to land on the ground. Then, they turned to look behind them, finding a large chunk missing from the villa, with flames and black smoke billowing out.

The women couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, then all turned to glare angrily at Human Torch. Jessica even threw Human Torch directly to the ground.

Human Torch shrank his neck, awkwardly saying, "This time there's really nothing left, that's all."

Jessica was about to lose her temper when a large number of guards surrounded them. They said nothing, simply raised their firearms and sprayed bullets at the women, a dense hail of bullets whistling towards them.

Susan immediately deployed her defensive shield. Her expression was very relaxed, without any fear. Let alone firearms, even missiles couldn't break through her defensive shield.

Thanks to Andrew's continuous efforts, Susan's defensive shield was extremely strong.

Taking hits without fighting back wasn't the women's style. They controlled their flying skateboards to fly outside, then mini machine guns popped out from beneath the skateboards, firing wildly at the guards.

The guards did not dodge, because as soon as the bullets entered their bodies, they were immediately melted. Then, a red light flashed, and the wounds quickly healed.

At this moment, the leader who had previously escaped jumped down from above. His crimson arm, like a sharp blade, slashed at a flying skateboard. The expensive skateboard was instantly cut in two, falling to the ground with two thuds.

"This temperature is too high, isn't it?"

The women were a bit surprised. They didn't know that high-temperature people injected with the Extremis could even cut through Iron Man Suit.

"You're dead!"

The leader roared menacingly at the women. Just then, a miniature missile launched from Jessica's flying skateboard, hitting the leader with a long tail and exploding with a bang. The leader was instantly torn into pieces, declaring his Death.

"Sorry, you're the one who's dead."

Jessica snorted coldly, "You can block bullets, but can you block missiles?"
