"My stuff, of course, can deal with you. I am Tony Stark."
Tony looked smug. He thought of something and complained, "This guy said so many words, but none of them were useful. I still don't know what grudge I have with him."
Steve grabbed the steel frame and jumped up, laughing, "It seems you really can deal with him."
Tony arrogantly said, "Of course. Killian is indeed powerful, but I'm sorry, I'm even more powerful."
Just then, Gwen's solemn voice came through the communicator, "Mr. Stark, Captain, the danger has escalated to extreme danger."
"What? Does anyone else have the Extremis Potion?"
Tony and Steve were both startled at the same time. Just then, in the sea of fire below, a huge, naked figure with two dragons tattooed on his chest slowly stood up.
Then, a terrifying ball of flame spewed from the figure's mouth, wildly attacking Tony and Steve. Their expressions changed, and they both jumped to the side.
The next second, the steel frame was melted by the flames, turning into molten iron and falling down.
"Tony Stark, I want you dead."
The huge figure roared. It was Killian, who had fallen into the sea of fire earlier—the previous explosion hadn't killed him. Seeing that the situation was dire, he directly injected himself with the Extremis Potion and R19 Potion.
Under the dual effects of the Extremis and the Rage serum, Killian transformed into a ten-meter-tall high-temperature giant, far more powerful than before.
Killian had injected the perfect Extremis.
Tony couldn't help but curse, "fuck, this guy isn't dead?"
Rhode complained, "Tony, have you noticed, you've been getting slapped in the face all day today. Please, from now on, don't say another word."
Tony was about to reply when Killian's huge, crimson palm, radiating terrifying high temperatures, slammed towards him.
Tony hurriedly flew to dodge. Seeing this, Killian kicked the nearby steel frame, sending a large amount of steel flying out, densely shooting towards Tony.
Tony couldn't dodge in time and was hit by several steel beams, falling to the ground with a bang.
Killian raised his foot to stomp Tony to Death. Just then, a spiral crossbow bolt, with a violent whirring sound, hit him in the back of the head, spinning madly inward.
Scarlett seized the opportunity well, but unfortunately, her crossbow bolt wasn't hard enough and couldn't penetrate Killian's skull. Killian grabbed the spiral crossbow bolt with his backhand and crushed it.
"Scarlett, prepare to teleport. Other Superheroes, come with me to attack Killian."
Tony shouted. The Superheroes nodded and rushed towards Killian.
Tony, with Rhode and the unmanned Iron Man Suit, fired wildly at Killian. Unfortunately, all bullets turned into molten iron as soon as they approached Killian.
Killian was enraged. His large hands repeatedly slapped at the Iron Man Suit. Tony, Rhode, and the unmanned Iron Man Suit hurriedly dodged.
A moment later, an unmanned Iron Man Suit was hit by Killian's large hand and instantly turned into molten iron. Tony and Rhode swallowed nervously.
Killian was about to continue his attack when Electro teleported in front of him, sending a large amount of electricity wildly at his eyes.
Killian immediately closed his eyes. Then, he vigorously shook his hair, and more than ten reddish-hot spikes shot out like spears towards Electro. Electro's expression changed, and he hurriedly teleported away.
This was the hedgehog gene from the Rage serum.
"Banner, invincible."
Looking at the fierce high-temperature giant, Dr. Banner felt a little nervous. He took a deep breath, mimicking Hulk, and chanted a slogan to himself. Then, he forcefully leaped towards Killian, slamming his fists hard at the opponent's head.
Killian opened his mouth, and a burst of fire spewed out. Dr. Banner was instantly charred and fell to the ground. Of course, he couldn't die; his body rapidly healed.
"Even Dr. Banner is so vulnerable?"
Everyone's expressions changed, and they gritted their teeth and continued to attack. Unfortunately, they were no match for Killian at all.
The current Killian was too powerful.
At this moment, Killian noticed Scarlett and the others gathering on the deck and immediately understood what they wanted to do. He immediately strode towards the deck, and at the same time, lifted a nearby container and threw it forcefully at the people on the deck.
Scarlett's expression changed, and she hurriedly flew into the sky. Then, she pushed both hands upward simultaneously, runes flickered, and a strong wind emerged. The container was blown aside and splashed into the sea.
Seeing this, Killian waved his large hand and slammed it forcefully at Scarlett. Scarlett hurriedly dodged. Just then, Killian's large hand split open, and a mass of magma-like blood flew out, hitting Scarlett's armor squarely.
Scarlett's armor was rapidly melted by the high temperature. Her expression changed, and she quickly landed on the deck.
Then, Scarlett quickly cast a spell. Her armor detached from her body, shrank, and returned to her waist. The damaged parts gradually recovered—the magic armor had self-healing abilities.
Killian was about to continue his attack when several Quinjets rushed over to attack him. He snorted coldly and dealt with the Quinjets first.
Scarlett said with a grim expression, "My armor is destroyed, I can no longer teleport. Also, Killian knows I can teleport."
"What?"
Everyone's expressions changed dramatically. Without Scarlett's teleportation ability, most of them would die on the abandoned oil tanker.
"S.H.I.E.L.D. really has problems."
Tony and Steve were both surprised and angry. Scarlett's teleportation ability was a secret, known to few. S.H.I.E.L.D. was the most suspect.
At this moment, Killian violently shook his head, and high-temperature spikes shot out, piercing through the Quinjets in the sky like spears.
Boom, boom, boom…
The Quinjets exploded one after another, falling downward with flames and black smoke.
"fuck."
Garrett cursed. Every time a Quinjet was deployed, it seemed to end badly.
"All of you, today, will die."
Killian roared, and the surrounding air vibrated violently, as if fearing him.
"Killian, long live!"
The Extremis Warriors cheered. Killian was too powerful, like a god.
"Humans injecting the Rage serum can actually become this powerful?"
Obadiah clicked his tongue. He thought of something, turned to look at Tony, his face full of excitement. Finally, he could kill this guy.
The Superheroes' hearts sank. With Killian's current strength, let alone defeating him, even escaping was impossible. This time, they might be completely wiped out.
Steve thought of something and touched the small metal box at his waist, his expression somewhat hesitant. He wasn't afraid of sacrifice; he was afraid of becoming a monster and indiscriminately killing his own people.
"I really am unlucky."
President Ellis gave a bitter smile. He had thought a savior had arrived, but unexpectedly, even the Superheroes were no match for Killian.
Andrew, well, Andrew was still drinking tea and watching the show. What? Why didn't he make a move?
Why would Andrew make a move? There was no benefit—this battle took place on the high seas, so there were hardly any souls.
The reason Andrew had acted before was because he could reap a large number of soul contracts, not specifically to save those Superheroes.
Furthermore, Gwen certainly wouldn't die. She had Demon Lord Power within her. Let alone Killian, even Godzilla couldn't kill her.
As for Scarlett, it wouldn't matter if she died. It would be a good opportunity for her to study in Rebirth Hell.
Just then, Andrew sensed something and pulled Peggy Carter's consciousness into an illusion—Peggy Carter was using a Demon Lord business card.
Seeing the mature eighteen-year-old Carter, a sentence suddenly popped into Andrew's mind: "Mrs. Carter, you wouldn't want Captain to…"
"I'm not that kind of character."
Andrew, in his human-flame form, shook his head and said to Carter, "Hello, Ms. Carter, I am the Hell Demon King."
"Hell Demon King?"
Carter was stunned. Steve had only told her that the trading partner was a powerful being, not the Hell Demon King.
Carter thought of something and asked, "Are you the Demon King who saved New York?"
"To be precise, I am the Demon King who defeated Mephisto."
Andrew smiled, "Ms. Carter, I believe you understand what I mean."
"I understand."
Carter nodded. She went straight to the point, "Hell Demon King, I want to use my soul after my Death to bring peace to the Extremis disaster."
The battle on the high seas had been continuously monitored by S.H.I.E.L.D. Carter, using S.H.I.E.L.D.'s network, was well aware of Steve and their current situation.
"Ms. Carter, I think you've misunderstood a little."
Andrew said, "You are different from Captain Rogers. Captain Rogers's soul is a holy spirit. I am willing to trade a city for his soul. Your soul is just an ordinary soul."
Carter asked in surprise, "Are you saying my soul isn't worth much?"
"Compared to Captain Rogers's soul, your soul is indeed not as valuable."
Andrew smiled, "However, you are excellent, and I am very interested in hiring you as a senior executive in Hell. So, I will give you better terms. Other souls can only save one person, but you can save two people."
"Only save two people?"
Carter frowned. Saving only two people was far from enough. More importantly, if Killian wasn't eliminated, even saving Steve would be useless, as Killian would definitely continue to hunt them down.
Also, Killian clearly had a big conspiracy. If they succeeded, the entire world would be in danger. He had to be stopped.
After thinking for a moment, Carter asked, "Hell Demon King, if I use my soul to exchange for teleporting Killian to Miami, would that work?"
"You want to teleport Killian into Miami?"
Andrew was a little surprised. He asked, "Ms. Carter, do you know that many people will die if you do that?"
"Don't you want me to work for you?"
Carter said, "I can work for you after I die, on the condition that you trap Killian for a few minutes. The Peace Knights are in the city, and they will kill Killian and protect the people in the city."
Andrew said, "I can help you trap Killian for two minutes, but you need to know that even so, people will still die."
Carter said very decisively, "Not too many people will die. Exchanging a small price for the cessation of disaster is very worthwhile."
"For you, it's indeed very worthwhile."
Andrew shook his head. Carter, being able to become the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., was naturally not someone soft-hearted.
Sacrificing a few people for global safety is a good deal for many, only Superheroes would firmly prevent such a thing, that's why they are Superheroes.
Furthermore, compared to Nick Fury, Carter was actually quite good. If it were Nick Fury, he wouldn't even think about trapping Killian for a few minutes.
Andrew said no more. He said, "I can give those Superheroes a teleportation stone. As long as they hit Killian with the teleportation stone, they can teleport Killian to Miami.
However, whether they succeed or not, and whether Killian will be eliminated in Miami, has nothing to do with me."
This contract did not violate Andrew's agreement with Ancient One. In Eastern terms, all the karma would be borne by Carter, as Andrew only provided a teleportation stone.
"Okay."
Carter nodded. She had already decided who to give the teleportation stone to. Of course, it definitely wouldn't be Steve; Steve couldn't do such a thing.
"Very well, Ms. Carter, I look forward to the day you take up your post in Hell."
Andrew wasted no words and presented a contract to Carter. Carter carefully read the contents and signed her name.
Carter said, "I also want to see what Hell is like, but I'm only eighteen now, so Death is still far off."
Andrew asked, feigning confusion, "Didn't Steve tell you that you can only live until you're twenty?"
"What?"
Carter was dumbfounded. At this moment, Andrew laughed, "Just kidding. Don't worry, time is nothing to us Hell Demon Kings."
Carter wanted to roll her eyes. She was a little surprised, so even the Hell Demon King made jokes?
Andrew took out a stone and said, "This is a teleportation stone. You decide who to give it to."
Carter immediately said, "Give it to Garrett."
Andrew was speechless. Garrett truly was a scapegoat. First, he took the blame for Nick Fury, and now he was taking the blame for Carter.
"You decide."
Andrew shook his head, sent Carter out of the illusion, and at the same time, the teleportation stone disappeared.
Andrew sighed, "Not only villains, but even Superheroes are rushing to send me souls. Earthlings are really too friendly. I'm so moved I could cry."
…
On the abandoned oil tanker, Killian was unleashing his demonic power, forcing Steve, Tony, and the other Superheroes to dodge with difficulty, not daring to be distracted for a moment.
The reason was simple: once distracted, Death was certain.
At the same time, Obadiah and the Extremis Warriors attacked frantically, and many Agents died tragically.
"fuck, why do I always encounter such dangerous things?"
Garrett cursed, but he didn't feel much fear, completely unlike his previous fear of Death.
Garrett already knew what Hell looked like, and had even found a job and bought a house in Hell in advance. In this situation, what was there to fear about Death? Dying meant going to Hell to enjoy life.
Just then, a teleportation stone appeared out of thin air in Garrett's hand, and then information about the teleportation stone flooded into his mind—that was all, it didn't say where the teleportation stone came from.
"fuck, do they really think I'm a scapegoat?"
Garrett wasn't stupid and quickly guessed some clues. He hesitated for a moment, then hid to the side and called Nick Fury—not to ask Nick Fury to share the blame, that bastard would definitely not help him take the blame, but to tell him about it, so he wouldn't suspect him afterward.
That bastard Nick Fury was more cunning than a sieve.
