Although Dr. Banner felt this way in his heart, he still struggled to suppress the emergence of the Hulk.
You know, before the Avengers came together, Banner had an extraordinary ability to resist the Hulk.
Seeing that Banner remained silent, the bearded man nodded and then turned toward Qin Xiao.
He still trusted Qin Xiao—after all, Qin Xiao looked thin and gentle.
I was terrified when I pointed the gun at him.
"Now, tell me carefully how you two know each other. What did he say to you? Give me every detail."
The bearded man wanted to confirm whether it was Banner who had rescued Tony Stark during the interlude.
After all, Tony Stark had already escaped. If they could capture the people responsible, perhaps they could leverage them for some advantage.
He had coveted the bald man's advanced weaponry for a long time.
For this reason, he had softened his tone considerably while talking to Qin Xiao.
"Uh… can you put the gun down first?"
Qin Xiao said cautiously, his face full of fear.
"Of course, as long as you—"
The bearded man had just moved the gun slightly, barely halfway.
In an instant, Qin Xiao's eyes changed. His right hand shot out like lightning.
He grabbed the bearded man's gun hand and pressed his thumb hard on the trigger.
In a flash, the gun was in Qin Xiao's grasp.
He had taken the leader hostage directly.
"Everyone, step back! Step back!"
Holding the bearded man as a human shield, Qin Xiao continuously threatened the surrounding terrorists, forcing them to vacate an open area.
At least his back was safe.
In fact, if you capture the thief first, and take the king hostage from the start, you could definitely confront Qin Xiao.
But Dr. Banner was here, and he had no chance of facing the angry Hulk in the desert.
This was the safest approach they could take.
Who would have thought the bearded man would be kidnapped?
The systematic voice in Qin Xiao's mind rang out again.
"Special mission released: Gain the trust of the Hulk and establish initial friendship. Upon completion, you will receive an upgraded Hulk mutation serum."
Hulk Mutation Serum (Upgraded): Grants 30% of the Hulk's strength, defense, and self-healing abilities, while eliminating the negative effects of transformation, loss of reason, and rage.
PS: It grants 30% of the Hulk's power with minimal side effects. It allows the host to build monuments and commit evil without guilt. You deserve it.
"You… uncle!"
The system's words made Qin Xiao mutter a curse in his heart. "Build a monument while being a… what?"
"You're the jerk! Your whole family's a jerk!"
"First, I don't have an uncle or any family. Master, there's no need to be so unreasonable and angry. Just say if you want it or not! Say it out loud—do you want it?"
Damn, the system was messing with him.
But yes! Of course!
If this was the reward, the risk was absolutely worth it.
This was the true law of opportunity!
This special mission directly caused Qin Xiao to change his strategy.
Originally, he only planned to play a trick on Dr. Banner and escape safely.
But now, the plan had changed.
"Wow! Your acting is amazing—you saved Tony Stark!"
The bearded man also assumed Banner and Qin Xiao were working together.
"But this isn't America. Even if you catch me, you won't get out of this desert. We are freedom fighters—we are not afraid to die!"
The bearded man's voice was full of indignation.
"Really?"
Qin Xiao smiled.
He looked at Dr. Banner, who had now stood beside him, and said calmly:
"If you're not afraid of death… are you afraid of the green monster that can turn you into mince with a single punch?"
"The green monster?"
"How do you know?"
The bearded man and Banner almost spoke at the same time.
Qin Xiao ignored the bearded man and turned to Banner, his expression serious.
"Doctor, I can help you deal with the military harassment. But right now, I need that big green man to come out!"
"Boom!"
As soon as Qin Xiao finished speaking, he didn't hesitate—he fired a shot directly at Dr. Banner's chest.
"You…"
Banner's face was full of disbelief.
He gasped out a single word and slowly fell backward to the ground.
What did you do? Did you just shoot your partner?
The bearded man looked stunned.
But Qin Xiao had no time to explain.
He whispered in Banner's ear: "You said you're not afraid of death. So… good luck."
Then Qin Xiao pushed the bearded man toward a toppled flag.
He turned and ran.
A plume of dust and smoke rose ten, twenty meters, and the surrounding terrorists reacted.
Two people quickly lifted the bearded man, while others trained their guns on Qin Xiao in the distance.
But he had no time to shoot.
A beastly roar rang out.
"ROAAAR!!!"
The "corpse" on the ground had suddenly transformed into a massive green monster.
It rose from the ground, over two meters tall.
Its muscles looked harder than steel.
In its hand, it held the bearded man's head.
The once tall, imposing bearded man now looked like a helpless doll in someone's hand.
With an earth-shaking roar, the Hulk slammed the man into a nearby off-road vehicle.
The hood of the car crumpled under the sheer force.
Using his own flesh and strength, the Hulk smashed the car's hood and engine into scrap metal.
Seventy to eighty percent of the bearded man's bones shattered.
He was almost pulverized, barely clinging to life.
Only then did the surrounding people react.
They instinctively raised their guns and fired wildly at the monster.
Rat-a-tat-tat-tat!
Dozens of guns fired at the Hulk, bullets raining down like a storm.
But even the Hulk's skin was impervious.
Bang!
Attacked immediately upon emerging, the Hulk entered full rage mode.
A single kick sent the terrorists flying hundreds of meters.
He then lifted the disabled off-road vehicle and swung it toward the crowd.
The people hadn't even had time to disperse.
Three or four of them were flattened, turning into pulp.
The scene erupted into blood-soaked chaos, bullets flying everywhere.
Those so-called "Ten Rings" terrorists who claimed they weren't afraid of death…
They screamed in terror and scattered in all directions.
The more cowardly ones shouted "devil" and collapsed to the ground.
In the face of the furious Hulk, they didn't even have the strength to get up.
