Chapter 1445: The Fifth Whip and Natasha’s Predicament

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Ivan was quite efficient, and had more points than Mindy.

So far, however, Damon was the only one who had been able to destroy three worm battleships with his special electromagnetic cannons. Ivan had nothing to do with it.

Could killing the Chitauri soldiers boost their confidence? That was nonsense.

These soldiers were simply consumables. Now, more than 10,000 of them had come through to New York City, and there were undoubtedly still more to come.

Even if each person on both teams killed hundreds of soldiers, it wouldn’t help.

While everybody was feeling puzzled, Ivan’s monstrous and distinctive octopus suit had already started its performance.

He suddenly rushed out from where he had been hiding in a building, and appeared on a big worm battleship that had dropped dozens of meters to launch ground troops.

Relying on his four dexterous mechanical tentacles, he took an unconventional route and didn’t make much noise.

When he reached the top of the big worm, a new fifth tentacle on his armor lashed out at the big worm’s head.

This new tentacle was much thinner than the original four, but it was even longer, and was at least 50 meters long.

The moment it swung out, it instantly glowed with a blinding white light.

The extremely bright plasma whip wrapped around the big worm and cut through its head.

Then, Ivan and the big worm battleship rushed past each other. Ivan didn’t stop as a mechanical tentacle latched onto the corner of a nearby building. With a swoosh, Ivan swung behind the building and disappeared.

The big battleship charged forward ten more meters before the head cracked and suddenly fell to the ground.

Then, the rest of the body dropped to the ground and stopped moving.

The two teams who saw everything through the drone feed sucked in cold breaths of air. What the hell was that? An instant kill?

Only Luke sighed.

Ivan was indeed very good at increasing the power of the plasma whip, but he owed Luke more than ten million in material costs for the fifth whip.

That didn’t include the cost of Luke, who had been interested in the project, helping him with modifications and debugging the project.

It consumed a lot of energy, and wasn’t something that could be supported by a second generation arc reactor.

It would require several second generation arc reactors and more external components.

Even then, cutting off the head of the big worm battleship in one blow caused the power system to temporarily overload. The flight system went on strike, and Ivan could only move around with his mechanical tentacles.

There was little equipment like Ivan’s plasma whip and Damon’s electromagnetic cannon.

The others didn’t know this, and were shocked by Ivan’s sudden attack. When they read the report before, apart from being very flashy, Electric Cable didn’t seem very powerful!

At that moment, Ivan’s eyes glowed as he watched the power supply bar on his virtual screen turn from red to yellow. He chuckled. “Bruce, you probably didn’t think I would have two bigger reactors, did you?”

Based on their design, it would have taken at least 70 to 90 seconds for the energy system to recover without overloading or being damaged.

This was also to give the armor time to cool down after overheating, so that Ivan wouldn’t become a roast pig inside.

The four mechanical tentacles could tear apart the Chitauri soldiers in a 20-meter radius, which was enough to ensure his own safety. Naturally, he thought little of the common machine gun add-ons.

Ivan had simply dismantled them and secretly set up two reactor interfaces and a separate cooling system on his shoulders.

Besides, he was here to make big news. The soldiers were nothing at all; it was the big worm battleship that was the real opponent worth going all out for.

On the top of the building, Natasha and Hawkeye realized that the situation was bad.

The increasing number of Chitauri soldiers was starting to become overwhelming.

Luke taking them up under covering fire from Selina had taken a bit of time.

Now that Luke had taken off, the soldiers noticed Natasha and Hawkeye, and over ten fliers moved swiftly to besiege them.

A soldier from each flier jumped down onto the roof and surrounded Natasha, Hawkeye and Dr. Selvig.

Hawkeye drew his bow and shot three arrows at the soldiers.

Natasha killed two in a pincer attack, but she frowned. “Their equipment is very sturdy; my guns aren’t very effective.”

Hawkeye was calm and shot an arrow as he retreated.

Boom! The arrow struck the center of a dozen or so soldiers and suddenly exploded, sending most of them flying off the roof.

Natasha had rushed into the stairwell with Dr. Selvig behind her to avoid the explosion, but the violent shock wave sent dust instantly raining down on them.

Hawkeye quickly retreated and moved down to the next floor in the blink of an eye.

He had poked a hornet’s nest just now.

All of Manhattan was now like a beehive with the Chitauri fliers swarming about. The slightest sign of resistance would attract a large group of them.

So, fliers headed for the top of the building.

50 to 60 fliers gathered at the site of the explosion.

Hawkeye was an archer, not someone with a machine gun.

He couldn’t fend off these sorts of numbers.

The next moment, there was some rumbling in the hallway below him, and his face changed. “Natasha?”

Natasha immediately replied, “It’s fine, but the stairs to the next floor are blocked.”

Hawkeye frowned. “Then deal with them on this floor, and get as close to the glass windows as possible. If the situation isn’t good, we’ll exit from there.”

That being said, he knew very well that this floor wasn’t suitable for mounting a defense.

The fliers had the advantage in numbers and firepower, and the situation was critical.

Sure enough, the Chitauri soldiers didn’t give them any time to catch their breaths. Dozens of them rushed out from above and below and directly attacked the trio.

Natasha and Hawkeye fought and retreated, using the rooms and the walls to try and slow down the other party as much as possible.

Natasha emptied her clips and reloaded. “Barton, ready to jump?”

Hawkeye nodded, but then said, “With the three of us, I can’t guarantee if my arrow will hold.”

Natasha said, “It’s better than being killed here. We can get those suits to pick us up.”

Hawkeye didn’t hesitate when he heard that. He nocked an explosive arrow and leaned toward the full-length glass window.

Natasha tossed two electric shock devices into the hallway.

Two soldiers jolted and then collapsed.

Their compatriots, however, didn’t hesitate to go around them and continue the pursuit.

Natasha quickly ran off. “Barton, get ready.”

Hawkeye raised the arrow and aimed it at the glass window.

Boom! Crash!

There was the sound of breaking glass.. Hawkeye was stumped. “What’s this?”
