Fang Leng accidentally obtained a Marvel Universe Pass and was transported to another world. To his astonishment, this was the Marvel universe—home to Iron Man, Spider-Man, Captain America, Thor, Wolverine, and a host of ambitious villains! Even more astonishing was the fact that his body had mutated during the journey: his eyes had evolved into “Superpower Conversion Eyes,” allowing him to perceive and transform the superpowers of other heroes into his own.
Chapter 625: A Mysterious Escape “Very well, Commander Taylor. You and your forces hold the line for now. I’ll immediately dispatch the nearest units to provide reinforcements. Once reinforcements arrive, you’ll join forces to take down the enemy—especially Fang Leng. Bring him back alive or dead!” Murdoch’s tone over the comm suddenly turned low and sharp. “Mission accomplished, Leader.” Commander Taylor made a solemn pledge. After a brief silence, Murdoch’s voice rang out again over the comm: “One more thing. Aside from dealing with Fang Leng, you must ensure the safety of the Tower of the End of the Mind. Remember, never underestimate the enemy.” “Understood, sir,” Commander Taylor replied in a tone of loyalty. “Commander, I wish you success.” It was rare for Murdoch to offer such words of encouragement to his subordinates. With that, the communication ended. Commander Taylor turned to the other staff officers and aides around him, his face unable to hide his delight. This key field commander from Pioneer Technologies addressed the other staff officers and aides in a tone brimming with determination and enthusiasm: “All right, Leader Murdoch will be arriving to provide support shortly. Until then, we must hold the Tower of Mind’s End on this Devil’s Island at all costs. And we must strike at those three enemies as much as possible. Be especially wary of that Fang Leng. Is that clear?” “Understood, Commander,” the staff officers and aides replied in unison. Commander Taylor nodded. “Alright, while we hold this Demon Island at all costs, we’ll use our current forces to strike at Fang Leng and the other two enemies as appropriate. Since they dared to attack the San Francisco area, we’ll give them a taste of their own medicine.” Commander Taylor was also brimming with confidence in his ability to eliminate Fang Leng. Commander Taylor, along with his staff officers and aides, then continued directing his limited forces to prepare for an attack on Fang Leng and his group. In addition to the elite troops guarding Devil’s Island, Commander Taylor had considerable forces stationed in the San Francisco city center and its outskirts. He immediately ordered the Pioneer Technology elite troops in the San Francisco area to launch a full-scale eradication operation against Fang Leng and his two companions. The Pioneer Technology forces stationed in San Francisco launched their assault on Fang Leng and his group. In the city and its outskirts, infantry, armored units, and aerial forces patrolling the surrounding area all joined the battle. Fang Leng, Banner, and Logan also noticed that another large contingent of Pioneer Technology forces was advancing toward them. These forces included armored units, infantry, helicopters, and various advanced equipment. This time, in addition to the half-human mammoth armored soldiers, another elite unit of Pioneer Technology had appeared: the cryogenic armored soldiers. It seemed Pioneer Technology was determined to strike hard. Fang Leng, Logan, and Banner were undaunted by these enemies and fought bravely. In the sky, the Vanguard Technology armed helicopters unleashed heavy firepower against the trio. Since Fang Leng possessed the ability to fly, he naturally took on the role of countering the helicopters. “Boom! The helicopters’ missiles and rockets unleashed a barrage of fire toward the trio’s location. Fang Leng soared into the air, slicing through the air currents with blinding speed as he flew toward one of the armed helicopters, which was soaring over 300 meters high. This armed helicopter, along with the other Pioneer Technology helicopters, fired missiles and rockets relentlessly at Fang Leng. As he climbed, Fang Leng deftly dodged left and right. Missiles and rockets whizzed past him at regular intervals. As he closed in on the armed helicopter with increasing speed, Fang Leng could even see the cold sweat of fear on the pilot’s face. “Clang!” Fang Leng’s powerful punch, fueled by his physical strength and the speed generated by flight, drove him straight through the armed helicopter’s cockpit, emerging from the rear of the fuselage through the front of the nose. That single blow took down the Pioneer Technology armed helicopter, which tumbled and crashed into the city below. After taking out the armed helicopter, Fang Leng quickly banked and flew straight toward another armed helicopter. The pilot of this armed helicopter was panicking. After all, given Fang Leng’s speed and maneuverability, even a fighter jet would struggle to keep up—let alone an armed helicopter designed primarily for ground attack. “Whoosh! The pilot fired a barrage of deadly missiles and rockets from the helicopter. But he couldn’t stop Fang Leng. Fang Leng flew in rapid turns and spirals, making it difficult for the attack helicopter to hit him. Moreover, even though the missiles had tracking capabilities, they couldn’t match Fang Leng’s speed and agility. “Clang!” This time, Fang Leng didn’t target the cockpit; instead, he delivered a fierce blow directly to the main rotor shaft on top of the armed helicopter. The impact nearly caused the rotor shaft to detach from the helicopter’s fuselage. The armed helicopter plummeted to the ground like a headless fly. In this manner, relying on his lightning-fast flight speed and formidable maneuverability, Fang Leng shot down the third, fourth, and even the fifth Pioneer Technology armed helicopters in quick succession. With only the sixth one remaining, Fang Leng continued to charge toward it at high speed, but at the critical moment of closing in on his target, he suddenly slowed down drastically and executed a sharp turn to circle around to the side of the armed helicopter. Fang Leng flew up to the right side of the helicopter and delivered a powerful punch straight into its cabin door. Smashing the door open, Fang Leng leaped into the helicopter’s cockpit. Facing the startled Pioneer Tech pilot, Fang Leng said nothing; he simply grabbed him and hurled him out of the cockpit. Fang Leng then took the pilot’s seat and began to quickly survey everything inside the cockpit. In fact, whether it was individual weapons like firearms, aircraft, or armored vehicles, Pioneer Technology’s arsenal, while appearing bizarre and distinctly sci-fi, was still fundamentally human-made—merely far more advanced. After a brief test run, Fang Leng had essentially mastered the controls of this Pioneer Technology armed helicopter. Manipulating the control stick, Fang Leng aimed the helicopter’s weapon systems at several targets on the ground. The reason for seizing this armed helicopter was simple: to use it to attack the Pioneer Technology ground forces below. Using Pioneer Tech’s own weapons to strike against Pioneer Tech—how ironic. Murdoch had successfully served as Fang Leng’s transport captain.
