Chapter 134 – I Want a Quinjet

Back at the agency, Lucas placed his newest trophy into the display case—a small section of Blackheart’s horn.

The case was bound with special seals.

Anything placed inside would lose all energy and become nothing more than an ordinary object.

Only then did Lucas return to his apartment and collapse into bed, sleeping straight through to midday.

He woke up starving.

After washing up, he wandered lazily back to the agency.

Before he could even war...

Chapter 133 – Mephisto Reveals Himself

The tornado raged for more than ten breaths before finally losing strength.

Blackheart had long been carried high into the air.

When the storm dispersed, his massive body dropped like a meteor.

He crashed to the ground with a thunderous impact.

Deep, bone-revealing wounds covered him.

Lava-colored blood oozed from each gash, and his demonic form looked barely alive.

Lucas raised a hand—

the Ultimate Divine Blade flew back into his palm.

Chapter 132 – Battle With Blackheart

Johnny leapt upward, catching Roxanne in his arms.

At the same time, Blackheart appeared mid-air, reaching for the Contract.

But just as his claws were about to close around it—

a longsword suddenly swept in from the side and knocked the contract away.

Blackheart grabbed nothing but air.

Lucas caught the flying parchment, flipped smoothly in mid-air, and landed lightly.

“Demons are demons—never bring a brain.”

He turned his hand over, a...

Chapter 131 – San Venganza

From within the cloud of smoke created by the explosions, a blazing chain suddenly whipped out—

striking the Wind Demon—

But it passed straight through his body without leaving the slightest mark.

“Hahahahaha!

Your attacks are useless against me, Ghost Rider!”

The Wind Demon hovered in the air, laughing wildly.

“Today is the day you die.

Your little girlfriend won’t be so lucky. Her soul will become food for Hell—nourishment for t...

Chapter 130 – The Previous Ghost Rider

But after several generations, the church had changed hands.

The new priest knew nothing about the secret—

and even renovated the entire building.

The Contract of San Venganza was exposed once again.

Its presence resurfaced—

and Mephisto sensed it immediately.

The old Ghost Rider retrieved it before Mephisto could arrive, hiding it inside his shovel—the one used for digging graves.

Protective exorcism sigils etched into the metal blocked ...

Chapter 129 – When Sand Meets Lightning

“Do you know what sand turns into when it’s struck by lightning?”

Lucas looked at the Earth Demon, now only a step away, his voice calm and unhurried.

“It becomes… glass.”

RUMBLE—

A blinding flash erupted out of nowhere.

Several bolts of violet lightning materialized in front of the Earth Demon, crashing straight into the arm he had swung toward Lucas.

In an instant, the demon’s arm turned pitch-black—

then began to crystalliz...

“Captain, you’re still extremely weak. You need to rest.”

The nurse stepped forward, reaching out to steady Steve.

But before she could touch him, Steve suddenly lunged—

his hand shot out, clamping around the nurse’s throat as he lifted her clean off the ground.

“Who are you?

Where am I?”

His eyes were icy cold as his grip tightened.

The nurse slapped frantically at his arm, but Steve’s hand was like a steel vise—immovable, un...

Chapter 127 – Blackheart

After hanging up, Lucas sent Tony the measurements for Skye’s arm bracers.

Then he scooped up the moogle in his arms and gave it a vigorous rub.

“Lucky I’ve still got you to keep me company.”

“Kupo~”

The moogle let out a lazy chirp, rolled over, and nudged Lucas to scratch the other side.

Late that night, Lucas slept soundly.

Outside the window, a streak of black smoke flashed past.

Lucas didn’t sense a thing—

Chapter 126 – About Wakanda

“That guy is such a crook.

Can’t say I’m a fan.”

Tony muttered as he watched Ulysses Klaue’s speedboat shrink into the distance.

“Smuggling contraband out of Wakanda?

That’s basically treason. Hardly counts as a ‘good person.’”

Lucas shrugged. Klaue didn’t inspire any particular opinion—good or bad.

“Wakanda?

You’re telling me vibranium comes from that Wakanda?

The poor African country?”

Tony sounded ge...

Chapter 125 – Ulysses Klaue

“Since none of you are willing to cooperate…

you’ll all become my food.”

With a muffled boom, black energy sealed the bar’s entrance.

Moments later, screams filled the room—mixed with chewing, tearing, and the wet spray of blood.

Not long after, Blackheart strolled out of the bar looking thoroughly satisfied.

He chose a random direction and wandered off leisurely.

The next day, Lucas was once again spacing out in his office.

Chapter 124 – Attempting to Control the Spirit of Vengeance

Lucas stepped forward and pinned the Ghost Rider to the ground with one foot.

Purple lightning burst from his body, instantly spreading across the Rider’s entire frame.

“Wanda.”

Wanda moved without hesitation, Chaos Magic gathering at her fingertips.

She tapped the Ghost Rider lightly on the forehead.

In an instant, Chaos Magic poured down like a flood of liquid light.

Wherever it flowed, Hellfire recoiled and vanished.

Within mere breath...

Chapter 123 – Johnny Regains His Memory

“You… know me?”

Wanda was stunned.

She was certain she’d never seen the woman before—so how could this person recognize her?

The Ancient One calmly seated herself on the sofa, her gaze drifting toward Johnny, who was still lost in the flood of returning memories.

Her brows knitted slightly.

“The Spirit of Vengeance… No wonder I sensed a burst of dark energy just now.

So it was that old fool Mephisto.”

The moment she laid eyes on...

Chapter 122 – Mephisto

Lucas wasn’t wrong.

Chaos Magic was one of the three Primordial Forces of the Marvel universe, the source of all dark magic.

As the ruler of Hell, Mephisto’s power naturally belonged to that category—

and all of it ultimately traced back to Chaos Energy.

“Can you break the seal?”

Lucas asked.

Wanda nodded.

“I can.”

“Johnny, are you ready? Removing this seal might trigger… unpredictable reactions. You need to brace yourse...

Chapter 121 – Johnny Blaze

Even so, watching that pile of bones suddenly revive and ignite still left Skye and Wanda shaken. They had seen Lucas shoot Ghost Rider’s skull apart—shattered it completely—yet the thing had grown a new one right before their eyes.

It was straight out of a horror movie.

Just then, Lucas’s phone rang. It was Tony.

“Yo—what’s up, Tony?”

“I’ve got news about vibranium.”

Lucas instantly perked up.

“What news? Tell me.”

Chapter 120 – Ghost Rider

“You… are guilty…”

The flaming skeleton pointed at him—

then revved his motorcycle and charged straight toward the apartment.

“Damn it— I almost forgot this guy’s a complete maniac.”

Lucas instantly ducked back inside and slammed the window shut.

With the barrier active, Ghost Rider wasn’t getting in.

As expected, the Moogle inside the office lazily waved its staff, renewing the barrier—

then promptly fell back asleep.

Chapter 119 – The Hellfire Kid

“Lightning Storm!”

Lucas uttered a low chant.

Purple lightning instantly wrapped around the staff in his hand.

He swung it toward Vanko.

BOOOOOM—

Thunder roared.

A lightning bolt as thick as a water barrel dropped from the sky, striking Vanko directly on the head.

The violet thunder carried a destructive force capable of obliterating all things.

It tore through Vanko’s armor and body without restraint...

Bobbi unlocked her hotel room door.

Inside, just as expected, sat a Black man calmly cutting into a steak.

Nick Fury glanced up when she shut the door. “Bobbi. The target didn’t follow you up?”

“Nope,” she said, tossing her coat onto the bed and kicking off her shoes with zero grace. Barefoot, she padded across the carpet. “He said he had to go home and feed his cat.”

Fury stabbed a piece of steak. “Hope you don’t mi...

Chapter 118 – Duel with Whiplash

“Tony, I’m here!”

A violent burst of machine-gun fire tore through the air.

Rhodey charged in with both arms raised, unleashing a storm of bullets at Vanko’s mech as if ammo cost nothing.

But despite the noise, the effect was little more than leaving shallow dents—nowhere near enough to break through the armor.

Rhodey landed beside Tony.

Just as Tony lifted his hand to fire a repulsor blast, Rhodey held out an arm to stop him.

“It’s definitely not me!

If it were, would we still be running for our lives?” Tony shouted back.

He could tell at a glance that the drone had fallen because its electronics had short-circuited.

But it wasn’t raining, and no one had touched the drone.

Short-circuit? Now?

What was this, a defective product?

Before the two could process it, another drone jittered violently and dropped from the sky in the exact same way.

Seeing only the tops of the HOLLYWOOD letters clearly wasn’t enough for Bobbi.

“Is there a way down?” she asked, itching for more.

Henry scanned the perimeter and pointed. “Last time I came, someone had cut a hole in the fence. Should be over there. Worst case, we climb.”

“Let’s go!” she said, practically marching already.

They found the hole quickly enough and slipped through one after the other.

Griffith Observatory wasn’t just a famous Los Angeles landmark — it was the unofficial capital of dates.

Tourists came. Locals came. Couples came. Teenagers came.

And since most schools were still on winter break, the place was crowded enough to feel like a festival.

Henry and Bobbi stood on the viewing deck in the sharp afternoon sun. Bobbi had taken off her knit hat because of the heat, letting the ocean breeze lift her golden waves. Her hair caugh...

Inside Wanda’s protective barrier, Skye froze for half a second.

Skye nearly choked.

Lucas’s armor was made of advanced alloys, yes—but it wasn’t vibranium.

No matter how tough it was, it couldn’t withstand endless streams of high-caliber ammo.

Tony glanced at Rhodey’s War Machine and snorted.

“Did you mount an entire weapons depot on that thing? Zero aesthetics. Absolutely hideous.”

Even now, he still had the mood to mock Rhodey.

Rhodey, however, was in no mood for jokes.

“So you came to Hollywood to see whether you should switch careers and become a star? I can guarantee your odds would be excellent.” Henry took a sip of coffee as he said it.

“Haha, you’re not the first to tell me that,” Bobbi said, eyes glinting with amusement. “People always say brains don’t have an expiration date, but beauty does. If I don’t cash in now and leave behind my most glamorous memories, I’ll regret it later.”

Officially, the Mark II suit had been “handed over to the military.”

In reality, Tony had hard-coded so many security layers into it that only one person could operate it—Colonel Rhodes. The whole “for the military” thing was just for show.

Rhodey raised his arm in salute, and all the automated suits behind him did the same in perfect unison.

The audience went wild.

They had assumed Hammer’s showcase would be nothing more than immobile display models...

Maybe it was just a coincidence — same name, same face. The world couldn’t possibly line up coincidences that neatly.

And yet, the moment Henry saw her, he couldn’t help thinking: Oh, hell.

Long, golden waves of hair framed a face too symmetrical to be real. Her eyes were a piercing sky-blue, her body athletic and flawlessly proportioned — lean muscle wrapped in soft curves. Every line of her was the text...

A new year had arrived, and Henry was doing his best to waste it properly.

He sprawled across his couch, basking in the weak winter sunlight streaming through the window, absolutely unmotivated to do anything productive.

On the other side of the room, little Katie — male little Katie, for the record — had long since stopped being “little.”

Half a year of proper feeding had doubled his size. What had once fit along Henry’s forearm now stretched ...

Nick Fury narrowed his eye thoughtfully. The name stirred a memory—back when he first joined S.H.I.E.L.D., he had studied Hydra’s classified files. One of their key leaders was indeed named Strucker.

Whether he actually needed the bird or just wanted to test Hammer’s patience was anyone’s guess.
