Chapter 93 – The Winter Soldier

It was 3 a.m.—the hour when most people slept the deepest, and when the shadows worked most freely.

A heavily armed strike team arrived at their destination: an ordinary-looking apartment building.

Their target—Lucas’s apartment.

“The target is inside. Move in.”

At the captain’s command, the squad immediately divided into groups. A sniper took position on the rooftop opposite the building, rifle trained on the windows, rea...

Chapter 240 — The Night of Feeding the Tiger

Just before entering the lab, Henry didn’t forget about the hungry little tiger in his arms. He set Katie down, and the moment her paws touched the sand of this new, pitch-dark, barren world, the small striped creature began exploring curiously—momentarily forgetting that her stomach was still empty.

…Or perhaps, driven purely by instinct, the little one was already sniffing around for something edible.

Henry still couldn’t fully read what went ...

Chapter 92 – The Mysterious Squad

When Lucas suddenly lost control, General Ross instantly realized something was wrong.

Yet, surrounded by dozens of armed soldiers and S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, he still felt untouchable.

He was convinced that Lucas wouldn’t dare attack a U.S. general—not unless he wanted to be hunted down by the entire military-industrial complex.

After all, killing an American general was no small matter. No matter how powerful Lucas was, he couldn’t withstand the wra...

Chapter 91 – Ross Makes His Move

BOOM—BOOM—BOOM!

Meteor after meteor slammed into the ground, each impact fiercer than the last. Explosions roared through Chinatown, shaking the earth itself. The streets were left cratered and broken, dozens of pits gouged into the ground, each over three meters wide.

The Hulk’s massive body had long since vanished beneath the blinding firestorms and raging shockwaves. The ground trembled, the air screamed, and the searing heat made the world fee...

Chapter 239 — Sheephole Valley

“Sheephole Valley” was actually just a literal translation — the place’s full name was Sheephole Valley Wilderness.

Located east of Los Angeles, right next to the northern border of Joshua Tree National Park, the area was a mix of basins and mountains — part of the Mojave Desert.

In ancient times, it had been a hunting ground for Native Americans. Scattered granite boulders formed natural shelters from the sun, and wild bighorn sheep once roamed amon...

Chapter 238 — A Way of Saying Hello

Back at his rented apartment, Henry changed out of his Tinkerer ’s outfit and began tallying up the night’s gains and losses.

The losses weren’t much — mostly the needles he’d used on Andrew Saxon. Most of them were still stuck in that fat old man, and the rest would have to be melted down and reforged. Just boiling them for sterilization wouldn’t pass any hygiene standards anyway.

Then came the profit check — the surgical fee. Although he’d th...

Chapter 90 – The Dust Settles

“Whoa—Mr. Stark! Iron Man! You’re my idol! Can I get an autograph?”

Peter’s excitement was off the charts the moment he saw Tony—so much so that he almost threw the car he was still holding.

“Hey—hey! Easy there, kid! You’re holding a car, remember? I’d rather not die flattened under my own fan.”

Tony quickly backed up, hands raised in alarm.

“It’s like this, Mr. Stark! I was planning to smash this guy...

Chapter 89 – All-Out Battle

“Help evacuate the civilians. When Natasha gets here, tell her to contact the one-eyed bastard immediately—and make sure this brain-dead idiot doesn’t get in the way.”

Lucas pointed straight at General Ross. The implication was obvious.

Ross’s face darkened, his temper about to explode—until Lucas raised his gun and pressed the barrel directly to his forehead.

“Say one more word,” Lucas said, his tone flat and cold, “and I’ll blow your head off.”...

Chapter 237 — The FBI Makes Its Move

At the FBI’s Los Angeles field office, several agents were busy consolidating arrest reports and preparing indictments for everyone taken into custody.

Andrew Saxon’s crime syndicate was a complete network — from top to bottom, every single member had a record. The minor ones were wanted for assault or racketeering, the major ones for murder and arson. There wasn’t a clean soul among them.

Some could be flipped to serve as informants, turned int...

Chapter 417 — In Superman’s Hometown: Gaining Control of His Weakness

> “Homelander… you’re leaving?”

Catwoman’s voice trembled faintly, the usual confidence in her tone replaced by something softer—something almost fragile.

She had expected this moment for weeks, maybe even months, ever since she first realized the kind of man Alex was.

A storm could never stay confined within one city forever.

And yet, when the moment finally came, the reality of it hit her harder than she had imagined....

Chapter 88 – Hulk

BOOM!

Abomination shot forward like a cannonball, his massive fist slamming toward the Hulk.

Hulk caught the blow mid-swing, muscles bulging like steel cables, and countered with a roar and his own punch.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Each strike was an explosion, raw power against raw power—no defense, no hesitation—just two raging beasts unleashing everything they had.

Hovering above, Tony could only stare, stunne...

“Hmm? A big green guy?”

“That’s right,” Tony said, leaning back casually. “From what I saw, about three or four meters tall. The army even ordered a batch of high-frequency sonic cannons from Stark Industries to catch him—but he still got away in the end.”

Lucas frowned. So the Hulk has appeared already.

He immediately had Skye pull up that morning’s news. Sure enough, the footage showed Hulk rampaging across the universit...

Chapter 236 — A Greedy Demand

Gunfire echoed intermittently in the distance. For Americans, that sound might not be “normal,” but it wasn’t exactly shocking either.

Still, just because they were used to it didn’t mean they weren’t afraid. Maybe it was because they knew how deadly guns were that they understood the most important rule — get away from a shootout as fast as possible.

The route the Tinkerer chose wound through the dimly lit warehouse district. A few stretche...

Chapter 235 — The Surgery Finally Completed

Of course, the Tinkerer had no intention of getting himself dragged along to the LAPD precinct—or worse, the FBI’s Los Angeles field office. Practicing medicine without a license was a crime anywhere in the world. Fines were the lightest consequence; prison time was far more likely.

But neither did he want to finish the surgery too quickly and give the fat white boss a chance to escape. Completing the procedure perfectly, without any flaw or trace of hesitation, was ch...

Doctor Poison’s voice cracked through the smoky air, shrill with fury and dawning comprehension.

In that split second, her mind pieced the puzzle together—the annihilated fighter fleet, the collapsing sky, the thunderous shockwaves that had torn her formation apart. Every sign pointed to one impossible conclusion.

Her eyes, dark and feverish with hatred, locked onto the man floating effortlessly b...

Chapter 415 — A Rich Harvest, Power Greatly Enhanced

There was no helping it.

To keep Queen Hippolyta from interfering again, Alex had simply knocked her out cold with a single punch. He hadn’t wanted to, but she’d left him no choice. The woman was as stubborn as she was regal—if she stayed on her feet, she would have kept coming at him without pause, her blade flashing again and again until one of them fell.

And honestly, that would’ve been seriously annoying.

The pounding on the door was so loud it woke the neighbor — Skye — from next door.

“You can’t wake up someone who’s pretending to sleep, Mr. Stark,” she sighed, walking over with a key in hand.

She unlocked Lucas’s door and pushed it open. “When he’s asleep, not even the sky falling will wake him up. He says he’s sealed by the blanket, and we just have to wait until the seal lifts itself.”

Skye sounded helpless — as ...

Chapter 85 – Targeted

In a shadowed corner where no one was watching, a man in a black suit quietly adjusted his tactical glasses — the same model used by Coulson. Through the lens, every frame of Lucas summoning the Zodiac Meteor and its fiery descent was perfectly recorded.

Far away, in a heavily fortified stronghold buried in endless snow, a man wearing a monocle sat motionless before a massive screen. The cold blue light of the video flickered across his face as he stared, entranced.

Chapter 234 — Is Your Name Really That Famous?

While waiting for the call to connect, the Tinkerer didn’t continue with the surgery. Instead, he casually asked, “By the way, sir, I still don’t know your name.”

Old White growled through clenched teeth, “Andrew Saxon. Remember that name well.”

The Tinkerer tilted his head. “That name supposed to be famous? People hear it and instantly know who you are?”

“Go ahead and try it,” Saxon said with a rare trace of pride. “Ask any ...

None of them got back up.

Though Deacon Frost’s neck had fully regenerated, the rest of his mangled body still hadn’t healed completely — and Lucas saw that weakness instantly.

“What’s the matter, almighty Blood God?” Lucas sneered, turning toward Frost with a mocking glint in his eyes. “Not healing so fast anymore, huh?”

Then he tilted his head slightly. “Don’t you feel… something new on your back?”

At that, Frost stiffened. He glanced over ...

Chapter 83 – Duel with the Blood God

As the rubble crashed down, the ancient stone coffin split open. Inside lay Blade—his body shriveled and pale, every drop of blood drained away, his life stolen to feed the newborn Blood God.

Frank reacted instantly, rushing forward to catch him before he collapsed. Blade’s arms and legs were riddled with open wounds that still oozed dark blood, showing no sign of healing.

Chapter 233 — Payment in Hand

The Tinkerer’s words made every one of Old White’s men hesitate.

If nobody else had been there, maybe things would’ve been different. But with a crowd watching, whoever made a move would be handing the others a golden opportunity to avenge their boss and, in the process, climb into his place. So nobody dared act.

Even enraged, Old White suddenly understood his predicament. He glared at the other medical staff and cursed, “Fuck! Damn it! Goddamn ...

At that same moment, an arrow tore through the night sky and buried itself into a cluster of vampires. The shaft exploded midair, bursting into a cloud of shimmering silver dust that corroded everything it touched. Within seconds, every vampire nearby clutched their throats and disintegrated into ash.

Up on the hillside, Barton stood firm, longbow in hand. He drew another arrow from the quiver strapped across his back, nocked it smoothly, and released. Each shot str...

As Skye vaulted over the wall behind him, the trio regrouped and began working their way through the manor grounds toward the looming stone tower.
