Unlimited Rewards in Mei Man

Chapter 246 The Vanguard of Thanos

When people are bored, they tend to do impulsive things.

For example, impulse shopping.

Russell bought the whole building on impulse just because the past month had been a little boring.

Although it cost him a lot of money, for him now, money is just a number.

After leaving the headquarters of Octopus Monster Company, he went directly to Zhenglian headquarters.

Now he is living a very monotonous life of three points and one line.

Apartment, Zhenglian Headquarters, Octopus Headquarters.

Apart from these three places, he has rarely been seen in other places recently.

It's not because he's starting to be like the Hulk, but because he really doesn't have much to do right now.

Although he bears the name of the head of the Zhenglian and the superhero serum, he hasn't earned his reputation outside for a long time.

Except for Peter and Gwen, the rest of Zhenglian basically don't perform heroic activities very much now.

After arriving at Zhenglian headquarters, Russell first went to the bedroom of the levitating cloak, and played a game online with the levitating cloak.

After playing the game with the levitating cloak, he came to Hulk's bedroom, pulled Hulk who was drinking in the bedroom to the training ground, and checked Hulk's recent progress.

The current Hulk is completely different from when he first joined Zhenglian.

Swords, guns and sticks, fists and feet!

Although Hulk is not proficient in all eighteen martial arts now, he basically plays them well.

Some cold weapons, such as axes, hammers, meteor hammers, etc., Hulk is better than Russell.

Russell originally just planned to test Hulk's recent learning achievements, and pass the addiction by the way.

However, after he checked Hulk's learning results, Hulk offered to learn boxing with him.

Hulk will use the newly learned Drunken Eight Immortals to compete with him who performs Wing Chun.

"you sure?"

Russell asked in surprise.

"Hulk is sure!"

After speaking, Hulk came to the edge of the training ground and poured the whiskey he had prepared into his mouth.

After drinking the entire barrel of whiskey in one go, Hulk burped and returned to Russell with the smell of alcohol all over his body.

Afterwards, his figure staggered into a posture of holding a cup fist.

Legs gossip, drunk eyes hazy, stumbling, swaying.

Just looking at his appearance, Hulk is no different from a real drunk now.

However, compared with a real drunk, Hulk is obviously not drunk now, and his fist is not drunk.

The seemingly swaying, swaying steps are actually the unique movement of the drunken immortals.

"Since you want to play, then I will play with you."

As soon as the words fell, Russell made a Wing Chun gesture.

Unlike other boxing techniques, Wing Chun's starting style is more arbitrary.

For example, Ye Wen, the master of Wing Chun, his starting gesture is the standard "asking gesture".

The questioning gesture does not refer to Ip Man's questioning, but Wing Chun's asking hand.

The left hand asks the hand, the right hand folds!
This is Wing Chun's standard starting and asking gestures.

What Russell is using now is the relatively small "Bangfu style".

The left hand is in the palm of the hand, the right hand is in the palm of the hand!

The advantage of using the questioning hand is that you can control the distance before the hands touch the body. There are many changes in moves, and it is easy to link up with Japanese punches and hit a series of fast attacks like machine guns.

As for the "Bang Fu stance" in which the arms are held together with the resting hands, especially Russell's "lower shoulders and resting hands", there are not as many changes as the asking hands, and the distance between the two sides cannot be controlled.

But the advantage is that the low bladder of the left hand can be quickly transformed into a dart player, which is more aggressive.

These two starting moves have their own advantages and disadvantages. It is hard to say who is stronger and who is weaker. It is purely a matter of personal preference.

After seeing Russell's "Bangfu" starting gesture, Hulk, who was already dizzy on the surface, regained his energy.

Although Hulk doesn't like Wing Chun very much, he is no stranger to Wing Chun.

Looking at Russell's starting move, he knew that Russell would not choose pure defense.

After staggering and looking at Russell with drunken eyes, Hulk chose to take the initiative to attack.

I saw Hulk's legs suddenly exerted force, and the whole person fell forward and rolled, hitting Russell like a rolling meatball chariot.

Lu Dongbin, drunk can carry a huge pot!
Once in front of Russell, Hulk's right hand went from bottom to top, attacking Russell as if lifting a flagon.

Hulk's right hand is menacing, but Russell has no intention of backing down at all.

The left shoulder exerted force, and the right arm pushed out and pressed down. The elbow of the right hand directly hit Hulk's right hand, forcibly interrupting Hulk's follow-up attack.

Bang!
The dull impact sounded like a grenade explosion.

Hulk, who was easily defused by Russell, did not hesitate at all. He flickered and attacked Russell again.

Han Zhongli, drunk step Baochengdouxinding!
Hulk's two hands, which were thicker than Russell's thighs, suddenly embraced, as if he wanted to hug Russell by the waist like a wine cellar.

Find the bridge!

Turn the horse sideways right hand!
When Hulk came to embrace him, Russell turned slightly to the left, turning into a posture of clamping sheep and horses on the left side.

At the same time, the right elbow is thrown out, changing into a high-armed hand, with the palm facing outwards, the right upper arm and the upper body are kept at right angles, and the left hand is changed into a palm guard close to the right elbow.

Afterwards, he took a slight step forward, and pushed forward with his right elbow like a fired cannonball.

Russell would not let Hulk's big hand hug him, and decisively chose to attack against attack.

Hulk's hands hadn't completed the encirclement yet, and Russell, who had taken half a step, came to Hulk's arms as if taking the initiative to fall, and the elbow of his right hand hit Hulk's chest heavily.

Want to use a douchebag on me!
Don't look down on people too much!
Just like Lu Dongbin's ability to lift a pot when he was drunk just now, Hulk's Han Zhong Li Zuibu Baocheng Douxinding has no chance to complete his display.

After being hit in the chest by Russell's right elbow, even the Hulk with an astonishing size was inevitably sent flying a distance of five or six meters.

Russell does not bully Hulk with the super power given by Kryptonian physique, but controls his power to a level similar to that of Hulk.

After hitting Hulk with an elbow, Russell didn't give Hulk a chance to breathe, and chased after him like a shadow.

Follow the horse!
Instead of using his flying ability, he used the chasing horse in Wing Chun, and he came to Hulk in the blink of an eye.

Find the bridge!

Double fisted hands, double straight palms!
Russell's hands turned into double hands, and his elbows were pulled back forcefully.

Bury your elbows, palms forward, facing Hulk, palms flush with chest, push out forcefully.

Hulk, who hadn't landed yet, received another blow from Russell.

This time, it was no longer one hand, but both hands.

Hulk, who was about to land, was hit by Russell's double palms, and flew out again.

Taking advantage of Hulk's body in the air, Russell got up again and stepped forward.

Japanese word punching, folding hands, straight palms, blocking hands punching...

Russell fully demonstrated the simplification and speed of Wing Chun, as if he was hitting a wooden dummy that would keep retreating, and his hands kept greeting Hulk.

Hulk was stunned by the lightning-fast combos.

wrong!

This is not the script I want!
After suffering dozens of punches from Russell, Hulk roared and began to resist.

Uncle Cao Guo, the immortal toasts the throat lock button!
Han Xiangzi, grabbing his wrists and holding his chest, drunk and playing the flute!
Lan Caihe, single-handed toast broke the waist!
……

Hulk who was beaten into a daze began to use the moves of the Drunken Eight Immortals indiscriminately, not according to the actual situation.

Although Hulk is now fighting back, his resistance did not have the desired effect under Russell's serial fast attack like a machine gun.

Ola Ola Ola Ola Ola...

Russell completely ignored Hulk's self-esteem now, and according to Hulk's request, he performed Wing Chun to "combat" with Hulk.

In other words, beat up the Hulk!
Under Russell's fast serial fast attack, which is almost invisible, Hulk is not usually annoyed.

It must be because I drank too much wine that I had the urge to fight Russell Wing Chun with the Eight Immortals!
Although Russell didn't know what Hulk was thinking now.

However, after hitting Hulk to the ground with a standard Japanese punch, he did not continue to attack Hulk.

Hulk is not an enemy, there is no need to fight to death.

"Your Drunken Eight Immortals need to practice more."

After closing his fist, Russell said to Hulk who fell to the ground.

"Hulk's Drunken Eight Immortals are fine, but your Wing Chun is too unreasonable."

Hulk got up from the ground and said unwillingly.

"The Drunken Eight Immortals are no weaker than Wing Chun. It is the practitioner who determines the power of boxing."

Russell reminded Hulk.

However, with Hulk's current attitude, there is a high probability that he will not recognize this sentence.

Hulk didn't speak, patted the dust on his body, and rubbed some painful parts.

Then, he walked straight towards the edge of the training ground.

After arriving at the training ground, he picked up the second wine barrel and poured tons and tons of wine into his mouth.

If people who don't know Hulk's character, after seeing Hulk's current behavior, they will probably think that Hulk will continue the second game.

But Russell knew that Hulk continued to pour alcohol into his mouth now, not because he wanted to continue the second scene, but because he just wanted to drink.

After talking to Hulk, he flew directly towards the residential area.

Although it was still several hours before dark, he did not intend to return to the headquarters of the Octopus Monster, let alone return to the apartment early.

Diana is in the apartment now, if he goes back early, there is a high probability that Diana will pull him to play flying chess again.

Although flying chess is a recreational activity that can make people physically and mentally happy, if it is not restrained, it is still very tiring.

After flying back to the living area, he came to the room in the levitating cloak, which was in name a bedroom but was actually a game room.

Although the levitating cloak can't speak, it has to be said that the levitating cloak is a very strong and competent game teammate.

Until night fell, Russell did not leave the room of the levitating cloak, playing console games with multiplayer modes with the levitating cloak.

Although Russell likes to play games, he only likes playing console games.

After night fell, Russell bid farewell to the levitation cloak and Hulk, and flew towards the apartment.

As in the previous days, when he returned to the apartment, Diana had already prepared today's dinner.

Because she doesn't have to go to work, Diana now has more time to study cooking.

Of course, there is also more time to pull Russell to play flying chess.

In the following time, Russell and Diana did what normal cohabiting couples would do, having dinner together, watching soap operas together, taking a shower and playing Ludo together.

Another mediocre day!

After playing the last flying chess game tonight with Diana, Russell lay on the comfortable soft bed, looking up at the ceiling and feeling silently.

Just when he thought the day was finally coming to an end, No. 3's voice suddenly sounded.

"Sir, there was an unexplained explosion at the Joint Dark Energy Mission Base in Tucson, Arizona, and the surveillance satellite detected a gamma energy signal that exceeded the standard."

After hearing the voice of number 3, Russell, who was about to sleep, frowned.

Unexplained Big Bang?

Although No. 3 used unknown reasons to describe the sudden explosion, Russell knew exactly what was going on.

Cosmic Cube!

To be precise, it is the portal that the Rubik's Cube was forcibly opened!

Under normal circumstances, if you want to use the Cosmic Rubik's Cube to open the portal, you must have the Cosmic Rubik's Cube.

But in addition to this conventional method, there is also a very special opening method, which is to open the portal remotely, and it is opened remotely without the Cosmic Rubik's Cube.

Loki in the movie universe used this special method of opening the door to come to the laboratory where the Rubik's Cube is located from the distant outer space.

Then, in front of Nick Fury, the Falcon man, he snatched the Rubik's Cube, abducted Hawkeye Barton, and took over the base.

Although Russell didn't know how Loki in the distant outer space did it, but he was sure of one thing, that was the portal made by the Rubik's Cube, which could be opened from both sides.

It doesn't matter whether you have the Rubik's Cube in your hand or not.

As long as the Rubik's Cube is willing to respond, it can take the initiative to open the portal to pick you up, no matter where you are in the universe.

"Continue to monitor the base. In addition, send a team of Baijue fighters to check the situation."

Russell gave instructions to No. 3.

"Okay, sir!"

Number 3 replied immediately.

After giving orders to No. 3, Russell continued to lie on the bed, not intending to get up at all.

"Aren't you going to take a look?"

Diana, who was sleeping next to Russell, drew circles on his chest with her right index finger and asked lazily.

"No, the explosion is the base of S.H.I.E.L.D. and NSNA, not Zhenglian's base. Don't worry too much about it."

Even though he said this, the picture of the Chitauri army attacking New York had already appeared in Russell's mind.

I don't know who is the vanguard of Thanos this time, is it Loki?
Russell couldn't help thinking.

But soon, he ruled out this possibility.

Judging from the current situation, the possibility of Loki serving as the vanguard of Thanos is not high.

The reason is simply because Thor wasn't exiled to Earth like in the Cinematic Universe.

Thor was not exiled to Earth by Odin, which means that the Rainbow Bridge battle between Thor and Loki will not happen.

Since the Rainbow Bridge War did not happen, Loki would naturally not wander the universe, let alone encounter Thanos.

"You seem to know what's going to happen next?"

Diana raised her head and looked at him with Kazilan's big black jewel-like eyes, a trace of doubt appeared on her flawless pretty face.

"There are some speculations, but whether it will happen or not, I can't say."

Russell and Diana have talked about similar issues before, discussing whether SHIELD's research on the Rubik's Cube will attract alien invasion.

Although he knew that there was a high probability that the Rubik's Cube would attract the Chitauri, he couldn't explain this to Diana directly.

Although he has mastered a lot of magic now, predicting the future is not something he can do now.

"If an alien invasion really happened this time, I will come forward to solve it together. I can no longer continue to work in the museum now."

Diana said seriously.

"it is good!"

Russell didn't refuse, and agreed without hesitation.

If the Battle of New York does happen, it will be just enough for Diana to appear as Wonder Woman.

In fact, Russell had already planned this matter a long time ago.

Unlike Kara and Peter, letting Diana appear on the stage is not something that can be resolved in a press conference.

As Diana's boyfriend, Russell felt obligated to arrange a grand enough and grand appearance for Diana.

More importantly, only such a major event that can attract global attention is worthy of Diana's identity and strength.

At least he thought so.

the next day.

Because the flying chess game last night was a bit intense, Russell and Diana didn't wake up until eleven o'clock in the morning.

After opening his eyes, the first thing Russell saw was Diana, who was only wearing a white shirt, showing long white legs, walking towards the bedroom.

"You're awake~"

Diana looked back at Russell, showing a sunny and charming smile.

"Ok!"

Russell replied.

Afterwards, he got up directly and followed Diana into the bathroom.

It was originally just a simple wash, but due to some special reasons, Russell and Diana stayed in the bathroom for an hour before returning to the bedroom.

After returning to the bedroom and changing their clothes, Diana went to the kitchen to prepare today's lunch.

Russell, on the other hand, came to the study and browsed through the information collected by No. 3 so far.

While drinking coffee, while looking at the pictures and data on the holographic screen, he frowned slightly.

No. 3 just told him last night that there was an explosion of unknown cause at the joint dark energy mission base.

However, the real situation is much more serious than No. 3 said.

S.H.I.E.L.D. and NSNA's joint dark energy mission base didn't just suffer an unexplained explosion, it wiped out an entire mountain.

Looking at the huge deep pit with a diameter of several kilometers displayed on the screen, Russell had some bad premonitions.

Although in the movie universe, the base was also collapsed by Loki, the scene was far less serious than it is now.

The huge crater on the screen looks like it was hit by a giant meteorite.

After reading the current tragic situation of the Joint Dark Energy Mission Base, Russell browsed other information collected on the 3rd.

Although the satellite responsible for monitoring the base is not a special spy satellite, the satellite still captured some very interesting pictures.

Satellites captured images of the explosion at the base, as well as various vehicles and helicopters that were quickly evacuated before the explosion.

In these slightly blurred shots, No. 3 deliberately marked an ordinary-looking vehicle.

This is a very ordinary transport vehicle.

However, the passengers on the transport vehicle are not ordinary at all.

After technical processing, No. 3 made this somewhat blurred picture much clearer.

After seeing the few passengers on the transport vehicle, Russell sighed silently.

Indeed they are!
Although he could only see the two people sitting on the cargo box of the vehicle now, he recognized these two guys at a glance.

The black dwarf, who is as big as the Hulk, is far superior to ordinary people, and the general who holds a special scythe-like blade and is the head of the five obsidian generals, second only to Thanos.

The one who drove was not very well adjusted because of the cover of the roof and glass, and only a rough outline could be seen.

Judging from the outline, there is a high probability that the driver is Proxima Centauri, the lover of General Deathblade.

There is no Rocky as the vanguard, so let the Black Dwarf, General Deathblade, and Proxima Centauri of the Black Glory Five be the vanguard?
Thanos' arrangement cannot be said to be wrong, but Russell always feels a little weird.

Although the portal automatically opened by the Cosmic Rubik's Cube cannot let the entire Chitauri army come over, even so, if Thanos wants to send a vanguard from the Obsidian Generals, he should also send the most terrifying and cunning Obsidian Generals, Ebony Throat, who is like a military adviser, is not the three generals of Death Blade.

Even if Ebony Maw is not safe alone, he can still let Ebony Maw, General Deathblade, and Proxima Dark Night be the vanguard, instead of letting the black dwarf who doesn't look very smart come over.

has a problem!
There must be something wrong!

It is impossible for Thanos not to realize this.

After watching the screen restored on the 3rd, he glanced at the report of the Baijue warrior who rushed to Tucson last night.

The information returned by Warrior Baijue was nothing special, it was nothing more than the complete disappearance of the base, heavy casualties among SHIELD and NSNA staff, and so on.

"Let Soldier Baijue continue to collect information, find a few 'insiders' from S.H.I.E.L.D. to find out about the situation."

"Is there any news from Natasha?"

Russell asked No. 3.

"I haven't received any contact from Natasha yet."

Number 3 replied quickly.

After hearing No. 3's answer, Russell thought for a few seconds.

Then, using the "absolute order" of the king's serum, he connected to Grendel who was still in the Atlantic Ocean Temple.

"You go to the Joint Dark Energy Mission Research Base in Tucson, Arizona immediately, show your face, check the wreckage of the base, and then you can leave."

"Okay, Your Majesty! Your most loyal, reliable and trustworthy subordinate, Grendel, promises to complete the mission!"

Grendel's voice came directly to his mind through a mental connection.

Without giving Grendel a chance to continue speaking, Russell decisively disconnected the mental connection.

After doing all this, he picked up the coffee on the table and took a sip.

Afterwards, he left the study and went to the kitchen to prepare lunch with Diana.

After having a warm lunch prepared by Diana in the apartment and prepared by himself, Russell leisurely came to the headquarters of the octopus monster.

Although Thanos has sent the three Generals of Deathblade to Earth, he doesn't particularly care about it now.

In order for the Rubik's Cube to open a portal that is stable enough for the Chitauri army to pass through, General Deathblade and the other three still have a lot to do.

Simply put, it is unlikely that the Chitauri army will come to Earth in a short time.
