Thud! Thud! Thud!
The asphalt road was cracked and dented, and several cars were crushed into metal discs before the Abomination finally came to a stop.
Huff... huff... huff...
It lay sprawled on the ground, breathing heavily, its body covered in cuts and lacerations, its chest cavity collapsed and deformed, its injuries a horrific sight.
But in an instant, a surge of heat coursed through his body, and wherever it passed, the collapsed ribs and flesh recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his strength returned accordingly.
However, that aura inexplicably carried a sense of withering and decay.
boom!
In the distance, another building exploded, and amidst the billowing smoke and dust, a figure soared through the air and hovered above the Abomination.
It was Chen Xiao.
He hovered in mid-air, his gaze sweeping over the rapidly healing body of the Abomination, a glint of light in his eyes, and slowly said:
"Its normal force is about 300 tons, and its peak punching force exceeds 1,000 tons. Conventional weapons, including Rocket and armor-piercing rounds, cannot penetrate its defenses. Its regeneration capability is also excellent."
"This level is indeed stronger than most Mutants... but it's still too weak."
Chen Xiao's tone carried a hint of regret.
According to the Hulk's character design, his strength should increase infinitely with anger; however, Abomination's normal strength is already twice that of the Hulk, yet the power he is displaying now is far from what was expected, and even less than his outburst during the battle on Alcatraz.
However, upon closer examination, it makes sense. If we were to follow the comic book setting, wouldn't established powerhouses like Professor X and Magneto also cause a major upheaval?
In reality, they are closer to the characters in the movie: they bleed, they get injured, throwing cars is their limit, and they still need to evade missiles even when facing them head-on. This is the sense of proportion that should exist in the real world.
However, during the later Loki Rebellion, the Hulk once capsized a 100-meter-long Leviathan Warship with a single blow.
The force unleashed is at least in the tens of thousands of tons, and may even approach the hundreds of thousands of tons.
Could the Hulk's power still be increasing? Will he become even more terrifying in another year or two? This thought flashed through Chen Xiao's mind.
With his current pure physical strength, a single punch could unleash a terrifying force of 20,000 to 30,000 tons, and he could easily break the sound barrier when he moved. Abomination had absolutely no chance of winning.
He didn't kill the opponent outright, but instead collected all its physiological and combat parameters.
He wanted to figure out what the real differences were between genetically modified enhanced beings like Abomination and true Mutants, beyond their strength, in terms of physical structure, recovery mechanisms, neural responses, and even energy metabolism.
roar!
Chen Xiao's scrutinizing gaze, as if examining an experimental sample, ignited a burning rage of Abomination. It sprang to its feet, grabbed a nearby car, and hurled it at Chen Xiao.
boom!
Chen Xiao remained unmoved, letting the car smash into his chest, exploding into countless fragments that fell to the ground.
Illuminated by the firelight, he stood unharmed, not even a scorch mark on his clothes. This sight filled Abomination with both rage and chilling cold.
This man who suddenly appeared is too powerful.
It was so powerful that it couldn't muster the slightest thought of resistance, leaving only utter despair.
It longs to face the Hulk head-on, but it is absolutely unwilling to be crushed and humiliated like a punching bag; it is not a masochist.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
On the street, one car after another was swung up and thrown by the Abomination, hurtling towards Chen Xiao as if they were toys; while it itself retreated step by step as it threw the cars.
boom!
In the instant the flames surged, Chen Xiao's figure vanished. Before the sonic boom that tore through the air had even dissipated, he had already teleported to Abomination's side and delivered a vicious side kick.
boom!
The shockwave exploded, and the earth trembled.
With a devastating blow, the Abomination transformed into a high-speed projectile, crashing into the building a hundred meters away, smashing through more than a dozen load-bearing walls, and finally landing on the street.
boom!
The asphalt road surface cracked inch by inch, its massive body carving out a jagged ravine more than ten meters long before finally coming to a stop after crashing into an armored vehicle.
Only then did Bruce and the others, who had been standing there in a daze, come to their senses; the surrounding crowd screamed and scattered, fleeing for their lives.
"Run! Get out of here!"
roar!
With Abomination expression and a painful roar, he propped himself up, his gaze sweeping over Bruce and Thaddeus Ross, who were still in shock at the edge of the street, his eyes gleaming with malice.
"Die, all of you!"
With a swift movement of its massive paw, it lifted the entire armored vehicle behind it and hurled it forcefully towards Thaddeus Ross and his group.
"Careful!"
"No,"
Thaddeus Ross and the others turned pale and turned to hide.
But the armored vehicle came too fast. They had barely taken a step when the behemoth crashed down with a piercing shriek, instantly engulfing the group.
boom!
The moment it landed, the ammunition inside the vehicle was violently detonated by the impact, sending flames soaring into the sky and thick smoke billowing out.
"Dead?"
Chen Xiao, who had just soared into the sky and was preparing to finish off the Abomination, was slightly surprised to see the rising fireball.
He didn't particularly like Bruce, the Hulk, nor did he dislike him; his original intention was simply to eliminate the Abomination, complete the mission, and settle a personal score along the way.
So when Bruce was forcibly taken away by Thaddeus Ross's men, he did not intervene, only planning to get rid of Thaddeus Ross later, since Ross was partly responsible for his parents' accident.
If he hadn't insisted on sending Blonsky to Pochut City, Blonsky wouldn't have gotten involved; if he hadn't secretly acted as a go-between, Trunk wouldn't have joined forces with Blonsky.
Not to mention, he later sold a large number of guns, bullets, grenades, howitzers, and Rocket to Trunk's company on behalf of the American America manufacturer Stark Industries.
That's right, it's Stark Military Industries, owned by Tony Stark.
It remains unclear whether Tony has donned the Iron Man armor or is still trapped in a Middle Eastern cave, hammering away at parts.
Just then, a powerful aura suddenly erupted from the raging flames.
boom!
The armored vehicle, now just a metal skeleton, was thrown into the air. A huge green figure slowly stood up, its bloodshot eyes fixed on the Abomination, its killing intent boiling.
Driven by the dual trauma of his girlfriend's tragic death and his own near-death experience, Bruce, whose condition had been suppressed by inhibitors, once again lost control and transformed.
The Hulk is back.
At this moment, he was consumed by rage and only wanted to destroy everything in front of him.
"Roar, I'll kill you!"
With a roar, the four-meter-tall green giant charged out, heading straight for the Abomination...
boom!
The enraged Hulk was sent flying by a punch from the equally furious Abomination, crashing heavily onto a building more than twenty meters away, sending dust billowing into the sky and debris flying everywhere.
Before the Abomination, which was over six meters tall and had a ferocious appearance,
The four-meter-tall, muscular Hulk looked like a smaller opponent; especially since the two were nearly twice as strong, the outcome was already decided.
The Hulk, blasted away, shook his head, furiously got to his feet, glared at the hideous face in the distance, and roared to the sky once more.
roar!
Before his roar had even faded, he had already shattered the ground, each step leaving deep craters in the asphalt, and continued his relentless charge.
boom!
The two giant fists collided fiercely, and the substantial impact exploded outwards, forming a visible shockwave that swept across more than ten meters, accompanied by howling winds and terrifying force.
The Abomination stared at the green face contorted with rage, baring its teeth and growling, "You think you're the only one who hates? I hate it more than you do!"
roar!
Before he could finish speaking, a fierce left hook was thrown, Hulk was sent flying backward, crashing into a lamppost on the roadside and breaking it in two.
roar!
The Hulk flipped over and leaped up, grabbed a car, and slapped it hard at the onrushing Abomination.
boom!
The car exploded into dust upon contact.
The Abomination, having received a "big slap," was sent flying, crashing into a shop on the street. The people inside were so frightened that they scrambled out of the shop.
boom!
Enraged, the Hulk followed closely behind, smashing through the glass door and rushing into the store, only to be kicked in the chest by the Abomination who had regained his senses, sending him flying backward like a cannonball.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The entire street became a battlefield, with the two fighting like two ancient beasts. Wherever they went, buildings trembled, vehicles disintegrated, trees were uprooted, flames rose, and explosions occurred one after another.
Police officers who had rushed over from afar stopped and watched the devastating battle from a distance, their faces ashen, speechless with shock.
They didn't dare get close at all.
These monsters fight to the death; let alone getting close, even the aftershocks could tear them to shreds on the spot.
As for the guns in his hands, after firing a few shots, seeing the bullets scattered everywhere by the skin of the two monsters, he immediately turned and ran.
Reporters also arrived at the scene. The female reporter waved excitedly, urging her assistant to quickly film the fight. In front of the camera, she spoke rapidly, her voice trembling:
"Viewers, this is a reporter from TTCV Station. Tonight on Lanli Street, two giant creatures have suddenly appeared and are destroying everything in their path!"
"Please look behind me, everyone. The entire street is now in ruins. The destructive power they have caused is simply horrifying."
"It is currently impossible to confirm whether these two humanoid behemoths are genetic mutants or some new type of mutated life form..."
boom!
Before she could finish speaking, a car engulfed in flames crashed down from the sky, billowing black smoke and flames, instantly engulfing the female reporter and her assistant.
The footage was broadcast live across the country, and viewers throughout Mexico gasped in surprise, only then learning that a monster battle had broken out in Pochut City.
Meanwhile, two gangs were engaged in a bloody street fight, but no media outlet dared to follow them.
This is the deterrent power of Mexico's underground forces.
Hundreds of meters in the air, Chen Xiao suddenly became an observer, and was momentarily stunned.
"Wrong!"
His pupils contracted, his gaze locking onto the two figures fighting below, which were now drifting further and further away. A slight smirk played on his lips. "Trying to slip away?"
roar!!!
The Abomination roared with fury, its moves fierce and rhythmic, repeatedly flipping, striking, and smashing the Hulk.
The fighting instincts honed through decades of special forces combat are ingrained in its very bones; and the Hulk, a former laboratory researcher, is utterly powerless against it.
Even as the Hulk grew increasingly enraged and his strength steadily increased, approaching the level of the Abomination, he could only barely block a few heavy blows and occasionally retaliate with a punch or two, which was already his limit.
Chen Xiao himself had encountered this predicament.
When he first entered the Virtual Battlefield, a middle-aged warrior of similar strength completely crushed him with a single move.
Witnessing the Hulk being unilaterally suppressed, he actually breathed a sigh of relief.
I'm glad I didn't run into an evenly matched opponent when I had no fighting experience and my skills were rusty.
