Chapter 87 - Even Super Heroes Need to Show Mercy

The sky carrier's radar alarms blared incessantly, and fighter jets circled around it, locking onto targets like birds of prey. Following that were deafening missile launches, streaks of fire cutting through the night sky and heading straight for the carrier. Tony quickly ascended in mid-air, scanning the incoming fighter jet formation as he flew. With a slight movement of his finger, data analysis of the enemy planes immediately popped up in his goggles.

"Thor!" Tony shouted, his voice reaching Thor through the communicator. "They're being controlled, knock them out, don't be too rough!"

Hearing Tony's instructions, Thor's face darkened. He gripped Mjolnir tightly in his right hand and unleashed a burst of power. Blue lightning erupted from the hammerhead, paralyzing the control system of a fighter jet, which immediately began to shake violently. He released Mjolnir, threw it high into the air, and then swung his hand forcefully. The hammer, carrying a bolt of thunderous power, struck another fighter jet, hitting the tail precisely and instantly making the opponent lose balance, causing it to fall askew.

"Don't worry, Tin Man! Thor will be gentle!" Thor roared, laughing excitedly with a full face. "It's just a little lightning baptism!"

Tony's mouth curved slightly upon hearing Thor's reply, and he breathed a sigh of relief. He quickly locked onto another fighter jet, tilting his body slightly, aiming at the engine section of the target. Two precise electromagnetic pulse cannons instantly hit the target, and the current quickly paralyzed the fighter jet's power system. The fighter jet lost control but did not explode; it just slowly fell like a kite with a broken string, eventually making a safe emergency landing on the deck next to the carrier.

"Is this your 'Thor' power?" Tony called out with a hint of teasing in his tone. "Honestly, I thought you'd be a bit more creative!"

Thor's laughter echoed through the communication channel. He swung the hammer in his hand, a proud smile on his lips. "Tony Stark, if you want more 'surprises', then open your eyes and watch carefully!"

He raised Mjolnir high above his head, quickly gathering a more powerful bolt of lightning. In an instant, he threw it at the fighter jet in the air. The current flowed like water over every metal surface of the fighter jet. Then, the engine section vibrated violently, and the fire was covered by a bolt of thunderous power. The pilot in the cockpit only felt a wave of numbness from the current before falling unconscious.

Seeing this, Tony couldn't help but whistle and tease, "Not bad, Thor, it seems you've learned some gentle human methods on Earth too!"

Thor laughed heartily and continued to swing Mjolnir, working with Tony to shoot down the fighter jet formation. Electric sparks and fire constantly flickered in the air. The two worked together seamlessly, adjusting angles and covering each other. Tony used high-tech equipment for precise attacks, while Thor used his power to control lightning, subduing the fighter jets one by one without fatally injuring any pilot.

On the deck of the sky carrier, Tony and Thor together placed the controlled fighter pilots in a safe area, ensuring they would no longer pose a threat to the carrier. Meanwhile, in the corridor on the other side, Hawkeye was leading a group of controlled S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents deeper into the carrier, heading directly towards Loki's detention area with a clear objective.

Steve suddenly blocked Hawkeye's path, his eyes firm, the shield in his hand gleaming with a cold light as he adopted a defensive stance. He looked at Hawkeye, his voice carrying a hint of earnestness: "Clint, do you remember the days we fought side by side? This isn't you, wake up! You're not the enemy!"

Hawkeye's eyes were cold and emotionless. His hand gripping the bow and arrow remained taut, and he drew the string and shot without hesitation. The arrow flew straight towards Steve. Steve quickly raised his shield, and the arrow struck it hard, producing a crisp metallic sound. Then, Hawkeye mercilessly launched a close-quarters attack, gripping the bowstring with one hand and quickly extending the other, attempting to unbalance Steve.

The two became entangled in the narrow corridor, exchanging blows, each attack filled with power and skill. Steve tried to steady the other's wrist and suppress him, but Hawkeye used his agile movements to circle around Steve's side and quickly delivered a kick directly to the knee. Steve stumbled slightly, immediately reacted, and quickly raised his shield to block in front of himself.

"Clint!" Steve shouted while fighting, trying to awaken the other. "You're our teammate, a hero of S.H.I.E.L.D.! Don't let Loki control you!" His voice was filled with urgency and hope, hoping to bring Hawkeye's reason back.

But Hawkeye was unresponsive, his eyes cold, as if he had completely lost himself, driven only by the instinct to fight. Attacks with fists and a dagger came in waves, one after another. Steve's shield continuously met Hawkeye's onslaught, but he could still feel the sharpness and precision of the other's moves.

Not far away, Natasha and a team of Agents were also engaged in a fierce battle. Her movements were swift and graceful, using both hands and legs, moving nimbly between enemies. She took down an Agent with an elbow strike and then quickly flipped over to throw another charging enemy heavily to the ground, her movements fluid. As she turned, she glimpsed Hawkeye relentlessly pursuing Steve, and anxiety filled her heart, but at the moment, she had no time to spare and could only continue to repel the continuously surging enemies.

The chaos of the battle was gradually spreading, and more dangerously, the power of the Mind Stone had quietly infiltrated the carrier. The eyes of the Agents in the control room gradually became empty, and their gazes towards each other shifted from the trust of comrades to the coldness of hostility. Under the influence of the Mind Stone, the suppressed anger and destructive desires deep within them were rapidly amplified, and they gradually began to lose their minds, falling into a state of madness.

An Agent suddenly attacked his comrade, wildly swinging elbows and fists as if venting his inner rage. Other Agents, also under the influence of the scepter, attacked each other. The entire sky carrier gradually descended into a chaotic state of mutual slaughter.

In this chaos, Coulson tightly protected Dr. Banner, trying to shield him from enemy attacks.

However, Banner's face was pale, sweat streamed down his forehead, and his fingers trembled slightly as he struggled to suppress the anger in his heart. The power of the Mind Stone also seemed to be trying to invade him, causing the green giant's power within him to gradually emerge.

"Banner, calm down!" Coulson tried to soothe him, a hint of worry in his tone. "I'll protect you, we won't let Loki succeed."

Banner closed his eyes and took deep breaths, trying to suppress the rage within him, but his body trembled slightly, the mental struggle causing him immense pain. In his mind, another voice seemed to echo, low and destructive.

"Banner... why are you suppressing me? Let me out... let me destroy these people! They're laughing at you, belittling you. Coulson can't protect you at all, you need me!" This was the Hulk's voice, that wild fury echoing in Banner's mind, shaking his resolve.

"No... I can't..." Banner gritted his teeth, trying to stay conscious. "I can't let you out, Hulk... you'll... you'll destroy everything!"

"I'll protect you, Banner! These people will only use you, they don't trust you at all! Look at their eyes, they only see you as a ticking time bomb. Let me out, let me tear apart these arrogant, foolish mortals!" The Hulk's voice grew stronger, like a dark whisper, constantly provoking Banner's reason.

"I... I can't..." Banner's fingers were almost digging into his palms. His eyes were tightly closed as he tried to suppress the anger within him. He knew that if he relaxed, the Hulk would completely take over his body, and the entire carrier would fall into irreversible disaster.

Coulson behind him had clearly noticed Banner's struggle. He looked at him worriedly and couldn't help but swallow. "Doctor, calm down, we'll get through this."

Banner nodded with difficulty, but the destructive impulse within him continued to grow. He gasped, finally managing to control himself and prevent the Hulk from fully erupting. However, he still felt a deep anxiety and unease in his heart, as if he could lose control at any moment.

Dominic and Blonsky stood to the side watching the chaotic battle, having no intention of joining in. Blonsky raised an eyebrow slightly, looking at the melee around them, and couldn't help but whisper to Dominic, "It seems this show is getting more and more exciting, Dominic, are you sure you're not going to get involved?"

Dominic shrugged, crossing his arms, a hint of narcissistic smile on his face. "Why get involved? I'm Homelander, I have more than just strength, I have wisdom. Let these guys play for a while, I have the big picture in mind." His eyes revealed a hint of self-satisfaction and cunning, as if he saw through everything.

Blonsky nodded in agreement. "Indeed, anyway, Nick didn't order us to act, so it saves us the trouble. What do you think, did old Nick anticipate that we would watch?"

Dominic chuckled, not concealing his confidence. "I saw through his plan long ago. Not ordering me to act is just to pique my interest and make me volunteer. Does he really think I'll be manipulated by him?"

The two exchanged a smile, as if enjoying this chaotic "drama," staying out of it yet maintaining a sense of control over the situation.

Just then, the battle on the other side was incredibly fierce, and the entire carrier was filled with tension and chaos. And under Coulson's soothing, Banner finally stood firm again, secretly vowing in his heart that he would not let the Hulk take over no matter what.
