Silence enveloped the underground space, and the air seemed to be frozen.
Tony walked over to Henry.
He looked at his brother, who was torturing the Winter Soldier like a toy, and the corners of his mouth under the armor twitched uncontrollably.
"All right."
After a long time, he finally squeezed out a few words from between his teeth.
"I admit, you bastard, you are a little more brute force than I expected. However, your unesthetic fighting style is an insult to the word 'combat'. This isn't called fighting, this is called demolition."
Henry ignored his trash talk.
He slowly walked to the bottomless human-shaped cave, looked down at Bucky, who had fainted inside and whose body was twisted like a puddle of mud, then curled his lips.
"I have to say, the technology of those Hydra guys is really going backwards." He shook his head with a disgusted tone.
"I thought the transformed Winter Soldier could play with me for a while longer. Turns out, it wasn't even a warm-up. Honestly, his bones are too brittle," he said, even moving his wrists with all of a seriousness, as if he had just casually swatted a buzzing fly.
"Hey! You bastard! That's the murderer who killed his parents!" Tony's voice was filled with suppressed anger, and he walked over quickly.
"You knocked him out so easily?! I didn't even have the chance to properly communicate with him about the painful experience!"
"Oh? Really?" Henry glanced at him.
"Do your methods of communication also include tying him to a chair and giving him a personal lecture for hours? I have to say, it's a good suggestion."
At the moment they were bickering, the central control room in the deepest part of the base had already become a mess.
"General! The Winter Soldier mission has failed! We've been suppressed by the target!" A researcher in a white coat looked at Henry, who was like a god on the surveillance screen, with his voice trembling.
"Trash! A bunch of trash!"
The leader kicked him away, greed flashing in his eyes.
"This is true power! This is the power of God!"
"Start the final agreement!"
He turned and roared at the researchers in the control room.
"Let it out!"
"Only this!"
"Only our most perfect creation! Only it can fight against God!"
In the circular underground space, Tony was about to continue chatting with Henry. At this moment, something strange happened!
The entire base shook without warning!
"Alarm! Alarm!"
"The underground energy core has been detected and is operating at overload! The energy index has exceeded the safety threshold!"
Jarvis's urgent warning sounded instantly in their communication channel!
On the ceiling, the thick walls began to crack inch by inch, and countless pieces of gravel and ice fell!
"What's going on?!" Tony's face changed instantly.
"Is this base going to self-destruct? Are those Hydra guys just that unable to accept defeat?!"
"No."
Henry became interested.
He raised his head and looked at the bottomless abyss below the platform.
"There's something down there, it's coming out."
Before he finished speaking.
A loud noise, as if coming from the depths of hell, came from the ground!
"Boom!!!"
The circular platform carrying the hibernation chamber was instantly split in two from the middle!
Red magma, mixed with a disgusting smell of sulphur, gushed out from the cracks in the ground!
Immediately afterwards, a huge metal head, with a terrifying aura, slowly rose from the surging magma!
It was a robot head with Soviet-style violent aesthetics all over its body!
It's even bigger than a house!
Its eyes were two flashing red searchlights, staring coldly at the two men.
"I have to say..."
Tony looked seriously at the steel behemoth that crawled out of the ground in front of him.
"The Hydra guys' secret weapon is really simple and crude."
Henry's voice also sounded lazy.
"Perhaps they think that as long as they make something big enough, it will be strong enough? This foolish way of thinking is even more ridiculous than the battle Armor you designed."
"That's called art! It's not ridiculous! You only know how to use brute force..."
Their bickering was interrupted by a deafening roar.
The robot opened its terrifying mouth.
"roar!!!!"
A red energy cannon, thicker than the previous Hydra soldier's energy beam, instantly burst out from its mouth!
The target of the energy cannon was neither Tony nor Henry.
But it was the huge hole above their heads that was smashed open by Henry!
"BOOM!!!!"
The terrifying energy instantly hit the dome of the base!
Triggered an even more violent chain explosion!
A large amount of ice, snow, and rocks poured down madly like a flood that broke through a dam!
In just a moment, their only exit was completely blocked!
"Okay," Tony curled his lips as he looked at the completely blocked retreat route.
"It seems that the Hydra guys are planning to bury us alive here, along with this old antique."
"They are really hospitable."
"hospitable?" Henry smiled when he heard that.
He slowly turned around and faced the steel behemoth.
His eyes burned with an unprecedented fighting spirit.
"I think," his voice began to heat up.
"The party has just begun."
The huge steel beast climbed out completely, and its huge body almost broke through the entire underground space.
With every inch of movement, the base shook violently, and countless steel bars and concrete broke and fell from the top.
Its red eyes were fixed on Henry and Tony with cold, murderous intent.
"Jarvis, analyse its structure and weaknesses."
Tony calmly gave the order, and data instantly appeared on the armor's visor, rapidly scanning and modelling the behemoth before him. Henry smiled.
"Let me guess, are you thinking we should keep a safe distance from it first, then use those micro-missiles that buzz like flies to scratch it?"
"That's called tactical harassment! It's to test its Armor strength and reaction speed! You're a guy who only thinks with your fists!" Tony retorted.
"According to preliminary scans, this thing's shell is made of some kind of ultra-high-strength alloy we've never seen before! Although it's far inferior to vibranium, conventional physical attacks on it..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by an even more deafening roar.
The robot suddenly leaned forward, and a huge steel fist smashed down towards them with a whistling sound that tore through the air.
"Get out of the way!"
Tony's face changed instantly, and the thrusters behind him exploded, trying to dodge to the side.
But Henry didn't move at all.
He slowly raised his head and looked at the shadow of death that covered the sky, his eyes burning with blazing flames.
"hide?"
"Tony, when did you become such a coward?"
He no longer hesitated after he finished speaking.
In an instant, it turned into a black lightning that went upstream.
He did not choose to dodge, but took the initiative to face the giant steel fist.
"Are you crazy?!" Tony shouted quickly, trying to stop
But it was too late.
Under Tony's shocked and worried gaze, the black figure and the huge steel fist collided fiercely.
"boom!!!!!"
There was a loud bang.
A visible white air wave spread out from the point of impact.
The ground cracked instantly and collapsed under this force.
The surging magma shot up into the sky, illuminating the entire underground space in red.
"Henry!!!"
Tony's heart suddenly tightened, and he frantically drove the thrusters, trying to rush into the centre of the explosion with a destructive aura.
However, the next second, the cry that was about to come out was stuck in his throat.
The smoke and dust slowly dissipated.
Henry was still floating quietly in the air.
There wasn't even a scratch on his Armor.
He stretched out his right hand and casually held the giant steel fist that was larger than him with his palm.
But the huge steel beast was now frozen in place.
Its huge body was shaking violently.
On the giant steel fist held by Henry, cracks were spreading upwards at a speed visible to the naked eye.
