"What are you doing?"
Tony Stark was confused, and watching Lu Yi's actions filled him with distress.
Were you saving someone—or hurting someone?
"Of course I'm saving him!"
Lu Yi saw straight through Tony Stark's thoughts. He turned and gave Tony a small smile, then bent down and grabbed the spinning Gatling gun mounted on James Rhodes's armor.
His earlier stomp hadn't been full strength—Rhodes's War Machine armor was indeed high-quality, completely undamaged. When he couldn't push away Lu Yi's unmoving, mountain-like leg, Rhodes tried to fire the Gatling at Lu Yi.
But before he could attack, Lu Yi noticed and caught the barrel of the Gatling gun with one hand.
Ding! Ding! Ding…
Special ammunition fired, ringing against Lu Yi's hand like metal on metal. Every round was blocked.
The bullets jammed tightly inside the barrel. The Gatling gun… simply stopped. It jammed over and over, unable to operate.
Rip!
With a crisp tearing sound, Lu Yi ripped the Gatling gun clean off Rhodes's shoulder.
Zzzzt! Zzzzt! Zrrrk…
A large section of Rhodes's armor was torn open, sparks flying everywhere. Yet despite the violent ripping, the armor itself wasn't actually damaged—just peeled away. On the other shoulder, another weapon was exposed—the 'Ex-Wife' missile, a notoriously lousy and unreliable piece of junk, aimed right at Lu Yi and preparing to fire.
Lu Yi couldn't help but laugh. Its "power" was enormous—one careless moment and it could make you die of laughter. Its combat effectiveness was truly unbelievable.
He had no time to deal with such a joke of a weapon. With a tap of his finger, he knocked the Ex-Wife aside, then curled his five fingers into claws—sharp and unyielding like zirconium—and dug them into Rhodes's chest plate.
"What the hell—your armor is titanium alloy, isn't it? Or is he wearing mine?" Tony Stark blurted out in shock.
As the creator of Rhodes's War Machine armor, no one knew its toughness better than Tony. It was made of titanium alloy. Forget human fingers—not even guns could easily pierce it.
But Lu Yi broke that rule. His fingers weren't thick at all, yet they behaved like titanium alloy themselves, gripping the armor with ease.
A chill crept down Tony's spine. If those fingers grabbed his suit… or his body…
Oh crap.
Tony instinctively stepped back.
Lu Yi ignored him. He tightened his grip and gave a slight pull—Rhodes's chest plate and arc reactor were ripped out in one motion.
With its power source removed, Rhodes's War Machine suit immediately shut down.
Problem solved.
"Any other ideas?" Lu Yi crushed the arc reactor in his hand without looking back, speaking casually to Tony Stark.
After those words, he lifted his head toward the sky. "Come down."
At some point, another armored figure had appeared in the sky—armed with high-tech electric whips, watching them silently.
Ivan Vanko.
He heard Lu Yi's voice. After a moment of hesitation, he actually descended, landing not far from them.
"My only target is Tony Stark. I don't want anything to do with you," Ivan said, pushing open his faceplate.
He was deeply afraid of Lu Yi's strength and wanted no conflict with him whatsoever.
"You don't want anything to do with me? Too late. Your target is Tony Stark. My target is you."
Upon hearing this, Ivan knew there was no salvaging the situation. He swung his whip—electric arcs crackling—as he lashed it toward Lu Yi.
He wanted to strike first.
The upgraded electric whips were far more powerful than before. A single lash could slice through a car. Even Iron Man couldn't withstand that kind of damage—it would cripple the armor systems and severely injure the wearer.
Unfortunately for him… he was fighting Lu Yi.
Before the electrified whip could touch him, Lu Yi simply raised a hand and caught the tip of the whip as if it were nothing—completely ignoring the violent energy coursing through it.
"How is this possible?!"
Ivan's eyes nearly popped from his skull.
He swung the other whip at a nearby small tree. With a loud crack, the tree was severed cleanly in half, the cut glowing red as if burned by a terrifying current.
Looking from the destroyed tree to the whip gripped in Lu Yi's hand, Ivan's face turned pale.
My God… is this really a human being?
Is this something a human could do?
Before he could react, a massive force surged through the whip. His body was yanked forward toward Lu Yi.
Terrified by Lu Yi's brutality, he tried to avoid getting close. In mid-air, he activated the thrusters on his feet, using the backblast to stop himself.
His body halted—but Lu Yi didn't. With a push of his feet, he shot forward like a cannon round and drove his fist straight into Ivan's face.
Ivan had no time to dodge. Lu Yi was too fast. He took the hit head-on.
Bang!
Lu Yi's punch shattered Ivan's mask. Ivan instantly lost consciousness, blood gushing from his nose and mouth as his head snapped aside.
Lu Yi killed Ivan Vanko with a single blow.
"Too brutal…" Tony Stark shivered, staring at Ivan's twisted face.
"It's fine. I'll send you tomorrow's reward list. You know how to deliver it, right?"
"We'll meet again soon!"
"Excellent."
