Compared to Li Chuan, Ivan clearly didn't pay as much attention to Wanda. After all, while Wanda's Deformation Curse was miraculous, it didn't display much destructive power throughout the entire process.
So, after striking Li Chuan with his electric whip, he immediately aimed a second whip at Li Chuan's landing spot and remotely commanded the remaining seven robot soldiers to focus all their firepower on Li Chuan.
He thought that as long as Li Chuan was dealt with, then the half-crippled Tony and the average-strength Wanda would pose no threat.
However, this very thought of his made him realize what misery was about to befall him.
Wanda, her face filled with fury, saw that Ivan was still trying to harm her beloved husband. Her left hand shot out and grabbed Ivan, and his entire body was instantly bound by a ball of red Chaos Magic, suspended in mid-air.
At the same time, her right hand pressed downwards sharply towards the seven robot soldiers in mid-air. Red Chaos Magic also appeared on the seven robot soldiers, pulling them forcefully to the ground.
"Boom!"
With a loud crash, the seven robot soldiers instantly shattered.
What Wanda used at this moment was the most common Transfiguration Charm among wizards, but under the amplification of powerful Chaos Magic, its effect even surpassed what Grindelwald had demonstrated at the Magical Congress of the United States of America at the time.
"How is this possible!"
Inside the whiplash armor, Ivan struggled to control the armor and break free from the restraints, but the armor only issued alarms and couldn't move an inch.
"Watch me peel off this tin can of yours."
After destroying the seven robot soldiers with one hand, Wanda moved her right hand towards Ivan, then suddenly spread her five fingers.
The whiplash armor on Ivan's body seemed to be pulled by an invisible, powerful force, instantly disintegrating and flying off him in all directions.
Below, Tony, who was badly injured by Ivan's attack, struggled to his feet. He looked at Ivan, who had been forcefully stripped of his armor by Wanda, and couldn't help but swallow, muttering:
"Good thing she already forgave me, otherwise it would have been awful."
If she could instantly strip Ivan's whiplash armor, she could naturally instantly strip his Mark Armor. He originally thought Li Chuan was already very strong, but he didn't expect his wife to be even more abnormal than him.
"Ah!"
Without the protection of the whiplash armor, Ivan was just an ordinary human. Although his body was very strong, how could he withstand the crushing force of Wanda's Chaos Magic? He immediately let out screams.
"Wanda, I'm fine, don't kill him. This guy is still useful."
Just as Ivan was about to die on the spot, Li Chuan's voice suddenly rang out, causing Wanda's eyes to instantly clear, and all the Chaos Magic on her dissipated.
"Darling, are you hurt?"
"No, his attacks can't hurt me."
Li Chuan watched Wanda rush to him, constantly touching his body to check for injuries, and gently hugged her, comforting her.
With his body, as long as the electric whip didn't directly hit him, he would basically be fine. He could easily dissipate the impact force with a few backward steps after landing.
Even if Wanda hadn't erupted just now, Ivan and those robots couldn't have harmed him.
He just didn't expect Wanda to react so strongly, and to be so powerful after erupting, instantly taking out Ivan and the remaining seven robot soldiers.
Seeing that Wanda was about to kill someone due to losing control, he quickly spoke up to calm her down.
Wanda is normally very kind, so if it's possible not to kill, he still doesn't want Wanda to kill, because he knows very well that the feeling after killing for the first time is not good.
He taught Wanda magic and brought Wanda out for various practical exercises not to turn Wanda into a subordinate like Xiao Wu or Xiao Liu, but simply so that she could protect herself if there was danger in the future.
So, unless it was absolutely necessary, he didn't want Wanda to have blood on her hands, because he already had enough blood on his hands.
Additionally, Ivan Vanko indeed still had some value.
Although this guy might be slightly less talented than Tony Stark, he was able to tinker with his own reactor based on the technology left by his father, and create the whiplash armor and those robots, so his technical skills were still good.
His subordinates needed scientists like this, whether it was to upgrade machines in various factories or to develop some weapons for his subordinates, it would be very useful.
As for loyalty, it's simple. For ordinary people like him, the Obliviate and False Memory Charm can easily take care of it.
This includes Dr. Lister, who was formerly with HYDRA in the Base, and those HYDRA scientists who might be recruited in the future. Their pasts can all be erased with the Obliviate, retaining only the necessary knowledge and filling in a new identity memory.
"It's really nice to have someone care. I think I should go to the hospital right away."
Tony restored his somewhat deformed and unpowered armor to its briefcase state, then limped over.
"Vulnera Sanentur!"
Li Chuan released Wanda, waved his wand, and cast the Healing Charm on Tony.
In an instant, Tony, who was covered in bruises and had multiple minor bone fractures, returned to normal.
If one is good at healing magic in the Wizard World, the effects are very obvious. In terms of healing the body, it is much better than the Healing Palm Technique, but it cannot detoxify.
For example, the risk of dismemberment that occurs when young wizards learn Apparition, or if they break an arm or leg, they can recover very quickly with healing magic.
Unless attacked by some malicious curse that cannot be healed, similar to Auror Moody, basically as long as it's a normal injury, not one that causes immediate death, a wizard's healing magic can save them.
"Although it's hard to understand, magic is indeed amazing. It's just that your title of Dark Warlock is really a bit too…"
The crisis had been resolved, and Tony, feeling his body fully recovered, instinctively let his sharp tongue loose again. He couldn't help but complain that Li Chuan's nickname, Dark Warlock, wasn't cool enough.
However, his words were cut off halfway by Li Chuan:
"Wanda gave it to me."
Tony's expression immediately changed, and the complaint on his lips turned into praise:
"It's really too fitting! Dark… Warlock! This sounds very aristocratic. Mrs. Maximoff's title is truly brilliant… truly brilliant!"
"Is that so? I think it's great too. Hmph, some people online even said it didn't sound good. It seems you have good taste in appreciation."
Wanda's attitude towards Tony improved somewhat upon hearing his praise.
"Since the matter is resolved, we're going back too. I have a use for this guy, so I'll take him first. Remember not to expose us to the media."
Li Chuan looked at the bold reporters who had gathered to watch. Seeing that the situation here was safe, they all raised their cameras and walked towards them. He pulled Wanda and, carrying the unconscious Ivan, Apparated away.
