"It can't be that someone's cursing me, right?"
Rhodey said jokingly, then glanced at Daisy, who was still sulking beside him.
That girl had lost the last game.
Hmm... she was utterly crushed by Rhodey!
"Want another round?"
Rhodey asked her with a smile.
"Yes! Why not?"
Daisy rolled up her sleeves, looking ready to play seriously.
But Rhodey thought it was all useless.
Ultimately, it still came down to skill!
If rolling up sleeves worked, wouldn't being shirtless be even more powerful?
...
"Ikaris, you go up and take a look first."
A group of people dressed in strange clothes arrived downstairs at Stark Tower. Passersby around them curiously took photos with their phones.
Some even laughed and shouted at them, asking them to perform acrobatics.
Hmm... mainly shouted by Kingo from the crowd.
Kingo is also a member of the Eternal, with the ability to fire energy beams from his arms, which are extremely destructive!
But he himself is also a famous Bollywood actor.
His popularity is explosive in India!
Even here in the United States, some people seem to recognize him.
At this moment, he was shouting and egging them on.
However, the group of people at this moment did not pay attention to these passersby.
The Ikaris they spoke of looked up at the tall Stark Tower before him, and just as he was about to fly up to take a look, the outer wall of the top floor of the tower suddenly shattered!
Then, two figures rushed out of the building, one after the other.
The person in front was a black man, tall and strong.
But at this moment, he was the one being beaten!
And on the other side was a man in a black robe, with a refined appearance.
The man swung his fists, blasting out blue energy, sending the black man flying like a baseball in the sky.
Finally!
The man delivered a heavy punch to the black man's head, causing him to instantly plummet towards the ground.
Boom!
The black man crashed heavily onto the road, creating a deep crater in the concrete.
Debris splattered, scaring the surrounding passersby.
"It's the Avengers!"
Someone shouted, and then more people became emotional.
"Damn Avengers! They're hurting innocents again!"
Some people who had been brainwashed by the government loudly cursed.
But there were also some who supported the Avengers.
After all, this was New York, and the Avengers had once saved this city from nuclear bombs and alien invasions.
Therefore, in New York, there were still supporters of the Avengers.
And the number was not small!
But compared to the vast number of brainwashed people, this number was nothing.
At this moment, among the crowd in front of Stark Tower, only about one-fifth supported the Avengers.
As for the others?
They were either watching with cold eyes, or they were idiots who had been brainwashed by the authorities into believing that the Avengers were black sheep, like a cancerous tumor.
They were currently cursing excitedly!
"It's Mandarin!"
The Eternals clearly saw the elegant-looking man flying in the sky.
It was their target this time—Mandarin!
Ikaris's eyes were cold.
He was about to rush up to deal with him.
Just then!
Three more figures rushed out from the top floor of Stark Tower above.
The first two were Tony and Rhodes, wearing Iron Man suits.
The two attacked Mandarin, who was flying in the sky, from left and right.
But their attacks were easily blocked by Mandarin, causing no threat at all.
Jessica followed closely behind.
She roared and rushed up.
Then she was kicked away by Mandarin.
He followed up with another punch!
Jessica instantly fell to the ground, becoming the second Luke Cage.
"Oh my god~! The Avengers are getting beaten!"
Someone exclaimed.
They couldn't believe it!
Even those fools who hated the Avengers were a bit unsettled at this moment.
They could curse Superheroes, but deep down, they didn't want Superheroes to be unable to defeat supervillains when they appeared.
Because in that case, it would be the turn of ordinary person like them to suffer!
Although these fools were easily brainwashed by the U.S. authorities.
But at least they weren't stupid beyond redemption.
At least they understood one truth.
That is, the existence of Superheroes was indeed protecting them.
It's just that the protection wasn't good enough, and it caused some destruction and casualties during the protection process.
That's why some people cursed.
But what if there were no Superheroes?
Of course, there would be greater destruction and more casualties!
Does that even need to be said?
Of course, it was inevitable that some truly idiotic fools were still cheering when they saw the Avengers getting beaten.
Perhaps in their tiny, almost invisible brains, they had no awareness of being protected by Superheroes; perhaps they even thought that it was their support as ordinary person that created these Superheroes.
If it weren't for them, would Superheroes cease to exist?
Many people really thought this way.
They never considered that if the Avengers hadn't saved New York, would the final result have been the government's nuclear bomb blowing the entire New York into ruins?
And would those who were now cursing and hating the Avengers have already died in the nuclear explosion?
They didn't consider any of these questions.
They only knew that the news reported how many people were injured and how much property was damaged by the Avengers' actions each time.
These were the things the U.S. authorities wanted them to know.
Being bombarded by this information repeatedly had completely overwhelmed their already impoverished brains.
These fools, looking at the Avengers who were at a disadvantage at this moment, cheered loudly, even rooting for Mandarin.
To be honest,
Mandarin himself felt a bit strange.
These people...
Are they idiots?
...
On TV.
The news was reporting the battle happening at Stark Tower.
Daisy, who had just finished another game and lost to Rhodey again, also saw the content in the news.
"Oh my god~! That person can actually suppress the entire Avengers by himself!"
Daisy looked at Mandarin on the TV screen in surprise; she didn't know him, but that didn't stop Daisy from thinking that the person on TV was very strong.
After all, how strong the Avengers were was obvious to everyone.
Although the two strongest combat forces of the Avengers were not present at the moment.
But the other Avengers were not to be trifled with either!
"Rhodey, should we go and see?"
