Chapter 99 - Chapter 99: Artoria Enters the Battlefield, New Changes

"Wind King's Barrier."

A transparent protective shield expanded around the car Artoria was driving, blocking several purple energy beams attacking her. The Chitauri flying above Artoria's car saw this and jumped down, using the bayonet-like weapons on the tips of their strange guns to stab at Artoria. However, they were all blocked by the Wind King's Barrier. Combined with Artoria's high driving speed, three were knocked flying, and one unlucky soul was thrown in front of the car and crushed.

"A bit tragic!"

With a beautiful tail flick, the blue Porsche body drifted through the streets like a bolt of lightning. This was something she could rarely enjoy doing, because usually this time was full of people, but now it was full of aliens. One you couldn't hit, the other you could; it was fun no matter how you thought about it.

But soon Artoria couldn't play anymore because of a 'traffic jam', though she was already very close to Tony and the others. She could see Thor's red cape flying back and forth in the sky. Opening the car door, Artoria rubbed her stiff neck and easily lifted her car with one hand, smashing a Chitauri trying to ambush her into meat paste. She didn't care at all that this expensive car was now unrecognizable. Anyway, every year her older brother and those trying to flatter Artoria would send her hundreds of cars of a similar standard, so there was no such thing as feeling bad about it.

"Time to move around a bit."

Without immediately putting on her Spirit Gear, Artoria walked towards Tony's side without a hint of anxiety, as if strolling through a garden. Even when there were attacks from Chitauri, they were all blocked by the Wind King's Barrier. Occasionally throwing out a Kunai or Black Key, the opponents would turn into saint quartz fragments and land in Artoria's hand.

"This thing's skin is too thick."

Tony watched his energy drop by a bar, yet he still couldn't use the two thermal cutting lasers on his hands to cut open this whale-like thing. This thing was truly bizarre. If you called it mechanical, it would bleed; if you called it biological, the ugly things jumping out of the 'hatches' on its sides proved it was like a ship full of soldiers.

"There are too many of them."

After hearing Tony's complaint through the earpiece, Natasha relied on her superb skills to kill many Chitauri, but she was still within the human range after all. She was a bit tired now, and sweat was trickling down. This wasn't a movie; she couldn't just pause to rest for a while or wipe her sweat.

"Mjolnir."

Thor flew into the sky, holding the Mjolnir, channeling the hammer's power and his own. Numerous dark clouds instantly appeared in the sky, and blue lightning, like divine punishment, struck the Chitauri in the sky into ash. But before his happy smile could last long, a large number of Chitauri flew out from the large space portal again, filling the sky. Seeing this, the smile gradually faded from Thor's face.

"My foolish brother, just keep wasting your strength like that!"

The Third Princess Loki stood happily beside the Cosmic Cube. Hawkeye had already set out to hunt the Avengers. As for the doctor, an elderly man, Loki wasn't so cruel as to let him go to his death. He was currently using magic to hide himself, ready to stab his older brother's kidney at any moment.

"Dr. Banner, you..."

Captain, however, spotted Dr. Banner arriving at the battlefield on a motorcycle, looking disheveled. Seeing Captain's surprised eyes, Banner expressed that he had bitterness in his heart but wouldn't say it. You heartless people actually forgot about me.

"Me... ┗|`O′|┛ ROAR~~"

Banner wanted to complain to Captain about the bitterness in his heart, but he was hit by a stray bullet. Hulk appeared instantly. He looked angrily at the 'little bugs' in the sky, roared at the heavens, and jumped up to crush those unlucky guys who provoked someone they shouldn't have.

"Hey! Bro."

This Battle of New York was truly chaotic. Little Spider and Gwen both appeared on the battlefield. Compared to Spider-Man, who only had super strength and spider silk, Gwen had the armor given by Artoria. After turning on the slaughter mode, her combat record was stellar. Little Spider found a moment to try and chat with this 'big bro' again, but Gwen had no intention of paying him any mind.

"Bro, move aside for me."

No matter how chaotic the surroundings were, Artoria still found her own brother immediately. Seeing that he was about to dive into the belly of the Chitauri carrier for an internal demolition, Artoria rolled her wrists and shouted loudly. Hearing Artoria's shout, Tony subconsciously moved away from the front of the 'whale'. The next moment, a familiar figure appeared where Tony had just been.

"Super Strength Punch, Baji Half-Step Crumbling Fist."

At this moment, Artoria's battle blood began to boil, her face filled with the fervor of battle. Even without wearing her Spirit Gear, with Artoria's current physical fitness, she wouldn't necessarily get hurt. With one punch, the Mystic Code Baji Quan and Super Strength Punch merged into one. The 'whale's' head was caved in, but that wasn't all; this giant body was actually blasted down from the sky. Artoria paid the price of half her suit being destroyed, but she was wearing a high-quality short-sleeved tight undershirt inside, which prevented her from being exposed.

"Sis... sister."

Tony's eyes widened. He never imagined his sister was so powerful. A guy he couldn't even handle was solved by his sister with one punch.

Artoria, who temporarily lacked the ability to fly, slowly landed back on the ground with the help of the Wind King's Barrier. Artoria frowned as she looked at the clothes on her body; these crappy clothes still couldn't withstand her strength.

"Artoria, what are you doing here?"

Natasha also saw the situation here and ran over quickly. She looked at Artoria's current look, then at the sky. She was somewhat unwilling for Artoria to appear. After all, Nick had been eyeing Artoria for a long time. Having been in contact recently, she really didn't want Artoria, this 'lily flower', to be stained by this iron-blooded battle.

But big sister, did you not see that the massive, high-tonnage behemoth nearby was knocked to the ground by that very 'lily flower'? Tony, who was almost driven to seclusion by his sister's blow to his ego, silently eliminated the incoming Chitauri. Normally, he would have long ago shouted for Artoria to go home and eat, and not to get involved in this kind of thing, but now his confidence was almost shattered, and he couldn't bring himself to lecture Artoria.

"To fight, of course."

Artoria glanced around. Thor had just arrived, as had Gwen. Slowly, all the Avengers began to gather. It seemed they realized that fighting like this would never end. Little Spider was tied up by Hawkeye's situation; they needed to redraft a plan. As expected, a decapitation strike was more suitable, but would things really go according to the 'plot'?

When Artoria saw the figure flying from the large space portal towards Stark Tower, she could be sure this would be a tough battle.
