"This strange appearance does indeed resemble a Deviant."
Sersi, the Eternal who possesses the ability to control energy and who had notified Ikaris, was repeatedly watching the video uploaded to the internet. She estimated that Ikaris, already in North America, should have flown to the scene by now.
Frankly, making a public appearance in modern society can easily cause trouble. After all, the last time they eliminated Deviants was in the sixteenth century.
In the past, they could act recklessly without causing global attention. In a few decades, their existence would be forgotten.
But that's not possible now, with all the various recording devices.
And to think, the Deviants, who should have been wiped out long ago and who specifically feed on humans, have inexplicably reappeared? "The Celestials gave us life, and we must use our lives to fulfill the will of the Celestials—to protect humanity from the Deviants. I hope Ikaris can confirm as soon as possible whether these unseen creatures are Deviants."
Sersi didn't know that her trusted lover, harboring some unspeakable feelings, had rudely defined Duval and started a fight.
But she soon found out, watching the intense clash of two figures causing massive destruction on the internet with wide eyes.
...
"The situation is now very clear: a man who appeared out of nowhere flew to New York at ten times the speed of sound and confronted Duval for unknown reasons."
Fury pointed to the satellite projection, expressionless, but his face was frighteningly dark: "Energy monitoring satellites show that this person has extremely alarming energy levels. Where did he come from?"
As the head of S.H.I.E.L.D., he was prepared to deal with all kinds of emergencies at any time, but he absolutely hated any form of unexpected factors.
Soon, an even more unexpected, even frightening factor appeared for Fury.
From the broken laboratory where the Abomination had emerged, a burly figure walked out again.
"Abomination? Is he teaming up with Duval?" Hill was surprised, but quickly realized her mistake.
That guy wasn't the Abomination.
The satellite AI was constantly calculating, and although the perspective was limited, the result was clear: in terms of size, this strong individual was significantly smaller than the Abomination, a "small guy."
"That's a Xenomorph." Dum Dum Dugan was silent for a moment, his voice a little dry, "Maybe I'm wrong? The Abomination, injured by the Hulk, returned to this laboratory, perhaps seeking the source that caused his transformation. As a result, what came out wasn't the Abomination, but a Xenomorph extremely similar to the Abomination?"
The people present were all experienced top agents, but at this moment, everyone was silent.
The deep information conveyed by this short scene was shocking, unbelievable, and almost shattered a certain understanding of the world and life forms.
Could things really be as they imagined? "If that's the case, then it's understandable that Duval fought the Abomination before us," Coulson also arrived, with unprecedented solemnity between his brows, and said in a low voice.
Soon, they saw that the mysterious man, for some reason, wanted to attack Duval, but was stopped by a strong Xenomorph resembling the Abomination, and a battle broke out on the spot.
Wherever the man and the Xenomorph passed, they turned buildings into unrecognizable messes. The solid buildings made of reinforced concrete were as fragile as paper in front of these two.
Absolute violent confrontation, cruel hand-to-hand combat, without any defense at all, using all opportunities to attack, just to punch each other more! All they needed was close combat.
The bloody and brutal confrontation made Fury and others frown, speechless for a long time.
This level of destruction was frightening.
Especially Duval, if he really used mysterious methods to use the Abomination's power to create a new Xenomorph...
"I thought he was a minor character who only needed close monitoring, but I didn't expect him to be a very troublesome shark."
Fury broke the silence: "He also used us, taking advantage of this opportunity to obtain a Xenomorph that is unbelievably powerful."
"Boss, I feel like this new Xenomorph is much stronger than the Abomination, and it's constantly getting stronger? How long has it been? It's getting stronger, and its power seems to be gradually catching up with that mysterious man, it's almost like..."
"Hulk." Fury said, "A certain possibility we guessed is very likely to be reality. Combining the example of Duval capturing several Vampires alive, we can initially conclude that he uses some specific method to allow the Xenomorph to obtain the power of different life forms."
"It's nothing more than those few situations, surgical transplantation of organs, devouring, gene stripping, but doing these things takes time. From Duval attacking the Abomination to now, how long has it been in total?" Coulson couldn't figure it out even after racking his brains.
"Adjust Duval's level, raise it... four levels, he should be given key attention and vigilance," Fury said.
Does there really exist a creature that can seize power and grow at an exaggerated speed?
Everyone in S.H.I.E.L.D. underestimated Duval and was tricked by Duval in this incident, becoming the background for the rise of new powerful forces.
This feeling was painful.
But Duval was extremely happy. He watched the fierce collision of the two figures from a distance, extremely gratified.
At the beginning, the newly born Abomination Xenomorph was indeed at a disadvantage, often taking many punches before having the opportunity to give Ikaris a claw.
But as time went on, the Abomination Xenomorph's terrifying potential was revealed. This Xenomorph had seized the Abomination's best genes—in other words, the Hulk genes—and was born!
The more it fought, the angrier it became, and the angrier it became, the stronger it got! This exaggerated increase was so much that even Ikaris found it unbelievable. How many rounds had they fought? This Deviant, as he knew it, was already able to fight him on equal footing! Punching with fists no longer worked; shooting with Heat Vision could at most scorch the Abomination Xenomorph's metal armor, unable to harm its insides.
Ikaris's only advantage was... that he could fly!
He didn't believe that this thing in front of him could evolve a pair of wings on the spot!
"No matter what you are, since you are willing to fight for that human, then I will kill him!"
A hint of ferocity flashed in Ikaris's eyes. He punched the Abomination Xenomorph in the chest, knocking it back, and then unleashed a blast of Heat Vision. He was about to fly into the sky and abandon the Abomination to kill Duval.
With such a powerful Xenomorph by his side, Duval, as the controller, might not necessarily have such strong combat power himself. He might be stronger, or he might be weaker.
But the Abomination Xenomorph possessed a powerful combat instinct. It couldn't fly, but with its thick thighs and strong tail, it leaped up, charging straight at Ikaris, grabbing Ikaris's thigh with its wide hand, pulling him down from the sky, and slashing at him with a claw, tearing open Ikaris's battle suit, leaving behind streaks of blood.
When powerful life forms clashed, after becoming familiar with each other's strength, it was basically a game of open cards. Ikaris wanted to escape, but suffered repeated setbacks.
The more he fought, the more Ikaris's mentality exploded. He was even injured!
He didn't hesitate to expose himself in front of billions of humans to silence them, wanting to use the Deviants as a trump card that could be used by him alone, but it turned out like this? "I can't fight anymore. Even if I can win against this damn thing, it's meaningless."
Ikaris gritted his teeth. After this battle, he also realized that this kind of creature didn't seem to be a Deviant at all. The changes in its form were normal muscle expansion and bone changes, which were fundamentally different from the Deviants' energy conversion of their bodies.
Even worse, he didn't need to think to know that the few people on Earth with amazing strength had officially noticed him and the Eternals behind him.
"Enough, this ends here, they are indeed not Deviants!" Ikaris shouted loudly.
"Well said, I've also confirmed one thing, you are the evil Deviant, the mortal enemy of all mankind!" Duval's righteous voice also came out.
