The Dark Barbarian Arrives in American Comics

Tony Stark was at the press conference, preparing to answer questions from reporters.

He is no stranger to this environment. A few days ago, he announced the closure of the Stark Group's weapons research and development department.

The impact of the battle between the two metal men this time was not small at all, at least a lot of photos were taken of them along the way.

You can see on the Internet how they flew all the way out of Stark Tower, accompanied by a huge noise. There is no way to hide this kind of thing.

"Mr. Stark, I heard that Director Obadiah had to stay behind the scenes due to health reasons. Is that true?"

A reporter asked impatiently when Tony had just stood up. It was obvious that his behavior was not polite.

But fortunately, Tony didn't directly kick him out. Even if he was kicked out of the venue by Tony, it was considered a gain.

The title "Tony Stark expels reporters from the venue" can also bring a lot of attention, and he, as the person involved, can even make a fortune from it.

"No comment!"

Tony spread his hands and responded to the reporter's questions with a bad attitude.

He likes the feeling of being surrounded, because it makes him feel like he is the center of the world, but this does not mean that Tony likes to be chased by these hyenas pursuing "news".

And what he doesn't like even more is being taken advantage of.

"Tony, the speech I prepared for you is in the card in your hand. You just have to say it according to what is written on it."

Rhodes, standing behind Tony, whispered.

SHIELD has already arranged this. After the previous Hydra incident, the relationship between the military and SHIELD has become much closer, so this matter was left in Rhode's hands.

This is also because they want to get the metal suit. After all, it is not a wise move to fight Tony.

It might be a good idea to play the emotional card.

"Mr. Stark, are those metal men a new work of the Stark Group? And does this approach violate what you said about stopping weapons research and development?"

This reporter who interrupted is much smarter than the last one. At least he has learned how to trap the questions.

"Which media are you from?"

Tony glanced at the reporter who was speaking. She was a blond beauty, but she was not interested in her at this level.

"XX Daily, Mr. Stark, do I have the opportunity to do an exclusive interview with you?"

The female reporter combed her hair. This action of playing with her hair is the easiest way to show off her feminine charm.

"I think you will receive the news that you have been fired when you go back. Also! Madam, I don't mean to be mean to you. You must know that everyone can testify that I am a person who has no prejudice against women. At least those cover girls can

testify.

So I don’t want to see news labeled as ‘discrimination’.”

Tony despised the female reporter's coquettish behavior. Compared with the beauties around him, this reporter was not a good choice.

What's more, since he came back from Afghanistan, he has never had anything to do with outside girls.

Tony fiddled with the microphone on the table, tugged on his tie, and looked at the reporter in front:

"I know what everyone wants to know, so there is no need for us to waste time here, right?"

Tony stood in front of the small table at the press conference, looking at the eager reporters below with interest, and spoke a little casually.

Most reporters nodded. What they wanted was not official rhetoric, but big news that could boost newspaper sales.

For example, there was news like "Stark actually bought a newspaper for a woman".

"If I say that everything you see is an illusion, I'm afraid you will laugh at me behind my back. Of course, I won't care if others say bad things about me behind my back, because I have long been used to it."

Tony continued with a smile:

"Of course, I will ask Stark Group's legal department to submit a lawyer's letter afterwards."

Tony focused the audience's attention at the pace he wanted, but his humor received little response.

Of course, the reporters weren't here to hear the official statement, but they weren't here to see Tony's sense of humor either.

"The truth of the matter is..."

Tony glanced at the small piece of paper in his hand. It said something like "Working with the military to develop new weapons. Before, it was just a combat test."

Tony bared his teeth.

This statement really has the style of the military. If it is really said like this, then his metal suit will become the product of cooperation with the military. Those guys are playing tricks with empty gloves.

Tony let out a long breath, and the reporters below were already waiting for the truth.

"I am Iron Man!"

After Tony finished speaking, he threw down the card in his hand and left the press table, then walked outside on his own.

A group of reporters were left making noisy noises, but Tony didn't care about that.

On one side, Rhodes slapped himself on the forehead with one hand, then turned around and followed Tony.

The current situation was somewhat beyond his expectation.

"Tony, that's not what it says on that card."

Rhodes said softly.

"So you are just a colonel, Rod. You still don't understand why your superior is your superior."

Tony said casually, and then grabbed Rhodes' neck.

"Okay, let's go have a party. I remember I promised you this."

"That's really good news."

Rhodes rolled his eyes, and the two of them left the press conference chatting and laughing.

"Mr. Stark, we want to know the identities of the woman who can fly and the man who flew into the sky with another metal man!"

The reporter shouted loudly in Tony's direction, but received no response.

Someone took a photo of Jessica and Luke at that time, but it was too far away, so no one saw their specific appearance.

Although these reporters had various means to investigate the information they wanted to obtain, all investigations were forcibly terminated due to interference from SHIELD.

Superpowers are usually something you can only read about in some unpopular tabloids, but this time someone confirmed the existence of superpowers.

…

"Captain, isn't it too early for us to go to London now?"

Rumlow sat on the plane and said to Steve, who was sitting directly opposite.

He did not take out the giant hammer with both hands, but just sat loosely in his seat. It seemed that he had become a lot more relaxed after leaving SHIELD.

"I just need some time in advance to familiarize myself with the environment. After all, we may have to fight this time."

Steve wiped the shield in his hand and responded casually.

However, this time it is basically certain that a battle will occur, and it is necessary to be familiar with the battlefield.

Originally, the group of them was supposed to start taking action tomorrow, but things always change.

"What kind of enemy can you fight that makes you take this seriously? Even if you don't hesitate to call us over in advance?"

Luke was sitting upright in his seat. This position was not comfortable, but Luke didn't complain at all.

Because Jessica was falling asleep on his shoulder, Luke would carefully adjust his sitting posture from time to time, hoping to allow Jessica to rest more comfortably.

After all, the two of them had spent a lot of energy the day before, but their relationship had indeed taken a step forward.

"Hydra, and those vampire soldiers. The soldiers wearing the uniforms of the Third Reich are obviously a large organization."

Steve thought of the guys he saw at that time, and his expressions didn't look good.

He really didn't want to go through a fight with the car door as a shield again, and those guys were obviously elite troops, not gangsters in military uniforms.

The layered attacks and non-stop fire suppression gave Steve a headache.

He was very aware of the fighting prowess of the werewolf and the mummy. At least before he fell asleep, they were his closest comrades.

Together they destroyed an unknown number of Hydra strongholds.

But even beings like werewolves and mummies would be killed by those vampire soldiers. Steve couldn't be too optimistic about this.

"Although I don't know what you met Steve, those guys may be more powerful than you think. At least the vampire I saw can crush me in a head-on battle."

A worried voice sounded from the cockpit of the plane.

"Who is this? Steve, you have never introduced him to us."

Matthew was wearing a suit and shouted towards Steve.

They had not seen the pilot since they boarded the plane, and this was even the first time he made a sound.

Matthew thought this was just a simple driver.

"My old comrade from the Howling Commandos, you can just call him Blade."

Steve's expression softened a lot and he introduced his old buddy easily.

The most important person in this operation is the Blade Warrior.

This is also the reason why there is only one expert on dealing with vampires that can be found in S.H.I.E.L.D., so Nick Fury ignores the fact that vampires and vampires cannot be generalized.

Nick Fury rescued him at the time, and then asked the Sunwalker to be the pioneer in tracking down the Hydra vampires, so he was the leader of this operation.

The Blades always have a unique way of tracking down those vampires.

As for Dugan and the others, they will probably arrive here before the final battle.

After all, the relationship between Dugan and Rumlow is not very harmonious, and meeting in advance will inevitably cause unnecessary friction.

"This guy is really good!"

Luke turned his head and looked in the direction of the cockpit and said:

"But do all members of the Howling Commandos live this long? Or is the guy who flies the plane already an old man?"

"Even if you only count the time I spent in battle, I am much older than a young man like you."

The sound of the blade came at the right time.

"Cool! It's awesome that a veteran is still a driver!"

Luke shouted, and then found that Jessica showed some signs of waking up, and immediately adjusted her position so that Jessica could sleep better.

Although Luke knew that Jessica was just closing her eyes and concentrating, the environment on the plane was not very comfortable, at least he couldn't sleep.

Now Luke cherishes Jessica very much, and he is very happy.

"Luke, do you want to get some trophies to get Orac's blessing? I think you have to kill at least one demon of the same level to get Orac's nod."

Rumlow said with a smile, he didn't care at all about the news about Blade.

Rather than talking about Blade, he found Luke and Jessica's personal affairs more interesting.

"Man, let's talk about the news about those vampires. Although I didn't see those guys at the time, the situation over there is not easy at all."

Matthew frowned and said.

He had come into contact with vampires at that time. When he arrived at the scene, he immediately bumped into Hellboy, the Witch-in-Heart Demon, and the big flaming skeleton.

Those are not the withered bones in the grave of Yuan Shu, the Skeleton King of the Han Dynasty, but the Ghost Rider.

He had personally experienced the fighting power of these guys, so Matthew was very worried about those vampires who could contain these guys.

To know that he can achieve that level, he can no longer be called a pure soldier.

At least he belongs to the ranks of extraordinary people.

"The vampire I saw is obviously different from what you said. That guy is at least considered an elite fighter."

Blade said while flying the plane, the pursuit of Yang Valentine at that time was still fresh in his memory.

The Blade Warrior is not an ordinary person's level of combat power, and anyone who can suppress him at all times is extremely dangerous.

At that time, Yang Valentine completely crushed him physically, which was not good news.

Now that he had the opportunity to let others kill vampires with him, of course he was willing.

After all, he never thought about getting rid of all vampires by relying on his own strength from the beginning. That would be unrealistic at all.

"I don't have any real sense of what you are saying, but I can't tell how strong that guy you are talking about is."

Matthew shouted like this and pulled open the collar a little uneasily.

Ever since he got used to the urban life on the holy mountain of Harrogas, he felt a little disgusted with formal clothes like suits.

Perhaps savages like to be free and unrestrained?

"I can't describe its combat power, but that guy can easily take down a team of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents."

Blade opened the small door on the cockpit and revealed his face.

"Oh! In addition to the black ones for the angels, so do the blade warriors!"

Luke had the biggest reaction to Blade's face.

As an urban legend that often appears in third-rate newspapers, Blade Runner is still somewhat mysterious to Luke.

"Luke, haven't you read the Howling Commando comics? Why are you so surprised by this?"

Matthew moved his shoulders and said, although he didn't know that Blade Warrior was black before.

"The Howling Commandos only appeared a few times in the comics, and Blade only had a name. I thought he was that kind of, um, elegant vampire."

Luke made additional explanations.

After all, the hero comics back then were all from Steve's perspective, and The Howling Commandos didn't have much space.

You must know that when the military created gods, they only created the noble Captain America, but the Howling Commandos did not die.

"How can those vampire bastards have any elegance? They squat in a gloomy environment every day wearing black leather clothes, twisting and turning to that weird music, and occasionally spreading their disgusting mouthparts. Do you call this elegance?"

Blade said with disdain.

He himself couldn't figure out why things with long lives always looked like low-class street villains.

Some of them are disdainful of modern technology.

Could it be that the TV show isn't as interesting as them wriggling around?

If given a choice, Blade felt that he would rather play video games in a bright living room than get together with vampires and create any "style".

"When those guys hurt girls and start sucking blood, one or two of them will be so disgusting. If you like that kind of tone, you might as well watch the night show."

Blade complained mercilessly about his own kind.

"Well, you've completely disillusioned me with vampires."

Luke opened his palms and said.

As partners of the same color, the dialogue between them should be more "free".

Maybe this is some kind of wonderful talent?

"Luke, don't talk about such disgusting things."

Jessica opened her eyes and said, she is a warrior now, and the sleep she had before was just a way to be gentle with her lover.

When talking about this kind of topic, she could always think of the things she had encountered before, so she chose to interrupt.

"Okay, Jessica."

Luke looked into Jessica's eyes over his shoulder and said, then laughed.

He reached out and pressed Jessica's head on his shoulder again, and then stopped talking about the previous topic.

"I hope Luke can find enough trophies soon, and you'd better get married soon."

Rumlow changed direction and leaned back on the chair as he spoke.

Although Orac would not interfere in Jessica's emotional issues, if Luke did not follow the barbarian tradition, his future life on the Holy Mountain would not be easy.

Orak won't give him a good look.

"Where are we going to land?"

Steve interrupted the sour conversation and asked Blade.

"They have a special landing pad on the roof of the Hexin Agency."

Blade answered casually, the route and so on along this route have been coordinated, and there will be no such thing as being shot down by flying fire.

Nick Fury has reached a certain level of consensus with Integra, at least the arrival of this team is allowed.

Who knows how Nick Fury convinced these British people who were immersed in glory and arrogance, but at least now they will not be driven back by these "elegant" "gentlemen".

"Looks like our travel plans are going to fall through? I don't think we can hang around in someone else's house."

Luke rolled his eyes, but Jessica didn't react at all to the news.

Couples travel because they can only rely on each other in strange places. This is a good way to enhance their relationship.

But Jessica felt that she did not need to use this method to enhance her relationship with Luke for the time being.

They all cherish each other.

"Why not to the S.H.I.E.L.D. branch?"

Steve said curiously.

"Because those 'gentlemen' want us to be under their noses."

Blade's tone isn't very good either.

Being accustomed to acting in secret, he doesn't like his affairs to be watched by others.

"How long do we have to stay in that 'Haising'? I don't want to stay like a prisoner."

Rumlow said a little frivolously, he has become more and more naughty recently.

Maybe this is called liberating nature?

"It won't be long. SHIELD is unique in intelligence, at least more accurate and efficient than Helsing."

Steve had to say this without conscience. After all, he was the only one from SHIELD on the plane now, and what he said was not entirely false.

"I didn't know that SHIELD could lurk among vampires. Vampires can't disobey their superiors, and even Black Widow can't lurk among those with brain problems."

Dao Feng said unceremoniously.

Although he is a level 10 agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., he has no sense of belonging to S.H.I.E.L.D.

You must know that most of the information about vampires in SHIELD was provided by him.

"Nick Fury will never give all his trust to one person. Who knows if he has a vampire agent."

Rumlow said casually, then stood up and planned to stretch his body.

Although the flight didn't last too long, he still felt a little uncomfortable.

Blade's driving skills are really good, but the flying process is not bumpy.

Perhaps this has something to do with the high technological level of S.H.I.E.L.D.’s aircraft.

"We are about to land, Rumlow, it would be best if you sit back."

Blade said this, causing Rumlow to raise his eyebrows.

"I'm a little surprised that you still know my name."

"Duggan and I are also comrades in arms. I even met him when he was recovering from his injuries."

Blade's voice was very calm, as if he didn't intend to have any conflict with Rumlow.

"You don't have to ask me why I didn't avenge Dugan. The old guy didn't even plan to take revenge, and it was not my turn to intervene."

Dugan himself didn't care about the so-called "hate", and there was no need for Blade to mix it with it.

The amazing feet under the quilt—who is he?

"This is the best news I have ever heard. That stubborn old man can still provide a lot of energy when fighting Hydra."

As soon as Rumlow sat back in his chair, the plane started to land.

This small plane from SHIELD can take off and land vertically, which is considered a black technology.

"Guys, do you feel it?"

Matthew asked.

Because he vaguely felt the devil's breath, and this feeling became clearer as the plane landed.

"Devil? It looks like this trip is not an easy job."

Luke murmured, his hand already ready to draw the weapon.

"No, this aura is Hellboy. I have met him before."

Matthew's perception became clearer, and he recognized an acquaintance from this aura.

"Hellboy? Isn't that someone from the Bureau of Paranormal Investigation and Defense? Nick Fury didn't tell me this news."

Blade's tone was somewhat questioning, and he turned his head to look at Steve through the small window.

"I haven't heard of it either. Maybe Nick Fury has any plans?"

Steve frowned and said, he felt like he frowned more often during this period.
