Chapter 1576 - I Caught Her, She’s Mine
Chapter 1576 I Caught Her, She’s Mine
The faith value was quickly depleted, and the Enchantress finally stopped struggling.
Gasping for breath, she stared at the two people in front of her with vicious eyes.
Observing her reaction, Luke asked, “Is this really effective? How long will it last?”
Tony was also studying the material in front of him. He said casually, “As long as it’s under control and the module isn’t damaged, it should be able to run normally for three to five years. However, the mental signals she gets will be completely out of whack, including those for sh*tting and eating, so, you know.”
Luke’s nose twitched, but he didn’t smell any sh*t. “It seems that a witch doesn’t need to eat or sh*t.”
Tony said, “She’s lucky.”
As they spoke, a helicopter’s searchlights came sweeping over. From the moment the Enchantress was caught, the fog had dissipated at a swift rate.
The only thing left now was a faint mist.
A group of people had already run over.
Luke said, “She’s mine.”
Tony hesitated for a moment. “Are you sure? Why don’t you just kill her here with that earlier move?”
It wasn’t that he was unwilling to hand the Enchantress over to Big Dipper, but that he wasn’t sure if the other party could deal properly with this old witch.
Luke shook his head. “She can’t be killed. Part of her body isn’t here. Destroying this body will only allow her to escape our control and to be reborn in another body. That might take years or even decades. We can’t always keep an eye on her.”
Tony frowned. “Where’s the rest of her body?”
Luke turned around. “Why don’t you ask them if they’re willing to hand the rest of her body
over?”
Tony also looked at the team that ran over, and his expression turned cold. “Forget it. They’re from ARGUS. It’s a branch of the American government which specializes in collecting these d*mn things.”
Luke said, “The Enchantress is mine.”
Tony nodded.
Their conversation was on the private channel, and nobody outside knew that they had reached an agreement.
Almost all the people who had run over stopped 30 meters away and ducked behind some houses.
Only one person approached within seven or eight meters of the two. He slowed down and called out, “I’m Rick Flegg, a colonel of the United States military. Mr. Stark, Mr. Big Dipper, thank you for your hard work and for helping us complete this mission.”
Tony didn’t say anything. The person behind these people was pretty annoying. He couldn’t be bothered to squabble with them; tossing the responsibility to Big Spoon was the best choice.
Luke picked up the Enchantress, who twitched every now and then, and looked at Flegg. “Mine.”
Flegg was stumped for a moment, but held onto his solemn expression. “Mr. Big Dipper, she’s a fugitive we’ve been doing our best to catch. Please give her to us.”
Boom!
Flames suddenly burst out of the thrusters on Luke’s back as he charged into the night sky with the Enchantress.
Flegg heard an indifferent voice in the air. “I caught her. She’s mine.”
“WTF!” Flegg’s eyes widened as he watched the flames turn into a dot of light in the west and disappear.
He subconsciously looked at Tony. “Mr. Stark…”
Boom! Swoosh!
There was an even louder explosion, and the half-damaged Hulkbuster armor rose into the air. “I wasn’t the one who caught her. It’s none of my business. Go find him if you can.”
The enormous armor quickly flew east and disappeared.
Flegg: “…Motherf*cker!”
Despite his cursing, Flegg could only obediently maintain order and inform the rescue team to hurry over.
Half an hour later, he heard his soldiers report one bizarre thing after another. “Boss, the metal cone is gone. There are only fragments left.”
“Boss, the body of Target 2, Incubus, has completely disappeared. There’s no sign of it.” “Boss, Iron Man and the Bat Squad didn’t leave behind any significant remains of their armor.”
Flegg put his hand to his forehead. “Then what did you find?”
In the face of this question, all his men fell silent. A moment later, one of them smiled bitterly. “We found a lot of survivors.”
Flegg sighed weakly. “Then do your best to save them and don’t cause any more trouble.”
Just as Flegg’s men started to sort out order in Grand Rapids, Luke flew more than ten kilometers with the Enchantress. He activated the stealth system and landed in a forest.
Walking into an abandoned cabin in the woods, he used his Batman identity to ask Tony, “Can the power be increased on this interference device?”
Tony replied, “Find the knob on the reactor and say, ‘Iron Man is awesome.’ Then, turn it clockwise to increase the interference effect.”
Luke: “…How awesome of you.”
Tony was pleased. “Hehe, it’s good that you know.”
Giving the tycoon the middle finger in his head, Luke cut the communication and surrounded the Enchantress with Annihilation first to prevent her from escaping. Then, he followed the tycoon’s instructions and slowly increased the power of the interference device. The Enchantress, who had been quiet, instantly sat up, and suddenly… did a split on the ground.
Luke’s lips twitched as he looked at the Enchantress. He grew even more suspicious. Was this thing for revenge?
Otherwise, why did this posture look so familiar?
But on second thought, whether it was the mental probe or the mental interference device, they were in fact directed mostly toward the Enchantress.
This was also the reason why her weird and tricky spells lost out to the cooperation between Luke and Tony tonight.
It wasn’t because the Enchantress was weak, but because Tony remembered her.
Luke was petty, and so was the tycoon.
He had been covered in dirt by the Enchantress at the subway station last time, and hadn’t even gotten the chance to take action.
When he arrived tonight, Tony had specially brought the “anti-Enchantress gear” with him.
Otherwise, Luke might’ve been able to seriously injure her, but it would have basically been impossible for him to capture her alive.
Thinking that, he looked at the Enchantress whose eyes had rolled back into her head, and thought of something.
Her Mental Strength had been severely damaged by the faith value. Now, with maximum output from the interference device, the Enchantress finally couldn’t take it anymore and lost consciousness, and finally entered Space 2.
Luke was relieved.
He had tried several times earlier in the air, but she had still been conscious and couldn’t be stored in Space 2.
Now, Tony’s interference device was the final straw which broke through her mental defenses.
Throwing the Enchantress into the special little dark room in Space 2, Luke finally heaved a long sigh. Finally, this tricky old witch had been taken care of.
