Chapter 263 Attack

"Jarvis, help me collect all the information about the recent explosion."

"Okay, sir."

After all, Colonel James is Tony's friend, although he is not too keen on the Pentagon behind him.

However, for the safety of his friend, Tony decided to help him.

The Pentagon classified the explosion as a secret, but apparently, Jarvis's so-called confidential information was not as confidential as imagined.

Half an hour later, Tony had seen all the intelligence content about the nine reports.

As James said, the Pentagon pays close attention to explosions, and the collection of evidence from various accidents alone has exceeded hundreds.

Tony looked at one of the explosion videos recorded by the surveillance video, couldn't help but frowned, and ordered: "Wait a minute, move the scene back forward and amplify the sound."

In compliance with Tony's instructions, Jarvis then moved the contents of the surveillance video back to the moment before the explosion, and at the same time pushed the sound to the highest level.

"...Holy...Lord..."

The names mentioned in the video basically proved what Tony had been worried about before.

Tony is no stranger to the name Holy Lord.

After all, he had just acted with the containment experts from the foundation not long ago, and he was deeply impressed by the magical power displayed by the [Tiger Talisman]. At the same time, during the process of collecting the talismans, the containment expert [Long] also indirectly mentioned the existence of the owner of the talismans, the Holy Lord.

However, unlike what was said in the other party's introduction, it seemed that the so-called Holy Lord had appeared and began to unfold the prelude to destroy the world as set.

"This is really an unexpected development."

With raised eyebrows, Tony looked at the dense evidence in front of him and thought of the meaning behind it.

He couldn't help but sigh, and the expression on his face suddenly became a little heavier.

"Jarvis, package the collected content and send it to SHIELD."

Fortunately, he is not a lone hero. Although he has a certain degree of dispute with SHIELD on the way certain things are handled, Tony also knows very well that at least in terms of the goal of saving the world or fighting criminals, SHIELD The goals of the Bureau and even the Avengers are consistent with their own.

Ordered Jarvis to transmit information about the Holy Lord to S.H.I.E.L.D.

Before Tony could even breathe a sigh of relief, the phone in front of him suddenly rang.

"What's the matter, Happy? I have some important things waiting for me to solve."

Clicking on the screen, Tony looked at the picture displayed on the phone and couldn't help but urge.

"Hey, Tony, you have to take a look at this. A scientist came to Stark Industries and was having a meeting with Pepper. Everything was going normally until he was showing his brain to Pepper..."

"His what?"

Tony raised his eyebrows, and his mood that was originally perfunctory because of Happy's phone call became a little more focused.

After all, no matter how you listen to it, the content on the phone seems a bit too scary.

"Pepper seems to like his brain, Tony you should probably come over and check it out."

Inside Stark Industries, Tony's former driver and current security team captain Happy was speaking to Tony on the other side of the screen with a serious expression.

"This guy looks suspicious. I checked his information. This guy used to work for a private think tank called Advanced Intelligence Machine, but he left the job two years ago. Now this guy looks very suspicious. It’s suspicious, and the subordinate he brought looks like a little gangster..."

Here, Happy chattered about his suspicions.

On the other side, the virtual screen in front of Tony suddenly changed.

Jarvis: "Sir, connection from SHIELD."

"Let's do this, Happy, you are responsible for watching that guy, and tell me what you found when I have time.

"

"Sure, Tony, I'll follow that guy."

After a few perfunctory words to Happy on the screen, Tony hung up the call, and then waved to Jarvis to agree to SHIELD's request for contact.

After connecting, Nick Fury's dark face immediately appeared in front of Tony.

"Mr. Stark, can you explain the details about the Holy Lord?"

…

"So, can you tell me who Kingpin is?"

In the defender's temporary base, Joseph Joestar pretended to be unaware and asked Matt and others.

"..."

Faced with Joseph Joestar's inquiry, Matt was silent for a moment before replying: "Kingpin's real name is Wilson Grant Fisk, and he controls nearly half of the criminal activities in Hell's Kitchen and even the entire New York. He is also one of the most difficult opponents for the Defenders. We once used Jin Bin’s criminal evidence to send him to prison, but in the end he still relied on his huge network to escape easily and planned many crimes against the Defenders. The vengeance of the perpetrator.”

The defenders have tried to bring Jin Bin to justice more than once, but in the face of the underworld empire accumulated by his huge wealth, it seems that it is not as smooth as imagined.

"In short, Kingpin was a very cunning and evil guy."

As a private detective, Jessica had no intention of collecting criminal evidence and locking up Kingpin again. However, after his previous prison experience, Kingpin's various criminal methods became more secretive, and it was difficult to find what he had left behind. flaw.

The answers from the defenders made the look of worry on Joseph Joestar's face become even more intense.

"Listening to what you said, even as an ordinary person, Kingpin is very difficult to deal with. Now he has obtained the evil power of the Stone Ghost Face from Dio."

"..."

Joseph Joestar's words caused the defenders to fall into silence.

"No matter what, we must stop Kingpin," Matt said solemnly, clenching his fists and feeling the power of the ripples in his body: "Whether he is a human or a vampire now, in order to protect the safety of Hell's Kitchen, we must Stop Kingpin’s evil ambitions.”

Compared to the Avengers, the goals of the Defenders may not be as ambitious, but they also use their own methods to protect the peace of Hell's Kitchen.

"The existence of the zombies has been proven. Kingpin has begun to extend his tentacles into the streets and alleys of Hell's Kitchen. We cannot allow him to continue to infect the zombies."

Thinking of the increasing number of zombies recently, Luke Cage expressed his position.

"Everyone, what follows will be a battle that determines the life and death of Hell's Kitchen."

Turning his head to scan the people in front of him, Matt's super sense ability became more and more sensitive under the influence of ripple power.

"I don't like the place where I will live in the future, and there will be a group of blood-sucking guys living there."

Jessica raised her eyebrows and expressed her position.

"me too."

Danny didn't say anything, and raised his iron fist as a gesture.

The defenders each expressed their fighting stance, and then turned their attention to Joseph Joestar on the side.

Facing the gazes of the defenders, Joseph Joestar showed a smile on his weather-beaten face, and spoke without hesitation: "As a vampire hunter, eradicating vampires is one of my goals. What's more, this is called The Kingpin guy obviously knows some information that I need to know."

At the same time, with the addition of Joseph Joestar, the defenders will undoubtedly have more confidence in facing the next battle with Kingpin.

…

"Are you sure this is where Kingpin is hiding?"

Hell's Kitchen, Kingpin Building.

Joseph Joestar looked up at the tall building with a strange expression: "This place doesn't look like it has any hidden plans."

Danny nodded solemnly: "Although it's a bit surprising, according to the clues I got, Kingpin and his men are indeed in this building, and they haven't come out of it for several days."

Hearing Danny's reply, Joseph Joestar withdrew his gaze and showed his professionalism as a vampire hunter: "If everything you said is true, then it is very likely that there will be people in the whole building. People have been infected by the Kingpin and turned into vampires, giving birth to human beings."

Thinking of this, Joseph Joestar couldn't help grinning, making a headache expression, and murmured: "There are zombies in a whole building. Even I have never experienced such a battle situation. You can handle it." Yet?"

"We are ready to fight."

Faced with Joseph Joestar's concerns, the defenders had firm eyes and moved forward indomitably.

The entrance to the Kingpin Building was tightly closed, but this alone obviously could not stop the defenders from advancing.

Luke Cage reached out and broke the lock of the entrance door with a little force, then opened the door of the building, and what he saw was a dark scene.

Noticing the strangeness in the building, the defenders and Joseph Joestar subconsciously frowned, vaguely feeling a depressive atmosphere flowing in the building.

Snap, snap—

"It's no use. It looks like the lights in the entire building have been damaged."

After pressing the entrance switch, the lights in the lobby on the first floor of the building did not respond at all. Jessica curled her lips and quickly understood.

For vampires and zombies, a dark environment is obviously more beneficial to them.

"Not only the lighting, but also the layout of the entire building has been changed, completely blocking out sunlight."

Luke Cage glanced around the building and said.

The defenders chose to attack the building during the day, but it was obvious that Kingpin was well prepared and did not allow them to take too much advantage.

"Kingpin has already guessed your purpose."

Just when the defenders were cautious due to the various layouts of the building, a hoarse voice sounded. Then, in the darkness, dense figures appeared in the hall, vaguely surrounding the defenders and Joseph Joestar.

In the midst of the siege, a figure who seemed to be the leader stood up, grinning and revealing his final sharp teeth: "Now, the entire building is filled with transformed vampires and zombies. Just a few of you, There is absolutely no way to defeat us, defenders, I will suck all the blood out of your bodies."

Faced with the threat of the vampire in front of them, the defenders looked solemn.

Such a large number of zombies had obviously brought great psychological pressure to them.

"It seems that I have been underestimated." However, faced with so many corpses surrounded by zombies, Joseph Joestar remained calm. He twisted his neck, stepped in front of the defenders, raised his eyebrows at the vampire in front of him, and said calmly: "Matt, you have to remember that the ripples come from the blood in the human body, but other There are no restrictions on the medium of transmission, such as..."

Ignoring the threat of the zombie army in front of him, Joseph Joestar clearly regarded the battle in front of him as a practical tutorial to teach Matt the power of ripples.

I saw him placing his hands on the ground, accompanied by a soft cry: "The ripples of the immortal path are running fast!"

The next moment, in Matt's super sense, a huge ripple of power emerged from Joseph Joestar's hand, and was transmitted to the zombies in front at an extremely fast speed.

"Ah~"

"What?!"

Although the power of the ripples transmitted through the ground was not as powerful as using the body, it still caused huge damage to the zombies in front of them. The legs and even lower bodies of many zombies who were closer were directly hit by the ripples. Melting under the power, even the leading vampire suffered a severe blow and let out a painful wail.

"What kind of power is this and why would it hurt me?"

While quickly retreating behind him, stepping on the corpses whose bodies had been melted to avoid the damage of the ripples, the leading vampire uttered miserable questions.

As the distance increased, the damage caused by the ripples to the vampire was obviously weakening. While he looked down at his healed feet, the expression on his face was extremely ugly. Although the melted feet recovered thanks to the vampire's powerful self-healing ability, the pain caused by the feet melting under the ripples was still left in his body.

"The power that can kill you."

Faced with the questioning from the leading vampire, Joseph Joestar obviously had no intention of explaining.

"Everyone, come forward and kill him!"

The power of the ripples displayed frightened the vampire. He could feel that the power contained in this power might really be able to kill him as the other party said.

A change flashed across his pale face. The leading vampire glanced at Joseph Joestar's hands in fear, then gritted his teeth and ordered the zombies around him to attack. He ordered the zombies to come forward, but the vampire himself took a step back again, hiding himself in more shadows.

"Ripples run and hit continuously~"
