Chapter 103 "Link's Tragedy"

"The nuclear bomb fell into the hands of the Decepticons!"

This desperate news was like a bucket of cold water poured down on the Avengers members who were still immersed in Link's outstanding achievements and the timely support of his motorcycle warriors.

The appearance of Loki, the azure pillar of light that penetrated the sky and earth, and the Chitauri army that emerged from the dark space crack wormhole,
It seems that they have forgotten the existence of "Megatron", who recently invaded the global public network, made a "declaration", and caused a large-scale collective panic.

But Link, hanging high in the sky, wielding the alloy blade in his hand, chased after a Chitauri soldier.

"Pfft"

The sharp tip of the knife pierced through the chest of the unlucky Zeta soldier.
Then, Link raised the blade and cut it into two neatly.
The wriggling organs and grayish-white muscle textures were suddenly revealed, and even some obvious signs of unnatural transformation could be seen.

Facing the Avengers who were discussing countermeasures in a heated tone on the communication channel,

Link just smiled.
Because he never had such high expectations for humans.
Long before "constructing" this grand drama, Link had planned everything.

Human nature cannot stand the test.

Perhaps Nick Fury would not understand why those in power ordered the launch of nuclear bombs.
But "those involved are confused, but those who are on the sidelines can see more clearly."

In his previous life, Link knew it very well and understood the reason.

Regardless of whether the Avengers successfully curb the invasion of the Chitauri army and close the space wormhole,
This nuclear bomb has to be launched eventually.

As the strongest force that humans can currently master, if the nuclear explosion is successful, the space wormhole will be closed and the Chitauri army will be destroyed.

Wouldn’t it be perfect if we could eliminate these “freaks” together?

As for failure?

We'll talk about it when we fail.

They only need the presence of "heroes" when dealing with crises.

But when there is no need or when there is a chance to get things done once and for all, people will do such stupid things.

Because these transcendent beings, that is, the existence of individual force above the group,
Destined to be feared, envied and hated by people.

Even the Avengers, who are equally determined to stand on the human side, can be regarded as "necessary sacrifices".
As for Link, the alien, and the other alien monsters, they made great contributions, which is great, but that's where it ends.

Humans won't thank Link.

Likewise, Link doesn't need humans' thanks.

Therefore, Link, who anticipated all this, arranged for the Decepticons to secretly sneak into the SHIELD base in advance.

So the question is, how to ensure that the nuclear bomb can fall accurately into the hands of the Decepticons?

To be precise, how could a nuclear bomb happen to be deployed on a fighter jet disguised as a Decepticon?

The answer is simple - if Nick Fury could be ruthless enough to cover his own hangar with heavy firepower and saturation strikes,
He will be able to see the test report file that is enough to make him say "Fuck you" again:
Reporting to the commander, we have found a small number of parts belonging to our SHIELD among the large amount of wreckage belonging to the Decepticons.

Link's elaborate plan of "substituting one thing for another" was not just for the sake of a few small gains.
If it's just for nuclear bombs, it would be too boring.

As early as the period when he was being "studied" as "Megatron", Link had already laid an important back-up plan in advance, and named it "Skynet" with a sense of humor.

So it doesn't matter whether there is a nuclear bomb or not, it's just a "signal".
"When you say you have weapons of mass destruction, you better actually have them.jpg"

This tactical nuclear bomb with a relatively small equivalent will serve as an important piece of the puzzle and contribute to Link's next plan.

The perspective returns to the battlefield in New York City where the battle is still very intense.
"Optimus Prime, what are you waiting for?!"

Faced with Starscream's urging, the mechanical warrior called "Optimus Prime" was obviously a little dazed.

In those azure blue mechanical eyes, Tony Stark seemed to see some reluctance and helplessness, which were eventually covered by determination.

He raised his arm, and the arm armor cracked and deformed, the stack shrank, and a thick and long gun barrel extended out and slowly rotated.
A scorching breath gushed out, and a round of metal bullet suddenly flew out of the chamber, whizzing through the air.

Tony Stark's face was solemn, and his Iron Man suit responded quickly.
The ring-shaped palm cannon on the palm spurted out a bright beam of light, which not only gave itself recoil for displacement, but also deflected the incoming metal shells.

When Tony Stark wanted to try to attack the Red Spider who looked like no good,
However, he didn't expect that Starscream had already transformed into an F-22 again with a "cool click" and suddenly accelerated towards the streets of New York City, leaving only a bright tail flame.

"?"

Immediately, Tony Stark realized something was wrong and began to contact his companions who were fighting bloody battles in the block through the communication channel.

"Guys, pay attention! An F-22 disguised as a Decepticon is coming towards you. Be careful! The nuclear bomb is inside it!"

"We don't know its specific intentions now..."

Tony Stark's words caused the Avengers who were still fighting to fall into a brief silence.

This doesn't bode well.

Just imagine a bomb that could turn New York City into a scorched earth flying over your head. No one would be able to remain calm, right?
Except Link, of course.

At this moment, Link had just used a skill to distract himself.

Took over the body of the mechanical scout that had been waiting for a long time.

Scarlet light flickered in the mechanical eye, and a hideous and terrifying giant body moved slightly.

“Cool, snap, snap—”

The delicate mechanical parts flipped and collided, and the metal armor folded and contracted...

Then, without any warning, a flying machine with a shape that was obviously different from any fighter plane that had ever appeared in human history appeared in the sky over New York City.

The sharp and protruding shape, the ferocious spikes, and the shell that is completely inconsistent with aerodynamics.
There is no doubt that this is an alien fighter.

Its sudden appearance was something almost no one could have anticipated.

"Whoosh-"

But the piercing buzzing of the plasma engine's tail flame quickly attracted the attention of the battlefield below.

The silver-white metal fuselage, like a shadow of death, approached a "Leviathan" floating in the air.
“Cool, snap, snap—”

In just a moment, Link transformed again.
The domineering and ferocious appearance reappeared, and the broad sole of the foot stepped directly on the back of "Leviathan".
The sudden heaviness caused the unfortunate "Leviathan" to sink.
Then, Link raised his arm and extended his sharp alloy claws.
He directly grabbed the protruding bone metal armor of "Leviathan" and tore it off easily with his huge strength.
Just throw it aside.

The attacked "Leviathan" immediately tried to use the same trick again, and the lavender light flowed through the gaps between the skeleton armor plates.
But before it could finish charging, Link pulled out a strangely shaped heavy steel sword from his back.
The sword body is thick but sharp, and at the tip of the sword there is a hooked curved blade that protrudes like a devil's horn.

Holding the sword in both hands, Link swung down the heavy steel sword with great force.

With almost no resistance, it penetrated deeply into the armored alloy shell of "Leviathan".

Then, Link grasped the hilt of the sword with his backhand and pulled it out. The sharp hook-shaped tip of the sword "torn" out the control center of "Leviathan".

The scattered neural cables, the broken limbs of Zeta soldiers,

The continuously dripping lavender energy liquid slowly flowed along the blood groove of the sword.

Then, Link exerted force with his legs, leaped up suddenly, and soared into the sky.

The huge corpse of the completely dead "Leviathan" lost power and fell to the ground.

Link leaped into the air and landed directly on the Empire State Building, the tallest building in New York City and also a landmark building.
This century-old building has left a significant mark in the history of human architectural engineering.

At this moment, Link stepped on the collapsed rubble bricks.
Wielding the hideous steel heavy sword in his hand, Link's hoarse but slightly cold mechanical voice echoed throughout New York City.

"Decepticons, assemble!"

The Avengers below, who were also fighting bloody battles with the Zetauri soldiers, all raised their heads and looked up to the sky when they heard this familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar voice.

A moment later, an F-22 Raptor fighter jet took the lead and roared in, leaving a deep track in the city sky.
Some people who don't know the reason are still excited.
"Look! The fighter planes are coming!"

But the fighter plane that quickly approached Link did not launch an attack, but instead quickly transformed in mid-air.
Transformed into a humanoid mechanical warrior with an equally hideous figure,
It came to Link's side with a nod and a flattering expression on its ferocious mechanical face, which looked a little weird.

"Great Lord Megatron, your most loyal subordinate, Starscream, respectfully welcomes you!"

Then, the alloy armor on Red Spider's chest cracked and deformed, revealing the internal storage space.

A small but delicate metal projectile appeared, and on its outer shell was the familiar nuclear weapon logo.

"!?"

Some of the crowd who saw clearly what was in Red Spider's chest were suddenly in an uproar.
For the ultimate weapon that only appears in movies and video recordings,

They simply couldn't imagine what a tragic scene it would be if it happened to them.
You have to know that before this, there was only one country on the entire earth that suffered a nuclear attack.

Although many people do not believe this incident happened and question its authenticity - unless it happens again,
But this does not mean that there are really people who want to experience the feeling of being baptized by the high temperature of the sun and being bathed in extremely toxic and excessive concentration of nuclear radiation.

The nuclear dust that covers the sky and the sun will devour everything. All organic life within the explosion range of the nuclear bomb will be evaporated.
The powerful electromagnetic storm will cause electronic equipment within a radius of hundreds of kilometers to fail and burn out, and the strong shock wave will also shatter the internal organs of people within the range.

"Starscream, why have I been asleep for so long?"

"And what are you doing?"

Link's low and hoarse mechanical voice echoed, and then he stretched out his sharp alloy claws and grabbed Red Spider's head, with a malicious tone.

"Uh... Lord Megatron, please believe me, I will never betray you!"

Starscream spoke timidly, his tone full of sincerity.

He loosened his claws that were holding Red Spider's head in boredom.
"You'd better be,"

"Put away those silly little thoughts of yours."

Link's scarlet eyes scanned the area below him, and then he spoke in an excited tone,
"Soon, our new home will be born!"

"right here!"

"?"

Link's words were naturally broadcast live to the SHIELD aerospace carrier located 10,000 meters above the sky.
Nick Fury frowned, his thoughts racing.

"A new home? Birth?"

"What do you mean?"

So in this short period of time, he still hasn't figured out the meaning of Megatron's words.
But there is no doubt that it is not a good thing.

"Megatron, what on earth do you want to do!?"

A loud and confident voice echoed over New York City, and the red and white figure reappeared, approaching quickly.

It was——"Link".

To be precise, it is a disposable stand carefully designed by Link, a consumable item.

"【tornado】?"

Link smiled mockingly, his face full of sarcasm.
"Oh no, now you have become the same as those cowardly, hypocritical humans, so now I should call you - "Link", right?"

Facing Megatron's words, "Link" hesitated for a moment and responded quickly.
"Whatever you want to do, I'll stop you!?"

But a somewhat ferocious smile appeared on Link's face, but he said nothing.
A meaningful look,
The suffocating feeling, like being tightly entangled by a cold and poisonous snake, lingers in the sight of everyone who is watching.

The lackey, Red Spider, made a timely remark at this time, his words were full of disparagement and attacks on "Link".
"Hehehe, what Lord Megatron wants to do, is it something you [Tornado] can control?"

"Our plan will soon succeed. Then, Lord Megatron will once again be the hero who saves the entire Cybertron planet!"

"And you, you traitor to Cybertron, are not worthy of speaking here!"

Link raised his head, as if he had thought of something, but soon, his tone was filled with a hint of doubt.

"Do you want to..."

But before he could finish his words, Megatron disappeared.
When he looked up again, he saw a sharp sword piercing his chest.

There were flashes of electric arcs, and a large number of metal cables and sparks were emitted.
"Zizzizi..."

A large hole immediately appeared on Link's chest armor.
Megatron pulled hard, and a large number of mechanical parts scattered. The azure blue mechanical eye of "Link" gradually dimmed, and the hand hanging in the air gradually drooped.

Finally, he was kicked away, and his body fell to the ground, creating a deep pit.

"No--!!!!!"

"Fuck it!!!"

Tony Stark, who arrived late, was glaring.

Nick Fury exclaimed, he couldn't believe his eyes.

The rest of the Avengers and onlookers fell into deathly silence.

Some of the biker warriors in particular already had expressions of despair on their faces.

No one expected that Link, the hero who was supposed to save everything and turn the tide,
Just die?
