Chapter 2115 - 2115 The Chief Inspector Is Scary
2115 The Chief Inspector Is Scary
Seeing that his good friend had been smacked down, Tony turned around and fired a cannon to send the pudgy alien flying hundreds of meters. He asked, “Rhodes, how are you?”
Rhodes pulled his head out of the mud and wiped off the sod. “F*ck, my waist hurts…”
Tony was startled. “Are you hurt?”
Rhodes stood up and stretched. “It’s fine. It’s just a little bruised. It won’t paralyze me.”
Hearing that, Tony knew that his feelings had been wasted, and he couldn’t help but say acidly, “Don’t worry. If you’re paralyzed, I’ll get Bruce to make you lie down for three days before he saves you.”
!!
Rhodes said, “Oh, how considerate of you, bro.”
As he spoke, he flew up again, and the four or five machine guns on him fired wildly again. “Look, you won’t get a chance.”
As they quipped at each other, the reserve members of the Justice League clashed with the alien troop.
The alien troop had a dozen tricky superpowered members as the main force. The rest were very good at defense, attack and combat. These 300-plus soldiers were on par with 500 reserve members.
Still, it was impossible for these alien soldiers to surround the Avengers and Luke.
On the contrary, Knight, Steve, Tony and Clint killed a dozen or so of the initial group whose armor had been damaged at the very beginning.
Although it took a bit of effort, Steve’s vibranium s.h.i.+eld cut through the armor defenses of two soldiers; one of them had half his neck cut, and the other had his face cut in half.
Tony used a high-powered energy cannon to burn two guys up.
Clint and Knight aimed at the damaged armor and face.
With vibranium arrowheads, Clint’s arrows were much more effective than energy bullets at breaking through the defenses.
However, Luke wasn’t satisfied with this progress.
At this rate, Thanos’s army would find its feet once more.
Thinking quickly, he asked Frank for his opinion.
A moment later, a two-meter-tall female giant with bulging muscles charged out in a deliberate raid.
She grabbed an alien soldier that had been sent flying and wrapped her long arms around his neck.
Then, her strong biceps bulged as she fiercely squeezed the armor on the alien’s neck.
The armor barely lasted a second before it caved in.
Disbelief filled the alien’s eyes. He wanted to call for help, but realized that his neck was being squeezed through the armor.
He could only struggle wildly and try to jab the female giant behind him in the waist with his elbows.
But the female giant reacted faster than he did. When she sensed his intent, her legs came up to clamp him from under his armpits, not giving him any room to exert strength with his elbows.
Desperate, the alien soldier could only try flying up into the air before hitting the ground to dislodge the female giant.
Less than ten meters up in the air, however, the female giant crushed his neck first and, with an easy twist, took his head off completely.
The entire thing took less than ten seconds.
“Chief Inspector, well done.” Luke couldn’t help but praise her.
D.A. Jennifer replied formally, “Thank you for the compliment.”
Luke was amused. “Please continue working hard.”
Jennifer said, “I’ll do my best.” She then lunged at her next target.
The youngsters in Ursa Minor sent out a lot of memes again, that were basically all ‘shaking,’ ‘so scary,’ or ‘survived a disaster.’
‘Chief Inspector’ was Jennifer’s t.i.tle in the Justice League; she wasn’t interested in using some fancy name.
It was enough that all the team members knew who she was with this t.i.tle.
The Chief Inspector’s scope of authority didn’t clearly include the Bat Squad and Ursa Minor, but she would review some of the missions completed to ensure that no errors had been made.
In recent years, the Bat Squad had been deployed less frequently, while the number of Ursa Minor missions had increased significantly.
Naturally, young people weren’t as reliable as a bunch of middle-aged and old people. They didn’t make any major mistakes, but there were a lot of minor flaws, and the Chief Inspector would always grill them once or twice a month.
In a sense, it was like a naughty student being examined by a teacher.
When Jennifer had still been a lawyer, she had privately detained and interrogated the Elsworths’ lackeys, which was pretty much what she did with this bunch of kids.
When she monitored Ursa Minor, she didn’t cut them down, and mainly called attention to certain things.
However, n.o.body ever thought that this Chief Inspector, who had never partic.i.p.ated in any specific operations and whose existence was only tied to reviews and notifications, could be so scary.
In just a few seconds, she had torn off the head of an elite alien soldier. This woman… was indeed fit to be the Chief Inspector.
The Bat Squad simply sighed in the chat, and n.o.body said much.
Only Angel asked gloomily, “Can I really only pilot a battles.h.i.+p?”
Frank knew that her hands were itching after witnessing such a clean fight. He simply replied, “There aren’t enough people to pilot the battles.h.i.+ps to begin with, and we would be worried if we had to leave it to someone else.”
Angel simply shut up. There was nothing to say when it came to trust.
The Avengers could be trusted, but they weren’t proficient enough at piloting the battles.h.i.+ps, nor had they undergone long-term training like the Bat Squad and the Justice League.
Besides, if the Avengers who liked to fight on the front line didn’t appear, Thanos might be wary.
The Justice League was different. In the last few years, they rarely revealed themselves, and many people felt that the Bat Squad had retired.
Now that Knight and hundreds of reserve members had appeared, it was unlikely that Thanos would be able to tell whether or not there were members of the Bat Squad and Ursa Minor among them.
Thus, Angel could only watch as Jennifer unleashed her strength and tore apart the aliens in this battle.
In just three minutes, twelve members of the alien troop had been torn apart by the Chief Inspector.
The dozen or so superpowered soldiers in the alien troop also tried to suppress this terrifying female giant, but were stopped by the reserve members.
The remaining alien soldiers felt immense pressure.
After fighting for more than ten minutes, they had lost more than 50 teammates.
At this rate, the entire troop could be wiped out in two hours.
But that didn’t apply to these sorts of highly skilled opponents.
The aliens were being constantly crippled, while only some of the robots on Luke’s side and only several close combat superhumans had died.
In the next ten minutes, the alien troop might lose another 70 to 80 people.
In the ten minutes after that, they might lose hundreds of people.
In the ten minutes after that, it would be an irreversible wipeout.
Retreat? Dream on.
Since Thanos had given the order to attack, they had to attack.
Unless Thanos ordered otherwise, even if they all died, it had to be on the battlefield.
