Chapter 119 The Battle of London ([-])

Recovering from the nightmarish experience of being manipulated, Namor was extremely angry.

How could the noble sea prince of Atlantis become a slave to other people's hearts.

He must let the "White Queen" who attacked him in the dark taste the anger from the deep sea.

It's just that Namor has matured too much during the month on land, and knows how to restrain his inner impatience.

Especially the result of his disastrous defeat in the confrontation with the "White Queen" in the spiritual field made him understand that his previous arrogance and disdain were unreasonable.

Originally, when he was listening to the pre-war intelligence, he thought that the opponent's mind manipulation ability was not enough to shake his steely will.

But the facts just now obviously slapped him in the face.

So after a little hesitation, Namor still chose to let Howard deal with the White Queen according to the pre-war arrangement.

As for how his new teammates will handle each other, he doesn't know, or all the other Avengers don't know.

But fighting side by side for half a month made them firmly believe in Howard when they were willing to deal with this kind of issue.

Stepping heavily on the ground, with the help of the reaction force, Namor leaped into the air at high speed, and after a little inspection of the battle situation under his feet, he flew towards a battle group that needed support.

In one last look back, he saw Howard bypass several mutants who had survived the explosion, and burst through a window into the interior of the castle.

There, in the detection module carried by the steel suit, it is constantly giving hints of the existence of high-energy reactions.

In front of the White Queen, a mechanical armor abruptly blocked her way.

The gold-and-red shades that father and son love together are paired with some details that Howard added, such as pure black flow patterns.

Compared with Tony's style, this steel suit is as handsome and charming, and it also adds a bit of mystery and solemnity.

Obviously, this is the embodiment of Howard's coquettish and old-fashioned personality.

In the long passage of the castle, the steel battle suit and the diamond body stand at a distance. If you ignore the roars and screams from outside, it can be called a very beautiful picture.

But at this time, the White Queen, of course, has no intention of appreciating all this.

Compared to Curran, the arrival of the Avengers really made her feel relieved.

But now, her sense of belonging to the Hellfire Club has dropped to a freezing point, and she no longer has the idea of ​​fighting to protect the club.

So after the unsuccessful attack on Namor, the White Queen was about to leave the battlefield.

Maybe there is no way to run away directly, but before Selene appears, she can completely hide and observe the situation without making a move.

With this thought in mind, after being stopped by Howard, the White Queen became even more resentful.

I don't even intend to fight with you, why do you still chase after her? !
So without hesitation, the White Queen canceled her diamond body, and then directed the power of the mind to Howard in the mechanical armor.

She is very clear that such a decision is very risky. If the enemy on the opposite side is the first to attack, then she will not be able to resist at all after disarming her diamond-shaped body.

But the White Queen still chose this way, because her countless previous combat experiences told her that the speed of telepathy surpassed everything else.

And the fact was exactly as she had expected. In the face of her mind manipulation, Howard was the same as Namor, and even behaved even more unbearably, without even the slightest ability to resist.

Under the turbulent psychological impact like a wave, Howard's inner instinct of defense collapsed at the touch of a finger.

In the blink of an eye, the thoughts in the surface area of ​​his mind, as well as the hidden knowledge and memory in the deep area, were clearly perceived by the White Queen.

Of course, this also includes the means Howard prepared to deal with the White Queen.

In his opinion, the White Queen's ability is indeed too buggy, and she is the natural enemy of all intelligent creatures, but at the same time, it is not without flaws.

First of all, the opponent's two abilities, telepathy and diamond body, cannot coexist.

Secondly, all of Howard's combat abilities come from the steel suit and the weapons inside the suit.

And these are things that the White Queen cannot manipulate.

So he relied on his genius wisdom to invent a small device to detect his state of consciousness.

When the device was activated, Howard had to keep silently saying 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3...

Because all inner activities will be reflected in the characteristic waves of brain waves, and the characteristic waves of meditation 123 were entered into the device by him early on.

So as long as the comparison is performed at a high frequency, the first time his consciousness defense line is broken by the White Queen, he falls into a coma.

His abnormal state will be detected by the device, and then the attack module of the suit will be automatically activated, shooting bullets around him.

In order to carry out mind manipulation, the white queen in diamond form must be released. Faced with such an unexpected attack, there is a high probability that she will be hit and immediately lose her fighting ability.

It can be said that, under the premise of being unable to create artificial intelligence, Howard thought of the most effective method in order to fight against the White Queen.

However, he still underestimated the power of the White Queen.

From the fall of his own defense line, to the forced reading of the thoughts in his mind.

Even in the realm of consciousness, where it is difficult to accurately perceive the passage of time, Howard knows that it all happens extremely fast.

What followed was even more disappointing to him.

In the confrontation of wills, Howard clearly felt the disdain expressed by the White Queen.

Extremely calm, after the other party learned of his plan, he waited leisurely in the realm of consciousness for a while.

After that, the part of Howard's mind and will that had been manipulated by him, according to his own habits, continued the number he silently recited before without any exception.

...3...

And faced with such a similar, or exactly the same brain wave.

The detection device was undoubtedly deceived. As for the attack module, of course, there was no chance to activate it.

Sure enough, it still failed?

Under the siege of the White Queen's spiritual power, the last area of ​​Howard's sanity is about to fall.

But at the last moment, which indicated the failure of his battle plan, what he showed was only disappointment, not despair.

Because in the dark, he had already heard a familiar voice telling him that there was no need to worry about the White Queen's psychic attack.

And that's the ultimate reason he dared to make a promise to the rest of his Avengers teammates.

Now, since Howard's own efforts were unsuccessful, then that existence should appear.

When he thought of this, his will, which had been persevering to the limit, finally couldn't hold on.

After another spiritual shock from the White Queen, Howard's last bit of sanity went to annihilation.

After easily handling the Tin Woodman in front of her, the White Queen showed a slight sarcasm on her face.

Perhaps in the world at this time, there are many terrifying monsters that she has never encountered before.

But among them, those avengers who have only recently become famous are definitely not included.

Now the other party took the initiative to launch an attack on the Hellfire Club, and bumped into her hand without thinking.

Then he had to borrow the other party's blood to wash away the long-stained reputation of the White Queen.

With a slight movement in his mind, Howard, who was lifeless in his pupils, was about to follow her order, remove the steel suit on his body, and then jump down from the window next to him.

This will also let the Avengers and mutants who are still fighting for their lives outside know that the battle here has already been decided.

But at the moment when the order was issued, the White Queen's face showed a kind of silent panic.
