Chapter 15 - Chapter 15: Beating the Two Giants

Fury remained unfazed: "That's easier said than done. We're not allowed to use lethal weapons, so no matter how many more people we send, it'll be useless."

Agent Hill found the situation perplexing. She frowned and said, "But the Security Council insists you must act. They want you to handle it and move them anywhere but Manhattan."

Fury glanced at the screen nonchalantly: "Tell the Security Council this is beyond our capabilities. We can only provide limited support."

Fury tapped a document, composed: "General Ross's Superhero program was approved by the Security Council. Now that it's causing trouble, they want us to clean it up? Do they think we're toilet paper to wipe up their mess? Besides, my team's expertise is in intelligence gathering and handling special incidents. When it comes to fighting, the generals at the Pentagon are the specialists."

"Understood, Director. I'll inform them."

Hill turned and left.

On the battlefield, Iron Man Tony Stark arrived. Clad in his newly upgraded, gleaming red and gold armor, he exuded confidence.

"Hey! You two big guys looking to cause trouble?" Tony taunted, aiming his repulsor rays at Hulk and Abomination, firing energy beams simultaneously.

Hulk turned, eyes blazing with anger and destruction. With a roar, he leaped into the air, charging at Tony with his massive fists. Tony reacted swiftly, utilizing his armor's propulsion system to deftly dodge Hulk's heavy blows.

Meanwhile, Abomination sneered, hurling a car parked on the street at Tony. Tony's eyes narrowed as he quickly ascended using his armor's flight function to evade the car's ferocious impact.

In the air, Tony used his armor's enhanced agility to adjust his stance, delivering a punch to Hulk while still airborne.

Hulk took the hit and fell but quickly rose again, angrier than before. Tony's punch hadn't hurt him but only fueled his rage.

Abomination leaped, lunging at Tony. Tony barely dodged, but Hulk seized the opportunity, grabbing Tony's leg.

"Oh my god!"

Hulk lifted Tony and slammed him with a powerful fist, sending him crashing into a distant building.

With Tony down, Abomination took advantage and launched an attack. The two giants brawled fiercely.

Abomination delivered a strong punch to Hulk's jaw. Hulk collided with Abomination, gripping his arm, roaring in pain and anger. Abomination's blows intensified, finally sending Hulk flying with a heavy hit, crashing through several buildings before stopping.

"Weak! You're really too weak, is this all you've got..." Abomination taunted, charging after him. But Hulk's eyes flared with light, growing angrier and stronger.

With a roar, Hulk punched. Abomination couldn't dodge, taking a heavy hit to the jaw.

Abomination staggered back, then charged forward in fury to attack.

Hulk kicked Abomination fiercely, sending him flying. Abomination crashed through buildings before stopping.

Hulk grew stronger with each fight. Abomination charged again, and the two giants clashed once more.

Metal shattered, and concrete flew everywhere.

Unfortunately, the fleeing crowd had barely escaped when the giants resumed fighting in their vicinity. A child fell, crying out for help, "Help me! Dad, Mom, where are you? Who can save me?"

Tony had recovered by now. His armor was heavily damaged, but at least the flight system was still operational.

He knew he needed outside help but didn't dare act recklessly.

"Jarvis, contact Superwoman, quickly," Tony said.

"Immediately, sir," Jarvis replied.

In less than ten seconds, a figure descended from the sky. Alex Rivers appeared high above, surveying the chaos below.

Alex saw Tony and asked with deliberate humor, "Need help? You look pretty beaten up."

Tony gave a dry laugh: "I certainly do. But it's best to try not to cause any more damage. I should have informed you earlier."

Alex said, "I'll do my best." She swooped down, heading straight for Hulk and Abomination.

"You two, it's time to stop!" she warned loudly. TV cameras turned to capture the heroic Superwoman's arrival.

People watching the live broadcast were immediately excited to see the beautiful and heroic Superwoman in action.

"Haha! Superwoman is here!"

"Superwoman is here! She's currently the most powerful superhero!" In a public hall where the broadcast was live, the audience buzzed with excitement.

"Yeah, I just don't know if she can beat them."

"Her superpowers are unmatched, she can easily subdue Hulk and Abomination!" a true fan retorted.

"Look! Abomination and Hulk have stopped fighting! Sure enough, once Superwoman arrives, no scoundrel dares to mess around anymore!"

"Ding! Congratulations to the Host for gaining 7 prestige points."

"Ding! Congratulations to the Host for gaining 39 prestige points."

"Ding! ..."

Seeing this, S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Nick Fury quietly put away his Captain Marvel pager.

"Superwoman is here. I'd like to know how much your strength has increased," Fury thought, planning to order his team to analyze Alex's strength for a clearer understanding.

Hulk and Abomination paused, turning to face the unexpected visitor.

"Superwoman? You're also a product developed by the military, and you can even fly. I want to see how powerful you are. Killing you will surely give me a great sense of accomplishment," Abomination said, losing interest in Hulk.

Alex looked at the two giants, ready to take them both on but mindful to slow her movements for the audience to see clearly and prolong the fight to gain more prestige points.

Alex taunted, "You two monsters, come at me together!"

Hulk roared, attacking first, leaping towards Superwoman.

But Alex deftly dodged, landing a super-fast punch to Hulk's face, sending him flying back to the ground.

Hulk rose, angrier, and lunged at Alex again. Alex landed, dodging Hulk, and faced Abomination.

Seeing this, Abomination charged forward, his massive fist swinging. Alex met it with her smaller fist, and the two collided.

Some timid audience members, unsure of Alex's strength, couldn't watch. They feared Superwoman would be severely hit, but reality proved the opposite.

As the fists collided, the audience held their breath. A 'boom!' resounded, and a violent impact shook the surrounding space, causing the scenery to tremble.

Abomination clutched his injured hand in pain, staggering back over ten meters, leaving a trench in the ground.
