Chapter 1306 Why Did We Come Here?
When the Sentinel appeared in the sky and effectively stopped the gamma bomb, Loki sensed something was wrong. How did another living father suddenly appear?
Is this atrium even safe to hack into?
However, he wasn't the only one who felt uneasy; Peter felt uneasy too. He hadn't expected Bob to suddenly appear as a sentry!
It's important to understand that once Bob becomes a Sentinel, the Void will whisper in his ear. The Avengers have tried to address this issue before. Initially, Tony thought it was a psychological problem. Since Banner received counseling from Professor Charles, his relationship with the Hulk has greatly improved. Therefore, Tony believes the professor can also solve Bob's problem.
However, the professor only glanced at Bob's mind and gave the answer that there was no way to solve the problem. The professor was unwilling to explain the specific reasons, only saying that the problem was not something he could solve.
Then the Avengers went to Strange again, wanting to see if telepathy could solve the problem, and if so, magic. But Strange's answer was more direct: if Earth were ever to be destroyed by the Celestials or Galactus were to descend, then why not try the Void? Maybe the Void would be in a good mood and let everyone survive?
In other words, Strange felt that the Void was more terrifying than the Celestials and Galactus.
In this situation, even if Bob intended to fight, theoretically he shouldn't directly confront an enemy with mind control abilities, such as Loki or the Mastermind. Otherwise, unleashing the Void would be disastrous. The Avengers didn't bring Bob along for fighting; they simply didn't feel safe leaving him alone at home, so they took him along.
So how did this person end up running out on their own?
The Sentinel didn't think too much about it. He blew a strong breath forward, clearing away the surrounding radioactive dust, but the powerful gamma radiation still affected the surrounding area. So the Sentinel looked around the battlefield, first piercing through Surtur, who had gotten up and started suppressing Pym, and then finding his most suitable opponent—Mangorg, who was fiercely attacking Mangog wearing the Destroyer armor.
In the blink of an eye, both the Sentinel and Mangog vanished from the battlefield. Peter blinked, feeling that this might be a good thing; it was safer for the Sentinel to be away from the main battlefield. Then he turned to look at Loki, who was controlling the absorption of human bodies and whose hands had transformed into thunder hammers: "You know what this means, right?"
"Loki!"
Thor, clad in the Destroyer armor, pounced and slammed his hammer into the absorber Loki was controlling. At that moment, Peter quickly pulled away, then heard Black Panther yell at him, "Spider-Man, Vision, you two go support Captain America and the others! Don't forget our original objective!"
Peter gestured that he understood, then used his web to catch Vision as he took off, and the two quickly flew away. Vision dragged Peter along to find Captain America and Tony, and soon after, Vision received a message from Tony.
Something's not right.
Peter suddenly said something, then looked at the ground: "Some of the craters on the ground are strange. They don't look like they were left from any battle; they're too clean."
Vision didn't see anything wrong with it: "It was probably left by a gamma user traveling, like Abomination or someone else. You know, Hulk often leaves similar craters."
Peter was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked Vision, "What if it was left behind by the Hulk?"
Hallucination: ? ? ?
"The gamma bomb was developed by Dr. Banner, and Hulk was the first gamma user. Now, Banner may attribute all of this to himself. He may think that he is responsible for everything, so he wants to solve everything himself. Don't forget that he thinks that both Abomination and the Leader are his responsibility."
This is obviously illogical; if we're talking about who bears more responsibility for all of this, perhaps Ross does. But that doesn't stop Banner from thinking that way.
Vision thought for a moment and understood why Peter had made that guess: "The Sentinels?"
The appearance of the Sentry was definitely one reason. In order to go to the meeting alone, Banner would definitely have to send Bob away. But more importantly, Peter saw the scene of Hulk trying to kill Captain America at Ulysses's place, so it was bound to be in that direction, which is why he thought of this.
After a brief moment of deliberation, Peter persuaded Vision to let them split up: "I'm a little worried about Dr. Banner. I'll go support him first, and you go meet up with the captain and the others, then we can discuss the next steps. The Sentinels should be able to hold off Mangog for a while. Without Mangog, the Council of Worlds isn't anything to fear. Our forces are no weaker than theirs."
However, Vision had reservations: "In that case, it would be more appropriate for you to go and support the captain and the others, since I can ignore..."
The effects of gamma radiation are present, but you cannot be completely immune to its effects, nor can you fight for extended periods in a gamma-radiated environment.
"You're faster, so you can find the captain quickly too. As long as the captain and the others can reunite quickly, we can send reinforcements in time." Peter pondered for a moment, "What I'm more worried about is whether Dr. Banner will make some irrational decisions. That's more important."
Vision didn't hesitate for long. He used all his strength to project Peter toward the direction of Cube Prison, and then flew toward the other side after watching Peter's figure fly past.
Peter, on the other hand, experienced a classic fastball attack, quickly approaching the Cube Prison. From afar, he could hear a thunderous roar. As he drew closer, he actually saw the Hulk, who was fighting the Destruction Squad. These guys, who had gained superpowers using magic crowbars, had now become gamma users, and each of them was exactly the same size as the Hulk. Relying on the abilities of their magic crowbars, they were actually able to fight the Hulk to a standstill in a four-on-one situation.
Oh, no, that looks like the Grey Hulk.
Peter only saw the Hulk's color under the gamma energy cover when he was about to land. He landed to the side and watched for a while as the Gray Hulk struggled in the battle. At that moment, a question popped into his mind: Why the Gray Hulk?
While he was pondering this question, the Grey Hulk, Joey Fister, finally managed to defeat all the enemies with considerable difficulty, knocking all four members of the sabotage team to the ground, and then tried to lift the magic crowbar that had fallen to the ground.
