At the heavily damaged deck breach.
Caesar stood alone at the edge of the deck, his upper body bare, revealing his chiseled abs, with his tanned skin radiating heat.
His chest rose and fell unevenly, his fists still clenched. Despite his small stature, which was less than a meter tall, he now appeared like an invincible war god.
As he watched the Giant Venom fly out of the Helicarrier, his hulking form splitting into recovery forms of the original Venom and the Hulk, Caesar took a deep breath, his highly tense body and mind finally relaxing slightly.
But as soon as he relaxed, waves of pain, hunger, fatigue, and the emptiness of depleted energy washed over him like a tide.
Although defeating the Giant Venom had seemed simple and straightforward, the truth was that the battle had drained all of Caesar’s strength and reserves.
Including the thunderous energy he had absorbed from Thor’s hammer, which had been converted into life force and strength within him, leaving him completely drained.
Without the energy from Thor’s hammer, the outcome of this fight to the death would have been uncertain.
“So this is how it ends…”
Sweat poured down Caesar’s body as he felt his strength drain away. It was the first time since his recovery that he had felt such weakness and helplessness.
His eyelids felt heavy as if weighed down with lead, and his consciousness became increasingly blurred…
Despite the powerful blood coursing through his veins and his formidable physique, his body was still not fully developed.
Caesar slowly closed his eyes, his body tipping forward as he fell through the gap in the deck. As he left the Helicarrier, he was caught in the fierce wind, his golden hair tossed about in disarray.
The Helicarrier’s descent was slightly slower than Caesar’s free fall due to the assistance of two engine vortex thrusters.
The overturned Helicarrier and the unconscious Caesar.
As the two fell, and the altitude dropped to around three thousand meters, and the forests, lakes, and towns below became increasingly clear.
People working on the outskirts of New York could easily see it that morning.
It was like a fortress, but bigger; like a smaller island, but with sharper edges – the Helicarrier, a technological marvel of the highest order, descended from the sky, leaving a thick plume of black smoke in its wake.
In the main cockpit.
“Can we restart the engines in time, Hill?” Fury’s face was grim as he watched the approaching ground below, then glanced at Hill at the controls.
Hill’s face was extremely pale as she shook her head. “It’ll take more than a minute. We won’t make it. In half a minute the Helicarrier will hit the ground.”
“Is that it, then?” Fury smiled bitterly, his hands gripping the railing so tightly that his knuckles turned white.
Once the Helicarrier crashed, the explosives on board would undoubtedly detonate, wiping out everything within a dozen kilometers.
The SHIELD personnel and Avengers on board, as well as those on Loki’s side still on the Helicarrier, would be devastated. With no one to stop him, the Alien Legion would occupy and slaughter this planet after opening the interstellar portal.
By the time this battle was over, humanity would be on the brink of extinction!
“Damn it.”
With one hand gripping the door handle, Steve’s face flushed slightly as he hung in the doorway, holding Thor and Eddie in his other hand.
His communicator suddenly beeped. “Captain, are you there?”
“Sam,” Steve replied quietly.
“Captain, are you in the main cockpit? I’m coming to rescue you!”
Outside the descending Helicarrier, Falcon Sam wore goggles, his iron-like wings spreading as he dived headfirst, searching for the main cockpit.
“No, don’t come in!”
Steve refused resolutely while looking at the altitude which has now been down to two thousand meters, and saying firmly, “If you come into the Helicarrier to rescue me now, you won’t be able to get out! If we are destined to die here, then you will be one of Earth’s surviving heroes!”
“Captain!” Sam gritted his teeth. “I can’t just watch you die!”
“We’re not waiting to die.” Steve said in a deep voice, “We’re waiting for hope.”
“Hope?” Sam repeated, not understanding.
“Yes, hope.”
Steve took a deep breath as he looked out of the window at the still descending altitude, he was now able to see the distant forests and lakes, and muttered to himself, “The combat vibrations have stopped, which means he has won.”
“Caesar said he could solve this crisis. What is he waiting for now?”
At that moment, about a thousand meters in the air, the unconscious Caesar continued to plummet.
In the face of the howling wind, Caesar’s eyebrows twitched, and then he struggled to open his eyes. He looked down at the ground not far below, then up at the still descending Helicarrier, and his mind instantly cleared.
“Right, I can’t stop here. I still have to stop the Helicarrier from crashing…”
Caesar muttered weakly, but his body was too exhausted and he had no energy left. Not only was he unable to attempt to save the falling Helicarrier, he couldn’t even maintain his usual flight.
“I was too careless, far too careless, to use up all my energy and strength.”
Caesar clenched his fists in frustration.
“Is this the end?” The same question that plagued Fury flashed through Caesar’s mind.
Suddenly, an orange-yellow light fell in front of Caesar, filling his vision with a blinding golden glow.
“This is…” Caesar’s eyes widened in surprise. He saw the dawn breaking through the overcast sky, with bright sunlight shining down and bathing his bare torso.
‘Thump!
Caesar’s once-weak heart suddenly beat strongly, his breathing becoming more regular. If he could see inside his body, he would see that his body had been transformed into a massive energy conversion factory, hungrily absorbing the sunlight pouring down.
“My strength… is returning.”
Caesar’s eyes sparkled like stars as he breathed out a sigh of relief, unclenching his fists before clenching them with renewed determination.
With a sudden twist in the air, he stopped his downward momentum and used the air as a platform to push himself upwards, accelerating towards the sunlit Helicarrier.
Reaching the bottom of the Helicarrier, Caesar held his breath and placed his small hands against the steel’s exterior.
Pushing with all his might!
Crack! Crack! Crack!’
In an instant, the steel exterior collapsed inwards under the pressure of immense force.
Caesar’s entire body was almost embedded in the structure, yet he remained silent, concentrating all his strength into his arms, pushing the Helicarrier upwards with the force of his flight!
The Helicarrier, weighing hundreds of tonnes as it was pressed down on Caesar, continued to roar downwards, sliding several hundred meters in the blink of an eye.
“Stop right there!”
Seeing the ground only a few hundred meters away, Caesar shouted, his torso swelling with muscle, his arms bulging with veins, his whole body buried in the outside, pushing upwards with all his might.
‘Buzz-‘
The force formed a palpable shockwave, spreading from Caesar along the outside of the Helicarrier!
