"Look here!"
Luca pointed at the screen, and Tony immediately recognized the person Luca was pointing at.
"This is the Spotted Man you caught before. Has he been released too?"
"But, where are the spots on this guy?"
Just as Tony raised this question, Jarvis promptly switched the screen to another scene.
On an inconspicuous street next to the large White factory.
A black circular hole, approximately thirty to forty meters in diameter, was continuously absorbing all surrounding matter.
Vehicles fleeing in panic, shattered and collapsed buildings, and even the surrounding ground were constantly 'falling' into this black hole.
And as this flat, two-dimensional black hole devoured these objects, it also continuously grew larger.
"This..."
Tony's mind raced, then he looked at Luca beside him in disbelief.
"You're not trying to say that Captain and the others have been swallowed by the Spotted Man, are you?"
Just as Tony said this, a familiar shield suddenly flew out of the black hole in the middle of the street.
Immediately after, the shield hit a power pole on the side of the road that had just begun to tilt with a 'bang', and then bounced back into the black hole at an extremely strange angle.
The two looked at each other, seeing this scene.
Well, no need to guess now. Nine out of ten, the rest of the Avengers were all inside this black hole.
However, neither of them knew yet what kind of enemy Steve and the others were facing inside this black hole, or why they hadn't been able to get out.
"We must go back and rescue Captain and the others as soon as possible!"
Tony looked at Luca with a serious expression.
However, Luca was unconcerned by his appearance.
"No, you don't even have a suit of armor now, what good would it do to go back?"
Tony's old Villa had been destroyed by missiles, and most of the armor he had built during this period was buried under the rubble.
Moreover, HYDRA's missiles were different from the helicopter missiles Killian and his group used to blow up the Villa in Iron Man 3; their power was astonishingly great, even the Underground Room was directly collapsed. Forget about digging them out, it's hard to say how many suits of armor would even remain intact.
Luca himself wanted to go back in person because he saw the existence of the Spotted Man and thought of a way to perform quick multi-location rescues.
Tony, in his current state, would be better off staying here to provide logistical information support rather than flying back to New York with him, enduring the wind.
However, no sooner had Luca finished speaking than a sound of engine flames spraying suddenly came from outside the damaged cabin.
Everyone looked out and saw a golden-red 'Rocket' slowly descending to the ground.
Immediately after, the 'Rocket's' outer shell quickly unfolded, and various internal parts ejected and pieced together.
In the blink of an eye, a five to six-meter-tall 'Anti-Boxer Armor' appeared before everyone.
Seeing this, Tony spread his hands, stood up from his seat, and walked out of the cabin, not forgetting to tease Luca.
"Now that my ride has arrived, what about you, kid? Do you want me to carry you back to New York?"
In reality, Tony had been preparing to call Veronica as soon as he learned the plane was about to be attacked, but his current air-drop technology wasn't very mature yet, not in terms of precision, but in terms of landing speed.
This was why Veronica had only just arrived.
However, this did not prevent Tony from showing off in front of Luca.
"..."
"You wait, I'm going to get a satellite deployment too!"
Of course, this was just talk. What he lacked at the moment was not portable means; the Universal Capsule was sufficient for everything.
What Luca lacked was merely transportation to carry himself.
So, although he said he would get a satellite, Luca was actually thinking of going back and getting some convenient take-off vehicles to store in the Universal Capsule.
He had always been stationed in the rear, commanding robots in combat, and had truly overlooked this aspect of the problem.
Seeing that Tony was already standing on a spray-painted floating platform, comfortably entering the Veronica armor, Luca gave a few instructions to Green Bull and the others beside him, then with a sullen face, he had Erha Mecha pick him up and fly into the sky.
However, after Erha Mecha took Luca out of sight below and ascended into the air.
To Tony's utterly astonished gaze, Luca actually pulled out a Dehydration Gun, aimed it directly at his own forehead, and turned himself into a block.
Subsequently, Erha Mecha skillfully caught the energy block and the Dehydration Gun, placed them in its hidden compartment, greeted the dumbfounded Tony, and then quickly flew towards New York.
Ten minutes later.
For Luca, this was just a blink of an eye.
When he opened his eyes again, he was already standing on the streets of New York, feeling as if he had teleported.
Erha Mecha stood beside him, and on the other side was Tony, driving Veronica, his face full of disbelief.
Luca looked at Tony with an expression of 'look at you, so unworldly', then took out a new capsule from the Universal Capsule box and threw it on the ground.
"Bang~"
A puff of white smoke exploded, and a 12-meter-tall boxing mobile suit immediately appeared before him.
Luca took a few steps and leaped into the open mecha cockpit, while Tony beside him was still muttering softly.
"So, this space compression can actually be superimposed? Wouldn't repeated compression cause the spatial structure to fail to withstand the disturbance, leading to the collapse of the compressed space? Or is this not space compression, but merely a beacon transfer..."
"Hey, Tony, stop muttering! Where's that Spotted Man?"
Luca, now inside the boxing mobile suit, had already connected to Jarvis's communication channel, and his question immediately sounded in Tony's ear.
Hearing this, Tony no longer dwelled on the issue of space compression and quickly said.
"That guy's gone. I had Jarvis keep an eye on him on the way, but unfortunately, his teleportation ability is too convenient. Just as we landed, he was lost from surveillance again."
"But the black hole that swallowed the street is still there, and its scope is still expanding. I've already had Veronica send two head components in to investigate."
"It's just that the space inside the black hole is very large, and there are too many building remnants inside. We haven't found where Captain and the others are yet."
Saying that, Tony directly transferred the image of the black hole's interior to Luca.
As Tony said, it was indeed like an endless White space inside, and because it had been continuously devouring buildings on the street, it now resembled a super-huge ruined maze, filled with pervasive dust and debris occasionally falling from the'sky'.
Relying solely on two spare heads from the Veronica mecha (a single component can fly, and the head has an optical camera), it was simply impossible to fully explore the entire space in a short time.
However, Luca smiled slightly at the sight~
He casually swiped a few times on the virtual screen in front of him.
The next moment.
The shoulder missile bay of the boxing mobile suit suddenly opened, and dozens of white blocks, resembling suitcases, were ejected into the air.
Immediately after, these dozens of white blocks suddenly unfolded three pairs of floating wings in the air, and in an instant, a continuous 'buzzing' sound filled the air. Dozens of suitcase-style small drones, in formation, flew neatly towards the black hole.
"Hmmph~ With this, there should be enough units for reconnaissance, right?"
