At this time, Rumlow was lying on the ground with blood all over his body with injuries.
The blood here does not come from the devil, but is something flowing from his body.
Of course, the situation Rumlow faced was not much more difficult than Steve's, but he didn't have a powerful mage like Dr. Doom around him to help.
In order to protect the Buster Building behind him, Rumlow had to start a chasing and encircling battle with the devil.
The purpose of the demons has never been to kill him as a Nephalem, but to destroy the Buster Building behind him.
In this case, Rumlow naturally fell into a huge passivity!
"Damn it, these demons are getting tougher and tougher."
Rumlow shook his head, as if doing so could clear his dizzy head a little.
"Actually, you shouldn't have refused my help in the first place."
Vera and Wonder Woman stood not far away and watched.
"Although I don't know much about demons, I know that they will charge in your direction even though they see you standing not far away.
These demons definitely don't know you."
Rumlow bared his teeth and smiled.
"I won't deny this, although our existence should be very important to the Burning Hell.
But demons may not necessarily be interested in us Nephalems, at least it is not uncommon for them to treat us as strangers before knowing our names."
Vera was extremely relaxed.
But her hand was always on the crossbow on her waist. If Vera wanted to shoot, the speed would be beyond what humans could calculate at this time.
"When the situation here is over, I will give you one of my favorite pistols. Believe me, as a shooter, you will definitely like firearms."
Rumlow wiped the blood on his face casually, but doing so did not make him look clean.
On the contrary, it made the blood stains messy.
"I will remember it. Now I just hope that someone can replace me soon."
After Vera finished speaking, she turned around and walked directly into the Buster Building.
"The human army is gradually adapting to the taste of fighting evil and demons. This is good news, but it is actually terrible."
Wonder Woman shook her head.
General Ross and Dr. Banner both left the battlefield of Buster Tower.
The places where the scattered scientists are located are being attacked by demons. So far, many scientists have been killed by demons in their own research laboratories.
Wonder Woman is not very satisfied with this result, and can even be said to be very disgusted with the person who made this decision.
"It's really terrible. We allocate defensive strength according to the importance of what scientists are studying.
But the intensity of the demon's attack is basically proportional to the importance of the scientists' research. I have reason to believe that our intelligence has actually been exposed to the demon's sight very early on."
Rumlow said.
There's something dangerous about his eyes!
As the person who personally brought out Hydra in S.H.I.E.L.D., Rumlow's belief and ability are beyond doubt.
The judgment he made at this time was actually the suspicion of those who had worked as agents.
"But the intensity of the demon's attack deviated from what you expected, and then there were victims?"
Wonder Woman asked.
"I don't know, I haven't been exposed to these secrets for a long time. But from my perspective, it may be that the demons are more aware than us of the threats posed to them by the things that scientists study."
Rumlow took off his coat, and then kept wiping the battle-scarred heavy hammer in his hand.
"It's a good idea, but according to my understanding, the research results that save human beings from being corrupted are what the demons most want to destroy.
But the most powerful demon who has come here now is inferior to you. Have you grown up to be an excellent warrior and transcended the boundaries of legend?"
Wonder Woman asked teasingly.
Rumlow's expression was not pretty.
Because he is very aware of the gap between himself and the legend!
"I'm not likely to be a legend, but I'm probably at the top of the elite."
Rumlow made an assessment of his situation.
Wonder Woman nodded, there was nothing wrong with Rumlow's self-awareness.
In Wonder Woman's eyes, Rumlow is indeed at this level.
"In fact, I think Steve's Crusader may be the fastest to become a legend."
Wonder Woman said casually.
This was not unintentional flattery on her part. Although her tone was casual, it was also her true thoughts!
Johanna is a legend, or every Johanna is a legend!
What Steve received was the inheritance from Johanna. As long as he continues on this path, it is normal for him to become a legend.
And Steve is already a legend in the human world.
This kind of belief and worship, as well as the process of spontaneously passing on his deeds, also meet the conditions for the birth of a legend.
"That's really good news. Our own legend is born among us."
Rumlow smiled happily, and he was sincerely happy for this.
As a former member of Hydra, he didn't feel that he was any worse than Steve in terms of skills and abilities. The only difference between the two was the super soldier serum.
But now, he and Steve are on almost the same starting line.
What Steve can do, he doesn't think he can't do it!
"The scientist upstairs has completed a phased research. I think you don't need to face the demons that may come again now."
Wonder Woman gave a reminder out of good intentions.
Then she turned around and walked into the building.
And in the shadow of the building, a man covered in pitch black stood there silently looking at Rumlow.
"Hey Blade, I almost didn't see you when you were standing in the shadows."
Rumlow greeted Blade, although this greeting was somewhat racist.
"I think so. After all, constant fighting will make your nerves too tense. The time when you have just relaxed is the most difficult time to regain vigilance."
The Blade Warrior said expressionlessly.
For him, the topic of skin color is actually harmless.
The title that really made him feel angry was "vampire".
Although he is a real vampire now.
"Tell me, what did Dr. Reed do to you? When I saw you before, you were only half a body."
Rumlow said in a loud voice.
"After they discovered that I seemed to be immune to corruption, I absorbed a lot of demon blood.
Thanks to the ability of a vampire, I am much stronger than before. The good news is that I am still myself, but it is undeniable that I also have some characteristics of the devil in my body."
Blade has no intention of hiding anything.
"Aha, this is really scary. I feel like your next step is to need angel blood and then transform yourself into a Nephalem vampire."
Rumlow smiled.
His idea is very simple, but it is indeed very feasible.
At least Dr. Reed has this plan, but they can't find an angel who "volunteers" blood in a short time.
And they don't know what angel blood means to vampires.
Perhaps when a vampire absorbs the blood of an angel, it will be like sucking the blood of a hot-blooded boy, and its mouth will be scalded and blistered.
"What Dr. Reed means is, let me not waste the blood you shed. After all, before trying the angel's blood, I need some excessive products to adapt to."
The Blade Warrior took off his sunglasses, and his eyes were a little red under the sunglasses.
This is all normal, because that's what vampires are like.
"As long as you don't mind, I don't care about the ownership of the blood flowing to the ground. I don't want anyone to collect this blood and then reinfuse it into my body."
Rumlow said meaningfully.
He was talking about SHIELD, which had collected a lot of Nephalem blood for testing.
Speaking of testing, Rumlow believed that SHIELD might have already tried to use the blood to complete cloning.
SHIELD is not without a record of doing this kind of thing, and the people who do this may not be just SHIELD.
"I'm just here to deal with this."
When the Blade Warrior spoke, the blood on the ground seemed to have found a home and stretched towards the direction of the Blade Warrior's wind.
Absorbing blood is like instinct for vampires.
It's just that Blade cannot absorb Rumlow's soul by absorbing this blood like Dracula did.
The barbarian's soul is protected by the Holy Mountain, and the Blade Warrior cannot yet cross this protection to contact Rumlow's soul.
All the blood on the ground entered the Blade Warrior's body in the blink of an eye. From the outside, the Blade Warrior seemed to have suddenly grown a little bigger.
"Then the next demon will be left to you? Dr. Reed's research is not over yet, so the demon's attacks will not end either.
At least keep the existence of Vera and Wonder Woman hidden for a little longer."
Rumlow sighed, and then took out a cigar soaked in his own blood from his pocket.
"If your previous guess is correct, there must be someone on the human side who cooperates with the devil."
Blade Warrior said.
"Of course, of course! But it is not ordinary people who can know Vera and Wonder Woman. Only warriors can understand their power, and only warriors can know their names.
I believe there are demonic spies in the building behind me, but I also believe that such spies cannot reach the level of Vera and Wonder Woman."
Rumlow said a little irritably.
While he stuffed the cigar filled with blood into his mouth, he kept using his lighter, which was also completely soaked in blood.
It's a pity that he can't light it!
"But that spy definitely belongs to the upper echelons of mankind. Otherwise, it would be unexplainable that the location of the scattered scientists would be clearly known to the devil and launch a targeted attack."
Blade threw his lighter as he spoke.
The blade of this thing is rarely used to light cigarettes. It is more often used to light a fire after pouring gasoline on the vampire bastard.
But there is no doubt that this lighter can ignite.
"This is also a screening. Although the Hydra I know has been dealt with, I also know that those guys will not fall so easily.
Hydra’s heads may not necessarily have the same idea.”
Rumlow's tone is particularly dangerous!
Every time he thought of Hydra, he always felt endless anger welling up!
"That's your story, but now you can take a break. I just needed a rival to complete my rehabilitation."
Blade smiled.
He drew his katana from his back.
This thing is no longer the silver product he used to clean up the vampire bastards before, but a product forged by S.H.I.E.L.D. using secondary Adamantium alloy.
The handle of the knife is made of vibranium, which can reduce the shock experienced by the Blade Warrior when chopping hard objects.
This thing has been boasted by people from SHIELD, but Blade prefers to feel the strength of the weapon in actual combat.
"If you plan to use that toy to fight demons, I suggest you pull out a steel bar with cement from over there."
Rumlow just glanced at Blade Warrior's katana, and then gave this evaluation.
The katana sword is indeed sharp enough, but it is actually not very useful in high-intensity battles.
Especially after Rumlow has personally experienced the strength of those metal demon bodies!
Although the body hardness of those demons is not necessarily higher than that of secondary Adamantium alloy, it is definitely not much different!
The devil's body is much stronger than imagined!
"If that doesn't work, I will consider your suggestion."
The Blade Warrior put on his sunglasses again, flicked his sword and walked forward.
Someone in his earphones was telling him the results of the metal detector in real time!
These people are SHIELD personnel, although they cannot provide much help on the frontal battlefield.
But they are definitely not freeloaders!
After the metal demon appeared, they quickly came up with a new detection method!
Metal detection is not difficult with modern human technology!
Rumlow also had this kind of assistance, which was one of the reasons why he was able to never let the demon break through the defense line during the battle to contain the demon!
"Okay, I'm happy to be at ease.
It's just that you'd better be mentally prepared, but you won't die even if you only have a little bit of your body left, so I don't think there is any need to worry about your safety."
Rumlow finally lit his soaked cigar.
After I finished speaking, I took a deep breath, but the cigar was not burning vigorously at all, as if it would go out at any time!
"Humanity needs more fighting power, and we are not the only ones."
Blade Warrior said something meaningful to Rumlow.
Obviously he knew something, but he didn't fully tell Rumlow his plan.
This practice of leaving half of the words is more like a prank.
"Humans need their own power, but this power also seems to be helping the devil."
Rumlow suddenly heard the insight plan of Hydra.
That thing, combined with the ammunition made by Green Lantern, seems to be able to clean out low-level demons.
It's just that Rumlow doesn't have a deep understanding of technical things. Although he is not a layman, things like algorithms are still too high-end for him.
