Chapter 97:
Location: Australia, Melbourne. 8:50 PM
Currently, Pietro was running on the surface of the ocean to reach to his destination. Australia's Melbourne.
He was alone at the moment and his flashing figure created a line of blurs since his speed can separate the water while running.
Silver blurry line cross the sea without stopping and he needs to get there to help on time. The reinforcements are also on the way, Wakanda's army have the responsibility to protect their nation and fight those Outriders.
Getting a few Talon fighters and Dragon flyers is the Wakanda's Special Air force. A few Air fighters are on their way, a little behind Pietro.
A couple of dozen minutes later, he touch the soil of Australia and commenced running on the ground faster than ever.
When he got to Melbourne, a few minutes later. Devastation caused by the Dropships landed on the middle of city of Melbourne. Evacuation plan was happening while police and soldiers fought bravely to protect the people.
Clusters of Outriders charge and slaughter people with their absolute physical power. Tearing flesh, biting with their sharp teeth and even charging through the defense lines of tanks.
Only special air force have the chance to fight back. Gory scenes as blue and red blood mixed, screams and cries deafening in Pietro's ears. Shield agents support the military with their artillery and Chitauri technology turned into energy weapons.
Many of these Chitauri technology have been researched by the governments and distributed around the world to be turned into different uses.
But only big companies and smart people have gained a breakthrough to turned those things into a energy weapons.
Shield agents fired continuously on the mindless alien creatures, nothing can stand on the artillery's way as they all burn and died after a little twitching.
Pietro didn't waste any more time as he ran to save a group of refugees, children and mothers have been targeted by mindless creatures.
The screaming got Pietro's attention so he quickly saved them by punching the Outrider away with his speed.
Since getting a combat uniform suited for himself, he requested a pair of vibranium gauntlets. His speed kills the enemies the fastest, in one line of enemies lay dead just just him passing.
The audience has taken noticed of silver blur saving them from time to time. No camera capture any figure but they know some superhero have arrive.
Quicksilver, the people thought. An unimaginable speed cleared the monsters from the nearest vicinity. Mindless creatures just fall down everytime a quicksilver pass.
The soldiers and law enforcement got a few seconds of breathing time. Pietro bought them a few seconds to go in formation and then save those needed to be treated.
The techniques Pietro learned is used at every give moment. Kicking and throwing a punch is so precise that his killing efficiency is more than most Shield agents with energy weapon.
He also save people from time to time by pushing them a little or carrying them in short distance.
When people got into formation, soldiers and agents have their weapons ready, police evacuating the civilians, Pietro decided to slow down a little. His speed may be superhuman and he had enhanced physique but it is not comparable to super soldiers.
The way he use his powers is very simple, the quicker he move, the surroundings slowed down. Meaning, his body is fast literally.
He doesn't use any magic or barriers. His physique was strong enough to handle his speed limit but it also manifest that everything inside him is fast.
When he runs, his muscle strength will protect him and skin took care of the temperature, the blood flows through his heart quicker and his heart would explode if he tries to run continuously without any rest.
The people are now on their advantage brought by a single man so fast that there is still no camera who have captured his image.
Pietro rapidly change his direction, ducking and sliding in every way, the only manoeuvre he don't use much is jumping.
Sliding in every way is much easier than jumping so he seldom jump into anything as his legs is his greatest assets.
Running on the side of walls and building help him on skipping on bumping to many people. As he can solve this ordeal with soldiers and agents help, they still needed reinforcements like now.
Buzzing sounds came from distance, Wakanda's Air Force announced their arrival as they will support to exterminate the mindless creatures.
When the hatch opens, a man who wore Black Panther suit (leopard) came down with a cool way of landing.
The audience are captivated by the landing and the new reinforcement, Pietro ran to his side and greeted him.
" Erik, you've come."
" My cousin let me go out the Kingdom and sent me here as your partner, but I notice you not needing support anymore" Erik Killmonger said.
" I may be quick but I still need rest and my endurance cannot keep up with my speed, and it is not like I came down from a Talon fighter, I even had to run from Wakanda to here." Pietro replied.
Erik look at his surroundings and nodded, the new dropship or spacecraft send more Outriders to terrorise the city and only people with high tech weapons and superhuman abiliycan go toe to toe to this Mindless alien creatures.
The two got on their stance for battle, Erik suit up and then run rapidly with his vibranium claws and super soldier physique.
Pietro became silver blur again and he passed through the enemy lines and start attacking the Outriders near the dropship.
The two's timely arrival with Talon Fighter and Australia's Air force, the mindless creatures numbers dwindled. Without any strong commanding figure, they are slaughtered in reversal.
