Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely

Chapter 921: Chapter 782: The Trouble That Came Knocking_4

“However, considering Mr. Stark’s safety, we hope to be able to maintain long-term contact with you in the future; here’s my business card.”

Colson pressed his business card onto the table and stretched it out toward Tao Yu.

“Do you want us to act as informants?”

“Look at what you’re saying, it’s just some intelligence cooperation. Recently, someone has targeted Mr. Stark; not long ago, he was attacked at a car race.”

As Colson spoke, he also produced a prepared snippet of a newspaper headline showing the scene where Tony Stark was attacked at the racetrack.

Since Tao Yu might have been playing a real-life version of GT5 at that time, he just happened to have missed this news.

He only felt that it might have been an attack by Whiplash, which, after all, was bound to happen, though perhaps at a different time.

But suddenly looking at the photo in the newspaper, Tao Yu’s expression paused slightly.

Besides Whiplash, there was another rather eye-catching figure at the scene, a towering body that was still standing upright despite being blasted in half.

Although this body was only half left, because he had seen Anbrella Company in this world, Tao Yu immediately associated it with the right subject.

Tyrant…

“Yes, when Marvel movies really started changing their style, it should have started around the time Iron Man just began to spin. Thor hasn’t descended yet, so Anbrella is actually really powerful…”

Previously, Tao Yu thought that Anbrella was just a Little Karami in a Marvel environment.

But then he thought, before the descent of Thor and the start of the Avengers, not counting the runaway Captain Marvel, Anbrella had tyrants, Lickers, Trackers, and could create zombie outbreaks.

Their combat strength is really off the charts…

S.H.I.E.L.D. at this time probably hasn’t even dug up Captain America yet…

——

After Colson had left, Tao Yu took out his phone and dialed the number sent in the email, and soon the call was connected, and a very gentle voice came through,

“Hello, Mr. Jack, this is Jarvis.”

“Mr. Jarvis, we’ve already arrived in New York, we should reach Stark Tower in about half an hour; I was wondering if Mr. Stark is available to meet us now.”

The fact that Jarvis could answer the phone did not surprise Tao Yu.

“Mr. Stark is free right now, but due to some recent attacks on Mr. Stark, we hope that you can pass a security check.”

“No problem.”

For a tycoon of Stark’s level, even under normal circumstances, it would be difficult to meet with him. Now that he has just been attacked, and even if he wasn’t injured, his willingness to meet people is already quite accommodating.

Tony has never been easy to get along with, and doesn’t really care much about others’ thoughts.

And just as Tao Yu was making the phone call and entering the parking lot, Minato Namikaze suddenly spoke up cautiously,

“Be careful, there’s something wrong with the person ahead.”

Airi Suzuki also looked at the man Minato Namikaze was talking about—a Caucasian man in a suit. At this moment, his briefcase had dropped to the ground, and he seemed to be shaking uncontrollably as if stricken with a sudden ailment.

The man was standing right in front of Tao Yu’s car.

This made Airi Suzuki involuntarily reach for the mask inside her jacket.

“Hmm?”

Tao Yu looked at the trembling man and couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.

The T-virus…

Creak creak~

Suddenly, the businessman, accompanied by a sound of bones twisting, suddenly looked up and then rushed towards Tao Yu and the other two people, apparently intending to pounce and bite.

“There’s so much happening just after coming to New York…”

Tao Yu knew that this was no coincidence; everything was related to his upcoming meeting with Tony.

“They want to bite us, and then have an outbreak when we meet Tony? But wouldn’t poisoning be simpler? There was a chance at the coffee shop earlier, um…”

Tao Yu thought about it; all four who were chatting had not drunk their coffee due to natural caution—could it be that they had already attempted it, and this was just a makeshift solution?!

Since the conversation with Jarvis hadn’t been hung up yet, Tao Yu quickly spoke up,

“Mr. Jarvis, it’s possible that the mastermind behind the attack on Iron Man has come. I think we may have encountered some trouble.”

Tao Yu did not shoot the zombie in the head but instead swiftly tripped it to the ground with a kick and then stepped on its back, leaving a ‘live capture.’

“Understood, I will inform Mr. Stark, please protect yourselves in the meantime.”

While Tao Yu was stepping on the back of this zombie, allowing it to struggle on the ground, two passersby at the parking lot came over at a jog, scolding as they approached,

“Hey, what are you doing?”

“Let him go.”

Although the two people who came over appeared to be just passersby sticking up for the underdog, Minato Namikaze also noticed the wireless earpieces on their ears, as well as their faint movements of drawing guns.

Instantly deciding to strike first, he swiftly pulled out his handgun and fired.

By the time the two had each drawn their guns, they had been shot and sent flying one after the other.

This level of reaction speed and accuracy surprised both assailants.

One of them quickly lowered his voice and murmured into the mic,

“This is no ordinary person!”

But the next moment, a bullet shattered his earpiece, and his earlobe was destroyed along with it.

Clutching his ear, his face filled with a touch of horror.

Immediately after, Tao Yu realized the reason for their fear as a sniper bullet blew one person’s head apart.

“Silencing a witness?”

Confronted with the situation, Tao Yu was slightly surprised. Did the sniper choose to silence the witnesses first instead of killing him and his companions?

That seemed to fit Anbrella’s M.O. just fine.

However, soon after, Tao Yu flicked his finger, and a button on his sleeve instantaneously shattered the next bullet aimed at silencing them.

The few people present could only sense a burst of sparks exploding in the air.

Tao Yu hadn’t blocked the first shot since the target wasn’t him or Minato Namikaze; it took him a moment to react, and he was a beat too late.

But having seen the attempt, he could easily deal with it now.

If the enemies wanted to silence witnesses, he wouldn’t let them. Perhaps he could extract some useful information out of the situation.

An ordinary person could not possibly have detected his earlier move.

As Tao Yu remained on alert and had already pinpointed the sniper’s location, the third shot never came.

Because a red figure streaked across the sky, approaching at breakneck speed with a boom.

With the red figure hovering in the air above them, the image of a lady with her hands pushing down on jet thrusters confirmed the identity of the arrival.

Tony Stark, Iron Man!

“Wow, I’d like to know what happened here?”

Iron Man landed slowly, taking no chances and not even lifting his faceplate, looking at a head-exploded corpse on the ground, the splattered Plasma, and the struggling lunatic under Tao Yu’s foot along with the small handgun in Minato Namikaze’s hand.

It looked as if Tao Yu and his companions were the aggressors.

But as Tony descended, his imaging system connected with Jarvis, had already analyzed the situation, and began explaining it to Tony,

“Sir, based on the scene, the deceased appears to have been hit by a sniper rifle. There is a sniper lurking, please do not lift your faceplate. Should we contact the New York police?”

“Contact them, and call my lawyer so we can bail them out…”

As a flashy top-tier billionaire, Tony understood the importance of correct procedures, which could keep matters foolproof.

Since he had already figured out there was a sniper around, his intelligence allowed him to quickly deduce most of the situation.

“Is this your companion? Or are they the ones trying to silence us? Can you let go of the person under your foot first?”

Tony, looking at Tao Yu, who was stepping on a zombie, walked over in his Iron Armor but stopped quickly, then pivoted to stand in front of Airi Suzuki,

“Beautiful miss, may I have the pleasure of joining you for dinner?”

While saying this, he leaned against a nearby car.

If it weren’t for the warning about the sniper, he probably would have removed his faceplate already.

But the next moment, Tony staggered as the zombie Tao Yu released pounced onto him, frantically gnawing at the Iron Armor.

Crunch crunch~

Zombie teeth scattered all over the ground, but also left Tony feeling embarrassed, as he shook off the zombie and flung it away.

With a bang,

It smashed into the side of a car, denting and wedging into it.

Then, turning back, Tony looked at Tao Yu somewhat speechlessly.

“You told me to let him go.”

Tao Yu shrugged with a smile, and Jarvis’s voice came through in Tony’s ear,

“Sir, based on the recent contact, we can confirm that the lunatic is dead, somewhat similar to those zombies Leon mentioned…”
