Chapter 427 Fierce Battle
Chapter 427 Fierce Battle
The massive body of the Iron Monger sank slightly, and the Gatling gun muzzle, which was already turning red, spat out even denser tongues of fire!
In an instant, a terrifying storm of metal, like the scythe of death, swept across the fan-shaped area in front of them, trying to block Peter's charge route as much as possible!
Fortunately, Peter didn't plan to get too close to the Iron Monger until he figured out the workings of the invisible barrier that blocked the palm cannon and whether it would affect him.
Almost at the same moment Peter's Spider-Sense activated, his dive trajectory defied the laws of physics, making a near 90-degree turn in mid-air. His body darted up and down, always managing to weave through the dense barrage of bullets with the slightest margin of error.
This feeling of being just a hair's breadth away from hitting Peter allowed him to use himself as bait, deliberately drawing Max's attention. This ensured that the Iron Monger's massive firepower would follow Peter's movements, keeping him as far away from densely populated areas as possible.
Of course, spider-sense can only issue warnings of danger; it cannot achieve true 100% avoidance.
Faced with saturation firepower, there will always be a time when Peter can't escape.
Furthermore, Tony's specially designed armor-piercing rounds for Iron Monger are more than capable of penetrating steel plates. Not to mention Peter's nanotech suit, which was severely damaged not long ago and hasn't had time to fully recover, and whose defensive capabilities are already inferior to the Iron Man suit!
This resulted in Peter always suffering a severe blow whenever he failed to dodge in time, even if he managed to avoid a vital point, as a cloud of blood mist would explode in the air.
Shoulders, sides of the ribs, outer thighs...
The nanosuit was constantly being torn apart, revealing gaping wounds beneath. The blood soaking into the damaged suit made it appear even more crimson.
Thanks to Peter's strong will, he endured the pain and maintained his high-speed movement. This prevented him from revealing any weaknesses and from being riddled with bullets by Iron Monger!
"Little Spider!"
Peter's injured appearance caused Tony, who was not far away, to widen his eyes instantly. Besides regretting that he had equipped Iron Monger with such sophisticated weaponry, he instinctively activated his suit, intending to interrupt the energy buildup and step forward to relieve Peter's burden.
"Don't worry about me! I can manage!"
As if he had anticipated Tony's thoughts, Peter shouted loudly before Tony could act.
The sound seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, carrying obvious pain and wheezing.
"While his attention is on me, I'll find a way to disable his weapon or destroy that portal!"
Tony's eyes were blazing with anger, but he forced himself to remain calm.
Peter risked his life to create this opportunity, and he absolutely could not waste it!
So, after taking a deep breath and forcing himself to calm down, Tony dodged the stray bullets that occasionally swept towards him while keeping a close eye on the Iron Monger.
"Jarvis, scan the Iron Monger weapon system's energy connection points, as well as the portal's energy projection path and its connection to the Iron Monger itself! Locate the weakest point, the one most likely to be interfered with by external attacks!"
"Scanning... The target's external energy field is severely interfered with, but based on the energy flow model, it is speculated that there is a mechanical interface at the connection between the rotating motor and ammunition supply system of the right arm Gatling gun and the main armor, where the energy shield may be relatively weak. The energy beam of the portal is highly concentrated in the area where it connects to the reactor, but because it is currently outputting energy, the stability of the local energy field may be affected by output fluctuations, resulting in unstable cracks."
"In other words, attacking the weapon's connection point has a higher success rate. Interfering with the portal's energy source is risky, but could it kill two birds with one stone?"
"Theoretically possible, but requires extremely high precision and timing. It is recommended to prioritize disabling its attack capabilities to reduce the threat to civilians and Spider-Man."
"That's settled then." Tony's eyes sharpened. "Spider-Man! Keep him occupied! I'll find an opportunity to attack the weapon base on its right arm! Create a chance for him to calm down a bit!"
"clear!"
Peter gritted his teeth and responded, his body tracing a blood-stained arc in the air as he deliberately darted towards the Iron Monger's left blind spot. At the same time, he shot out a spider silk thread, which stuck to a distant building, feinting that he would use the thread to drastically change direction.
