The military's air force arrived belatedly, but was still unable to do anything to deal with Namor underwater.

As the waves continue to push toward the city center, the water level in the city is getting higher and higher, and Namor's home field advantage is getting bigger and bigger.

The big guys in the city had already fled in private helicopters as soon as the incident happened, but the monks who could escape could not escape from the temple, and their property was still here.

After confirming their safety, the big shots who arrived at the safe zone all thought of their own property, so they couldn't sit still and called powerful government figures to put pressure on them and demand a quick resolution of the matter.

But the things under the water, planes and tanks were useless, so we had to find professionals to deal with abnormal events, so the black braised eggs appeared again.

After Nick arrived at the scene, he first called Tony and Peter over and asked them to lead a team of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents into the water for combat, but they both refused in unison.

Today, Tony and Peter do not have the consciousness of being a superhero. Saving people or something is influenced by their own moral values, but if they are asked to sacrifice their lives to be heroes, then it is better to avoid it.

"That guy is a water fish. You should find some fishermen to catch him instead of letting us go to the sea to work."

"Tony, this involves the life and property safety of tens of millions of people in New York..."

Tony didn't accept his words and interrupted him directly, saying: "So hurry up and ask the tax collectors to come over and use them as bait. As long as you catch the fish, I will make it into sashimi for you to eat."

"Tony, he has suffered a loss just now and will not be easily fooled. We can only take the risk and deal with him."

"It's not us. We've already gone down there just now. It turns out that we can't beat him underwater."

"You two are both superheroes, Thor and Iron Man. If you can't beat them, who else can?"

Tony and Peter looked at each other and said in unison: "My master can do it!"

Nick's face turned even darker. Of course he knew that Zhan Liu could do it, but the problem was that he was worried that Zhan Liu would cause another big incident.

Things in New York are already dire. If Zhan Liu does something more extreme, Nick will go crazy.

He thought about it carefully and felt that this time there would be no big event like the explosion of the earth. At worst, let Zhan Liu find the Supreme Mage again and turn back time again.

"Okay, let's call Mr. Zhan."

"Okay, Jarvis, answer my master's call."

Zhan Liu stood in the sky and saw everything clearly. He suddenly received a call from Tony and immediately knew what he was planning.

But today's matter was originally intended to be a make-up lesson. How could he end up causing damage at this time?

So, he hung up the phone, thought about it, and turned it off again.

The few people below looked at each other and knew exactly what this meant.

Tony spread his hands and said, "With great power comes great responsibility. Now it's time for the big guys to come up with a solution, such as calling some underwater mutants or something, to help solve the problem."

"Tony, you know this is impossible."

"Well, I do know that it's impossible." Tony shrugged, "I also know that it's equally impossible for us to go into the water."

Nick thought about it carefully and asked: "Is the reason why you are unwilling to go into the water because of the oxygen problem? If so, I have a way to solve it."

Tony turned to look at Peter. He was the remote one, and Peter was the main force in the water.

Peter thought for a moment and said:

"If the oxygen problem can be solved, I think I can try to go into the water. But it is useless to carry an oxygen bottle. The water flow seems to be against me. I am worried that the water flow will pull out my oxygen tube."

"Okay, I'll have someone prepare the oxygen device. Don't worry, this is alien black technology. Just bite it in your mouth and it will definitely solve the problem of underwater breathing."

Nick immediately ordered someone to send something over, and soon Tony and Peter got the so-called oxygen device, which was like a half-face mask with a pacifier-like protrusion at the mouth.

"Wow, it looks a bit like the thing I bitten last night, but there's no milk in it." Tony had a habit of being mean-mouthed.

"This thing can last for an hour. You can carry a few more spares with you. If you can't kill that guy, drive him away. Let the floods in New York City recede first, and then consider the follow-up issues."

Tony and Peter put on oxygen masks and went under the sea again. As for the SHIELD agents sent by Nick, they were rejected by the two.

They had fought against Namor and knew how exaggerated Namor's lethality was. After these agents went down, they would not be able to have any effect, and they might even be hindered.

Peter walked in front, stirring up electricity to illuminate the darkness on the bottom of the sea. It was also used as bait to lure Namor to the bait.

And Tony was far behind, ready to provide support at any time.

It wasn't so obvious last time they went into the sea, but this time they could clearly feel that the sea was repelling them, squeezing their bodies, and hindering their progress.

Not even half of the original power on land can be exerted here. As the distance extended, the power of the magnetic field was also being reduced layer by layer, forcing Tony to close the distance between him and Peter, otherwise the further away, the worse the effect would be.

Namor seemed determined to fight to the end this time. He looked for a place to hide in the vast sea, but no one could find him. But he still has to launch an attack on land, so he can't stray too far from here.

Moreover, it seems that things like his rushing to land and sea are not something he can control alone, but there are many men who look like humans and fish to help him.

Therefore, the two began to clear away these mermaids.

These mermaids are also powerful warriors, but they are no match for superheroes, and Peter easily killed one of them.

Then something went wrong.

Peter had never killed anyone before, and this was his first time seeing blood.

Although fishmen have tails, their appearance is almost the same as that of humans.

And this is not like on land, where the blood splashes somewhere and everything is over. The blood in the sea will spread with the sea water, and then rush towards people covering their heads and faces.

Seeing this situation, Peter's mind went blank for an instant, his hands and feet were cold, his limbs were numb, and he almost collapsed on the ground unable to move.

Tony, who was behind, realized that something was wrong and quickly came over to help. Then he wanted to take Peter up to the surface and leave.

But Namor had actually been cruising near them, looking for opportunities. Seeing this, how could he give up? He immediately armed himself and silently came from behind to kill them.
