“It’s truly a relic from an ancient civilization, capable of granting a mere mortal extraordinary power, enough to stand against monsters, simply by wearing a belt.”
On a military truck heading towards the Adirondack Mountains, Captain Bronsky abruptly stood up from his seat, his eyes glued to the screen.
He stared at the white warrior in the video, his gaze filled with unprecedented greed.
Reid was just an ordinary person, but after successfully merging with the belt, he gained such immense power.
Comparing them, if someone like him, a skilled soldier, were to merge with the belt, he might gain even greater power.
Imagining this scene, Captain Bronsky's greedy gaze grew even more fervent.
...
At the same time.
S.H.I.E.L.D., the Triskelion.
Nick Fury, witnessing this, was equally moved.
He mused that if S.H.I.E.L.D. could master the technology behind the belt, they could potentially create an invincible team of Avengers and pummel any alien who dared to threaten Earth.
Besides this, he was also interested in Reid from the video.
Especially when he saw him facing the spider monster, unfazed, throwing a punch, his single remaining eye lit up with admiration.
“Both in character and courage, he’s truly an exceptional young man. He’s definitely a good prospect.”
“Perhaps... I should send an agent to observe him for a while. If he meets the criteria, we can directly recruit him into the Avengers Initiative.”
The more he saw, the more satisfied he became. Nick Fury, after a moment of thought, reached for the phone on his desk.
“Natasha, please come to headquarters.”
......
【“Huff... bang!?”
Reid, panting heavily, slowly retracted his fist.
But at that moment, an indescribable feeling of weakness washed over him, causing him to collapse on the ground.
“This... what’s happening?”
“Why am I so exhausted?!”
Reid struggled to raise his hands, and he could distinctly feel a scorching power flowing from his abdomen to his entire body, making him stronger with every passing moment.
However, in this process.
His body began to experience bouts of weakness.
It was as if... his body had been drained of all its nutrients in a single moment, leaving him unable to adapt, collapsing onto the ground.
“No wonder your power is much weaker than expected, your horn has shrunk.”
On the other side, Gumumu, having climbed up from the opposite building, noticed the small horn on Reid's forehead and couldn’t help but chuckle, emitting a low rumble.
“But this is expected. After all, you’re just a simple Limdo. Achieving this much is already your limit!”
“So, from now on, just accept your fate. Let me, a member of the Ziz Group, completely destroy you!”
Having said that, Gumumu, regardless of whether Reid understood his words, leaped into the air, crossing over a hundred meters, reaching Reid's side, then delivered a Kongou Arm strike, knocking him to the ground, followed by a spinning kick.
“Bang!”
With a deafening sound, Reid was instantly kicked flying, spinning several times in mid-air before crashing onto the hard ground.
“Do you feel it?”
“This is the gap in absolute strength!”
Having succeeded with his attack, Gumumu didn’t choose to press his advantage, but continued to wiggle his grotesque mandibles, taunting Agul’s chosen successor in the language unique to the Gurongi tribe.
But as his words left his mouth, he saw Reid struggle to get up from the ground and approach a large truck.
“Uwaaaahhhh——”
With a roar, Reid, ignoring the exhaustion in his body, actually pushed a large truck weighing dozens of tons towards the front, crashing into it with immense force.
And the unprepared Gumumu was instantly struck by the truck that Reid pushed, crashing into the building behind him.
】
In reality, the audience, seeing this scene, gasped in unison, then began frantically discussing it online.
Clearly, these viewers were shocked by the power displayed by Reid, who had obtained the power of the ancient civilization.
At the same time, Reid, who was in the library, seeing the Legend Points rapidly accumulating on his system panel, and the template progress continuously unlocking, couldn't help but slightly curl his lips.
Growth at a speed far exceeding his expectations.
At this rate, it wouldn’t take long before he could unleash the ultimate power of Kuuga in reality.
Thinking of this, Reid's eyes began to shine with anticipation as he looked at the screen.
......
【“Did... did I succeed?”
Slowly stopping in his tracks, Reid looked at the truck, which was practically embedded in the building, and muttered to himself.
But at this moment, a familiar roar came from inside the building.
“Hmph! New successor, is that all you’ve got?!”
In a flash, the large truck that was embedded in the building was forcefully pushed out by Gumumu. He then sprayed a web of silk from his mandibles, tightly wrapping Reid’s left arm.
“No good!”
Seeing the silk on his arm, Reid’s expression changed, as if he sensed something amiss.
And as he expected.
The next second, Gumumu jumped onto the building that was dozens of meters high, then quickly twisted his head, using the momentum to fling Reid into the air.
“Bang——”
With a loud explosion, the wall, made of reinforced concrete, cracked under the impact of Reid's back, and he began to plummet towards the ground.
