American Comics: Multiverse of Madness

155. The Ghost Rider Gang.

There were many people here worth rallying, including the aged heroes and the offspring of heroes, but for Alex, they weren't the most important. What Alex needed were people, specifically those ordinary people living at the very bottom, those who couldn't control their own destinies and couldn't even afford a full meal each day.

When the worldview of two generations was severed, and society regressed to a dark and chaotic era, awakening people's conscience became extremely difficult. This limitation was unavoidable. Even Alex had to take it step by step. Long-term plans and grand ideals were just empty talk until they were implemented. The challenges before Alex were numerous.

For instance, the power of the time controller was running low, not enough to fully record this timeline, let alone explain the appearance of the Bat-Shuriken in this Marvel universe. But the good news was, Alex had many pieces to play. With them, he could unravel this endgame.

"Judging by their attire, they should be from the Ghost Rider Gang. These guys' hunting grounds span three states, and their motorcycles allow them to do this. They are extremely ruthless and usually leave no survivors after an attack. Moreover, because they move quickly, it's hard for the mounted police to catch them."

Casually speaking, Pietro noticed Kara's slightly surprised look and shrugged. "I read about them in a newspaper I found earlier, just skimming through."

"Pietro is right. These guys have almost no specific stronghold. They hide in the wilderness where natural hazards abound and dangerous beasts lurk. These factors act as their natural shields, even the Red Skull can't deal with them for now," Alex explained.

"Speaking of which, I'm curious why there are dinosaurs in this world. Weren't these creatures long extinct?" Pietro asked curiously.

Hearing this, Alex recalled briefly and then began to explain.

"These dinosaurs came from the Savage Land, a hidden secret realm in Antarctica, a very magical place. After the heroes fell in that great battle, some criminals wanting to profit banded together. They used high-tech weaponry and firepower to breach the Savage Land's defenses and killed Ka-Zar."

"Who's Ka-Zar?" Kara asked.

"Ka-Zar means 'Son of the Tiger.' He was the guardian of the Savage Land, raised by a sabertooth tiger from a young age. He later became an excellent hunter, always guarding the Savage Land from the ambitions of others," Alex answered.

Upon hearing this, Pietro immediately caught on. "So, he's like Tarzan, right?"

"Yes, you can understand it that way. After he and other guardians perished, the criminals took away countless rare and precious metals and resources. Some also took away dinosaurs, thinking these creatures could fetch a good price here."

Alex paused before continuing. "But as you can see, the world changed. Though dinosaurs are rare, not everyone can afford to keep them. Those who bought them soon found they couldn't sustain them, so they released the dinosaurs into the wild."

No need to elaborate further. Dinosaurs entering the current ecosystem were like deus ex machina. Without natural enemies, they reproduced wildly in the wild, disrupting the ecological balance at a speed that left everyone stunned.

By the time Red Skull and Doctor Doom realized what was happening, it was too late. Dinosaurs had already integrated into the wasteland world and became an essential part of the ecosystem. The discussion about dinosaurs didn't last long, as it was interrupted by the Ghost Rider Gang's arrival.

It was unclear if Alex and his companions were lucky or unlucky, but the route the Ghost Rider Gang took happened to cross where they were.

Seeing the dust rising in the distance, Alex stopped his explanation.

"It seems our class will end early. These guys don't look like they'll stop," Alex shrugged at Kara and Pietro. "But these motorcycles are pretty good. With their help, we can reach our destination tonight."

"Don't worry, Alex, leave it to me," Pietro stretched and smiled confidently.

"Kara, you go too," Alex thought for a moment and instructed. "Make the scene grand, the bigger, the better. Make it look like the Hulk Gang did it. Our actions need to be secretive. Faking a gang conflict will save us a lot of trouble."

"Got it," Kara responded.

The next moment, Kara and Pietro charged forward, their violent power creating a massive gust that blew Alex's hair back. The Ghost Rider Gang was still reveling in their recent haul, laughing wildly and waving their weapons as they raced across the desert. But soon, their laughter stopped. The leader of the Ghost Rider Gang saw a shadow blocking the sun as a figure leaped high into the sky, then plummeted towards them at an even faster speed.

"What the hell is that!?" the leader exclaimed in genuine astonishment.

A fierce gust of wind roared past, and the terrifying force engulfed his entire body. In an instant, his brain didn't even have time to react before he lost all consciousness. The leader felt like he had been hit head-on by a missile or crashed into a vibranium-made steel fortress while speeding.

A deafening boom exploded, raising a sandstorm that blotted out the sky and sun. It was unimaginable what kind of power could do this, as if only those extraordinary beings from the old days could unleash such terrifying strength.

The explosion's aftermath sent several gang members flying. They didn't know what had happened. The next moment, their perspective shifted to mid-air, rapidly moving until they crashed heavily to the ground, silent and still.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

The remaining gang members shouted, raising their weapons. Chains clinked, and motorcycle engines roared, creating a unique symphony in the desert. They didn't care about the attacker's identity. They only knew one thing: to break every bone of the attacker. Some even pulled out grenade launchers, their ticket to wealth.

In response, a fist enveloped in destructive power flew towards them.
