Just as Bruce Banner is about to be sacrificed, the execution halts. The skeletal warriors’ leader—revealed to be a human scientist—takes Banner to his laboratory. The girl, once entranced by ritual drugs, regains clarity and prepares to avenge her fallen people.
In the lab’s depths, the truth is unveiled: the scientist has conquered aging by siphoning blood from captive aliens, kept alive in a chamber of endless suffering. Banner, horrified by the grotesque experiment, escapes as the girl exacts justice—killing the scientist in cold retribution.
During his flight, Banner transforms once more into the Hulk. Fueled by rage and disgust, the green goliath obliterates the lab and its twisted legacy. Guided by the lingering presence of the Triad, Hulk returns to the Crossroads, leaving behind a world drenched in blood and betrayal.
