Chapter 639: Martians Not Afraid of Fire

Malafak Jonze is the twin brother of Martian Manhunter Ron Jonze. Unlike the honest and kind Martian Manhunter, Malafak is a sinister and cunning villain.

Just like the names of the two brothers, Ron Ronzi means the Supreme Light in Martian, while Malafak is the complete opposite, his name means the Heart of Darkness.

We have no way of knowing whether Malafak gave up because of his name or whether his parents saw Malafak's nature from a young age. In any case, Malafak took a path that was completely opposite to that of Martian Hunter.

The elder brother became the Martian Hunter known to all Martians, while the younger brother became a criminal who intended to violate his sister-in-law.

It was this crime that completely changed the fate of all Martians. The captured Malafak was tried, and the Martian court sentenced him to a serious crime and sealed most of Malafak's memories and mental abilities.

For Martians, this is the punishment second only to death. Due to the peculiarities of their society, having no psychic abilities is no different from becoming blind or mute.

It sounds miserable, doesn't it? But it was a blessing in disguise that Malafak, whose psychic abilities were sealed, also lost another Martian characteristic, which is the fear of fire.

Pyrophobia is an innate weakness of Martians. This unique disease is not a genetic disease based on the body, but a curse passed down through the spirit. Malafak, who has lost his mental and spiritual abilities, naturally lost his fear of fire.

It is also because of this that Malafak was able to develop a mental plague to eliminate all Martians - the Curse of Hellomere. Martians who suffer from this plague will be burned to death or scared to death by the mental fire in their brains.

Malafac spread the plague on Mars without any scruples, simply because he could not receive the psychic abilities of others and was not afraid of fire.

Now, you should understand why Yang Le was able to resist the erosion of the snake staff and the damage of fire. This is because Yang Le sealed his own psychic abilities with his own hands, and after isolating himself from the spiritual world, he also took away his fear of fire.

For normal Martians, this may be the most severe punishment. Sealing their spirits is more painful than killing them. However, Yang Le is not a normal Martian. He is a Martian with the thinking of an Earthling who has transformed using the Omnitrix.

Although the loss of his mental ability deprived him of a killer move, it also reduced the Martian's only weakness. It was a mixed blessing, but relying solely on the Martian's physical ability was almost enough to deal with the people in front of him.

Yang Le, who turned into a dragon, rushed towards the King Cobra with a loud bang. If he hit it, he might be sent to another world.

But the other members of the Viper Gang obviously would not watch their leader get lucky. The Giant Adder, the only one that could compete with the dragon that Yang Le transformed into, stepped forward at the first moment and stood between Yang Le and the King Cobra.

"boom!"

The giant adder struggled to withstand Yang Le's impact. The opponent's strength was so great that it surprised him. His muscles were already overloaded, but he was still pushed by the opponent to slide slowly backwards.

If this continues, I will definitely crush the leader before this green monster does.

The adder was sweating profusely. He opened his bloody mouth and roared continuously. His body began to swell again, and his head had hit the roof of the factory.

Seeing this horrifying scene, the king cobra was not afraid at all, but laughed happily instead.

"Haha, the Puff Adder's abilities have gotten stronger again!"

As he roared with laughter, the punctured ceiling continued to scatter construction debris. King Cobra, standing not far from the clash between the two behemoths, was inevitably swept in. But he remained unfazed. Even without his staff, he was still a superhuman with enhanced powers, not to mention the leaders standing beside him.

Three strong water jets blew away all the construction waste. The giant viper used its huge body to protect the king cobra directly under it, and also protected the newly promoted black mamba.

"Guard, Cottonmouth," King Cobra ordered Cottonmouth. "The others, go deal with the intruding superhuman. I need to complete the ritual for Black Mamba first."

"Yes, Chief." ×4
Except for the puff adder that wrestled with Yang Le, the other leaders responded to King Cobra's orders, including the copperhead that had not yet recovered from its injuries. Even so, he answered without any hesitation.

"Oh, right." The King Cobra looked at the Copperhead. "I can't let my leader go into battle injured."

As he spoke, the King Cobra waved the snake staff in his hand, and a green light was thrown out along with his force, turning into a translucent green snake and drilling into the body of the copperhead.

"Hmm!" Copperhead let out a comfortable groan and felt a tingling sensation in his body. He knew that his injuries were recovering.

Sure enough, when the green snake completely drilled into the copperhead snake's body, he could feel that he had regained his strength again, and the wildness belonging to the snake once again returned to his body.

"Thank you, Chief." Copperhead looked fanatical, and it seemed that his original admiration for King Cobra had overflowed.

"Go." The King Cobra waved his hand and turned to look at the Black Mamba in front of him.

"Come on, girl." A hint of madness flashed across King Cobra's eyes. "You will witness the greatest power in this world. He is the God of All Gods, capable of entangling countless universes!"

Black Mamba understood what the Cobra King meant, and quickly lowered his head and knelt on the ground, waiting for the hard-earned honor.

"Come down! God of all gods! God Set!"

As the Cobra King finished speaking, the snake staff in his hand slowly disappeared, replaced by an illusory black shadow with seven heads that enveloped the three-headed venomous snake...

...

"Run!"

Outside the factory, the puff adder, whose body had grown to over ten meters in length, was fighting with Yang Le, who had transformed into a dragon. It was difficult to determine the winner of this battle for a while, because the puff adder's snake power could also soften its bones and muscles.

Although the puff adder has a human form, it can actually entangle with Yang Le like a real snake. In a short period of time, Yang Le really can't do anything to it in this way.

Therefore, Yang Le simply transformed himself again, from the original Chinese dragon image into a dragon man with a strong upper body and long arms, looking like the dragon of Namek.

Yang Le's appearance changed so quickly that before the adder could react, a powerful fist hit his face.
