I made up myths in America

Chapter 45 Twists and turns

The voice just fell.

An invisible heavy pressure fell on the giant fire dog.

For Christine, this operation was much more difficult than chopping someone with a heavy sword. Within a few seconds, her face began to turn pale and her body was shaking in the air.

However, this reckless move is indeed quite effective.

The huge fire dog's limbs suddenly sank, and it was restricted to the spot for several seconds, and the blazing black flames on its body were also suppressed.

Instead of what happened just now, the missiles were detonated by the scorching heat around its body before they even got close to it.

"Boom! Boom!"

The next second, dozens of missiles came from all directions, leaving trails of flame.

George Gently did not waste this precious opportunity and ordered the helicopters and drone groups hovering in the air to launch an attack together.

What they launched were naturally liquid nitrogen missiles, which were very effective against those with flame abilities.

With the boiling point of liquid nitrogen at -196.56℃ under normal pressure, if the amount is considerable, it can even form a large layer of frozen ice out of thin air.

That's it now.

Liquid nitrogen missiles bombarded the giant fire dog, accompanied by loud explosions and a large amount of white nitrogen rising up.

It made it impossible for people to see what was happening on the scene, and the surrounding temperature began to drop rapidly.

zizi——

In an instant, half of Wall Street was completely shrouded in thick white fog.

Layers of frost had formed on the surrounding tree branches and the ground.

The same is true for the car that was almost melted by the high temperature just now. A thick layer of frost has formed on the front windshield. Due to the hot and cold weather, all major parts of the car are basically broken. The owner of this car can now go to the insurance company to apply for compensation.

If he bought insurance.

"That monster was destroyed??!"

Several high-definition drones in the sky are still working tenaciously, broadcasting the latest battle situation on Wall Street to the onlookers across the country.

In a small town near the border between the United States and Mexico, Mina, Robert and others who have been living here for almost a week are watching the live broadcast on TV with great interest.

"what the hell."

Robert was watching TV while quickly scrolling through the comments on his phone.

When he saw some netizens commenting that this policewoman named Christine was so cool and more powerful than the witch, he curled his lips in dissatisfaction and raised his head and said:
"Sister, I think you are much more capable than her. She definitely can't beat you."

"Yeah, I also think Mina-san is more powerful!!"

Mina's biggest fanboy Ahanu was the first to jump out and express his approval.

"Me too."

The two boys, Tatanka and Chaton, followed closely behind.

"Okay, ahem, there's no point in comparing these."

Even though almost a week had passed, the side effects of Mina's last forced fusion of aviation gasoline had not yet passed.

Her face was a little pale. She sat on the sofa covered with a blanket. Blue ripples like water appeared on her face or arms from time to time, and she spoke in a weak voice.

However, when Mina saw the liquid nitrogen missiles launched by the military, which almost completely transformed Wall Street into a "country of ice and snow," she was still somewhat surprised. Compared to her then, the members of the investigation team had become more and more proficient in dealing with supernatural forces.

But, does this really work?

"Generals, the thermal imaging sensor shows that the infrared radiation emitted by the giant flaming dog is rapidly decreasing. This proves that our battle plan has been effective."

On the other side, Ray Kelly, with a flushed face, stood in front of the camera communicating with the Pentagon, reporting the results of the battle, and was just about to give a victory speech.

At this moment, on the computer screen nearby, the thermal radiation data of the core area of ​​Wall Street, which had been steadily declining just now, suddenly jumped up as if it had taken medicine.

"Ho ho ho!!!"

Amidst a mighty roar that could be heard throughout New York, the thick white fog in the core area of ​​Wall Street suddenly rolled violently.

Through a corner where the fog parted, a reporter caught a glimpse of the huge monster standing up again at the center of the explosion.

"This is?!!"

The reporter widened his eyes in disbelief and used his camera to repeatedly check the photos he had just taken by subconsciously pressing the shutter.

The photo showed a hellhound that was even larger than the one before, with terrifying black flames burning all over its body.

But this was not what surprised the reporter the most.

What surprised him the most was that this hellhound originally had only one head on its neck, but now it had two new huge and ferocious heads that slowly grew out of its flaming body that flowed like magma.

Just now, netizens were arguing fiercely about whether the other party was the three-headed dog of hell or the god of death Anubis. Obviously, the debate has come to a conclusion.

"So, what do you all think now??!"

In the investigation team, George Gently frowned as he watched this scene, and looked at several famous theologians and folklore experts he had invited.

"This"

Because of the recent extraordinary events, their careers have been revitalized, and experts and scholars who frequently appear on TV programs looked at each other in surprise.

I was actually a little nervous.

After all, since the three-headed dog of hell exists, it means that heaven and hell are likely to exist as well.

This is not necessarily a good thing for priests who only regard their identity as theologians as a philosophical research job and do not actually believe in God that much.

They have all started to think about whether they should go to church to confess.

God is so magnanimous, he should forgive these lost lambs, right?
Finally, Alan Hurston, a folklorist who enjoyed delving into the myths and histories of various nations, as well as bizarre rituals, stepped forward and explained everything to George Gently:

"Cerberus, the three-headed dog of hell, first appeared in ancient Greek mythology. It is a monster born from the Titan Typhon and the snake-like banshee Echidna."

"Its duty is usually considered to be guarding the gate to the underworld, preventing the living from entering the underworld and also preventing the dead from the underworld from traveling to the human world."

"As time went by, the famous three-headed dog of Hell was mentioned in Dante's Divine Comedy and other literary works. He was no longer simply a part of Greek mythology. Every time he appeared, it represented the invasion of the forces of Hell on earth."

"Why is this happening? Did it change jobs?" Nathan asked curiously.

"Uh"

This knowledgeable folklorist was stunned by this question for a moment. After realizing what was happening, he shook his head and said:
"In my previous research, I tended to believe that ancient Greek mythology gradually lost its popularity and vitality, but it is old enough that many later mythological books borrowed from it, which is also a very normal thing."

"But now"

Alan Hurston paused, raised his hand to push down his glasses, and stared at the fierce and imposing appearance of the hellhound that had risen again on the screen. With a strong curiosity and excitement in his eyes, he said, "I think there might be a deeper reason behind this."
