I'm in an American comic book, and all my teammates are main characters and bosses.

Chapter 326 Black Death Sword?

As the dark light burst forth, King Kong, who was still roaring and shouting while holding the skull lizard's head, did not react at all, completely absorbed in the excitement of killing his enemy.

But as the dark light approached Vajra's body, an inexplicable panic instantly engulfed him. A look of terror flashed in his eyes, and at this critical moment, accompanied by the sound of a rope tearing through the air, Azure Star's burly figure arrived first, spinning in mid-air, and the Black Dragon Sword in his hand directly slapped the dark light aside.

The light landed on King Kong, and Azure Star looked warily at the nearby mountains. King Kong, however, didn't seem to care that Azure Star was standing on him; in fact, he hadn't yet recovered from the fear he had just experienced. Filled with terror, he belatedly looked at the hillside where the dark light had struck, and as if realizing something, a deep seriousness appeared in his eyes.

"Don't be so nervous, the most dangerous time has passed."

Ron's voice rang out from the sky beside him. Descending slowly from the sky, Ron also looked towards the spot where the dark light had fallen. At the same time, he stretched out his palm, and with the surge of arcane energy, a clump of black slime was pulled into the air by Ron.

The slime seemed to still be alive, constantly rolling and struggling under Ron's arcane power, trying to break free from Ron's grip.

But Ron was clearly not very interested in the slime.

Because Ron had encountered this slime before, it was the same world virus symbiote he encountered in the DC universe.

Although they are not the same one, they are essentially no different. They are both creations of the symbiotic god Nal, and there is nothing remarkable about them.

As Ron applied a little more pressure, the symbiote, which had been struggling and writhing, suddenly froze, then exploded like a water balloon being crushed. As the slime dissipated, a piece of pitch-black metal came into view.

Black Death Sword.

Also known as: The Symbiote Sword, an artifact forged by the Dark God Nal using "symbiotes".

Its origins are extremely ancient, and it is one of the top-tier artifacts even in the Marvel Universe.

In the lore, before the birth of the universe, the Dark God Knull slumbered in nothingness and chaos. With the roar of the world's birth, Knull was awakened by the sudden explosion. From that moment on, the world's original darkness, chaos, and tranquility were stripped away by the Celestials. By the time Knull discovered this, the Celestials had already begun to establish the rules of the universe, filling the entire cosmos with planets.

The "symbiote" was originally created by Gnar with the intention of fighting against the Celestials.

When Gnar awoke from his slumber, he found his dark home destroyed by the Celestials. Fueled by his morning grumpiness, Gnar, enraged, killed one of the Celestials. However, the Celestials ultimately had the advantage in numbers, and Gnar couldn't escape being contained.

Thus, Gnar forged the Black Death Sword in the Void—the first member of the Symbiote family, the progenitor of the Symbiotes, the original Symbiote. It was precisely because of Gnar's forging that the flames of the forge and the sound of the hammer became the deepest instinct of every Symbiote's soul, making them almost without exception extremely sensitive to sound waves and flames.

For this very reason, in the Marvel Universe, whether it's Venom, Carnage, or any other symbiote, they are all essentially biological weapons. It is precisely because Knull created the symbiotes that he is called the God of Symbiotes.

According to the movie's plot, whoever is qualified to possess this sword will be guided to become a godslayer. The sword will activate the wielder's potential, elevating their abilities to the level of a supreme being of the Heavenly Father caliber. This alone possesses immeasurable value and terrifying power.

In the comics, the Black Death Sword is equally formidable. Anyone who picks up the Black Death Sword and gains its recognition instantly becomes a "Godslayer," regardless of their previous weakness. If this applies to the weak, it goes without saying that it applies to the strong.

Aside from the classic Godslayer Gale, many others have wielded the Black Death Sword. For example, Malekith, the king of the Dark Elves, conquered the Nine Realms during the major event "War of the Realms," leading his army to rule all the kingdoms on the World Tree and challenging Thor.

During the process, Malekith immediately recognized Venom as a creation of Knull, the symbiote god. To ensure his victory in the battle against Thor, Malekith captured Venom and merged it with himself. In the process, he nurtured Venom with magic and learned from Knull how to create a new symbiote sword, calling himself Thor the Butcher.

Thor knew he couldn't defeat Malekith, who had merged with Venom and created the new Black Death Sword. So he summoned the other Thors from the timeline to join him in defeating Malekith.

Besides Malekith, there's also Thor's most classic enemy, Loki. After wielding the Black Death Sword, Loki's power increased dramatically, even overwhelming Thor, who had become the new Father of Asgard. On his deathbed, Thor prayed that another god in the universe could kill Loki, the Black Death Swordsman, when suddenly the Godslayer Gale appeared behind Loki and killed him instantly.

This Gale is someone who traveled from the past to the present and killed Loki. In the future, this Gale killed Loki and watched Thor die. But in the past, Gale was killed by Thor. It sounds a bit convoluted, but it's actually a series of paradoxes caused by several people from different time periods traveling through time.

Overall, as a flagship of Marvel's superhero mythology, the story between Thor and Gale is second only to the story between Thor and Loki.

The Black Death Sword plays a pivotal role in these stories, demonstrating its power and status in the Marvel Universe.

Now that it's confirmed to be a fragment of the Black Death Sword, Ron's eyes also show a hint of curiosity.

It's not that I'm curious about the forging method of the Black Death Sword—Ron has similar techniques, he just creates them according to his own path. Nar forged the Black Death Sword through revenge, hatred, and darkness. Ron's method is similar, roughly based on melody, hymns, and what he perceives as the "real world."

What truly intrigued Ron was how this fragment of the Black Death Sword came to be in this world.

Are those old bastards really that ruthless? They even shattered Nal's Black Death Sword and sent it flying all the way here?

Oh dear, won't they knock the hood off too?

Thinking to himself, Ron put away the fragments of the Black Death Sword, then landed on the ground and said:

"This thing should be the culprit behind the problems in this world. The Black Death Sword, a fragment of a weapon from an ancient god. However, there should be more than just this one fragment in this world, because a single fragment like this wouldn't be enough to cause this kind of impact on a world."

Hearing Ron's words, although Azure Star still harbored some doubts, she didn't try to pry. She simply asked, "What exactly happened in this world?"

"It's a long story, and it may seem like there haven't been many changes, but it's actually a completely new world." Ron shook his head when he heard Azure Star's question.

Ron's arrival in this world wasn't just a casual stroll; he immediately began to thoroughly observe the outside world. During his battle with the Skeleton Lizard on Azure Star, Ron gained a general understanding of this world.

Previously, it was due to his location, but now that he saw the Black Death Sword, Ron quickly realized, or rather, pondered, why this world had become like this.

First, the phase of this world has shifted significantly. Using the Marvel Sacred Timeline as an example, this world should have been aligned with the main timeline of the Behemoth Universe, but for various reasons, it has now arrived at the main timeline of another universe's Sacred Timeline. The consequences of this are extremely serious, somewhat similar to a celestial conjunction, but unlike a conjunction, this forced transfer lacks the harmonizing effect of the Elder Blood. Because energy cannot be unified, this world is constantly being eroded by the main timeline of another universe.

This kind of erosion is difficult for ordinary people to perceive, but once a certain critical point is reached, the entire world will collapse instantly, without even a chance to be saved.

At first, Ron knew that this was because the Dark God Knull was violently attacked by God and the One-Above-All (OAA), causing a corner of the Negative Multiverse to shatter during the battle. However, this still couldn't explain why the world shifted as a result.

but now……

It's most likely because of the Black Death Sword.

Although it's just speculation, if I'm not mistaken, the contamination of this world originated from a global virus. However, the reason this world was deflected was because the shattered Black Death Sword contained a massive amount of energy, causing it to shake the entire world as it disintegrated, deviating from its original trajectory…

Thinking to himself, Ron shook his head with a hint of emotion.

To be honest, Ron genuinely felt that the Dark God Knull wasn't all that impressive. It wasn't that he wasn't powerful enough, but in most cases, Knull's power was limited to a single universe, only reaching multiverse levels in certain special circumstances. Even at that level, Ron was confident he could put up a good fight, though it would likely end in a hundred or so rounds before Knull cried out for OAA or "God save me!"

However, it now appears that this Dark God Knull is far superior to the Knull of the ordinary Marvel universe. His individual power has reached a point where he can barely contend with a being of the rank of God.

But judging from the current situation, it seems that Nar is just holding on and not immediately losing...

After all, if Gnar were truly on par with God, the fragments of the Black Death Sword should now be stained with God's divine blood.

Thinking this, Ron also felt a pang of regret. After all, even for an existence of Ron's level, the divine blood of the true God still held extremely high value—especially given that Ron's rules included the concept that "blood is the currency of the soul."

Unfortunately, Ron did not sense the presence of God in either this world or in the shattered fragments of the Black Death Sword.

What could Ron say? He could only blame Gnar for not trying hard enough. Even after joining the Tree of Life, he couldn't withstand a combined attack from God and OAA.

Ron silently mocked Nar in his mind and said:

"Due to the influence of the World Virus and the fragments of the Black Death Sword, the anchoring of spacetime in this world has become severely problematic. It's like a drop of water in a water balloon; even if the water inside the balloon is placed in a basin, it's difficult for the water molecules and droplet to perceive a direct change. Now, the problem lies with the universe itself. While Earth is important, it's not large enough to allow us to see the whole picture from a single point."

"However, finding the cause will solve the problem. Let's first try to understand what's happening in this world."

As he spoke, Ron turned his gaze toward Eileen, the commander of Monarch's Skull Island outpost.

The battle between God and Knull did not take place in the traditional physical universe. Instead, it took place on the upside-down tree on the other side of the World Tree. Furthermore, the abilities of both sides were beyond imagination, so when the fragments of the Black Death Sword shattered, they did not directly collide with the "present," but rather directly affected the entire timeline represented by that world.

Simply put, although Ron and his team arrived and dealt with the problem as soon as it occurred in this world, the world had already been affected by the timeline and was already experiencing problems long before.

It sounds a bit nonsensical, but that's how things are with space and time. No wonder some prophets, diviners, and so on talk a lot of mystical stuff. Before Ron knew, he just thought they were faking it. But as Ron's understanding broadened, he realized… well, most of this group were indeed faking it, but those with real skills were often like that too. No wonder they were considered fraudsters; it was truly a case of good money helping bad money drive out good.

Noticing Ron's gaze, despite a deep-seated fear of the unknown, he considered that Ron had helped him defeat the enemy and kill the skeletal giant lizard that attacked them...

Taking a deep breath, Eileen forced herself to sit up and walked towards Ron and the others, asking loudly, "Hello! May I ask where you are from? Can you understand me?"

Seeing Eileen gesturing wildly, Ron waved his hand and said, "Don't be so nervous, we're good people."

Seeing that Ron could communicate, Eileen breathed a sigh of relief and then hurriedly said, "Thank you for your help!"

"You're too kind, but I'd rather know what's happening in this world?"
