Ultraman: Forced to become the Dark Boss

However, having finished its meal, Jormungandr turned its ferocious gaze toward the humans who were trying to attack it.

"Oh no, it's watching us!"

"Once snakes lock onto an enemy, they will fight to the death!"

"Damn it, everyone retreat! It can devour even large-caliber artillery, what can't this guy eat!"

The base leader was sweating profusely and looked extremely flustered.

He gripped the railing on the deck tightly and roared.

"Yes, everyone retreat!!"

The soldiers also quickly relayed the orders to each ship.

Fortunately, everyone noticed something was wrong and eagerly awaited the flagship's orders.

Now that permission has been granted, it's like a wild horse that has lost its reins, running wildly backward.

"hold head high!!"

Noticing his prey begin to flee, a savage glint flashed in Jormungandr's eyes.

Its massive body moved forward nimbly, while the mysterious symbols above its head shone brightly. After a brief moment of charging, a beam of light with immense power, giving people a feeling of suffocation, shot out instantly!

"This is..."

Sensing something was wrong, the person in charge trembled and prepared to retreat to the command room.

However, Jormungandr's goal is not to become a flagship.

"boom!!"

The beam of light pierced through a nearby escort ship in an instant.

The thousand-ton frigate had no reaction whatsoever; it was crushed into fragments by the light. Some of the unburned wreckage was blown into the air before falling heavily to the ground, while the lighter parts floated on the surface of the sea and gradually sank to the seabed along with the other debris.

And it is clear that all the personnel on the frigate also died heroically.

The person in charge, who witnessed the horrific state of the frigate, trembled and almost lost all will to fight. Even though he was heartbroken, he did not forget his duty.

He shouted almost frantically, "Everyone retreat! Spread out! Don't travel in a straight line! Be careful to avoid obstacles!"

"Roar!!"

Jormungandr let out an excited roar, its body shining brightly once more, and the wreckage of the escort ship, attracted by the black light, surged wildly into its body.

"hold head high!!"

After absorbing the food, Jormungandr revealed a mocking expression. The wonderful taste made it regard all the warships as its prey. The hatred for humans and the desire for "food" engraved in its bones almost drove this walking disaster to madness.

Chapter 13 Dramatic Development

Just as the fleet was retreating in disarray, the person in charge slumped in the command room, gradually becoming desperate.

Countless small black dots suddenly appeared in the sky.

The observer quickly took a closer look, and then he excitedly shouted, "Commander, the air support from the defense forces has arrived!"

"Ah, they've finally arrived!"

Upon hearing this, everyone, including the person in charge, breathed a sigh of relief.

"Then let them handle the rest!"

Just as the person in charge was thinking this, the signal connection on the big screen suddenly started again, and soon, Captain Ihara's figure appeared on the screen.

"Thank you for your hard work, everyone. The next operation will be carried out jointly by UPIC and the Defense Force. We will use large-scale freezing bombs to try to limit Jormungandr's activities."

Ihara's words coincided with the thoughts of the person in charge.

"Ah, I wish you success, but be careful of the strange symbol on Jormungandr's head; it releases powerful beams of light. One of our escort ships was destroyed by it..."

"Also, this thing seems to be able to devour anything. The shell debris used to warn it, as well as the wreckage of the frigate, were all absorbed by its belly!"

"That's terrifying!"

Upon hearing that they wouldn't be needed in the upcoming battle, the person in charge immediately relaxed, but still remembered to offer a reminder.

"Okay, thank you for the news."

Ihara frowned slightly, his expression serious.

Jormungandr...

It truly is a serpent that devours the world...

We need to be more cautious in the battles to come.

It is hoped that the freezing bomb will limit its movement and prepare for the upcoming land battle.

Ihara felt a headache coming on when he thought of the crowds who had not yet been evacuated.

Fortunately, Commander Xiaodao handled all these matters personally, and he only needed to focus on directing the battle.

...

"Arrived at the designated combat location. Requesting permission to deploy freeze bombs!"

Inside the Divine Eagle fighter jet, Li Zhenna remained unusually calm, staring intently at the enormous machine on the screen below.

Behind them, the Boden team members stared intently at the aiming screen, ready to fire the freeze bombs at any moment.

Her partner, the Shin'yō-2, was also patrolling back and forth on the other side, piloted by Noi and fired by Muraka.

Now, Muraka is different from her cheerful self at the base; she looks slightly nervous, rubbing her hands together on the aiming and firing buttons.

A pair of eyes were fixed on Jormungandr on the screen, a character who exuded both awe and pressure.

I never expected to face such a being on my first mission...

But that's exactly why I joined UPIC!

To destroy these heretics, monsters!

Muraka's boyfriend died in an attack by Dinozoll, which prompted her to abandon her job in the Ground Defense Force and join UPIC.

Everyone has a reason to fight, even if it means paying with their life.

"Fire is permitted. Pay attention to Jormungandr's head. If it flashes, immediately take tactical evasion. Your own safety is the top priority!"

Through the images, Ihara could clearly see Jormungandr, a terrifying-looking creature roaring menacingly.

This is a much bigger and more terrifying creature than Dinozore...

For the safety of his team members, Ihara disobeyed orders from the North American headquarters.

It's important to know that North America is demanding that the monster be eliminated at all costs...

But Ihara, with her soft heart, still hoped that her teammates could return safely.

The pain of losing a comrade-in-arms is enough once.

"Understood! Prepare for launch!"

Inside the cockpit, Li Mana and Noi spoke in unison and then maneuvered the aircraft to the optimal firing angle, while Boden and Muraka, who were in charge of firing, pressed the fire button almost simultaneously!

"Whizzing!"

"hold head high!"

Jormungandr noticed the annoying flying insects above him early in the morning and seemed a little irritable.

Despite its immense power in the ocean, its inability to fly makes it difficult to pose a threat to the Divine Eagle fighter jet.

Just as it roared repeatedly, several freezing bombs fell from the sky and detonated on Jormungandr's body. The icy air and liquid quickly tried to cover the somewhat massive body and formed a frozen layer on its scales at a visible speed.

"hold head high??"

Noticing that something was suddenly wrong with his body, Jormungandr appeared slightly panicked, shaking his head restlessly as if manipulating his body to move.

However, these are UPIC's specially designed freeze bombs tailored to its size, which not only have increased yield but also increased quantity.

There are 12 in total, and each one can freeze an elephant to death in 0.1 seconds. Moreover, UPC didn't expect to eliminate it.

These freezing bombs were only intended to slow down Jormungandr's advance and buy time for the people on the ground to evacuate.

"Whizzing."

The completed Eagle fighter hovered in the air, while the belated Defense Force mass-produced fighters took the opportunity to drop more freezing bombs. Dozens more large-dose freezing bombs slammed into Jormungandr, making it even more agitated and restless, its pair of eerie green eyes becoming extremely fierce.

"Damage! Everyone take off and scatter! Be careful to avoid this!"

Li Mana, who had been closely monitoring the situation, noticed that Jormungandr's head had started to glow and quickly alerted him on the communication channel!

They then quickly maneuvered the fighter jet to roll and evade.

Even if the reminder is timely, it is still too late.

Enraged to the extreme, Jormungandr only wanted to quickly shoot down these insects that posed a threat to him. He frantically mobilized the power within his body, and the mysterious symbol on his head instantly unleashed several exceptionally powerful beams of light!

"That guy!"

As the first aircraft to attack Jormungandr, the Condor Heroes clearly received "special attention".

Fortunately, thanks to their excellent airframe performance, both Shenying-1 and Shenying-2 managed to evade danger without incident.

However, some of the defending forces' aircraft were not so lucky. Several aircraft that were unable to react in time were hit and exploded into pieces, leaving the pilots with no chance to escape.

Fortunately, more fighters escaped Jormungandr's attack range, but the sacrifice of their comrades still caused some soldiers to lose their minds.

"Die, monster!!!"

A fighter jet suddenly broke away from the formation. The pilot inside was filled with hatred. Just now, the woman he loved most had sacrificed herself in front of him. The departure of his lover made him lose control of himself!

The plane began to dive, and he violated regulations by using a highly destructive missile. To the astonishment of Li Zhenna and the others, the missile instantly struck Jormungandr, who was already covered in ice and unable to move!

"boom!!"

Provoked, Jormungandr felt threatened.

The abdomen instinctively began to glow, and countless radioactive substances spread like fermentation. The white, scorching light gradually expanded from the abdomen, forming a yellow flame, until it reached the ice layer and then burst forth in an instant!

The murky flames stirred up countless heat waves, shattering the ice that trapped Jormungandr. The contact between the two produced a strange sizzling sound, and billowing white smoke rose from Jormungandr's body. The monster roared to the sky, and the mark on its forehead shone brightly once more!

The powerful beam of light swept across the sky in an instant, turning the numerous defense force fighter jets that had just adjusted their flight attitude, as well as the fighter jet that disobeyed orders, into fireworks and exploded with a bang!
