Kamen Rider ZZZ, the American comic book spiritual mentor

Lin Nan had great respect for this kind of person, so he threw a serious punch.

A sound of flesh and bone snapping rang out. Bullseye's chest caved in, and a gaping hole exploded in his back, spraying out fragments of internal organs and bone in a fan shape.

His eyes widened and became bloodshot, red fluid gushed from his seven orifices, and he collapsed and died.

Knowing he couldn't escape, he decided to take a gamble, just to live up to his reputation.

Thor and Loki easily dealt with the remaining ninjas, leaving the deck littered with corpses and rivers of blood.

The three men turned their murderous gazes toward the very front of the deck, where a young man stood there almost imperceptibly.

He stood up, clapped his hands, and said, "That was spectacular. I really can't stand seeing so much blood."

"So I decided that all the resentment and flesh here will become my nourishment. The ritual was not fully completed, but it was enough. They were just three ants."

"I, Menglong! Will devour everything!"

He spread his arms, laughed loudly, and black energy surged from his body, slowly gathering towards the sky.

Then, the black mist transformed into a sharp arrow, instantly plunging into the seabed and disappearing without a trace. Menglong's body slid to the ground, already devoid of life.

A few seconds later, the ship began to rock, and a small mountain of seawater rose from the surface, growing higher and higher until a huge, terrifying snake head emerged.

Chapter 119 Devouring

Jormungandr, who was halfway through the resurrection ceremony, finally emerged from the sea.

The sea was pushed aside, revealing its true form, which was different from the complete shape I had seen in my dream.

As section by section of its body emerged from the sea, the massive ironclad ship began to rock, battered by the waves, as if it were about to sink at any moment.

Its left half is almost complete, covered with enormous, silvery-white, shimmering scales. The left half is bare and skeletal, stained with blood, flesh, seaweed, and even marine creatures wrapped around it, their internal organs exposed, a horrifying sight.

It was over 10,000 meters long, and a huge golden vertical pupil looked down at the three of them with icy coldness.

Thor and Loki looked up and felt as small as ants, their hearts sinking.

“It has come back to life,” Thor said in a deep voice.

Lin Nan felt a chill run down her spine, not from fear, but simply because it was a snake.

He forced himself to remain calm and said, "It's only half resurrected, not in its complete form. Let's fight it, strike while it's weak."

The azure sky was covered with dark clouds, pressing down layer upon layer, followed by rumbling thunder, poised to strike.

Loki was no longer smiling as before; instead, he had a serious expression and his entire body emanated powerful magical energy.

However, his magic is not good at direct combat; it is mostly strong in deception and manipulation. Facing such a behemoth, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

"Loki, step back and protect yourself. Don't fall into the sea," Lin Nan instructed.

Then, he pushed off with both legs, creating two craters in the steel deck. An extremely powerful force surged through his body, propelling him hundreds of meters into the air like an insect. His fists burned with scarlet impact energy, and he slammed into the other half of Jormungandr that was not covered by scales!

Jormungandr opened its serpent mouth and let out a hiss, a strange cry that teetered between life and death, which reverberated through the air.

However, Lin Nan's punch ultimately landed on its exposed skeleton.

The air was violently compressed by the terrifying force, producing a muffled thud.

boom!

A muffled thud echoed through the sky as the massive bone joint, hundreds of meters long, was shattered and crushed by this punch.

The broken bone fragments, carried by a strong wind, pierced into the internal organs behind him with a series of thuds.

"Ah~ah~"

Clearly, the giant serpent, not fully resurrected, also possessed the ability to feel pain. It raised its head high and let out a mournful cry, unlike the sound of a snake, but rather like the cry of a baby, which sounded incredibly human.

At the same time, Thor's attack arrived. He spun Mjolnir, transforming his body into a bolt of lightning that shot into the air, before crashing down on the giant serpent's head with tremendous force.

Unlike Lin Nan, who chose to strike the internal organs directly where there were no scales, he instead blasted a three-meter-diameter bolt of lightning straight onto the hardest part of the giant snake's head.

boom!!

Sizzle... sizzle...

Lightning has always been the most terrifying force in the world. This bolt of lightning, like a waterfall cascading down from the nine heads, poured down from the top of the giant serpent's head, into its body, and reached the sea.

In an instant, one lightning ball after another exploded on the sea surface.

Loki, who had already floated into the air, had his black hair bristling like a hedgehog and his body was slightly numb without any direct contact.

He cursed under his breath, knowing full well what kind of person his good older brother really was.

When did he become so fierce? He's starting to resemble Odin, his stepfather.

Jormungandr was clearly a bit bewildered. Beneath its massive, silvery-white scales, black smoke billowed out as it opened and closed, accompanied by a faint smell of roasted meat and rotten stench that drifted in the wind.

In pain, it opened its mouth wide and twisted its body, startling the seawater and causing several huge ironclad ships to capsize, turning them into floating wreckage on the sea surface, leaving a scene of utter devastation.

Lin Nan did not shy away from the giant's twisting motion; instead, he climbed onto the scales and unleashed a series of punches, acting like a madman.

There's no other reason than practice makes perfect.

The moment he touched the slippery snakeskin, goosebumps rose all over his body.

Some people shrink back when faced with something they fear, but Lin Nan does the opposite; he only goes berserk.

He kept punching, blasting bloody holes into the giant snake's body.

Thor was not to be outdone. His hammer, crackling with lightning, pounded down on Jormungandr, tearing the vast Pacific Ocean apart with lightning and causing the seawater to almost boil.

This battle, which resembled the descent of ancient gods, instantly attracted the attention of satellites from various countries.

Inside the S.H.I.E.L.D. operations room, Nick Fury, who rushed in, saw the satellite image as soon as he entered. Like Tom from Tom and Jerry, his jaw was almost dislocated and fell to the ground.

Black Widow followed behind, her beautiful eyes wide open, unable to utter a single word.

Director Nick Fury was clearly a man of the world; after all, he had an old friend who roamed the universe, meddling in everything.

It recovered in just a few seconds.

Coulson approached, looking tense: "Director, this is footage from the eastern Pacific coast. One side in the battle is a snake-like creature, and its energy readings are unusually alarming."

"On the other hand, based on preliminary image identification, it should be the Knight and Thor."

Nick Fury had a headache. He rubbed his dark temples. "I just got back from the Hand's stronghold and saw the knight leading the Asgardians in another big incident. Don't tell me that snake is the dragon the Hand found."

"It's unlikely that another Godzilla will emerge from the seabed in a few years!"

Coulson didn't reply, but said in a low voice, "Should we send fighter jets to provide support?"

"Support? This kind of support? That Asgardian Thor has turned the entire sea and sky into a sea of ​​lightning. Are fighter jets just going to their deaths?"

"Let's wait and see. Let these gods fight it out. Once the situation stabilizes, we'll intervene when the time is right."

Nick Fury's tone was not good. He had always been disgusted by this kind of uncontrollable and irrational power, but his disgust was useless and there was no way to restrain it.

One reassuring thing is that the Knights have a pretty good relationship with S.H.I.E.L.D., at least for now they're still friends.

The battle on the sea had reached a fever pitch. Loki hid to one side, tightly gripping the small chain around his neck.

With this thing, you can't run far even if you want to. You can only let the residual lightning in the air hit you one wave after another, and half of your body is already paralyzed.

Jormungandr raised his head and let out one mournful cry after another, his nostrils and mouth constantly spewing out dark green, murky breath.

But Lin Nan was like a leech sucking blood from its body, burrowing into its flesh and blood, punching it again and again, leaving it covered in blood.

Thor unleashed bolt after bolt of lightning from the outside, causing both external and internal injuries. Jormungandr, in pain, had his outer silver scales shatter, revealing a dense array of runes.

Lin Nan, who was buried in flesh and blood, felt a strong repulsive force and was ejected.

Before it could even switch forms in mid-air, Jormungandr opened its massive maw, creating a huge green vortex that devoured everything around it.

Lin Nan, who was suspended in mid-air with no foothold, was drawn in by this tremendous force and, like dust being sucked up by a vacuum cleaner, was swallowed directly into its mouth.

Although the other half of the giant snake lacked skin, its internal organs were almost fully formed.

Thor's eyes widened as he swung his hammer, smashing it into Jormungandr's broad head, creating one large crater after another: "Spit it out! Spit it out!"

Loki, hidden on the surface of the sea, felt a sudden unease. As an Asgardian mage, he had read accounts of Jormungandr.

Once swallowed, death is practically certain.

If we convert that to the time it takes for someone in Midgard to get out, in less than half a minute, the magic array within Jormungandr's body would completely devour Lin Nan's entire body and spirit, turning him into nutrients, so that he wouldn't even be able to defecate.

What makes Jormungandr so terrifying is its insatiable nature; its belly is a true hell, and a force as great as the Hulk is simply not enough to escape in half a minute.

The S.H.I.E.L.D. members watching the satellite images also fell silent.

Although the image is blurry due to the thunderstorm, it is still clear that the knight was swallowed by the monster.

Inside the Stark Tower laboratory, Tony, who was watching the battle on a holographic projection, suddenly froze in his relaxed posture, his right hand gripping his wine glass tightly, making a crisp crunching sound.

Everyone watching this scene fell silent.

Thor, in the heat of battle, had almost gone mad. He smashed his hammer against the giant serpent's head again and again, roaring, "Spit it out!"

But Jormungandr never vomits up what it has eaten, and a hint of smugness flashed in its last remaining golden vertical pupil.

Despite being brutally beaten by Odin's son and this mysterious armor, it still emerged victorious, consuming one and then devouring the second, in a continuous cycle, growing stronger and stronger until it finally consumed the entire world.

But then it suddenly froze.

It heard a voice coming from its stomach: "Never read Journey to the West? You eat everything?"

"Sister-in-law, open your mouth, I'm coming out!"

Chapter 120 Dragon Prince

The voice came from Jormungandr's belly. It suddenly felt a piercing pain in its abdomen, and even the magic circle engraved on its stomach was being pulled and torn apart.

Jormungandr's belly slowly swelled up, growing larger and larger, like a sturdy, high-quality little umbrella with excellent elasticity.

In an instant, his abdomen had grown to over a kilometer wide, like a giant sail, and continued to expand.
