Chapter 460: Undead, Summoning Souls
Whenever these non-corporeal black specter creatures disappeared into the ruins' tunnels, dense gunfire would soon erupt from the underground tunnels and ruins. The gunfire often attracted more extraterrestrial life forms. Six-legged alien monsters, massive as buildings, arrived following the sound. They used their strong hooked feet to push aside the gravel covering the tunnel surface in just a few movements. Like catching gophers on Earth, they used their massive, bulldozer-like mouths at the front to directly bite a huge Hole through the several-meter-thick, cement-poured top layer of the tunnel.
"Enemy attack!"
An Earth Alliance Soldier was gripping the handles of a heavy machine gun with both hands, pulling the trigger, and continuously firing at the gray mist specters.
The dense armor-piercing rounds shattered the specter monsters, but they quickly reassembled.
These gray mist specters continuously approached the Soldiers in the tunnel. Whenever a Soldier couldn't dodge in time and was pounced upon by these specters, the Soldier's eyes would immediately turn a hazy gray. Grabbing the firearms in their hands, they would ruthlessly kill their own comrades.
However, it was clear that the Soldiers in the tunnel were well aware of these gray mist specters. As soon as the eyes of the controlled Soldiers changed color, they were shot into sieves by their former teammates.
And with the death of the possessed Soldier, the gray mist specter that had entered their Body would also disappear.
Codename: "Fog Ghost"
Danger Level: Level 3! A parasitic extraterrestrial life form, non-corporeal, capable of possessing the Brains of Ordinary People and controlling their Behavior.
Weakness: A Fog Ghost possessing a Host will temporarily lose its immunity to physical Attack. Killing the Host before it leaves the Body will cause the Fog Ghost to perish with it.
The extraterrestrial life form illustrated guide distributed by the Earth Alliance Command Post down to the squad level detailed the Fog Ghost's Attack methods and Weaknesses.
This data and the illustrated guides were valuable experience bought with the Blood of hundreds of thousands of Allied Forces Soldiers who had sacrificed their Lives.
Like the Fog Ghost, this shapeless extraterrestrial life form could directly penetrate the reinforced concrete walls of Secret Passages seven or eight meters thick. The underground Secret Passage network of the Earth Alliance's major battle zones was almost completely wiped out because of them.
In the end, they had no choice but to make a drastic sacrifice, detonating nuclear bombs in the Secret Passages, burying nearly a hundred thousand Soldiers controlled by Fog Ghosts along with several Secret Passages on Titan.
Consequently, many Secret Passages lost contact with each other. Soldiers in the Secret Passage Pit Holes who lost supplies could only rely on limited firepower to fight a bloody battle against these extraterrestrial life forms!
The Soldier, who was pulling the heavy machine gun's trigger, suddenly felt the Sky above him brighten significantly. At the same time, large amounts of slime dripped down from above. He looked up and realized that the reinforced concrete ceiling had disappeared at some point.
A massive mouth, chewing on soil and spraying cement chunks into dust, was gnawing down towards him. The viscous liquid was saliva dripping from that huge mouth!
"Ah!"
Looking at the approaching huge mouth, and the sharp, interlocked fangs within it! The Soldier was startled, letting out an unconscious scream. He drew his handgun, aimed at the huge mouth above, and fired "Bang! Bang! Bangbangbangbangbang!"
Emptying the pistol magazine in one breath, the Soldier looked at the unharmed giant beast's mouth. He let out a tragic laugh. Just as the huge mouth was about to swallow him, he decisively pulled the pin on the hand grenade on his Body.
"Yanzi, I'll marry you in the next Life!"
"Boom!"
The glorious bullet, with increased explosive charge, detonated inside the war beast's huge mouth. Thick black smoke immediately billowed from the massive burrowing war beast's nasal cavity and mouth, and it frantically thrashed its head.
It nearly threw off the few slender, bamboo-like Soldiers riding on its back, who had two pairs of tentacles growing from their heads.
As the tentacles on the heads of these Alien Soldiers swayed, silent frequencies rapidly spread through the air. Soon, a large swarm of bird-sized alien flying insects appeared in the Sky, black as crows. These alien flying insects flapped their translucent wings and swarmed into the exposed tunnel entrance. "Rumble!"
Along with a large number of small alien war beasts continuously pouring into the tunnel, a violent roar finally erupted from within the tunnel, shaking the Ground. Gravel on the Ground was blown up over ten meters high.
The Alien Soldiers on the giant burrowing war beast seemed accustomed to this scene.
"Rustle, rustle"
"Rustle, rustle"
"Rustle, rustle"
Several Alien Creatures swayed their tentacles, seemingly communicating in some way. Soon, they reached a consensus. As the tentacles on their heads rose high, the surrounding war beasts that had gathered rushed in all directions.
Some war beasts lay on the Ground, using their sensitive sense of smell to sniff the taste of the underground. Others used their claws to continuously excavate the soil on the Ground.
The massive six-legged war beasts, with mouths like bulldozers, dug several-meter-deep large Holes in the surface in just a few bites—
But neither the canine war beasts with sensitive sense of smell nor the Aliens with strange tentacles seemed to notice that a group of people had abruptly appeared just dozens of steps away from them.
"Boss! It seems the Earth Alliance can't hold on any longer!" Kane looked at the Corpses being dragged out of the Pit Holes by the alien war beasts, torn apart and desecrated, and frowned.
Looking from this high vantage point, as far as the gaze could reach, the Earth Alliance's trace could no longer be seen across most of Titan. Disc-shaped space fighters whizzed past in the high altitude.
The thousands of armored troop transports carrying hundreds of thousands of Chitauri Soldiers, winding and moving like snakes in the air, and the dense, bizarre-looking Alien Soldiers on the Ground, all indicated the failure of the Earth Alliance.
"Boom boom boom boom boom!"
Space fighters whizzed past, launching energy cannon fire attacks on the ruined Ground. After the energy cannon fire, Kane's nostrils twitched slightly. He smelled the taste of blood mixed with soil in the wind. The blood still carried a warm, bloody scent.
On Titan, giant mushroom clouds rose from time to time. These nuclear bombs were the Earth Alliance's final trump card. Each nuclear bomb explosion represented a complete loss of a position, with no possibility of retaking it.
"Resisting the attacks of so many alien civilizations with the Strength of one Planet, they've done well enough to last these few days!"
Tang Song took a cigar from his cigar box, lit it, and put it in his Mouth. As he puffed smoke, he watched the rampaging alien war beasts with cold eyes, shaking his Head.
After smoking half a cigar, Tang Song flicked the half-smoked cigar away. The cigar landed on the rear of a burrowing war beast that was aggressively gnawing on the Ground. An intense heat instantly enveloped it. The next second, this giant beast, which had caught a high-explosive grenade in its mouth, turned into ash amidst a shower of burning sparks.
"We took the Money, so we have to do the job. Hela, I'll leave this to you! The flesh and blood are yours, but leave the Souls, I have use for them!"
When Hela heard Tang Song's words, a flicker of excitement flashed in her eyes. She spread her hands, and a blood-colored light flame flickered in her eyes.
Accompanied by a gray-white airflow spreading at her Feet, an invisible fluctuation diffused from her Body. It was the Death Divinity pulsating with rules.
Wherever the fluctuation released by Hela passed, the previously lifeless Corpses' eyes suddenly reopened. However, this time, their eye sockets no longer contained eyeballs, but instead two clusters of green ghost fire.
The war beasts that were tearing at the Earth Alliance Corpses were bewildered, not knowing what was happening, when they were enveloped by the gray-white airflow spreading from Hela's Feet.
The Divine Power of Death effortlessly peeled the flesh and blood from the bones of these war beasts. The purest essence blood from the flesh and blood turned into wisps of blood mist and entered Hela's Body.
The gray-white airflow spread along the bone of these alien war beasts, which had turned into skeletons, reaching their heads. Green gleam also flickered in their eye sockets.
The sound of rustling soil turning over echoed. From the collapsed tunnels, bone claws covered in black smoke reached out! A powerful necromantic aura permeated the entire Sky of Titan. The screams of countless Yin Souls were practically dragging the Souls of the living beings directly out of their Bodies and into Hell.
Clusters of gray-white dark clouds covered the entire Battlefield. The Alien Coalition Forces who were searching for those hiding in the Secret Passages were horrified to discover that the Earthlings who had died beneath their feet had suddenly resurrected. They wielded the weapons in their hands, letting out terrifying hoarse roars, and wildly hacked and slashed at them.
Thanos, who was Outside the solar system, and the alien civilizations around Titan, all saw the bizarre scene on Titan through the reconnaissance satellites spread across the Sky of Titan.
The gray-white airflow was like a hurricane, sweeping across the entire Titan. Wherever the hurricane passed, the dead resurrected, turning into undead creatures, and launched an Attack on the Alien Coalition Forces troops on the surface of Titan.
At the same time, in the areas covered by the gray smoke, countless phosphorescence flickered. Gradually, these flickering phosphorescence formed a giant magic array.
Countless black light rays shot down from the Sky. Each black light ray that landed immediately transformed into an Undead Knight riding a skeleton horse and wearing a horned helmet!
That was the Army of the Dead that had been slumbering underground in Asgard, summoned to Titan by their Master!
"Hmm! The Power of Death!" Thanos stroked his chin, looking at the scene of Titan displayed on the light screen before him! Nearly a hundred thousand Asgardian Death Warriors, clad in black armor, shrouded in thick necromantic aura, with green gleam flickering in their eyes, led millions of skeleton Soldiers shrouded in black mist, launching indiscriminate Attacks on the living beings on the surface.
Thanos gently frowned and muttered in a low voice, "Another Evil God who desecrates Death. How dare you call yourself Death?!"
Proxima Midnight and Ebony Maw knelt on one knee beneath the Throne of Sanctuary, not daring to breathe, awaiting Thanos's command.
"You two lead a team to Titan to support Corvus Glaive! Bring back Hela's Head!!"
On Titan, on the broken half of the Mountain Peak, countless complex talismans were carved on the fractured surface. These talismans formed a massive formation covering an area of several thousand meters.
In the center of this massive formation, Tang Song, with disheveled hair, was sword-wielding. He first exerted strength with his five fingers, crushing the Cosmic Cube in his Palm, revealing an irregularly shaped blue gemstone inside.
Then he took out several Yin Qi-filled white bone banners, used his fingers to draw several talismans on the white bone banners, and Tang Song even dripped his fingertip blood to fill the talismans.
After all the white bone banners were inscribed with talismans, Tang Song then threw out eighteen white bone demonic gods and piled them with the white bone banners to form a white bone Altar. Tang Song placed the blue gemstone on the Altar.
As soon as the Soul Summoning Platform took shape, a low, evil spell sounded on Titan, as if an evil ghost that had been lurking in the Earth's core for countless years was slowly awakening from its Slumber. Gusts of Yin wind swept across Titan from nowhere.
The Souls of the extraterrestrial life forms swallowed by the undead sea were swept by the Yin wind into the Altar, turning into an inconspicuous red light.
Tang Song took out crystal balls one by one and crushed them. After each crystal ball was crushed, Yin Souls drifted out and merged into the red light.
As the red light on the Altar gathered more and more, it converged into trembling, gelatinous substances resembling two masses of congested blood. Finally, Tang Song took out a bowl of golden liquid, mixed it with these two gelatinous substances, and condensed it into a golden rope dripping with a red radiance like bloodstains, resembling a talismanic rope.
To one side of the formation was a large silver-gray metal ring chamber. Inside the metal ring chamber, on a submarine-like quantum shuttle, MODOK, sitting in the Driver's Cab with a bitter face, put on the Ant-Man Suit. Extremely unwillingly, he allowed this strange rope emitting red light to enter his Body, and then resignedly activated the quantum shuttle.
As the quantum shuttle disappeared into the quantum shuttle, the talismanic rope extending deep into The Void immediately tightened.
Deep within the Quantum Realm, Dr. Hank Pym sat inside a quantum shuttle, watching helplessly as a human-faced bird-bodied figure with six bird claws, four fleshy wings, and red scales all over its Body continuously disappeared amidst flashes of golden light, only to quickly reappear before him.
This strange bird, with a face identical to Tang Song's, tightly clutched a golden orb of light in its claws. But that orb of light seemed to have life, dragging him into World after World.
"You have the guts to drag me into the Primordial Era, cackle, One Piece, Naruto, do you think the attacks of those pirates and ninjas can harm me!! Stop struggling, isn't it better to obediently merge with me!"
The golden orb of light seemed to have a life of its own, struggling wildly in Tang Song's hand, dragging him into another patch of golden light.
