In the gray space with nothing, a transport helicopter wrapped in green light was flying forward.

However, since there are no reference objects around, its speed and altitude cannot be confirmed. The only way to confirm that it is still moving forward is through the noisy words that continue to appear and gradually disappear from the cabin.

"Okay! This is our first target, the 'Bad Sector'!" Wade pointed to the airspace below the empty helicopter: "This is the territory of [World Eating Evil] Nidhogg. Maybe you have heard of this guy.

, it spent its whole life gnawing at the roots of the World Tree without breaking it. Later, it was invited to participate in the Twilight of the Gods, but because it was too slow to summon his undead minions, it failed to catch up with the Asgard battle, and finally ended up with the

A large number of undead souls fell into the underworld together."

"In other words, we will encounter many undead monsters, and finally have to face a dragon?" Thomas pressed his helmet: "That's really cool."

"Leave the scattered little skeletons and little zombies to Lao Argon and Wuming to contain and attract attention," Wade waved his hand: "JJ went to find the location of the greedy dragon. We sneaked over and Zong Zheng chopped it down with one knife.

, finish the work and call it a day.”

"What about me?" Thomas asked.

"You can participate in any battle on either side. Actual combat is the best way to familiarize yourself with the use of green light energy." Wade opened the hatch: "If there is no problem, let's parachute!"

Whirring whirring--

The Argonian, the Bladesmith, the Amphibian Doctor and even the Lighthouse Jellyfish all jumped out without any hesitation.

"Wait? Where is the parachute bag?" Thomas looked around anxiously.

"I used green light energy to transform myself, recruit."

"No, don't push me, ah——!"

——???——

Poof, crackle, goo.

"This place is so disgusting. There is mud under our feet."

"Sounds like you're lucky, I can fly."

"Everyone, keep the green light energy to protect you. They are not mud, but the symbiont created by Gnar. As long as it comes into contact with the skin, it will penetrate into your body and forcibly control you. Although I have a way to relieve the penetration, I don't think you want to try it.

Tried.”

"Humph, [the woven thread of life]? Since it has an entity, it can be cut."

When Thomas landed on the surface of Nar, he saw that his teammates had just used green light energy to disperse a large area of ​​"mud" on the surface, revealing a bare stone surface.

"Nar, where are you?" The Argonian looked up at Wade, who was landing behind Thomas.

"That guy is underground." After Wade landed, he used his saber to poke around on the stone surface: "The entire planet is its cage. We must dig a deep hole and go below the earth's crust to reach its body.

.”

"If it is locked up, wouldn't it be good to keep it locked up? Why take the initiative to attack?" Thomas asked.

"Have you seen the mud around you? Those who were originally Gnar's jailers have now become his subordinates. If we start digging holes, they will immediately start attacking." Wade pointed towards the "mud waves" on the outside.

Liao pointed out: "Things like 'symbionts' will only become more and more difficult to deal with if left alone."

"In this case, I will do this non-technical thing, and you can just focus on fighting." Thomas concentrated his willpower and tried to gather a drilling rig.

Zhizhi—buzz!

When the drilling rig appeared and started working, the endless "mud" from all directions swarmed up towards us as if it was stimulated.

"Here they come!"

Lao Argon condensed a thick and huge armor, and it opened and closed on the front line and kicked up lumps of mud. Zongzheng Mo pressed the handle of the sword without unsheathing it, but strange sword lights kept flashing in front of him, and he Clumps of mud were chopped up, and Wumingser condensed something like a spray machine, hanging in the air and spraying water in all directions, causing the "mud" that touched the "water" to melt and disappear, while the Starry Night Soul JJ floated Continuously use colors and arrows to indicate the direction of the next wave of attacks.

"Why don't you fight?" Thomas directed the drill while looking at Wade who was doing nothing.

"Uncle Deadpool is protecting you."

"..."

——???——

Phew—winter, winter!

Zongzheng Mo, Starry Night Soul JJ, Wade and Thomas finally reached the bottom of the hollow beneath the surface after a long fall.

"Damn! Old man! Nameless!" Thomas looked up and saw nothing but heavy fog.

"They will be fine," the lighthouse jellyfish exuded a dull light: "Those 'Hydra' members are just ordinary humans. Even with some enhancements, it is impossible to harm the 'Green Lantern'. Human sea tactics can't deal with an energy There's no point in having enough Green Lanterns, especially with our Doctor still up there."

"But..." Thomas wanted to say something else.

"Focus on the current task!" Zong Zhengmo glanced at him.

"[Whisper of the Void] Jörmungandr can actually bring the souls of all the dead 'Hydra' here and reshape them." Wade touched his chin and looked around: "I heard it is the Hydra. The origin of the organization now seems to be true."

"Please... find... the true body of Jörmungandr as soon as possible..." the voice of the lighthouse jellyfish began to become erratic: "As the distance increases, its impact on the spiritual level becomes greater and greater. I... am about to support it. Can’t stand it anymore…”

"[Hiss—another lighthouse jellyfish?]"

At this time, a strange sound from nowhere sounded in the hollow:

"[Hiss - you are just very strong mentally, but you are not immune to 'mental interference', and you -]"

"Kill!" Zongzheng Mo suddenly drew his sword, and the white sword light even illuminated the hollow for a moment.

At this moment, everyone present saw a huge snake-shaped shadow cut in two by the sword light, and the strange voice that seemed to have something to say disappeared halfway.

"I feel...the mental pressure is gone..." Lighthouse Jellyfish said in a relieved tone.

"Did it work?" Thomas asked.

"Oh! God! Do you know what you just said?!" Wade covered his mouth with his hands and his voice was shocked.

"[Hiss, hahaha! Cut off one head and two will grow!]"

The missing voice reappeared, and this time it sounded like two people harmonizing.

"No...gu..." The starlight on the lighthouse jellyfish flashed wildly, as if it was engaging in some kind of difficult confrontation.

"[Ah~ Isn't this the jellyfish of the 'Starry Night Soul' family?]" The strange voice brought a little joy: "[Do you know a guy named KK? His spirit is very strong, but I still don't know it."

He dug something out of his mind. He was tricked into investigating me by a guy named 'Deadpool'. Before meeting me, he actually thought it was a mass hysteria incident. It's really interesting, isn't it? 】

"

"Don't believe anything [Whisper of the Void] says!" Zong Zhengmo reminded loudly, but it was already too late.

"I...no...Long live Hydra!" All the starlight on the lighthouse jellyfish was instantly extinguished.

At the same time, a huge mental pressure fell on others.

"Gu..." Thomas half-knelt on the ground without checking for a moment.

"Hmph - cut!" The red-haired swordsman slashed out two swords again, cutting the two snake-shaped shadows into four parts: "'Deadpool'! Take 'Abin Su' away!"

"I don't……"

"[Oh hahaha...didn't I say that? Cut off one head and two will grow~]" This time, "Jörmungandr" recovered faster, and its voice became a quartet: "[You guys"

——】"

What answered it was another blazing white sword light.

"Zong——"

"Get out!" The swordsmith was covered in blood, as if he had paid a huge price for the previous cuts.

Thomas was speechless, and Wade grabbed him and ran away quickly in the opposite direction.

"[Hehe——you——]" "Behead!"

"[Cut down one——]" "...Cut it down!"

"[I said? Do you want to value your life? I won't kill -]" "...Hu...kill!"

Behind the two people, there was only the shadow of the giant snake that was constantly reborn and increasing in value, and the blazing white sword light that appeared without stopping.

——???——

Thomas and Wade are in the ruins of an abandoned temple.

"Huh...huh...huh..." Thomas put his hands on his knees and gasped for air, but the green light energy in his hands was running out.

"It should be safe here, although I really want to say so... but the entire planet is under the surveillance range of [Device of Desire] 'Yin Ge', or in other words, he is the planet itself." Wade lay down next to him with his arms stretched out.

.

"Damn it!" Thomas punched the ground: "Since he had no intention of letting us go from the beginning, why did he use his avatar to actively receive us?"

"The power of the 'Instrument of Desire'," Wade bared his teeth: "As the will of the planet, he can easily accept our 'wishes'. Some people probably have the idea of ​​'maybe this matter can be resolved peacefully'."

"I admit that was my idea, but what about the lighthouse jellyfish tour group, the patients in urgent need of treatment, the lonely swordsman, and the Argonians who accidentally ended up here?" Thomas' eyes were dull.

"His logic is, 'If I fulfill your wish, then I will accept your lives,'" Wade said: "That is, he was unable to fulfill your and my wishes, which gave us a chance to escape.

.”

"Of course repairing bad sectors cannot be solved peacefully, but... what is your wish?" Thomas looked at Wade: "A large amount of merit and energy coins?"
