Chapter 118
Thor gripped Mjolnir tightly and said in a deep voice.
"Yang, these bugs are really hard to deal with. Several of Asgard's fleets have already been lost."
Loki stood to the side, elegantly adjusting his cuffs with a reluctant tone.
"If the situation wasn't urgent, we wouldn't have come to Earth specifically to ask for help."
When he said the last two words, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly, clearly extremely unhappy inside.
As the Prince of Asgard — even if adopted — he had never been so humble before.
Yet now, his father had ordered him to come to Midgard with this stupid brother.
He glanced at Yang Jian. Loki felt extremely displeased, but there was nothing he could do.
This guy was about the same height as him, but how the hell did he build those damn muscles?!
After listening to everyone's report, Yang Jian simply smiled lightly.
"It does sound quite troublesome."
He looked up at the ever-expanding spatial rift in the sky, where swarms of black bugs were pouring out endlessly.
"But…"
Yang Jian flexed his wrists, and his black battle suit instantly covered his entire body.
"Dealing with them is actually very simple."
Rocket looked incredulous, his ears perked up: "Simple? You call this simple?"
Yang Jian didn't answer. He slowly floated into the air.
His eyes began to glow with scorching red light, and the air around him twisted from the intense heat.
"First."
He looked at the sky above, the corner of his mouth curling into a dangerous arc.
"Let them experience what a bug barbecue feels like."
Before he finished speaking, Yang Jian's eyes suddenly erupted with unprecedented scorching beams.
This wasn't ordinary heat vision — it was ultra-high-temperature rays reinforced by his internal energy!
The heat vision shot out from his eyes and rapidly expanded in the air.
The next second, two giant beams over ten meters in diameter shot skyward, instantly piercing the bug swarm.
The Annihilation Swarm that were hit didn't even have time to scream before they were vaporized!
"Whoa!!"
Rocket's eyes widened, his tone excited: "Fuck! What the hell kind of firepower is this?!"
Star-Lord's jaw nearly dropped to the sand. He looked at Yang Jian in disbelief: "God, is this Superman?"
Thor frowned slightly, then relaxed again: "Haha! That's what I'm talking about!"
Loki's elegant expression cracked: "This is impossible."
In the sky, Yang Jian's heat vision was like the Grim Reaper's scythe. Wherever it swept, the bug swarm turned to ash.
Even more terrifying was that the space along the beams' path was scorched with twisting cracks!
The three women standing on the beach couldn't help but sigh. Wanda exclaimed.
"Every time he makes a move, it's this exaggerated."
Mikaela laughed and shook her head: "This is what he calls 'simple'!"
Zhao Helen pushed up her glasses and calmly analyzed: "The temperature can't be calculated, but it definitely exceeds the surface of the sun!"
In just a few seconds, the first wave of tens of thousands of bugs had turned to ashes.
Yang Jian retracted his heat vision and casually landed back on the ground, as if he had just swatted a few mosquitoes.
"First phase complete."
He clapped his hands and looked at everyone with a relaxed tone.
"Now they should know that Earth isn't an all-you-can-eat buffet."
For these bugs, Yang Jian had only one method — direct extermination.
This was the optimal solution his super brain had told him.
Yes, just use your super power quickly!
Rocket stared blankly at his companions: "I suddenly feel like our previous escape was really stupid."
Star-Lord nodded woodenly, suddenly feeling that Earth wasn't as weak as he had imagined: "Why the hell did we run across half the galaxy hiding from these bugs?"
Thor took a deep breath, his eyes flashing with battle intent: "Yang, what's the next step?"
Yang Jian looked at the still-expanding rift in the sky, his smile gradually turning dangerous.
"Next?"
"We go to their nest and give them a lesson they'll never forget…"
"A pest control class."
Rocket immediately got excited upon hearing this, his paws gripping Star-Lord's shoulders tightly: "Wait wait wait! Where did you just say we're going? The bug nest?!"
Star-Lord's face turned green, as if he had heard something impossible: "Superman, this joke isn't funny at all!"
Is this even human talk? Going to the bug nest? Can an ordinary human like him do that?
Thor, however, excitedly swung Mjolnir: "Finally a proper battle plan!"
Loki quietly took half a step back and rolled his eyes: "I suddenly remember Mother asked me to come home for dinner today."
Yang Jian ignored everyone's reactions. His eyes flashed red, and his bio-field instantly enveloped everyone.
The next second, the surroundings froze. They had already appeared in low Earth orbit.
"Let me see where they are." Yang Jian's voice directly entered everyone's mind in the vacuum.
Yang Jian's super vision continued to scan, extending infinitely through the cosmic void.
Soon
"I've locked onto the swarm's energy source," he said directly.
Rocket looked down at the expensive observation equipment under his feet and deliberately bounced twice: "Whoa, Stark Industries touchscreen? Nice, very responsive~"
Gamora suddenly pointed into the distance: "Look!"
In space, at the gap Yang Jian had burned through the swarm, even more bugs were frantically pouring out.
Even more terrifying was that the new bugs' shells had new patterns.
"They're evolving!" Zhao Helen analyzed in time.
"They're adapting to your energy frequency!"
A trace of interest flashed in Yang Jian's eyes: "Interesting."
Thor swung his hammer: "Let me handle this!"
Lightning gathered on the hammer. With a swing from Thor, thunderbolts blasted toward the swarm.
But the patterns on the bugs' shells lit up, rapidly absorbing the lightning energy completely!
"What?!" Thor was dumbfounded.
Loki, not knowing what he was thinking, directly threw a dagger at the swarm.
Come, accept the judgment of the God of Mischief!
But unfortunately, the dagger was swallowed the moment it made contact.
"Damn! They can even eat magic!"
Star-Lord was firing wildly: "I told you we should run!"
Rocket fired while cursing: "Shut up, Quill! Turn off your music!"
Everyone: ......
Yang Jian watched the bugs curiously and suddenly smiled.
They can absorb energy? Good, good, good!
Looks like it's time to change the game.
He crossed his hands in front of his chest. The solar energy stored in his body began to boil.
The golden light under his skin grew brighter and brighter until finally
"Solar God's Light!"
A light brighter than a stellar explosion erupted!
All the bugs evaporated instantly in the intense light. Even their evolved resistance couldn't take effect in time.
"Energy level? This is impossible! Fuck! This is at least equivalent to a supernova explosion!" Thor cursed instantly.
After the light faded, space fell into instant silence.
Yang Jian flexed his wrists, feeling no pressure at all.
"Now, it's time to pay a visit to their main brain."
He had already determined the location, so he directly opened a spatial rift with one hand while grabbing the back of Loki's collar with the other, stopping the god who was trying to slip away.
"Don't be in such a hurry to leave, God of Stories. Don't you like watching the show?"
On the other side of the rift, a massive nest made of bug flesh and blood could be vaguely seen. In the center floated a bug main brain the size of the moon, holding a staff in its hand.
Everyone stared in shock at the sight.
Rocket swallowed hard: "I suddenly miss my prison cell!"
Yang Jian stepped into the rift first, his black cape fluttering wildly in the spatial storm.
"Welcome to the pest extermination center."
