The extraterrestrial lifeform battling Thor resembled an enormous lizard, its size magnified a hundredfold. It stood at nearly eight meters in height and stretched to thirty meters in length.
It had three pairs of pitch-black wings that covered the sky, and its entire body was covered in tough, thick, jet-black scales and bumps. Its short, sturdy limbs were planted firmly on the ground, making him look like an Iron Fortress sprawled across the plains.
It somewhat resembled a black dragon from Western mythology on Earth, albeit far less hideous than depicted in the myths.
When faced with Thor’s full-strength blow from his Hammer, a small section of scales on the black dragon’s head shattered, forming a hammer-shaped depression. Fizzling electric sparks lingered on the damaged area, and foul black blood oozed from it, splattering onto the ground below.
However, given its colossal size, this injury amounted to little more than a surface wound.
The black dragon’s crimson eyes widened in anger, and its blood-red pupils reflected Thor’s figure before it. It suddenly tilted its head upward and roared into the sky.
“Roar!!!”
The roar of the dragon reverberated across the wilderness, creating actual shockwaves that sent shockwaves and sand flying. Even Kyle, fifty meters away, felt his eardrums ache and instinctively covered his ears.
If it were any other god, they might have retreated in the face of such an intimidating display. However, the extraterrestrial lifeform, resembling a black dragon, encountered Thor, a rough-and-tough guy with various nicknames like the Thunder God and the God of Hammers.
“Come on! Let’s see who’s afraid of whom?”
Thor shouted provocatively at the black dragon while raising his mighty hammer. He transformed into a streak of blue lightning and launched an aggressive assault against the colossal lifeform, which dwarfed him by dozens of times.
The black dragon, one of the dominant lifeforms on this planet, couldn’t tolerate the provocation from an outsider. It let out a deep growl, flapped its wings violently, and swiftly took to the sky, engaging Thor in close combat.
The battle between a god and an ancient extraterrestrial creature had only just begun.
Hidden behind the hillside, Kyle suddenly took out a bag of seeds, cracking them open one by one as he patiently observed the unfolding battle.
Now was not the right time.
To borrow the Bifrost from Asgard, the simplest and most direct method was to become friends with Thor, Odin’s son.
So, the question was, how could he make friends with a god in a short amount of time?
Kyle thought about it and quickly came up with a clichéd idea— saving the hero! This trick wasn’t just effective on women; it worked on men as well.
Back on the battlefield, he had successfully used this tactic with Steve. As the saying goes, love fades, but schemes remain.
“When Thor is nearing his limit, I’ll take action and make him owe me a favor,” Kyle pondered. His gaze remained fixed on the intense battle in the distance.
The violent electromagnetic storm raged on, sending rocks and debris flying everywhere. Within a radius of fifty meters, a storm had formed, and any ordinary lifeform caught within would be pierced by flying stones or stray electrical currents.
Thor and the Ancient Black Dragon were undoubtedly “powerful” lifeforms by cosmic standards. Their battle was several times more brutal than anything Kyle had witnessed in the Sakaar Dueling Arena.
*Rumble!*
The black dragon, now bloodied from the battle, went berserk in its fury. It twisted its body violently in mid-air and swung its tail like a whip, sending Thor, who was nearby, flying like a fly.
Thor’s helmet shattered, and he emitted a painful groan as he was thrown like a meteor, landing about fifty meters away. He crashed into the hillside where Kyle was hiding, causing rocks to collapse and bury him within.
As a precaution, Kyle used his stealth skill, vanishing into the black mist right where he stood.
But within half a second, Thor emerged from the hillside, seemingly unharmed, his flowing golden hair adding to his imposing presence. Relying on his hammer, he accelerated to supersonic speeds, relentlessly closing the distance with the wounded black dragon.
In the air, his right hand held high, Thor’s hammer acted like a lightning rod. Thunderbolts from the sky struck it, and the power was channeled into his armor and body, amplifying his strength.
With electrifying eyes, Thor approached the hovering black dragon. He swung his hammer downward from above, and lightning pierced through one of the dragon’s wings, scorching it as black blood rained down like a storm.
The black dragon wailed and howled as its colossal body crashed onto the plain’s surface, causing the earth to tremble slightly. Thor, breathing heavily, swung his mighty hammer, leaving wounds of varying sizes on the black dragon’s massive body.
“This extraterrestrial creature isn’t putting up much of a fight,” Kyle muttered as he set aside the bag of seeds and furrowed his brow in thought.
At this rate, Thor would single-handedly defeat the black dragon, leaving no room for Kyle’s intervention.
It wasn’t that the black dragon wasn’t powerful; it was just that Thor was exceptionally strong!
As the son of Odin, the Allfather, Thor possessed the purest and most potent bloodline. His divine power manifested as destructive lightning, and with his divine weapon, Mjolnir, and the amplification from natural lightning…
Even if Kyle were to confront Thor directly now, the outcome wouldn’t be much better than what the black dragon was facing.
“This won’t work,” Kyle realized.
He thought for a moment, then suddenly had an idea. He drew a Lifeform Card and summoned a black liquid substance into his palm.
“Venom, are you awake yet?” Kyle inquired as he gently kneaded Venom’s soft, formless body between his fingers. But Venom remained unresponsive, like a silent slime in deep slumber.
“Master, its life symbol is incredibly weak. It must have expended a significant amount of energy during its battle in the arena. It won’t awaken for some time, even if it does. Recovery will take a while,” Vis replied softly.
Kyle looked at Venom on his right hand, hesitating. Then, he drew an Item Card with his left hand, transforming it into a shiny green bean, which he held between his fingers.
“I hope this works,” Kyle muttered, feeling slightly regretful as he broke the Immortal Bean in half and inserted one half directly into Venom’s body.
In the next moment, the Immortal Bean took effect as Venom’s formless body wriggled with excitement as countless black tendrils touched Kyle’s arm, conveying its joy and gratitude.
Kyle let out a sigh of relief, glanced at Venom, and gave a command, “Now, there’s something I need you to do immediately.”
Three seconds later, at the small hill where Kyle was hiding, a shallow black shadow slipped across the ground, stealthily infiltrating the battlefield without anyone noticing.
In the battle that was drawing to a close, the black dragon lay prostrate on the ground, weakly struggling. Thor stood atop its head, breathing heavily, his bloodied hammer raised high.
“It ends here!” Thor bellowed.
Thor swung his hammer, poised to deliver the final blow to the black dragon. However, at that moment, the black dragon suddenly widened its eyes and, as if injected with newfound energy, stood up and flung Thor off its head.
“Hmm? What’s this?” Thor exclaimed while stopping in mid-air, his gaze filled with shock and curiosity. Below, the black dragon’s body convulsed and trembled. Simultaneously, a dark, dual-layered lifeform armor emerged on its heavily scarred body, enhancing its scales’ defensive capabilities.
The already sharp claws and fangs elongated to over three meters, gleaming with a sinister black coldness.
Under the influence of this evolutionary boost, the black dragon’s eyes emitted a crimson light. Its feeble, exhausted aura rapidly surpassed its previous peak, surging toward the heavens as it unleashed a deafening roar!
The difficulty level had forcibly escalated, shifting from challenging to nightmare mode!
