Beast Taming: Abyssal Descent-Chapter 385 - 319: Quicksilver and Wanda
The high-temperature laser cutting instantly pierced through the flesh of the octopus’s tentacles, slicing into them.
The octopus’s energy shield only covered its head, offering no protection for its tentacles.
However, the base of its tentacles, each several meters thick, could only be cut to a little over a meter by the laser before being blocked by something, preventing further cutting.
Iron Man circled around a thick tentacle, using the laser to cut around it. Though it made the tentacle sluggish, it didn’t sever it completely.
"Sir, a high-energy reaction has been detected within the tentacles. It’s speculated that the giant octopus’s tentacles can conduct energy defense."
The laser cutting is impressive, but the octopus’s tentacles aren’t easy to sever.
Beneath the flesh and skin, energy pulses within the tentacles, resisting the laser energy’s cuts.
Thus, the laser only manages to slice the surface and some flesh of the octopus; the inner parts remain uncut.
However, even this causes the octopus to feel intense pain from the tentacle being cut, making it even more frenzied.
Unfortunately, Iron Man is too small and fast, slipping away, making it impossible to catch him.
Meanwhile, the enraged Green Fatty charges viciously at the base of the octopus’s tentacles, tearing off chunks of flesh in a frenzy.
This frustrates the octopus immensely. Unable to kill it, it attempts to throw its opponent away, but the large green creature holds onto its tentacle tightly, making it impossible to shake off.
After being bombarded by energy light beams for over thirty seconds, the octopus roars in anger and reluctantly retreats back into the ocean.
It had already understood the intentions of these pests, merely driving it back into the sea.
Glancing at the city it had destroyed, the octopus rolled its large eye, then submerged into the sea without looking back.
As it entered the sea, it unhesitatingly grabbed the Green Fatty with a tentacle, dragging him into the water as well.
The octopus swims with incredible speed, and since Yokohama City is a large port, it quickly submerged into the depths of the ocean.
"Fuck! It took Hulk with it."
Tony Stark cursed with a look of frustration.
"No need to worry, the ocean won’t harm Hulk."
Peggy Carter’s voice sounded over the communicator.
At this moment, with a "boom," the second Quinjet exploded violently.
Fortunately, with Tony’s reminder, the countdown to the energy weapon’s destruction had ten seconds left, so the pilot pulled out a parachute pack, opened the hatch, and jumped out.
Gwen and Peter, waiting nearby, quickly spun a web to catch him, then carried him swiftly to the battlefield’s edge.
"Fuck! The giant octopus hasn’t gone back to the deep sea but is circling around, intending to re-land!"
At this point, Stark cursed again.
To deal with the octopus, he had created an energy source detector radar that could detect high-energy reactions.
At this moment, the detector showed the octopus hadn’t submerged into the deep sea but was swimming around the island.
Clearly, the creature, having ravaged Yokohama City, wasn’t willing to give up the delicious blood meals there.
"Contact the nearby garrison, Tony, send its coordinates over, and bombard it with high-power torpedoes!"
Peggy Carter immediately gave the order while glancing at Nick Fury watching on the side.
"I’ll contact the nearby garrison now!"
Nick Fury squinted his one eye, then took out his phone and dialed a number, while moving to an empty seat, making a call and operating a computer simultaneously.
S.H.I.E.L.D. naturally doesn’t have the authority to mobilize military forces, and the relationship between S.H.I.E.L.D. and the American military isn’t great.
Especially now, with Dr. Banner joining S.H.I.E.L.D., General Ross was gnashing his teeth and used some internal military connections to blacklist S.H.I.E.L.D.
Fortunately, the military cooperated this time, and a nearby carrier fleet received the command from their superiors and dared not play tricks.
Hundreds of torpedoes were launched under Stark’s coordination.
For a moment, the explosions constantly spread through the ocean, and nearby fish and shrimp suffered collateral damage.
Countless fish and shrimp, either killed or injured by the shockwaves, floated to the surface in large numbers.
One must know, the coastal waters around "Little Day" are large fishing grounds, and now the fleet’s bombardment has caused enormous losses, surely making "Little Day" feel heartache.
For over a hundred bombings, the octopus wasn’t unscathed.
After all, it was flesh and blood, and its energy shield only covered the head, providing little defense for the tentacles.
Several tentacles were blown off, but for the octopus, regrowing its tentacles isn’t difficult, and by using its internal energy, it can even accelerate the regrowth.
However, this time the octopus was hurt, speeding up its swimming and beginning to dive into the deep sea.
As for destroying the fleet, it wasn’t in a rush, wanting to deal with the captured Green Fatty first.
The Green Fatty, entangled by a tentacle, wasn’t staying still, using his immense strength to tear off flesh from the tentacle.
Both sides were locked in a relentless fight, neither able to defeat the other.
In fact, one might say, the octopus was at a disadvantage against Green Fatty.
An enraged Tier Nine Hulk, with thick skin, immense strength, and outstanding recovery, was unmanageable for the octopus.
Instead, Green Fatty could constantly tear apart the tentacle entangling him.
Diving, diving, and diving deeper...
At three thousand meters below, the immense water pressure was insignificant for the octopus but unfriendly to Green Fatty.
The vast pressure felt like a mountain pressing on him, significantly hindering his movements.
The only consolation is that Tier Nine Hulk can absorb oxygen through his skin, preventing suffocation and drowning.
Due to genetic mutation, Green Fatty’s cells have always adapted to their environment.
Honestly, if he stayed in the ocean long enough, he might even mutate the ability for underwater breathing.
However, Hulk doesn’t enjoy the ocean’s sensation at all.
The immense water pressure makes him extremely uncomfortable, and he struggles against the resistance of the seawater.
At this moment, Hulk has no desire to kill the octopus; instead, he wants to free himself from its grasp.
"Tsk tsk, the octopus is trying to drown Hulk."
Mo Qingchen watched the projection from the Wolf King scanning the scene and building a model.
It showed the octopus and Green Fatty as two energy sources, continuously engaged in battle, though the image was somewhat distorted.
"Master, information on Quicksilver and Wanda has been discovered."
At this time, the voice of the little assistant echoed again. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂
"They’ve finally been found? But without Loki’s Scepter of the Mind, it seems their abilities can’t awaken."
In the Marvel Universe, Quicksilver and Wanda have various backstories, including being the offspring of the Magnetic King in several setups.
Unfortunately, in this merged Marvel world, mutants haven’t appeared, meaning they’re not the Magnetic King’s children.
"Master, Quicksilver and Wanda have already awakened their ability, but it’s not strong."
A very detailed intelligence report appeared before Mo Qingchen.
"Who would’ve thought? Their abilities awakened when their parents died, so Hydra caught them as test subjects."
