Chapter 413 Narrow Death
The tentacle-like tissue comes from an ancient desert plant.
The gills that spit out large amounts of water jets are the ability of [Kazi] evolved from a water creature.
This kind of perfect combination of plant characteristics and animal characteristics can only be accomplished so easily by [Kaz], who is the [Ultimate Creature].
A large amount of water jets from his mouth sprayed onto Johnny opposite him like an endless stream.
Of course, the moisture absorbed by [Kazi] cannot be truly infinite. Although the tentacles are extremely capable of absorbing moisture in the air, there is still a lot of loss during the time they come and go. Fortunately, although the water column spewed by [Katz] is lossy, so is the flame on Johnny's body.
As a large amount of water jets fell, the flames on Johnny's body began to become difficult to maintain, and even had a vague feeling of extinguishing.
The Human Torch's flames are as strong as they come, but their weaknesses are also very obvious.
As an ability similar to natural fire, Johnny's process of generating flames requires the consumption of a large amount of oxygen. This is why when he was in the Hydra base, Tony was able to use the fire extinguishing device prepared in advance to extinguish the flames on his body. Put it out.
But now, [Kaz] has achieved the same fire-extinguishing effect as Tony before through the large amount of water jets produced from his mouth.
"Oops!"
Feeling the last jet of water sprayed from [Kazi]'s mouth extinguish the remaining flame on his body, Johnny's face suddenly changed in mid-air, his whole body wet.
Without the support of the flame, his original flying ability would naturally be unsustainable.
After all, in the final analysis, the reason why Johnny can fly at such a rapid speed is because of the fierce flames generated by his body.
Therefore, without the push of the flames, Johnny's entire body began to fall rapidly to the ground like a bird without wings.
"Johnny!"
In the off-road vehicle, Susan watched Johnny fighting with [Kaz] in mid-air as he fell straight down. The look in her eyes became a little more excited. Along with the violent fluctuations of emotions, the [Parasite Octopus] behind her neck Suddenly, he felt an unprecedented powerful force begin to emerge from Susan's body, shrinking his head, and the [Parasite Octopus] controlled the tentacles pierced into Susan's body to generate huge control force, and then suppressed this force again. go back.
"Light the fire, light the fire, light the fire for me!"
In mid-air, feeling the howling wind passing through his body, Johnny's eyes flashed with obvious panic. In his eyes that were blown open by the strong wind, the hard road on the ground was getting closer and closer.
Even after a few seconds, Johnny could imagine the consequences of contact between his body and the hard concrete floor.
Being bruised and bloody is the lightest fate.
Although the radiation from the space storm caused his body to mutate, he has the ability to withstand high temperatures far beyond ordinary people's physical fitness. However, this mutation has its limits after all, so Johnny doesn't feel that if he meets the ground head-on and embraces him passionately, there will be any possibility of survival waiting for him.
Therefore, looking at the road getting closer and closer, he began to shout wildly, urging the power in his body to ignite his body.
However, maybe it was because the surface of his body was soaked with a lot of water, but Johnny's process of creating flames never went smoothly.
boom!
Seeing it, Johnny, who had fallen from mid-air, was about to hit the ground.
In the off-road vehicle, [Parasite Octopus] felt that the power within the figure he controlled was getting stronger and stronger.
Waving his wings, [Kaz] leaned over and was about to save Johnny.
After all, it would be a bit too funny if the Human Torch really died in the fall. At the same time, it is not in line with the main body’s requirements for earning legendary status.
However, before [Kaz] could wait, he rushed over and caught Johnny who was falling continuously.
As Human Torch kept shouting and urging, a small flame finally appeared on his fingertips.
Looking at the flames ignited from his fingertips, Johnny's face showed a look of excitement. In the next moment, he controlled the cluster of flames at his fingertips to form a fierce flame and wrapped it around his body, controlling the flame generation. The powerful driving force escaped the bad ending of close contact with the hard concrete floor at the critical moment.
"Phew, saved!"
Using the flames on his body to control his body and slowly fall to the ground, Johnny looked at the height that was only less than 11 or 2 meters away from where he hit the ground, and a look of joy flashed in his eyes.
On the other side, on the off-road vehicle, Susan looked at Johnny who successfully completed self-rescue at the last moment. Her heart relaxed slightly, and the originally surging power in her body extinguished as if it had lost its push.
"This is?"
The place where Johnny finally landed was not far from where Susan and Doctor Doom parked their SUV.
Therefore, the Human Torch, who had narrowly escaped death, soon discovered the off-road vehicle in the distance and the two people inside it.
"Susan!"
Theoretically speaking, the face hidden by Doctor Doom's steel mask in the driver's seat should be the most eye-catching existence. However, Johnny's eyes noticed the sight of the off-road vehicle as soon as he saw the driver's seat. The familiar face that I have been searching for.
Looking at Susan who appeared in front of him, Johnny's eyes flashed with excitement. He didn't have time to think about why the [Ultimate Creature] wanted to lie to him, and he didn't notice the reminder in Susan's eyes. He moved his He quickly rushed towards the direction of the off-road vehicle.
chop! chop! chop!
However, before Johnny could get closer, there were several sharp sounds breaking through the air.
Before Johnny's footsteps, a series of hard feathers were inserted into the ground.
"Did I give you permission to leave?"
The wings formed by waving his arms slowly fell down. [Kaz] looked at the emotional Johnny in front of him and said with an indifferent expression.
Looking at the [Ultimate Creature] that appeared in front of him, Johnny's eyes flashed with deep vigilance.
After all, in the previous situation, if he hadn't rekindled the flame on his body at the last moment, he might have turned into a bloody figure at this moment.
Forcing his eyes to look away from Susan on the off-road vehicle, Johnny looked at [Kaz] in front of him and asked: "Why did you lie to me? Susan is obviously still alive."
"Is there a difference?"
Twisting his arms, he instantly transformed from wings to human form. Facing Johnny's question, [Kaz]'s expression did not waver at all: "Anyway, your final outcome will be the same, you will become a part of my body." .”
As [Kazi] finished speaking, the feathers inserted into the ground instantly grew and formed into a giant insect creature covered in heavy carapace, turning its dark eyes to look at Johnny in front of him.
Even the unruly Johnny couldn't help but feel a bit creepy when an insect the size of a hunting dog stared at him.
He turned to Susan in the off-road vehicle and said, "Wait for me."
Immediately afterwards, he immediately controlled the flames on his body to erupt into a terrifying high temperature, and at the same time kept a safe distance from the [Ultimate Creature] on the opposite side.
The previous encounter in mid-air left Johnny with lingering fears, and he was deeply afraid that [Kaz] in front of him would suddenly open his mouth again and spit out a large amount of water to extinguish the flames on his body.
"Do you really think hiding is enough?"
Seeing Johnny's actions, [Katz]'s eyes flashed with an expression of obvious disdain.
Then, with a change of thought from [Kazi], the strange insect on the ground immediately made a piercing chirping sound, moved its densely packed tentacles and rushed towards Johnny on the opposite side at an extremely fast speed.
Facing the huge trap that was approaching rapidly, Johnny's eyes flashed with an obvious look of disgust. He raised his palm to produce a hot flame that fell on the insect's carapace. For an instant, the insect's pitch-black carapace turned red under the high temperature, but soon the insect took off the shell and regrown a new, thicker carapace.
"Sure enough, is this the power of [Ultimate Creature]? Just like before in mid-air, it instantly evolved the power to resist high temperatures."
A look of understanding flashed in Johnny's eyes as he watched the insect evolve to adapt to his attacks in the blink of an eye.
He controlled the flames on his body to produce a huge push and lifted into the sky again. However, considering the previous close encounter with death, this time he did not rise to too high a position, but at a safe distance. He kept his distance from the giant insects on the ground and [Kaz].
"It's useless, everything you have is meaningless."
Looking up at Johnny rising into the air, [Kaz] twisted his neck, and then saw the trap that was crawling rapidly on the ground quickly deforming from its carapace into a pair of wings as thin as cicada wings. Flying in the direction of Johnny.
"You're the one I've been waiting for!"
Facing the giant insects flying towards him, Johnny didn't have any panic look on his face. Instead, he controlled the flames on his body, rising to a temperature of thousands in an instant, and then aimed at the insects in front of him and headed towards them.
boom--
With a dull impact, Johnny's body was hit hard by the insect's huge body, and he gritted his teeth and stretched out his arms wrapped in flames to grab the insect in his arms. .
A sharp chirping sound came from his mouth, and the rising temperature from Johnny's body caused the insect transformed by [Kaz] to struggle violently. Under the threat of death, it kept changing its body. The densely packed tentacles turned into sharp blades, slashing towards Johnny in front of him.
A large number of blades cut through the flames, leaving deep and shallow scars on Johnny's body, but Johnny seemed to have made up his mind and refused to let go of his hands. Therefore, soon, under the burning of high temperature, the movements of the insect that was originally struggling became slower and slower. After a few seconds, a burning smell emerged from the insect in Johnny's hand.
Looking at the charred insect corpse in his hand, Johnny did not relax at all. Instead, he controlled the flames on his body and aimed it at the insect to burn it for a few more seconds. When it was completely charred into a piece of charcoal, his original appearance was indistinguishable. Then he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Do you think the purpose of creating this insect is just for you to kill it?"
However, before Johnny could completely relax, a magnetic voice that made his hair stand on end immediately sounded from behind him.
Hearing the voice from the [Ultimate Creature], Johnny only had time to turn his head back a little before he felt an arm stretch out from behind him and pass through the blazing flames on his body, entering in an instant. into your own body.
An arm integrated into his body. The pain caused by this power at the cellular level was obviously beyond Johnny's imagination. Therefore, the moment the arm entered, a shrill scream came from Johnny's mouth. .
Under the painful stimulation, the flames on Johnny's body immediately surged upwards, trying to destroy the arm in his body through this.
"Johnny!"
Not far away, the battle between Johnny and [Ultimate Creature] was changing rapidly. One moment, Susan was still thankful that Johnny survived, so she tried to remind him to leave quickly. Unexpectedly, in the next moment, [Kaz] had already The appalling eating process started for Johnny.
Looking at the scene in mid-air, [Kaz]'s arms passed through Johnny's body and spread out to merge.
The suppressed power in Susan's body exploded again, and this time the power that exploded was beyond the control of even the [parasitic octopus] behind its neck.
Therefore, in an instant, a thin layer of energy surface emerged from [Kaz]'s body, and directly forcibly cut open the fusion part of [Kaz] and Thunderbolt.
"Johnny, run quickly. You are no match for [Kaz]. If you stay here, you will only die in vain."
Struggling to support her explosive power, Susan resisted the power of the [parasitic octopus] behind her neck and shouted to Johnny in mid-air.
"But... ah... Susan... sister... I will not keep you..."
Facing Susan's shouts, Johnny looked down at his broken body, his expression twisted in pain.
In just a few seconds, [Kaz] integrated part of Human Torch's body into his body.
Therefore, in order to prevent [Kaz] from eating Johnny, Susan had to use this rough method to separate them.
"Listen to me, Johnny, and get out of here."
Gritting her teeth, she controlled the last strength in her body to trap [Kaz]. Faced with Johnny's painful and hoarse answer, Susan's face flashed with a look of pain, but she soon firmed up her expression: "Also, tell Reed and let them be careful. [Kaz]'s target is all beings with extraordinary power, whether it is the Fantastic Four or the Avengers, they are all within his target..."
