Chapter 555 General Corvus Glaive
General Corvus Glaive clutched his Goblin-like face, the dizziness in his brain almost making him vomit.
'What the hell happened?' That was his first thought, but in less than a second he realized he had been hit.
'The touch felt like metal, but it was warm, like some lifeform with powerful physical fitness had hit me with a fist.'
Shaking his head, General Corvus Glaive recovered and sorted out his thoughts. Just as he was about to stand up, a warm liquid splashed over him. A strong metallic smell filled his nostrils, and a disgusting stickiness slipped through his fingers. It was blood!
A lot of blood, like a torrential rain, poured all at once over General Corvus Glaive. Except for the fresh blood cut by the invincible war blade in his hand, his whole body was soaked in blood, looking as if he had changed into a set of clothes.
This smell was very familiar to him, it was from the Outriders he had brought. These single-minded clone soldiers were very useful. As long as the glorious death was engraved in their DNA, these things would step onto the battlefield one after another.
The battle-hardened General Corvus Glaive was very clear about the smell of his subordinates. These things were all cut from the same mold, without the slightest difference, and without any novelty.
General Corvus Glaive raised his head, and he only saw a lifeform he had never seen before. The creature was wearing a uniform that was mainly black and blue with unique red patterns. Only a small amount of skin was exposed, including strong arms and a striking bald head.
Scarlet eyes showed no emotion at all. Those thick and powerful arms were each grabbing the upper and lower body of an Outrider. Sticky fresh blood was constantly flowing out from the cross-section.
Behind that person, there were still dozens of Outriders floating. Some of their bodies were twisted into unimaginable shapes, and the rest, without obvious external injury, were also motionless, as if they had lost consciousness.
"Thump, thump."
Two muffled sounds of landing came. That person released the Outriders in his hands. The sound of landing was like a starting gun. The intact Outriders floating behind him began to rotate their upper bodies to the right and their lower bodies to the left in unison.
Just like wringing a rag, in a chilling sound of bones shattering, the fresh blood of the Outriders was all squeezed out of their bodies. It was obvious that the person in front of him used invisible power to control them. Otherwise, what was squeezed out should not only be fresh blood, but also bone and broken internal organs.
Even the battle-hardened General Corvus Glaive, who had been through countless battlefields before following Thanos, couldn't help but feel fear when he saw this scene.
Grasping the war blade in his hand tightly, this old partner who had accompanied him in countless battle barely gave him a trace of safety. General Corvus Glaive still did not stand up, but maintained his current posture, looking like a beast about to hunt.
"Who are you?" General Corvus Glaive asked. "Never fight a useless battle" was his motto. Even if he had to face death, it must be a death of value, in preparation for a comeback.
"Martian Manhunter."
The person in front of him was Yang Le transformed into Martian Manhunter. He had created clones even before returning to the Movie Universe, just to keep his persona of the plumbers. In addition to Gutrot and Martian Manhunter, there was also a Grey Matter clone on standby for unforeseen needs.
The reason for transforming into Martian Manhunter was because he was too versatile. Apart from flame, there were no obvious weaknesses. And this fatal weakness had been solved by Yang Le's method.
After solving this weakness, Martian Manhunter could even solo all instances in the entire Movie Universe. The Swiss Army Knife among Super Heroes was not just for show.
"Martian... Manhunter?" General Corvus Glaive was briefly stunned. "That planet doesn't have any creatures." (Note 1)
Yang Le just tilted his head at this, neither denying nor agreeing with General Corvus Glaive's words. After all, in the Marvel Universe, Mars indeed had nothing special about it.
"Are you playing games with me?" General Corvus Glaive immediately connected Yang Le's previous words with his current expression, thinking that the other party was humiliating him.
This made him fly into a rage. No longer probing, his slender legs burst out with surprising strength. His whole person shot towards Yang Le in the air like an arrow leaving the bowstring.
"Swish!"
The piercing sound of air being torn came. The peerless blade in his hand split the air and slashed down at Yang Le, who was neither dodging nor avoiding.
The fact that the other party did not react was not beyond General Corvus Glaive's expectations. When Yang Le's punch smashed into his face, he felt through his rich battle experience that the person in front of him definitely possessed amazing defense power.
This kind of opponent might be extremely difficult for others to deal with, but General Corvus Glaive liked this type of enemy the most. Because they possessed powerful defense power, they were extremely arrogant, and they neither dodged nor avoided most attacks. This gave General Corvus Glaive an opportunity.
For example, the robot with a vibranium body two years ago had arrogantly taken a slash from him. General Corvus Glaive still remembered the other party's unbelievable expression, as well as the horrified or anger expressions of his partner.
He liked to savor these things the most.
As General Corvus Glaive expected, the peerless blade passed through the air without any resistance as usual, just like an empty swing that did not hit the target.
"Tap."
General Corvus Glaive landed gently, turned his head to admire the expression that he had seen countless times and never got tired of, but found that Yang Le was also looking at him at this time.
General Corvus Glaive curled the corner of his mouth. The peerless blade was really too sharp, so sharp that even the physical body of the creature in front of him had reacted to being cut open. It didn't matter, he had experienced this scene many times. In at most two seconds, that person would split in half.
"1." General Corvus Glaive gently opened his mouth, leaning on his war blade. His tone was frivolous, as if announcing that Yang Le's death was approaching.
"2 Pu!"
Before he could finish counting to two, Yang Le's fist had already slammed into his face. General Corvus Glaive, who had a confident expression in the previous second, was sent flying out in the next second and smashed into an instrument.
The precise instrument was instantly destroyed, bursting out with countless electric arcs that crackled and climbed onto General Corvus Glaive's body, causing his body to spasm slightly. However, because the voltage was not enough, it could not cause him any damage.
"This... this... this is impossible!" General Corvus Glaive said, while teeth fell out of his mouth. Even his pointed chin seemed more prominent, turning into a shape that looked like it enjoyed playing match-three games.
"Why... why weren't you cut open by me?"
"I dodged it." Yang Le condescendingly looked down at the embarrassed General Corvus Glaive. "Before your blade cut me, I used control of my cells to dodge it."
Note 1: Marvel Comics has published a comic called "Martian Mouse Rider", and it was even made into an anime. It is very likely that it is still many people's childhood memories. Unfortunately, the author has only watched one or two episodes.
