The Long-Lost "Little Bug" Nickname
"A person should be looked at with new eyes after three days' absence. My current strength is incomparable to what I was before!" Robet smiled confidently, looking towards the direction of the frost mist, and said, "If you don't believe me, you can watch from here. If I can't beat them, it's not too late for you to make your move, is it?"
Robet understood that Martian Manhunter was about to make a move. To prevent Martian Manhunter from seizing the Frost Giant and their group of enemies, Robet spoke first, asking Martian Manhunter to help hold the line. This way, even if Martian Manhunter wanted to make a move, he would have to wait until Robet showed signs of defeat in the battle, unless Martian Manhunter wanted to strain his relationship with Robet again.
"Alright!" Upon hearing Robet's words, Martian Manhunter paused for a moment, then nodded in agreement. In any case, if Robet couldn't defeat the Frost Giant later, Martian Manhunter could step in to help in time.
"Hmm?" Just as Robet was about to make a move, he sensed a familiar aura again, and at the same time, the phone that Robet had placed in his wrist space rang.
Robet had no idea how Jor-El had managed to do it; in any case, the wrist space hadn't completely blocked the phone's signal. However, Robet didn't intend to take the phone out at this moment, because Robet already knew who was calling...
Yes, it was Tony Stark who made the call. After Laufey destroyed two of his Mecha, he was still trying to figure out what was going on in the Frost Mist when the Frost Mist began to spread across the globe. At the same time, the global climate change made Tony Stark unable to sit still any longer.
Compared to other crises, the one affecting the entire Earth's climate and environment is undoubtedly more serious. In fact, it could be said that this crisis is even more dangerous than the invasion of some Demon King -level powerhouses!
The influence of a Demon King -level powerhouse is limited to a small area. Unless that Demon King has already begun its path to rule the Earth, other entities outside the area where the Demon King Demon King will not actually have much awareness of its arrival.
But Laufey and the Frost Giant are different now. The impact they've caused is global. The number of people dying from the abnormal temperature is far greater than the number killed by the Demon King before. This is because some people have never experienced such extreme cold, and some haven't even experienced winter. Faced with such a sudden drop in temperature, the human body simply cannot withstand it...
Therefore, Tony Stark certainly couldn't sit idly by any longer. Even knowing that the Frost Mist was dangerous, Tony Stark still rushed over, deploying all his Mecha while contacting Robet.
But to Tony Stark's surprise, before he could even get through to Robet, Robet's voice already echoed in his mind, "I know what happened. You wait downstairs; my companions are there, along with an ice box. That ice box must be what they came here for. You and my companions must protect that ice box!"
"Huh? Okay!" Tony Stark instinctively wanted to ask if he needed his Iron Man army to help, but Tony Stark quickly thought of Robet's destructive power. He felt that if his Iron Man army went there, they would probably just be cannon fodder, not even qualified to watch, let alone help.
Therefore, Tony Stark readily left the sky and headed towards the ground. Of course, he also left behind one of his Mecha to try and observe the battle on Robet's side from a distance...
Robet had no intention of wasting any more words with Tony Stark. To prevent Martian Manhunter from stealing the monster, Robet charged directly towards the cloud of frost mist, simultaneously unleashing a Kamehameha Wave!
Robet immediately unleashed a powerful attack, determined to deal with the weather-affecting frost fog first!
"I haven't found any powerful individuals... Hmm?!" At the same time, within the frost and mist, Laufey hadn't detected any extraordinary powers on Earth. After all, detection abilities weren't Laufey's forte. His eyesight was decent, but it was impossible for him to see through the Earth like Clark. Therefore, after observing for a while, Laufey didn't find anything unusual. But just as he opened his mouth, Laufey sensed a crisis approaching!
"Damn it!" Without any hesitation, even though she didn't understand what the crisis was all about, Laufey immediately chose to retaliate. After all, Laufey could handle many attacks, but that didn't mean her people could handle such an attack!
With a "whoosh!", a beam of icy blue light burst forth from the frost mist, locking onto the Kamehameha Wave. At first, the icy blue light seemed to freeze the Kamehameha Wave, but soon, the powerful destructive force and heat within the Kamehameha Wave annihilated the frozen power!
The two different energies collided outside the frost and mist, showing no sign of a victor in the short term, which surprised Martian Manhunter and the Mecha left behind by Tony Stark, who were watching from a distance.
Martian Manhunter was astonished to find that Robet's current strength seemed many times greater than before. In fact, Robet hadn't even used the seemingly uncontrollable transformation he'd employed in their previous battle. Martian Manhunter now understood why Robet had been so confident before...
Tony Stark, observing the battle from afar through his Mecha, was astonished that even Robet's destructive power hadn't destroyed the icy blue light. While he had witnessed the power of that light before, Tony Stark had also seen the destructive force of Robet's Kamehameha Wave. Every time Robet used that attack, Tony Stark worried that Robet might blow up the entire Earth...
"Iron Man?" Just as Tony Stark was watching the battle with Robet's side and heading to the ground, he heard Peter Parker's surprised voice. Both Peter Parker and Susan Storm had heard of this household name superhero, so they were surprised to see Tony Stark there.
"You're all Saiyan partners? Is this the Ice Box? The Saiyan sent me to help." Tony Stark nodded at Peter Parker and the others, but also noticed Pietro and Lorna lying unconscious nearby, and he couldn't help but frown.
Tony Stark initially thought that Peter Parker and his group of kids didn't seem particularly impressive, but when he noticed Pietro and Lorna floating in mid-air, Tony Stark realized that the people Robet called his companions were definitely not ordinary people!
"You're here to help? Are the enemies here?" Peter Parker's eyes lit up as he looked around and asked.
"No, Robet's battle has only just begun..." Tony Stark paused for a moment, then had a Mecha display a scene of battle taking place high in the sky.
Tony Stark Tony Stark couldn't figure out what was happening inside the frost and mist, but he had no difficulty seeing what was happening outside of it.
"There's such a method? Now we don't need to wait foolishly anymore..." Johnny Storm's eyes lit up when he saw the image in front of him, and he said with some admiration.
"It doesn't seem like we have the upper hand. What exactly is that person in the frost and mist? It should be a person, right? It can't be some alien spaceship, can it?" Tony Stark muttered to himself as he surveyed the battle.
Actually, compared to the possibility of biological beings within the frost and mist, Tony Stark would rather it contained a spaceship. At least that would represent technological power, which might be of some help to him.
However, Tony Stark knew this possibility was low. It couldn't possibly be that the ice box next to him was some kind of spaceship power source, could it? Jarvis had already scanned the Casket of Ancient Winters and concluded that it was completely unreadable...
Meanwhile, high in the sky, while Robet and Laufey's energy blasts were locked in a stalemate, Robet unhesitatingly activated his Great Ape Power: Wrath transformation. In an instant, the previously stalemate between the Kamehameha Wave and the icy blue light was resolved. The Kamehameha Wave pierced deep into the frost mist, causing it to explode and reveal Laufey and a group of Frost Giant that flew out.
If Laufey hadn't reacted quickly enough to throw his people out, they would have been killed instantly by the Kamehameha Wave.
Fortunately, the frost mist was not just ordinary mist; it negated a large amount of the damage from the Kamehameha Wave. This was because it was a powerful force that the Frost Giant had gathered when they smuggled themselves through the spatial passage. Otherwise, the frost mist would not have had such a significant impact on Earth's climate.
"You bear the aura of the Casket of Ancient Winters!" As the frost mist dissipated, Laufey absorbed the remaining mist into his body, revealing his true form as his figure grew larger. He stared intently at Robet and said in a deep voice, "You stole the treasure of our Frost Giant race!"
"So you came for that ice box after all!" Robet nodded knowingly, then, sensing that the surrounding temperature had stopped dropping, he looked at Laufey and asked, "So, this is why you came to Earth and have been so disruptive to the Earth's climate?"
"Good! Hand over the Casket of Ancient Winters, and we can leave Earth!" Laufey gave Robet a deep look, a hint of apprehension flashing in his eyes, and said in a deep voice.
Laufey didn't sense any divine power from Robet at this moment, but the power Robet had previously unleashed undoubtedly made Laufey somewhat cautious. After all, he hadn't figured out Robet's trump card yet. At the same time, he noticed another Mecha and a phantom-like figure in the distance, which made Laufey reluctant to fight. He just wanted to retrieve the Casket of Ancient Winters first...
In fact, if Laufey hadn't chosen to wander around Earth in the first place, searching for any supernatural powers that might exist there, perhaps Martian Manhunter wouldn't have come at all, Laufey would only have needed to deal with Robet next to the Frost Casket.
"Heh, you came to Earth and caused such a serious impact, and you not only want to leave, but also want to take the Casket of Ancient Winters back with you? You're such an ugly thing, how can you think so beautifully?" At this moment, Robet couldn't help but laugh when he heard Laufey's words. In Robet's opinion, Laufey was being far too presumptuous.
With a "whoosh!" sound, just as Robet finished speaking, Laufey made a sudden move. His massive figure transformed into a blur as he rushed directly towards Robet. It seemed that he hadn't reached an agreement with Robet and had launched a sneak attack instead!
However, now that the battle had begun, Robet, even while still talking, wouldn't be distracted. The instant Laufey disappeared, Robet had already keenly sensed it and seen through Laufey's attack, launching a counterattack!
With a loud "thud," Robet dodged Laufey's claws and punched Laufey in the chest, sending Laufey flying backward. At the same time, it seemed as if a shard of ice fell from Laufey's chest...
However, the scene looked rather strange at this moment, because Robet was already very tall, but he still looked small when facing Laufey, the King of the Frost Giants. Laufey was a full thirty meters tall at this time. It can only be said that this battle seemed a bit unfair.
Of course, height isn't the only measure of strength. Although Robet was much smaller than Laufey at this moment, his punch still sent Laufey flying. However, this kind of fight made Robet somewhat uncomfortable...
With a "whoosh!" sound, as Laufey was knocked back, a cold current burst forth from his body. Unlike the previous frost mist, it did not affect such a large area, but it transformed a small area into Laufey's domain!
"Go and find the Frost Casket of Ancient Winters Casket of Ancient Winters! I've already sensed its location; it's on the ground in that direction!" After releasing his domain, Laufey didn't rush to attack. Instead, he spoke in a deep voice to the surrounding Frost Giant.
"Yes!" The Frost Giant had absolute trust in Laufey, and they all headed in the direction Laufey pointed. Martian Manhunter frowned, glanced at Robet, then at Tony Stark and Peter Parker below, and ultimately did not choose to intervene.
"Now it's your turn, you little bug, you've angered me!" Seeing that his subordinate hadn't been stopped, Laufey looked at Robet with a sinister grin and said coldly, "That punch felt good, didn't it?!"
"Little bug? It's been a long time since I've heard that!" Upon hearing Laufey's words, Robet's lips curled into a sinister grin. His face began to change rapidly, and his body suddenly swelled, transforming into a different species in a way that Laufey and the nearby Martian Manhunter found incomprehensible...
It's late, this chapter counts as yesterday's.
