Marvel: The Greatest Hero Era

Whitebeard rubbed his smooth chin, pondering for a moment. The image of the missing Marco popped into his mind, and he felt a little worried.

"Alright, fifty-fifty it is, but you still have to do me a favor."

"Sure! What can I do for you?"

"Find Marco for this old man."

As he spoke, Whitebeard opened the personnel location information on the Alliance Bracelet. On the projection screen, the signal source belonging to Marco was located in the Treant Forest.

Katakuri received Marco's signal from Whitebeard, then nodded and said, "No problem, I'll help you find Marco."

After the two sides agreed on the terms, Whitebeard assigned ten division commanders, including Ace, Diamond Jozu, and Vista, to Katakuri's command.

Whitebeard himself turned and left with the remaining six division commanders.

Seeing everyone scatter, Zhao Chen opened the Guild Master's Ring and located the signal sources of Reinhard and Yugi Muto.

He wanted to see what these two S-rank guys were up to.

"Huh? That's strange, why are both signals underground?"

Zhao Chen looked at the character signals displayed on the projected map and felt a little confused. What the hell was this underground?

Are they at the bottom of the sea?

After thinking it over, Zhao Chen, feeling it was unlikely, dialed the number between the two.

The communication was established quickly, but only Reinhard opened the communicator; Yugi Muto did not. "Great! President, you've finally arrived!"

"What's going on, Reinhard? What are you two up to?"

In the projected image, Reinhard was in a corridor filled with ruins, surrounded by a dark red color scheme, and the environment was extremely disgusting. It felt as if he were inside the body of a giant creature.

Moreover, Zhao Chen also noticed that there was a pretty girl with twin ponytails following Reinhard!

Furthermore, this girl's appearance looked very familiar to Zhao Chen! "Huh? Adventurer, who are you talking to?"

"Let me introduce you, President. This is Ophelia, she claims to be the leader of the GBL cult." Upon hearing Reinhard's introduction, Zhao Chen immediately thought, "Holy crap!"

The fact that Ophelia is here means that the island they're standing on is actually the Celestial Beast!?

If we analyze this in conjunction with the above, then the place where Reinhard and Ophelia are currently located is inside the belly of the Sky Veil Beast, in that forbidden area of ​​the Sky Veil?

Chapter 178: The Story of Avengers: Age of Ultron?

After Reinhard's introduction and explanation.

Zhao Chen finally understood what he and Yugi Muto had been doing all along.

It turns out that several days before the octopus monsters launched their massive invasion, the Eighth Apostle, Longlegs Rost, had already arrived on Socotra Island, which had been merged with the avatar of the [Sky Giant].

However, there was a slight problem with where it landed; it 'accidentally' went underground.

They were pinned down by the colossal beast and unable to escape, while below they were constantly being scorched by the fiery lava.

The tanginess is indescribable; the fate of the teppanyaki was already sealed.

So, Rost, not wanting to be burned to death by the fire, began to try every possible way to escape.

It first used the spatial rift it left behind during its journey to forcibly open the connection with the deep sea of ​​the Demon Realm.

Rost intended to return the way he came, but fate played a trick on him. The spatial passage became unstable when it opened, and then a huge blunder occurred: the entrance back to the deep sea of ​​the Demon Realm was facing upwards, meaning the passage was opened upside down!

The result was that octopus monsters living in the deep sea of ​​the Demon Realm flooded into the Marvel universe.

This led to the battle to defend against the octopus monster disaster in the Gulf of Aden.

Upon realizing that the spatial passage had been opened in the wrong direction, Rost was instantly filled with despair.

But crying won't help. If crying could get him out, Rost would have been crying his eyes out long ago.

Regardless, Rost, who didn't want to turn into a takoyaki (Japanese skewer), tried every possible way to escape from underground.

Just as Rost was racking his brains, Reinhard and Yugi Muto entered its perception range.

Realizing the two men were quite powerful, Rost saw a glimmer of hope for escape. He unleashed his mental energy, intending to control them and help him escape.

Then, things unfolded simply: Reinhard was protected by his mental strength, and no matter how strong the mental attack, it could not shake or invade his mind. Therefore, Reinhard was not controlled by Rost.

As for Yugi Muto, that's a real shame.

Yugi Muto, unable to withstand Rost's mental control immediately, became Rost's puppet.

In order to rescue Yugi Muto, Reinhard chased after him to the Forbidden Land of Heaven without hesitation.

They successfully met and got to know Ophelia in the Forbidden Land of the Heavenly Curtain.

Ophelia's presence here is actually due to the inertia of the plot.

In the world of Arad, Apostle Rost has been killed by adventurers, but Rost's death does not signify the end of this story. The GBL cult atop the Sky Giant Beast did not suffer complete annihilation during Rost's earlier massacre.

Before his death, Judge Marcel initiated the Bloody Ian Plan.

He resurrected himself and the other dead believers, and prepared to take revenge on Lotus.

But by the time Marcel and the others were resurrected, Rost had already been killed by the adventurers.

So, without a goal, Marcel and the other believers all went mad, wandering as undead zombies inside the belly of the Sky Veil Beast. After learning of this, Ophelia, along with the adventurers, prepared to travel to the Sky Veil Forbidden Land to deliver these mad cultists from their slumber.

In the end, the world changed.

The Skybound Beast was transported to the Marvel universe by an unknown force and merged with Socotra Island.

And the Apostle Rost was unexpectedly resurrected. But what's worse is that last time, his second sister threw him onto the back of the Celestial Beast, exposing him to the wind and sun all day. This time, it's even worse; he's directly crushed under the Celestial Beast, about to turn into a takoyaki (Japanese octopus ball).

Back to the topic.

After gaining control of Yugi Muto, Rost summoned him to the lowest level of the Forbidden Land, the closest place to Rost. He wanted Yugi Muto to help him break through the surface rock layer and release him.

And Yugi Muto lived up to expectations, with Obelisk the Tormentor and the sealed Archmage Exodia.

The two giants attacked simultaneously, not only breaking through the surface rock layers, but also supporting the Sky Beast, which had transformed into the island of Socotra!

Seeing his chance to escape was right in front of him, Rost got so excited that he accidentally revealed his apostle aura.

It's not a big deal if it doesn't leak, but once it does, it'll be a shock!

Marcel, who was resurrected and wandering in the forbidden area of ​​the heavens, and other resurrected believers.

Once they caught a whiff of Rost's scent, they were like sharks that had smelled blood.

They all rushed over frantically, determined to take revenge on Rost!

As for Yugi Muto, who helped Rost, he immediately became one of the targets of Marcel and his followers' revenge. Currently, Yugi Muto is simultaneously maintaining the two giants to help Rost escape while also facing attacks from the crazed Marcel and his followers.

If Yugi Muto still had self-awareness, this problem would be a minor one.

But now he's under Rost's mental control, and he can't even unleash half his full power, which is a big problem.

Seeing that Yugi Muto was about to be overwhelmed by Marcel and his men, Rost immediately became furious. If Yugi Muto died, who would help him escape?

Thus, a wide-ranging, indiscriminate mental control fluctuation was released by Rost...

You want to compete on numbers? Fine, let's see if you have more people or if my octopus minions have more!

Therefore, unfortunately, the curious Marco fell victim to it.

This is also why Zhao Chen and his group didn't see a single octopus monster on their journey across the sea.

Because they were all taken to the Forbidden Zone by Rostra.

The Forbidden Land of the Sky Veil is now bustling with activity, as countless octopus monsters of all sizes gather here, while the resurrected Marcel, his zombie followers, and all sorts of summoned creatures engage in a frenzied battle with them.

Right now, Reinhard and Ophelia have noticed the commotion and are on their way to rescue Yugi Muto. Just then, Zhao Chen's communication came through…

Having finally understood the whole story, Zhao Chen gave Reinhard a troubled reply.

After you've rescued Yugi Muto, you can come out. Leave the rest to me.

Zhao Chen, who had just turned off his communication, was about to call out to Qi Yu, who was admiring the scenery, to set off together.

Before he had gone more than a few meters, Zhao Chen saw the two squad leaders with white beards escorting dozens of ragged, surviving islanders as they ran towards him.

The captains of the 15th and 16th Divisions, Fossa and Izo, beamed with joy upon seeing Zhao Chen. "Chairman!" "Chairman!"

"Not bad, you found survivors so quickly."

Izang jogged over, asking somewhat anxiously, "Guild Master, how do we get these people back? This island is teeming with monsters now..." "Ahhhhhh 4.1-One!"

Before the words in Tibetan could be finished, a scream came from the back of the survivors' line. "Damn it, it's those demons!"

Captain Fossa of the 15th Division turned around, immediately grabbed his sword, and rushed over to prepare for the rescue.

Just as a middle-aged woman holding a child was about to die at the hands of the Yaksha, the rescuer Fosa was still several meters away and couldn't even get close enough to shave his way through.

At that moment, a yellow figure flashed into view.

With one punch, the vicious Yaksha lost his upper body.

The scene of blood and flesh flying everywhere immediately terrified the middle-aged woman holding the child, causing her to faint.

Regardless of the commotion caused by this incident among the survivors, Zhao Chen quickly came up with an idea after observing the chaotic crowd.

He opened Tony's communicator and said, "Send a space carrier over here immediately. Position it at my signal source."
