Chapter 494: The Wrath of the Giant, the Power of Thunder
The Hulk stood in the middle of the arena, breathing heavily, his chest rising and falling, his breath filled with strong anger. His nostrils slightly opened, his eyes full of fighting intent under his thick eyebrows stared at his opponent, his face full of anger and disdain. Every breath he took seemed to carry an irrepressible violent force, his thick muscles glowed with an oily luster under the light, and he looked like a volcano that could erupt at any time.
Beta Ray Bill stood on the other side of the field, holding the Stormbreaker tightly in his hand, his eyes calm and resolute. His fighting posture was rigorous, his legs slightly bent, his center of gravity lowered, ready to attack at any time. His strange horse mask looked ferocious under the light, his eyes as sharp as an eagle, watching every subtle movement of the Hulk. Thor's hammer was gently swung in his hand, making a low roar, as if foreshadowing the coming power of thunder.
"Bang!" Along with the battle horn of the arena, a loud noise exploded in the air. The Hulk took the first step abruptly, and the stone bricks under his feet cracked instantly. He roared suddenly, and his anger exploded instantly, rushing towards Beta Ray Bill like an out-of-control beast, at an astonishing speed.
A cold light flashed in Beta Ray Bill's eyes. He did not retreat, but immediately rushed forward. Stormbreaker drew a swift arc in the air, pointing directly at the Hulk's chest. The hammer carried the power of thunder, and a burning smell instantly filled the air.
The Hulk didn't dodge at all. He punched out and smashed the warhammer hard. The two powerful forces collided fiercely in the air. "Boom!" A loud noise echoed throughout the arena. The air was instantly distorted. A strong shock wave spread out from the two people as the center. The surrounding bricks were lifted up and debris flew.
The Hulk's fist collided with Beta Ray Bill's hammer, making a harsh metal friction sound. The two were equally strong and in a stalemate, with sparks constantly bursting out from the intersection of the fist and the hammer. Beta Ray Bill gritted his teeth and pressed down the hammer hard, trying to force the Hulk back, but the Hulk showed no weakness, the veins on his face bulged, his muscles were tense, and his strength seemed endless.
"Hah!" Beta Ray Bill roared, and suddenly exerted force, smashing down with the violent force of thunder, forcing the Hulk back a few steps. The bricks under the Hulk's feet were crushed by his powerful force, but he did not lose his balance, but became even more angry. He roared, suddenly raised his hands, and punched Beta Ray Bill's head with unstoppable force.
Beta Ray Bill reacted quickly, raising his hammer to block the blow. "Bang!" There was another loud noise, and the hammer and fist collided again. The confrontation of power was extremely fierce. Beta Ray Bill's legs slid back suddenly, leaving two deep marks on the stone bricks under his feet, but he still stood firmly.
When the Hulk's attack missed, Beta Ray Bill quickly counterattacked. His hammer swung upward from below, with the force of thunder, and directly hit the Hulk's chin. The Hulk had no time to dodge, and the hammer hit him in the chin. With a dull "bang", the Hulk's body leaned back slightly, but he did not fall down.
The Hulk was even more furious after receiving this blow. He growled and suddenly raised his foot to kick Beta Ray Bill in the chest. Beta Ray Bill quickly dodged sideways, but the Hulk was incredibly fast, and the huge foot still grazed his chest with heavy force. Beta Ray Bill's body shook violently and he almost lost his balance, but he forced himself to stabilize and quickly adjusted his posture.
The tempo of the battle was getting faster and faster, and neither side had any intention of giving in. Every swing of Beta Ray Bill's hammer carried the power of thunder, and every punch of the Hulk was like a boulder smashing down, and the air was filled with dull vibrations. The fists and hammers kept colliding, the fighting scene was extremely fierce, and the contest of strength and speed entered a white-hot stage.
The Hulk suddenly roared, swung his hands, and smashed down with both fists like two huge hammers. Beta Ray Bill quickly raised his hammer to block. With a "bang", his body was pressed down by the powerful impact, and his legs almost sank into the ground, but he still blocked the blow steadily.
The first phase of the battle temporarily entered a stalemate, with both sides looking for each other's flaws and waiting for the next round of attack.
Beta Ray Bill's eyes flashed with a hint of calm determination. He gripped Stormbreaker tightly, and the thunder power on the hammer began to surge in his hand, as if ready to release its true power. He took a deep breath, and said in a firm and low voice: "You are a strong opponent, Hulk, but I will not let this battle drag on."
As the words fell, Beta Ray Bill raised Stormbreaker with both hands, and thunder roared in the sky, as if the entire sky of Sakaar was responding to his call. Violent thunder fell from the sky and directly hit his hammer, lightning flashed everywhere, and the power of thunder flowed through his arms and into his body. Beta Ray Bill's eyes flashed with dazzling lightning, and his body was completely wrapped in the power of thunder, and the whole person was like the descending of Thor.
"Judgment of Thunder!" Beta Ray Bill roared, and swung Stormbreaker violently, accompanied by endless thunder and lightning, straight towards the Hulk.
The lightning tore through the air and struck the Hulk with irresistible force. The Hulk roared and pounded his fists on the ground, shattering the bricks under his feet. His anger reached its peak at this moment, his eyes were bloodshot, and his muscles were so tense that they seemed to burst at any time. His voice came out of his throat intermittently: "Hulk... not... afraid..."
The lightning struck the Hulk fiercely, and the lightning flashed everywhere. The violent power instantly enveloped him. The Hulk's body trembled for a moment in the lightning, and then a roar resounded throughout the arena. He swung his hands outward suddenly, and the electric current covering his body was forcibly shattered. The powerful electric current exploded around him, and stones flew everywhere.
"Roar!" The Hulk roared, shaking the earth. He slammed his fists into the ground again, sending violent shockwaves. The ground cracked and gravel scattered. He could no longer suppress his anger. He clasped his hands together, making a deafening clapping sound. A powerful sound wave rushed straight to Beta Ray Bill.
Beta Ray Bill quickly used his war hammer to block in front of him, but the impact of the sound wave still knocked him back several steps, leaving a long mark on the ground under his feet. His eyes fixed, knowing that he could not let the Hulk continue to accumulate anger.
"That's enough!" Beta Ray Bill rushed forward again, Stormbreaker raised high, the power of thunder gathered again, and his hammer swept out like lightning, aiming directly at the Hulk's chest. The lightning made a harsh sound in the air and went straight to the Hulk.
The Hulk was not afraid, roaring and rushing towards the hammer. His fists were filled with endless power and smashed into Beta Ray Bill's weapon. The fist and the hammer collided in the air, and with a loud "bang!", violent lightning and terrifying power erupted at the same time, the air was torn apart, and the surrounding bricks were instantly turned into powder.
Beta Ray Bill took advantage of the moment of thunder and lightning to quickly retreat, swinging his hammer to gather the power of thunder again. His voice was low and full of fighting spirit: "You are very strong, but my power... is the power of Thor!"
As his voice fell, thunder rumbled in the sky again, and Beta Ray Bill's hammer spun in his hand, the power of thunder seemed to tear the space apart. He suddenly jumped up and smashed the Hulk with the hammer of thunder.
"Hulk... Angry!" The Hulk roared, and kicked the ground with his legs. The powerful explosive force made him jump high and meet Beta Ray Bill's attack. His fists crossed in the air, and a heavy punch hit Beta Ray Bill's body with terrifying force.
The two's attacks collided violently in the air. "Bang!" Thunder and anger intertwined, making a deafening roar, and the powerful shock wave knocked the two back at the same time. Beta Ray Bill stabilized his body in the air, while the Hulk fell heavily to the ground, and the ground beneath his feet instantly shattered and dust flew.
The battle entered a white-hot stage, and both sides no longer held back, and madly released their respective powers. Every swing of Beta Ray Bill's hammer was accompanied by the fury of thunder, while the Hulk's fist was as hard as steel, and every blow seemed to shake the entire arena.
"Thunder...can't stop...Hulk!" The Hulk roared intermittently and continued to swing his fists wildly. But Beta Ray Bill remained calm, and the hammer in his hand swept the Hulk like a storm, trying to break the stalemate.
The two men continued to collide and the fight became more and more intense. The clash of power had reached its limit. Everything around them collapsed in their fight. The arena seemed unable to withstand such a destructive battle.
The members of the Guardians of the Galaxy stood in the stands, watching the fight between the Hulk and Beta Ray Bill, all of them were stunned. Every collision of fists and explosion of thunder brought a violent wave of air, as if the stands under their feet were shaking. Drax was full of excitement, his fists clenched, and he almost jumped into the field to compete with the two fighting giants.
"Mamma mia, this is what fighting is!" Peter Quill couldn't help but exclaim, but his voice still carried that relaxed sense of ease, with the corners of his mouth raised, as if he didn't care about anything.
Gamora gave him a cold glance, "Peter, I guess you don't really want to go down and play with them?"
Quill shrugged and said innocently, "Oh, no, no, I'm not the kind of person who seeks trouble, Gamora. But...if I go down, I will definitely fight better than both of them. You know, I'm a graceful master of combat."
Rocket Raccoon grinned at the side, having almost finished his drink. He turned to look at Quill and teased, "Oh, grace? The kind of grace you show when you wave your gun around and then roll around on the bed? Or the kind you showed when Gamora kicked you to the ground?"
"Hey!" Quill immediately retorted in dissatisfaction, "It was just an accident!"
"Accident?" Gamora raised a barely perceptible smile and said softly, "My performance that night was quite ungentlemanly. I still remember it clearly."
Kui's face suddenly turned red, and he immediately waved his hand to change the subject: "Okay, okay! Let's not talk about that. Let's just watch this epic battle."
Drax's eyes were full of fighting spirit. He stared at the arena intently, and said in a low voice full of desire: "The strength of these two men is simply unparalleled. If I go down, I will definitely be able to fight more happily."
Rocket immediately rolled his eyes and patted Drax on the shoulder, "Dude, can you start by blowing your own head off? You'll just be a ball for them to hit."
"I'm Groot." Groot responded softly from the side, as if he was also very interested in this battle, although his expression still looked very calm.
Peter Quill spoke again, with his usual cynicism and endless confidence: "Come on, guys, we are the Guardians of the Galaxy. Although they fought brilliantly, to be honest - if I go down, the Hulk might be fascinated by my handsomeness, and Beta Ray Bill might be so jealous that he would leave the stage."
Rocket laughed, "Your handsomeness will only make them die of laughter in three seconds at most."
Before Peter could retort, Mantis suddenly leaned over, her face full of innocent curiosity, "Quill, when you say 'handsome', do you mean something like the 'demeanor' you mentioned? The kind that makes Gamora unhappy?"
"Mantis!" Quill's eyes widened, his voice filled with helplessness and shame. "Don't mention this again! Seriously!"
Gamora raised her eyebrows, a hint of teasing flashed in her eyes, "Perhaps Mantis is right, Peter?"
Peter smiled awkwardly and looked up at the sky, as if looking for an opportunity to change the subject. Suddenly, the air wave in the center of the venue erupted again, and the strong shock wave seemed to tear the entire arena apart. Peter couldn't help swallowing his saliva and muttered to himself: "Mamma Mia... these two people are so scary..."
"Yeah," Rocket grinned, revealing a playful expression, "but if you go down there, I bet you'll be beaten into a pulp in two seconds."
Quill rolled his eyes, "Oh, thank you so much for the encouragement, Rocket. You're such a great teammate."
"I'm Groot." Groot echoed, seemingly expressing his sympathy for Quill.
Mantis suddenly whispered, "Quil, perhaps you can use your 'grace' to mediate their fight?"
Peter immediately covered his face helplessly, and a muffled voice came from his palms: "No, please, don't mention it again..."
Rocket laughed and continued, "Oh, guys, it seems our Star-Lord does have quite a bit of 'grace'!"
