In the underground section of the Helicarrier.
"I am the invincible Thor... It's not over yet..."
Thor lay on the floor, barely able to open his mouth. With his right hand trembling, he slowly raised Mjölnir toward the Giant Venom standing in front of him.
If anyone could see beyond the confines of the Helicarrier, they would witness the skies above it, gathering thick clouds under divine power at an altitude of over ten thousand meters. Thunder and lightning raged within those clouds, and it was as if they were representing the heavens' fury.
Just as the lightning was about to coalesce and strike the Helicarrier, a massive dark foot stomped heavily on Thor's chest in the basement, causing him to grunt in pain. His strong, battered body sank deeper into the floor.
"Almost... just a little more..." Thor weakly whispered, his body trembling as he lost consciousness. His right hand fell, releasing Mjölnir.
The thunderclouds dispersed in an instant, leaving no trace behind while bright sunlight once again bathed the Helicarrier.
The Giant Venom glanced down at Mjölnir. It gripped the handle, and as it exerted force, its feet cracked into the Iron floor, but the hammer remained immovable.
Divine weapons like Mjölnir, which were blessed by the All-Father Odin, cannot be lifted by mere strength alone. Only those deemed worthy can wield it.
After a moment, the Giant Venom gave up on lifting Mjölnir. It extended a finger toward the unconscious Thor, its sharp dark claw like a blade, and slashed down from Thor's neck. The already cracked silver armor split in two, revealing his muscular upper body.
"Venom, what are you doing?" Eddie exclaimed in shock as he looked at this scene.
"He claims to be a god. I'm curious to see what godly flesh and blood taste like," The Giant Venom snarled, its uneven fangs dripping with saliva as it eyed Thor like a meal.
"You can't do this! Wake up, Banner!" Natasha, pale and kneeling, tried desperately to awaken Dr. Banner's consciousness within the Giant Venom.
"I will and I can do this. Just wait your turn, after I eat him, I'll devour you all as well," The Giant Venom said cruelly before he raised its claw as a weapon and ruthlessly plunging it toward Thor's chest.
As the universe's strongest lifeform, it must complete the ritual of god-slaying!
"No!!" Natasha screamed in terror as the Giant Venom's claw was about to kill Thor. At this critical moment, an item flew quickly from the side corridor, blocking the dark claw just in time!
The Giant Venom looked down in anger to see that a round shield with a star emblem had blocked its claw, covering Thor's chest.
To the Giant Venom, even Iron seemed as fragile as paper, yet the shield, after blocking its claw, bore only a slight scratch on its surface!
"Is that..." Natasha and Eddie looked up excitedly to see a young man in a blue tight suit standing at the corridor entrance, clearly having just arrived.
"Captain?"
"I hope I'm not too late?" Steve said with a slight smile on his face.
"An old and alone undying soldier," The Giant Venom growled, its grotesque face snarling as it sprayed hot steam from its nose and mouth, clenching its fists the size of a person.
"Ohh, I may be old but I'm not alone," Steve said, shrugging and pointing above the Giant Venom's head.
"Huh?" The Giant Venom looked up, its pale, cold eyes widening as a small fist rapidly enlarged, carrying a violent whirlwind.
'Boom!!!'
The Giant Venom was struck with unprecedented force, its body slammed into the floor, creating a giant crater as it rolled downward, crashing through several floors before coming to a stop.
"You guys really don't give up, huh," A young voice echoed in the room as Caesar floated in the air, holding the star-emblazoned shield in one hand and Thor's belt in the other, landing lightly on the crater's edge.
"Young master?" Eddie sighed in relief, leaning against the wall. He awkwardly added, "Venom... it..."
"I know," Caesar nodded, tossing the shield back to Steve and laying Thor before Eddie and Natasha.
Turning his back, he faced the abyss-like crater, his tone both young and determined as he continued to speak. "Now that I'm here, everything will be fine."
"That punch... I knew you were hiding your strength," Eddie said with a strained smile on his face after realizing the power of Ceaser's punch.
"That punch..." Natasha was also surprised when she saw Ceasar punching the Giant Venom into the floor. She couldn't fantom how such a small body could hold such outrageous powers.
And for some reason, the small figure in front of her at this moment overlapped with the tall and invincible figure in her memory.
"Caesar, what should we do with that monster?" Steve walked to the edge of the crater with his shield in hand, looking down at the dimly lit underground area below. "Since we are close to the bottom of the Helicarrier, most of the machines and equipment below are there."
"To be honest, I don't really know. The combination of Hulk and Venom is really a headache."
Caesar frowned slightly and lightly clenched his fists. He didn't know whether his underdeveloped body could withstand the high load of fighting.
For the moment, let's give it a try.
After all, in the field of close combat, there is no reason for him to lose against that monster with his Superman Clone!
Thinking of this, Caesar suddenly remembered something, looked at the Thor hammer on the ground, and opened his right hand slightly.
A divine weapon is freely available, so why not use it?
Under the astonished gazes of Steve and the others, Mjölnir floated up and flew into Caesar's hand, his small hand barely gripping the handle.
Electricity crackled from Mjölnir, continuously flowing into Caesar's body.
"This might work, with the power of thunder," Caesar thought, his eyes widening in surprise as his blue eyes gleamed with electric light.
He could convert the energy into his own strength. With Mjölnir, it was like having a portable power bank.
"Captain, take them to the main control hall. I'll lure the Giant Venom away," Caesar said before floating with Mjölnir in hand, preparing to descend into the crater.
"Caesar, take this too!" Steve tossed his shield before Ceasar could descend into the crater he created and Caesar didn't hesitate, catching it and strapping it to his left arm, fully armed as he entered the crater.
Supporting each other, Eddie and Natasha followed Steve, who carried the still-unconscious Thor.
"Hurry, the fight's about to start. This area will likely be compromised. We need to get to the main control hall. Who knows what the situation is there?" Steve urged.
As Eddie passed the crater, he worriedly asked, "Captain, can the young master handle that monster alone?"
"I don't know, but unfortunately, we're just burdens here," Steve sighed, leading the way. "But I believe in him."
"So do I," Natasha agreed, nodding.
Both of them had seen something secretive in Caesar's demeanor.
