Chapter 123: Father God! I’m Here To Help You!
A patch of green.
Under the dim sky.
【Entropy Annihilation Lord Experience Points+14】
【Entropy Annihilation Lord Experience Points+18】
【Entropy Annihilation Lord Experience Points+22】
Warnings from the system kept ringing in Ian’s ears.
But this did not affect his Super Hearing.
After being pressed against his belly by Doomsday’s “hug-and-kill” attack, he seriously suspected that Doomsday wanted to stuff him into its belly to be a mate for the one inside.
His mind was sharp.
However, Ian had no evidence.
He only knew that Doomsday was acting strangely now. Doomsday was a life without intelligence, so it couldn’t possibly make such a cry for help, meaning the cry for help definitely belonged to another being.
“Is it pregnant? Do men get pregnant in parallel universes? A world full of dad-moms?” Ian could hear the voice even more clearly.
“Kryptonian! Kryptonian! You must fulfill your mission! Protect your god!”
There was indeed a voice calling out to the Kryptonian.
Ian looked up.
He remembered that Krypton did have gods.
However, the Kryptonians on Earth didn’t seem to care about this god. His own father seemed unable to hear the other’s call and was busy saving the military planes—above Metropolis, Superman seemed unable to escape his fate. Heaven knows how many military fighter jets he had already saved.
Those advanced fighter jets and helicopters, said to have cost billions, were utterly meaningless in the face of a disaster like Doomsday, regardless of whether their paper data was falsified.
They were uniformly no different from being made of paper. Even before reaching the accident scene, the Fel Energy that had polluted the sky had already rendered all the electronic instruments of these planes defunct.
The planes crashed.
No one else needed to do anything.
The pilots, who were also affected by the substances released by the Fel Energy, chose their own direction for eternal sleep. Superman, a blur in the sky, once again saved countless military families.
“Don’t ignore your god! Don’t be a traitor!” The voice grew more anxious, as if it felt ignored and then became enraged.
“The god of hammers! Metropolis can only have one god, and that is my Father God, who will undoubtedly ascend to omnipotence in the future!” Ian didn’t even want to be an evil god anymore.
He only wanted to emulate his father.
To be the child of a god.
Who would want to start their own business? Ian loudly reminded Superman in the sky to work harder. He believed that with Superman’s Super Hearing, he would definitely hear the encouragement from his son.
“Hmm, I heard this kid talking about Father God? So he’s also an Earth god race?” In the sky, Green Lantern had been watching the spinning maniac on the ground.
Or perhaps he should be called a crazy range hood now.
The sound of inhalation was so immense, even louder than the roar of airplane engines, that a large area of cold air, grass, and stones were being drawn towards the boy’s mouth.
“Please don’t ask me questions like this, thank you, it has nothing to do with me.” Having been doubted by Lois before, Wonder Woman appeared exceptionally cautious.
She did not reply.
However, Ian shouted to the sky.
“Whether I am a god race depends on whether my Father God is capable enough! He clearly has the appearance of a God!” Since the last time he met Lucifer, Ian had actually been extremely envious.
Angry and trembling.
When will Father stand up?
His father is more capable than my father.
He disliked this feeling of losing in a battle of fathers.
“???????”
Superman, who was saving planes, heard these words, and his hand holding a plane trembled slightly. He didn’t know what he had done to be praised so highly by Ian.
“I am the god! You idiotic kid! Get lost! Don’t interfere with my resurrection!” The voice from inside Doomsday’s belly could clearly hear the commotion outside.
His rudeness bothered Ian greatly.
“You fake god! Don’t invert the heavens and earth! I’m not the idiot… Damn it, you’re cursing me so crudely, I’ll reveal your true form, you ghost!”
“And then help me cultivate!” Ian clung to Doomsday’s belly like a koala, his cheeks puffed out like an inflated pufferfish, a few levels above a hamster.
He inhaled even more forcefully, drawing energy from Doomsday’s body as if he were drinking bubble tea. Countless invisible energies were sucked into his mouth like soul dust.

【Entropy Annihilation Lord Experience Points+34】
Perhaps the source of these experience points was not the ferocious Doomsday, but the power of a certain soul. Doomsday’s roars originated from some factor within its body.
When Doomsday roared.
That voice also roared within Doomsday’s body.
“You have no idea what you’re doing! Stop! Only I can save you!” The voice, which called itself a god, continued to roar, its tone clearly becoming more angry and panicked.
“Hilarious, you can’t even save yourself, yet you claim to save us? How can someone be such a braggart? You might as well say that if you don’t worship me, my true destiny is lost.”
“That way, even if things go wrong, people will at least always remember your style.” Ian certainly wouldn’t miss such an opportunity to level up. His mouth was even directly pressed against Doomsday’s skin.
Old meat.
Can’t bite through.
The taste after a couple of bites was like American curry with fish mint, but this did not prevent Ian from gaining experience.
【Entropy Annihilation Lord Experience Points+44】
【Entropy Annihilation Lord Experience Points+42】
【Entropy Annihilation Lord Experience Points+48】
…
The frantic sucking.
Naturally led to a super fast leveling speed.
After leveling up six times consecutively before, Ian once again gained an increase in his profession level. The profession he had awakened not long ago today had already become his highest-level profession.
【Entropy Annihilation Lord LV9 (1/2560)】
【Strength: 250-270】
【Constitution: 290-310】
【Intelligence: 19.0-20.1】
【Spirit: 94-101】
…
Three-digit strength and constitution had already given Ian a physical level far exceeding ordinary superheroes. If he had the opportunity, he could also go and save derailed trains or repair broken cruise ships.
Not for any other reason.
Just to hear a few exclamations of “Whoa” or “Motherfucker.”
They were the best praise in this world.
As for being able to reach such a high level of profession and physical quality in such a short time, Ian knew that it was almost entirely due to his own efforts.
“I can actually work even harder!” Ian felt that his newly acquired digestive organ was clearly beginning to have difficulty digesting the energy constantly pouring into his body.
He was not flustered.
With a counter-attack, he used seven skill points and threw them at the same skill, learning the original beginner skill and raising it to advanced with his superb comprehension.
【Ultimate Hunger lv3: Upon activation, enter the 【Ultimate Hunger】 state, greatly increasing experience gain efficiency and enhancing the body’s ability to contain and digest energy for a duration of three hours.
This skill, at its highest level, will grant you a mythical form after consuming maximum energy.】
This is a skill with benefits.
It can be used once a day and can be leveled up to five times. Like most profession skills, each additional level requires more skill points.
Ian believed in “no pain, no gain.”
He was determined to suck out and digest whatever was inside Doomsday today—of course, learning this skill and spending points was also due to Ian’s curiosity about the so-called mythical form.
Mythical, the word itself sounded very powerful.
According to the system’s usual behavior.
It would definitely not disappoint Ian.
In the skill trees of other professions, Ian had only seen such descriptions in the 【Savage Tyrant】 skill tree, within the 【Void God】 profession skills.
It was clear that the mythical form was a unique attribute of such ultimate professions.
“Let me level up another twenty or thirty times! Please!” Ian once again engaged in a frenzied mutual farming with Doomsday. His absorption of a certain energy within Doomsday did not affect Doomsday’s evolution.
As he continued to devour.
Doomsday, which had wanted to crush him, began to mutate under the burning of his divine power within its body. Its body, which had been on the verge of collapse, began to self-repair, and a bio-armor with a metallic sheen slowly grew out, covering its entire body like a living suit of armor.
It directly resisted Ian’s divine power burning—this was Krypton’s most powerful biological weapon, capable of evolving its abilities with the environment and battle.
Divine Power Defense Bio-Armor.
Seeing this scene.
Wonder Woman in the sky also felt the restraining power of this armor against her.
“This is not a good thing.”
Wonder Woman frowned, her expression solemn, but she didn’t know what to do. After all, if she intervened, it would only accelerate Doomsday’s frantic evolution.
It was equivalent to increasing the BOSS’s level. One should know that not everyone could engage in honest mutual farming with Doomsday like the little boy below, competing to see who could level up faster.
“That boy got a bit stronger just now… but Doomsday’s strengthening speed is clearly superior.” Cyborg had been monitoring the two suspected life forms below.
His tone carried a hint of worry.
“This boy looks like a cosmic range hood… Sigh, I can’t help him much now. My imagination has also met its match; I can’t deal with a creature beyond my imagination.” Green Lantern rotated his neck, his gaze following the two figures rolling on the ground.
Cyborg hesitated to speak.
But ultimately said nothing.
He changed the subject.
“Didn’t Superman say he was going to find Batman? Why does he still have the mood to save planes?” Cyborg looked into the distance. Superman had already saved the eighty-first plane that had been sent to scout and was unwilling to give up.
“Perhaps Superman doesn’t want to face us, or the kid below.” Wonder Woman seemed to see through everything, but this was just her teasing.
“We need the damn Kryptonite!”
Green Lantern felt frustrated by his inability to manifest a solution. Although the kid below had disrespected him, he still felt that the boy possessed the willpower and courage needed by the Green Lantern Corps.
Due to Doomsday’s characteristics.
The three veteran members of the Justice League were at a loss for how to handle the current situation.
And at this moment.
“If you could use your brains a little…”
A shadow descended from the sky.
The Batmobile broke through the clouds.
A low voice emanated from the suddenly appearing Batmobile. The Batmobile performed a beautiful drift and stopped in mid-air.
“You should have thought of facilities to imprison this kind of monster. Luthor wouldn’t have prepared any countermeasures.” Bruce dangled himself from the car door and spoke to everyone.
His black cape flapped in the strong wind.
His tone was as unfriendly as ever.
“Bruce, this guy’s genes are problematic. Ordinary Kryptonite won’t work.” Wonder Woman sighed, about to explain that Doomsday below came from another world.
However, she saw Batman reveal a look she was familiar with.
That look of knowing everything.
So Wonder Woman chose to shut up.
“I already know what happened, so there’s no need to explain. For now, let’s solve the problem.” Batman said, reaching into the car and taking out a spear emitting a faint blue light.
“I didn’t intend to explain further anyway.”
Wonder Woman hadn’t expected that even though she hadn’t spoken, Batman would still put on a show.
“What is this?” Cyborg stared at the spear in Batman’s hand. The tip of the spear had a crystal he didn’t recognize. He asked in confusion, simultaneously activating his scanner for analysis.
The analysis was fast.
However, before the results could be obtained.
Batman glanced at him sideways.
“If you weren’t waiting here for someone else to think for you, and had instead hacked into Luthor’s base system earlier, I don’t think you would be asking me such a foolish question.”
Batman sharply chided Cyborg without any politeness.
After speaking.
He himself frowned, a hint of suspicion and confusion flashing in his eyes—as a master of emotional control on normal days, Batman’s emotions shouldn’t fluctuate so greatly.
But he was indeed very annoyed now.
“Uh… sorry, I was planning to do that, but I forgot while watching.” Cyborg’s face instantly turned red, and he chuckled sheepishly without refuting.
Batman held the spear in his hand.
His gaze swept towards Ian, who was still fighting Doomsday in the distance.
“Catch this, kid.”
He snorted coldly, tensing the muscles in his arm, and threw the spear with force! The blue spear immediately cut through the air, whistling as it flew straight towards Ian.
“Your strength?”
Wonder Woman immediately sensed something was wrong.
Batman did not reply.
He simply watched the two figures below.
Ian happened to look up and saw the blue spear flying towards him—a gift from his rich Uncle Batman. An obedient little boy would naturally not refuse or feign refusal.
He grabbed the spear.
And unhesitatingly put it in his mouth.
“Crack.”
He instinctively bit down a few times, but the metal that fixed the blue Kryptonite to the spear did not break—this thing was incredibly hard, and Ian truly used his super biting force.
It made sense.
After all, it was something meant to be used against Superman, so it was reasonable to use better metal. Of course, even so, Ian, who couldn’t prove his teeth were strong enough, was reluctant to spit it out.
【 Entropy Lord Experience Points +41】
【 Savage Tyrant Experience Points +2】
【 Entropy Lord Experience Points +49】
【 Entropy Lord Experience Points +43】
…
The blue kryptonite also tasted very good, with a hint of boiled radix astragali with obsidian tombstone. The main reason was that the experience points given were enough, so Ian directly treated it as a lollipop and sucked on it fiercely.
【 Entropy Lord Experience Points +31】
【 Entropy Lord Experience Points +29】
【 Entropy Lord Experience Points +23】
…
While eating the “lollipop,” Ian didn’t forget to continue using his nose to absorb the energy from Doomsday’s body. As everyone knows, the nose and mouth are two connected facial organs.
A perfect dual experience gain was formed between sucking and slurping.
Ian achieved another win-win achievement.
【 Berserker Experience Points +7】
【 Berserker Experience Points +3】
【 Berserker Experience Points +5】
Perhaps a triple win?
Although Ian had now adapted to his body’s damage, who could blame Doomsday for constantly evolving? An evolving Doomsday naturally brought him different kinds of wounds.
As long as it evolved a bit.
When Doomsday tore at Ian, it would grant Ian experience for the 【 Berserker 】 profession.
He was just too happy.
However, this scene stunned everyone in the sky. The veteran members of the Justice League seemed to have turned to stone, their gazes fixed on the ground with utter bewilderment.
“He, he thinks you’re giving him candy?” Green Lantern Hal Jordan’s eyeballs nearly popped out of their sockets. “Is he really from the Savage tribe? Doesn’t he know that’s a weapon?!”
Green Lantern truly hadn’t expected there to be anyone in this world with a wilder imagination than his own.
“What Savage tribe? What are you talking about. He’s Clark’s son.” Batman was completely flustered. What others dared not reveal, Batman certainly dared.
His voice was like it was being squeezed out from between his teeth, grinding them together.
Ian’s reaction.
It was indeed somewhat beyond Batman’s prediction.
He knew Ian had pica, so he had coated it with some nauseating chemical synthetic substances. He never expected that kid would still accept it without hesitation and put it in his mouth.
Did this still have the taste buds of a normal person?
Since Ian’s new profession was something he had no prior behavioral information on, at this moment, Batman was once again experiencing a behavioral critical hit from the Metropolis boy.
Of course.
The one who suffered the most critical hit was Green Lantern Hal Jordan. Upon hearing Batman’s information, he was struck as if by lightning, and Superman’s unusual behavior just now kept flashing through his mind.
“So that’s it! Oh heavens, Diana, you knew this all along, didn’t you? But why didn’t you tell me just now?” Green Lantern’s voice rose several octaves as he turned to Diana.
Wonder Woman elegantly shrugged her shoulders.
“I value my friends’ privacy.”
Her reason was irrefutable, leaving Green Lantern with no room to find fault.
“You knew too?”
Hal then looked at Cyborg.
The mechanical man calmly spread his hands.
“I just checked Metropolis’s population information. Didn’t you see I stopped speaking carelessly long ago?” He gave Green Lantern a meaningful look.
“Don’t give Superman an opening. He doesn’t hold grudges easily. If he finds an opportunity later, he’ll beat you harder than me. You haven’t experienced his beating yet, have you?”
Cyborg recalled the Steppenwolf invasion incident.
What happened right after Superman’s revival was still fresh in his memory. He would still dream of that time at night, even without his Mother Box weaving pleasant dreams for him.
“…”
Cyborg’s reminder sent a shiver down Green Lantern’s spine.
He glanced at Batman, who silently touched his chest. This scene immediately made the intelligent Green Lantern seem to understand something, and cold sweat began to bead on his forehead.
“You were beaten the worst, weren’t you? Okay… I get it.” He kind of wanted to avoid Earth altogether from now on, and not return unless absolutely necessary.
“Bruce, do you want to go back and get a few more blue kryptonites? I didn’t have time to copy it just now.” Green Lantern only wanted to return to the universe that gave him such peace after this was over.
“Or should we find some from this ruin? What if there are really countermeasures left by Luthor?” Cyborg proposed a more efficient suggestion.
Only Wonder Woman silently watched Batman.
As expected.
Her understanding of Batman was second only to Superman’s. Batman, without a word, pulled out a dark metal box from the Batmobile’s weapon compartment.
The moment the lid popped open.
The blue light of kryptonite radiation illuminated his face, making him look exactly like a Smurf.
“One each.” Batman pulled out three spears from dozens and handed them to his teammates—his collection left Green Lantern and Cyborg at a loss for words.
This was a comprehensive defense against any form of Superman?
“This thing… did you steal it from Luthor’s factory?” Wonder Woman found it hard to believe. Why were there so many parallel universe kryptonites in Batman’s possession?
Wasn’t collecting one or two of each sufficient to make a point? With so many blue kryptonites, Wonder Woman felt she might still be underestimating Batman’s green kryptonite collection.
“Prepare for battle.”
Batman didn’t respond to his teammates’ questions at all.
Just as Superman had said in Gotham before, he had indeed prepared sufficient countermeasures, but no one had the right to know how much kryptonite he had collected.
Nor did teammates need to know if Batman sneaked into villains’ homes at night.
“No, you’re even guarding against me?” Green Lantern hovered in mid-air, trying to replicate more spears—he discovered that this thing seemed to have a design that countered Green Lantern energy.
Green Lantern was truly speechless.
In response.
Cyborg, who had been studied by Batman many times, was accustomed to it.
He didn’t even test it.
He was just calculating the optimal trajectory for throwing spears at long range. After distributing weapons to his teammates, Batman locked the weapon compartment and put it back into his Batmobile.
“What about you? Why didn’t you prepare one for yourself?” Wonder Woman frowned, looking at Batman’s empty hands, she only realized something was amiss.
“Perhaps Bruce wants to act as bait himself, to draw Doomsday’s fire for us?” Cyborg was somewhat touched, and Green Lantern, who had been a bit displeased earlier, was just about to be touched as well.
However.
The next moment, they saw Batman open another weapon compartment. The man directly pulled out an incredibly exaggerated heavy artillery piece from the compartment.
“The strange thing from the Kent family has already drawn enough fire. We just need to deal with the other Doomsday.” Batman adjusted the heavy cannon in his hand.
Heavy and mechanical.
The barrel was thicker than that of many tanks, with complex symbols etched onto it, as if Batman had even sought out a magician for enchantment. Inside, it was loaded with high-density blue kryptonite ammunition.
“????”
“?????”
“???????”
The three different faces of the Justice League were filled with the same question marks, each one more pronounced than the last. They were truly shocked by Batman’s actions.
Holy hell, heavy artillery.
Was this something Batman, who favored cold weapons, would bring out?
Cyborg scanned the cannon’s data, his mechanical eyes flashing wildly: “The recoil from this thing could shatter the bones of a normal person, Bruce, you can’t handle this.”
He wanted Batman to let him play with the cannon.
But Batman wouldn’t fall for it.
“The best things naturally should be kept for oneself. Don’t worry about me. Everyone knows how painful it is to be hit by that thing. I don’t have your cockroach-like life.”
Saying that.
Batman began to set up the cannon in mid-air. His explanation also seemed reasonable to others, after all, Batman would die quickly if Doomsday smashed him hard.
He was just a mortal body.
He hadn’t even undergone mechanical ascension.
On this battlefield, no one knew his limits better than Batman.
“Alright.”
Wonder Woman nodded and plunged down, with Green Lantern and Cyborg following closely, carrying sharp spears and firm resolve, finally beginning to do what superheroes should do.
Meanwhile.
On the ground.
【 Entropy Lord Experience Points +23】
【 Berserker Experience Points +7】
The experience points continued to grow.
Ian squinted his eyes.
Even though he was being hammered by Doomsday and his body was constantly damaged, he still held onto Doomsday tightly, like a slippery octopus, a satisfied smile on his face.
“I want to be with you forever!”
He confessed deeply to Doomsday.
However, Doomsday didn’t appreciate it at all.
Instead, he tore at Ian’s body even more fiercely. As expected, the one who confesses first always gets hurt more. Understanding this, Ian felt his heart turn to stone once again.
“Stop devouring my energy! I can barely hold on!” The voice from within Doomsday had begun to plead, without the threat it had earlier.
“Then come out yourself, come out yourself, I promise I won’t eat you, otherwise you’ll just have to call for help until your throat breaks!” Ian was still holding the unbreakable blue spear in his mouth, his nose continuously drawing in the remaining energy from Doomsday’s body. His experience bar was about to explode, and he was in an extremely happy state.
When an evil god is happy, it naturally wants to trick people for fun; this is very much in character for an evil god. Just as Ian was kindly persuading the soul hiding within Doomsday to surrender.
“Don’t let them come over!”
Suddenly.
The voice from within Doomsday was filled with fear. It seemed to be able to peek at the outside movements through Doomsday’s eyes. At its reminder, Ian finally looked up at the heroes rapidly approaching.
“How about you come out and I’ll help you escape? Otherwise, if they catch you, you’ll really be eaten! Do you know about the Bat-monster? It likes to eat strange things.”
Ian seized the opportunity and immediately began to coerce and entice.
The other party did not fall for it.
It only roared back with an even more anxious voice.
“No! Stop! Don’t let them come over! Damn fool! Do you think I’m the only one in here? You’re going to release a monster much more terrifying than me!”
“That’s the sin of the outer universe!”
Ian’s soul trembled from the scream within Doomsday’s body. The other party’s soul was clearly immensely powerful, it just hadn’t awakened. And its words made Ian freeze on the spot.
The sin of the outer universe?
He sensed the keywords.
“Pause! You all pause! Something is wrong!”
Ian quickly looked up and shouted at the Justice League.
He realized something was amiss.
The youth had initially thought this was just Doomsday corrupted by Fel Energy, but now it sounded like Doomsday’s body contained not only a Kryptonian Ancient God, but also an existence from the outer universe that even Kryptonian Ancient Gods feared?
Ian’s mind flashed back to the great adventure he had with Cousin Aunt Kara.
“Stop fighting! Go to the airbase and invite my father!” Ian’s brain was running at full speed, but his words were not taken to heart by the Justice League.
Everyone has a reputation.
Perhaps this was Ian’s reputation in the Justice League’s eyes.
The heroes thought they had encountered Ian trying to hoard his food.
“Rumble! Rumble!”
Batman directly pulled the trigger. His heavy artillery fired, and kryptonite rounds shot out from the heavy cannon, heading straight for Doomsday’s head.
The heavy cannon was indeed powerful.
The bullets poured down like rain.
Each one was larger than a fist, possessing enough power to tear apart any normal creature. The warheads were also enchanted with absolute suppression against extraterrestrial kryptonian species.
Ian’s pupils contracted, and he immediately spread out his four arms to try and intercept!
“Don’t kill him! There’s a monster inside him!!”
His body instantly sprouted eight mimicked spider legs. Combined with his original two hands and two feet, a total of twelve “hands” swung simultaneously, attempting to catch the whistling bullets.
This time.
Ian looked truly cool as he caught the bullets.
But even so—his hands and feet combined were still not enough! The intensity of Batman’s persecution complex was directly proportional to the ferocity of the firepower he was unleashing on Doomsday.
Even as Ian’s spider legs flailed madly, and he blurred into an afterimage intercepting bullets, he was ultimately still held by Doomsday and unable to intercept all the shots.
Ian was truly trying his best.
He was even using his mouth.
【 Entropy Lord Experience Points +2】
【 Entropy Lord Experience Points +2】
【 Entropy Lord Experience Points +2】
…
The kryptonite warheads shattered between his teeth, tasting as bitter as concentrated broccoli juice.
At this moment, Ian finally understood why evil gods liked to have countless hands and many mouths. Sometimes, he truly felt the helplessness of not having enough limbs.
Of course.
Not enough mouths either.
“Don’t shoot it! There’s really a monster inside its body!” Ian’s admonishment was certainly heard by the heroes, but seeing him only made them more certain he was guarding his food.
“Ah, it’s over.”
Ian, who had been caught, had no choice.
He could only watch as countless bullets blasted into Doomsday’s head, while three spears pierced Doomsday’s body from different directions, directly impaling the energy core within.
“Roar!”
The blue kryptonite was indeed effective.
Doomsday froze in place, its skin rapidly graying. It mechanically lowered its head to look at the kryptonite weapons embedded in its chest, slowly ceasing its struggle as if frozen in time.
Its hands, covered in bone spikes and bio-armor, hung down towards the ground.
Its eyes dimmed.
The roaring completely stopped.
“Did we succeed?”
Wonder Woman, observing the silent Doomsday, moved to the front of its body. She reached out and grabbed Ian, intending to pull him off Doomsday.
“You need to come down! Child!”
Wonder Woman found she couldn’t pull Ian.
At this moment.
The ground finally became quiet again.
The fel energy clouds in the sky were dissipating.
Doomsday’s body remained still like a statue weathered for a thousand years.
Cyan-purple skin was covered in gray and white cracks. Cyborg’s scanner emitted a steady “beep-beep” sound, and Green Lantern had released his spears, wiping sweat from his brow that had appeared due to tension.
“It’s finally over,”
Hal sighed in relief.
“I suggest we go to that new place that opened in Metropolis—”
He was about to celebrate.
“Shh!”
Ian suddenly raised a finger, clinging to Doomsday’s back like a sloth, his ear pressed against the bone-spiked nape, “Don’t you hear it?”
“That old thing is still cursing! He says we’ll all die together…” He was merely relaying the words of a Kryptonian Ancient God, and upon hearing this, Wonder Woman’s expression suddenly changed.
“What does that mean?”
She quickly pressed for an answer.
“Don’t you hear it, that roaring sound—oh, right, you weren’t blessed, you can’t sense those souls.” Ian remained clinging to the kneeling Doomsday.
He was a little nervous.
“As far as I know, Doomsday has no soul.”
Cyborg frowned, quite confused, upon hearing this.
“Yeah,” Green Lantern shrugged, “It’s over.”
Both were a bit optimistic, after all, they had inspected Doomsday’s condition. Doomsday was turning into inorganic matter, and this ancient biological weapon couldn’t withstand the natural enemy of Kryptonian life.
“Tell us your story, little Kryptonian.” Green Lantern also began to help Wonder Woman, but neither of them could pull Ian off Doomsday.
“Stop messing around! I’m gathering intel!” Ian was listening intently; the ancient voice had fallen silent, and a heavy sound like a demon’s breath emanated from Doomsday’s body.
“There’s no intel. If you don’t come down soon, I’ll tell your father.” Wonder Woman worried that if she left Ian here unattended, she’d find him gnawing on Doomsday’s corpse later.
“Then you’d better hurry…”
Ian’s reminder wasn’t finished.
“Heh.”
Doomsday suddenly raised its head.
A strange green light flowed from its eyes.
They were scorching and terrifying, like two miniature suns.
“I have been reborn! Darkness… will never be extinguished!”
A mountain-shattering roar exploded.
The cracks on Doomsday’s body suddenly burst with dazzling green light, and the gray-white parts peeled off like eggshells, revealing a new, crystal-like jade-green skin underneath.
Its spine grew taller, its chest expanded violently, and the energy core that had been shattered began to regenerate, turning an eerie emerald green, the color of fel energy.
Terrifying fel energy surged.
“This weak body cannot bear my eternal divine power! Yet, you cannot even resist the fel energy I created, and this world will surely be the beginning of my rekindled expeditionary fire!” Doomsday spoke in human language, its body continuously changing and expanding, breaking through a hundred meters in an instant, casting a shadow that enveloped the entire ruin in darkness.
Green fel energy erupted from every pore.
Forming a thick layer of poisonous fog.
Wherever it went, nothing grew.
Ian was still clinging tightly to Doomsday’s body.
He found he could no longer draw any energy with a strong breath.
“Get lost!! Ant!!” The fel energy Doomsday let out a deafening roar, its sound waves becoming a physical shockwave that instantly turned the surrounding building debris into ashes!
All the superheroes were flung away almost simultaneously.
They crashed heavily into the ground and ruins.
Ian, however, remained firmly rooted on Doomsday’s body. But Doomsday was now too massive; it was no longer the mere biological weapon that only knew how to kill.
It was occupied by something that had suppressed a Kryptonian Ancient God.
“Outer universe… Dark Titan…”
Ian had already perceived the truth. He was pulled off Doomsday’s body by the fel energy Doomsday, like a tick being removed. This fel energy Doomsday did not choose to crush Ian.
“Begone! Dirty thing!”
The fel energy Doomsday threw Ian away directly.
“Whoosh—!”
Ian instantly turned into a shooting star, streaking across the sky and disappearing beyond the distant horizon.
“Rumble~”
Batman in the sky continued to pull the trigger, but the bullets that could deal with Doomsday, when striking the current Doomsday, were like stones falling into lava.
They dissolved rapidly.
Without causing even a ripple.
Just as Batman was preparing to switch equipment.
“Mortal! Witness true power!” The fel energy Doomsday’s response to Batman was to raise its sky-obscuring palm, a vortex in its palm as dazzling as a green sun.
“Damn it!”
Batman had no choice.
It was a repeat of the past.
Panicked, he activated the Batmobile and began to evade. However, even though the Batmobile was powerful, the fel energy Doomsday’s body was simply too massive.
Its strength was also terrifying.
When it clenched its fist.
The air was compressed, creating a sonic boom cloud.
The shockwave sent the Batmobile two kilometers away tumbling.
“Every world is an anvil to be forged! The Burning Legion will forge a new era with flame!” This roar carried a strange rhythm, and the sky subsequently cracked into spiderweb-like patterns.
Thick, viscous green liquid seeped from these cracks.
Heaven and earth changed color.
Green storm clouds churned and gathered under this giant’s roar.
The Justice League had done what they did best.
Before solving a problem, they would invariably mess it up in the worst possible direction.
“Welcome my rebirth! Hahahaha!”
The green fel light spread like a plague, and the entire sky seemed to be dyed a hellish emerald green. People in the distant city also noticed something was wrong, looking at the scene in terror.
Screams erupted one after another.
“Swoosh swoosh swoosh~”
Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, Cyborg, and Batman attacked simultaneously. The Lasso of Truth ensnared, energy constructs bound, plasma cannons fired, and kryptonite bullets rained down—however, all the attacks on Sargeras only caused a few sparks, failing to even pierce his skin.
“Is this tickling you?” Sargeras chuckled lowly, his voice laced with disdain, “Your struggles will only make your deaths more painful!”
His tone was filled with extreme arrogance and cruelty.
“Is this guy… still Doomsday? No! His genes are mutating in an unknown direction!” Cyborg scanned the data in astonishment, only to find that the energy readings had already exceeded the analysis range.
“I defeated another soul, this body now belongs to me.”
Sargeras raised his giant palm, fel energy surging like a tsunami, “I am Sargeras, the Eternal Titan! Your world will become fuel for the Burning Legion!”
His roar shook the surrounding space.
A torrent of terrifying fel energy swept over, and the Justice League was instantly submerged. Wonder Woman raised her shield high, resisting with difficulty, but the surface of the shield was already beginning to corrode.
“Hold on!”
She gritted her teeth and shouted.
This was an attempt to unleash latent power.
However.
It wasn’t very useful.
Just as they were about to lose their grip.
“Boom!!!”
A figure in red and blue slammed into Sargeras’s face like a meteorite.
The shockwave shattered nearby mountains.
Superman.
Finally arrived.
“Clark…”
Wonder Woman panted, looking at the familiar figure.
Superman’s punch caused Sargeras to tilt his head slightly.
But then he sneered.
“You’re finally here, Kryptonian. Last time, you and your little brat double-crossed me. This time, I’m reborn, and even if I haven’t returned to my peak, I’m more than enough to deal with you—mortal, you will know what you have provoked.” He clearly remembered his previous fight with Clark amidst the shattered universe remnants.
This was also why he had thrown Ian away after capturing him—he remembered that the kid was too troublesome, and he didn’t want to deal with such trouble right now.
Superman didn’t waste words and charged forward again.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
Punch after punch.
Every collision caused earthquake-like tremors.
Sargeras’s fel energy fist smashed down, Superman dodged, and the ground instantly collapsed into a pit tens of kilometers deep. Superman counterattacked, his heat vision cutting through the opponent’s body like a laser.
However, Sargeras’s fel energy armor was rapidly regenerating.
“You can’t win against me, Kryptonian.”
Sargeras sneered and punched Superman into the ground.
“Clark! I’ll help you!” Seeing this, Wonder Woman immediately flew to support him, but she was kicked away by Sargeras with a backhand, crashing through several mountains before stopping.
“Diana!”
Superman crawled out of the ruins, blood oozing from his mouth. It wasn’t an external wound, but an internal one. He felt the corrosive effect of fel energy again, but he didn’t care.
“Go find Ian! He’s…”
The old father seemed more worried about where his younger son had been thrown.
However.
Before he could finish speaking.
“I’m back~ You guys definitely won’t believe what treasure I found in the wild. Enhancement potions, more enhancement potions, and lots and lots of enhancement potions.”
“Lex Luthor indeed has factories everywhere.”
A familiar voice rang out.
Everyone turned around and saw Ian standing at the edge of the battlefield at some point, a glowing potion vial in his mouth and a pile of bottles and jars in his arms.
“Dad! I’m here to help you!”
He grinned.
His eyes suddenly lit up with golden light.
“Whoosh!”
Under Wonder Woman’s startled and suspicious gaze, who thought Ian might have been mind-controlled, Ian’s heat vision did not attack the enormous fel energy Doomsday.
Instead, it accurately hit Superman’s back.
“Ugh—!”
Superman grunted.
But it wasn’t from pain. On the contrary, a strength never felt before surged from within him, his cells and stamina recovering, and the fatigue from the previous battle against the clones vanished instantly.
His face was flushed, as if he had taken a powerful tonic.
“This…?”
Superman clenched his fist, feeling a surge of power.
He was very surprised.
Wonder Woman and the other superheroes were also bewildered.
“What is he doing?”
Green Lantern stared dumbfounded.
“Now, I think you should all know who the truly pure-blooded Sun in Metropolis is, right?” Ian said, firing his Heat Ray and continuously chugging the upgrade drink.
【 Savage Tyrant Experience Points+13】
【 Savage Tyrant Experience Points+11】
【 Savage Tyrant Experience Points+34】
He’s really drinking the genuine article now.
Ian is very grateful to Lex Luthor.
It’s Boss Lex Luthor’s generosity.
It’s why the Outskirts of Metropolis
seem to have supply points that can refresh randomly everywhere.
This isn’t an extra-large cup; this is the normal amount of updates. What’s owed won’t be defaulted on.
