Chapter 125: Super Skills! Injustice Superman Arrives!
The black orb contained the existence concept of the Dark Titan Sargeras.
When it was absorbed by Ian.
It and all the influence it caused would of course vanish completely. Accompanied by Ian’s action achieving unexpected success, the fel energy dark clouds in the sky were stirred as if by an invisible hand. The originally surging green vortex began to dissipate. Those fel energy raindrops falling from the cloud layer turned into ashes and scattered in mid-air.
The small Doomsdays rampaging in the city also suddenly froze in place, their bodies decomposing from the edges, like sand sculptures scattered by the wind, turning bit by bit into drifting green light spots. They seemed to be erased by some invisible force, like dust drifting in the wind, leaving no trace.
It was a complete and utter disappearance.
The entire world seemed to fall into a brief silence at this moment.
Jordan.
And the Justice League members stood on the street.
They watched all of this happen.
Some of them couldn’t react immediately.
Everyone had just been fighting the monsters.
It was extremely difficult, to the point that they once thought this city would completely fall into hell. However, now, everything was over—at least it seemed that way.
Green Lantern Hal Jordan put away his energy construct weapon.
He stared blankly at the restored calm sky.
“It’s… over just like that?”
It wasn’t that he thought it shouldn’t end.
But Green Lantern didn’t expect the disaster to end so quickly.
“Yes, it’s over.”
Cyborg’s mechanical eye kept flashing streams of data.
“Clark and his son succeeded.” Wonder Woman reached out her hand, touching those drifting light spots, but found they had no substance and no longer any energy.
As if everything before was just an illusion.
“Only half successful, we still have a Kryptonian Ancient God to deal with.”
Batman stood at a broken high point, his cape flapping in the wind. He stared into the distance toward the direction where the Titan Doomsday fell, his expression under the mask inscrutable.
“That soul that defeated the Titan.”
The Justice League members immediately prepared for battle again. They didn’t know the credit actually belonged to Ian, still thinking Batman’s previous dog-eat-dog plan destroyed the Titan.
“Dad, Mom! Look at my magic… damn, those monsters are gone.” Madison, who found her parents, originally wanted to show off in front of them.
However.
In the end, there was no such opportunity.
Her parents looked at her with complex expressions.
Relieved that their daughter was safe, but shocked by her sudden “magic talent.” They hadn’t even had time to ask where she went tonight.
Perhaps they shouldn’t ask.
These parents were very afraid that Madison’s spirit would be stimulated, worsening her condition. They stared at the huge white meatball in Madison’s hand, their minds echoing with what their daughter had said to them before.
“This is the new magic I learned, fertilized egg implantation technique. Whoever I throw it at will get pregnant, regardless of gender, and they’ll immediately start giving birth and lose combat ability.”
Madison sincerely admired her deskmate’s magic talent.
However.
Her parents might just want her to increase her medication dosage? Walking on the street, more and more people realized the disaster was over, emerging one after another from their hiding spots.
“This… is it over?”
A soldier muttered to himself. He had originally been entangled by a Doomsday, his consciousness about to fade, but in that instant, that existence that devoured everything suddenly vanished like smoke.
The soldier regained his freedom. He knelt on the ground, gasping for breath, looking around to see the chaos on the street not fully settled, but the Doomsdays were gone.
Not only that.
Those people originally devoured by the Doomsdays actually reappeared one after another.
As if time rewound, death reversed.
Their bodies emerged from the void, eyes dazed, as if they hadn’t figured out what happened.
“Mom!” A child cried out and pounced toward his mother, who almost couldn’t believe her eyes. She trembled as she hugged the child, tears streaming out.
“Dad!” Another man knelt on the ground, tightly hugging his elderly father, as if afraid of losing him again.
These touching scenes played out in every corner of the city. People embraced, cried, prayed, thanking fate for giving them a second chance.
The air was filled with emotions interwoven with joy and sorrow—this was actually not resurrection from death, but with the disappearance of the small Doomsdays, the existence concepts they hadn’t had time to bring back to the Dark Titan returned to this world. Cheers, cries, and shouts intertwined.
The entire city seemed to wake from a nightmare, like a belated rebirth ceremony.
Only.
Not everyone could welcome a reunion ending.
At a certain street corner, a man stood dazed in place, his wife didn’t return. At another ruin, a little girl hugged her already cold teddy bear.
Her parents and companions left only cold corpses.
There were corpses.
Naturally belonging to the truly deceased, these people couldn’t return like the others.
Their departure was true life coming to an end.
The number wasn’t small.
Turmoil always comes with death.
Fully thousands.
Although compared to tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of casualties, the current situation was much better, but for the families of those who couldn’t “return” still existing in the human world.
They couldn’t feel the joy most people felt now. A middle-aged woman knelt on the ground, hands tightly gripping a photo, the smile on it now only existing in memory. Her husband was a city firefighter who rushed into the burning building when the disaster erupted, but never came out.
Death, irreversible.
“Why us, why didn’t you have that luck?” A young woman murmured softly, her fingers clutching a photo, that was her sister’s smile.
But now.
She could only go home alone.
There were more than one victims like this woman.
Human world disasters are like this.
It’s a torment brought by fate, asking no good or evil, no merits or faults, only leaving unhealable scars on the world and hearts in the cruelest way.
Even if this world has heroes, more than one, even if they try their best to save, they can never make every tear flow back into the eyes.
Life is as fragile as dandelions in the wind.
No matter how heroes spread their arms to desperately block the storm, there will always be a few wisps drifting through the fingers—that’s the hero’s tragic song, also the sorrow of ordinary people in a disaster-ridden world.
“Good thing our family doesn’t have many ordinary people.” Looking around at the crying and wailing passersby, Jordan looked at his mom and brother, feeling very fortunate his family was safe.
Not far away.
A man who lost his wife knelt in the middle of the road, sobbing uncontrollably.
“My younger brother said the goddess in charge of death is very gentle…” Socially awkward Jordan didn’t know how to comfort the passerby, he could only hand over tissue.
“Thank you, Carrefour Shopping Bag Superman.”
The soothed passerby thanked, maintaining basic politeness.
“????”
Jordan knew he was clearly wearing a Walmart shopping bag.
He suppressed his speechless feeling about the passerby’s eyesight, thought for a moment, then showed a very forced expression, expressing non-existent sympathy.
The socially awkward boy lacked empathy.
However.
This didn’t stop him from knowing a truth.
Being a hero.
Means learning to control the irritable emotions in your heart.
“Big nephew! Come lend a hand!”
Aquaman and other heroes were helping the military and official cleanup after the disaster. While Justice League members assisted the army in clearing ruins and treating the wounded, Batman was indifferent. He stood high up, gazing into the distance, most concerned about the real Doomsday in the outskirts.
While pondering countermeasures in his heart.
Suddenly.
Batman sensed a gaze watching him.
He turned his head to look.
At the corner of the alley, he saw a figure.
“Luthor?”
Batman’s voice was cold as ice.
He instantly activated his battle boots boosters, black cape pulling into a sharp silhouette behind him. However, when he rushed into the alley, that bald man just slightly turned his head.
A corner of his mouth hooked into an unsettling smile.
“I’m not your Luthor, but yes, the Doomsday containing outer universe power was my doing… such perfect life just gone.”
“What a disappointment.” Luthor’s voice was low and hoarse, like from the abyss, with a sense of regret, “After all, it wasn’t meant to deal with you.”
Hearing this.
Batman’s fist was already clenched, but Luthor suddenly looked up at the sky—some invisible alertness made this evil capitalist’s expression grave.
“Good luck to you.” The next second, his body collapsed like melting asphalt, turning into a wriggling shadow, seeping into the wall cracks, disappearing without a trace.
“Hm?”
Batman suddenly looked up.
Following Luthor’s earlier line of sight.
High in the sky.
A red-blue figure was rapidly flying toward the outskirts.
That was Superman?
Superman! This might be the figure Luthor seemed to be avoiding, also what he prepared the fel Doomsday to deal with.
“This Luthor, is he avoiding the cross-universe Justice League? Why?” Batman frowned, muttering softly. He originally thought Luthor and the cross-universe Justice League were allies.
Due to insufficient information.
Even with Batman’s brain, it was hard to sort out his thoughts in a short time.
……
At the same time.
Inside the giant Doomsday’s skull.
【Obtained profession correction data.】
【Obtained dimension data.】
【Updated 【Berserker】 base information.】
【Profession traits entering…】
【Dimension data extracting…】
Accompanied by Ian swallowing the black orb representing the outer universe invasion, system prompts immediately rang in his ears, making him jolt in place.
This was the normal reaction of great power growing in his body, body changing. In an instant, an unprecedented power surged into his limbs.
Ian felt his soul boiling.
Because he had experienced a similar change when touching Omni-Man and Sentry before, he wasn’t shocked, just slightly surprised.
Once upon a time.
When finding the first black orb.
Ian couldn’t enjoy it, he thought it contained massive experience points, but unexpectedly, this black orb born from outer universe invasion could also bring him profession changes.
“Not bad, System, looks like you’re not just strong in your own yard.” Ian had tried unlocking professions in the DC universe before, but failed several times.
Now it seems.
He had somewhat underestimated the System.
The System can actually provide help to Ian not just in the Marvel Universe, as long as it’s power from universes other than DC, it can probably become the 【absorbable data】 the System mentioned. Just like the black orb from the Dark Titan, directly supplementing Ian’s 【Berserker】 profession.
【Strength: 284—311】
【Constitution: 335—350】
【Intelligence: 20.8—23.5】
【Spirit: 110—120】
Accompanied by attribute increases.
Ian’s body grew stronger again silently.
Actually, the numerical changes weren’t much, because this Dark Titan data had the same effect as the previous Omni-Man and Sentry data.
It didn’t provide a new profession. Instead, it brought extraordinary future potential and a stronger growth panel, giving Ian’s existing profession an advancement direction. The biggest impact was on talents and skills; due to new data, Ian’s personal panel naturally had many new changes.
【Name: Ian Kent】
【Normal Professions: Student lv8〔389/1280〕Writer LV4〔49/80〕Leader LV7〔59/640〕】
【Supernatural Professions: Berserker LV8〔985/1280〕, Savage Tyrant lv9〔2145/2560〕Entropy Annihilation Lord Lv9〔322/2560〕】
【World Recognition: Key NPC】
【Talent Skills: Reverse Blood Furnace, Perfect Divinity, Life Feeding】
【Profession Skills: Wrath of the Undying, Blasphemous Elegy, World-Burning Pulse, Perfect God Body, Eternal Day Eye level 3, Absolute Aerial, Contemptuous Leap, Ultimate Hunger level 3…】
【General Skills: Mimic Armor, Ian Kent Defense Technique〔Beginner〕, Share, Learning〔Elite〕…】
……
Talent passives unchanged due to profession levels, but all 【Berserker】 profession skills changed.
Just like when obtaining Sentry and Omni-Man data before.
Ian had already checked the situation.
The system’s prompt always came one step late.
【Host entered new data successfully, 【Self-Healing Tide】 corrected to 【Undying’s Lament】, please check.】
【Host entered new data successfully, 【Faith Salvation】 corrected to 【Blasphemous Elegy】, please check.】
【Host entered new data successfully, 【Blood of Rage】 corrected to 【World-Burning Pulse】, please check.】
Three consecutive dings.
Representing Ian’s 【Berserker】 profession officially strengthened.
First.
The recovery method that was Ian’s foundation.
It changed from active skill to passive.
【Undying’s Lament: When receiving any form of damage, recover 1% of max health per second, heals all wounds including fatal ones.
Heavier wounds, faster recovery. When health below 10%, gain Rebirth from Fire instant repair, life’s revelry continues until all energy depleted.
Death? That’s always a luxury for you.】
Had to say.
Just like upgrading from 【Iron Body】 to 【Perfect God Body】, and like 【Eye of Blazing Sun】 to 【Eternal Day Eye】, profession skills fused with new data were absolutely earth-shaking.
“Deadpool is no longer better than me! No need to find Deadpool to learn, I’ve surpassed Deadpool, I am the real Deadpool!” Usually realistic Ian’s face showed slight joy.
He looked at his next upgraded skill.
【Blasphemous Elegy: With firm faith in yourself, blaspheme gods’ authority, strip all positive or negative buffs from yourself or others.
They will be thrown into your own furnace to burn, briefly turning into your power—holy light, curses, fate, all worldly shackles vanish under your gaze.】
Still the old-school boasting style.
Ian knew once getting ultimate profession template, the system liked using grandiose words to boast to him, he didn’t blame the system, after all he loved eating the big pies it painted.
See.
The last upgraded skill also hid an exciting big pie.
【World-Burning Pulse: Ignite 1% of your blood per point, attacks carry Annihilation Damage equal to max health. At 100 stacks, choose to release “Final Shockwave”.
Directly deal 200% of your lost health damage to all enemies in range—your burning blood is the abyss of all things, the fireworks opening eternal apocalypse.】
Never mind if the system’s pie is satisfying, anyway Ian was full, he couldn’t quite figure the difference between this 【Annihilation Damage】 and 【true damage】.
“Practice makes perfect.”
Ian wasn’t afraid to act, on the contrary, he was very good at it. Looking around, the boy targeted that brain tissue bigger than his house.
“Watch me open your apocalypse fireworks!” Ian ignited his blood, quoting the system’s description, even if criticized, it would be the system not him.
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh~”
As blood boiled.
Black evil aura steamed from Ian’s whole body.
He smashed a fist at the nearby brain tissue surface glowing golden-red, no longer green. At contact, weird black ripples spread.
“Boom!”
Actually Doomsday’s internal organs defense was extremely strong, after all Kryptonian nightmare, universe-level bioweapon, not like Homelander’s fake goods weak inside.
Even with Ian’s strength hundreds times normal, his full punch only made the hill-sized brain shake slightly.
No substantial physical damage.
However.
Added damage very obvious. Hit area under black ripples immediately changed terribly—not destroyed.
But directly “disappeared”!
Like pencil drawing erased by rubber!
“Annihilation means this?”
Ian leaned close to observe the two-meter diameter hole. Missing surface no bleeding, no tissue damage traces, as if that brain part never existed.
This was existence-erasing power!
More terrifying than true damage!
“As expected of me! If system changed host, definitely couldn’t upgrade such powerful ability, hosts have gaps, not every host as talented as me.”
Ian was doing daily PUA to his system, while system liked painting big pies for him, classic case of not on same page.
Everyone had great mental state.
Just as Ian was overjoyed.
“Damn! Kid! Were you born this evil? Great deity saved you! You should worship me! Not try to destroy my body!!”
In the attacked brain.
That golden-red soul also roared simultaneously.
Ian pretended not to hear.
He still needed to check another info—the job change profession brought by Dark Titan Sargeras, this info needed checking on 【Berserker】 profession skill tree.
As always.
【Berserker】 profession could advance twice.
Even though Ian only got one target’s data this time.
However.
This didn’t affect system showing him advanced and ultimate advancement professions. Profession data only affects development direction, not needing to complete specific direction data.
Whatever data obtained.
System generates corresponding advancement path.
Very user-friendly.
See.
After opening skill tree, Ian saw two dividing lines on it, splitting skill levels into three tiers, each tier background different.
First tier a giant roaring to sky.
It was Ian’s current 【Berserker】 profession.
Second tier an arrogant unbound shadow, tearing rule chains like waste paper, broken laws cracking like glass underfoot.
It was Iron Law Trampler, like Merciless Conqueror, this profession also needs level 45 to advance, post-advance gains massive attribute increases per description.
Actually not just attributes.
Each shadow represents development direction after job change. As for third tier at level 90, it also represents that job change’s direction.
It at skill tree top.
A mountain-like shadow, eyes deep, single hand holding rotating stars in palm, each star burning destruction and creation power.
This tier’s job change named King of All Worlds, with aura of dominating multiverse—Ian also found that myth form-containing skill in choices.
Obviously.
This also an ultimate profession.
Able to transform into something Ian didn’t know.
【Flesh The End: When you burn your flesh, shed mortal bonds, you will in endless glory show true form as King of All Worlds.】
This a level 90 learnable skill.
Among top tier skills. Later than 【Entropy Annihilation Lord】’s myth form for Ian, normal, after all 【Entropy Annihilation Lord】 no prerequisites.
New skill tree has many powerful skills.
Some dazzling.
As for previous top skill Eternal Fury Ian obsessed with, gone, replaced by one Ian felt he probably didn’t dare learn.
【Upon your death, if Rage Value ≥80%, negative statuses ≥25, choose:
「Destruction Rebirth」: Immediately self-explode, deal 500% max health damage to surroundings, revive at explosion center（retaining 50% health）
「Creation Reincarnation」: Inject all energy into nearest unit, temporarily give it all your skills, you rebirth from that unit after 42s.】
Obviously.
This skill has single-target and AoE kill choices, single-target way made Ian slightly silent, he decided to pretend not seeing this skill on tree.
“System! Where’s my dimension data?”
Ian turned to question his system, he finished checking data info, but so-called dimension data hadn’t appeared to surprise him.
What is this?
Late surprise cheaper than roadside weeds!
【Dimension data extracted, parsing—current progress 5%, data contains incomplete cosmic laws, can help host forge own extra dimension.】
Perhaps afraid of petty Ian holding grudge, questioned system immediately responded to Ian, even preemptively spoiling to avoid complaints on parse speed.
Things in dimension data.
“Forge my own dimension?” Ian savored system info, actually wanted to curse, advise system change higher performance CPU.
However.
Witty Ian also afraid system’s CPU was his brain.
Of course couldn’t curse own brain.
“Make do.”
Cautious Ian chose patience.
He actually discovered a problem long ago.
System perhaps follows his strengthening, gaining more abilities or permissions. Know, at start system couldn’t clear so-called error data.
Now.
It not only clears error data, but lets Ian provide “Firewall” to others, obviously different from previous self.
“Now who relies on who, obvious, no need say, smart people know.” Waiting, Ian also looked at still glowing golden-red brain.
After profanity scolding Ian, that Titan Ancient God didn’t speak again. Of course, didn’t stop Ian wanting more soul dust mist from him.
【Entropy Annihilation Lord Experience Points+14】
【Entropy Annihilation Lord Experience Points+18】
【Entropy Annihilation Lord Experience Points+22】
……
Ian pressed mouth to Doomsday’s brain, sucking madly, invisible dust mists surged into his mouth like tornado.
This of course very joyful.
But Titan Ancient God obviously suffering.
“Aaaah!”
He felt driven mad, no more words, just golden-red energy flowing faster, as if planning quick revival to settle scores with Ian.
“Rumble!”
Just as Ian gorging on Kryptonian Ancient God’s soul energy.
He suddenly heard deafening rumble outside.
That was fighting noise.
“What’s going on?” Ian poked head from Titan’s ear hole, just saw red-blue figure smash into ground like cannonball—that was his old dad Clark!
Enemy!
And enemy another hovering mid-air Superman!
“Too weak.”
Injustice Superman said coldly.
“Victory by trickery didn’t make you burst enough potential.” He didn’t land, just stared at Clark, punching him deep underground.
“Now, pay price for your sloth, your power and everything taken by me, you unqualified to bear Superman name.” Injustice Superman declared, full of condescending vibe.
“I think you’re less qualified.”
Clark crawling from ground truly angry.
He flew into sky.
Face full of annoyance.
How not annoyed?
Front foot worry Batman.
Back foot another Superman jump out say take his wife and child!
Who can endure?
Clark went all out.
He angrily punched at Injustice Superman.
But expressionless Injustice Superman directly caught fist.
Clark couldn’t advance.
“Still weak, what, family can’t make you burst? Looks like your potential limited.” Injustice Superman sneered, counter-punch to Clark’s chest, sending him into Doomsday’s body.
“Damn!”
Clark let out muffled sound.
Body fully embedded in Doomsday’s torso.
“Old dad! I help you! I’m strongest power bank! Paladin glory shine on you soon!”
Ian shocked seeing this.
Hesitate not, rushed out.
His eyes surged golden glow, like two mini suns. Next second, Clark’s wounds instantly healed, body wrapped in powerful energy. He burst from Doomsday body straight at Injustice Superman!
“This is family’s meaning!”
Ian shouting for his old dad.
Old father silently punched at Injustice Superman.
“Still no match… wait!” Injustice Superman suddenly found opponent speed much faster, actually his speed slowed, Clark’s fist hit his face, distorting it and making him spit blood wildly.
“What’s going on!”
Injustice Superman shocked.
He turned to Ian.
Suddenly found Ian’s eyes weirdly rotating separately—left eye yellow glow, right eye red glow.
“Red Sun Ray?!”
Injustice Superman finally changed color.
Not just face.
His whole body reflected red light.
Taking leave today, this chapter is leave slip, owe one big chapter—big shots, group full, squeezed funds from my wallet, upgraded to 2000-person group, come quick.
