Chapter 340
Diana walked over as well, holding the Lasso of Truth, and said heroically: "Hode, let me try with the Lasso of Truth; perhaps it can bind this Dark Power."
Hode hesitated for a moment. He knew Diana was powerful, but facing this mysterious gem, he couldn't be certain if the Lasso of Truth would be effective.
However, there was no better solution right now, so he nodded and said: "Alright, Diana, be careful."
Diana walked slowly toward the gem and whipped the Lasso of Truth at it.
The Lasso of Truth emitted a golden glow, flying toward the gem like a bolt of lightning.
However, the moment the Lasso of Truth made contact with the gem, a powerful Dark Power erupted from within, knocking the Lasso of Truth away.
Diana swayed, nearly falling to the ground.
Hode rushed forward to steady Diana and asked with concern: "Are you alright?"
Diana shook her head and said: "I'm fine, but the power of this gem is too strong; the Lasso of Truth simply cannot bind it."
Felicia watched from the sidelines, a hint of craftiness in her eyes.
She walked up to Hode and whispered: "Hode, perhaps we can approach this from another angle. This gem contains Dark Power; perhaps we can neutralize it using the Light Power contained within the feelings between us."
Hode's heart stirred upon hearing Felicia's words.
He recalled the little moments spent with Natasha, Diana, Felicia, and the others; those beautiful memories flashed through his mind like a movie.
He felt a warm power surging in his heart—it was the power contained within the feelings they shared.
Just then, the distorted space around the gem grew larger, and a powerful suction force emanated from it, as if it were about to devour everything nearby.
The members of the Avengers and the Justice Leagueactivated their abilities, attempting to resist the suction, but with little effect.
Hode knew he could not hesitate any longer. He took a deep breath, focused his mind, and mobilized all the Light Power contained within the feelings he shared with Natasha, Diana, Felicia, and the others.
A dazzling light radiated from around his body; the light was as bright as the Sun, illuminating the entire space.
Natasha looked at Hode, her eyes full of tenderness and trust.
She said: "Hode, I believe you will succeed."
Diana also nodded and said: "Hode, do your best; we are all by your side."
Felicia held Hode's hand tightly and said: "Hode, we will face this together."
Feeling their support and encouragement, Hode's heart was filled with strength.
He gave a loud shout and shot the fused Light Power toward the gem.
That Light Power surged toward the gem like a giant dragon.
The moment the Light Power made contact with the gem, the Dark Power surrounding it began to churn violently.
The forces of light and darkness collided and intertwined, emitting bursts of roaring sounds.
The entire space trembled under the impact of this powerful force.
Hode stared intently at the gem, his heart filled with tension and anticipation.
He didn't know if his Light Power could neutralize the Dark Power within the gem, but he had to give it his all.
Just then, the gem's light suddenly became exceptionally bright, and a powerful energy fluctuation radiated from it.
Hode felt a massive shockwave heading toward him, so he quickly activated his abilities to resist.
Natasha, Diana, and Felicia also stepped forward to fight alongside Hode.
They used their own abilities to provide support and protection for Hode.
Through their joint efforts, the gem's light gradually stabilized.
The Dark Power and Light Power seemed to reach a balance, no longer in conflict.
However, just then, the gem suddenly made a crisp sound, and a crack appeared on its surface.
The crack grew larger, and an even more powerful force surged out from it.
Hode was shocked; he hadn't expected the gem to undergo such a change.
Just as he was about to take action, a beam of light shot out from the crack, instantly enveloping Hode and the others.
After the light faded, Hode found himself in an unfamiliar space.
There was no sky, no earth, only endless darkness and twinkling starlight.
Natasha, Diana, and Felicia also appeared by his side, looking at the surrounding environment with vigilance.
"What is this place?" Natasha asked.
Hode shook his head and said: "I don't know, but we must be careful; there is definitely huge danger hidden here."
Just then, a mysterious voice echoed in the space: "Welcome to my domain, young heroes."
Hode and the others looked in the direction of the voice and saw a figure dressed in a black robe appearing before them.
That figure radiated a powerful aura that sent shivers down one's spine.
"Who are you? Where is this?" Hode asked.
The Black-robed figure sneered and said: "I am the messenger of darkness, and this is the Dark Domain. The gem in your hands contains the power of the Dark Universe, and I will use this power to rule the entire Universe."
Hode's heart tightened; he hadn't expected such a powerful entity to be hidden behind this gem.
He clenched his fists and said: "Don't even dream of it; we won't let you succeed."
The Black-robed figure looked at Hode, a flash of disdain in his eyes.
He said: "Just you? Do you think you can stop me with your weak power? How laughable."
Having said that, the Black-robed figure waved his hands, and a powerful Dark Power surged toward Hode and the others.
Hode and the others quickly activated their abilities to resist.
The battle erupted instantly, and Hode and the others displayed their various talents, engaging in a fierce fight with the Black-robed figure.
Natasha's agility, Diana's great strength, Felicia's shadow manipulation, and Hode's fused Light Power all played a huge role in the battle.
However, the Black-robed figure's strength was too great; he easily neutralized Hode and the others' attacks and continuously launched counterattacks.
Hode and the others gradually fell into a difficult situation, all of them sustaining varying degrees of injury.
Just when Hode and the others felt desperate, suddenly, a beam of light shot from afar.
Within the light, a figure walked over slowly.
That figure radiated a divine aura that made people feel awe involuntarily.
"Who are you?" The Black-robed figure asked, watching the figure with vigilance.
The figure did not answer the Black-robed figure's question; he just stood there quietly, radiating a powerful aura.
Hode and the others looked at the figure, hope welling up in their hearts.
They didn't know if this figure was a friend or foe, but in this Dark Domain, any shred of hope was worth grasping.
And just as everyone was expecting the figure to take action, the Black-robed figure suddenly launched an even more fierce attack; a new crisis was quietly descending...
Chapter 488: They Were Gradually Unable to Resist
Hode looked at the Black-robed figure who had suddenly launched the attack, a sense of determination welling up in his heart.
He knew deeply that he could not retreat at this moment; once they retreated, not only would they fall into an irredeemable abyss, but the entire Universe could be destroyed because of it.
"Natasha, Diana, Felicia, we cannot give up!" Hode shouted loudly, his voice filled with determination.
He clenched his fists tightly and mobilized all the abilities he had gained from being in relationships with the three female superheroes.
He could feel different forces surging within his body—Natasha's agility and wisdom, Diana's divine power and courage, Felicia's shadows and agility; at this moment, these powers intertwined, forming an unprecedented and powerful energy.
Natasha's eyes were sharp; she moved her figure quickly, like an agile black cat, searching for the Black-robed figure's weakness in the darkness.
"Hode, let's go together; we can't let him succeed!" She said while drawing two special daggers from her waist and rushing toward the Black-robed figure.
Diana stood there heroically, holding the Lasso of Truth.
She took a deep breath and infused her divine power into the Lasso of Truth, causing the lasso to emit a dazzling golden light.
"In the name of Zeus, bind the evil!" She shouted and whipped the Lasso of Truth toward the Black-robed figure.
Felicia hid in the darkness; her figure was like a ghost, making her difficult to track.
She quietly approached the Black-robed figure, looking for the best opportunity to launch an attack.
"Hode, I will find a chance to strike him a fatal blow." Her voice sounded in Hode's ear, carrying a hint of craftiness.
The Black-robed figure watched Hode and the others launch an attack again and sneered.
"Do you ants think you can resist me?" He waved his hands, and an even more surging Dark Power poured out from his body, forming a black barrier that blocked Natasha's daggers and Diana's Lasso of Truth.
Seeing this, Hode knew he couldn't let the Black-robed figure continue to hold the initiative.
He focused his mind, condensing the fused power into a powerful energy wave, and shot it toward the Black-robed figure.
Wherever the energy wave passed, the Dark Domain trembled.
The Black-robed figure felt this powerful energy wave, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
He quickly dodged to the side but was still grazed by the energy wave.
His body swayed slightly, and a flash of anger crossed his eyes.
"You have completely angered me!" He roared, and the Dark Power throughout his body erupted instantly, forming a massive black vortex that swept toward Hode and the others.
Hode and the others were constrained by the powerful suction of the black vortex, their bodies moving involuntarily toward the center of the vortex.
They desperately activated their abilities, trying to resist the suction, but with little effect.
"This won't do; if this continues, we will all be sucked in!" Hode felt extremely anxious.
He looked at Natasha, Diana, and Felicia beside him, his eyes full of worry.
Just then, Natasha suddenly thought of something.
She said loudly to Hode: "Hode, do you remember that feeling of telepathic connection when we were together? Perhaps we can use that power again."
Hode's heart stirred upon hearing Natasha's words.
He closed his eyes and recalled the little moments spent with Natasha, Diana, and Felicia; those beautiful memories surged into his heart like a tide.
He could feel the mental connection between him and them growing tighter, and a warm and powerful force flowing between them.
"Now!" Hode shouted, and he, Natasha, Diana, and Feliciaexerted their power simultaneously.
They fused the power gained from their telepathic connection with their own power, forming a brilliant light.
The light broke through the suction of the black vortex and shot toward the Black-robed figure.
The Black-robed figure didn't expect Hode and the others to have this move; he didn't have time to dodge and was struck by the light.
He let out a miserable scream, his body knocked flying by the light, and he fell heavily to the ground.
Hode and the others took the opportunity to break free from the black vortex's restraint; they quickly gathered around and surrounded the Black-robed figure.
The Black-robed figure climbed up from the ground; he looked at Hode and the others, his eyes filled with resentment.
"Do you think you can defeat me this way? Too naive!" He suddenly looked up and roared, his body beginning to undergo strange changes.
His body gradually grew larger, his skin turned pitch black like ink, sharp bone spurs grew on his body, and his eyes flashed with red light.
"This is Dark Demonization!" Diana exclaimed.
She knew that Dark Demonization was an extremely powerful dark magic; once cast, the caster's power would be greatly enhanced, but at the same time, they would lose their sanity.
After the Black-robed figure's demonization, his strength greatly increased.
He waved his huge claws and lunged at Hode and the others.
His speed was extremely fast, and his strength became incomparably powerful; every attack carried destructive force.
Hode and the others dared not be careless; they joined forces again to confront the Black-robed figure.
Natasha relied on her agility to circle around the Black-robed figure, searching for his weaknesses; Diana wielded the Lasso of Truth to engage the Black-robed figure head-on; Felicia launched sneak attacks from the darkness to interfere with the Black-robed figure's movements; and Hode utilized his fused power to continuously launch long-range attacks.
The battle entered a white-hot stage, and the entire Dark Domain trembled during this fierce fight.
Although Hode and the others cooperated tacitly, the Black-robed figure's strength after demonization was too great, and they were gradually unable to resist.
"This is not a solution; we must find his weakness." Hodepondered secretly in his heart.
While fighting, he carefully observed the Black-robed figure's movements.
Suddenly, he discovered that after each attack, the Black-robed figure would have a brief pause.
"Now!" Hode seized the opportunity; at the moment of the pause after the Black-robed figure launched another attack, he concentrated all his power and shot a powerful energy beam toward the Black-robed figure's heart.
Natasha, Diana, and Felicia also seized this opportunity; they launched their attacks simultaneously and rushed toward the Black-robed figure.
The Black-robed figure didn't expect Hode and the others to seize this opportunity to launch an attack; he didn't have time to dodge and was struck in the heart by Hode's energy beam.
At the same time, Natasha's daggers, Diana's Lasso of Truth, and Felicia's shadow attacks also landed on him.
The Black-robed figure let out a painful roar, and his body began to gradually collapse.
He looked at Hode and the others, his eyes filled with unwillingness.
"You... you will not succeed... The power of the Dark Universe... will not disappear just like this..." After saying this, his body turned into a cloud of black smoke and disappeared into the Dark Domain.
Hode and the others breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this crisis had finally been resolved.
However, just when they had relaxed their vigilance, suddenly, a low roaring sound echoed in the Dark Domain.
The entire Dark Domain began to shake violently, and black cracks spread throughout the space.
An even more terrifying aura radiated from the cracks, making one shudder.
"What is going on?" Natasha asked in terror.
Hode looked at the cracks spreading all around, and a strong sense of unease surged in his heart. He felt an unprecedentedly powerful force gushing out from the cracks; this force far exceeded that of the Black-robed figure, and even surpassed any danger they had faced before.
Just then, a huge figure slowly emerged from the cracks. The figure exuded an endless aura of darkness, as if it were the master of the dark Universe. It had no specific form, just a mass of constantly twisting Dark Energy.
"Foolish humans, do you think you can stop me just by defeating my messenger?" A low and majestic voice came from the dark figure, filled with endless anger and murderous intent.
Hode and the others looked at the huge dark figure, their hearts filled with despair. They knew that this time, they were facing a true catastrophe...
Chapter 489: He Decided to Seize This Opportunity and Launch a Fatal Blow
Hode stared at the huge dark figure slowly emerging, his throat feeling as if it were being gripped by an invisible hand, making breathing difficult. He could feel all the blood in his body freezing at that moment, and the terrifying aura emanating from the dark figure, like a cold tide, instantly engulfed him.
"Natasha, Diana, Felicia, what... what exactly is this thing?" Hode's voice trembled, his eyes full of terror and despair. He clenched his fists tightly, trying to calm himself down, but his body was uncontrollably trembling slightly.
Natasha's face had also turned very pale, and her sharp eyes were now filled with worry. "Hode, I don't know either, but I can feel that the power of this thing is far beyond our imagination. We... we might really be done for." Her voice was low and hoarse, and she subconsciously gripped the dagger in her hand tighter.
Diana gripped the Lasso of Truth tightly, and the golden light on the lasso became somewhat dimmed under the pressure of this dark aura. She took a deep breath, trying to keep herself calm. "No matter what it is, we cannot give up. We are superheroes, and our mission is to protect this World, even if it costs us our lives." Her eyes revealed a sense of determination and resolve, as if she were cheering herself and her teammates on.
Felicia was hiding in the darkness, her figure appearing even more blurred under this terrifying aura. She whispered, "Hode, I think we need to find a way. This thing is too powerful; if we fight it head-on, we are definitely no match for it." Her voice carried a hint of anxiety and helplessness.
Hode nodded, his brain racing as he tried to find a glimmer of hope. He recalled the bits and pieces of time spent with the three female superheroes; those beautiful memories were like a glimmer of dawn in the darkness, causing a warm power to surge in his heart. He closed his eyes, feeling the sense of mental connection with them, and that warm and powerful energy flowed between them once again.
"Natasha, Diana, Felicia, let's try the mental connection again. Perhaps we can use this power to find a way to defeat it," Hode said loudly, his voice filled with hope.
The three female superheroes nodded, closed their eyes, and immersed themselves in the feeling of mental connection with Hode. For a moment, their consciousnesses seemed to merge, forming a powerful mental network. In this network, they could clearly perceive each other's thoughts and feelings, and could also perceive everything around them more keenly.
Just then, the huge dark figure suddenly let out a roar, and waves of black energy surged out from its body, sweeping towards Hode and the others. Wherever the energy waves passed, space was torn apart, emitting sharp sounds.
"Everyone, be careful!" Hode shouted. He quickly opened his eyes, focused his mind, and condensed the merged power into a shield, blocking it in front of everyone. Natasha, Diana, and Felicia also activated their abilities, joining Hode in reinforcing the shield.
The black energy waves slammed into the shield, producing a deafening roar. The shield trembled violently under the impact of the energy waves, as if it would shatter at any moment. Hode and the others gritted their teeth, trying their best to maintain the stability of the shield.
"This won't work; our power simply cannot compete with it," Diana said anxiously, her forehead already covered in sweat.
Hode was also very anxious. While maintaining the shield, he thought about countermeasures. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck him; he remembered the Avengers and the Justice League. He recalled that in previous battles, they had fought side by side, confronting powerful enemies together.
"Natasha, Diana, Felicia, let's contact the Avengers and the Justice League. Perhaps they can help us find a way to defeat this thing," Hode said loudly.
Natasha nodded, quickly pulling out a communicator to contact the Avengers. Diana used her divine power to try to contact the Justice League. Felicia continued to hide in the darkness, vigilantly observing the movements of the dark figure.
Soon, the voices of the Avengers and the Justice Leaguecame through the communicator. After learning about the situation of Hode and the others, they all indicated that they would come to support as soon as possible.
However, the huge dark figure did not seem to intend to give them time to wait for reinforcements. It let out another roar, increasing the output of the energy waves. Under the more violent impact, the shield finally could not bear the weight and shattered.
Hode and the others were sent flying by the powerful impact and fell heavily to the ground. They struggled to get up, blood spilling from the corners of their mouths. The huge dark figure walked slowly towards them; with every step it took, the ground shook violently.
"It's over, everything is over." Hode's heart was filled with despair. He looked at Natasha, Diana, and Felicia beside him, his eyes full of guilt. "I'm sorry, I've implicated you all."
Natasha shook her head. Enduring the pain in her body, she walked to Hode's side and gently took his hand. "Hode, don't say such things. We are partners fighting together; no matter what difficulties we encounter, we will face them together."
Diana and Felicia also walked to Hode's side, their eyes filled with determination and encouragement. "Hode, we won't give up. As long as we have a breath left, we will fight to the end."
Hode looked at the three female superheroes beside him, and a warm current surged in his heart. He pulled himself together and clenched his fists. "That's right, we cannot give up. Even if we die, we must die with dignity."
Just then, a whistling sound suddenly came from the sky. The members of the Avengers and the Justice League had finally arrived. They jumped down from their aircraft and landed beside Hode and the others.
"Hode, are you all okay?" Iron Man Tony Stark asked with concern.
Hode shook his head. Looking at the members of the Avengers and the Justice League in front of him, his heart was filled with gratitude. "Thank you for coming. However, this thing is too powerful; we must find a way to defeat it together."
Batman Bruce Wayne nodded. He carefully observed the huge dark figure, his eyes revealing a hint of wisdom. "We need to formulate a detailed plan. The power of this thing is too great; we cannot attack blindly."
Everyone nodded and began to discuss the battle plan. The huge dark figure stood there quietly, as if waiting for their move.
After a heated discussion, everyone finally formulated a battle plan. They decided to use their respective superpowers to attack the dark figure from different directions, looking for its weaknesses.
0 --- Seeking flowers ---
The battle started again. The members of the Avengersand the Justice League unleashed their superpowers and rushed towards the dark figure. Hode and the others also pulled themselves together and joined the battle.
Iron Man Tony Stark controlled his War Armor, firing beams of laser; Captain America Steve Rogers brandished his shield, engaging the dark figure head-on; Wonder Woman Diana brandished the Lasso of Truth again, trying to bind the dark figure; Superman Clark Kent relied on his super strength to constantly slam into the dark figure.
Hode and the others were not idle either; they cooperated closely with the members of the Avengers and the Justice League, constantly looking for flaws in the dark figure. Natasha, with her agile movements, moved around the dark figure, looking for opportunities to attack; Diana used her divine power to provide support for her teammates; Felicia launched surprise attacks from the darkness, disrupting the dark figure's movements; Hode used the merged power to continuously launch long-range attacks.
...
However, the huge dark figure was simply too powerful. It easily withstood everyone's attacks and launched a counterattack. Waves of black energy surged from its body, sweeping towards everyone.
Everyone dodged the energy wave attacks, but quite a few people were still hit and injured. The battle fell into a stalemate, and both sides were locked in a bitter struggle.
Hode was very anxious in his heart; he knew that this could not go on. While fighting, he thought about countermeasures. Suddenly, he discovered that the dark figure would have a brief pause after each attack. Moreover, this pause time seemed to be a bit longer than the pause time after the Black-robed figure was demonized.
"Perhaps this is its weakness," Hode thought to himself. He decided to seize this opportunity and launch a fatal blow.
He quietly communicated with Natasha, Diana, and Felicia, telling them his plan. The three female superheroes nodded, indicating their agreement.
Just at the moment of the pause after the dark figure launched another attack, Hode shouted, "Now!" He concentrated all his power and shot a powerful energy beam towards the dark figure's heart area.
Natasha, Diana, and Felicia also seized this opportunity, launching their attacks simultaneously and rushing towards the dark figure.
The members of the Avengers and the Justice League also increased the intensity of their attacks, trying to coordinate with the actions of Hode and the others. For a moment, the entire battlefield was radiant, with various energies intertwined, forming a spectacular scene.
The dark figure did not expect Hode and the others to seize this opportunity to launch an attack; it was too late to dodge and was hit by Hode's energy beam in the heart area. At the same time, Natasha's dagger, Diana's Lasso of Truth, and Felicia's shadow attack also landed on its body.
The dark figure let out a painful roar, and its body began to tremble violently. Everyone was overjoyed, thinking they had finally found a way to defeat it. However, just then, the dark figure's body suddenly erupted with an even more terrifying Dark Power. This power instantly sent everyone flying, and the entire dark realm was shrouded by this power...
Chapter 490: Everyone Was Overjoyed
After being sent flying by that terrifying Dark Power, Hodefell heavily to the ground, feeling as if his internal organs had been displaced. His throat tasted sweet, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. He struggled to get up, but found that all the bones in his body seemed to have fallen apart; he simply couldn't muster any strength.
"Hode!" Natasha, Diana, and Felicia called his name anxiously and ran towards him. They helped Hode up, their eyes full of worry and concern.
"Hode, how are you?" Natasha asked anxiously, her eyes shimmering with tears.
Hode endured the severe pain in his body, forced a smile, and said, "I'm fine, just a little injured." He looked at the three female superheroes in front of him, and a warm current surged in his heart. At this life-and-death moment, they still stood by his side, never leaving him, which made him even more determined to protect them.
Diana frowned, looking at the terrifying power that was still permeating the dark realm, and said, "This thing is even more powerful than we imagined. We must find a way to find its weakness, otherwise we will all die here."
Felicia clenched her fists tightly, her eyes revealing a sense of determination and resolve. "We cannot sit and wait for 705u.com-53 Reading Club; even if it costs me my life, I will protect Hode and everyone."
Hode looked at them, his heart filled with emotion. He knew that at this critical moment, he must pull himself together and lead everyone to find a way to defeat the dark figure. He closed his eyes, focused his mind, and tried to re-establish a connection with the previously merged power.
Just then, some blurry images suddenly appeared in his mind. In the images, he saw a faint light flickering in the core area of the dark figure; that light seemed to hide some kind of secret. Hode's heart stirred; he realized that this might be where the dark figure's weakness lay.
Chapter 341
"Natasha, Diana, Felicia, I think I have found its weak point." Hode opened his eyes and said excitedly.
The three female superheroes looked at him, their eyes full of anticipation. "Where?" Natasha asked eagerly.
Hode pointed towards the Dark Figure and said: "At its core, there is a faint glimmer; that might be its weak point."
Diana nodded and said: "Alright, then we will focus our power to attack its core."
However, just as they were preparing to attack, the members of the Avengers and the Justice League fell into trouble. The terrifying power erupting from the Dark Figure made it hard for them to get close, and many were injured.
"This won't do; we can't get close to it at all." Iron Man Tony Stark said anxiously.
Batman Bruce Wayne frowned, thinking of a countermeasure. "We need to find a way to distract it and create an opportunity for Hode and the others to attack."
Hode watched the Avengers and Justice League members in trouble, feeling very anxious. He knew they had to act quickly, or everyone would die here.
"Natasha, Diana, Felicia, we can't wait any longer. I will go attract its attention, and you find a chance to attack its core." Hode said firmly.
The three female superheroes shook their heads, expressing their opposition. "No, that is too dangerous." Natasha said.
Hode looked at them, his eyes full of firmness and tenderness. "Trust me, I have a way. Besides, this is our only chance."
With Hode's insistence, the three female superheroes finally agreed to his plan. Hode took a deep breath, focused his mind, and unleashed all of his fused power. He turned into a beam of light and rushed towards the Dark Figure.
The Dark Figure sensed Hode's attack and let out a roar, sending waves of black energy towards him. Hode dodged the energy waves flexibly while continuously attacking, trying to attract the Dark Figure's attention.
Under Hode's attack, the Dark Figure's attention was indeed drawn. It gave up attacking the members of the Avengers and Justice League and turned its target to Hode.
"Now!" Hode shouted.
Natasha, Diana, and Felicia seized the opportunity and launched their attacks. Natasha turned into a black shadow, appearing instantly behind the Dark Figure, and thrust her dagger towards its core. Diana swung her Lasso of Truth, wrapping it around the Dark Figure's core. Feliciahid in the darkness, looking for a chance to deliver a fatal blow.
However, just as their attacks were about to hit, the Dark Figure suddenly sensed their intentions. It let out a roar, and a layer of black shield appeared around its body, blocking all their attacks.
"Oh no, it has a shield." Natasha said anxiously.
Hode's heart sank; he knew the situation had become more critical. While dodging the Dark Figure's attacks, he thought of a countermeasure. Just then, he suddenly remembered the setting where he would gain different abilities by dating different female superheroes and increasing intimacy.
He felt a stir in his heart and thought to himself: "If I increase intimacy with Natasha, Diana, and Felicia at the same time, will I gain even more powerful strength?"
Thinking of this, Hode did not hesitate. He focused his mind, trying to establish a deeper connection with the three female superheroes. Through his efforts, the Telepathy between him and Natasha, Diana, and Feliciabecame stronger.
Just then, a mysterious power surged from the four of them and fused together. This power was strong and mysterious, as if it contained endless strength.
The Dark Figure sensed the threat of this mysterious power and let out a terrified roar. It increased the intensity of its attacks, trying to eliminate Hode and the others before they could attack.
However, Hode and the others were ready. The four of them attacked simultaneously, condensing the fused mysterious power into a huge beam of energy, firing it towards the Dark Figure's core.
Wherever the energy beam passed, space was torn apart, emitting sharp noises. The Dark Figure wanted to dodge, but it was too late. The energy beam hit its core heavily, emitting a deafening roar.
The Dark Figure's body began to shake violently, and its shield shattered instantly under the Impact of the energy beam. Everyone was overjoyed, thinking they had finally defeated the Dark Figure...
However, just at this moment, the Dark Figure's body suddenly erupted with an even more terrifying Dark Power. This power instantly sent Hode and the others flying, and the entire Dark World was shrouded by this power.
Hode and the others were knocked unconscious by the powerful Impact. When they woke up again, they found themselves in a strange place. It was desolate here, permeated with an aura of Death.
"Where is this?" Hode struggled to get up, looking at the surrounding environment, his heart full of doubts.
Natasha, Diana, and Felicia also woke up one after another. They looked at their surroundings, their eyes full of horror. "Why are we here?"
Just then, a mysterious voice sounded in their ears. "Welcome to the Dark Abyss; this is the end of darkness, and it is also your end."
Everyone was shocked and looked towards the direction from which the voice came. They saw a huge black figure slowly emerge, emitting a Dark Power even more terrifying than before.
"Did you think you defeated me? How naive. I am but a messenger of the Dark Abyss; the true Dark Power is yet to come." The black figure sneered.
Hode looked at the black figure before him, his heart filled with anger and unwillingness. "We won't give up. No matter what difficulties we encounter, we will fight to the end."
The black figure let out a mocking laugh. "You? In front of the Dark Abyss, you are as small as ants."
Saying this, the black figure waved its hand, and waves of black energy surged towards Hode and the others. Hodeand the others dodged the attacks while preparing to counterattack.
However, they quickly discovered that the Dark Power here was even stronger than before. Their attacks seemed insignificant in the face of the Dark Power and could not cause any damage to the black figure.
The battle fell into a desperate situation, and Hode and the others were forced to retreat by the black figure's attacks. Their bodies had reached their limits; if this continued, they would all die here.
Just then, Hode suddenly felt a warm power surge from the bottom of his heart. He looked at Natasha, Diana, and Felicia beside him, his heart filled with love. He knew this was the power of their love, the power he gained by increasing intimacy with them.
"Natasha, Diana, Felicia, we cannot give up. Let us fuse our powers again and fight the Dark Abyss to the end." Hodeshouted.
The three female superheroes nodded, their eyes full of firmness and trust. They held Hode's hands tightly, fusing their powers together.
A powerful light bloomed from them, illuminating the entire Dark Abyss. The black figure sensed the threat of this power and let out a terrified roar.
However, just as Hode and the others were prepared to attack, the black figure suddenly cast a mysterious magic. A black vortex appeared before them, and a powerful suction force pulled them towards it.
"No!" Hode and the others shouted in horror, their bodies flying uncontrollably towards the vortex...
Chapter 491: Every action of yours makes my heart flutter
Hode struggled desperately in the suction of the vortex; his body felt as if it were being torn apart by countless invisible hands, and sharp pain surged like a tide. He looked at Natasha, Diana, and Felicia beside him; they were also struggling against this powerful suction, but the pulling force of the vortex was getting stronger.
"Hode, what should we do?" Natasha shouted, her voice carrying a hint of panic, but her eyes remained firm.
Hode gritted his teeth, veins bulging on his forehead. He focused his mind, trying to establish a deeper connection with the three female superheroes again. He could feel that at this life-and-Death moment, the power of their love might be their only hope.
"Natasha, Diana, Felicia, believe in the love between us; it can bring us power." Hode said loudly, his voice full of encouragement.
The three female superheroes nodded, holding Hode's hands tightly, passing their power to him without reservation. Just then, a mysterious power surged from the four of them, forming a pale golden shield, temporarily resisting the suction of the vortex.
The black figure saw this scene and let out an angry roar. "Do you think you can escape like this? In the Dark Abyss, all struggles are in vain."
Saying this, the black figure waved its hands, and the suction of the vortex instantly increased several times. The pale golden shield began to crack, as if it would shatter at any moment.
Hode's heart tightened. He knew they had to find a way to break this situation as soon as possible. He closed his eyes and focused, trying to recall every bit of time he spent with each female superhero to increase intimacy and gain stronger power.
He remembered the days he carried out missions with Natasha; Natasha's wit, bravery, and decisiveness deeply fascinated him. They supported and trusted each other in one dangerous mission after another, and their feelings warmed up unknowingly.
"Natasha, do you remember when we fought side by side in that secret mission? Every look of yours, every action of yours, makes my heart flutter." Hode said silently in his heart.
As the memories deepened, Hode felt the intimacy between him and Natasha continuously increasing, and a new power surged from their joined hands into his body.
Then, he remembered his adventures with Diana in the mythical World. Diana's kindness, justice, and nobility made him feel unprecedented warmth. They faced powerful enemies together and guarded the peace of the World together; their feelings grew deeper in battle.
"Diana, you are like a goddess, using your love and power to light up the path I walk. Every time I fight side by side with you, I feel incredibly honored." A warm current surged in Hode's heart.
Similarly, a powerful force was transmitted from Diana to Hode, making him feel that his power had increased a bit more.
Finally, he remembered meeting Felicia in the darkness. Felicia's mystery, independence, and resilience made him fall for her. They accompanied and supported each other in the darkness, spending many difficult times together.
"Felicia, you are that beam of light for me in the darkness; your company makes me feel the beauty of life. No matter what difficulties we encounter, I am willing to face them with you." Hode's heart was filled with love.
A mysterious and powerful force emanated from Felicia, merging with the previous two forces to form an unprecedentedly powerful strength.
Hode opened his eyes, his gaze flashing with determination. He let out a loud shout, unleashing the full extent of this fused power.
The pale golden shield instantly became more solid and began to advance toward the center of the vortex.
The black figure saw this and a look of horror appeared on its face. "This... this is impossible. How could you possibly possess such powerful strength?"
Hode sneered and said, "This is the power of love; it is countless times stronger than your Dark Power."
As he spoke, the four of them controlled the shield and charged toward the black figure.
The black figure attempted to cast magic to defend itself, but in the face of the fused, powerful force, its magicappeared so vulnerable.
The shield slammed fiercely into the black figure, emitting a deafening roar.
Cracks began to appear on the body of the black figure, and its Dark Energy began to dissipate.
"No... I will not be defeated just like this." The black figure let out a desperate roar, exerting all its strength to break free from the shackles of the shield.
Hode and the others increased their power output, knowing this was their last chance. If the black figure escaped, they would face even more terrifying consequences.
Just as the two sides were deadlocked, Hode suddenly sensed a familiar power coming from afar. He looked up and saw that the members of the Avengers and the Justice League were arriving one after another.
"Hode, we've come to help you." Iron Man Tony Starkshouted, his War Armor gleaming with a dazzling light.
Batman Bruce Wayne also said, "We won't let you face the danger alone."
With that, the members of the Avengers and the Justice League launched their attacks, joining Hode and the others in confronting the black figure.
Under their combined attacks, the black figure could no longer hold on; its body exploded with a roar, turning into a cloud of black smoke.
However, just when everyone thought the danger had been resolved, that cloud of black smoke suddenly began to condense, forming an even larger black figure.
The Dark Energy emanating from this black figure was even more terrifying than before, as if the entire Dark Abyss was trembling because of its appearance.
"Do you think that by defeating me you can save the World? How naive. This is just the beginning; the true darkness is yet to come." The giant black figure sneered.
Hode and the others looked at the giant black figure before them, their hearts filled with despair. They had given their all, yet they still couldn't completely defeat this terrifying enemy.
Just then, Hode suddenly felt his body beginning to change. A layer of colorful light appeared around him, and his eyes became deep and mysterious.
"This... what is going on?" Hode looked at his own body in surprise, his heart filled with confusion.
Natasha, Diana, and Felicia also looked at Hode, their eyes filled with surprise and delight. "Hode, you... you seem to have become even more powerful."
Hode's heart stirred; he seemed to understand something. Perhaps it was because his intimacy with the three female superheroes had reached an unprecedented height, or perhaps it was because he had comprehended some kind of mysterious power during the battle against the darkness. In any case, he had gained a new ability.
"Regardless, this is our last chance. Let us fight this Dark Abyss to the Death together." Hode said loudly, his voice filled with firmness and determination.
The three female superheroes and the members of the Avengers and the Justice League nodded one after another, gathering tightly around Hode, ready to face the final battle.
The giant black figure looked at Hode and the others and let out a mocking laugh. "Just you? In the face of true Dark Power, all your struggles are futile."
As it spoke, the giant black figure waved its hand, and waves of black energy surged toward Hode and the others. Hode and his group dodged the energy wave attacks while preparing to launch a counterattack.
The battle erupted once again. This time, relying on his newly acquired ability, Hode became the core of the fight. At times he transformed into a beam of light, weaving through the waves of Dark Energy; at other times, he cast mysterious magic to block the black figure's attacks.
Natasha, Diana, and Felicia were also fearless, coordinating closely with Hode to unleash their most powerful fighting capabilities. The members of the Avengers and the Justice League also unleashed their ultimate techniques, engaging in a life-or-Death battle with the black figure.
However, the strength of the giant black figure was simply too powerful. Even though Hode and the others gave their all, they still couldn't cause any substantial damage to it. Their bodies had reached their limits; if this continued, they would all die here.
Just then, Hode suddenly felt as if his body was being controlled by a mysterious force. His consciousness began to blur, and his body flew uncontrollably toward the giant black figure...
Chapter 492: I Am Willing to Give Everything
Hode was swept by that mysterious force toward the giant black figure, his heart filled with terror and unwillingness. He struggled desperately, trying to regain control of his body, but the force was too powerful, and he could only watch helplessly as he got closer and closer to the black figure.
"Hode!" Natasha shouted anxiously, her eyes filled with worry and fear. She wanted to rush over to save Hode, but was held back by Diana.
"Natasha, don't be impulsive; we need to think of a plan first." Diana said calmly, though her voice also revealed a trace of tension.
Felicia stared fixedly at Hode, her eyes flashing with determination. "We won't let anything happen to him; there must be a way."
By now, Hode had arrived in front of the giant black figure. The black figure let out a burst of wild laughter, the sound like a demon from hell. "Haha, do you think you can resist me? Just obediently become a part of my power."
As it spoke, the black figure extended its giant palm, reaching toward Hode. Hode felt as if his body were bound by invisible shackles, unable to move. Just as the black figure's palm was about to touch him, Hode suddenly felt an unprecedented power surge within his body.
This power was completely different from the power he had gained earlier through building intimacy with the three female superheroes; it was more violent, more mysterious. Hode felt his consciousness gradually recovering, and he discovered that he was actually able to communicate with this power.
"Who are you? Why are you controlling me?" Hode asked in his mind.
A low and ancient voice resounded in his mind: "I am the Ancient Deity sealed within your body. Sensing the despair in your heart and your desire for power, I have temporarily awakened to lend you a hand."
Hode was overjoyed; he knew he was saved. "Then please help me defeat this black figure and save the World."
The Ancient Deity was silent for a moment before saying, "I can help you, but you must pay a price. Once you use my power, your body will bear a huge burden, and you may even lose your life."
Hode did not hesitate in the slightest, saying firmly, "I am not afraid. As long as I can save the World and protect the ones I love, I am willing to give everything."
The Ancient Deity let out a sigh of admiration: "Good, you have courage. Then let me see your determination."
As the Ancient Deity's voice faded, a dazzling light erupted around Hode's body. His eyes turned gold, and his hair became like burning flames. He felt his power constantly expanding, as if he could destroy everything.
The giant black figure sensed the powerful energy radiating from Hode, and a trace of horror appeared on its face. "This... what is this power? How could you possibly possess such powerful strength?"
Hode sneered and said, "This is the power of love, the power of protection—it is something you will never understand."
As he spoke, Hode waved his hands, and waves of golden energy shot toward the giant black figure. The black figure hurriedly cast magic to defend itself, but in the face of Hode's powerful strength, its magic was like paper—instantly shattered.
The energy waves struck the body of the black figure, emitting a violent explosion. The black figure let out a scream, and its body began to sway.
"No... this is impossible." The black figure roared in unwillingness, condensing its power once again to launch an attack on Hode.
This time, the black figure released a huge Dark Energy Vortex, attempting to swallow Hode. Hode was unhurried; he formed hand seals and chanted. A huge golden shield appeared in front of him, blocking the attack of the Dark Energy Vortex.
Meanwhile, the members of the Avengers and the Justice League took the opportunity to launch their attacks. Iron Man Tony Stark fired beams of laser light, Batman Bruce Wayne brandished the Batarangs in his hands, and the other members also unleashed their ultimate techniques.
Under their combined attacks, the giant black figure gradually began to falter. Cracks started to appear on its body, and its Dark Energy was constantly dissipating.
However, just when everyone thought victory was in sight, the black figure suddenly let out an eerie laugh. "Do you think you've defeated me just like this? How naive. I will make you pay the price."
As it spoke, the body of the black figure began to expand, as if it were about to explode. Hode was shocked; he realized that the black figure intended to self-destruct and take them down with it.
"Everyone look out, it's going to self-destruct!" Hodeshouted.
Everyone scrambled to dodge, but the Impact produced by the black figure's self-destruction was too powerful, blowing them all away. Hode felt as if his body had been hit by a speeding train; his internal organs felt as though they had been shifted out of place.
He struggled to climb to his feet, looking at the scene of devastation before him, his heart filled with anger and unwillingness. He could not give up just like this; he had to defeat the black figure and save the World.
Just as Hode was preparing to launch another attack, he suddenly felt his body beginning to weaken. Only then did he remember the words of the Ancient Deity: using its power would come with a huge price.
"Am I really going to die here?" Hode's heart was filled with despair.
But just then, he saw Natasha, Diana, and Felicia by his side. Although they were also injured, they still stood firmly by his side, their eyes filled with trust and support for him.
"No, I cannot give up. For them, for this World, I must persevere." A powerful conviction surged in Hode's heart.
Chapter 342
He focused his mind again, attempting to communicate with the Ancient Deity within him. "My Lord Ancient Deity, please grant me power once more, let me defeat this enemy or..."
The voice of the Ancient Deity echoed in his mind: "You have already used too much power. If you continue like this, your body will collapse."
Hode said firmly: "I do not care. As long as I can save the World, I am willing to give everything."
The Ancient Deity was silent for a moment, then said: "Very well, since you are so determined, I will help you one last time. But this is the final time; after this, you must fight using your own strength."
As it spoke, the Ancient Deity injected power into Hode's body once again. Hode felt his strength recover "705u.com-53 Reading Club" a little. He stood up, preparing for the final showdown against the black figure.
However, when he raised his head, he discovered the black figure had vanished. In its place was a huge black hole, radiating an endless aura of darkness, as if it wanted to swallow the entire World.
"What is this?" Hode was filled with confusion.
Just then, a mysterious voice came from the black hole. "Welcome to the core of the Dark Abyss. You ants, today is your doomsday."
As the voice faded, waves of black tentacles surged from the black hole, sweeping toward Hode and the others. Hode and his companions dodged the attacks, preparing to launch a counterattack.
The battle erupted again. This time, they faced an even more terrifying enemy. Hode knew this would be an unprecedentedly difficult battle, but he did not retreat in the slightest. He clenched his fists tightly, a firm light shining in his eyes, ready to face the final challenge...
Chapter 493: Now is the time, everyone push harder
Hode watched the black tentacles surging like a tidal wave, a sense of determination welling up in his heart. He knew deeply that there was no retreat now; only by fighting to the death could he protect everything behind him.
"Natasha, Diana, Felicia, everyone be careful of these tentacles, they look very strange." Hode loudly reminded his companions, while circulating the mysterious power within him. Golden light flickered around him, as if draping him in an indestructible suit of armor.
Natasha's gaze was sharp, her specialized dagger weaving flexibly between the tentacles, each swing precisely severing one. "Hode, don't be distracted, focus your mind on dealing with them." Her voice was calm and firm, bringing Hode a sense of peace.
Diana swung the Lasso of Truth; wherever it passed, tentacles were entangled and severed. She looked at Hodewith a firm gaze, "Hode, we will definitely overcome this difficulty, do not be afraid."
Felicia was no less impressive; her form leaped nimbly between the tentacles, the Talon in her hands flashing with cold light. "Hode, with us here, we won't let anything happen to you."
Hode felt a warmth in his heart; he felt the trust and support of his companions, which strengthened his resolve to fight. He took a deep breath, quickly forming seals with his hands, and streams of golden energy waves shot from his hands, sweeping toward the black tentacles. Wherever the energy waves passed, the tentacles were blown to pieces, and the aura of darkness dissipated significantly.
However, the black tentacles seemed endless, continuously surging from the black hole. The other members of the Avengers and the Justice League were also resisting with all their might, but the situation remained extremely critical.
"Tony, your laser beams don't seem to be very effective against these tentacles, try changing the attack frequency." Hode shouted to Iron Man Tony Stark not far away.
Tony Stark nodded, adjusted the frequency of the laser beams, and streams of finer, faster laser beams shot toward the tentacles, indeed achieving some results.
"Bruce, your Batarangs can also come in handy, pay attention to attacking the joint areas of the tentacles." Hode said to Batman Bruce Wayne again.
Bruce Wayne nodded, and the Batarangs in his hands shot out like lightning, accurately striking the joints of the tentacles, making their movements sluggish.
Under the joint attack of everyone, the offensive of the black tentacles weakened slightly. But just then, a low roar suddenly came from the black hole, and an even more powerful Dark Power surged out.
Hode was shocked; he felt this Dark Power was even more powerful than the previous black figure. "Everyone be careful, a stronger enemy is about to appear." He shouted loudly.
As the Dark Power surged, a huge Black Monster slowly emerged from the black hole. It was massive, its entire body radiating a nauseating aura of darkness, and a pair of blood-red eyes flashed with evil light.
"You ants, daring to resist me, today is your doomsday." The Black Monster let out a deafening roar, the sound seemingly ready to shatter the entire World.
Hode clenched his fists tightly, a firm light shining in his eyes. "No matter what monster you are, we will not let you succeed."
The Black Monster sneered, stretched out its huge palm, and swiped toward the group. Hode and the others dodged, but the Black Monster's palm seemed to have a huge suction force, making it somewhat difficult for them to break free.
"Hode, what should we do? This monster's power is too strong." Natasha asked anxiously.
Hode was also quickly thinking of countermeasures. He knew that with their current strength, it was difficult to confront the Black Monster head-on. He had to find a way to locate the Black Monster's weakness and then deliver a fatal blow.
Just then, Hode suddenly felt the power of the Ancient Deity within him surging again. His heart stirred; could the Ancient Deity have new instructions?
"Hode, this Black Monster is formed from the core power of the Dark Abyss; its weakness is in its heart area. But that area is protected by a layer of strong Dark Power shield; you need to concentrate all your power to break it." The Ancient Deity's voice echoed in Hode's mind.
Hode was overjoyed and immediately told his companions the news. "Everyone listen to me, this monster's weakness is in its heart area, but it is protected by a Dark Powershield. We need to attack together, break the shield, and then deliver a fatal blow."
Everyone nodded, indicating they understood. They began to adjust their tactics, preparing to launch the final attack on the Black Monster.
Hode again circulated the power within him, the golden light shining to the extreme on his body. He took a deep breath and shouted: "Everyone get ready, let's attack together."
As Hode's voice fell, the members of the Avengers and the Justice League unleashed their strongest ultimate moves. Iron Man Tony "705u.com-53 Reading Club" Stark fired a huge laser beam, Batman Bruce Wayne threw a series of Batarangs, and Natasha, Diana, and Felicia also launched their attacks simultaneously.
Hode also waved his hands, streams of golden energy waves shooting toward the Black Monster's heart area. Under the joint attack of everyone, the Black Monster's Dark Power shield began to show cracks.
The Black Monster felt the threat; it let out an angry roar, increasing the output of its Dark Power in an attempt to resist everyone's attack. But its efforts were clearly in vain, as the cracks on the Dark Power shield grew larger and larger.
"Now is the time, everyone push harder." Hode shouted loudly.
Everyone increased their attack intensity again, and finally, the Dark Power shield was completely broken. Hodeseized the opportunity, concentrated all his power, transformed into a beam of golden light, and shot toward the Black Monster's heart area.
The golden light instantly pierced through the Black Monster's heart; the Black Monster let out a scream, and its body began to tremble violently. Cracks appeared on its body, and the aura of darkness was continuously dissipating.
"No... This is impossible." The Black Monster roared unwillingly, but it could no longer change its fate.
Just when everyone thought the Black Monster was about to be eliminated, another powerful Dark Power suddenly surged from the black hole, wrapping around the Black Monster's body. The Black Monster's body began to repair rapidly, and its power was also continuously increasing.
"What is going on?" Hode was filled with confusion and fear.
An even more evil voice came from the black hole: "Do you think you can defeat me like this? Too naive. I will make you pay an even more painful price."
As the voice faded, the Black Monster opened its eyes again, its gaze filled with endless anger and evil. It stretched out its huge palm and swiped toward the group again. This time, its power was even more powerful than before, as if it wanted to destroy the entire World.
Hode and the others dodged, but the Black Monster's attack was too fierce, and they were still blown away. Hode felt as if his body was pressed down by a huge mountain, unable to move. He looked at the Black Monstergetting closer and closer, his heart filled with despair.
"Are we really going to die here?" Hode was filled with unwillingness.
But just then, he suddenly felt his body surrounded by a warm power. He turned his head and saw Natasha, Diana, and Felicia. Although they were also seriously injured, they were still holding his hands tightly, their eyes filled with love and trust for him.
"Hode, do not give up, we will fight together." Natasha said softly.
Diana also nodded, "Hode, we will not let you face it alone."
Felicia hugged Hode tightly, "Hode, I love you, no matter what happens, I will be with you."
Hode felt a powerful force welling up in his heart; he knew he could not give up just like that. He held his companions' hands tightly, a firm light shining in his eyes. "Very well, let's fight together, for the ones we love, for this World."
Just then, the Black Monster's palm had already reached above their heads. Hode and the others gathered their final strength, preparing to face this final attack. The battle erupted again. This time, they would face an even more terrifying enemy, but they did not retreat in the slightest, because they knew this was their last hope...
Chapter 494: Natasha, we fight together
Hode felt the warmth from their palms; Natasha, Diana, and Felicia's hands were gripping him tightly, as if they were the last straw to clutch. He looked at the black palm covering the sky above his head, a sense of determination welling up in his heart. He knew deeply that this attack was incomparable to previous ones; if they could not find a way to break it, they would all be buried here.
"Natasha, Diana, Felicia, do you still remember our past vows?" Hode's voice was low and firm, his gaze sweeping over the faces of the three female superheroes.
Natasha's lips curled slightly upward, revealing a determined smile, "Of course I remember, Hode, we agreed to protect this World together."
Diana nodded gently, her eyes revealing firmness, "Hode, no matter when or where, I will fight side by side with you."
Felicia pressed her face against Hode's chest and said softly: "Hode, I love you, I will follow you through life and death."
Hode felt a warmth in his heart; he felt their love and trust, this power surging like a torrent within him. Just then, he suddenly remembered the setting where he could gain different abilities by dating different female superheroes and increasing intimacy. His heart stirred; could it be that at this life-and-death moment, he could unlock a new ability?
The Black Monster's palm drew closer and closer, the immense pressure making them almost unable to breathe. Hode closed his eyes, focusing his mind, attempting to establish a deeper connection with the mysterious power within him. Just then, he seemed to see the figures of Natasha, Diana, and Felicia appear in his mind; their smiles, their gentleness, their bravery, all flashed before his eyes one by one.
Suddenly, a strange power erupted within him. He felt his body become incredibly light, as if he had merged with everything around him. He opened his eyes and discovered he could actually see every fine line on the Black Monster's palm, as well as the flow of energy within its body.
"This is... the ability of the Eye of Insight?" Hode was shocked; he had not expected that at this critical moment, the increase in intimacy with Natasha would allow him to gain such a powerful ability.
With the Eye of Insight, Hode quickly found the Black Monster's weakness. He discovered that although the Black Monster's heart area was protected by a strong Dark Power shield, there was an abnormality in the energy flow at the connection between its palm and its body; that was exactly where its fatal weak point lay.
"Everyone, listen to me, I know how to defeat it," Hodeshouted, "Attack the connection between its palm and its body; that is its weak point."
Hearing this, everyone adjusted their attack direction. Iron Man Tony Stark fired precise laser beams, and the Batarangs thrown by Batman Bruce Wayne shot toward the target like lightning. Natasha, Diana, and Felicia also launched their attacks simultaneously, their weapons carrying immense power as they headed toward the Black Monster's weak point.
The Black Monster felt the threat and let out an angry roar, attempting to retract its palm. But Hode and the others would not give it that chance; they seized the opportunity and intensified their attacks.
Under their combined assault, cracks began to appear at the connection between the Black Monster's palm and its body. The Black Monster struggled in pain, its body trembling violently as the Dark Power dissipated continuously.
"Now, Hode, it's up to you," Natasha shouted.
Hode nodded, concentrating all his strength and channeling the mysterious power within him. Golden light shone upon him, like a scorching Sun. He transformed into a beam of golden light and shot toward the Black Monster's weak point.
The golden light instantly pierced through the Black Monster's weak point. The Black Monster let out a miserable shriek, and its body began to collapse rapidly. Huge cracks appeared all over it, and the Dark Powerreceded like a tide.
However, just when everyone thought victory was in sight, a more terrifying Dark Power suddenly surged out from the black hole. This power, like a raging giant wave, instantly engulfed the Black Monster's body. Under the influence of the Dark Power, the Black Monster's body began to reorganize, its strength even greater than before, as if it were a demon returned from hell.
"No... this is impossible," Hode thought, filled with despair. He had not expected the Black Monster to be able to resurrect, and to become so powerful.
The Black Monster opened its eyes, its gaze filled with endless rage and evil. It stretched out its massive palm and struck at everyone again. This time, its power seemed capable of destroying the entire Universe.
Hode and the others dodged, but the Black Monster's attack was too fierce, and they were still sent flying. Hodefelt as if his body were being torn apart, the pain unbearable. He looked at the approaching Black Monster, his heart filled with unwillingness.
"Are we really going to die here?" Hode wondered, filled with despair.
Just then, he suddenly felt his body enveloped by a gentle force. He turned his head and saw Diana. Diana's eyes were filled with love and determination; she gently stroked Hode's cheek and said, "Hode, don't give up; I will always be with you."
Hode's heart stirred as he recalled every moment with Diana. They had fought side by side, faced difficulties together, and shared happiness. Diana's bravery and kindness fascinated him deeply. Moreover, the increase in their romantic intimacy had granted him a portion of Wonder Woman's divine power.
"Diana, thank you." Hode gripped Diana's hand tightly, his eyes flashing with a determined light. "I won't give up; we will fight together."
Diana nodded, stood up, and stood side by side with Hode. She wielded the Lasso of Truth, which gleamed with a divine light in the darkness. Hode also channeled the Wonder Woman divine power within him; golden light shone upon him, and his strength was greatly enhanced.
The Black Monster's palm struck again, but Hode and Diana were fearless. They launched their attacks simultaneously; the Lasso of Truth and the golden light intertwined, forming a powerful force that met the Black Monster's palm head-on.
The two forces collided, producing a deafening roar. The Black Monster's palm was repelled, and its body swayed slightly.
"It's working." Hode felt a surge of joy in his heart; he saw hope for victory.
However, the Black Monster did not intend to give up. It launched another attack, this time even more fierce, as if to completely annihilate Hode and Diana.
Hode and Diana resisted with all their might, but the Black Monster's power was too great, and they were gradually unable to hold on. Just then, Felicia appeared by their side. Her eyes were filled with concern and worry; she hugged Hode tightly and said, "Hode, are you okay?"
0 --- Seeking Flowers ---
Hode looked at Felicia, a wave of warmth surging in his heart. He recalled the sweet times spent with Felicia; her gentleness and thoughtfulness made him feel the warmth of home. Moreover, the increase in their romantic intimacy had granted him the agility and nimbleness of the Black Cat.
"Felicia, I'm fine." Hode patted Felicia's shoulder gently and said, "We will fight together."
Felicia nodded, her figure flashing as she turned into a black Shadow and charged toward the Black Monster. Her Talon gleamed with a cold light, and every attack caused the Black Monster pain.
Under the combined assault of Hode, Diana, and Felicia, the Black Monster's offensive was curbed once again. But the Black Monster did not give up; it continued to launch attacks, attempting to annihilate them completely.
The battle entered a white-hot stage, and Hode and the others gradually felt overwhelmed. Their bodies were exhausted, and their strength was nearly depleted. Yet, the Black Monster remained incredibly powerful, as if it never knew fatigue.
...
"Are we really going to fail?" Hode thought, filled with unwillingness. He looked at his companions by his side; they were all fighting hard to protect this World. He could not give up; he could not let his companions down.
Just then, Natasha appeared before Hode. Her eyes were filled with determination and trust; she gently held Hode's hand and said, "Hode, let's fight to the end together."
Hode looked at Natasha, a powerful strength surging in his heart. He recalled the tacit cooperation with Natasha; her wisdom and courage always allowed him to turn danger into safety in battle. Moreover, the increase in their romantic intimacy had granted him Black Widow's combat skills and strategic thinking.
"Natasha, we will fight together." Hode gripped Natasha's hand tightly, his eyes flashing with a determined light.
Natasha nodded and stood side by side with Hode. They began to apply their combat skills and strategic thinking to find the Black Monster's weak point. Led by them, the members of the Avengers and the Justice League also rallied, and they launched their attacks once again.
The Black Monster felt unprecedented pressure, and its attacks began to become somewhat chaotic. Hode and the others seized this opportunity and intensified their attacks. Under their combined assault, more cracks began to appear on the Black Monster's body.
However, just when they thought victory was in sight, a mysterious power suddenly surged out from the black hole again. This power seemed to come from another dimension, and it instantly enveloped the Black Monster's body. The Black Monster's body began to undergo strange changes, and its power was enhanced once again.
"This... what kind of power is this?" Hode thought, filled with terror. He had not expected the Black Monster to be able to use this mysterious power to become so strong.
The Black Monster opened its eyes again, its gaze filled with endless evil and a desire for destruction. It stretched out its massive palm and launched its final attack at everyone. This time, its power seemed as if it would turn the entire Universe into nothingness.
Hode and the others gathered their final strength, preparing to meet this last attack. The battle erupted once again; this time, they would face an existence beyond imagination...
Chapter 495: Their Voices Are Like a Beautiful Musical Movement
Hode gritted his teeth, veins bulging on his forehead, his body trembling slightly from the immense pressure. He could clearly feel the terrifying power contained in this strike from the Black Monster, as if the end of the Universewere imminent. Natasha, Diana, and Felicia stood by his side, their eyes equally determined, the energy light on their bodies flickering in the darkness, forming a weak but tenacious line of defense with Hode.
"Hode, we cannot retreat!" Natasha shouted, her voice carrying a hint of resolution. "Even if we die, we must make this monster pay the price!" Her hands gripped her specialized weapon tightly, her gaze locked firmly onto the Black Monster, her eyes revealing fearless courage.
Diana nodded slightly, the Lasso of Truth swaying gently in her hand, emitting a divine and majestic aura. "Hode, I will face this with you." Her voice was soft yet full of power, as if it could bring endless courage. She tilted her body slightly toward Hode, blocking some of the pressure from the Black Monster for him.
Felicia, like an agile black cat from the 705u.com-53 Reading Club, arched her body slightly, ready to attack at any moment. "Hode, I won't let you fight alone." The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, revealing a sly smile, but her eyes were full of seriousness. Her Talonshimmered with a cold light in the darkness, as if waiting for a fatal opportunity.
Hode took a deep breath, feeling the power within him that came from different female superheroes. Natasha's combat skills and strategic thinking, Diana's Wonder Womandivine power, and Felicia's agility and nimbleness—these powers intertwined and merged within him, giving him the confidence to fight the Black Monster.
"Everyone, attack together!" Hode shouted, charging toward the Black Monster first. Golden light shone from him, like a meteor streaking across the dark sky. Natasha, Diana, and Felicia followed closely behind, each unleashing her own abilities to form a powerful combined attack with Hode.
The Black Monster let out an angry roar, and its massive palm struck down again. This time, its attack was even more swift and fierce, as if to destroy everything. Hode and the others nimbly dodged the Black Monster's attacks while searching for its weak point.
During the battle, Hode constantly recalled the little moments spent with Natasha, Diana, and Felicia. The tacit cooperation while executing missions with Natasha, the warm time spent with Diana in the temple, and the sweet dates with Felicia at night—these memories were like warm sunshine, illuminating the dark corners of fear in his heart.
"Natasha, thank you for your companionship all this time." Hode said to Natasha during a break in the battle, his eyes filled with love.
Natasha turned her head, looking at Hode, a gentle smile appearing on her face. "Hode, we are comrades, and even more so, lovers. I will always be by your side." Her voice was soft, yet it filled Hode's heart with strength.
Diana also said from the side, "Hode, no matter what difficulties we encounter, we will face them together." Her eyes revealed determination, as if telling Hode that they would not give up easily.
Felicia blinked mischievously and said, "Hode, you can't leave me alone, okay?" Her smile was like a spring flower, making Hode feel a hint of warmth in his heart.
Encouraged by everyone, Hode's determination to fight became even firmer. He concentrated, channeling the mysterious power within him, attempting to find the Black Monster's weak point. Just then, he suddenly noticed a faint light flickering in the Black Monster's eyes; that light seemed to have some connection to the mysterious power within it.
"Attack its eyes!" Hode shouted, realizing that the Black Monster's eyes might be the key to its control over the mysterious power.
Hearing this, everyone adjusted their attack direction. Iron Man Tony Stark fired high-energy laser beams, shooting toward the Black Monster's eyes. The Batarangs thrown by Batman Bruce Wayne also flew toward the target like lightning. Natasha, Diana, and Felicia also launched their attacks simultaneously, their weapons carrying immense power as they headed toward the Black Monster's eyes.
The Black Monster felt the threat and let out an angry roar, attempting to close its eyes to dodge the attacks. But Hodeand the others would not give it that chance; they seized the opportunity and intensified their attacks.
