Chapter 43: Killing Omni-Man!
"Mark, my son!"
"Ahhhhhhh!!!"
"You dare to kill my son? I will rip your bones out and crush them!"
Omni-Man was once Earth's strongest superhero.
But later, he revealed his true colors.
At his core, he was a conquest fanatic, a war maniac.
The reason he came to Earth was for conquest.
This desolate apocalypse before our eyes was Omni-Man's masterpiece.
He used his own physical body to cleanse the surface, killing every living creature.
He single-handedly created this hell.
Likewise, his strength was far above Mark's.
He was a true ruthless powerhouse capable of beating the entire World to a pulp single-handedly.
Unfortunately, this time he met Leon.
Facing the enraged Omni-Man, Leon's eyes began to turn red.
A moment later, searing Heat Vision shot out directly.
Omni-Man, completely unprepared for this move, was hit directly.
Two beams of Heat Vision struck his chest, the terrifying high temperature instantly burning through flesh and bone.
They pierced straight through his body.
"Ah!!!"
Omni-Man let out a scream, but he was truly ruthless.
He managed to quickly shift his position, dodging the continuous burning of the Heat Vision.
But the cost was that his chest was almost completely torn open, and his heart was injured.
This kind of injury was unbearable, even for Omni-Man.
Under normal circumstances, Omni-Man would definitely avoid the edge of the attack and let his wounds heal.
But at this moment, he was completely blinded by hatred.
Completely disregarding his body that was on the verge of collapse, he roared and charged at Leon.
Omni-Man attacked in fury, his speed reaching its absolute limit.
In almost an instant, he reached over a hundred times the speed of sound.
But such speed was nothing to Leon.
Seizing the timing, Leon also threw a punch to meet Omni-Man head-on.
The next moment, the two powerhouses capable of destroying a Planet single-handedly collided without any bells or whistles.
The absurd power of both sides was unleashed on their opponent without reservation at this moment.
It was like Mars colliding with Earth.
The power that erupted instantly even tore the surrounding space apart.
Only then did the massive sound follow.
At the same time, a terrifying Impact began to spread in all directions with the two of them as the center.
These Impacts were like the most terrifying tsunamis.
Crushing everything in their path.
The surrounding clouds were crushed into molecules, and the ground beneath their feet was constantly collapsing.
Even a high mountain a dozen kilometers away.
After being rolled over by this terrifying Impact.
It turned directly into a depression.
In some places, it was compressed so much that magma even splashed out.
This scene was absolutely the image of an apocalypse.
And this was just the beginning.
...
In the very short time that followed.
Leon and Omni-Man went full speed.
Turning into two points of light, constantly colliding and separating.
And every collision of theirs would tear the Earth apart and rip a gap in the atmosphere.
And because both of their speeds were too fast, the scope of the battle constantly increased.
And this made the scope of the destruction even greater.
In the blink of an eye, half of America's land was wiped clean.
Everything on the ground disappeared, and the entire continental plate seemed to have been pressed down by hundreds of meters.
Some survivors hiding in underground shelters, facing this unwarranted disaster.
Were crushed before they could even groan.
There were also some survivors who possessed flight abilities and came into the air.
Watching the battle between Leon and Omni-Man from afar.
They only had time to say: "To be able to see such a battle between powerhouses, it's worth the price of admission even if I die."
Before being torn apart by the spreading Impact.
This was the combat power of Omni-Man and Leon.
They were like mobile extinction-level disasters.
Wherever they went, they brought destruction.
In the end, this battle lasted for a whole day.
By this time, this apocalyptic Earth had turned into a sea of magma and Fire.
The continental plates were beaten to shreds, and even the core was beaten into a mess, potentially exploding at any moment.
The good news was that Leon and Omni-Man had already decided the winner.
Leon won completely.
...
Omni-Man was strong, but not strong enough.
At least in front of Leon, he wasn't enough.
Leon even held back during the battle.
He didn't go all out.
Just to play with Omni-Man a bit longer.
But after a day, Omni-Man still couldn't hold on.
When Omni-Man's resistance became weaker and weaker, Leon knew this game should end.
Seizing an opportunity, Leon directly shattered Omni-Man's hand bones, then grabbed his head with his other hand.
"The farce ends here."
Leon said to the somewhat dazed Omni-Man.
Omni-Man had also resigned himself to his fate by now.
Because he was truly at the end of his rope, completely spent.
His limbs had been almost completely broken by Leon, and his head had been beaten into an irregular polygon.
There was no possibility of continuing the fight.
Therefore, facing Leon's words, Omni-Man could not refute.
He just closed his eyes.
In the value system of the Viltrumite, dying in battle, dying at the hands of a powerhouse, was an honor.
Begging for mercy would instead be an insult to himself.
So even if Omni-Man was to die, he would rather die cleanly.
This kind of will made Leon nod.
It was considered an acknowledgment.
Then, with a slight exertion of his hand, he crushed Omni-Man's head directly.
Then he threw this broken corpse into the Earth below.
Immediately after, super Heat Vision sprayed out, aiming directly at the volatile core.
Without any obstruction, it pierced directly through the core.
Under these circumstances, the core could no longer hold, and completely exploded with a roar.
The entire Planet was also constantly disintegrating, exploding, and fracturing at this moment.
Leon used this method to provide a funeral for Omni-Man, this decent opponent.
Then, without looking at the explosion, he turned and entered the portal.
Returning to his own World.
...
Marvel, Spider-Woman Universe.
Leon returned to his loyal Villa.
Then he found his favorite sofa and lay on it without any dignity.
Wanda also came over at this time: "What's wrong? You look very tired."
Leon smiled: "Not tired, but satisfied."
Omni-Man was a decent opponent; although he was a bit brutal, his fighting style was open and aboveboard.
It was very satisfying to fight him.
Such a good punching bag, Leon naturally fought to his heart's content, very satisfied.
However, Wanda clearly misunderstood.
Satisfied?
Did you go find another woman again?
A flash of crimson passed through Wanda's eyes.
Then she made herself calm down.
No rush, no rush, it's not the time yet.
After a while, when she became a bit stronger, it would be fine!
Meanwhile, on the other side, Pepper was also taking action for her revenge plan.
For the sake of revenge, she even let go of good and evil, right and wrong.
She found HYDRA, which also had a grudge against Leon!
Chapter 44: Planting the bomb at Site B
For a period of time, Pepper had been crazily trying to find a way to take revenge on Leon.
But there was absolutely no way to do it.
Not to mention implementing it, all plans were declared dead during the verification stage.
It was completely impossible.
Under these circumstances, Pepper became increasingly obsessed.
Eventually, she found HYDRA.
Or perhaps it could be said that it was HYDRA that found her.
Like Pepper, HYDRA also hated Leon to death.
But they didn't have many options either.
Not to mention whether they could overpower Leon in a head-on confrontation.
HYDRA couldn't even get past the hurdle of Nick Fury and S.H.I.E.L.D.
And there were no good opportunities for a soft approach either.
Until they met Pepper.
Immediately, one of HYDRA's leaders, Pierce, had an idea.
And he quickly sent someone to contact Pepper.
At this point, Pepper didn't care about HYDRA or anything else.
She only wanted to take revenge on Leon and avenge Tony.
Looking at the person sent by HYDRA, Pepper asked impatiently: "Tell me, what are you planning to do?"
"Don't think about fooling me; I'm not a fool."
"You had better really have a suitable plan to deal with that demon."
Facing Pepper's questioning, the person from HYDRA said confidently: "Don't worry, Ms. Pepper, we hate that demon just as much as you do."
"For this reason, we specially found Holy Water to counter him."
"Holy Water? What is that?"
"A type of poison that is the most lethal in the World, sufficient to make any creature's genes collapse."
"Even that demon absolutely cannot withstand it!"
Hearing this, Pepper immediately became interested.
But soon, she became dejected again.
"But even so, there is no way to harm that demon."
"He won't give us the opportunity to use the Holy Water."
The person from HYDRA nodded.
Under normal circumstances, that was indeed the case.
After all, Leon was not a fool; why would he foolishly let someone splash water on him?
As for poisoning, that was even more ridiculous.
Holy Water was not colorless or odorless; one would notice it with just a little attention.
And the most critical thing was that the Holy Water trick only worked the first time.
If it didn't succeed once, Leon would be on guard.
There would be no more opportunities afterward.
Therefore, to make it effective, they had to think of an unusual method.
And as it happened, Pepper possessed the conditions for this.
Next, the person from HYDRA explained the plan to Pepper.
After hearing the complete plan, even Pepper couldn't help but be taken aback.
Is HYDRA really this insidious?
But honestly, you really shouldn't say that.
There really was a chance.
Just as Pepper was seriously considering the possibility.
Happy, who had come with her, couldn't hold it in anymore.
He stood up and objected: "Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
"You are playing with Pepper's life!"
"And how could Pepper possibly agree to such an outrageous plan?"
Happy was, of course, anxious.
Because HYDRA's plan was planting the bomb at Site B.
Once the plan succeeded, not only would Leon's genes collapse due to contact with the Holy Water.
Pepper would also be the same.
It was equivalent to a mutually destructive move.
Most importantly, he loved Pepper.
How could he be willing to watch Pepper go and take a shot at Leon?
Unfortunately, Happy didn't understand HYDRA, nor did he understand Pepper.
Almost in the next second, Pepper said: "I agree to the plan, when do we act?"
Happy was stunned.
You agreed?
How could you agree?
One can only say that Happy didn't understand how extreme a woman could be when she was filled with hatred.
...
In the following days.
Pepper followed the people from HYDRA to the HYDRABase.
Here, she underwent brainwashing.
Her hatred for Leon was completely washed away.
And a memory of crazy admiration for Leon was implanted.
The purpose of doing this was to make it more realistic.
Only by deceiving herself first could she deceive Leon.
If Pepper approached Leon with hatred, it would be easy for Leon to see through the flaw.
Subsequently, the people from HYDRA released Pepperback to New York.
And began to arrange for Pepper to have the opportunity to contact Leon.
Soon, Pepper really found an opportunity.
At a bar party, Pepper made contact with Leon.
With the false memories taking effect.
Leon really didn't notice any problems.
Because he hadn't met Pepper before, and Pepper had also changed her name.
This resulted in Leon not realizing that this person had come to harm him.
He thought she was really his little fan.
This was not strange.
After all, Leon was also a legendary musician.
There were too many little girls who worshipped him.
And so, quite naturally, Leon and Pepper had a pleasant conversation.
When the party ended, Leon naturally took Pepper to the hotel.
But just as Leon was about to take Pepper to the room.
Nick Fury arrived with a fat man.
Happy.
Seeing Pepper almost glued to Leon.
Happy was completely unable to accept it.
At this moment, he understood that this was no longer the Pepper he knew.
But had become a stranger.
But even so, he couldn't watch Pepper go and destroy herself along with Leon.
He could only stand up and explain the truth.
...
Following Happy's explanation.
Leon was also stunned.
Damn, this woman is so ruthless.
Being able to come up with such a "Planting the bomb at Site B" plan, that's too insidious.
And Pepper looked innocent: "I didn't, you're talking nonsense, how could I possibly want to harm Leon?"
At this time, Pepper's hatred had been washed away, leaving only worship and love for Leon.
She didn't even know what her real name was.
Hearing Happy's accusation, she naturally couldn't believe it and vehemently refuted it.
But Leon knew it was true.
Because if it were fake, Nick Fury wouldn't have come.
Since Nick Fury had come, it meant he had already confirmed it.
Shaking his head, Leon said to Nick Fury: "I'll leave it to you to handle."
"I have other things to do, so I'll be going."
"Sigh, the World today, really everything could be fake; is there no trust between people anymore?"
This matter had too much of an impact on Leon.
So much so that he had no interest in anything right now.
He just wanted to go home and calm down.
And incidentally find a HYDRA stronghold to kill some snakes to vent his anger.
As for Pepper, Leon couldn't be bothered to care.
He believed Nick Fury would handle it well.
Ignoring Pepper's shouting, Leon quickly disappeared.
Nick Fury also gave Happy a look at this time; Happyunderstood, quickly knocked Pepper unconscious, and took her along as he followed Nick Fury away.
Although this meant that Pepper would likely be locked up by S.H.I.E.L.D. in the future.
But it was still better than being dead.
It was precisely out of the desire not to let Pepper die that Happy contacted Nick Fury to ruin this plan.
And Nick Fury, actually, when he first heard Happy's story, was also a bit conflicted.
If he could really kill Leon, he would absolutely be ten thousand percent willing.
Unfortunately, Nick Fury himself knew that the hope was slim.
Expecting some "gene collapse" to kill a god-like human like Leon was a bit outrageous.
One could only say that HYDRA was really just that.
Chapter 45: New Dimension, DC Gotham
HYDRA, Earth's number one terrorist organization.
But when it comes down to it, that is all they are.
They might have some standing on Earth.
But in the Universe, or in the Multiverse,
HYDRA is just roadside trash.
They would just be kicked to death by someone.
The leader of HYDRA, "Hive", is itself just an "Inhumans" trapped on an alien planet.
He doesn't even compare to the "gods" of Asgard.
How could he possibly possess the ability to kill someone like Leon, an existence capable of destroying a planet solo?
If they were that badass, would HYDRA still be scurrying around in terror from S.H.I.E.L.D.?
Would they have been cleared out by Captain America, Steve, all on his own?
HYDRA's biggest trait is that they are hard to kill; they are everywhere, making them difficult to completely purge.
But in essence, HYDRA is very weak—the kind of weak where they are helpless against even slightly stronger superheroes.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be HYDRA infiltrating S.H.I.E.L.D., but S.H.I.E.L.D. infiltrating HYDRA.
It is just like the righteous and demonic factions in the pugilistic World.
If the demonic path were truly that strong, would it still be the demonic path?
The righteous path is righteous purely because its fist is bigger.
S.H.I.E.L.D. and HYDRA are exactly like that.
HYDRA is reviled by everyone; they are a terrorist organization.
Purely because their fist isn't as big as S.H.I.E.L.D.'s.
Nick Fury of S.H.I.E.L.D. can't do anything about Leon.
How could mere HYDRA possibly harm Leon?
Nick Fury wouldn't believe such words even if he were beaten to death.
Only someone brainless like Pepper would believe it.
Shaking his head, Nick Fury took Pepper and left.
What Nick Fury had to do next was pry open Pepper's brain and find out the whereabouts of HYDRA.
Then, kill the snake.
I can't beat Leon, but can't I beat you?
...
The matter with Pepper didn't have any impact on Leon.
At most, it was just a bit annoying.
He quickly put it out of his mind.
For the next few days, Leon continued his daily routine.
Well, it was just eating, drinking, and having fun everywhere.
Under his lead, he and the two siblings, Wanda and Quicksilver, went skiing in Alaska, fishing in Siberia, and even ran to the North Pole to pet penguins.
I have to say, the texture was quite nice.
After touring the whole World, Leon brought Wanda and Quicksilver home.
While Wanda and Quicksilver were resting, Leon opened the dimensional portal again.
Then he headed to other Universes.
...
The sky here is always gloomy.
The air here is always damp.
The citizens here are always base.
The good people here are always short-lived.
This is Gotham, a cursed city.
Not a metaphorical curse, but truly cursed.
In Gotham, the corpses of old gods are buried, demons from hell are sealed, and it is the territory of the dimensional demon Barbatos.
Furthermore, the land here is polluted by dark magic, and those who live on this land will forever step into darkness.
With so many buffs gathered in one place, it's no wonder Gotham is such a place of outstanding talent.
Fortunately, this applies to ordinary people.
For Leon, Gotham is just a small city with a bit of fun.
At this moment, he was strolling down the streets of Gotham, holding a cup of coffee, leisurely as if he were taking a walk.
Well, he was indeed taking a walk.
But that was enough to make him out of place with everyone around him.
Normal Gothamites have to constantly look around while walking on the road, fearing they might be shot by someone.
They run faster than rabbits at the slightest disturbance.
Or they simply pull out their guns and start shooting on the spot.
Everyone looks like they are suffering from "PTSD".
How could they be as carefree as Leon?
This kind of ease can only mean one thing.
Leon is new to Gotham.
Only a newcomer who has just arrived in this city would be like this.
Usually, after being robbed a few times, these newcomers behave.
And now, someone was planning to do just that.
When Leon walked into an alley, soon local Gotham thugs surrounded him from both front and back.
Their hands were tucked into their shirts, full of threatening intent.
Then the leader shouted at Leon: "Kid, welcome to Gotham."
"Today I'll teach you the first lesson of coming to Gotham, which is don't wander the streets alone."
"Hand over your valuables, otherwise don't blame me for adding another corpse to the Gotham sewers."
Looking at the few thugs preparing to rob him.
Leon silently calculated the time in his heart.
Very good, he had actually been wandering in Gotham for almost five minutes before getting robbed.
You know, in New York, he could encounter two waves of robbers in five minutes.
Looking at it this way, New York is even better.
Just as Leon was preparing to crush these thugs to death.
The man has arrived.
The iconic black cape, the iconic cowl exposing his chin.
And the iconic deep voice: "Guys, I'm in a hurry, why don't you be proactive?"
Seeing Batman, those thugs looked at each other.
Then they all obediently squatted in the corner.
It was clear they hadn't been beaten enough.
Batman was very satisfied with this result and threw the handcuffs he brought with him in front of the thugs.
Then he said to Leon: "Buddy, welcome to Gotham."
And disappeared while gripping his grapple gun.
Only the thugs were left, cooperating with each other to cuff one another, behaving incredibly well.
Seeing this, Leon couldn't help but sigh.
Batman really knows how to play.
The criminals of Gotham City are almost trained by him.
...
"Alfred, what are the results? Do you know who this guy is?"
On the other side, after leaving the alley.
Batman asked the butler, Alfred.
"No, Master, I have scoured the household registrations of every country in the World, and there is no record of this person."
"Either this guy is a savage who just recently entered human society."
"Or this guy is from outer space."
"I personally lean towards the latter; after all, the way this guy appeared was indeed too shocking."
Hearing this, Batman also fell silent for a moment.
In fact, he didn't just come to the alley on a whim to deal with a few thugs.
It was entirely because he saw the scene of Leon walking out of the dimensional portal through surveillance.
This shock made Batman perk up.
Subsequently, he took decisive action to prevent Leon from being attacked in Gotham.
Otherwise, Batman was really worried that Leon would go on a killing spree in Gotham.
For such a guy with an unknown background and powerful means.
The best approach, of course, is to show goodwill first.
Then figure out who the other party is in private.
Just as Batman was thinking that perhaps he should use another identity to contact Leon and see what Leon's intentions were,
His shoulder was tapped by someone.
Batman was stunned for a moment, then immediately jumped away in a reflex.
Turning his head, he realized Leon had appeared behind him.
"What, not welcoming me?"
"Weren't you looking for me? I'm here now, why aren't you happy?"
Leon teased Batman.
And Batman, at this moment, his heart sank to the bottom.
He realized that Leon likely possessed super hearing like Superman.
This means that everything he just said to Alfred.
Had all been heard by Leon.
Investigating someone's background in private is nothing.
But being discovered is very awkward.
Chapter 46: Harley Quinn
However, Batman was, after all, Batman.
He managed to keep his composure.
Ignoring the teasing tone in Leon's voice, Batman said in a deep voice: "Very well, let's have a formal introduction."
"I am Batman, and you, my mysterious friend?"
"Call me Leon. I am a traveler."
"A traveler?" Batman's tone was somewhat confused.
Leon explained casually: "I possess the ability to traverse different Worlds. With this ability, I can travel across the multiverse."
"Coming to Gotham this time is just for travel."
"Very well, I hope Gotham won't disappoint you."
Batman certainly didn't believe him, but he pretended to for the sake of conversation.
After all, there's no need to point out what's obvious.
Afterwards, Batman feigned an invitation for Leon to visit his home.
In reality, he just wanted an excuse to leave.
Being around Leon made Batman feel truly insecure.
Unexpectedly, Leon agreed immediately.
This stunned Batman for a moment, but he reacted quickly.
After setting a time for the visit with Leon, he found an excuse to slip away.
Leon didn't mind, as he really was here for tourism and had absolutely no other motives.
...
As the saying goes, coming to Gotham without visiting Arkham Asylum is a wasted trip.
Leon agreed.
So, he headed to Arkham Asylum.
After entering with ease, he began to wander around inside.
Arkham Asylum was funded and built by WayneEnterprises.
It is the psychiatric hospital with the highest security level in Gotham.
Likewise, it houses the most dangerous people in Gotham.
Joker, Scarecrow, Killer Croc, Riddler...
It could be said that if you haven't "furthered your studies" at Arkham Asylum, you'd be too embarrassed to call yourself a supervillain in Gotham.
Likewise, this is also the largest gathering place for Batman's fans.
Because more than half of the people here are fanatical fans of Batman.
Leon walked past a few wards and could hear similar greetings.
"Hey buddy, were you also sent in here by that damn stinking Batman?"
"How about we team up? Let's break out of here together, and then go settle the score with that damn stinking Batman."
Leon ignored all these invitations.
He was truly just sightseeing.
Finally, Leon stopped in front of a ward.
Because this was Harley Quinn's ward.
And Harley Quinn was using a bedsheet fixed to the ceiling to perform a pole dance.
Perhaps because she had an audience, Harley Quinn was putting in much more effort, displaying all her assets before Leon.
After she finished dancing, Harley Quinn walked to the door with a smile.
She said to Leon: "Darling, do you want to see more?"
"As long as you get me out of here, I'll do whatever you want."
Leon originally didn't want to agree.
But Harley Quinn pulled her clothes down a bit.
She was truly well-endowed.
"Deal. I'll get you out right now."
With a wave of his hand, a portal appeared behind Harley Quinn.
She looked at it curiously and even touched it with her hand.
Then she jumped straight into it.
She was truly reckless.
The next second, she appeared from another dimensional portal, right beside Leon.
Following that, without giving the Arkham Asylum security personnel and other patients time to react, Leon opened another portal and disappeared from the spot with Harley Quinn.
Only those who witnessed it were left stunned.
Then, a massive riot broke out in the ward.
...
Gotham, on the rooftop of a building.
Leon appeared there, bringing Harley Quinn, who was still wearing her hospital gown.
After confirming she had truly escaped from the asylum, Harley Quinn jumped around excitedly on the spot.
She certainly looked very energetic.
Then Leon said: "I've done my part, now it's your turn."
Harley Quinn rolled her eyes, then said with a sweet smile: "No problem, Darling, I'll satisfy you right now."
Then, she quietly grabbed a steel bar from the side and swung it at Leon's head.
Do you really think someone who makes a living in Gotham, especially Harley Quinn, keeps their word?
As a supervillain, isn't being untrustworthy a basic skill?
Leon had anticipated this and grabbed the steel bar.
Then, looking at the smile disappearing from Harley Quinn's face, Leon began to laugh.
"I don't care if you're actually trustworthy, because I have the ability to make you keep your word."
Harley Quinn's heart sank, thinking to herself that she was screwed.
But realizing she was screwed now was already too late.
...
Several hours later, Batman arrived late.
Looking at the relaxed Leon, Batman sighed with exhaustion.
When he first learned that Leon had gone to Arkham Asylum, Batman's heart also suffered a Gordon-like jolt, thinking he was screwed.
Only after discovering that Leon hadn't caused chaos, but had merely taken Harley Quinn away, did Batman breathe a sigh of relief.
At the same time, he realized that while Leon was truly here for tourism, he was also truly capable of causing trouble.
Facing such a powerful and capricious guy, even Batmanfound it a headache.
But since the incident happened in Gotham, Batmancouldn't just pretend not to see it.
He had to time it just right to arrive now.
Ignoring Leon, Batman walked over to Harley Quinn, who was almost rolling her eyes, and said in an unfriendly tone: "Harley Quinn, your time outside is up."
"Now, it's time to go back to your room."
Harley Quinn also came back to her senses, looking at Batman and thinking that things were bad.
She was usually no match for Batman, and now, in such a crippled state, there was no way she could fight.
She could only pin her hopes on Leon.
"Darling, you won't just watch me get locked back up, right?"
Leon smiled and said casually: "What does that have to do with me?"
"I only brought you out; I have no obligation to ensure you stay out."
Leon said to Harley Quinn.
He was just "collecting stamps" with this famous Harley Quinn to satisfy his collecting obsession.
He didn't actually want to take responsibility.
Why would he bother?
Batman didn't give Harley Quinn another chance to speak, knocking her out with a single hand strike.
Then he turned to look at Leon: "Remember to send her back next time; I'm very busy."
This was Batman's small protest.
However, as for the intensity, it could only be said it needed improvement.
Anyway, Leon felt that he would dare to do it again next time, hehe.
...
Honestly speaking, there isn't much to do in Gotham.
Therefore, Leon left very quickly.
He turned and headed straight for Antarctica.
He went to look for Superman's Fortress of Solitude.
If possible, he wouldn't mind picking up the Fortress of Solitude and taking it with him.
He could use it as his private spaceship in the future.
He also wanted to test whether he was a Kryptonian.
Because the Demon Child's abilities were too similar to Superman's, and he was also an alien visitor.
What if he was a Kryptonian from a parallel World?
However, Leon's plan fell through.
Not long after arriving in Antarctica, he was discovered.
A person wearing the classic red and blue uniform with a large "S" symbol on the chest stood in front of Leon.
But it wasn't Superman; it was Superman's cousin, Supergirl!
Chapter 47: Kara El
The Kryptonian had already perished.
Aside from Superman, the only living son of Kryptonian.
There was also a daughter of Kryptonian.
That was Superman's cousin, Kara Zor-El.
At this moment, she was blocking Leon's path, looking at him with a guarded expression.
"Who are you, and what are you doing here?"
Leon's eyes shifted, and he bluffed, "I don't even know why I had to come here."
"Because I felt a summons; there has been a voice in my mind, calling me here."
"Do you have any idea about this?"
After listening, Kara El furrowed her brows and thought for a moment.
Soon, she looked excited.
"Could it be that you are also a Kryptonian?"
"That's it! You can fly, you have infinite strength, and tell me, can you shoot lasers?"
Leon demonstrated, his eyes turning red, and asked KaraEl, "Is it like this?"
"Yes, exactly like that."
"My God, you really are a Kryptonian! Who, whose child are you?"
"Maybe we are even relatives."
"I don't remember. I only know that I arrived on Earth in a spacecraft, and my abilities began to awaken when I was twelve."
Everything Leon said was true.
However, it wasn't about himself, but the template he possessed, Brightburn!
But Kara El didn't know that.
She thought Leon was truly a Kryptonian.
Because it was just too similar.
The abilities were almost identical, and the way he arrived on Earth was the same too.
If this wasn't a Kryptonian, what was?
Immediately, Kara dropped all her defenses against Leon.
She ran directly to Leon's side, took his hand, and said, "That's it, you are definitely a Kryptonian."
"We are compatriots, and one of the only family members left now."
"What is your name? I am Kara El."
"Leon."
"Leon El, how old are you, how is your life now, and have you encountered any difficulties?"
After viewing Leon as a Kryptonian.
Kara El showered Leon with concern, caring for him to the extreme.
It's no wonder Kara El was so excited.
Because it was simply too rare.
The only two known Kryptonians to Kara El, besides herself, were her cousin Superman.
Now that there was another one, how could she not be excited?
Subsequently, Kara El enthusiastically invited Leon to the Fortress of Solitude.
Completely unaware that she was inviting a wolf into the house.
...
The Fortress of Solitude, a Kryptonian spaceship located in the Antarctic.
It was the "home" of Superman and Supergirl.
It was also their secret Base.
Usually, outsiders would almost never come here.
Leon could be considered the first non-Kryptonian to come here.
After entering the Fortress of Solitude, the first thing Supergirl Kara El did was to give Leon a full-body scan.
To check the health status of this clansman.
Then, Kara El was stunned.
Because according to the scan results, there wasn't a trace of Kryptonian genes in Leon's body.
But how could that be?
How could he possibly not have Kryptonian genes?
If that were the case, what was going on with Leon's abilities?
Just as Kara El was wondering if there was something wrong with the machine.
The next instant, Superman arrived.
"Kara, I sensed that a guest had arrived at the Fortress of Solitude, so I came over to see what was going on."
Kara El hurried forward to explain Leon's situation to Superman.
After listening, even Superman was stunned.
Meanwhile, Leon was also sizing up Superman.
Must admit, he was quite handsome.
And he looked very manly.
At the same time, Superman had a very special aura.
If one had to describe it, it was a bit like Jesus.
Full of the "saintly" vibe.
...
"I am Clark, Clark Kent."
"Of course, you can also call me Karl El."
"This is my Kryptonian name."
"Leon, although I am still not clear whether it is your genes that have a problem, or the machine."
"But it doesn't matter; I am willing to be your friend."
Looking at Superman's sincere expression, Leon also shook his hand.
He gave up his plan to loot the Fortress of Solitude.
Forget it, there's no point in harming a good person like Superman.
It could be considered some of Leon's only remaining conscience.
From any perspective, Superman was absolutely a good person.
Powerful yet humble, firm yet brave, kind and compassionate.
Such a person would be admired even by villains.
Not to mention that Leon wasn't even a true villain.
Of course, Leon wouldn't change his style because of this.
Compared to being Superman, he was still more willing to be Homelander.
Afterward, Leon also played some games with Supermanand Supergirl.
For example, racing in flight speed, arm wrestling, comparing their respective reaction abilities, and so on.
Their relationship improved quite a bit all of a sudden.
But soon, Superman left.
Because he heard that a plane was about to crash into a building.
He had to go and stop it immediately.
And Supergirl Kara El invited Leon to have dinner together.
...
Superman's public identity was a reporter for the Daily Planet.
And Kara El's public identity was a college student.
Attending New York University, her main activity area was usually in New York.
Yes, this World also had New York.
But it wasn't as bustling and lively as the neighboring Marvel Universe.
New York in this World had a relatively much lower presence.
And not many major events had occurred.
The only relatively shocking major event was perhaps that decades ago, Dr. Manhattan became a god here.
Because of this, New York had always been called the "Birthplace of Gods," and surprisingly, the public security was bizarrely good.
There weren't many super villains or gang organizations that dared to come to New York to run wild.
Fearing they would be decomposed into basic molecules by Dr. Manhattan.
However, Leon obviously didn't have this concern.
Because he wasn't a villain.
At Kara El's invitation, Leon flew here with her.
Afterward, they found a decent Western restaurant and sat down to eat together.
During this time, the two of them also talked a lot.
Sharing their respective experiences and encounters.
Leon also simply told (made up) some of his experiences.
Kara El believed it directly.
Without ever considering whether Leon might be lying to her.
When they were about done, Kara El asked Leon: "By the way, what do you do now?"
Leon instinctively bluffed: "I am currently working in the entertainment industry."
"Huh?"
"I am a musician."
"Oh, that sounds pretty good."
"It's alright. When I have time, I'll write you a song to use as your future entrance BGM."
"Haha, then I'll start looking forward to it."
After exchanging contact information, Kara El said goodbye.
Leon also found a secluded corner, opened a portal, and returned to the Marvel Universe.
As for the DC World, he would go back when he had time later.
Chapter 48: Gwen Attacks
A new week arrived quickly.
Leon's villain template arrived on schedule as well.
This time, the template came from "A Certain Scientific Railgun."
The major villain—Accelerator!
Its ability is primarily "Vector Manipulation."
Simply put, he can control the trajectory of everything.
He can even control the trajectory between molecules.
And unlike the original "Accelerator" himself, his physique is stronger, and his computing power is even more terrifying.
Therefore, the "Vector Manipulation" ability is even more terrifying in his hands.
In the "Railgun" worldview, he would undoubtedly be a Level 6 esper.
And even in the Marvel Universe, Leon at this moment could be considered a super-villain level threat.
At the very least, he is definitely an Alpha-level Mutant.
However, this doesn't have much impact on Leon's daily life.
Leon was already a Homelander-esque figure before; now he's just a bit more so.
Regardless, he is worshipped by others.
While Leon enjoyed his daily life, Gwen was in trouble.
Ever since her "worldview was reshaped" by Leon, Gwenhad changed her usual style.
She now strikes hard against criminals.
Such a change not only terrified those criminals, but even ordinary people were now murmuring about Spider-Woman.
Even many of Spider-Woman's original fans had turned against her.
For no other reason than that the current Spider-Woman is truly a bit dangerous.
She is practically a venomous spider.
Who can guarantee that they won't become a bad person?
And in the eyes of those who already disliked Spider-Woman, this was Spider-Woman showing her true colors.
For a time, public opinion on Spider-Woman changed drastically, shifting from mostly positive to mostly negative.
What made Gwen even more heartbroken was her father, George Stacy.
George Stacy had always been a hater of Spider-Woman.
He had criticized Spider-Woman's vigilante actions on the news more than once.
And with the change in Spider-Woman's style, George Stacy had even started to describe Gwen as a criminal.
This hurt Gwen deeply.
She was clearly just dealing with those damn bad guys.
Why would her own father view her this way?
Feeling heartbroken, Gwen's mood turned sour.
Whenever she was in a bad mood, she wanted to kill a few scumbags to vent.
And one might ask, where are there the most scumbags in New York?
Naturally, it's those sanctimonious big shots.
This time, Gwen broke into the estate of an entertainment star currently riding high in the U.S.
By the time Gwen arrived, a party was underway.
A large group of celebrities and stars who frequently appeared in the news were twisting their bodies here, doing things they would never do in public.
Gwen even witnessed a scene that was truly an eyesore.
A certain star athlete who called himself a King was there, cosplaying as a maid and acting flirtatiously.
He was even having a "back-to-back battle" with another guy.
Gwen almost vomited from physical discomfort.
However, if that were all, Gwen wouldn't have struck hard.
After all, she wasn't a moral saint demanding everyone else be as moral as her.
Gwen didn't care what hobbies or fetishes others had.
The only reason she appeared here was purely because a secret, unknown evil was hidden here.
From a high vantage point, Gwen noticed a house in the distance guarded by many security personnel.
High-ranking officials and wealthy businessmen in suits would enter it from time to time.
Gwen knew that was her destination.
The reason Gwen tracked down this estate was because she had discovered a vehicle filled with children.
After the LL Island incident, Gwen was full of vigilance regarding anything involving children.
Therefore, she followed the trail all the way here.
She eventually found out that those children had been sent into this estate.
Thinking of the tragic state of LL Island, Gwen decided to raid the place.
After observing the surroundings and waiting for the right moment, Gwen quickly took action.
She immediately broke in like a ghost.
However, what Gwen didn't know was that she had already been discovered the moment she entered.
"Boss, there's an intruder."
"Who is it?"
"Spider-Woman."
"Damn it, why isn't this bitch swinging around outside instead of running here to my place?"
The real mastermind, a person with significant influence in the Military, cursed under his breath.
It was clear he felt it was bad luck that Spider-Woman had come knocking.
But soon, he issued an order: "Let the Hound kill her; our affairs must not be discovered."
"Understood."
With the command issued, a person whose face was almost completely destroyed, with their mouth even stitched together, opened their eyes under the stimulation of special instruments.
At this moment, Gwen had already entered the heavily guarded house.
But strangely, she did not find the whereabouts of the children.
She could only see some high-ranking officials and celebrities chatting in twos and threes.
Gwen frowned; when something is unusual, there must be a demon.
At this moment, Gwen's Spider-Sense suddenly fluctuated violently.
Without thinking, Gwen jumped away immediately.
Almost the next instant, a laser pierced through the position where she had just been and went straight through the surrounding wall.
It was only then that Gwen noticed a strange guy walking towards her with his chest glowing red.
"A Mutant, how is that possible!"
Gwen was surprised.
One must know that the status of Mutants in the U.S. cannot be said to be universally hated, but they are certainly like sewer rats.
They usually hide as much as they can; it's impossible for them to appear in a place where so many celebrities are present.
Moreover, this Mutant was very strange, with many tubes inserted into his body.
He didn't look like a living person, but rather like an experimental subject.
At this moment, Gwen thought of an urban legend.
It was rumored that the U.S. Military had always been researching Mutants.
They would secretly capture Mutants to use for live experiments.
But it had always been an urban legend, and there was never any evidence to confirm it was true.
But now, Gwen was certain that it was true.
The Mutant before her was a "Hound" trained by the Military!
The U.S. Military used Mutants as materials.
While researching Mutant genes, they would also brainwash the Mutants, turning them into tools without self-awareness.
Of course, these tools could only be used by the truly powerful.
Those without real power weren't even worthy of knowing about the existence of these Hounds.
And this estate was one such "important place" worthy of being guarded by a Hound.
It was just that the arrival of Spider-Woman forced the mastermind to activate the Hound.
This meant that this "important place" could no longer be used in the future.
It also meant that Gwen had to die today!
The next moment, the laser struck again.
Gwen dodged in a sorry state.
She wanted to rush over and engage this "Hound" in close combat.
But as soon as she got close, she was shaken off by a powerful fluctuation.
This Hound had dual abilities!
And most critically, there were many armed security personnel surrounding the Hound.
Chapter 49: The World Has Turned Upside Down
Under the metal storm unleashed by the "Hounds" and the surrounding security guards, Gwen was completely suppressed.
She could only rely on her "Spider-Sense" to dodge incessantly, with no ability to fight back.
Furthermore, the excessive use of her "Spider-Sense" caused Gwen's stamina to begin dropping.
If this continued and she couldn't break the deadlock, a dead end was truly all that awaited Gwen.
In the past, facing this kind of situation would indeed have made Gwen feel quite desperate.
But now, it was a different story.
After confirming that she couldn't handle the situation before her relying solely on her own abilities, Gwenstopped pretending and unleashed her most powerful move.
She seized a gap and shouted to the sky, "Leon, come save me!"
The next moment, Leon appeared above Gwen.
"Why did you get yourself into such a mess?"
"I didn't expect the Military to be so dirty."
Gwen said irritably.
Before she came, she never expected to encounter a Mutant.
If she had known, she would never have been so reckless.
If she had even the slightest preparation, Gwen would never have ended up in this position.
Still, she was too careless.
Leon didn't say anything either, because in a sense, he was also partially to blame.
Back on LL Island, there were also Mutants like the "Hounds" guarding the place.
Then, before that Mutant could even act, he was instantly killed by Leon.
This resulted in Gwen having no idea that things like "Hounds" existed.
If she had known, perhaps Gwen would have been much more cautious this time.
But that didn't matter anymore.
Leon had already arrived, so the outcome was naturally sealed.
Leon's eyes began to turn red, and then two beams of Heat Vision shot out directly.
Aiming at the Mutant "Hounds" below, he pierced straight through.
The "Hounds" had actually reacted and taken countermeasures, releasing red lasers from their chests in an attempt to block it.
As a result, they were pierced right through.
The two types of lasers were not on the same level at all.
Afterward, Leon waved his hand, and Chaos Magicinstantly killed the security personnel.
"The rest is up to you; I'm leaving first."
After leaving Gwen with those words, Leon vanished.
Gwen didn't even have time to speak; she would have to wait until she saw Leon next time.
But for now, it was better to deal with the situation at hand.
...
With the "Hounds" and those security personnel gone, Gwen quickly found where the children were being held.
And those children, just like on LL Island, had all suffered inhuman torture.
Even though Gwen was mentally prepared, she was so angry she wanted to laugh.
Facing those guys who were kneeling and begging for mercy, saying all kinds of things in an attempt to survive, Gwen only coldly said, "For things like you, how could you ever be changed?"
Shaking her head, Gwen passed judgment, "It can't be changed at all; only death is your best destination!"
Immediately, Gwen stepped forward, taking them out one by one.
Whether it was executives, politicians, or wealthy celebrities, she slaughtered them all.
This was the style of the current, decisive Gwen.
For those who deserved to die, she would never be soft-hearted.
After killing all these damn guys, Gwen left in style just as the police sirens drew closer.
Only corpses remained scattered on the floor.
Half a minute after Gwen left, George Stacy arrived at the scene with his men.
Seeing the corpses all over the floor, George Stacy's expression was grim.
He subconsciously cursed, "Damn Spider-Woman."
Then, he saw the children.
At this moment, George Stacy clearly heard something shatter in his heart.
What was it?
It was his faith!
...
A tragedy occurred at the luxury manor, and many high-ranking officials and celebrities died tragically.
This incident immediately became the headline.
But the difference was, there was no mention of the children in the news, only words condemning Spider-Woman's cruelty and brutality.
Just looking at this, those in the dark would really think that Spider-Woman had completely turned evil and had started killing innocent people indiscriminately.
And this is the charm of journalism.
But for those who knew the truth, like George Stacy, it was a completely different matter.
Having already had his faith shattered, he walked out of his superior's office in a daze and saw the news.
At this moment, George Stacy felt that he was a joke.
His persistence, his life, all became a joke.
Clearly, he had been working conscientiously all these years, maintaining law and order, and fighting crime; he wouldn't call himself a hero, but at least he lived up to his profession.
But the result: in his jurisdiction, there was a den of evil that harmed children.
And the creators of that den of evil were the very "elites" he worked so hard to protect.
And he hadn't even noticed any of this.
It was only thanks to Spider-Woman, whom he had always hated and wanted to catch, that it all ended.
This absurd fact made George Stacy feel that his decades of life had been lived like a clown.
The morals and justice he believed in were all jokes at this moment.
Compared to her, Spider-Woman was more like the embodiment of justice and righteousness, while he was just a pathetic wretch who had been blinded by others and helped the evildoers without knowing it.
"So, what is wrong with this World, this country?"
George Stacy couldn't help but ask himself this question in his heart, but he was destined not to find the answer.
...
A day in New York started with the sound of gunfire.
Accompanied by the "da-da-da" sound, Leon leisurely took Quicksilver home.
They had been partying all night, and now it was time to go back and catch up on sleep.
But not long after they hit the street, they encountered an accident.
Looking at the gray-brown giant at the end of the street frantically destroying the city, Leon cursed under his breath and prepared to take another street.
Then the next second, a car flew over and smashed into the ground in front of Leon's car; well, they couldn't leave.
"Cool, he looks so strong!"
Quicksilver wasn't nervous, but instead stuck his head out the window and commented on the monster smashing things in the distance.
This monster was none other than Abomination, a monster created from Hulk's blood.
This was also a feature of the Marvel Universe; you could easily create some over-the-top monsters.
Just relying on Hulk's blood, the monster Abomination was created; there was even the "Sentinel Serum" that was ridiculously over-the-top.
What kind of "I think, therefore I am" black technology was this?
And the funny part was right there: the U.S. Military, which could produce Abomination and Sentinel, couldn't replicate the Super Soldier Serum that had been successfully tested decades ago.
I don't know how their technology tree was developed; it was just completely abstract.
Seeing Abomination getting closer and closer, soon to punch Leon's car, Leon made a decisive move.
He took a coin out of his pocket and threw it at Abomination.
The next moment, accelerated by Vector Manipulation, the coin's speed instantly soared to the level of hundreds of Machs.
It didn't give Abomination any reaction time, hitting it directly in the head, and then it exploded.
Abomination, which even Hulk struggled against, was instantly killed by a coin Leon threw.
Chapter 50: Marvel Zombie Universe
After instantly killing Abomination, Leon didn't even spare it another glance. He quickly drove away.
Only General Ross, who arrived on the scene shortly after, was left looking at Abomination's corpse, lost in thought.
As a hardliner in the Military, General Ross had always hoped to build a super-army composed entirely of "Captain America."
To this end, he vigorously promoted the "Super Soldier Serum" project. But after so many years, he hadn't seen any hope.
Later, after encountering Hulk, he set his sights on Hulkinstead, hoping to form a "Hulk Legion."
For this reason, he hunted down Dr. Banner everywhere, forcing Dr. Banner to hide all over the World.
Finally, not long ago, he found Dr. Banner and, through Dr. Banner's blood, developed the serum.
Originally, General Ross intended to optimize and perfect this serum for several generations before using it himself. However, it was swallowed by one of his soldiers. Thus, Abomination was born.
Regarding Abomination, General Ross's feelings were complicated. He both wanted to slaughter Abominationand was happy about Abomination's birth.
He even wished for Abomination to become stronger and stronger, so that his research project would have greater value.
Then, Abomination was instantly killed. Looking at Abomination's headless corpse, General Ross was more concerned about one question than anything else.
If Abomination is this weak, is there any need to continue the research? And, what kind of existence managed to instantly kill Abomination?
...
The appearance of Abomination meant the curtain was rising on the era of superheroes. According to the original plot, Iron Man should also be about to be born.
Unfortunately, Tony died, which meant there would never be that classic line, "I am Iron Man." But it didn't matter much.
Because what was meant to happen would still happen. In other words, Earth would soon enter an era of chaos and battles between gods and monsters.
However, Leon didn't care about this. He had already touched the multiverse. In those endless Universes, if he wanted to, couldn't he find a World where superheroes thrived?
...
"Bad luck!" Stepping out of the portal, Leon appeared in the air. Super vision allowed him to easily know the situation in this World.
But after seeing it, he just wanted to spit and leave. Because this was the damn "Zombie Universe."
A World where superheroes were infected by a zombie virus, and the entire globe had fallen into a desperate apocalypse. A World without heroes, without redemption, and without hope.
Just as Leon was preparing to open a portal and leave this unlucky World, a golden light flew over rapidly from a distance. With an incredibly exaggerated speed, it flew directly to Leon's side.
And threw a punch at Leon. Leon turned and caught the punch with his hand, while also seeing clearly who the attacker was. Captain Marvel!
But unlike the Captain Marvel of other Universes, the Captain Marvel before him had rotting skin and blood-red eyes; she had already been infected by the zombie virus.
Although it was ridiculous that a mere zombie virus could infect Captain Marvel, that was the fact.
"Roar!" After her attack was blocked by Leon, Captain Marvel immediately let out a roar at Leon. At the same time, her body began to emit golden light, and in the next second, two golden beams erupted from her eyes.
And at the moment they were about to hit Leon, these two golden beams strangely deflected. They actually made a ninety-degree turn right in front of Leon. Vector Manipulation, kid.
Then, not giving the zombie Captain Marvel a chance to continue breathing, Leon backhanded a punch onto her face, instantly turning Captain Marvel into a meteor, flying off who knows how far.
However, this also made Leon abandon the idea of leaving this Universe immediately. Since he was already here, he might as well have some fun. If worst came to worst, he could just run away later.
Thinking of this, Leon turned and chased after the flying Captain Marvel.
...
As a powerhouse among superheroes, Captain Marvel's strength was truly exaggerated.
Not only did she possess Superman-like physical prowess, but she also had the ability to absorb and convert all forms of energy. She was a master of both magic and physical combat, a truly well-rounded warrior.
But the opponent she was facing was Leon. A true monster.
After catching up to the flying Captain Marvel, Leon's eyes bloomed with Super Heat Vision, and then he unleashed two scorching red beams at Captain Marvel.
Captain Marvel roared and released the same golden light to resist. The two distinct energies collided directly, immediately forming a huge explosion.
The night sky was completely illuminated at this moment, an explosion resembling a miniature Sun appeared in mid-air. And this scene also attracted the attention of many people.
On the ground, Scarlet Witch, who had completely turned into a zombie but still retained self-awareness, looked up at the miniature Sun in the sky with scarlet eyes.
Under the perception of Chaos Magic, she clearly sensed a huge threat. Even her trump card zombie, Captain Marvel, was being suppressed and beaten at this moment.
Damn it, how could such a powerful superhero still exist on Earth? At the same time, in another place, a group of survivors of the apocalypse also looked up at the miniature Sun in the sky.
While shocked, their hearts also grew a bit of hope. If it happened to be an ally, wouldn't they have a chance?
...
Five years ago, Ant-Man, in order to save his wife, chose to enter the Quantum Realm, but there, he saw his wife, Wasp, who had already been infected by the zombie meme virus.
And Ant-Man thus became a zombie, bringing the outrageous "zombie meme virus" back to the real World.
The so-called "zombie meme virus" was essentially a conceptual virus. As long as one was bitten by a zombie carrying the virus, they would be infected and become a zombie.
Note, it's that you turn as long as you are bitten, not that you have to be bitten through the skin to turn. And precisely because of this, a superhero like Captain Marvel, whose defense was comparable to Superman, eventually turned into a zombie.
Even Iron Man, hiding in his armor, was infected and became Zombie Iron Man. It was under the spread of this outrageous "zombie meme virus" that...
The entire World, in a very short time, became a Zombie Universe. Those superheroes all turned into zombie superheroes. Only a very small number of survivors managed to scrape by.
Ironheart Riri Williams, the second Hawkeye Kate Bishop, and Ms. Marvel Kamala Khan were among the survivors. The three of them formed a team, surviving in the apocalypse.
And not long ago, they accidentally obtained a S.H.I.E.L.D.sub-space transmitter, which could transmit interstellar signals. This gave them hope of saving Earth.
That was to use this transmitter to send a distress signal and seek help from the Nova Corps. But the problem was that Earth had already been enveloped by the Wakandaenergy shield. The signal couldn't be transmitted out at all.
The only way was to fly into space and then activate this transmitter. But they didn't know how to fly up there. Originally, Kamala and the others intended to go to the S.H.I.E.L.D. Base to take a look.
But now, looking at the dazzling miniature Sun above their heads, they felt that perhaps they could find other ways.
