Originally, Pyro was still envious of Bobby for getting the Green Lantern Ring, and these days he had been desperately trying to merge with the Eternal Flame.
Under this indomitable spirit, the Eternal Flame was almost completely subdued by him.
The abilities controlled by Mutants are inherently inclined towards rules, defying logic, especially in the case of Pyro, who was not originally an Omega-level Mutant, but through his own bizarre and self-destructive actions, he became even more powerful than an Omega-level Mutant.
To prevent his friend and rival, Bobby, from always being ahead of him, Pyro truly chased with all his might.
But he didn't expect that he would be the first to be dispatched by Kytheron, and he was so excited that he danced with joy, immediately transforming into a ball of flames and flying into the sky without a word.
He knew what the ultimate goal of all he did was for, wasn't it to gain Kytheron's approval?
Now, with so many people available, he was chosen, which surely meant that he, John Allerdyce, was the one most favored by His Majesty the God King!
He was floating, John was truly floating at this moment!
"Who are you, and what is your purpose in approaching Apokolips?"
Upon seeing Wu Fengji, Pyro questioned her unceremoniously.
At the same time, his eyes scanned Wu Fengji up and down.
"You actually possess the Eternal Flame of Surtur, the Fire Giant. Apokolips, could this be a new kingdom established by Asgardians?"
"May I ask if the Master here is God King Thor or God King Loki?"
Evidently, Wu Fengji recognized the Eternal Flame and knew that this source of power, originally belonging to the Fire Giant, had been taken by Odin, the All-Father!
Even in the depths of the Universe, she had heard the news of Odin's Death, and she was naturally aware of Thor and Loki's succession.
Therefore, subconsciously, Wu Fengji suspected that this Planet named Apokolips was a vassal state established by the two new kings of Asgard.
"Hmph, how can a mere Asgard be compared with our Apokolips? If it weren't for our great God King, Asgard would have long ago turned into ruins!"
"Listen well, there is only one God King in this Universe, and that is our great God of Apokolips, the only True Sun God of the Multiverse."
"And I am His Majesty the God King's greatest warrior, Fireman John Allerdyce."
Upon hearing Wu Fengji's words, John first scornfully disparaged Asgard, then proudly raised his head and reported Kytheron's divine name.
However, at this moment, he naturally did not forget to boast about himself.
Although he currently couldn't defeat Jean, Hela, Nur, Storm... or even his friend Bobby, he had no confidence at all, but this didn't prevent him from claiming this title first.
"True Sun God, could it be the one from before?"
When John mentioned the title God of Apokolips, Wu Fengji was completely bewildered.
But when she heard the phrase "the only True Sun God of the Multiverse," her mind tensed, and she instantly thought of the great Multiverse upheaval that had occurred previously.
At this moment, Wu Fengji suppressed the shock in her heart, and to verify her conjecture, she decided to visit the God King mentioned by John.
"I apologize for my abrupt visit. I am Wu Fengji, the 45th generation Iron Fist of K'un-Lun, who came to the Universe from Earth several hundred years ago."
"Could you please introduce me to His Majesty the God King? Fengji would be eternally grateful!"
Wu Fengji gently introduced herself to John, then requested an audience with Kytheron.
"Wait, you said you also came from Earth? And you came to the Universe several hundred years ago?"
John was stunned when he heard Wu Fengji's words, not expecting her to be an old Earthling acquaintance.
He carefully observed Wu Fengji, and for some reason, John felt a somewhat familiar sensation from her, though he couldn't pinpoint exactly where the familiarity lay.
However, once he knew that the other party was also an Earthling, John's hostility lessened considerably!
The anticipation of a fight also vanished.
"Also?"
"May I ask if you also come from Earth?"
Wu Fengji keenly caught the keyword in John's sentence.
"That's right, I do come from Earth. All of us Mutant compatriots were blessed by His Majesty the God King to be able to enter His Majesty's divine kingdom, Apokolips, from Earth."
At this point, John's face was full of pride, his youthful nature evident.
"You mean the residents of Apokolips are all Mutants who came from Earth!"
Wu Fengji knew about the Mutant community when she was on Earth, but she didn't expect them to have all migrated to the Planet before her.
"Alright, since you have no hostility, then come with me!"
"Let me warn you first, don't even think about causing trouble on Apokolips, otherwise, the consequences will be more than you can bear. Also, whether our God King wants to see you is up to you!"
Realizing that a battle was no longer possible, John was too lazy to say more to Wu Fengji. After a warning, he prepared to take her into Apokolips.
"Please rest assured, I will absolutely not harbor any ill intentions."
After guessing Kytheron's identity, Wu Fengji, of course, wouldn't cause trouble on Apokolips, as if she were tired of living.
"John, bring her directly to me!"
After landing, John heard Kytheron's voice in his ear.
John, with a fervent expression, bowed slightly towards the direction of Kytheron's palace and said, "Yes, Your Majesty the God King!"
"Please follow me! His Majesty the God King has agreed to see you!"
After John finished speaking, he strode forward with his head held high and chest puffed out, looking utterly proud as he passed by people along the way.
Under the continuous, brainwashing-like education of Nur, the Mutant ancestor, the Mutants on Apokolips held an almost fanatical worship for Kytheron.
"Damn it, that guy John got ahead of me!"
"Damn it! No, I must train even harder, I must make His Majesty the God King see me!"
...
A group of Mutants looked at John's arrogant demeanor and couldn't help but feel a pang of jealousy.
Upon entering the palace, John also dropped his outside facade, a look of fanaticism appearing on his face.
"Your Majesty the God King, the person has been brought!"
John looked at Kytheron, who was seated on the enormous divine throne above the dais, with an expression of immense reverence.
"You've mastered the Eternal Flame well. There's also a divine artifact called the Twilight Sword in Surtur's old lair!"
"Once you seize it, I shall bestow upon you the position of Fire God."
Upon hearing Kytheron's words, John trembled with excitement, and the two flames in his eyes burned fiercely.
"Surtur, you're dead!"
At this moment, in John's heart, Surtur had already been sentenced to Death; no one could change that.
Watching John leave with a burning fighting spirit, Kytheron then turned his gaze to Wu Fengji, the former strongest Iron Fist of K'un-Lun and one of the White Phoenix.
And Wu Fengji, standing below the throne in the great hall, felt her entire body stiffen under Kytheron's gaze, unable to move at all, even the Phoenix within her was trembling.
