Just as the Beast actively detonated, mysterious runes burned, and crimson light flickered, igniting the giant spherical object beneath Lucas's feet.
A terrifying energy fluctuation faintly emanated from it.
Lucas frowned.
The giant spherical object beneath his feet was the center of this dimension. Most of the dimension's mass and energy were contained within it. Once detonated, it would completely destroy this dimension, causing spatiotemporal turbulence.
The 404 Universe, which was in close proximity, would also be impacted by the spatiotemporal storm, especially the Solar System.
If a chain reaction were to ignite the sun, the entire Solar System would likely turn into cosmic dust.
'I can't just leave and ignore this.'
Having made his decision, Lucas used the runes he had just learned to try and sort out and calm the energy fluctuations of the giant spherical object.
Under Lucas's efforts, the energy fluctuations gradually subsided.
Just then, a black shadow, over ten meters in size, rushed out of the dimension.
A clone of the Beast!
"This cockroach." Lucas cursed under his breath.
He understood why the Beast's strength was off. In his own domain, he was even weaker than Mephisto's clone outside.
It seemed the Beast's main body had died when his Hell was annexed, and what survived was a clone. No wonder his sanity was a bit abnormal.
The one escaping now was another clone. It was also the Beast that had descended upon Earth.
After the energy fluctuations of the giant spherical object further decreased, making it unable to destroy the dimension, Lucas actively detonated it to save time.
Then, he also rushed out of the dimension, entered the Superflow, and pursued the Beast in the direction it fled.
The Superflow is both the space between parallel Universes and the fetal membrane of the entire Multiverse.
It separates parallel Universes while also enveloping the entire Multiverse. In addition, the Superflow has many peculiar spatial characteristics. It is the space of dreams, the birthplace of concepts, an informational space.
At this moment, a chase was unfolding in the Superflow near the 404 Universe.
The Beast changed direction several times, trying to shake off Lucas, but found Lucas getting closer and closer.
Clearly, his speed was not as good as Lucas's. If he continued to flee, he would soon be caught.
Helpless, he could only plunge into the 404 Universe, hoping to get assistance from his allies.
...
Earth, off the coast of Japan, above the sea.
A spatial rift appeared, and the Beast squeezed out of it.
"Save me!"
Lucas followed closely, also rushing out of it.
He pressed one hand on the Beast's head and plunged straight down.
Crack!
Accompanied by a sonic boom, Lucas, with his hand on the Beast's head, slammed heavily onto the sea surface, then continued downwards, crashing into the seabed.
"Ahhhh!"
The Beast roared, but he couldn't break free from Lucas's hand.
Boom... Boom...
With his left hand pressing the Beast's head, Lucas clenched his right hand into a fist and continuously punched the Beast. Each impact of his fist with the Beast caused a huge roar. It stirred up towering waves on the sea surface.
A moment later, the Beast's energy was exhausted, unable to heal his injuries. His body became ethereal, and finally completely dissipated.
"Phew..."
Lucas rose and rushed out of the water, letting out a long sigh.
Finally, part of the matter was resolved. He could take Matt back to give Erin an explanation before tomorrow morning.
Although, it was only Matt's soul.
Thinking of this, Lucas felt a little uncomfortable.
His button was fine. As long as it was triggered, he could definitely arrive at the scene within a second.
Normally speaking, with Matt's keen perception, he wouldn't be instantly killed without being able to press the button.
Even if Matt didn't have time to press the button and was instantly killed, he could still revive Matt with the Time Stone.
But...
Matt just happened to encounter the Beast, and coincidentally, his upper body, especially his brain, was taken out of the Universe and into another dimension.
"Lucas, something happened."
The Ancient One's voice suddenly sounded, reminding Lucas to look outside.
Lucas wondered, "What's going on?"
The Ancient One said, "See for yourself."
Lucas looked around and noticed something was wrong.
When he was brutally beating the Beast at the bottom of the sea, he vibrated the seawater, forming wave after wave of monstrous tsunamis. Afterward, the giant waves rushed towards the shore.
It was June, the hot season, and the coast was crowded with people. If the giant waves crashed down, there would likely be countless casualties.
At this moment, the frolicking crowd on the shore also discovered the abnormality.
A rumbling sound came from the sea, like muffled thunder. After a while, the sound grew louder and louder, and a white line appeared where the water met the sky.
"Tsunami! Run!"
Several shouts rang out, and the crowd instantly boiled over.
They scrambled to run away from the beach.
The white line rapidly approached, gradually lengthening, thickening, and spanning the sea.
Closer still, only rolling waves were seen, forming a water wall dozens of meters high.
"It's over, we can't escape. None of us can escape."
Some people fell to the ground, giving up the struggle.
Such giant waves, dozens of meters high, would destroy everything in their path.
Just as the waves were about to sweep the shore and engulf the crowd, a shadow suddenly flashed, appearing before the giant waves.
After the shadow appeared, it simply held its right hand flat. The next second, the waves stopped rolling, as if frozen.
Click... Click...
Ice first appeared at the crest of the wave, gradually spreading to the entire giant wave. Finally, the entire sea surface was frozen.
"Miracle! This is a miracle!"
People who fell to the ground, waiting for death and people who felt the giant waves coming, turning back in terror, witnessed this scene, stunned on the spot.
"God... it's a God who descended to save us."
"It must be the Sea God. He descended to save us."
On the shore, more and more people discovered the frozen giant waves and the sea surface. Witnessing the miracle, having escaped disaster, they knelt and cheered, shouting 'God'.
Far away on the helicarrier, the Avengers, gathered after completing their mission, saw this scene via satellite.
"F*ck!"
"Motherf*cker!"
"Is this something a sorcerer can do? The entire sea surface is frozen."
The Avengers looked at the screen in disbelief.
"This is not something a sorcerer can do." Tony said speechlessly.
If he didn't explain, his teammates might think he was a fake.
"Sorcerers aren't as magical as you imagine. Normal sorcerers just open a portal and summon energy weapons to fight."
Nick Fury looked at Lucas on the screen, his eyes shining.
This was the image of the strongest Avenger in his mind. No matter what kind of crisis, he could easily handle it.
