"Hmm? Metropolis is in danger?"
David sat up abruptly.
Immediately, the lamp ring began playing a combat video, showing Clark fighting the parasite.
Its purplish-red skin, its enormous size as it absorbs energy, and its ability to gain the opponent's power by absorbing energy instantly reminded him of a classic supervillain from Sons of Krypton.
"—Is it a parasitic demon?"
Swish!
Shazam!
A bolt of lightning struck, and the figure on the deck chair vanished. David sped toward the Metropolis.
Parasite was originally a deliveryman. After being infected by an alien parasite, he became a monster that constantly absorbed the life and power of others to relieve his endless hunger. He could temporarily gain the abilities, experience, and even memories of others by absorbing their energy.
"Among the many villains Clark should have faced, he is one of the very few who has defeated Superman head-on multiple times and even has a record of killing Superman."
David wasn't afraid of the parasite's power, but the possibility of it killing Superman made him somewhat anxious.
In the blink of an eye, David arrived in the air above the streets of the metropolis where the battle was taking place, his figure accompanied by a gust of wind and a cold expression.
Not only Clark was there, but Batman and the others were also there; the Justice League was almost all present, though they had already been defeated.
"Help!"
Several blocks were in chaos as citizens fled in terror. The streets looked as if they had been bombarded by missiles. Several buildings and rows of shops were damaged. Fire hydrants were blown up, and leaking water shot into the sky. Cars were smashed into metal pancakes, and some places were still on fire.
"Clark!"
David flew to Clark's side, whose appearance had drastically changed, with sunken cheeks and a weak look on his face, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
Clark was thrown aside by the parasite that had been fighting Batman and the others, but he was too weak to move.
"Watch out, he..."
Clark forced a reminder through clenched teeth.
"I see."
David raised his hand, stood up, and looked at the parasitic demon and the others who were smashing things up.
Batman's Fenrir armor, drained of its energy and reduced to a pile of scrap metal, was blasted into the 23rd floor of a nearby building. He struggled to manually open the hatch, slid down using the grappling hook, and solemnly reminded David.
"Don't let him touch it."
Diana and the Green Lanterns were drained of their energy and left to rot in a state resembling mummies by the roadside.
The parasite craves their unique life energy and wants to taste their deliciousness again, so it doesn't have the heart to kill them. Now, only the Flash, who keeps running around him and attacking him, hasn't had his energy drained.
Bang!
After several failed attempts to capture him, the parasite slammed its hands together in anger, shattering the glass on both sides of the street and sending the Flash flying with the shockwave.
"Oh, my ears!"
Just as Barry Allen was about to crash heavily into the wall and break his bones, David caught him from a distance and gently placed him aside. However, he was helpless against the ruptured eardrum. The Flash clutched his ear in excruciating pain and screamed, temporarily losing his fighting ability.
His face was gloomy, and as his mood changed, the sky suddenly changed, thunder roared, and it was extremely frightening.
"It's you, the Transcendent One?"
A strong wind blew through the street. The parasitic demon turned around and saw David. It remembered that 'he' had been blamed for breaking the recipient's Beyonder figurine that morning, and a ferocious look appeared in its eyes.
"I wonder what your life energy tastes like!"
167. Chapter 165: Secret Observation and Integration Completed
On the streets of Metropolis, the parasite drained the energy of Wonder Woman and her companions, gaining their abilities. Its size also increased dramatically, growing to a massive seven or eight meters tall, with explosive muscles and a ferocious, gaping maw. It lunged forward, its hands attempting to grab David.
Click, click, click!
The earth could not withstand the force of his stomp and exploded, sending debris flying everywhere.
David's eyes narrowed, and a powerful gravitational field suddenly descended. The parasitic demon's body felt as if a mountain was pressing down on it, and its speed plummeted. It lunged at David, who quickly turned his head to avoid the giant hand and threw a punch.
Bang!
The parasitic demon was as if hit by a missile, flying backwards and crashing through several shops before finally coming to a stop in mid-air.
David frowned and looked at his fist.
He lost some energy.
"Although the number is negligible, it has indeed been lost."
This means that his ability to absorb energy is inferior to that of the Parasite.
"Your energy tastes like...like..."
The parasitic demon's enormous body hovered in the air like a muscular demon. He talked for a long time without getting to the point, then smiled mockingly and attacked David again.
"Perhaps I need to try it again before I can give a result!"
Two figures, one large and one small, clashed fists in mid-air. Cars parked on the street were blown away by the shockwave. The most striking scene was that the parasitic demon, whose fist was the size of a hydraulic press, was sent flying several meters backward, but it immediately adjusted its body and attacked again.
"It's a bit cold, like eating lemon-flavored crushed ice."
His muscular arms continued to attack wildly, while he commented on the energy he absorbed from David, like a gourmet savoring a delicious meal.
"It's a bit stimulating on the tongue, tingling and numb, like eating chili peppers."
David's body contains a mixture of various abilities, making the parasite feel as if it were tasting a novel ingredient with complex flavors.
"I've seen your news. Didn't you say you could summon lightning? The Transcendent One."
"Why don't you strike me with your lightning?"
Now that he was full, he was no longer as dazed as before. The parasite mocked him, trying to provoke David.
Each time he clashed with David, he stole a little bit of power from him. Their fight was as fast as lightning. As he absorbed David's energy, he gradually felt himself gaining new abilities and couldn't wait to become stronger.
David was not easily provoked. His fists, carrying overwhelming power, rained down like a storm, like a steady bulldozer that sent the parasite flying backward through the air.
The Parasite Demon's abilities can even absorb the Speed Force, which is not bound by physics, let alone his divine lightning power.
"We can't rely on any energy to deal with this monster; that will only make it stronger."
David's eyes were cold.
The ability to emit energy on one's own is essentially useless, but it doesn't matter, there are other abilities, such as physical strength and the ability to manipulate gravity.
However, since the parasite had drained the energy of Clark, Diana, and Arthur, and briefly gained their abilities, its physical strength was nearly 70% of David's. Even so, he couldn't defeat it in a few punches and kicks; a fierce hand-to-hand combat was likely to follow.
Stab it!
To provoke David into using an energy attack, the parasitic demon fired heat vision from its eyes, blasting through the air. David raised his arms to block, but was pushed a distance in mid-air.
"You're not the only one who can absorb energy."
But this replenished the energy that David had previously absorbed, and he grabbed a van from a distance and slammed it down on the parasite.
Tear!
The parasitic demon tore the incoming van in two with its bare hands as if it were shredding cardboard, and angrily spun around and threw it back at David.
David sped through the two-sectioned van like a bolt of purple lightning, his fist slamming into the parasite's head, sending it flying. He quickly caught up, intending to continue his attack on the parasite's head.
In the past, others would become increasingly powerless the more they fought him, because he could absorb energy.
"But today the situation is probably reversed."
To avoid trouble, it must be resolved quickly.
"Trying to knock me out? Not so easy!"
The parasitic demon sensed David's intention, grabbed David's hand, and grinned maliciously, just about to absorb his energy, when it was slammed into the stomach by a force as heavy as a mountain, forcing it to release its grip in a sorry state. It retaliated angrily.
It was as if two giant beasts were fighting in the city, the earth shook, and the bursts of white, violent shockwaves almost destroyed the surrounding buildings.
Batman and Flash together moved the League members aside.
The citizens fled far away, holding their breath and watching the battle in terror from a distance.
The other members of the Justice League have already fallen, and they know that if the Beyonder also falls, then the dozens of lives this monster has just taken are just the beginning!
They placed all their hopes on the Transcendent One, praying that he could defeat the monster.
Another punch collided.
David frowned; the rate at which his energy was being drained was increasing.
"This is really interesting; my ability to absorb energy is getting stronger."
The enormous body was shaken and flipped over in mid-air, the parasitic demon grinning maliciously.
"You felt it too, right?"
He reached out and grabbed several manhole covers from the ground, which floated up and shot towards David at supersonic speeds, with enough force to pierce through a building in half.
With the absorption of enough energy from David's body, the parasite finally gained some of David's abilities. Not only did its physical body become stronger, but it also gained the ability to manipulate gravity and manipulate energy while chasing David, making its already terrifying ability to seize energy even stronger.
laugh!
