Aikins clutched the wishing stone tightly in her hand. David saw the shape of the stone in her hand and heard her wish. His expression changed, and he immediately remembered what it was.

"Wishing stone?"

After whispering and making a wish.

Aikins felt her whole body burning up, as if she had turned into a super volcano, with endless power surging within her. Her eyes flashed with pink light, and she seemed to transform into a small sun. Excitement appeared on her face.

"I am ten times stronger than before!"

"You will all kneel down at my feet!"

The sky changed color, and a godlike pressure enveloped all directions. She shouted, stomped the earth, and her fist tore through the sky, instantly reaching Clark.

click!

Clark felt a sharp pain in his chest, as if he had been hit by a rocket. He flew hundreds of meters backward and crashed into a towering forest. The trees were smashed like withered grass broken by a hurricane. From the sky, it looked as if the chariot of the sun god had swept across, leaving a long, deep trench.

Clark was sent flying, and David's heart skipped a beat.

"Now it's your turn."

Aikins's eyes swept over, carrying an imposing authority, like a female war goddess, as she threw a punch.

"You have no idea what you're up to!"

David threw a punch, unleashing a torrent of cosmic energy. The two fists collided, sending up a massive gust of wind that ripped the ground apart. Huge, spiderweb-like cracks stretched for tens of meters, as if a massive bomb had been dropped, and the soil was stirred up like waves.

The ground, hardened to the point of being as solid as steel by the immense pressure.

David stood firmly in place like an unshakeable mountain, his eyes cold as knives, his tall and powerful body showing no signs of injury, his imposing and majestic presence making it hard for people to breathe.

The violent impact caused a burning pain in her arm, and Aikins took a step back. Her arm was red, and the skin curled up and peeled off, as if it had been scalded by lava. Her face showed disbelief, and she raised her fist to attack again.

"impossible!"

Why is it that even with her strength increasing so much, she still can't defeat this guy?

"How could you possibly withstand my power!"

Having greatly improved his ability to manipulate energy, he steadily caught her attack. David threw a punch, the power of which increased several times compared to the previous punch, enough to shake mountains and split the earth.

Bang!

A thick, white shockwave exploded, sending Aikins flying backward. Before she could catch her breath, David, radiating a chilling killing intent, leaped forward like lightning and swung his fist down.

Aijins braced herself with her arms, as if a mountain was crashing down on her. Unable to withstand the even more violent force, she knelt on one knee. The ground beneath her feet cracked, and spiderweb-like fissures spread for tens of meters. Blood spilled from the corner of her mouth.

"No, why is this happening? I haven't gained ten times the strength at all."

She was blinded by the false feeling of a surge in power; in reality, the increase was nowhere near as significant.

"You're overestimating the person who made this stone."

He raised his fist again and slammed it down, releasing the violent kinetic energy he had absorbed in one go, like a bombardment by a ten-thousand-ton missile, blasting Aikins into the ground with overwhelming force.

"Moreover, your power is waning."

The crater, tens of meters in diameter, resembled a scar on the earth. David leaped down and slowly picked up the wishing stone that Aikins, whose bones had been shattered, had dropped beside him.

"Ho...ho..."

Aijinsi's hair was gray, her face was aged, and she couldn't stop coughing up blood. Her eyes widened in extreme resentment as she stretched out her thin, stick-like hand, trying to grab the wishing stone from afar, trying to grasp the last straw, but it was all in vain.

David picked up the stone, played with it for a moment, and then shook his head.

"Even if your power only increases several times, and your wish is greatly diminished, it will still come at the cost of your life."

"This stone is no good; making a wish upon it is tantamount to making a deal with the devil."

Now he understood where Aikins's formidable strength came from.

"Please...please, save me."

In a short while, her life force was drained, and Aikins, who was as thin as a skeleton, pleaded, trying her best to activate her power while speaking, exhaling sweet breath from her mouth.

As if he had smelled cheap perfume, David waved his hand in front of his nose.

"Since you're about to die, don't try to use your ridiculous seductive abilities on me."

Her life was completely drained; Aikins's eyes were dull and lifeless, like two cloudy glass balls, and she stopped breathing.

"She...she's dead?"

Clark rushed back, clutching his chest, looking bewildered.

After being sent flying by the suddenly amplified Aikins, he felt unprecedented pain and even suspected that his ribs were broken. Fearing that something might happen to David, he hurriedly dragged his injured body back.

They found that Atkins was already dead.

"This time, I didn't do it."

David said.

"She was too greedy and made a wish that led to her own death."

Greed is one of humanity's original sins.

"Make a wish?"

Can this stone grant wishes?

After jumping into the deep pit and being exposed to the sun for a short while, Clark felt that his injuries had almost completely healed. He stretched his body, jumped into the pit again, and looked at the stone in David's hand with surprise.

From a young age, he had heard that fairy tales contained all sorts of treasures that could grant wishes.

But I never expected to see it in real life.

"Akins did indeed gain several times more strength after making her wish," he recalled the scene.

"Don't look at it, it's not good stuff."

David put it away and tucked it into his shirt pocket.

This stone is likely the one Wonder Woman wished to bring her boyfriend back to life, which also led to the birth of Cheetah.

However, there is no doubt that the story did not play out in reality.

"Otherwise, given the extent to which the whole world was affected and in chaos at the time, my parents wouldn't have been so surprised by Clark, this alien."

Why didn't this part of the story appear?

At that time, I wasn't even born yet, so the butterfly effect I caused shouldn't have affected those before I was born.

A hint of doubt flashed across David's eyes.

He suddenly remembered a hypothesis.

"Time is a river. When someone throws in a pebble, the ripples it creates will not only affect the water below the current location, but also the water above it."

In comics, there are more than one such example.

For example, in the Flashpoint event, Barry Allen travels back to before his mother died, and as a result, the time period before his birth is also affected by him.

"The Wayne family leaves the movie theater and is robbed at gunpoint. Young Batman Bruce Wayne dies in that dark alley, and Thomas Wayne takes his place as the violent Batman who fights crime. Batman's mother, Martha, can't accept it and goes insane, becoming the Joker..."

"David?"

The younger brother suddenly stood still, seemingly lost in thought, and Clark called out in confusion.

"You can make a wish on this stone, but there will be a price to pay, and most people who make a wish will regret it."

David was brought back to his senses by Clark's call, his thoughts interrupted. Seeing that Clark had not given up his curiosity about the stone, David added another explanation.

"So, that's why Aikins turned out this way?"

Looking at Aikins's skeletal corpse, Clark felt a chill run down his spine, and his beautiful filter of fairytale treasures vanished instantly.

"This thing seems very evil."

"Or perhaps we should bury it."

The more he looked at the gruesome corpses, the more horrifying they became. He thought for a moment, then frowned and made a suggestion.

"That's not necessary."

This stone might come in handy in extremely urgent situations.

David hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and refused.

Although I am very strong, there are many things I cannot do.

"Some people can knock down a mountain with a single punch, but they can't bring an insignificant pea back to life. Our abilities are always limited. This stone can serve as a last resort."

Even though her mother, Martha, took Dionysus factor yesterday noon because she envied her husband's constant energy and high spirits due to the hot weather.

"But the immortality of the Dionysian factor is not absolute."

For example, the physical body is completely destroyed.

If something truly irreversible were to happen, he would rather summon the devil, who is called God, and make a deal with him to bring his parents back. If the devil wanted a price, then he could come to him.

Resurrecting someone might be difficult for him, but killing a god is not.

Clark hesitated, instinctively disgusted by this evil and unpredictable thing.
