American comics: From Hogwarts to God on Earth

Chapter 245 The Exploding Infinity Stones

The battle has plunged this corrupt Earth into a horrific and nauseating conflict.

The former heroes finally tore off their masks, revealing their true selves. Ant-Man transformed into a giant ant, sprouting countless fungal mycelium-like tentacles, and twisted chunks of flesh constantly emerging from the end of his abdomen. These twisted chunks writh, merge with their kind, and differentiate, becoming evil monsters. The Hulk completely lost his mind; huge bone spurs grew from his head, back, and hands. Iron Man's living metal and cancerous tissue proliferated, transforming into a massive suit of flesh and blood. "Damn it!" Red Hulk roared, then threw himself into the battle. The other Hammermasters also raised their hammers, fighting desperately against their opponents.

Blood with maximum corrosive power was sprayed out, and bone spikes and nails were used as sniper bullets, fired from the corrupted eagle eyes a kilometer away. Although they could not harm the Heavenly Hammer Venerables, they were enough to make them hesitate to act.

The enraged serpent relentlessly attacked Marvel, but as the original chosen one, his strength far surpassed that of the other heroes.

In the fierce battle, blood and flesh flew everywhere, and internal organs splattered. The cancerous universe members, who were not afraid of death, died and were reborn repeatedly, while the power given to them by the multi-horned beings also increased.

The Heavenly Hammer Venerables were clearly outnumbered, and they were being overwhelmed by fatigue.

Just then, a huge spaceship flew in.

"Ugh, what a hassle!"

Marvel said angrily, shooting out cosmic energy from his hand in an attempt to blow up the spaceship, but the spaceship was clearly faster than him in launching an attack.

The two enormous energies exploded violently the moment they came into contact, and the giant snake took the opportunity to smash Marvel's newly regenerated head once again.

Faced with this constantly regenerating monster, the giant snake mainly uses blunt weapon attacks, which can inflict maximum pain on the victim and make it more difficult for them to recover.

Many people flew out of the spaceship, including most of the Avengers and X-Men.

"Need any help?" The leader was a man wearing silver-white armor. Orochi had a strong impression of his arrogant demeanor before, but he didn't remember the mortal's name—he was unworthy.

"Mortals?" The giant serpent coldly looked at the group of belated arrivals. "Be careful, just don't lose your lives."

Just recently, at Avengers Tower.

"We must push aside another Earth!" Steve keenly sensed the key point and pointed out the most important thing to do right now.

Steve carefully observed the size of the Earth, then whispered something to Iron Man before loudly announcing the bad news: "Given the size of this planet, we probably only have one chance. If we fail—"

But it's not without good news.

Red Berserkers collected all six Infinity Stones for the Avengers and X-Men. With such cosmic artifacts, they might have been able to avoid the possibility of a cosmic collision.

So the Avengers found the captured Infinity Gauntlet and the six Infinity Stones, boarded their spaceship, and arrived at the region closest to the cancerous Earth in the universe.

Upon closer inspection of the Cancer Universe, the Avengers and X-Men all wore solemn expressions, for they had already witnessed the terrifying army that had assembled within the Cancer Universe.

There's no doubt that they came with ill intentions.

One of the Avengers standing at the forefront, former Captain America Steve Rogers, picked up the gauntlet and said in a low but firm voice, "I'll do it."

Tony wanted to say something to stop Steve, but in the end he kept quiet.

No one knew Steve better than him, so Stark knew that Steve couldn't possibly delegate this task to anyone else.

When Steve picked up the Infinity Gauntlet, no one else objected. He had commanded the Avengers many times, so the Avengers members were willing to believe in Steve, and the X-Men members were also willing to believe in Steve. This is the true hero, not the title that the US government used as a political bargaining chip.

Anyone who has the title of Captain America can never be called the real Captain America.

Steve placed the gems into the slots one by one, some of which were clearly cracked.

Doctor Strange said gravely, "We have one last chance to make a decision. The power of these six Infinity Stones is enough to completely annihilate those damned evil beings on the other side, and in theory, it should also be able to prevent the collision between the two universes. Should we use—"

"No need to say anything, Doctor Strange." Steve looked at Strange and smiled. "You know, Rune asked me a similar question before. Do you know what he asked me?"

The other heroes watched Steve intently. After successfully saving the world, the name Rune had spread among the heroes.

"He asked me, 'If the world were to end, and you could escape with the other heroes, but the civilians would die, what would you choose?'"

Stark already knew the answer, but he sighed and made a funny face: "What did you answer?"

"I said, I refuse to answer this trolley question. If a trolley question were presented to me, I wouldn't press any buttons." Steve smiled, a smile that gave all the heroes hope: "Instead, I'd ram the trolley! As long as there's a possibility of survivors in another universe, I'll never give up on it!"

"Ohhhhhhh!!!"

Most of the heroes cheered, and the next moment, Steve raised the Infinity Gauntlet, and the power of the six Infinity Stones circulated. They activated simultaneously and released a rainbow-like light, which transformed into countless small beams of light, attempting to entangle another Earth and push it away.

Everything seemed to be going well, but Steve's complexion had turned quite grim.

The next moment, a blinding white light flashed, and the Reality Stone exploded first, followed by the shattering of all five other stones. With Steve's scream, the Infinity Gauntlet vanished completely. If Doctor Strange and the other heroes hadn't pulled him out at the last moment, this hero would have lost more than just his right arm.

The heroes watched in silence as the pure black unidentified substance gradually disappeared. The consequences of the six gems shattering were terrifying. In that instant, the pure black unidentified object appeared and devoured all the surrounding matter, including the earth, magical energy, oxygen, and Steve's arm.

What level of crisis is this that even the Infinity Stones couldn't stop it?

This is the common thought in the minds of all the heroes. They have realized the seriousness of the situation. Banner, in particular, pursed his lips and looked sadly at Steve lying on the ground.

The crack in the Reality Stone appeared when Hulk was imprisoned; it's all his fault.
