American comics: From Hogwarts to God on Earth

Chapter 573: Seemingly a brush with death, but actually a cross of the lines in the Book of Life and Death

The concentrated Omega energy was released instantly, and wherever it passed, even space itself was erased, leaving a black crack that could not be healed for a long time. This crack began to make a huge sound and began to absorb other things to fill its emptiness.

This dark lord's idea was simple: since you can evolve on your own, why don't I just erase your concept from the multiverse?

Rune did not dodge.

First, Rune had already taken direct hits from the Omega Rays and had developed a certain level of resistance to them. Second, he knew that he had extremely high resistance to this type of concept erasure ability.

That's right, transmigrators from higher dimensions have this privilege.

The red line that pierced through space struck Rune's chest, but instead of exploding, it was absorbed into the air like water droplets falling into a sponge.

Rune's body instantly turned a translucent dark red, revealing his internal organs clearly, while the clothes he created with shadows vanished the moment they came into contact with the Omega Rays.

This dark mage's internal organs are completely different from those of ordinary people. In order to avoid his weaknesses, almost all of his internal organs have disappeared. Rather than saying that Rune is human, it is more accurate to say that he is half an energy creature.

Clark watched calmly and indifferently as the Omega energy raged and spread within Rune's body, attempting to dismantle the mage at the most fundamental particle level.

Countless fine cracks appeared on the surface of Rune's body, like porcelain about to shatter, and he even knelt on the ground.

This should be over. The dark lord thought to himself.

To date, he has not seen any concept of any organism that can survive under the full force of the Omega Effect.

However, it turned out that Clark was wrong.

Rune's resistance to the Omega Effect relies not only on Doomsday, especially since the Doomsday bloodline he possesses is a degraded version. Don't forget, he also has Wolverine's bloodline.

While this bloodline is indeed less powerful than Doomsday's, the original Wolverine bloodline allows him to heal himself over time as long as his body isn't completely destroyed. Even if only his head is left, Wolverine can breathe through his skin.

In the movie, Wolverine also used his healing factor to withstand the Phoenix Force and endure the energy of time and space. Even though Rune inherited a weakened version of Wolverine's bloodline, when combined with Doomsday's bloodline, it still achieved a synergistic effect greater than the sum of its parts.

The Omega Rays released at full power were indeed powerful, but Rune's body was also reconstructing the eliminated parts in an extremely illogical way.

Indeed, a certain part of its existence has disappeared conceptually, but this is merely a part of the drawing that has been erased. The Doomsday bloodline and the Wolverine bloodline choose to pick up the pen and continuously rewrite the content on the blank paper.

These new drawings they created had been transformed from pencil sketches into oil paintings, and it would be difficult for Clark to erase them with an eraser.

When Rune stood up again, he seemed to have grown even larger, and the previously inconspicuous bone spurs and scales had become numerous and ferocious, which solved another of Rune's troubles.

His clothing couldn't keep up with the strength of himself and his enemies, and thus always vanished in battle. Given the enemies Rune was currently facing, even the levitation cloak would likely be insufficient to serve as his clothing.

Fortunately, these bone scales and bone spikes unexpectedly generated a light yet tough armor for him during this battle. Symbols resembling magical runes appeared on this keratinous layer, shimmering with a dark red light, and the dark power within his body surged within it.

Intuition told Rune that these runes were naturally evolved by the Doomsday bloodline in the process of fighting against Omega energy, runes specifically designed to defend against such powerful forces.

"Do you have any other tricks up your sleeve?" Rune asked calmly, seemingly having just escaped death but actually having his name erased from the Book of Life and Death. Though outwardly calm, his heart was burning with rage.

Although I've developed antibodies against the Omega effect, I still feel pain after being attacked, damn it! Not to mention, Clark actually dared to desecrate the hero's body, which makes it even more unforgivable.

Clark, facing the mage directly, narrowed his eyes slightly. His figure transformed into a bolt of black lightning, sending the mage flying into the sky.

Mount Hyjal is the location where the portal opens; it must never become the site of my duel with Rune.

Little did they know, Rune also didn't want to fight on Mount Hyjal. This was the location of the Well of Eternity, a wound on Azeroth, and the World Tree was the scab that had formed on that wound. If a fight broke out here, they might accidentally blow up the Well of Eternity.

Originally, Azeroth consisted of only one continent, Kalimdor. However, during the War of the Ancients, to prevent Sargeras from entering Azeroth, Malfurion destroyed the Well of Eternity.

The power contained within the well then erupted and tore apart the continent of Kalimdor. The explosion completely pulverized 80 percent of the land, and the whirlpool spun eternally on the sea, lamenting Malfurion's brutality.

To be honest, even Rune couldn't imagine what would happen if Azeroth blew up another Well of Eternity. So, he feigned compliance in the face of Clark's attack.

Anyway, this fallen Superman can hardly hurt himself anymore.

Clark was unaware of this, and he launched faster-than-light attacks around Rune. Each punch carried enough kinetic energy to shatter an asteroid, and each strike was precisely aimed at Rune's throat, chest, and other vital areas.

These are the weaknesses of mortal bodies, but not of Rune's. Moreover, during the long battle, Rune was pleasantly surprised to find that his body was learning and adapting.

Aside from absorbing the martial arts skills of the Assassin Brotherhood members, he never learned any other martial arts.

But when he faced this fallen superman who had learned Kryptonian combat techniques and had fought in the multiverse for countless years, these skills quickly became integrated into his body. Rune even learned the power techniques of this dark lord.

Soon, Rune was able to hold his own against Clark, and the two beings engaged in a battle beyond human comprehension in orbit around Azeroth. Every collision between them created a miniature black hole, and every release of energy distorted the structure of reality.

"You know what?" Rune even had time to chat during the battle.

In contrast, Clark on the other side seemed to be struggling much, and it was already quite clear who was stronger and who was weaker.

"I'm a mage, not good at killing opponents directly with physical means," Rune's voice clearly reached Clark's ears through the vibration of magic, "but today, I'm going to kill you anyway."

"Only in this way can I vent the anger in my heart—"
