Become a Homelander and a Marvel superstar

As Azu's poignant declaration faded, the scene in space seemed to be slowed down.

On Friday, precise camera footage captured a heartbreaking transformation of the figure hovering before the abyss of space.

The once dazzling golden hair is losing its luster at a visible rate.

Starting from the roots, the hair gradually turned a dry, grayish-white color.

His handsome face, which always exuded confidence and composure, was rapidly losing its color, his cheeks were thin, and his eyes were sunken.

It felt as if every drop of life essence within my body was being burned wildly as fuel.

This withering is visually striking.

Like a sunflower in full bloom, it withers in an instant, just to give off one last burst of light to illuminate the darkness.

Inside the command center of VGD headquarters.

Jessica covered her mouth tightly with both hands. She tried to hold back her sobs, but the tears just wouldn't stop.

"No...don't do this..." she choked, her voice broken and incoherent, "Bastard...you didn't have to go this far..."

"Stop...please, stop..." Wanda was already kneeling on the ground, sobbing uncontrollably. "Liar...you said you'd come back..."

Missouri frontline.

"My God..." Natasha exclaimed. She had witnessed countless deaths, but never one so quickly as to wither away. "What is he doing? Is he burning his own life away?"

"It must be... some kind of forbidden power." Steve Rogers clenched his fist. "To fight against an existence of that level, he's mortgaging his future... his life."

This scene was transmitted to every corner of the earth without delay via quantum signals.

Hint! Gaining popularity...

……

The surging data stream was frantically flooding Azu's mind; the fluctuating numbers seemed even more dazzling than Igor's verbal sparring.

"The effect is... outstanding."

While maintaining that "painful yet determined" expression, Ah Zu whistled inwardly, feeling a genuine admiration for his own directorial talent.

It has to be said, the Reality Gem is truly a status symbol.

Even if the Ancient One were standing here, she probably wouldn't be able to spot the flaw in this visual effect of life passing away.

"Look at this gray hair, these sunken cheekbones, and the fine, dry, cracked texture on the skin... I deserve an Oscar for Best Visual Effects," Azu thought smugly.

"Alright, enough foreplay." Azu's eyes began to sharpen.

After all, special effects aside, the massive thing charging up in front of you is the real deal.

The chilling sense of oppression caused his spider senses to frantically send out warnings!

Now, it's time to get down to business.

"System..." Azu coldly commanded in his mind, "Activate, Injustice Form!"

"System notification: The system has detected the host's intention to activate the 'Injustice Form.' This form will continuously burn popularity points to enhance the host's overall combat power. Please check the popularity point burning rate per minute."

"Let's start with an appetizer." Azu looked at the hideous planetary head in front of him and silently counted, "10 per minute."

System prompt: Confirm command. Injustice mode activated.

System notification: "Injustice Form" is exclusive. The "Team Rally" and "Thunder Bond" states have been detected... The "Team Rally" aura has been forcibly removed. The "Thunder Bond" link has been severed.

"Damn, that's pretty domineering." Azu curled his lip slightly.

But as the lightning power surrounding him dissipated, a purer power surged from the depths of his body.

Under the camera's lens, Azu's red and blue Stars and Stripes uniform looked as if it had been soaked in ink.

The once vibrant colors have turned into a deep midnight black, and the golden eagle emblem on the chest has become grayish-white.

Pale hair, withered face, and jet-black battle suit.

A man in a black robe, representing the motherland, appeared in front of the camera.

Friday, as expected of advanced artificial intelligence, controlled Homelander One to slowly adjust its angle and, with extremely professional cinematic camerawork, delivered the poignant feeling of "a hero in his twilight years, living towards death" to every viewer through the screen.

"call……"

"Is this the power of 10 views per minute?"

Azu clenched his fist, feeling the surging power within him. He had indeed become stronger, twice as strong as his previous lightning form.

"Buzz—! Buzz—! Buzz—!"

But his spider-sense did not weaken with the increase in power; on the contrary, it continued to interfere with his nerves like an air raid siren.

"Looks like that's not enough..."

Azu looked at Igor ahead, whose energy was nearing its critical point. The destructive fluctuations, the overflowing energy alone, caused cracks in the surrounding space.

"System! Adjust the speed!"

Ah Zu gritted his teeth and roared in his heart.

"Two hundred thousand!"

The power surged again, and dark red energy patterns began to appear on the surface of the black battle suit.

The spider sensor is still alerting us.

"Four hundred thousand!"

"Eight hundred thousand!"

"One million!!"

A terrifying shockwave erupted from Azu in all directions.

But it still wasn't enough. That heart-pounding feeling told him that if they fought at that intensity, he would lose, he would die.

Azu gritted his teeth, looking at his enormous popularity points.

Although it hurts, winning beautifully is more important. Besides, today's income is already astronomical, enough for him to splurge.

"Two million points per minute!!"

Boom! ...

At this moment, Azu felt as if several exploding supernovae had been stuffed into his body.

Terrifying energy fluctuations emanated from his body, even distorting the vacuum around him.

at last……

The annoying spider-sensor alarm went silent in an instant.

"That's right."

Azu slowly raised his head, his eyes blazing with a dazzling crimson light. The light overflowed from his eye sockets, drawing two twisted streaks of light on either side of his cheeks, like burning tear tracks.

At this moment, the energy in the giant maw of Ego Star, which spans thousands of kilometers, has also accumulated to a critical point.

"Die! You lowly bug!!" Igor roared madly in his mind.

"boom--!!!"

A beam of high-energy, dark blue particles, over 100 kilometers in diameter, burst forth from the planet Ego!
