In front of Superman, you have no choice but to give yourself to a little girl.

Cosmic Cube Kang glanced indifferently at Wayne. Although this guy could defeat Phoenix Force Kang and could be considered a threat, he was not worth taking seriously.

He slowly raised his right hand, and the Cosmic Cube on his chest lit up faintly. He was going to eliminate this threat directly.

Buzz—The reality distortion ripples caused by the Cosmic Cube collided directly with the bio-force field!

Wayne raised an eyebrow in surprise. The Cosmic Cube's ability to modify reality actually surpassed the reality-distorting ability of Star-Eating!

Of course, the Cosmic Cube is only slightly better than Galactus when it comes to altering reality; in terms of overall strength, Galactus when he's well-fed is definitely stronger.

After all, in one universe, the Star-Eating variant was even able to fight against Doctor Doom, who was wearing "armor powered by three cosmic cubes".

At this moment, Wayne felt that his biofield was being suppressed. While using the biofield to protect himself, he probably wouldn't be able to use it to do anything else... But it doesn't matter, the biofield is just a support skill.

Wayne, whose left and right fists deal high damage, doesn't care about this small negative buff.

On the other side, Kang, the Cosmic Cube, looked even more incredulous than Wayne. His mouth gaped open and his eyes nearly popped out of their sockets—he hadn't been able to eliminate this guy outright! This was unbelievable! This was the first time he'd encountered such a situation since acquiring the Cosmic Cube!

After recovering from his shock, Cosmic Cube Kang glanced at Jean beside Wayne without making a sound, and began to consider whether to give up the Phoenix Force.

Although he was still confident of defeating Wayne, he didn't know if it was worth it for a Phoenix Force fragment. After all, there were other Phoenix Force fragments in other universes, so there was no need to fight to the death for this one.

At that moment, two teleportation portals appeared around both sides.

A dark, distorted space seemed to have been torn apart, from which the Dark Book Kang slowly emerged. However, he looked rather pitiful—his face was covered in red and purple bruises, and his body was covered with hideous cracks, from which black mist constantly drifted.

The other was an unremarkable circular portal, through which the Ancient One, with slightly dirty clothes, gracefully floated to Wayne and Jean Grey's side with his hands behind his back.

"..."

Cosmic Cube Kang and Phoenix Force Kang looked back and forth between Ancient One and Dark Book Kang, and finally stared at Dark Book Kang with the same disdain. They were both sorcerers, so why were they so lame?

Kang was furious, his face flushed. With his time technology and the Dark Book, even if he couldn't beat the Ancient One, he wouldn't be too far behind.

Who knew that this old nun would actually ask Vishanti for a loan halfway through! Whether she wanted to come and support Phoenix or not, in any case, with Vishanti's blessing, the Ancient One directly beat up Dark Book Kang. Dark Book Kang, having no other choice, could only run away to find teammates.

Feeling incredibly aggrieved, Dark God Book Kang opened his mouth as if to make a point, but ultimately couldn't bring himself to speak.

There's not much to say, really. Wizards fight by taking out loans anyway. He could borrow chaos magic from Sithon using the Dark Book, so the Ancient One could naturally borrow power from the Vishanti.

However, even so, it's definitely not my fault that I couldn't beat the Ancient One. I should blame Sithon, since he was so stingy and wouldn't lend me more money.

Why are you so late?

Seeing Phoenix unharmed, the Ancient One secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Wayne with a "you're really unreliable kid" look.

Wayne ignored the Ancient One's gaze and simply replied, "Lost."

The Ancient One didn't dwell on it too much, but turned around to look at the three Kang opposite her: the Dark Book, the Phoenix Force, and the Cosmic Cube... each one was more troublesome than the last.

With a helpless sigh, the Ancient One used mind magic to ask Wayne if he was confident he could handle the Cosmic Cube.

Wayne calmly raised his right hand and gave an "OK" sign.

Gooden breathed a sigh of relief, but then she noticed that Wayne had changed his gesture to a "V" sign.

Before she could react, Wayne withdrew his middle finger, leaving only his index finger.

In the next instant, Wayne dashed to the front of Cosmic Cube Conan at faster-than-light speed!

Crack—The time field warped and shattered! Kang, who was trying to break Wayne's biofield with the Cosmic Cube, had no time to react and was punched into the shape of a shrimp!

The Cosmic Cube Kang was instantly sent flying backward, traversing countless galaxies at nearly 10 to the power of 15 times the speed of light.

However, this time the reality barrier was not broken because Wayne did not use the biofield to suppress it, but instead used his superhuman belief to simply deny the possibility.

Looking at Wayne floating quietly not far from him, Phoenix Force silently retreated—if he beats him up, he can't beat me up anymore.

Wayne glanced at Dark Book Kang... Dark Book Kang calmly looked away, he hadn't seen anything.

After giving the Ancient One a look, signaling her to take good care of Jean, Wayne instantly accelerated to nearly 10 to the power of 16 times the speed of light and continued his pursuit of the Cosmic Cube Conan.

After the two left, the surrounding atmosphere became quiet again.

Dark Book Kang and Phoenix Force Kang warily stared at the Ancient One and Jean opposite them.

While Jean was a little nervous, the Ancient One was completely unfazed—with a Dark Tome Kang with low health, plus a Phoenix Force Kang who was almost crippled after being slapped by Wayne, and with another Phoenix Force on her side, she couldn't imagine how they could lose!

However, just in case, the Ancient One still put several layers of shields on Jean, including the kind that Dark Strange gave to his teammates in "What If" to block the attack of Ultron with the six gems.

……

Two hands emerge from a massive, sunken crater in the wreckage of a planet that is mostly broken.

Snap—Cosmic Cube Kang pried himself out of the wrecked planetary debris.

He bit his dry lips, his abdominal armor completely shattered, leaving a gaping, bloody hole that looked incredibly gruesome.

As the faint light flickered, the abdomen of the Cosmic Cube Kang was restored to its original state.

Kang looked down at the Cosmic Cube emitting a faint glow on his chest—it seemed to have defended itself without his control when the punch landed.

Otherwise, if he hadn't taken Wayne's punch, he might have been instantly turned into a blood mist by "Blood Escape".
