American comics: Starting with replicating Superman's talent

Chapter 218 The Ancient One's Revenge

Beheaded.

The exact time of its origin is unknown.

But the person who invented this punishment is a good example of how humans are the most cruel creatures when it comes to their own kind.

When Superman removes his biofield, he manipulates his skin to loosen and let down all his defenses.

As Diana swiftly brought down her blade, the head traced a beautiful arc through the air before rolling into the giant crater.

"Thump."

The headless body knelt on the ground, and the blood spurting from its neck stained the surrounding land red like a fountain.

Clark couldn't bear to turn his head away, while Batman watched silently.

As the out-of-control corpse crashed to the ground, it marked the end of the mission in a cruel and bloody manner.

"Next."

Gino slowly raised his hand to shield his eyes from the blazing sun overhead: "It's time to go home."

.....

At the same time that Gino and the others killed Injustice Superman.

Outside the DC multiverse.

Among the countless cosmic spheres that Gino once visited, one of them depicts the Marvel multiverse.

Within the desolate universe.

Countless enormous figures lurking within the depths of that universe are whispering amongst themselves.

Not far from these figures stood a humble, hunched-over old man with a white beard.

"Gu Yi. Yao".

A booming voice, devoid of emotion, suddenly echoed through the silent universe, coldly proclaiming: "You have lost the Cosmic Cube that keeps this universe running."

"It's very important to us, and you've let an outsider take it away from us."

"Therefore, the court has sentenced you to death!"

As the words fell, countless golden energy swords appeared around the Ancient One, floating and aimed at the old man's body.

"No, no!"

Seeing the sword closing in, the Ancient One frantically shook her head, saying, "Give me a chance! I can retrieve that gem!"

"The analysis is invalid; Gu Yi Yao's strength is insufficient to resist foreign invaders."

"No, court, please hear me!" The Ancient One cried out in desperation. The old man gritted his teeth and said, "I will use the Space Stone to search for the strongest beings in this universe and lead them to reclaim our gem."

"We could even plunder more resources from their universe!"

Like a rigid computer, the three-headed, gleaming court of life remained silent for a moment before concluding: "Acceptable."

As the words of this supreme being fell, the majestic black shadows around them gradually disappeared into the universe.

"Huff huff"

Gu Yi could hear herself breathing heavily and her heart pounding.

The old man sighed, his face full of bitterness.

He turned his head and swung his arm, drawing a golden circle in the desolate universe.

The light from the other end illuminated a spacious hall, which was Kamar-Taki, the Ancient One's residence.

As she stepped inside, Gu Yi's face was filled with bitterness.

There are countless Ancient Ones in the vast multiverse, and he happens to be the one who is most afraid of death.

He just wanted to live a good life, but those powerful people wouldn't let him have an easy time. He couldn't escape either. Gu Yi narrowed his eyes and his gaze fell on the green gem placed in the very center of the hall, guarded by intricate golden magic.

"The Time Stone".

Ancient One walked toward the gem with a complex expression.

Now, only by relying on the power of the gem can he seize a glimmer of hope for himself.

"Damn Gino Luthor." The Ancient One removed the magic circle from the gem and reached out to grasp it.

The entire hall was filled with green light.

It felt like only a second had passed, yet an eternity had also elapsed.

The lush green light exploded in the hall like fireworks.

At the same time, several figures suddenly appeared in the previously empty hall.

"Oh, damn it, where am I?"

A panicked male voice suddenly rang out.

Wearing an expensive, high-tech, gilded armor and sporting a sexy mustache, the middle-aged man, though not tall, exuded a powerful aura and shakily steadied himself.

Upon seeing the Ancient One standing in the center of the hall, a white-bearded figure exuding an otherworldly aura, the man warily raised his palms, aiming the palm cannons of his armor at her. He frowned and demanded, "Old man, where am I?"

Before he could react, a puzzled female voice rang in his ears again: "Where am I?"

The woman's voice wasn't unpleasant, which made the middle-aged man in the steel armor look towards the corner.

A woman wearing a strange red leather suit, with long, wavy red hair and large headlights, stood with her hands on her hips. Compared to the man's panic, she seemed much more composed.

But the sight of the faint red mist swirling around her fingertips proved that her identity was not simple.

"Who is it?"

Before the two could even get used to the place, another rough shout broke the silence.

"Crack!"

A torrent of lightning shattered the wooden planks beneath their feet, and a towering figure emerged from the thunder: "Who dares to mock the great Asgardian prince, Thor, the god of thunder!"

The electricity went out, and the blond, burly man wearing divine golden armor and a red cloak stared wide-eyed as he looked around.

Like the previous two, he clearly didn't understand what had happened.

Moreover, as the green light continued to flash, more and more strange figures dressed in bizarre clothes appeared in the room.

There was a strange guy dressed in a very "effeminate" purple battle suit, carrying a quiver on his back and holding a bow and arrow, and there was also a bespectacled man who looked very refined.

There was even a burly man holding a shield, looking completely bewildered, and many people present gasped in surprise upon seeing him.

"Captain America!?"

"Is it really him? But he's been dead for decades!"

(Because Gino gave Steve Amber Gold, in this universe he was unable to participate in the Serum Project, nor was he able to be frozen, and he lived to be a hundred years old before dying.)

In an instant, the crowd was thrown into chaos.

Everyone wants a reasonable explanation; they want to know what exactly happened.

"Gentlemen!"

Seeing that the superheroes she needed had all arrived, the Ancient One clasped her hands together and formed an intricate golden magic circle.

As he spoke, his aged, trembling voice clearly reached everyone's ears.

"Each of you is a superhero I brought into this universe from outside the timeline."

"I brought you here because there is a very important matter that requires your strength."

The Ancient One looked around solemnly and said, word by word, "Our universe is dying!"

"Someone has stolen the Space Stone that supports the normal functioning of this universe."

"And the culprit is a demon from another universe named Gino Luthor."

As the Ancient One recounted her story, the superheroes present finally understood how things had unfolded.

Steve Rogers, also known as Captain America, stepped forward and stood up. His tall, imposing figure and resolute face were solemn. "No need for further words," he declared. "I am willing to dedicate my strength to the survival of the universe!"

This statement seems to have some kind of magic, and more and more people are taking a step forward to express their determination.
