I became light in American comics.

Chapter 114 is entirely a tribute.

Apollo, one of the twelve Olympian gods, is also the god of the sun.

Okay, this differs slightly from some myths. Some say that the true sun god in the pantheon should be Helios, while Apollo was originally just the god of light, and gradually became one with Helios in later myths.

But none of that matters. For Shen You, the only thing that matters in the current world is the standard of the DC universe, and clearly, in this universe, Apollo is the sun god.

This is the purple-faced man who appeared in front of them at that moment.

Shen You knew this, of course. He had obtained a Sun God's Energy Stone from the old wizard, which he later modified into part of the mobile armor's energy system.

"Apollo." Diana's expression stiffened slightly when she saw him.

"Yes, one of your chief gods, the Amazons. But considering that a part of your blood flows with ours, I will forgive your lack of manners," Apollo said.

Unlike Hephaestus, who was dressed in the style of a traditional craftsman, the sun god was dressed like a modern gentleman, and his speech had the elegance of a high-society person. It seems that this god has integrated quite well into modern human society.

"But there's one thing I have to say, I really can't compliment your taste in friends." Apollo landed in front of Diana with his hands behind his back. "I don't understand why you always like to hang out with mortals."

First the pilot, then the female archaeologist? I heard you've become enemies.

He was clearly referring to Steve Trevor and Cheetah, both of whom are among the most important characters in the Wonder Woman story.

"Watch your words, Apollo," Diana said coldly.

"Alright, alright, let's not talk about that. But what about this mortal?" Apollo looked at Shen You with disdain. "This thing isn't even human. It's some strange creature from a star."

Shen You: "."

"To be honest, sister, I don't want to tell you what to do. But Olympus has its rules; if something dirty gets into the house, I have to get it out."

Apollo walked up to Shen You, his golden eyes narrowing. Golden light spilled from the corners of his eyes, looking like some kind of transparent flame, as if containing an unyielding anger.

"A strange creature hiding in a shell. What, are you afraid to show your true face?" Apollo chuckled mockingly.

"That's not it," Shen You said calmly, looking directly at him. "To be honest, this shell is to prevent you from getting hurt."

"Ha, quite the boast."

Apollo's expression hardened, and he snapped his fingers.

Shen You saw a "Abnormal Gravity" warning suddenly pop up on the display screen in front of him, and the next moment his body was uncontrollably thrown backward. As if an invisible hand had thrown him and his armor into the scorching furnace behind him, molten lava-like liquid burst out of the furnace, accompanied by a wave of heat that hissed and steamed.

"Stop right there!"

Diana teleported to Apollo and grabbed him by the collar: "What have you done? Release my friend!"

Apollo, though being held by the collar, remained as elegant as a gentleman: "Don't blame me, sister, he brought this on himself. This is what happens when you dare to defy the gods."

Before the words were even finished, a voice rang in their ears.

"No need for him, Diana."

The scorching magical magma poured down, and a red-silver body slowly emerged from the heatwave. Magma rolled over his body, and his round eyes seemed to glow with a golden, fiery light.

Hephaestus adjusted the large goggles on his nose, the lenses reflecting his red and silver body covered in rolling lava, his face full of bewilderment.

"My furnace. How could he?"

That's the furnace of the Vulcan!

Even he himself—the god of fire on Olympus—didn't dare jump in like that. Countless divine artifacts had been produced from this furnace. How could anyone emerge from it unscathed?

The figure above the furnace vanished in the next moment.

With a speed beyond everyone's imagination, a blurry red and silver afterimage flashed through the air and a powerful punch locked onto Apollo's nose and slammed into him head-on!

Apollo's expression changed, and without thinking, he immediately raised his arm to block.

He was just as fast as ordinary people, but from Shen You's perspective, the action of raising his arm to block was like a slow-motion shot.

Shen You feinted a punch at the front, then shifted his body, circled halfway around the Sun God's body, and landed behind him, unleashing a supersonic Soul-Severing Liver-Exploding Fist that struck the Sun God's waist and abdomen.

Apollo grunted, staggered, and his defensive stance immediately relaxed. Taking advantage of the moment, Shen You turned and punched him in the face from the left.

His face contorted from the impact, and a burst of golden flame, like blood, sprayed from his mouth. The explosive force of his punch sent Apollo crashing through several walls, tumbling and flying a great distance.

Seeing the body that suddenly appeared in front of her, so fast that she could barely see it with her dynamic vision, Diana couldn't help but show a look of surprise.

Suddenly I think I understand why my mother asked him to help her.

"Sorry for your house." Shen You withdrew his fist and turned to Hephaestus beside him.

Hephaestus finally snapped out of his shock at being sent flying by a single punch, then adjusted his goggles and laughed heartily.

"It's nothing. I was already planning to renovate anyway."

Suddenly, I felt that Vulcan had become much more polite and courteous.

"Foolish creature!"

A loud shout, seemingly carrying heat, erupted, and the instant the sound exploded, a visible golden heat wave swept over.

An entire wall collapsed with a deafening roar as a massive, purple fist slammed through it. Apollo, who had suddenly grown to over forty meters tall, seemed to have heatwaves burning in his eyes, and his rage materialized into flames that spewed from his mouth and nose.

The Olympian gods were, after all, descendants of the Titans, and still retained some Titan blood within them. Becoming larger when outmatched was standard practice.

"How dare you defy me? I am the sun! Feel the wrath of the sun god!"

The heatwave transformed into light, a kind of solar impact!

At Shen You's current speed, he should be able to dodge in time.

It's possible, but unnecessary.

With his super-reaction and quantum brain, he quickly analyzed and assessed the threat, and came up with a solution in the blink of an eye.

Do nothing.

So everyone saw Shen You stand still, unmoving, and withstand the impact of the Sun God. The surging golden divine power transformed into a huge vortex, rolling and pouring into the azure crystal on his chest.

Golden light surged in, and an even more powerful energy erupted from Shen You's body. He was coated in a layer of golden light, and his size suddenly increased dramatically, growing taller than Apollo in a single breath!

Apollo's eyes widened, shimmering with golden light, and his purple face seemed to be etched with a single word—

How?

He grew bigger after I fired at him?

The harder you try, the more comfortable he feels, right?

Shen You couldn't help but chuckle. This scene seemed strangely familiar. A long time ago, Apollo in the comics used the exact same move to blast Superman, and Superman reacted similarly when he saw the Superman's battery level surge.
