Godslayer in the Marvel Universe

Chapter 356 The Limitations of the Infinity Stones

Feeling that there was only a void around him, with no air, no water, and not even light, and that all matter had to flow in from the space beside him, Ang realized just how outrageous Darkseid's eye technique was.

Ang stared intently at Darkseid, his eyes wide open.

To be honest, Ang is genuinely a little scared this time.

"Darkseid! What have you done!?"

The burly Darkseid raised his head proudly, gazing at Ang, who was a hundred meters away in mid-air. His seemingly expressionless stone face grinned slightly. "Nothing much. Your Infinity Stones are indeed powerful. But you've forgotten that the power of the Infinity Stones is limited to this universe!"

Ang's pupils suddenly shrank to the size of a pinhead.

Darkseid is right.

The power of all the Infinity Stones is based on the laws of power within this specific universe. Outside of this universe, these laws mostly cease to apply.

Even if parallel universes appear to be made of the exact same material, in reality, due to subtle differences in various factors, the laws of those universes will be vastly different from those of the main universe, making them incompatible.

In another universe, the Time Stone in Doctor Strange's possession would no longer be an Infinity Stone; it might just be a pretty, ordinary gem.

It can disable the opponent's Infinity Stones with its own power.

This is the source of Darkseid's immense confidence!

"I've learned a lot!" Even in this critical moment, Ang still had the composure to give Darkseid a respectful bow.

"It doesn't matter! Your tuition is your life and soul." Darkseid pointed a thick finger at Ang.

As the words fell, the [Omega Ray] shot out once more.

However, the only response was a fleeting glint of light on Ang's left Infinity Gauntlet.

Correct!

This bullshit ray can indeed send any object to a parallel universe in an instant.

But the space you shot into is not the space you wanted. How will you deal with that, sir?

In the space between Earth and Venus, large areas of space suddenly collapsed.

This irregular spatial void appeared abruptly, creating an effect similar to a small black hole, and began to devour everything around it.

This is the landfill that Ang planned.

After he had explored the area in advance using his spatial awareness, if anything happened, he would first use the power of the Space Stone to redirect the opponent's attack to this area.

If Ang had been mentally sharp enough, he could have easily redirected Darkseid's pay-to-win Eye Beam to a much farther location, such as the ruins of Asgard.

The ability to transfer Omega rays also requires Ang's mental energy!

Even though Ang used the power of the Infinity Stones, as the one in control, he still had to pay the price in terms of mental energy.

If the relocation is too far, this deal won't be worthwhile.

Moreover, even though Ang seems to have blocked every single one of Darkseid's [Pay-to-Win Dog Eye Strike], the cost was much higher than that!

At the Earth Defense Command, the mournful voices of the monitors kept reaching the ears of the world's leaders.

"Report! Another spacequake detected in Nevada!"

"The North American continental plate has shifted again, this time by 1.78cm."

"Tsunamis have struck the eastern Pacific and western Atlantic! Initial estimates indicate wave heights exceeding 10 meters. Signs suggest the tsunami is intensifying!"

The leaders were utterly terrified, their scalps tingling and their bodies chilled to the bone.

Is this really a battle on a cosmic scale?

Even though they understood that Kratos and other powerful beings were using their power with great restraint, the aftershocks of that power were still terrifying.

This massive tremor, equivalent to an earthquake, then triggered a tsunami.

Imagine the devastation that would be felt if a tsunami generated waves exceeding 10 meters high, impacting all the countries surrounding the ocean.

Areas at lower altitudes were all affected.

Seaside villas? Unless they're like Tony Stark's villas built on cliffs, all the others are doomed.

The idea of ​​"using the power of the Space Stone to create weapons, but triggering a high-energy reaction, declaring to advanced civilizations in the universe that we are ready for advanced warfare" sounded very promising at the time, but now countless high-ranking White House officials are regretting it deeply.

"If only I hadn't provoked those killing gods."

This is the only kind of confession that high-ranking officials will make.

When things come to a head, it's too late to regret it.

All our hopes can be pinned on superhuman beings like Superman, Kratos, and Thor.

Perhaps they will fight amongst themselves in the future, but at least at this moment, the mentality of all people on Earth is surprisingly consistent—let's kill Darkseid first.

On the surface, it seemed that Ang and Darkseid were evenly matched, but only the parties involved knew the truth.

Darkseid's attacks can return, but Ang's life is in danger of ending.

Since Darkseid possesses such terrifying spatial abilities without needing the Space Stone, this makes the two sides completely unequal in status.

As long as Darkseid doesn't weaken and can't unleash another [Omega Ray], Ang wouldn't dare to recklessly take Darkseid's pay-to-win Eye Beam head-on.

"Damn it! This is still the Omega Ray without even using the Anti-Life Equation!" Ang cursed. He could easily imagine that if he were facing Darkseid in his complete form, he might not even be able to deflect the Omega Ray's attack with the power of the Space Stone.

The seemingly stalemated standoff is actually still meaningful.

After firing over thirty rounds of Omega bullets, alternating between offense and defense, Ang's eyes lit up: "Found it!"

The next moment, in the eyes of outsiders, he was multitasking.

In reality, he was staring at Darkseid, having the system help him draw power from the Infinity Gauntlet to continue resisting the Omega Rays, while he himself used his right hand to draw a circle according to the coordinates given by the system scan.

To Wang Pangzi's astonishment, Kratos, this complete outsider, was actually using Kamar-Taj spatial magic. The fat man was dumbfounded.

But the next second, a miserable-looking Doctor Strange stumbled back from the portal.

Ang smiled and said, "Welcome back to Earth."

Doctor Strange's expression was priceless. He never imagined he would be saved by Ang in this way. His refined and gentle face remained expressionless for a long time before he finally managed to utter, "Thank you."

Enough with the nonsense!

Doctor Strange began casting a spell with both hands, directly prying the Time Stone out of the Eye of Agamotto and handing it to Ang.

It's all Darkseid's fault for being so terrifying.

In the Doctor's eyes, without the six gems, even Kratos (Ang) would have a hard time competing with him.
