American comics: Starting with gaining Spider-Man's abilities

Chapter 77 Conspiracy

Brushing away the useless dust, Li Buying pushed Constantine but didn't relax at all.

"My sense of danger tells me that an attack I cannot stop is about to strike, Doctor Fate. You'd better prepare."

Li Buying reminded Doctor Fate, who looked up at the sky upon hearing this.

He had already noticed something was wrong. The clouds that were gradually covering the sky were flashing with lightning, as if divine punishment was about to descend, not on those demons, but on them.

"Gabriel..."

Doctor Fate revealed the mastermind's name, so he naturally didn't think Gabriel could come down in person; he most likely came to the material plane through those half-breed bodies.

Since orthodox angels and demons cannot freely enter and leave the human world, those beings from Heaven and Hell need to use human bodies to move around if they want to come here.

After being used and removed or expelled, the possession of a demon or angel will bring about beneficial changes to the body of the possessed person.

Their personalities will resemble those of the beings who possess them, and they will possess various magical powers, the strength of which will be determined by the power of the angel/demon possessing them. Furthermore, the hybrids will inevitably obey the instructions of the beings who possess them.

In other words, as one of the powerful angels, the hybrid possessed by Gabriel probably still possesses immense power.

However, judging from his reluctance to show himself, he probably wanted to hide his identity, and the lightning in front of him did not have any special properties.

The thunder in the clouds had finished gathering its power. Gabriel, who was hiding in the shadows, ignored Black Adam, who was being entangled by the son of the devil, and Hawkman and Hawkgirl, who were wearing N metal. He went straight for the plane that was speeding up and trying to escape.

A terrifying magical lightning bolt descended from the sky. Before it hit the ground, Dr. Fate, reminded by Li Buying, had already raised his hand and released a magical shield!

The shield formed by Egyptian incantations enveloped the entire aircraft, but a single bolt of lightning, powerful enough to destroy several city blocks, cleaved through the shield created by Doctor Fate.

Having barely managed to defend against the attack, the dark clouds in the sky still hadn't dissipated, and continuous lightning bolts struck the plane. Doctor Fate could only struggle to hold them off. He turned back and shouted to Constantine:

"Have you found where the Spear of Destiny is!?"

The exorcist wasn't in good shape either; his whole body was radiating heat, as if he were being roasted by countless flames. Li Buying could see that Officer Dawson's pupils seemed to reflect the shadow of hell.

Just when Doctor Fate was about to give up, Constantine suddenly took a deep breath, and his soul left Hell.

Before he could speak, the Doctor of Fate, who had seen his movements, understood everything. He waved his cloak, raised his hands, and incantations wrapped around his wrists before forcefully lifting them up!

A shield unlike any before appeared. When the lightning struck, the shield did not disappear; instead, it emitted a slight electric current. Doctor Fate forcefully lifted his hand, and the lightning immediately flew back into the sky.

Li Buying could hear him pulling back his arm and panting heavily, but Doctor Fate still didn't stop, chanting incantations at high speed, causing distortions to appear around the plane.

The counter-strike lightning collided with another bolt of lightning, buying Doctor Fate time. He finished chanting the incantation and shouted:

"Adam! Hawkman and Hawkgirl! Do not release any N-metal properties or any magic-resistant forces upon contact with the aircraft!"

As their names were called out, the couple, who were locked in combat with the demon and unable to launch a wide-ranging attack, slapped their hands on the plane. The distortion phenomenon was momentarily hindered, but then restarted.

But Black Adam, who was far away, tried to knock away the demons in front of him, but as soon as he knocked one away hundreds of meters away, another would block his way again and prevent him from leaving, as if it was determined to keep him there.

"Respected Shabak sends their greetings!"

The higher demons laughed heartily. Upon hearing the name, Black Adam's eyes flashed with rage. No wonder they had immediately entangled him; the Son of Satan had probably warned these demons.

He immediately shouted, "You all go first, I'll cover the rear!"

Just as the magic was about to be activated, Black Adam still hadn't arrived. Li Buying didn't want to lose such a powerful asset, so she quietly took out the Gravity Orb, about half full, making it difficult to see.

[Mastering Gravity].

The smug demons suddenly felt a powerful repulsive force, and they all pushed each other away, causing a gap to appear.

Although Black Adam didn't know why this was happening, he suppressed his anger, scanned the demons with his eyes, and flew directly towards the twisted plane, making contact with it at the last moment.

The entire plane suddenly vanished, transported elsewhere by some kind of spatial magic, while the lightning in the sky continued to accumulate and fall, also disappearing.

……

"Fur..."

A humanoid demon stood atop his skyscraper, watching the thunder from afar. Sensing a terrifying yet sacred aura behind him, he immediately put down his cigar, turned around, and bowed respectfully.

"My lord, my master is prepared. Rest assured, we will definitely find them."

"Don't make your superiors clean up your messes all the time, understand, Balthazar."

A gentle female voice rang out, and the demon knelt on the ground, enduring the excruciating pain. His skin was scorched by the holy light, and his skin, blood, muscles, and finally even his bones gradually appeared in the air.

"...Yes, I understand."

"very good."

The light vanished instantly, and Bosersa gasped for breath. The flesh and blood scorched by the light rapidly regenerated, and its eyes dared not show any hatred.

Taking out a silver coin and toying with it to suppress its emotions, it immediately sent a message to all the demons that could get close, ordering them to find Angela Dawson at all costs.

……

At the same time, the plane carrying Li Buying appeared on the other side. Before he could even catch his breath, Doctor Fate sensed lightning chasing after him from the spatial tunnel he had created, and immediately slammed his hands on the floor.

Shields appeared both inside and outside the aircraft. This lightning bolt was stronger than the previous one. Black Adam didn't even have time to stop it before the lightning struck the entire aircraft, instantly shattering the outer shield and penetrating deep into the fuselage.

Under the influence of the thunder, Doctor Fate struggled to hold on, but the plane eventually exploded, blowing Black Adam and Hawkman and his wife several meters away.

Hawkman frantically flapped his wings to blow away the smoke, and a spherical shield protected the four of them. Doctor Fate, panting heavily, put them down.

Finding a relatively safe and open spot to rest for a while, Hawkman angrily said, "Damn it, these demons... So, did they find the location of the Spear of Destiny?"

"Found it. It's in a company run by a devil. The devil's name is... Bosersha."

The exorcist sat on a park bench and took out another cigarette to smoke.
