Lord of Cinder in American Comics

"All of these problems are concentrated in one person. How can such a person have good credit? Even your bank wouldn't lend money to such a person."

Although the greedy person's expression cannot be seen, anyone can hear the sarcasm in their words.

Fury's face was dark, and although he was already dark-skinned, it was even darker now. He remained silent for a long time without saying a word.

Finally, Fury gave in and said, "I can agree to that, but what do you need that faster-than-light engine for?"

"Mephisto funded the First and Second World Wars on Earth in order to strengthen his Hell, while I am here to prevent Mephisto from gaining more power."

Fury raised his head, speaking with a somewhat condescending tone, and said, "So you're a pacifist after all?"

"No, it's just to raise the price. There are interstellar collectors looking for all sorts of novel items, and I think this will fetch a good price."

When the greedy man mentioned the interstellar collector, Fury recalled the information Captain Marvel had occasionally given him: there was indeed such a person, possessing endless life and wealth, who loved collecting all the rare and precious items in the universe.

Unexpectedly, the greedy could actually establish a connection with him. Given that the transaction takes place in interstellar space, the greedy must also have access to the universe.

This made Fury even more concerned about greedy people, determined to keep them under surveillance.

"Wait here, I'll go get the things."

After saying that, Fury turned and left the room.

But in the perception of the greedy, Fury simply closed the door, stood at the doorway, took out his phone from his pocket, and sent some messages.

Not long after, a Skrull dressed entirely in a ghastly green color emerged from around the corner and handed Fury a USB drive.

Fury accepted the USB drive, turned around, pushed open the door, and entered the room of the greedy man.

At this moment, the greedy one is asleep in the posture of a thinker, and a huge snot bubble even appears on the treasure chest, growing larger and smaller with his breathing.

Fury tossed the USB drive in his hand, smashing the greedy man's snot bubble. The snot bubble burst with a crisp sound like a balloon popping.

The sound startled the greedy man, who then saw the USB drive being thrown at him and frantically tried to catch it.

Fury, somewhat annoyed by the farce unfolding before him, said, "Can you talk now?"

"Although I haven't verified it yet, I can barely tell you about it first."

Clearing his throat, the Greedy One began to tell Fury the story of the Dark Tower in his melodious voice.

"That tower is the Dark Tower?"

"Yes."

"If the tower is destroyed, will the world be destroyed?"

"It's not that serious, but it's still something."

"And now there's this guy who's invulnerable to swords and spears and has an immortal body who wants to do this?"

"Yes, that's right, all correct! Congratulations, you got them all right."

The greedy man pulled out confetti from somewhere and threw it all over the sky, then fired a confetti cannon at Fury. Tiny confetti sprayed all over Fury, but none of it landed on his bald head.

Ignoring the clown's antics, Fury turned and walked out of the room, closing the door behind him. To prevent the clown from escaping, he even electrified the entire room.

“Pierce, we’re in big trouble.”

After leaving his secret base, Fury called his old superior, Alexander Pierce, who was now a member of the Security Council, to report the news he had just received.

Meanwhile, Pierce was at home planning his grand scheme for Hydra's future when he suddenly received news that Fury's world was about to be destroyed.

'How can it be that before Hydra has even controlled the world, someone wants to destroy it? I won't allow it! Hydra will never allow it!'

While verifying the authenticity of Fury's report, Pierce opened a satellite map and looked at the towering skyscraper on the outskirts of New York that was almost poking out of the Carmen Line. Pierce had no choice but to believe what Fury said.

Pierce hastily issued an investigation order to Fury, then immediately opened Hydra's internal communications.

"Guys, we're in big trouble."

The others, awakened by Pierce's commotion, assumed that Hydra's rise to power had been exposed upon hearing his opening remarks. Baron Strucker's hand was already about to press his evacuation button.

"We must stop the world from being destroyed."

Pierce's next words brought the other panicked people back to their places, waiting for Pierce's explanation.

He sent Fury's intelligence to each leader and showed the others a satellite map of New York at that moment to corroborate his claims.

Upon witnessing the truth, all the Hydra leaders wore grim expressions. Someone had actually dared to destroy the world before Hydra gained control.

Baron Zemo pointed to the men in black fighting Ash on the satellite map and said, "I won't allow it. Kill this guy."

"Kill this guy who's trying to steal our fruit," Lady Viper declared.

“Take him down. If that doesn’t work, I can do it myself,” Crossbones added.

Thus, Hydra reached an agreement before the world was destroyed.

Chapter Sixty-Nine: Constantine Arrives

Ash originally planned to use Wrath of the Gods to crush this guy, but after receiving news of the Greedy One's clone, Ash changed her mind.

At this moment, the skies above the battlefield are filled with satellites from all countries with space reconnaissance capabilities, and showcasing some unique skills is enough.

Every country will inevitably have some talented individuals, but their strength won't be too great. Further down the line, as more abilities are displayed, some countries will perceive the threat not as the Men in Black, but as Ash.

Fortunately, the Lothric Knight Sword in his hand was the lowest-grade, unenhanced weapon, so there was no need to replace it.

Jumping away from the man in black, Ash put her left hand, which was holding the Holy Bell, behind her back and gave a coded signal to the positions behind her.

After seeing Ash's actions through the binoculars, Ghost immediately dropped the binoculars and jumped onto the tank next to him.

The gunner was pushed aside, and the Ghost took over the gunner's position.

Ghost aimed the cannon at Ashe's left shoulder, awaiting Ashe's signal.

Suddenly, Ash plunged her knight's sword directly into the black-clad man's foot. Although the black-clad man was now able to defend against some damage, his foot was still pinned to the ground by the knight's sword.

As Ash moved, the Ghost inside the tank also pressed the fire button.

A fin-stabilized discarding sabot armor-piercing round swept across the battlefield, grazed Ash's left shoulder, and directly blew up the man in black's head.

Everyone watched as the man in black's head exploded, and his body swayed and fell onto the shoulder of the Siege Assault Beast.

Everyone present, including those observing via satellite, cheered.

However, the cheers had barely been uttered when the man in black struggled to his feet again.

He struggled to pull his foot off Ash's knight's sword, the sword having cleaved his foot into two Y-shaped pieces of flesh.

The headless body slowly regained its balance, straightened up, and faced the tank behind Ash.

"What the hell?" Ghost in the tank's sights cursed aloud as he looked at the scene before him.

The shattered head and flesh slowly gathered in front of the man in black, eventually forming a boiling mass of flesh and blood.

The mass of flesh gradually collapsed and regenerated, eventually forming a deep red, cone-shaped spearhead.

The crimson spear created a sonic boom cloud on the spot and headed straight for the tank in the center of the position.

"Abandon the vehicle!"

Ghost had already given the order to abandon the vehicle when the spear was pointed at him, but before the crew could react, the crimson spear was already in front of the tank.

A tremendous bombardment erupted in the center of the position, the shockwave making all the soldiers on the ground feel as if the earth was shaking. The smoke from the impact enveloped the entire tank.

As the smoke gradually dissipated, a man and a woman appeared in front of the tank riding two huge dire wolves, with two more dire wolves guarding them on either side. They lowered their bodies and howled at the men in black on the battlefield.

Constantine held up a round shield engraved with blue patterns and stood in front of the tank. The blood-red spear struck the round shield but was deflected.

Aside from creating a huge sound and shockwave, all that was affected was the spear that was bounced back.

The crimson spears blasted a blackened area into the front of the tanks on the battlefield, corroded by the crimson explosions.

At this moment, the battlefield's attention shifted to Constantine, who was holding up his shield.

[Sacred Flower Shield: An ancient White Cult treasure known as the "Mage Slayer." The blooming flowers depicted on its surface symbolize sacred fire. It possesses a high magic damage reduction rate. Combat Art: Spell Parry. By timing and parrying attacks correctly, a fatal blow can be delivered. This combat art can be used with either hand. It can also reflect spells.]

Fortunately, no one was foolish enough to stand in front of a tank, and Constantine's defense did not cause any damage to his own side.

Exhaling his cigarette and putting the round shield back into his pocket, Constantine tossed the small box containing wolf bone ash to Natasha, saying, "Little girl, the battles ahead are not for you. Find somewhere to stay and don't cause any trouble."

"There's one more thing. Go call your idiot superior and ask him if he can offer any help."

After saying that, Constantine walked toward the center of the battlefield.

Without hesitation, Natasha left the four dire wolves on the scene to provide support, and ran to the rear of the battlefield to find a high-powered radio to provide as much firepower as possible for the current battle.

Even just by looking at their positions, everyone on the battlefield knew that the two were there to help. Without the slightest hesitation, they opened a path for Natasha to the rear.

Right after the crimson spear was blasted out, the black-clad man's head began to regrow on its own, returning to its original state in just a few seconds.

Regaining his elegant demeanor, the man in black spoke slowly and deliberately: "You are quite good, or rather, you are quite good. I'll give you a chance to serve me, to sacrifice this world to my Lord, and He will grant you even greater power."

The man in black attempted to persuade a Lord of Cinder through words, but before Ashe could reply, a fireball struck his newly healed face.

[Fireball: A fire-based technique unique to sorcerers. They can throw fireballs. These fiercely burning fireballs explode upon contact, inflicting fire damage on surrounding enemies. Only after learning about fireballs will a sorcerer begin to understand that sorcery is the worship of fire.]

The fireball exploded, igniting the entire space where the man in black was located. Ash had no choice but to retreat to a distance with her sword to avoid the intense heat generated by the fire.

Constantine kept generating new fireballs in his hands and throwing them into the location of the man in black.

The dazzling light from the flames forced everyone watching the battle to close their eyes.

The fireballs kept exploding, even melting the metal shell of the siege assault beast beneath the man in black's feet.

“This is a provocation against Patrick. I will sacrifice you all to my master.”

A voice came from the flames, and then a skeleton, burned to a black skeleton, stepped out, shielding Constantine's fireballs with one hand.

The man in black, or rather, Patrick, with his eyes gleaming red, stepped out of the area covered in flames.

The moment he stepped out of the flames, tender pink buds began to grow and spread on his body, eventually covering his entire body.

Before long, a brand new body reappeared, and the flesh buds even thoughtfully provided Patrick with new clothes so that he wouldn't have to fight naked.
