Marvel: Starting with the Glint-Glint Fruit

These were rules that Reicher and Natasha had established long ago.

Velasco was bound by an agreement with the Emperor, which he could not break, but he still managed to use some clever tricks within the rules.

He didn't personally take action against the three major warbands; what good would it do to simply expand his territory?

However, with the map expanding, the territories previously conquered by the three major war groups become less significant.

As long as the other party is willing, their territory can expand indefinitely, and not just from the edges, but by stretching it across the lands of the Dark Fortress and their territory.

Simply put, no matter how fast they expand, they can't close the gap with the Dark Fortress.

The time cost of advancing to the Dark Fortress has been infinitely increased.

Rachel and Natasha aren't afraid of a protracted war, but the problem is they can't accept this kind of protracted war.

"So we have to find a way to stall Velasco."

Rachel placed the coffee cup on the table, crossed his arms, and rested one hand on his chin.

"have a thought?"

Natasha raised her eyebrows, then, as if she had thought of something, exchanged a glance with Reicher and said in unison, "The Heart of Prometheus."

“That’s right, this thing is the core of the entire Hell Frontier, it’s of utmost importance. If we want to cause him some trouble and distract him, this thing is the best bait.”

Lei Che's lips curled up.

"But we don't know where that thing is. We need to find its exact location first."

Natasha shook her head.

Matthew revealed the information about the Heart of Prometheus to the two of them, but the problem was that neither of them knew where it was.

It's said that this thing is in a secluded cave deep within the surface of Hell's Borderlands, but Hell's Borderlands is too vast, and the time cost of finding it would be too high.

“We don’t need to deliberately find it; we just need to show that we know about it and are looking for it, and Velasco won’t sit still.”

Raiche lowered his hands, placed them on the holographic projection, and swiped them to the sides.

It revealed an almost spherical structure.

This is the border of hell.

The physical nature of Limbo is not a spherical planet, but a magical pocket dimension.

The magic simply simulates a flat, continuous surface and gravity similar to a planet, giving it the visual feel of a real planet.

In addition to the surface, there are two layers below: a middle layer and a bottom layer, which is a core independent abyss cave.

Chapter 300 The Powerful Door-Door Fruit (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

"Look, the middle level is a network of crisscrossing underground tunnels and demon caves. Further down is the core area. Although the Abyss Core Cave is huge, it is much smaller than the Middle City."

Under Reicher's control, the 3D holographic projection was divided into three sections.

"But it's still huge, we need to send people who are very sensitive to magical elements."

"Nidi can't move."

Natasha's alluring eyes flickered slightly as she immediately began to formulate a plan, quickly ruling out Nydy.

Nitty is the chapter commander of the entire Grey Knights, the core of the Grey Knights' command and control, and cannot leave her casually.

Once she leaves, the movement of the Grey Knights on the main battlefield will be somewhat hampered.

After all, the combined magical skill of Nydy and Jennifer is second only to Matthew and Wanda.

"It has to be Wanda."

"But she needs to have a team on the surface, and the number of people can't be too big."

Natasha emphasized the word "overtly".

Reicher immediately understood.

"You want Wanda to lure Velasco out and then take control of him?"

"Hmm, this is the border of hell after all, and Velasco has a lot of dark magic. We need to put some insurance on Wanda. If she has the ability to interfere with the portal, it will be too late for us to rescue her."

Natasha took all the potential problems into account.

Raiche agreed.

He had figured out what methods Natasha was going to use.

"Dominoes?"

“Hmm, her abilities combined with the Door-Door Fruit could give Velasco a big surprise.” Natasha grinned mischievously.

Door fruit.

It is a rather unique space-type Devil Fruit among all Devil Fruits.

Initially, this thing was given to the technology department by Matthew along with the Gluttony Fruit. The Gluttony Fruit was eaten by Gabriel, the then head of the materials department.

The Door-Door Fruit, however, is being studied.

However, the Ministry of Science and Technology concluded that this thing is difficult to study, and that it is easy to destroy this Devil Fruit if one is not careful.

So, with Reicher's final approval, the prize was awarded to Domino, a member of the Grey Knights at the time.

Domino is a mutant whose ability is to actively manipulate probability, an ability that has a touch of mysticism.

In combat, Domino has really mastered the art of using this ability.

When he was sparring with the other Grey Knight combat cultivators, he was completely overwhelmed by their attacks.

What makes the Door-Door Fruit special is that it has its own set of operating rules.

It can transform any object it touches into a door of any shape, and can open passages in the air, flames, and even on the surface of the human body.

In combat, use "revolving doors" to twist the opponent's body and use air doors to perform spatial jumps to evade attacks.

The fruit's ability combines offense, defense, and mobility. The green alternate dimension it opens can serve as a teleportation path or a temporary refuge, and it leaves no trace when closed.

At the time, Nydia even specifically tested the Door-Door Fruit, using many methods to interfere with space in an attempt to prevent Domino from opening it.

The results showed that this thing could largely ignore spatial interference, and its stability was ridiculously strong.

It is considered one of the biggest trump cards within the entire Grey Knights organization.

Even if Velasco could interfere with space in the real world to prevent Kamar-Taj's magical teleportation from opening, the internal space of the Door-Door Fruit created by Domino would not be affected.

This is a very independent internal spatial dimension.

This is equivalent to directly creating a small internal dimension.

This dimension can be used as an anchor point. A magical portal can be opened inside, using the dimensional space within the Door-Door Fruit as a transit station. Domino can then open a door, allowing support to exit through this door.

Even though Velasco found Wanda and her group and forcibly interfered with space, the presence of dominoes was still useless.

That's why Natasha said she wanted to have an insurance policy.

“Then let’s do it this way. The candidates are Wanda, Domino, Pietro, and Skye.”

Raiche decisively selected the members.

“It seems Velasco will really enjoy the surprise we’ve prepared for him,” Natasha chuckled.

.........

Matthew was surprised by the two guys who suddenly showed up at his door.

He looked around at his surroundings; it was his Terra capital manor, though he hadn't yet set up a magical barrier because he was still developing it.

How did these two guys have the nerve to come knocking on our door?

"At this time, are you here to gather information? Mephisto, Lilith."

Matthew, dressed in a white shirt and trousers, sat on the sofa and only spoke after watching the maid serve tea and fruit to the man and woman in front of him.

That's right, it was Mephisto and Lilith who suddenly came knocking on their door that day.

The fact that two big shots from hell would come knocking at this time clearly couldn't be a simple visit.

Matthew's tone was neither good nor bad.

However, Mephisto and Lilith felt a chill run down their spines, as they could clearly sense the increasingly intense and terrifying aura emanating from Matthew.

The concept of authority is indescribable, intangible, yet undeniably real.

The fact that Matthew could intimidate a demon lord and Lilith, who is in the top tier of demon lords, shows that as Terra develops and his own strength grows, his prestige is also accumulating day by day.

"of course not."

Mephisto wore an innocent expression, though it looked rather awkward for an old man in human form to wear such an expression.

Lilith's human projection, on the other hand, is more eye-catching.

This succubus is too good at it.

You could say she's the epitome of allure, even surpassing Natasha in that regard.

Every word, every action, every glance she takes carries a captivating allure. Even the most determined man would be seduced by her gaze and fall at her feet on the spot.

Matthew ignored it.

This succubus is even more of a player than Aquaman. In ancient times, she seduced countless men and fathered countless mixed-race children.

He has obsessive-compulsive disorder related to cleanliness.

Matthew stared quietly at Mephisto, making Mephisto feel uneasy. He quickly explained his purpose.

"Terra's war on the border of Hell has caused a stir in Hell. That place has been eyed by many demon lords, but no one expected you to suddenly come knocking on their door."

"This is not a good thing for you and Terra."

"So I want to make a deal with you."

Matthew remained expressionless, his eyes only flickering slightly.

"Will they participate?"

"Perhaps they will test the waters."

Matthew nodded silently.

He had considered the commotion in Hell before waging war on the border of Hell, and even the birdmen in Heaven had considered it.

The latter is not something to rush into for the time being.

Because Heaven dares not intervene casually these days, as doing so could easily trigger alarm and hostility from the entire Hell.

Compared to Matthew, Hell is more hostile and wary of Heaven.

What do you want to trade?

"Release my dear son," Mephisto said, making a deal that greatly surprised Matthew.

......

Thank you to the generous contributor "Galaxy Star Lord" for the 500 VIP points, and thank you again to the contributor "Walking in the Clouds 0" for the 1000 VIP points. I'm so grateful to you all, I can only repay you with a massive update.

Chapter 301 Astartes Quicksilver (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Seeing Matthew's surprised expression, Mephisto shook his head.

“I’m wary of him, but now I need him too.”

Mephisto made this choice based on the situation.

Although he and Wu Xinmo were father and son, they were kind and filial, but secretly they both wished they could kill each other.

Previously, Mephisto would never have paid any attention to the Heart Demon.

By allowing the Witchheart Demon to be imprisoned by Matthew, Matthew gained a target whose power was constantly growing, and Mephisto lost one of his most pressing threats who was single-mindedly trying to overthrow him.
