As Homelander In Multiverse

[🎉 Shoutout to Alan, Guleid & Simone for joining patreon. Thank you very much.🤗]

Hawaii.

In the Osborne villa.

Azul sat on the sofa, savoring the wine offered by Norman Osborne.

On a large screen in front of him, footage of Martin wreaking havoc was playing.

This was the scene he obtained by manipulating the national satellite using his 'Information Domination' ability.

Gwen, wearing a Spider-Man mask, stood to Azul's left, her eyes wide open behind the mask.

Just moments ago, Martin had effortlessly slaughtered an entire army as if they were chickens and dogs, and then summoned an army of the undead for himself.

Such a person was like a god from legends!

Gwen, who had initially gained superhuman powers and was full of confidence, now began to doubt.

Could such a being really be fought and defeated, or even killed?

"How about it."

"Isn't it terrifying."

Azul looked at the TV screen and smiled, "This is only 50% of his strength. Otherwise, it would be even more horrifying."

As he spoke, Azul took a sip of the fine wine in his glass.

He himself didn't find it particularly concerning.

The strength Martin was displaying now was similar to when Azul first entered the multiverse and faced 'monsters' like Superman and Doomsday.

The tricky part about Martin was that black book.

It was unclear whether it was an ordinary object or a divine artifact.

Indeed, using human armies to test him still couldn't reveal Martin's full strength.

"Take a good look."

"Soon, you'll be facing such a monster-level opponent."

Azul put down his wine glass and stood up, "You'd better be prepared to be killed."

"I'm not joking with you."

Norman Osborne's eyes were filled with terror. He had barely escaped death once.

As someone who controlled a business empire, he was unwilling to die just like that.

But then, Azul's voice echoed in his mind.

"Even if you want to fight him."

"After I die, he will find you and kill you."

"However."

"Before that, I should probably twist your head off first."

Norman Osborne shivered.

Mr. John can actually speak in my mind.

Does that mean he can know all my thoughts?

Old Osborne quickly lowered his head and said respectfully, "My life was given by Mr. John."

"I will fight to the death for Mr. John."

Hearing Old Osborne's declaration, Gwen also spoke from behind her mask, "Although that man is terrifying, I will not retreat."

"When I decided to walk this path, I already knew what I would face."

"But no matter what, I cannot forgive what he has done."

"Blood debts must be repaid in blood!"

Old Osborne glanced at Gwen. He didn't know who she was, but he knew she was brought back by Azul.

Azul nodded and said, "Go and prepare."

"Human armies are no match for him."

"Next, it's up to us."

He wasn't worried that Martin would escape.

He had already locked onto Martin on a mental level. Even if Martin escaped his telepathic range, with Azul's first cosmic velocity, it wouldn't take long to circle the Earth.

And as soon as he sensed Martin, he could use 'Teleportation' to close the distance.

However.

Seeing Martin summon an army of the undead, Azul suspected that the guy wasn't planning to run.

Azul believed that the man should understand that an army of the undead posed no threat to him.

So, if he wasn't planning to run, it meant he had another trick up his sleeve.

Something that gave him confidence to fight Azul even with only 50% of his strength!

Next, Azul made preparations for the battle.

He spent 10 'Proficiency Essences' to upgrade 'Rapid Regeneration' by one level.

The reason he didn't enhance 'Biological Force Field' or 'Heat Vision' was that he didn't have enough 'Proficiency Essences'.

When he entered this universe, he had 33 'Proficiency Essences'.

But the genetic serums for Osborne and Gwen cost Azul 6 'Proficiency Essences'.

The remaining 27 'Proficiency Essences' were clearly insufficient for 'Biological Force Field' or 'Heat Vision'.

So he invested the Proficiency Essences into another talent that could enhance his survivability.

Rapid Regeneration!

After upgrading this talent by one level, it gained an additional effect.

With Rapid Regeneration +1, it could not only regenerate Azul's flesh and blood at an extremely fast rate but also repair his damaged 'Biological Force Field'!

On the other hand.

Azul's guess was correct.

Martin had no intention of running.

Back at the containment camp.

When Azul appeared and destroyed his 'Magneto Helmet', Martin knew that Azul must have abilities similar to Professor X.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have done that.

He had prepared for the worst.

The worst-case scenario was that Azul's telepathic abilities could cover the entire globe.

In that case, whether he ran or not didn't make much difference.

Now, the army of the undead he had summoned was, under his command, building an altar.

This altar could be used to collect energy.

At that time, all the deaths on this battlefield and the energy spilled from the battles would be collected by the altar.

Thus serving as a kind of 'offering'.

To power one of his black magics.

Martin himself didn't know black magic.

The black magic came from that black book of his.

It was a reward from his experience in "Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness".

A divine artifact he exchanged with dimensional crystals.

[The Incomplete Darkhold]!

Yes.

That infamous magical book from the Marvel universe.

But the one Martin exchanged for was an incomplete version of the Darkhold.

The magic in this divine artifact was divided into four chapters: Necromancy, Darkness, Chaos, and Corruption.

When Martin exchanged for this incomplete divine book, it only contained one necromancy spell.

The one he used earlier to summon the army of the undead.

But after obtaining this divine artifact, the store would occasionally refresh with time-limited magic scrolls.

Successfully exchanging for them would add corresponding magic pages to the Darkhold.

Unfolding the pages would allow him to cast the spells.

By chance, Martin once exchanged for a powerful spell.

A spell that could allow him to turn the tables even in extremely unfavorable situations.

But this spell required offerings.

That's why he was building the altar.

It was preparation for collecting the offerings.

"Come on."

"My 'brother'."

"Even if you guess I might have a trump card to turn the tables."

"But now, you have no choice."

"In another 30 hours."

"I will be free from the second punishment item, and then I will have 75% of my strength."

"At that time, it will be even harder for you to defeat me."

"So, you can only act within the remaining 30 hours, right?"

Martin touched his broad chin.

Watching a massive, human skull-like altar gradually take shape.

Hawaii Airport.

A private jet was ready.

Norman Osborne, dressed in a combat suit and fully equipped, looked at Azul.

Gwen had also changed into a set of clothes prepared by Osborne, suitable for action.

She still wore the Spider-Man mask and thought that if she survived this, she would redesign her suit.

She didn't like red.

She preferred white.

At this moment, Azul's voice rang out.

"Alright, you guys head to the battlefield on your own."

"I'll go ahead."

"We'll meet on the battlefield and act according to the plan."

After speaking, Azul's figure blurred and disappeared.

Looking at where Azul had disappeared, Old Osborne turned to Gwen.

"Let's go."

"I didn't catch your name?"

Gwen thought for a moment and said to the master of the Osborne Group, "You can call me 'Spider-Man'."

"Spider-Man, huh?"

Old Osborne nodded, "Then let's board the plane, Miss Spider-Man."

Gwen walked onto the plane, sat down, and fastened her seatbelt.

She looked at the web shooters on her hands.

"Dad."

"Peter."

"Please watch over me."

"Watch me avenge you!"

The plane took off.

Not far from the town occupied by Martin was a range of undulating mountains.

Above those mountains.

At an altitude of 10,000 meters.

Azul, with his arms crossed and his red cape fluttering, gazed through the clouds at the clearing below.

He saw the eerie, massive white human skull.

"Instead of following the Superman path."

"You chose the mage path."

"Brother, you're really rebellious."

Azul said, first creating a clone with 80% of his power.

Then he took out the 'Doom Seed' from his inventory, a thing resembling an egg, and handed it to his clone.

Then, using his 'Mental Invasion' ability, he controlled his clone.

Instantly.

This clone, except for the lack of a cape, was almost indistinguishable from the real Azul.

The clone, holding the 'Doom Seed', flew towards the mountain range below.

He didn't conceal his presence.

Thus, a dull sonic boom echoed across the sky.

Far away in the town.

Martin opened his eyes and looked towards the direction of the mountains.

His rough face seemed to glow in the evening sun.

He looked towards the mountains, where the sun was gradually setting behind them, forming a huge, yellow fireball behind the mountains.

Suddenly.

In the dazzling sunlight over the mountains, lightning flashed, followed by an inhuman roar that broke the tranquility of the dusk.

The next moment.

A black dot rose from the mountains, whistling across the vast distance, heading straight for Martin.

Before the shadow above could crash down like a meteor, Martin had already moved, flying up into the sky.

Then, a loud boom was heard, and the ground shook.

Martin looked down; the ground was billowing with smoke.

From the smoke emerged an ugly head.

Followed by strong limbs and a distorted body.

Doomsday!

Martin's expression immediately turned grim.

"Doomsday"

"This shouldn't be a summoned creature."

"According to the nature of those items in the store."

"Summoned multiverse characters are usually not the toughest."

"This should be created using an item, and it probably has a time limit."

"But even if it's only 24 hours, it's still an incredible thing."

As he spoke, the Doomsday on the ground had already pounced towards him.

Martin dodged.

The first stage of Doomsday wasn't hard to deal with.

The monster's attack patterns were straightforward, and it didn't have energy wave-like abilities yet.

But the problem was, the more you attacked Doomsday, the more it evolved.

Leaving it alone was not an option either.

Facing Doomsday, the best choice was to create a special prison to contain it.

Neither attacking it nor leaving it alone.

This way, when the time limit passed, it would disappear on its own.

Martin's Darkhold happened to have a spell with a similar effect.

He immediately took out the Darkhold and was about to cast the spell to control Doomsday.

Suddenly, two golden beams shot through the air. Martin had no choice but to look up and fire deep red lasers from his eyes.

The golden and red light streams met in mid-air.

The moment they collided, a massive explosion occurred.

At that moment, Doomsday happened to charge over.

Thus, the monster took the full brunt of the explosion's impact, and as it pounced towards Martin, its body rapidly expanded, evolving to the second stage.

"Damn it!"

Martin flew backward, causing Doomsday to miss and land on the ground.

As soon as the monster landed, swarms of zombies and flesh monsters pounced on it.

Doomsday roared, electricity crackling around its body, and then it unleashed a shockwave akin to a nuclear explosion.

In the blinding light, a terrifying energy surge spread out, sweeping across the surroundings.

Whether zombies or flesh monsters, all were annihilated upon contact with the energy surge.

After the shockwave spread out, it flattened everything on the battlefield.

Buildings, trees, rocks, and other objects were all crushed under the impact.

Only the altar remained, seemingly protected by some force.

Moreover, although Doomsday had wiped out Martin's army of the undead in one go.

However.

After those creatures died, pale, ghostly flames floated across the battlefield.

They howled as they flew towards the altar, entering the massive human skull. Soon, a pale flame ignited in the skull's black eye sockets.

In the sky.

A private jet suddenly shook violently.

A strong air current had just passed by it.

After the air current passed, the plane stabilized again.

Inside the plane, Gwen looked out the window.

In the distance, behind a mountain range, flickering electric lights were fading.

It seemed like a violent explosion had just occurred there.

"It's started."

Norman Osborne said, putting on a green, demon-like mask.

The eyes on the mask lit up.

Old Osborne said, "Mr. John has started his move. We need to hurry too."

As he spoke, the plane began to descend.

Finally, it landed on an open field.

The cabin door opened.

Old Osborne stepped out, then placed a wing-shaped skateboard on the ground.

He activated the skateboard, which rose into the air. It was equipped with miniature missiles and a mini machine gun.

Norman Osborne jumped onto the skateboard and turned back, "Want to come up?"

Gwen looked at the dense forest in the distance, shook her head, and then started running.

At first, her speed wasn't fast.

But as she accelerated, in the blink of an eye, she was as fast as lightning, turning into a faint red blur as she dashed into the forest.

"Alright."

"I'm past the age of being popular with the ladies."

Old Osborne chuckled self-deprecatingly, then controlled the skateboard, flying towards the forest as well.

At that moment, in the distant sky, a white cloud suddenly exploded.

As the cloud dispersed.

The view in Old Osborne's mask rapidly zoomed in, allowing him to see two figures entangled like the wind.

Every time they collided, the atmosphere would shake, creating shockwaves that scattered the surrounding clouds.

"Truly terrifying."

"Both that man and Mr. John."

After a sigh, Old Osborne focused, lowered his flight altitude, skimmed over the grass, stirring up a flurry of leaves, and disappeared into the forest.

At this time.

The sun had already set on the horizon, its light outlining a broad arc.

At this moment, the two figures in the sky collided once again.

The impact sent out ripples of shockwaves, dispersing the sea of clouds and revealing the dark blue night sky.

In the sky.

The clone controlled by Azul punched his 'counterpart' from another universe down to the ground.

But Martin quickly regained control.

At that moment, Doomsday leaped up and grabbed Martin from behind, locking him in a bear hug.

The coordination with the clone was seamless.

Then, Doomsday roared and leaned back.

Falling headfirst towards the ground with Martin.

The wind howled.

In an instant, Doomsday and Martin crashed into the ground.

The town's ground surged like a stormy sea, the impact point sinking while the surrounding ground bulged upward.

With a loud boom.

A crater appeared.

Around the crater, massive rocks were lifted by the tremendous force.

They lined up in a circle, resembling the statues of Easter Island.

Inside the crater, Martin kicked Doomsday away, spat out some sand, and cursed under his breath.

Suddenly.

He felt the atmosphere vibrating.

He looked up.

In the sky, his 'brother' from another universe had his muscles bulging, continuously expanding.

Each expansion created a shockwave.

At the same time, his body was enveloped in a blood-red glow.

In the dim red light, Azul's clone had unleashed 80% of his divine power!

At the same time.

The clone's entire body had expanded by more than a circle, and his height had increased slightly.

He exuded an aura of terrifying power.

As if one punch could shatter a planet.

Then.

The clone dived down.

The first cosmic velocity brought him to the top of Martin's head in an instant, and he swung his fist down.

Martin quickly dodged, and before the clone's fist even touched the ground.

The ground rapidly sank, as if an invisible weight was pressing down on it.

Then, a blast erupted!

Within the storm, rocks of various sizes rose from the ground, then shattered.

The fragments, like bullets or even cannonballs, shot out in all directions within the storm.

Martin narrowed his eyes, raised his arms to protect his head and face, and let the rocks hit various parts of his body.

Then, in his narrowed field of vision, he saw his 'counterpart' raise his arm and swing towards him.

Boom!

Azul's clone unleashed a violent shockwave, stirring up a fierce wind that tore open a trench in the ground.

Martin was hit head-on by the impact and was sent flying into the air.

At that moment, Doomsday pounced again, roaring as it grabbed Martin and slammed him into the ground.

Martin quickly pushed his hands down, crouched, and lay on the ground like a frog.

Even so, he still created a shallow crater in the ground.

Then he looked up.

And saw his 'counterpart' charging towards him, his right fist pulled back, gathering strength.

Then, the fist tore through the air, creating shockwaves that rushed towards Martin's face.

At this moment.

Martin's lips curled into a smile.

He sprang up, his hands moving apart, palms facing each other, as if holding a large ball.

Then, his hands rotated, generating a strange airflow.

When Azul's clone punched out, the strange airflow deflected the fist, causing the clone's punch aimed at Martin.

To instead hit his own left shoulder!
