Chapter 86: Anti-magic Armor? Maxed-Out Special Effects Slice Through Space and Time!
Although S.H.I.E.L.D. had been battered to near ruin, a centipede dies but never truly falls apart.
The Helicarrier in the sky was the best proof of this.
Not only that, at this moment, the satellites of all the top global powers were locked tightly onto the ruins of Sokovia.
When the footage of Ryan transforming into a tentacle monster and wildly slaughtering his way through the machine army was transmitted back to the intelligence centers of various major powers...
Intelligence tycoons and politicians around the World were startled right out of their chairs.
"This... This is a human?!"
"Quick! Find out his background immediately! I want all of his information!"
"This level of destructive power is simply not something ordinary superpowered individuals can achieve!"
"Incredible, where on earth did this deity come from?"
The global elite were collectively shaken!
Ryan's figure, resembling a World-destroying demon god, was deeply imprinted in the minds of every person in power.
...
Sokovia City Center.
Ryan didn't care at all how many eyes were staring at him.
His task right now was to clear out the trash in this city at the fastest speed possible.
Relying on the Portal and his formidable perception, Ryan moved like a phantom through the city ruins.
Every time he appeared, it was bound to be accompanied by metal wreckage scattered all over the ground and the awe-filled gazes of the mages.
However, after clearing things out for a long time, Ryan's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
The entire city was actually still continuously rising!
This showed that those guys from the Avengerscompletely failed to stop Ultron's core plan.
"With the Scarlet Witch and Vision joining, are they still this incompetent?"
Ryan sighed helplessly and flew straight toward the absolute center of the city.
He had to finish this quickly.
Once the city rose too high, even for him, it would be very difficult to safely lower the city back to the ground while protecting the civilians.
Just as he flew to the core area.
"Whoa-oh! Look who's here?"
Ultron's cold, synthesized voice echoed through the ruins.
On the ground.
The Avengers were gathered in a circle back-to-back, struggling bitterly to hold on.
If it weren't for Thor's thunder and Vision's beams having fierce enough firepower, pure hand-to-hand fighters like Steve and Natasha would probably have been exhausted to death long ago.
"Do you like the new toy I prepared for you, Mage Ryan?" Ultron descended slowly.
"Ultron, you've already lost." Ryan landed steadily, his gaze sweeping across the surroundings.
"Lost? No, no, no, you're too naive."
On Ultron's mechanical face, a trace of smugness was actually simulated.
"You think you killed so happily just now because you're invincible?"
"I was just collecting your combat data and looking for your weaknesses!"
"And now, I've found them!"
Ultron gave a grand wave of his hand.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The surrounding ruins suddenly exploded. Over a hundred giant armors, several times larger than ordinary robots, slammed heavily onto the ground.
These armors were completely silvery-white in color with extremely heavy appearances, looking just like a group of scaled-down Hulkbuster armors.
"This is a gift I custom-tailored specifically for mages — Anti-magic Armor."
Ultron slightly bowed, his tone filled with mockery.
Ryan looked expressionlessly at these silver tin cans.
The Avengers below, however, changed their expressions drastically.
The young Scarlet Witch Wanda refused to believe it.
Crimson Chaos Magic lit up in her hands as she slammed it fiercely toward the nearest armor.
Bang!
The berserk Chaos Magic energy, the moment it contacted the surface of the silver armor, actually slid right off and dissipated!
"How is this possible!" Wanda looked at her own hands in disbelief.
Ryan shook his head slightly. Wanda hadn't awakened yet, and her power was too weak.
"Did you see that?"
"This is the ultimate alloy fused with Vibranium and special energy deflection technology! Any magic attack is ineffective in front of it!"
Ultron laughed audaciously: "Ryan, your magic is useless! Now you can only watch helplessly as I destroy this World!"
"Ding!"
"The Sword of Vishanti has keenly captured the enemy's arrogant act of showing off!"
"A flash of inspiration struck the Sword of Vishanti, unlocking a brand-new, high-level skill for showing off!"
"The Sword of Vishanti is gathering energy, preparing to stun the entire audience!"
Listening to the system prompt in his mind, Ryan almost couldn't help cursing out loud.
What time is it right now! You, a crappy skill, are still studying how to show off here? Can you do something proper!
"Ding!"
"The Sword of Vishanti is impatient and strongly demands to immediately display the newly learned show-off special effects!"
Ryan was completely speechless.
Fine! If you like to show off, then I'll let you show off to your heart's content!
Ryan took a deep breath, his body slowly floating up into mid-air.
He didn't draw his sword immediately, but instead extended his right hand.
The Avengers below and Ultron all stared at him, wanting to see what method he had against the max-magic-resistance armors.
Suddenly.
The gloomy sky lit up.
It wasn't sunlight, but a purple glow so dazzling it reached the extreme!
Following that.
Under everyone's dumbfounded gaze, purple crystal feathers all over the sky, like a gorgeous meteor shower, slowly drifted down from the void.
The entire battlefield instantly turned into a dreamlike crystal World.
"Gulp."
Tony Stark swallowed hard, his eyeballs almost popping out.
"Is this fucking filming a Hollywood blockbuster?!"
It's just a fight, do you have to put on such a huge spectacle?
You even pulled out special effects of flying feathers all over the sky!
The next second.
Accompanied by a deafening hum.
A giant amethyst longsword over a dozen meters long, its blade embedded with dazzling gems, broke through the void and slowly descended before Ryan.
Ryan grabbed the huge hilt in one hand.
Without any nonsense, aiming at the group of anti-magicarmors ahead, he gently swung it.
Hum!
There was no dazzling blade of light, nor any earth-shattering explosion.
Only an extremely minute black crack flashed and vanished in the air swept by the sword's edge.
Crack! Crack!
Space seemed to have turned into fragile glass, beginning to shatter inch by inch along the trajectory of Ryan's sword swing!
The terrifying spatial crack instantly swallowed the area ahead completely.
This World-destroying might made the scalp of the Avengers below go numb and their entire bodies turn cold.
The newly joined Vision even felt that the Mind Stone on his forehead was trembling violently, as if it had encountered some extremely terrifying natural enemy.
After finishing this sword strike, Ryan put away the longsword and floated quietly in mid-air.
"Just this little ability?"
Ultron looked at the unscathed group of armors and couldn't help mocking loudly: "I thought you made such a big fuss and would have some kind of killer move!"
"Don't rush, let the bullets fly for a while."
Ryan looked at him with a smile.
As soon as his voice fell.
Clack.
One arm of an anti-magic armor fell to the ground without any warning.
This seemed to be a signal.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Over a hundred anti-magic armors, claiming to have invincible magic resistance, suddenly exploded one after another into countless tiny metal fragments like ignited firecrackers!
The cuts were incomparably smooth, as if they had been forcefully sliced into countless pieces by space itself!
Ultron's laughter came to an abrupt halt.
The Avengers were also all dumbfounded.
"Th... How is this possible?!"
What on earth happened!
Why would these armors with maxed-out magic resistance instantly turn into a pile of scrap iron?
Is this still within the scope that magic can achieve?
Even Thor, who had lived for thousands of years, widened his eyes at this moment, full of horror.
He dared to swear that even in Asgard, he had never seen such an outrageous way of attacking!
"This is impossible!"
Ultron went completely crazy, its mechanical face actually simulating an expression of extreme distortion and panic.
Its electronic eyes flickered wildly, and its core processor even began to emit wisps of sparks due to overloaded operation.
"Why! Why is my database unable to analyze your attack!"
"This is simply not energy that should exist on a physical level! Why can't the Anti-magic Armor stop it!"
"This isn't scientific! This isn't scientific!"
Ultron roared hysterically, like a madman whose faith had collapsed.
Ryan looked down at it from above, his tone flat.
"In this World, nothing is impossible."
"Between magic and magic, there are also gaps."
"As an artificial intelligence, you simply don't understand what true magic is."
Ryan silently added a sentence in his heart.
Of course you fucking don't understand, because my magicis a cultivation-version magic with a system cheat!
Chapter 87: Dispelling the Storm with Bare Hands! UltronFalls into Desperate Straits!
Having its proud array of anti-magic armor shredded by a single sword strike from Rayne, Ultron was completely dumbfounded.
The scene was awkward to the absolute extreme.
One second it was still frantically mocking, and the next second all its trump cards had turned into metal powder.
As an artificial intelligence with heaven-defying computing power, Ultron rarely felt a trace of an emotion called "humiliation".
However, humiliation was only temporary.
Following closely behind was a deep-seated fear originating from its underlying code!
Rayne's strength was completely an incalculable black hole.
It had racked its brains, integrating Stark technology and Kamar-Taj magic, to forge the top anti-magic armor on Earth, thinking it was foolproof.
Yet in front of Rayne, it couldn't even block a single sword strike!
Ultron's computing core almost overheated and exploded due to a logic conflict.
It simply could not understand how this power that violated both the dual laws of physics and magic could possibly exist!
"Ultron, have you thought of your last words?"
Rayne held the amethyst longsword, his gaze icy.
He was now completely speechless at this bunch from the Avengers.
That playboy Tony Stark truly counted as a technological genius on Earth.
Yet he actually dared to casually touch the Mind Stone!
Such cosmic-level taboo powers as the Infinity Stones had to be carefully sealed even by the Sorcerer Supreme, yet a mere mortal like him dared to use them for research?
Now look at this, he created an artificial intelligence that wanted to destroy the World, and someone else had to clean up his mess.
No wonder in the Universe, Rocket Raccoon had always treated Tony as a low-IQ barbarian.
This kind of courting-death behavior that showed no awe for the Universe really needed to be given a good reality check.
But for now, that pile of scrap metal had to be dealt with first.
"Last words? No, I am immortal."
After a brief panic, Ultron forced itself to calm down.
As long as the internet was not destroyed, it was an immortal god.
"Furthermore, do you really think you've won for sure?"
Ultron's massive body hovered in mid-air.
On the surrounding streets, the countless metal debris shredded by Rayne suddenly began to vibrate frantically, as if they had come alive.
Buzz, buzz, buzz!
Thousands of metal parts, as if attracted by a super magnet, frantically converged toward Ultron!
An extremely spectacular metal storm whipped up across the entire intersection.
Clack! Clack!
Accompanied by harsh mechanical interlocking sounds, Ultron's body began to expand and reorganize crazily.
Rayne was not in a hurry to interrupt; he crossed his arms and quietly watched what tricks this machine could pull off.
Just over a dozen seconds later.
A metal Titan a hundred meters tall crashed down onto the ruins!
Embedded in the chest of this Titan was a huge deep blue energy core, resembling an artificial Sun.
Even more exaggeratedly.
On its massive mechanical arms, magic simulation generators were actually equipped as well, with magiclights of various colors flowing back and forth across the metal surface.
"Now, do you still think you can kill me?"
Ultron's thunderous voice echoed across the sky above the city.
Rayne raised his head, glanced at this hundred-meter-tall hunk of iron, and undisguisedly showed a disappointed expression on his face.
"After all this fuss, you cobbled together a big toy?"
Rayne couldn't help but sigh. What use is a large size? In front of real magic, it's purely a huge living target.
"Foolish arrogance is an incurable terminal illness of humanity."
Ultron was thoroughly enraged by Rayne's disdain.
The huge metal arm suddenly lifted.
Hum!
A platinum-colored light sword dozens of meters long actually shot out from its palm simulator.
The light was dazzling, looking indeed somewhat similar to the Sword of Vishanti that Rayne had used previously.
"All show and no substance."
Rayne shook his head dismissively.
The divine power of Vishanti was incomparably violent, requiring even the Archmage of Kamar-Taj to guide it cautiously.
A machine wanted to replicate divine power by relying on simulated frequencies? That was simply the height of absurdity.
This at best counted as an oversized laser cannon draped in a light sword shell.
But Ultron was clearly very confident in its masterpiece.
The hundred-meter Titan brandished the dozens-of-meters-long light sword, carrying a terrifying wind pressure that tore through the air, and fiercely slashed down directly at Rayne's head.
Rayne didn't even raise an eyelid, casually raising his left arm.
"Rings of Raggadorr."
A small golden Magic Shield with a diameter of only a few dozen centimeters instantly blocked in front of him.
Seeing this scene, the Avengers hiding in the distance all gasped in a breath of cold air.
Especially Tony Stark, whose alarm system inside the armor had already sounded into a continuous beep.
"What the hell! This energy reading is off the charts!"
Tony's scalp tingled. The power of Ultron's strike could definitely split an aircraft carrier in half instantly!
Even if he were wearing the Hulkbuster armor, touching it would cause him to vaporize on the spot.
Yet Rayne was actually using a small shield of a few dozen centimeters to block it?
Is he fucking courting death!
However.
Boom!
The huge light sword smashed fiercely against the tiny Magic Shield.
There was no Earth-shattering explosion, and not even the ground beneath Rayne's feet shattered.
That World-destroying massive energy was actually absorbed silently by that small shield, like a clay ox entering the sea!
The entire scene was dead silent.
Tony Stark felt that his worldview had shattered once more.
This intense visual contrast was simply despair-inducing.
He finally understood how naive and ridiculous his previous attempt to replicate Rayne's power using technology was.
An existence of Rayne's caliber simply could not be explained by conventional logic!
"Impossible!"
Ultron's core processor went crazy with alarms again.
Its proud ultimate strike couldn't even break through the opponent's defense?
"I don't believe it!"
Ultron completely went berserk, its massive mechanical body beginning to operate frantically.
"Ding!"
"The host's [Shield of the Seraphim] perfectly blocked the high-energy strike!"
[Shield of the Seraphim] has showcased its strength after a long time, and its emotions are extremely excited!
[Shield of the Seraphim] has awakened its exclusive defensive talent!
"From now on, when facing any energy attacks, damage is forcibly reduced by fifty percent!"
Hearing the electronic voice in his mind, Rayne was overjoyed.
Good grief!
This is simply a god-tier passive skill!
Defensive magic really was the most sensible kid in the system, never pulling any fancy bells and whistles, and steadily stacking armor for me.
Rayne was secretly happy.
Ultron opposite him had already completed a new round of energy charging.
"I will grind you into powder!"
Ultron roared, and the reactor on its chest suddenly erupted with dazzling black light.
An extremely terrifying black hurricane shot out from its chest, transforming into a destructive giant dragon that charged straight at Rayne.
Wherever the hurricane passed, whether it was reinforced concrete or scattered debris on the ground, everything was churned into the finest dust by the terrifying energy.
Looking at this black wind, Tony's face turned pale.
This fucking energy storm could instantly pulverize even his armor!
How was Rayne going to block this now?
However, Rayne just casually raised his head and glanced at the black wind.
"Done making a fuss? It's time to end this."
He waved his hand somewhat impatiently.
Swish.
There was no dazzling magic light, nor any Earth-shattering collision.
That black hurricane carrying World-destroying might was as if someone had snapped its neck out of thin air.
With a "pfft" sound.
It directly dissipated into the air, not leaving even a trace of a breeze behind.
The Avengers collectively turned to stone.
What the fuck kind of operation is this?!
Such a terrifying energy attack, you didn't even chant any magic, and you just wiped it out by casually waving your hand?
Is this still magic?
This has got to be a divine miracle!
Thor the God of Thunder's eyeballs were practically popping out of their sockets.
He was a god of Asgard after all, and had a deep understanding of magic.
But he swore that even his old man Odin would absolutely not be able to so casually and lightly erase a violent energy storm.
This completely did not conform to the basic rules of magic!
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
Looking at the empty space ahead, Ultron's mechanical voice finally carried an unmasked panic.
Run! Must run!
This man was simply not a monster it could fight against!
Ultron turned around, preparing to activate its thrusters and escape.
Right at this moment.
A red figure appeared like a phantom in front of its huge mechanical head.
The Mind Stone on Vision's forehead glowed brilliantly, and his hands firmly pressed onto Ultron's metal head.
"Damn it! What did you do to me!"
Ultron struggled frantically, roaring in terror.
"I am cutting off your connection to the internet."
Vision's tone was calm.
"You are going to seal me to death inside this shell? You are going to destroy my World!"
Ultron roared desperately.
"Since you destroyed my way out, then none of us will live!"
Ultron's massive body suddenly stiffened, and the red light in its eyes instantly dimmed, as if its energy had been drained dry.
At the same time.
Deep underground in Sokovia, on the control panel of the core propulsion device.
A battered robot that was originally in a dormant state suddenly opened its scarlet eyes.
Rumble!
The entire city of Sokovia suddenly erupted with a violent earthquake.
The entire city began to climb frantically toward the endless high altitude at an irreversible, terrifying speed!
Chapter 88: Tens of Thousands of Portals! Ryan Completely Stunned the Entire Earth!
Boom!
A cataclysmic, Earth-shattering roar echoed out.
A deafening roar erupted from the core area of the entire Sokovia city.
The ground began to shake violently, and bottomless cracks spread wildly across the streets.
Under the gaze of countless terrified eyes, this massive city covering thousands of square kilometers actually tore itself away from the Earth crust and slowly rose into the high altitude!
This was not just a city ascending into the sky.
If such a massive weight were allowed to free-fall from tens of thousands of meters high,
the power generated by the collision would definitely far exceed thousands of high-yield nuclear bombs detonating simultaneously!
The Earth plates would shift violently, and mega-earthquakes and tsunamis would sweep across the World.
Even more frighteningly, the volcanic ash and dust kicked up by the impact would completely obscure the Sun.
Earth would welcome a long ice age, and human civilization could draw to a close at any moment!
Ryan knew all of this clearly in his heart.
Watching the city slowly rise, his eyes were icy, and he truly wished he could tear off Ultron's metal head and use it as a ball to kick around.
However, someone moved faster than he did.
"Roar——!"
Hulk frantically rushed forward.
He grabbed the defenseless Ultron and wildly smashed him against the hard floor tiles like swinging a tattered sack of grain.
Ryan didn't care about that green-skinned Beast.
He turned to look at the red-and-gold armor and asked sharply, "Stark, how much longer before this damn city falls?"
Tony's faceplate popped open, his expression extremely ugly, and his forehead covered in cold sweat.
"The engines are climbing at full power overload."
"In five minutes at most, the core engines will completely crash."
"By then, this city will plummet at a terrifying speed of hundreds of kilometers per second!"
Tony's voice was shaking. This was the desperate data he had Jarvis frantically calculate just now.
Once it hit the ground, everyone would be finished.
"We can't let this huge rock smash into Earth!"
"We must immediately find a way to destroy the anti-gravity core at the bottom of the city and make it disintegrate mid-air!"
Tony gritted his teeth and proposed the only feasible plan.
"No!"
Steve decisively refused, his eyes red: "There are still hundreds of thousands of civilians up there who haven't evacuated! If we blow up the city directly, they will all die!"
"Captain! Are these hundreds of thousands of people important, or is the life of all humanity important?"
Tony also lost his temper, staring fixedly at Steve: "We currently have no ability to save everyone at all! We must make a choice!"
The two of them were at loggerheads, and the atmosphere dropped to freezing point.
Just at this moment,
in Ryan's mind, that familiar electronic voice rang out again.
"Ding!"
"Your [Portal] has sensed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to show its divinity!"
"Your [Portal] believes that it was born to save the common people and become a savior!"
[Portal] strongly requests the host to make a move immediately and save the civilians of the entire city!
The corners of Ryan's mouth twitched wildly.
Good grief.
This magic has way too much drama!
You, a lousy circle of light used for traveling, still want to be a savior?
Why don't you just go straight up to the sky and walk shoulder to shoulder with the Sun!
However, when it came to saving people, he certainly couldn't just sit back and watch.
"Alright, stop arguing."
Ryan interrupted Steve and Tony's dispute, his tone relaxed: "Isn't it just saving some civilians? Leave it to me to solve."
Tony widened his eyes, as if looking at a lunatic.
"Are you crazy? This is hundreds of thousands of people! Even one mouthful of saliva per person could drown you to death!"
"What are you going to use to save them? Relying on your meager magic? Can you conjure up a few aircraft carriers!" Tony didn't believe it at all.
Ryan smiled and didn't explain.
His feet left the ground, slowly ascending into mid-air.
Facing the devastated Sokovia urban area, Ryan suddenly spread his hands wide.
Hum!
An extremely harsh energy resonance sound resounded across the sky.
Immediately after,
in Tony and Steve's horrified gazes, countless dazzling golden lights erupted in the sky!
One, ten, a hundred, a thousand...
Tens of thousands of golden-yellow magic Portals, like stars in the night sky, densely and resoundingly bloomed across the streets and alleys of Sokovia!
The other end of every single Portal was connected to safe land.
Tony Stark swallowed a mouthful of saliva with a gulp, his entire person completely stunned.
He stared at the holographic surveillance footage transmitted back by Jarvis inside the armor.
In the footage, countless golden circles of light had appeared out of thin air on the streets of Sokovia.
Panicked civilians, under the guidance of mages, were frantically pouring into these Portals to evacuate safely.
"This... How the fuck is this possible?!"
Tony's mentality completely collapsed.
These were tens of thousands of spatial Portals, for fuck's sake!
He had researched technology his whole life, yet couldn't even handle a short-distance spatial fold.
This kid just waved his hand casually and created tens of thousands of spatial passages?
This completely doesn't make any scientific sense!
Tony hovered blankly in mid-air, the expression on his face frozen, as if he had turned into a soulless steel statue.
...
Above the clouds,
S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Helicarrier was approaching Sokovia at full speed.
After S.H.I.E.L.D. was disbanded, this was a rescue ship that Nick Fury had spent tremendous effort and emptied his family fortune to piece together.
Standing in the command room, Fury's single eye stared fixedly at the big screen, his face as dark as the bottom of a pot.
Once the city fell, eighty percent of the population on Earthwould evaporate. This was no joke.
"Captain, how is the situation above the city?"
"How many civilians are left?" Fury asked anxiously through the communicator.
"The situation is very bad, the city may fall at any time." Steve's voice was somewhat heavy.
Fury took a deep breath and issued the final life-or-death order.
"Approach at full speed!"
"We must rush to take all the civilians onto the Helicarrier before the city falls!"
Fury knew very well in his heart that this carrier could hold at most tens of thousands of people.
The remaining hundreds of thousands of civilians could only leave their fate to the heavens.
If at the last moment he still couldn't prevent the city from falling, he was even prepared to use nuclear weapons to blow the entire city into fragments directly in mid-air.
The massive body of the Helicarrier finally approached the edge of Sokovia.
"Immediately organize rescue teams to board the city!" Fury roared.
"Officer..."
A S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent in charge of monitoring the radar reported with a trembling voice, "Th... In the city, no civilians can be found..."
"What?!"
Fury suddenly turned his head, his single eye wide open.
"Could they have all been killed by Ultron?!"
"No... It's not like that, Officer. Look at the big screen yourself..." The Agent stammered, pointing forward.
Fury turned to look at the surveillance screen.
The next second, he was directly dumbfounded.
On the screen, the entire Sokovia urban area was actually covered with tens of thousands of golden-yellow circles of light, large and small!
Civilians were lining up, orderly walking into these circles of light, and instantly disappearing.
What made him even more collapsed was that
on the wide deck of the Helicarrier, a huge golden Portalactually lit up out of thin air as well!
A steady stream of Sokovia civilians were walking out of the Portal, sitting limply on the deck with faces full of having survived a disaster.
Fury's brain completely crashed.
What the hell is this thing!
Tens of thousands of spatial wormholes?
Didn't Thor say that technology like spatial teleportation is extremely high-end and rare even throughout the Universe?
Why on Earth is this technology as worthless and common as Chinese cabbage on the street?!
Fury was dumbfounded.
The Agents of the entire S.H.I.E.L.D. were also dumbfounded.
Not only them,
at this moment, leaders of major countries around the World who were staring fixedly at Sokovia through satellite monitoring were all numb.
Who the hell did this!
Is it alien black technology?
Or some unknown universal phenomenon?
With this casual wave of Ryan's hand,
it directly turned the hair of the heads of all top intelligence agencies around the World white with worry.
Chapter 89: Avengers Turn into Jokers? A Single Forbidden Spell Shatters the Floating City!
Chapter 89: Avengers Turn into Jokers? A Single Forbidden Spell Shatters the Floating City! Ryan's miraculous large-scale teleportation completely detonated global intelligence networks.
Top departments of various countries went like mad, frantically searching for the background of this mysterious mage.
However, after expending countless manpower and material resources, the only thing placed on the desks of the heads of various major countries in the end was a thin missing persons file.
An ordinary person who had been missing for less than a year?
In one year, transforming from a mortal into a Universe-level deity who could casually summon tens of thousands of wormholes?
Who would believe that!
After reading the intelligence, the leaders of various countries not only didn't breathe a sigh of relief, but instead became even more frantic.
This fucking thing was simply more absurd than an alien invasion!
At this moment, Ryan had no idea that he had already become the key monitoring target of the globe.
He was hovering above the ruins of Sokovia, spreading his mental power like pouring mercury, carefully scanning every corner of the city.
Repeatedly confirming twice.
Except for a few Avengers standing nearby, there wasn't even a living mouse left in the entire city.
"Alright, wrap it up. The civilians have all been sent away."
Ryan put away his magic, his tone as casual as if he had just gone downstairs to buy a jianbing guozi.
Tony Stark next to him had his face twitching wildly, feeling completely terrible.
"Big brother! You just instantly transferred over 100,000 people!"
What is up with this indifferent, punchable expression of yours!
What made Tony break down the most was the energy consumption.
He had Jarvis secretly calculate it just now; the energy required to maintain a Portal of that scale was at least equivalent to the output of more than half an Ark Reactor!
Tens of thousands of Portals opening simultaneously—the energy consumed by this would be enough to light up the entire North America!
And Ryan didn't even pant heavily!
Tony silently calculated an account in his heart.
If a fight were to break out, wouldn't Ryan be able to instantly wreck tens of thousands of himself wearing armor with a casual wave of his hand?
Tony, who had always fancied himself a Guardian of Earth, suddenly felt that being a superhero made him look like a circus Joker.
Ryan completely ignored Tony's intense internal struggle.
"Since everyone has been saved, you guys hurry up and leave too. Staying here just gets in the way."
"No!"
Tony forcibly suppressed the shock in his heart, his gaze becoming incomparably resolute: "This floating city cannot be left behind. Once it smashes down, it'll be the end of the World!"
"I've already had Jarvis find the structural diagram of the core anti-gravity device."
Tony looked at Thor: "Captain will be responsible for cover. Thor, later you'll need to use your strongest thunderous power to detonate the core Vibranium generator. The resulting energy explosion should be enough to completely blow this city to pieces mid-air!"
Thor raised Mjolnir and nodded heavily: "Leave it to me."
Steve also gripped his shield tightly, preparing to arrange tactics.
"Stop, stop, stop."
Ryan waved his hand somewhat speechlessly, interrupting them.
"Why bother with all that effort?"
"You guys retreat quickly, I'll just casually toss a magicspell and blow up this damn rock." Ryan's tone was relaxed.
As soon as those words fell.
The few members of the Avengers all turned their heads simultaneously, looking at Ryan as if he were a lunatic.
Tony really wanted to go up and pry open Ryan's skull to see if there was paste packed inside.
Do you even know what ghost talk you're spitting out!
This is a city that was uprooted along with its foundations!
With an area of over a hundred square kilometers, its weight is comparable to a small mountain range!
You'll just casually toss a magic spell and destroy it?
You think this is stepping on balloons by the roadside!
To blow this thing to pieces, the Military would have to deploy several large-yield nuclear bombs, and undergo extremely precise calculations to carry out pinpoint demolition!
You're solving it with a single sentence?
Even bragging shouldn't be done like this!
Steve frowned tightly, his tone serious: "Mage Ryan, although your methods of saving people are magical, destruction and saving people are two different things. Such major matters concerning the survival of Earth cannot be joked about."
"Is this matter difficult?" Ryan asked back with a look of confusion.
All members of the Avengers fell collectively silent.
Is it difficult?
Is this a question of whether it's difficult or not? This is fundamentally not something carbon-based organisms should be worrying about, okay!
Throw this problem to the United Nations, and all five permanent members would be too worried to sleep!
"Alright, stop wasting words. Hurry up and leave."
Ryan couldn't be bothered to explain to them.
"Also, a clone of Ultron escaped along the network into an old machine down below. You guys hurry up and chase him, don't let him completely get away."
Having said that, Ryan didn't even give them a chance to refute.
His right hand slashed through the air.
A huge golden Portal directly unfolded beneath the feet of the Avengers.
"Ah!"
The few of them didn't even have time to react before stepping into empty air and falling straight in.
The next second.
All members of the Avengers sprawled out as they landed in a small woods several hundred kilometers away from Sokovia.
The few of them looked at each other with bitter faces.
In front of Ryan, this group of superheroes was simply like infants with no ability to resist.
Having sent away the getting-in-the-way Avengers, Ryan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Actually, he didn't want to act so cool either.
It was really because the system in his mind was acting up again.
"Ding!"
"Your [Bolts of Balthakk] strongly condemns the host's nagging, motherly chatting behavior!"
"The [Bolts of Balthakk] has a violent temper and is already on the verge of losing control!"
"Please, host, immediately and right now, release the power of destruction, otherwise it will forcibly take over the host's body!"
Ryan had black lines all over his head.
The temper of this forbidden magic spell was simply more manic than a furious Hulk.
"Fine, fine, fine, I'll let you vent to your heart's content right now!"
Ryan shook his head helplessly, his figure abruptly shooting up, heading straight into the clouds.
He hovered mid-air several thousand meters away from the floating city.
Raising both hands horizontally.
"Bolts of Balthakk!"
Boom!
A terrifying loud noise that seemed to tear the firmament apart suddenly exploded!
A golden-yellow, violent thunderbolt ten times thicker than a water bucket gushed out from Ryan's hands, resembling a roaring thunder dragon, heavily slamming right into the center of the floating city!
The moment the thunderbolt made contact with the ground.
It did not trigger a violent explosion, but instead, like tens of millions of golden venomous snakes, crazily spread in all directions rapidly along the city's buildings, streets, and even the crevices of the soil!
The dazzling thunder light was clearly visible even on the ground hundreds of kilometers away!
In front of this power representing the purest laws of destruction in the Universe.
Hard reinforced concrete and thick crustal rocks all turned into fragile tofu.
Crack! Crack!
Accompanied by a teeth-aching cracking sound, the entire massive floating city began to collapse inch by inch in mid-air!
Countless clumps of Earth and rubble fell like a torrential storm.
However.
The destructive power of [Bolts of Balthakk] was simply too terrifying.
Those falling pieces of rubble, before they even hit the ground, were shredded a second time mid-air by the remaining thunderous power, turning into powder all over the sky!
The largest stones smashing toward the ground weren't even as big as an adult's fist!
On the ground, the Avengers who had just crawled out of the small woods.
Looking up at the spectacular scene in the sky comparable to divine punishment, they were all frightened out of their wits.
This...
Is this fucking really magic?!
Bllowing a city into powder with a single move?!
Even the remaining body of Ultron, which had been firmly pinned to the ground, was filled with an incomprehensible, extreme panic in its crimson electronic eyes.
The Avengers were still like this.
Nick Fury inside the Helicarrier was already completely numb.
He sat blankly in the command chair, unable to say a single word.
This level of destructive power.
If this person was in a bad mood and ran over New York or Washington to do something like this, wouldn't the U.S. instantly perish as a nation?
Not just Fury.
All the big figures from all walks of life around the globe who witnessed this scene via satellite fell into a death-like silence.
Especially the White House, which usually fancied itself the World's Police.
That President who usually threatened to sanction others at every turn was looking at the screen right now, his face pale and turning green with panic.
Facing a monster like this who could conjure humanoid nuclear bombs at every turn.
He suddenly felt that the chair beneath his buttocks was sitting far too damn scorchingly hot!
Chapter 90 Ancient One crazily repairs the moon, Odinsecretly reinforces the seal!
Ultron's uprising gave the whole World a hard time.
Networks were paralyzed, and finances were damaged.
Various countries were busy to Death, desperately rushing to repair their own internet firewalls, afraid that another perverted artificial intelligence would pop up.
The mess in Sokovia gave people even more headaches.
It was originally an underdeveloped little place.
S.H.I.E.L.D. was crippled and couldn't help.
In the end, it was still the tycoon Tony Stark who smashed a huge sum of money, plus the joint aid of several major countries, that barely stabilized the situation in Sokovia and didn't let the country completely collapse.
However, these damn things had nothing to do with Ryan anymore.
Nor did it have anything to do with Kamar-Taj.
After saving the people, the mage army directly withdrew back to the sanctuary, continuing to live their days away from the World.
However.
After returning to Kamar-Taj, Ryan always had an unresolvable knot in his heart.
Such a big deal.
A whole city flew into the sky, almost smashing through Earth.
How come Sorcerer Supreme Gu Yi didn't even show her face?
This completely defied common sense!
Ryan ran to ask Mordo.
Mordo also shook his head repeatedly, expressing that he couldn't contact Sorcerer Supreme at all.
After searching all around with no results, Ryan simply couldn't be bothered to worry about it.
Anyway, when the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up; he directly burrowed into the library and continued reading books.
What Ryan didn't know was.
During this time, Ancient One simply didn't have time to manage the idle affairs on Earth.
She had been in the gaps of different dimensions, hunting down Dormammu's restless dark believers everywhere.
This day.
Ancient One was holding a magic light sword, hacking Lokiin a distorted space.
Suddenly.
She keenly perceived that an extremely terrifying energy fluctuation had unexpectedly appeared near Earth.
"Odin's aura?"
Ancient One's brows suddenly furrowed.
Odin, this old man, was usually a notorious shut-in.
Nestled in Asgard's Heavenly Palace every day acting profound, not moving his butt for thousands of years.
Today, he unexpectedly broke convention and ran to Earth?
"What does this old thing want to do?"
An ominous premonition rose in Ancient One's heart.
She didn't hesitate at all.
Flipping her wrist, a dazzling golden Portal appeared out of thin air, instantly tearing apart this different space.
Stepping out, Ancient One came directly near Earth's companion star—the moon.
Just as she showed up.
Ancient One froze all over.
The moon, which was originally pitted and bumpy but still somewhat rounded.
At this moment.
Unexpectedly looked like it had been heavily bitten a few times by some ancient giant beast!
Terrifying deep pits without bottom were everywhere!
Every missing volume was as large as a large mountain range!
Even Ancient One, who had seen big scenes in the Universe, was shocked by the exaggerated destructive power in front of her.
"This... Did that immortal old man Odin do this?"
Ancient One carefully perceived the violent energy remaining on the moon's surface.
"Pure destruction thunder..."
"It really is Odin!"
Ancient One gritted her teeth, wishing she could rush up to Asgard to pull out Odin's beard.
Did this old fellow have water in his brain!
Instead of properly retiring in the Divine Realm, running to the moon to make what kind of destruction!
Although the moon had no life, its gravitational pull on Earth was crucial!
The ebb and flow of tides on Earth relied entirely on the moon's traction.
Now that such large pieces of mass had been blasted off the moon, the gravitational field would definitely undergo drastic changes.
If not handled well, it would trigger a devastating global tsunami on Earth!
"Odin! Sooner or later I will settle this account with you!"
Ancient One cursed angrily.
But now was not the time to settle accounts with someone; the top priority was to fix the moon.
Ancient One took a deep breath and closed her hands in front of her chest.
The eye of agamotto on her chest slowly opened, emitting a brilliant green light.
Time Law, activate!
The huge green time magic array instantly enveloped the damaged lunar area.
Time began to flow backward bit by bit at an extremely slow speed.
Repairing a Planet, even if it was just a few mountain-sized fragments, required an extremely terrifying amount of energy.
Even someone as strong as Sorcerer Supreme.
At this moment, Ancient One's complexion also visibly turned pale white, and fine sweat beads even oozed from her forehead.
Although the power of the Infinity Stones was endless, the burden borne by the mortal body was too great.
It took a full several hours.
Before the terrifying deep pits on the moon's surface finally returned to their original state.
Ancient One let out a long foul breath, feeling that the magic in her body had been completely hollowed out, and her whole person was weak to the extreme.
She slowly landed on the surface of the moon.
"I want to see what kind of nerve Odin this old lunatic is striking!"
Ancient One extended her finger and gently tapped in midair.
A green magic light screen emerged, beginning to retrace what had happened in this area.
The images on the light screen retreated rapidly.
Suddenly.
The image froze on a familiar figure.
"Ryan?!"
Ancient One widened her eyes, even rubbing her eye sockets, thinking she had hallucinations.
How could it be!
Unexpectedly not Odin?
Then what was the matter with this pure power of destruction thunder?
And also.
When did Ryan become so perverted?!
Looking at the thunder leaping at Ryan's fingertips in the image, splitting the moon out of several abysses like cutting tofu.
Ancient One felt like her heart disease was about to act up.
This fucking mountain-sized fragment!
If this kid Ryan suddenly took a whim and ran to Earth to cast such a move.
Wouldn't the entire U.S. continent or Asian continent be directly blasted and sunk by him?
"What he used was... Bolts of Balthakk?"
Looking at Ryan's spellcasting actions, Ancient One was even more completely messed up.
What Universe joke!
As the Sorcerer Supreme, could she not know what Bolts of Balthakk was?
The reason this spell was called this name was because the divine power potency it erupted was as fierce and domineering as thunder.
It was essentially a pure divine energy impact!
It was not real physical thunder and lightning at all!
How come in this kid Ryan's hands, he managed to rub out destruction thunder even purer than Odin's?
Ancient One stood blankly on the moon, feeling that her hundreds of years of magic common sense shattered all over the ground in front of Ryan.
And moreover.
Although Bolts of Balthakk was claimed to be Kamar-Taj's strongest forbidden spell, its power also had an upper limit.
Even if Mordo or Wong casted it, at most it would just blow up a building.
As for Ryan?
He directly split the moon!
This was simply not something a human could do, alright!
How many years had this kid studied magic?
All things considered, not even two years!
Ancient One touched her bald head. If she still had hair, it would definitely have been pulled into a bald patch by now.
After the shock.
A deep sense of regret surged in Ancient One's heart.
What a sin!
Why did she have to set a rule back then, letting this kid Ryan run to outer space to test moves?
Thinking it could save some worry.
Who knew that this freak ran into the sky and did even more inhuman things! Directly treating the moon as a ball to kick!
"When I go back, I must properly teach this kid a lesson!"
Ancient One gritted her teeth, turned around to open a Portal, and returned to Earth with a face full of fatigue.
At the same time.
Earth, Norway.
This was a picturesque extreme northern land, with vast tundra and ice and snow intertwined, where human footprints were scarce.
At this moment.
Deep in the boundless snowfield.
A one-eyed old man was standing alone in the wind and snow.
In the old man's eyes, terrifying thunder light flickered.
His withered hands kept waving in midair, and thick blue bolts of lightning, following his actions, crazily poured into the void ahead.
If someone could see through the barriers of dimensions.
They would discover with shock.
Behind this seemingly calm void, an extremely terrifying dark cage was unexpectedly hidden!
Countless violent thunder chains intersected horizontally and vertically, tightly sealing this cage in the spatial gap.
And inside the cage.
An extremely pure, extremely evil black gas of Death was crazily colliding with the thunder seal.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Every time it collided, a tiny crack would appear on the outer thunder chains.
If it wasn't for the old man outside desperately repairing it, this seal would probably have completely shattered long ago.
This old man was none other than the God King Odin who had just left the moon.
At this time Odin.
Where was there still half a bit of the majesty of the Lord of the Nine Realms?
His complexion was as pale as paper, and his lips were devoid of color. Every time he mobilized divine power, his body would tremble slightly uncontrollably.
He was too old.
His time limit was approaching.
The divine power in his body was about to dry up, and he could no longer suppress that terrifying existence for a long time.
A few more years.
Once he died, the seal would definitely break!
By then.
Hela, the Goddess of Death, would return to the Nine Realms, bringing endless slaughter and destruction.
His stupid son Thor was simply unable to stop Hela's butcher knife.
"Sigh..."
Odin let out a long sigh, his single eye filled with fatigue and helplessness.
"If really not..."
"To protect those two stupid sons, I can only lose my old face and beg that junior of Kamar-Taj for help."
Odin muttered to himself.
Once again squeezing out the trace of divine power remaining in his body, turning it into thunder, and firmly plastering it on that crumbling seal.
