DC Heroes in Marvel

Chapter 290: C250



Unimaginably terrifying currents shot through the cable ducts connecting the Tesseract.

This terrifying electricity was directly projected outward, into the void.

A terrible black crack appeared.

Boom!

The wind swept across.

A strange black substance was revealed in the crack.

"This is dark matter?"

Tony's eyes burned. This special substance had an unimaginable catalytic effect on the human body.

According to his and many other scientists' deductions, it was likely to induce abnormal changes in the human body, potentially granting superpowers.

"Yes, this should be dark matter!"

Eric flushed with excitement, clenched his fists, as if standing in the highest hall of science.

Coulson and Nick Fury also felt refreshed.

For a long time, S.H.I.E.L.D. had suffered tremendous setbacks, especially with the rise of Hydra, making S.H.I.E.L.D. an instant target of ridicule by countless people and organizations.

Coulson and Nick Fury undoubtedly wanted to turn this situation around.

The success of the Pegasus Project gave them the possibility of reversing things. From then on, S.H.I.E.L.D. would become more powerful.

Many thoughts flashed through their minds. At this moment, the other members of the Avengers were also shocked.

Only Victor Doom laughed in an abnormal manner.

"It's time!"

"Everyone, I can only say I'm sorry, but today you will witness what a real miracle is!"

There was madness hidden in his words as he stepped forward toward the Tesseract .

"What?"

"Victor, what are you going to do?"

"Don't go over! The energy released by the Tesseract will kill you!"

The others opened their eyes wide, their faces filled with horror.

Among them, Harry was more shocked than the others, but at the same time, he was more accepting of the facts.

"Anton is right again!"

He murmured, an unbelieving expression on his face.

"What does he want to do?"

Another question emerged in Harry's mind. He couldn't understand why Doom would move toward the Tesseract at such a moment.

At this time, the Cube was releasing extremely terrifying energy. Under the operation of Dr. Eric, most of the energy was converted into electric current, while the rest scattered around, changing the surrounding magnetic field and forming an indescribable zone of terror.

In other words, anyone who got too close to the Tesseract was extremely likely to be obliterated by the terrifying energy emitted from the magnetic field, leaving no trace behind.

Therefore, no one dared to stop Doom as he approached the Tesseract .

"Cut off the current supply!"

Nick Fury realized something was wrong. Even though the experiment was at a critical moment, he knew cutting off the current would definitely cause a failure, but he did not hesitate to make the decision.

"This..."

Coulson hesitated. Seeing Nick Fury's determination, he nodded and ordered, "Cut off the current."

Click!

However, the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents nearby did not act. Instead, they stood frozen and raised their guns.

"What?"

The guns were aimed at Coulson and the others.

Whoosh!

"Get out of the way!"

Tony activated the Ark Reactor on his chest, and his body was instantly covered with a layer of nano-shaped steel armor. 

He then used his palm cannon at the lowest power setting to push Coulson away.

Boom!!

Coulson's original position was struck by a bullet, leaving a small hole.

"How so?"

Coulson swallowed, feeling uneasy. He turned to look at the agent who had shot at him and realized that this was actually one of his trusted subordinates.

"How could he be a spy?"

"No, not a spy!"

The Black Widow shook her head. "Looking at his eyes, there's no focus at all... He's being controlled! Just like the other day, when the agents attacked the base out of control!"

"It's that mysterious force..."

Hawkeye seemed stunned. He turned his head and looked at Victor Doom, who had gotten close to the Tesseract in just a few seconds. "Is it related to him?"

"It seems that even if it has nothing to do with him, you won't believe it."

With a thought, Harry's black armor covered his body. 

In the lounge not far from the base, a flying skateboard voluntarily swept across the major corridors of the base and flew to Harry's feet in just a few blinks.

In just a few moments, he was fully armed.

"This is obviously not an accident. Someone is deliberately promoting all of this, waiting for the success of the Pegasus project to plunder the fruits."

Harry said solemnly, "Victor Doom is probably behind the scenes. And, it's not just Victor Doom... Guys, this is the time to fight."

"Harry is right."

Captain America- Steve Rogers, finally spoke. He no longer remained silent. His face was cold, his eyes sharp as he locked onto Victor Doom, and squeezed the shield in his hand.

Boom!

He threw the shield that countless people regarded as the spiritual symbol of the American team.

The shield was like a boomerang, slamming into the magnetic field of the Tesseract . But when it was about to hit Doom, the shield was abruptly caught by Doom's hands.

Boom!

"Captain, don't worry."

Doom's palm was completely metalized, and the shield did not harm him at all.

"...More exciting things, you'll see them soon!"

As his voice fell, an electric current erupted in his hand, and he threw the shield back at Rogers fiercely.

Boom!!

Rogers caught the shield, his body slammed back with a force like a dragon pouncing. His feet dug into the ground, creating a deep gully.

Even so, he moved several meters before stopping his retreating figure.

"What?"

When the others saw this, they were absolutely sure—Victor Doom, who was behind the scenes... maybe the word 'more than one' had to be added.

Because the surrounding agents had continued to pull the trigger on everyone present.

Boom boom boom boom!

The muzzles erupted, and the peanut-sized bullets pierced the air, containing explosive power, and fell on everyone in the audience.

The proper natural superpower, Sandman, turned into a sandstorm and rolled up. The bullets passed through the sandstorm and hit the ground, exploding sparks, without affecting him in the slightest.

Hawkeye and Black Widow hardly reacted to the bullets, their expressions neutral.

The two of them, having been transformed by the Extremis Virus, could easily withstand bullet attacks.

The armors of Harry and Tony completely blocked any hot weapons, and the bullets didn't even leave a trace on their armor.

As for Captain America and Dr. Octopus, they reacted quickly, one holding a shield and the other forming a protective wall with a mechanical arm behind them.

The most embarrassed were undoubtedly Coulson and Nick Fury.

Neither of them had special abilities. Facing a group of agents shooting at them, they had only one option: to avoid the bullets.

They huddled behind a table in embarrassment, cautiously peeking their heads out.

"Stop him!"

Nick Fury's face suddenly showed panic when he saw that Doom was facing the magic side of the Tesseract .

After the recent battle with Captain Marvel, he had gained an extraordinary understanding of the Tesseract .

If the Tesseract is really controlled by Doom, it will become a huge threat.

This is a disaster.

"Don't care!"

Tony energized the power and launched the palm cannon.

Boom!

The energy ray rushed out and hit Doom's back directly.

"Humph!"

Doom turned his head and raised his hand to release a shield formed by an electric current to block Tony's energy rays.

"What?"

Tony was taken aback.

He had learned about the capabilities of all members of the Avengers. The superpower that Doom exhibited at this time was definitely a qualitative leap from what he had shown before.

"The control of electric current has reached such a level of proficiency..."

Tony frowned, beginning to wonder what Victor Doom had experienced in these two months.

Huh!

The other Avengers looked at each other.

The magnetic field created by the Tesseract still blocked their steps, and they did not dare to approach Doom easily.

They could only subdue the agents who were firing guns around them.

Bang, bang, bang!

The agents posed no threat to them.

In just a few blinks, Sandman surrounded the entire area, neutralizing most of the agents, and the rest were dealt with by other members of the team.

"Dr. Selvig, you guys go!"

For Captain America, Rogers looked at the researchers who were well-protected by them, some of whom were frightened. He said in a deep voice, "It's dangerous here. Get out of here."

Eric and the others understood immediately. They didn't dare to stay and disappeared into the center of the base as quickly as possible.

At this time, only Doom remained uncontained.

Click!

Rogers cut off the power supply for the first time.

However, it was too late.

Before that, Doom had reached out for the dark matter created by the Tesseract , and the dark matter was sucked into his body.

"Call—"

Doom showed a look of enjoyment.

Immediately, he pulled out the Tesseract , his body instantly turned into metal, and the terrifying current reflected off his whole body in blue.

"That's too late!"

Harry sighed. Seeing the current situation, it might be difficult to stop Doom's actions. Moreover, he always felt that someone was watching secretly.

That person might be an accomplice of Doom.

With the ability to manipulate people's hearts, all SHIELD agents had become accomplices of the enemy.

"Anton is right."

The face under Harry's mask darkened slightly. "Doom really has a problem."

He regretted not paying enough attention to Anton's warning.

"Everyone, right now, a miracle is born!"

Doom opened his arms in front of everyone, laughed, and his attitude was unprecedentedly arrogant.

"The magnetic field generated by the Tesseract has disappeared..."

Tony spoke calmly.

The meaning of this sentence was very clear: now they could join forces and launch an offensive against Doom!

Whoosh, whoosh!

As soon as the words left his mouth, Hawkeye drew an arrow, aimed at Doom, and released the bowstring.

Captain America Rogers threw the shield again. Dr. Octopus urged the robotic arm behind him.

Harry's armor transformed into sharp tentacles, like spears, piercing the air.

Tony mobilized the most powerful palm cannon.

Sandman became a swirling storm of wind and sand.

Black Widow emitted red light all over, stimulating the energy of her body to the extreme.

All the Avengers gave their best effort to obliterate Victor Doom, the traitor of the team.

"Too naive!"

When Doom saw this, he didn't panic. His whole body turned into metal, and his palms began to glow with metallic luster.

Zzi, zzi, zzi!

One hand held the Tesseract with an electric current, while the other formed a fist, with blue electric light pulsating in the center of his squeezed palm.

"You are too naive!"

A crazy smile appeared on Doom's face: "I am God now!"

The voice fell.

His fist opened, and the thunder and lightning in his palm suddenly exploded with terrifying energy, like an inverted bowl, suddenly spreading around.

Boom!!

In an instant, the huge impact and the lethality of the thunder and lightning rapidly expanded.

All the attacks from the Avengers members were instantly offset by the shockwave formed by this thunder and lightning, and all the Avengers members were blown away by the aftermath of this lightning attack.

Even the elemental Sandman was no exception.

Boom! Boom!

The entire base trembled, and the structure of the walls was damaged by the force, causing huge cracks.

With the ground where Doom stood as the center, a huge pit emerged, almost spreading to the center of the base.

Boom boom boom!

The Avengers members were tossed around by the thunder and lightning attack, their bodies like rag dolls thrown away, without the slightest resistance.

Fortunately, their personal abilities were quite good, and most of them had only suffered minor injuries.

Only Dr. Octopus had more serious injuries, as well as…

The sand incarnate from Sandman was completely broken up, and at this time, it hadn't even reassembled into a human form.

However, the most injured were not the Avengers members, but Coulson and Nick Fury.

Even though they found a hiding place at the critical moment, their whole bodies seemed to have been burned by flames. 

Large areas of their bodies were affected by the aftermath of the lightning attack, and the bones in their bodies were also broken by the powerful shockwave.

"Ahem!"

Captain America Rogers opened the iron table that was pressing on him, looked at Victor Doom in the center of the pit, clenched his fists, and raised his shield: "Doom, what on earth do you want to do?"

"Didn't you already see it?"

Doom narrowed his smile, but the pride in his eyes could not be contained.

"What I want to do, I have already done."

He put the hand holding the Tesseract on his chest and showed it to everyone present.

"Tesseract !"

"This is the key to my promotion to God."

Doom said lightly, "No one can stop me now!"

"You're thinking nonsense!"

Harry appeared, embarrassed, and looked at Doom coldly. "Even if you defeat us, the Justice League is waiting for you."

"Justice League?"

Doom sneered disdainfully. "I have my own way."

The voice fell.

All the Avengers members regrouped.

The scattered elemental bodies of Sandman also gathered again.

However, just as all the members of the Avengers League were standing by, Doom's figure in front of them distorted like a shadow, producing ripples on the lake.

"Not good!"

Tony noticed something was wrong. "Don't let him escape!"

Boom!

All the attacks gathered at one point and easily penetrated Doom's body, but did not cause any harm.

This turned out to be just an illusion.

"Your time is running out!"

Doom's voice sounded again, endless, as if coming from all directions, making it impossible to find its source.

"Everyone, wait for me to rule the world."

After this sentence, Doom vanished without a trace.

All the Avengers members looked at each other, and they saw the resentment and discouragement hidden in the others' eyes.

They didn't pursue blindly.

On the one hand, they knew that Doom had been preparing for a long time, and most of them couldn't catch up.

On the other hand, Doom's ability just demonstrated completely shattered their understanding. Even if they did catch up and kill all of them, it may not be effective in regaining the Tesseract .

After all, they all realized that in the shadows, Doom also had a helper who could manipulate people's hearts and treat ordinary people like puppets.

At the same time, in New York.

After a busy week, Anton finished the post-production work on The Hell Detective, and it was released nationwide.

At this moment, he stood at the entrance of the cinema, watching the first group of audiences who walked into the theater come out and fill in the movie's evaluation, his face calm.

The only system panel he could see in front of him, the fan value of Constantine, had already revealed the answer in advance.
