Last ti, that Hera was truly cheating! Whether alive or dead, whether living or dying, she was like a little powerhouse that just couldn't be killed!
"This ti, I want to see if that long-eyed man dares run to our school and play wild!"
A faint, throbbing Phoenix Force slowly began to rise and envelop Jane!
Jean, standing to the side, gripped the unparalleled blade tightly in her hand.
"Professor! Let help too!"
Professor X glanced at her, sensing the powerful cosmic energy residing within Jean's body, and nodded lightly. "Alright."
He knew well that Jean was no longer that powerless astronor from before. With the Cosmic Blade, her strength was by no ans weak. Even if he and Erik wanted to defeat her quickly, it wouldn't be easy. For ordinary enemies, she was more than enough.
"Erik," Professor X turned to his old friend. "I'll leave the cleanup to you after the battle."
Magneto nodded coldly, saying nothing. An invisible and terrifying magnetic field, controlling all tals, silently spread around him, enveloping the entire Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters!
Proxima Midnight and Black Dwarf still didn't know how terrifying it would be to face these Guardians of Earth!
…
Ti was fleeting.
Suddenly, a black strear filled with tyranny and slaughter tore across the sky like a deathly cot, appearing above Xavier's School!
The trident in her hand glowed with a cold, dark blue light. Her eyes, filled with hatred and bloodlust, swept across the vast, beautifully constructed campus, wearing a cruel and ugly smile.
"Hear , insects hiding inside!"
Her voice, following her blessing, thundered through the campus:
"Co out... and die!"
As she spoke, monstrous figures—vicious and huge—rampaged from the distant mountains and forests!
Black Dwarf's enormous body, like an out-of-control tank, smashed directly into the school wall, creating a huge breach! Gravel flew, smoke and dust rose!
"Roar!"
Black Dwarf let out an excited bellow, slamming his massive teor hamr into the ground with a thunderous boom—the ground shook violently!
This sudden, brazen provocation instantly shattered the campus's peace!
"Enemies?"
In a dorm room, Wolverine Logan, who was carving wood with his claws, was startled by the tremor, his hands trembling. His sharp Adamantium claws sliced the half-finished carving in two. Anger flashed across his face!
"Bang!"
He kicked open the door, cigar in his mouth, cursing as he stord out.
"Who the hell is causing trouble here?"
At the sa ti, in the school's training room, Hulk, busy with strength training, heard the commotion outside. He paused, excitent igniting in his green eyes at the sound of provocation.
"A fight..."
He grinned, smashed his two gigantic fists together, making a dull noise.
Diana also left her ho, looking up in the direction of the voice. A solemn light flashed in her clear, determined eyes.
"This aura... It's full of evil and destruction. Are these enemies from the abyss of the universe?"
Without hesitation, a shield of divine power and the sword of the God of Fire appeared in her hands. She was ready for battle.
For a mont, the arrival of these two uninvited guests threw the entire Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters into chaos! Countless mutant students and teachers rushed out from every corner, staring at the monstrous figure that had smashed through the wall and the floating, terrifyingly powerful woman above!
At this very mont, several figures soared into the sky!
The ones who had been waiting all along: Professor X, Magneto, Jean, and Jane!
The four hovered in the air, eyes fixed on Proxima Midnight amidst the dark night.
Proxima Midnight, seeing the sudden appearance of these four, flashed a look of disdain. She opened her mouth to utter so cruel words, savoring the fear of prey before death.
But at that mont, her gaze landed on Jane's weapon!
"That... that is..."
Proxima Midnight's pupils suddenly contracted!
"The Cosmic Blade!"
She shouted in disbelief!
But this ti, the Cosmic Blade in Jane's hand was not radiating that cold, dark energy as it did in the hands of the General Corvus. Instead, it had transford into an energy of light—hot as stars, filled with the power of life and creation!
However, because of its unique appearance, Proxima Midnight would never admit she was mistaken!
This was the General Corvus's divine weapon—the Cosmic Blade!
How could it possibly be here?
How could it have fallen into the hands of an Earthling?
In an instant, monstrous fury and endless killing intent erupted from the depths of Proxima Midnight's soul like a volcanic eruption!
"Why... why is the Cosmic Blade in your hands?"
She pointed at Jane, her voice shrill with rage!
Jane was a little surprised at her sudden reaction. She glanced at the artifact in her hand and answered naturally, "Because soone gave it to ."
"Lucci gave it to . What's the problem?"
Boom—
Her words were like pouring cold water into boiling oil!
Lucci gave it to her?
The one who killed the General Corvus... actually handed the divine weapon to this woman?
This was an utter humiliation! An insult to the General Corvus!
It was trampling on the General Corvus's glory as a warrior!
Proxima Midnight went completely mad! She scread shrilly, her eyes filled only with boundless killing intent!
"I'll kill you! Kill!"
Her whole body beca a bolt of black lightning, wrapped in endless resentnt and hatred, and she thrust her trident straight at Jane's heart—trying to reclaim the General Corvus's holy weapon, to wash away this sha with Jane's blood!
Jean frowned, instinctively preparing to move, but Jane stopped her!
"Jean, don't move!"
"The enemy is targeting ! Let handle this fight!"
Jane had long wanted a worthy opponent to test herself after her recent training.
Before her words even fell, Jane gripped the Cosmic Blade, advanced instead of retreating, and charged head-on into the black lightning!
No flashy moves, no dazzling energy explosions—just the most direct and pure... clash of weapons and strength!
Clang!
A deafening collision of tal erupted in the air!
The Cosmic Blade and Proxima Midnight's trident clashed fiercely in the dark night!
Visible shockwaves of energy—platinum and deep blue—spread out from the epicenter, rippling in all directions!
At the sa ti, the battle on the ground erupted!
Seeing her comrade start fighting, Black Dwarf roared excitedly, raised his giant teor hamr, ready to start a bloody massacre!
Magneto's eyes were cold; he was about to step forward and use his mighty powers to wrap this big man in a ball of iron.
But at that mont—
Roar!
A deafening roar ca from nowhere!
A huge green figure—like a teor falling from the sky—crossed hundreds of ters with unmatched montum and slamd into Black Dwarf!
It was the Hulk!
"Big guy! Your opponent is Hulk!"
Black Dwarf stared dumbfounded at the green monster in front of him, who was taller and stronger than himself, but then his eyes filled with bloodthirsty excitent!
He abandoned his previous target and turned to face Hulk—an equal match!
Roar!
He swung his teor hamr, which could easily smash a small spaceship, down at Hulk's head!
Hulk didn't dodge, but roared back, swinging his green fist, colliding head-on with the teor hamr!
Boom!
The sound of fist and hamr colliding was dull and thunderous, shaking everyone to the core!
In the sky, the battle was fierce.
Proxima Midnight, who had crossed the sea of stars and countless wars, thought it would be easy to defeat these "puny locals" of Earth. She'd even thought of piercing Jane's heart in three moves and reclaiming the Cosmic Blade.
But once they actually fought, she was shocked—
How could this be happening!?
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The trident in Proxima Midnight's hand beca a blur in the sky, each strike powerful enough to pierce a starship's hull! She moved like a ghost, every flash leaving behind deadly afterimages!
But the woman opposite her was like an unbreakable dam.
No matter how frantically she attacked, Jane could not only keep up with her speed—she was even faster!
The divine weapon in Jane's hand seed to have a life of its own, changing constantly, fully under Jane's control.
What frightened Proxima Midnight even more was realizing that Jane was... still practicing her moves during their fight!
She could clearly feel Jane was a bit awkward at first, but as the battle continued, her movents beca smoother and stronger!
The Cosmic Blade, in Jane's hands, was even stronger than when it was wielded by the General Corvus!
"How... how is this possible?"
After a fierce clash, Proxima Midnight was sent flying dozens of ters by a massive energy shock. She steadied herself, staring at Jane, who was calm and not even breathing heavily, while monstrous waves of shock rippled in her heart!
How could this be?
As one of the four fearso Black Order generals, she couldn't even defeat this woman?
How could she complete the mission given by her master?
"Could it be... am I so unlucky that I've run into the strongest being on Earth right away?"
Such a ridiculous thought inexplicably popped into Proxima Midnight's mind.
It must be so! This woman must be the strongest on this planet!
Just then, from the corner of her eye, she spotted another woman on the ground—Diana, with sword and shield.
Proxima Midnight's eyes flashed with cunning and cruelty!
If she couldn't take down her opponent quickly, she would grab soone else first!
She feinted, pushing Jane back, and dove toward Diana on the ground like a hawk swooping on its prey!
"Die! Native!"
But what greeted her wasn't a scream or a heavy blow, but a shield made of "god tal," radiating holy light!
Clang!
Diana raised her divine shield and precisely blocked Proxima Midnight's inevitable strike!
"What?"
Proxima Midnight felt like her trident had stabbed an unyielding holy mountain. The incomparable divine power rebounded from the shield, numbing her arm and sending her flying back!
Before she could steady herself, a golden whip of light lashed toward her like a venomous snake—the Lasso of Truth!
Proxima Midnight was shocked, twisting her body midair to dodge, but now she was no longer just shocked—she was utterly confused!
What's going on?
Why... Why is this new one even stronger than the last?
The power in this one... It's godly power!
Mighty godly power!
Could there still be gods on this backward planet?
Just as Proxima Midnight was starting to fall apart, a pained scream echoed in the distance!
"Ahhh—"
It was Black Dwarf!
Proxima Midnight turned back in horror and saw the ground battle was a one-sided massacre!
Hulk had grabbed Black Dwarf's arm and, just as Loki once did to him, started smashing the giant Black Dwarf into the ground left and right!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The entire earth shook violently!
The simple, crude "Hulk Combo" rained down, making Black Dwarf dizzy and battered, his armor shattering bit by bit, blood spraying from his mouth!
His teor hamr had already been knocked aside.
"Proxima Midnight! Sothing's wrong! Retreat!"
Black Dwarf struggled desperately to break free from Hulk's grip, sending a distress signal with his last ounce of strength!
If this went on, he'd be finished right here today!
Hearing Black Dwarf's shout, Proxima Midnight's heart instantly sank!
She looked at Jane in the sky, Diana with sword and shield on the ground, the two unfathomable elders yet to act, and Jean...
A chill ran down her spine from her tailbone to her crown!
What kind of backwater native planet was this?
It was a dragon's pool and a tiger's den!
"Retreat!"
Proxima Midnight made a decisive decision, giving a reluctant retreat order!
She no longer dared think about glory—her whole being transford into a strear of light, fleeing this ghostly place!
Black Dwarf, battered by Hulk and half-dead, also scrambled desperately to escape.
But Jean, floating coldly in the air, sneered with contempt.
"You broke our school wall and think you can just run away?"
"Dream on!"
As her words fell, an indescribable, terrifying power burst forth from her body, as if the whole universe had been waiting for this mont!
The Phoenix Force, like a dam-bursting galaxy, instantly swept across the entire battlefield!
Proxima Midnight and Black Dwarf, who were trying to escape, suddenly froze!
It felt like they'd fallen into cent that instantly solidified, and everything around them was completely locked down by an irresistible force!
They couldn't move!
Then, under countless fearful and horrified gazes, their bodies were seized by invisible forces from the earth and sky, suspended before Jean.
