Chapter 305
The Frost Giant snorted coldly. It swung its massive arm, attempting to block Wanda's magic attack. However, Wanda's magic was exceptionally cunning; it seemed to have a life of its own, bypassing the Frost Giant's arm and striking its body directly. The Frost Giant immediately let out a painful roar, its body beginning to tremble as if it could not withstand the power of Wanda's magic.
Seeing this, Hode felt a surge of joy. He knew this was the perfect opportunity for them to counterattack. He clenched his fist, mobilized the remaining power within his body, and threw a punch at the Frost Giant. His fist seemed to carry the force of thunder, colliding with the Frost Giant's body with a dull thud.
The Frost Giant stumbled back a few steps from Hode's punch, a flicker of astonishment flashing in its eyes. It clearly had not expected that Hode, this seemingly weak human, could unleash such powerful force. However, it did not give up, instead launching an even more frenzied attack.
The Frost Giant waved its massive arms, attempting to knock both Hode and Wanda away. Hode and Wandawere exceptionally agile, dodging the Frost Giant's attacks while searching for an opportunity to counterattack. Wanda swung her magic wand again, and a more brilliant beam of magic shot out, striking the Frost Giant directly in the head. The Frost Giant immediately let out a painful shriek, its body beginning to totter.
Hode seized the chance to rush forward, clenched his fist, and swung at the Frost Giant again. This time, his power was even more surging and immense, as if it could pierce through everything. His fist struck the Frost Giant's body heavily, sending it flying. The Frost Giant tumbled in the air a few times before finally crashing heavily to the ground with a dull thud.
Seeing this, everyone cheered. They knew that Hode and Wanda had successfully repelled the Frost Giant, buying them valuable breathing time. Although Iron Man's War Armor was badly damaged, he still excitedly waved his arms, cheering Hode and Wanda on.
Diana also revealed a gratified smile; she knew that the seamless cooperation between Hode and Wanda was the key to their victory over the enemy. She brandished her divine sword, ready to join the battle at any moment to provide support for Hode and Wanda.
However, the Frost Giant did not give up. It struggled to climb up from the ground, its eyes flashing with an even more frenzied cold light. It seemed to realize that Hode and Wanda were its greatest threats and had to be eliminated as soon as possible.
The Frost Giant launched another attack, its figure turning into a streak of ice-shadow as it charged straight toward Hode and Wanda. Hode and Wanda, however, were fearless; they stood close together, ready to meet this new challenge.
Just then, Hode suddenly felt a special power emanating from within Wanda. It was a warm and familiar power, as if it could resonate with his own soul. Hode felt a surge of joy; he knew this was the brand-new power of Wanda's Chaos Magic, and it was the key to their victory over the Frost Giant.
He tightly gripped Wanda's hand, merging his power with hers. At this moment, their combined strength reached an unprecedented height, as if it could pierce through all obstacles.
The Frost Giant's figure was closing in on them, but Hodeand Wanda remained exceptionally calm. They were waiting for the opportune moment to arrive, ready to deal the Frost Giant a fatal blow.
At the very moment the Frost Giant was about to strike them, Hode and Wanda suddenly launched their counterattack. Their figures seemed to transform into two bolts of lightning, rushing straight toward the Frost Giant. Their power erupted completely at that moment, forming an unprecedentedly powerful energy wave.
The energy wave instantly struck the Frost Giant, sending it flying. The Frost Giant tumbled in the air a few times before finally crashing heavily to the ground, emitting a deafening explosion. Its body began to gradually dissipate, as if it had been completely destroyed by that powerful energy wave.
Seeing this, everyone cheered. They knew that Hode and Wanda had successfully defeated the Frost Giant, winning a valuable victory for them. Iron Man excitedly waved his arms, applauding and cheering for Hode and Wanda. Diana also revealed a brilliant smile; she felt immensely proud of Hode and Wanda's bravery and determination.
However, just as everyone was immersed in the joy of victory, a sudden anomaly appeared in the sky once again. A dazzling light tore across the horizon, as if signaling that a new crisis was imminent. Everyone looked up at the sky, their hearts filled with vigilance and unease.
"What… is going on?" Hode was startled, staring intently at the dazzling light in the sky, attempting to find the source of this anomaly. He sensed an unprecedentedly powerful wave of energy; that power seemed far to exceed that of the previous Dark Titan and the Frost Giant.
Just then, a mysterious voice resonated in the sky, carrying a trace of majesty and mystery. "Do you think that defeating the Frost Giant means everything is fine? How naive! The real test has only just begun!" The voice seemed to come from the distant stars, carrying an irresistible power.
Hearing this, everyone felt a shiver in their hearts. They knew that the owner of this voice was definitely no pushover, and his strength was absolutely not to be underestimated. They pulled themselves together, preparing to meet the new challenge. Hode tightly gripped Wanda's hand, his eyes flashing with determination and resolve. He knew that no matter what enemy came, they would face it together and defeat it together.
Just then, the light in the sky suddenly became even more dazzling, as if it were about to swallow the entire World. Everyone squinted, trying to see the figure within the light. However, the light was exceptionally blinding, making it impossible for them to look directly at it.
Suddenly, a massive figure stepped out from the light. It was a burly warrior, radiating golden light, with eyes flashing with a burning radiance. He held a massive war sword, as if it could sever all obstacles.
"Who… is this?" Hode was startled, staring intently at the golden warrior, trying to identify him. However, the warrior did not give him any chance to answer, instead swinging his war sword directly and launching an attack at them…
Leaving only the shocking image of the golden warrior swinging his sword, along with the tense and vigilant expressions of Hode and the others, signaling that a more thrilling battle was about to unfold.
Chapter 367: The Golden Warrior
Hode's heart rate accelerated suddenly; he felt an unprecedented sense of oppression. The appearance of this golden warrior was undoubtedly a brand-new, even more powerful enemy. His eyes flashed with vigilance and determination as he tightly gripped Wanda's hand, as if the bond between them had become even stronger at this moment.
"Wanda, we must be careful; this guy is not simple." Hodesaid in a low voice, his tone low but filled with determination. He knew that facing such an enemy, they needed not only power but also wisdom and strategy.
Wanda nodded, her Chaos Magic surging within her body, ready at any moment to deal with the incoming attack. Her eyes flashed with determination and trust, as if saying, "No matter what happens, I will be by your side."
The golden warrior did not give them much time to prepare. He swung the massive war sword in his hand, and a golden sword beam instantly tore through the sky, rushing straight toward Hode and Wanda. The sword beam carried endless pressure, as if it could sever everything.
Hode and Wanda reacted quickly, their figures flashing as they skillfully dodged the golden sword beam. However, the golden warrior's attack did not cease; he swung his war sword continuously, and golden sword beams rained down like dense rain, forcing Hode and Wanda to dodge repeatedly.
"This is not a solution; we must find his weakness." Hodepondered inwardly, his eyes flashing with a sharp light. He stared intently at the golden warrior's movements, trying to find the pattern in his attacks.
Wanda also felt the pressure; her Chaos Magic was surging within her, as if searching for an opportunity to break through. She knew that only by merging their powers with Hode could they defeat this powerful enemy.
Just then, the golden warrior suddenly changed his attack method. He swung his war sword, and a massive golden sword shadow formed instantly, crashing down straight toward Hode and Wanda. The sword shadow carried World-destroying power, as if it could crush everything.
Hode and Wanda felt a shiver in their hearts; they knew they could not retreat at this moment. They stood close together, merging their powers. Hode felt the warm power emanating from within Wanda—it was the unique aura of her Chaos Magic, as if it were injecting endless courage into him.
They swung their arms simultaneously, and a brilliant beam of magic fused with Hode's fist, forming an unprecedentedly powerful energy wave. The energy wave instantly met the golden warrior's sword shadow, and the two collided, emitting a deafening explosion.
The golden warrior clearly had not expected Hode and Wanda to be able to unleash such powerful force, and a flicker of astonishment flashed in his eyes. However, he did not give up, instead launching an even more frenzied attack.
Hode and Wanda, however, were fearless; they stood close together, jointly dealing with the golden warrior's frenzied attacks. Their figures darted across the battlefield like two bolts of lightning, making them elusive to the golden warrior.
During the intense battle, Hode suddenly felt a special fluctuation coming from within Wanda. It was a gentle yet powerful force, as if it could resonate with his own soul. Hode felt a surge of joy; he knew this was the brand-new power of Wanda's Chaos Magic, and it was the key to their victory over the golden warrior.
He tightly gripped Wanda's hand, merging his power with hers. At this moment, their combined strength reached an unprecedented height, as if it could pierce through all obstacles. They swung their arms simultaneously, and a more brilliant beam of magic shot out, rushing straight toward the golden warrior.
The golden warrior saw this and swung his war sword to meet it. However, he clearly underestimated the power of Hode and Wanda. The magic light instantly struck his war sword, knocking him back repeatedly. A flicker of astonishment and unwillingness flashed in the golden warrior's eyes; he clearly had not expected that these two seemingly weak humans could unleash such powerful force.
Hode and Wanda seized the opportunity to launch a fierce assault; their figures seemed to transform into two whirlwinds, rushing straight toward the golden warrior. Their power erupted completely at that moment, forming an unprecedentedly powerful energy wave. The energy wave instantly engulfed the golden warrior, leaving him unable to break free.
The golden warrior struggled within the energy wave, his figure gradually becoming blurred. Finally, amidst a deafening explosion, the golden warrior's figure dissipated completely. Seeing this, everyone cheered. They knew that Hode and Wanda had successfully defeated the golden warrior, winning a valuable victory for them.
However, the battle did not end there. A sudden anomaly appeared in the sky again; a black rift slowly tore open, from which streams of Dark Power surged out. That power carried endless evil and destruction, as if it were about to swallow the entire World.
"What… is this?" Hode was startled, staring intently at the black rift in the sky, attempting to find the source of this anomaly. He sensed an unprecedentedly powerful wave of energy; that power seemed far to exceed all previous enemies.
Just then, a familiar voice rang in Hode's ear: "Hode, be careful; this is the power of the Dark Dimension. It is more powerful than any enemy we have encountered before." Hode turned his head to look; it was Doctor Strange, his eyes filled with vigilance and worry.
Hode nodded; he knew that Doctor Strange would not speak without cause. He tightly gripped Wanda's hand, his eyes flashing with determination and resolve. He knew that no matter what enemy came, they would face it together and defeat it together.
Just then, a figure stepped out from the black rift. It was a You-Know-Who cloaked in black robes, his eyes flashing with eerie green light, as if he could see through everything. He held a staff, and at the top of the staff was embedded a gem that flickered with an eerie light.
"Finally found you, Avengers." The You-Know-Who said coldly, his voice filled with evil and mockery, "Do you think you can easily defeat me? How naive! I am the ruler of the Dark Dimension, the Lord of Darkness! Today is your doomsday!"
Hearing this, everyone felt a shiver in their hearts. They knew that this Lord of Darkness was definitely no pushover, and his strength was absolutely not to be underestimated. They pulled themselves together, preparing to meet the new challenge.
Hode stared intently at the Lord of Darkness, his eyes flashing with a sharp light. He knew that this battle would be a test for all of them. He felt the warm power emanating from within Wanda—it was the unique aura of her Chaos Magic, as if it were injecting endless courage into him.
"Wanda, let's go together!" Hode said in a low voice, his tone low but filled with determination. He knew that only by working together with Wanda could they defeat this powerful enemy.
Wanda nodded, her Chaos Magic surging within her body, ready at any moment to deal with the incoming battle. Her eyes flashed with determination and trust, as if saying, "Hode, I believe in you; let's defeat him together!"
Just then, the Lord of Darkness suddenly swung his staff, and a black energy wave instantly shot out, rushing straight toward Hode and Wanda. The energy wave carried endless evil and destruction, as if it could crush everything.
Hode and Wanda felt a shiver in their hearts; they knew they could not retreat at this moment. They stood close together, merging their powers. A brilliant beam of magicfused with Hode's fist, forming an unprecedentedly powerful energy shield. The energy shield instantly met the Lord of Darkness's energy wave, and the two collided, emitting a deafening explosion...
Leaving only the deafening explosion and the tense and vigilant expressions of Hode, Wanda, and the others. They knew that a more thrilling battle was about to unfold, and their fates would be completely changed in this battle.
Chapter 368: Worse Than We Imagined
Hode stared intently at the point where the energy shield intersected with the black energy wave released by the Lord of Darkness, a sense of the tacit understanding and power he had just shared with Wanda while resisting the golden warrior constantly welling up in his heart. He knew that what they needed at this moment was not just the fusion of power, but also seamless cooperation of their souls. Wanda's Chaos Magic felt like a warm and surging stream in his perception, constantly providing him with the courage and strength to persevere.
"Hode, concentrate; we can do it!" Wanda's voice rang in his ear, carrying unquestionable determination. Her eyes were like two deep lakes, in which flickered unconditional trust and support for Hode.
The energy shield began to tremble under the impact of the black energy wave. Hode could feel every collision of power like a giant hammer striking his heart. But he did not retreat; instead, his inner conviction grew firmer. He took a deep breath, binding Wanda's power even more closely with his own will, and the energy shield gradually began to emit a dazzling light, slowly pushing the black energy wave back.
The Lord of Darkness saw this, a flash of surprise in his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by a deeper sneer. "Hmph, just a Death struggle." He whispered, waving his staff again, and the black energy wave surged, as if an enraged beast roaring to swallow everything.
Hode felt a tightness in his heart, but he did not panic. Just then, he suddenly felt a strange and familiar fluctuation—a unique connection from deep within his heart with Wanda. He realized in a flash that as his intimacy with Wandacontinued to increase, he had not only gained the blessing of Chaos Magic but also unlocked a brand-new ability—Heart Resonance.
He closed his eyes, sensing Wanda's presence with all his heart, their minds seemingly fused into one at this moment. Hode could clearly perceive every subtle emotional fluctuation of Wanda, as well as every trace of Chaos Magic flowing within her. He guided this power, perfectly merging it with his own energy shield to form an impenetrable Heart Resonance barrier.
The black energy wave struck the Heart Resonance barrier but hit an invisible wall, unable to advance even an inch. The Lord of Darkness's expression finally became grave; he clearly had not expected Hode and Wanda to resist his attack so ingeniously.
"It seems you two are indeed interesting." The Lord of Darkness said coldly, his tone no longer as contemptuous as before, "However, the game has only just begun."
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly disappeared from where he was. When he reappeared, he was behind Hode and Wanda. He swung his staff violently, bringing up a fierce black whirlwind. Hode and Wanda turned almost simultaneously, and the shield formed by Wanda's Chaos Magic instantly rose, blocking the sudden strike.
However, the Lord of Darkness's attack did not stop. He moved strangely across the battlefield, every swing of his staff bringing up a wave of destructive energy. Hode and Wanda had to respond with full concentration; their figures left afterimages on the battlefield, their speed astonishing.
In the intense battle, Hode gradually discovered a subtle pattern in the Lord of Darkness's attacks—whenever he was preparing to launch his strongest strike, the fluctuation of the Dark Power within him would reach a peak. His heart stirred, and he immediately told Wanda about this discovery.
Wanda nodded, her eyes flashing with wisdom. She knew this was the perfect opportunity for them to counterattack. The two clung tightly to each other again, exerting the power of Heart Resonance to the extreme. They waited for that moment to arrive.
Finally, the Lord of Darkness was charging up again, the fluctuation of Dark Power within him reaching an unprecedented height. Hode and Wanda looked at each other, their eyes filled with determination. They swung their arms simultaneously, and a dazzling light of magicfused with Hode's fist, forming an unprecedentedly powerful energy beam.
That energy beam shot out instantly, heading straight for the Lord of Darkness. The Lord of Darkness clearly sensed the unusual nature of this strike and hurriedly waved his staff to intercept. However, this time, his power appeared so insignificant under the joint attack of Hode and Wanda. The energy beam instantly pierced his dark shield, striking his main body directly.
The Lord of Darkness let out a scream, his figure beginning to distort and deform under the impact of the energy beam. However, just as he was about to be completely eradicated, he suddenly grinned, and his figure gradually became blurred.
"Hmph, do you think you can defeat me like this? Too naive." The Lord of Darkness's voice echoed in the air, "The Dark Dimension is endless, and I am merely a part of it. You can never truly destroy me."
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure completely dissipated into the air. Hode and Wanda looked at each other, their hearts heavy. They knew that although this battle had temporarily come to an end, the threat of the Lord of Darkness was far from resolved.
Just then, a familiar voice suddenly came from the sky. Hode looked up and saw Doctor Strange hovering in the air, his eyes filled with seriousness.
"Hode, Wanda, the threat of the Lord of Darkness is far more serious than we imagined. He is merely a vanguard of the Dark Dimension. The real danger is still to come." Doctor Strange said in a low voice.
Hode nodded; he knew Doctor Strange wouldn't say this without reason. He held Wanda's hand tightly, his eyes flashing with determination.
"No matter what comes, we will face it together." Hodewhispered.
Wanda also nodded, her eyes filled with trust and support. "Hode, I believe in you. Together, we will overcome everything."
Just then, a strange change suddenly occurred in the sky. A huge crack slowly opened, and from it poured waves of unprecedentedly powerful energy. That power carried infinite majesty and holiness, as if it came from another dimension.
Everyone looked up, their hearts filled with shock and confusion. They knew that the appearance of this power was absolutely not a coincidence. A more thrilling battle was about to begin, and their destiny would be rewritten in this battle.
Hode stared at the crack, various guesses constantly emerging in his heart. He felt Wanda's hand clutching his tightly, and that warmth and strength gave him unprecedented courage.
"No matter what comes, we will face it together." Hodesaid again in a low voice, his voice low but filled with determination and resolve.
Wanda nodded, her eyes flashing with fearless light. She knew that as long as she was with Hode, nothing could stop their progress.
Just then, a melodious and mysterious melody suddenly came from the crack, as if it were a call from ancient times. Everyone held their breath, waiting for the appearance of that unknown power. And Hode and Wanda were already prepared to meet the new challenge...
Chapter 369: Full of Holiness and Majesty
Hode and Wanda clung to each other, their eyes locked on the widening crack. The mysterious melody was like an ancient spell, pulling at their hearts and making it impossible for them to look away. As the crack gradually opened, an unprecedentedly powerful aura of energy rushed toward them—a feeling that was both holy and majestic, mixed with a hint of unpredictable danger.
"This... what is this power?" Wanda's voice trembled slightly. Although she possessed Chaos Magic, she felt an unprecedented insignificance in the face of this unknown power.
Hode took a deep breath, trying to keep himself calm. He felt the temperature of Wanda's palm; that warmth was like an anchor, allowing his chaotic thoughts to gradually stabilize. "No matter what it is, we have to face it together." He said firmly, his eyes flashing with unyielding light.
Just then, a brilliant light suddenly poured out of the crack. The light was as dazzling as the scorching sun, instantly illuminating the entire battlefield. Everyone squinted their eyes and saw a female warrior wearing silver War Armorand holding a sword of light slowly walking out of the light. Her face was cold and beautiful, and her eyes revealed an inviolable majesty.
"Who are you?" Hode asked loudly, his voice echoing on the battlefield.
The female warrior slowly turned around, her gaze lingering on Hode and Wanda for a moment. "I am Alya, the Guardian of the Light Dimension." She said, her voice like the sound of nature, yet carrying an unquestionable power, "The threat of the Lord of Darkness has spread to the Light Dimension, and I must intervene."
Hode and Wanda looked at each other, both seeing the surprise in the other's eyes. They didn't expect this battle to involve the power of other dimensions.
"We need your help." Hode said sincerely, "The strength of the Lord of Darkness far exceeds our imagination; he is only a vanguard, and the real danger is still to come."
Alya nodded, a flash of gravity in her eyes. "I have already felt the surge of Dark Power; this is not a threat we can deal with alone." She said, "We need to unite and fight against this Dark Power together."
Just then, a roar came from the sky, and members of the Avengers and the Justice League arrived one after another. Iron Man wore his high-tech War Armor, his eyes flashing with firm light; Superman hovered in the air, his figure like an immovable mountain; Batman stood to the side, his eyes as sharp as a hawk, ready to deal with any sudden situation at any time.
"It seems our enemy this time is not simple." Iron Man said, his voice echoing on the battlefield through the speaker of his War Armor, "We need to unite all forces that can be united."
Hode looked at the heroes, an unprecedented sense of mission surging in his heart. He knew this battle was not just for themselves, but for the future of the entire Universe.
"Alya, are you willing to fight with us?" Hode asked loudly, his voice full of expectation.
Alya nodded, her eyes flashing with firm light. "I am willing to fight side by side with you to confront the Dark Power." She said, the sword of light in her hand shining brightly in the sun.
With Alya's addition, the morale of the heroes instantly soared. They stood in their positions, ready to meet the coming battle.
Although the Lord of Darkness had temporarily dissipated, his threat was like the Sword of Damocles hanging over everyone's heads, which could descend at any time. And this time, what he brought would not be simple Dark Power, but the invasion of the entire Dark Dimension.
The battle was on the verge of breaking out, and the air was filled with tension. Hode held Wanda's hand tightly; he could feel the Chaos Magic within Wanda stirring, as if it were also looking forward to the arrival of this battle.
"Hode, are we ready?" Wanda whispered, her eyes flashing with fearless light.
Hode nodded, his eyes filled with firmness. "We are ready. No matter what comes, we will face it together." He said, his tone filled with resolve.
Just then, a violent vibration suddenly came from the sky. Everyone looked up and saw a huge black vortex slowly forming, in which infinite Dark Power surged, as if it were about to swallow the entire World.
"It's here!" Hode shouted, his voice full of tension, "Everyone, be careful!"
The heroes stood ready, knowing that this battle would determine the fate of the entire Universe. And Hode and Wanda, as key figures in this battle, had to exert their greatest power.
Dark Creatures kept pouring out of the black vortex, pouncing on the heroes with claws and teeth. The heroes launched their attacks, and the battlefield instantly fell into chaos.
Hode and Wanda cooperated closely, their Heart Resonance power exerted to the extreme at this moment. Hode swung his fists, each punch containing the power of Wanda's Chaos Magic, repelling the pouncing Dark Creatures. Wanda wielded the shield formed by Chaos Magic, protecting Hode from attacks.
Alya also joined the battle, her sword of light shining brightly in the sun, each strike severing the tentacles of the Dark Creatures and making them scream.
Iron Man and Superman engaged in an intense battle in the air, their attacks like thunder, causing the Dark Creatures to fall one after another. Batman shuttled on the ground, his batarangs like the kiss of Death, accurately hitting the vital points of every Dark Creature.
The battle was extremely intense, with both sides giving their all. However, the power of the Dark Dimensionseemed endless, and Dark Creatures poured out continuously, putting pressure on the heroes.
Hode knew this couldn't go on; he had to find the weakness of the Dark Dimension to defeat this Dark Power in one fell swoop. He stared closely at the black vortex, trying to find a flaw.
Just then, he suddenly felt a familiar and warm fluctuation. It was the unique connection from deep within his heart with Wanda, their minds seemingly fused into one at this moment. Hode realized in a flash that as his intimacy with Wanda continued to increase, he had not only gained the blessing of Chaos Magic but also unlocked a brand-new ability—the ability to perceive the weaknesses of the Dark Dimension.
He closed his eyes, sensing Wanda's presence with all his heart, their Heart Resonance reaching an unprecedented height at this moment. Hode could clearly perceive every trace of power flow in the Dark Dimension, as well as where its weakness lay.
He opened his eyes suddenly and shouted: "Everyone, concentrate your attacks on the center of the black vortex! That is the weakness of the Dark Dimension!"
Hearing this, the heroes adjusted their attack directions and concentrated their power on the center of the black vortex. A dazzling light shot out instantly, heading straight for the black vortex.
The black vortex began to tremble under the impact of the light, as if it could not withstand this powerful force. The Dark Creatures also fled, wailing, as they clearly felt the threat of Death.
However, just when everyone thought victory was about to be achieved, the black vortex suddenly erupted with an unprecedentedly powerful force. This force was like a surging flood, instantly submerging the heroes' attacks.
The heroes were shaken back, shock and gravity on their faces. They knew this battle was far more difficult than they had imagined.
And Hode and Wanda were also separated by the impact of this force. They fell to the ground, feeling the turbulence of power within them. However, there was no retreat or fear in their eyes; instead, they were filled with an even firmer light.
Chapter 306
"Hode, are we okay?" Wanda struggled to stand up, her eyes filled with concern.
Hode also struggled to his feet and shook his head to show he was fine. "We're fine, it's just that this power is too strong," he said, his tone heavy with gravity. "But we can't give up. We must keep fighting."
Just then, a melodious and mysterious melody suddenly echoed from the sky—the same melody that had previously drifted from the rift. Everyone looked up to see another powerful force surging from the rift. This power was completely different from Alya's, yet it was equally filled with holiness and majesty.
"This is...?" Hode asked in surprise, his eyes filled with confusion.
However, before he could react, that power instantly merged into his body. Hode felt an unprecedentedly powerful energy surging within him, and a dazzling light instantly flashed in his eyes.
Chapter 370: Easily Resisting That Eerie Power
Hode felt the new power surging inside him was both warm and filled with the unknown. It felt like an ancient and mysterious energy, closely linked to the depths of his soul. He closed his eyes, trying to sense its source and nature, his heart filled with wonder and anticipation.
"Hode, what's wrong?" Wanda's anxious voice came. Seeing Hode suddenly close his eyes and tremble slightly, she worried if he had been hurt.
Hode slowly opened his eyes, which shone with an unprecedented light. He looked at Wanda, a smile tugging at the corner of his lips. "I'm fine, Wanda. In fact, I think I've gained a new ability."
Hearing this, curiosity flashed in Wanda's eyes. "A new ability? What kind of ability?"
Hode shook his head. He wasn't entirely clear on the specific function of this power yet, but he could feel that it contained immense potential. "I'm not quite sure yet, but I can feel that this power is different from all my previous abilities. It's... deeper, more mysterious."
Just then, the black vortex in the sky became restless again. The Dark Power surged forward like a tide, seemingly threatened by the new power Hode had just obtained.
"It seems we don't have time to study this slowly." Hodetook a deep breath. Looking at Wanda, a firm light shone in his eyes. "We have to keep fighting and protect this World."
Wanda nodded. Her Chaos Magic condensed in her hands, turning into a gorgeous shield as she stood firmly by Hode's side. "No matter what happens, I will be with you."
Alya also felt the change in Hode. Her eyes were filled with curiosity and anticipation as she looked at him. "Hode, this power in you... is very unusual. Perhaps it can be the key to our victory over the Lord of Darkness."
Hode smiled slightly and looked at Alya, his heart filled with gratitude. "Thank you, Alya. I will do my best not to let everyone down."
As Hode's words fell, the new power within him seemed to feel his determination. It began to flow slowly, blending with his Chaos Magic to form a brand-new energy fluctuation.
"Is everyone ready?" Hode shouted, his voice full of power and resolve.
The heroes responded one after another. They knew that this battle had reached a critical moment and they had to go all out.
Iron Man's War Armor activated once again, shining brightly as he flew into the sky, preparing to launch a new round of attacks on the black vortex. Superman hovered in the air, his eyes like torches, ready at any moment to handle any sudden situations. Batman moved swiftly on the ground, his figure like a ghost, preparing to deal a fatal blow to the Dark Creatures.
Hode and Wanda coordinated closely, their Heart Resonance reaching a new height at this moment. Hodeswung his fists, each punch carrying the enhancement of the new power, its might multiplied. Wanda brandished the shield formed by her Chaos Magic, protecting Hodefrom attacks while continuously launching counterattacks against the Dark Creatures.
Alya's Long Sword of Light shone even more brilliantly in the sunlight. Her sword technique was like a dance, each strike precisely severing the tentacles of the Dark Creatures, making them shriek in pain.
The battle once again reached a fever pitch, with both sides giving their all. However, this time Hode clearly felt a difference. The new power in his body seemed to have its own consciousness, continuously guiding him to perceive the deeper levels of the Dark Dimension.
"Hode, I feel a strange fluctuation of power," Wanda said suddenly, her eyes flashing with vigilance.
Hode nodded, having felt the presence of that power as well. "Be careful, Wanda. This power... is highly unusual. It seems to want to invade our minds."
Just then, a cold and eerie force suddenly swept toward them. This force was invisible and colorless, yet it carried a strong erosive quality, attempting to penetrate deep into their minds.
Hode was startled. He quickly mobilized the new power in his body to form a sturdy mental barrier, resisting the invasion of that erosive force. Wanda also closed her eyes tightly, using her Chaos Magic to construct her own mental defense.
However, that force was exceptionally stubborn, continuously battering their mental barriers in an attempt to find a weakness.
"We must fight back!" Hode shouted, his eyes flashing with a look of resolve.
He took a deep breath and tried to fuse the new power in his body with Chaos Magic, forming a brand-new way of attacking. He suddenly threw a punch, and a brilliant beam of light instantly shot out, heading straight for the erosive force.
The light clashed with the erosive force, erupting into a dazzling radiance. Within that light, Hode seemed to see a familiar and warm figure. That was... He gasped in his heart, suddenly understanding.
0---Requesting Flowers---
"Is... Is it you?" Hode cried out in surprise. He hadn't expected that the source of this new power would actually be her.
However, before he could react, the erosive force suddenly became even more violent, as if provoked by Hode's words. It frantically battered Hode and Wanda's mental barriers, trying to swallow them whole.
Hode and Wanda exchanged a look, both seeing the determination in each other's eyes. They knew there was no retreat now; only by going all out could they possibly defeat this powerful force.
Once again, they coordinated closely, pushing the power within them to its absolute limit. Hode's new power and Wanda's Chaos Magic blended together, forming an indestructible defensive line that resisted the invasion of the erosive force.
...
Just then, a violent tremor suddenly shook the sky. Everyone looked up to see an even more powerful and eerie force surging from the black vortex. This force was like a massive Black Dragon, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws as it lunged at the heroes.
"Watch out!" Hode shouted, his heart filled with tension.
The heroes stood ready, waiting in strict preparation. They knew this power was by no means ordinary; if they were hit by it, the consequences would be unimaginable.
However, just as that force was about to pounce on everyone, Hode suddenly felt a warm and familiar power pour into his body. He snapped his eyes open, only to see a familiar figure appear by his side. That was...
"You... how did you get here?" Hode asked in surprise, his eyes shining with disbelief.
However, before he could react, the figure had already swung her weapon to meet the incoming eerie force. With a flash of brilliant light, that eerie force was actually sliced in half instantly, dissipating into wisps of black smoke in the air.
The heroes looked at this scene in shock. They hadn't expected that someone could so easily fend off the attack of that eerie force.
As for Hode, he looked at the figure beside him, his heart filled with gratitude and pleasant surprise. He knew that for this battle, they had gained another powerful ally...
Chapter 371: Closely Connected Power
Hode stared blankly at the familiar figure. It was Wonder Woman Diana. Clad in a brilliant War Armor and holding the Lasso of Truth, her eyes shone with determination and bravery. Her appearance was like a dawn, instantly illuminating this battlefield shrouded in darkness.
"Diana, how are you here?" Although Hode was pleasantly surprised, he couldn't help but ask. He hadn't expected that at this critical moment, Wonder Woman would actually appear to fight side by side with them.
Diana smiled slightly, her voice like heavenly music. "I felt a powerful evil force threatening this World, and I knew I couldn't sit by and watch. Moreover, I seemed to feel your presence, Hode. I knew you were here, so I came."
Hode's heart warmed. He looked at Diana, his eyes shining with gratitude. He knew that Diana's appearance was not just a boost to their combat strength, but also an encouragement to their morale. "705u.com-53 Reading Club"
Just then, the black vortex in the sky became restless once more, as if extremely angered by Diana's appearance. Waves of Dark Power surged out like a tide, heading straight for the heroes.
"Everyone, watch out! The Dark Power has grown stronger again!" Hode shouted, his voice filled with vigilance.
The heroes stood ready. They knew this battle had reached its most critical moment. Iron Man's War Armor gleamed as he continuously fired energy beams, trying to stop the advance of the Dark Power. Superman hovered in the air, his eyes like torches, ready at any moment to handle any sudden situations. Batman moved swiftly on the ground, his figure like a ghost, constantly searching for weaknesses in the Dark Creatures.
Meanwhile, Hode coordinated closely with Wanda and Diana. The new power in his body blended with Wanda's Chaos Magic, forming an indestructible line of defense. Diana brandished her Lasso of Truth, each swing accurately binding the Dark Creatures and rendering them unable to move.
The battle once again reached a fever pitch, with both sides giving their all. However, Hode clearly felt a difference; in close contact with Diana, the new power in his body seemed to undergo a subtle change. He felt an unprecedented force surging within him—a power both warm and mighty, as if capable of devouring all darkness.
"Hode, I can feel the power in you growing," Wanda said suddenly, her eyes flashing with curiosity and surprise.
Hode nodded, having felt the change in this power as well. "Yes, Wanda. I think this might be because of Diana's appearance. She... she seems to have some special connection with this new power in me."
Hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Diana's eyes, which quickly turned into determination. "No matter the reason, we will fight together until the very end."
Just then, an even more violent wave of Dark Powersuddenly swept toward them. This power was stronger than any before, as if trying to completely swallow them in one go.
Hode was startled. He quickly mobilized the new power in his body, blending it with Wanda's Chaos Magic and Diana's Lasso of Truth to form an unprecedentedly powerful line of defense. However, that Dark Power was exceptionally stubborn, continuously battering their defense line in an attempt to find a weakness.
"We must fight back!" Hode shouted, his eyes flashing with a look of resolve.
He took a deep breath and tried to merge his new power with the powers of Wanda and Diana, forming a brand-new way of attacking. He suddenly threw a punch, and a brilliant beam of light instantly shot out, heading straight for the Dark Power.

The light collided with the Dark Power, erupting into a dazzling radiance. In that light, Hode seemed to see waves of Dark Creatures instantly vaporized, turning into wisps of black smoke that dissipated into the air. And that Dark Power, under the combined efforts of Hode and the others, gradually began to weaken.
"Keep going, we are almost there!" Hode shouted, his voice filled with encouragement and strength.
The heroes responded one after another, knowing that this was the most critical moment. As long as they persisted a little longer, they might be able to defeat this powerful force.
However, just as they were about to achieve victory, a strange laughter suddenly echoed from the sky. Everyone looked up to see a figure stepping out of the black vortex. It was the Lord of Darkness—a terrifying entity possessing endless Dark Power.
"Do you think you can defeat me with just this little bit of power? How naive!" the Lord of Darkness sneered, his voice filled with mockery and disdain.
The heroes' hearts tightened; they knew the real battle had only just begun.
The Lord of Darkness waved his dark magic wand, and waves of Dark Power surged out like a tidal wave, rushing straight towards Hode and the others. This power was stronger than any previous attack, as if it wanted to swallow them whole in one go.
Hode felt a chill in his heart; he knew that this was a life-or-death moment. He had to give it his all to have any chance of defeating this powerful force.
He took a deep breath, attempting to fuse his new power with the powers of Wanda and Diana, forming an unprecedentedly powerful attack. He leaped up suddenly, brandishing his fist, and charged straight at the Lord of Darkness.
Wanda and Diana followed closely behind. Their powers intertwined with Hode's, forming a brilliant radiance. This light, like a giant dragon, bared its fangs and brandished its claws as it lunged at the Lord of Darkness.
Seeing this, a flash of surprise crossed the Lord of Darkness's eyes. He had not expected Hode and the others to be able to unleash such powerful force. However, he was not panicked; he merely sneered, waved his dark magic wand, and met the attack of Hode and the others head-on.
Light and darkness collided, erupting into a deafening roar. In that roar, Hode seemed to see waves of Dark Powerinstantly vaporized, and the body of the Lord of Darknesstrembled slightly.
However, just then, a cold and strange power suddenly surged from behind the Lord of Darkness, rushing straight towards Hode and the others. This power was invisible and colorless, yet it carried a strong corrosive quality, attempting to invade the depths of their minds.
Hode was startled and quickly mobilized his new power, forming a sturdy mental barrier to resist the invasion of that corrosive force. Wanda and Diana also closed their eyes, using their respective powers to build their own mental defenses.
However, that force was unusually tenacious, constantly battering their mental barriers. Hode and the others felt unprecedented pressure, as if they could be swallowed by this power at any moment.
"We must find a way to counterattack!" Hode shouted, his eyes flashing with determination. However, just then, he suddenly felt a warm and familiar power surge into his body...
It was a call from the depths of his soul, a power closely connected to his spirit. Hode opened his eyes suddenly, and a brilliant radiance shot out from him, heading straight towards that corrosive force.
The light collided with the corrosive force, erupting into a dazzling radiance. In that light, Hode seemed to see a familiar and warm figure, it was... He was startled, then immediately understood. It was the most sincere emotion from the depths of his heart, a power transformed from the deep bond between him, Wanda, and Diana.
However, just then, the Lord of Darkness suddenly launched an even more violent attack. He waved his dark magic wand, and waves of Dark Power struck like a storm, catching Hode and the others off guard...
Chapter 372: The Embodiment of Sincere Emotion
Hode's heart tightened; he felt that this Dark Power was even more turbulent than before, as if it carried an aura of destruction. He knew deeply that he could no longer hold anything back; he had to give it his all.
He quickly adjusted his breathing, cast aside the distracting thoughts in his mind, and focused entirely on feeling the power surging within him. That new power, born from his intimate contact with Wanda and Diana, now seemed to have been activated, boiling within him, eager to be released.
Wanda and Diana also sensed Hode's determination; they both fused their powers with Hode's, and the trio's power reached an unprecedented height at this moment. Hodewaved his hands, and a brilliant radiance slashed through the sky like lightning, heading straight towards the Lord of Darkness.
Seeing this, the Lord of Darkness curled his lips into a sneer. He waved his dark magic wand, easily neutralizing the attack from Hode and the others. However, he did not notice that although their attack had been neutralized, the power was quietly eroding his dark magic wand, causing the dark aura on the surface of the wand to become somewhat chaotic.
"Hmph, is that all you've got?" the Lord of Darknessmocked, preparing to launch a more violent attack to defeat Hode and the others in one fell swoop.
However, just then, Hode suddenly felt an unprecedented power surging within him. This power was warm and strong, as if it were the embodiment of the deep bond between him, Wanda, and Diana, granting him endless strength and courage.
He opened his eyes suddenly, his eyes flashing with a firm radiance. He took a deep breath and waved his arm again, and a more brilliant light shot from his hand, heading straight towards the Lord of Darkness.
This light was completely different from before; it carried an aura that purified everything, as if it could pierce through the darkness and reach the heart of the Lord of Darkness. Seeing this, the Lord of Darkness was startled, feeling that this power posed an unprecedented threat to him.
He hurriedly waved his dark magic wand, attempting to block Hode's attack. However, this light was unusually tenacious; it easily pierced through the defense of the dark magic wand and headed straight towards the Lord of Darkness.
The Lord of Darkness felt a chill; he felt that this power was already close at hand and could swallow him completely at any moment. He hurriedly mobilized all his Dark Power, attempting to resist the invasion of this light.
However, just then, Wanda and Diana also launched their attacks. Wanda waved her Chaos Magic, forming a brilliant magic circle that rushed towards the Lord of Darkness. Diana brandished her Lasso of Truth, accurately binding the body of the Lord of Darkness, rendering him unable to move.
Under the combined efforts of the three superheroes, the Lord of Darkness was finally unable to resist. He was completely swallowed by that brilliant light, turning into wisps of black smoke that dissipated into the air. And that surging Dark Power, under the attacks of Hode and the others, gradually weakened and finally dissipated completely.
Seeing this, the heroes cheered. They knew that this difficult battle had finally been won, and they had successfully protected the World.
Hode looked at Wanda and Diana, his heart filled with gratitude. He knew that without their help and support, he would never have been able to defeat this powerful force. He held their hands tightly, his eyes flashing with gratitude.
"Thank you. If it weren't for you, I would never have been able to make it this far," Hode said affectionately.
Wanda and Diana smiled slightly; they understood Hode's feelings. They squeezed Hode's hand back tightly, their eyes flashing with determination.
"We are a team. No matter what difficulties we encounter, we will face them together and overcome them together," Wanda said firmly.
Diana also nodded: "Yes, Hode, we will always stand by your side, supporting you and encouraging you."
Hode felt a warmth in his heart, and he felt an unprecedented power surging within him. He knew that this power came from the deep bond between him, Wanda, and Diana; it was the embodiment of the sincere emotion between them.
Just then, a melodious sound of music suddenly came from the sky. Everyone looked up to see a brilliant rainbow spanning across the horizon, as if it were a reward and blessing from the heavens.
"It seems we really did it," Hode said with a smile, his eyes flashing with a happy radiance.
However, right amidst this jubilation, Hode suddenly felt a familiar yet strange power surging in the distance. He was startled and hurriedly turned his head to look, only to see a mysterious figure slowly walking towards them from afar.
The figure was draped in a black robe, with their face hidden beneath a hood, exuding a mysterious and powerful aura. Hode felt a chill in his heart; he sensed an inexplicable connection between this aura and a certain power within him.
"Who are you?" Hode asked vigilantly, holding Wanda and Diana's hands tightly, fearing they might come to any harm.
The Black-robed figure smiled slightly and slowly raised his head, revealing a handsome and mysterious face. His eyes flashed with a deep radiance, as if he could see through all falsehoods.
"Who I am is not important; what is important is that I have sensed the power within you," the Black-robed figure said softly. His voice was like the sound of nature, making Hodefeel an inexplicable shock.
Hode was startled; he had not expected the Black-robed figure to be able to see through the power within him. He stared fixedly at the Black-robed figure, trying to find answers in his eyes.
However, the Black-robed figure just smiled slightly and slowly extended his hand, with a mysterious and powerful force surging in his palm. That power echoed with the power inside Hode, as if there were some special connection.
"The power within you is very strong, but it is also very dangerous," the Black-robed figure said softly, his eyes flashing with a warning light. "If you cannot control this power, it will swallow everything you are."
Hode felt a chill; he knew deeply that the Black-robed figure was not exaggerating. The power within him was indeed strong and dangerous, and if he could not control it, the consequences would be unimaginable.
He clenched his fists tightly, his eyes flashing with a firm radiance: "I know the danger of this power, but I will not give up easily. I will strive to control this power and use it to protect this World."
Hearing this, a flash of appreciative light crossed the Black-robed figure's eyes. He nodded slightly, as if expressing approval of Hode's determination.
"Very good. You have this determination and courage; I believe you can do it," the Black-robed figure said softly. He turned around slowly, preparing to leave. "Remember, no matter what difficulties you encounter, do not give up. Your power will be your most powerful weapon."
After saying this, the Black-robed figure turned into a black shadow and instantly disappeared into the horizon. Hodewatched his retreating figure, his heart filled with doubt and anticipation. He did not know who the Black-robed figure really was, but he knew that the appearance of the Black-robed figure must have some special significance.
He took a deep breath and turned to look at Wanda and Diana. They were smiling as they looked at him, their eyes flashing with encouragement and support.
"No matter what difficulties we encounter in the future, we will face them together," Wanda said firmly.
Diana also nodded: "Yes, Hode, we will always stand by your side and fight alongside you."
Hode felt a warmth in his heart, and he felt an unprecedented power surging within him. He knew that this power came from the deep bond between him, Wanda, and Diana; it was the embodiment of the sincere emotion between them.
Chapter 307
Just then, a sharp alarm suddenly rang out from the sky. Everyone looked up to see a plume of black smoke rapidly spreading in the distance, seemingly carrying an aura of absolute destruction...
Chapter 373: Why Side with the Dark Power?
Hode's heart tightened once again, the familiar dark aura making him clench his fists involuntarily. He turned to look at Wanda and Diana, both of whom had eyes filled with equal parts vigilance and determination.
"It seems our battle isn't over yet," Hode said in a low voice, a tone of unquestionable resolve in his words.
Wanda nodded, her Chaos Magic already quietly gathering in her hands, ready to face the impending crisis at any moment. "No matter who the enemy is, we will not back down."
Diana also swung her Lasso of Truth, the glowing lasso shimmering with a mysterious light as if it could bind all evil. "We are a team. We face it together, and we conquer it together."
As the black smoke drew closer, an oppressive aura filled the air, weighing down on everyone present with unprecedented pressure. Hode took a deep breath, trying to calm his inner turmoil and channel this pressure into motivation for the battle.
Within the black smoke, figures gradually began to materialize. They were the remnant forces of the Lord of Darkness, clearly unwilling to be wiped out just like that, attempting one final counterattack.
Looking at these enemies, a cold glint flashed in Hode's eyes. He knew this battle would be another test of their team's synergy and strength.
"Wanda, Diana, let's go!" Hode shouted, charging forward first. Within his body, the new power he had obtained from his intimate contact with Wanda and Diana surged. Fully unleashed at this moment, it made him feel as if he had transformed into a bolt of lightning, rushing straight at the enemy.
Wanda and Diana followed close behind, their powers resonating with Hode's to form an unstoppable torrent. Wanda waved her Chaos Magic, sending brilliant beams of light slicing through the sky to strike enemy after enemy with precision. Meanwhile, Diana swung her Lasso of Truth, which darted through the enemies like a nimble serpent, binding them one by one.
However, these enemies were clearly no pushovers. Relying on the remnant power of the Lord of Darkness, they resisted Hode and the others' attacks with desperate struggle. For a time, the battlefield was filled with thick smoke and deafening battle cries.
During the battle, Hode constantly felt the surge of power within him. He discovered that as his intimacy with Wandaand Diana grew, the abilities he gained were also steadily strengthening. This enhancement was reflected not just in raw power, but also in his control and application of it.
With a violent swing of his arm, a brilliant beam of light shot from his hand, blasting an enemy away. At the same time, his figure blurred, and he reappeared behind another enemy, kicking them away.
Wanda and Diana also played to their respective strengths, cooperating with Hode so seamlessly that they seemed like a single entity. Wanda used her Chaos Magic to create trap after trap, catching the enemies off guard. Diana used her Lasso of Truth to restrict the enemies' movements, creating opportunities for Hode to strike.
However, just when they thought victory was in sight, an even more powerful Dark Power suddenly erupted from the black smoke. This force was stronger than any enemy they had faced before, rushing toward Hode and the others like an unstoppable torrent.
Hode was startled, feeling that this power posed an unprecedented threat to him. He hastily mobilized all his power in an attempt to resist the invasion of this Dark Power.
However, this Dark Power was exceptionally relentless. It easily penetrated Hode's defenses and surged directly toward his body. Hode felt a massive force impact him, nearly knocking him off his feet.
Seeing this, Wanda and Diana rushed over to support him. Wanda unleashed her Chaos Magic to form a shield, blocking the Dark Power from encroaching further. Dianaswung her Lasso of Truth, accurately binding the source of the Dark Power and preventing it from continuing its rampage.
Hode took the opportunity to stand back up. Taking a deep breath, he worked to adjust his state. He knew this Dark Power was exceptionally formidable; if they couldn't destroy it completely, the consequences would be unimaginable.
He clenched his fists tightly, a resolute light shining in his eyes. He knew very well that he could no longer hold anything back; he had to go all out.
Charging forward, he punched the source of the Dark Power. At the same time, the power within him was fully unleashed, forming a powerful energy wave that surged straight toward the Dark Power.
Wanda and Diana also exerted their strength, coordinating with Hode to surround the Dark Power. Under the joint efforts of the three superheroes, the Dark Power gradually weakened and finally dissipated completely.
However, just when they thought the danger had passed, a dark shadow suddenly darted out of the black smoke, heading straight for Hode. This shadow moved incredibly fast, like a bolt of lightning, giving Hode no time to react.
Wanda and Diana rushed to assist when they saw this. However, they found that they couldn't keep up with the dark shadow's speed at all.
Hode only felt himself get struck by a massive force, and his body was sent flying. He crashed heavily onto the ground, a wave of sharp pain washing over him. He struggled to stand up, but found that his body seemed to be bound by an invisible force, rendering him completely unable to move.
After striking Hode, the dark shadow didn't stop, but continued to flee into the distance. Wanda and Dianahastily gave chase, but they found that they simply couldn't catch up with it.
Lying on the ground, Hode's eyes flashed with a look of unwillingness. He knew he couldn't just give up like this; he had to stand up and keep fighting.
Grit-teeth, he struggled to mobilize the power within him. The new power generated from his intimate contact with Wanda and Diana seemed to be activated at this moment, boiling inside his body.
With a sudden burst of effort, he finally broke free from the invisible restraint. He stood up and took a deep breath, a resolute light shining in his eyes.
"Wanda, Diana, after him!" Hode shouted, charging forward first. His heart was filled with determination and courage; he knew that no matter what difficulties he encountered, he would not give up easily.
Wanda and Diana followed close behind, their eyes also shining with determination. They knew this battle wasn't over yet, and they had to keep fighting until the Dark Power was completely destroyed.
The three of them gave chase all the way, finally catching up to the dark shadow. However, when they clearly saw the dark shadow's true face, they were all stunned.
The dark shadow turned out to be a Mysterious Figure they had never seen before. Clad in a black robe with his face hidden beneath a hood, he exuded a mysterious and powerful aura. In his hand, he held a dagger that gleamed with a cold light, staring at them coldly.
"Who are you? Why are you pursuing me?" the Mysterious Figure asked coldly, his voice carrying an unquestionable authority.
Hode stared intently at the Mysterious Figure, his heart filled with vigilance and confusion. He didn't know who this person was, but he knew he must have some connection to that Dark Power.
"We are superheroes, and we are hunting down that Dark Power," Hode said in a low voice, his tone filled with firmness and courage. "Who on earth are you? Why are you siding with the Dark Power?"
Hearing this, a cold glint flashed in the Mysterious Figure's eyes. He looked coldly at Hode and the others, as if looking at a group of ants.
"Hmph, superheroes? Who do you think you are? You don't understand the true secrets of this power at all," the Mysterious Figure said coldly. He swung his dagger, and a flash of cold light shot straight toward Hode.
Hode was startled and quickly dodged to the side. However, the cold light was exceptionally cunning, actually curving in mid-air to continue pursuing him.
Seeing this, Wanda and Diana rushed over to support him. Wanda waved her Chaos Magic to form a shield, blocking the cold light's attack. Diana swung her Lasso of Truth, accurately binding the Mysterious Figure's body to prevent him from attacking further.
However, just when they thought they had controlled the situation, the Mysterious Figure suddenly burst into laughter. His laughter carried a strange and mad quality, sending an unprecedented chill down everyone's spine.
"You think you can trap me like this? How naive!" the Mysterious Figure laughed loudly. His body suddenly turned into a plume of black smoke, easily slipping free from the Lasso of Truth.
705u.com-53 Reading Club At the same time, an even more powerful Dark Power erupted from his body, rushing straight toward Hode and the others. This force was stronger than any enemy they had faced before, like an unstoppable torrent seeking to completely swallow them up.
Hode was startled, knowing he had to find a way to deal with this Dark Power quickly. However, just then, a thought flashed through his mind—perhaps he could try to further increase his intimacy with Wanda and Diana to obtain even greater power to counter this Dark Power.
He turned to look at Wanda and Diana, both of whose eyes were also filled with determination and courage. They understood Hode's thought and were willing to face this challenge with him.
Just then, the Dark Power closed in on them. Hode took a deep breath, tightly gripping Wanda and Diana's hands, a look of absolute determination flashing in his eyes.
"No matter what difficulties we encounter in the future, we will face them together!" Hode shouted, his voice ringing with unquestionable resolve. "Now, let us face this challenge together!"
With that, the three of them embraced tightly, their power reaching unprecedented heights at this moment. A powerful and mysterious force erupted from their bodies, rushing straight toward that Dark Power...
Chapter 374: Her Voice Was Firm and Powerful
The power bursting from the closely connected bodies of Hode, Wanda, and Diana was like the Chaos Magic at the dawn of the Universe—vast, boundless, and full of unpredictable variables. This power converged in the air into a brilliant beam of light, striking the incoming Dark Power. The collision exploded with a deafening roar, as if the entire World were trembling at that moment.
For the first time, a look of shock appeared on the mysterious Black-robed figure's face. He had clearly not expected these three 'ants' to unleash such astonishing energy. Although the Dark Power under his control was strong, under this strike, it actually showed signs of being suppressed, the black smoke churning as if struggling in pain.
Hode tightly held Wanda and Diana's hands. He could feel two warm and firm forces transmitting into his body through their palms, intertwining and merging with his own power to form a brand-new, unprecedentedly powerful energy. This energy not only enhanced their attack power, but also brought their minds into an unprecedented harmony, as if the three of them had merged into one to face the crisis before them together.
"We... can do this!" Hode grit his teeth, an unprecedentedly firm light shining in his eyes. He knew very well that at this moment, they were not just fighting an unknown enemy, but also challenging the limits of their own power, exploring the deepest realms that intimacy and trust could reach.
Sensing Hode's determination, Wanda's Chaos Magicboiled over as well. The already brilliant magical glow grew even more dazzling, like the brightest star in the night sky, illuminating the entire battlefield. Her heart was filled with trust in Hode, a trust that allowed her to unleash her power without reservation, constructing an indestructible line of defense together with Hode and Diana.
Diana swung her Lasso of Truth. Under her control, the lasso seemed to come alive, nimbly weaving through the black smoke. With every swing, it precisely bound a portion of the Dark Power, preventing it from escaping. Her eyes were filled with a warrior's resilience and a goddess's compassion. She knew that true strength came not only from muscle and magic, but also from inner justice and selfless devotion to one's companions.
Seeing this, a cold smile played at the corner of the Black-robed figure's mouth, but a trace of panic flashed in his eyes. With a wave of his hands, the Dark Power suddenly intensified, like an enraged beast, madly lunging back at the trio. However, they were no longer isolated individuals, but warriors bound by deep emotional ties, a bond that allowed them to stand firm in the face of any adversity.
An unprecedented surge of pride welled up in Hode's heart. He let out a loud shout, and the power inside him seemed to answer his call, exploding instantly. Letting go of Wanda and Diana's hands, his body transformed into a bolt of lightning as he charged straight into the core of the Dark Power. His fists carried the momentum of a thousand thunderbolts, each strike landing precisely on the Dark Power's weak points, causing the black smoke to scatter amidst continuous wails.
Wanda and Diana followed close behind. Wanda used her Chaos Magic to weave a giant net, capturing the scattered Dark Power one by one, while Diana used her Lasso of Truth to bind the dark shadows trying to escape, ensuring they could no longer make trouble. The three of them cooperated seamlessly, as if performing a beautifully choreographed dance, every movement filled with power and grace.
AI Model: gemini-3.1-flash-lite
The Black-robed figure saw this, and a ruthless glint flashed in his eyes; he decided to take action personally to end this battle.
He flashed, transforming into a trail of black smoke, and lunged straight at Hode.
Hode sensed the danger, nimbly sidestepped, and simultaneously extended his palm; a suction force surged from his palm, forcibly dragging the Black-robed figure's form out of the smoke and revealing him before everyone.
"Want to run? Not so easy!" Hode cold shouted, his eyes flashing with a resolute light.
He knew that the outcome of this moment would determine everything.
The Black-robed figure steadied his form, his eyes beneath the black robe flashing with cold, sinister light; the dagger in his hand swung again, and this time, it was wrapped in pitch-black magic, as if it could devour all light.
Hode dared not be careless; he mobilized all his power, preparing to meet this fatal blow.
Just at this critical moment, Wanda and Diana acted simultaneously.
Wanda waved the magic in her hand, and a brilliant barrier instantly appeared before Hode, blocking the path of the dagger; meanwhile, Diana seized the opportunity to swing the Lasso of Truth, accurately wrapping it around the Black-robed figure's wrist, rendering him unable to move an inch.
The Black-robed figure struggled in vain, and for the first time, a look of terror appeared in his eyes.
He never expected that he would actually fall into the hands of these three seemingly young superheroes from the "705u.com-53 Reading Club".
"Who exactly are you? Why do you possess such power?" the Black-robed figure asked, panting; his voice had lost its previous majesty, replaced by unwillingness and fear.
Hode stepped forward slowly, his gaze cold and firm: "Who we are is not important; what is important is that we represent justice, representing those innocent people who have suffered because of you. Your era should end."
As he spoke, Hode raised his right hand, and an unprecedentedly powerful energy gathered in his palm.
This energy was the crystallization of the deep bond between him, Wanda, and Diana, and the embodiment of their shared belief.
With a roar from Hode, this energy transformed into a dazzling light, striking the Black-robed figure directly.
The Black-robed figure let out a shrill scream within the light, his body gradually swallowed by the radiance, and finally, he vanished into nothingness.
With his disappearance, the dark aura that had shrouded the battlefield also dissipated, and the sky became bright once again.
The battle was over, but there was not a trace of relief on the faces of Hode, Wanda, and Diana.
They knew this was only a small part of a long battle, and more challenges awaited them in the future.
"We... did well," Wanda said softly, her eyes flashing with a gentle light as she looked at Hode and Diana, her heart filled with gratitude.
Diana nodded, her voice firm and powerful: "Yes, we are a team; no matter what we face, as long as we are together, nothing is impossible."
Hode took a deep breath, his heart filled with anticipation and determination for the future.
He knew that the close cooperation with Wanda, Diana, and more companions not only allowed him to gain powerful strength, but more importantly, it allowed him to find his own home, a home where they could face all difficulties and challenges together.
Just as the three were preparing to return to the Base to organize their thoughts and prepare for the next battle, a sudden communication request interrupted their thoughts.
It was Nick Fury from the Avengers; his voice was urgent and serious: "Hode, Wanda, Diana, we have encountered an emergency and need your help. The World is facing a crisis again; this time, we may need to gather all the power we can."
Hode's heart tightened abruptly; he looked at Wanda and Diana, whose eyes were also filled with seriousness and determination.
They knew that a new battle was imminent, and this time, they would no longer be fighting alone, but fighting side-by-side with the Avengers, the Justice League, and more heroes to protect the peace and tranquility of this Worldtogether.
"We are ready," Hode said firmly, his voice filled with unquestionable determination.
He knew that no matter what they would encounter in the future, as long as they were united in heart, there would be no difficulty they could not overcome.
The three looked at each other and smiled, their eyes flashing with infinite longing and confidence for the future.
Afterward, they transformed into three rays of light, shooting straight into the sky, heading toward the new battlefield.
As for what kind of fierce battle awaited them, and how they would write their own legendary chapter, everything remained an unknown...
Chapter 375: Completely Devouring the Loki Main Body
Hode, Wanda, and Diana transformed into light, passing through the clouds, heading straight for the Avengers' emergency gathering point.
The air was filled with a tense and solemn atmosphere; they knew this summons was by no means ordinary.
When they arrived, they discovered that the top floor of the Avengers Tower had been turned into a temporary command center; various heroes stood or sat, their faces grim, discussing the upcoming crisis.
Nick Fury stood before a huge holographic screen, his fingers swiping across a virtual map, marking one crisis point after another.
"Hode, Wanda, Diana, you have come just in time." Nick Fury turned to look at them, a hint of relief flashing in his eyes, "This situation is more complex than ever before. An ancient evil force is reviving; its power spans space and time, attempting to drag our World into eternal darkness."
Hode stepped forward, his gaze firm: "Tell us the specific situation; we need to know what we are facing."
Nick Fury nodded, and the holographic screen immediately displayed segments of ancient runes and eerie images.
"This is a force of Loki from the ancient times; they were once sealed in the depths of multi-dimensional space, but for some reason, the seal now has cracks. These Lokipossess the ability to manipulate time, space, and even minds; once they fully awaken, the consequences will be unimaginable."
Wanda frowned, her Chaos Magic faintly sensing the fluctuations of this evil power: "I can feel their existence; their power... is very ancient, and also very powerful."
Diana gripped the Lasso of Truth tightly, her eyes flashing with the light of battle: "No matter how powerful they are, we cannot sit idly by. Justice will always triumph over evil."
At this moment, a familiar voice came from the doorway: "It seems we have no way back." Wonder Woman CarolDanvers, wearing a red battle suit, walked into the room; her eyes were also filled with determination.
Hode's heart stirred; he felt that Carol's appearance brought a new fluctuation of power.
Since fighting side-by-side with Carol last time, a special connection had been established between them; although it had not developed to the level of romance, Hode could feel that Carol's presence caused his power to faintly increase.
"Carol, you have come just in time," Hode greeted with a smile, "It seems we will be teaming up again this time."
Carol nodded, her gaze sweeping over Hode, Wanda, and Diana; a sense of inexplicable trust surged in her heart: "That's right, we are a team; no matter what we face, we must fight together."
Nick Fury interrupted their conversation: "Alright, time is tight; we must formulate a battle plan. According to intelligence, the Loki seal points are distributed all over the World; we need to act separately and seal them simultaneously to prevent the complete awakening of the Loki."
After some discussion, the heroes were divided into several groups; Hode, Wanda, Diana, and Carol formed a powerful four-person squad, responsible for the most dangerous seal point—located beneath the ancient glaciers of the North Pole.
The four boarded the Avengers' invisible jet and quickly arrived over the North Pole.
Through the porthole, they could see wisps of eerie black smoke emanating from the thick ice layer below; that was a sign of the Loki power leaking out.
"Are you ready?" Hode looked at Wanda, Diana, and Carol, his voice filled with encouragement.
The three nodded, their eyes flashing with firm light. They knew that the outcome of this moment would determine the fate of the World.
The jet landed on the edge of the glacier, and the four quickly disembarked, heading toward the seal point.
As they went deeper, the surrounding temperature became lower and lower, and the concentration of black smoke became higher and higher, as if countless eyes were peeking at them from the darkness.
"Be careful; this black smoke may carry the curse of the Loki," Diana warned, her Lasso of Truth waving in her hand, ready to deal with unexpected situations at any time.
Hode walked at the very front, a brand-new energy mixed with the power of Wanda, Diana, and Carol surging within his body. This energy made him feel unprecedentedly powerful and confident.
Suddenly, a powerful force surged from beneath the ice, sending the four of them stumbling backward. A huge black shadow slowly rose from the ice cave; it was an avatar of the Loki, its form massive and ferocious, its eyes flashing with evil light.
"Tiny ants, how dare you challenge my authority!" the Lokiavatar roared, waving the huge scythe in its hand and lunging at the four.
Hode was fearless; he shouted loudly, and the power within him exploded instantly. He rushed toward the Lokiavatar, his fist carrying the momentum of thunder, colliding with the scythe and bursting out with dazzling sparks.
Wanda followed closely behind; her Chaos Magictransformed into rays of brilliant light, wrapping around the Loki avatar, attempting to bind its movements.
Diana waved the Lasso of Truth, accurately lassoing the neck of the Loki avatar, and with a strong pull, actually caused the massive body to stagger.
Carol was not to be outdone; she transformed into a ray of light, shooting straight for the head of the Loki avatar, swinging her fist and whipping up a gust of wind, striking the Loki avatar and forcing it to retreat repeatedly.
The four coordinated perfectly, their offensive like a tide, and the Loki avatar gradually could not match them. Its body began to tremble, black smoke spilling out, as if it would collapse at any moment.
"Now is the time, seal it!" Hode shouted, a powerful energy gathering in his palm, preparing to re-seal the Loki avatar.
Wanda, Diana, and Carol acted simultaneously, their powers converging in Hode's palm, forming a brilliant light of sealing.
Hode shouted loudly and shot the light toward the Lokiavatar; the light instantly enveloped it, and the Loki avatar let out a shrill scream, its body gradually shrinking, eventually turning into a wisp of black smoke and dissipating into the air.
The four looked at each other and smiled; they knew this was just the beginning. There were more Loki avatars waiting for them to seal, and every battle would make the bond between them even deeper.

As they continued deeper into the glacier, one Loki avatar after another was sealed in succession. With every battle, Hode could feel that the connection between himself and Wanda, Diana, and Carol was becoming tighter, and their power was also constantly increasing.
Finally, they arrived at the last seal point; this was the location of the Loki main body. An unprecedentedly powerful evil aura rushed toward them, making the four feel unprecedented pressure.
"This is the final decisive battle," Hode took a deep breath, his eyes flashing with a resolute light.
Wanda, Diana, and Carol nodded; they knew that the outcome of this moment would determine everything.
The four joined hands and advanced, launching the final charge toward the Loki main body. Their powers intertwined in the air into a brilliant light, striking the Lokimain body directly.
The Loki main body roared in counterattack; its power was equally powerful and evil. For a moment, light and darkness intertwined, and the entire World seemed to be shaken by this fierce battle.
...
Hode felt that the mental link between himself, Wanda, Diana, and Carol had reached an unprecedented level of closeness. Their powers merged and enhanced each other, forming a powerful energy sufficient to shake the heaven and earth.
Just at this critical moment, Hode shouted loudly, gathering all the power within his body into his palm, and then struck fiercely toward the Loki main body. The light exploded instantly, completely devouring the Loki main body.
The Loki main body let out a shrill scream, its body gradually collapsing within the light, and finally vanished into nothingness. With its disappearance, the evil aura that had shrouded the North Pole also dissipated.
The four looked at each other and smiled; they knew that this battle was finally over. But they also knew that this was only a small part of a long battle, and more challenges awaited them in the future.
Just as they were preparing to return to the Base, a sudden voice rang in their ears: "Hode, Wanda, Diana, Carol, you did well. But the battle is not over yet; the real crisis has only just begun..."
The four were startled; they turned to look, but only saw a vast snowfield; the voice seemed to come from the sky, and yet also from the bottom of their hearts.
"What does this mean?" Hode frowned, his heart filled with doubt.
