"I…"
The Thorned Evil God was utterly stunned. He had expected the pursuer of the wounded Evil God of Desolation to arrive eventually, but not that there would be two of them. And to make matters worse, they didn’t bother with words—both attacked him without hesitation.
Caught off guard, the Thorned Evil God reacted quickly. Black mist churned around him as seventeen thorn-covered tendrils lashed out to intercept the incoming strikes.
Splat!

With a soft “whoosh,” Robert appeared before Galata and the Silver Surfer just as Galata was happily indulging in her meal. Her eyes lit up upon seeing him. Being the daughter of Galactus and having the long lifespan of a cosmic deity, Galata still maintained the youthful appearance she had when Robert first met her.
“Are you here to join us for a meal?” Galata asked, smiling warmly.
“Uh…” Robert raised an eyebrow at the invitation, then smiled. “Sure, why not? It...

After handling matters at Jinshu, Chen Qing headed to the Rose Garden Villa area in the CP District.
Jill Peckett and Zhao Annie were already waiting there. The afternoon was dedicated to listening to the design company present the latest planning proposal for the Rose Garden Villa area.
Last year, in order to secure the Rose Garden project in the CP District, the Westeros system had ultimately paid only 460 million RMB after debt restructuring. Given the current land price...

"He's Robert?!" The first exclamation echoed through the chamber, followed by a wave of stunned murmurs among the captured Super-Skrulls. Their faces showed disbelief as they stared at Robert.
Much like Carol had shared tales of Earth with her allies, she had also spoken to the Skrulls about the planet. In those stories, however, Robert's strength was not portrayed as particularly formidable. Moreover, some Super-Skrulls who had accessed Carol's memories believed Robert to be weaker tha...

From a height perspective, Queen Ariel of the Wood Elves was a giant. She was even taller than two Ryans combined. As a demigod, Ariel was an incarnation of the Elf Mother Goddess Isha, but one couldn’t simply equate an incarnation with the deity itself. There was an indescribable connection between them. According to the Lady of the Lake and Olica, there could be many incarnations (provided they were carefully prepared), and only if a deity was possessing an incarnation and was killed by m...

In the void, grotesque and mangled corpses drifted in silence. They floated aimlessly, some even clustering together to form small floating islands of death.
The Thorned Evil God surveyed the battlefield. Nearly a third of his retinue of followers had been decimated. Though he maintained a composed exterior, the loss stung. Cultivating such an army wasn’t easy.
Still, he consoled himself. Holding the Evil God of Desolation at bay had been worth it. Yet, the issue was that the la...

The void, vast and boundless, was mostly silent and dark. Only a rare few entities roamed freely within it—beings of immense power, residing at the pinnacle of their worlds, or at least near the top.
As a result, the void was often empty and desolate. Anyone entering it with hope or curiosity would soon be met with disappointment and solitude. Most legendary beings wandering the void found nothing, even after prolonged movement through its endless expanse.
But sometimes, there w...

The day after the sixth child of the Westeros family was born, Janet also arrived in Boston. Having had prior interactions, Ulyana Melekhova was visibly nervous in front of Janet.
Ulyana had long realized that she could somewhat hold her own in front of Simon Westeros, leveraging her beauty and intelligence as a woman. However, when it came to Janet Westeros, although she seemed more approachable on the surface, Ulyana instinctively knew that crossing certain boundaries with this...

Dwarves have a very low acceptance rate for new things—extremely low, as mentioned before.
It’s worth noting that other dwarf kingdoms have their own reasons for rejecting the mule-and-horse army concept. For thousands of years, dwarves have been raising a type of livestock called "ponies" to assist with transportation.
What is a pony?
A pony refers to a "dwarf horse," a small breed of horse typically under 100 centimeters in height. They are hardy, resistant to thirst a...

Night fell, and the Everqueen and her entourage settled into the large noble estate "Cheong Wa Dae" arranged by Ryan outside the city.
Their guide was the High Elf Talleyrand, a limping, hobbling figure who earned a look of disdain from the proud Dragon Prince Torondil. The High Elves all wondered why they were being led by a cripple.
Hadn’t the Knight Kingdom just appointed ten marshals? Why not send one or two of them? The Old World was unsafe at night, and having a marshal gu...

After Chen Qing finished speaking, the expressions in the conference room varied. At first, everyone seemed pleased. However, as they were all intelligent individuals, they quickly sensed something amiss upon further reflection.
Even if Wu Shanlin and the others were unaware of Hollywood’s golden rule of "never invest your own money in movies," this proposal, upon closer examination, seemed even more problematic than using one’s own funds.

Elsewhere, Doom had no idea that Mephisto had so easily located his mother. For a demon adept at manipulating souls and minds, such a feat was hardly difficult. After all, the bond of kinship wasn’t confined to the physical realm; it extended to the soul itself.
Despite the Ancient One’s efforts to uncover and nullify the traps Mephisto embedded in their contract, the moment Doom signed it, his soul’s aura was etched onto it. Using this, Mephisto easily traced the unique connectio...

The Imperium of Man, the 42nd Millennium, the home of the Blood Angels, Baal.
The entire planet was burning.
The Tyranid fleet, Leviathan, was besieging this ancient yet barren world. This was not a place that should have interested the Tyranid swarm. The planet was covered in deserts, with scarce resources, and perpetually shrouded in red mist. No place was habitable.
Yet, something was clearly attracting the Tyranids. The Hive Mind was desperate to devour this planet. An e...

The Evil God of Desolation did not respond to Muria's taunts. Once it was clear they were enemies, there was no point in continuing the exchange. Instead, the Evil God contemplated how to defeat him… or rather, how to stall him for a while before finding an opportunity to retreat.
Although the animosity between them was confirmed, the Evil God of Desolation had no intention of fighting Muria to the death. After all, even a victory would bring no benefits, and a loss would be a tremend...

"I understand. I'll try it immediately," Doom said sincerely, bowing deeply to the Ancient One. He knew that if not for her keen perception, he might never have realized he was being manipulated.

Muria was not in a rush. With eternal life came endless possibilities. While he currently lacked the power to kill the Evil God, he was certain that one day he would possess such strength.
Moreover, his bold idea wasn’t entirely impossible. If Muria could inflict three devastating strikes like his earlier world-smashing attack, the odds of killing the Evil God on the spot would increase significantly. He doubted the Evil God had the resources to revive himself from such catastrophic d...

Even setting aside Kara, the time Clark and Robert spent with the Kent couple before Clark’s deep sleep was less than the time Lana Lang had spent with them. How could Martha not feel a stronger fondness for Lana? Especially since Clark had been gone for almost three years, Martha had constantly worried whether he would survive and return. If nothing had happened to Clark, Martha might have prioritized Lana over her son in her heart.

There would be others in Asia to assist him.

Just one privileged scion like Muria was already too much for the Evil God of Desolation to handle. Now, another had appeared. While this newcomer clearly had a power and form entirely distinct from Muria’s, this only deepened the Evil God’s unease.
The Evil God understood the principle of “birds of a feather flock together.” Someone who could associate with a Titan-Dragon hybrid like Muria was likely another being with a similarly powerful background. The differing power attrib...

Faced with the impact of an entire world, the Desolate Evil God cowered. Every world is a perfectly constructed entity of rules. Being hit by a world is not just about enduring a massive physical attack.
Although the Desolate Evil God desperately wanted to dodge, he ultimately couldn’t. When the world was held in Muria’s hand, it appeared small, but once thrown, it rapidly expanded to a size that made evasion impossible.
Moreover, after the world was thrown, the surroundin...

At the level of an epic, there is essentially nothing left to rely on. The greatest reliance of an epic is themselves. However, there are always a few exceptions.
Even after stepping into the realm of epics, a domain that all beings look up to, some still have elders of their race who are stronger than them as their backing. For most evil gods, these beings are not to be trifled with.
Evil gods are essentially loners. They have no stronger beings behind them, and some are even...
