Chapter 157: Chapter 157
"Hello~ Apocalypse, right?"
Kurohane's entrance startled Apocalypse. As an ancient Mutant, he had never seen such a stylish entrance, and he could feel... Kurohane wasn't a Mutant at all! With four light wings appearing behind him, Kurohane smiled at the slightly dumbfounded Apocalypse and said, "False god, are you ready to face judgment?"
"How dare you call me a false god?!!!" Apocalypse's voice thundered, full of wrath.
With just a simple sentence, Kurohane enraged Apocalypse! In the era he lived in, he almost dominated all humans with his powerful Mutant abilities. The abilities he casually displayed caused people to panic, prostrate themselves at his feet, and call him a god! But now, someone with light wings on his back appeared and called him a false god!
Apocalypse gave up on defeating Professor X in the mental world, holding off the steel dragons unleashed by Magneto and two energy beams, walking step by step toward Kurohane! If anyone doubted his identity as a god, he would use his power to show them that he, Apocalypse, was the only true god on this Earth!
Kurohane's wings flapped violently, creating distance between him and Apocalypse as he flew. A longsword made entirely of Holy Energy appeared in his right hand. After raising it above his head, he suddenly slashed down at Apocalypse below him, transforming into a thick beam of pure white light!
[Flash of Light of Vishanti]!!!
There were many spells in the Book of Vishanti, but most of them were for life support and defense. For example, conjuring various wines and drinks out of thin air, the Seraphim Shield, and the Ancient Wall of Hoggoth. There were very few offensive spells, and Vishanti's Flash of Light was a more direct offensive spell. The targets that could be attacked were mostly beings from the Dark Dimension or the Hell Dimension. Its main power was to create a channel connected to the Holy Dimension, guiding the energy within the Holy Dimension to impact the enemy.
Kurohane saw the flaw in Apocalypse's defensive method at a glance. The biggest flaw was that it continuously consumed a large amount of mental power! Being able to defend against so many powerful attacks simultaneously would only consume more! This was only possible for a pervert like Apocalypse who had immense mental power. If it were the Professor, he would have collapsed already! And there were only two ways to break this shield. One, use an attack that exceeded the defensive power of this shield; Two, exhaust Apocalypse's mental power until he could no longer maintain this shield!
Kurohane chose the second option. After all, he felt no pain in consuming the Holy Dimension's energy. The mental power consumed by connecting to the Holy Dimension wasn't much because of the Holy Scar on the back of his hand. In fact, when he connected with the Holy Dimension, his mental power and physical constitution would continuously increase. As long as Kurohane was willing, he could exhaust Apocalypse until he became a dried corpse!
With Kurohane's help, the pressure on Magneto and the two laser brothers significantly decreased. The pure Holy Energy beam suppressed Apocalypse, preventing him from lifting his head. The diameter of the spherical shield became smaller and smaller. It wasn't until Cyclops's eye power was exhausted and Havok's clothes were burned to shreds, that Apocalypse barely maintained balance with Kurohane and Magneto after losing two continuous output points.
"This isn't your own power. You are the true false god! False angel!" Apocalypse stretched out his hand and forcibly pushed away the protective shield. His eyes gradually whitened. He was preparing to use another Mutant ability, using quicksand to grab Kurohane, who was flying in the sky! Rare yellow quicksand appeared, transforming into a gigantic hand that suddenly reached toward Kurohane!
Magneto's mental power was almost exhausted. His previous six steel torrents could only maintain two. This level of attack was nothing in Apocalypse's eyes. As long as he dealt with Kurohane, it would be fine. Kurohane flapped his wings to avoid the quicksand attack, but the white energy beam he unleashed didn't stop. It still surged toward Apocalypse, rapidly draining his mental power!
"Jean!!! Unleash your power! It's your turn to protect everyone now!"
Kurohane was being chased across the sky by that gigantic quicksand hand, completely cornered. He could only loudly shout Phoenix's name, saying that if the sky fell, Phoenix would hold it up. But now, the team fight had reached the execution phase, and the strongest DPS hadn't moved yet. The sky had already collapsed, and he was the one holding it. What was going on?!
Buzz—!
A Seraphim Shield hundreds of meters in size appeared, slamming hard into the giant quicksand hand pursuing Kurohane. It shattered the giant hand into sparse quicksand, creating a small storm in front of Kurohane. He was pulled into several turns in the air before stabilizing his figure. Even the Flash of Light of Vishanti was interrupted. He looked in surprise toward Phoenix, Jean Grey, who stood in the air!
Kurohane: "This is the first time I've known this spell could be used like this! So you're a Shield Hero too?"
Apocalypse was also surprised by the sudden attack. The power contained in that shield just now was even higher than the level of the white light energy Kurohane summoned, completely exceeding his expectations. It was more shocking than seeing humans able to make nuclear bombs after sleeping for thousands of years. Now every Mutant had some new tricks up their sleeve!
While Apocalypse was stunned, another massive energy shield descended from the sky. It slammed hard into Apocalypse's protective shield. The shield and protective shield rubbed against each other, creating huge sparks! Accompanied by a clear phoenix cry, a fiery phoenix seemed to appear on Jean, who stood in the air. Two completely opposite energies, life and destruction, coexisted harmoniously in her body, tearing through the armor on Apocalypse in just a flash. It instantly exposed Apocalypse's muscular upper body. The energy continuously ripped at his skin. Apocalypse's self-healing ability constantly repaired his wounded parts, and his bright red muscles and blue skin repeatedly emerged!
Apocalypse: "Can't win! Must run!!!"
A blue energy sphere appeared. This was Apocalypse's spatial transfer ability. It was through this move that Apocalypse could instantly appear at the Mutant school and abduct Professor X. Although the activation time wasn't as fast as Nightcrawler's teleportation, the teleportation distance was quite far! Where there was life, there was hope. When under someone's roof, one had to bow one's head. Facing the terrifying Phoenix Force, Apocalypse decisively chose to run!
Crack, crack!
Several sounds of thunder came from the sky. Storm had flown into the sky at some point. Just as she was about to unleash lightning, she was hit in the stomach by Kurohane, who flew above!
"You audacious demoness! You dare launch a sneak attack?!"
