Chapter 325
"Anchor Points require regular maintenance." Elder Hode's voice suddenly rang out from the hilt, but this time it carried distinct mechanical static. "But the maintainer... must pay the price."
Hode felt his DNA being quantized; he saw Wanda's lips moving, but all sound was shredded by the spacetime storm.
When Diana's blade pierced his heart, he heard the Amazon war song turn into a dirge; when Carol's Photon Pulse pierced his skull, he saw the interstellar ranger's tears freeze into ice crystals in the vacuum; when Barbara's neural whip coiled around his neck, he felt the digital ghost deleting his memories.
Just as the five rays of light were about to be swallowed by the vortex, Hode suddenly remembered the image of his older self tearing the Mobius Ring scar in two.
His Star Ring blade suddenly burst with a radiance beyond the spectrum, carving the anti-entropy formula into the spacetime vortex. But this time, the formula contained an extra line of strange code—a quantum key composed of the initials of the four women's names.
Thanos's phantom began to distort, and he saw Hodes from countless parallel Universes open their eyes at the same time.
Wanda, Diana, Carol, and Barbara in every timeline were cracking the entropy increase equation in different ways, but their consciousness imprints were being stripped from Hode's DNA.
"You think Anchor Points are just a burden?" Hode's voice overlapped across countless timelines, but this time it carried distinct electrical static. "They are also..."
His Star Ring blade suddenly pierced Thanos's core, and the purple mechanical skeleton disintegrated into elementary particles under the anti-entropy formula.
But on the eve of victory, Hode saw the bodies of his four lovers quantizing simultaneously, their consciousness imprints turning into four beams of light that injected into the embryo of the new Universe.
The spacetime vortex suddenly collapsed into a singularity, and Hode felt his consciousness being pulled by the Anchor Point toward infinite parallel Universes.
He saw Wanda's Chaos Magic rebuilding Sokovia, Dianatraining warriors on Paradise Island, Carol leading an interstellar fleet, and Barbara weaving digital firewalls—but every image was distorted within a purple halo.
"The game has only just begun, my child." Thanos's phantom laughed deep within the singularity, but the voice had turned into the mechanical static of countless Elder Hodes.
As Hode's Mobius Ring Sword was about to strike the embryo's core, he saw the quantum projections of himself and his four lovers self-destructing simultaneously across infinite Universes.
The quantum runes on the blade suddenly projected a holographic image—Wanda smiling amidst blood-red butterflies, Diana's liquid gold turning into a sacred tree, Carol's Photon Pulse igniting a star, and Barbara's virus code weaving into a digital galaxy.
But purple halos were seeping from the edges of the images, and Thanos in every timeline opened his purple eyes deep within the embryo.
Hode's consciousness began to blur. He heard Wanda's lips moving, and this time he finally heard her warning clearly: "Do not be deceived by appearances..." But the voice was shredded by the spacetime storm, intertwining with Diana's war song, Carol's roar, and Barbara's scream into quantum noise.
His Star Ring blade was but a nanometer away from the embryo's core, but the quantum key on the blade suddenly began to rotate in reverse.
Hode felt his DNA being pulled by the Anchor Point toward infinite parallel Universes; Wanda, Diana, Carol, and Barbara in every timeline were bearing the backlash in different ways.
The moment the blade was about to pierce the core, Hodesuddenly saw the image of his older self tearing the Mobius Ring scar in two.
But this time, it was not light that poured from the scar, but a purple Data Stream.
He heard Thanos's cruel laughter and his four lovers' screams overlapping across infinite timelines, but his own voice had been quantized into a digital ghost.
The instant the blade pierced the core, Hode felt the memories of all parallel Universes flood his mind at once.
He saw Wanda raising the Mind Stone in countless Universes simultaneously, Diana severing timelines with weapons of various forms, Carol traveling between stars to absorb energy, and Barbara fighting the entropy increase virus in the digital abyss.
But every image distorted into Thanos's cruel laughter within a purple halo.
The spacetime vortex suddenly collapsed into a singularity, and Hode's consciousness was pulled by the Anchor Point toward infinite parallel Universes.
He saw his Star Ring blade evolving into the form of a Mobius Ring, with quantum runes of his lovers' names engraved on every link.
But the runes were being eroded by the purple Data Stream, turning into Thanos's hideous grinning face.
When Hode fell from the spacetime vortex, the ruins of the Sanctuary had transformed into the embryo of a new Universe.
He gripped the Mobius Ring Sword tightly, and the quantum runes on the blade suddenly projected a holographic image—but Wanda, Diana, Carol, and Barbarain the image were all quantizing within a purple halo, their consciousness imprints turning into four beams of light that injected into the embryo's core.
Hode felt his DNA merging with the Anchor Point, and he saw Hodes from countless parallel Universes raising their weapons simultaneously.
Thanos in every timeline opened his purple eyes deep within the embryo, but embedded in their crowns were the corrupted Mind Stones of his four lovers.
The mechanical static from the hilt suddenly turned into Wanda's warning: "Do not be deceived by appearances..." But the voice was shredded by the spacetime storm, intertwining with Diana's war song, Carol's roar, and Barbara's scream into quantum noise.
Hode's Star Ring blade suddenly burst with a radiance beyond the spectrum, carving the anti-entropy formula into the embryo's core.
But this time, the formula contained an extra line of strange code—a quantum key composed of the initials of the four women's names, which was being eroded in reverse by the purple Data Stream.
Hode felt his consciousness splitting; he saw Hodes from countless parallel Universes self-destructing simultaneously, and Wanda, Diana, Carol, and Barbara in every timeline bearing the backlash in different ways.
The moment the blade was about to pierce the core, Hodesuddenly heard his older self's voice ringing out deep within the singularity: "Once an Anchor Point is established... it cannot be undone."
But the voice had turned into Thanos's cruel laughter, and the purple Data Stream surged up from the blade, quantizing Hode's DNA into countless Mobius Rings.
His consciousness began to blur, but his lips curled into a smile. Because in his final vision, Wanda's Chaos Magic, Diana's Aegis of the Sun, Carol's Photon Pulse, and Barbara's virus code were blooming simultaneously into quantum fireworks across infinite parallel Universes.
And Thanos's hideous grinning face was twisting into a terrified purple vortex at the center of every firework.
Chapter 438: And I Only See... The Future That Must Be Protected
The purple halo of the Sanctuary ruins cast quantum ripples on Hode's retina, and his hand gripping the Mobius Ring Sword began to tremble.
Every scratch on the blade reflected the image of a different Universe—Wanda reaching out to him in the blood-red chaos, Diana's liquid gold War Armor collapsing at the edge of a spacetime rift, Carol's Photon Pulseflickering in a stellar storm, and Barbara's virus code manifesting as digital ghosts flickering within the Data Stream.
"You see infinite possibilities, but I only see... the future that must be protected."
A metallic taste rose in Hode's throat; it was the quantum brand left in his blood by the anti-entropy symbol.
He suddenly remembered a parallel timeline where Wanda had whispered to him: "The true Anchor Point is the courage you have to stand against the entire Multiversefor their sake."
Thanos's cruel laughter vibrated deep within the singularity, and the purple Data Stream began to condense into tangible tentacles.
Hode felt the mechanical static from the hilt overlap with his older self's voice: "Every choice is a new Anchor Point, and every Anchor Point is a new wound."
But this time, the static was mixed with the whispers of Wanda's Chaos Magic, the tremolo of Diana's war song, the hum of Carol's pulses, and the ticking of Barbara's code.
"Then, let me become the collection of all wounds."
Hode's Mobius Ring Sword suddenly emitted a resonance like the crying of an infant, and the quantum runes on the blade began to rotate in reverse.
He saw the projection of blood-red butterflies floating in Wanda's pupils, each wing bearing a Universe devoured by entropy increase; Diana's blade oozed black dark matter blood, each drop exploding into a sacred tree within the spacetime rift; Carol's Photon Pulse turned into stellar chains, each link coiling around a different form of Thanos; Barbara's virus code bloomed into digital flowers upon the anti-entropy symbol, each petal recording the coordinates of corrupted Infinity Stones.
"You think reversing time can change the outcome?" Thanos's phantom suddenly split into countless quantum versions, each wearing the Infinity Gauntlet of a different Universe. "The most fatal flaw in the emotional spectrum is hope itself!"
His mechanical skeleton let out a piercing shriek, and the cosmic embryo behind him opened thousands of pupils, each reflecting the image of Hode quantizing after embracing his lovers.
Hode's DNA began to quantize; he felt Wanda's Chaos Magic reshaping his neural synapses, Diana's Aegis of the Sun igniting golden flames in his blood, Carol's Photon Pulse causing stellar patterns to ripple across his skin, and Barbara's virus code weaving digital barriers deep within his cells.
But all his power was being eroded in reverse by the purple Data Stream, and purple spots began to appear in his consciousness.
"Do not be deceived by appearances..." Wanda's warning suddenly rang out in the quantum projection of the blade; her blood-red butterflies were laying eggs on the crowns of Thanos in different Universes.
Hode's pupils contracted—curled up inside each egg was a Hode of a newborn Universe, with four points of light floating over their hearts, but the points of light were being coiled by purple tentacles.
Diana's liquid gold suddenly seeped into the ground, and the ruins of the Sanctuary instantly bloomed into a golden sacred tree, with the spirits of Amazon warriors flowing between its branches and leaves.
Their spears pierced the spacetime rift, pinning Thanos's avatars across countless parallel Universes. But each spear carbonized within the purple halo, and the faces of the spirits gradually twisted into Thanos's hideous grinning face.
Carol's Photon Pulse turned into a stellar storm, melting Thanos's silver crown into liquid metal.
When the metal dripped to the ground, it exploded into purple halos, and at the center of each halo appeared a newborn cosmic embryo, from which the resonance of Wanda's Chaos Magic and Thanos's entropy increase crown could be heard.
Hode felt his photonized body being reconstructed in reverse by the purple Data Stream, with countless MobiusRing circuits bulging under his skin.
Barbara's virus code suddenly erupted within Thanos's body, and countless digital tattoos bulged under his purple skin.
The tattoos arranged themselves into the coordinates of the corrupted Infinity Stones, each coordinate corresponding to a Universe that was collapsing.
Hode saw his DNA double helix emerging in the torrent of code, but the helix was being dismantled into quantum bits by the purple Data Stream.
"You don't understand at all!" Thanos's mechanical skeleton shrieked, and the cosmic embryo behind him suddenly opened a single purple eye, its pupil reflecting the image of countless Elder Hodes self-destructing.
In every image, Hode was destroying the Anchor Point in a different way, but each destruction was accompanied by a more terrifying burst of entropy increase.
Hode's Mobius Ring Sword suddenly burst with a radiance beyond the spectrum, and the quantum runes on the blade reorganized into the faces of the four women.
Wanda's lips parted slightly, silently saying sorry; black dark matter blood oozed from the gaps in Diana's War Armor; Carol's Photon Pulse flickered in her eye sockets; digital ghosts floated deep within Barbara's pupils.
"We have long since been the... Anchor Points of the Multiverse."
Hode's voice overlapped across countless timelines, but this time it carried distinct electrical static.
When his Star Ring blade pierced Thanos's core, the purple mechanical skeleton disintegrated into stardust amidst the crying of an infant.
But the stardust melted as soon as it hit the ground, turning into a purple Data Stream that injected into the embryo of the new Universe.
The spacetime vortex suddenly collapsed into a singularity, and Hode felt his consciousness being pulled by the Anchor Point toward infinite parallel Universes.
He saw Wanda's Chaos Magic rebuilding Sokovia, but the city twisted into Thanos's hideous grinning face within a purple halo; Diana training warriors on Paradise Island, but their blades pierced their own reflections; Carol leading an interstellar fleet, but every warship quantized in a supernova explosion; Barbara weaving digital firewalls, but the code collapsed into a purple Data Stream amidst the entropy increase virus.
"The game has only just begun, my child." Thanos's phantom laughed deep within the singularity, but the voice had turned into the mechanical static of countless Elder Hodes.
As Hode's Mobius Ring Sword was about to strike the embryo's core, he saw the quantum projections of himself and his four lovers self-destructing simultaneously across infinite Universes.
Each self-destruction image was accompanied by a resonance like the crying of an infant, but the crying gradually turned into Thanos's cruel laughter.
The quantum runes on the blade suddenly projected a holographic image—Wanda smiling amidst blood-red butterflies, but the butterflies' wings were being coiled by purple tentacles; Diana's liquid gold turning into a sacred tree, but the sacred tree's branches and leaves were carbonizing; Carol's Photon Pulse igniting a star, but the star was collapsing into a black hole; Barbara's virus code weaving into a digital galaxy, but the galaxy was being devoured by the entropy increase virus.
Hode's consciousness began to blur. He heard Wanda's lips moving, but all sound was shredded by the spacetime storm.
When Diana's blade pierced his heart, he saw the Amazonwar song turn into a dirge; when Carol's Photon Pulsepierced his skull, he saw the interstellar ranger's tears freeze into ice crystals in the vacuum; when Barbara's neural whip coiled around his neck, he felt the digital ghost deleting his memories.
Just as the five rays of light were about to be swallowed by the vortex, Hode's Mobius Ring Sword suddenly burst with a radiance beyond the spectrum.
The quantum key on the blade began to rotate in reverse, and the code composed of the initials of the four women's names turned into a purple Data Stream that injected into the embryo's core.
He saw Hodes from countless parallel Universes open their eyes at the same time; Wanda, Diana, Carol, and Barbara in every timeline were cracking the entropy increase equation in different ways, but their consciousness imprints were being stripped from Hode's DNA.
"Do you think the Anchor is merely a burden?"
Hode's voice overlapped across countless space-times, but this time it carried a distinct electronic static. It was also...
His Mobius Ring Sword suddenly pierced Thanos's core, and the purple mechanical skeleton disintegrated into fundamental particles under the anti-entropy formula.
But on the eve of victory, Hode saw the bodies of his four lovers quantizing simultaneously; their consciousness imprints transformed into four beams of light, injecting into the embryo of the newborn Universe.
The space-time vortex suddenly collapsed into a singularity, and Hode felt his consciousness being pulled by the Anchor toward infinite parallel Universes.
He saw Wanda's Chaos Magic rebuilding Sokovia, Dianatraining warriors on Paradise Island, Carol leading an interstellar fleet, and Barbara weaving digital firewalls—but every image twisted within a purple halo.
The moment the blade was about to pierce the core, Hodesuddenly saw an image of his older self tearing the MobiusRing scar in half.
But this time, it wasn't light gushing from the scar, but a purple Data Stream.
He heard Thanos's sinister laughter and the screams of his four lovers overlapping across infinite space-times, but his own voice had been quantized into a digital phantom.
The instant the blade pierced the core, Hode felt memories from all parallel Universes flood his mind simultaneously.
He saw Wanda raising the Mind Stone in countless Universes simultaneously, Diana severing timelines with weapons of various forms, Carol weaving between stars to absorb energy, and Barbara fighting the entropy-increasing virus in the digital abyss.
But every image twisted within the purple halo into Thanos's hideous grinning face.
The space-time vortex suddenly collapsed into a singularity, and Hode's consciousness was pulled by the Anchor toward infinite parallel Universes.
He saw his Mobius Ring Sword evolving into the shape of a Mobius Ring, each segment engraved with quantum runes of his lovers' names.
But the runes were being eroded by the purple Data Stream, turning into Thanos's hideous grinning face.
When Hode fell from the space-time vortex, the ruins of the Sanctuary had transformed into the embryo of a newborn Universe.
He gripped the Mobius Ring Sword, and the quantum runes on the blade suddenly projected a hologram—but in the image, Wanda, Diana, Carol, and Barbara were all quantizing within the purple halo, their consciousness imprints turning into four beams of light that injected into the core of the embryo.
Hode felt his DNA merging with the Anchor, and he saw Hodes from countless parallel Universes raising their weapons simultaneously.
In every space-time, Thanos opened his 705u.com-53 Reading Club purple eyes deep within the embryo, but embedded on their crowns were the contaminated Mind Stones of the four lovers.
The mechanical static at the hilt suddenly turned into Wanda's warning: "Don't be deceived by appearances..."
But the voice was torn into fragments by the space-time storm, intertwining with Diana's war song, Carol's roar, and Barbara's scream to form quantum noise.
Hode's Mobius Ring Sword suddenly erupted with a radiance beyond the spectrum, carving the anti-entropy formula into the core of the embryo.
But this time, there was an extra line of strange code in the formula—a quantum key composed of the first letters of the four women's names, which was being reverse-eroded by the purple Data Stream.
Hode felt his consciousness splitting; he saw Hodes from countless parallel Universes self-destructing simultaneously, with Wanda, Diana, Carol, and Barbara in each space-time bearing the backlash in different ways.
The moment the blade was about to pierce the core, Hodesuddenly heard his older self's voice echoing from the depths of the singularity: "Once the Anchor is established... it cannot be removed."
But the voice had turned into Thanos's sinister laughter, and the purple Data Stream flowed backward from the blade, quantizing Hode's DNA into countless MobiusRings.
His consciousness began to blur, but a smile tugged at the corners of his mouth.
Because in his final vision, Wanda's Chaos Magic, Diana's Aegis of the Sun, Carol's Photon Pulse, and Barbara's virus code were blooming simultaneously across infinite parallel Universes into quantum fireworks.
And Thanos's hideous grinning face was twisting into a terrified purple vortex at the center of each firework.
Chapter 439: Do you see? This is the price of the Anchor.
Hode's blade hovered above the embryo's core, purple spots of light intertwining in his vision into Thanos's sinister laughter.
He could hear the voices of his four lovers remaining in the quantum network—Wanda's chaotic whispers, the tremolo of Diana's war song, the hum of Carol's pulses, and the ticking of Barbara's code—all twisting into static within the purple Data Stream.
"The Anchor... is betraying us."
A bloody taste rose in Hode's throat, and the anti-entropy symbols boiled like magma in his blood.
He suddenly remembered Carol whispering to him: "Stars may burn out, but the Anchor never betrays."
Yet, at this moment, those quantum runes engraved with his lovers' names were peeling off the surface of the embryo, turning into Thanos's hideous grinning face.
The ruins of the Sanctuary suddenly shook violently, and the ground cracked open like the maw of an abyss.
Countless purple tentacles gushed from the cracks, each suspended with Hodes from different Universes—some consumed by Chaos Magic into skeletons, some melted into golden eagles by the Aegis of the Sun, some blown into stardust by Photon Pulses, and some rewritten into digital phantoms by virus code.
"Do you see? This is the price of the Anchor."
Thanos's mechanical skeleton emerged from the embryo's core, the crown on his head having transformed into a cage woven from purple Data Stream, imprisoning the quantum projections of countless Wandas, Dianas, Carols, and Barbaras.
Their lips moved silently, every warning turning into the echo of Thanos's sinister laughter.
Hode felt the Mobius Ring Sword becoming transparent, and the mechanical static at the hilt suddenly became clear: "Every choice is a new wound, and every wound is a new Anchor."
It was his older self's voice, but now it overlapped with Thanos's screech.
He saw his own DNA double helix unfolding within the purple halo, the quantum imprints left by his four lovers being devoured by the entropy-increasing virus.
"Still not enough..."
Hode's pupils rippled with a bloody hue, and Wanda's Chaos Magic suddenly exploded within his synapses.
He saw countless Wandas from parallel Universes raising the Mind Stone simultaneously, but every Mind Stoneshattered into entropy-increasing dust within the purple halo.
Diana's liquid gold seeped from the blade, but the moment it touched the embryo, it solidified into a hideous statue of Thanos.
Carol's Photon Pulse went berserk inside Hode, and star patterns scorched purple scars onto his skin.
He heard countless Carols screaming in the vacuum, but every scream was swallowed by space-time rifts into Thanos's wild laughter.
Barbara's virus code suddenly went berserk deep within his cells, and the digital barrier turned into a purple cage, with every code fragment repeating: "The Anchor is a cage..."
"The courage you gave me... is killing me."
Hode's blade suddenly pierced the embryo's core, but the purple mechanical skeleton proliferated wildly under the anti-entropy formula.
He saw Hodes from countless parallel Universes self-destructing simultaneously, each self-destruction accompanied by the annihilation of his lovers' consciousness.
Thanos's phantom laughed deep within the singularity, and the cosmic embryo behind him suddenly opened thousands of purple eyes, each reflecting the image of Hode and his lovers quantizing after their embrace.
Just as the purple Data Stream was about to drown his consciousness, Hode suddenly heard a strange mechanical voice ringing deep within the hilt: "The Anchor is not the end..."
This was not his older self's voice, nor was it Thanos's screech, but some more ancient existence.
He saw the Mobius Ring Sword begin to rotate in reverse, with the contaminated gemstone coordinates of his four lovers appearing on each segment.
"But rather..."
The mechanical voice suddenly turned into Wanda's sobbing, and Hode felt the Chaos Magic reshaping his synapses.
He saw Diana's liquid gold seep into the embryo's core, transforming into a golden divine tree that pierced the purple halo.
Carol's Photon Pulse suddenly erupted, melting Thanos's mechanical skeleton into liquid metal.
Barbara's virus code blossomed into a digital galaxy within the Data Stream, swallowing the entropy-increasing virusinto a purple black hole.
The space-time vortex suddenly collapsed into a singularity, and Hode's consciousness was pulled by the Anchor toward infinite parallel Universes.
He saw Wanda's Chaos Magic rebuilding Sokovia, but the city twisted into Thanos's hideous grinning face within the purple halo; Diana training warriors on Paradise Island, but their blades pierced their own reflections; Carol leading an interstellar fleet, but every warship quantized in a supernova explosion; Barbara weaving digital firewalls, but the code collapsed into a purple Data Stream within the entropy-increasing virus.
"The game has only just begun, my child."
Thanos's phantom laughed deep within the singularity, but the voice had turned into the mechanical static of countless older Hodes.
When Hode's Mobius Ring Sword was about to pierce the embryo's core, he saw himself and the quantum projections of his four lovers self-destructing simultaneously across infinite Universes.
Each self-destruction was accompanied by a resonance like a baby's cry, but the cry gradually turned into Thanos's sinister laughter.
The quantum runes on the blade suddenly projected a hologram—Wanda smiling amidst blood-red butterflies, but the butterflies' wings were being entangled by purple tentacles; Diana's liquid gold turning into a divine tree, but the tree's branches and leaves were carbonizing; Carol's Photon Pulse igniting stars, but the stars were collapsing into black holes; Barbara's virus code weaving a digital galaxy, but the galaxy was being devoured by the entropy-increasing virus.
Hode's consciousness began to blur; he saw Wanda's lips moving, but all sound was torn apart by the space-time storm.
When Diana's blade pierced his heart, he saw the Amazonwar song turn into a dirge; when Carol's Photon Pulsepierced his skull, he saw the Interstellar Ranger's tears freeze into ice crystals in the vacuum; when Barbara's neural whip coiled around his neck, he felt the digital phantom deleting his memories.
Just as the five rays of light were about to be swallowed by the vortex, Hode's Mobius Ring Sword suddenly erupted with a radiance beyond the spectrum.
The quantum key on the blade began to rotate in reverse, and the code composed of the first letters of the four women's names turned into a purple Data Stream that injected into the embryo's core.
He saw Hodes from countless parallel Universes open their eyes simultaneously, with Wandas, Dianas, Carols, and Barbaras in each space-time using different ways to crack the entropy-increasing equation, but their consciousness imprints were being stripped from Hode's DNA.
"Do you think the Anchor is merely a burden?"
Hode's voice overlapped across countless space-times, but this time it carried a distinct electronic static. It was also...
His Mobius Ring Sword suddenly pierced Thanos's core, and the purple mechanical skeleton disintegrated into fundamental particles under the anti-entropy formula.

And Thanos's hideous grinning face was twisting into a terrified purple vortex at the center of each firework.
AI Model: gemini-3.5-flash
The moment the blade pierced the embryo's core, the purple vortex suddenly collapsed into a single point of purple light. Wanda's smile was reflected in Hode's pupils, but her lips moved soundlessly, speaking Thanos's line: "This time... you lose."
Suddenly, a new silhouette of figures emerged from the purple light—Iron Man in his futuristic War Armor stood shoulder-to-shoulder with Captain America holding a glowing hammer, and behind them was Doctor Strangefloating in a quantum cloud. Hode's Mobius Ring Swordbegan to vibrate violently, and a brand-new mechanical voice came from the hilt: "Unregistered anchor signal detected..."
Chapter 440: Wanda's Chaos Whispers Resound in All Spacetimes Simultaneously
The War Armor in the purple light made a familiar metallic clinking sound. The moment Tony Stark aimed his Repulsor Ray at the space between Hode's brows, he suddenly veered off. His voice, laced with static, came from the quantum cloud in a teasing tone: "It seems Thanos's entropy-increasing virus has made your DNA sequence harder to crack than Stark Tower's firewall."
Hode gripped the trembling hilt; the quantum runes on the Mobius ring were oozing purple droplets of blood. Doctor Strange's cloak whipped up ripples in spacetime, and memory fragments of countless parallel Universes pierced into his mind—he saw Wanda in one spacetime using Chaos Magic to reconstruct reality, only to trap Hode's consciousness in an infinite loop of a time cage; in another Universe, Diana bound Thanos with the Lasso of Truth, yet her golden armor dissolved into liquid laser under the erosion of entropy; Carol's pulse cannon pierced through stars, only to trigger a supernova chain collapse; Barbara's torrent of code engulfed the purple virus, only for her to see countless versions of herself undergoing reverse quantization deep within the ocean of data.
"Don't be fooled by appearances..." Wanda's warning suddenly exploded from deep within the blade. Hode woke up with a start, only to find that Captain America's shield had somehow embedded itself into the ground, dark red energy oozing from its cracks. "Your anchor is becoming the core vulnerability of the new Universe." Steve's voice was wrapped in quantum dust, and the star-spangled pattern on the shield suddenly came alive, wrapping around Hode's ankles.
Thanos's sinister laughter gushed out from the vortex of purple light, but this time it was mixed with Carol's anxious cry: "Hode! Look at their shadows!" Hode's pupils shrank. The quantum projections of the three elongated into hideous outlines in the purple light—purple code crawled through the gaps in Tony's War Armor, the fangs of Thanos appeared on the edge of Steve's shield, and bloody veins of Chaos Magic seeped from Doctor Strange's cloak.
"These are not them!" A chaos whisper burst from Hode's throat, and the Mobius Ring Sword suddenly split into four streams of light, each injecting into the shadows of the four heroes. Doctor Strange's projection let out an inhuman shriek as the quantum cloud condensed into purple chains; Thanos's purple tentacles reached out from the cracks in Captain America's shield; Tony's Repulsor Ray blasted an entropy-increasing black hole in the void.
Hode felt his heart being torn apart by four forces simultaneously. Wanda's Chaos Magic built a bloody Great Wall in his neural synapses; Diana's Sun God Fire turned into liquid gold and poured into the blade; Carol's Photon Pulse ran wild in his blood vessels like a supernova; Barbara's virus code was reorganizing his DNA double helix. The fourfold power collided deep within his cells, bursting with a glow that transcended the light spectrum.
"You are even more delicious than I imagined." Thanos's phantom in the purple light suddenly materialized, his mechanical crown embedded with four contaminated stones. With a casual wave of his hand, Doctor Strange's projection tore through spacetime, throwing Hode into the quantum abyss. Countless Thanoses across parallel Universes opened their purple eyes simultaneously, and the ruins of the sanctuary in every spacetime collapsed into embryos.
During his fall, Hode heard the calls of his four lovers across spacetime. Wanda's chaos whispers turned into bloody butterflies, guiding his way through the quantum storm; Diana's battle song turned into liquid gold, wrapping around his body that was about to quantize; Carol's pulse turned into stellar patterns, branding coordinates of light onto his skin; Barbara's code wove into a digital barrier, filtering the entropy-increasing virus into purple raindrops.
"The anchor is rebirth." The voice of his elder self suddenly echoed from deep within the singularity. Hode saw the Mobius Ring Sword evolving into a Klein bottle form. The mechanical static at the hilt, along with Wanda's sobs, Diana's elegy, Carol's roars, and Barbara's screams, interwove into a quantum symphony. Four beams of light gushed out from the mouth of the bottle, carving an anti-entropy formula onto the core of Thanos's embryo.
But the purple mechanical skeleton suddenly exploded, revealing the quantum cloud floating behind it—countless Hodes were dying simultaneously in different spacetimes, each image of Death turning into entropy-increasing dust and injecting into the main Universe. Tony's War Armorsuddenly pierced Hode's left chest, Steve used his shield to refract Carol's photon cannon, and Doctor Strange's spell carbonized Diana's divine wood into ash.
"The game is over." Thanos's mechanical palm pierced through Hode's chest, and the quantized images of his four lovers appeared in the purple Data Stream. Wandadissipated amidst the bloody butterflies, Diana's Amazonbattle song turned into an elegy, Carol was engulfed by a supernova, and Barbara underwent reverse quantization in the digital abyss.
Hode felt his consciousness splitting into countless Mobiusrings, each engraved with the names of his lovers from different spacetimes. He suddenly remembered Barbaraonce saying: "The deepest vulnerabilities in code are often hidden within the most perfect logic." Wanda's chaos whispers resounded in all spacetimes simultaneously: "The anchor is not a shackle, but a key."
The instant Thanos's sinister laugh reached its peak, Hodeused his last shred of consciousness to stab the Mobius Ring Sword into his own DNA double helix. The purple vortex suddenly collapsed into a singularity, and four beams of light gushed out from the cracks in spacetime, carving the coordinates of the four stones onto the embryo of the newborn Universe. Doctor Strange's projection let out a cry of shock, Tony's quantum War Armor flashed blue light from a system crash, and the purple patterns on Steve's shield began to peel off in reverse.
0---Requesting Flowers---
When Hode fell from the quantum abyss, the ruins of the sanctuary had turned into a golden divine tree. He saw Wanda reborn amidst the bloody butterflies, Dianareshaping her Amazon War Armor with liquid gold, Carolreturning from the supernova, and Barbara's virus code blooming into a galaxy within the Data Stream. But deep within the pupils of all four, a purple speck of light remained.
"You modified the underlying rules?" Tony's War Armorspewed purple flames, which extinguished in an instant. Steve used his shield to slice through the spacetime rift, revealing the embryo of the Infinity Stones floating behind it. Doctor Strange's cloak swept away Thanos's sinister laughter, but the mechanical static still echoed in the quantum cloud.
Hode gripped the re-solidified Mobius Ring Sword, the mechanical voice at the hilt changing to the frequency of Wanda's sobbing. He suddenly understood that this war spanning across spacetime was nothing but an infinite corridor designed by the entropy-increasing virus. The quantum projections of his four lovers suddenly turned around simultaneously, and behind them, countless Thanoses slowly opened their eyes within the purple halos.
...
"This time..." Carol's pulse cannon blasted a spacetime rift in the void, and Thanos's sinister laughter gushed out from all the rifts. Hode's pupils reflected the four stones that were undergoing quantization; Wanda's Chaos Magic, Diana's Sun God Fire, Carol's Photon Pulse, and Barbara's virus code were simultaneously betraying their Masters.
The quantum runes on the blade suddenly projected holographic images—countless Hodes were self-destructing simultaneously in different spacetimes, each self-destruction accompanied by a resonance like a baby's cry. But the crying gradually turned into Thanos's wild laughter, and purple Data Streams gushed out from all the stones, dyeing the newborn Universe a chaotic purple.
Hode's consciousness began to blur. He saw his four lovers raise their weapons simultaneously, but their attacks distorted into Thanos's hideous smiling face within the purple halo. Just as the Mobius Ring Sword was about to pierce his own heart, he heard the voice of his elder self echo from deep within the singularity: "Once an anchor is established..."
The purple vortex suddenly collapsed into a single point of purple light, and Wanda's smile emerged within the halo. Her lips moved soundlessly, speaking Thanos's line: "This time... you lose." But the light of the four stones suddenly exploded within the purple light, stretching Hode's shadow into a Klein bottle form. The purple Data Streamgushing from the mouth of the bottle was writing new rules in all spacetimes simultaneously.
Chapter 441: That Figure Exuded an Ancient and Mysterious Aura
Hode felt as if he were floating in an endless void, surrounded by distorted spacetime vortexes. Each vortex led to a different Universe, and in every Universe, there was a figure of him, either fighting side-by-side with Wanda, surrounded by Diana's tenderness, soaring through the stars with Carol, or sailing through the ocean of digits with Barbara. But at this moment, those warm scenes were like shattered mirrors, and the only thing showing through the cracks was Thanos's cold, ruthless purple eyes.
"Do you think love can be your shield?" Thanos's voice echoed in Hode's mind, carrying a hint of playfulness. "On this cosmic chessboard, emotion is but the most fragile chess piece."
Hode clenched his teeth, yet an unprecedented determination welled up in his heart. He realized that his close relationships with these female superheroes were not just a source of power—"705u.com-53 Reading Club"—but were the anchors of his soul. Every touch of the soul, every battle fought side-by-side, made him more resilient and helped him understand more deeply what sacrifice and perseverance truly meant.
Wanda's Chaos Magic whispered in his heart, no longer a warning as before, but encouragement: "Hode, see through the illusion and find the truth." Her voice was like a spring breeze, blowing away the fog in his heart. He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and when he opened them again, a light of absolute resolve shone in his eyes.
He felt Diana's power boiling in his veins, her Sun God Fireturning into an unstoppable courage that made him dare to face all fears: "We Amazons never back down, Hode, and neither do you." Her voice was like a battle song, inspiring him to stand tall.
Carol's Photon Pulse surged within him, as brilliant as the stars: "The Universe is vast, and nothing is impossible. As long as our hearts are connected, there is no difficulty we cannot overcome." Her conviction was like a lighthouse, guiding him through the darkness.
Barbara's code wove deep within his mind, constructing indestructible lines of defense: "Code is the language of the Universe, Hode. Use it to write your destiny." Her wisdom was like a key, unlocking his latent, infinite possibilities.
Hode gripped the Mobius Ring Sword tightly, the runes on the blade flashing with unprecedented light. He understood that this battle was not just against Thanos, but also against the fear and despair in his own heart. He had to believe that love and courage, wisdom and faith, could transcend all logic and rules to create a miracle of their own.
"Come on, Thanos." Hode's voice echoed in the void, every word carrying unquestionable power. "Let's end this."
As his voice fell, the surrounding spacetime vortexes began to vibrate violently, as if the entire Universe was responding to his call. Images of Wanda, Diana, Carol, and Barbara emerged around him, their eyes filled with trust and support. At this moment, Hode was no longer fighting alone; his heart was closely linked with his four lovers, facing this ultimate challenge together.
Thanos's figure slowly stepped out from the purple vortex. On his mechanical crown, four contaminated stones flashed with an ominous light. But Hode noticed that there seemed to be a hint of instability mixed within that light, as if Thanos's power was reaching its bearing limit.
"Your confidence is admirable, but the outcome was decided long ago." Thanos's voice remained cold, but Hodecould detect a barely noticeable tremor in it.
Hode did not respond, only standing quietly, waiting for that moment to arrive. He knew that the true battle lay not in the competition of external power, but in the choice of the heart. He took a deep breath, and then, with an almost imperceptible movement, activated the final program hidden within the Mobius Ring Sword—an ultimate technique woven together by his four lovers, fusing Chaos Magic, Sun God Fire, Photon Pulse, and quantum code.
In an instant, the blade erupted with a dazzling light, a radiance that transcended the limits of the spectrum, dyeing the entire void in an indescribable brilliance. Hodefelt as if his body was being torn apart by countless forces simultaneously, yet there was also a wondrous sensation, as if he were merging into one with the entire Universe.
A flash of shock crossed Thanos's eyes; he had clearly not expected Hode to be able to unleash such astonishing power. The light of the four stones began to flicker unsteadily, as if interfered with by some unknown force.
"This... what is this?" For the first time, Thanos's voice lost its usual composure.
Hode smiled faintly, a smile that contained too many emotions: love, courage, wisdom, faith, and infinite yearning for the future... "This is our power, Thanos. It is the power of love and hope, a power that transcends all rules and logic."
Chapter 326
As his words fell, the Mobius Ring Sword turned into a stream of light and pierced directly through Thanos's chest.
Thanos's body trembled in the light, the four gems began to spin violently, and finally exploded in a dazzling radiance, turning into specks of purple light that dissipated into the void.
Hode felt as if he were being lifted by an invisible force, and he slowly opened his eyes.
He found himself standing in a newborn Universe, surrounded by brilliant stars, each twinkling with the light of life.
Wanda, Diana, Carol, and Barbara stood by his side, their smiles as warm as sunshine.
"We did it, Hode." Wanda's voice was soft yet firm.
"Yes, together." Diana's voice was full of pride.
Carol patted his shoulder: "The Universe is beautiful because of us, Hode."
Barbara smiled, her eyes twinkling with wisdom: "Now, let us explore these infinite possibilities together."
Hode nodded, his heart filled with unprecedented peace and satisfaction.
He knew that although this battle had ended, their journey had only just begun.
In this newborn Universe, they would continue to fight side by side, using love and courage, wisdom and faith, to write their own legend.
Just then, a faint light flickered in the depths of the Universe; the light seemed to contain some unknown information, attracting their attention.
Hode exchanged a smile with his four lovers; no words were spoken, yet their hearts were connected.
They knew it was a new adventure calling, the beginning of their shared exploration of the unknown.
They set off on their journey hand in hand, their hearts filled with anticipation and longing for the future.
And in this newborn Universe, their story was just beginning to be written...
Suddenly, a strange fluctuation came from afar. Hodeturned to look and saw a huge figure vaguely emerging from a Nebula he had never seen before. The figure exuded an ancient and mysterious aura, as if it were slowly awakening...
Chapter 442 We Will Face It Together, Overcome It Together
Hode stared at the unseen Nebula, curiosity and vigilance intertwined in his heart.
The huge figure loomed in the shadows of the Nebula, and the ancient aura it exuded made him feel an inexplicable sense of oppression.
Wanda, Diana, Carol, and Barbara beside him also noticed this anomaly, their eyes equally filled with vigilance and curiosity.
"What is that?" Wanda spoke first, her voice carrying the subtle fluctuations of Chaos Magic, as if she were ready to deal with any potential crisis at any moment.
Diana gripped the Lasso of Truth in her hand, her eyes firm: "No matter what it is, we will go and see together." Her tone was full of the bravery and determination of an Amazon warrior.
Carol's Photon Pulse flickered slightly around her as she gazed into the distance, her eyes twinkling like stars: "The Universe is always full of unknowns, but that is also its charm. Let's go."
Barbara quickly wove code in her mind, trying to analyze the source of the strange fluctuation: "I am trying to parse the information from that fluctuation, hoping to find some clues."
Hode nodded; he felt the firm support and trust of his four lovers.
Together, they embarked on the journey to that Nebula, their hearts filled with a desire to explore the unknown and a reliance on each other.
As they approached, the huge figure gradually became clear.
It was an ancient cosmic entity, massive in size, radiating a dark light, as if it were composed of the most primitive Dark Energy of the Universe.
Its eyes were deep and mysterious, as if it could see through all the secrets of the Universe.
"I am the Watcher of the Universe," the entity suddenly spoke, its voice deep and majestic, "Who are you, to dare to trespass into my territory?"
Hode stepped forward; he felt the powerful force radiating from the Watcher of the Universe, but he did not back down: "We are travelers from a newborn Universe, Hode, Wanda, Diana, Carol, and Barbara. We have just experienced a difficult battle and are now exploring this unknown Universe."
The Watcher of the Universe stared at them, a hint of interest flashing in its eyes: "A newborn Universe? That is rare. The power you possess is very special, especially you, Hode; you seem to have deep connections with multiple powerful entities."
Hode was shocked; he did not expect the Watcher of the Universe to so easily see through his intimate relationship with his four lovers.
But he did not deny it, instead admitting it calmly: "Yes, we love each other and face all challenges together."
The Watcher of the Universe nodded, seemingly satisfied with Hode's honesty: "In this Universe, power and love are often mutually exclusive. But you have proven that love and courage, wisdom and faith can merge into a force that transcends everything. This is very interesting."
As it spoke, the Watcher of the Universe suddenly stretched out a "finger" and pointed at Hode: "You, Hode, you possess a special potential. I can feel that your intimate relationship with these four women has not only given you power but has also caused some subtle changes in you at the cosmic level."
Hode was stunned; he did not expect the Watcher of the Universe to see through his inner secrets so accurately.
He turned to look at Wanda, Diana, Carol, and Barbara; their eyes were also filled with surprise and curiosity.
"What... does this change mean?" Hode couldn't help but ask.
The Watcher of the Universe pondered for a moment, then slowly spoke: "It means that you have the potential to become a key existence that connects multiple Universes and balances the powers between them. But this also comes with great risks and responsibilities."
A complex emotion welled up in Hode's heart; he felt both honored and under immense pressure.
He knew that becoming a key existence connecting multiple Universes was not an easy task; he would need to put in more effort and make sacrifices.
"We are willing to bear this responsibility together." Wanda suddenly spoke, her voice firm and gentle: "No matter what challenges we may encounter in the future, we will face them together."
Diana, Carol, and Barbara also nodded in agreement, their eyes filled with support and trust for Hode.
The Watcher of the Universe looked at them, a hint of appreciation flashing in its eyes: "Very good. Only those with the courage to face the unknown and challenges are worthy of this power. But remember, the balance between Universes is fragile; once broken, the consequences will be unimaginable."
As it spoke, the Watcher of the Universe suddenly waved its "arm," and a powerful force surged into Hode's body.
Hode felt as if his body were being lifted by an invisible force, and his vision became incomparably vast, as if he could see through all the secrets of the entire Universe.
"This is a gift I give you," the voice of the Watcher of the Universe echoed in Hode's ears, "It will help you better understand and control the powers between Universes. But remember, this power also requires the guidance of love and wisdom."
Hode nodded; he felt the power and mystery of this gift.
He knew that this power would become an important weapon for him to explore the Universe and protect his loved ones in the future.
Just then, a sudden sense of crisis welled up in his heart.
Hode turned to look and saw an evil aura rapidly approaching from a Dark Nebula.
"What... is that?" Hode was shocked; he felt the evil and destructive power contained in that aura.
The Watcher of the Universe also noticed the aura, and its eyes became solemn: "That is an evil force in the Universe; it attempts to destroy the balance between Universes. You must be careful."
Hode gripped the Mobius Ring Sword tightly, his eyes flashing with a resolute light: "We will not let it succeed. No matter what evil force it is, we will face it together and overcome it together."
Wanda, Diana, Carol, and Barbara also stood by Hode's side, their eyes equally filled with determination and courage.
They knew that a new battle was about to begin, and they would fight side by side.
The evil aura drew closer and closer, and a hideous figure was vaguely visible in the Dark Nebula.
Hode took a deep breath; he felt the support and trust of his four lovers.
Together, they headed towards the evil force, ready to engage in a life-and-death struggle.
Just as they were about to collide with the evil force, a thought suddenly flashed through Hode's mind.
He realized that this battle was not just as simple as confronting an evil force; it was a test of love and courage, wisdom and faith.
Hode stared intently at the hideous figure, an unprecedented determination welling up in his heart.
He knew that no matter what challenges and difficulties he might encounter in the future, he would face them and overcome them together with Wanda, Diana, Carol, and Barbara.
Just then, the hideous figure suddenly rushed out of the Dark Nebula, heading straight for Hode.
Hode did not back down; he swung the Mobius Ring Sword and met it. A fierce battle thus unfolded...
Suddenly, a dazzling light shot from afar; the light seemed to contain some unknown power.
Hode and his four lovers turned to look, and at the end of the light, a familiar figure was vaguely visible...
Chapter 443 We Are One, Both in Heart and Power
The figure gradually became clear in the light; it was an existence familiar yet unexpected to Hode—a variant of Wonder Woman from another spacetime, or rather, her sister from a parallel Universe, the Amazon princess Leona.
She wore a combat outfit that shimmered with strange colors, holding a long sword that appeared to be condensed from pure energy, her eyes revealing unquestionable determination and power.
"Hode, and everyone, it seems I have joined at just the right time." Leona's voice traversed the light, carrying an undeniable majesty and warmth.
Her appearance seemed to inject a shot of adrenaline into Hode's group, adding a ray of hope to the originally tense atmosphere.
Hode felt a warmth in his heart; he did not expect reinforcements to arrive at this critical moment.
He nodded to Leona, his eyes full of gratitude: "Leona, your arrival is truly timely. We are in need of such assistance."
Wanda smiled slightly, her Chaos Magic fluctuating gently around them, as if dancing for Leona's arrival: "Welcome to the team; we can just show off our team's strength."
Diana stepped forward and exchanged a smile with Leona; there seemed to be a tacit understanding between the two Amazon warriors that required no words: "I am very glad to have a warrior like you fighting side by side with us."
Carol's Photon Energy gathered behind her into brilliant wings of light; she looked at Leona, her eyes flashing with the light of battle: "The forces of justice in the Universe are always mutually attractive; it seems we are going to write a new legend together today."
Although Barbara had no superpowers, her wisdom shone at this moment, quickly analyzing the tactical advantages that Leona's appearance might bring: "Leona's joining has greatly increased our combat effectiveness and strategic options."
Facing this sudden reinforcement, the evil force seemed to be wary; the hideous figure in the Dark Nebula paused briefly, then let out an even angrier roar, as if to prove it was unstoppable.
"Don't be too happy too soon; the balance of the Universeis not determined by the number of people." The evil force let out a low, wailing sound, and the Dark Energy around it surged even more violently, as if to swallow all light.
Hode gripped the Mobius Ring Sword tightly, his eyes showing no fear, only a firm belief in victory: "No matter who you are or where you come from, we will not sit idly by while you attempt to destroy the balance of the Universe."
Leona stood by Hode's side, her Energy Sword shining with a dazzling light in the sunlight: "Well said, Hode. Let us together, with love and courage, wisdom and faith, protect the peace of this Universe."
The battle was on the verge of breaking out; the evil force launched the first attack, and clusters of Dark Energysurged like a tide, carrying the momentum to destroy everything.
Hode's group responded quickly; Wanda waved her hands, and the Chaos Magic turned into brilliant barriers, blocking the onslaught of Dark Energy;
Diana swung the Lasso of Truth, and wherever it reached, lies and hypocrisy had nowhere to hide; even the Dark Energy seemed to be purified by its pure power;
Carol transformed into a Photon Giant, her Photon Pulselike exploding stars, dispersing the darkness piece by piece;
Barbara was in the rear, using her genius brain to quickly analyze the battlefield situation and provide precise tactical guidance to her teammates.
Leona's joining tipped the scales of battle further towards the side of justice.
Every time her Energy Sword swung, it could sever the flow of Dark Energy, as if she were mending the torn tapestry of the Universe.
Hode, relying on the special ability endowed by his deep intimate relationship with his four lovers, sensed the subtle energy flows in the Universe, guiding the team's power to make it more coordinated and efficient.
During the battle, Hode discovered that whenever his tacit understanding with Wanda, Diana, Carol, Barbara, and Leona reached its peak, his Mobius Ring Sword would emit unprecedented light; wherever the tip pointed, even the most stubborn darkness would be split in two. This power seemed to transcend physical laws and touch the deeper rules of the Universe.
The evil force felt threatened and began to change tactics; several tentacles suddenly stretched out from the Dark Nebula, attempting to divide and conquer them.
Facing this sudden change, Hode did not panic; he took a deep breath and silently recited his love and trust for his five lovers in his heart. At that moment, a soft yet exceptionally tough shield of light appeared around his body; this shield not only protected him but also tightly connected the powers of his five lovers, forming an unbreakable defensive net.
"We are one, both in heart and power." Hode's voice rang in everyone's heart, inspiring them to continue fighting.
Wanda and the others felt Hode's determination and power, and their attacks became even more intense; Chaos Magic, Lasso of Truth, Photon Pulse, tactical wisdom, and Leona's Energy Sword—the five forces intertwined, forming an unprecedented vortex of positive energy, severing the dark tentacles one by one, and finally converging into a powerful force that struck directly at the core of the evil force.
The evil force let out a painful roar, and the Dark Nebulabegan to tremble, as if it could not withstand the impact of this light of justice.
Just when everyone thought victory was in sight, the Dark Nebula suddenly erupted with an unprecedentedly powerful energy wave; this energy wave, carrying the aura of despair and destruction, rushed straight at Hode and his group.
"Watch out!" Hode shouted, quickly mobilizing all his power, attempting to withstand this energy wave.
But just at this critical moment, an unexpected figure suddenly leapt out of the void, blocking in front of Hodeand the others.
AI Model: gemini-3.0-flash
That was—Superman! He wore the classic blue and red suit, and the "S" emblem on his chest shone with the light of hope in the darkness. Superman's appearance was like a brilliant meteor streaking across the dark night sky.
"I won't let anyone hurt my friends." Superman's voice was firm and powerful. Two beams of Heat Vision shot from his eyes, directly meeting the impact of that evil energy, "705u.com-53 Reading Club."
An indescribable wave of emotion welled up in Hode's heart. He knew that no matter how great the difficulty, as long as his friends were there, nothing was impossible. Together with the others, he prepared to face the challenges ahead. With Superman's arrival, that evil power clearly felt unprecedented pressure...
At this moment of tense confrontation, a strange and ancient song suddenly echoed through the Universe. The sound was both distant and close, as if coming from the dawn of the Universe, carrying a mysterious magic that shook the hearts of everyone present. Hode turned toward the direction of the song and saw a mysterious woman draped in Silver Gauze and wearing a Star Crown slowly walking out from a brilliant starlight. Her eyes seemed to contain the secrets of the entire Universe.
"This is..." Hode's heart was filled with doubt and anticipation. He realized that this battle might be far more complex than he had imagined.
Chapter 444: It is our honor to fight alongside you
The mysterious woman stepped on starlight, each step seemingly leaving an eternal mark in the Universe. Her Silver Gauze fluttered gently in the wind, and her long hair under the Star Crown was like the brightest galaxy in the night sky, flowing with endless brilliance. Her eyes were deep, as if she could peer into the deepest parts of the human heart, and as if they hid all the secrets of the Universe.
"Hode, and all you brave warriors, I am the incarnation of the Song of the Universe, Aria." The mysterious woman's voice was like heavenly music, both gentle and full of power, as if it could soothe all pain and inspire endless courage.
Hode was stunned. He hadn't expected to encounter such a mysterious and powerful existence in this battle. He gazed at Aria, a strange sense of familiarity rising in his heart, as if they had known each other in some distant time and space.
"Aria... the incarnation of the Song of the Universe?" Wanda murmured to herself. Her Chaos Magic seemed to become more stable with Aria's appearance, as if soothed by some mysterious power.
Diana stepped forward, her eyes filled with awe: "Aria, your name is sung throughout the Universe, and your song is a symbol of justice and peace. It is our honor to fight alongside you."
Carol's Photon Energy appeared even more dazzling under Aria's light. She smiled and said, "It seems the balance of the Universe truly requires the collective effort of us all to maintain. Aria, welcome to the team."
Although Barbara didn't know much about Aria, her wisdom told her that the appearance of this mysterious woman was no accident: "Aria, your arrival undoubtedly adds more to our chances of victory. Please tell us, what should we do?"
Leona also felt the powerful energy radiating from Aria. Her Energy Sword trembled slightly under Aria's light, as if paying tribute to this incarnation of the Song of the Universe.
Aria smiled as she looked around at everyone, her eyes filled with compassion and determination: "The balance of the Universe is fragile, but as long as our hearts are connected and our hands are joined, nothing is impossible. Hode, the deep bond between you and these brave women has already touched the most powerful force in the Universe. Now, it is time to bring this power to its peak."
As she spoke, Aria slowly raised her hands. A warm and powerful energy surged from her, surrounding Hode and the others. This energy seemed to possess a life of its own, gently stroking everyone's hearts and bringing them endless comfort and strength.
Hode felt the baptism of this energy. He felt as if he were being lifted by an invisible force; his vision became broader, and his heart became firmer. He knew this was the power of the Song of the Universe bestowed upon them by Aria—a perfect combination of love, courage, wisdom, and faith.
"Now, let us use the power of the Song of the Universetogether to counter this evil force." Aria's voice echoed in everyone's ears, her eyes full of expectation and confidence for the future.
Hode gripped the Mobius Ring Sword tightly, an unprecedented determination rising in his heart. He knew that with Aria's joining, they would surely be able to defeat this evil force and protect the peace of the Universe.
The battle erupted once more. The evil force seemed to sense the threat brought by Aria, becoming even more crazed and ferocious. Tentacles from the Dark Nebulastruck at Hode and the others like a violent storm, carrying an aura that sought to destroy everything.
However, Hode and the others showed no fear. They stood closely united, using the power of the Song of the Universeto counter this evil force. Wanda waved her hands, her Chaos Magic blending with the Song of the Universe to form brilliant barriers that blocked the dark tentacles one by one. Diana swung the Lasso of Truth, which became incredibly resilient under the blessing of the Song of the Universe, tightly binding the dark tentacles. Caroltransformed into a Photon Giant, her Photon Pulse shining in harmony with the Song of the Universe to dispel the darkness piece by piece. Barbara remained in the rear, using her genius brain to quickly analyze the battlefield situation and provide precise tactical guidance. Leona's Energy Sword became exceptionally sharp under the power of the Song of the Universe, cutting through the flow of Dark Energy with every swing.
Hode, relying on the special abilities granted by his deep intimacy with his five lovers, sensed the subtle flow of energy in the Universe. He brandished the Mobius Ring Sword; wherever the tip of the sword pointed, even the most stubborn darkness was sliced in two. Under the blessing of the Song of the Universe, his power seemed to transcend the constraints of physical laws, touching the deeper rules of the Universe.
Superman was not idle either, continuing to use his Heat Vision and immense strength to counter the impact of the evil force. With Superman and Aria joining them, Hode and the others seemed to transform into an unstoppable army of justice, launching an assault on the evil force with irresistible force.
Under the fierce attack from Hode and the others, the evil force began to retreat, and the Dark Nebula started to gradually dissipate. However, just when everyone thought victory was in sight, that evil force suddenly erupted with an unprecedentedly powerful wave of energy. This energy wave, carrying the aura of despair and destruction, lunged straight at Hode and the others as if to swallow them whole.
"Everyone, be careful!" Hode shouted, quickly mobilizing all his power to try and block the energy wave. However, at this critical moment, Aria suddenly began to sing that strange and ancient song.
Her song was like the purest spring in the Universe, flowing into everyone's hearts. Under Aria's singing, that evil energy wave seemed to be constrained by some mysterious force and began to gradually weaken. Finally, through Aria's song and the collective efforts of Hode and the others, the evil energy wave completely dissipated into the Universe.
The evil force let out a roar of pain, seemingly unable to believe it would be defeated by Hode and his companions. However, before the power of the Song of the Universe, all evil has nowhere to hide. Ultimately, under the fierce attacks of Hode and the others, that evil force completely collapsed, turning into clumps of Dark Energy that vanished into the Universe.
The battle ended, but Hode and the others did not relax in the slightest. They knew that the appearance of this evil force was just one of countless crises in the Universe. To protect the peace and justice of the Universe, they still needed to keep moving forward.
At that moment, Aria suddenly looked at Hode, her eyes full of expectation and mystery: "Hode, the potential within you is far greater than you imagine. The road ahead is long, and you need to continue digging into your potential to face even more challenges."
Hode was stunned; he hadn't expected Aria to suddenly say such things to him. He gazed at Aria, his heart full of doubt and anticipation: "Aria, are you saying... I have even greater power waiting for me to discover?"
Aria smiled and nodded: "Yes, Hode. Your future is full of infinite possibilities. As long as you continue to fight alongside these brave women and face all challenges with love, courage, wisdom, and faith, you will surely become one of the most powerful existences in the Universe."
As she spoke, Aria's figure suddenly became blurred. She seemed to merge into that brilliant starlight, vanishing at the edge of the Universe.
"Aria!" Hode shouted, trying to keep the mysterious woman's figure there. However, Aria only smiled and waved at him before completely disappearing into the starlight.
Hode stood dazed, staring in the direction where Aria had disappeared, his heart filled with loss and reluctance. However, he also knew Aria was right. His future was still full of infinite possibilities, and he needed to keep working hard to discover his greater strength and protect the peace and justice of the Universe.
Just then, a sudden sense of crisis surged in his heart again. Hode turned to look, only to see an evil aura rapidly approaching from a distant starry sky...
Chapter 445: Merging into that brilliant starlight, vanishing at the edge of the Universe
Hode's heart tightened suddenly. That evil aura was as piercing as ice, making him involuntarily tighten his grip on the Mobius Ring Sword. He looked around; Wanda, Diana, Carol, Barbara, and Leona all felt this unusual threat, their eyes similarly filled with vigilance and determination.
"It seems our battle is not over yet," Hode said in a low voice. Though his voice was calm, his heart was as turbulent as surging waves. He knew that every crisis was a test of the intimate relationship between him and his lovers, as well as their collective strength.
Wanda clenched her hands, Chaos Magic swirling around her as if ready to face new challenges at any moment: "No matter what comes, we will not back down."
Diana's Lasso of Truth swayed gently in her hand as she said firmly: "Justice is never absent; we shall surely overcome all evil."
Carol's Photon Energy flickered on her body. She smiled, her eyes revealing a fearless light: "Bring it on. Whatever evil force it is, let us use the power of photons to completely eliminate it."
Barbara quickly analyzed the source and intensity of that evil aura. Her wisdom was particularly precious at this moment: "We need a plan; we cannot fight blindly."
Leona's Energy Sword hummed in her hand as she said coldly: "No matter how powerful the enemy is, I will use my sword to carve a path for you all."
Just then, that evil aura suddenly accelerated. A pitch-black Nebula spread from the distant starry sky, containing heart-palpitating Dark Energy. In the center of the Nebula, a massive figure slowly emerged—a monster radiating an evil aura, its eyes like abysses that seemed capable of swallowing all light.
"Hode, watch out! This is a powerful enemy!" Wandawarned, her Chaos Magic already beginning to set up defensive barriers around them.
Hode took a deep breath, feeling the special abilities granted by the intimate relationship with his lovers surging within him. He knew that at this moment, they had to unite as one and use the power of the Song of the Universe to counter this new threat.
The monster let out an ear-splitting roar and then swung its massive claws, lunging at Hode and the others. Dark Energy surged like a tide, attempting to completely submerge them.
However, Hode and the others did not panic in the slightest. They stood closely together, using the power of the Song of the Universe to build an indestructible line of defense. Wanda used Chaos Magic to resist the impact of the Dark Energy, Diana used the Lasso of Truth to bind the monster's movements, Carol transformed into a Photon Giant to dispel the Dark Energy with Photon Pulses, Barbara provided precise tactical guidance from the rear, and Leona used her Energy Sword to continuously cut through the dark tentacles released by the monster.
Hode brandished the Mobius Ring Sword, its tip shining with dazzling light under the blessing of the Song of the Universe. He felt the special abilities granted by his deep affection for his lovers continuously strengthening; his power seemed to transcend the shackles of time, and every swing of his sword severed a portion of the monster's Dark Power.
However, this monster was far more powerful than they had imagined. It struggled constantly, trying to break through their defense. Dark Energy lashed at them like a violent storm, putting them under immense pressure.
"We must find its weakness!" Barbara shouted, her voice ringing out clearly across the battlefield.
Hode nodded, staring at the monster to find its flaw. Suddenly, he discovered an anomaly on the monster—its heart area was radiating a much denser Dark Energy than anywhere else.
"There! That's its weakness!" Hode shouted, then mobilized all his power, preparing to launch a fatal blow at the monster's heart.
Wanda, Diana, Carol, Barbara, and Leona all understood Hode's intention. They each used their power to create an opportunity for him. Wanda used Chaos Magic to distract the monster's vision, Diana used the Lasso of Truth to tightly bind its body, Carol transformed into a Photon Giantto draw the monster's attention, Barbara provided precise tactical guidance, and Leona used her Energy Sword to carve a path for Hode toward the monster's heart.
Hode seized the opportunity and thrust the Mobius Ring Sword, its tip gleaming brilliantly, straight into the monster's heart. Under the blessing of the Song of the Universe, his power seemed to pierce through the barriers of time and space, directly hitting the monster's core.
The monster let out a roar of agony, its body trembling violently. Dark Energy surged out from its heart as if trying to break free from all constraints. However, Hode did not let up, continuing to swing the Mobius Ring Sword with all his might, continuously injecting the power of the Song of the Universe into the monster's heart.
