Chapter 358 Using a Planet to Collide with Earth
Connors hovers in near-Earth orbit, surrounded by thousands of meteorites dragged from the edge of the solar system using a "bio-force field".
These meteorites range in size from as small as a satellite to almost the size of New York City.
Connors looked down at the Earth below, then casually picked one of the meteorites, held it above his head, and slammed it down onto the Earth's surface.
Given his strength and the unique nature of his "biofield," if this meteorite were allowed to fall to the ground, it would almost certainly trigger a tsunami and a series of earthquakes.
At this moment, almost the entire Earth, thousands of superheroes, have gathered at the meteorite's impact point, equipped with all sorts of high-tech weapons and equipment, ready to intervene and stop the meteorite at any time.
With a deafening roar, the meteorite crashed into the atmosphere, the intense friction igniting flames on its surface, their brightness remaining clearly visible even in daylight.
The meteorite traced an arc across the sky, and some ordinary people, unaware of what was happening, excitedly raised their phones to take pictures or clasped their hands together to make a wish.
But at the point where the meteorite landed, a girl with long orange-red hair was staring intently at the meteorite engulfed in flames, her fists also covered with "phoenix fire" with visible feather patterns.
As the meteorite drew closer to the ground, she suddenly raised her hand, and a fiery claw shot out from afar, actually meeting the meteorite head-on. Then, she crushed it with a single claw, turning it into a shower of powder.
Seeing this, Connors, who was in space, did not stop. He grabbed a larger and harder meteorite and slammed it to the ground. This time he used more force and the meteorite flew to the ground at a faster speed.
But the "Phoenix Fire" seemed to be inexhaustible and never-ending, and no matter how hard the meteorite was, or how much force Connors used, it could be crushed with a single claw.
During this time, Connors even tried to place more than a hundred meteorites in front of him at the same time and then quickly kick them out one by one, but the "Phoenix Force" still dealt with them with ease.
Half a day later, just as Connors was about to unleash a major attack, he was shocked to find that the meteorite beside him had been completely destroyed.
"Wait a few minutes for me."
Connors said, reaching out to open a dimensional portal, which led to the depths of space, tens of light-years away.
Passing through the golden, circular dimensional gate, Connors picked and chose an asteroid, only slightly smaller than the moon, and pushed it towards Earth.
This time, unlike when he was pushing the moon to chase the Earth, he had to take it easy to avoid overshooting. Connors used all his strength, employing techniques like "magnification," "human limits," "photosynthesis," "lock-picking master," "reality distortion," and "Omega effect"—
Using a series of abilities simultaneously, Connors arrived in the solar system three minutes later and continued to push the asteroid toward Earth.
"S**T! Is this guy serious?!"
Captain America, hearing the warning from Iron Man's satellite in the communication system, cursed angrily and turned to the superheroes without hesitation, shouting:
"Be on guard! Be on guard!"
On the edge of the crowd, the "White Queen" sat on a rock in the grass, her elbows resting on her knees, her delicate face resting on her hands.
She watched as Connors continuously dropped meteorites from space, which Hope, now fully in control of the Phoenix Force, would then shatter, thus testing Hope's mastery of the Phoenix Force.
Meteorites kept exploding in the sky like fireworks. Emma, the "White Queen," didn't clasp her hands together to make a wish like ordinary people. She just sat there somewhat dejectedly.
"Storm, Wanda, Magik, Psylocke —"
"They are all very strong, at least much stronger than me. Now I've become someone who is insignificant to Connors and Phoenix among the mutants."
"It's quite relaxing."
"Hundred Queens" looked up at the asteroid that had appeared faintly outside the atmosphere, covering most of the sky.
Although only a day had passed, people were coming and going around Connors. Iron Man even spent a huge sum of money to bring a roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) vendor from China to the Avengers Tower overnight, just because Connors had mentioned it once.
She missed the days when she fought alongside Connors, but she felt that such an opportunity was unlikely to come again in the future.
·—
Outside the atmosphere, the asteroid is getting closer and closer. Due to its gravitational pull, some ordinary people are unable to walk normally, and some light objects are beginning to float into the sky.
The seawater surged with huge waves, but the prepared superheroes immediately used their abilities to calm them down.
The "White Queen" sat motionless, and at a certain moment, cracks suddenly appeared on the surface of the asteroid, marks of its impending being torn apart by Earth's gravity.
The superheroes all looked tense, and Ant-Man couldn't help but complain:
"Should I grow bigger now so that even if I get flattened, the rescue team will find me first?"
"If we let this asteroid fall, it's questionable whether the 'rescue team' will even still exist," War Machine said, shrugging his shoulders in despair.
Black Widow stared at the sky, speechless. She knew Connors was powerful; she had already experienced it firsthand at Limbo.
But I didn't know it was this powerful:
"This was just to test the level of control over the 'Phoenix Force.' Isn't using an asteroid to bombard Earth a bit too much?"
Captain America glanced down at his vibranium shield, which was only slightly larger than his buttocks, then looked up at the asteroid in the sky that was getting closer and bigger. He couldn't help but think of some swear words, but then he swallowed them back:
"Connors said before we started that he was confident no matter what we did, and now I can only choose to believe that he was telling the truth."
He turned to look at Hope, who stood to the side with a serious expression. Fine beads of sweat had appeared on the girl's forehead, and her long, orange-red hair was flowing upwards.
The other superheroes are nervously awaiting the arrival of the asteroid, and they also notice Hope's unusual behavior.
"Does she really think she can crush this planet like she crushed the meteorite before?!"
Spider-Man, clutching his head, stood to the side, feeling helpless. The surrounding area was all plains, with no tall buildings or trees for him to swing on. At this moment, he could only pin his hopes on Hope.
Hope was gradually engulfed in flames, and two fiery wings behind her suddenly rose up, like wings that covered her back, before flapping forward sharply.
The asteroid, its surface riddled with cracks and about to be torn apart by Earth's gravity before crashing, immediately burst into a raging inferno.
The image of a phoenix flashed by in the orange-red flames, followed by a deafening explosion that tore the planet apart.
Then the entire sky was covered in flames, as if the atmosphere had begun to burn. Fragments of the planet were burned to ashes in the blink of an eye, falling to the earth like a black snowfall.
"The Phoenix Force is indeed very useful." Connors nodded in satisfaction, blew a breath to disperse the black ash filling the air, and slowly landed on the ground.
Besides a piece of roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) casually handed to him by "Iron Man," he was greeted by a series of fearful looks from other superheroes who wanted to criticize him but dared not speak out due to their power.
Captain America hesitated for a long time before finally speaking:
"You—never mind, you said you were confident, so it seems you weren't wrong."
Connors laughed heartily, devoured the roujiamo (Chinese meat sandwich) in two bites, and then, arm in arm with Iron Man, prepared to attend a banquet with a string of titles such as "The Phoenix Force will be eradicated forever, the Avengers and mutants will no longer be in conflict, and Earth will gain two new superheroes (Connors and Hope)."
