Chapter 352 I Am a Phoenix
One of Connors's perks was the collision between the "Omega Ray" from the DC Universe and the laser beam modified by the "Phoenix Force".
Both abilities are among the top-tier powers in their respective worlds. When they collided, they immediately caused a violent explosion. The flames were a bright, scarlet sphere, dazzlingly bright, as if another star had appeared between the sun and the earth.
Iron Man, just as he was about to be saved by the suddenly appearing Connors, found himself right in the center of an explosion of two forces before he could even catch his breath.
Just when he thought he was doomed no matter what, his vision suddenly blurred, and the environment around him, which was half inside the Anti-Phoenix armor, spun like a kaleidoscope, making Tony dizzy.
When he regained his sight, he found himself standing on the surface of the moon, his body free of wounds and not even a speck of dust.
"Some people think that after being possessed by the 'Phoenix,' they become invincible, but I think he's a bit too young and doesn't know his own limitations."
"What do you think, Scott?"
One of the rewards for watching the spectacle was used by Connors, who used the Phoenix Flame that was burning the four mutants to strip them from their bodies.
The "Black Smoke Cloak" rose up behind Connors and unleashed a ferocious maw, swallowing the flames in a single gulp.
The "healing magic" enveloped everyone present, transferring their burns, fractures, baldness, melting, and other injuries to Connors. The next second, he returned to normal, while the Avengers and mutants were completely unharmed.
Even their burnt-out clothes were given to them by Connors using "reality distortion" to cover them with a new one.
"You can actually control flames?"
"Cyclops" Scott glanced at Connors, whom he thought was dead, with some surprise.
Although this guy displayed great strength as soon as he appeared, and was even able to control the "Phoenix Fire", Scott was not afraid.
The Phoenix Fire is not just pure flame; it encompasses almost everything, such as creation or destruction.
"Cyclops" Scott saw Connors manipulating flames without fear, because he intended to use the "Destruction" that the "Phoenix Force" could control.
The flames on his body continued to rise, but their color gradually changed to blackish-purple, as if he was moving towards the "Dark Phoenix" form from the comics.
Behind him unfolded a pair of enormous, fiery wings that could blot out the sky, with the patterns of each feather clearly visible, as if they had transformed from nothingness into reality.
The red phoenix emblem on his chest, with its wings outstretched, seemed to come alive, its color changing from bright red to scarlet.
The flames, which are normally plasma, appeared viscous on Cyclops Scott's body, dripping down in droplets.
The lunar soil was continuously burned, creating vertical holes that made it look like a human-shaped piece of asphalt.
Connors stood before Namor, the White Queen, Colossus, and Magik, watching as "Cyclops" Scott transformed into "Dark Phoenix."
He wasn't afraid; he could sense that the other party was about to unleash "destructive" power.
Dealing with this kind of "destruction" is simple; you only need one thing.
Connors immersed himself in the mystery room and retrieved the "Active Life Equation" that he had used to fight Darkseid.
"Destruction, is it?" Connors looked at Scott with a smile. "Then we'll deal with it with 'creation.'"
The green vortex-shaped "Active Life Equation" spun in Connors' hand. He tossed it above his head, and the green vortex expanded, with spiraling arms protecting everyone, including himself.
The blackish-purple flames spread out in a sticky, gooey manner, requiring no medium, which looked somewhat eerie. Connors guessed that this thing was using "space" as fuel.
"Active Life Equation" can only protect; in terms of offensive capabilities, it is far less powerful than "Anti-Life Equation," which drives people crazy just by hearing about it. However, Connors doesn't need it to attack; he has other abilities to perform these tasks.
The "Black Smoke Cloak" rose up once more from behind Connors, its form resembling that of a demon.
With its mouth wide open, it swallowed the "Black Phoenix" flames whole, and then followed the trail of the flames, swallowing "Cyclops" Scott with its mouth still open.
From Scott's perspective, he had no time to react; he only felt that the "Phoenix Force," which he had clearly taken complete control of, was being gradually stripped away and disappearing from his body.
Scott began to panic. He reached out to grab the flames, but they reverted to their plasma form after being detached from his "Phoenix Force," no longer as viscous as asphalt.
Captain America and the others watched in stunned silence; this scene was almost beyond their comprehension.
They knew Connors was strong, but they didn't know he was this strong. The incredibly powerful "Phoenix" could be swallowed whole without a second thought, and the "Laser Eyes" that swept through the crowd had no chance to resist him.
"Magical" breathed a sigh of relief the moment Connors appeared. She had been secretly annoyed that Connors had been dawdling in Limbo and hadn't come out yet.
But now it seems that this is clearly due to a certain degree of confidence in their own strength, and they are not worried at all that things on the moon will get out of control, which is why they are so relaxed.
Namor had even prepared himself to die a heroic death, but Connors' appearance pulled him back from the brink of death. Namor, being straightforward, simply clasped his hands in a fist salute to Connors.
"Namor can't say those cheesy things, but from now on, the entire Atlantis will go through fire and water for you."
"Colossus" watched Connors employ a variety of methods, and sighed deeply:
"Eric was right about him. He truly deserves the title of 'Omega' level. No, he's far more powerful than Omega level, more powerful than I can even imagine."
After exclaiming for a few moments, Colossus suddenly felt that something was missing. He turned and looked around, muttering to himself in confusion:
"I remember Hope was brought to the moon by Magneto, where did he go?"
Scratching his head, Colossus turned his attention back to Connors and Scott, deciding not to dwell on it.
The "White Queen," draped in clothes conjured by Connors using "Reality Warp," peeked out from behind the tall "Gryphon" clad in magical armor, watching Connors unleash his power with rapt attention.
"Hope, prepare to accept the power you deserve."
After Connors used the "Black Smoke Cloak" to absorb all the Phoenix Force, he called out to Hope.
His strength doesn't need "Phoenix" to further enhance it, but if this power is given to Hope, who is best able to control it, the girl will inevitably grow into one of his powerful assistants.
Hope nodded. She remembered Connors telling her that he would help her take complete control of the "Phoenix".
She had never witnessed Connors's strength firsthand before and thought he was just bragging, but now it was different. She believed that Connors, who could treat the "Phoenix" as nothing, could actually do it.
The black smoke cloak danced behind Connors, spraying the swallowed phoenix flames toward Hope.
As she gasped for breath, Hope's long orange-red hair transformed into real flames, her eyes shone brightly, and her gold and green battle suit turned into gold and red, symbolizing that she had truly become the host of the "Phoenix".
"You're just a naive little girl; you're not qualified to control it!"
"Cyclops" Scott rushed over like a madman, his crimson beams shooting towards Hope.
Hope's body slowly floated up. Unlike Scott, who had previously controlled one-fifth of the Phoenix Force, she now controlled the entire Phoenix Force.
Looking down at "Cyclops" Scott, who stood impotently furious on the lunar surface, Hope's face revealed a hint of detachment:
"I'm no longer that little girl; you know I'm the embodiment of fire and life."
"I am a phoenix!"
