Chapter 205: A Gathering of Heroes (3)
"Hiss..." The sound of Phantom inhaling cold air echoed in Peter's mind, and he asked her, "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing, maybe it's just my imagination. Why does the skull's power feel familiar?"
Just then, the chain cut through the night sky of New York and the flaming skull head drove a motorcycle, leaving a bright arc in the air.
The motorcycle landed on the rooftop, less than 200 meters from the building where Peter was. When he saw the fiery eyes of the skull, he felt like his soul was about to be sucked in.
"It's really him!" Phantom's surprised voice echoed in Peter's mind. "That's Mephisto's power! The lord of the hell dimension has arrived??? "
"Mephisto?" Peter said with some confusion. "I think I've heard my friend mention this name before, something about the lord of hell..."
"Mephisto is an extremely powerful dimensional demon. He is one of the best among all dimensional demons. His hell dimension burns with raging hellfire all year round. Any creature that dares to challenge him will be burned to ashes by the flames..."
As she spoke, Phantom's tone became somewhat doubtful. "How could Mephisto's apostle appear here? Could it be that Knull has already escaped? Did he make a deal with Mephisto?"
Then she muttered to herself, "This is not impossible. Mephisto likes to make deals with others. He has trading partners all over the universe. If that's the case, then it's troublesome. I must notify the universe's Agents immediately..."
"Wait!... Why are they fighting??"
With Phantom's shocked voice, the skull head waving the chain directly entangled Riot, who was shrouded in a black curtain, and looked at Riot's eyes with fiery eyes, saying, "You are guilty! Die!"
Riot obviously didn't expect that an uninvited guest would appear during the process of unleashing his power, but this didn't interrupt his actions. He muttered, "The great creator is about to descend, and the world will eventually be engulfed by chaos and darkness..."
"That skull head is actually on our side??? Unfortunately, he is only Mephisto's apostle, and it seems that he cannot interrupt Knull's power from descending. It looks like I have to call for backup..."
"Boom!!!"
The sound of the earth shaking came, and Peter turned his head to see a huge figure jumping into the battlefield amidst a cloud of dust in the distance. He was covered in bulging muscles, extremely strong, and more importantly, his whole body was bright red.
"Wait? This is Cyttorak's power? He is the apostle of the lord of the deep red dimension???"
Phantom's tone was somewhat overwhelmed. "Why did Cyttorak come too? Mephisto, Cyttorak, who's next? Dormammu? Sise-Neg?"
"What's going on??? Are the gods having a meeting???"
Before she finished her sentence, another black mist surged in the distance. Peter turned his head again, and a figure floated in the endless black mist. With the darkness fleeting, Mordo landed on the ground, his voice cold and low, echoing in everyone's ears, "I am here on behalf of the lord of the dark dimension, Dormammu..."
Strange and Phantom said together, "Dormammu?!"
"Mordo! Are you crazy?!" A mage behind Strange shouted, "You actually betrayed the Supreme Sorcerer and joined Dormammu?!"
Mordo's face was not too good either. He looked at Strange expressionlessly and said, "Dormammu asked me to ask you why the phone at the Sanctum Sanctorum cannot be reached. His... his..."
Mordo struggled for a long time, as if he didn't know how to say that word, but Strange understood it. "The return rate, right? We have already talked about 7.2 before. To be honest, this is already our bottom line. Even if he makes harassing calls again, we cannot compromise..."
Then he came back to his senses and looked at Mordo, saying, "Wait, how did you become Dormammu's apostle? Aren't you afraid of the teacher getting angry?"
In the Stark Tower Laboratory, as soon as Peter landed, Phantom said to him, "We have to keep an eye on Riot! If the Knull force really comes, I'll immediately call for support from the Cosmic Agents!"
"Trust me, there is something more important than keeping an eye on him right now."
Just as Phantom was about to retort, Schiller walked out of the preparation room of the laboratory and patted Peter's shoulder. Peter heard Phantom make a sound of "Huh???" and then the symbiote fell silent. Peter asked her, "What's wrong? Are you angry? Okay, I'll finish things here as soon as possible, and then we'll go to the battlefield..."
"No, it's okay. Let's stay here for now."
Peter was confused, and Dr. Connors walked out with a strange-looking object in his hand.
The object looked like two pyramids, one positive and one negative, with a sphere in the middle, and the sphere was still emitting a faint light.
Peter went over and stared at the object and said, "Is this the finished product? It's much smaller than I imagined, after all, this is the result of our efforts during this period of time..."
Connor waved his hand and threw the polyhedron to Peter, who eagerly caught it and said, "Are you guys thinking of making me..."
"Who else but you? Do you think anyone else would accept it if we handed it to them?" replied the others.
"Well, but you guys promised..." Peter looked at the object in his hand, and Phantom couldn't help but exclaim, "Where did you humans get such refined magical energy? Aren't you a mechanical civilization?"
"I don't know, but they call this thing 'deposit'," replied Schiller.
Schiller said to the two of them, "You two will have to complete the rest of the work. I have other matters to attend to."
Connor took out an injection syringe and gestured to his own arm. He told Peter, "You will have to complete the rest of the work. I have things to do as well."
Phantom also told Peter, "You will have to complete the rest of the work. I have other matters to attend to."
"Hey, wait! I can understand him, but where are you going? Aren't you a symbiote?" asked Peter.
Before Peter could finish speaking, the purple color on his Spider-Man suit faded away and returned to its original red and blue colors, and the purple slime disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Peter wasn't one to force others, so he just sighed with regret and continued with his experiments.
Outside the laboratory door, Schiller held a glass jar and collected the purple slime that had jumped in. He extended a finger to allow Phantom to touch his body, and as soon as their connection was established, Phantom exclaimed, "You're here!!! Do you know that all the symbiotes in the universe are looking for you???!!"
"I don't know, and I don't want to know," replied Grey Mist.
"How did you end up on Earth? You...never mind, you better hide quickly. Knull's power is about to come, and if he finds you, it will be bad," said Phantom, speaking rapidly.
"Although we no longer recognize Knull as our creator and leader, it was he who created symbiotes. Even if he can no longer directly control symbiotes, once his power arrives, he will definitely feel your presence."
"No matter how you ended up here, he has always hoped that the new symbiotes could help him escape from that prison. If he really wants to catch you, even the agents of the universe can't help you."
"I'm sorry, my fellow symbiote. I can't help you. After the division of the universe agents, there is no longer any strength to form a large army to resist Knull. Once he truly escapes, the universe will face the disaster of chaos invasion."
The voice of the woman contained sadness. "Child, while you still have time, run away."
