American comics: From Hogwarts to God on Earth

Chapter 520 Enhanced Animagus

Rune did not choose to prevent the coming of the First Fallen—in fact, he could not prevent it either, but don't misunderstand, this does not mean that Rune is weaker than the First Fallen who have not yet become Satan, but rather because of that artifact.

Rune firmly believes that he will surpass God in the future, but he is still unable to confront Him directly now. Therefore, the Spear of Longinus, which once killed God, is definitely not something Rune can shake.

The true form of the fallen one squeezed into the dream realm, and his very arrival was a form of contamination.

The monsters emanating from the nightmares faded and peeled away instantly before the Fallen One, turning into nothingness and ashes. Beneath his feet, the dream world that had once been able to change according to Rune's will began to solidify and harden, and cracks resembling the scorched earth of hell appeared, emanating a strong sulfurous smell.

At the same time, a silent shriek echoed around—like the background noise of billions of fallen souls' vomiting words. In terms of entrance effects, Rune would give the First Fallen a perfect score.

Neither Brainiac nor Thanos had the spectacular entrance effects of this Fallen One. His entrance was so spectacular that Rune couldn't help but applaud.

This made the newly fallen one frown. He had considered many possible reactions from the rune: fear, panic, bluffing, or even outright escape.

But he never expected that Rune would actually applaud him.

Seemingly sensing the Fallen One's confusion, Rune smiled and said, "Don't be so surprised. I already knew about your reactions after the three holy sites deployed their protective shields, especially yours, Fallen One. You certainly didn't disappoint me."

In fact, Rune even anticipated that the guy who was causing him trouble was most likely a First Fallen.

As he spoke, Rune arched his body, undergoing a dramatic transformation. The surrounding air trembled and dimmed due to his powerful dark magic, and the viscous, asphalt-like dark magic seeped from his pores, its texture rapidly transforming into distinct hairs.

Rune's bones emitted a sickening cracking sound, like rotten wood breaking and then reforming, and his body twisted between stretching and compression.

Clearly, the dark nature within this terrifying mage was shaping a vessel—a vessel large enough to contain his power. As time passed, his last remaining human feature, his beautiful eyes, blossomed anew on that enormous tiger's head.

However, their pupils shrank to two scarlet vertical lines, boiling with a terrifying and uncontrollable killing intent.

This is powerful magic from another universe, the pinnacle of transfiguration—the Animagus. This powerful magic was originally intended to transform a wizard into a non-magical being and grant the new form powerful magic resistance.

However, under the influence of Rune's powerful dark magic, this magic underwent a mysterious, profound, and indescribable change.

The tiger that Rune conjured was nearly as large as a Fallen One, its bulging muscles concealing explosive power, and its fur was far different from that of its kind, with strange, constantly writhing runes faintly visible among its black and white markings.

The mage abandoned his human form and powerful dark magic, transforming it into magical resistance and physical strength. Combined with his already terrifyingly powerful physique, even Rune himself was curious about the limits of his Animagus.

Previously, Rune's enemies were either not skilled in magic and could not fully utilize the abilities of the Animagus form, or they were too weak to be worth Rune using this new form.

But the First Fallen is different. He is powerful enough to be compared to Rune in his current state, and he is extremely skilled in magic, so he is worthy of Rune using such a powerful spell.

Roar!

Black Tiger roared loudly.

The newly fallen one was not to be outdone. He charged straight at the enormous tiger with a cold smile, "Becoming a beast won't stop your demise. This time, you're doomed!"

This is the third meeting between the Fallen Ones and Rune. The first two meetings ended in a draw, but things don't happen more than three times, and this time they are determined to settle the score.

However, the moment the two sides made contact, the Fallen One's face immediately turned ugly—he was pressed to the ground by a tremendous force, and the Fallen One lying on the ground could even vaguely make out the expression on the tiger's face.

Its face was full of mockery.

After Rune disappeared, an alarm sounded throughout the sanctuary; a large number of creatures were invading the sanctuary, unwilling to accept their fate.

It was subsequently excluded from this planet, so it is doing everything it can to prevent the protective shield from deploying.

The king's face turned grim. Although Rune had mentioned it beforehand, he had not expected that repeating the old story on another Earth would encounter such great resistance.

Left with no other choice, he had to turn his attention to the mages present.

"Please lend me your help; the safety of the Earth rests on your shoulders." The king solemnly bowed to the others.

However, the other sorcerers in the DC Universe thought they were just there to observe the ceremony, but they didn't expect to have to help Kamar-Taj complete the ritual. So they looked left and right, and none of them spoke first.

They don't have the same level of awareness as the Kamar-Taj mages. The vast majority of these mages are sophisticated egoists, and some of the powerful mages who can travel through dimensions don't even feel a sense of belonging to this Earth.

However, a small number of monks with a conscience did not dare to be the first to act at this time.

Granting the king's request would certainly mean they would have to pay a certain price for their spellcasting, but would refusing the king's request solve everything?

Behind the king and the Kamar-Taj mages stands the great god Rune! To refuse would be to go against Rune's will, wouldn't it? These mages still vividly remember the fate of those conservative mages!

Just as they were hesitating, Superman shouted first, "Leave it to me! As long as I'm here, no one can interrupt the barrier's deployment!"

There was something in his smile that resonated with all the DC Universe wizards present. Those wizards with a conscience immediately echoed his sentiments and began to display their abilities.

Inspired by these mages, other DC mages were also forced to make some efforts in the open. Although their source of magic changed to Vishanti or Cytorak, the way they used magic never changed.

However, because they would need to repay their debts in the future, these mages were somewhat hesitant to use their magic.

Superman's appeal surprised even Raven, but Barbara was not surprised at all. She was already used to seeing Superman's calls to action and how he always managed to inspire hope in everyone.

As long as Superman doesn't fall, no matter how desperate the opponent's strength is, the heroes can always rally and charge back. That's Superman. He's not so powerful that no one can defeat him, but he always believes in humanity more than humans themselves do.

So Barbara simply smiled at the raven and said, "He's dazzling, isn't he?"

Raven seemed lost in thought, but Barbara had already started cheering loudly along with Superman, and then charged towards the group of things that were completely unrecognizable, just like it had happened countless times before.
