The only player in the Marvel universe.

Chapter 415 Hal is still on his way

"Attention all units, open fire immediately!"

The commander suppressed his shock and quickly issued the order.

Although nuclear weapons have no effect on parallax monsters, they can't just stand by and watch. They have to at least make a show of it, provide some emotional support, and let the public know that they have indeed made an effort.

All departments responded quickly, and the radar locked on immediately.

The next moment, missiles shot out of the sky, trailing blazing white flames as they soared into the high altitude.

Rumble—!

The entire sky above the seaside city was instantly lit up.

The explosions continued, and flames burst open one after another in mid-air, piling up layer upon layer on the Parallax monster's massive body. Thick smoke and flames enveloped half of the Parallax monster's body.

The entire sky looked as if it were on fire, and even the black fog was tinged with a dark red color when viewed from the ground.

Having been overshadowed by superheroes so many times, the military is really going all out this time to avoid being relegated to the background.

Regardless of its power, this wave certainly delivered a powerful visual impact.

However, despite all the firepower poured in, the black mist on Parallax only distorted slightly a few times, like ripples on water after a stone is thrown in, before returning to its original state in the blink of an eye.

The Parallax monster ignored the barrage of artillery fire and continued to press its massive body down toward the ground.

The people below finally realized something was wrong.

Just like NPCs in a game who have triggered an escape mechanism, they screamed and scattered across the streets, pushing and shoving each other, crowding together.

In an instant, the entire street descended into chaos.

Parallax sensed the fear spreading wildly below. The black mist condensed into a round, bulging head, and its yellow pupils swept over the humans fleeing like ants below, a hint of pleasure flashing in its eyes.

"Yes, that's it. More fear, your fear is my best nourishment."

As soon as the words fell, a large swath of black mist surged out from beneath it, condensing into countless enormous, mist-like tentacles that suddenly swooped down from the sky, covering the ground and preparing to engulf everyone and reap even more fear.

Just then, a cloud of yellow sand surged up from the ground, instantly transforming into a huge protective shield that completely covered the entire city.

The black mist tentacles slammed into the sand curtain with a dull thud, and sand fragments fell down, but the sand barrier remained unmoved.

"Um?"

Parallax paused slightly and looked down at the sky.

Beneath the swirling yellow sand barrier, a figure clad in silver-blue armor crossed his arms and slowly ascended into the air, stepping on the surging sand.

The man had a small gourd hanging from his waist. The gourd's mouth was wide open, and a torrent of yellow sand gushed out from it, seemingly endless.

[Item: Sand Gourd (can store a large amount of sand; scaled down from the original for easier portability)]

"Another good container."

Parallax's eyes suddenly brightened.

It felt it had come to the right place; the life on this planet was truly exceptional, and every single one it encountered was a top-notch talent.

Du Mu ascended to the front of the Parallax Monster's large head and shouted, "Parallax Monster, I'm here to negotiate!"

"Human, what do you want to talk about?"

The parallax monster's voice pressed in from all directions, deep and resonant.

However, Du Mu got far too close.

Parallax's head was ridiculously large, and the distance between its two eyes was limited. Du Mu happened to be suspended right in the middle of its eyes, so Parallax had to squeeze its two yellow eyes together to see him clearly.

Parallax Monster: (0—)

Du Mu easily held back his laughter and shouted at the parallax monster, "Give me some face and leave Earth. The universe is so vast, there are countless planets. Why insist on fighting Earth to the death? Wouldn't it be better to explore somewhere else?"

"If you really can't find a good place to go, I'll recommend a good place to you, like Apokolips."

That's what he said, but he didn't really expect Parallax to agree.

He said that purely to stall Parallax, giving Barry and Clark below enough time to move the crowd, so as not to keep providing emotional value to Parallax.

Parallax ignored Du Mu's last words and sneered, "Blame that Green Lantern. He inherited Abinsu's ring, and Abinsu is my enemy. He's the one who sealed me away for so many years. As his successor, that Green Lantern must pay the price."

Du Mu chimed in, "Then you've come to the wrong place. He's already run away and is hiding at the Green Lantern Corps' headquarters. If you want to find him, you'd be better off going to Oa Star."

"Then I'll destroy his home planet first, and he'll come back on his own."

Parallax monsters aren't stupid.

It has just broken free from Abinsu's seal and is currently at its weakest. If it were to directly attack the Green Lantern Corps' headquarters at this time, it would face an attack from thousands of Green Lanterns and might even be sealed back in.

Parallax, as the embodiment of fear, can ignore physical attacks, but the Green Lantern Ring, being an emotional force, has a natural restraining effect on it, which is why Abinsu was able to seal it away.

Rather than taking risks, it's better to develop our resources on this planet first.

The Earth's dense population and pervasive fear make it a natural breeding ground for such creatures.

Once I've absorbed enough fear and returned to my peak condition, it won't be too late to crush Ou A Xing then.

Du Mu squinted: "Then there's nothing to talk about."

Parallax's eyes gleamed with undisguised contempt: "You think you're worthy to talk to me? Your Green Lanterns are all gone. No one on this planet can stop me now. All life on this planet will become my nourishment!"

After saying that, Parallax burst into laughter, the sound like muffled thunder rolling across the sky, making people's eardrums vibrate.

Du Mu manipulated the sand, condensing it into a giant finger, and stabbed it directly into the throat of the Parallax Monster as it opened its mouth wide.

"Hahahaha...YUE!"

Parallax gagged, quickly spitting out his finger and roaring, "Bastard! Hand over your fear and make it my food!"

It opened its mouth wide and sucked hard in Du Mu's direction, trying to devour the fear on Du Mu's body.

But the next second, the parallax monster froze, exclaiming in surprise, "How is this possible! How can you not feel fear!?"

It was utterly shocked, for Du Mu showed not a trace of fear.

It's important to understand that even the most determined person has some degree of fear deep down.

These fears come from various sources, perhaps from a childhood trauma, an instinctive retreat from a powerful enemy, or the panic when something precious is threatened.

Even someone as powerful as Clark has the fear of losing control of his power.

But the human in front of me was completely clean inside, without a trace of fear.

This is the first time the Parallax Monster has encountered such a situation.

Parallax Monster, of course, would never know that Du Mu is a player known as the Fourth Calamity.

This group can be described as the most unscrupulous existence in the world.

As long as the game code allows it, there's nothing they wouldn't dare to do, so how could they possibly have feelings of fear?

Of course, except for some cyber-geeks who are utterly pathetic.

Du Mu chuckled and said, "Who said that? What I'm most afraid of is the long-legged beauty with white hair, red eyes, and beast ears, Ultraman Tiga. You absolutely mustn't let me see that, or I'll be scared to death."

Parallax Monster:

"

Are you making a wish here?

"When death comes, I don't believe you won't be afraid!"

Parallax's tone was filled with murderous intent.

A fearless person is essentially their own nemesis.

It doesn't allow such an awesome existence to exist in this world!

The Parallax Monster roared and urged the black mist to surge wildly, forming a vast expanse of misty tentacles that rushed towards Du Mu, blotting out the sky and the sun.

Du Mu raised his finger, and the yellow sand beneath him instantly rose up, transforming into thick, sharp cones that met the surging black mist tentacles head-on, blasting them into fragments.

The sand spikes continued their momentum, ramming into the Parallax monster's body and blasting out countless holes.

But soon, the black mist churned and regrouped, and the blasted gaps quickly healed.

Parallax is the embodiment of fear, and as long as fear exists in the universe, it will be immortal.

No wonder Abinsu could only seal away Parallax.

The parallax monster opened its huge mouth, and a massive yellow energy ball rapidly condensed inside, which it then spat out at Du Mu.

Hoo-tui!

Du Mu drew the Spear of Longinus, swept it horizontally, and shattered the incoming energy ball.

The burst of yellow light, carrying the essence of fear, spread outwards, attempting to influence Du Mu's mind.

However, Du Mu is not Clark; this fear is no match for his hundreds of points of mental attributes.

"I don't believe you can block them all."

Parallax snorted coldly, and its enormous head suddenly split open, turning into countless smaller heads.

The black mist was densely packed with hideous faces, and countless tentacles wriggled around them. The scene was so dense and chaotic that it made one's scalp tingle.

The next moment, yellow fear energy gathered in the mouths of each head, and hundreds of lights lit up simultaneously in the dark mist, illuminating the entire sky and creating a spectacular sight.

"This parallax monster was definitely nerfed in the movie."

"1

Du Mu's lips twitched slightly when he saw this.

The parallax monster's behavior was completely different from what Wade had initially described.

The Parallax monster in the movie could easily defeat even a newbie like Howl, and after a battle, his clothes were only slightly dirty.

But the Parallax Demon in front of us is clearly several levels stronger than the one in the movie version.

But thinking about it, the reason is obvious.

It's estimated that the budget was all drained by the protagonist Howl's costume, leaving no money for special effects for the final boss, Parallax. As a result, the final boss was extremely underwhelming and had to make a hasty exit after only a few minutes on screen.

Now, Parallax is no longer bound by budget constraints, becoming a true embodiment of terror, a far cry from its portrayal in the movies.

How could someone who could kill even the greatest Green Lantern, Abin Sue, be as weak as he is in the movies?

Without hesitation, Du Mu immediately took out a red flower with a pixelated style.

[Item: Flame Flower (After use, the user gains the ability to unleash a blazing fireball for a period of time. Don't worry, this fireball can burn people to death.)]

The flame flower instantly lit up, melted in Du Mu's hand, and directly merged into his body, with a layer of light and color emanating from his skin.

boom-!

Almost simultaneously, hundreds of yellow energy balls shot out at the same time, colliding and bombarding Du Mu in mid-air from different angles.

Du Mu did not dodge, but raised his right hand.

A dense mass of crimson flames suddenly surged from his body, churning and condensing into fireballs that crashed head-on into the yellow energy spheres in all directions.

The moment the fireball touched the yellow energy ball, the fireball melted right through it, and the exploding flames scattered everywhere, surging onto the parallax monster's massive body.

"Damn it, what the hell is this thing?!"

Parallax was both surprised and furious.

It discovered that the black mist on its body was being ignited by the flames. It wasn't just ordinary burning; it was burning away the fear energy that made up its body, and it began to spread as soon as it touched it.

Parallax hurriedly churned up black mist in an attempt to extinguish the flames on its body, but the black mist only made the flames burn brighter, showing no sign of going out.

This is no ordinary flame; it is hellfire, a fire capable of burning anything.

With the Hellfire skill and the Flame Flower effect combined, Du Mu's ability to control fire has reached a new level, allowing him to easily unleash large-scale AOE attacks.

Parallax acted decisively, quickly severing all the parts touched by the hellfire, thus stopping the hellfire from spreading further.

"asshole!"

Parallax was furious.

It had just broken free from Abinsu's seal, and its reserves of fear energy were already very low. Every bit less of it made it feel extremely distressed.

Parallax immediately changed tactics, releasing a large number of black, misty tentacles that spread out in all directions along the ground, bypassing the massive sand curtain, engulfing the humans on the outskirts, and frantically absorbing their fear.

Although it can absorb fear remotely, it is far less efficient than absorbing it directly.

Du Mu was helpless in this situation; he couldn't protect everyone, so he could only let them fend for themselves.

However, the other members of the Seven were not idle.

Their limited capabilities prevented them from reaching the main battlefield high in the sky, making them perfect for dealing with the black mist tentacles that had burrowed into the ground.

Bruce immediately released a large number of self-destructing drones, which quickly spread out a defensive line along the streets.

Whenever the black, misty tentacles try to get close to people, they simply crash into them and explode, cutting off the parallax monster's main route for absorbing fear.

Of course, only Bruce, a budget warrior, would dare to play like this; other poor guys can only obediently clear the misty tentacles manually.

Du Mu, high in the sky, did not stop either.

He took a deep breath, his chest gradually caved in, and the air in his abdomen was compressed to its limit.

Then he suddenly opened his mouth, and a scalding wave of air shot out from deep in his throat.

"Eat my Fireball Technique!"

Flames rapidly condensed in the air, expanding in the blink of an eye into a giant fireball hundreds of meters in diameter, which slammed down on the Parallax monster.

boom-!

The moment the giant fireball struck the Parallax monster's body, flames spread wildly along the surface of the black mist, sweeping in all directions.

In an instant, the entire sky turned into a sea of ​​fire, which was extremely shocking.

At this moment, Hal, the Green Lantern, is still on his way back to Earth.
