Chapter 344 The Black Widow in the Cage
The person who crashed onto the moon from space was Thor, one of the members who had been sent by Captain America to intercept the Phoenix in deep space.
Thor lay motionless, barely alive, in the crater he had created. Judging from the charred marks on his body and his almost bald head, they had already fought the Phoenix Force.
The stone man ran a few steps and rushed over to catch the unconscious Thor in his arms.
Just as he was about to say something, he turned around and saw Hope, who was next to Connors, engulfed in flames. At the same time, a bright orange-red phoenix-shaped flame, even more dazzling than the lightning brought by Thor, almost covered the entire moon sky.
The arrival of the "Phoenix Force" does not signify the end of the Avengers vs. Mutants event; rather, it marks the official climax of the event.
Without the slightest hesitation, both sides launched a frenzied charge towards Hope, hoping to reclaim her from their grasp.
"Iliana, did you successfully help your brother escape from the evil god Silastra?"
Connors used "telepathy" to ask "The Secret Guest".
"Mystic" Iliana nodded discreetly, flicking her right hand to summon a Soul Blade to meet "Black Widow":
"That's right, a great success. His soul is no longer enslaved by the evil god. But I don't understand why you want us to continue following 'Laser Eye'?"
With his strength greatly improved compared to before, the "Magician" is simply on a different level. Dealing with the "Black Widow," who is just a top agent, is not too easy for him.
Every move she casually makes requires Natasha, the "Black Widow," to exert all her strength to defend against, and even then, she cannot withstand it.
Although she couldn't win, she still had to say something tough. Black Widow pointed the electric device on her wrist at Magik Iliana, her hands posing at different heights:
"Iliana Rasputin, surrender. Things didn't have to come to this."
This scene made Iliana, the "Ghost," want to laugh:
"No way, you really want to challenge me?"
Not to mention that after being upgraded by Connors, her strength was comparable to that of the "Celestials," she was already the queen of Limbo, one of the "Omega-level" mutants, and could be considered a strategic-level powerhouse.
Even if she stood still, Black Widow wouldn't be able to defeat her. After all, one was close to being a god, while the other, no matter how skilled in fighting, was just a mortal.
"Then come on, let me show you my strength, so you'll give up on that idea."
As Iliana spoke, she opened a portal, and a golden disc rose rapidly from beneath her and "Black Widow's" feet, disappearing wherever the disc passed.
In the blink of an eye, the two had traveled from the moon to a mysterious country called Hell's Border.
The blue, purple, and green flames that Connors experienced when he first arrived at the border of hell reappeared, forming a huge cage that imprisoned "Black Widow" inside.
As soon as Iliana, the "Ghost," thought, hideous monsters crawled out of the flames, crouching low and staring menacingly at the "Black Widow."
"Enjoy your time on the frontier, Miss Romanov," Magik said mockingly to Black Widow.
The Black Widow remained silent, trying to get as close as possible to the edge of the fiery cage while avoiding being burned by the flames, and also trying to figure out a way to deal with the monsters inside.

The sound of pistols being cocked rang out, and Natasha, holding a pistol in each hand, began firing at the monsters, each bullet hitting their eyes, joints, and other vital areas.
"Hellish life is nothing new to me, kid."
With a series of shots, Black Widow dispatched the monsters in the cage one by one, then aimed her gun at "Ghost" Iliana from afar.
"Only the 'Red House' was true hell for me. Do you know what happened afterward?"
"I killed everyone there."
"The Secret Agent" dismissed the top agent's words:
"As an agent, you should know my capabilities inside and out, and you should know that this is the border of hell, and I am the master here."
boom!
Black Widow's bullets flew without hesitation toward Iliana, but Magik simply stood still, letting the bullets hit his forehead before falling to the ground with a thud.
"Things are different now. My strength has increased a thousandfold. Put away your tricks, Natasha."
"The Secret Guest" looked at Natasha in the fiery cage with a half-smile and said.
"Let me think about it." Black Widow frowned. "Although the information about your strength in the Avengers is wrong, the information about your personality is very accurate."
Her words made "Secret Guest" frown as well.
"Illana, the 'Ghost,' was kidnapped by a demon to the border of hell during her childhood. Since then, she has habitually treated everyone with indifference and mockery, but she once bravely ventured into the border of hell to confront her inner demons for the sake of her teammates."
"You wouldn't do something like imprisoning me and making me suffer the torment of monsters on the border of hell. This is different from your usual personality."
"So, my guess is that you imprisoned me in this cage of fire to prevent me from continuing my involvement in the struggle for Hope?"
Natasha stared intently at Iliana:
"If you really have the strength you claim to have, which is a hundred times greater than before, you wouldn't need to lock me up at the border of hell; you could defeat me on the spot."
"Secret Guest" Iliana's expression was slightly cold as she said disdainfully:
"As expected of 'Black Widow,' she may not be strong enough, but her mind works incredibly fast."
"I also suspect that you brought me to the edge of hell to avoid showing off your superior strength in front of other mutants. You even chose me as your opponent for the same reason, right?" Black Widow continued to speculate.
She seemed very confident in her prediction, and even sat down in the fiery cage, throwing both pistols aside.
"Mystery" Iliana remained silent, worried that if she said a few more words, even the "Black Widow" would guess what color underwear she was wearing.
Based on the idea that saying more would lead to more mistakes, and saying nothing would be better, "Mike" simply chose to keep quiet.
Unlike the two women in Limbo who are scheming against each other in a peaceful atmosphere, the "White Queen" on the surface of the moon is quite helpless at this moment.
Her adversary is "Hawkeye," a top-notch agent with exceptional agility, much like "Black Widow."
The White Queen's two abilities, telepathy and diamondization, cannot be used simultaneously. Faced with arrows shot from Hawkeye at various tricky angles, she can only remain in diamondization and cannot find an opportunity to use telepathy to control her opponent.
However, Hawkeye was intentionally or unintentionally trying to shift the battle location of the two towards the Hulk vs. Colossus area. Although the White Queen's body was tough, her strength was no match for these two monsters, so she could only try to avoid them.
