Chapter 355 Commanding the Gods
"You're courting death!"
Seemingly quite confident in his current strength, Magneto Erik didn't go to great lengths to manipulate the moon's magnetic field, but instead chose to confront these relentless pursuers head-on in a direct battle.
Whether it's Captain America, with his exceptional fighting skills, or Hulk, whose physical abilities far surpass those of everyone else present, "Magneto" Erik remains completely unfazed.
Eric used his fire and magnetic field abilities perfectly, throwing the superheroes who rushed at him away. But even when they were thrown away, as long as their injuries were not fatal, these superheroes seemed to feel no pain, like moths to a flame, as if they intended to extinguish the phoenix fire with their own blood.
"You cannot comprehend the power I possess now. You are nothing but a bunch of narrow-minded ants, you—"
Eric's words caught in his throat halfway through. He sensed a power above the moon that resonated with the "divine power" within him, and the immense pressure nearly made him gasp for breath.
He looked up and saw that around the moon, the celestial beings, some over a thousand meters tall, were distributed like spectators in the Roman Colosseum.
The Celestials remained completely still, just as they had been when they last visited Earth, but Magneto Erik still felt like he was being watched.
"What are they doing here—?"
Eric's gaze searched among the thousands of Celestials, and finally, in an inconspicuous corner, he spotted the Celestial whose power he had stolen.
"Is this grand-scale trip to the moon an attempt to reclaim their lost power?"
Eric's burning phoenix wings billowed, his eyes blazing with fighting spirit.
"Come on, let me see what kind of abilities you so-called gods really have!"
"What use is power if you possess it but don't use it to create a truly equal and uncontroversial world?"
With a thunderous roar, flames erupted from Magneto Erik's body, shooting high into the sky and blasting Captain America, who was about to strangle him, away.
Then flames erupted from beneath Eric's feet, and he charged toward the Celestials.
"You guys are pretty efficient. Are all the 'observers' here?"
Connors had once again transcended the real dimension to speak with the Celestials, reaching out to accept a blue cube.
According to the Celestials, this thing contains all the "Observers" they have captured in the universe.
Casually stuffing the object, which resembled a "cosmic cube," into the mysterious house, Connors glanced around. One of the rewards for watching the spectacle, "Photosynthesis," came with a super-powerful mind that had already counted the exact number of Celestials:
"One thousand two hundred and sixty-five? Has the entire Celestials of the universe come? Sending an 'Observer' shouldn't require everyone to be here. What are you planning to do?"
Seeing that the Celestials remained silent, Connors pondered for a moment and then understood:
"Are you afraid I won't keep my word? Afraid I'll make your efforts go to waste? So you all came here hoping to give me a scare?"
Whether these Celestials are genuinely naive or simply straightforward, they at least expressed certainty despite Connors's suspicions.
"I don't have many ways to express my sincerity, but you don't have a choice either."
Connors' tone was half-threatening; he knew these Celestials had no choice.
"Even if all of you combined could kill me, you would still suffer heavy casualties, and in the future, you would be even more powerless to resist the 'anti-surveillance agents.'"
"All you can do is trust me, because I've always aimed to become stronger by fighting against the 'Anti-Monitors.'"
Connors laid out the stakes involved, and now it was up to these Celestials to decide.
In fact, they didn't have many choices. The fact that they personally handed over the Cosmic Cube, which imprisoned the entire "Observer" race, already showed their attitude.
Connors has always dealt a heavy blow to his enemies, but the "Celestials" have not shown any hostility towards him so far.
While he was leisurely enjoying his melon on Earth, Weiwei had already gone to space to do his work for him.
The Celestials remained silent for a moment. Unlike the superheroes on Earth who still didn't know just how powerful Connors was, the Celestials knew very well.
The fact that Connors can communicate directly in their language, rather than having them learn human language, implies that Connors's strength is no less than theirs.
After one of the Celestials taught Connors how to use the Tesseract, they immediately ascended to prepare to depart.
Connors, filled with delight, immersed himself in the mystery of the house, preparing to unleash the "black smoke" to engulf the observer, when suddenly someone shouted:
"Stop!"
The person who shouted was "Magneto" Erik.
While Connors was threatening the Celestials in a dimension beyond reality, Magneto on the lunar surface was simultaneously challenging the Celestial from whom he had stolen some of his power.
Unfortunately, neither Connors nor the Celestials paid attention to his ambitious challenge declaration. Connors had his own things to do, and the Celestials were prepared to leave.
Impatient Magneto then let out a loud roar in an attempt to attract the Celestials' attention.
Having already mastered the "Phoenix Power," he flapped his enormous fiery wings, causing the flames to spread and burn directly in the vacuum, blazing towards the Celestials.
The Celestials stopped when they heard the noise.
They first glanced at Phoenix Fire, then at Erik the Magneto who seemed to be about to challenge them, and finally fixed their gaze on Connors.
One of the celestial beings asked:
"Is this your subordinate? We will cooperate with you, but please do not send people like this to insult us. If it were a pure 'Phoenix,' it might be able to threaten us, but he is far from that level."
Since "Magneto" Eric was shouting in the real dimension, the Celestials also spoke for the first time in the real dimension.
It's unclear what method they used, but somehow their sound was able to travel through a vacuum to the artificial environment on the lunar surface.
The language they used was not a specific language on Earth, but rather a sentence was spoken simultaneously in almost every language Connors could name.
Most of the Avengers and mutants had suffered burns of varying degrees. They were either lying on the ground or sprawled out, unable to move due to the immense pressure created by the arrival of the Celestials.
The voices of the Celestials came from above. Just as they were wondering who these Celestials were talking to, they saw Connors step forward:
"Hey you, the one standing in the very corner."
Connors pointed to a Celestial in an inconspicuous corner among the countless Celestials, the very group that had first arrived on Earth:
"Magneto stole a portion of your power, and I want you to take it back."
The superheroes looked at each other, and Captain America's brow was furrowed deeper than anyone else's:
"Is he giving orders to these gods?"
The White Queen looked up blankly, only to see the Celestials, whom Connors had pointed to, obediently stepping forward. They reached out and grabbed Magneto as easily as catching a chick.
