Chapter 202: A New Ranking—The Nightmare Arrives!

X-Men World!

Unable to suppress the urgency any longer, Deadpool hurried into the bathroom and climbed into the ventilation shaft above.

Marvel EU World!

At ten o'clock that night, Strange left the hospital exhausted after performing surgeries for six consecutive hours.

He had originally planned to attend some kind of lecture Tony Stark was giving tonight about cosmic threats, but he decided to forget it.

Those matters were better left for superheroes to worry about.

After saying goodbye to Christine, he drove along Bank Street toward Minetta Street.

It was the shortest route home, one he had taken for three or four years.

However, before he was even halfway there, he saw that the road ahead had been sealed off.

Judging by the direction, a massive traffic jam had formed because of tonight's lecture.

"Fuck Stark. Good thing I didn't go."

Strange muttered before making a turn and taking another route.

The coastal road was somewhat longer, but at least there would not be any traffic.

A dozen minutes later, he broke free of the congested streets, and the road became clear.

Perhaps because of the lecture, there were fewer and fewer vehicles on the coastal highway.

After driving for a while longer, there was not even a single car in sight.

Strange did not find this suspicious.

He was currently thinking about frying a small veal steak when he returned home and deciding which bottle of red wine would pair best with it.

At that moment, two bright headlights appeared around a bend more than a hundred meters ahead.

It was a large truck.

Strange immediately reduced his speed.

Unsafe driving brought tears to loved ones, and as a responsible citizen, he possessed an excellent awareness of road safety!

Then...

In the next second, one of the truck's tires suddenly exploded with a loud bang, sending the vehicle directly toward him!

Strange violently turned the steering wheel in an attempt to evade it!

But another deafening explosion rang out as a second tire burst, changing the truck's direction and sending it toward him once again!

This time, it was already too late to dodge!

"Shit!"

Strange released the steering wheel with both hands and cursed loudly!

Bang!

With the third thunderous crash, Bumblebee was rammed off the road by Optimus Prime, rolling down the slope and crashing onto the beach below!

Screech—

The truck with the blown tires came to an eerily stable stop, and a bald woman climbed out of the driver's seat.

She raised a hand above her eyes and looked down toward the wreckage below, the corner of her mouth twitching.

As expected, beginners really should not drive large trucks.

One o'clock in the morning.

Tony returned home excitedly.

His hard work had not been wasted. Whether online or at the venue itself, the response to tonight's speech had been excellent!

Even those idiots at the Department of Defense had called and stated that they would support his artificial-intelligence defense plan!

That made everything much easier!

With both public opinion and the government supporting him, Nick Fury's objections would be meaningless!

Tony suddenly stopped walking.

He noticed that the light inside the first-floor bathroom was on.

Ever since Nick Fury had once ambushed him in the darkness, Tony always instructed JARVIS to turn on the living-room lights before he arrived home.

But that did not include the bathroom!

"So you like ambushing people, huh?"

Tony sneered.

He decided to give the intruder a memorable surprise!

Taking out his phone and switching it to camera mode, he approached the bathroom!

In the next second, he shoved open the door and rapidly began taking photographs!

But after fewer than two shots, the smile on his face completely froze.

The person in the photographs was not that bald pirate!

Instead...

It was an avocado!

Fuck!

Tony's heart jolted, but before he could curse, the person sitting on the toilet spoke coyly:

"How embarrassing. I didn't know you had this kind of fetish."

"If I had known, I would've gone to find Spider-Boy instead."

Tony almost vomited at the tone of his voice...

Fine.

It was actually his expression.

It was difficult to imagine how disturbing an avocado looked while acting shy.

"Who the hell are you!?"

Tony had already put away his phone and replaced it with the repulsor in his palm!

Hearing this, the man on the toilet immediately burst into laughter.

Then, under Tony's stunned gaze, he did not even bother using toilet paper. He simply grabbed the tights gathered around his ankles, pulled them up, put on his mask, and struck a handsome pose.

"I am... Uh..."

"The one blessed with intelligence and good looks... Uh..."

"Fuck, what was the rest of the line?"

"Hmm... Forget it!"

"I'm Deathstroke's cousin!"

"You can call me Lord Deadpool!"

Bang!

Tony flinched.

He had no idea why his repulsor had suddenly fired by itself.

When he looked up again, the avocado had turned into ketchup!

"Fuck!"

Seven days later!

Strange stared blankly out the window with saliva hanging from the corner of his mouth.

Outside, he saw a group of strangely dressed people wearing robes similar to those of monks practicing...

Magic!

Yes.

Actual magic!

Seven nights earlier, he had been knocked off a cliff by an irresponsible truck driver and happened to be rescued by a kindhearted woman passing nearby!

Even more unexpectedly, that woman was a sorcerer!

Admittedly, after everything revealed by the videos, he had become highly accepting of such things.

However, he currently had no intention of leaving.

Every finger on both hands had suffered comminuted fractures.

Although they had recovered considerably with the assistance of medicinal herbs, as one of the finest surgeons in the world, he knew the nerves inside could never be fully reconnected.

If injuries like these were not operated on immediately, not even he could repair them.

He did not blame the woman for failing to take him to a hospital.

After all, without her intervention, he would have died inside the car!

The reason he now refused to leave was that he had personally witnessed a paralyzed man stand again after practicing magic!

Wasn't that hope right before his eyes!?

His current concern was how to shamelessly remain here.

For example...

By pretending to be mentally disabled.

These kindhearted people surely would not drive him away!

Then he could openly steal their magical knowledge!

Inside a taller pavilion in the distance, Wong looked sympathetically at Strange.

When the Ancient One first carried the man back, nearly every bone in his body had been broken, and he had almost died.

In the end, they had been forced to use healing magic to save him.

Judging by his current expression, his brain had most likely been injured as well.

How tragic.

Ten days later.

DCEU World.

On an isolated island, Bruce and Clark lay on the beach beneath the sunlight.

This was one of Bruce's bases, making it suitable as a temporary headquarters.

Before long, a wave rose from the sea, and Arthur Curry emerged from the water.

Clark had been the one to find him.

After hearing that joining Bruce's group included free meals and a salary, he had agreed without the slightest hesitation.

The same was true of Barry Allen.

After Wonder Woman criticized his terrible understanding of history, the desperate Barry had also sought refuge with Batman.

Not long afterward, crimson lightning swept across the island as Barry arrived.

The group nodded to one another before sitting down and looking into the air.

A newly appeared screen was displaying a countdown!

00:00:01...

One second later, before the dark screen could even light up, a bone-chilling laugh echoed from within!

In the next moment, several distorted figures appeared upon it!

DC Dark Multiverse!

Fear Us! Dread Us!

The Dark Knights!
