Chapter 422 Fusion of the Doomsday Bloodline

Rune was brainstorming while performing the ritual magic for bloodline fusion.

In this operation, he only selected the flesh and blood of Doomsday. He could have obtained Zanza's blood, but Rune ultimately abandoned that idea.

Alexander Luthor's abilities are heritable, and his children with the Super Queen were even enhanced.

The baby was even able to absorb the opponent's superpowers without killing them, which made the baby Darkseid.

Darkseid's existence was so important that Dr. Manhattan was even willing to appear in advance to stop Rune's reckless behavior.

Alexander Luther's abilities sound incredibly powerful, but this ability has a major flaw—it can even completely replicate the weaknesses of the person being absorbed.

For example, if Earth-3 Luthor defeats the previous Zamza, he will gain the power of the device, but he will also gain its weakness.

Like Shazam, if Zazam shouts the transformation phrase again, he will turn into an ordinary person. Luthor was captured by the Crime Syndicate after being caught by the Queen of Superman's Lasso of Obedience and forced to say "Zazam".

Before Earth's third loser got bound by the lasso, he probably thought the Queen of Supergirl was playing a alphabet game with him!

Similarly, if this Luther killed Martian Manhunter, he would also gain Martian Manhunter's weakness to fire, so Rune ultimately chose to give up obtaining this Luther's abilities.

There are so many ways to become stronger, why use a bloodline with such terrible side effects?

Doomsday's blood, however, was a pleasant surprise. The Doomsday in the main universe is not the weakling in the cinematic universe; he is not only immune to Kryptonite, but can even withstand the Omega Rays from a relatively weak Darkseid clone head-on.

In fact, there is another person in the Marvel Universe whose abilities are somewhat similar to Doomsday's. That superhero is named Darwin.

Darwin was a mutant whose ability was to automatically mutate and adapt to the external environment. However, his strength was somewhat weaker than Doomsday's, and sometimes, his body would take shortcuts during evolution.

For example, in the comics, he once fought the Hulk, and in the end, Darwin evolved the ability to teleport and simply ran away because his body thought that evolving the ability to teleport was much simpler than evolving the ability to fight the Hulk head-on.

Darwin also appeared in the movie, but his performance was even worse. He was unable to withstand the energy attack of the shockwave and was instantly reduced to ashes and died.

Nevertheless, Darwin's abilities were still quite extraordinary. For example, under certain circumstances, Darwin was even able to evolve into an energy being.

Therefore, Rune once tried to get his hands on Darwin, but unfortunately, Darwin did not exist in the Marvel universe he traveled to.

The bloodline fusion potion for Doomsday was quickly prepared. This potion, made with ritual magic, emitted a black-red and silver-white light, looking both beautiful and dangerous.

Rune picked up the potion and felt as if he were holding not a potion, but a sun, its heat constantly scorching his palms.

They're quite mischievous.

With that thought in mind, Rune drank the potion in one gulp.

In that instant, Rune realized something was wrong. He felt as if he had drunk not a potion, but a rushing river of lava.

The overwhelming pain caused Rune to arch his body, his form began to convulse violently, and the veins on his skin bulged out, turning purplish-black in an instant.

This thing is really powerful!

Rune knelt on the ground, his eyes bloodshot. He could have used Astral Projection at this moment to directly separate his soul from his body and block out the pain, so he could learn magic while watching his body struggle.

But this is nothing but self-deception.

Once he takes on the power of Doomsday, Rune will inevitably seek out and endure all sorts of attacks to strengthen his defenses. Does this mean he'll have to resort to astral projection every time?

Moreover, if you can't even bear this little bit of pain, are you going to run away from those forgotten people in the future because you're afraid of the pain?

Wouldn't Deadpool and Wolverine laugh at them?

Rune tried to distract himself while enduring the horrifying pain.

He could feel his muscles and bones changing; they were growing, strengthening, and even compressing wildly, while Rune's body density was constantly increasing, and his skin was becoming more supple.

At the same time, Rune's power is growing at an astonishing rate.

But what he didn't expect was that these were merely physical changes, while the thoughts from Doomsday were also fiercely attacking Rune's own brain.

It was as if countless invisible and cold hands were trying to pry open and tear apart Rune's head. They cheered, jumped for joy, and demanded that Rune attack everything in sight, destroy all objects, and turn them into dust!

Logically, as a powerful mage, Rune should have been able to easily withstand this level of mental attack, but the physical pain made it difficult for him to concentrate. These whispers kept urging him to follow their teachings.

Such agony caused Rune to deliver a double piercing to his ears, completely destroying his eardrums. But the words seemed to come from the void, and Rune could still hear them, urging him to destroy everything.

Therefore, Rune could only use the magic within him to support his body, stiffening every bone to prevent himself from actually obeying those words and destroying everything in front of him.

The floating cloak, which had transformed into clothing, also obeyed Rune's command, doing its best to bind its master.

There is no Justice League in this universe now, and Clark and the scattered Marvel heroes are no match for Rune's attack. If he relaxes his guard, Earth, and even the entire dimension, will be doomed.

He could only hypnotize himself, telling himself to just endure it for a few more seconds, just a few more seconds.

Perhaps hundreds of years had passed, or perhaps only a few minutes, but Rune finally pulled through. He struggled to his feet, feeling like an ordinary person who had been training all day. His whole body ached, felt numb, and itchy.

Even in this state, he forced himself to look in the mirror. In the mirror, his appearance hadn't changed much, except that two white bone spurs had appeared on his temples, looking like dragon horns.

With a thought, Rune's levitation cloak instantly transformed into its original form and floated beside him. He discovered that his originally smooth body now had some small white armor plates, which were particularly dense on his spine, chest, and shoulders.

He squinted, scrutinizing his reflection in the mirror. The more he looked, the more familiar it seemed, as if he resembled a race from some game—

Hey, isn't that the dragonman from FF14? It's just missing a tail!

Rune slapped his forehead, but at least he didn't turn into Doomsday covered in bone spurs, and he was actually quite good-looking.

You see, he was originally prepared to go bald. Compared to that tuft of hair, the immense power of Doomsday was more appealing to Rune. But fortunately, he got the best of both worlds.

After putting his clothes back on, Rune cast a concealment spell on the bone spikes and bone armor on his body, making all ordinary people ignore his uniqueness.

Starting today, everything will be different.
