American comics: Damn it, I’m surrounded by those who worry about their fathers!.

Chapter 1055 I'm a stepmother? You unfilial son!

The familiar sight before him seemed to be sunlight from the farm, which warmed Horus's spirit, which was on the verge of collapse, as if he were bathing in a hot spring.

The warm sunlight felt like the hand of my imperial father caressing me.

"Father?!"

This was the sunshine that healed his soul, and also the weapon that helped him resist all fear and darkness.

"He's just taking pity on me and using me."

The whispers of the evil god continued unabated.

"No!"

Horus's voice burst forth from his throat, piercing through the thick armor, echoing amidst the pervasive smoke and blood.

"No, absolutely not!"

At the center of the deep pit, Horus, who had been severely injured, suddenly unleashed a powerful force.

The hum of the power armor core suddenly rose, and blue-white arcs of electricity instantly wrapped around the damaged nozzles on his armored arms and back.

“I am not Horus Lupecal.”

Horus staggered to his feet. "I am not a traitor. I am not the Emperor's commander."

He supported the tattered armor and managed to stand upright from the bottom of the pit.

"I am the son of Peter Padrick, I am Horus Padrick, and I am the one who will rule the universe in the future!"

"Buzz!"

As Horus proclaimed this, the vector nozzles on the back of the power armor, which had been somewhat distorted by Star-Lord's gravity grenade, suddenly erupted with unprecedentedly intense flames.

The blue plasma flow expanded instantly, transforming into two torrents of energy that rushed towards Clark, who was suspended directly in front of it.

"boom!"

The rubble and debris beneath his feet were reduced to dust by the immense recoil he unleashed in an instant.

Horus, moving at an unprecedented speed, tore through the air and slammed into Clark.

A look of surprise flashed in Clark's crimson eyes; this kid could still stand up.

But his instincts were faster.

With his arms crossed, Clark blocked Horus's impact.

"Boom!"

A dull, loud bang resounded, and a shockwave, visible to the naked eye, spread wildly in all directions like a tsunami.

The burning, abandoned vehicles around Clark were easily blown away. Clark's body shuddered violently, and the enormous impact shook his suspended body, sending him flying backward.

Star-Lord paused for a moment, then quickly reacted, firing his Elemental Gun at Horus's exposed back.

But Horus seemed to have eyes in the back of his head. The instant he knocked Clark away, he used the enormous reaction force to violently swing his right arm, which was covered in electric arcs, backward.

"Qiang!"

With a sharp, metallic scraping sound, the menacing silver-gray claw blade—the Lightning Claw—was instantly ejected from the hidden mechanism on the right forearm of the power armor.

Lightning Claw is a variant of the power-fist technique for power armor researched by Horus.

This weapon uses pure crushing power to create several sharp blades that extend from the armor itself.

Even without an energy field, each blade is deadly, but when the force field is activated, the claw blades can penetrate almost any material with ease.

Star-Lord's energy beam grazed the edge of Horus' armor and exploded in the distance.

He let out an incredulous roar of pain as the lightning claw struck him!

A deep, bone-revealing wound appeared instantly on his shoulder.

Blood, emanating a strong, pungent stench, spurted out, and Star-Lord staggered backward.

"Roar!"

Raven, in her crimson raven form, let out an angry shriek, her claws tearing at Horus with a devastating force.

Horus, having just injured Star-Lord's lightning claw, swung upwards in the process.

The blue-white arc of electricity wrapped around it surged instantly, and with a "sizzle," the serrated claw blade struck Raven's claws.

The shadows were torn apart, and the viscous blood sizzled.

Raven let out a painful scream as Horus's sudden, violent power blasted her away, sending her tumbling into a pile of rubble.

"you wanna die!"

When Ah Zu saw that what he considered a "little bug" dared to resist, he was instantly enraged.

His intense gaze lashed out at Horus's breastplate area.

Horus whirled around, facing a beam of light powerful enough to melt through a tank's armor, but he chose not to dodge.

He suddenly raised his left arm and used his power boxing glove to protect the injured area in front of his chest.

At the same time, the power armor's energy was recklessly poured into the gauntlets at an excessive capacity.

"boom!"

The scorching beam of light struck the gauntlet, instantly bursting into a blinding white light.

The Power Gauntlet Armor emits a blinding red light under high temperatures and melts at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The immense impact propelled Horus backward, his feet carving two deep furrows into the ruins.

A charred hole was melted through the gauntlet, with hot metal droplets flowing from its edges. The intense burning pain traveled along the sensor circuitry, searing Horus's arm.

Although he was somewhat disheveled, he still managed to block Azu's heat vision attack.

"Go away-!"

Horus roared, and with the lingering heat of his gaze still intense, he swung his lightning claws forward.

Azu instinctively raised his arm to defend himself, but he didn't expect Horus's attack to be aimed not at him, but at the street ground beneath his feet, which was already too heavy to bear.

"Boom!"

The lightning claw sank deep into the cracked ground, and then Horus channeled the energy from the power core into the ground beneath his right arm.

Like detonating a landmine, accompanied by a deafening roar, a large area of ​​ground in front of Azu suddenly arched upwards under the force of the powerful energy.

Countless burning fragments and twisted steel bars shot into the sky like a volcanic eruption.

In an instant, a barrier of smoke and dust rose between Horus and Azu.

Smoke, flames, and rubble obscured everything, and Azu's vision was completely filled with chaos.

"No!"

Clark's roar came from behind the smoke and dust, filled with the fury of his prey escaping.

"Chase him! He's injured; he can't go far."

Azu said angrily.

Meanwhile, Horus, having escaped the battlefield, rushed toward the farm at top speed.

In the battle just now, the dense smoke and chaos provided the best cover.

Without the slightest hesitation, Horus, in the instant it swung its claws to create chaos, poured all the remaining energy from its power core into the vectoring nozzles on its back.

An even more violent stream of blue plasma erupted forth.

The immense force propelled his body away from the spot.

The shattered helmet and visor completely detached during high-speed flight, leaving it far behind.

His power armor was now damaged in many places, and blood was constantly seeping out from the torn lining and gaps, leaving thin blood streaks in the high-speed airflow.

The power glove on his left arm was melted through by Azu's heat vision, and the metal at the edge was still red-hot, bringing excruciating burning pain with every movement.

All the bones and muscles in his body were groaning under the strain, as if they were about to fall apart at any moment.

The whispers of the evil gods did not completely disappear; they clung to Horus's weary spirit like maggots.

"Run, traitor, you will eventually return to the embrace of darkness, and the seed within you will eventually sprout."

But this time, these blasphemous whispers struck an invisible dam.

Horus is now able to resist the power of this chaotic god.

Having just been ravaged by Clark's four-man group, he awakened an even stronger mental power, resisting the whispers of the evil god.

In a sense, he also has to thank Raven and her three friends.

Without them pushing him into a desperate situation, he might not have been able to withstand the corruption of the Chaos God.

“I am the son of the Emperor Father, I am the Nameless, I am the son of the farm, not Horus, the son of betrayal. This time, you cannot bewitch me.”

Horus murmured softly in the howling wind.

Although the evil god's powers were fighting in his mind, his power armor did not slow down at all, and he flew towards the farm at top speed.

Behind them, Clark, Azu, Raven, and Star-Lord followed like a swarm of sharks that had smelled blood.

"boom!"

Horus's power armor crashed into the familiar cornfield outside Patrick's Farm.

A large area of ​​withered and blackened corn stalks was flattened, and soil and broken plants flew everywhere.

Standing in the cornfield, Horus could only breathe heavily. Each breath was like pulling a broken bellows, causing excruciating pain throughout his body.

Before he could even catch his breath, several figures exuding a chilling aura landed heavily on the ground, surrounding him.

Azu hovered in mid-air, his scarlet eyes looking down at Horus.

"How pathetic, Nameless."

Azu slowly landed on the ground. "For that Bruce guy, you got yourself into this state? Was it worth it?"

"Hand over the serum you have."

Azu's eyes gleamed with a scarlet light as he said to him, "Or, let us help you find release and, while we're at it, taste your blood. To be honest, I've never tasted the blood of my dear younger brother and sister; it must be delicious."

Star-Lord's gun began to gather energy, and he said impatiently to Horus, "Save your energy, Nameless, this is over."

The shadow of death, like solid ice water, completely engulfed Horus.

The lingering whispers of the evil god seemed to be stirring again at the edge of his consciousness, trying to drag him into the abyss of despair.

At this point, he was almost too exhausted to even lift his eyelids.

Just as the intense gaze in Azu's eyes was about to burst forth.

"stop!"

A furious voice instantly tore through the air above the farm.

Several figures suddenly appeared among Horus and his group of four, firmly protecting Horus behind them.

Upon seeing the group of people who suddenly appeared, Azu was stunned.

Standing at the very front is Wonder Woman.

Under the moonlight, she stood as dignified as a Valkyrie of Olympus.

The Lasso of Truth shimmered with a faint golden light at her waist, and the Sword of the Fire God was already drawn, its blade pointing directly at the four people, including Azu, who exuded a foul aura.

At this moment, Diana's face no longer held its usual gentleness; only anger remained.

Behind her, Ciri's cat-like eyes gleamed warily in the darkness.

The rune-inlaid demon-hunting silver sword in her hand hung low, its tip steadily pointing at Raven. The space around her seemed to be slightly distorted by the power of the ancient blood within her.

Jane Foster gripped the Mjolnir hammer tightly in her hand, its shaft crackling with restless blue-white arcs of electricity and emitting a deep hum.

Anger was etched on her brow as she fixed her gaze on Star-Lord.

Standing at the back was Zatanna, her gaze coldly scrutinizing Azu.

The sudden, familiar, and powerful aura caused the four "Fathers of Sorrow," driven by their vampire instincts, to freeze in their tracks.

A faint hint of confusion seemed to flash in Clark's crimson eyes, but it was instantly swallowed up by a bloodthirsty chill.

The heat in Azu's eyes subsided slightly, but a more distorted expression appeared on his face.

Wonder Woman?

Azu's voice rang out first, deliberately drawn out and exaggerated in tone, "And Aunt Jane? Aunt Zatanna? Oh, and this... white-haired lady?"

He tilted his head, his gaze sweeping over Ciri with a flirtatious air. "What a grand welcome ceremony! What? A tea party at the farm? Didn't you inform us, the 'masters' sons'?"

"Azu!"

Jane glared at him. "Take back that disgusting tone. Look at yourselves. Peter is ashamed of you."

"Is Father ashamed of us?"

Ah Zu looked like he'd heard the funniest joke, and put on a "fake smile boy" expression.

"No, no, no, you're wrong. He'll soon be just like us. No, he'll be more perfect and stronger than us. He'll be proud of us."

A mad look flashed in his eyes. "As for you? You're just a bunch of outsiders who've been sponging off my farm."

He emphasized the word "outsider" very heavily.

"Azu, wake up."

Diana suppressed her anger, the tip of the Vulcan's sword trembling slightly with her fury. "You've been infected. Lay down your weapons and let us help you."

"Help us?"

Raven's bloodshot eyes were fixed on Diana, a smirk playing on her lips. "Aunt Diana, oh no, perhaps I should call you—'stepmother'?"

Upon hearing Raven's words, Diana's face instantly turned extremely ugly, and the veins on the back of her hand gripping the Vulcan sword bulged.

How come these kids speak in such a sarcastic and strange way after turning into vampires?

Or is this their true thought, that they don't want to be their stepmother?

Raven, seemingly oblivious to her anger, continued, "So eager to be our new mothers? And trying to boss us around?"

She scoffed, "Save your breath, stepmother. This farm has never needed a mistress. Dad has us, that's enough. It was before, and it will be even more so in the future. Once he becomes one of us, we'll turn this farm into a true blood nest. And you?"

Her scarlet nails lightly traced her lips, “Only fit to be a delicious treat we offer to our father.”

"Shut up, you filthy creation!"

Ciri couldn't help but shout, and the Demon Hunter's Silver Sword emitted a clear hum, its tip pointing directly at Raven.

"Hehehe"

Raven let out a cold laugh. "The little wildcat is angry? Too bad, your claws can't scratch me."

She leaned forward slightly, striking a defiant pose.

"enough!"

Star-Lord clutched his wound and said in a hoarse voice, "The reminiscing is over. Aunties, please move aside, or join our family dinner."

He shook the elemental gun, and the purplish-red light shone again. "That tin can kid's blood smells appetizing."

He sniffed greedily, his gaze sweeping over the crowd and locking onto Horus.

"Family dinner?"

Zatanna finally spoke.

She hovered in the air, magical runes flowing from her fingertips, her gaze angrily fixed on Azu.

John Patrick.

She said to Azu in an unfriendly tone, "What makes you think that with this pathetic, dark, and filthy power within you, you can do whatever you want in this place, insult the people who protect this place, and even insult your father?"

Her voice suddenly turned sharp, "How dare you pathetic worms, blinded by darkness, defile the name of Peter Patrick?!"

"Defilement?"

Azu seemed to be completely enraged. He took a step forward, his eyes burning with intense anger.

“He is no longer the father we knew. Soon, he will understand that only power and eternal life are the truth, and you old women who are blocking his way.”

His frantic gaze swept over Diana, Jane, and Zatanna, before finally settling on Ciri.

"It only deserves to be crushed. This farm is ours, and always will be. It doesn't need any mistress, and it certainly doesn't need you nosy aunties to interfere."

"Old woman? Auntie?"

Diana's voice lowered, like a volcano about to erupt.

The last trace of tolerance on her face vanished completely.

Ah Zu's words, "stepmother" and "old woman," were like the most vicious curse, completely igniting her anger.

Very well, I am an old woman, or even an auntie.

And she doesn't even deserve to be your stepmother.

Then let you rebellious sons see if I can be your stepmother.

The Vulcan Sword hummed, radiating scorching heat that distorted the surrounding air.

"It seems."

Diana slowly raised the Vulcan sword, its tip pointing directly at the suspended Clark. "Words are meaningless to you poor wretches swallowed by darkness."

Since you have forgotten reverence, forgotten kinship, and even forgotten the dignity of being human.

She took a deep breath, and the fighting spirit of the Amazon warriors erupted like a tangible shockwave.

"Then let's use force to make you bunch of arrogant and unfilial children kneel down and repent to your stepmother."

The moment the last word was uttered, Diana launched her attack.

The golden protective silver bracelets collided violently!
"clang!"

A golden shockwave, imbued with powerful divine energy, surged and spread in all directions like a raging sea.

Clark was the first to be hit; the enormous impact shoved his suspended body backward.

Diana's figure followed closely behind the shockwave, and the Vulcan sword tore through the air, slashing down towards Clark's head.

At the same time, Jane, having reached her limit, also launched an attack.

Mjolnir, imbued with the power of a thunderbolt, was hurled at her with all her might.

The target was Star-Lord, who boasted that he would treat Horus as a delicious meal.

The Mjolnir, carrying lightning, struck first and then struck later, instantly illuminating the entire farm, its violent thunderous power locking onto Star-Lord.
