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

Chapter 1088 This guy was clearly a major villain before?

Peter's words plunged Black Strange into a brief silence.

A fleeting look of astonishment crossed his shadowed face.

He lowered his head and surveyed the "Troublemakers of Father's Sorrow" who were wreaking havoc among the zombie horde below.

"The father is worried?"

Black Strange repeated in a low voice, then let out a deep laugh, "Interesting name, Peter Patrick. You always manage to surprise me. Well then, let's see if your 'Father Worries' can stop me..."

Before he finished speaking, several powerful auras broke through the zombie encirclement from different directions of the battlefield at an extremely fast speed, rushing towards the area where Peter and Black Strange were facing off.

First, there's Tom, who absorbed the power of the Eclipse, with a dark crystal hidden deep within his left eye, making his aura unfathomable.

Tom moved silently over and landed behind Peter.

Next up was Azu, whose red light hadn't completely faded from his eyes and whose face showed displeasure.

After blasting away a zombie mutant that was blocking his way, Azu flew to the other side of Peter.

Almost simultaneously, Clark also broke free of his opponent and arrived with a whooshing sound, landing beside Peter.

His breathing was slightly rapid, and he stared at the black oddity with a serious expression.

Meanwhile, Stephen also arrived.

Stephen, his face solemn, watched as the energy of the Seraphim Silk and the Vishanti Sword converged in his hands.

Even with the power of the Dark Book, Stephen had some doubts about whether he could fight against the Black Strange.

Together with Peter, the group formed a subtle encirclement around the black anomaly suspended in mid-air.

Blackie's strange gaze swept over the newcomers, lingering particularly on Tom for a moment.

He could sense the dark aura emanating from Tom, a aura that shared the same origin as his own yet was somewhat different.

After a long pause, Black Strange turned his gaze to Peter again, "These...are all your children?"

Peter took a deep breath and said to him, “Of course, you can summon your zombie avengers, and I can naturally summon my League of Father's Troubles. It’s fair, isn’t it?”

"The Father's Sorrow Alliance..."

Hei Qiyi repeated the name with a strange expression.

Although it sounds a bit strange, it seems to have a lot of strength.

Black Strange did not launch an attack immediately, and Peter also fell into deep thought, his doubts growing.

His perception was incredibly sharp, especially towards his children, who were connected to him by blood.

Tom was standing not far from him, but the energy fluctuations emanating from the other person were very strange.

This energy fluctuation was not only the familiar aura that combined Hogwarts and DC arcane magic, but also contained an extremely ancient and chilling dark power.

What happened to Tom during the time I was away?
Peter's heart sank, and a look of doubt appeared on his face.

Although we want to find out about Tom's situation, with a formidable enemy at hand, this is not the time to ask questions.

Peter forcefully suppressed his doubts and fixed his gaze on the black oddity.

Before Peter could act, Azu, the most impatient and impulsive of them all, broke the brief standoff.

"You beast, die!"

Azu roared, pouring out all his dissatisfaction with Hei Qiyi and the frustration from the previous battle.

Raising the Trident of Poseidon high in his hand, Azu unleashed the thunderous power it contained.

"boom--!"

A thick bolt of lightning, gleaming with a blinding blue-white light, descended from the sky.

The powerful lightning was directly triggered by the trident, tearing through the air with a deafening explosion, and struck the top of the black monster's head.

The power of this attack far exceeded what Azu could usually unleash, clearly driven to its extreme by anger and fighting spirit.

However, faced with a raging thunderbolt powerful enough to level a small mountain, Black Strange did not even make any defensive or evasive moves.

He simply raised his head slightly and opened his mouth.

To the astonishment of Peter, Clark, Stephen, and Azu, the destructive lightning, just before making contact with Black Strange's body, seemed to be drawn by some invisible force, suddenly contracting and deforming, and finally turning into a thin arc of electricity, which was directly sucked into Black Strange's mouth.

"Hiccup~"

Black Strange even smacked its lips lightly, as if savoring a delicious treat, letting out a soft muffled sound from its throat, and a faint spark of electricity emanated from the corner of its mouth.

The dark energy around him seemed to become a little more active as a result.

"It tastes good, full of... angry energy."

Black Oddity offered its commentary.

"Wha...what?!"

Azu stared in disbelief as his all-out attack was devoured by his opponent like a snack, his mind almost completely blank.

What kind of monster is this guy?

This was completely beyond his comprehension.

Peter and Stephen's expressions instantly turned extremely ugly.

Absorbing energy?

Moreover, it was the thunderous energy released by Azu?

The opponent's control and application of power had clearly reached an unbelievable level.

Peter stared in silence at the Black Strange, whose eyes were flashing with lightning sparks as it devoured the thunder.

Has this guy been hiding his true strength all along, playing the fool to catch a wolf in sheep's clothing?

How come this old silver coin is the same as mine?
Peter couldn't help but complain about the other person's snobbish behavior.

"Be careful! He can absorb and convert energy attacks."

Stephen was shocked to see this, but he quickly recovered and immediately warned everyone loudly.

Peter didn't even have time to complain and launched his strongest attack.

He mobilized all his divine power and the power of dream sand, and at the same time, through the connection deep within his soul, activated the deep demonic power originating from the Trigon Demon hidden within Raven's body.

As Peter controlled Raven to raise her hand, a vast and complex force erupted from her.

"Azarath Metrion Zinthos!"

Peter manipulated Raven's body, chanting ancient incantations.

As the incantation was released, a vast, shadowy black raven-shaped energy roared forth.

The raven formed from immense shadow energy shrieked silently, distorting and annihilating light wherever it passed, carrying an absolute darkness that devoured all emotion and light as it hurtled toward the Black Strange.

This time, the Black Strange was not so arrogant as to try to devour again.

He sensed a completely different, threatening attribute from this power.

The black figure flickered and disappeared on the spot like a ghost, dodging the direct impact of the raven energy.

However, just as Black Strange's form solidified again after dodging, Tom launched his attack.

The dark crystal in his left eye suddenly lit up, and at the same time, Tom quickly formed a complex hand seal originating from the Dark Book.

He mobilized the power of the Eclipse he had just absorbed—a power specifically designed to amplify negative emotions and erode the mind.

"call!"

A thick, dense black mist, seemingly capable of absorbing all light, suddenly erupted from in front of Tom.

The black mist was filled with countless twisted, pained faces and desperate howls, directly affecting the soul level.

In Hei Qi's astonished gaze, the black mist rapidly condensed in the air, transforming into a ferocious, roaring giant skull composed of pure darkness and negative energy.

The black skull image opened its all-consuming maw, emitting a soul-shaking shriek, and headed towards the strange black scroll that had just completed its teleportation and whose form was not yet fully stable.

Black Strange was clearly not expecting this young man in school uniform to launch such a bizarre and vicious mixed attack right from the start.

Faced with the onrushing dark skeleton, Black Strange had no choice but to raise his hands, and a powerful yellow rune shield instantly appeared again, blocking his way.

"boom!"

The dark skeleton slammed into the yellow shield.

A grating, teeth-grinding sound, like countless souls scraping against glass, rang out.

The black mist and yellow energy violently eroded and canceled each other out, erupting into chaotic energy turbulence.

Although the shield remained stable, the black figure was slightly shaken by the impact.

More importantly, the eclipsing power contained within the black mist attempted to penetrate the shield and directly affect his mind.

Although it was quickly dispelled by the greater dark power within him, the momentary interference still caused the Black Strange to pause.

Seeing that Tom's attack was effective, Stephen from the main universe's eyes lit up.

Tom has improved so much? Is this really the Tom Patrick I know?

On the other side, Clark didn't hesitate. Taking advantage of the precious moment when Black Strange was being attacked and restrained by Tom, he activated his super speed and rushed forward first.

Stephen, meanwhile, wielded the Seraphim Silk and the Vishanti Sword, flanking from the side.

Tom continued to roam the perimeter, his left eye flashing with a dark crystal, preparing for the next deadly sneak attack or control.

Black Strange was besieged by Peter and several "Fathers of Sorrow".

On the other side of the battlefield, Horus was engaged in a fierce battle.

Wearing power armor, Horus wielded a bomb gun that tore ordinary zombies that pounced on him to shreds.

But his main adversary—a rotten creation of Thor—was far too powerful.

The zombie Thor's power didn't seem to diminish much with death; instead, it became even more violent and unpredictable.

Every swing of that rusty Thor's hammer carries corrosive lightning and immense power.

Despite some setbacks in the battle, Horus remained quite calm.

After all, as the commander most trusted by his father, the emperor, he still had that much composure.

However, what frustrated him was that he had already told everyone to follow his instructions before he arrived.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the battle began, Mordred shouted "For my father!" and charged out, while the others fought their own battles.

How can we fight a good war with these insect brothers and sisters?

"For my Emperor father!"

Horus roared in frustration, taking the blow head-on with the shoulder of his power armor. He staggered backward, the armor groaning under the strain.

Horus took a step back, raised his bomb gun, and fired fiercely at the rotting head of the zombie Thor.

But the bombs were either deflected by the hammer or only managed to create small craters in the opponent's tough skin.

The zombie Thor let out a silent roar, dragging its broken body, and once again raised its warhammer, summoning a murky thundercloud, about to unleash a deadly dark lightning bolt.

Horus gritted his teeth, planted his power sword in the ground to support his body, raised his explosive gun for a final stand, and prepared himself to take the hit head-on.

At this critical moment, a crimson afterimage, so fast it was almost impossible to see with the naked eye, cut between the two as if by teleportation.

The crimson figure seemed completely unconcerned about the impending dark lightning, and casually extended its hand forward, enveloped in soft red energy.

"Clap!"

A sharp, chilling sound of bones shattering rang out!

The other person grabbed the zombie Thor's rotting neck and snapped it in one swift motion.

The next second, the zombie Thor's massive body, brimming with terrifying power, suddenly stiffened, his raised warhammer motion frozen in place.

In his empty eye sockets, the last glimmer of instinct seemed to flash with disbelief.

Afterwards, the zombie Thor's head tilted to one side at an extremely unnatural angle, and his neck bones were completely shattered.

The lightning dissipated abruptly before it struck, and Thor's hammer fell to the ground with a clang.

The zombie Thor's massive body swayed, crashed heavily to the ground, splashing up a cloud of filth, and then lay completely still.

All of this happened so fast that Horus didn't even have time to react before the threat was eliminated.

He held the explosive gun, staring dumbfounded at the crimson figure.

Wanda slowly turned around, her face calm, as if she had just crushed an annoying bug.

Her gaze first fell on Horus, and she nodded. Then she looked past him and toward Peter, who was fighting the Black Strange in the distance.

"It seems you've run into a little trouble."

Wanda said to Horus.

Wanda's arrival was like a bombshell to everyone else on the battlefield.

"Wang...Wanda?!!"

Captain Carter gasped in shock, barely managing to drop the vibranium shield in his hands.

Mr. Fantastic Reed's body tensed up abruptly, and Captain Marvel Monica Rambo was on high alert, instantly boosting her photon energy to combat readiness.

The members of the Illuminati could never forget this face.

After all, the Wanda from their universe who was possessed by this Wanda had killed their comrade Black Bolt.

How did Scarlet Witch end up here?

And this seems to be her real form.

On the other hand, America Chavez reacted the most strongly.

Her face turned deathly pale instantly, and her body began to tremble violently uncontrollably.

Her encounters in the Illuminati universe were her eternal nightmare—being chased, threatened, and nearly having her power drained. The source of all this was the woman in front of her!
"Why...why...?"

America's voice trembled with fear, barely able to form a complete sentence, "Why...why are you here?! You...do you still want to capture me?!"

She instinctively stepped back, almost hiding behind Horus.

Wanda turned her gaze to America, but there was no hostility in her eyes.

She gently shook her head. "No, I'm sorry, I won't hurt you again."

"As for why we came here? I've already told Peter."

Wanda's voice remained calm, "In my pursuit of you, I fell into a... universe filled with the dead."

She glanced at the zombie Thor's corpse on the ground. "I never imagined that the dead of this universe would be sent here by another 'Doctor Strange' who opened a portal. I just... happened to come here with them."

She paused, then added, "Speaking of which, I should thank this 'Doctor Strange' for opening the way back for me."

After explaining, Wanda seemed unwilling to say anything more.

Her gaze swept over the endless, howling hordes of zombies rushing towards her, and her brows furrowed slightly.

The next moment, Wanda casually waved her hand.

“Buzz——!!!”

An invisible yet incredibly powerful wave of chaotic magic emanated from her, spreading across the entire battlefield like ripples on water.

All the zombies swept by this crimson ripple—whether ordinary zombies, mutated monsters, or powerful zombie hero variants—froze instantly, then, like sand sculptures scattered by the wind, rapidly decomposed, disintegrated, and turned into the finest dust, fluttering down like sand.

There were no explosions, no screams, only a chilling silence and ashes scattered everywhere.

With a wave of his hand, the horde of zombies that covered the mountains and fields vanished in an instant.

Wanda's casual destruction of the nearby zombie army once again shocked everyone present.

Horus, Mordred, and the others looked at her with suspicion and uncertainty.

Is this really the Wanda I know?!
Mordred was somewhat annoyed.

He looked even more handsome than me when he appeared?

This old man is very unhappy!
After doing all this, Wanda's expression remained unchanged. Her gaze once again locked onto the Black Strange, who had just regained his footing under the attack of Peter and the others and was also slightly surprised by her appearance.

The next moment, Wanda launched an attack.

Her figure transformed into a crimson afterimage that tore through space, and Wanda instantly traversed a distance of thousands of meters, heading straight for Black Strange.

With a wave of her hand, Wanda unleashed the full power of her chaotic magic.

The purest energy poured out, a powerful, condensed, and irresistible crimson energy torrent, like a surging blood-red river, instantly engulfing the black strange figure.

For the first time, Black Strange's normally impenetrable yellow rune shield shattered under the weight of this absolute power.

"boom!!!"

The shield shattered completely. Caught off guard, Black Strange was struck hard by the powerful chaotic magic. He groaned and was sent flying backward uncontrollably.

Transforming into a black meteor, the Black Strange crashed into a distant, not-yet-completely-collapsed mountainside, causing a violent explosion and landslide.

The entire battlefield instantly fell into a deathly silence.

Everyone was stunned by this sudden and overwhelming intervention.

Peter's eyes twitched slightly as he looked at Wanda, who was suspended in mid-air, her clothes fluttering in the aftershocks of energy.

You all suddenly came to the rescue. Do you think I really have some kind of "unconventional summoning magic" that automatically summons you whenever I'm in danger?

The dark crystal in Tom's left eye flickered slightly, as if he were calculating something.

The Illuminati members and America were still immersed in immense shock and disbelief.

Has the Scarlet Witch arrived in the guise of a savior?

This guy was a major villain before, wasn't he?
