106. The Wound.
The atmosphere in the living room dropped to freezing point as both Alex and Moon Knight fell silent.
Moon Knight, despite being a superhero known for his intelligence and strategic mind, was at a loss when it came to dealing with an entity that surpassed his understanding. He could offer advice on matters involving gods and dimensions, but this existence beyond the multiverse was beyond his capability.
Although he hadn't witnessed the cocoon-like entity, Moon Knight could infer from Alex's description that its power far exceeded the multiverse, especially since its goal was to devour universes.
Alex was deep in thought, his mind racing.For these universes, Alex's greatest asset was the memories in his mind. The plot developments of different universes, and the abilities and weaknesses of various heroes and entities, were all things Alex could rely on. With the help of these memories, Alex could solve many issues.
However, faced with something not present in his memories, Alex was somewhat at a loss. But he knew that if he could understand the entity's ultimate goal, there might still be a way to deal with it.Diiscover new stories at novelhall.com
Currently, it was known that the entity was entrenched in the timeline of this universe. Using the time controller, Alex could potentially take people outside the timeline to confront it. But Alex didn't know if they could win, and if the entity decided to flee, he wouldn't be able to chase it along the entire timeline before the time controller recorded this universe. Recording the universe would take a considerable amount of time, and time was what they lacked the most.
Alex couldn't gamble on whether he could record the universe first or if the universe would be consumed by the dark shroud. So, the most important thing for Alex now was to figure out the entity's goal and how it targeted and arrived in this universe. Perhaps only one person could give Alex the answers he needed.
Thinking of this, Alex looked up and glanced out the window.
After a while, there was a noise at the door. Hearing it, Moon Knight immediately stood up.
"Don't worry, it's my friends returning." Seeing Moon Knight's alertness, Alex waved his hand, indicating he could relax a bit. Sure enough, the door opened, and Kara walked in first, holding a bloody head in her hand.
Judging by the face on the head, it was undoubtedly Deadpool.
"You shouldn't be hurt. Here, even adamantium shouldn't be able to harm you," Alex said after a moment, his voice low.
Kryptonians had an incredibly tough physique. In the DC universe, there were many mystical metals, but the most they could do was cause Superman pain; few could actually injure him. So, it was impossible for Deadpool to cut Kara.
Hearing Alex's words, everyone fell silent, even Pietro, who frowned and looked at Kara's shoulder wound.
Indeed, how could Kara, with her steel body, get hurt?
Kara and Pietro exchanged glances, both seeing surprise and confusion in each other's eyes. It seemed they had subconsciously overlooked this question.
"Could it be something special on his blade? Something in this universe that acts like kryptonite, so it could hurt me?" Kara speculated, uncertain.
Alex shook his head, didn't answer immediately. Instead, he moved to Kara, placed a hand on her shoulder wound, and summoned a pale green magical energy, which swirled around his palm.
As he felt Kara's skin, Alex's frown deepened.
This basic detection spell used magical energy to investigate the wound's origin and the nature of the attack.
But the feedback Alex received showed that the wound was exceptionally strange. Rather than being a cut by Deadpool, it seemed to have appeared out of thin air.
