Superman of the American Comics - Chapter 292
[Chapter 277 Sleeping Pharaoh, Apocalypse’s Reward]
The moment the spatial coordinates were disordered, Luke noticed something was wrong.
With his reaction speed, he immediately opened a portal to avoid the phase shift.
But Superman didn’t do this, but like a predator at the top of the food chain, he took the initiative to step into the trap launched by Kang the Conqueror before he died.
He was very curious what kind of strong enemy the other party could find for him.
The current era, on this planet.
The only people who can be treated seriously by Superman are Gu Yi and Odin.
It is impossible for Conqueror Kang to call in some Omega-class mutants, or Sentinels, Hulk, and break his wrists from the future.
“Oh, so that’s how it is.”
Standing in the pyramids of ancient Egypt, Luke looked around for a while, and quickly guessed Kang the Conqueror’s plan.
“If I remember correctly, he and Apocalypse have always been enemies.”
Seeing the ancient Egyptian pyramids, Luke immediately thought of the god of mutants, Apocalypse.
Conqueror Kang once pretended to be an Egyptian pharaoh and had a personal grudge with Apocalypse.
Take Superman out of the pyramid through phase shifting.
What he wants to do is self-evident.
Murder with a knife?
But why would Tianqi do what Kang the Conqueror thought?
“However, this is indeed a strong opponent.”
Luke pouted, he had heard of Tianqi’s name as early as the time of Black Emperor Sebastian Xiao.
The latter, whose real name is En-Shaba-Nur, was born in the first dynasty of ancient Egypt and was the first mutant in the history of the earth.
Even the Black Queen Selene, the witch who was active in the Roman Empire and had a long life, did not exist as long as the other party.
As for Conqueror Kang and Tianqi, the grievances between the two are entangled.
It goes back to a very early age, when it was the first dynasty of ancient Egypt, when Kang the conqueror pretended to be a pharaoh and ruled the country with enormous power.
And Apocalypse is just an abandoned baby adopted by wanderers.
As a future person who is familiar with the plot, Kang the Conqueror sees the huge potential of Apocalypse.
So, he planned to control the opponent, accept him as a younger brother, and train to become the number one horse boy and thug.
It’s just a pity that in the process, Kang the Conqueror was self-defeating, unfortunately overturned, and was regarded as an enemy by Apocalypse.
After awakening his abilities, Apocalypse led the Egyptian people to overthrow the brutal rule of the conqueror Kang.
The latter saw that something was wrong, so he could only flee in embarrassment.
This past incident has always made the conqueror Kang brood, and regarded it as a great shame.
And Apocalypse has not forgotten, and always wants to take revenge on the conqueror Kang.
Since then, the two have completely forged a relationship and hated each other.
In order to prevent Luke from winning so easily and smoothly, Kang the Conqueror actually found Apocalypse and woke him up.
It can be seen that his resentment towards Superman has surpassed his old rival in a short period of time.
“I’m obviously a good person, and Kang the Conqueror is the villain.”
Luke shook his head, completely not understanding why Kang the Conqueror hated him.
You are the light of the right path, the beacon of the world.
Absolutely positive character, superhero.
Is there anything wrong with him being beaten to death by a younger generation like Kang the Conqueror?
Obviously, it is in line with the standard endings of popular or Hollywood movies.
“As expected of the god of mutants.”
Luke walked towards the bottom of the pyramid while thinking divergent.
He could clearly feel that dormant, dormant, yet still strong and abundant life energy.
The apocalypse is there.
And gradually wake up.
That terrifying and tyrannical atmosphere, like a lava volcano, erupted suddenly, making people feel suffocated.
Luke did not choose to leave, but continued down.
By the way, there is leisure to observe the architectural structure and cultural characteristics of the pyramids.
Along the way, the frescoes and reliefs he saw were well preserved.
The Egyptians danced anti-joint dances and wore animal feathers or bones on their heads as decorations.
Or armed with a spear, hunting wild beasts.
Or hold sacrifices to worship the gods.
The lifelike frescoes depict some aspects of ancient times.
Having said that, the reason why the pyramid known as “one of the seven wonders of the world” appeared in ancient Egypt is completely the pot of the conqueror Kang.
This guy is a future man, pretending to be a pharaoh to build wonders, such as pyramids and sphinxes, all of which he brought up.
Later, the conqueror Kang was overthrown by Apocalypse, partly because of the spectacle that misled the country.
Boom!
Boom!
Muffled sound like thunder, spread far away.
The further down he went, the more powerful pressure Luke could feel.
The air is like a sticky glue, and normal people struggle with every step they take.
The energy rays radiated out, illuminating the dark closed space brightly.
“This is… the god of mutants?”
Luke stepped into the wide hall, and at a distance, he saw a tall man lying on the stone platform engraved with complex circuits.
The opponent’s skin was gray, his lips were blue, and his strong muscles were exposed like steel.
dong dong!
dong dong dong!
The strong and powerful heartbeat sounded like the beating of a giant drum.
“Looks like a skinned Thanos.” Love Me
Luke groaned.
He was bathed in energy rays of light, his physique was strong, and the tall Apocalypse was indeed somewhat similar to the Titan star Thanos.
“Who… who…” The
thick voice echoed in the hall, and the gray figure slowly sat up when he sensed the intruder.
When he stood up, the gilded stone platform turned to dust.
Like an invisible big hand, kneading it into a metal armor.
This powerful ability to manipulate matter is enough to make Black Emperor Sebastian Shaw, Mr. Omen and other Alpha-level mutants look down on them.
“You… startled… awake… me?”
Apocalypse, the oldest mutant on earth, woke up.
He opened his eyes and looked at the tall and straight figure standing at the door, with strange emotions flashing in his eyes.
It wasn’t Nathaniel Essex, the human who volunteered to be a slave?
In this world, there is no one else except Nathaniel who knows where he sleeps.
“Great En-Saba-Nur.”
Luke gave the honorary title without any sincerity.
“It was someone else who woke you up from your slumber.”
“His name is Kang the Conqueror, a man from the future.”
Boom!
When Luke mentioned “Kang the Conqueror”, Apocalypse, who had not yet woken up and was in a state of confusion, immediately widened his eyes and burst into anger.
The terrifying energy slammed into the void and shook the huge pyramid.
It’s enough to see how deep the hatred Apocalypse has for that damn bastard.
“Where is he?”
Apocalypse clenched his fists, his eyes radiating cold light.
Just waiting for Luke to tell the whereabouts of Conqueror Kang, he went to punch the opponent’s dog head.
“The great En-Shaba-Nur, Kang the Conqueror – is dead,”
Luke replied.
“You did it?”
Apocalypse was a little surprised, and then asked again.
“Yes, he happens to have some… personal grudges with me.”
Luke nodded.
“Very good!”
Apocalypse’s cold gray face revealed a rare smile.
He took a step and slowly lifted into the air.
The stone pillars and murals in the hall were instantly reorganized into a stone throne.
Apocalypse sits on it, like a king, a god who dominates everything.
Looking down at Luke below, he asked generously, “So, human, what reward do you need?”
“I can make you a noble mutant, grant you extraordinary innate abilities, and allow you to follow my path. By your
side.”
This is Apocalypse’s thinking.
He used to be a pharaoh and a god, and he has always been worshipped by the secular world.
Therefore, being able to follow oneself is a supreme honor.
Then again, according to Apocalypse’s thoughts.
Humans are extremely backward in evolutionary level, quite backward, completely inferior to mutants.
Transforming a human into a mutant is a huge reward.
“Sorry, I don’t need these ‘gifts’, great En-Saba-Nur.”
Luke lacked interest and refused directly.
He has no common language with this kind of old guy who has been sleeping for too long and has a rigid mind.
“Oh, I haven’t experienced the taste of being rejected for a long time.”
Apocalypse said angrily.
He is a noble pharaoh, a great god.
Only others are always begging and catering to themselves.
But this human being in front of him actually showed a look of “not interested”.
unacceptable!
“My reward will never be taken back…”
Apocalypse said in a deep voice.
The energy rays radiated out, covering Luke who was standing there.
You know, the original Mr. Nathaniel Essex.
He almost got on his knees and licked his shoes before he got the chance to become a mutant.
How could this human being reject himself!
Apocalypse does not allow it!
The energy rays attempt to penetrate Luke’s body and transform him into a mutant.
But——
the latter directly opened up the biological force field, isolating that powerful energy light from the outside.
“Who are you?”
Apocalypse was shocked, his eyes bursting with light.
“Since you asked in good faith, then I’ll…”
Before Luke could tell his calendar, the pyramid shook violently, like an earthquake.
