The Lord of Hell

Chapter 3179 Crush

Chapter 3179 Crush

"This deity possesses the rule of energy, therefore, it can absorb your energy,"

Andrew looked at the energy deity and continued, "He can absorb and release energy. Do you want to try it? I think it would be quite exciting."

Andrew summoned this otherworldly deity using Harley Quinn's—no, Harley Quinn's—powers. That's right, he learned Harley Quinn's powers. Are you kidding me? He's the King of Powers; he can learn any power!

Of course, the premise is that you must have seen it with your own eyes. Moreover, the more powerful the ability, the more time and number of times it takes to see it. Given his relationship with Harley, he had seen this ability countless times, so it was normal for him to learn it.

To be honest, Harley Quinn's superpower has been a huge help to Andrew, and his strength has improved by leaps and bounds.

"No need, I probably can't beat this thing."

Sensing the immense energy fluctuations emanating from the deity, the steel tree smiled wryly. This energy deity was created by Him and a group of robots with all their might, and even He wasn't confident of defeating it.

Moreover, there was more than one opponent; the King of Superpowers, Andrew, was also there. If the two of them joined forces, He had no chance of winning at all. Therefore, He wisely admitted defeat.

"Boss, I lost this competition."

The steel tree sighed, and Andrew laughed, "Aren't you going to keep trying? Are you really willing to give up like this?"

"I'm willing, Boss. I'm not stupid. How could I not see that you weren't using your real skills?"

The steel tree said, "Your two abilities alone can easily suppress me. If you were to use your true abilities, I estimate I would be instantly killed by you."

What is Andrew's true ability? It's the ability to manipulate magnetism. So far in the battle, Andrew has never used this move against the Iron Tree. You should know that manipulating magnetism is the Iron Tree's nemesis.

The Steel Tree had witnessed Andrew's abilities during the live stream and knew that he could control metal, so it made some preparations on itself in advance.

These arrangements, combined with the special properties of the Compound 5 tree, allow it to resist magnetic manipulation and prevent it from being completely powerless against Andrew. Due to time constraints, the robots and fortresses did not have time to be equipped with these arrangements.

However, the recent exchange made the Iron Tree realize one thing: it thought it could resist magnetic manipulation, but it also felt that with the power of the King of Superpowers, its hastily made arrangements were probably useless.

"These aren't just any two abilities."

Andrew laughed and said, "Each of these two abilities is very strong, but of course, they can't compare to my core ability."

As Andrew spoke, he raised his hand toward the steel tree, and the methods the steel tree had set up on its body exploded. Then, its body flew up uncontrollably.

The steel tree tried to struggle, but to its shock, it could not control its body.

Andrew released his grip, and the steel tree crashed to the ground with a thud. He asked incredulously, "Boss, what just happened? Why couldn't I control my body?"

"Because the magnetic field disrupts your body's energy transmission system."

Andrew said he wasn't content with just controlling metal; he had been working to enhance his ability to control magnetic fields and incorporate various superpowers into it.

Now, Andrew's ability to manipulate magnetic fields allows him to control not only the energy transmission systems of mechanical objects, but also the nervous systems of living organisms.

To reiterate, what's most terrifying about Andrew isn't his ability, but his relentless research and continuous improvement.

"It seems that you have mastered the rules of magnetism, Boss."

The Iron Tree said that its premonition was indeed correct; the methods it had set up were completely useless against Andrew. It hesitated for a moment and then asked, "BOSS, I understand about the Energy God. Why couldn't so many attacks hit you before?"

"I can tell from what you said that you've never watched Naruto."

Andrew said, "Those attacks couldn't hit me because when they came, I wasn't even in this small space. What you see of me is just a projection of me in this world."

It's a projection, not an illusion. Andrew's ability is different from Obito Uchiha's Kamui. He elevates himself, transcends space, and then descends as a projection.

Obito Uchiha hid inside the space created by his Sharingan, leaving an illusion outside to deceive people; the two are different.

what's the difference?

Andrew can transfer power to the projection at any time, meaning he can take action without having to descend in person. At the same time, Andrew transcends space, making it almost impossible for others to find him unless they have a higher level of spatial mastery than him.

This ability, called Transcendence, is a powerful rule-based ability that Andrew developed by modifying multiple spatial abilities.

New York and Detroit combined already have tens of thousands of people with superpowers, and Andrew's current abilities are extraordinary.

How to put it? Andrew is like a reincarnated person who traveled back in time. Earning his first pot of gold was quite troublesome and very difficult, but once he earned it and had capital, his wealth would increase by leaps and bounds.

For example, you could buy shares of Pony Ma (Ma Huateng, founder of Matthew Cheung), or Kweichow Moutai (a major Chinese conglomerate), or invest in other large corporations, and easily achieve financial freedom.

That's a long story. After listening to what Andrew said, the Iron Tree suddenly realized, and then it smiled bitterly. It hadn't noticed the spatial fluctuations at all; it was really too weak.

Andrew said, "Alright, Steel Tree, tell me about your experiences. I'm very interested."

The script didn't include a plot about the Compound V Tree, so Andrew wanted to know about the Steel Tree's experiences and then use those experiences to deduce the situations of the other Compound V Trees.

"Yes, boss."

The Iron Tree nodded respectfully. It was now completely convinced of Andrew's power. There was no way it could disagree; the other party was too strong. Even if it cooperated with the likes of Sithon, it would be impossible to defeat the King of Superpowers.

In this situation, the Iron Tree naturally chose to continue following Andrew to save its own life. Its loyalty is at least 90%, and barring any major accidents, it will not betray him.

"After I was taken into this world by you, BOSS, I was initially confused. Then one day, I suddenly woke up and found myself in this secret realm."

The Iron Tree explained, "Then, I discovered that my strength was severely suppressed, and I wasn't even the Heavenly Father God anymore. To be honest, I was very panicked because I was born the Heavenly Father God, but now I suddenly am not."

I felt, well, how should I put it, like I was completely naked, unarmed, standing among a pack of hungry wolves, surrounded by danger.

"I find it hard to understand your feelings."

Andrew shook his head. Although he was born a demon king, he was an ordinary person in his previous life, so he didn't quite understand the feelings of the steel tree. Well, maybe it was like a rich second-generation suddenly becoming a pauper.

“You are not God the Father yet, so of course you can’t understand.”

The steel tree secretly complained, feeling a bit discouraged. The opponent was indeed not God the Father, but he had beaten him, God the Father, into submission.

The Iron Tree continued, "It took me a long time to adapt to my current strength. After that, I cautiously tested the monsters and BOSSes in the secret realm. Don't laugh if I tell you, I was as careful as I could be back then."

I prepared several plans and made many arrangements to deal with a crocodile, but then I realized I was outsmarting thin air. The crocodile, though not weak, was no match for me.

Andrew laughed. "So you're the legendary Iron Man?"

After Andrew finished laughing, the Steel Tree continued, "After confirming my strength, I developed rapidly in this secret realm, not only discovering this small space, but also creating a large number of machine creatures."

I thought this secret realm was just like that, but after you all came in, I realized it's actually a game. I wonder who designed it?

At this point, the Steel Tree seemed to remember something and cautiously asked, "Boss, this secret realm, you didn't design it, did you?"

Andrew asked with a smile, "Yes, is there a problem?"

"Of course not, BOSS. Your secret realm design is too good, too perfect. It's simply a masterpiece."

The steel tree immediately spoke, and Andrew looked at it, wanting to complain. To be honest, the steel face combined with the fawning expression was just too funny.

Andrew said, "I think so too, please continue."

"The boss has an unusually thick skin."

The steel tree muttered to itself, then continued, "After the game started, a lot of rules came to mind, but I'm just the boss of this game, not its controller."

The Iron Tree was giving Andrew a heads-up to prevent him from using the rules against the Losers' Alliance. In fact, if it had that ability, it would have dealt with Andrew first—of course, that was before, but the situation is different now.

Andrew asked, "So, you can't do anything about it?"

"There's nothing I can do before I step onto the field."

The steel tree nodded obediently and said, "However, the mechanical animals and robots are all my subordinates. I can command them, and they will obey my orders one hundred percent."

Although they're not particularly strong, they can still cause some trouble for the Losers' Alliance. However, time is limited. Once their crystal is breached, they'll be eliminated from the game. I can't change that; I'm just the villainous boss.

Andrew then asked, "And what happens after you come on stage?"

"Once I appear, all the steel monsters will be under my command. I can do whatever I want. In addition, I can move the fortress in the small space out as well."

At this point, the Steel Tree glanced at the ruins beside it and said helplessly, "There's no fortress anymore."

“If it’s just flattened, I can restore it, but you control them to explode. Even I can’t restore such a fortress.”

Andrew shook his head, then, as if remembering something, asked, "By the way, are those monsters outside also your products?"
