Moon Knight and Moon Khonshu also arrived in Sokovia.

The two stood atop Gothic Tower.

His figure disappeared into the darkness.

Then, with a somersault, Moon Knight landed vertically and appeared in front of Chen Ji.

He was wrapped in a shroud, and exuded a dangerous aura.

The Entry Panel also appears.

[Name]: Marc Spector

[Identity]: Moon Knight

[Entry]: Hexagon Warrior (Blue), Undying Body (Blue), Agent of Khonshu (Black), Triple Personality (Black).

[Hexagon Warrior] (Blue): He is both an excellent detective and a master of interrogation. He is a retired Marine, proficient in all kinds of firearms and weapons, and skilled in driving all kinds of vehicles.

[Undying Body] (Blue): He seems unkillable. Have you thought of a solution?

[Agent of Khonshu] (Black): He was chosen by the moon god Khonshu to become the Fist of Khonshu, greatly enhancing his physical functions and gaining supernatural power, which is especially evident at night.

[Triple Personality] (Black): Marc Spector, due to childhood trauma, harbors Triple Personality, each with different behavioral patterns.

"... Agent of Khonshu!"

"It seems the proxy war between the Ancient Gods began quite some time ago."

Chen Ji squinted.

Immediately, he looked at the moon goddess Khonshu who was standing to the side.

All of Moon Knight's power comes from the Moon Goddess Khonshu!

He is also the first moon god in ancient Egypt mythology.

He voluntarily remained in the Midgard, stubbornly dealing with all the sinners.

Wherever the Moon Knight appears, the Moon Goddess Khonshu is always by his side.

"Um?"

"Can you see me?"

When the moon goddess Khonshu turned her head, she found that Chen Ji's gaze was fixed on her.

This left him utterly bewildered.

Until he discovered the presence of the Ancient Gods!

"So you're an agent too."

Khonshu has a magical voice, a hideous appearance, and is unpredictable in her moods.

But suddenly, I became somewhat interested.

They secretly wondered who was behind Chen Ji.

[Name]: Khonshu

[Identity]: God of Light and Night

[Entry]: Lunar Ancient God (Gold), Reversing Celestial Phenomena (Gold).

[Lunar Ancient God] (Gold): He is the Concept Incarnation of the moon, Omnipotence and omnipresent. As long as the concept of the moon exists, he will not perish.

[Night Observation of the Celestial Phenomena] (Gold): He remembers what each night looks like and can use his own power to trace back the starry sky and summon agents from different periods, but this only works during a full moon.

"... really!"

"Among all beings who are called gods, there is not a single weakling."

"Summon agents from different periods?"

"Concept Incarnation of the moon?"

Chen Ji was secretly wary.

Compared to Odin, the king of the gods, and the other pleasure-seeking Earth Gods, the threat posed by Khonshu, is no less!

After all, he had already chosen his agents to personally intervene in reality!

The history of the Moon Knight can be traced back to the Stone Age. This moon god is both righteous and evil, claiming to be righteous but doing all sorts of bad things!

Are you talking to me?

Moon Knight's expression shifted slightly.

He clearly didn't know that Chen Ji could also see Khonshu.

"No!"

"Fool!"

"I am speaking to this man from the East. He can see me too. Like you, he has also received the blessings of the Ancient Gods."

Khonshu gripped the Moon Goddess Scepter tightly. He was tall and resembled a mummy, but had a fiery temper, like a giant baby.

"Khonshu."

There's no need for you to get so worked up.

"We are all members of the Midnight Sons. The purpose of summoning you here is to deal with the Vampire."

"Besides..."

"The previous Moon Knight was planning to release Ammit?"

Aren't you worried at all?

Chen Ji smiled.

This caused a hint of suspicion to appear on the faces of Voodoo Doctor and the Ghost Rider.

Khonshu?

Who is Khonshu?

Are there other people here?

"To be precise, Khonshu is a god, the moon goddess."

"The power of Moon Knight comes from him."

He was standing right next to Marc.

Chen Ji pointed at the Moon Goddess Khonshu and suddenly felt that things were getting interesting.

"Ammit ..."

"You know Ammit?"

"Since you are also Midnight Sons, you should stop Ammit!"

The moon goddess Khonshu spoke with excitement.

He could not tolerate Arthur Harrow unleashing Ammit, the god of judgment!

Ammit.

It will judge criminals from the past and future.

Even if you haven't committed a crime yet, but might commit one in the future, she will still steal your soul!

This is something Khonshu will not tolerate!

In other words...

Ammit's trial was extremely idealistic; the standard of crime and the magnitude of error were all determined by his whim!

Who can guarantee they'll never break the rules or the law in their lifetime?

Even an unintentional offense will make you a sinner.

His soul was taken by Ammit.

Certainly.

So far, Arthur Harrow has neither found the Scarab nor been able to enter the Tomb of Alexander.

"I will stop Ammit, but not now."

"Khonshu."

"You have no right to order me around. Quit your temper, or don't blame me for beating you to death."

Chen Ji waved his hand.

He then firmly grasped an Icebreaker Hammer that gleamed with a cold light!

This hammer, being the oldest artifact in Jotunheim, is Unbreakable, no less powerful than the Eternal Spear, and capable of slaying gods!

Seeing this scene.

Khonshu immediately fell silent.

He sensed the murderous intent surging within Chen Ji.

"Icebreaker Hammer..."

"You are not Frost Giants, yet you can wield the Icebreaker Hammer. Who are you?!"

Khonshu's voice trembled.

This was completely beyond his comprehension!

"I am the Acting Sorcerer Supreme of Kamar-Taj."

You can call me... Chen.

"We've only just met, and I don't want to create conflict, Khonshu."

"You won't be participating in the Seven Realms War either, will you?"

Chen Ji's eyes flickered.

"The Seven Realms War...?"

"No interest!"

"I just want to stop Ammit."

Khonshu shook his head.

But who knows what he's up to!

He is the most unconventional god.

There is none other than that.

"Alright."

"Four members have yet to appear."

"Is this ignoring your summons?"

Chen Ji's eyes held a playful glint.

It seems that the Voodoo Doctor is not a competent leader in the Midnight Sons squad, as his messages have yet to receive a response.

"Ignore?"

"Perhaps the Midnight Sons are all fighting; this world has never been safe."

The Voodoo Doctor's expression was complicated.

The next second.

A dimensional portal immediately opened.

A Westerner dressed in casual clothes and sporting a full beard arrived in Sokovia and looked at the members of the Midnight Sons.

Am I late?

The Westerners wore smiles.

As the son of Satan, the Hell Lord.

He perfectly inherited the power of Satan.

Teleportation is a piece of cake for them.

[Name]: Daimon Hellstrom

[Identity]: Son of Satan, Hellstorm

[Entries]: Ghost Theorist (Blue), Exorcist (Blue), Hell Trident (Purple).

[Ghost and Spirit Scholar] (Blue): He is well-versed in supernatural phenomena and knowledgeable in various ghost and spirit realms. He is the most professional exorcist.

[Exorcist Master] (Blue): He is proficient in various exorcism techniques, possesses extraordinary strength, has an unusual physique, and a terrifying half-demon body.

[Hell Trident] (Purple): He can summon the Hell Trident, manipulate the flames deep within Hell, and teleport across dimensions. In the Hell he controls, he is almost Omnipotence.

"Hellstorm... Damon?"

"The lineup for Midnight Sons is truly magnificent."

"Mephisto, the Lord of Darkness, and the Moon Khonshu are also implicated..."

"What enemy did the Midnight Sons establish to fight against?"

Chen Ji's eyes narrowed.

They keenly discerned the mystery of the Midnight Sons.

What level of enemy could possibly force these monsters to unite?

Vampire?

Count Dracula?

I'm afraid not!

"From now on, this will be the resting place for the Midnight Sons. You can each choose your own room, and Chen will provide for all your needs."

"The Acting Sorcerer Supreme at Kamar-Taj is clearly rolling in money."

The Voodoo Doctor joked.

Chen Ji's identity and affiliation were also formally introduced to Hellstorm once again.

"Acting Sorcerer Supreme?"

"Acting?"

"Is it that the Ancient One doesn't want to hand over power to you?"

Hellstorm looked surprised.

As the son of Satan, he clearly knows Kamar-Taj quite well.

After all, the Magic Barrier also kept his father out, and his birth was purely accidental and coincidental.

"No."

"I have no intention of becoming the Sorcerer Supreme."

"Speaking of which, I'm very curious."

"What was your original intention in forming Midnight Sons...?"

Chen Ji voiced the question that had been lingering in his mind.

"Because..."

"Mother of Demons."

A majestic voice suddenly came from afar.

Three strange figures emerged from the darkness.

A long-nosed monster covered in vines, as strong as the Hulk, with blood-red eyes, stood at the back.

A burly Black man with dark skin, wielding a pure silver weapon, wearing matching sunglasses, had an extremely aloof expression.

There was also a young man in a suit, whose eyes revealed a beastly yet calm demeanor.

"Midnight Sons..."

"Finally, everyone's here."

The Voodoo Doctor secretly rejoiced.

The other members thankfully didn't let us down.

Otherwise, he would be incredibly embarrassed.

"Mother of Demons?"

Chen Ji frowned.

It sounds like I've heard it somewhere before.

"That's right."

"Mother of Demons."

Her real name is Lilith.

"In the late seventeenth century, she sold her soul to the Chthon in exchange for boundless magical power, and thus fell into depravity."

"Almost all the monsters and demons that have appeared on Earth are related to her."

"That's why we founded the Midnight Sons."

The young man in a suit and tie succinctly answered Chen Ji's questions.

Turn out to be...

The monsters on Earth didn't appear out of thin air, but were secretly conceived by Lilith?

Chen Ji and Wanda exchanged glances, and couldn't help but feel a chill.

This incredible level of fertility...

That's terrifying.

Then, he looked at the young man and brought up his Entry Panel.

[Name]: Jack Russell

[Identity]: Werewolf by Night

[Entries]: Ancient Curse (Blue), Demon-Hunting Master (Blue), Werewolf Transformation (Purple).

[Ancient Curse] (Blue): His family has suffered from a terrible curse for generations, and the power of the curse has been dormant within him.

[Demon-Hunting Master] (Blue): He knows the habits of various monsters and understands the weaknesses of many demons, often achieving unexpected victories and becoming the ultimate winner.

[Werewolf Transformation] (Purple): He retains both human intelligence and werewolf abilities, possessing superhuman physical strength, sharp fangs and claws, enough to tear apart a monster's body.

"... Ancient Curse?"

"A curse is also a form of power?"

Chen Ji was extremely surprised.

However, he already knew of the existence of this Werewolf by Night in his previous life.

"Chirp chirp chirp?"

The long-nosed monster emitted strange and peculiar syllables.

Aside from the Werewolf by Night, almost none of them could understand it.

He means to say...

"The children of the Mother of Demons were not born of her."

"That's what the Werewolf by Night translated."

"Um?"

Chen Ji's eyes widened in surprise.

I couldn't help but check the Entry Panel for Man-Thing.

[Name]: Ted Sallis

[Identity]: Man-Thing, Champion Fighter

[Entry]: Brainwave Perception (Blue), Swamp Avatar (Purple), Psionic Flame (Blue).

[Brainwave Perception] (Blue): He can perceive brainwaves, understand the inner thoughts and emotional fluctuations of others, and draw power from fear.

[Swamp Avatar] (Purple): He became the avatar of the swamp and can also use the swamp to jump between spaces. Wherever there are plants growing, he can heal his injuries.

[Psionic Flame] (Blue): He can unleash Psionic Flame that directly destroy the target, enough to incinerate the soul.

"Swamp... incarnation?"

"Man-Thing is almost like a god?"

"However, he seems to be somewhat different from the Concept Incarnation I understand."

Chen Ji's eyes flashed.

[Swamp Avatar].

This single term was enough to make Chen Ji take notice.

Besides... the Man-Thing also has the identity of a Champion fighter!

Could it be that the Man-Thing has already been to Sakaar and even become Champion fighter?

This was unexpected.

In the show, there is a Champion statue on the Sakaar.

It features not only Ares, but also Beta Ray Bill, Two-Headed Man, and even Man-Thing!

Did the Man-Thing travel to Sakaar via a swamp?

Chen Ji glanced around.

I was genuinely delighted by the star-studded lineup of Midnight Sons.

As long as the Midnight Sons are stationed in Sokovia, Wanda's safety can be guaranteed.

Try getting close to one, Chaos Witch?!

"So..."

"You defeated this Mother of Demons?"

Wanda asked curiously.
