"Bang--!!!"
Knull's head tilted back at an eerie angle, and for the first time, an expression resembling "astonishment" appeared on his face, which was composed of pure darkness.
Immediately afterwards, his massive body, like a baseball hit with a home run, transformed into a black meteor, crashing down to the ground from the heavens at an even faster speed than it had come!
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The earth groaned in agony once more as Knull's body smashed into the very center of the New York ruins, creating a bottomless crater. The shockwave pulverized everything within a ten-mile radius.
Thor gave him no chance to catch his breath.
At the very moment Knull fell, Thor's figure appeared at the edge of the crater, following closely behind.
He didn't even look at the bottom of the pit; he simply raised his foot, which was covered in golden lightning, and stomped down heavily!
Thump!
This kick felt as if it had struck the drumhead of the entire universe.
A visible golden shockwave emanated from his landing point and rippled downwards in a ring!
Knull had just gathered a wisp of darkness at the bottom of the pit in an attempt to resist, was struck hard by the shockwave. His body, which had just coalesced, exploded again with a "poof," turning into a writhing pool of dark sludge.
"Get up." Thor's voice was devoid of emotion as he walked step by step down into the giant pit, each step causing the entire Earth's tectonic plates to tremble.
The dark, murky mud churned violently, reforming into Knull's form.
He raised his head, and for the first time, his scarlet spiral pupils were filled with an emotion called "fear".
He couldn't understand why.
Why has this Asgardians suddenly become so... outrageous?!
Thor had no interest in explaining it to him.
"You think you can bully people just because you've lived longer?" Thor walked up to him, grabbed his hair, and lifted him off the ground.
"Bang!" Another punch landed squarely on Knull's abdomen.
The power of light, mixed with lightning, exploded within his body, turning the dark origins within him upside down.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The following scenes became simple and brutal.
Thor was like a street thug, grabbing the God of Symbiotes and punching him repeatedly, each blow landing squarely.
He didn't use a battle axe; instead, he used the most primal method to unleash the fury he had accumulated from being brutally beaten onto the source of darkness.
Knull fought back frantically, channeling the power of the Void to try and devour Thor's fist; he manipulated the Law of Void, wanting to bring Thor to his end.
But it was all in vain.
The moment his darkness touched Thor's fist, it was instantly purified by the burning golden light emanating from it; his power of law was brutally crushed, absorbed, and then converted into his own by the more than thirty domineering combined laws within Thor.
"Roar!!!"
After being knocked to the ground once again, Knull let out a desperate roar.
He poured all his remaining power into the All-Black the Necrosword in his hand, the first Symbiote in the universe that had accompanied him for billions of years, which emitted a piercing wail.
He used all his strength to slash horizontally at Thor's neck! This was his last chance!
Faced with this devastating blow that embodied the dark side of the entire universe, Thor didn't even lift an eyelid.
He simply raised the black and gold battle axe and lightly tapped it against the blade of the All-Black the Necrosword.
"Bite!"
A soft sound.
Where the axe blade met the sword, the dense, impenetrable darkness on the All-Black the Necrosword seemed to have met its nemesis, quickly dissolving and crumbling.
Immediately afterwards, fine golden cracks began to appear at the point of contact and quickly spread throughout the entire blade.
"Click... click..."
Before Knull's incredulous eyes, the Abyss Sword, which had slaughtered countless gods and was a terrifying weapon feared throughout the multiverse, shattered into countless black powders, which vanished without a trace with a gust of wind.
"..."
Knull froze completely.
With his weapons destroyed, the very foundation of his existence was severely damaged.
He felt his strength draining away at an unprecedented rate.
Run! We have to run!
That was the only thought in his mind.
Without hesitation, he turned around, his entire body transforming into pure darkness, about to vanish into the void.
But a giant hand engulfed in golden flames was faster than him.
Thor grabbed the dark "neck" and dragged it out of the gap between the void and reality, slamming it back to the ground.
"Did I let you leave?" Thor's smile grew brighter and more cruel.
Then, a new round of beatings began.
As Thor fought, he sighed inwardly.
It's not that he enjoys beating weaker opponents; it's just that this guy is too troublesome.
As the embodiment of the dark side of the universe, as long as the concepts of "nothingness" and "darkness" exist in the universe, Knull will not be truly killed.
Even if you blast him to dust, millions of years later, he will still crawl out from some dark corner again.
Want to completely erase him from the conceptual level?
That would require at least Omniverse Level power to accomplish.
"Sigh, the multiverse is worse than a dog; the omnipotent universe is everywhere..."
Thor cursed inwardly, increasing the pressure on his hand. "I can't do that right now. I can only revert you to factory settings and make you behave for billions of years."
"Boom!!!"
With a final, powerful punch, the black divine armor made of the abyss on Knull's body finally succumbed to the dual baptism of light and lightning, shattering into the most primordial dark particles.
The beating finally stopped.
Thor lifted the now unrecognizable Knull into the air.
"Goodbye."
He uttered two words calmly, raising the black and gold battle axe high in his hand.
The next second, a golden axe blade that pierced the entire sky descended from above, instantly engulfing Knull's body completely.
Under the light of creation, the enormous body of the God of Symbiotes, like snow exposed to sunlight, rapidly and silently melted and evaporated, leaving not a single speck of dust behind.
The darkness that had shrouded the Earth for billions of years dissipated completely at this moment.
For the first time, the long-awaited rays of the Sun pierced through the thick clouds and shone upon this ravaged land.
We won...
In the distant ruins, Strange, the Classic Loki, the Black Swan Yabbat... all those who witnessed this scene had those two words simultaneously flash through their minds.
As they gazed at the figure in the sky, bathed in sunlight and golden light, resembling a god-king, the awe they felt was beyond words.
Black Swan Yabbat took a deep breath, then slowly knelt down on one knee in Thor's direction.
This action signifies that this observer of the universe's end of the world has completely abandoned the so-called "destiny" and staked everything on this "variable" named Thor.
In a corner of the battlefield below, Peter Parker was using Silk to hold a rickety billboard in place. He looked up at the sky, which had brightened again, and felt the suffocating threat from his Spider-Sense completely disappear. His tense nerves finally relaxed.
He staggered, almost falling to his knees.
It's over... Is it really over?
He glanced at the wounded he had protected not far away, then at the cold corpse of the Female Iron Fist, and a glimmer of hope appeared in his eyes.
perhaps...
High in the heavens, Thor resolved the greatest crisis in the universe, yet he felt little joy.
He looked down at the city, utterly destroyed by his battle with Knull, and the lives lost in the aftermath.
He slowly raised his hand, and in his palm, the golden light of creation and the Law of Life began to intertwine.
He wants to fix all of this.
He wanted to resurrect his fallen comrades.
However, just as he was about to raise his hand—
An energy, completely different from Knull's cold darkness, yet equally terrifying and even more violent, swept across the entire Earth without warning!
It was a scorching flame that seemed to ignite and incinerate the entire planet!
Immediately afterwards, a clear, high-pitched phoenix cry, filled with madness and hunger, resounded throughout the entire Sun System!
The sky was instantly dyed a dark, apocalyptic red.
A colossal phoenix phantom, engulfed in black flames, slowly unfurled its wings outside Earth's atmosphere. Its eyes held no brilliance, only a pure desire for destruction and an Eternity hunger.
At the center of the phoenix phantom, a figure dressed in green battle armor is slowly descending.
She's here.
The Zombie Phoenix has arrived!
