In a short moment, three of the four subordinates brought by Doctor Doom were dead.
The female Doctor Octopus and Sandman were ambushed to death, and now Mysterio was also strangled, leaving only one Prowler.
Moreover, this one is still being chased by the Elemental Giant.
“Shit!”
Divert the trouble eastward, leading this Elemental Giant, who might become even stronger, to the side of the equally terrifying enemy, so that he, the weakest, might be able to hold on until Doom could free himself and survive.
However, unfortunately, his plan failed.
With a gentle twist of fingers wearing the Sling Ring, a portal with edges flickering with golden sparks appeared in front of Shimizu, swallowing the rune stone.
The Prowler, who had just escaped from the shadows: … …
Why does it feel like my head was just hit?
The next second, a rune stone flashing with blue light fell in front of him.
“Boom!”
With one blow, the ground at the bottom of the tower lit up with unknown runes, protecting the building from being destroyed, while the Prowler in the shadows above was instantly burned to charcoal.
“Chī… … ”
The water-blue rune stone disappeared, and the aura on the Elemental Giant's body surged again, the flames on its body turning into scalding steam, spreading around with the airflow.
“Quite powerful… … ”
Shimizu looked at the Elemental Giant in front of him, clicking his tongue in wonder.
Just a puppet made with runes gave him a feeling close to that of Thor, a powerhouse at the level of a pseudo-Skyfather.
Of course, there was definitely still a gap; he estimated that the energy intensity was half a level lower, and although this Elemental Giant had a certain degree of intelligence, it was clearly not as good as a true intelligent life form.
If the four Elemental Giants were really combined into one, would it have the strength of a Skyfather?
Shimizu recalled the Elemental Giant's second power surge just now, feeling that it shouldn't, but at least it wouldn't be weaker than Thor.
No wonder it was said that Althor possessed the strength to contend with Dimensional Demons.
Millions of years had passed, and they still retained such strength in the security puppets guarding their home; if it were back then, it would probably be a proper Skyfather level.
Not to mention how strong he himself was.
“This is really quite troublesome… … ”
Shimizu looked up at the top.
In the perception of the Transparent World, Doctor Doom at the top of the tower was locked in a stalemate with Tony.
The strength of the two was not that different, but Tony was slightly weaker.
As the Sorcerer Supreme, being outside of his own dimension, he couldn't use his strongest means, the Infinity Stones.
But both of them were stronger than him.
Not just stronger than this avatar, but much stronger than the main body.
He estimated that the avatar from the DC world, with the blessing of the Speed Force Dagger and the Promethium Armor, could hold his own for a while.
As for himself… …
Although he couldn't win, if he had the Mind Stone on him, or was willing to pay a certain price to exchange for power beyond his own strength from Vishanti and other multi-universal gods, he would have the ability to intervene.
Of course, the prerequisite was to get past the Elemental Giant first.
Shimizu turned to look at the big guy charging towards him, instantly recalling the armor to his body.
Breath of Separation · Fifth Form · Wind and Thunder Separation Burst!
A surging plasma thunder storm exploded, blocking the Elemental Giant.
Shimizu controlled the armor on his right hand, and rotated the Sling Ring with his left hand, paying a certain amount of vitality and all the demon ash stored in the inner layer of the armor as the price, successfully exchanging for a powerful enough force from Vishanti and several other dimensional demon gods.
The sound of glass shattering rang out, and a portal to the Mirror Dimension instantly appeared on the reflective, smooth ground, swallowing the Sandman and the Earth Elemental Giant who were still being frozen.
Shimizu followed closely behind and drilled in.
But the Elemental Giant stopped at the entrance of the Mirror Dimension, hesitating to move forward.
He wanted to defeat the enemy, and he also wanted the core rune stone of the Earth Elemental Giant.
But his duty was to guard this tower.
So he couldn't leave here and enter the Mirror Dimension.
“What a pity.”
In the Mirror Dimension, Shimizu shook his head regretfully, and the freezing blast bomb prepared on the armor's shoulder was not launched.
If he could transfer the battlefield here, it would be much easier for him.
But at least he could isolate the Earth rune stone from the Elemental Giant, preventing it from strengthening again, which was also good news.
A portal with golden sparks opened from mid-air, and a freezing blast bomb rained down on the Elemental Giant.
In just a moment, the entire bottom of the tower turned into a frozen world.
Extremely low temperatures could suppress steam, water, and flames.
At the same time, several new teleportation light circles appeared, teleporting the charred remains of the Prowler to the Mirror World.
“As expected, claws made of Uru alloy, but only the claw blades are Uru alloy, possessing the magic to break through the shadow dimension and travel through the shadows?”
Shimizu looked at the ten sharp blades under his feet, then flew out of the portal, separating from the armor.
The energy cannons, freezing rays, and other weapons on the armor were still continuously outputting towards the Elemental Giant.
At this time, Shimizu formed hand seals with both hands and began to cast spells.
He had just borrowed a considerable amount of power from the Vishanti and other demon gods, and it was just right to use it now.
Pairs of arms emerged from behind Shimizu, then quickly separated, turning into hundreds of physical clones.
Images of Ikonn!
Following that, there were countless dazzling flashes of lightning.
Bolts of Balthakk!
At this moment, Shimizu went all out.
With the power of the dimensional demon gods, he could display strength far beyond the upper limit that his own chakra could exert.
At the top of the tower, two beams of light, one gold and one green, suddenly exploded.
In mid-air, a scroll made of unknown creature fur was being contested by a golden tiger claw and several green energy chains.
The Book of Althor!
The two fighting were Tony and Doom.
When Shimizu below erupted, the two of them glanced down at the same time.
They also noticed the movement below.
Tony's expression was surprised and a little delighted, and although Doom's face was blocked by the mask, making it impossible to see his expression, it clearly conveyed his gloomy mood.
This kind of attack could not be produced by the four guys under Doom.
It could only be someone else!
“Metal Mask Man, looks like you seem very unhappy? Why not give me the book, so you can go back to your Eastern European play-king-at-home game and not get your ass kicked by your Uncle Tony.”
Tony grinned, saying to Doctor Doom.
“Doom never retreats.”
A cold voice filled with mechanical texture came from Doom's mask, and in the next instant, the two fought fiercely again in the airflow.
Bottom of the tower.
“Shua!”
Deep red chains, accompanied by a crisscrossing silver-white net, wrapped around the Elemental Giant.
The Crimson Bands of Cyttorak, and Shimizu's magic weapon, the Net of Shro'a'des.
The former is an auxiliary to the latter, as the latter has the ability to absorb energy and capture spiritual bodies.
This is precisely the nemesis of elemental lifeforms.
Now that the Elemental Giant has been temporarily crippled by his own full-force attack, it's a good opportunity to use the Web of Wyrd.
This magical artifact contains intelligence and is of a high level. After experiencing Shimizu's chakra enhancement and the nurturing of the Mind Stone, it appears even more extraordinary.
At this moment, driven by the power of a multi-universal deity borrowed from the Vishanti, coupled with magic borrowed from the dimensional demon god Cyttorak, even a Skyfather-level powerhouse would feel uncomfortable drinking a pot of it, let alone the weaker, completely restrained Elemental Giant.
A few minutes later.
Three dim and lusterless runestones fell to the ground, wrapped in the Web of Wyrd, swaying and floating towards Shimizu, looking drunk.
Too much energy, they're stuffed.
After putting away the Web of Wyrd and the three runestones, Shimizu raised his head to look at the sky, feeling the remaining magic power belonging to the dimensional demon god within his body.
Not a lot, but not a little either.
Without error, one head, one shot, one inside, one face, one in, one look!
Enough for a big one.
So Shimizu raised one hand towards the sky, while moving to the staircase, quickly ascending to the top floor.
Flames so hot that they caused slight distortions in space condensed in his palm, and in an instant, they exploded towards Doom's position.
"Flames of the Faltine!"
The surging flame energy could not be ignored even by Doctor Doom.
"Sedriss Crystals."
A yellow rectangular crystal appeared out of thin air, blocking the power from the ancient and mysterious Faltine dimension.
The moment the two magics collided, an explosion occurred.
As the explosion sounded, Shimizu retreated sharply, avoiding the aftermath.
Doom turned his metal-masked face, glanced at Shimizu, and then at Tony, who had seized the opportunity to grab the book.
Since the former was here, it meant that his subordinates and those elemental spirits had already been eliminated by him.
Whether it was the commotion he had sensed before or the astonishing power of the Flames of the Faltine just now, it showed that this person was very strong and definitely not ordinary.
Now that the book had fallen into Stark's hands, it would be very difficult to snatch it. If the two enemies joined forces, even if he was God Emperor Doom, he would have to pay a certain price to retreat unscathed.
There was no need to continue fighting.
But he still had to say some harsh words.
"Don't think you've already won, Stark. Doom will never fail. No one can escape the revenge of the great Doom."
Doom looked at Tony coldly and said.
"Bang!"
A palm repulsor blast accurately hit Doom, blasting him into pieces of metal debris.
"I knew he was using a spatial displacement performed by a clone. He must have already hidden outside the tower now."
Stark retracted his smoking palm cannon, regretting.
"Then shall we continue chasing?"
"I'm afraid it's difficult. Whether it's me or Doom, even if the universe is destroyed, we can't be killed as long as we want to leave."
Tony shook his head and said.
He was a genius, one in a billion, and full of confidence in himself.
And so was Doom.
He was one of the few people who could make Tony feel like he was on the same level in terms of intelligence.
Shimizu's gaze fell on the silver pages in Tony's hand.
"This is the Book of the Vishanti?"
Shimizu stepped forward, examined the book, and opened the first page.
It displayed patterns of runes, and with the action of him opening the page, a vast and complex amount of information surged into his brain along with his spirit.
Shimizu felt a slight stinging pain in his head.
This book had been imbued with peculiar magic.
A large amount of information within it was not carried in the form of text or images, but rather in the form of a mental transmission similar to telepathy.
The pinnacle work of a legendary archmage whose strength could rival that of a dimensional demon god contained an amount of information that no ordinary object could carry, nor could ordinary people accept.
The pain became more and more intense, and Shimizu hurriedly cast a sealing technique, patted his head, sealed most of the information, and waited to slowly unseal and read it after digesting the rest.
The amount of knowledge contained within was too vast.
"This book has a total of seventy pages. What you just saw was the basic rune content about elements. The first ten pages are all about that, and the following also contain content about life, mystery, mind, energy, matter, time, and space."
Shimizu rubbed his head, his eyes becoming more and more pleasantly surprised.
This is a good thing!
"You finished reading it?"
"No, my brain definitely can't take it either, but the table of contents is written on the back of the book. Maybe writing the table of contents on the back is a habit of the Antowah people."
Tony flipped the book over and pointed to a line of strange symbols on it.
These symbols were the writing of the Antowah people, but a magic had been applied to them, which could be transformed into the language most recently used by the viewer.
"Then this book…"
"I know, you want this book, but actually your Uncle Tony also wants it."
Shimizu looked at Tony with suspicious eyes.
"Don't look at me like that. Although I'm still very handsome and young, I'm actually forty-seven years old. You must not be over thirty yet. I'm old enough to be your uncle."
Tony held out a finger to Shimizu.
"Then as an uncle, you should understand the principle that elders should be modest to juniors, right?"
"Ah ha, you actually called me uncle! Actually, I'm only thirty-seven!"
Damn you!
Tony laughed, put the book in front of Shimizu, and said:
"I know you came here for this book, but we were able to get this book, and my contribution is definitely no less than yours. Relying on you alone, there is definitely no way to snatch this book from Doom's hands."
Shimizu stared at Tony with dead fish eyes.
"But without me, could you have gotten this book from Doom's hands?"
"I know, I know, little nephew, so this is what I'm planning."
Tony held out a finger to Shimizu.
"The ownership of this book belongs to both of us. With the Vishanti as witnesses, both parties will take turns borrowing it every other year, and when one party has an emergency, it can be used temporarily. If both parties need it, then let the Vishanti decide who needs it more and then hand it over to them, how about it?"
"Sounds fair, but since you drafted the conditions, then the first year belongs to me, how about it?"
"Okay, just consider it an uncle's concession to his nephew."
Tony winked.
