323. Temporal Radiation!
323. Temporal Radiation!
"It's impossible to stop now. No one will back down until either they're killed or their enemies are," Kate said grimly, looking toward the battlefield.
Several members of the Royal Guard had already fallen. After Fang, Manta, and Warbird were killed one after the other, the Titan also soon met the same fate, falling under the sword of the demon Etrigan.
However, Pulsar and Gladiator, the two most dangerous threats, were still standing. Their destructive power was immense, and either of them could potentially cause the security system of the Baxter Building to collapse, triggering the detonation of the time oscillator.
At that moment, a weak voice suddenly came from the side.
"I... cough, cough... I might be able to teleport everyone out of here..."
Kate turned to see Raven, Rachel Roth, struggling to stand, clutching her injured head.
"Raven, are you okay?"
Seeing her condition, Kate quickly ran over and helped Rachel to her feet. Rachel looked terrible, especially with a wound on her forehead, blood still streaming from where she had hit the ground earlier.
"Don't worry about me. I'm fine, just a little dizzy," Raven shook her head, her gaze firm. "Now's not the time to worry about me. We have to act fast. This place can't hold much longer."
"Teleport everyone? Can you do that in your current condition?" Kate asked worriedly. Forcing a powerful spell could drain a sorcerer's life force, possibly even putting their life at risk.
"I can, but I'll need Constantine's help... Where is he?" Raven suddenly noticed that Constantine was nowhere to be seen on the battlefield. He had been on the frontlines at the start, but had since vanished.
"Looking for me?" A beam of light appeared, and Constantine's figure materialized in front of the two women.
Although Kate was clearly displeased by Constantine's tendency to disappear during battle, Raven didn't comment on it. She knew she'd need his help for what came next, so she swallowed her frustration and spoke.
"If we work together, we should be able to teleport them to the surface."
"Magic isn't that simple. For such a short distance, it should be doable, but there are too many people. That will affect the spell's potency," Constantine replied after a brief moment of thought.
"What if we only teleport a few?" Kate suggested, pointing toward Gladiator, Shazam, Pulsar, and Pietro. "Just them."
"In that case, no problem. Let's get started," Constantine nodded, pulling a playing card from his pocket.
A silver glow appeared on the card's surface, as if a mysterious force was gathering. In the eyes of the mystically attuned, they could even see the space around it subtly ripple.
"You handle those troublesome ones, and Barbara and I will take care of the rest," Kate said. Seeing that she couldn't help much with the spell, she grabbed her dual blades and rushed toward Wolverine's position.
Raven focused on Constantine's card, raising her hands. Dark demonic energy began to radiate from her, intertwining with Constantine's magic, forming a brilliant orb of energy between them. Both of them chanted their incantations, and a mystical aura spread throughout the room.
With their combined effort, the card exploded into a dazzling light, growing brighter and brighter until it filled the entire room. Sensing the glow, everyone shielded their eyes from the blinding radiance.
Gladiator wasn't sure what trick they were trying to pull, but his immense strength left him unafraid. Even though several of his comrades had already fallen, he still didn't take Star-Lord and his allies seriously.
As the light passed, Gladiator felt a breeze and a foul stench hit his nose. When he opened his eyes again, he found himself on the surface, though he wasn't sure when or how it happened.
He wasn't alone. Not far behind him, Pulsar's figure also appeared in a flash of silver light. From the look on his face, Pulsar was equally confused about what had just happened.
"Damn Earth sorcerers! I thought after the Sorcerer Supreme fell, there wouldn't be any more of those tricksters around here," Gladiator growled angrily, especially since he had been gaining the upper hand in the battle just moments before.
"As a... half-sorcerer, I can't just let that comment slide," Shazam's strong figure appeared in front of Gladiator, Billy grinning fiercely. "Come on, let's continue!"
Meanwhile, Pulsar's opponent, Pietro, had also arrived in front of them. However, unlike the others, Pietro hadn't been teleported. Instead, he had transformed into a silver blur and chased them all the way up.
Forced teleportation is an extremely difficult spell. It's completely different from simply opening a portal. This kind of magic is deeply influenced by the surrounding environment, the teleportation distance, and the number of entities being moved.
It's especially challenging to teleport those who are either enormous in size or terrifying in strength. Constantine had originally intended to teleport Pietro and Astra along with the others, but he had clearly underestimated the combat power of Gladiator and Shazam.
Now that the most destructive "troublemakers" had been sent away, the remaining members of the Royal Guard were quickly overwhelmed by the heroes. Warstar could hardly withstand Wolverine's claws and was soon impaled through the head after only a few rounds. The large mech was also neutralized by the anti-Hulk armor.
Although Astra possessed powerful molecular manipulation abilities, they were useless against the hellish demon Etrigan. With the help of Batwoman Kate and Barbara, Etrigan swiftly decapitated her.
"Even though three-on-one isn't exactly knightly, it doesn't matter," Etrigan sheathed his sword and, out of nowhere, produced a flask, from which he began to drink.
"The fight's not over yet. We need to go support Billy and Pietro," Kate reminded him, but Etrigan only gave her the back of his head in response.
"That's your job, not mine," Etrigan muttered, exhaling a small flame to light a cigarette.
"You—" Kate was at a loss for words. She turned her gaze behind her.
Raven had exerted a tremendous amount of demonic energy, and now she was almost completely drained, unable to continue fighting. Barbara, on the other hand, needed to stay behind to recheck the Baxter Building's systems, so she couldn't leave.
"I'll go with you," Logan said, sensing Kate's plan as he quickly approached.
"Wait! The security system is showing that the multiversal time barrier oscillator is going out of control—" Barbara's sudden shout caught everyone's attention.
Almost as if confirming her words, a massive tear appeared in the center of the room. Countless multi-colored particles began to spill out, spreading in all directions.
(Warning! Warning! Sizzle... Be careful, temporal inertia radiation!)
Herbie's sharp electronic voice echoed, its urgent tone making everyone's hearts race.
"What the hell is temporal inertia? And is that radiation harmful to us?" Star-Lord jumped down from the anti-Hulk armor, looking toward Barbara at the computer.
"You're asking me?!"
Barbara's expression was priceless.
Not only had she never dealt with multiverse or timeline phenomena before, but she wasn't even from this world!
