Xu Fu smiled and shook his head: The eagle eye on Horus's scepter is real.
Indeed, they are the eyes of Horus, the eagle god, which is why, when activated by the meteorite, they granted special abilities to Fandral Savage, Hugh, and Triara.
For four thousand years, the Eagle Woman and the Eagle Man have been reincarnated repeatedly, while Fandral Savage has been killing them both.
Take the power of their reincarnations and feed it to Horus's scepter.
“Nonsense, that’s impossible! The power of the Divine Eagle is paramount!” Fandral Savage was furious. He reached out for the Scepter of Horus, trying to take it back.
However, the usually obedient scepter of Horus now seemed to be completely disobedient, ignoring Fandral Savage's advice.
Everyone looked at Savage with expressions as if they had swallowed a fly, and couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Xu Fu waved to Superman, "Bring me a meteorite; it can weaken the savage's resurgence ability... Tell me, is anyone against me killing him?"
Batman remained silent, while Superman looked up at Wayne Enterprises' orbiting satellite in the distance.
"Why don't we kill him? Vandal-Savich has killed us two hundred and six times already! If we don't kill him, he'll just keep doing it!" Eagle Girl grabbed Eagle Man's hand and said excitedly.
“And he just threatened to blow up Central City,” Arthur Curry added.
“If you kill him this time, will his immortality end?” Batman asked.
Xu Fu shook his head. "Savage's resurrection mechanism is extremely complex. One death won't weaken him completely; you need to kill him at least three times on the meteor!"
“This means he will be resurrected, yes... this is not killing!” Batman sighed.
As time goes on, more and more monsters and superpowers appear, and Batman realizes that his "no-kill policy" is no longer applicable in today's world.
Perhaps some prisoners can still be locked up, but this immortal being can use the characteristics of a mortal runner to escape from prison, even if he is caught.
"You think you've defeated me?"
Vandal Savage suddenly pulled out an ancient Egyptian dagger, slashed his wrist, and then smeared the blood on his eyes.
Ancient and complex incantations flew swiftly from his mouth.
"What is he saying?"
Aquaman felt his trident of Poseidon twitch slightly and asked in confusion.
"He summoned the true god Horus to descend to earth!" Xu Fu noticed that above Horus's scepter, the eyes of the falcon god's statue were shining brightly, and the halo of the true god descended with a terrifying aura! Xu Fu said, "I don't know."
“Xu Fu, aren’t you going to stop him?” Mela felt this was her best chance to defeat Vandal-Savich.
Xu Fu waved his hand, urging everyone not to act rashly, and said, looking at the clouds gathering in the sky.
"Ares, the god of war, said that after Ragnarok, all the ancient gods on Earth died, and only he was still alive. If the ancient gods of this world really died, then what did the savages cause?"
As they talked, everyone turned to look at them with curiosity, because Superman knew that Xu Fu was also a god, so he was fearless.
Within the energy storm, Fandral Savage's voice chanted incantations faster and faster, his life force flowing wildly, including the energy from killing Hawke Hawkman 206 times over.
If the summoning ritual continues, perhaps all his efforts over the past four thousand years will be in vain! At that moment, Fandral Savage's voice rang out, "I miss you."
But at this point, Vandal-Savich had to continue, not wanting to diminish his immortality, because once he lost it, he could never make up for it again.
Furthermore, there are certain limitations on rebirth.
"...I pray that Horus, the guardian of the Pharaoh, the symbol of kingship, the falcon god, the god of the heavenly eye, will come!"
Vandal Savage used almost all his strength to shout out the last few incantations. After he finished, his hair turned white instantly, transforming him from someone in his forties into someone with completely white hair.
The energy vortex in the sky roared like thunder, and suddenly a holy light emanated from it.
Through this light, Xu Fu and the others could vaguely see the golden desert and the enormous pyramids standing in it!
“This is…”
Xu Fu's lips twitched, unable to determine whether what he was seeing was an illusion or reality.
The pyramids flashed by, and the sky was covered by dark clouds saturated with magical energy, producing many lightning bolts.
".. information!!!"
A loud eagle cry seemed to echo through the crowd.
When the convergence of magical energy in the clouds reaches its limit.
A gigantic golden eagle burst forth from the clouds, accompanied by a thunderous explosion. The giant eagle landed on the ground and transformed into a three-meter-tall eagle-headed man clad in golden armor.
Horus, the falcon god, stood up and stood before Xu Fu and his group, spreading his wings, which seemed to be cast in gold and shimmered in the sunlight.
"Omega!!"
Aquaman Arthur hesitated for a moment, even though he had recently become the mythical king of Atlantis, ruling over the seven seas.
But now, as the true god descended before him, Arthur Curry still experienced a moment of ecstasy.
“Mortal, this is not yours!” (Ancient Egyptian)
The first thing Horus, the falcon god, did after descending to earth was to reach out his hand to Xu Fu.
Xu Fu was still holding Horus's scepter. Just as Horus, the falcon god, reached out his hand, the two gems embedded in the golden eagle's eye on the scepter suddenly flew out and returned to Horus's eye.
The next second, Horus's eyes flashed with a dazzling light, shining like two suns, stinging the retinas of those around him.
"I am Horus, the god of the sky, son of Osiris, king of the underworld. I have the power to control the kings of the world; you mortals must submit to the supreme power of the king and bask in the light of the gods!" (Ancient Egyptian)
As soon as Horus finished speaking, the radiant power of the gods rushed into the crowd, eager to force the few people present to their knees.
Peora, Kara, Aquaman, and Mera, who were present, used their physical abilities to resist Horus's divine power, while Batman ultimately remained in his mortal form.
As he listened to Horus's words, although he did not understand what the other was saying, his body involuntarily wanted to kneel down.
Batman gritted his teeth, using all his strength to hold on, determined to die rather than kneel!
Chapter 397 Deep-seated Hatred
Under Horus's divine power, only Fandral Savage was present and knelt in worship.
“Great God, I am your most faithful servant, High Priest Fandal-Savic. These mortals have blasphemed your name. Descend upon your divine power and execute them!” (Ancient Egyptian)
Fandral Savage's life force dried up, and he turned into an old man with gray hair, kneeling at the feet of Horus, the falcon god, humming a song.
But the wild god ignored his pleas. Horus, the falcon god, merely glanced at him briefly before fixing his gaze on Xu Fu and the others.
In Horus's memory, whenever his divine power was amplified even slightly, mortals would kneel before him.
But instead of kneeling before him, these people were...filled with hostility towards him?
These hostile attitudes originated with Batman.
Batman's body involuntarily collapsed to his knees, but his powerful willpower refused to allow him to take that step. He gritted his teeth and persevered, naturally harboring a deep hatred for Horus.
Even Batman has begun to consider developing an "Anti-Horus Armor".
"Batman, don't panic!"
Xu Fu walked to Batman's side, patted him on the shoulder, and his divine power transformed into a trickle, enveloping Batman and protecting him from the influence of Horus's power.
"Thank you!"
Batman felt a sudden lightness in his body. After thinking for a moment, he realized what had happened and gave Xu Fu a grateful look.
“Mortal…no, there’s a familiar feeling about you…you are gods too…and you! (Ancient Egyptian)”
When Horus, the falcon god, sensed the same divine presence in Xu Fu and Arthur Curry, his eyes flashed with a blinding light, like a glowing light bulb.
However, Xu Fu and Arthur belong to the Greek gods, while Horus, the falcon god, belongs to the ancient Egyptian gods.
Both share the same divine origin, but their forms are indeed very different.
The gods of the ancient Egyptian pantheon were clad in golden armor, and their blood was like molten gold. In terms of martial arts, they were more skilled in close combat than the Greek gods and were considered true divine warriors.
"Yes, Arthur and I are indeed gods, two of the three remaining gods in this world. Horus, where have you been since Ragnarok? And the world I saw when you descended the mountain... was it real or an illusion?" (Ancient Egyptian)
Xu Fu spoke to Horus in the ancient Egyptian language to avoid communication barriers.
What truly troubled him was the origin of Horus; after all, Ares, the god of war, had told him that after twilight there would be no more gods on earth.
"I come from the central royal court, from the temple of Letopolis!" Horus's voice was loud and clear.
"However... the central royal court of ancient Egypt was destroyed by a meteorite four thousand years ago..."
Xu Fu tilted his head, gestured for Horus, the Eagle God, to look around, and then said, "Welcome to the 21st century!"
Upon hearing this, Horus, the falcon god, became stunned. He then looked around, his two large eyes like light bulbs, capable of seeing tens of thousands of miles of land in a single glance.
From a single glance, Horus, the falcon god, was lost in confusion.
The mortals were still the same mortals, only their skin color and clothes had changed. Almost everyone held a glowing object in their hands, either talking to themselves or giggling, as if they were controlling their own thoughts.
There are also unfamiliar skyscrapers and large, fast-moving metal boxes.
Horus, the falcon god, was filled with many new things, yet he was also trapped in a vicious cycle of self-doubt and self-denial. He tried to look away, but he was constantly drawn to, awestruck by, and stunned by these new things.
"No! No! This is all an illusion! You're a wizard, you're the one who's deceiving me!"
Horus, the falcon god, seemed even more bewildered than Xu Fu. He held his head in his hands, unable to accept the destruction of the central dynasty.
He only wanted to vent his anger, so he unleashed his divine power haphazardly, causing the ground to shake and turning the faces of everyone present pale. Then, the wings on his back flapped, and he flew headlong towards the central city.
"Damn it, stop!"
Superman's face was grim. Under the pressure of Horus's divine power, he still felt very uncomfortable. If he flew into the city, mortals would definitely be crushed into bloody dust by the surging divine power.
