Starting as a Class Five Mutant-Chapter 457 -

"Eternity..."

Thanos murmured.

A memory surfaced in his mind, filling him with astonishment.

The Eternity mentioned by Ebony Maw was not just any deity. Unlike the native gods of Asgard, this was a true cosmic god!

It was said that Eternity was the personification of a cosmic phenomenon—an abstract entity made manifest, an existence beyond comprehension.

Just how powerful must such a being be?

Thanos pondered for a long time but could not even begin to fathom what it meant for a cosmic phenomenon to take form. He even found it difficult to believe.

Recalling this incomprehensible information, Thanos hesitated before asking, "The Eternity you speak of—is it the rumored entity that embodies a cosmic abstraction?"

Hearing this, Ebony Maw nodded and said, "This being once made a promise—whoever lays eyes on it first shall be granted a single wish."

"Thanos, my lord, if you are the first to meet Eternity, you could use that wish to accomplish many things—including erasing the Messiah and the White Cloaked Warrior!"

"I believe that with the power of such a cosmic god, achieving this would not be difficult at all."

Listening to Ebony Maw's words, Thanos did not doubt whether such an abstract cosmic entity was capable of this feat.

Since it had made such a promise, it would surely not go back on its word. Whoever saw it first would definitely be granted a wish.

With this thought in mind, Thanos's eyes burned with desire as he asked, "How can I find this Eternity?"

Under the gazes of Thanos and the Black Order, Ebony Maw slowly spoke, "My lord, this great entity exists in a place that is extremely difficult for us to reach."

"To get there, we need to use a particular object."

"What object?" Thanos asked, puzzled.

"Asgard's Bifröst," Ebony Maw replied.

Meanwhile, on Earth.

[+1 Chaos Magic Experience]

Syd continued practicing Chaos Magic, red energy flickering around his hands.

[Ability: Chaos Magic (1089/2000) Level 4]

"Too slow..."

Syd sighed.

Like Sunshine, Chaos Magic was proving difficult to level up.

Moreover, the energy of the Space Stone could not be used to practice Chaos Magic.

This limitation made progress frustratingly slow.

Compared to abilities like Black Particles, which improved rapidly, Chaos Magic was an uphill battle. If it advanced at the same speed, he would have reached Level 5 already.

Syd couldn't help but reminisce about those faster advancements.

"I wonder how many more days it will take... and—"

His attention shifted to the progress of unlocking Baldur's abilities.

The progress bar was close to 100%, but it wasn't there yet.

Would he awaken a new ability during the process?

Would he unlock Baldur's Omega ability?

Even Syd couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation.

"What kind of Omega ability does Baldur possess?"

Just as he was pondering this, a unique presence descended upon Earth.

A man clad in minimalistic battle armor, his bronze skin glistening under the sun, stepped onto the city streets. His muscular body and wild hair made him look primal, almost beastly. In his grip was a golden lightning-shaped weapon, shimmering with divine light.

As soon as he appeared, he was noticed by pedestrians.

"My god..."

Seeing this sudden arrival, many screamed and ran in terror.

Within moments, more than half of the people on the street had fled, leaving only those who were either brave or too curious for their own good.

After all, given recent events—the Sentinel attack and the Messiah's appearance—people had grown wary.

They didn't want to let their guard down, only to be killed by this unexpected figure, who seemed to possess teleportation or spatial abilities.

One particularly fearless bearded man, a burly white guy, studied him curiously and asked, "Bro, what kind of power is this? So cool—you just appeared out of nowhere! Are you a mutant?"

Gesturing animatedly, he continued, "And that outfit... looks ancient. Did you just come from a costume party?"

"Greek style? Is Greek fashion trending now?"

As he chattered on, the people who had stayed behind glanced at him with admiration for his audacity.

Meanwhile, the newly arrived man—Hercules—understood his words and responded directly, "A mutant? No, I am a god of Olympus."

The moment he spoke, everyone— including the chatty man, Simon—was stunned.

"Olympus?"

"A god?"

A deity from Greek mythology?

Impossible...

Then again, if Asgardian gods had shown up, why not the Greek ones?

"Bro, are you sure you're not joking?" Simon asked, unable to contain himself.

Hercules didn't bother answering. Instead, he asked, "I'm looking for someone. Do you know where the Messiah is?"

The Messiah?

The stunned crowd instantly tensed up, their eyes filled with fear.

Simon quickly said, "We don't know! If you're looking for the Messiah, you should ask the police."

Without waiting for a response, he turned and left in a hurry.

The others, seeing this, also bolted.

They had no choice—just hearing the name Messiah sent chills down their spines.

Seeing them scatter, Hercules frowned.

Fortunately, he had prepared for this.

Reaching to his waist, he pulled out a red compass. The device's needle spun rapidly.

This artifact, forged by Hephaestus, had the ability to locate people.

In the next second, an image flashed through his mind—Messiah, dressed in black, standing in space above Earth.

Soon, the compass needle stopped spinning and pointed in a fixed direction.

Hercules's eyes brightened with excitement. "Hephaestus truly makes remarkable artifacts!"

With that, he retrieved a palm-sized red wing from his waist—another artifact Hephaestus had lent him for tracking the Messiah.

In the next instant, the wing expanded and attached itself to his back.

With a powerful flap, a gust of wind surged forth, and in a blur, Hercules vanished into the sky, leaving only a faint afterimage behind.

Now, he was flying at supersonic speed toward the Messiah's location.

Moments after he disappeared, S.H.I.E.L.D. and other agencies arrived, having received reports from the citizens.

Scanning the area and seeing nothing, Agent Coulson, dressed in a black suit, sighed—this was going to be trouble.
