Contrary to Lucas's expectations, Morlun and the Blood God did not directly escape back to the Dimension of Blood. Instead, they went to another cloning base of the Inheritors.
Inside the base, Morlun saw Solus's backup body had no reaction, so he operated the instruments. After a long time, he still couldn't find Solus's soul fluctuations. Morlun couldn't help but become increasingly panicked and restless.
Helpless, he could only seek help from the Blood God, "My God, why hasn't my father's soul returned?"
The Blood God said in a deep voice, "Your father's soul was taken by Sorcerer Spider-Man."
The Blood God was also very distressed at this moment. A powerful subordinate he had just subdued was gone just like that.
Morlun humbly pleaded, "My God, can you help me retrieve my father's soul?"
The Blood God nodded. "Don't worry, I won't give up on your father."
Although Solus's defeat was very sudden, the combat power he displayed still made the Blood God quite satisfied.
In the Blood God's view, Solus's failure was not his problem. A sudden high-speed meteor was not something a normal carbon-based life form could resist.
Unless Solus was strengthened by him, transformed into a Blood, and possessed the characteristics of an energy body.
At that time, Solus would have extremely high resistance to physical damage. Only then would it be possible to withstand the impact of the meteor.
"Then what should we do now?" Morlun asked cautiously.
The Blood God was not polite and instructed, "I can sense that Solus's soul is still in this Universe. Figure out a way to contact other members of the Inheritors and have them go to the Dimension of Blood to accept my strengthening."
"Afterward, my avatar will lead them together to descend upon this Universe and crusade against Sorcerer Spider-Man."
"As you command, My God."
Morlun dared not defy the Blood God and immediately sent messages to the members of the Inheritors again.
He informed them of Solus's defeat and the family facing annihilation. He also ordered the others to immediately put aside their current matters and go to the Dimension of Blood to meet the Blood God.
Seeing Morlun act so obedient, the Blood God smiled with satisfaction. "Morlun, you can also go to the Dimension of Blood for strengthening."
In fact, in the Blood God's plan, there was only one main combat force to save Solus's soul, and that was his avatar.
As for transforming the other members of the Inheritors into Bloods, that was just a convenient side task.
As for the promise to Solus?
Times change.
Once he retrieves Solus's soul, he will do some fiddling and even Solus will be his.
...
Through a mysterious magic circle and a period of teleportation, Morlun arrived at the Dimension of Blood.
Lucas looked through Morlun's perspective. The Dimension of Blood was a crimson expanse.
In the sky, there was a Blood Moon. The moonlight it cast was all crimson.
Soon, Morlun arrived at the Blood God's palace.
The Blood God's palace covered the entire mountain range, full of Vampire style. Clearly, even after becoming a Dimensional Lord, the Blood God did not forget his origin
In the Blood God's palace, the other members of the Inheritors were already gathered.
The Blood God's ethereal voice descended from high above. "My apostles, do you crave power?"
The Inheritors knelt on one knee, crossed their arms over their chests, and bowed their heads, saying, "My God, please grant us power."
"Convert to the Blood race." The Blood God's voice resounded.
"Convert to the Blood race." The Inheritors repeated.
"Convert to the Dimension of Blood."
"Convert to the Blood God."
After three declarations of conversion, the Blood Moon high in the sky shone brightly.
The crimson moonlight condensed into a blood pillar, enveloping the Inheritors in the palace. Within the blood pillar, the bodies and souls of the Inheritors were undergoing transformation.
The various totem powers absorbed by the Inheritors began to dissolve under the Blood God's power, eventually fusing. They fused into a special crimson energy, primarily based on the power of the Vampire race.
Suddenly, the Blood Moon high in the sky opened its eyes.
Its eyes revealed surprise.
He was right, the Inheritors and his power were the most compatible.
In the Blood God's perception, the aura of every member of the Inheritors was growing exponentially.
Morlun, whose strength was originally far inferior to Solus, grew to a level close to Solus.
And the other Inheritors strengthened to a level close to the original Morlun.
With such a team of Inheritors subservient to him, the Blood God felt that his rule in the Dimension of Blood could be further consolidated.
A moment later, the strengthening ended.
The Inheritors prostrated themselves on the ground, wholeheartedly shouting.
"Convert to the Blood race!"
"Convert to the Dimension of Blood!"
"Convert to the Blood God!"
After three declarations of conversion, the Inheritors' tone changed.
It became fierce and full of malevolence.
"Kill Sorcerer Spider-Man! Save the patriarch!"
The Blood God responded to his apostles, "Kill Sorcerer Spider-Man! Save Solus!"
Rumble!
The earth shook.
Suddenly, the entire mountain range rose from the ground.
This was clearly an avatar of the Blood God.
And the original palace became an embellishment on the avatar's armor.
Boom!
Bursting out of the Dimension of Blood, the Blood God headed in the direction of Solus's soul aura.
Just as the Inheritors suddenly left the current Universe, Miguel of the Web Slingers discovered an anomaly.
Although he didn't understand what was happening, nor did he know the details of the event, he keenly sensed that this must be related to a certain Spider-Man.
Miguel quickly contacted Cosmic Spider-Man of Earth-13.
This was the strongest Spider-Man he knew.
No.
He then contacted Toei Spider-Man.
Not him either.
Finally, he contacted Sorcerer Spider-Man's friend, Ghost-Spider.
"So, a while ago, you ambushed Morlun of the Inheritors on Earth-65."
"Sorcerer Spider-Man defeated Morlun and controlled Morlun. He wanted to use Morlun to gather the members of the Inheritors to encircle him."
"And then, he would wipe out the Inheritors in one fell swoop?" Miguel's voice revealed disbelief.
Even the strongest Spider-Man in his knowledge, Cosmic Spider-Man, only protected the Spider-Men who fled to Earth-13 from being hunted by the Inheritors. He never thought of proactively attacking and eliminating the Inheritors.
"Sorcerer Spider-Man is righteous!"
After his exclamation, Miguel told Gwen and Spider-UK the news he had just received.
"The Inheritors have left various Universes and their whereabouts are currently unknown. It's very likely that they have already gathered to encircle Sorcerer Spider-Man."
"We must go support Sorcerer Spider-Man, we cannot let him fight alone."
"Good!"
Spider-UK, Spider-Man Noir, Peni, and Spider-Ham nodded heavily.
"Alright." Gwen also nodded.
She understood Lucas's strength and had great confidence in him. But seeing Miguel and the others speak so passionately, she didn't want to spoil the atmosphere.
