The situation was the worst possible. Quicksilver could devastate a city in less than a minute.
As already mentioned, Hunger is an intelligent virus. It chooses its hosts while allowing those with above-average characteristics to remain active, preventing its hosts from eating them completely. As for the others, it simply doesn't matter.
Hulk landed with a loud crash in a city, grabbing several people with his now gigantic hands and swallowing them whole. For some reason, no matter how much they ate, there was always room for more. This would change in the future, but for now, hunger was infinite.
The most unpleasant thing about this situation was that the superheroes didn't lose their powers and consciousness. The hunger was simply too much to control. The flesh tasted so good that they were like crack addicts. No matter how much love or respect you felt for a person, it was never enough to avoid hunger. This created situations so painful and cruel that they were simply inhuman.
Quicksilver arrived in Europe... he had razed everything in his path and crossed the sea in a straight line, appearing to want to spread the virus worldwide.
"It's so delicious..." Quicksilver thought as he savored the flesh of a ten thousand people he had bitten at the last minute. He knew he couldn't eat anyone completely. He knew that if he bit more than once, he would end up filling up before reaching Asia. "Ahh~"
It was simply delicious. Despite having been a superhero not long ago, he couldn't think of saving, helping, or protecting. In his mind, there was only the taste of flesh sliding down his palate and permeating his taste buds...
The zombie Quicksilver, once called Pietro Maximoff, now was just this. "I can feel it, after biting millions of people... I think I prefer women's meat-"
It all started with a flash in the sky and a rumble...
It has always been like this. Hunger is brought by Sentry. Decades pass, and the universe is devoured. Then, in an attempt to find more food, they try to repair a device to cross dimensions. This leads them to the universe where Sentry originated.
Many things happen, and Hulk tricks Sentry into infecting him. Sentry becomes a monster, and Hank Pym tries to use his power of a million suns to operate Uatu's dimensional travel device, to eat. It's always for that purpose, to keep eating entirely, to consume the multiverse.
However, it was all a deception. Jack Pym mistakenly believed he had killed the Uatu (The watcher) upon arriving on Earth 911-26 but he deceived him, and all this time, he had been futilely trying to decipher his technology.
As a result, Sentry was sent to Earth 21-49, and the end became the beginning.
This loop has continued countless times. This threat was so great that Uatu the Watcher was forced to intervene.
Hunger cannot be released!
If it takes sacrificing two universes for that, so be it. There are an infinite number of universes...
...
Quicksilver looked at the sky, with his speed that had nothing to envy a DC speedster except for the ability to travel back in time and cross dimensions, he was able to see something approaching.
It moved so fast. Yes, even from Quicksilver's point of view, something was approaching really fast.
"What-?"
It all started with a flash, but this time there was a second flash in the sky a few hours after it all started.
Pietro looked with disbelief at a pair of silver eyes with a fixed and terrifying gaze upon him. It was already there! In an instant, it was upon Quicksilver.
Pietro wanted to react, but as if Allen knew what he was going to do, his sword was already descending. Pietro Maximoff, having lost his humanity, fully regained his consciousness for a moment to see the figure of his executioner.
"Stop my sister-" He whispered between an undeserved petition and a plea for forgiveness. He asked for only one thing: that they stop his sister. He knows what the Scarlet Witch is capable of.
The sword fell heavily, splitting the city in half. Unfortunately, most people in this city were already dead even before they realized it, but this marked a breath of relief. Facing a zombie with the ability to kill so fast that you are not even able to react was a doom for humanity.
Allen let out a heavy sigh.
How many people had died until this moment?
'Don't think about it!'
Are there any acquaintances you could save?!
'Don't get distracted!'
He knew it... thinking about something would simply cloud his judgment... he knew it, his personal preferences, his desires, even his anger must be controlled... He must focus... he must be practical and efficient.
Who should he stop? Who is probably the most powerful and dangerous enemy? As a result of that way of thinking, then using green and reducing the distance to zero, Allen entered the earth, and with it, the system was able to take action. In an instant, Allen located the Zombies he needed to stop instantly, and they were the fastest and the most powerful.
Without them, humans might have a chance... Yes, they might.
Since he arrived in this universe, something was pressing on Allen's heart and soul. It was as if the world itself didn't like his actions, but that wouldn't stop him.
Allen's gaze focused on Manhattan Island. In all this time, many superheroes hadn't left there, which was strange to Allen because he should be traveling the world to end it all.
Allen had the system search for them, and he found them gathered in one place. When the image appeared, although censored for viewers, many couldn't help but vomit.
Dr. Strange, along with the sorcerers of the Kamar-Taj, created portals all over the world. After all, most of them are not Quicksilver and cannot simply run over the sea.
Allen felt his stomach churn, but he found his second objective: to finish off Dr. Strange and the Kamar-Taj.
The system opened its own portal to New York, or what was left of it... Unlike zombie apocalypses on TV, there was no chance of survival.
Mutants with great detention capabilities like Sabertooth and Wolverine could easily smell out those who were hiding.
Those who fly like Angel, Vulture, Nova, etc., soared through the skies to identify those trying to escape. There was no chance.
Allen stood silently in the sky. He couldn't feel the ki of anyone alive... In his eyes, there was only a cold emptiness as he watched the Machiavellian acts of the superheroes.
...
While the madness of the flesh continued, the cameras pointed at Hank Pym. He separated himself from the other zombies while dragging Black Panther, put him in a laboratory, and placed him on a table.
"Stop, Hank..." Black Panther said, in pain from several broken bones.
"I'm sorry, friend, I don't know how to keep my consciousness, the hunger is too uncontrollable and doesn't let me think. If my estimates are correct, in less than twenty-four hours the world will have ended. In a few days, there will be no edible food left, that's why I need you!"
T'Challa looked at the man he once respected for his brilliant mind. He was no longer Ant-Man, not even human anymore, just a zombie addicted to flesh. The heart of the King of Wakanda fell into an abyss. So many heroes, so many friends, now they were just these things!
"I'm sorry... but if I'm hungry, I can't think, that's why I need to keep you alive now, so when the food runs out, I can keep my consciousness..."
Everyone in the chat realized Ant-Man's intentions.
"It just tastes so good..." Hank Pym murmured, horrifying everyone.
The man dressed in a red and black superhero suit, with a terrifying face showing his deformed teeth, smiled involuntarily. He grabbed a saw from one of the tables.
Hank Pym didn't realize he had already lost something important as a human.
"Don't worry, I promise I'll find a cure," he said as he approached Black Panther, then took the saw and began to cut off one of T'Challa's arms.
"AHHHHGG!"
The King of Wakanda endured the pain for a moment, but he couldn't bear it.
In Allen's universe, a Hank Pym who was barely experienced with the quantum world ran to his bathroom and vomited, unable to believe what he was seeing. It was traumatic to see the monster that was a version of himself.
"I beg you, Allen, kill that bastard..."
...
Allen had cameras monitoring the movements of all superheroes and supervillains. He knew that every second people were dying, but he couldn't let his guard down. Unlike his universe, in this one, there were countless people he didn't know, and some seemed very strong. Perhaps some had abilities that could harm him. Allen decided to be cold. As much as he wanted to lend a hand to the man with Hank Pym, there was a great obstacle before him...
"Who are you?" Allen asked the man floating in front of him.
"I am Sentry... the one who possesses the power of a million suns," said Sentry as he observed Allen, searching in his memories unsuccessfully. The man had the same dark gaze, pale skin, and sharp teeth, but now with blood staining his mouth and neck. "I have lived a lot, and I've been in two universes. I've fought with everything you can fight, and I've never seen or heard of anyone like you... who are you?" Sentry's voice sounded deep and inhuman.
Even after decades as a zombie, he decayed in life constantly, but endlessly, because no matter how much time passed, they wouldn't rot completely. However, saying they were alive is complicated since they could remain active even after being split in half.
"..." Allen didn't respond to Sentry. Instead, he looked at the man's hand, which had a half-eaten leg.
Allen closed his eyes, "You... no longer... I see."
Unlike the zombies in the movies, these ones had consciousness but even so, it was impossible to see them as people.
Sentry analyzed his opponent "Everything-"
Unable to finish his words, Sentry's face was grabbed by Allen's hand, who was already standing beside him.
"Dismantle..."
Sentry was struck by dozens of cuts as he recoiled. Angry, Sentry emitted power from his body in all directions, freeing himself from the attack.
"..." With no time to react, Allen's boot was already on his face, generating a shockwave that sent Sentry flying out of New York.
His attention turned directly to Dr. Strange. Strange and all the sorcerers of Kamar-Taj summoned rings on their hands, it was their magic, and they were ready to fight.
Allen appeared on Dr. Strange's back and clasped his hands together as tattoos appeared on his body. "Domain Expansion... Malevolent Shrine!"
In an instant, more than a hundred sorcerers were cut to pieces. Strange managed to defend himself and summoned the Eye of Agamotto with the Time Infinity Stone.
Allen was surprised to see his mastery frozen, he looked at Dr. Strange and the stone. Feeling a bad premonition, Allen used the Hakai without hesitation, but as his hand pointed at Strange, something moved his hand in another direction."My infinity was disabled?!" With his words, a woman enveloped in red energy looked at him from a distance, it was the Scarlet Witch.
"I guess she's the older sister..." Allen teleported to the sky and gathered ki in his hands, since there were no living people in this place, he would send everything flying Dragon Ball style.
At that moment, Sentry appeared and fired a massive solar energy beam that enveloped him. Allen shielded himself with Clown Crown. Sentry's attack was so powerful that the energy left the planet. Saying he hoped they were strong was an understatement.
Portals formed around Allen from Dr. Strange...The Hulk zombies, Thor, Nova, The Thing, Human Torch, Venom, Wolverine, and Cyclops appeared around him.
Allen remained calm and cold at all times, but his gaze focused on Hulk."So long seeking not to be seen as a monster, and now you throw it away ?!"
"HULK HUNGRY! HULK EAT SHINY MAN!!!"
Hulk pounced on Allen with both fists like hammers, but Allen was faster and kicked him in the mouth, dislocating his jaw.
This stunned the green giant as he was sent flying through several buildings.
"Thor, son of Odin, what a mockery!" Allen appeared in front of Thor and placed his hand on the ancient god's chest. "Red."
Nova, who had a distinctive star-shaped helmet on his head, fired his powers in the form of energy beams.
A shield blocked them. Allen looked at him and pointed a finger, then a burst of ki pierced through him.
Wolverine fell on Allen's sword. The Scarlet Witch was doing her best to restrict his powers, so Allen could barely use his cursed energy, haki, although, on the other hand, she couldn't restrict his magic and ki.
The fact that the witch was capable of interfering with his powers was already ridiculous.
Allen was starting to get impatient. If it weren't for the survivors, he would have simply blown up this planet.
...
Tony – Wait!
"Hm?"
