Awakening Kryptonian Bloodline In Marvel.-Chapter 409 - 409: 409: Malrick Ascends to Perfect Genes

Malrick's hands hung loosely at his sides as he floated directly above the Sun, eyes closed in quiet focus. Sunlight streamed through his dark hair, illuminating every strand, and a faint golden glow radiated from his perfectly proportioned body.
At a single moment, Malrick's eyes snapped open.
His height surged upward like bamboo shoots in spring—1.9 meters, 2 meters, 3 meters… soon surpassing limits.
Around the Sun, an energy storm erupted, drawing vast amounts of power toward him, forming a massive vortex. The Space Stone in his inner world released energy in torrents, enveloping every cell in his body.
Malrick's growth escalated wildly—10,000 kilometers, 20,000 kilometers… 90,000 kilometers.
At last, his main body achieved perfect genes. Every cell, every bone joint emitted a faint, sunlight-like radiance.
Perfection differs across beings. The Blacklight Virus had assimilated countless superior genes to adapt to every extreme environment.
Malrick's perfection, by contrast, integrated all Kryptonian traits, granting him limitless potential.
He had fully analyzed trillions of Kryptonian gene templates from the life codex and incorporated them into his own being.
When the final template completed, his genes had multiplied 10,081 times. Every Kryptonian trait in the DCEU was now within him.
Scientists, warriors, generals, judges—any Kryptonian powerhouse from history had a shadow in his body.
Bathed in sunlight, Malrick felt his strength surge at a staggering pace.
In the Starry Sky System, surpassing 10,081 gene iterations signified true perfection. For the Kryptonian bloodline, this breakthrough represented an unparalleled qualitative leap.
Though his realm remained at the peak of World Lord, his body now seemed boundless.
Sunlight accelerated his growth faster than any planetary source, each second compounding upon the last, as if his power were accruing like interest in a cosmic bank.
"Perhaps I could become a Golden Superman," Malrick murmured.
"Though I would still require tens of thousands of years in sunlight, like the Sorcerer Supreme in 'DC One Million,' before full transformation."
He extended his massive limbs once more in front of the Sun.
Despite his 90,000-kilometer frame, he felt no discomfort. Beyond limitless strength and accelerating growth, nothing else had changed.
Drawing on the "Zhou" inheritance of the Starry Sky World, he employed a secret art to change his size without affecting combat power.
All three of his perfect gene bodies could now shift to human size, allowing night operations to continue unhindered.
Malrick had not yet produced offspring. With genes at perfection, procreation would be increasingly difficult.
Yet for someone with infinite life, offspring were merely an optional extension of existence.
Returning to human size, he flew toward Earth, fully dressed in a new set of heavy treasure armor from the Time Fortress.
A stronger supreme battle suit awaited him once he achieved immortality.
Landing quietly on his balcony in July 2011, he observed the world below.
Sherry studied at the Supreme Mage Academy. Natasha and her sister managed the company. Diana taught while practicing alchemy. Wanda prepared her graduation thesis. Kara lounged in the sun.
Feeling slightly hungry, Malrick took a piece of cake and pulled out his communication device.
Messages flooded the Avengers group chat, as usual—sometimes over ninety at once. Hawkeye even chimed in while on missions.
Expecting mundane chatter, Malrick scanned the feed:
[Awesome Avengers Superheroes Group]
Tony: Hey, everyone, while Malrick isn't here, let's meet at five o'clock today.
Captain America 1: I'll attend, but why avoid Superman?
Captain America 2: Knowing Tony, he probably wants to handle something inconvenient for Malrick.
Tony: Young Captain, voice-to-text doesn't require such formality. Old Captain, stop talking nonsense.
Hawkeye: Someone should tell Cap he can relax—he's been serious for three years.
Captain America 1: Tony, watch your language!
Captain America 2: Tony… cough, what do you want from us?
Carter: Malrick must be busy; this must be important.
Thor: Can I bring Jane? She likes spaghetti, Tony, remember.
Tony: On Earth too? Fine, bring her if needed, I have a task.
Thor: She's just a normal human! No, I won't.
Tony: Seriously?
Natasha: Tony, what are you scheming behind Malrick's back? He's my boss.
Tony: Stark Industries is half mine too. I'm exercising my shareholder rights and forbidding you from telling him.
Banner: Hulk! &…% (!*)
Tony: Oh, Hulk smashed Banner's phone!
Jarvis: Sir, perhaps we should get to the point instead of hosting a tea party.

Happy New Year!
The number of power stones I get is pretty low lately, which is kind of funny in its own way.
