Chapter 1785 Heart of Rage, Body of Artifact
"Ignorant humans, want to fight me? How arrogant. However, since you have such courage, then I will give you such a chance. If you have the ability, come down, I am here waiting for your presence!"
It was an invitation, of course, a malicious one. Facing the traps carefully laid out by the enemy, not everyone has the courage to step into them casually. However, Stark obviously didn't care about this. He looked at the deep and dark cave under his feet, sneered, and already plunged into it without hesitation.
This is a bold expression of Yigao, of course, with the strength he currently possesses, he does have the qualifications to be so bold.
You know, compared with the previous all-nanometer metal multiplication steel armor, he has made further development at this moment. And some of this development, to be honest, is beyond the realm of science.
When fighting with Steve, his body was seriously injured by the divine power of the King's Sword. At that time, in order to save his life, Thor, the god of thunder, had to use his divine power to forcibly suppress the power in his body.
The power from the god king Anuda and Thor's divine power are constantly conflicting and stirring in Stark's body. Under the conflict of these two divine powers, the severely damaged nano-metals have to do their best to self-proliferate in order to maintain their stable existence.
This kind of maintenance requires sufficient energy to support it, and even if Stark has the latest miniature ark reactor, it cannot support such consumption at all. Especially before this, he had a tough fight with Steve. So naturally, when this struggle reached a critical point, the Ark reactor on his body was already unsustainable.
According to common sense, at this time, Nano Metal should withdraw from the battlefield and wait for its own restart in a dormant manner. However, it is not known whether it was because the previous battle destroyed its core mechanism, or it was a flaw in Stark's own security design. When the energy was exhausted, these nano-metals not only did not stop operating, but became more intense due to contact with the two conflicting divine powers.
This level of intensity was no longer limited to Stark's subcutaneous tissue, but completely penetrated into every part and every cell of his body. From the perspective of nanometal, it replaces those parts of Stark's body that cannot withstand the conflict between these two divine powers, allowing him to develop resistance in this conflict and incorporate these two completely different forces into into your own energy circulation system. Overall, it saved Stark's life.
Just looking at it from a human perspective, all these changes are obviously a crucial step for Stark to move from human to inhuman.
Whether this is a good thing or not is, to be honest, a hard question to ask. However, if those elements of philosophical speculation are put aside, there is no doubt that Stark's power has been significantly improved in this special change.
With the power of the double gods that are constantly regenerating as the source of power, he already has some intentions to break through the limitations of the fusion of science and magic, and under the blessing of the power of the gods, which is itself extremely mysterious, the nano-metal on his body Also got a sublimation of fundamental nature.
Wearing today's nano armor, he can be regarded as an artifact with self-awareness and mobility, and it is not impossible to use the artifact to fight against the so-called gods and demons.
Of course, Stark himself is not very clear about all this. He just thought that he already had the ability to fight against the so-called gods and demons out of his own intuition and pride. And since this is the case, then of course he has no reason to act like a villain who looks forward and backward and is timid.
The most dangerous situation is that there will be an ambush from the enemy on the way, and if that is the case, then the big deal is to just kill through it.
Just a few little guys, there is really nothing to be afraid of. In his eyes, the one who is really qualified to threaten him is only that one.
Although Stark thought so in his heart, he was not too relaxed mentally. He didn't want the scandal of capsizing the boat in the gutter to happen to him, so he should be careful, he didn't lose a cent.
However, to his surprise, the situation that he expected did not happen along the way. There are no little ones blocking the way, and no hidden traps. If he hadn't seen with his own eyes that this passage was formed under that pillar of fire, and it was the other party's deliberate guidance to him, he would have even wondered if he had found the wrong place.
When did the devils in hell disdain to play such ghostly tricks? Stark felt emotional in his heart, but he didn't have any intention of staying. As soon as the propulsion device on his feet accelerated, he passed through the deep rock tunnel, and then fell into a cave with a bang.
The thick darkness in the cave caught him off guard for a while, especially the subtle touch under his feet, which made him feel like he had accidentally stepped on shit. This feeling is of course unacceptable to him, so immediately, like a huge light bulb, he released an extremely dazzling light from the energy device on his chest.
Stark's bad taste makes the light he releases more dazzling than the brightness of a large searchlight. In this kind of environment where you can't see your fingers, if you are not careful, you may really lose your eyes. Although he didn't expect that this would blind Satan who was hiding here, he still hoped that this might give him a proper embarrassment.
It's just that his idea didn't work out. Because even such a dazzling light could not penetrate the deep darkness in this cave.
As if something thick filled the air, the light he released only spread to a range of two or three meters in front of him, as if being swallowed by something. After all, the cave that can't be seen with five fingers still looks deep and dark, and faced with such a situation, Stark can only look around himself while secretly stunned.
The very limited visibility of the lighting combined with the heavily jammed detectors made it difficult for Stark to see his surroundings. He looked left and right for a long time, until finally, he put his eyes on his feet.
Worried about stepping on something dirty, he still cared about the touch of his feet. The reason why he didn't observe this immediately was because he was worried that he would face a fierce battle soon. And since this situation will not happen now, of course he wants to take the time to check it out. And this inspection doesn't matter, his eyebrows hidden under the helmet immediately frowned.
Thick liquid, and the color that was about to solidify into black, plus that absolutely pungent smell. There is no doubt that this is blood. As far as the eye can see, the entire ground is in this color, which means that the blood here is not just a little bit, but so much that it almost covers the entire ground. And considering the cruel nature of the devils, they would definitely not slaughter some livestock here for food processing, so what is certain is that the source of these blood can only be one possibility...human beings!
Thinking of this, Stark immediately took a step and walked towards the darkness that the light could not reach. And just as he expected, when he walked into the darkness, he could immediately see human corpses kneeling on the ground.
At this moment, the bloody corpse showed an abnormal, skeleton-like emaciated appearance. From the faintly visible bloodstains on the black robes they wore, it could be seen that the massive amount of blood on the ground came from their bodies.
They had knives in their hands, and there was blood on the knives, from which Stark could tell that they committed suicide. And so many mass suicides? This already made his scalp start to tingle.
As a superhero who has been through a lot, a president of a country with a heavy burden on his shoulders. He is very clear about the nature of human beings today. Selfish, greedy, stupid, no honor at all.
They only care about their own interests, and even say that they can easily push others into the fire pit for their own interests. In this case, it is normal for them to kill others, and suicide is the most abnormal manifestation.
What makes so many people choose to commit suicide? The first thing he could think of was the bewitching of the devil. Just like a mutant who was once feared by the US government and could manipulate his mind, he suspected that these humans were brainwashed to make such a terrible move.
This was his initial thought, but the next discovery made him overthrow this idea.
He found that these corpses almost all maintained a consistent movement and a consistent expression. That is, they all held up their palms, and on top of their palms was a piece of rotten and withered meat.
It can be seen from the wounds of the corpses that this is their heart. Reminiscent of his previous discoveries, it is not difficult for Stark to guess that these people gradually died after they took out their hearts alive with a knife. This should be painful. For today's human beings, just thinking about this kind of thing should make them shudder and be timid. But the truth is, that's not the case. Because there is no timidity and fear in the expressions on their faces, let alone the pain and distortion of facing death. All they have is a kind of satisfaction, a kind of satisfaction of giving wholeheartedly and being rewarded, a kind of great joy that seems to have been sublimated in the soul.
This should not be the expression that those who have their hearts under control should show. Because at the time of death, in order to avoid being affected by themselves, those mind controllers who control others will mostly shrink back their mind power. This kind of situation makes the people under control are often sober at the moment of death, so their expressions are the same as those of ordinary people when they face death, and even more distorted and hateful.
But this is not the case now, so Stark boldly guessed that they really did such a terrible thing out of their own will.
This is a more terrifying thing than they being manipulated to die, because if such a death is really out of their will, then only distorted greed and lost souls can manipulate them. As a member of humanity, he really didn't want to admit that humans would become like this. But in the face of the cruel facts, he had to admit that such a maggot-like existence really existed.
They would rather offer their own death and suffering as a gift to an evil embodiment of darkness. He is also unwilling to save his own life and leave a way out for his compatriots. Can such a person really be called a human being?
Thinking of this, Stark felt ashamed that he had been shaken by the lives of these people. Of course, after the shame, comes the deepest anger. Not only for these self-willing and depraved human beings, but also for the existence that bewitches them.
This kind of anger was so intense that Stark couldn't hold back his emotions immediately, and cursed at the deep darkness in front of him.
"Satan! Aren't you going to fight me? Come out, don't hide in this darkness like a coward. Do you think hiding will solve the problem? No, it won't solve anything, it will only make me Despise you even more, from your cowardice to your soul! If you have any courage, get out, get out and fight me like a man. I will crush you, I will let Those fools who believe in you know that their death is meaningless and their blood is worthless! Because you can't go anywhere but hell!"
"Oh, I can hear from your tone that your anger is about to destroy your sanity. This is quite different from what I understand, Mr. Tony Stark, you don't seem to be anything Sentimental people!"
In Stark's words, the thick darkness began to shrink, like a scene rendered by inverted ink, and a huge cocoon of extreme darkness appeared in front of Stark.
First, a voice came from the big cocoon, and then, Satan, who had red skin, pure black eyes, and was still in a white suit, walked out of the cocoon with a smile.
He first glanced at the corpses that died because of him, and then turned his gaze back to Stark. Immediately afterwards, a playful smile appeared on his hideous face colored by color.
"Why are you so angry, my Mr. President? Is it because of their deaths? With all due respect, these human beings don't seem to be of much value to you and your country. On the contrary, most of them can be called hidden dangers. Now, I can be regarded as doing you a big favor by helping you solve them in the most convenient way. But for this, you are furious at me, I I want to say, isn't this a little... unreasonable?"
