41. Bat Thor VS Captain Dread

A few minutes later, with the sound of the bell, Thor and Batman rode the goat Teeth Grinder and Teeth Grinder respectively, and landed on the large square on the edge of New York City.

This used to be the location of the Trident Building, but it was completely razed during the Battle of New York three years ago. To commemorate that battle, it was restored as a city square.

In the past few years, it has become a landmark building in New York.

Not just because so many memorable things have happened here, but also because there is something world-famous here.

The legendary Thor's Hammer, the legendary weapon Mjolnir from God's Domain.

During the Battle of New York that year, the connection between Thor and the Hammer was completely destroyed by Raven. Since then, Thor's Hammer has been placed in this square.

Even after the Asgardians migrated to Earth, they did not come to recover the weapon.

At this time, the war hammer with a square head and a square brain was placed on a rocky platform in a slanted posture.

At the very beginning, officials claimed that it was just a replica.

But later, the New York officials simply admitted that it was the real Thor's Hammer, and the cool-haired Mr. Wang even paid a large sum of money as a gimmick.

He claimed that anyone who could swing the hammer could win a $1 million reward.

The event immediately sparked a frenzy.

Every day, tourists from all over the world try to pull up that hammer and become the new Thor, but for more than 3 years, no one has succeeded, and no one can even make it move a little.

Of course, a businessman as shrewd as Wang Wang would definitely not wait for the winner so honestly.

He put away the tickets like a thief, and every tourist who tried to pull out the magic hammer had to pay 10 dollars for the ticket.

Although a part of the license has to be handed over to the New York government, in the past three years, just by collecting tickets, Wang Wang has still made a lot of money.

Uh, that's off topic.

In short, at dusk, two goats flying from the sky landed on the Hammer Square, immediately attracting the attention of everyone here.

Although New York was attacked by the War Hulk a few hours ago, people and tourists in the city expressed great calmness.

The square was still buzzing with people, and the people queuing up to touch the hammer had already lined up dozens of meters long.

"Give way."

Thor jumped down from behind the Gritter Goat, waved to the screaming fans, and then walked to the hammer with the silent Batman behind him, and he said to the person in charge of collecting tickets:

"I've come to get my hammer back."

"Why!"

The red-necked middle-aged man who was trying his best to pull out the hammer shouted:

"I paid for the ticket, you can't just..."

"swish"

Batman threw a $100 bill to the redneck, who said in a low tone:

"Compensate for your loss, no more change."

The latter was a little sluggish, but saw Batman exuding a cold aura.

He shrank his neck, took the money and walked away obediently, but after a few steps, the guy took out a signature pen from his pocket and returned to Batman.

He whispered:

"Sign it for me, my son adores you very much."

"Don't jump in line, bastard!"

Those tourists who were queuing saw that Thor's Hammer seemed to be taken away, and some people shouted in dissatisfaction:

"Anyway, let's talk about it after we try it, maybe I can pull that hammer out!"

"Aww"

The two goats were annoyed by the noise of the crowd, and the king of beasts from Asgard roared and spurted flames from his mouth to drive away the disgruntled tourists.

The hellhound Tori, who was not willing to be lonely, also took advantage of the chaos to scare the ordinary people. He played very vigorously, leading two goats to run around in the square, constantly breathing fire, scaring the ordinary people to run away.

In the chaos mixed with screams, Thor, who was carrying the battle ax, reached out and touched the cold war hammer in front of him with emotion.

As before, Mjolnir did not respond to his finger touch.

After all, Thor gave it up voluntarily, and legendary weapons have their own dignity.

The sober Thor regarded it as a shackle, so the proud hammer didn't bother to return to Thor's hands.

It is waiting for its next owner.

"Whoever lifts up Mjolnir will have the power of Thor. My shattered godhead is integrated into this war hammer. As long as you can lift it, you can become the new Thor."

Thor said to Batman beside him:

"Hela was Mjolnir's second master, and I was the third, perhaps the weakest, and she knew more about this hammer than I did. She said you had some kind of potential, she was sure You can lift the hammer, so..."

Thor turned his body and made a "please" gesture to Bruce, and he said:

"bring it on."

"I'm curious, what do you mean by 'qualification'?"

Batman stepped forward, he didn't immediately grab the hammer, he looked back at Thor, he said:

"Isn't there a specific definition?"

"No, even my royal father can't tell clearly, even if this oracle was set by him."

Thor replied frankly:

"In the tradition of Asgard, the so-called qualifications, and even the godhead, are very vague concepts. We just know that if you have a certain persistence in your heart, the concept of firmness transcends the material level and enters the spirit Afterwards, it will generate new strengths."

"Without a firm will, without going through honing and trials, it is impossible to achieve great things. This is the meaning of the inheritance of the Asgardians."

Thor said:

"Sounds idealistic, doesn't it? But Bruce, that's what we stand for."

"Yeah?"

Batman pursed his lips, and he looked at Thor's Hammer, which was leaning on the rock in front of him, as if he could grab it with his hand.

He took a deep breath, and under Thor's gaze, put his left hand with the black gauntlet on the handle of Mjolnir's hammer.

"tear up"

A weak electric current danced on Bruce's finger, and he felt a tingling sensation from an electric shock. He could feel a cold consciousness examining it, which seemed to be the hammer itself.

It is determining whether the hero walking on the dark road in front of him is qualified to lift it.

But in the blink of an eye, the surge of electricity engulfed Batman.

"crash"

Dazzling thunder fell from the sky.

Just like the door of the light curtain tearing the clouds and the sky, the lightning split like a trident across the sky, the wind is surging, it seems that the invisible storm is coming in an instant, and the cold raindrops are falling, hitting the chaotic world. on the square.

Everyone was dumbfounded watching this scene.

that man.

The man in a black armor, a large cloak, and a bat helmet like a costume.

Under their watchful eyes, amidst the tumbling thunder, he easily and effortlessly lifted the hammer that no one could lift high in his hand.

"Boom"

Another thunder surged and struck down, hitting the surface of Thor's Hammer. The dazzling electric current also quickly dissipated amidst the splash of thunder and fire.

In the fog caused by the high temperature, Batman, who was carrying Thor's Hammer, took a step forward, and those fine arcs wrapped around every part of his body.

The composite armor on his body was shaped into a new form when the power of Thor was added to his body.

The black, ferocious Asgardian-style battle armor, even the bat helmet, has become a full-cover black double-winged battle helmet.

There are blue arcs stretching out of the corners of Bruce's eyes, making him look like the god of thunder descending from the world.

"It's resisting me."

Batman said to Thor, who laughed loudly beside him:

"It recognizes me, but it doesn't recognize the ideas I uphold. It despises me for not being a warrior who takes lives. It scorns me for being a restrained ascetic... You really have a character for this warhammer."

"That's it, you just get used to it."

"After all, as a weapon, it's its job to open people's heads, but you restrain the bottom line and never kill people. Naturally, you have some disagreements, but these are minor problems."

Thor reached out and took out the phoenix fragments given by little Hela, intending to start the folding of the two, in order to give Bruce the skillful experience of using Thor's Hammer, so that he can truly control the divine power that only Asgardians can control. .

But this action was stopped by Bruce.

Bat Thor reached out and took the small bag containing the phoenix fragments in Thor's hand, and he said in a deep voice:

"Leave the rest to me, Thor, go home, you have someone you swore to protect."

Bruce imitated Thor's way, grasping the buckle of the warhammer, and waved the thunderous Mjolnir in his hand, dancing into a shining halo.

After accumulating enough kinetic energy, the arrogant warhammer neighed, leading Batman into the stormy sky where lightning roared.

In the surge of thunder, the dark walker's cloak fluttered, like a bat that really spread its wings and soared into the sky.

That scene was seen by everyone in the square and even the entire city.

A new Thor is born.

Just today.

"Batman raised Thor's hammer?"

By the window of the apartment in Manhattan, the haggard Jane watched in amazement that the figure wrapped in lightning disappeared into the New York skyline. While touching the little Hela's ball head, she said curiously:

"Although Thor said the oath of the hammer, I always thought that mortals could not pick it up."

"You just believe in myths too much."

Little Haila didn't care much, she stared at the sky where the thunder was shining, and said with nostalgia:

"Thousands of years ago, I also rushed to the battlefield with that warhammer in my hand. Back then, it wasn't very aggressive. Although it was also a rebellious guy, it didn't have its own ideas. It only obeyed those warriors who held it."

"Odin old ghost carved a divine word on that warhammer, saying that only qualified people can lift the warhammer, it is pure nonsense!"

Little Hella curled her lips, and she said:

"As long as one of your thoughts is strong enough to break through the limitations of the material world, as long as you suit its appetite, it will be willing to use it for you."

"It doesn't matter if you use it for good or bad."

"Mjolnir is just a weapon. Don't deify it with narrow human values... My useless brother just doesn't understand this, so he let himself be bound by the oath of the hammer."

"It's always the man wielding the weapon, not the weapon controlling the man, that's stupid."

After finishing speaking, little Hela turned her head and continued to play the game, while Jane stood by the window, she was fascinated by the dispersing storm in the sky, and she reached out her hand to touch her heart.

"Strong thoughts, persistence, conviction?"

—————————

In Central Asia, in an inaccessible desert.

The War Hulk was running away, and it was enveloped in a state of embarrassment that had never been seen before. This beast, which was folded into Hulk and Banner and wiped out all the bottom lines by the apocalypse, was injured.

It was hit head-on by Betty with the brute force of the Boundary Breaker Warhammer, and it was hit from North America to Tibet with a single hammer.

Without resting at all, it encountered the Venerable Skyhammer Steve Rogers who was holding the Destroyer of Will, and it was in a bad state.

If it continues to fight, it will lose.

"boom"

The anchor-shaped war hammer wrapped in purple thunder roared down, and the War Hulk quickly rolled outwards, dodging the attack from the sky.

The heavy black warhammer slammed into the desert like a tactical missile exploding here.

The terrifying energy tore apart the earth in an instant and reshaped the surface. When the War Hulk got up, a small impact rift had already appeared where it was before.

The quicksand was melted by this blow.

"crash"

Amid the sound of the chains colliding, the anchor war hammer was taken back into the hands of Venerable Sky Hammer. Captain Dread held the war hammer in one hand and the chain in the other, walking on the quicksand in silence.

Purple lightning wrapped around his body, and there were dark and heavy clouds in the sky, blocking the sun's light.

"You don't want to go anywhere! You don't want to hurt anyone again!"

In the state of Venerable Skyhammer, Steve spoke with a dark echo, and he looked like a dark boss.

He swung the anchor-shaped warhammer in his hand like a meteor hammer, and swung the lightning-wrapped warhammer violently.

Seeing that there was no way to retreat, War Hulk simply clenched his weapon, planning to fight this guy who had fallen into darkness right here to the death.

But before Steve threw the weapon, a howling thunder pierced the sky, summoning the power of thunder, and smashed on War Hulk's body from behind.

Mjolnir, who returned to the battlefield, was very excited. This silver-white war hammer punched the Hulk's back like a heavy punch, and the heavy force hit the War Hulk soaring into the sky, just like it was hit by Betty with the war hammer before. flying scene.

In the roar of Hulk's extreme displeasure, and in the hiss of Thor's hammer, the most unlucky knight of the apocalypse was knocked out of the battlefield by this blow.

After the War Hulk was "sent away", the bat Thor, wearing armor and flying in a cape, also fell from the sky amidst the thunder.

He landed in front of Steve, and the two old friends in lightning looked at each other.

Bruce spread his five fingers, and in the silent call, the silver-gray Mjolnir flew back from behind while neighing.

Carrying thousands of thunder and fire, it crossed Steve's side in a provocative gesture, and landed in Batman's hands with a roar.

"Steve..."

He said:

"This is not the way you should go."

"Turn back!"
