Chapter 138 R: The Bat Incident (XIX)
Chapter 138 R Bat Event (XIX)
Nick Fury stood on the roof of the Empire State Building. He saw a burst of red light burst out in the sky of New York in the distance, followed by a red beam of light rushing straight into the sky. He held the intercom and said: "Attention, all units! The so-called Bat Guard has arrived. The monitoring equipment is activated and ready to launch the resistance plan at any time..."
Before he finished speaking, a black shadow suddenly rose into the air on the roof of the Highland Building.
In an instant, a huge black storm swallowed the sky of the entire Brooklyn area. The black curtain spread out from the center in circles, and the black tide with endless fear rushed towards them.
Nick opened his mouth and put down the intercom. After a while, he cursed fiercely and said, "Connect me to the New York Temple immediately! Who is this damn bat guard? Is he going to destroy the earth directly? Will those wizards just ignore it?!!"
Near the Highland Building, all the armed personnel looked up at the roof in amazement. A huge black sphere exploded and then gathered together. A black monster that was hundreds of meters long gradually condensed.
When the terrifying black bat appeared in the sky above New York, Steve raised his head and said to himself, "The so-called Bat God they call has really come..."
Except for Schiller who was watching on the roof of the mansion, everyone thought that this was the Bat God mentioned by the vampires.
Of course, there was another person who knew the truth, that was the vampire Morlun who came over, but he didn't have the energy to defend himself at this time.
The black venom bat that Peter transformed into was Bruce's second stage of transformation, that is, the terrifying bat monster that fought with Schiller in the sky above the living hell.
Whether in terms of size, form or momentum, it is beyond the understanding of ordinary people.
The Morlun family traveled through various multiverses, and they had seen many monsters. The universe is so vast that there are all kinds of things. The size of the venom bat is not huge among these monsters, and its appearance is not very impactful.
But in the same way, the vampire Morlun can also feel things that ordinary people cannot feel. In his vision, the form of this venom bat is much more terrifying than the visible appearance. His whole body is wrapped in endless black tides, and the fearful breath he exudes is shocking.
Even Morlun, who has traveled through countless multiverses, has never seen such a real fear. The outbreak of the first wave of black tides made him fly back to the edge of the roof.
But soon, Morlun wanted to take the initiative.
The gift of Morlun family members is to absorb the power of other lives for their own use. They are used to this way of fighting. Therefore, Morlun activated his gifted ability as soon as he felt danger.
Morlun stretched out one hand, just like he absorbed Spider-Man's power before, trying to absorb the power of the venom bat.
But this time, unlike the usual absorption of other creatures to obtain pure energy, Morlun activated his own ability, and along with the energy, there was endless darkness and fear.
In almost a short moment, the black energy broke through Morlun's mental barrier, and the mouth, nose, eyes and ears of the vampire were filled with dead black air.
This energy polluted his consciousness and infected his blood. Morlun screamed horribly, his skin and muscles began to atrophy, he knelt on the ground, and his whole body began to undergo terrible changes.
His skin began to become like a real bat, dry and black, and a lot of hair grew. The forehead of the head retreated, the mouth and nose protruded forward, and a pair of bat fangs and ears grew. Sharp wings grew behind, and his hands and feet also turned into the shape of bat claws.
Morlun, infected by dark energy, turned into a half-human, half-bat monster, but this change is more than that.
As a creature that can travel through various multiverses, members of the Morlun family have a special mind network. They can communicate across different spaces and times, and they all rely on this innate mind network.
But at the same time, once the defense of this mind network is broken, the speed of infection will be very fast. A large amount of dark energy suddenly poured into the mind network terminal of the Morlun family member who descended this time.
Other members of the Morlun family noticed the changes in this terminal, and there were constant echoes from the depths of the universe: "What's wrong with you? Answer us, are you in danger?"
In response to them, there was endless fear. In countless corners of the universe, all members of the Morlun family who sent signals had the same terrible mutation.
After the Morlun who came to the earth mutated, the dark consciousness and fear completely devoured his brain. He trembled and laughed wildly. In the wild laughter, he shouted: "I am the bat! I am the bat! I am the embodiment of fear! I am a believer in fear! Death has never changed, only fear is eternal! Hahahahahaha!"
Schiller observed this change on the rooftop next to him. Of course, he didn't know that the darkness from Batman's heart had infected most of the members of the Morlun family, turning them into new believers of fear.
He only had one feeling about this - Morlun, you are very weak.
What about the multiverse hunter? What about the cosmic vampire?
But Schiller thought about it carefully, maybe it's not that Morlun is too weak. The darkness deep in Batman's heart is almost the original power of the DC world, and it belongs to the super weapon of the entire DC world. Any Batman who releases the dark power will become a DC infinite level villain.
And when this power is stored in the venom liquid and brought to Marvel, it is also like using anti-aircraft guns to kill mosquitoes against individuals in the multiverse-level Morlun family.
But unfortunately, the release of this power is one-time, and there are many restrictions. Not everyone can bear this power. Perhaps only a hero with a pure heart like Spider-Man can maintain his original rationality after accepting the release of this power.
In fact, Spider-Man is indeed rational now, but he is very panicked now.
When I woke up, I became the Bat God. What should I do? Waiting online is urgent.
Almost all ordinary people on the ground believed that the giant Venom Bat transformed by Spider-Man was the real Bat Guardian. As for the half-man, half-bat monster next to it, it was probably a soldier mutated by the radiation of the power of the Bat Guardian...
Since there were only two people who faced this change, one was the now crazy Fear Follower Morlun, and the other was Stark who had lost consciousness, so no one knew that this extremely terrifying monster was actually Spider-Man.
"What should we do now?" Peter asked Venom in his heart.
"It's all your fault! You did that last time and almost got us beaten up by Captain Steve. This time we caused a bigger mess. What should we do now?"
"Nothing to do. Just stay here. Someone will come later."
As soon as Venom finished speaking, Peter heard a somewhat indifferent female voice in his ear: "Who are you? What are you doing on Earth?"
In Peter's vision, a wizard in a yellow robe appeared in front of him. The moment he appeared, the surrounding space was turbulent. In Peter's career, the clouds on the horizon became completely still, as if time had frozen.
She repeated again: "I am the Supreme Wizard of Earth, Ancient One. Who are you? What are you doing here?"
Ancient One stood quietly in the fearful position filled with Venom Bat's black fog. Her body seemed like a pure land, calm and peaceful.
Generally speaking, Ancient One would collapse first and then ask questions about this kind of thing like a demon god. This time she didn't do it because she hadn't figured out what it was yet.
In the eyes of Gu Yi, a supreme strongman who has almost penetrated the universe and controlled the truth of space and time, the world is not what ordinary people see. In their eyes, any power can be analyzed, they all have their own sources, and they can find their roots in the depths of the universe.
But this time, Gu Yi found that the power emitted by the monster she faced had no roots or sources in the universe, and could not find any origin, as if it appeared out of thin air.
This aroused Gu Yi's curiosity, and what made her even more curious was that this overwhelming black tide, although hiding maddening fear and darkness, seemed to have no malice, but simply released its own darkness.
In the past, all the demons who wanted to invade the earth, no matter how they disguised themselves, Gu Yi could deeply feel their greed and viciousness, the chaos and madness engraved in their bones, which was the natural attribute of non-order creatures, no matter how they covered it up, there were traces to follow.
But this time, the existence of this huge bat image reminded Gu Yi of something that happened not long ago-an ancient god who claimed to be from Carcosa came to the earth to issue a warning, and then disappeared for no reason.
Gu Yi looked up and down at the huge bat. She was not in a hurry. What she lacked the least was time.
Gu Yi thought that just like the ancient gods who appeared last time, Gu Yi could not feel the source of their power, nor could he find their root existence. The two had the same characteristic, so Gu Yi had to associate them together.
Could it be that the strange cosmic demon god issued a warning last time because this bat would come?
But the strange thing was that when this bat first came, it neither wanted to destroy the earth nor launched any attack. Even facing Gu Yi who introduced himself, he was just silent.
Gu Yi observed for a while and found that she really couldn't find the source of this power. She began to try to observe from other angles. Gu Yi thought, bat? Why must it be a bat? Does this have any special meaning?
After guessing for a long time, Gu Yi finally sat in meditation on the spot, and seemed to start communicating with some distant consciousness, seeking answers from Him.
"Totem... the power of the beast totem... a new totem?... bats, fear believers... the power of fear? I see, it can be used..."
After a while, Gu Yi stood up, not caring whether the monster could understand or not, and said directly: "New totem, I am willing to lend a hand, but after you become a real beast totem, you must return this power to me ten times..."
Peter didn't understand what she was saying at all. In fact, he didn't even know who this was. Venom was silent for a while, as if thinking, and then he sent a signal: "...at most twice."
"You are too greedy. You have already caused damage to the earth. The excess is compensation."
"Not that much..."
The wizard in a yellow robe stood with his hands down. She said calmly: "On Earth, I am the only one who offers the price. If you don't want to pay, then stay forever."
"Five times..."
Ancient One was silent for a while, then said to himself: "...The power of fear?"
"Deal."
"Now, leave here, I'm going to catch the thief."
After saying that, Ancient One waved his arm, grabbed the member of the Morlun family who turned into a bat-man monster, and then disappeared.
The condensed time was broken, and the moment Venom took back the power in his body, Peter fell heavily to the ground and screamed.
Soon, Steve jumped from a helicopter. He saw Stark and Peter lying on the ground, and hurriedly helped them up.
Stark was put on a stretcher, and Peter was helped by Steve to get on the helicopter. Schiller patted his shoulder in the helicopter, and Peter shook his head and said, "Fortunately... Fortunately, we are all fine. How is the battle going?"
"Don't worry, the lizard serum is very effective. Ninety percent of the crazy bats can no longer fight. The remaining ones are running away. We are using freezing guns to capture them..."
