Chapter 2852 I Have a Date with the Outer Gods (Part 1)

Chapter 2826 I have a date with an alien god (Part 1)

The others looked down at the pool containing the psychedelic liquid, only to find that the several metals thrown in before were gone. On the contrary, Peter's body was turning psychedelic light, and his eyes were shining with the luster of metal.

Jerome's eyes widened in surprise. He walked up to Peter, stretched out his nose and sniffed. He obviously smelled the Dionysus factor. He grabbed Peter's hand and took out a knife from nowhere. It seemed as if he wanted to cut Peter's palm open.

Peter was so frightened that he wanted to pull his hand away, but after taking a look at Schiller and finding that he had no expression, he knew that Jerome didn't mean to hurt him, so he let Jerome hold his hand.

Jerome used a knife to scratch Peter's palm without using any force, but the tip of the knife melted as soon as it touched Peter's palm, and the metal turned into a pool of liquid and melted into Peter's body.

Peter blinked, not understanding what was going on, because it was not his operation at all. He took a deep breath and stared at the palm of his hand intently. After a while, a small piece of black metal appeared. , obviously the blade that had just been swallowed.

What is this? Humanoid steel-making furnace? Peter was a little confused, and then he felt as if he could control his skin, so he took another deep breath, and silver-white light appeared on the surface of his skin, forming a new spider suit in an instant.

Cobblet came over and touched the tights, and then said: "This is like the piece of metal in Alfred's head, the fragment of the spaceship that Thomas found in Africa."

"That's N metal." Schiller said again: "It has many magical qualities, but the most important thing is that it is very hard. Almost nothing can break through its defense."

"You should have absorbed five metals and possessed the ability of metals." Schiller said: "Think about it carefully and see if you have a few more memories."

Schiller is actually referring to the most special one among the five metals, which is bat gold. Logically speaking, this metal is related to Batman, and an owl priest must personally inject it into Batman's body as an opening. The final key to the door.

But it may be that these five inaccurate metals have undergone certain mutations under the catalysis of amber gold. All the metals have been absorbed into Peter's body, but Peter is not Batman, so what can Bat Gold bring him? Not sure either.

Peter closed his eyes and recalled carefully, suddenly showing a look of pain, but he soon became relieved. He said: "I saw many different scenes. It seemed that in ancient times, there were a group of people dressed like birds walking around. Kneel down, then there are bats, and a huge iron furnace..."

Hearing the iron furnace, Schiller felt something. After all, Barbatos has a close relationship with the World Forger. This big iron furnace should be the World Forge. Unexpectedly, Bat Gold is also related to the World Forge. Could it be Barbatos? The metal that Toth stole from the Forge of the World when he defected?

There are ten major metals in the DC world. The first five were fed to Batman during the Metal Event and were used as keys to open the passage to the dark universe. The tenth became the key to reversal.

Each of these five metals has its own magical properties, and the specific origins of some have been explained. For example, N metal is said to be a rare metal produced in the universe. It is similar to vibranium and is used by some advanced civilizations to make the outer shell of spaceships. , featuring an indestructible character.

However, there are some metals related to magic that have never explained their specific origins, such as bat gold. Its properties and functions are very strange. It can amplify magic energy. Schiller originally speculated whether this metal might be related to the Upside Down Man, but Now it seems that the memory carried in this metal shows that this thing may be some kind of treasure of the World Forger.

But now that it has been absorbed by Peter, Peter should have similar abilities. Schiller took out the unused candle, broke off a small section, and stuffed it into Peter's hand.

Peter didn't understand why at first, but the moment he touched the candle, his eyes widened in shock, and he felt a huge amount of energy flow into his body.

When he covered the surface of his body with this energy, his whole body almost turned into a ball of flowing mercury, emitting a sparkling brilliance.

Peter felt like he could do something with this energy, but he couldn't figure it out for a while. He had read many books about occultism and magic in the black sun, and he also knew that there were magicians in this world. , but at that time he had no energy in his body and didn't know how to use magic.

Now that he has energy, he also knows the appearance of several spells, but he doesn't know why he can't cast them. He thinks it may be that what he learned on paper is shallow, but it's not convenient to experiment here, so he still has to go back to black. Only in the sun can we study it carefully.

For a scholar-type personality like Peter, finding a new topic but not being able to study it right away was a headache. He wanted to leave right away, but he heard Schiller ask Jerome what the hell was going on with them. What happened was that Peter was also curious about the truth, so he could only hold back his anxiety and listen carefully.

In addition to the story of Martha and Thomas, Jerome also has a story, which is nothing more than a series of experiences after Jerome joined the insurance company as an investigator.

In fact, he really doesn't have any conspiracy. Again, after finishing fighting Batman, the Joker also needs to buy food and cook when he goes home. After all, he is not a rich man. Where can he get the money to live if he doesn't work?

Because of his mental problems and low education, many formal companies would not hire Jerome. He also did not like to join the gangs, so he could only find some work that required brainpower in the gap between the black and white worlds.

He had previously helped people to make false accounts in a financial agency, and met a colleague who later jumped to an insurance company. This insurance company also engaged in black-eating-black business. In simple terms, the business was to trick people into buying insurance, but not to pay. As for the means of not paying, there were many ways, either to identify the accident as man-made, or to simply threaten to cancel the contract.

The financial agency where Jerome worked was soon taken down, and he had nowhere to go. He was introduced by his previous colleague to join the insurance company. He was very good at this job, especially in forging evidence. He helped the company solve many problems and was soon promoted to become a mainstay.

It was around this time that various abnormalities began to break out in Gotham City. Many people died in tragic accidents, and many eyewitnesses claimed that they were killed by monsters.

Some of them bought insurance from this insurance company, so Jerome naturally had no choice but to take responsibility. At first, he didn't think there was really a monster, but thought someone was against their company and deliberately made up this groundless rumor so that their company could pay more money.

But as he investigated, Jerome felt something was wrong. He found that there was indeed an evil god hidden in this city, but at that time he didn't know that the person who did it was Bruce Jr.

It was Jerome who targeted Bruce Wayne.

As mentioned before, Jerome was different from his brother. He was a natural sadist and disguised himself very well. Not only did he go to a good university, but his resume was also very impressive, so it was easy for him to join the Wayne Group.

He didn't go for Bruce at first, but just wanted to add one more thing to his resume. After all, at this age, the Wayne Group was already the only one, and being able to work here was considered a pretty good work experience.

Then he met Bruce Wayne.

Jerome disguised himself very well and soon became friends with Bruce. Both of them were young genius scientists, and they finally reached the point where they could talk about anything. It was at that time that Jerome discovered that something was wrong with Bruce.

Combined with the constant monster attacks in the city, Jerome thought that Bruce was controlled by the evil god, so he wanted to direct and act in a play by himself, to be a hero saving the beauty, so as to further gain Bruce's trust.

Jerome was also a genius in various ways. He actually discovered that the brain waves of those who were controlled by monsters to attack others were abnormal, so he developed a machine called a brain wave impactor. As long as it was fired at those who were controlled by the evil god, the other party's brain waves would be completely disrupted and pollution would erupt.

Jerome found the right time to trick Bruce into the factory and fired at him. Unexpectedly, Bruce was not the one being controlled. He fired at Bruce, and Bruce's original form was directly revealed. The tentacles all over the mountains almost scared Jerome to death.

But even so, Jerome, the sickly girl, did not give up his plan. He simply left the machine on. The coverage of this thing is about half of Gotham, and it is no problem to cover the central area of ​​Gotham.

But what he didn't know was that in addition to Bruce, there were other contaminated creatures within the coverage of the machine. They immediately went crazy, and the abnormalities hidden in many buildings also broke out, which led to the shocking change 20 days ago.

Arrogant's evaluation of Jerome was also very accurate, because after Bruce was affected by the brain wave impactor and got into trouble, the first person he wanted to find was not Jerome, but his brother Jerome.

Because in fact, Bruce's dealings with Jerome were not as many as the number of dealings with that damn insurance investigator. Bruce might have some common topics with Jerome, but he regarded Jerome as a threat, so when he encountered big trouble, he would think of his mortal enemy first.

Jerome turned off the machine when he found something was wrong, but it was too late. The whole city had changed. He had to search the brain waves of the whole city again and found the hotel with the most serious problems and rushed over. Who knew that Jerome also came and they strayed into different time and space.

Jerome knew that Jerome would come, so he tried to use the advantage of being in the past to contact Jerome. The two had to cooperate even if they didn't want to, so they had to pinch their noses and admit it.

But Jerome knew much more than Jerome. After all, he had been investigating things about Bruce Jr. and had traced Gotham Cathedral to know about Martha's plan.

Bruce Jr. in this universe did not become Batman, so Jerome naturally did not become the Joker in public. However, in the process of tracking down the abnormality, Jerome also found that something was wrong with him. His body was resistant to damage from certain abnormal phenomena and recovered very quickly.

Jerome was not a scientist, but he gradually found that the problem appeared in his blood. Combined with what he learned about Martha's plan, he believed that the mysterious Dionysus factor with self-healing ability existed in his body.

He kidnapped a blood scientist, extracted his own blood and refined it. As expected, he extracted a green mysterious substance, which was consistent with the green metal that Martha left in the clue at Gotham Cathedral.

Jerome wanted to rule the city, not destroy it. He knew that the way to save the city was to follow Martha's plan and collect the metals that could open the passage first. So he entered the hotel with the Dionysus factor and finally followed the instructions to the underground ancient city.
