Chapter 2905 When Night Falls (Twenty-three)
Zan was thrown to the ground and screamed again. The Arkham Knight inherited his father's interrogation style very well. He went up and snapped four times, and the purple tights youth's limbs were all broken.
Dick took a breath, but he was not particularly surprised. After all, Jason in any universe is not a good person. Moonlight Schiller did not react at all. Strange frowned slightly, as if he felt it was a pity.
Arkham Knight said while loading bullets into the gun: "I ask you to answer. If you hesitate for one more second, you will be shot."
"Give up, I won't..."
Bang!
"Ah!!!"
Zan lay on the ground and twitched weakly. Constantine, who limped in, grinned.
"Who sent you?" Arkham Knight asked.
Zan just screamed without answering, and then another shot. At this time, the youth was obviously a little unconscious, and the terrible pain completely occupied his brain.
"Yes... yes..."
Just as Zan finished his words, blood-red flames rose from his chest, burning him to charcoal in an instant.
"Don't waste your energy." Constantine said, "The transformed cannot disobey their father. Any intention to reveal the secrets of their relatives will trigger a curse of death."
Zan was still screaming, obviously he was not dead, but it was not certain if he continued to burn. Schiller looked at Dick, who shook his head and said, "I just have magical powers, but I can't use spells, and I don't know how to remove the curse."
Schiller looked at Doctor Strange again. Doctor Strange was already circling around Zan. He was about to say something when Constantine said, "I have a way to remove this curse, but you'd better not ask him again..."
"No, wait." Doctor Strange suddenly interrupted him and said, "I can feel his soul, which means that if he dies now, I can summon him again. At that time, no curse will be useful."
Others suddenly realized that, yes, they have a necromancer here. If they catch vampires, they can use the necromancer to summon them again as long as they die once, and the summoned undead creatures have no secrets in front of the summoner.
"Give him a quick death." Doctor Strange raised his head slightly and said.
Arkham Knight took out the sniper rifle again, loaded the bullets and aimed at Zan's head.
But at this moment, Zan, who was originally just twitching and wailing on the spot, suddenly went crazy and rushed towards Doctor Strange like crazy.
Doctor Strange was too close before and was hit directly, and a claw was hit on the shoulder. Fortunately, at the critical moment, the golden candlestick flew over like an arrow and nailed Zan to the ground.
At this time, the young man had no movement and completely turned into a black corpse. Doctor Strange covered the wound on his shoulder and gasped.
Kong Su used the power of moonlight to heal the wound, but Doctor Strange's condition did not improve. The three black marks on his shoulder still existed. This was obviously some kind of toxin or curse.
Doctor Strange raised his arm slightly, but his eyes widened instantly and he said, "His soul is gone! How is this possible?!"
He raised his head and began to look around, but Schiller knew that he could not find it.
Because just when Doctor Strange said that he would kill Zan and summon him again, a light that was almost invisible to the naked eye flew out of Constantine's hand and entered Zan's body, and then the young man went crazy.
After the young man died, Constantine seemed to be smoking, but he took out a small bottle from his pocket while smoking, and he put Zan's soul into the bottle.
"Does it have to have a soul to summon?" Schiller looked at Doctor Strange and asked.
"In theory, yes. The soul is the medium for casting spells. So the more powerful the soul is, the stronger it will be after being summoned back. Moreover, the memory exists in the soul. Without the soul, how can he know who he was before? Who changed him?"
"Doctor Strange's words make sense. What they want now is not combat power, but intelligence. So if the resurrected Zan has no soul, it is meaningless to have an empty shell."
But Schiller obviously didn't think so. He said, "Can you revive his body?"
"Yes, but it will be different from a living person."
"For example?"
"For example, the skin is paler, there is no body temperature, and it is afraid of sunlight..." At this point, Doctor Strange couldn't say anything. He was originally a vampire, so why should he be afraid of this?
But then he shook his head and said, "It's not that simple. Without a soul, it's just a corpse. Although I can use magic to control him, it is very inconvenient to move. At least his abilities before he died can't be used."
"If there is a soul, can you still use the abilities before he died???" Dick said with some surprise.
"Not only can he use his superhero abilities, he can also use vampire magic." Doctor Strange said proudly, "If I hadn't been injured, the strength of my abilities would be at least two-thirds of what it was when I was alive, but now it's probably only half."
"It's amazing." Dick said, "I've never heard of such magic."
Not only he hadn't heard of it, Constantine hadn't heard of it either. If this is the case, isn't it equivalent to a copyright transfer?
It is obvious that this person who died and was resurrected has obtained the copyright of magic, but it is the Necromancer who can really use this magical power. If he picks up more corpses, wouldn't it be equivalent to owning the copyright of all magic? Is this justified? ?
But it may be because the magic in the Marvel Universe works differently. Anyway, Doctor Strange said he could do it, and he demonstrated it with several vampires he summoned before.
He originally wanted to test whether the summoned undead vampire could bite and transform people like a normal vampire, but no one here could give him a test, so he had to give up.
Doctor Strange summoned Zan's body under Schiller's instructions, but it was obvious that Zan's eyes had no pupils, which meant that there was no soul in his body.
Doctor Strange spread his hands and said: "I am using magic to maintain the stability of his body, but he has no soul. Once my magic power is cut off, the body will fall apart in an instant. If I control him like this, he can't do anything. After all, I’m not in a good state right now.”
After saying that, he controlled Zan's body and took two steps. These two steps were quite human-like, but he fell down as soon as the Arkham Knight stopped him with his good hand.
"I basically won't bother to control a soulless corpse." Doctor Strange said: "This means that all the abilities bound to his soul cannot be used, and I have to spend more power. This is not cost-effective at all, so Not very skilled at controlling it.”
"Must it be his own soul?" Schiller asked.
Everyone looked at him for a moment. Doctor Strange was stunned for a moment, and seemed to understand Schiller's thoughts. He said: "No, it doesn't have to be his soul. Anyone's soul can be used, but ordinary people's souls are difficult." Controlling other people's bodies, that wouldn't be very coordinated."
Schiller smiled and said, "I happen to have this experience."
In fact, the process of Schiller's family separation is much more complicated than it seems, because the tower is actually a complete soul, and all personality traits are just fragments.
The so-called carrot and pit, the law of the world is that one body has a complete soul, which makes sense. Any damage to the soul may cause permanent paralysis or complete coma, because an incomplete soul cannot control the complete of the body.
Therefore, it is almost impossible for Schiller to control a complete body with more than two thousandths of his soul, especially since this body is somewhat different from the body they originally had.
But as luck would have it, this was not the first time that Schiller changed bodies.
He was thrown to another world by God, and the body in that world was different from his original body. It may be for this reason that Schiller's mental state has not been good, but no matter what, his soul is suitable for To control a strange body.
And later, if you want to separate the family, you have to solve the problem of controlling the entire body with a small piece of soul fragment. One of the solutions is that the fighting world is different from the outside world. Allowing such ridiculous things to happen will not attract the management of the universe. sanctions against members.
The second is that usually Schiller is just a small fragment that controls most of the actions, and more than half of the remaining ones in the tower are idle. One core is in trouble, and eight cores are watching. They have adapted to this situation.
Therefore, after squeezing the new body, and after a short period of adjustment, they were able to fully adapt. It can only be said that Schiller is the innate body-seizing body.
"You mean you have a way to get into Zan's body?"
"I have no choice but to rely on you, you are the magician." Schiller said: "I have a plan that allows us to figure out what is going on inside without actually entering the Justice League's field of vision. , or even figuring out who the hidden vampire is in Justice League.”
"Isn't he the only one?"
"Of course there can't be only one." It was Dick who said this. He said: "Vampires have the ability to contact the people of the Justice League. It is impossible to transform just one young hero. There must be a mole among the seven elders. "
"Oh, I understand." Doctor Strange nodded and said, "We can borrow this kid's body to return to the Justice League. On the one hand, we can find out what is happening in the Justice League now, and on the other hand, we can get in touch with his body. boss."
"Although this guy couldn't tell who his boss was because of the curse, but if we saw it with our own eyes, it can't be regarded as his revelation."
"Exactly, if you have such magic..."
"Of course I do." Doctor Strange said, "Even if not, wouldn't it be enough to hide a camera on your body?"
But Arkham Knight shook his head and said: "I'm afraid it's difficult to have an anti-monitoring system set up by Batman in the Hall of Justice. Our cameras may be detected by him. It's best to use magic."
"So, sir, can you put my soul into this body?" Schiller asked, looking at Doctor Strange.
Doctor Strange was slightly hesitant and said, "I'm surprised that you would trust a stranger you just met a short time ago. If I guess correctly, you are also a player, right?"
Doctor Strange covered the word "player" with magic. It sounded like he suddenly coughed. Schiller nodded. Doctor Strange said: "No wonder, then our interests are the same, and even if there is any problem, we will support it." More is a loss of points.”
"Do you need to prepare anything?"
"No need." Doctor Strange shook his head and said, "Follow me, it will be over soon."
