Volume 4: The Last Day Chapter 80: I have already finished playing Justice League alone twice, but this job really doesn't give me any sense of accomplishment!
The rainstorm created by the Atlanteans using some kind of weather weapon is coming to an end with the defeat of the underwater people.
At this time, there should have been only a drizzle of rain falling, but less than five minutes after Mason, the non-staff "Rain God", entered Gotham, heavy rain once again hit the earth.
At this moment, in the dreary and burning night, Mason, who was not good at close combat, took a posture to meet the enemy, with the heavy trident in his hand pointing forward. In front of him was the crazy and roaring General Hawkgirl.
Although the latter was in a mess and driven crazy, the fact that she could become a general among the warlike Amazons as a foreigner showed that this woman was indeed capable.
Definitely reckless and powerful enough.
If a close combat really broke out, Mason would probably have his head smashed by the fierce Hawkgirl in the first round, but fortunately, in this imminent battle tonight, Mason's mission was just to strike a cool "summoning" pose and then welcome the hungry armored master to his body.
So, in fact, the moment he struck the pose, his mission as a "symbiote pendant" had already been completed.
"Shua"
Because the dark creature smelled the fragrance of the war power, it has awakened, and the black death sword armor like an ancient beast expanded along Mason's left finger.
Just like a layer of melted dark chocolate, in an instant Mason was armed to the teeth and took over all tasks related to the war.
Mason's originally loose standing posture suddenly changed. As Queen Diana, who was floating in the air, saw her face change drastically, the Eagle Girl General who pounced on him was pierced by the golden trident as accurately as a cannonball in the next moment.
Then in a cool one-arm giant swing, he was nailed to the ground as hard as Xiao Zhiyin.
Flash sale!
The black symbiote suit then moved its shoulders, and the mysterious and heavy Isu shroud turned into a cloak to cover the body.
While Mason, who was the "humanoid CPU" of the Black Death Sword suit, was already watching the show, the boss of the suit, who came from darkness, stepped on the shoulder of the struggling Hawkgirl.
He grabbed the wing with his left hand and tore it apart violently.
Blood flew and there was a shrill scream. A bloody, twitching wing smashed to the ground in front of Diana as its feathers flew everywhere.
Huh, when it comes to taunting and provoking, Black Death Sword really knows a lot about it.
The War Queen's rage was completely ignited, but as she turned into a meteor and smashed towards the arrogant man on the ground, a strange feeling she had never experienced before rose in her fiery heart.
It was a wonderful feeling she had never had since she was born, like an electric shock with a little uneasiness and confusion in her heart.
This feeling is called fear.
That was an emotion that Diana Prince, who was born to be the king of this world, had never experienced before. For a warlike demigod who inherited the priesthood of war from the god of war Ares, feeling fear was almost impossible.
Unless facing "natural enemies".
At this moment, although the black armor in front of her had no face, the queen could feel that the strange black substance was like a ferocious beast with its mouth wide open facing her attack.
It is very hungry.
And I am delicious...
Well, humans have a very suitable word to describe this scene. What is it called?
Like a moth to a flame?
"Bang"
The strange thoughts accompanied by the collision of weapons instantly pulled Diana's mind back to the cold reality. The extremely sharp sword of the god of fire was easily blocked by the vibranium round shield "bounced" from the arm of the Black Death Sword armor.
Although this thing is not an electronic product and does not have any data memory function, it has previously fought and defeated another version of Wonder Woman in Gotham, and it obviously has its own ideas about the current confrontation.
It was obvious that the Black Death Sword had no intention of wasting time fighting with the more powerful Diana in front of him.
At the moment of blocking the sharp blade of the Sword of the God of Fire, large black tentacles burst out from the surface of the battle suit like a group of snakes and entangled the limbs of the Queen of War.
Although she was freed by Diana's burning divine power the next moment, just a moment of contact made her understand where the uneasy fear in her heart came from.
Part of her divine power disappeared out of thin air!
It must have been "eaten" by the black monster in front of her. Diana, who realized this, immediately stepped back. But how could the Black Death Sword Armor, who had already tasted the "sweetness", allow the delicious food to escape?
It roared.
Chasing its prey like an out-of-control beast, it madly formed sharp claws and hammers in the vibration of the puddle on the ground and smashed them at the Queen of War in front of it.
He had no rules at all and was not afraid of Diana's clever counterattack.
Anyway, as long as it comes into contact with it, it will devour the divinity. Every confrontation will make it stronger and Diana will only be continuously weakened. The Queen of War faced this creature that was like her "natural enemy" and suddenly found herself in an irreversible dilemma.
The situation she faced was even worse than the other Diana in Gotham a few days ago.
The fusion of Wonder Woman and divine power in Mason's hometown was not perfect. She did it deliberately to maintain her humanity and not be overwhelmed by the indifferent divinity.
But the Queen of War doesn't have this worry. The only thing she wants to do in this world is to conquer...
Therefore, she had already embraced the gifts from the gods without any psychological barriers, but the things that made her strong were now also dragging her into the quagmire.
"Bang"
At three minutes and seventeen seconds into the battle, the embarrassed Queen of War was knocked to the ground by a punch from the Black Death Sword Armor, and the Bladebreaker round shield in her hand was smashed out and cut an entire wall into pieces.
All she had left in her hands were the Sword of the God of Fire and the Lasso of Submission. She tried her best to break free from the "black mud" in front of her that was swallowing her hungry heart. She staggered backwards, then stepped on her right foot with her left foot and flew into the sky.
This is probably the only weakness of the Black Death Sword Armor.
It does fly though.
But this flying function is more used for traveling and emergency situations. Its combat in the air is not as "smooth" as that on the ground. Instead, it gives the critical Diana Prince a chance to breathe.
The Queen of War flew back and forth in the air. After regrouping, she realized that the thing in front of her was a natural nemesis for her and she had no chance of winning if she charged head-on.
So she quickly adjusted her tactics.
As an Amazon who has received combat education since birth, Diana has an extremely sharp vision. She was unable to defeat the Black Death Sword suit, so she set her sights on Mason Cooper, the host of the suit.
In her opinion, the human man 's confidence in challenging her lies in this damn battle suit, and this thing belongs to the category of "weapon" no matter how you look at it. Weapons can only exert all their power when they are held by a warrior.
Therefore, it might be a better idea to avoid the weapon and attack the host directly.
"Whoosh"
The glowing Lasso of Submission was swung up by the Queen of War. The moment it brushed past the Black Death Sword suit, Diana threw it hard and accurately wrapped it around the wrist of the suit. Then, with her huge force in the air, she "cut" the lasso into the "flesh and blood" of the symbiote.
During the whole process, she had to endure the pain of having her divine power sucked away by the Black Death Sword.
But she gritted her teeth and held on for victory, and with a roar she tightened the noose until it was around Mason's wrist.
At this moment, Mason, wearing the Black Death Sword armor, was so idle that he was about to fall asleep.
Of course, this is an exaggeration. For Mason, who is extremely good at time management, watching this battle in which he has no part in is undoubtedly a shameful waste of time.
So now he has begun to calculate in his mind the improvements to the ingredient formula of the Superman Enhancer.
This is a big project.
After all, the superhuman enhancer will definitely be used frequently in the future, and its overly serious side effects are really daunting.
Mason doesn't want to go through the painful process of being weak for several days again, so he must complete the improvement of this thing before his next incarnation as Superman.
We don't ask for no side effects, but at least reducing the rejection reaction is a good thing.
However, he was so immersed in "slacking off on the battlefield" that he did not expect that he would have a chance to appear in this one-sided battle. When his wrist was grabbed by the hot submission lasso, Mason was forced to wake up from the state of thinking in his mind.
Then he heard the weak rebuke from the Queen of War:
"Shameless and weak man! I command you! Take off your suit!"
All of Diana's powers in this world are related to war, so the original Lasso of Truth was replaced with the more destructive Lasso of Submission.
Once this thing is put on, you can ask the other person to do anything you tell them to do. It is definitely the kind of "magic weapon" that sisters with queen personalities and brothers with masochistic personalities like most.
The power from the Lasso of Submission immediately transmitted this command to Mason's heart. With his powerful mental strength from the Isu bloodline, he was actually able to resist this forced command.
But Mason shrugged.
He did not resist at all and let the War Queen's order take effect at this moment. At this moment, Mason not only did not feel any sense of crisis, but even wanted to laugh.
He shouted expressionlessly in his battle suit:
"Black Death Sword Suit, I command you to immediately apologize to the Supreme Queen Diana and return the divine power, then quickly withdraw from the battle!
Roll as far as you can."
Hearing this, Diana, who was struggling to hold on, suddenly felt happy. With the host's order, this damn battle suit will finally not cause any trouble, right?
Then, as she stared in amazement, after Mason, the host, gave the order, the Black Death Sword Armor not only did not retract in obedience, but instead, as if enraged, it punched her in the face with an even more ferocious attitude.
With a "bang", a double sonic boom was created.
Ha! Unexpected?
I can't control this damn suit! They don't care about my opinion at all, just treat it as a fart! I just broke your exquisite tactics!
This punch stunned Diana Prince.
She fell , creating a huge crater in the center of Gotham City.
The War Queen lying in the pit looked at the Black Death Sword Armor falling from the sky. Her mind was already a mess and she couldn't figure out a single problem.
Why are you completely unaffected by your host's orders? Shouldn't the suit system take the host's orders as its first command? Why is your suit acting on its own?
Are you fucking specially trained by the Japanese military?
etc!
Could it be that I was wrong?
It's not that Mason is controlling the suit, but that the suit is controlling Mason? But it doesn't look like that! Mason didn't look like he was being controlled at all just now.
"Shua"
The Black Death Sword battle suit landed on the ground in front of Diana in a superhero-style landing, and the submission lasso used to bind Mason was torn off his arm, and with a fancy lasso swing, the rope was accurately put around the neck of the Queen of War who was struggling to get up in front of her.
Diana Prince was pulled in a panic by the huge force and was completely pulled towards the Black Death Sword suit, who then grabbed her neck and chin and lifted her into the air.
The scene that followed was a replica of the divine power swallowing incident in Gotham City.
Countless black tentacles emerged from the Black Death Sword armor like snakes, covering the limbs and torso of the Queen of War.
Her divine power of war was continuously squeezed out in the form of red streams of light. This process was like the operation of a juicer, accompanied only by Diana Prince's creepy screams that resounded through the rainy night.
Just by listening to the hoarse roar and the charming body trembling wildly in the air, you can tell that this process is definitely not comfortable.
"I'm sorry, Your Majesty."
A few minutes later, the clean Black Death Sword armor "ebbed" from Mason's body with a sense of "laziness" and "comfort" and returned to the fingers of his left hand, turning into a black gem ring again.
Mason, who had just solved a small problem with the alchemical formula, stretched his body, squatted down as if he had a good sleep, and looked at the War Queen who was lying limp on the ground in front of him, unable to move even a finger.
He said with regret:
"You have heard it, my beautiful and noble Majesty. I also ordered this bastard to stop offending you, but unfortunately, we are not even in a cooperative relationship...
In short, I personally express my deepest condolences for what happened to you.
In addition, if it is not offensive, I would like to ask you, in this world, were you also molded from the magic clay by Queen Hippolyta?"
Faced with Mason's ridiculous question, the War Queen, who had been drained of all her divine power, could only respond with an angry look as if she wanted to kill someone.
Her eyes were red.
Damn it, I have been in this world for so long, and I have never suffered such humiliation and injustice! You bastard, just wait for me, I will kill you first when I recover!
But unfortunately, Mason didn't give her another chance to think about her revenge plan.
He stretched out his hand.
In such a comfortable environment on a rainy night, the slime monster Kevin, who was jumping around happily, jumped out from the palm of his hand. He first stretched his body and did a set of gymnastics, then cheered and "dive" into the long black hair of the Queen of War.
Although I don't know whether she is a clay doll or not, there is nothing wrong in giving it a try under the current circumstances. It's better to try your best.
"ah!"
A miserable and creepy scream sounded again from the darkness. After being stripped of her divine power, the existence of the Queen of War itself was also in jeopardy. Looking at her twitching in pain in the mud, Mason curled his lips as he stood up.
He took out a pack of cigarettes and said:
"What a pity! It looks like you are also a clay doll in this world... Kevin! Eat less, or you might turn into a divine creature and get killed by the Black Death Sword.
You saw it too.
I have absolutely no control over this lunatic."
Kevin, who was ambitiously planning to "swallow" Diana Prince whole, suddenly shook his body, and with strong regret, he "spit out" two-thirds of the War Queen who was dissolving in the "soil".
Due to the lack of the divine mud that made up her body, the "Queen of Royal Sisters" who was originally in her prime suddenly "shrunk" into a young girl.
The gorgeous and stylish armor was beginning to crumble.
"Mason!"
Talia's scream came from the night behind. Amid the low engine sound of the Batmobile, the K-Squad tank driven by Catwoman stopped beside Mason with a graceful turn of its tail.
The cockpit popped open, Talia jumped out and picked up the unconscious Diana Prince.
She looked with great curiosity and fear at Mason, who was holding a penguin umbrella in the rain, blowing smoke rings with his back to her, revealing an elusive "master temperament".
She asked in a tone of inquiry:
"I want to recruit her into my team, is that okay with you?"
Ms. Fox, who was very good at observing people's expressions, asked for their opinions this time. Mason waved his hand and said without turning his head:
"It's up to you, but it may take a long time for her to recover her drained divine power, or even never return to her full strength. Are you sure you want to take her with you?"
"Even without divine powers, she is still a powerful Amazon. Bringing her along is like having an army of Amazons."
Talia brushed her long black hair and said softly:
"I think our noble queen has suffered a great defeat and needs to rise up and start over. At this time, she needs a think tank who can assist her."
"Hmph, your abacus beads make a lot of noise."
Catwoman walked out of the Batmobile, leaned against the side of the car, and said with a disdainful curl of her lips:
“This Diana has grown out of shape. Compared to our Wonder Woman, the one in your hand is more like a violent girl who lets herself go.
She almost destroyed the world.
And you, you can't even take care of a child like Damian, how can you be expected to teach her well?"
"Selena is right."
Mason threw the half-burned cigarette into the water at his feet. He turned around and said to Talia while holding an umbrella:
"Everyone says that Superman in the Justice League is always maintaining his humanity, fighting against his innate cold divinity, but they ignore that Superman is not the only one with this problem in the Justice League.
You have seen firsthand what kind of trouble Diana Prince, who has fallen into the godhood of war and cannot extricate herself, can cause. If you are sure you want to recruit her, then I hope you will keep her in good control.
Talia.
If she gets into trouble, the blame will be entirely on you."
“It’s a difficult challenge, but I believe I can get help from many sides.”
Talia said seriously:
"For example, our wise and kind-hearted captain, Mason, the leader and ruler of Team K, the Atlantean doomsday ship will arrive in Gotham in half an hour.
Your team members, including me, are eager to hear your next plan."
