Volume 4: The Last Day Chapter 42: So a guy with an overly active mind cannot become a good fighter!
"Bang"
After Mason activated the ejection program, there was a dull sound and the Fenrir armor's helmet, which was a fusion of a bat and an owl, was blown away. Then the entire cockpit was ejected into the air.
This scene made Wonder Woman laugh like a warrior. She grabbed the Lasso of Truth at her waist, which began to glow as if it was ready for battle and was ready to make a remote capture.
Mason Cooper is no different.
No, it should be said that this evil guy who stole all of Bruce's "evil plans" to fight back against the Justice League members really had no better way to deal with himself.
The female warrior's heart was filled with pride.
As expected, saying that men are stronger is just a gimmick in the mortal world. If we really talk about combat power, female heroes like me are the ones who can win the Justice League...
"Click"
Before Diana's "little theater in her head" created by the golden apple was over, four mechanical tentacles extending from the tattered Fenrir armor grabbed her legs and threw her to the ground, beating her madly.
This attack mode is roughly inspired by Hulk's famous "God Killer Mode". The octopus tentacles, which have completed a self-upgrade by contacting Iron Man's nano armor, are fully capable of handling such a frenzied attack.
Now that there is no driver in the way, the crazy AI Delaman in combat mode can finally give full play to all his tactics.
It screamed crazy words like "I'll crash you to death" and activated all the weapon systems of the Fenrir Armor, and fought with Wonder Woman like a giant iron spider with four arms.
The ping-pong game was going on here, and nearly a thousand meters away in the "fall zone", Mason climbed out of the cockpit that was inserted into the top of a residential building and brushed the dust .
Wearing a black tights, he turned his head and smiled politely at the family who were hugging each other in fear.
This smile, which can be described as gentle from any angle, was reflected by his "big devil filter" that came out of nowhere, and scared the child held by his parents into screaming. The next moment, his frightened parents covered their mouths for fear of offending the "super villain" in front of them.
"I'm sorry for damaging your house, but I'm sure the Bat Foundation will help with the repairs."
Mason said, before opening the briefcase and releasing the black armor containment tank.
He stepped forward and activated it with his fingerprint and iris. Amid the splash of cold liquid nitrogen, the equipment named "Black Death Sword" armor appeared before the young man again.
He looked in amazement at the simple lines of the armor that imitated the Isu Vanguard Armor and the helmet without any bat decorations, and he knew that his last complaint was heard by this "little cutie".
"You're so good."
Mason reached out and touched the outer shell of the Black Death Sword Armor, and the Sorting Hat said solemnly at this moment:
"It's dangerous, Mason. I don't think you have to make such a sacrifice to defeat a powerful enemy. This is a symbiote! Venom has already told you that this is the most dangerous of all the symbiotes."
"I know."
Mason glanced at the flames of battle that were constantly lighting up in the distance. He took out a tube of nano-agent given to him by Doctor Octopus when he left Osborne Tower and injected it into his blood vessels.
These nanorobots are "symbiote blockers" that Dr. Otto extracted and replicated from the wreckage of the Blood Edge Armor.
It can prevent the symbiote from eroding and transforming the host's body in a short period of time. It is only effective for six hours, after which it will be excreted from the body through human circulation.
It is very convenient to use.
The only problem is that it cannot be injected again within a short period of time, otherwise it will cause great damage to the immune system.
Mason threw away the syringe, stretched his hands, stepped forward and opened the storage tank of the Black Death Sword Armor. He said:
"But we have to give something to win. That Amazon woman dismantled my beloved Fenrir! You saw it with your own eyes. She was the first to attack and it was a surprise attack.
I have to ask her for some compensation.
Or give this goddess of war a little 'Gotham shock', this city is not a cesspool where she can run wild! "
He looked down and saw the "heavy and solid" Black Death Sword Armor in front of him. After his consciousness accepted it, it turned into a black mud-like substance and extended up from his fingers.
The process of this thing transforming from solid to liquid was extremely smooth. It first wrapped around Mason's left hand like melted Dove, and then measured his body shape and vital signs like a tailor to "customize" the most suitable armor form for Mason.
Then, the symbiotic armor that was a fusion of magic metal and special alloy expanded rapidly, enveloping Mason in an instant as if it was swallowing him up.
This unique way of "wearing" scared the family of three in the house so much that they felt like they were witnessing the transformation of the "Devil of Doom".
But it was normal for Mason.
After all, his nerves had been toughened by the things he had seen in the past month or so, and the process of being covered by the Black Death Sword Armor was not even among the top three in terms of horror.
"Huh? It didn't try to parasitize me?"
Mason is ready to be "fused" by the symbiote just like Selina.
But what was beyond expectations was that after the entire armor was completed, the dangerous Black Death Sword Origin Symbiote did not inject its own symbiotic cells into Mason's body.
Moreover, after completing the "sticking" with the symbiote, the young man could clearly feel the hidden thoughts in the armor. It was not that the Black Death Sword could not do this, but that the other party did not have this idea at all.
It regarded Mason's flesh and blood as some kind of "dirty thing", and even secretly sneered at the nanorobots that Mason had injected into his body in advance to prevent the symbiote from parasitizing.
It did not try to seize control of the host like Venom did. Mason moved his body and felt that the re-solidified armor was waiting for him to give it its first order.
"It doesn't bother to parasitize you, Mason."
The Sorting Hat, which was worn on the young man's head and turned into a mask to protect his mouth, nose and eyes, also said in amazement:
"I can sense it. It's a very arrogant fragment of consciousness. Although it refuses to communicate with a dead remnant like me, I can probably understand where its arrogance comes from."
"It has already surpassed the initial stage where ordinary symbionts need a host to survive."
The voice of Isu biologist Consus was heard from behind Mason's shroud, who speculatively explained:
"According to the information you have obtained so far, my brother, this fragment, as the ancestor of all symbiotes, abandoned its 'backward' parasitic habits when it was forged in the blood and fire of the cosmic gods by the god Nar in the lightless abyss.
Perhaps, this special superior creature does not need to coexist with other life forms to maintain its own thinking and existence. After all, it has its own independent entity.
Although it's broken.
What a strange biological characteristic, perhaps we can classify it as a kind of symbiont 'evolution'?"
"We'll have to wait until we're safe to discuss this complicated and intricate biological knowledge, Consus, and the hat.
What we need to do now is to beat up that arrogant female warrior."
Mason raised his fingers that were covered with black armor and rubbed his chin, which was also covered with steel armor, as if he was wearing underwear. He said:
"It seems that I don't have to worry about being used as cannon fodder by the Black Death Sword Armor at some point. And this high level of obedience probably comes from the mission that Nar gave it.
The Black Death Sword first appeared in the material universe as a weapon to kill gods.
A weapon requires a wielder, and it must have sensed the Olympian divinity in Diana, which might be why it was so obedient now.
It is hungry...
It needs to eat.”
He walked to the mirror in the room whose roof and walls were smashed through and looked at himself in the mirror.
He in the mirror looked very much like a blackened version of the white tank armor that Tony Stark showed when he left. His entire body was covered with black armor, but it no longer had the heavy feeling of the anti-Superman armor, but instead showed a "symmetrical" and "slender" feel.
Perhaps it was because Mason's ideas were read when they were first used that the final biological armor presented an industrial and simple beauty.
Every part of the armor has edges and corners.
Apart from the energy ring composed of geometric glimmering lines, there is no other unnecessary decoration, making Mason's every move full of the precision and advancement of mechanical operation.
The helmet also completely eliminates the bat features, replacing them with a full-coverage geometric structure like a knight's helmet, with only a hexagonal eye guard cast in one piece at the eye.
It is basically the same as the composition of Spider-Man's mask or Deadpool's mask. The overall black and gray tone is full of a gloomy feeling.
But Mason thought it was cool.
This is probably because he has had too much contact with Batman, which has caused his aesthetic taste to shift towards "The Dark Knight".
He turned around and looked behind his armor, then with a thought, he created a full-covering cloak with glimmering geometric patterns similar to the Isu Shroud, covering his hips that were outlined by the tight suit.
Only then did he nodded with satisfaction.
Mason walked to the crack in the wall and jumped forward. At that moment, the floor under his feet and the remaining walls of the building were all shattered. The burst of power from the Black Death Sword Armor pushed him towards the battlefield a thousand meters away like an arrow.
The cloak fluttered, and the field of vision continued to expand and lock as Mason focused on the battlefield.
He felt that he might need a thruster structure to adjust the landing point, so the next second, the black boots quickly changed and reorganized into a rather strange "biological thruster".
The compressed air from several holes released a whistling sound, allowing Mason to easily fine-tune his direction in the air and smash down towards Wonder Woman who was dismantling poor Fenrir's armor.
"Bang"
Clench your fists when you land.
The metallic black gauntlet was fused and reshaped into a spiked hammer , which struck the Bladebreaker round shield swung by Wonder Woman with great force, carrying a god-killing force.
Diana, who had been hit on the head and entered a state of "burning divine power", had her eyes shining, and she obviously underestimated the power of Mason's attack.
Her face changed slightly when the war hammer and round shield collided, but it was too late to adjust her posture.
He lost his balance and tumbled backwards with kinetic energy as if he was hit head-on by a battering ram, then plunged the Sword of Vulcan into the ground, plowing a groove in the ground amid the roar of sparks before he managed to stand firm.
Before she could adjust herself, a dark shadow appeared behind her, moving like a speedster.
With both hands clasped on Diana's shoulders, the black substance on the gauntlet flowed and transformed into black panther claws. The extremely sharp two-stage biological claw blade structure bounced off in an instant, easily piercing through the demigoddess' skin that could withstand heavy artillery.
It's not much more difficult than tearing a piece of paper.
Mason didn't even feel like he was trying hard.
So this should be the super-strong enhancement brought about by the unique "anti-divinity" feature of the Black Death Sword Armor. It will definitely not be effective against a powerful person like Superman, but it can definitely hit a demigod like Diana who possesses divinity.
It is indeed a "weapon against gods" used exclusively by cleaners.
"ah!"
The female demigod let out her first scream since the war began, her voice filled with shock and anger.
She was shocked because she felt this strange armor sucking her blood, just like a greedy, hungry beast smelling something delicious and starting to feast on it.
She was angry because she was humiliated by a defeated opponent, a man who was thousands of years younger than her.
The war divinity in her body that never gives up and becomes stronger when facing a stronger opponent was completely activated at once. The angry power like rolling golden flames made this female warrior truly enter the role of a killer at this moment.
She endured the severe pain, turned around and stabbed the Black Death Sword Armor with her sword.
The metalized symbiote was completely unable to withstand the sharpness of the Sword of Vulcan, probably because Mason's armor only had a small piece of the Black Death Sword fragment, so it was somewhat powerless when facing such a powerful divine object.
Seeing Diana rushing towards him with blazing eyes, Mason's mind moved slightly, and he said to the Black Death Sword Armor, which had already prepared to respond to the enemy:
"Go to Fenrir. There is a vibranium shield hidden inside the outer armor that can block this sword."
"Shua"
The black armor swiftly dodged coolly the moment Wonder Woman approached, slid to the side and made a super jump to avoid the sword, and landed accurately in front of Fenrir's armor that had been mostly dismantled.
His hands turned into black claws and stabbed forward, tearing through the outer armor and grabbing Captain America's round shield protecting the Ark reactor amid the screams of the crazy AI Delaman.
But at the same time, the Lasso of Truth with a burning breath wrapped around Mason's waist like a snake, and the powerful pull of the female demigod caused the Black Death Sword Armor to whimper.
On the one hand, it represents the enemy's strength, and on the other hand, it also represents the dissatisfaction of the Original Symbiote with its current weak state.
If it were in the past when Knull was still alive, a demigod like Wonder Woman wouldn't even need it to be unsheathed and glare at people from hundreds of light years away to scare them to death. Why would there be so many twists and turns?
"Hey, you know that you and I have the same thoughts right now, right?"
Mason finally couldn't help it, he grumbled quietly:
"Is it really good for you to have such an active mind as a cold-blooded god-killing weapon? This little drama in your head is really exciting... And, it's really hard for you to have me so weak."
The Black Death Sword Armor, which was performing a little drama in its heart, was startled, and its overactive mind immediately became quiet.
With Mason's regretful expression, the black armor grabbed the round shield and "melted" into his body, and then he was pulled towards Diana by the huge force of Wonder Woman behind him.
The furious Wonder Woman had already raised the Sword of Vulcan, and the moment the opponent was pulled over, she thrust forward with a sharp thrust, intending to split Mason in half, including his armor.
But unfortunately, the Sword of the God of Fire, which carried the fierce fighting spirit of the female demigoddess, was moved to the round shield at the back of the armor to block it the moment it was stabbed out.
Amid the loud sound of weapons colliding, the female demigoddess's strength was completely absorbed by the vibranium shield and the symbiote.
During the whole process, Mason didn't feel any vibration at all.
And it was not until this moment that he realized the sad reality that his existence was completely meaningless to the exciting and fierce battle before him.
If the Black Death Sword Armor did not require a driver to start, it would probably be able to complete this "God-killing War" on its own.
This feeling is terrible.
Mason felt like a "human CPU" pendant at this moment. If possible, he could even sit in the Black Death Sword Armor with some popcorn and enjoy the battle in front of him from a close distance.
But Mason is always sensible.
After realizing that his combat experience could never be compared with that of the Black Death Sword Symbiote, which had been slaughtering gods since its birth, he immediately gave up the idea of intervening in the battle and left everything to the Black Death Sword Armor to play freely, and peacefully became a newbie who was led by the big boss to brush the dungeon.
I even wanted to shout 666.
As soon as he "delegated power", the battle that originally seemed evenly matched immediately became one-sided!
After getting the vibranium round shield, the Black Death Sword Armor was no longer afraid of the piercing of the Vulcan Sword. The more he fought, the braver he became. In the close combat, he suppressed the arrogant Wonder Woman in just a dozen seconds.
After all, the man in front of him was just a demigod, and the bodies of those real planetary gods and even cosmic gods who died under the Black Death Sword could be connected to form a Mega Wall extending from Gotham to Star City and then to Metropolis.
Relying on the anti-divine characteristics, the female demigoddess's power had nowhere to be exerted. Even the super-strong light cannon impact caused by the collision of the divine power bracelets was just a small scene of gentle breeze and drizzle for the Black Death Sword Armor.
The ultimate move has been sealed, what’s the point of playing!
The longer the battle lasted, the weaker Diana felt, as if the strange black armor in front of her was a moving "source of infection".
The closer you get to it, the weaker it will become.
The demigod who noticed this immediately asked for support and retreated quickly.
Sure enough, after being teammates with Batman for a long time, this strategy of transition during wartime is really easy to use. Even the most powerful Valkyrie of Amazon has learned the trick of shaking people up.
This made Mason, who was hiding in his armor and watching the show, exclaim that he was invincible!
The pure-as-paper Flash was taught a lesson, and the war-loving and fanatical Wonder Woman also began to call for help. I just wonder if Superman has learned any "Batman's little tricks to defeat the enemy" from his master.
This old man...
It really is the root of all evil.
Come to think of it, Mason himself seems to be a victim of Batmanism.
He had never been so distrustful of others before.
"Hey! Fight, seriously!"
Just as Mason had reminded the Black Death Sword Armor, the Black Death Sword had a very bad consciousness and immediately found an opportunity to retaliate. Mason was startled, and immediately calmed down and raised his hand to point forward.
Shouted:
"She's shaking people! Break her! Bind her! Tie her up! I suddenly had a good idea to try it out."
