Chapter 638: Clones and the Power of Time
In the Avengers base, Peter Parker and others, who were originally called by Tony Stark, were here, and they were originally going to go over to support Tony Stark, but Jarvis informed Peter Parker and others that the Joker and Lars had been caught, and they didn't need to rush over again.
This situation made Peter Parker and the others a little dazed, after all, when they received the news before, they thought it was a terrifying dimensional event comparable to that of the Devouring Soldiers, or an event similar to the invasion of the dark dimension powerhouse, but now it seems to have a little anticlimactic feeling......
Of course, Peter Parker and the others have run for nothing at most, and Hancock and Mary are still on both sides of the Avengers base, maintaining their superpowers, waiting for the next order of the Avengers.
Soon, Tony Stark and the three returned to the Avengers base, and the eyes of Peter Parker and others instantly focused on the Joker and Lars......
"This is the Joker? How is it different from what I've seen before? Peter Parker's figure leaned over to Martian Manhunter's side, and looked at the clown, who was also unconscious, and muttered hesitantly for a while.
Peter Parker hadn't seen the Joker himself before, but the name of the Gotham Joker did not only spread in Gotham, after all, Gotham is not an independent city that was blocked, so many people in the outside world have heard of the name of the Gotham Joker, and even Peter Parker has read the information of the Joker......
If it weren't for the fact that there was a superhero Batman in Gotham who was not the Avengers, Peter Parker would have wanted to go to Gotham to bring to justice the Joker, a super-criminal who had done many evils but was still able to get away with it in Arkham Asylum.
At this time, Peter Parker looked at the black lines on the clown's face that were a little different from the ones he remembered, and couldn't help asking, "What are these black lines?" It's a bit out of place with clown makeup! Could this be the reason why he gained the power of the Dark Dimension? ”
"Possibly!" Although Peter Parker just said it casually, Tony Stark on the side nodded very seriously, and said with some agreement with Peter Parker's speculation, "He doesn't have the mask of the Black Shadow Corps, but judging from their previous combat performance, the dark dimensional power on his body is not much weaker than the power with the mask, and even stronger than when Morbius was controlled by the mask before, which should be the reason why he got this mysterious black pattern......"
"Ahem, just say, why did you take me?" Morbius on the side coughed lightly twice in embarrassment, and said helplessly, "I'm not the original me again, don't you see that this black-robed man with a mask was defeated by me?" ”
"That's because I helped you eliminate your thirst for blood, and you're still in the process of studying the creatures of the dark dimension, which has greatly improved your strength, otherwise you thought you would be able to defeat him so easily?" Tony Stark pursed his lips and looked at Morbius with disdain.
"You're also a vampire anyway, and your previous strength is even more powerful than that of ordinary vampires, and as a result, you can't completely suppress the mask's sense of control, even Bruce's playboy is not as good!"
"It's like you're sure you'll be able to guarantee that you're not controlled by the Mask Consciousness......" Morbius muttered to Tony Stark's taunt, "and what else is Bruce Wayne your fan, maybe your willpower is not as good as his!" ”
"Bruce Wayne?" Johnny Stone blinked and looked at Tony Stark and Morbius suspiciously, "What does this have to do with him?" Did he get a mask too? ”
For Bruce Wayne, who was once as famous as Tony Stark, Johnstone still knows a lot about it, or Johnny Stone is very envious of the characters like Tony Stark and Bruce Wayne.
In Johniston's view, that is, he did not have a good birth, otherwise he would definitely be able to enjoy such a colorful life, of course, the premise is that he who has a good birth does not have a sister like Susan Stone, otherwise even if he is rich, there is no way to be merry and happy, just like his current self, he is obviously financially free, but he has no chance to control his property at all......
"That Bruce Wayne, like Tony, has two faces!" Hearing Johnny Stone's question, the corners of Morbius's mouth raised slightly, glanced at Tony Stark and said with a smile, "Perhaps, this is the tacit understanding of the top flowers, the family is too rich, and I want to do some side hustles as a hobby, and pass the unpretentious but boring ...... of life."
"You mean? Is Bruce Wayne Batman? Just when Johniston opened his mouth to shout this sentence, Pietro on the side spoke first and said Johnnystone's lines, which made Johnnistone open his mouth slightly, and the whole person froze in place, looking very uncomfortable.
"Humph! It's just a clumsy imitation of me! Tony Stark on the side raised his head disdainfully, and said lightly, "Moreover, he also copied my mecha and installed my sound pack, which shows that he has indeed liked me for a long time, but this does not prevent him from infringing on me, Jarvis, remember to check the account, if he doesn't transfer money on time, sue this guy, and by the way, ask for the mask in his hand!" ”
"Yes sir." Jarvis replied respectfully.
"Why didn't you bring his mask back before?" Morbius asked with some confusion when he heard Tony Stark's words.
"Because the mask is in his hand, it has been a while, since there is no problem, and he can control the mask, so he will put it there first, after all, his broken armor looks weak, and the mask is left to him, which can be regarded as giving him a little self-protection ability......" Tony Stark's mouth is very hard, but his heart is still quite soft, especially Tony Stark knows how difficult it is to be a superhero, especially when he is alone.
However, Tony Stark has no intention of pulling Batman into the Avengers, even if the Wayne Group behind Batman is also a behemoth, pulling into the Avengers can make the Avengers larger and more powerful, and the capital chain is more sufficient, but who makes Batman too incompatible with his concept?
Tony Stark also doesn't quite understand why Batman blindly adheres to the so-called principle of not killing, allowing those super criminals to survive by taking advantage of the law again and again, and then causing new casualties again and again......
Even Clark, under the influence of Robette, knew that some people who should be killed should be killed, and the original purpose of the Avengers was to prevent the harm of transcendent events to ordinary people!
Even the Avengers will take the initiative in advance in order to strangle these extraordinary villains and threats in the cradle, which is diametrically opposed to Batman's principle of not killing and the ending that leads to supercriminals getting away with it again and again......
Besides, whether it is incarnated as Batman, or the original identity of a young man, Bruce Wayne's range of activities, most of which is still in Gotham, and generally does not leave, the most important thing is that Gotham has too many events to deal with, and Batman does not have much experience to care about other things......
But what Tony Stark didn't know was that after Batman returned, he raised the threat level of the Avengers by a large margin, second only to Clark and Robett......
"Let's interrogate them first!" Tony Stark came back to his senses and looked at the Joker and Lars, Lars was okay to say, the Joker was clearly the protagonist of this incident, and the Avengers had to figure out how this guy's dark dimensional powers were obtained, find the root cause and solve him to prevent such an incident from happening again.
It's just that, thinking of the Joker's mental illness and the fact that Martian Manhunter couldn't successfully read the Joker's memories before, Tony Stark knew that it was not so easy to get the truth from the Joker's mouth......
Soon, the Joker and Lars were locked up in two different rooms, and while the Avengers' attention was on the Joker, Lars's side changed somewhat......
"Damn it! Not only did this operation fail completely, but it also got me caught, damn clown! Damn Bruce! Damn the Avengers! At this time, Lars did not open his eyes, and there was no sign of movement even with his body, as if he was still in a coma, but Lars's consciousness had begun to be active.
"After losing the power of the mask, my strength is even less powerful to be the enemy of the Avengers, even if I want to escape from this ghost place, is it really necessary for me to die here once and use that hole card?"
As an old antique who has lived for seven hundred years, Lars naturally has some hole cards, even if the extraordinary means he obtained are not too many, but Lars has lived for so long, and he has not only learned some combat methods, but he has also studied the direction of science and technology.
With the help of Lazarus's special ability, Lars cloned a body for himself by means of assistive technology, but Lars was not sure if he would be himself if he really activated that clone......
Originally, this was a hole card that Lars would never use unless he had to, but now it seems that if he doesn't use it, there will be no chance, if the Avengers really get everything about him from his mouth, then his clone and even the pool of Lazarus are no longer a secret, and he doesn't even have a chance to fight and be reborn!
Of course, Lars believed in his own willpower, otherwise he would not have resisted the consciousness of General Resu in the alien mask and controlled the power belonging to the dark dimension.
But the problem is that Lars is very uncertain about how many extraordinary powers the Avengers have, and he has no way to guarantee that the Avengers will not have the means to make himself obediently open his mouth or even read his memories!
After Martian Manhunter caught the Joker before, the whispering of Mimi and Tony Stark's mysterious dialogue made Lars's heart very bottomless......
"Forget it! Hope God ...... No! I hope Satan will favor me! After one thought flashed through Lars's heart, Lars made a decision in an instant, but saw that Lars's body began to tremble slightly, and with a violent tremor, Lars's body suddenly lost its breath!
"Alert, the prisoners in Prison No. 2 have lost their breath!" At this time, Jarvis's voice rang out, making the faces of Tony Stark and the others, who were originally paying attention to the Joker, change, and Martian Manhunter's reaction speed was the fastest, and he came directly to Lars through the wall, and the spiritual power surged into Lars's body.
"Whew!" At this time, Lars's body underwent drastic changes, the original Lars just lost the breath of life, but now Lars's body instantly became old, from a prime of life, directly to old age, and then became skinny, less and less flesh on his body, and his bones gradually shrank......
When Tony Stark and the others rushed in, Lars's body had turned into white bones, and even the bones were already showing signs of weathering, as if Lars had been dead for hundreds of years.
In fact, it is not like, because Lars lived for 700 years because of the power of the pool of Lazarus, and now after Lars died, the power of the pool of Lazarus has also disappeared, and the terrifying power of the years has directly applied the traces of so many years to Lars's body......
"Huh?! It worked! At the same time, deep in an underground cavern in Central Asia, in a nourishment chamber next to a strange swamp, a man who looked identical to Lars suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes full of joy.
And soon, Lars felt the weakness of this body, it can be said that this body is no different from ordinary people except for his seven-hundred-year-old soul, and it is even a little weaker, so after leaving the nutrition warehouse, Lars decisively burrowed into the strange swamp on the side!
This strange swamp is the pool of Lazarus, and Lars is quickly immersed in it, slowly gaining more endurance, strength, speed, and physical abilities than ordinary people, and returning himself to the transcendent realm.
"Avengers, Bruce! You wait, I'm not your opponent now, but don't let me find a way to deal with you......" A trace of hatred flashed in Lars's eyes, he could feel that his strength was improving very slowly now, not to mention revenge, it was a little difficult to achieve the strength before he obtained the alien mask, but Lars also knew that he couldn't be in a hurry, he would stay up if it was a big deal, Lars didn't believe that Batman and the Avengers could live longer than him!
