The blackness of decay.

Like the red of all beings, the black of decay is also a specific place. The stench of corruption is everywhere, the arthropods of various insects are as large as mountains, forming bridges, carrion grows on the ground like weeds, and scavengers such as flies and maggots take the place of birds and animals

Anton Akane sat high on his throne, and his hideous face, like a skinned frog, showed a thoughtful expression like a philosopher at this moment.

He sharpened his teeth like dogs' teeth, and raised one of his hands, only to see that a small knuckle was missing from his smallest thumb, as if it had been corroded alive by some strong corrosive substance like sulfuric acid.

Immediately after, a weak, old voice came from Akane's ear: "This is ...... Someone has taken away some of your power? Who can do that? Bain? ”

Then another voice vetoed the previous one: "No, that...... It was far more powerful than Bane, and much more evil. ”

"It's the Black Death Emperor." Anton Acain said.

It's hard to say whether his tone was envious or disgusting, but it could be counted disgusted.

He turned his head sideways, as if speaking to something intangible:

"Yes, as you can see, I did fail. You can sit there and laugh at what I, a pioneer, have done. But anyway—"

"The Black Death Emperor has once again confirmed my opinion, you old things of the Rotten Council."

The Council of Decay of the Black of Decay, like the Council of the Red Totems of All Beings, and the Council of the Green Trees of All Things, they are all creatures who once wielded the power of death, and when they die, their souls return to the Black of Decay and become the guardians of death.

They should have been committed to maintaining the balance of the three magical forces of nature, as they had done in the Totemic Council. But by this time, Anton Akane had seized most of the power of the Corrupt Black, and the Corrupt Council had not died out for the time being...... But only temporarily.

"Too strong death will upset the balance of the three forces of nature, and if there is no life, how can there be death? Turning the Earth into a planet full of death will only lead to the gradual death of the Decaying Black itself, and finally ......"

"Shut up, idiot. You rotten old thing. ”

Akane's voice roared lowly, followed by the sound of beasts munching in the darkness, and the rotten council member who had spoken out against Akan screamed and soon fell silent.

"Do you really think that the darkness of decay is unique to Earth?"

Anton Akane rose from his throne.

"The red of all beings on the earth and the green of all things are destroyed, but so what? The Earth is but the most insignificant of a thousand stars. There are so many planets of life and living things that can be conquered, even if the entire universe falls into dead silence? ”

He was halfway through his sentence, then stopped: "You don't understand what I'm talking about, do you?" ”

He sat back down on his throne, and tapped the armrest of his seat again and again with his little thumb, which was missing a finger.

The Black Death Emperor reappeared in his mind, even though he fled so fast that he didn't even get a glimpse of the full panther.

But this does not prevent the fire in his heart from gushing and burning, and a kind of ambition of "he can take his place" is igniting his soul and illuminating his way forward.

"You know what......

Akane's words were full of emotions that the rotten council members could not understand. But he didn't need those people to understand.

He sat there, and he seemed a little religious.

"You know?"

He said:

"In this world, the saddest thing is not the future that is not in sight, not the repeated failures after trying your best, not the hesitation of understanding your own inability.

The saddest thing is that on the first day you embark on this path, you have a deep and powerless realization that the road ahead is broken, and the other side of the highest realm is the end of victory, but it is also the grave of the rest of your life. ”

"And what's worse: we're part of death. So the torment will never end. ”

"So can you understand my joy? It's like a blind man suddenly seeing the world of light. ”

"I suddenly saw something to chase in the dark ahead, and you don't understand how happy it was for me. I'm finally able to have-"

Then Anton Akane realized that the rotten members of the council who were barely breathing in front of him could not understand what he was saying. He suddenly lost some interest, and completely lost interest in continuing to say something.

"So......," he said.

Soon the members of the Corrupt Council realized what Anton Akan was going to do again, and they let out a wail, but being a fish could not stop any of the Knife Warriors' actions.

So the chewing sound sounded again, and Anton Akane was grabbing the power belonging to the Black Guardians of Decay bit by bit in this way, but this time the process was not as protracted as usual.

Akan looked up, looking at the small piece of thumb he was missing with some surprise.

"Borrowed...... My power? ”

Just now, when he was about to continue today's traditional project of "absorbing the power of the members of the Corrupt Council on a daily basis" to make up for the shortfall in the power contained in the small thumb he had been robbed of by the Black Death Emperor, he suddenly felt that some kind of existence was trying to draw more power from him through the small thumb he had been taken away.

Akane was stunned for a moment, then frowned, and then a look of abrupt realization appeared on his face.

"It's ...... you"

He saw clearly the true face of the man who was asking him for power on the other side:

"The Black Death Emperor...... You can't project enough of your power into the Overworld, so you're planning to use my power to strengthen your spokesperson? ”

Then his face became gloomy:

"Don't think!"

He had just tried to forcibly sever the connection that was asking for his power, but immediately after, he felt a large mass of death power from the Black Death Emperor being thrown by the other party through this passage.

Anton Akane was immediately stunned. He quietly felt the power from death, compared to the death power of the Rotten Black mixed with the smell of corruption, this mass of death power from the Black Death Emperor and the Corrupt Black came from the same origin, but the taste was completely different.

"Do you think that throwing such a little bit of your power will make me forgive you after you just took away some of my power?"

And then there was another big ball thrown over there.

"What good will I do if I help you, the same is to master the power of death, your successful entry into the material universe will only be bad for me, not good."

Then a new lump was thrown over.

This time was a little different from the previous two times, this time it was not an ordinary pure energy like before, but a kind of death power that he seemed to have slightly deconstructed in some way.

If you have to say it, it's like when you see a student with a higher grade than you, not only throwing the exam answers to you, but also throwing a copy of his study notebook behind him, which explains the problem solving ideas clearly, giving the poor student the illusion that as long as I look at the notes and learn, I can also become a top student.

Akan took a deep breath, he held the power of the Black Death Emperor, and then, he said:

"How can I help you?"

And the Black Death Emperor's answer was very concise and to the point:

"Mongo."

A few minutes later, Arkane ended his connection with the Black Death, and then there was a flattering look on his face.

He maintained a steady stream of power to move somewhere, and then played with the three pieces of power that the Black Death Emperor threw at him in his hands, with a playful smile on his face.

From the beginning, taking the initiative to cut off his little finger when facing the Black Death Emperor, and then giving that small piece of flesh and blood and the corrupt black power attached to it to the Black Death Emperor, it was Anton Akane's decision at the first moment he saw the other party.

Akan was not afraid of the Black Death Emperor, nor did he lack the confidence and courage to touch the other party.

The Black Death Emperor who completely descended into the material universe may be very terrifying, but now this kind of Black Death Emperor, who can't even open the gap and transmit more power, is definitely not a worthy opponent for Akain.

But he still chose to flee from the wind, and the current situation is the effect that Akane wants.

"Yes, that's right...... Don't pay attention to me.

Batman is your enemy. But when I see you, I'm scared of the [lizard] that survives, so what's the threat? ”

Arcain thought.

A flame called "He can take his place" burned even more vigorously in his eyes.

……

……

……

"Hey, Amon-Sue, why did you get in?"

When Amon Sue walked into the prison of Lanx, he saw three Yellow Lantern Men standing in the doorway of the cell of Senisto's wife, Arlene Sue, protecting her for their loyal Lord of the Yellow Lights, Senisto.

Amon Sue knew the first one.

This creature has anti-jointed legs and blue skin, and has the characteristics of a sea animal, resembling a humanoid blue-skinned dinosaur with long hands.

Amunsu recognized him, his name was Polyarosolos, from sector 3001.

He is most likely the oldest member of the Senisto Legion, an ancient race that was once a carnivorous marine animal on the planet Maltus a billion years ago, and his people were exterminated by the Guardians for attacking and killing them.

In a Yellow Lantern Corps full of murderers and thugs, this is one of the few members who can't be called "scum".

Standing beside him was a moose-like creature on Earth, with huge curved horns. It comes from a giant group of Trog mammoths.

Senisto chose him to protect his wife for the same reasons as the blue-skinned dinosaur Yellow Lantern.

The third Yellow Lantern is Molten the Melter, who was once a brilliant scientist but was turned into a fool by an accident and gave him the superpower to melt all living things he touched.

"Hey, I'm asking you, Amunsu."

The blue-skinned dinosaur Yellow Lantern turned to Amunsu and asked, "Are you listening to me?" I ask you, weren't you guarded by Lord Senito at the outermost gate? How did you get inside? ”

"What about your partner?" he asked. ”

"Huh?" Mohr the Melter tilted his head beside him, and drops of yellow corrosive solution dripped from the door of his head before falling to the ground, corroding into a small pit.

Amon-Sue didn't answer the Yellow Lantern questions, and once again double-checked the cell.

Arlenesu's cell was different from that of other ordinary criminals, and in order to protect her safety, Senisto transferred her from her previous ordinary cell and arranged her into a fully enclosed cage, where only the outside could see the inside, but the inside could not see the outside and could not hear any sound.

Therefore, after confirming that Arlene Su could not hear what was happening outside at all, Amunsu sighed.

Then suddenly, he spoke very quickly:

"The most dangerous thing about Polyarosolos (blue-skinned dinosaur alien) is his ability to bite, be careful not to be bitten."

"The moose is unstoppable when he charges, but there is no threat to kill him before then."

"What are you talking about?" The blue-skinned dinosaur Yellow Lantern Man has realized that something is wrong: "Shut up! ”

"The Melt Man Mohr is the most dangerous of the three, the solution on his body will corrode everything as long as it comes into contact with his body, but if you turn on the Yellow Lantern Ring's personal stand, you can effectively isolate this corrosive ability, but be careful not to let him also use the Light Ring to break your stand, and then hold you, otherwise whoever will die......"

The blue-skinned dinosaur Yellow Lantern had realized that something was wrong, and he rushed towards Amon Sue: "What the hell are you ......?"

Poof!

Then the next moment a large amount of blood burst out of his chest, and he barely twisted his slender neck, and saw that the mechanical superman's eyes flashed red, condescending, indifferent to him.

So he immediately opened his mouth with the last bit of strength, and then he was decapitated by the hand knife of the mechanical superman like a slap.

The Yellow Lantern Moose tries to attack, but he doesn't have time to speed up, and the thermal gaze of the mechanical superman pierces his body.

"We're going to be fast."

Amunsu said quickly:

"We must kill everyone and take Arlene Sue before the living city of Lanks, the city of yellow lights, reacts, or we will face countless encirclements of living steel in the city controlled by the other party."

Before Mohr the Melter realized what was happening, the mechanical superman pierced his body with his palm, allowing the corrosive liquid to creak and corrode his metal hand.

As the Melt Man Mohr fell to the ground, the mechanical superman blankly tore off his hand filled with corrosive solution, and then the next moment countless metal tentacles stretched out from the fracture, and finally condensed a new hand for him.

"It's done."

Auto Superman said.

"Open the prison, and we retreat immediately with Arinsu. Let me ask one more question - has the giant bomb in the core of the Yellow Light City Lanks been arranged? ”

"I'm done." Amon Su said.

Then he took a deep breath and stood in front of his aunt, Arin Sue's cage.

As soon as he opened the cage, his aunt would soon become a weapon to threaten Sinisto.

"You can't bear it?" Mecha Superman asked.

"Nope." Amon Su said.

Immediately afterward, he opened the cage and hid to the side. What exactly he did was not yet visible to his aunt Arlens.

All in all, with the crack of the mechanical door, the mechanical superman walked in and saw Arlene Sue lying on the bed with his back to them, like a lump of soft mud without bones.

And where the two of them didn't see it, "Arlene Sue" on the bed showed a classic Batman-style wild laugh.

……

……

……

Chen Tao, who was still talking to Sinisto on the other side, suddenly frowned:

Clay Face reports a new situation to him.

He looked at Senisto thoughtfully, then turned his gaze to Mongo, who was still lying there.

It's not over, sit-ups, right?
