Chapter 414 Ionic Shark, possessed by Batman!
Chapter 414 Ion Shark, possessed by...Batman!
"We have recovered the Green Lantern Central Energy Battery." Killer Croc's voice came to Chen Tao's ears, followed by Bane's deafening scolding.
"We did find a Green Lantern to help replace Bane, but Bane is now busy scolding people."
Chen Tao still expressed understanding on this point. Bane's biggest dream is probably to grow up in prison with his mother. This may be a dream that Bane, who was half immersed in a water dungeon in his childhood, had imagined in his occasional weakness.
"So now it's ready, Batman, what should I do?"
He asked: "Release the Ion Shark?"
"No, no. Of course not. Bring him back to us first. Is William Hand with you?"
"Yes, I'll leave him on the spaceship to take care of the Green Lantern Central Energy Battery." Killer Croc said.
"Bring him here with you."
Chen Tao specifically instructed: "Pay attention to protecting the other party's safety."
That's right, Chen Tao brought William Hand here this time, not only to train the future leader of the Black Lantern Corps, but also William Hand is a possible backup member in addition to Bane, who may be the host of the Ion Shark.
For the green lantern beast Ion Shark, what he needs is a creature with incredible willpower or away from other more complex emotions.
Ion Shark can establish a connection with such creatures and make them its host, just as the fearful yellow lantern beast Parallax Monster and the red blood slaughter bull chase the corresponding emotional energy, the internal logic of what Ion Shark chases is the same as theirs.
But compared to the fear and complete anger that horrifies others, the so-called indomitable will is very harmless, and it will not reversely control the host like Parallax Demon or Blood Slaughter Bull.
It sounds very useful, right? There are no side effects, it will not control others, and it can enhance strength and improve strength, and suddenly obtain one of the most powerful powers in the universe.
But the most tricky part is that the conditions for becoming the host of the green lantern beast are much more difficult to estimate than the conditions for the hosts of the other two color lantern beasts.
Facing the parallax monster, Chen Tao can choose to pull out the scarecrow, because he knows who is good at manipulating fear at a glance.
Facing the blood slaughter bull is the same. Chen Tao knows where to find an angry avenger, but for the ion shark-a person with real tenacious willpower will not write "I have willpower" on his forehead.
This is much harder to find than those who express their simple emotions from the outside.
So from the beginning, Chen Tao was not sure that Bane could really do what he wanted, so he pulled William Hand over.
In addition to strong willpower, the trait of "staying away from other more complex emotions" can also create Ion Man.
As the first black lantern corpse in history preset by the Black Death Emperor, William Hand is simply born to be an insulator of other emotional spectra, which just meets the minimum requirements for the possession of the lantern beast.
For the Green Lantern Ion Shark, he would be happy to fight with his old rival Parallax Monster, and what Chen Tao had to solve was to find him a host.
Admittedly, the stronger the host, the stronger the power of the Lanterns, but if it is not certain that Bane can really succeed, it is not a safe enough backup to let William Hand be prepared at all times.
If it really doesn't work...
Chen Tao slowly retreated and transformed back into the appearance of Green Lantern Batman, silently watching the Parallax Demon Mongo who was constantly venting himself in the air and gushing a lot of energy.
The opponent was like epilepsy, constantly grabbing his head and even hitting it repeatedly with his fists.
The fist filled with huge yellow light power made a burst on his yellow forehead, as rhythmic as beating a drum.
Chen Tao knew that it was Mongo who was fighting with the Parallax Monster for control of the body. No matter what the final result of the fight was, for Chen Tao, he must be forced to face a destructive and powerful enemy.
If it really doesn't work... Chen Tao thought. He had asked Bane to quietly gather a large number of dead Guardians of the Universe, among whom he deliberately left two living little blue men. He asked Bane to use Brainiac's shrinking technology to shrink them all and then put them in a bottle. (Note: Chapter 389)
They are now all poisoned by the "grass growing on the body" series of poisons specially made by Poison Ivy, and have no power to resist. Chen Tao had previously used the telepathic ability of Bat Brainiac to forcibly break through the psychological defenses of these immortals and read his memory.
The Guardians of the Universe are still good at controlling the light beasts. The little blue man Gunther even successfully sealed the parallax monster with four green lanterns. If Chen Tao is really forced into a corner, it will not be the Ion Shark that possesses him, but he forces the other party...
Chen Tao has just shared these memories with Bane. As long as he has the potential to become the host of the Ion Shark, plus some forcing skills, it is not difficult to become the Ion Man.
Of course, this also requires that the Ion Shark agrees to perform the most basic operation of possession.
Chen Tao once again communicated remotely with Luther, who was about to treat the War World as his home.
"Luther, you..." As a result, as soon as Chen Tao communicated, he saw Luther sitting at the head of the luxurious tribal city banquet, with some little people jumping around below.
Is this the honored guest of the mixed war tribe?
"How are you doing over there?"
Chen Tao asked in a low voice.
"It couldn't be better, Bat." He whispered: "
"You can fire at any time."
Chen Tao nodded, and after confirming the last preparation, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then continued:
"I ask you to release Ion Shark and Killer Croc."
Chen Tao gave the other party an order in a low voice: "And Bane will try to become Ion Man."
He said this, and then he turned to look at Mongo who was still holding his head and screaming.
"You'd better hurry up, Mongo can't hold on for long, whether you can become Ion Man or not, I must know your progress. "
While Chen Tao was communicating with Killer Croc and the others, he also sent a coordinate to Luther, which was exactly where they were now.
The significance of the coordinate was that once he was determined to take action, the huge energy cannon from the War World that was powerful enough to annihilate the planet would completely hit this place and destroy all living creatures.
Unless Mongo was possessed by the Parallax Monster and became as strong as the Parallax Demon Hal, even he would find it difficult to survive such an attack.
As long as Mongo died, Chen Tao only needed to recover the Parallax Monster that had lost its host again, which was much more convenient than a monster with a host.
It was not that he did not intend to attack Mongo while he was holding his head and howling. The yellow light energy was reshaping its body, helping it to recover its torn body, and it was stronger and more unstoppable than before.
However, for Chen Tao, such a change meant that the willpower of the Parallax Monster had in some way surpassed Mongo in fact, which was a dangerous signal. If Mongo is attacked at this time, it will increase Mongo's loss and help the Parallax Monster to control Mongo's body faster.
Chen Tao cannot do that, but correspondingly, he has no way to interfere with the fight between Mongo and the Parallax Monster. This is a fight at the level of will, which is quite idealistic. Any interference can only make the result worse.
He saw that Mongo was not without any preparation when he tried to forcibly control the Parallax Monster. He did find many methods from Lantern No. 1 and Caronna. But such changes did not change the final result.
It will be over soon, he thought to himself. He witnessed Mongo falling into a more and more decline. He had seen that the other party was stretched to the limit, counting the days, and then silently counting down-
3, 2, 1.
Then... there was silence.
Mongo, who was shaking and slapping his head, and was wrapped in yellow light energy, was no longer there.
Now appearing here is...
"Hello, Batman. "
Chen Tao heard the voice, and saw that the corner of Mongo's mouth stretched to the back of his ears, even tearing his muscles and tendons, revealing a sunny and cheerful smile on the other's face. That is one of the most standard signs of the Parallax Demon:
A smile full of evil and terrifying temperament, which makes people want to tremble with fear when they see it, and will definitely be successfully instilled with fear.
At a certain period in the DC universe, this smile once represented the most important person, a person who caused a zero-time crisis that almost destroyed the entire universe.
But today this smile did not get the recognition he should have gotten. Some effects.
To be honest, although the Parallax Monster had just controlled Mongo not long ago, he had been wandering in the universe for many years before being locked up in the Green Lantern Central Energy Battery by the Guardians of the Universe. When each host possessed by the Parallax Monster showed that smile, the Parallax Monster could more or less gain fear from others, but this time, he only gained a smile from Batman.
Looking at the evil and twisted smile that Batman showed to him, the Parallax Monster didn't know what to say for a while.
Chen Tao was stalling time, and he sent a message to Killer Croc: "What's going on?"
"Bane has inherited the power of the Ion Shark, but the situation is a little bad."
Chen Tao heard Killer Croc's voice, and it seemed a little panicked. There was also William Hand next to him, who was speaking to Killer Croc at a very fast speed.
"Bane failed to control the Ion Shark. He was controlled by the Ion Shark, and the huge green light energy wrapped around his whole body. Then he fell directly towards you. "Killer Croc said succinctly: "He flew too fast and ran too fast. William Hand and I didn't have time to react." "Bane, who is wrapped in the green energy of Ion Shark, is rushing towards you now," he said incoherently: "We are following him now." "Batman, what should we do? "
Chen Tao didn't want to deal with Killer Croc anymore. He turned sideways and saw something like a burning green flame in the dark and boundless starry sky outside the gravitational outer space of Oa Star. It was as brilliant as the aurora of a planet before its death. And wrapped in the center of those illusory green flames was Bane himself.
"Mon--Go--"
The voice was so high that it seemed to come from the sky, deafening.
A huge amount of green energy gushed out from Bane's body. Although the ion sharks did not completely enter his body, most of their bodies were still not outside of Bane's strong muscles. However, as Bane roared, the body structures of the ion sharks that did not enter his body also exerted force along with his roar.
The gushing green energy formed an energy wave like the reverse roll of the galaxy, and rushed towards Mongo, who was possessed by the Parallax Monster, like a wave.
Parallax Monster immediately turned his attention from Batman to his old rival, Ion Shark.
He controlled Mongo, without saying a word, and before Bane, who was possessed by Ion Shark, could take the next step, he suddenly disappeared from the spot.
The next moment, Bane flew backwards, his eyes turned green, and his body was completely controlled by Ion Shark. Mongo's body grew a large number of yellow energy structures like octopus tentacles, rolling towards Bane, and Bane was naturally unwilling to be outdone. Under the control of Ion Shark, he tried to fight Mongo with the same moves.
"It's useless."
Then he heard Mongo's voice, which mixed with Parallax Monster's voice, and exploded in Ion Shark's ears like a duet of sound.
"Your host is even less suitable for you than my host. Although he barely met your requirements... Wait?"
Parallax Monster said halfway and suddenly realized something. He controlled Mongo's body, launched several attacks at Bane to force him to move, and then carefully observed the connection between his back and part of the Ion Shark.
Then the Parallax Demon laughed: "What a joke! It's not just that the host is too rubbish, but this host completely relied on forcing you to become your host. It's ridiculous."
Suddenly, the speed of the yellow light Mongo increased by a level, and his fists attacked Bane like a storm.
Although limited by the host, many of the Parallax Monster's powerful powers cannot be displayed without scruples, but in the face of an old opponent who is more restrained than himself, the Parallax Monster will never give up this good opportunity to bully the weak.
That kind of low-level attack makes the Parallax Monster enjoy it, and it doesn't even need to really cause much damage to the Ion Shark.
"I will kill your host first, the Ion Shark. Then you..."
He said this, and then controlled Mongo to kill Bane.
Mongo and Bane were huddled together, and the Parallax Monster and Ion Shark attached to them were biting each other at close range, but overall, the Parallax Monster had the upper hand.
But the Parallax Monster, which kept biting the Ion Shark, ignored one person, a very important person.
And the Ion Shark cared about this person very much, to the point of being deliberate.
When Chen Tao stood in front of Bane and attacked the enemy in front of him, he suddenly felt a pair of cold hands on his shoulders from behind, it was Bane.
And following closely was the green energy of the Ion Shark.
If we can't defeat each other, then maybe we should change hosts.
At this moment, the Ion Shark temporarily possessed... Batman!
