The devil's situation has gotten a little better recently.
The specific reason is simple. When Joe Ritz, the devil of hell, was killed,
Of course, the power of the Burning Hell will also be weakened to a certain extent.
Therefore, it is slightly less common for humans to corrupt into demons.
But overall, the number of demons is still increasing.
It wasn't just the people around the Buster Building who were busy at this time.
Those with certain powers began to form teams and appear in various places under the communication of SHIELD.
The purpose is to be able to deal with the devil's problem as soon as possible.
The current situation in Gotham City is the worst.
Those villains were somewhat restrained when Wayne was still just Batman.
But as the power of the Burning Hell began to spread, the attacks of these guys also lost their previous scale.
It is obviously unrealistic for Wayne to solve all problems by himself.
After the devil's tricks are played, ordinary people can't track their location at all.
Although most of the time the demons rush up to attack in a swarm.
But this does not mean that they will attack human territory without thinking.
When in Sanctuary, wars between demons and humans rarely started in cities.
After all, not all demons are too powerful to face.
Those who play dirty with these things are first-rate players.
During this time, Wayne kept traveling back and forth between Harrogath and Gotham City.
Although a little busy,
But overall it's still controllable.
And the corrupt behavior carried out by the devil in Gotham City is even somewhat beneficial to the city...
Those villains who cannot stand up to the stage are the most likely to become demons.
As for Penguins, who have a stand and are determined, they are rarely completely corrupted.
These are a group of guys who have to negotiate terms when facing demons, although it is not impossible to corrupt them.
But it’s not something that can be done casually.
However, some of these Batman's opponents have become complete demons.
Like the scarecrow...
Those who play with fear will eventually be consumed by fear... This guy has become a demon.
If he had to be classified into a category, he would probably be a little devil under Diavolo.
But this guy didn't feel anything bad about his condition at all.
When he found that his current appearance was more able to spread fear, this guy was quite happy...
But this kind of happiness can only go so far.
Because Wayne was already standing in front of him.
The scarecrow looks really devilish.
The linen bag on his head has grown together with his head, and his body has become skinny.
Like wood.
But his strength is much stronger, at least not long ago he broke Bain's wrist in an arm wrestling match.
By the way, half of Bain's body was torn off...
A little cruel,
But this is normal for demons.
"I thought about it before, when you guys turned into demons and stood in front of me.
Should I put you in jail like in the past?
But seeing how you are now, I feel that letting you die directly would be the right choice."
Wayne felt particularly headache looking at the scarecrow...
This guy was once a human, but now he's a demon.
So does he want to kill him?
According to what he learned from the Holy Mountain of Harrogas,
After a person becomes a demon, there is no possibility of turning back.
So counting as a demon is the most appropriate choice.
But after actually seeing the scarecrow, he still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
Wayne used to be very afraid of super powers.
Because he thinks he can't master those superpowers, and Wayne also knows who he is.
Although he was somewhat boastful, Wayne believed that once he lost control, he would become a huge problem that could not be solved.
Fortunately, after becoming a barbarian, he did not become powerful in an instant like he obtained superpowers in other ways.
After becoming a barbarian, Wayne was the only one who never stopped practicing his martial arts.
And the Nephalem's becoming stronger never happens overnight.
No matter how unexpected the situation is, there is a process for the Nephalem to become stronger. ①
"Haha, I'm surprised to see you now.
More out of curiosity, after you become stronger, will you still feel fear?"
The scarecrow released a cloud of mist with a wave of his hand.
This thing is his old fear potion.
It's just that after becoming a demon, this thing became a part of his body.
As he gets stronger, the effect of the fear potion will increase.
As for whether the Nephalem are afraid... of course they are.
It's just that each Nephalem has his own way of solving this "abnormal" state.
Wayne has endured Scarecrow's fear potion more than once.
Although it was painful every time, he could get through it.
This time Wayne also wanted to know if he had become stronger along with his will.
So he didn't avoid it.
So he was tricked.
But the good news is that he didn't suffer much this time, but the bad news is that his body escaped...
The fear potion used to make him hallucinate and think of the things he was most afraid of.
But he can still control his body.
But at this time,
He hasn't seen the hallucination yet, but his body has already started to escape...
It's kind of like a rule...
This is not surprising.
Generally, the fear of demons is so crude.
Even Bulcasso had only seen the ability to weave illusions in the great demon Diavolo.
But that is Diavolo's realm of fear, where illusions will come true.
As long as the upper limit of the illusion does not exceed Diavolo's strength, it can be realized.
When he hacked to death the Great Demon God, Bulcaisu hacked to death several weakened versions of himself in the realm of fear.
Yes, most of the fears in the Nephalem's hearts are themselves.②
Not only are the archangels worried about what will happen after the Nephalem's time, but the Nephalem themselves are also worried about this problem.
It's a pity that the great demon Diavolo obviously didn't fully master his power at that time.
Otherwise, the illusion created would be just a weakened Bulcaisel.
Of course, if you are unlucky, the degree of weakening may not be as high as imagined.
Fortunately, these illusions are easy to resolve.
Obviously Diavolo cannot simulate authority other than fear.
So during that battle, Diablo directly created his own illusion.
After all, the creation of Nephalem authority sometimes seems like a joke...
This is also the reason why Bulcaisel believes that the great demon Diavolo has not yet fully mastered his own power.
If you could control all your power, you wouldn't be able to create illusions like a joke.
"ha!"
Wayne finally saw the opportunity and let out a war cry!
When the war cry rang out, Wayne felt that the blood in his body seemed to be boiling.
But this feeling quickly subsided, as if the opportunity hadn't arrived yet.
"I see you haven't seen the vision yet.
But don't worry, your physical fear is an ability I only gained after becoming a demon.
It will take a little while for me to be truly proud of my power.
Now, do you see anything?"
A smile appeared on the scarecrow's sack face, and the smile was very twisted.
Or ugly.
But Wayne really started to see the situation around him change.
The place itself is a small alley,
But now the alley seems a little darker.
Only the street lights overhead were still on.
"Pa~da~da~da~"
The sound of a series of beads falling to the ground was heard.
Wayne's face became particularly ugly.
"What morning is six legs,
What about two legs at night?"
The scarecrow's voice sounded slowly.
Waves of red flames began to appear on Wayne's body.
His blood began to feel that boiling feeling again.
"Your ability seems to have unique insights into seeking death.
I think this is just part of it?
If I hear you continue this topic,
I swear to Bulcasso that I will put your head in your chest!"
There were sounds of teeth grinding in Wayne's words.
"The answer is...Wayne One!"
Before the Scarecrow finished speaking, a mace grew on his head...
Wayne did not use the skill Hammer of the Ancestors.
Although this skill is extremely lethal, it will turn the scarecrow directly into minced meat...
Although Wayne's strength cannot be said to be able to face those legendary demons alone.
But for a scarecrow who has just turned into a demon, it is actually no more difficult for Wayne to kill him than to crush an ant...
"You should thank Bulcasso, I just swore in his name!
So I'll push your head into your chest!"
Wayne's voice became duller and rougher.
His body swelled with rage.
The rage of the berserker!
Thanks to the Scarecrow's evil joke, Wayne finally understood this barbarian's ultimate ultimate move!
Although not yet to the point where I can choose runes.
But this gesture shows that Wayne is now qualified to fight the legendary demon.
Although the possibility of winning is still slim, at least we can have a comeback.
"You...you have super powers!?"
The scarecrow's voice was trembling.
Apparently his understanding of Wayne is somewhat behind the times.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be so arrogant at this time.
The best option to defeat Batman is an encounter, and it's best to let him face an unfamiliar opponent in an encounter.
This is a consensus among the villains in Gotham City.
Most of the time, they can take advantage of Batman in encounters.
Because Batman is just an ordinary person.
But now things are getting a little worse.
Wayne became a savage.
Although he has not lost his habit of making various preparations.
But the shortcomings in the encounter no longer exist.
"What I said before was that you had some trump cards to dare to anger a barbarian in this way.
Now it seems that you have become a demon and you don’t even have a demon to guide you!
The average demon will definitely tell their newly transformed companions the basics of the Nephalem.
Among the native demons of Gotham City, there is at least one rumor that there is a barbarian in Gotham City!
For a guy like you, I guess your corruption process is not completely complete.
In other words, this corruption is all part of your plan!?"
Wayne's tone was full of anger.
The Barbarian's Berserker's Wrath Stance will not expand the equipment on his body.
But the appearance of the Berserker's Wrath doesn't reveal much of its original appearance.
No matter what legendary equipment it is, it is overshadowed by the barbarian bloodline left by the first generation ancestors to future generations.
This is the power of angry authority, and it is normal to overwhelm the legendary appearance.
"It doesn't matter, you are at least mostly a devil now.
So even if your head is pressed into your chest, you won't die.
I will entertain you well, and you also gave me a reason not to kill you.
I just heard that Tony needs a half-corrupted test subject.
It just so happens that I can still try to save your human side!"
Wayne said and took two steps forward.
At this point the illusion has completely disappeared!
There has never been any rule that only Tony can monitor the whereabouts of others, and there is no reason why only SHIELD can monitor others.
So it seems quite normal for Wayne to monitor the situation in Buster Tower.
Of course, spying on Tony was a bit troublesome.
With the existence of Jarvis, information monitoring will be easily discovered by Jarvis.
But it doesn't matter!
It’s not like Wayne doesn’t have help!
His assistant is the Cyborg named Victor!
Cyborg appeared in front of Nick Fury, albeit partly of his own volition!
But it's more because Wayne wants him to!
Nick Fury is not the first to find Cyborg!
The first person is Wayne!
Wayne recalled some "past events" a long time ago.
For example, I have actually been active for decades.
Naturally, there is something about "Justice League".
It was only after he recalled those things that Wayne frankly accepted the fact that he was a barbarian.
This is better than doing all kinds of weird experiments on his own body.
There is no need to find a way to merge that fast kid with yourself, nor do you need to transplant any weird things into your body.
There is no need to wear a damn helmet that will make you stronger as long as you wear it. ③
In panic, the Scarecrow once again spilled the fear potion...
He was looking forward to the effect that could scare the body before.
Then he would find a chance to escape.
But since Wayne doesn't even know that he is a barbarian, he naturally won't understand that the stance of the Berserker's Wrath ignores the "abnormal" state.
"Click~"
Only a pair of eyes were left on the round linen head.
The other parts have been pressed into the chest.
The good news is that demons don't need to breathe to survive.
The bad news is that the Scarecrow still has some human characteristics, such as being paralyzed if his spine is broken.
So he couldn't move.
Wayne grimaced, and then opened a portal to Buster Tower.
The scarecrow in his hand is not dead yet, and in its current state it can serve as a test subject for Tony's instrument.
If successful, the human part of Wayne will be sent to Arkham General Hospital.
That's right, Arkham has been upgraded.
The psychiatric department is in the basement, one floor lower than the morgue.
As for the demonic part of the scarecrow, there is no need to discuss it by killing him directly.
All devils deserve to die!
Especially the kind of devil who tells wicked jokes!
