Chapter 4047 MU: The Superbody Incident (127)
Hearing the commotion, Constantine turned and saw an extremely strong figure enter through the other entrance of the mine. He was completely hidden in the dense darkness; the eerie, cold light reflected from his metal armor should have revealed more detailed features, but the inexplicably approaching chill prevented him from observing closely. The cold wind blowing through the mine carried a faint smell of blood, and his cloak billowed around his body, adding a touch of almost sinister cruelty to the already overwhelming sense of oppression.
"Batman?" Constantine exclaimed in surprise. Even from just a silhouette, he could tell this wasn't the main universe's Batman. But this Batman was probably quite powerful as well.
"Who is that?" Captain Universe Spider-Man asked.
Spider-Man Noir didn't answer; he just gripped his gun tighter, relieved that he had already sent out a distress signal.
No one expected Batman to come here personally. Although Batman is not afraid of fighting, the current situation clearly doesn't warrant his personal intervention. Batman's appearance at this crucial moment is astounding.
However, it makes sense. DC currently has no Infinity Stones, so the ones Schiller and his partner possess are crucial. Even just one could prevent Marvel from collecting them all. In any case, at least one Infinity Stone needs to be sent to Apokolips.
Spider-Man Noir recalled the enormous planet he had seen when he arrived, and he understood that once the Infinity Stones entered Apokolips, they would never have a chance to get them back, and therefore there would be no possibility of collecting them all again.
If they can steal all the Infinity Stones from them here and bring them back to command center, this could be their closest chance to victory. This battle must be won.
"Make your move," said Spider-Man Noir. "We have to keep them here."
Without further hesitation, Captain Universe raised his hand, and a cold white beam of light pierced through the tunnel. But the expected scream didn't come; the light seemed to be blocked by something.
Captain Universe was slightly puzzled. Just as the light faded and he was about to check, a strong figure appeared behind him, and a hand covered in gauntlets pierced through his chest.
"How did you..."
Captain Spider-Man only had time to leave behind these half-sentences before he instantly transformed into a streak of white light and disappeared into the mine tunnel.
Spider-Man Noir was stunned. Captain Universe was the strongest Spider-Man in terms of raw power. He was an Eternal Apostle, capable of using eternal divine power. In terms of physique alone, he was at the level of a god. Whether it was energy protection or physical defense, he was at the top level. How could he be instantly killed?
Either Captain Universe is in trouble, or Batman has a serious problem!
Realizing something was wrong, Spider-Man Noir quickly retreated. But at that moment, Spider-Man Evil, who had been knocked away by the Batmobile, had already returned to the mine tunnel. Schiller fired a laser beam, but Spider-Man nimbly jumped onto the mine tunnel wall to dodge.
His skull burst into blue flames, and with a silent shriek, Constantine turned pale.
"You...are guilty!" A booming voice echoed through the mine tunnel, and flames instantly erupted from Constantine's body.
"Damn it, you think you can judge me?!" Constantine cursed through gritted teeth, meeting the eyes of the evil Spider-Man without flinching. He pulled a glass bottle from the box and crushed it, the blood mixing with the viscous, dark red soil inside.
In an instant, a clay figure of Constantine stood in front of the real Constantine, and the flames were transferred to the clay figure, which was almost instantly charred black.
Even the wicked Spider-Man let out a scream. Constantine sneered, "Whoever harms Cain will be punished sevenfold!"
Ghost Spider-Man fell off the wall, and Schiller went up to strike, but the blow was blocked by flames. Constantine then smashed a bottle of holy water on him, and Ghost Spider-Man immediately began to smoke.
Constantine knelt down to pray, and incantations swirled around the evil Spider-Man. The flames began to dim, and Schiller raised his dagger high once more.
Shit!
The Demon Spider-Man, pierced through the chest, slowly dissolved into a streak of white light. When the two stood up again, Spider-Man and Batman were no longer in the mine tunnel. Schiller had just seen Spider-Man Noir run away, and Batman had gone after him.
The two of them chased after it in that direction, and Constantine asked, "Who is that guy?"
"One of the most capable Batmen."
Constantine immediately realized the significance of this assessment, saying, "That Spider-Man who destroyed our spaceship could use superhuman powers, how did he kill him?"
“This Batman also knows magic.” Schiller paused for a moment before continuing, “His magical energy comes from the gods.”
Constantine assumed Batman had made a pact with the gods and obtained magical energy from them. But he felt this didn't quite fit Batman's character; how could someone like Batman possibly make a pact with a god?
Schiller had a premonition that the reinforcements would be very strong, because even if they only retrieved one Infinity Stone, the enemy's plan to collect all the Infinity Stones would be completely ruined. Therefore, the main universe Batman would definitely go to great lengths to save them.
He just hadn't expected that it wouldn't be Superman who arrived, but rather Batman from Arkham. However, Schiller could roughly guess why.
Most Supermen aren't very resistant to magic, or they feel they don't understand magic and lack experience fighting such enemies. Therefore, sending Superman into Spider-Man's team when there's someone like Captain Universe isn't a good option.
On the contrary, Batman from Arkham had just raided Mount Olympus before the battle, and had maxed out his tech tree for dealing with the gods, making him the best at dealing with enemies wielding divine power. Sure enough, he sent Captain Universe back to his hometown the moment they met.
Schiller knew he must have used some means, but in any case, taking down this most threatening Spider-Man would greatly reduce their pressure afterwards.
Just then, they came across a huge hollow. It seemed that some kind of large mining equipment used to be parked here, but it had been moved away, leaving only a very empty space, so large that it seemed to stretch as far as the eye could see.
Spider-Man Noir has been cornered.
"This guy is definitely not right!" Spider-Man Noir thought to himself. He possesses strength far exceeding that of a normal human. Who says Batman doesn't have superpowers?!
Knowing he was likely doomed, Spider-Man Noir activated the recording function on his communication device, preparing to record his last moments. He leaned against the wall, panting heavily, staring intently at the approaching figure in the darkness.
"Hey! Stop!!!" Suddenly a voice appeared above the void, and then a red and blue figure jumped down, picked up Spider-Man Noir, and swung to the other side.
Immediately afterwards, several figures swooped down and surrounded the people in the center of the hole.
Schiller turned to look. It seemed that the Spider-Man from the main universe had rescued Spider-Man Noir. Among the others who fell down behind, he could recognize two Miles Morales and one Spider-Man from the Gwen Dolls universe. There also seemed to be a Spider-Man from the cinematic universe. The other costumes looked too similar to distinguish them.
There is no light in the mine, but the Spider-Men's compound eyes have night vision, and with their spider-sense, darkness is their domain, which is actually a disadvantage to others.
"Do you have any lighting equipment?" Schiller asked Constantine, turning to her.
Constantine pulled something that looked like a crystal ball directly from the box, threw it upwards, and the object suddenly emitted a bright light, almost like a flashbang.
In that instant, the Spider-Men at the back of the formation had their spider-senses going off like crazy. They instinctively tried to dodge, but when they scattered, they blocked the path of the Spider-Men in front of them. As a result, when the enemy arrived, the Spider-Men in front of them were forced right in front of Schiller and his men.
Would Schiller be polite to them? His lightsaber flashed, and he charged into the crowd, hacking at anyone in sight. Constantine even pulled out his gun and started firing at the humanoid figures. The Spider-Men screamed in terror, as if the floor were burning hot.
The crystal ball, tossed into the air, hovered, emitting a faint glow, just enough to illuminate the open space. Using this light, Schiller located Gwen's Spider-Man, whose uniform was the most conspicuously colored, and thrust his sword at her.
Just as Gwen's Spider-Man dodged Arkham Batman's charge, he turned around and saw a lightsaber coming straight for his neck. He quickly jumped away and screamed the instant he saw Schiller's face.
The Spider-Man from the main universe next to him was confused, but then his spider-sense started beeping wildly. He rolled away to dodge Schiller's downward slash, and when he saw Schiller's face clearly, he screamed.
After missing two shots in a row, Schiller also sensed some trouble. These Spider-Men's spider-sense was too sharp, and the large space here was perfect for them to dodge, making it impossible for them to hit anyone.
Schiller turned around and saw that Constantine was nowhere to be seen. He probably didn't desert, so he was likely preparing weapons of mass destruction. Hopefully, that would work on Spider-Man.
But the Spider-Men didn't just want to hide; they came here with a purpose. So one after another, they pounced on Batman Arkham in an attempt to delay his actions.
However, they clearly underestimated this Batman's strength, assuming he was just like other Batmen with ordinary human strength. Therefore, when making tactical decisions, sometimes even when their spider-sense went off, they wouldn't choose to dodge, but instead risk taking a punch, trading injury for injury.
In normal circumstances, this choice is not wrong. After all, if an ordinary person punches Spider-Man, Spider-Man will be fine. But if Spider-Man punches an ordinary person, the other person will basically be in serious trouble.
Unfortunately, they'd run into a tough opponent this time. One Spider-Man lunged at Arkham Batman, intending to punch him and slow him down. Arkham Batman had already turned around, meaning he'd noticed him, and his spider-sense activated, but Spider-Man didn't stop; instead, he planned to exchange punches.
The next second, a fist whistled through the air and slammed into his chest. Spider-Man coughed up blood, then was sent flying by a knee strike, followed by a downward elbow strike that slammed him heavily to the ground. Spider-Man felt his neck being stepped on, and with a crack, his spine snapped, turning him into a streak of white light.
The swarm of spiders was completely silent.
As Batman Arkham swung his cape and turned around, the Spider-Men seemed to suddenly realize something, and some kind of information began to circulate rapidly within the spider swarm.
"He's that Batman!"
"Yes, that's it! The one that's really amazing!"
"The one who became president!"
"It's definitely him!"
"What should I do?"
"We have to stall him! We absolutely have to stall him!"
"Yes, we can't let them get away, quickly hold them off!"
The Spider-Men gritted their teeth and stomped their feet, then pounced on Arkham Batman once more.
