Shadow of the Beautiful World

Quicksand is flying, dust is rolling, and on the deserts of Central Asia, the wind filled with charged ions is rolling without direction.

In the blue and purple thunder and lightning confrontation, several tornadoes rising from the sky and the earth, spinning around the battlefield of the two thunder gods at high speed.

It was like a reappearance of a scene in a myth. Tens of millions of tons of quicksand were swept up into the sky, filled with water vapor in the gloomy black clouds that spread for thousands of miles.

And with a firm posture, it fell down like a stone.

No one was seen, only the explosion of energy and the collision of weapons echoed in the land.

Among the shadowy buildings, two figures crossed once, the blue and purple lightnings were summoned by their respective war hammers, like roaring angry dragons, annihilated invisibly when they collided with each other.

This piece of desert that no one pays attention to is considered unlucky. After the end of this battle between dragons and tigers, the terrain here may be permanently changed.

kuang

After Steve landed, he turned around like he was throwing a shield, and skillfully threw the Anchor Hammer in his hand, and the weapon roared and hit his enemy.

Batman with Thor's Hammer moved faster. Under the blessing of thunder, he was like a jumping phantom, bringing out afterimages in several flashes, and then smashed at Steve with the hammer in both hands amidst the thunder.

The two fighting masters already knew that pure energy attacks would not be able to harm each other at all. When the energy was useless, they began to fight in close quarters.

boom

The war hammer dropped by Batman was held in the air by Steve's alienated left hand.

The weight of Mjolnir and the ravages of Thor's power smashed Steve to the ground, and the alienated organ like a black bone plate on his left arm was completely stripped off with the sound of cracking.

Bone fragments flew, and the purple lightning wrapped around Steve's body was also defeated, and the silver-gray warhammer drove straight in.

Batman struck mercilessly, as if he was dealing with a life and death enemy. The hammer he dropped was unbiased, and it hit Captain Dread on the shoulder.

This blow was really powerful, and Steve's whole body would be smashed into the ground.

It smashed together with the ground stripped of sand.

But the chain wrapped around Steve's right hand kept the weapon in place, and although his left shoulder was shattered by Batman's blow, he still had his arm to move.

While waving the chains, the heavy Greythos warhammer struck from behind Batman like a poisonous snake. Bruce, who sensed the danger, was about to evacuate immediately, but Steve grabbed his wrist with his twisted left hand.

Can't dodge.

He could only grit his teeth to summon the thunder and lightning that fell from the sky, intending to take this blow forcefully.

The divine power of fear hit Batman's back at the next moment. At the moment of the collision, the fear hammer emitted a scream that hit the soul directly. Even War Hulk couldn't resist this kind of spiritual attack.

With the physical collision and mental resistance, Batman opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood while the thunder was shattering.

In fact, these two people are still fighting in the previous mode, but whether it is the Venerable Sky Hammer or the person holding the Thunder Hammer, the destructive power caused by the power held by the two is hundreds of times higher than before.

Every punch and kick will cause the ground to vibrate, and the energy conflict that escapes from the body is even more like land bombing, like a firefight between two angry gods.

However, this is actually just the result of the two people's inability to control their own energy well.

It looks cool, but the actual combat efficiency is very wasteful. When Merlin fights with other heavenly fathers, he will not make such an exaggerated scene.

Cool is cool, but the power has been seriously dispersed.

A fist that cannot be closed cannot really hurt a strong enemy.

If you want to stop this growing crisis, maybe you should choose a more righteous force.

Batman wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his hand. He looked at Steve Rogers who stood up from the broken pit in front of him. He raised the buzzing silver hammer in his hand and said:

If I can lift Mjolnir, then you can lift it too.

It's not a question of strength.

Steve's left hand was twisting abnormally from the shoulder down. The power of fear and the power of Thor were extremely hostile forces. After being injured by Batman in the arm, the power of fear that could repair the injury was excluded.

This made his wound impossible to heal.

In the face of Batman's questioning, his answer is quite simple.

Captain Dread raised the chain on his right hand, and the black anchor-shaped hammer hung low under his fingers, swinging in the air like a pendulum on a clock.

Drops of blood dripped onto the Shrieker's hammer, like drops of water, reflecting dancing and multi-layered light.

Betty Ross is the victim chosen by the big snake. The girl who felt guilty towards me in order to save her lover is swaying the boundary breaker with her life. I must defeat War Hulk before she enters the battlefield.

Otherwise, even if Hulk and Banner are finally awakened, they will fall into unsolvable despair because of the loss of Betty... The snake promised me that when I lift this war hammer, he will release Betty's curse.

Steve raised his right arm, shaking the Anchor Hammer again, and said:

If it wasn't me, there would be someone else.

The big snake just needs its fear hammer to be held. It just needs these war hammers to absorb the fear of all beings. Compared to other innocent people being involved and being treated as victims, I would rather bear it myself.

Get out of the way, Bruce, the War Hulk will escape at any moment! I don't have much time left.

Of course Batman wouldn't just let it go so easily.

He held Thor's Hammer, and quietly held something behind the armor with his left hand. He stared at Captain Dread, who had made up his mind under the guidance of the darkness, and said:

So you are sure that you will not be captured by the darkness, you are sure that you can overcome the temptation of the big snake with your will... With all due respect, this is too stupid, Steve.

When people like you fall into the darkness, it will be a great blow to the order that this world pursues. When you return to the world with the power of darkness, those young people who grew up listening to your stories will be plundered. All the trust of a hero.

This is the reason why the big snake chose you. It doesn't value your strength, but your charisma!

You will become its most terrifying vanguard of fear, and you will subvert the world for it.

crash

Batman raised his silver-gray hammer, and amidst the blue thunder, he said to Steve:

This is why I came here. The damage you can do to this world is beyond the reach of ten War Hulks. I must stop you here!

I have to get you back, Steve.

Yeah, isn't there still you?

An awkward smile appeared on Steve's face filled with black runes, and he said:

Just like the responsibilities you shouldered in the Avengers, I believe you have a hole card for everything. Take a step back and say, even if I really become a heinous bastard, you are enough to support people's yearning for heroes .”

I'm already a cripple, Bruce, and this will be my last fight...

Please, let me do one last thing for this world.

Negotiations between the two broke down.

The next moment, purple fury and dazzling thunder erupted again. Captain Dread inspired the warhammer's spiritual scream, and smashed the alien hammer of fear at Batman in the form of a flying hammer.

And Batman also threw out Mjolnir, and attacked the incoming Warhammer without giving in.

While the two weapons were confronting each other, the two warriors rushed towards each other like charging bulls.

But compared to Steve who was unreserved, the moment the two touched, the expressionless Batman blocked Steve's punch with his right hand.

He lowered his body, opened his left hand, and pressed the thing in his hand against Captain Dread's chest.

The white light of the phoenix fragments shone between the two, and when the light enveloped Batman and Captain Dread, Bruce's voice also rang in the ears of Steve, who was full of astonishment.

He said:

You want to save, to fight against evil, but the stupidest mistake you make is to face the serpent alone... A tenacious soul is not enough to resist the invasion of the fearful Father.

But two companions can last until dawn!

After the time when Merlin died, I have sworn that I will not let this world take away my few other friends!

Let's fight together, Steve! We'll win!

hum

The white light completely enveloped the two of them in the next moment.

And Mjolnir, who lost his master, and Greythos Destroyer of Will lost all their magic almost at the same time, just like two ordinary weapons, falling from the sky to the ground.

And without the confrontation of divine power, the rolling thunder and lightning above the desert sky also collapsed.

When the gloomy clouds parted, a patter of rain fell from the sky, sprinkled in this desert that had been completely reshaped.

The period of strife and cannibalism is over.

Next, it is time to clench both fists and unanimously speak out.

—————

War Hulk is fighting hard.

It was hit by Thor's Hammer and landed in Central Asia near Afghanistan. Although it was attacked by Thor's bat while injured, War Hulk was very uncomfortable.

But the good thing is that the attack also sent it out of the predicament of being chased by Steve.

The strangely shaped warhammer in Captain Dread's hand can hit the soul directly, and that thing is simply the nemesis of War Hulk, whose physical defense is almost invincible.

The two consciousnesses, which were forcibly folded by the angels using phoenix fragments, even showed signs of splitting after being stimulated by screams of fear several times.

If he is beaten down by Captain Dread again, War Hulk's consciousness will probably disappear on the spot.

It should theoretically be the most destructive of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, but it is also the most unlucky.

Encountering powerful enemies one after another made War Hulk very uncomfortable.

And just when it was about to destroy several cities to vent its anger, with the opening of the door of the mysterious house, the guy who gave it a headache was thrown into this unknown wilderness again.

Betty Ross!

Banner's wife, the Hulk's psychotherapist, is now the Master Skyhammer who holds the Breaker Hammer.

The only reason Betty, a weak woman, became the Master of Skyhammer was to save her husband from losing control. In this growing chaos, her goal was only War Hulk from beginning to end.

kuang

Betty swung the sharp Nur Boundary Breaker hammer on War Hulk's chest. The brute force made Hulk's eyes widen, and he was swung around in the air. Betty hammered the ground.

The whole wilderness shook.

Betty wields the warhammer without any rules at all, a complete layman.

But this damned warhammer is extremely powerful. No matter how rich the fighting experience of the fighting Hulk is, it will still collapse if it is hit once.

On the other hand, Betty Ross, the female doctor who was eroded by the power of fear is now about the same size as Hulk, with extremely tough red skin and red eyes, like another female Hulk who is out of control.

She bears the blow of War Hulk's weapon head-on, and each blow will make her more angry, and then burst out with more terrifying brute force.

She is swinging the hammer with her life, and every blow drives fear into her soul.

Her movements became more and more violent, and if this continued, Betty would soon lose her self-awareness and completely become a puppet manipulated by the big snake.

weak!

A scorching air column spewed out from Betty's closed pit. She roared and swung the war hammer, hitting War Hulk one after another, causing the latter to suffer unspeakably.

Apocalypse helped it combine the strength of Hulk and the wisdom of Banner. This should be a combination of 1+1 greater than 2, but weird problems appeared in actual combat.

Banner's superior intellect gives the War Hulk sharper and deadlier tactical options.

But wisdom is also like a shackle, tightly locked on War Hulk's consciousness, making it impossible to enter the unreserved state of rage of the Hulk.

In other words, War Hulk's lower limit is extremely high, and it has the upper hand in normal battles.

But once facing a strong enemy, the upper limit of War Hulk is limited.

Unable to use anger to keep getting stronger, you can only be trapped by opponents beyond your own strength, and then lose.

Wisdom, it's hard to be of any help at this point.

What about your anger?

Betty the Skyhammer, like the Hulk possessed, crazily slaughtered the War Hulk. The war hammer she slammed down like a torrential rain destroyed the entire terrain of the wilderness, and the huge impact crater continued to expand.

And every time War Hulk wanted to rush out, he would be smashed back unreasonably by Betty with the Boundary Breaker Hammer.

boom

The mechanical war hammer was broken, and the war sword was bent. War Hulk used his fist to meet Savage Betty's war hammer, but the latter flashed past and hit the back of the head with a sharp hammer head.

The severe concussion-like pain caused War Hulk to fall to the ground, but before he could get up, Betty, who was holding the warhammer, kicked him in the waist and kicked him back into the impact hole on the ground.

After losing their weapons, the two of them were simply fighting each other.

You thought you got stronger, but you got weaker!

At the end of the fight, Betty simply threw away the war hammer and just rode on War Hulk.

She raised her heavy fists, and with the power of the fear hammer, punched War Hulk's cheeks one by one. She roared:

Hulk, Banner! Wake me up!

You don't need this damn fusion at all, wake me up!

This scene is like a scene of domestic violence.

The bridge of War Hulk's nose was broken, and blood spurted out from the nostrils and mouth. Under Betty's punches like a demolition machine, its counterattack became weaker and weaker.

Betty is using her fists to redeem her husband, and in the consciousness of War Hulk, the will of Banner and Hulk who were forcibly folded is also resisting.

Under the pressure exerted by both inside and outside, the consciousness of the Apocalypse Knight quickly appeared cracks.

In the shadow of Betty's heavy punch, War Hulk's consciousness became weaker and weaker. At a certain point in time, finally...

boom

With a soft sound, white light shot out from War Hulk's body, and the Hulk who had been beaten to the brink of death suddenly stretched out his bloody hand and grabbed Betty's fist.

Betty was out of breath, and the feeling of being invaded by the power of fear is very bad...

She looked at the Hulk who was riding under her. The latter's face was covered with blood, but the opened eyes had turned back to the blue light that the Hulk should have.

Betty...stop hitting...it hurts.

Hulk was like having a nightmare, he looked at the red-skinned Betty riding on him with blank eyes.

He raised his hand and tried to touch Betty's face, he said naively:

She-Hulk... Betty...

it's beautiful.
