Chapter 172 Return of the Dead
Brooklyn Cemetery.
As night falls, there is a dark area that neon lights cannot reach.
The moonlight tonight is dim, even slightly reddish.
The night wind howled, mountain eagles cried, and the whole cemetery was indescribably eerie.
In a van not far away, a mandrill was driving, with Nakla sitting in the passenger seat, and in the back sat the Scythe Grim Reaper who was flipping through a magic book and mobilizing the death magic in his body.
The sickle in the left hand emitted a strange luster, and there seemed to be magical energy lingering on it, and even more of a demonic aura.
He memorized the contents of the magic book by heart, then closed the book. Looking at the title of the book which seemed to be written in blood on the cover of the beast, the Scythe Grim Reaper showed a strange smile.
"Today is the fourth time the criminal army has been dispatched! No one would have thought that I would become a great death wizard this time! And this time my army members are no longer human, but the dead from hell! Do you have any ideas for dealing with the dead?! Superheroes..."
The Scythe Grim Reaper laughed crazily, and the arm with the scythe began to accumulate energy. Three strange purple, red and black magical energies shot out, colliding and merging with the staff in his hand, and soon formed a ball of blazing energy, like a purple-black energy light that was constantly growing and expanding!
As he kicked the car door open, the purple-black energy light in the staff instantly formed a huge black magic circle, engraved with strange runes, which should be the words of the devil...
This is a particularly perverted magic that can forcibly summon the souls of the dead and merge them with their bodies before death, turning them into a kind of walking corpse...
……
"It seems that things are happening much faster than we thought..."
Peter and Gwen swung back and forth in the city on spider webs, and the city scene was like hell on earth!
I don’t know who cast this evil magic, but Peter has to admit that he can’t use this magic now.
He could indeed summon demons, but he couldn't summon all the dead in a city from hell...
"Oh my god, I thought it was Halloween..."
Gwen stared blankly at the street below, also somewhat frightened.
The scene is really horrible...
There were mummies, various dead animals, some dead superpowers, and villains that he had killed himself. At this moment, they all walked out of the gate of hell that appeared out of thin air...
"The situation isn't looking good...Gwen, tell Uncle George and the others not to go out! Nail the doors and windows, and tell them you're safe with me!"
Peter stood on the bell tower and looked at the crazy scene of zombies on the street gnawing on the corpses of people they saw, and he took a deep breath.
Fortunately, this is not the Marvel Zombie Universe, and the humans who are attacked will not mutate, otherwise it would be too terrifying...
……
Meanwhile, in the S.H.I.E.L.D. dome prison.
This high-altitude prison built specifically for super villains holds all kinds of villains.
For example, the Crimson Mech, the mechanical parasite Murdoch, and the Hydra leader Baron Sitriker...
But this sky prison was actually occupied by the dead...
Even though these agents were well-trained and used hot and cold weapons to attack these zombies, these corpses would stand up again after falling down. Even if they were covered in wounds and broken, they would definitely stand up again...
"Oh my God! Hitting these guys in the head is useless, let's use incendiary bombs!"
An agent took out a Molotov cocktail and threw it at a zombie. When the agent heard the scream of the zombie being burned by the flames, he grinned. It seemed that it worked!
But the next second, his eyes widened, because the walking corpse burned by the flames rushed towards him and hugged him. Just like that, two howls came out from the flames, one was hoarse, and the other was eerie and terrifying...
When the flames burned out, the two bodies were already bent beyond recognition... But then one of the bodies burst into flames, like a fireman returning from hell...
These corpses that were resurrected by strange magic would be affected by other external objects and undergo certain mutations!!!
In this way, all the criminals in the prison were released, and all the agents guarding the prison were killed...
Inside S.H.I.E.L.D., Deputy Director Nick Fury looked at the last message sent back from the Dome Prison. His face, which was already quite dark, turned even darker...
What happened today was too unbelievable. Not only did the dead come back to life, but they also wreaked havoc in the city. They even went up to the dome prison, killed the agents and released the criminals...
Do these executed guys have memories of their previous lives? !
If this is the case, wouldn't these unkillable guys become the undead? !
Thinking of this, he immediately made a video call to Carter...
On the other side, the Defenders were in chaos. It was obvious that the security measures here were thousands or even hundreds of times stronger than those of S.H.I.E.L.D., but things outside were too serious. Only a dozen mutants were left to guard the base, and the rest were all sent out to resolve the current crisis.
Among these mutants are Sharptooth, Wonder Woman, Wind Girl, Raiden and so on, all of whom are a group of relatively excellent seeds.
"Stephen, is there any solution?!"
At this moment, the American captain was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. He had already fought a wave of enemies outside, but the creature kept killing more and more. His clothes were now stained with blood, and the shield in his hand also showed signs of being melted by fire, because he had unconsciously used his fire power during the battle just now...
This fire attribute ability seems to be more effective than ordinary fire. It can completely burn these resurrected zombies, instead of just burning them into charcoal like ordinary fire...
"I sense the presence of a necromancer. Someone has used dark magic to resurrect the dead. He seems to have become a servant of gods and ghosts, and has made a deal with the demons of hell..."
"Aktos..."
"For now, if we want to change the current situation, we can only capture the necromancer, and then I will cast a reversal spell... but this may not succeed..."
Doctor Strange said with a bitter look on his face.
If that guy hadn't become a slave of the gods and ghosts, reversing the spell might be easier, but with this buff, the spell is not easy to break...
"But, have you found the Spider Twins?! They both have strange magical energies in their bodies, maybe they can help us..."
After saying that, Doctor Strange looked at Tony, who was staring at the screen and watching the current situation outside. Tony seemed to feel that someone was watching him, and then he came back to his senses.
"I left my phone number, I think they'll contact me..."
"What do you mean by should?!"
"We don't even know who he is now?! Are you going to treat everyone's life as a joke?!"
Looking at Tony who was somewhat careless and sloppy, Steve Rogers was so angry that he had an urge to beat him to death.
"Shut up you idiot! Just because you don't know doesn't mean I don't know! Spider-Man's name is Peter Parker!"
"Peter Parker?! The high school kid who studies electromagnetic propulsion systems?!"
The Hulk was a little surprised because the power system used by the entire Defenders is powered by an electromagnetic power system as the main energy source.
"That should be right. That kid became Spider-Man for some reason. I just found out his name too. You're surprised, aren't you?!"
Tony shrugged and smiled.
"He wasn't supposed to be Spider-Man..."
"Perhaps, he is the key to solving this disaster... Magic Spider-Man... He is also a genius scientist. What changes have taken place in this child..."
