Marvel: The Imposter Inventor

Chapter 245 Night Demon
"Matt? You're out of trouble?"

With a joyful exclamation, the young Kate immediately put away her longbow and was about to rush forward.

However, just as she passed by Dunshan, he grabbed her arm.

"Hey! Wait a minute!"

"Are you sure this guy was dressed in all black like this before?"

He quickly grabbed Kate's shield, his voice filled with an indescribable solemnity.

He had initially thought this was just a simple raid, but when he faced this man who might be Mark Murdoch, his expression suddenly tensed up.

Although the person in front of me was dressed and looked seven or eight parts similar to Daredevil in the files, the most important thing was that Daredevil, who used to be dressed in a red bodysuit, was now dressed in all black.

Especially its eyes, which flashed red light, made it look like a man-eating beast.

At this moment, the person who resembled Daredevil gave Dunshan the feeling that he was not a street hero who upheld the principles of not killing and the law.

Instead, it was more like something he was somewhat familiar with.
"demon!"

When the word came out of Dunshan's mouth, even Kate, who was being held by him, vaguely sensed that something was wrong.

Faced with the corpses scattered on the ground, the Daredevil in front of her did not accuse her of being too harsh as he had done before.

Instead, he calmly walked straight through the pieces of corpse, his expression unchanged.
No, it's not that nothing has changed!

At that moment, Kate even saw a hint of a smile on his exposed face.

"Matt? What's this?"

Kate, feeling somewhat worried, was about to ask a question.

Who knew that in that very instant...

The black-clad Daredevil in front of them suddenly transformed into a bolt of lightning, charging towards them at lightning speed.

Without a second thought, Dunshan quickly raised his large shield to protect Kate.

Who knows the next moment.

"boom--"

A deafening explosion resounded throughout the entire underground pit.

Dunshan felt an unparalleled force emanating from the giant shield in his hand and spreading throughout his entire body.

Even the amplification from his muscle-enhancing armor couldn't completely withstand this violent force.

In an instant, Dunshan almost dropped the quinque shield from his hand, and he uncontrollably staggered back several steps.

His feet plowed two clear tracks into the solid ground before he could barely stop.

"Click~"

A crisp cracking sound came from the shield.

The opponent's ferocious attack left a clearly visible fist mark directly on his Quinque shield.

'The intelligence reports didn't mention that Daredevil, this street hero, possesses superpowers related to physical enhancement!'

He cursed inwardly, but Dunshan dared not slack off in his actions.

He immediately tapped the ground lightly with his shield again.

A large amount of magma immediately erupted from the shield, forcing the black-clad Daredevil in front of him back.

"Hey! Young lady! Are you sure this is the lawyer Mark you're talking about?!"

Seeing that the person opposite had created distance with several leaps and didn't seem to intend to attack again, Dunshan immediately asked Kate beside him.

However, even Kate herself became somewhat hesitant.

In fact, she hadn't known Daredevil Attorney Ma for very long.

Having arrived in this world by chance, she was found by someone who was also a kind-hearted superhero. Together, they became temporary partners, fighting crime and searching for a way home.

If Daredevil hadn't been suddenly captured by the villainous organization known as the Hand, Kate might still be dealing with petty thieves on the street while slowly getting to know this familiar yet strange world.

However, Kate is not exactly a novice hero.

In her original world, she had experienced quite a few truly significant events.

Looking at the appearance of the black-clad Daredevil opposite her, Kate quickly offered a possible guess.

"This should be Mr. Murdoch, except that he may be possessed by something."

As the two were talking, the black-clad Daredevil opposite them moved again.

At this moment, Daredevil's figure was like a ghost.

In this dimly lit underground space, a slight misstep could cause it to disappear from sight.

Fortunately, having learned from previous experiences, Dunshan was well-prepared mentally this time.

After Cate fired several electric arrows with ropes attached, slightly restricting the opponent's movement, Dunshan once again raised his shield to block the subsequent attacks. Meanwhile, Thresh, through the continuous barrage of quinque Gatling guns, forced Daredevil to remain constantly moving.

The situation remained deadlocked for a moment.

However, looking at the guy in front of him who resembled Daredevil, the degree of his mutation was becoming more and more severe. The pair of small horns on his head, which should have been decorations on the hood, seemed to come alive and gradually bent and lengthened.

Even the force of the attacks that his own shield was receiving was getting stronger and stronger.

Even more ominous purple mist began to emerge from the opponent's body.

Dunshan already knew that if they continued to drag things out like this, they would only be the ones to fail.

Even if Green Bull and Tarantula arrive to provide support, they might not be able to defeat this monster.

However, just as Dunshan was thinking about Green Bull and the other guy, Samira's voice came through the earpiece inside his helmet.

"Captain, the Hand's top brass are not inside the building."

"However, we found some paper documents. It seems they are conducting some kind of demonic sacrifice ritual underground, trying to gain power by sacrificing human souls to a demon called 'Beast'!"

In fact, the documents that Samira and Green Bull found on the top floor of the building also mentioned a series of information such as 'Kunlun', 'Iron Fist', and 'Black Sky'.

However, knowing the current situation, Samira did not say anything unimportant at such a critical juncture.

'It seems I wasn't mistaken earlier; it really is a demon. But isn't this demon's power a bit excessive?'

'Perhaps we should retreat for now!'

He glanced at Daredevil, whose body was now radiating a brilliant purple aura.

At this moment, Dunshan felt nothing but indifference.

Ultimately, their mission this time was simply to seize the dragon bone and capture one or two high-ranking members of the Hand to extract the information the young master wanted.

If Hawkeye, who is somewhat familiar with the young master, were in danger, he might do everything in his power to help.

But whether it's this woman named Kate or Daredevil, they were just unexpected occurrences during this mission.

Whether the two are alive or dead has little to do with their team.

However, just as Dunshan's eyes gradually turned cold, and he was preparing to order a retreat.

The black-clad Daredevil in front of him, perhaps sensing his thoughts, suddenly grinned wildly, revealing an extremely distorted expression.

"Haaah~ Become resources!!"

Then, a deep purple aura erupted from his body, and the ground beneath his feet instantly cracked.

In the blink of an eye, he vanished from the spot, leaving only a blur.

Immediately afterward, Dunshan had no time to react and felt an unparalleled force suddenly come from his side.

Then, a loud 'boom' was heard.

Terrifying shockwaves, carrying purple energy, exploded outwards.

Kate, who was originally being protected by Dunshan, was thrown back several meters by the shockwave.

Dunshan, clad in heavy armor, was blasted away like a cannonball, crashing heavily into the wall of the underground cave.

A large spiderweb-like crack appeared directly on the hard rock wall, and large chunks of broken stone fell to the ground with a crash.

"cough~"

Even with the armor's shock absorption, Dunshan could still feel a surge of blood rising to his throat.

In the distance, seeing his captain being knocked away, Thresh frantically pulled the trigger and charged towards Daredevil.

However, no matter how dense the hail of bullets was, not a single one managed to land on the enemy.

Thresh, on the other hand, was sent flying by a backhand punch before he could even get close.

He watched as Daredevil, his body radiating a purplish-black aura, grinned maliciously as he approached him step by step.

Dunshan's vision was becoming slightly blurry, but he could only hear the incessant beeping alarm from his visor.

'Fuck, this monster can suddenly go berserk?!'

Dunshan struggled to support his body, forcibly pulling himself out of the broken wall, raising his shield again, his eyes fixed on the monster in front of him.

However, at that moment, a voice suddenly cut into the communication channel.

"Hello, hello? Dunshan, can you hear me? The one behind me."

next moment.

Dunshan felt as if a hand was gently placed on his shoulder.

And the sound that should have come from the communication channel seemed to suddenly appear in my ears.

"Leave it to me~"
