"I need some... special metal."

The plan to eliminate Barbatos was devised by me, Diablo, and to kill the master of that dark multiverse, we need several special metals that are easy to find in the DC universe.

For example, the Mother Box of Apokolips—the original material of that thing is the metal I need.

Qi Mo explained to Tartarus and the others that the object might contain the metal they needed. Each reboot of DC brings about different changes on a cosmic scale, and who knows what the World Forge looks like now or how to find it.

Just as Tartarus was about to press for more information, a monster suddenly appeared in Gotham, interrupting his train of thought.

The influence of the source is not limited to superhumans and gods; even demons in hell are affected by this power.

Unlike the original plot, in the current DC universe, the princess of Themyscira has lost the Lasso of Truth, and the Demon King of Hell still has his own pawns in the human world.

Instead of launching a direct attack, Neilong seems to be seizing this opportunity to join the battle for the source power. As for Qi Mo himself, he has a general idea of ​​the current situation.

We might be able to temporarily obtain some power from the source, but this power is ultimately limited.

Once this disturbance subsides, the three beings of the same essence—the Source, the Lord, the Guardian, and God—will eventually soothe the turmoil brought about by the calamity.

In DC Comics' current era, God has seriously embarrassed himself in this major event. However, in reality, Qi Mo, through future projections, deduced that God is theoretically not truly threatened by this fluctuation.

As for whether he can leave DC with some of the power he obtained from the source? Who knows if the world will still welcome him after what he did today?

"This is bad. If this continues, the city will suffer heavy losses."

At this moment, Tartarus frowned and prepared to help the city before him without hesitation.

However, without Tartarus's intervention, an iron rod struck the descending demon without hesitation.

"This aura... what's your relationship with that guy from last time?"

Holding the iron rod produced by the Wayne Group, Belial spoke with murderous intent. Upon hearing this, the demon responded without hesitation: "Following the will of the Lord of Hell, I am the vanguard of Hell."

The previous combat device was destroyed in battle, so Belial is now using this weapon as a temporary replacement.

"Lord of Hell? Hmph, no matter what, your end has come after meeting me today."

Without hesitation, Belial grew to enormous size. He had sensed the demonic aura of his neighbor from the next door and was coming to provide support. His voice echoed throughout the city.

Upon seeing its gigantic form, the citizens of the city next to Gotham became excited.

"It's Bruce Wayne! Bruce Wayne from Gotham City has made his move!"

The alien giant, the evil Gotham capitalist, and Einstein's secret patron, Bruce Wayne's reputation on Earth is now rather complicated.

Honkai Impact 3rd Year: Chapter 1233: God, you sculpted man, what have you been protecting?!

The weapon created by Wayne Enterprises based on Belial's power characteristics is not just a simple, strong stick; the energy conduction effect of this temporary weapon is also quite remarkable.

With a wave of his right hand, a dark red arc of light seemed to tear the sky apart, but the demon before him was ultimately just an insignificant vanguard in the vast hell that had appeared on Earth.

The Vanguard, severely injured in the attack, was sent flying backward. Seeing this, Belial did not hesitate to gather energy and unleash the Desium Ray, which shot forth and brought an end to the demon before him.

"Is it not just here?"

Realizing the sheer number of demons within his perception range, Belial spoke with a hint of unease, indicating he was in serious trouble.

"With this density, could it be that every city on Earth has one?"

Belial's expression turned somewhat grim as he recalled the dense, malevolent aura he had sensed earlier.

However, he soon sensed a large number of demons gathering, and the direction of their gathering was the very area he had just arrived in, Gotham.

Gotham City is a place of outstanding people and abundant resources. The city itself, built above the gates of Hell, has an extremely strong attraction for demons.

Meanwhile, above Gotham, a man was frantically calling out to his companions, summoning demons from hell.

Demons who are able to break through the limitations of Hell and reach the real world have generally downgraded themselves and used projection to appear in the world, which means that the power of the projection may not be too strong.

Therefore, under the will of the inner dragon, the demons loyal to him began to devour and merge with each other, and the weaker demons eventually became nourishment for the stronger demons.

As for the final outcome of this devouring game... Nelong determined that only 666 demons were qualified to exist in the real world.

At the top of the tower, the conflicted beings within them were beginning to feel a growing murderous intent towards one person.

The man's origins lie with the Court of Owls, the hidden power behind Gotham.

Demons from Hell come in all shapes and sizes, and the one that descended upon Gotham was a demon that habitually possessed other beings.

However, in the early stages of possession, this powerful but uniquely raced great demon is often susceptible to interference from the host's will.

Monsters from various cities were summoned by this powerful demon, who held a prominent position among the demons gathered by the inner dragon, and countless demons began to assimilate with him.

In the end, an owl-like monster with a cloak of flesh and blood stood atop Gotham's tower.

"God, you sculptor, I've come to kill you!"

Above Gotham, a monster, heavily infected by the will of its possessed host, roared and charged without hesitation toward Belial, whom it had sensed.

The Wayne family heirs have threatened the existence of the Court of Owls.

"You've come at the perfect time."

Sensing the surging fighting spirit rushing towards him, Belial, in a city near Gotham, looked up, his tone somewhat excited.

"What is your name? An enemy worth killing!"

The enormous cloak, forged from flesh and blood, writhed in the air as it looked at the descendant Belial before it and spoke thus.

He chose to kill the being before him not only because he was influenced by the will of that guy from the Court of Owls, but also because he, as a demon, disliked the name God the Sculptor.

"Hmph, I, Bruce Wayne, do not kill nameless nobodies. State your name!"

Belial snorted and asked the question while looking at the demonic amalgamation in front of him, while Batman, who was remotely listening to the situation through the communicator, fell silent.

Is Belial never going to stop? Does he really like being Bruce Wayne that much?

"Name? You are not qualified to know my real name, but in this form... you can call me Owlman, the Owlman who came specifically to kill you, God Sculptor!"

The owl-man stared at Belial and said this, and upon hearing this, Bruce chose to raise his iron bar and point it at the monster aggregate.

"Kill me? Let me test your mettle."

Without hesitation, Belial spoke, and the next moment he rushed toward the owl-man whose face had turned into an owl shape.

The iron rod seemed poised to cleave through space, but faced with Belial's attack, the owl-man's will stirred without hesitation, and magic from hell rendered the iron rod unable to advance an inch.

With his massive maw agape, flames erupted the next moment. Realizing that the demon before him was no match for the mere pawn from before, Belial did not hesitate to retreat from the battlefield and create distance.

The demon before him was actually one of the most powerful demons to have ever appeared in reality. Among all the demons that had descended into the world, Belial had encountered one of the strongest.

A crimson arc of light hurtled towards the owl-man's location, while the monster high above spread its wings and, with its agile maneuverability, evaded Belial's attack before swiftly rushing towards Belial's direction.

"Revere this power from hell!"

A fireball imbued with destructive power was created by the owl-man, and the enormous fireball hurtled directly toward Belial.

Belial dodged the attack without hesitation, but the fireball, which could have injured him if he had been hit, crashed into a nearby resident's house.

Ultraman used his telekinesis to casually pull up another house next to it, and under Belial's control, it quickly flew towards the owl-man in the sky. At this moment, the owl subconsciously dodged to the side.

"Damn it, what kind of third-rate tactics are you using? Can't you see your surroundings?"

How can you call yourself a superhero? What have you even protected?!

Looking at the scene before him, the owl-man's face turned rather grim. How could this superhero not care about the city's property at all?

"Ah I?"

Pointing to himself, Belial was somewhat surprised that these words were not spoken by the original owner of the house, but by the demon before him.

The owl-man was slightly taken aback. Why did he say that? Could it be that the guy from the Court of Owls had such a profound influence on him?

"That's right, it's you. I declare you unqualified as a superhero!"

Having already made the promise, the owl-man had no choice but to bite the bullet and say something.

Belial fell silent upon hearing this, and after a moment spoke up: "I think you can use this topic to torture Lex Luthor in Metropolis next door. That guy can destroy houses even more than I can."

As for protecting residents' property... ha, I lost that stuff tens of thousands of years ago!

Without hesitation, he grabbed another residential building and hurled it towards the owl-like figure in front of him. Belial was clearly not the same kind of person as some other spatial overlord.

Die, you bastard!

Honkai Impact 3rd: Chapter 1234: The Wayne Family, the Evil Capitalists, I'm Here

Still bewildered by the absurdity of his words, the owl-man was caught off guard and struck. Although the injury was minor, the successful attack left him somewhat dizzy.

Looking at Belial before him, the owl-man said in a furious tone, "You evil brat of the Wayne family, I'll send you to hell to keep me company!"

Taking a deep breath, he exhaled another blazing fireball. Because the previous attack had left the owl-man somewhat dazed, this attack deviated considerably.

Meanwhile, Belial recalled the house he had uprooted in a fit of anger, and his feelings were inexplicably complicated. If it were the Ultra Warriors he knew, they probably wouldn't have allowed those buildings to be destroyed so wantonly.

Those guys always overestimate their abilities and pursue perfection recklessly.

Hmph, now let me experience their mindset!

After a moment's thought, Belial, wanting to experience the mindset of his comrades, casually imbued his power into his iron rod and shattered a fireball hurtling towards another building.

Ok?

The owl was slightly taken aback when he saw this. Wasn't this guy a superhero who didn't care about property loss at all? How could he be so protective of the residents' property?

Could it be that Bruce Wayne has repented?

The owl-man's eyes lit up. Conscience didn't exist for him at all, but he was genuinely happy that "Bruce" was protecting the residents' property.

The reason is certainly not because I'm a superhero fan, but because such a compassionate hero is harder to deal with than a villain.

Seeing the consequences of Belial's actions, the owl couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Pfft, Bruce Wayne, what have you been protecting? You haven't protected anything at all!"

The fireball that Belial had just scattered split apart, failing to destroy the building it was meant to hit, and instead blasting several other surrounding buildings into ruins.

"Hmph, what did I protect? I protected the most precious thing."

With a cold snort, Belial said that the most precious thing was naturally his past memories.

When I was protecting that house just now, I could feel my Ultraman spirit pulsating.

Unfortunately, I underestimated the power of that fireball.

After glancing at the iron rod whose tip had already melted somewhat, Belial decided that he would not lose his composure because of a few words from the guy in front of him.

The most precious thing? What is that?

Upon hearing this, the owl-man was slightly taken aback. What nonsense was Bruce talking about? Could he be referring to something like the heart of a hero?

wait

Just then, the owl-man realized something was wrong.

The place Bruce guards... seems familiar from that guy in the Court of Owls' memories.

After closing his eyes and reviewing his memories once more, the owl-man's face darkened.

Damn it, it's a Wayne Enterprises business.

Shameless capitalists, in order to protect their own property, actually diverted the trouble to other surrounding buildings.

The Wayne family, evil capitalists, will be brought to an end by me, the great devil, for you who deserve to be hung from a lamppost sooner or later!

The owl-man was no good either, but after realizing that the superhero in front of him valued Wayne Enterprises' assets immensely, he deliberately feigned anger.

However, deep down, the owl-man felt a sense of joy.

Haha, I found it! I found it myself!

We've found... Bruce Wayne's weakness!

"I will shatter what you're trying to protect! I'll show you the sight of this building being obliterated into nothingness by my flames!"

The owl-man's tone was filled with twisted madness, and Belial froze on the spot upon hearing it.

what?

Is this guy having a mental breakdown? Why is he being so stingy?

This building itself didn't feel anything special, so why is it being destroyed just because it wanted to protect it?

Hmph, but I've always done whatever I wanted!

Do you want to destroy this building?

I, your master, will not let you succeed!

"Today, even if it means death, I will defend the safety of this building!"
