The Collection of The End

——Marvel, 2015——

Japan, Aichi Prefecture.

A slightly shabby black car was driving on the highway from Osaka to Nagoya.

"Why don't we stay?" Van Helsing sat in the passenger seat on the left and said in a dissatisfied tone: "Even if the monster cannot be killed temporarily, we cannot let it run free."

"With the characteristics of that guy, every time you try to destroy it, your own abilities will be analyzed. When you are not completely sure of success, attacking rashly will simply postpone the time of final victory." said Murdoch, who was sitting in the back seat.

"Are you so sure you're going to win?" Van Helsing looked at him through the rearview mirror.

"B... Bullseye will always win." Murdoch paused for a moment before saying.

His intuition, which has been walking on the tightrope of danger all year round, told him that if he said "Batman will always win", the result would seem not to be good.

In other words, in "The Laughing Bat" starting from the comic character "Dimension Ascension", my battle with it has already begun, regardless of whether there is contact or not.

At present, our side has a temporary advantage. The enemy is undoubtedly the "Laughing Bat", but the opponent does not know who our side is. It looks like Bullseye and Van Helsing, but is actually Daredevil and Wolverine. Let's go on. There's even a layer.

But this is not a reason that can be said. The more direct reason is...

"We must know what deal the 'Beast' offered, and where the monster came from," Murdoch said: "Among the 'Five Fingers' of the 'Hand', Mrs. Gao of Kyoto and Murakami of Osaka are dead, and Bakuto in Tokyo and Sowanda in Yokohama are too far away, so we can only find Alexandra in Nagoya.”

"Hmph..." Van Helsing sneered: "A bunch of rats, don't dare to get together because they are afraid of being eaten by others?"

"[No~]" the limo driver said: "[I just mentioned to each of them in private that I could help them kill all the others and then break up the union. They consciously chose a branch each. It’s become a base~]”

"..."

"..."

It’s hard to say whether you believe it or not, whether the others have contacted each other or not, whether they are really being prepared for the separation or whether they are taking advantage of the situation. There is no way to tell which level "Daji" is on.

Yes, "Daji", the pink-haired woman in the white uniform.

When the traffic in the outskirts of Osaka was in chaos because the castle tower collapsed and was on fire, Van Helsing, who was eager to leave, was about to grab a car on the side of the road. Before Murdoch could stop him, "Daji" drove up in a semi-old car. Picked them up.

Of course, that was only the situation in Murdoch's field of vision. According to Van Helsing, the driver was a Japanese woman with soft features and gentle temperament, but no special features. Walking on the street, she would be recognized as a housewife and turned around and forgotten. kind of.

According to "Daji", the "current her" name is Tamamo Atuko, a peripheral member of the "Hand", codenamed "Silver Fox".

Murdoch didn't think there was anything wrong with the name and code name. It could even be said that it was very characteristic of this fox woman. But judging from the evil smile she made while introducing herself at the time, and the way Van Helsing was fidgeting in the co-pilot, it should be Someone who doesn't really exist, but is important to "Wolverine".

In nature...it's roughly equivalent to a young woman wearing a black leather coat, cat ears and a cat tail, and then stealing gems in front of her.

In comparison, the old Captain America is... well, it doesn't seem to be much better.

"[The person you are thinking of is the one who was resurrected by Alexandra~]" "Daji" continued: "[You must have a lot to ask her, right?]"

"The Hand has also infiltrated SHIELD? And participated in salvage operations in the Arctic Ocean?" Murdock raised an eyebrow.

"!?" The car swayed from side to side, causing a loud honking and yelling from the car behind.

"[I guarantee with a tail that the sudden gentle change in your expression just now must be because you are thinking about women!]" "Daji" resumed normal driving, and her tone was shocked: "[Why not Erica but Steve!" ]"

"Stop pretending to be able to read minds," Murdoch touched his eye sockets: "There is a saying that 'the eyes are the windows to the soul,' but I have no windows at all."

"..." "Daji" began to be in a daze. Although Fan Helsing maintained a cold expression, his shoulders were shaking from suppressing laughter.

"As for Erica, we have known each other for a long time, but after I became 'Bullseye', she suddenly completely forgot about me and was entangled with a street hero named 'Daredevil'," Murdo Ke continued: "According to what you said, it's not surprising that she once 'resurrected' from the dead. So, who killed her?"

"[No one, or rather, 'The Sky'," "Daji" smacked her lips: "[This guy with a strange name is worshiped by the Hand. The original 'beast' was also given to the Hand." The demon with the power of the Immortal Ninja, the reason why it requires the entire Hand to worship it is to select the most devout believers from time to time to "possess" them and act in reality, except those who have been in contact with the "Dragon Bone" and will not die. Except for the Five Fingers, all possessed persons will die when the possession is released.]"

"The sacrifice in a sense is indeed the devil," Murdock nodded: "I guess there is a problem with Erica."

"[Alexandra can become the leader of the Hand because her subordinates are the most devout and most susceptible to being possessed by the black sky. Other fingers have to think twice before provoking her, and Erica is one of her assassins. , also unknowingly possessed by 'Black Sky',]" "Daji" said: "['Black Sky' possessed the members of the Hand Association and left after satisfying the desire to kill. Everything was as usual, but after An accident occurred when the possession was removed. The consciousness of 'Black Sky' disappeared, and Erica did not die. The two merged into a... well, a new life with Erica's shallow consciousness and the power of 'Black Sky'? She was obsessed with going to New York to find a man named "Daredevil". All the killers of the Hand could not stop her, so she had to let it go. Fortunately, the "herd" quickly sent out a "substitute to receive the devil" and passed the "ceremony table and chairs" The group contacted the Hand Association, and the matter was put on hold until now.]"

"Obviously, the 'black humanoid' born from Murakami's body is far stronger than the first-generation 'beast' that got lost." Murdoch "looked" at Van Helsing and reminded again: "It is not appropriate to do this without sufficient intelligence. Attack rashly."

"In other words, that monster and Erica are both manifestations of the out-of-control power of the 'herd demon', equivalent to its children." Van Helsing touched his sparse stubble, turned to look at Murdoch: "You want Beat your brother-in-law?”
