The Death Knell

The distance of only a few dozen meters passed in an instant, and the figure of Deathstroke appeared at the corner of the corridor in the next second.

But the expected attack did not come. What he saw was a man wearing blue tights with a huge golden lightning logo on his chest. He was covering the wound on his belly and sitting in the corner, panting.

Seeing the appearance of the death knell, the pale man showed a very reluctant smile:

"I was accidentally bitten, and I'm probably hopeless. They were zombies, right? Is it as contagious as seen in the movie?"

The long golden hair was stuck to his face with cold sweat, like gold threads floating in the water. Black blood was flowing out from the wound on his waist. In fact, he had some guesses just by looking at the color of the blood.

It was a big wound, and a lot of his intestines and liver were bitten off. Whatever it was that attacked him, that thing had a big mouth.

"Little brother, what do you call me?"

Without answering the other party's question directly, Su Ming stood in front of him with a weapon in his hand. This person looked familiar, because this kind of uniform with a huge lightning on the chest should be someone related to Shazam.

"Freddy Freeman, uh, you can also call me Captain Marvel." The man closed his eyes in pain, groaned, gasped for breath, and then said again: "I just want to return to justice. Picking up some clothes in the lobby, I didn’t expect your name? Friend.”

"It turns out it's you, Billy's brother Xiao Jingxun." Su Ming nodded, and sighed regretfully: "I came here from Earth 0 to work, just call me Deathstroke. Speaking of which, your old Deathstroke from Earth 12 has also retired. Yeah, it’s normal for you young people not to know each other.”

Captain Marvel was originally a character from Fawcett Comics. Later, the company was acquired by DC in the acquisition. However, the title Captain Marvel was registered by Marvel first. Since then, the characters purchased by DC can only be called Shazam.

I was very angry just thinking about it, and I couldn't just suffer a dumb loss, so DC came up with a good way, which is to register all other characters related to "Captain Marvel" as intellectual property rights.

For example, the Freddy in front of you was originally a follower of Captain Marvel during Fawcett's comics. If you, Marvel, created your own character and stole the title of Captain Marvel, then there must be nothing you can do about the other characters, right?

Therefore, Freddy was not renamed Little Shazam. After entering the DC Universe family, he was still called Captain Marvel Jr., because in terms of naming, Captain Marvel and Captain Marvel Jr. are two different things. Human, because the word Jr is added, this is also within the scope of the law.

Among Shazam's teammates are similar Marvel Mary (Mary Marvel), Uncle Marvel (Unle Marvel), and Captain Marvel (Lieutenant Marvels) who changed the English words. The small team formed by Shazam and his friends is also called the Marvel Family (Marvel Family). Mystery), even Black Adam was once called Black Marvels (BlakMarvels)

In this way, as long as readers see these names and have doubts, and then learn a little bit about them, they will know the dark history of Marvel's preemptive registration of comic characters.

It is precisely because of such a bad reputation that it really ruined the popularity of the public, and everyone in the industry was yelled at and beaten. After Marvel was punished this time, it has never done anything similar again.

Marvel stole Captain Marvel, but could never win it. It was not until Carol was replaced that the main female boxer gradually started to improve.

"Are you from a parallel world?" The painful man opened his eyes. A glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes, but the light immediately dissipated: "I can't hold on for long, kill me quickly, I don't want to become a monster."

"Hold on, answer me a few questions first." Su Ming asked as he took out the incendiary bomb from his pocket: "First of all, who bit you? How long did it last? Also, do you know how zombies get in? From the Hall of Justice?”

"The person who bit me was 'Little Wildebeest', and he was also my teammate in Titan. Uh! About five minutes." The team leader gritted his teeth, and veins burst out in his temples, which looked very painful: "Besides, I don't It's clear how the infected entered the hall, but certainly not from underground."

Team Scary is also known for his willpower. Freddy from Earth 0 was able to resist the Anti-Life Equation with willpower when he was just a teenager. If it were anyone else, the transformation time would probably be shorter.

"Okay, what are your last words?"

Su Ming held the other party's shoulders. He was even ready for cremation. Unfortunately, conditions did not allow it and the black men carrying the coffin could not be called.

"If you can, tell Billy for me, don't be sad, I will always be proud of him. Move quickly, my vision and thinking are starting to blur." Freddy closed his eyes and gritted his teeth, but at the same time he also said He grunted like a beast, and his body trembled violently.

Deathstroke didn't hesitate, splitting him into two halves with one knife, unplugging the incendiary grenade and burning the body.

"It's so tragic to say that, after all, wasn't it because you believed in your teammates that you were bitten?"

The expressionless Deathstroke stared at the flames for a while, and the corpse quickly curled up and turned into charcoal in the white firelight.

"Hey."

Strangulation means that it read some of the opponent's memories in the previous contact, which may have caused blurred vision and thinking.

But it really didn’t kill people. The virus had indeed entered the person’s brain, but death came a little earlier.

"I understand, this has nothing to do with you." Su Ming put away his weapon and took a few steps back. The smell of burning hair smelled a bit like insoles: "At present, we already know that this virus does not spread through the air, which is good news. And the two infected people have one thing in common.”

"Hey?"

"Well, none of them look like the characters that should be on Earth 12, but more like they are from other parallel worlds, but the black and white Superman has no corresponding memory of this." Su Ming waved to Xiao Dai and the others at the corner of the corridor, At the same time, he communicated silently with the symbiote: "In the eyes of Superman and Da Dai, these people seem to have been living on this earth from the beginning."

Yes, that wildfire seems to have come from Earth 496 in the Infinite Earth period, and this Freddy seems to have come from the even more distant Earth-S. His blue uniform and red cape look so much like Superman, only ancient times. Period is the way to dress up.

"嘤" strangulation means that it understands, it knows what the host is thinking.

"Well, it's probably the effect of the hypertime flow that turned this place into a hodgepodge. Now my information about Earth 12 is no longer accurate. The story has completely changed. We have to adapt accordingly."

Immediately, the God Killer in his hand turned into a large fire tongs, and he grabbed the body that was still squirming in the flames and turned it over, just like turning over the fried fish in a pot.
