Interlude 246: Temporary Battle Suit

Interlude 246: Temporary Battle Suit

With oxygen as an excellent accelerant, the flames went completely out of control once they started, and all Yuria could do was hold her head and roll around in the flames.

The newly formed skin and flesh were burned to charcoal by the raging fire, then fell off and regenerated.

Qin Wei clutched his chest and stood up shakily.

He gradually realized that this hospital was a sacrificial site prepared for him, and that the tumor hidden beneath the hospital was very likely the same type of sarcoma found in the Tower of Venn.

In this situation, timely evacuation is the wise choice.

But Qin Wei, with his stubborn temper flaring up, was now filled with thoughts of revenge.

"You want to sacrifice me to that demon? Well then, I'll grant your wish!"

Dragging his badly injured body out of the room, he searched around the corridor and wards and found several more oxygen cylinders.

He clearly remembered the image of the tumor in the Tower of Venn writhing and twisting in the flames. Since this thing was afraid of high temperatures, the next task would be simple.

They tore off the leaflets from the hospital bed, tied the gas cylinders together, and, carrying their heavy bags, headed towards the ground floor water and electricity room.

Of course, Yuria, as the final boss, wouldn't die so easily.

The immortal stood before V-Bat once again.

Uh—perhaps "station" isn't the most appropriate word, since he's like a person growing on a tumor right now.

The entire corridor was filled with just one deformed and swollen leg, its purplish-gray skin covered in goosebumps the size of fists.

Looking up along the legs of the person sitting cross-legged, there are five hands of different lengths on the back of the thin, bony body. Some are as thin as stick insects, as if they would break if broken, while others are as round as the arms of a newborn.

What's even more disgusting is its head. The head, which grows out of its thick neck, is showing signs of splitting. Two hairy balls grow from the philtrum, covered with a dense array of pus-oozing eyeballs.

If one had to describe it, Yuria at this moment would be like someone with a dragonfly's head.

He was able to become like this thanks to the Dionysus Factor. When the continuous damage triggered the Dionysus Factor's bug-level repair function, the cancer cells in Yuria's body completely went out of control (as mentioned earlier, Yuria's secret to immortality is cancer).

He has almost lost his ability to think like a human being; all he has left is a deep-seated hatred for V-Bat.

"Kill—kill you—kill!"

Yuria stretched out her longest hand and slapped it at Qin Wei, as if sweeping across a Lego brick, causing the walls and ceiling to crumble under its attack.

Helpless, Qin Wei could only drop the gas cylinder and retreat.

However, after losing its speed and martial arts skills, this body not only gained enhanced strength, but also developed the ability to divide and spread cancer cells.

Seeing that his opponent had dodged the strike, Yuria spread his five fingers, and an arm split off from his palm.

This arm was deformed and ugly, with eight fingers, each with sharp bone spurs protruding outwards, like spears aimed at Qin Wei's eyes.

At this moment, Qin Wei had just rolled to the ground and was unable to regain his balance. He could only watch helplessly as the bone spurs approached.

At the critical moment, a series of whooshing sounds rang out behind them.

Several dark shadows flashed past the corner of my eye and crashed headfirst into a bone spur.

The clanging and clattering sounds were incessant.

Then he felt a strong hand press down on his shoulder, followed by a powerful punch that grazed his cheek and slammed into Yuria's palm.

However, it must be said that Yuria's physique far surpasses that of normal creatures. When he threw a punch, it was the owner of the fist who was forced back first.

The newcomer used the momentum to do a backflip, pulling Qin Wei behind him as well.

Only now was his profile exposed to Qin Wei's view for the first time.

"Why are you here?"

"If I don't come, you'll die."

Isaiah Thomas's exposed lips curled into a cold smile.

"I have to tell you all about Alfrey, but for now, let's clean up this mess first."

Thomas Jr. blocked the extended attack of the bone spikes with his steel claws, and glanced at Qin Wei's tattered Green Arrow uniform.

"Hmph! You're on someone else's turf and you don't even want to wear your own clothes?"

As he spoke, he took a small box, about the size of a palm, from behind his waist and handed it over.

"What is this?"

"First, take off that shabby shirt. Then, stick it to your waist and abdomen, and unlock it with your right thumbprint. You have thirty seconds, don't keep me waiting too long!"

Night Owl's domineering CEO-style remarks sent a chill down Qin Wei's spine; normally, he would have made a few sarcastic remarks.

Considering that the other party had saved him just seconds before, he decided to give the other party a chance to show off properly.

Next, Night Owl took over the battlefield. Unlike Qin Wei, who was exhausted and covered in wounds, this guy had so much fuel in his tank that it was almost overflowing, and his tactical belt was also full of gadgets.

So when Uriah reached out his hand again, the owl threw a liquid nitrogen bomb at its head.

The liquid nitrogen bomb, resembling a Poké Ball, tumbled in the air, exploding into a cloud of white mist the instant the countdown reached zero, freezing Yuria's entire head.

Then, Night Owl launched his grappling hook and rapidly approached Yuria, using the wall as a springboard.

The immortals' counterattack came quickly. As the night owl approached, four deformed hands covering the body opened like spider legs, spitting bone spikes at the enemy.

But don't forget what era we live in.

The various technologies that emerge from the future timeline offer almost no improvement to villains like Yuria who rely on physical strength, but for superheroes with mortal bodies, technological enhancements translate directly into increased power.

The owl, flying through the air, pressed a button on the outside of his thigh. A series of flames erupted from the soles of his feet, blasting a hole in the wall. He used the propulsion to quickly change direction, not only avoiding the bone spikes but also circling around to Yuria's unsuspecting back.

"Immortal, you are far too weak without your human form!"

Night Owl let out his signature maniacal laugh and threw the two remaining liquid nitrogen bombs from his belt at his opponent.

Under the relentless bombardment of the technological cannons, half of Yuria's body was sealed by the cold air, leaving only her deformed giant leg swaying back and forth in the corridor like a python, making a final struggle.

Thomas was right; in human form, Yuria possessed peak martial arts skills that were no less than those of Lei Xiaogu.

However, it is still clumsy and bulky now, and its characteristics of being restrained by low temperature still exist. Although its regeneration speed and physical strength have reached their peak, it can only be forced to take all the attacks.

At best, Uriah can only be considered a third-rate villain.

A single, decisive blow! This is the perfect score that Night Owl can deliver when he's at his peak.

When Qin Wei changed into his brand-new bat suit and was ready to take over the battlefield, he was surprised to find that Thomas had already taken care of his opponent.

"How does the new uniform feel? Lucius has collected your body data. I asked him to print it out in 30 minutes, so it might not fit perfectly."

"Everything else is fine, but it's a bit tight around the crotch. By the way, this garment is so lightweight, is its protective function reliable?" Qin Wei tugged at the highly elastic, thin fabric at his chest.

This combat suit completely abandons the heavy, armor-like design of traditional bat suits. It features a full-face mask, a blood-red bat logo on the chest, and two red lines that taper from the armpits to the ankles. The breathable fabric that tightly wraps around the skin accentuates the wearer's muscles.

Of course, the embarrassment of a bulge in the crotch area is unavoidable.

Although this is just a temporary suit, its protective capabilities are definitely not a problem.

Night Owl tugged at his battle suit, indicating that they were made of the same material.

Of course, Night Owl also added many other components to this bodysuit, such as combat boots that reinforced his leg muscles, a close-fitting belt that could cover his groin, and his signature half-cape-style winged cloak.

Therefore, only one person at the scene will feel embarrassed.

"You can handle this yourself, so why limit me to thirty seconds?" Wei changed the subject.

"Don't you have more important things to do?" Night Owl brushed the ice shards off his clothes and pointed to the oxygen cylinder that Qin Wei had thrown in the corner.
