American comics: This guy is crazy.

Chapter 363 Demon Invasion, Shaman Concert

It has been more than a week since Allen entered the Spirit Realm.

The exorcist, who miraculously returned alive, went home to recuperate.

This matter has been taken over by the official authorities.

This room is now filled with medical equipment, and medical staff are constantly monitoring Allen and Kevin's vital signs.

Kevin had IV needles inserted in each arm, one bag of saline solution and the other of glucose to maintain his bodily functions.

Going a week without food or water is simply beyond the limits of what most people can endure. Without medical support, Kevin's body might be dying from starvation by now.

Even if the soul successfully escapes from the spirit realm, it still cannot return to its original body.

On the contrary, Allen only needed to have his heart rate checked and did not need any nutritional fluids to maintain his health. He lay on the sofa and slept soundly, and his physical condition was extremely healthy.

Realizing that this person was no ordinary person, they naturally could not be treated from the perspective of an ordinary person.

"They're still not awake?"

Bruce walked in, looking exhausted, his suit stained with a trace of blood.

"Not yet," Ellie sighed.

During this period, Los Angeles was hit by a series of demonic killings, and the intervals between them were becoming more and more frequent, making it clear that an invasion from hell was imminent.

Numerous exorcism groups are busy running around the city, dealing with difficult cases, but ultimately they feel overwhelmed.

The loss of manpower has even increased exponentially.

The authorities mobilized troops to seal off the entire city.

Large numbers of civilians have evacuated Los Angeles, turning the once-prosperous metropolis into a desolate ghost town.

Of course, many demons possessed humans and committed wanton killings.

In particular, regular troops are possessed and use firearms to launch suicide attacks against the army.

At that moment, a golden lightning bolt appeared.

Barry has returned.

He said in a solemn tone, "Something big has happened. The ground in Century Square has collapsed. I think it's the devil launching an invasion."

"Take me with you," Bruce said.

Currently, Bruce and Barry are considered the core players.

Bruce uses his suit to relentlessly hunt down demons, gradually increasing his power and unlocking more abilities.

Barry, relying on the Speed ​​Force, supports various regions and has developed numerous Speed ​​Force skills, enough to deal with ordinary demons.

Then the scene changes.

Before Bruce could even blink, he suddenly found himself in Century Square.

Outside the square, numerous dilapidated armored vehicles and the mangled corpses of soldiers, with blood splattered everywhere, created a scene of utter carnage.

The first troops to arrive were clearly wiped out on the spot.

In the center of the square, a figure hovered in mid-air, while several demons knelt on one knee, as if performing a ritual.

"The Blood Queen!?"

This person's information was included in the latest official internal announcement.

More than two hundred years ago, an evil witch sacrificed herself and was completely transformed into a demon.

Fortunately, the exorcists of the time joined forces to defeat him, then dismembered and sealed him in various parts of the world.

"Demon Hunter".

The Blood Queen looked at Bruce with admiration and said, "I will give you a chance. If you are willing to pledge allegiance to me and wait for the day when I unify the world, I will grant you supreme power, and you may possess me."

"Not interested."

Bruce corrected him, "And also, I'm Batman."

Upon hearing the response, the Blood Queen was slightly taken aback.

Her beauty was unparalleled, and countless men had fallen for her charms. Yet, she was rejected on the spot, as if she had been humiliated.

The real reason the Blood Queen transformed into a demon was to preserve her youthful appearance forever.

"To reject me will cost you your life."

As soon as he finished speaking, the six demons spread their fleshy wings and pounced on Bruce.

"Barry, stop her ritual."

"OK."

Bruce immediately devised a strategy.

Barry instantly entered Speed ​​Force mode, running around the square like a hurricane, so fast that he was completely invisible.

Such a special ability not only made the Blood Queen's expression solemn, but also caused her to pull her blood-red cloak with both hands, which turned into a surging sea of ​​blood to block the golden lightning that Barry swung out with his nunchucks.

On the other side, several iron chains and grappling hooks extended from Bruce's suit belt, and he gripped a butcher knife tightly in his right hand.

Even when outnumbered six to one, they still held their own.

Having hunted down many demons, Bruce finally realized how good Allen had been to him.

This battle suit has the ability to constantly evolve and hunts demons to enhance its physical strength.

Now, the changes brought about by the increase in physical strength are something I can truly feel personally.

Not only does it increase in strength, but it also gains superpowers beyond human limits, such as rapid self-healing, night vision, and quick thinking.

Furthermore, the combat suits have continuously evolved and developed new functions.

To be honest, with a bunch of cursed relics and Allen's maxed-out alchemist skills, the limits of this suit are far from being reached.

"Stop your futile struggles. Today is the deadline for the demon legion's invasion. The entire human world will become a part of hell."

The Blood Queen hid in the sea of ​​blood to buy time, constantly trying to distract the two men with her words.

However, Bruce was focused on dealing with the six high-ranking demons, as he could gain power by killing them all, while Barry kept unleashing lightning.

Although the effect was minimal, it could gradually weaken the Blood Queen's power by destroying the Blood Sea.

However, the ceremony was held at more than one location.

Once, demons sealed away for centuries were all freed and gathered in Los Angeles in an attempt to open a passage between the human world and hell.

Numerous exorcists bravely went to fight the demons, each displaying their unique skills.

Once a passage is opened, a continuous stream of demons can be released.

Victory will belong to hell.

boom!

A flame shot straight into the sky, and billowing black smoke filled the horizon, as if a terrifying fire had broken out.

But the exorcists and the army fighting against the demons knew perfectly well that this was the opening of a gateway to hell.

A special operations team traveling in helicopters is suddenly interfered with by a special force, and one by one the helicopters fall from the sky.

Electronic devices covering the Los Angeles area malfunctioned at the same time.

"What happened?"

The medical equipment has stopped working.

Ellie looked nervously at the medical staff.

She had already been excluded from the core of the authority, and deeply felt the folly and ignorance of those in power. Even though it concerned the life and death of all mankind, they still hadn't forgotten to fight for power and profit.

Unable to rely on the authorities, she placed her hopes on Allen.

Although she felt it was unrealistic, she had no other choice but to go as if it were a matter of saving her life.

Even though it seems very unlikely, there is always hope.

"Is it possible there's a power outage?"

The doctor and nurses looked at each other, unable to offer a reasonable explanation.

"Oh no, without an oxygen supply, the female patient may die from oxygen deprivation."

Indeed, Kevin's physical condition was extremely weak, and without medical equipment, he was no longer able to breathe normally.

A professional nurse retrieved an oxygen delivery device and used a compressed air bag to deliver air, thus ensuring the normal functioning of the organs.

Of course, this was just a delaying tactic.

It only delays the time of death; if Kevin cannot wake up soon, he will surely die of internal organ failure.

Spiritual realm, ghost city.

Allen stood with his hands on his hips on the rooftop of the tallest building, gazing at the panoramic view of the city.

Behind him, all 366 righteous gods returned to their positions.

The spiritual power gained from slaying over a hundred vengeful spirits and tens of thousands of evil ghosts not only filled the temples of the gods but also elevated the righteous gods to a higher level.

The ghost city now consists entirely of non-threatening undead, except for the ghost bride, who is an evil spirit.

"Sister, look."

Allen, holding the ghost bride's hand, pointed proudly at the city and said, "This is all the empire I built for you."

"Give me?"

The ghost bride cast a surprised look at her.

Taking over a ghost town is something I never even dared to dream of.

The number of dead in a city is at least several million. They use these to sustain themselves, and before long they can advance to become vengeful ghosts, and it is only a matter of time before they become evil gods.

He couldn't help but fantasize that if he could advance to the level of a fierce god, he would be a top-tier existence in the underworld, and perhaps even reaching the level of a forbidden being would not be out of the question.

Taboo.

It is a rule that cannot be mentioned or touched.

Perhaps it's just a legend, and may not actually exist.

"If I don't give it to you, am I supposed to take it?"

Allen scoffed, "It's not appropriate for a living person like me to meddle in your underworld affairs."

Not suitable?

When you were slaughtering evil spirits and vengeful ghosts, why didn't you say it was inappropriate?

"Thank you then."

The ghost bride gladly accepted this generous gift, declaring with high spirits, "I will certainly live up to your expectations."

"You used to be just a salted fish, now you're going to be the saltiest one," Allen said admiringly.

"..."

Get out of here.

A guy who can't speak human language.

The gods transformed into divine light and returned to the temple.

Allen pulled Kevin toward the stairwell, inserting the key into the lock.

……

Oh…

The long-lost feeling of breathing caused Kevin to experience a sharp pain in his chest.

She looked at the busy medical staff with a bit of a loss.

"The patient has woken up!"

Seeing Kevin finally wake up, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

If it had been another day later, he might have died from exhaustion.

Kevin's eyes were bloodshot, his vision was a little blurry, his mouth was dry, he was weak and had difficulty even raising his fingers, and his whole body ached.

"Is Allen back?"

Ellie was about to step forward to ask, but the doctor stopped her, saying, "The patient's condition needs to recover. He is not yet fully conscious and needs to eat some liquid food to replenish his strength."

At that moment, a group of soldiers pushed open the door and entered.

The officer in charge reported to Ellie: "Supervisor, orders have been issued from above requiring non-combat personnel to evacuate Los Angeles as soon as possible."

It's likely that the authorities possess special means to contact the military, preventing the troops entering Los Angeles from being leaderless.

Upon hearing the news, Ellie's eyes dimmed.

How could she not guess what the higher-ups were thinking?

The military has become a pawn; if the situation cannot be stopped from deteriorating, the use of nuclear weapons to wipe out a metropolis cannot be ruled out.

However, in the face of evil, nuclear weapons are humanity's only source of confidence.

So much so that it's unclear whether nuclear weapons can kill the devil.

"Yo ho..."

Allen jumped up from the sofa, looking smug, and said, "Looks like it's my turn to save the world again."

Ellie asked excitedly, "You have a way?"

"Don't worry, I have connections."

Allen pointed to the top of his head, looking completely confident.

It actually refers to the temple of the gods above one's head.

Here's your key back.

Allen reminded him, "If anyone accidentally enters the Spirit Realm in the future, just give them my name."

That's right, the name Allen carries a lot of weight in the Spirit Realm. After all, the current overlord of the Spirit Realm is the Ghost Bride, so they have to give him some face.

Of course, they might turn their backs on you.

With his guitar slung over his shoulder and his hospital gown straightened, Allen strode out of the house with cheerful steps.

The first thing I saw was a hellish aura, like dark clouds, enveloping the city.

Numerous ferocious demons with wings on their backs hovered in mid-air.

The occasional sound of artillery fire indicated that the army was clashing with the demon legion.

However, judging from the formation, the situation is not optimistic.

Using the portal, Allen traversed the rooftop, searching for Bruce and Barry.

Not long after, they discovered the two men locked in a fierce battle.

Bruce is surrounded by demons, while Barry uses the Speed ​​Force to cover him.

After more than an hour of fighting, Bruce couldn't remember how many demons he had killed.

Once a demon is slain, the chain around the waist will automatically pierce through the corpse, absorbing its ultimate value to power the armor's growth.

At this moment, the wrist blade glowed with bloody light, black mist enveloped the skin, and blood-red vein-like patterns covered the surface of the battle suit.

what…

Suddenly, Bruce watched as the demon, slashed by his wrist blade, spontaneously combusted and turned to ashes.

"I've unlocked a new ability?"

The next moment, he got the answer.

Allen deactivated his invisibility and replied, "Your suit doesn't have any holy attribute effects."

How could a pile of ill-fated relics possibly create the attribute of the Light element?

"Lust, Barry, stop playing around, let's go."

Raise your hand and wave.

Allen controlled the portal and took the two away, then followed closely behind to escape the battlefield.

The three gathered on the rooftop.

Looking out at the endless stream of black mist billowing through the hellish passages, I suddenly felt a little powerless.

Bruce and Barry were fighting on the ground and were not clear about the situation, so they naturally fought hard.

At this moment, with the situation clearly visible, it's difficult to muster even a shred of resistance.

Bruce was mentally exhausted and became numb during the fight.

Barry, who was constantly in a state of super speed, was already starving.

"Don't panic, let me show you the charm of music."

With the guitar placed in front of him, Allen's fingers created afterimages.

Then a disturbing noise echoed.

"Midora mido, shidora mire..."

This music, this singing, not only made the devil want to kill him, but Bruce and Barry also clenched their fists, wanting to betray their master and ancestors.

"Tuning complete."

Allen pressed down on the vibrating strings and said solemnly, "The Music Shaman's first concert is about to begin."

Snapped!

He raised his hand and snapped his fingers.

One after another, flags materialized from nothingness, spreading across the rooftop and fluttering in the still air.

Totem Banner.

Each face represents a righteous god and features light and shadow effects.

Therefore, the demons noticed the rooftop immediately and surged towards it like a tide.

The seventy-two commanders who led the demon legion stood in mid-air, watching intently, trying to figure out what tricks the other side was up to.

The Hell Passage is complete, and the demon legion is heading to Earth in massive numbers.

With victory already secured, the Demon Commander had the leisure to watch the show.

Bruce and Barry, standing to the side, had cold sweat beading on their foreheads, clearly sensing the terrifying aura emanating from the Demon Commander.
