The previous Blue Beetle Ted was at best a "Batman" who had changed into a Beetle uniform. His uniform, like Batman, could not cover the whole body and exposed most of his chin. It was also made of special fibers and could be bulletproof.
, dust-proof, fire-proof, acid-proof, and virus-proof, but that’s all, even the tech guys can barely do it.
Heroes like Atom and Iron Man are the most typical tech heroes, and their suits have at least one eye-catching and unique technology.
Ted and Bateman's uniforms just have a special style. Anyone with the skills can get the same or similar materials and create a uniform exactly like theirs.
But now, Blue Beetle's new uniform is like a layer of flowing liquid, much like venom.
The surface of the body emits a dim blue light, and the face is completely covered behind the mask. Two beetle pincers protrude from the back of the neck. Combined with the texture on the surface, it looks like an exploding beetle spirit with a sense of technology.
Although the shape is weird, it gives people a strange aesthetic feeling.
"How cool!" Ted was very excited.
Harley nodded slightly, "Very good, now I finally look like a blue beetle."
The difference between the two Blue Beetles before and after is even greater than the difference between the cave version of the fallen arms tycoon and the Avengers Four Miles nano-suit version of Iron Man.
Ted closed his eyes, "It turns out that 'Kakida' is a spell that activates Blue Beetle, a bit like 'Thunder Shazam', and it is still sending messages to my brain."
After a while, he opened his eyes and said excitedly: "Kakida seems to be a god of technology. He gave me a lot of knowledge about alien weapons and how to use them.
I no longer need to prepare weapons in the future. As long as I have enough knowledge, this armor can automatically create various equipment according to my ideas.
Its limit is the limit of my wisdom, cool!”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand, and the water-film uniform on his arm immediately hardened into a metal texture, quickly shaping an ion cannon as thick as sugar cane like kneading mud.
Then it melted quickly like ice cream in an air fryer and quickly shaped into an electric arc that made a sizzling sound.
"You only talked about alien weapons?" Harley asked.
Ted looked at her strangely. Of course, it wasn't just about the weapons. He also asked him: Why didn't he choose him before? Was it because he didn't match his power? If he was chosen as the host now, would it cause any harm to it?
Bad effect?
In his heart, he always felt that the gods were superior, and their moral character and glory were as high as their strength. He felt a little inferior in his heart, feeling that he was not worthy of the power of the scarab, and that he had wronged him by choosing him as a host.
But Scarab only said one sentence: I didn't choose you before because you didn't have destiny, but now you have it.
"Why?" He was surprised.
"If I don't choose you, I will be eaten by the Witch Harley, so I can only choose you. This is my destiny."
Seeing that he was in a daze and didn't speak, Harley frowned and said, "Has Kajida told you about its origin?"
Ted scratched the back of his head and said: "There is only some basic information. It seems that it is just an alien weapon that assists warriors in fighting and has certain intelligence."
"If it's just an alien technology weapon, why does it contain huge magic power? Why is it mixed up with Shazam the Wizard?"
Ted was stunned and said: "Didn't you say it looks like Doctor Fate's helmet?"
Harley said calmly: "I think it would be better for it to tell you in person. Only when it makes it clear to you will it truly treat you as its host."
Ted closed his eyes again and communicated with the scarab in the center of his spine, and said: "As you said, it looks like Doctor Fate's helmet.
A weapon from an alien planet was obtained by an Earth mage.
The mage infuses all his power and thoughts into the scarab, allowing the weapon to become his body.
But it is also different from Doctor Destiny's helmet. Originally, the Scarab was an intelligent exoskeleton weapon with a very high level of AI.
After being immersed in the magic power of the mage, when it is transformed from technological equipment into a magic prop, its intelligence also changes accordingly."
His expression became weird and embarrassing, "It seems that the spiritual wizard named 'Kakida' has lost his way. At this time, the consciousness of the scarab is the result of the fusion of the two, so it fell into a long dormancy.
That’s why he doesn’t like to communicate with his host.”
Harry looked up at the clock on the wall and said, "It's getting late, and we've almost finished what we need to say. You should go back first.
But you have to remember two things. First, all mages are liars, even spiritual mages.
Don't add too much halo to them, just listen to what they say and don't take it too seriously.
For example, Kakeda said it was out of control.
But the scarab is his exclusive magic weapon. You can find your magician friends, such as Zatanna, and ask about the significance of the exclusive magic weapon to the mage.
Finally, you can continue to investigate the 'Omac' plan, but it is best after you have gained new power."
"I understand Harley, thank you!" Ted said solemnly
Two days later, Harley saw an inconspicuous piece of news on TV: a Blue Beetle fighter jet exploded in the city center, killing 13 onlookers and injuring many more.
Batman has the Batplane, and Blue Beetle has the "Blue Beetle" that looks like a blue beetle.
Batman is used to calling the Batfighter into the sky when doing missions in the city, ready to provide support at any time.
Same goes for blue beetles.
The Batplane doesn't explode for no reason.
If the Bat-Fighter exploded, it was most likely that someone was targeting him, and was staring at him relatively deeply, at least to the Batcave, otherwise there would be no chance of planting a bomb on the Fighter-Fighter.
Blue Beetle is still the same.
"Is 'Omax' really a big fish? Such a big fish was caught by a third-line hero." Looking at the messy streets in the news, Harley was filled with surprise and uncertainty.
It is more difficult to load a bomb on a Blue Beetle than to blow up a Bat.
Because the Blue Beetle has "returned to the true god" at this time, Ted is no longer a "clown" wearing a Beetle uniform. With the Scarab's technological level, he should be able to detect every position of the fighter plane at all times.
After hesitating for a moment, she still didn't call Ted.
Ted had been taken to the watchtower by the heroes of the Justice League at this time, and they seemed to sense that something was wrong.
"Harley, something happened!" A few days later, Zha Kang brought some not-so-good news to Harley, "Snobbery took away the 'Two-Face Baby'."
Two-Face sounds a bit like "Two-Face," but it's not Harvey Dent.
Harvey has already risen to prominence and escaped his original fate.
There are no Two-Face people in Gotham.
This double-faced baby is the forbidden child born to Terry and Ellie. It is a monster with two faces.
In addition to a face growing on the back of his head, his body and limbs are also abnormal. His arms look like wings and claws, and his body is not human, but rather like a dragon.
Even with two faces, the facial features are scattered, a mixture of humans and animals. The front one has a pig's mouth, a human nose, snake eyes, and fish fins and ears. The back face has a bit of the grace of its mother, but the skin has a lot of tiny debris.
scales.
And because it was so ugly, Harry knew that the taboo power on it was extraordinary, but she never thought of keeping it by her side forever.
"Gabriel?" Harley said with a dazed expression: "I haven't heard from him for a long time. Back then, I ranked him before Lucifer and the Three Palace Demons as the person who needed to be wary of the most."
First of all, Gabriel's strength is no weaker than that of the Three House Demons; secondly, Gabriel is too close to her in the human world and in Gotham; finally, she is self-aware, and she only offended him during the "Iron Head" incident.
What a tragedy, otherwise where would the "bloody tears of angels" come from?
Therefore, she has always been wary of revenge from Gabriel.
But several years have passed and he hasn't even farted.
"Doesn't it count as kidnapping? The bastards in the three realms of heaven, earth and hell are all under his control." Harry said.
"But the God of War in Heaven has already awarded it to me in the trial. Gabriel must have known about the 'Judgment of the God of War', but he still snatched the double-faced baby openly. He is slapping you in the face." Zha Kang was so excited.
His hands were waving wildly, his expressions were flying wildly.
However, Harley looked calm and showed no emotion, "How did he steal it?"
"Yesterday evening, I was drinking and watching TV in the living room. Gabriel suddenly came to me and said coldly, 'I want to take away the forbidden child.' Then he went to the utility room next door and took the two-faced child away."
"Where is your concealment circle?"
Zha Kang said sadly: "I was careless, thinking that in Gotham, no one, mainly no demons, would dare to trouble me. My enemies are mainly demons.
Secondly, the snob is a local snake in Gotham, and my information cannot be hidden from him.
Believe me, his connections in the world are no worse than yours."
"Even if he wanted to grab you, you could at least struggle. Why didn't you make a fuss?" Harley said.
"He is not you. No matter how much trouble I make, you will never strike me down with a sword, but he is eager to find an excuse to strike me down." Zha Kang said helplessly.
"Where's Ellie? Why didn't she take the child anonymously? Besides, how do you act like a qualified nanny? Although it is a monster, it is still a child, and you actually left it alone in the utility room."
Zha Kang sighed: "That devil cub doesn't need milk powder or lullabies at all. Even if you throw it in the gutter, it will grow up healthily.
I don’t plan to keep it forever, I’ve been contacting Swamp Monster these days, and it’s just right for monsters to raise monsters.”
Harley sneered: "You are so cold-blooded."
"I'm not its father, and its mother doesn't want to see it. It's very kind of me to do this." Zha Kang shouted.
Harry said: "I said you are cold-blooded, not because of the raising of the two-faced baby, but because you actually plan to give it to Alec.
If you only care a little about your blood daughter, you won't have this idea."
"My daughter?" Zha Kang was startled, first confused, then surprised, "You mean Mei Ya, what happened to her?"
"She was sent to an orphanage by Alec and his wife, and like Shazam and Billy Bassant, she was adopted by a kind-hearted couple."
"How could it be? Why didn't they keep Mei Ya with them?" Zha Kang murmured.
"How to stay? They have been living in the Amazon rainforest. There is no school district housing nearby. Is it possible that they are raising Mo Ya like Tarzan?"
If Germination still has the destiny of a Holy Child, neither the Council of Trees nor the God King of Order will allow her to leave their sight, and most likely will arrange a special training plan for her. Now.
"Which family has Mei Ya been adopted by? Oh, forget it, you don't have to tell me." Zha Kang struggled for a while and said bitterly: "Contact with me will only bring misfortune to her."
"Where did the succubus go?" Harley asked.
"Because she eloped with an angel, because she might change evil into good, and turn from darkness to light, just like what you expected in the trial. Hell is chasing her crazily, and she doesn't know where to hide right now." Zha Kang said.
After a pause, he advised: "How about you go talk to the snob? Or, go to the Voice of Heaven to file a complaint?"
