In the sky above Gotham, the ubiquitous thick green mist suddenly became restless.
A pair of giant gray wings with a metallic luster pierced the thick fog formed by the purest virus gas. With a flutter, the infected Hawkman fell from the sky.
Fine hairs appeared on all his limbs, and the tips of his hands and feet were lengthened a lot, with anti-joints growing out, and the nails on his fingertips turned into dark, shiny claws.
Perhaps it is because before Hawkman was completely taken over by the virus, he was seriously injured by several infected people who were targeting the evolution of his bird-like structure and bones.
Therefore, after being infected by the virus, under the influence of Hawkman's remaining obsession, he transformed the microstructure of the bones inside his body into a substance similar to N metal.
For the same reason, the distance of his wingspan is three times larger than before.
Otherwise, the original wings would not be able to carry Hawkman's current heavy body.
As its wings folded in, Hawkman swooped down, its limbs spread out, and it was firmly nailed to the outer metal beam of Wayne Tower.
The pyramid-shaped structure at the top of Wayne Tower was supposed to be a hall used by Wayne Enterprises to hold large-scale upper-class gatherings such as charity galas. But now, infected people with different looks, like monsters and monsters, are gathered in it.
Some of them are capital entity shareholders of Gotham in the past, and some are lunatics imprisoned in Arkham Asylum or in prison.
The virus has shaken their sanity, and now they, who were born in high-rise buildings and prisons, no longer have the distinction of social class, but only have all kinds of uglier faces.
Among them, there are even many guys who have achieved great fame in Gotham and caused a lot of trouble to Batman.
Of course, in the past, these names could silence a few cries at night, but now more ferocious and terrifying-looking beings are kneeling around the hall, guarding the only master they surrender to now.
The infected person of Zero Virus, Jason Todd.
Compared with the messy appearance that has been alienated by viruses, Jason's own body has not changed much.
In addition to being taller and burlier, the only thing left is a red skull-shaped hood covering his head.
This was not forged by any craftsman or weapon master with the help of Jason, but after Jason was infected with the virus, the virus extracted a part of Jason's own skeletal elements based on his subconscious, and squeezed out the skin to grow.
The arrival of Hawkman did not attract the attention of the infected. Even Jason himself was still sitting on a high chair in the center of the hall without raising his head.
"Justice League failed, and those little guys named Teen Titans are still hiding and running away."
Seeing that Jason didn't pay attention to him, the sharp eagle beak that had grown a horny sheath under Hawkman's mask began to scream shrilly.
The huge movement shattered the cracked glass on the outer wall of the top-floor building of Wayne Tower. Amidst the sound of glass shards falling gradually, Jason finally responded to Hawkman.
"It doesn't matter, they don't have any noteworthy abilities.

Hawkman's round pupils expanded violently.
"Have you forgotten? The Instructor of Teen Titans! That existence has the same power as Superman!"
Hawkman's limbs began to exert force, and the huge wings on its back spread out again. With just a slight flutter, the strong wind stirred up and the metal structural beams on top of Wayne Tower began to clank.
He could no longer endure Jason's perfunctory attitude and began to press his questions step by step.
"Human consciousness is still affecting you! You have been avoiding it, and you are deliberately delaying our occupation of the entire world!"
Jason raised his head slightly.
"I----"
"I never wanted to take over the world."
The overly strong body made Jason's vocal cords widened and thickened, and the bony red skull mask further modified his voice to become deeper.
"You have always made a mistake, Hawkman. My consciousness is still dominated by myself and Jason Todd. I only agreed that these viruses can use my body to seek infinity and eternity, but I did not agree to destroy this world!"
Hawkman's flapping wings paused for a moment.
Then his mood became even more passionate.
"A despicable human dominates consciousness?! You are the source of everything, you are our common Lord! Why don't you completely erase his consciousness?"
The sharp claws of Hawkman's limbs were hooked into the metal beam, and with a sudden tug, the top of Wayne Tower was lifted open.
With a slight flick, the top cover of Wayne Tower flew out like a boomerang.
Then he flapped his wings and swooped down towards Jason.
"Lord! Let me be your body! Then crush this despicable guy into clay!"
But the next second when Hawkman's sharp claws were about to cover Jason's head, everything in the tower seemed to fall into absolute stillness.
Deep in the eye holes of the red skull hood, a little golden lightning flashed in the dark pupils of Jason.
He tilted his head slightly, avoiding the tip of Hawkman's sharp claw at the front, and then stepped forward lightly, and the figure appeared behind Hawkman without a trace of ripples.
"I'll tell you why."
Jason aimed at the back of Hawkman's head and raised his fist as big as a frying pan.
"Because it can't do it for the time being. Until now, it has been fighting hard to fight with me. It wants to dominate this body and spread the virus to the whole world."
"But unfortunately, I think I can delay it a little longer."
The fist fell.
The whole Wayne Tower seemed to tremble, and Hawkman finally stopped shouting, and instead embedded itself into the floor in an unfolded posture, as if it had turned into a carpet portrait.
Jason retracted his fist, and everything around him returned to normal operation, and he put his hands behind his back and walked back to the central chair step by step to sit down.
The infected people who had always maintained a surrender posture around them seemed to lower their heads.
But only Jason knows that some of these infected people have not truly surrendered to him.
Especially people like Penguin and Bane who were infected.
Their will also did not completely collapse, but after combining with the will of the virus, they derived even stranger,
An insidious and violent personality.
They are not the same people as before, but they are not simply trying to spread their viral consciousness.
It's just that Jason relies on Primordial Virus's dominance over all other viruses to restrict them all here.
Of course, Jason's inner nature has not changed, and he has always maintained a ray of clarity in his heart.
But as the virus transformed him more deeply, Primordial Virus's attack on his subjective consciousness became more and more fierce.
Allowing the infected Justice League to go out to attack Teen Titans was a roundabout compromise made by Jason in a short period of time against the virus.
If he had been so stubborn to the end and violated the virus's instinct to obtain eternity, then the virus would have already launched all its efforts to try to erase Jason.
