Isekai into Marvel/DC

Chapter 48 MC(main character) fights MCs(mind controllers)

Checking the cost to fix any with biomatter control and… Yep, insanely expensive to fix to the point it would be impossible until it reached the second rank at minimum. The cost to send him into a coma was there as well or start to slow or even reverse the effects. That was much cheaper but still out of my budget especially for a nobody like him.

A mental jolt to shock him out of mind control was possible but it also told me other ways to break someone out of it. He was already unconscious but surprisingly he was affected by a stronger compulsion that wouldn’t break from just that. I warned them both. “To break the mind control on him I’m going to need to strangle him to death then resuscitate him. I hope neither of you have a problem with that as I want to find out who is behind this sooner-.”

I lifted him up and put him in a headlock. I didn’t squeeze too hard as I had superhuman strength and snapping his neck would have been a step too far. After holding his neck for long enough I felt life leave him. As if understanding that I had no plans of leaving him like that I didn’t gain any skills or powers from him.

I didn’t feel like performing CPR on him so I cast. “Etaticsuser.” He took in a deep gasping breath as he regained consciousness. I smiled as I looked down at him. I completely forgot I was wearing a plague doctor outfit as I said. “Welcome back to the land of the living. Got a quick question for you. You know who mind controlled you?”

He looked confused at first then his expression changed to fear, then to anger. He gritted his teeth as he spoke. “Damn 100 fucker. Go-” I picked him up as I heard the sound of a gun being fired and placed him in the path. The next moment I’m engulfed in an explosion as the grenade launcher round slammed into him.

His body absorbed most of the blast but there was still more than enough to fill me with shrapnel and launch me ten feet back. I feel the siphon kick in and I absorb his lackluster hypnosis power but the knowledge on psychology I get from him is extremely helpful. My freshly healed hand is fairly mangled as I check for any serious injuries and find none. “Mother fucker I just healed this arm!”

I looked towards the entryway where the grenade came from just in time to make a telekinetic barrier in front of the launcher as he fired. The gun explodes in his hands as the girls close the distance on the much more armed mind controlled men. Thankfully both girls were aware enough to not panic as they saw someone die in front of them.

Cassandra normally tried to save every person even at the cost to herself but the death came so fast she might only feel bad about it later. Six batarangs fly as batgirl ran towards them and Stephanie dipped to the side to provide magical help. She was almost as powerful as me when it came to magic so the barrier spell she put up could stop bullets as long as she fed it mana.

“Kid gloves are off, I’m afraid crippling injuries are on the menu with that kind of firepower.” I changed out my staff and cane for my two pistols. The grenade launcher guy was turned into hamburger and the mind controlled men continued to pile into the room stepping on the bits, some even slipping.

Both girls were stopped in their tracks for a moment at the graphic nature of what they were watching but I knew that on the mind controlled people scale it wasn’t that bad. Forcing someone to eat their family then their fingers before making them clumsily stab themselves to death would be the far end of how fucked up some of them could be.

Shots into their weapon carrying arms were what I could do to stop them from shooting but it wasn’t as effective as I thought it would be. Deciding to just try and break their guns I shot at them next. The shots with the pistol weren’t very effective but that giant pistol was. If I happened to miss and shoot their fingers off while knocking the guns from their hands I didn’t mind.

Both were still shell shocked as one of the mind controlled men fired at Stephanie’s shield. It wasn’t a big strain on her but if four or five were firing at once it would drain her fast enough to maybe break the shield. I called out to them. “This is too much! We got to regroup outside and see who’s leading them after getting back up.”

I grabbed Cass and Steph before ducking behind one of the desks in the lobby of this bank. “Port us out, I don't have the mana for it.” Steph looked panicked before asking. “W-where?” “Anywhere else we can portal back.” A half dozen men began to fire at the desk but they were fairly sturdy with a chunk of concrete in the center covered by wood.

A second later a portal opens up and we’re dumped into the alleyway in Paris as we catch our breaths. Both girls were getting calls and I could hear Batman yelling at them out of fear as we just fled the scene. “Are you okay!? What happened!?” I could hear the engine of his vehicle as he drove.

“Mad Hatter tried to rob a bank but he was mind controlled by someone else. We left as the other mind controller showed up and started having his men fire on us.” Steph said with a shaky voice. She was an experienced crime fighter but that wasn’t really a fight. That was more of a warzone than anything she had dealt with.
