At midnight.
Braxton Island, inside the underground engineering tunnel.
The Batmobile developed by Batman slowly came to a stop directly under the ventilation tower.
Then Long Yi, Harley, Batman Wayne, Flash Barry, and Cyborg Victor jumped off the chariot one after another.
"Afu, where are we now?"
Batman has a habit of asking his butler Afu. Every time he takes action, Afu will stay in the control room and use the satellites launched by the Wayne Group and Gotham City's surveillance network to facilitate him.
"Under the Braxton Island ventilation tower, there is a passage above..."
Before the butler Ah Fu finished speaking, Long Yi waved to Harley and others and said, "I know where the hostages are. Steppenwolf is questioning them. His patience is running out."
"My sword is thirsty!"
Harley, who was wearing a capeless female bat suit that showed off her slender figure, pulled out the super-alloy sword on her back with a clang, her face filled with excitement.
Victor followed decisively.
When it comes to who is the most anxious person present, Victor definitely takes the cake.
After all, his father, Silas, was one of the nine hostages taken away by the demonoid.
"Bruce, we..."
Barry turned to look at Wayne. He was still young and had a deep-rooted affection for Batman, who had been fighting criminals for twenty years. Although Dragon God had a high reputation, he had only been in the industry for a year after all. The people here at Eagle Sauce , I definitely love Batman more than Dragon God.
"Follow me." Wayne gestured.
A group of five people soon arrived at the lair where Steppenwolf kept the hostages.
Barry Cat took a condescending look at the door and saw a group of winged monsters below. His face turned pale with fright and he quickly retreated.
"I'm afraid of bugs, bullets, and annoying tall people. I, I, I'm also afraid of dead people. I shouldn't have come. You are ready for battle. These are all good. I can cheer you on from behind... ..." Barry leaned against the moss-covered wall and said incoherently.
"Barry, you don't need to fight. We will deal with the enemy. You just need to go down and push away those nasty bugs and take people to a safe area."
Wayne did not force Barry. This young man with the speed force was mainly used to save people and provide assistance to everyone.
"I, I can't do it..."
Barry was trembling with fear. He had never fought with anyone since he was a child. After gaining the ability, he only participated in zero-dollar shopping and went to the mall to purchase some daily necessities.
"One, at least save one."
Wayne settled for the next best thing.
Because he clearly knows that the first step is the hardest. As long as Barry takes this step, the rest will be like a duck in water.
"Okay, okay, which one to save?"
"As you wish!"
Seeing that Wayne had finished training the newcomers, Harley rushed out of the bunker, held the handle of the knife in both hands and jumped from a high place. The tiger's blade went straight to Steppenwolf's head.
clang!
Sparks fly.
With nearly a hundred tons of strength, supplemented by the gravity generated when falling, it was impossible to break through the defense. I had to admit that the quality of the equipment of the new Protoss of Apokolips was really high.
At this moment, even an armored car could be split in half by Harley, let alone a person.
However, Steppenwolf's head was saved, but he was knocked to the ground by Harley's blow from the sky.
Almost at the same time, Long Yi, Victor, and Wayne also launched a fierce attack on the demonoid. Barry the Flash mustered up his courage and appeared next to Victor's father in an instant, using the Speed Force to take him away.
The Flash's speed was incredible. As soon as the battle started, the nine hostages had already disappeared.
Long Yi calculated silently, and with his current cultivation level in the Celestial Realm, his speed might be only one-third of Barry's. When converted, it would be about 8 times the speed of sound.
Characters in superhero universes such as Marvel and DC are so unreasonable. Injecting a tube of serum or failing an experiment can give them abilities that traditional monks only dream of.
But also because these superheroes or villains all acquire extraordinary abilities overnight, many of which are beyond their control and thus do things that harm others.
Their state of mind is not worthy of those powerful extraordinary abilities.
Jean in the mutant universe, Banner and Wanda in the Marvel universe are all typical.
"Everyone, be careful."
Scarlet beams of light appeared from the Dragon God's eyes, and he flew in the air and spun like a top.
In the temporary nest selected by Steppenwolf, dozens of demonoids that touched the beam were directly cut into pieces.
Some were cut off at the waist, and the upper and lower bodies were separated. Some had their feet or hands cut across their bodies due to the height of the flight. The scene was extremely bloody for a while.
When young Barry came back from rescuing people and saw this bloody scene, he felt nauseated on the spot and couldn't stop vomiting.
In an instant, Steppenwolf was the only one left in the lair, using his battle ax to resist the heat rays shot from Long Yi's eyes with great difficulty.
"The dragon is indeed a Kryptonian!"
"Strange, why is he not afraid of kryptonite?"
Wayne thought about the scene a year ago when he secretly tested Long Yi with kryptonite and the other party had no response. He was filled with shock. He was obviously from Krypton like Superman, so why did one become weak after being exposed to Krypton, while the other could give birth to dragons? Hu Meng, don’t you see any rejection reaction?
At that time, I thought I had made a mistake in my judgment and thought that the Dragon God was not a Kryptonian.
At this moment, when Superman's signature attack, the heat ray, was launched, Long Yi's identity as a 'Kryptonian remnant' could finally be hidden.
Fortunately, Long Yi, like Clark, was a peace-loving Kryptonian, which made him feel a little relieved.
A Kryptonian without weaknesses is simply a nightmare for all mankind.
"Boom~~"
The sudden explosion woke up the shocked Wayne.
Looking up, the Steppenwolf, who was more than three meters tall, was blown dozens of meters away by Long Yi's heat ray, and his left forearm was melted by the terrifying high temperature of the heat ray.
The armor can block a hundred-ton impact, but it can't block Superman's heat ray.
Just thinking about it sends chills down your spine.
"I hope Long Yi's kindness can continue."
Wayne thought to himself.
Once a Kryptonian who is not afraid of Kryptonite turns black, the consequences will be extremely horrific.
At this stage, Long Yi might still be able to be melted by nuclear weapons. Given time, even the ultimate killing weapon like nuclear weapons might not be able to do anything to him.
This day must not happen.
In other words, he must do everything possible to coax the other person so that the other person will always maintain the kindness in his heart.
Just as he was thinking about it, a sonic blast channel as bright as day fell from the sky, teleporting Steppenwolf who had lost one of his forearms out.
"Did the big guy escape?" Barry was a little unbelievable. The tall Steppenwolf looked particularly intimidating. How could he be injured and run away after being hit by a heat ray?
Intruders should not be afraid of death and kill everyone on sight!
"If I were him, I would have to run away from Superman!"
Wayne patted Barry on the shoulder and said solemnly: "But don't be too happy. This is just a warm-up match. The real war has not yet come. We must be fully prepared. You did a good job just now. All the hostages are safe and sound."< br>
"These are what I should do."
Barry scratched his head guiltily.
He didn't make any mistakes in rescuing people, but when he came back after rescuing people, he actually vomited on the spot, which was really embarrassing.
"Long, don't attack so early next time, I haven't even finished fighting yet!" Harley hit the man's chest with her small fist, her brows full of jealousy.
"Don't worry, I guarantee you'll have a great time next time. I'm afraid that by the end of the fight, you won't even have the strength to lift the knife."
Long Yi knew very well the identity of Steppenwolf, a pawn from Apokolips. This time he was wounded and fled, and he would definitely contact the Dark Lord Darkseid to launch a full-scale invasion.
Because Steppenwolf has been defeated more than once.
With his ability, it is obviously not enough to snatch three mother boxes, master the power of unity, and transform the earth into another Apokolips and a settlement for the new gods.
"I'm looking forward to it."
Harley licked the corners of her lips excitedly.
At this moment, Arthur, the king of the sea, walked out of the tunnel with a steel fork.
He glanced at the broken limbs on the ground and smiled: "It seems I'm late."
"No, you came at the right time." Wayne shook his head and enthusiastically invited: "We need more like-minded people to defend the earth together. The war has just begun..."
"You are right. Steppenwolf has stolen the Mother Box guarded by Atlantis and can summon an army to come to the earth at any time. We must be fully prepared." Arthur said worriedly.
Cyborg Victor heard this and continued: "If it is a full-scale war with aliens, I think we should notify the government and let them send a large army to participate in the battle, instead of just a few of us acting as heroes to save the world."
"Notifying the world will easily cause panic. This is not a good idea. They have an army of demonoids, and we also have supermen. And now there are two supermen!"
Wayne had never thought that he would feel happy and proud to have Superman in his team, but he had to admit that Superman was indeed the patron saint of the earth.
One Clark is worth an army of millions.
Now that there is another dragon god and the demigod Diana from Paradise Island, their chances of winning are still very high.
At least he has the confidence to deal with the alien army.
……
boom!
As the sonic tunnel that penetrated the world fell, the Steppenwolf, who had lost one of his forearms, rolled to the ground in an extremely embarrassed state.
Fortunately, the demon-like army he brought was still searching for the Mother Boxes all over the world, so there was no one in the nuclear power plant's chimney, so he didn't make much of a fool of himself.
After getting up and dusting off the dust, Steppenwolf walked to the mother box, activated the mother box, and then inserted the severed arm into the small square where the chrysalises were...
"Ah~~"
The vital energy poured into the body, causing Steppenwolf to let out a heart-rending wail.
After a burst of severe pain.
Granulation sprouts sprouted from the broken parts of the arm, and limbs began to regenerate at a speed visible to the naked eye. The surging energy emitted by the mother box even repaired Steppenwolf's armor.
No wonder Victor’s father thought about using the vitality contained in the Mother Box to help him resurrect after his accident and when his life was in crisis.
Although there was something wrong with Silas's use, his son's body did not grow back, but he grew a mechanical body, which was a blessing in misfortune.
The perfect combination of flesh and machinery not only gives Victor the ability to navigate the Internet, but also allows him to see forever and live forever like Diana.
Not long after, Steppenwolf pulled out his left hand that was inserted into the mother box, and subconsciously moved his fingers. The flexibility was the same as before the injury, and it felt quite good.
"The water on the earth is very deep. It's time to ask the master to come out."
Steppenwolf has lost twice in a row, so naturally he won't be stubborn anymore and wants to complete the mission alone.
So, through the power of the Mother Box, he transformed a virtual screen and connected it to the communication equipment of Dark Lord Darkseid.
"Master~~"
Steppenwolf knelt down on one knee and said in fear.
"Why is there only one mother box? What have you spent so much time on?"
The Darkseid on the screen is no longer the little baby who invaded the earth for thousands of years. Now Darkseid has a muscular body, a height of 2.67 meters, ancient gray skin, without a trace of hair on it, and his body looks very similar to him. Stone carved art.
Moreover, he has also mastered the Anti-Life Equation, and his strength has more than doubled.
Every word and action must reveal the terrifying majesty from the Dark Lord.
Steppenwolf didn't dare to have any objections in front of him.
"Master, the patron saint of the earth is not dead. He is still alive. The mother box was deceived. It told me that someone hid Superman in order to lure us to the earth."
When Steppenwolf manipulated the Mother Box to repair severed limbs, he received a lot of information, including the disappearance and reappearance of Superman, and the fact that the Mother Box saved by Amazon was taken away by a man named Cheng Long, thus cutting off contact.
In fact, the Mother Box has space legend capabilities. If ordinary space equipment collects the Mother Box, other Mother Boxes can still be contacted.
Cheng Long first threw the mother box into the space ring, and soon noticed the space fluctuations, so he took it out and put it in the storage column.
Then, the mother box became extremely well-behaved and became silent again.
"Superman?"
Darkseid smiled contemptuously and said sarcastically: "If I hadn't walked in a hurry five thousand years ago and lost the coordinates of the earth, the earth would have been my territory long ago. Now that the mother box has sent the coordinates back, no matter what Superman they are, wait for me I will lead an army to Earth and kill as many as it comes.”
"Steppenwolf awaits my king's arrival."
Steppenwolf has an obsessive worship of the Dark Lord, and from the bottom of his heart he does not believe that the guardians of the earth are capable of resisting the invasion of Lord Darkseid.
He came to Earth alone before, just to prove his strength so that the Dark Lord could take a high look.
Needless to say, the result was that it hit a nail, and there were two nails. If the mother box hadn't healed the injury, it would still be there.
The new protoss of Apokolips all have the ability to heal themselves, but they do not have the ability to regenerate severed limbs. They can only restore damaged bodies through devices similar to mother boxes.
Darkseid, who invaded the earth for five thousand years, was injured by an ax from the old god, and his blood spurted out like a fountain. This shows that the gods of Apokolips are not very good at self-healing.
If you change to Wolverine or Deadpool, you can be back to your original state in a few seconds.
End the call.
Steppenwolf jumped up to the top of the chimney and looked at the desolate land nearby, his eyes flashing with a cold light like frost.
"My Lord is coming soon, people on earth, get ready to welcome your new king!"
"Those who have hurt me, I will definitely make your life worse than death!" (End of Chapter)
