Chapter 12: League of Anti-Heroes
I'm sorry, but you can't kill me. ”
It was still the same sentence, but Askar didn't believe it at all, and now he felt that he could do anything, even if he was the sworn enemy of the Giant of Light, he would not be able to survive in this state.
However, imagination is beautiful, but reality may not unfold the way you imagined.
Just as Aska's fist was about to hit Tianlan, the familiar red cloak appeared in front of him again, blocking his fist with one hand.
Seeing the comer, Askar subconsciously took a step back, obviously shadowed by the previous elbow blow.
But he still asked forcefully: "Why save him?!" You're a hero, why do you want to help the weirdos?! ”
In the face of Ascar's questioning, Superman not only did not answer, but his eyes began to redden.
Aska, who is a fan of Superman, instantly understood what he was doing, and he didn't have time to think about it, so he rolled to the side.
However, his huge body is completely a good target, and even if he wants to dodge, he can't dodge it at all.
A red laser line shot out of Superman's eye and hit Aska's midfield without any accident.
The strong force made Askar lose his balance in an instant, and he rolled on the ground several times in a row before stopping.
Even Askar, who is in a mysterious state, is not Superman's opponent, and in front of Superman's hot sight, he can only be deflated.
Askar, who was lying on the ground, felt the sharp pain in his lower back, and felt a strong unwillingness in his heart.
Why is this happening? Last time, too, this time, why does Superman, who is the embodiment of justice, stand on the side of the weirdos?!
"Askar, now that we are no opponents, let's retreat quickly." Gaia felt the power of Superman, and could only give instructions to retreat.
The current Aska is still too immature, has not fully grown up, and is not a rival to Superman at all.
Continuing to fight will only allow the Dark Clan's conspiracy to succeed, and now we can only retreat first and wait for the opportunity to counterattack.
"Don't!" However, Aska refused Gaia's instructions and said angrily: "If I don't deal with him now, my family will still be attacked, so he must be eliminated here!" ”
With a roar, Askar endured the sharp pain in his lower back, stood up again, bypassed Superman, and fired a laser at Tianlan.
However, all his lasers were blocked by Superman, and he didn't even touch Tianlan's hair.
And Tianlan didn't look at one of Aska's attacks at all, but looked at the time.
"That's all for today, remember Askar, as long as you exist, your family, your friends will be injured or even killed because of you."
After leaving such a sentence, Tianlan disappeared in front of everyone out of thin air.
And Superman, after Tianlan left, after giving a faint glance at Aska, also flew away from here.
"Stop! Tell me, why are you on the side of the weirdos!? ”
Askar reaches out to stop Superman, to ask why, as a hero, he is on the side of the bad guys.
However, Superman waved his hand and flicked his palm, ignoring him and flying away.
His enemies fled right under his nose, and he was powerless.
And the hero he worships stands by the side of his enemy, but he can't ask why.
At this moment, Askar's life fell to the bottom.
If Superman saves Tianlan for the first time, then he can still think on the bright side, thinking that Superman is just mistaken.
But twice in a row, it was Superman who appeared at a critical moment to save Tianlan, how could he think about the good side?!
No matter how you look at it, Superman is in the same league as that guy!
Gaia looked at Ascar who was so lost, and didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only remind: "Time is running out, let's leave quickly." ”
"Now, Gaia, do you think I can stay here?"
Gaia didn't know how to answer this question.
As Tianlan said, if he continues to stay with his family, then the people around him will definitely be implicated by him.
But it is also cruel to let a minor child leave his family.
Here Gaia can't give Ascar a hint and has to leave him alone to make the decision.
And Askar, at this moment, for a moment, wanted to abandon the power he had now and wanted to return to his usual life.
But he couldn't do it, he was afraid of losing his strength, he was afraid of losing everything he was now, he was afraid of losing his dreams.
Eventually, Askar smiled wryly and walked away.
Go to the Hero Association for help, this Askar can't do it.
As the number one hero Superman in Z City, he is standing next to the bad guys, so you can imagine what the entire Hero Association is like.
It is estimated that behind this incident is the Hero Association.
As for why, Askar doesn't know, it's just a guess.
Askar, who had changed back to his original form, staggered back home.
Looking at his mother who went out to greet him, Askar stepped into his mother's arms again.
When the old mother saw such a lost Aska, she immediately became worried, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong son?" Are you being bullied by someone outside? ”
"Uh-huh." Askar shook his head, and after thinking about it for a while, he asked his mother, "Mom, if I become a hero one day, will you be afraid of me?" ”
Hearing this question, the old mother's originally panicked appearance instantly stiffened.
She couldn't answer her son's question because she was an adult and knew a lot more than he did.
Heroes are not as good as they imagined, and although heroes do protect them civilians, they will always turn their blades at them, just like they once did.
If her son becomes a hero, she can't support him.
She couldn't stand her son doing such a dangerous thing, and she couldn't stand her son being feared by the world.
But after much hesitation, the old mother definitely told Ascar something.
"Askar, you've grown up, and it seems that some things shouldn't continue to be hidden from you."
"Huh? What's going on? Askar was a little puzzled, but seeing his mother's serious appearance, he also realized that this was not a simple matter.
The old mother did not rush to answer, but went back to the bedroom and took out a photo album that had been sealed for a long time.
"Do you know why your father hasn't come home until now?"
"Uh...... Didn't you say that he went to the mine to mine new energy? Mom, what are you doing all of a sudden? ”
Aska once asked his father why he never came home, and his mother replied like this.
Although Askar's father never came back, they were still able to video call every day, so Askar didn't pay much attention to it.
However, the old mother shook her head and said, "No, your father is an active hero who serves in City A. ”
"What?!" Askar was so shocked by this shocking secret suddenly revealed by his old mother that his jaw was about to fall to the ground.
His father turned out to be a hero, and he also served in City A, which he had never heard of, and never even thought about it.
"That's right, your father was a hero. The reason why I haven't said it all this time is so that you can grow up with peace of mind. Your dad never came back, also to protect us. ”
"Wait and wait......" Aska felt that his brain couldn't turn a little: "Mom, you said that Dad is a hero, but even so, why don't you come back, you are protecting us?" ”
Askar doesn't understand this, even if it's a hero, it shouldn't be like this.
In this regard, Aska's mother sighed and explained: "Heroes are far from being as easy as you think, and in recent years it has been slightly better, if it was a few years ago, the people who rejected heroes were even crazier than you imagined." Not only the hero, but even the hero's family will be attacked. ”
"Attack? Is it under attack from an evil association? ”
The old mother shook her head and said, "It's okay to talk about the evil association, and it's nothing to have the key protection of heroes." The main thing is those in general, especially those who, under the protection of heroes, have also lost their families. What the Hero Guild can't do to them, they can do to the heroes. The League of Anti-Heroes, which was the most popular anti-hero organization at the time. ”
"League of Anti-Heroes?" The name, Aska had heard of for the first time, and had absolutely no idea what it meant.
But the old mother at that time knew very well what the name meant.
What they are against is not only to protect their heroes, but even their families.
If it's a family of heroes, it's nothing, but only those family members who suddenly awaken their power to become heroes are completely their main targets.
At that time, I don't know how many heroes, as well as the heroes' families, were forced to commit suicide, and even forced to become a weirdo who destroyed the city.
It's better to say that there are very few naturally born weirdos, and the reason why there are so many weirdos now is that they are forced out of heroes by those people.
They just blindly take their anger out on the heroes who won't do anything to them, and the heroic families who don't have any power.
Because of them, I don't know how many heroes and how many people were forced to die by them.
It is indeed painful to lose a family member, but they should not inflict their own pain on the hero who saved them, or even on the hero's family.
And Askar's father was once one of the heroes.
At that time, Aska had not yet been born, and in order to protect them, the Hero Association could only send them to the remote city of Z, where they lived quietly incognito.
Safety is indeed guaranteed, but the price paid is that Askar's father will never return.
"In short, don't think about it so much, but I will never support the dream of being a hero."
If even Aska leaves her, then she can't be sure if she still has the confidence to live.
“…… Well, I see. ”
