Chapter 212: The Darkest Time (Part 1)
Doom Sun's resistance to kryptonite is far greater than that of Superman, and he quickly regains some of his strength. And Lin Xuan felt that it would take him at least three minutes to completely dissipate its energy. Even the power of Doom Day has dropped. But Diana was also starting to get tired. Once again, the stalemate is facing to be broken.
At this time, Superman staggered to his feet. Instead of choosing to help, he ran straight to the spear. Lin Xuan saw his movements, opened his mouth, and finally did not speak.
Superman forcibly resisted that feeling of weakness and raised his spear and rushed towards Doom Day. At this time, Doom Day has completely broken free from the chains of truth. Lin Xuan was also forced to give up his spell. But as soon as Doom Sun turned around, Superman held a kryptonite spear and used his last strength to stab it directly in the chest.
Kryptonite weakened Doom's defenses, and spears pierced its skin. But at the same time, Doom Sun also raised the bone spur in his hand. Diana threw out the chains of mantra and tried to tie up Doom Day again. But a step slower. Bone spurs still pierced Superman's body. Diana rushes forward and grabs Superman's hand, assisting him in piercing Doom Day's body. Lin Xuan also used that magic thread once again to cut off the head of Doom Day.
A huge pillar of energy rose into the sky, and the 'source' hidden in it also spread rapidly. The terrifying energy wave also destroyed Lin Xuan's live broadcast equipment. The energy in the body of the Day of Destruction quickly dissipates through the wound. The last shot left to the world is the figure of Doom Day and Superman falling to the ground together.
Despite the myriad of variables in between, the final one has come to this point. Lin Xuan knew that Superman would not die, and knew that he would be able to recover by basking in the sun. But Superman at this time didn't know. He had never suffered such a fatal injury before, and he didn't know he would be able to recover. But he still did it without hesitation.
True heroes are always respected. Lin Xuan rarely admired people, but this time he really admired Superman. Maybe he will complain about Superman's naivety at some point, and his rough use of abilities. Being too pedantic, too many emotional weaknesses, easy to be taken advantage of, and so on. But in the word justice, he is really worthy of everyone.
In the distance, the media helicopter flew back again. Several reporters came running from afar. As long as the first shot can be taken, there will be no suspense in this year's Pulitzer Prize.
Lin Xuan didn't stop them, but instead faced the camera and said what he thought.
"I know a lot of people are watching this. Now one of my comrades-in-arms, a friend, a hero has fallen. I don't know what you think of him. But one thing I must say is that I know that there are many people who know the truth about the desert incident. Now, it's time to tell the truth. Of course, you can choose not to say it, but in that case, I will use my own methods to get justice for him. I'm not the one who fell to the ground, I'm not the kind of hero you want. You won't like my method. ”
Lin Xuan's words reached the ears of billions of people, and at the same time, they also reached the ears of the top echelons of the US government. In the original plot, Louis once found evidence of the desert incident. And the evidence has pointed to the Lex Group. However, it was rejected by senior government officials on the grounds of confidentiality. From that, it can be seen that Lex's various small actions are actually tacitly approved by the government. At least some of the top brass acquiesced.
It's not for the so-called freedom and sensitivity, but for the pleasure of supreme power. They could no longer stand the appearance of an uncontrolled person. However, when Lin Xuan's words reached their ears, many people began to reflect on it. Having taken out a superhuman, but now offending an even more difficult one, doesn't seem to be worth celebrating. Moreover, Lin Xuan's next actions completely shocked the world.
I saw Lin Xuan's figure flickering and disappearing. A moment later, Lin Xuan returned to the field, and in his hand was a young man who was powerless to struggle, it was Lex Luthor.
"Do you know how many people died in the accident just now? You don't know, I guess it could take a week for the officials to tell you a false number. But I'm different, I can feel death. I can tell you right now that 21,437 people died in this accident. And the culprit of all this is none other than the billionaire Lex Luthor. It was he who created the Day of Doom with his own hands. Killed these 21,347 people with his own hands. ”
The whole world was in an uproar at this moment. In fact, all the war casualties in the United States in the past three decades combined, are not as high as this number. Countless Americans are even chanting declarations like 'hang him.'" Even the top brass of the U.S. government are frowning. In any case, Ruther went too far. Of course, they don't care how many people die, they just care that under this kind of public opinion, this government may change dramatically. You know, there's another opposition party eyeing you down there.
"21,347 people died, so do you know why? Why did he create that monster so desperately and create this tragedy? It's your turn, Ruther, to say it all in front of the whole world. ”
"Hehe, because I'm a human being, we all are. Our world doesn't need God. You humans of extraordinary strength are born to be our enemies. You don't need to do anything, as long as you exist, it's a threat, and I'm going to eliminate that threat. ”
Ruther's impassioned speech, if you ignore what he has done before, can be said to be quite incendiary. In fact, even so, there are quite a few people who waver.
"Look, Lex Ruther, who made all this, turned out to be a compassionate hero, should we give him a medal. Of course, I don't think the families of the victims will agree. So let's hear the truth. Diana, help. ”
Diana comprehended, her right hand shook, and a golden chain wrapped around Ruther's body.
"You probably don't know what this is? But I think Ms. Diana can explain that to us. ”
"This is the mantra chain, made of the gold belt of the god of fire, Gaia, the god of fire. The lasso was given by Hestia, the goddess of the hearth, and was shot down from the Olympian mountain by Artemis, the goddess of the hunt. This is a gift from the Greek gods. The chains are unbreakable, and those who are bound by it will tell the truth when answering any question, so it is called the lasso of truth. ”
Most people don't know the series of gods in Diana's mouth, but they understand the meaning of the last sentence. All those who are trapped will tell the truth. Perhaps it was the previous big war that gave people confidence. This time, no one doubted the veracity of what Diana said. The sky was just before dawn. The stars are hidden, and it is the darkest time.
