Chapter 306: Prelude to the Counteroffensive

Another day has passed since the battle in Times Square. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

NOWHERE didn't make any further moves, and I wonder if the "plan" that Dr. Charlotte's android said was in the next phase, and the arrest of the teenage superpowers seemed to have come to a halt for the time being, at least according to the information Nightwing had gathered.

"One more confirmation, you said you knew him?" In the stronghold provided by Nightwing, he asked Eric again and again, "The guy related to NOWHERE?" ”

"Not only do I know, but it's a bit related." Eric scratched his head, "He's a bioid who has inherited all of my father's memories...... And he's a madman. He is supposed to be pursuing to become the ultimate body that can evolve infinitely, and he also mentioned that these current actions are also plans to be carried out for that goal, but I don't know the specific content. ”

"Yes."

Nightwing propped his chin in deep thought, his fingers tapped randomly on the computer keyboard, and two more windows popped up on the screen, showing photos and details of Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch.

Eric leaned closer to the screen: "These two people...... Thank you for finding their information. ”

"The data I called up from the bat computer, Batman has specially set up a file to store the file data of a large number of superpowers on this planet, many of which you may not have heard of." Nightwing said, zooming in on the caption in the window, and said, "Let's see...... Wanda Django Maximov, codenamed Scarlet Witch, is a mutant with the ability Chaos Magic; Petro Maximov, codenamed Quicksilver, is a mutant with super speed. However, it is impossible to see how they came into contact with NOWHERE from the information, and it can only be guessed that they are a group of young superpowers who were first captured by NOWHERE...... Then the two sides joined forces for unknown reasons. ”

"Trouble." Eric frowned.

The twins are also well-known in Marvel Comics, and their help has undoubtedly made it a lot of trouble to deal with Omega.

The question is, what justification do they have for assisting NOWHERE's actions?

At that moment, a discordant knock on the door interrupted his thoughts.

They all looked in the direction of the door, and they were all stunned. From the outside, the entrance to the stronghold must have been disguised as a brick wall, so how could anyone knock on the brick wall?

Nightwing turned to the other two suspiciously, "Did any of you order takeout?" ”

Eric and Revan spread their hands at each other, saying they didn't know.

After staring at each other for a moment, Nightwing got up and walked to the door. Since the other party knocked on the door, they must have seen through the disguise, and in the worst case, they have been exposed, but if there is an enemy outside, there is no reason to knock so politely.

After entering the code to unlock it, the complex door lock parts on the heavy door panel began to rub and collide rapidly, and it only took about half a second to open. To everyone's surprise, behind the door appeared a lightning boy in tattered uniform, and a blue beetle wrapped in blue armor and carrying him on his shoulder.

The moment they appeared, the Lightning Kid, who seemed to be on the verge of a trance, opened up the conversation without stopping: "Well, I know how crazy it sounds, but my good friend and I - his name is Reyes, and my name is Bart...... Oh no, I mean the blue beetle, and the Lightning Kid...... Maybe you won't believe it, but we've just come back from Antarctica (well, he put on his armor and flew me in when I couldn't run), and we're cold and hungry now...... So I wondered if we could go in and stay for a while? ”

Blue beetle: "Actually, what my friend wanted to say was 'help'......"

After a few seconds of stunned effort, Nightwing reacted quickly. Whoever they were, the lightning boy had a pale and cold face, and his skin was even purple-red, and the frostbite seemed to be severe to the eye.

Nightwing helped them into the house, turned around and said loudly, "Bring all the blankets or sheets that are free in the house!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the Lightning Boy had already "swished" into the inner room, and when he returned to several people in the blink of an eye, he was already holding a pile of blankets stacked up to half a person high.

"Here it is," he asked weakly, "can I lie down now?" ”

"I'm not talking about you," Nightwing said impatiently, "Lie down and rest before you fall!" ”

"Oh, no problem."

The lightning boy responded, and he really lay down on the floor with a shake, and the blanket sheet in his arm was sprinkled on the ground with a "bang".

By this time, Eric's attention had been completely focused on the blue beetle. Somewhat surprised, he asked, "Your name is ...... Blue beetle? ”

"NOWHERE GAVE ME THIS CODE NAME, AND I DON'T QUITE UNDERSTAND WHY." The blue beetle scratched its head, "Wait, I'll see if I can take this thing back." ”

As he spoke, he closed his eyes and seemed to try to concentrate for a moment, and the armor that had wrapped around his body finally retracted inch by inch to his back, hidden in his clothes and unable to be seen.

It was also quite surprising to see a blue beetle here. Blue Beetle, a superhero under DC Comics, has all abilities from the parasitic armor "Scarab" on his back. It's one of the most advanced technologies in the universe, and when activated, it can be transformed into exoskeleton armor to protect the host, and the armor can provide countless weapons and equipment, as well as flight and defense capabilities.

However, as it stands, it seems that the boy named Reyes has only been in contact with the "Scarab Beetle" for a short time, and he has not yet been able to get used to and control its ability.

After setting Bart to bed, Nightwing quickly returned to the hall and asked Reyes, "I have a lot of questions for you...... First of all, how did you find this place? ”

"Uh...... Not what we found. Reyes scratched his head, "Actually, to be exact, it found it." ”

"It?" Nightwing raised an eyebrow.

Reyes turned around, took off his shirt, and showed his back to the crowd. A metallic blue beetle was lying on his back, its feet sinking into his skin and becoming part of his nervous system, making it look like it was sleeping.

"What is this?" Nightwing asked.

"I don't know, but it looks like this thing is giving me all these various superpowers. And it's also tracking the IP address where you posted your message online, and through my brain, telling us to come here to find you. ”

"Impossible!" Nightwing was surprised, "I've carefully cleaned up all traces, there's no way there is any way on Earth to track ......"

"It's just on Earth." Eric calmly prompted him, "What if that thing is alien technology?" ”

It is really, and it is, one of the top technological forces in the universe with its own mind.

"There's more to it than that." Eric paused and asked Reyes, "Since you escaped from NOWHERE, you must know where the base is, right?" ”

Reyes nodded earnestly: "Yes, I remember. ”

"Good." Eric smiled.

"What do you want to do?" Nightwing asked.

"Do you need to talk about it?" Eric said, "Of course it's a counterattack." ”
