Chapter 327: Water Wow and Lightning (2-in-1 Chapter)
"You and The Little Mermaid are a natural match, Arthur!"
The Darkspawn's massive body was sucked into the air by an even larger waterspout, spinning and making a fluctuating sound.
"She wants to die of thirst for me, and you are going to use water to support me?"
When he said this, Lu Wu's stomach had already been filled with a lot of seawater, and his lower abdomen was slightly bulging.
The young Aquaman ignored his words and continued to wield his trident, stirring up the storm.
"Are you mute, Arthur?" Lu Wu didn't have the slightest sense of being at a disadvantage, and was still chattering: "Then why don't you speak?" β
"Have you ever thought about how to kill me?"
"With these soft seawaters, or with a pitchfork in your hand?"
"Don't stare at me, Arthur."
"Even if you dye it gold, it doesn't change the fact that it's a fork."
"I'm worried about whether you can use it to rule a country well."
"I guess not, because the fork can only be used to rule the haystack."
"Hahaha..."
The Darkspawn was so amused by his little joke that Arthur finally couldn't help but roar, "Shut up! β
"Okay, I've had enough." Lu Wu's expression became gloomy: "It's time to send you on your way, big boy." β
As soon as the words fell, the Darkspawn, who had been pushed around, stabilized his body, and the flesh wings that had been retracted suddenly opened.
The towering body swelled again, his eyes glowed red, and a murderous aura like substance spread to all around.
"Prepare for destruction, Arthur!!"
The Darkspawn roared hysterically, flapping his wings and bursting out of the cage made of seawater.
"Whoever dares to imprison me will pay a painful price!"
In an instant, Lu Wu came to Arthur and slashed at his head with the golden giant sword as dazzling as the sun.
The speed was far beyond the limits of what his massive body should be.
Arthur's reaction was not slow, and he immediately bent down to dodge, then bullied up, closing the distance between the two, and taking advantage of his small and agile strength, he raised his trident and stabbed it into the armpit of the Darkspawn.
It's just that this halberd was a little off, it didn't hit the vital point, and the strength was not strong enough, so it just cut the epidermis and failed to stab the fatal heart.
Lu Wu, who was in pain, reached out and tried to grab Arthur, but he rolled on the ground smartly, then quickly got up and took a few steps back.
Lu Wu turned around slowly, a hideous smile on his face.
"You can't hurt me in the ocean, can you kill me on land?"
Then, without saying a word, he rushed towards the young Aquaman, picked up his heavy greatsword and slashed at it.
Arthur hurriedly raised his halberd to parry, and the two divine weapons collided, bursting out countless sparks.
Lu Wu used the weight of his whole body to press forward.
The young Sea King struggled to support, and his legs gradually bent.
Suddenly, Lu Wu put away his sword and slashed again, and Arthur was beaten and stumbled for a while, and his body was unbalanced and almost fell.
Seeing this, Lu Wu took advantage of the victory and chased after him, throwing a punch and smashing Arthur in the face, while the giant sword slashed down and slashed him in the thigh.
The young Aquaman fell on the sharp reef and rolled several times in a row.
He shook his head and took a sip, blood dripping from between his teeth.
"Arthur Curry, you should die." Lu Wu walked slowly towards him: "This is your pardon. β
Arthur stood up in pain and rushed towards the Darkspawn, but the injury on his leg severely affected his movements.
Lu Wu didn't dodge, but slashed at him repeatedly.
The young Aquaman blocked the first blow, but the second and third shocks made his hands unconscious, and he could barely hold the trident.
"The First Minister of the Ming Dynasty"
The force of the slash brought him to his knees, and both tiger mouths were shattered, oozing blood.
And all this blood eventually flowed up and was sucked into the wide greatsword.
Then, Lu Wu plunged his brighter greatsword into the reef, took Arthur's trident, which Arthur was no longer able to control, and bent it to 90 degrees with both hands, and then threw it into the sea.
"I can kill the sea, and you're just a piece of water."
With that, he drew his giant sword and slashed down.
A dazzling arc of light flashed, and the body of Aquaman Arthur Curry separated, and the head fell to the ground.
The sea in the distance roared, and the white waves washed over the reef, carrying away the bright red blood.
Lu Wu had already carried Arthur's head and flew into the sky at this time, with the fiery morning sun behind him.
Target for the next stop: Gotham!
......
Batman Bruce Wayne is still unclear that the Justice League has lost an important member before it was formed.
At this time, he was working hard to recruit another member.
Barry Allen, a righteous young man who was struck by lightning in an accident where a particle accelerator exploded, gains the superpower of extreme speed.
He named it "Speed Force".
After a blessing in disguise, Barry decides to use this power to protect the city where he lives: Canterlot.
After several years of unremitting efforts to crack down on crimes and protect the safety of citizens, the name of the Flash has spread to every corner of Canterlot.
Even Bruce, who was far away in Gotham, had heard about it, and after much investigation, he decided to pull this kind young man into the team.
So, he left Gotham and came to Canterlot.
And with the help of powerful intelligence capabilities, he found Barry's hiding nest.
Not all superheroes are as flamboyant as Iron Man and are willing to make their identities public.
More heroes choose to remain incognito, in case it affects their normal lives.
Barry is one such person, because in addition to being a superhero, he is also the son of his father.
When he was 11 years old, his mother died in a horrific accident, and his father was mistaken for a murderer and imprisoned.
Over the years, Barry has been self-studying law, pursuing a degree in criminal justice, hoping that one day he will be able to overturn his father's case and get him out of prison.
Today, Barry went to visit his father in prison, and the two parted happily.
The father does not want to see his son ruin what should be a good life because of himself, but the son firmly believes that he is right.
Even though Barry wasn't in a good mood as he walked out of prison, he never thought about giving up.
Then he returned to his nest dejected.
It was an abandoned warehouse located next to the train station, which Barry had converted into a base and intelligence center.
Open the door of the warehouse, walk past the graffiti left on the wall by the previous owners, put the safety tube into the electrical box, close the electric switch, and electrify the warehouse.
The dilapidated electrical box flickered with sparks and choked green smoke.
But fortunately, it's not bad.
One by one, a dozen screens hung in the air, which Barry used to monitor the movements of criminals.
Bright lights banish the darkness and bring light to the warehouse.
Then Barry discovers that there is an uninvited guest in the house.
He immediately stopped, looking warily at the handsome man full of luxury.
"Barry Allen, I'm Bruce Wayne." The man sitting on the sofa calmly said the famous name.
There is no awareness of being in the intruder.
It's a pity that the kindness unleashed by the billionaire did not make the poor boy accept.
"You think saying hello will explain why a stranger broke into my house, hid in the shadows, and sat in my second favorite chair?"
Bruce got up and walked over to Barry as he pulled a piece of paper out of his pocket.
Above is a screenshot of the surveillance footage of a convenience store in Canterlot.
Barry, who still had long hair at the time, had just used his speed to take out a bandit who was trying to rob a convenience store, only to be captured by the camera with precision.
Barry, of course, remembered what he had done, so he snatched the piece of paper and tried to fool him around.
"This man looks exactly like me."
"Butβdefinitely not me."
"It's a... Well... It's hard to say, it's okay to be a hippie, with a disheveled hair, but he looks quite handsome. β
"But he drinks milk, I don't drink it."
With a playful look on his face, Bruce paced around the warehouse, finally setting his sights on the Flash suit not far away.
The homemade red suit was scarred, and the lightning bolt logo on the chest was a little faded.
mercilessly exposes the embarrassment of young people.
But it was placed in the most prominent position in the warehouse, and it was clear that its owner was very proud of it.
Bruce's expression began to change to seriousness, and he turned to look at the young man.
"I know you have superpowers, but I don't know what they are."
Barry also tried to hide his identity, trying to pretend that he didn't understand anything.
"My special skills?"
"Including viola, web design, being able to communicate fluently in sign language, and being able to speak gorilla language."
's clumsy acting skills made actor Bruce feel a little uncomfortable, and directly interrupted him: "Silicon-based rock sand fabric, wear-resistant and high-temperature resistant. β
This is the material used in the Flash suit.
What Bruce means when he says this is, stop pretending, I know everything.
But Barry still didn't want to give up and continued to resist: "That's right, I'm a competitive figure skater. β
Bruce went on to debunk his lie: "This is the flame retardant material that the Space Shuttle needs when it returns to the atmosphere." β
"I'm playing... Super competitive figure skating competition. β
It seems that even Barry himself thinks this explanation is really far-fetched, and quickly adds: "This big brother, no matter who you are, no matter who you are looking for..."
"It's definitely not going to be me."
Bruce finally couldn't take it anymore and turned around and threw a batrang straight at Barry.
Barry's brow furrowed suddenly, and he immediately activated the speed force.
Time almost froze, blue lightning lit up around him, and Bruce's movements became unusually slow in his eyes, as if he had drunk a potion of sluggishness.
Barry leaned over, ready to dodge the metal projectile.
But just as the dart spun and flew past him, he saw the bat, which was more famous than a billionaire.
Barry instantly understood the man's identity.
The Guardian of Gotham City, the Knight of Light hidden in the darkness: Batman.
He reached out and grabbed the batrang that was about to fly away, disarming the speed force.
"You're Batman?"
And Bruce also figured out the abilities of the young man in front of him through a small temptation.
"So... Are you fast? β
Even in the face of his long-time idol, Barry maintains his pride.
"You seem to be a little too general."
"It's not just fast..."
As a result, Bruce didn't want to entangle with him any longer, and said straight to the point: "I'm building a team, and I need people with special abilities to join." β
"I believe the enemy is coming..."
"Needless to say, I'm joining!" Barry didn't think about it at all, excitement written all over his face.
"Really?" Bruce hesitated: "It's that simple? β
"Yes!"
Barry organized the language for a long time and finally said, "I need the same kind." β
Bruce was very relieved, and couldn't help but smile, he knew that it was so simple, why did he bother so much just now.
At this time, Barry suddenly raised the batrang in his hand and asked cautiously, "Can you give me this?" β
"Please."
A few minutes ago, the young man was lying with an unchanged face, but now he is actually a little nervous.
Bruce instantly felt that he had found the right person, and as a big dog, he didn't care about a batrang at all.
This thing, he usually plays around.
"Yes, I have it here if I want."
Barry quickly put the dart in his pocket: "No, one is enough, I'll keep it well." β
After a few more conversations, Bruce took him to his luxury limited-edition sports car.
Barry stuffed a chunk of pizza into his mouth as he explained to Bruce the origin and principle of the Speed Force.
Since each time you turn on the ability, you will consume a lot of calories, so you have to eat constantly.
Once in the car, Barry looked at the car's lavish interior and a bunch of unobtrusive buttons, and asked a question he'd always wanted to know.
"What's your superpower?"
"Money."
Bruce started the car, stepped on the gas, and drove in the direction of the airport in a vehicle that young people had struggled to afford for hundreds of years.
Between the roar of the engine, it seemed that even the pitch-black exhaust was tainted with the smell of money.
In the evening of the same day, Master Wayne's private plane arrived in his loyal Gotham,
Bruce and Barry, as well as their own sports car worth tens of millions, got off the plane, and Wonder Woman Diana had been waiting here for a long time.
"Where's the steel bones?"
Through previous investigations, the existence of the steel bone was known to the bat master.
So, he and Diana went their separate ways.
But it was clear that Diana's recruitment campaign had failed.
"His name is Victor Stone, and we met and talked."
"He'll need some time."
"So, we're just three of us for now."
"Yes, three." Bruce is also a little helpless now.
Of the candidates he had set at the beginning, only Barry was the smoothest, and even a little too smooth.
And Arthur, the king of the sea, he went to look for it once, and the ending was not too good.
Arthur had just lost his father, who loved him, and completely closed himself off, unwilling to communicate more with Bruce.
As for the steel skeleton, it is unexpected.
Bruce looked at the bat cave lit up in the night sky, "Let's go, let's go back first." β
"Looks like someone is looking for me."
Unexpectedly, Diana refused: "I'm sorry, I can't be with you for the time being." β
"I'm going to go back to Paradise Island first, my mother needs me very much."
