Chapter 328: The First Clash Between the Justice League and the Darkspawn (2-in-1 Chapter)
"Gotham, Gotham, familiar Gotham."
"The salty, damp evil smell you exude is truly mesmerizing."
Revisiting the old place, Lu Wu couldn't hide his excitement.
By some special means, he managed to get to Gotham City in a short time.
At this time, he was standing on the roof of a building, looking at the bat lights flickering in the distance.
At his feet lay a middle-aged black man in a coma.
This man's name is Silas Stone, the chief scientist at the American Star Laboratory, and the father of Cyblet, Victor Stone.
It is worth mentioning that Silas is one of the most knowledgeable humans on Earth today about mother boxes.
After the Great War 5,000 years ago, each of the three clans took a mother box, and the Amazons and Atlantis chose to take care of the mother box and protect it.
"The Legend of the Fairy Tree"
And the ruler of mankind at that time just found a random place, dug a pit, and buried the mother box in it.
It seems to be a hasty move, but it makes this mother box the most difficult to find.
Because after thousands of years of changes, the human beings who know the specific location of the mother box have long since died, coupled with the change of landform and human migration, the burial site has disappeared into the dust of history.
Until the outbreak of the World War, Allied fighter jets accidentally blew out the mother box while carrying out a bombing mission.
After that, it fell into the hands of the Americans.
Cyborg's father was a scientist working on the mother box for the American government.
However, Lu Wu didn't arrest Silas for the mother box, after all, this thing sounds omnipotent, but it is of no use to him at all, and it is too bad to take it.
His main purpose in arresting people is actually for the Justice League.
Although Cyborg and his father Silas have deep contradictions, for the sake of his father's safety, Cyborg will definitely go to Batman and others for help.
Now Lu Wu just needs to wait for the rabbit.
Of course, it doesn't matter if Cyborg doesn't go to the Justice League, anyway, Lu Wu just wants to fight, and there is no difference between beating one person and a group of people.
In order to plan everything to go well, he also deliberately left clues and a bunch of witnesses when he arrested people, hoping that the Justice League gang could find him soon, he couldn't wait.
Speaking of the unconscious Silas, Lu Wu flapped his wings and flew towards the predetermined battlefield.
On the other side, Gotham City Police Chief, Jameson Gordon, with a pile of materials, stood on the rooftop waiting for the arrival of his old friend.
Behind him, a giant spotlight lit up the sky.
In the overcast sky of Gotham, a bat is printed that has terrified countless criminals.
At that moment, a zigzag bolt of lightning pierced the clouds, followed by a rumbling thunderclap.
A pitch-black stout figure suddenly appeared in front of Director Gordon, and immediately after, a young man in a red blitzkrieg suit flashed to Batman's side at an almost teleportation speed.
Director Gordon has been dealing with Batman for many years and has long been accustomed to this way of playing.
With a calm face, he asked, "How many more of you are like this?" ”
Batman replied in his rough, voice-altered voice, "It's not enough. ”
The director shrugged helplessly and got down to business: "Gotham and Metropolis, eight people have disappeared tonight, most of them are employees of Star Labs. ”
"According to eyewitness accounts, these people were captured by a giant demon with wings."
"Demons!" The Flash is a little unbelievable, the demons have appeared, maybe one day when he goes out, he can see the angel.
Batman is not as startled as young people and immediately understands the key.
"Whether he's a demon or something, he must be here for the Mother Box."
"The third mother box was kept in the Star Lab before, and the person who was caught must have had contact with the mother box, so it was captured."
Director Gordon immediately added: "That is, it is possible that the eight of them are not dead. ”
"Because the demon needs to ask about the whereabouts of the mother box."
Batman nodded slowly, and was about to say something when a voice suddenly came from behind him.
"Now it's nine."
The crowd on the rooftop immediately turned around, and then saw a robot with a fairly intact head and the rest of its body composed entirely of metal.
"I'm Victor Stone." Cyborg walked over to the crowd and continued, "The director of the Star Lab was also robbed tonight. ”
The Flash looked at Batman with a puzzled face: "Who is the director of the Star Laboratory?" ”
"Silas Stone." Batman paused, "His father." ”
The Flash nodded suddenly in realization: "Okay, another scientist has been kidnapped." ”
Steelbone didn't answer him, and instead asked, "What about Diana?" ”
In the Justice League, he also met Wonder Woman, so he asked this question, and he had a good sense of this elegant and beautiful lady.
Batman replied sullenly, "There's something wrong with her hometown, and she needs to go back for a few days." ”
Obviously, the old man was a little unhappy, and when he saw the critical moment, the main team members ran away.
Cyborg didn't say anything more, but asked, "Do you have any clues about those who were kidnapped?" ”
Director Gordon handed the materials in his hand to everyone: "Eight people will be captured in a few hours, and the suspect must have a lair nearby." ”
"I've marked all the sightings in Gotham and Metropolis."
"But I don't see any pattern, the lines on the map don't intersect."
"Just because you don't have it on land doesn't mean you don't have it in the sea." The brains of the steel bones have been modified to become a quantum computer, keeping pace with the internet around the clock.
This gives him a high level of information processing ability.
Therefore, the steel skeleton immediately found out the hidden pattern.
"These sightings all point to one place, Stryker Island, halfway between Gotham and the Metropolitan Channel."
After his reminder, Batman thought, "There is an undersea tunnel under the Metropolis that leads to Stryker Island, which was abandoned in 1929. ”
"There's a good chance the nest is nearby."
The Flash looked at Director Gordon, who was attracted to something, and asked worriedly, "Is he going with us?" ”
"There are so many of us who can't squeeze into your car."
As a result, Batman replied with a deep pocket, "I have bigger guys." ”
But he didn't actually plan to take Director Gordon with him, the director was just an ordinary person with a righteous heart, and he shouldn't have been involved in such a dangerous incident.
So, when Gordon turned around, he was the only one left on the rooftop.
"You just saw..."
Even though he had long been accustomed to Batman's elusiveness, he couldn't help but sigh.
Hopefully, they will return safely this time, because Gordon has just seen an incomparably large black shadow in the darkness in the distance.
......
The Bat Master kept his promise and pulled out a big dick from his countless equipment.
It was a giant batchariot, but with four mechanical legs on its wheels, and its flattened body was oval-shaped, resembling a large crab with a few legs missing.
Eventually, he piloted the crab fortress into the pitch-black undersea tunnel.
The tunnel has been abandoned for many years, but you can still vaguely see the vastness of the project at that time, dozens of meters wide, more than ten meters high, and several wide lanes on both sides of the unpaved railroad tracks, but unfortunately they have fallen into disrepair for a long time, and most of them are dilapidated.
Batman was in no mood to pay attention to these at this time, and from the moment he entered the tunnel, he felt a slight tingling in his skin.
It seems that something terrifying awaits them in the depths of darkness.
"Where are we, Ah Fu."
"Stryker Island." Butler Alfred's voice came from the communication equipment: "You should be at the bottom of the tunnel ventilation tower. ”
"Look to the left, there's a flight of stairs leading to the machine room."
"Thermal imaging shows that there are people there."
"This is it!" Batman was about to take his two friends to the computer room.
At this time, Ah Fu suddenly reminded: "Young master, pay attention to safety, the one inside... Well... Humanoids, huge. ”
Batman didn't understand what "big" meant, but he took it to heart.
"I'll be careful."
"Let's act!"
With that, he and Flash and Cyborg climbed the stairs to the engine room.
Obviously, both Flash and Cyborg quickly arrived at their destination through their own abilities, but in order to take care of the bat master, they could only honestly climb up step by step.
After more than ten minutes of trekking, the three finally arrived at the computer room.
It's close to the ground, so there are a few skylights, but unfortunately because of the age, the glass is full of dirt, and only a small amount of sunlight can shine in.
And in this dimly lit environment, Silas Stone was hung in the air with his head down.
There were no injuries on his body, and his breathing was relatively stable.
Seeing this, Cyborg immediately plans to rush over to save people, but is stopped by the cautious Batman.
"Wait, I haven't seen anyone else yet."
"There's no one else, Mr. Wayne." A heavy voice sounded, echoing in the enclosed computer room.
"It's just me and this poor father."
The words fell, and Lu Wu, who had been waiting for a long time, slowly came out of the shadows.
At this moment, Batman finally understood what Ah Fu meant by saying a lot.
The ceiling of the computer room was seven or eight meters high, but the creature in front of it still had to bend slightly.
The broad and muscular body almost completely filled his vision, and the golden sword.
Batman was absolutely sure that the sword was the culprit for his stinging skin.
The Flash next to him swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "Okay, I guess he's the villain." ”
"I really miss Superman right now."
Cyborg was also a little frightened by the behemoth in front of him, and his red electronic prosthetic eye kept shrinking, as if analyzing what kind of species it was.
Seeing that several of them were discovered, Batman stopped trying to hide.
"Have we met?"
Lu Wu squatted down, held the giant sword, and looked at the black villain in front of him: "The name of Batman is like thunder. ”
Then, he pulled something out of his back and threw it out.
"I'll give you a small gift when we meet for the first time."
"Be careful!" The Flash thought it was some dangerous item, and directly turned on the speed force, and countless lightning bolts lit up around his body.
One of Cyborg's mechanical hands also took the shape of a cannon muzzle, aiming at the Darkborn.
Lu Wu laughed gloomily: "Young people, don't be nervous, it's really just a small gift." ”
Batman, on the other hand, didn't speak for a long time, because he recognized it as Aquaman Arthur Curry's head.
"How's that, do you like it?" Lu Wu suddenly got up and took a step back in fright.
It's really not that they are timid, such a big giant standing in front of them, even moving their fingers is extremely oppressive.
"So, the mother boxes of the Amazon and Atlantis are all in your hands?" Batman doesn't ask Darkspawn why he killed Arthur because that doesn't make sense.
Lu Wu didn't answer, but said, "Don't you think the atmosphere here is suddenly very heavy?" ”
"Why don't I tell you a joke?"
"No, you don't!" Batman coldly refused: "Hand over the mother box!" ”
But Lu Wu still went his own way: "What's the thing, when I came, I had six legs, and only two were left when I went back?" ”
The Flash's expression gradually changed to doubt, and he really began to wonder why.
Since Cyborg is a computer head, it is obvious that there is a problem here.
Batman turned from calm at the beginning to anger, the green tendons on his neck burst out, and his face was extremely hideous: "I'm going to kill you!" ”
"Then you can try." Lu Wu smiled equally fiercely: "Defeat me, and I will tell you the whereabouts of the other two mother boxes"
"By the way, the answer to the question just now is: The Waynes."
With that, he picked up his greatsword and slammed it down.
The machine room isn't tall enough, but it's big enough for the Darkspawn to play as much as he wants without worrying about being disturbed.
The sound of Blade's breathing exploded in his ears, and Batman hurriedly rolled to the side.
Flames erupted from under the feet of the steel skeleton and flew into the air, the muzzle of the cannon in his hand lit up.
The Flash was the fastest one, and as soon as the greatsword was raised, he was already behind the Darkborn.
Lu Wu picked up the greatsword that had sunk into the floor and slashed again, raising his arm to block the steel-boned sonic cannon.
"Victor Stone, I know someone."
"Like you, he gave up his body with unlimited potential in order to survive."
"You even have similar names."
Cyborg didn't speak, just kept firing white noise waves at the Darkspawn, and his flesh wasn't something he gave up voluntarily.
The Flash stood behind the huge Darkspawn and thought about it for a long time, not knowing what to do.
In the end, he simply didn't want to do it, turned on the speed force and rushed forward with his head covered, and it didn't matter where he hit it.
But Lu Wu seemed to have guessed his thoughts, first kicked Batman away, and then laid the giant sword across his path in advance.
Although the Flash changed direction in time to avoid colliding with the weird-looking greatsword, his body lost his balance, and the violent centrifugal force pulled him into the wall next to him.
The speed force is very powerful, but it is not so easy to control.
On the Cyborg side, the sonic cannon hasn't done any damage to the Darkspawn so far, it's exactly like tickling.
Batman is the worst one, and for various reasons, he doesn't often use thermal weapons.
Facing the terrifying Darkspawn with bare hands, the result can be imagined.
The absence of Wonder Woman, a high-end combat force, made the newly established Justice League fall into a bitter battle at the beginning.
