75. This is the union of the Death Bell and the Death Bell, the Death Bell Corps has been formed! -【22/25】
(Monthly pass plus update, Happy Lantern Festival~)
At noon, there was no slanting sun shining, the surrounding sea seemed to be gray and foggy, and from time to time there were strange hissing sounds from under the water, and the soldiers patrolling the boat were already a little panicked.
The silver-gray official research ship sailed into the deep sea in such a depressing atmosphere.
This is enemy-occupied territory!
It is a forbidden area divided by the Atlanteans, once the human ship is found to enter the far sea, then sinking is the only outcome, after all, no matter how advanced the human sonar is, it cannot match the real sea creatures in the water.
However, after confirming the news that the Amazons and Atlanteans will fight on land, whether the ship can pinpoint the location of the doomsday weapons of the people on the sea has become the only hope for human society to take the lead.
However, no amount of outstanding sense of mission could change the extremely oppressive atmosphere on this ship, and even the commanders were not in much of the mood to adjust such a tense atmosphere.
They just want to get the job done quickly and then return home before they are destroyed.
In the main control room below the deck of the ship, which is filled with various surveillance instruments, a bald man in a black suit is operating several sonars and unmanned submarines released into the deep sea at the same time.
His work efficiency alone is equivalent to that of a professional team, and he has maintained such a high intensity of work in the hours since he set sail.
He is quite focused and unwilling to waste time distracted by other things.
"Luther, haven't you found it yet?"
A deep voice rang out from behind Laibald.
Wearing combat armor, Schrader Wilson strode into the main control room, carrying two combat knives on his back and looking murderous, but the only remaining left eye shone with a more solemn light.
He walked over to Lex Luthor, who was busy in front of the console, and whispered:
"We are getting closer and closer to the military defense line laid out by the undersea dogs in the Atlantic, and if the previous parade can only be regarded as a provocation, then what we are going to do next is equivalent to urinating in the faces of the undersea people."
"Commander Schredder, we're looking for a doomsday weapon that the Atlanteans would use to ensure common annihilation, and I don't think they'd leave such a weapon outside of the military forbidden ground for anyone to see."
Lai Bald didn't look back at all.
His cold and aura-filled eyes stared at the screen in front of him that reported different data, picked up the coffee cup in his hand and took a sip, and said in a calm tone:
"Getting into the Atlantis line was part of the plan, otherwise I wouldn't have asked you to lead the ship's armed forces."
"You're sending us to death!"
Knell whispered:
"And you didn't tell the commanders and me the whole plan before you left, it's a deception, it's more like a betrayal."
"But you know exactly what choices they'll make if they know where we're going."
Lai Bald, who was dressed in a straight suit, snorted indifferently and said:
"For a group of frightened people, the best way to get them to obey orders is to 'hide it in good faith'. If they don't know they're going to hell, maybe they have more courage and hope. ”
He paused, reached out and turned on another scope, and said in a low voice:
"So, Commander Schredder, will you also be afraid to sail to Hell?"
"I'm not afraid of death."
Knell crossed his arms and looked at the various backhaul data on the screen in front of him, and said:
"The long conflict has long since exhausted all my patience, I am already very tired, and perhaps dying in such a voyage is not an unacceptable ending.
My only question is, is our impending death as valuable as you think it is? ”
"Of course! I can be sure of that. ”
Lai Bald finally smiled.
He got up from his chair, coughed and looked at the time of his watch, and the scientific officer, known as the "wise man", turned to the death knell who was looking at him and said:
"The Atlanteans thought they were well hidden, but they had caught obvious gamma-ray convergence points before our satellites were destroyed by their laser weapons.
Those high-energy rays have far more energy levels than ordinary nuclear weapons, and unless the people of the sea suddenly intend to share their clean energy technology with the world, I'm 100% sure that the exposed energy points are where their doomsday weapons are.
Commander, this is not a search of chance. ”
Lex Luthor raised his coffee cup and took a sip, his gaze determined as he said:
"Actually, I already knew where it was before I left!
Our real task is to punch an isotope marker on that doomsday giant ship that won't be diluted by seawater before it moves to the battlefield to play its role."
"Well, it's like a laser guide."
It dawned on Schredder.
He said:
"With that mark, our weapons can accurately lock onto the vast sea and destroy the Atlanteans in one fell swoop.
So, the secret alien vehicle modification project that has been being led by you in the lower layers of the base was prepared for this attack?
While everyone is scared, you've already prepared a whole set of tactics against the undersea dogs.
He is worthy of a wise man. ”
"It's a pity that it's not smart enough"
There was no pleasure in being praised on Lai Bald's face.
The bald man never seemed to show that emotional out-of-control expression, he was cold and precise, and there were few emotions in his wise eyes other than thinking.
At this time, after revealing his plan to Slade Wilson and others, he seemed to have finally completed one of his missions, and the moment he finished drinking coffee, the whole person seemed to be "relaxed".
"Is there any smoke?"
He turned around to look at the complex and sophisticated monitoring screen behind him, and suddenly said something.
The Death Knell Commander was stunned for a moment, but then took one of the cigars he was carrying, handed it to the wise man in front of him, and whispered:
"I've heard them say you're a weirdo who never enjoys these entertainments, doesn't have girlfriends, doesn't have personal hobbies, and doesn't even have many friends. They say you're a robot with a human face."
"If only that were the case, I would have a lot less worries than I shouldn't."
Lai Bald skillfully enjoyed his cigar, and he said expressionlessly:
"It's not that I don't know how to entertain, it's just that it's not necessary.
I was born here with my mission, my growth, my learning, my wisdom all serving this task, just like the beginning and end of a line, and the process in between can be ignored.
It only wants me to do what I have to do at this moment.
Just like my death in ten to fifteen minutes, everything was already arranged. ”
This kind of strong fatalistic words made the commander next to him frown, and he couldn't help but retort:
"How can a wise man like you believe this? I've heard that your IQ is even comparable to that of Albert Einstein, but why do I think you're committing suicide? ”
"Because, I saw the truth."
Lai Bald spat out a puff of smoke rings and said in a dumb voice:
"As your eyes focus on the tribal war and the appearance of a world-class crisis, I have seen a cold end, which allows me to deal with it all more sensibly.
It's like someone who reads War and Peace and thinks it's a joke, while someone who reads through the doughnut ingredient list can gain insight into the mysteries of the universe.
The world is unequal after all. ”
"Huh?"
Death Knell felt uncomfortable, and he said with a slight sarcasm:
"So you're the wise man who can see the true meaning of the universe in the ingredient list?"
"No!"
Lex Luthor looked back at him and said very seriously:
"I'm the doughnut."
“?”
Deathstroke really didn't know how to respond to this god-like guy right now, but he didn't need to consume brain cells to fight this high-IQ bastard.
Because just a few seconds later, a shrill siren sounded around the entire ship.
This was a sign of attack, and the fact that the rolling waters around them were shaking violently on the freshest expedition ship meant that the people at the bottom had discovered them.
"I need ten minutes."
Putting the cigar in his hand, he returned to his chair and began to start a special program, and he said to the masked Death Knell:
"If you want to realize your value, you have to buy me ten minutes, otherwise the next time the real dream changes, you will be demoted to a 'passerby' for poor performance.
Schredder, it's been a pleasure working with you, and I hope we'll be friends the next time we meet. ”
"Ten minutes, huh?"
The old hero strode out of the main control room, pulled out the modified pistol on his waist and loaded it with a click, the red and black streamers behind him were flying, and he said without looking back:
"It's a little difficult, but I'll try my best."
"Bang"
The hatch was closed and locked from the outside, and in the dark cabin, Rybald shrugged his shoulders and picked up the cigar again, his sharp eyes fixed on the screen as the smoke rose.
Say:
"Countdown to the thirteenth world reset.104 hours goodbye, Lex Luthor, the wise man in a desperate situation."
——
"Bang"
Dressed in the armor of an Atlantean stormtrooper soldier, Bane slammed into the shaky deck as the waves swept away, and beside him were a dozen minions under his command.
The big villain cautiously didn't rush out at the first time, but instead hid behind a torn deck, while the fanatics around him shouted Arthur Curry's name and launched a suicidal attack on the human defenses ahead.
Well, that's not quite right.
On the battlefields of the seas, the Atlanteans always have the upper hand, and these humans are like a meal delivered to your door.
Slaughtered!
"Deal with them quickly, Bane, the Doomsday Ship is about to set sail, and we may be left behind sooner."
The sound of a death knell came from the communicator in his ears, and he said:
"Mason's infiltrators will show up at any moment, and I don't want to mess up my first operation in a parallel world, which would ruin my perfect operational resume."
"Perfect? Are you referring to perfection that has been blown out by Batman at least seven times? ”
Bane saw the undersea man in front of him rush into the position in front of him and attract firepower before jumping out, charging quickly and mocking in his own peculiar tone:
"You really have a problem with the definition of perfection, Schréder. Dead shot, cover me! ”
"Bang"
A crisp gunshot grazed Bane's helmet, and the fully charged bullet pierced through the three soldiers in a row and hit the energy tube of the non-firing laser weapon with precision, and then a violent explosion erupted on the deck, tearing apart half of the firepower net.
"Their commander is retreating, Bane, forward and then left."
The voice of the Death Shooter rang out, directing to:
"You just rush! I'll help you hold him down. ”
"Roger!"
Bane smirked and grabbed a strengthening needle from his belt and plunged it into his arm.
Then Mason gave him a booster that made his body swell up like a balloon, and seemed to regain the pleasure of taking drugs and beating people, Bane roared, lifted the leg of the superhuman who sneaked up next to him, and swept forward like a war hammer.
This scene greatly inflicted the morale of the undersea people who rushed to the ship.
They also rushed with Bane, and soon made a mess of the ship's position.
And the old death knell will continue to dodge the bullets that the haunting sniper can pass through the wall, he boasted to Luthor that he could buy ten minutes in the sea, but in the face of the battle situation in front of him, this old hero is indeed powerless, and can only rely on the self-destruction method of arranging explosives to delay the attack of the undersea people.
But soon as the hatch to the ship's hull was blown away by brute force, Old Deathstroke knew that his journey might be over when Bane's massive monster-like figure appeared in front of him.
However, when he drew his katana and was about to fight to the death, Bane, who should have rushed up and tore him apart, stopped in place.
He looked at the fierce old man in front of him strangely, took a step back, and said to the communicator:
"Hey, Shredder, do you remember the joke you made when we first came here?"
"I'm joking a lot, which one are you talking about?"
Death Knell said impatiently:
"Don't waste time! You weren't such a mother-in-law before, Bain, did the medicine Mason give you spoil your brain? ”
"No, no, no, I'm serious."
Bain Says:
"I see another you! He's right in front of me, an old man, and if you're not interested in that, I'll break his back, and it's really easy. ”
“.”
The death knell on the other end of the communicator was silent for a few seconds, and said:
"You go and get busy with you, I'll come right over!"
"Hey"
Bane let out a weird laugh.
Under the surprised gaze of the old death knell, the big guy turned around and walked away as if he didn't see him, this strange scene made the old hero stunned in place, but he quickly reacted.
He rushed to the center of the ship, which was already unsaved, intending to flee with Luthor.
But just as he was approaching the main control room, the old death knell suddenly blossomed in front of him, and then the whole person "teleported" to the galley of the battleship out of thin air.
The famous Batman and a teenager in a small batsuit were standing in front of him, and a red-clad guy disappeared and reappeared in seconds to bring the similarly confused Luthor in.
The latter also had a loaded gun in his hand.
Obviously, although Lai Bald said that fate was so boring, he still planned to resist when he died, what a hypocritical guy.
"I know what you're trying to ask, but I can't explain it for a while."
The old lady said in a hoarse tone while changing the bullets for her pistol:
"You just need to follow us and don't ask anything else!"
"You guys."
Before Old Knell could say anything, Lai Bald became excited.
The always calm guy stared at the three people in front of him who shouldn't have appeared, and his sharp eyes were filled with a excitement that no one else could understand.
Brandishing a pistol, he said:
"Variables! Unknown variables trigger unknown outcomes, damn! Do you know how long I've been waiting? I even thought you would never show up. ”
"What are you talking about? Baldy! ”
Damian said very politely:
"Are you quiet, do you want to lure the whole ship over?"
"Someone's coming."
Barry motioned for the crowd to be quiet, and he swooped out.
A few seconds later, a man in the uniform of an undersea commander reappeared, who reached down and removed his mask, revealing the black and red helmet underneath, and then removed his mask with a strange laugh.
revealed a middle-aged, somewhat rough and cold face, this scene made the knife in the old Knell's hand almost fall to the ground.
This old man saw himself more than ten years ago in a trance, and even the traces of ruffian between his eyebrows were exactly the same.
"You're too weak, aren't you?"
Schrader Wilson made a few gestures to the old lady "to the code", while looking at the old version of himself and complained ruthlessly:
"Old and weak and pathetic, I reckon you have to get up twice a night, look at you, even the hand holding the knife will tremble, you are such a weak fellow that people are pitiful."
The two death knells just looked at each other under the gaze of others.
After a few seconds of confrontation, the middle-aged version of Wilson snorted and took the initiative to reach out to the old version of himself.
He said:
"But you old dog is probably still of some use, so I'll reluctantly accept you.
You see, I'm planning a 'Death Knell Troopers' that will bring together all of the alternate worlds and do something big.
And I'm missing an adjutant right now.
Are you interested? ”
"If I say no, you'll definitely give me a bullet."
Old Deathbell sneered and said:
"Because I would have done this ten to fifteen years ago, but why are you the boss?"
"If the two of you are done competing, then maybe we should withdraw?"
The old lady said quietly.
The two Death Knells snorted at the same time, and the two hands with the same color armor were also held together, which was considered a temporary union.
This scene made the onlookers Lai Bald full of interest.
He obviously had the idea of studying such a wonderful thing as a "space-time heterotope", but in the next second, the middle-aged death knell raised his pistol against his bare forehead.
Schrader Wilson stared at Lex Luthor, and he whispered:
"And you! I'm haunted by the ghost of another nasty Luthor, and I even have to do something dangerous for him, and I want to get rid of him!
Get rid of that gloomy dead bald man forever.
Mason's previous actions have given me a big inspiration, perhaps, you can give me some useful advice for dealing with another you? ”
