Chapter 189: Do I Have a Lower Limit?
"I don't agree!"
Dr. Silas Stone became the first person in the room to react to what his son, Victor, had said.
His originally gentle voice was mixed with a frightened rage: "I am your father, you must listen to me!" Listen, Victor Stone, you're obligated to listen to me! You're still a kid! I will not allow ...... unless I die Uh......"
But before he could finish his sentence, his able-bodied son raised a punching bag and struck him on the back of the head.
"Ouch!"
His voice stopped abruptly, and the whole person lay down on his stomach.
Victor reached out and took his father in his arms and put it down gently.
Shazam next to him was dumbfounded.
"Ah, you ......"
"I've wanted to do that for a long time."
The sturdy black young man deliberately spat on the ground, swearing in his mouth, venting his inner fear.
He leaned his dad gently against the side of the instrument.
"When you're on rugby, there's always something you know...... Some idiot teammates, after the game, broke out into bloodshed. He explained to Shazam, "So, as the captain, that was my little secret that my team would never be banned for fighting. ”
Victor looked down at his old father, who had fallen into a baby's sleep. He muttered in a low voice, so small that it was almost inaudible: "Daddy never knew I would do this......"
But he quickly got to his feet.
"But none of that matters anymore."
He turned around, reached out viciously and picked up the mother box from the instrument, then turned around and grabbed the neck of the experimental assistant next to him: "I ask you to activate this damn mother box, and then send these fucking monsters back to their hometown!" ”
Dr. Stone's white assistant was like a chick in front of the tall black youth, and he kicked on all fours when he was lifted: "Dr. Stone will kill my ...... when he wakes up."
"If you don't do it, I'll kill ...... right now," Victor said subconsciously, and then immediately realized that this would not force the other party to comply.
"That's enough, listen up. I'll rush up whether you start it or not, you can't stop me, and if you don't, I'll be torn to shreds by these monsters, and I'll die in vain. Make your own decisions. ”
Boom!
There was a loud muffled thud.
The jack gate made a tooth-aching sound.
The thickness of this thing is already close to 75 mm, which is definitely more than the armor thickness of most active tanks.
But now the steel is gnawed away like biscuits by the golems outside.
Cyborg hugged the mother box to his chest and began to warm up, as if he was not going to die, but was about to participate in a new competition, and then returned as usual full of glory.
Boom!
"Isn't it, buddy, are you really going to rush into those monsters with such a thing?"
Shazam looked to the left at the gate that erupted with loud noises and gnawling metal, and to the right at Victor's serious face as he warmed up.
"And let this broken box open a portal through that pile of monsters and suck you and them all in?"
Shazam said a little sullenly, "But aren't you sucked across the door like this?" It's basically dead. ”
"Yes."
Victor Stone answered him as he leaned down and made the gesture of a rugby player preparing to start.
The sound on the other side of the jack gate is getting louder and closer. With a loud bang, the gate suddenly appeared a huge deformation.
"But, but you ...... like that"
Shazam stood stupidly next to Victor Stone, who was ready, with an idiot expression that had burned out his brain, and his IQ stopped responding.
He turned his head to look at Batman standing next to him:
"Bat, you can say something!"
Chen Tao was still silent.
Not only is Shazam's CPU overclocked, but his CPU is also being used non-stop-
At this time, although he still looks like a normal human on the surface, his brain has long since become a Batmobile on-board computer.
Coupled with the nanobot-assisted calculations synchronized by the Broken Bat, he is frantically deducing the possibility of future events once the steel bone is lost.
Shazam saw that Batman didn't speak, and then looked at Victor Stone's bowed body.
With a bang, the shape of the jack gate changed violently.
Young Shazam made up his mind.
"Okay, damn it."
He reached out to snatch the mother box from Victor's arms, but because he didn't use his speed beyond ordinary people, Victor, who was known as a rugby player, easily dodged this grab.
"What are you doing?"
"Or ...... Or I'll go, I'll fix this. The young Shazam stumbled a little and said, "I can fly!" I'm a superhero! I might be able to escape the suction of that portal so that no one has to be sacrificed. ”
"Again, most likely you can't." But his words were quickly interrupted by Victor: "Just because you are a superhero, you can't sacrifice in such a pointless place." ”
The black young man looked ahead, and the gaze in his eyes became more and more determined.
"I know what you superheroes are supposed to do. Fight the villains, defeat enemies from alien planets, and protect our planet. I know, I know it. ”
"You can do so much more than I do. You are more important to the world than I am. ”
He glanced at his father lying next to him with some affection: "Even if it is consumed, the person who is consumed first is not you, buddy." It's me, the useless me. ”
Listening to Chen Tao pat his head on the side.
The more he listened, the more he felt that something was wrong.
Oh no, the child's dreams in life were not affirmed, and then it turned out that his father said that "rugby players are meaningless in front of superpowers".
He is now using both prongs, and he is directly autistic at once, and then his Dao heart collapses, giving birth to some self-destructive tendencies.
This self-destructive tendency and his innate heroism fused and catalyzed, and the fear of death was directly overcome on the spot, without even hesitation - unlike Shazam next to him, he was almost entangled in the question of whether to sacrifice or not.
"But...... But you have family. Shazam hesitated and said, "You can't die, you still have a father." ”
He spoke a little smoother:
"And I'm an orphan."
"No one feels sorry if they die, so it's time for me to go."
But despite all that, Shazam still didn't have the courage to use his superpowers to snatch the mother box from Cyborg's hand.
After all, he was only a kid in his teens, and after his clear and stupid brain finally sorted out the current situation, how could he not be afraid?
"It's okay, you know? I'm a rugby player. They all said my arms were like cannons. I could have thrown the mother box far into the center of the monsters like a rugby ball, and then opened the portal. Then I might have a chance to escape. ”
Victor seemed to be comforting Shazam, and it was as if he was comforting himself.
"That's the good thing about a rugby player." "My training and all my professional skills will come in handy," he said. They...... They are not meaningless. ”
"But...... But...... You're Victor (Victorstone's nickname on the football field) so many people are shouting your name, and if you die here, you'll never ...... again."
Victor was slightly stunned, he knew that only fans who had watched his game would know the nickname Victor.
He had heard other people call his name like this countless times, and he was extremely accustomed to someone calling him that, but at this moment, in such a situation, dozens of seconds before he was about to die, he suddenly heard such a familiar name, and he actually had a feeling of dying without regrets.
"Hey, how about doing me a favor?" He said, "Can you cheer me on in the back while I charge later?" It's like you call me out on the rugby field. ”
He raised his arms and shouted symbolically twice:
"Victor! Victor! ”
He saw the look of unbearability in Shazam's eyes. He lowered his arm.
"Please, even if you do me this favor, please."
He said.
This was both a request and a reason for Shazam not to go in his place.
Victorstone's eyes sparkled, as if burning with light and fire, glowing with life like never before, just as he had when he ran out of his father's laboratory and saw a rugby ball for the first time in the square.
Hot and sincere, so jubilant.
Shazam turned his face away, a little ashamed of his timidity.
"Ahem!"
Chen Tao coughed, and just as he was about to say something, he was interrupted by Victor Stone.
"Enough! Batman, anyone of us here can be sacrificed, but you can't, you can't, in such a ridiculous way over such a small matter. ”
He said, "You know what, you've been fighting in Gotham for so many years, and I've grown up listening to your urban legends pretty much since I was a kid. ”
He said sincerely: "The earth needs you Batman, and the humans need you, but they don't need Victorstone, but I think you'll remember me, right?" You'll remember Victorstone. Right now, right now. ”
Knock knock!
Squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak-
The sound of the demons slamming the door outside became faster and louder, and Victor's speech became faster and faster:
"You're more important than I am, Batman. You shouldn't take that risk. I can fix this, maybe I can survive. ”
"Victor!" The lab assistant was sweating profusely as he found a rope from the side and handed it to the future Cyborg.
"Maybe maybe you can rely on him, and we can pull you back!"
"But with the suction power that can suck the demons away, even if there is it......," he said. Oops, no matter what these unlucky things do......"
He paused: "You must survive!" ”
Boom!
The jack gate was finally overwhelmed.
First, wisps of red-hot signs spread from the center of the huge iron gate to the side, followed by several successive loud bangs, and then collapsed with a bang.
Victor Stone tensed his muscles.
And Chen Tao ......
It's still tangling.
The speed bullets were already synchronized with him, the azure mask climbing over his chin, and the creature position unfolded from his body, allowing him to open at any moment, snatching the mother box from Cyborg's body at a speed that exceeded the limits of human reactions, and then letting the golem of Clayface and nanobots run out with it.
But he didn't.
He weighed it back and forth in his mind.
Do you really want to do this? Is it possible that now is the moment when Cyborg is truly born? Will my incurrence interrupt his birth?
He thought wildly, feeling his CPU start to overheat, and his eyes showed wisdom.
Ah, maybe I can save Cyborg and then find a chance to break his limbs and have his dad give him a makeover? Maybe it's a little more convenient.
As soon as this idea came out, Chen Tao immediately shook his head violently.
Oh my God, what was I thinking. This kind of animal behavior has completely broken through the lower limit of human beings. Wait, do I have a lower limit?
Shazam gritted his teeth.
Looking at Victor Stone at the limits of his superhuman reflexes is indeed slow, slow enough for him to have enough time to think.
Anyway, Shazam's head is a mess now.
He looked at Batman, and he didn't mean to go up to save people at all.
Damn, Batman!
Damn, myself!
Call!
I will never ......
The young man gritted his teeth and finally made up his mind.
Within 1/10th of a second, lightning erupted from his body, piercing the air and emitting a slight burnt smell.
Half a second later, the mother box left the palm of Victorstone's running hand, and even though Victorstone was arguably one of the top rugby players on the planet, he still couldn't resist the superhuman super speed.
A second later, Shazam rushed towards the many demons that roared into the room, he had made up his mind, he was ready to come to his senses.
Then he heard a sigh, a low, soft sigh.
"Alas, what a fool I am. I cracked. ”
He saw Batman in front of him, who was wrapped in a breeze, and he was fast, as if he had expected it. Before he could react, Batman cracked as he said -
It was a real crack, and half of his body broke off from his body, turning into a man made of mud, which took the mother box that Batman had snatched and threw at him, and rushed straight at the roaring demons.
The monsters opened their teeth and palms, as if trying to stop him, but the figure shattered into a mass of powder in mid-air, and like a whirlwind, it crossed the barrier of the monsters and rushed directly into them.
Buzz Buzz Buzz ......
With a deafening bang, Shazam saw Batman standing in front of them all.
He heard the big bat sigh again and repeat what he had said:
"Well, I'm a big fool."
He said.
"Do I have a lower limit?"
Then he asked himself questions.
"Obviously, I have. It's annoying. ”
yes, it's today's py. (Covers his ass hard)
