Chapter 231: Metal Man, Luther, Illuminati!
John Wayne Cobain used to be a soldier, and now he's a metal man!
Like other soldiers, after graduating from high school, he couldn't find a job and joined the army, and then he joined the Middle East theater, participated in several battles against the local army, and earned a few medals.
Because there was no one above, his future in the army stopped at that of a non-commissioned officer, and then he joined a privately operated security company that could give high salaries without any psychological burden.
During the Brainiac invasion, he was in charge of the security of the Lutor Group. Faced with an overwhelming array of robots, his vast experience on the battlefield was useless, and he became disabled, picked up by Luthor and returned to the laboratory, where he was transformed into a cyborg.
Nearly all of his flesh and blood had been replaced by steel, leaving only his heart and brain, his mechanical eyes swirling around, emitting a scanner-like red light, and a kryptonite embedded in his chest, the energy inside ready to strike a fatal blow at Superman.
This is the tool that Luthor has carefully crafted to deal with Superman, sophisticated and deadly, but his first mission is to kill Luthor's own sister.
The reason is also simple, because Leah wants to transform the Luthor Group and is at risk on the superhero's side. Faced with this possibility, Luthor did not hesitate to give the order to kill his own sister.
"What a madman!"
The metal man stayed in the secret base, his eyes scanning the surveillance footage, and his metal joints made a little noise as they rubbed against each other every time he moved.
"Even if I've been transformed into this, I still think that Luthor guy is a pure lunatic. That's a sister with a blood connection, and he can kill if he says it! ”
There were no humans in this base, and the metal man was just talking to himself, and he whispered, "Poor Leah Luthor, you are so unlucky to be born into such a cruel family. I hope you remember the lessons of this death, and maybe you can find a devil in hell to help you get revenge! ”
The jaw made of metal opened and closed, and it didn't really mean anything, and it was the speaker in his voice that really made the sound.
The metal man didn't realize that everything that belonged to John Wayne Cobain was disappearing, and all that was left was the coldness of the machine.
"Now, let's get this done while that horrible Ian and the unknown little magician aren't there!"
"The Metropolis is getting stranger and stranger, and everything I used to know is slowly disappearing. It's all to blame on the damned Gotham, why can't they honestly accept their own hell, and have to rush out and harm others! ”
The metal man continued to babble and complain about everything, and then his finger opened, revealing the interface plugged into the computer's hard drive, and more drones flew out of the other base, heading for Lea Tech.
"Ahh This road is not going to work! ”
As soon as the drone lifted off, the metal man saw the person he least wanted to see - Ian, he flew in the air without the help of anything, the blue light flashed, and all the drones were blocked by blue chains.
"Holy!"
Even though the metal man no longer has the scalp as an organ, seeing this scene still makes his scalp tingle and tremble.
The next moment, he made a judgment.
Run, get out of here!
If I get caught by this guy, I'm doomed.
It took the metal man less than a second to go from thinking to deciding, but as soon as he got up, he felt an incomparably large amount of data surging from the network he was connected to, and it hit his brain directly along the drone.
"Me"
In the face of this data shock, the metal man had no time to react, he was wrapped in a huge amount of data, like a reef in the center of the boundless sea, receiving the constant impact from all directions.
All well-built firewalls and network defense mechanisms are not worth mentioning before the direct and violent computing power, and instantly collapse into countless basic numbers, scattered in the data network, unable to organize an effective counterattack.
"That bastard Luthor lied to me, he didn't put any advanced protection mechanisms on me at all!"
This was the metal man's last thought before he lost consciousness.
If Luthor had known about this, he would have cried out.
Did he throw the metal man out as a shield and bait, of course he did, he didn't even care about his own sister, how could he care about a machine.
But in the same way, in order to test how much his technology can cause superheroes, Luthor did put all his first-class inventions on metal men.
It's not that Luthor doesn't work hard, it's that Ian is too perverted.
The Mechanical Stone had already given Ian the ability to enter the world of metal and data, and then he encountered the Metal Spirit, which took that power to the next level.
And the moment he returned to Earth, the Metal Spirit gave him Brainiac's technology, and once again expressed his desire for Ian to become the agent of the Metal Spirit.
Ian refused, of course, but promised to find him a qualified candidate.
In short, now that he is standing on Earth, he can easily break through most of the network, and the reason why not all of them is because some things are always weird, relying on magic or other things to maintain contact.
"It's as simple as that?"
Rachel tore open a gap in space, looked at the metal man who was defeated by the system, and shook her head in some frustration.
"I thought I was going to see a big scene. Is there only a tin shell? ”
Ian then walked in, looked at the kryptonite on the metal man's chest, and laughed, "Then what do you think you should do?" Did the two of us fall into a trap, face a heavy siege, and defeat the enemy after a bloody battle? ”
"Rachel, you're one of the most powerful people on the planet, and few can beat you in a head-to-head duel."
Rachel looked at the magic fairy arrow flute in her hand and nodded, and then asked, "Who is this guy, and the machine that Luthor transformed?" ”
Ian touched her head and glanced up and down at the metal man in front of him, "Luther's technique is indeed good, at least better than Dr. Silas, he actually stuffed the brain and heart of a living person into metal, and forcibly transformed him into a machine." ”
"Of course, it's also possible that he doesn't care about this guy's life or death at all, so he has no scruples about it, but it's easier."
Ian pulled the metal man's memories straight out of the mech and displayed them as holograms.
"What a bad guy!"
Rachel looked at the bloody transformation scene and shuddered: "If I were to encounter such a thing, I would rather die right now." ”
"Even if you have the same experience, as long as your soul is not destroyed, you can be reborn with the help of magic."
Ian expressed his helplessness at Rachel's behavior of being full of men and not knowing that hungry men were hungry, as Rachel became an adult, the power hidden in her bloodline began to appear, coupled with the care of the Three Palaces Demon Seal and the Demon Immortal System, there were more and more special features in her.
"That's right!"
Rachel put the magic fairy arrow flute on her chin and smirked twice, "If you don't mention it, I've almost forgotten about these things, and I hardly use these abilities in my daily life." ”
"Don't worry, there's a chance for you to show what you're capable of." Ian begins disassembling the Metal Man weapon module, searching for the dangerous self-detonation device that Luthor has installed in the mech.
"In the midst of war? Then I'd rather never have such an opportunity. Rachel crouched beside Ian and watched him, her eyes curled into two moons.
"It's not up to us to decide."
While Ian and Rachel were arguing, he had taken complete control of the metal man's system, and Luthor did have ten self-detonation devices in the metal man's body to cover each other.
If it weren't for Ian's power to be a metal spirit, he wouldn't have been able to find them all.
"I'm starting to suspect that Luthor sent this guy here, not to assassinate, but to carry out a suicide attack."
Ian destroys the detonators of all ten bombs in his hand, and turns them directly to metal.
Syllable!
Ian slapped the metal man's head, and the scattered data in his head instantly reorganized, and then the system reorganized, and his mechanical eyes emitted red light again.
"You ......"
With a flick of Ian's index finger, the metal man turned mute: "You can only speak with my permission." Got it, flash your mechanical eyes. ”
The metal man is now in his heart with two words, horror.
He felt that he had completely become a puppet in the hands of the guy in front of him, and he had no choice but to watch the other party command him.
However, he made a decision the next moment, and made the mechanical eye flash red once, as Ian said.
It's important to save your life, what is your face!
"Very well, you're a smart guy, and I hope our next conversation goes so well."
Ian nodded with satisfaction, I have to say that this kind of behavior that can control others casually can indeed bring people a special sense of coolness.
He shook his head and shook all these boring things out, then lifted the ban on the metal man's voice and asked, "Where did Lex Luthor transform you?" ”
"That's all you have to ask?" The metal man was a little surprised: "If you are interested in Lex Luthor, I can say something more valuable." ”
Ian didn't speak, just stared at the metal man, and after seeing that the cyborb was hairy in his heart, he said: "It seems that you really don't know, Lex Luthor has installed a program in your brain, and if you are familiar with this body, the more the program will control your brain, until it completely turns you into a tool."
If it's not about worrying about the loss of any important information, I'll just turn on your brain. But the result of that is that your brain is roasted by the heat in a second. ”
"That beach boy, dog xxxxxx......"
The metal man checked his program and became a C language master on the spot, greeting all the men and women of Lex Luther's ancestors for eighteen generations.
"Won't you stop him?"
Rachel is no stranger to swearing, but instead of saying it explicitly, she lets Ian cover her ears and lean into his arms.
Ian hugged Rachel's soft body and said nonchalantly, "The more he scolds, the more resentment he will have against Lex Luthor, and the more news we can get." ”
Finally, the metal man squirted all the dirty words he knew out of his mouth, and the mechanical eyes turned, and he saw Ian and Rachel entangled, and his mood instantly became extremely lost.
"Shet, can't you fall in love somewhere else? Isn't it fun to do this in front of me, a disabled person who can no longer experience these feelings? ”
The metal man protested loudly, of course people like him often cared for women who had fallen into their feet, but going to bed was one thing, falling in love was another.
Rachel hugged Ian and didn't want to leave, but Ian didn't let go of the little girl, and said, "To answer my question, I can unprogram Luthor in your brain, and maybe one day in the future, I can change you to a mechanical body with a touch of feeling." ”
"Deal." Without any hesitation, the metal man sold Luthor directly, agreeing to the deal proposed by Ian: "I know you want to find Luther, but I want you to assure you that the place where I was transformed has long been abandoned, and there is nothing in it." ”
"So you've been looking for it? It seems that you don't believe Luther. ”
The metal man said as a matter of course: "We are bad people, believing that this word is too much for me, it is normal to be wary of each other." Everything you found in me speaks for itself. ”
He seemed to curse Luthor a few more times in his heart before continuing: "Anyway, they're looking for something called the Mother Box? ”
"Mother box?" Ian shook his head helplessly.
"Looks like you've heard of that." The metal man was a little surprised: "It was ordered by Luthor's supporters to look for it, I heard that it is a prop left behind by aliens, which is very important." ”
"By the way, with a message, Luther's supporters call themselves the 'Illuminati', and the leader is Vandal Savage."
"Uh...... The name is really in line with the imagination of conspiracy theories. ”
Ian let go of Rachel, waved his hand to unblock the metal man, and said to him, "I've restricted the program in your brain, go to the Gotham Police Station and turn yourself in, obediently admit that you assassinated Leah Luthor, and then you'll be safe." ”
The metal man's mechanical eyes turned, looked at Ian and Rachel, and bowed his head, "It seems that I have no choice, but it would be nice for someone like me to live." But don't forget what you promised me, remember to change my body with feelings. ”
"No problem, let's go!"
Ian waved his hand to get the metal man out of the way, and the metal man flew out down the ventilation duct.
"Won't this guy run away?" Rachel didn't believe in the robot that nearly killed her friend.
"Of course he'll run away, but what Luthor can do, I can do."
Ian didn't care about the little things that could be done with a wave of his hand, and his attention was all focused on what he had just heard.
"Luthor is still involved with the Mother Box, and there is a Illuminati. We're going to be busy right now. ”
Ian leaves the base with Rachel.
In the days that followed, the situation in Metropolis and Gotham changed dramatically, with all the gangs being swept away, businessmen being excluded from the circle, and lawmakers breaking out all sorts of scandals.
When all this is over, the two cities are more connected, and all power is in the hands of Ian.
With this stable foundation, Ian can finally prepare for the coming war with all his might.
The first thing he had to do was to find the mother box that Victor had hidden, and close the passage for the Apocalypse Army to quickly enter Earth.
