Chapter 389: The Invisible Enemy
The sudden sneak attack blew up the Green Lantern, and Shen You dodged away and immediately followed the direction of the light path with Ultra's gaze.
But nothing.
It's empty, it's still a piping system made of Apocalypse Alloy. There was no room for hiding, and there was nothing unusual in the shadows on the ground.
When the new god tried to sneak attack before, he hid in the shadows and launched an attack, so Shen You also paid a little attention to it. But now it doesn't seem to be that the sign.
It's as if the beam was generated out of thin air.
"Cut, pretending to be a fool."
Alain let out a loud shout, and the green fire burned on his body and prepared to take off. He raised the lamp ring and was about to explode, but suddenly felt that he was being pulled by a strong force. When I looked down, I saw a hand stretched out from the ground under my feet at some point, and coldly grabbed his ankle.
"Hiding underneath?"
Alain let out a loud shout and threw his fist down without thinking. The energy of the lamp ring exploded, and the dazzling green light turned into an electric drill and rumbled through the ground. The sturdy Apocalypse Alloy was also pierced on the spot, creating a huge hole in Alain's feet.
But I saw that the hole that was blasted out was also empty, only the earth and rocks under the base were exposed, and there was nothing else.
"How so?" Alain was surprised, "But someone was clearly catching me just now. Where did it go? ”
Shen You remained silent and continued to try to scan with Ott's line of sight. However, as always, the Apocalypse Architecture has shielding from rays on multiple frequency bands, and the result of the super sensory feedback seems to be that there is nothing here.
In fact, from the moment he first entered this fire pit, Shen You felt a little disobedient.
According to those who defected to the Apocalypse, these fire pits should be the key to Apocalypse's next move. Since there is a base hidden underneath, it must be heavily guarded, and even their headquarters on Earth is not surprising.
But the fact is, from the moment they came in, the whole facility was empty. I didn't see anyone except the long-tongued woman who had just rushed out for nothing, which was really abnormal.
And now they were clearly under attack, but there was still no one around. Maybe it had something to do with the fact that the base was empty all the time.
Shout.
Another sneak attack of a glowing beam. But he failed to succeed in the previous surprise attack, and at this time, Shen You had already prepared, so it was naturally impossible to hit. This time, however, he dodged and watched the beam of light come from a spot on the inner wall of the pipe. But the pipe did not run through, but seemed to have a ripple on the wall of the pipe, and the light shot out of thin air.
Shen You saw it in his eyes, and his heart moved. At this moment, a strong wind swept behind him, as if someone had predicted the trajectory of his dodge, and a huge and powerful fist was wrapped in the annihilation energy generated by some kind of apocalypse technology, and blasted towards the direction of his dodge with a scorching wind and waves.
There is a high probability that it will be a blow from the new gods, because the speed is extremely fast, and even among the new gods, it is considered to be relatively fast.
Of course, but Shen You is faster.
The lightning of the divine speed force flashed, and Shen You's trajectory of dodging behind him stopped abruptly, retracted his footsteps, turned around and staggered the punch that came out behind him, and turned around to counterattack with a punch.
It was a dark-blue-skinned, rough-looking new god, and I couldn't help but be surprised to see the incredible speed and anti-physical movements that were so fast by the standards of the new gods.
Can it be so fast?
Shen You came first, and a punch landed on the new god's face first. The latter snorted miserably, blood splattered from the bridge of his broken nose, and he flew upside down with his head up.
But when Shen You turned around and stood still, he saw that the body of the new god who was knocked away hit the pipe behind him, but it did not cause the impact of the collision, but strangely directly penetrated the wall.
Shen You's figure flashed, and he caught up with a punch. The wall exploded with a thud with the incredible force of his fist, and a huge hole was blasted through the back. But the new god was gone, as if it had never existed.
Shen You glanced down and noticed the blood trailing at his feet.
It was the blood gushing out of Shinkami's nose when he smashed the bridge of his nose with a punch. It looked like the other party had clearly crashed into the wall, but the blood stains on the ground stopped abruptly before they touched the wall, and it looked as if they had been cut off.
He thought for a moment, and when he turned to look again, the Green Lantern behind him had disappeared at some point.
In the blink of an eye, he was the only one left in the middle of the huge corridor. The empty pipes are like a yin wind coming from nowhere, with a bit of cold chill.
"I see, I guess I understand."
Shen You smiled slightly.
"Apocalypse's technology really has two clicks, or maybe this is the 'ability' of a new god? But at least with the help of Apocalypse equipment, right? ”
It was still an empty pipe, and only his voice echoed eerily.
"Maybe you think I can't find you even if I know the principle, but that's not necessarily." Shen You smiled, "It's time for the turtle to shrink its head, almost"
He raised his hand and snapped his fingers crisply.
"Right now."
Bang bang –
The muffled sound of a series of physical blows seemed to sound at the same moment. Several ripples exploded in all directions of the pipe, and the eight new gods violently blasted out of one ripple almost in no particular order, and rolled down in front of Shen You in embarrassment.
"The answer is, oscillation."
Shen You looked at the scattered new gods in the place and said expressionlessly.
Oscillation has always been one of the basic theories of the DC universe. The Flash is the first character in comic book history to achieve multiverse shuttle, relying on the resonance of divine speed.
The use of the Oscillation ability in the DC setting is bizarre, including but not limited to world travel, time travel, stealth, physical immunity, rewriting matter, and even soul seizure. Even the essential difference between DCs and the universe is the difference in oscillation frequency.
Shen You was convinced that the ability or technology he was facing was a variant of the oscillation application.
When they came down from the fire pit, they saw a seemingly empty base, but in reality it was just a front to lure the enemy. There is actually another base hidden here, overlapping the space of the surface base, but the oscillation frequency is different and it cannot be seen, like a ghost.
The enemy applies a technique similar to phase change, which allows them to temporarily switch between different frequencies of their attacks or bodies, so that they can constantly surprise the invaders. They duck back into their ghost frequencies when they miss, so they can't be hit or seen, even though they're spattially surrounded by intruders.
This trick is actually no stranger to Shen You. The "Meta Domain" used by Nexus, the representative character of the Aoshan, is also a subspace created based on the principle of phase change, overlapping on the real space but unable to be seen or touched by ordinary people. Shen You didn't have the subspace skills of the Meta Realm, so he couldn't use this trick, but he still learned the theoretical knowledge.
But now that he has the speed force, switching the oscillation frequency or something belongs to the basic exercise of the speed force.
The only problem left is to find the right frequency.
"Do you have the ability to operate at similar frequencies?"
A new god was beaten to the point that his nose was blue and his face was swollen, but he still raised his head with difficulty while covering his face and bleeding, and looked at Shen You in disbelief.
"But how did you hit us? Why are we being thrown out? ”
Shen You smiled when he heard this.
"Trojan Horse."
