Chapter 188: The Demon Appears, Darkseid's Shadow

"I punched that idiot Tom in the face, and then elbowed him..."

On the helicopter, Billy, who had already shouted "Shazam" and turned into a muscular man in a cape, was still chattering about his glorious deeds of beating up several other teenage boys.

"He wanted to trick two people together and attack me by surprise, but I just kicked him with a left kick, and then a right whip kick..."

Chen Tao had to point his finger at his nonsense and pulled him away from his seat to make some space: "Don't say it for now."

He opened his cape.

The hatch under the helicopter opened, and below was an invisible bat plane hovering in the air.

"Wow, so cool." Billy said.

Chen Tao asked Billy's adoptive father again with a silent look.

Adoptive father Victor Vasquez exhaled, and then confirmed with Chen Tao again: "It's just a visit, not a fight?"

"Yeah."

Seeing that the other party was still a little hesitant, Chen Tao emphasized to him: "You can't keep Billy in your bottle forever."

Billy's adoptive father Victor finally choked back his last words, and he made up his mind: "Okay. Billy, you have to go early..."

But before he finished speaking, Chen Tao picked up Billy, and with the other party's shouts of flying high, he took him directly into the invisible bat plane.

With a bang, the door closed.

Victor saw Alfred turn his head on the screen: "Now, do you want to go home directly, Mr. Victor?"

On the other side.

"They always bully others, but this time they did it in front of me. How can I tolerate it? I was..."

Chen Tao drove the plane expressionlessly.

"Hey, Billy."

"Uh-huh?"

"Well, I mean." Chen Tao paused.

"When you rushed up to beat up those school bullies, did you ever think about what the consequences might be?" Chen Tao said, "For example... For example, you can't beat them, or maybe you just need to walk away and pretend that you didn't see it, so there's no need to conflict with them... or something." "What? Of course not!" Billy said, "Even if you can't beat them, you have to fight!" He waved his fists twice on the co-pilot: "I will never be afraid of bad guys!" Chen Tao pursed his lips. Some kind of heroic qualities... It can only be said that every member of the Justice League has more or less such innate heroic qualities. "Ha, are you testing me by asking me this, Mr. Wayne?" Billy shook his fist excitedly: "When I have a chance later, I will definitely show you how powerful I am!" How reckless it is, Chen Tao resisted the urge to hold his forehead. Billy has been talking from the beginning to now, almost without stopping for a moment. Even as a child, his energy is too strong. "Okay, okay, we're here." He drove the plane and landed silently on the lawn outside the Star Lab. "Listen to me, we're not here to fight this time, so you'd better behave maturely." The hatch opened, and Billy jumped out first. Chen Tao reached out and pressed a few times on the Batplane's console, saying: "I've sent messages to people in the government, such as Colonel Steve Trevor and Agent Amanda Waller. Maybe we'll see them rushing over in a dozen minutes." The invisible plane showed its outline under his operation. Chen Tao did this to prevent someone walking on the lawn from bumping into the invisible plane and getting bloody. "But before they get here, we have to exercise restraint to prevent misunderstandings, understand? "I don't want the government to misunderstand that we're going to use force to snatch the mother box." "Originally, they were guarding against us like thieves, and didn't want them to leak the news that they found a mother box to us. If we directly robbed it by force, it would only touch their sensitive nerves. "He jumped out of the cabin and parked the plane. "Although leaving dangerous things like the Mother Box in the interstellar laboratory is something that must be changed, we still have to discuss it with the government. After all, they are the government and represent the most basic public order. "

Chen Tao said, thinking deeply.

Since the Brainiac incident, his relationship with the government has become increasingly tense, which is a very bad problem.

Once there is no visible and tangible external threat, the bad nature of human internal fighting begins to show.

Perhaps Amanda Waller's direct use of her authority to make the government fully cooperate with Batman stimulated some of the fighting factions within them, or perhaps the metal man and his armored troops gave the fighting factions a certain degree of confidence.

So, now the government is not only desperately hiding their findings from him, but also trying its best to mislead his news.

For example, Dr. Randolph before, and the Kryptonian spacecraft carrying the super dog Xiao Krypton that they detected.

Chen Tao has long wanted to find an opportunity to talk to the government people openly. Although it is impossible to establish a close relationship like the Avengers and SHIELD next door, at least the unnecessary internal friction must be stopped.

For example, on the issue of the mother box...

Chen Tao turned his head and planned to continue to say to Billy, who had transformed into the strong man Shazam before: "Let's go, remember to be polite, we will..."

A gust of wind blew by, and only Chen Tao and his invisible plane were on the lawn.

"...Billy?"

Boom!

"Haaaaaaaaaaaa!"

Bang!

Billy stood at the gate of the interstellar laboratory. The 45-centimeter-thick iron gate was left with thick footprints by his continuous Spartan kicks. Finally, it could not bear the weight of superhuman strength and collapsed with a loud noise.

"Alarm! Alarm! Invasion! Guards--"

Billy, who turned into Shazam, put his hands on his waist and laughed wildly at the sky: "Hahahahaha! You evil villains, accept the beating of the righteous heroes!"

"Fire!"

Clang clang clang...

In just a few seconds, the rain of bullets like a blizzard poured towards Billy, scaring Billy.

But he soon found that such an attack could only tickle him, and could not even break his skin.

So he quickly puffed up his chest with pride, began to imitate Superman on TV, posed in various bodybuilder-like poses, and then danced like a comedian, swaying his steps, and walked towards the guard who was still firing in vain.

"Heh... Ahhhhh..."

One step, two steps, the barrel of the Gatling gun began to emit red smoke, but it could not hurt the enemy in front of him at all. The guard watched the monster who walked in front of him with bullets, and let out a desperate howl.

He threw down the Gatling gun, then took out his pistol, and shot Shazam in the upper eyelid with a desperate shot.

"Ah!"

This made Shazam jump up: "You actually threw dust in my eyes!"

Then the next moment, he was drowned by more bullets.

A guard hurriedly put his hand on the headset: "Warning, warning, very dangerous. Someone is invading the laboratory. Please notify..."

"...Everyone evacuate, repeat, evacuate..."

The voice of the front-line guard came from the radio, followed by screams and continuous gunfire. All the experimenters stood up. They should have evacuated to a safe area immediately, but...

"Oh my God, Silas, look at these readings!"

Dr. Stone's female assistant suddenly screamed: "Whatever this thing is, we seem to have activated it just now!"

Dr. Stone immediately rushed to the computer: "He is transmitting!"

"Can you track the source of energy?"

"I'm trying to lock the signal!"

And his son, Victor Stone gritted his teeth.

"Someone is invading outside! Dad, you are still studying this thing at this time!"

He turned his head to look at the shaking mother box, then quickly caught up with his father and shouted in his ear: "Is this thing more important to you than your own son?"

Dr. Stone was headached by his violent shouting, and he turned around suddenly.

"Enough!"

"...Enough!"

Chen Tao, who arrived late, turned into a blue afterimage, like a bullet shot at high speed.

The speeding bullet bat was synchronized with him, stretching his whole body and presenting a pure blue appearance.

He grabbed Billy's raised fist: "We are not going to attack them!"

He turned his head and saw the iron door on the ground like a crumpled toilet paper. He couldn't help choking, and then immediately turned around and shouted loudly: "You also kicked the door, my God! Didn't you hear what I said to you before?"

"Ha, what did you say to me before?"

Looking at Billy who was blinking like a fool, Chen Tao sighed heavily.

He turned to look at the guards who were holding guns and looking like they were facing a great enemy. He raised his hands in a hurry: "Hey, guys, we have no ill intentions. If you know me, you should know who I am. Amanda Waller and Steve Trevor will be here soon. He will explain the current situation..." But Chen Tao's face suddenly changed before he finished speaking. Because he felt a huge energy bursting inside the interstellar laboratory. At this time, he squinted his eyes with rapid bullets. He couldn't see the specific situation clearly. The government people lined the laboratory with lead coating. It is self-evident who this move is to prevent. But even lead can't stop Chen Tao from feeling that unconventional power burst. The situation is very wrong. Chen Tao frowned. The burst of energy was too vivid. He was afraid that he had to... He sighed. "Gentlemen, can you move aside for a while? I have something to do inside right now." No one moved aside. Chen Tao picked up Shazam and ignored the guards who kept shooting, and walked directly to the next iron door.

There were several iron doors in this laboratory, and there were two iron doors that he could see through because they were not coated with lead.

Chen Tao raised his foot and kicked the iron door backwards, causing a shout from the guards behind him.

"Hey, buddy, you are much better at kicking iron doors than me."

Shazam, who was held in his hand, said, "Do you like to kick iron doors yourself?"

Chen Tao had a blank expression on his face and ignored his jokes. He raised his foot again:

Boom!

With a bang, Victor, who had just walked behind his father, heard a violent explosion behind him.

The violent sound and light almost deafened his ears in an instant.

He turned his head and was dumbfounded to see a portal opening from behind him. Countless tiny metal chains connected in the void to form a circle, and then there was a deep red chaos in the middle.

Then, a... monster jumped out from the chaos.

That thing had a pair of flesh wings, but was covered with steel armor. Its face, which looked like a rotten corpse fished out of magma, had rows of teeth.

There was an Ohm pattern on their hearts, and half of their bodies were even implanted with some machinery, emitting a faint fluorescence.

In just a few seconds after the door opened, four or five such monsters jumped out.

"Ah!"

With a violent scream, before Victor could react, he saw the monster grab an experimental assistant who had not had time to escape, and tore him in half amid the other's screams, and blood and intestines fell out like flowers scattered by a fairy.

"Help, quickly..."

The laboratory was in chaos. Victor saw that there seemed to be more monsters rushing out from behind the portal, but at this moment, the metal on the upper edge of the portal suddenly burst into lightning, and then the portal suddenly closed, and the reset mother box fell to the ground with a bang. One of the monsters immediately picked him up and ran out quickly.

"Ah!"

In the blink of an eye, a monster rushed directly towards Victor and his father. The future Cyborg bravely rushed up and punched the monster hard!

Then... he almost broke his fist. The monster backhanded him and he flew backwards.

Boom!

Cough cough cough...

In the smoke and dust, Victor struggled to support his body in a pile of debris that he knocked over, and then he saw the monster lifting his father with bloodshot eyes.

"Help!"

Victor's eyes widened.

The words his father just said exploded in his ears.

"Open your eyes and see! Son... they can fly, tear apart buildings... they can make everything you can do a piece of cake..."

"... In a world like that, isn't it a joke to throw a ball to conquer the world?"

"No!"

He tried his best to get up from the ground, not feeling the pain of his bones being broken.

The excellent physical fitness of a football player allowed him to move after being hit by the monster, but he couldn't do anything.

Under the influence of adrenaline, he ran behind the monster and punched and kicked the other's stone-like body desperately, but he couldn't change the other's action of strangling his father's throat with one hand.

The monster seemed to be looking at his father, looking at whether it was valuable.

"No matter who it is, no matter who it is!"

Victor punched again and again: "Whoever can save my dad, who will save my dad!"

Then he heard a loud noise.

He turned his head and saw the aggressive Batman kicking the last iron gate away, followed by the panting guards.
