Chapter 510: Stop scolding me! It turns out that I, Darkseid, am the biggest clown!
Lex Luthor took two steps back. All the means he had left in the entire central propulsion tower had been destroyed by Night Owl. He was still trying to launch a counterattack. This was the end of his strength.
"It's useless, Lex. I don't want to kill you - at least not yet." Night Owl said: "Unlike Luther in our world, you are an excellent scientist. I admire you very much, and that is what I need." A talent like yours, that’s why you’re still alive, you still have value, and you should be grateful for that.”
Night Owl's voice was low and hoarse: "Originally I planned to bring Lucius Fox from your world, but unfortunately taking him away rashly would definitely touch Batman's sensitive nerves, so I can only take him away who is relatively immune to bats." "Xia attaches great importance to you."
Of course, Luther would not be instigated by the other party. This was too low-level, but now the more nonsense Nite Owl talks about, the more beneficial it is to him, so Luther did not interrupt the other party's speech.
Instead, he deliberately induced Night Owl to continue speaking and turned to Greer next to him and said, "Dear, I don't know how you could listen to Night Owl again. To be honest, I always thought Nightwing told me that we They are the same group."
"Dick? He is a great young man, very delicious." Greer's eyes flashed red, reflecting the radiance of her skin, which was slightly obsidian like her father Darkseid's.
"But he still made a mistake... Never, ever take a woman's promise seriously, right?"
"Batman asked Dick to use his help to kill Darkseid as a bargaining chip to try to persuade Greer to work for him." Night Owl said from the side: "And at that time, Greer happened to have a little relationship with me. ... A small misunderstanding, she thought that I would regard Darkseid as an ally and abandon cooperation with her. "
Night Owl didn't say anything else. He did think about abandoning Greer. Greer did betray him and cooperate with Batman without hesitation. Night Owl even imprisoned her...
But these are nothing. In the face of important things, there are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests.
They let go of their past grudges so easily. How to do what is more beneficial to themselves is the only motivation that can drive them.
They turned over this matter very quickly, and now it's as if nothing happened.
"But I still don't understand one thing, you..." Luther wanted to continue, but his words were quickly interrupted by Ye Xiao.
"Okay, no more nonsense, Lex, I believe you have also discovered that you are trying to summon the more than 2,000 Green Lantern Corps that you and I jointly captured and then transformed by you, right?"
Night Owl said, his voice full of sarcasm.
"You must not understand that you hid this legion in my universe, and now you are trying to recruit them to protect you but there is no response at all, right?"
Even this was pointed out, and Ye Xiao was finally satisfied to see a panic expression on Luther's face.
"Yes." He said: "I didn't lie to you on that point. You were able to transform those Green Lanterns into sun-destroying cells and parasitic demons, and in these two transformations, your level is far beyond mine. "
"Even I can't skip the most basic deconstruction of the DNA of these two creatures and directly become familiar with their transformation methods. It's like being mediocre in mathematics in junior high school exams but suddenly proficient in advanced mathematics in high school."
"But the problem is, even if it is impossible for me to compete with you for control of this army, it does not mean that I cannot prevent you from controlling this army."
Night Owl said: "Using the Green Lantern Ring to create a different space to hide in? It's an old trick of the Green Lantern Corps. Even Hal in our world has mastered this trick early."
He said: "It's too simple and too careless. If it were me, I wouldn't cover my army so hastily."
(Note: Night Owl refers to the cowardly version of Hal Jordan in their world, who died in a suicide attack on the OA star under the control of Lantern No. 1 in this book)
Luther lowered his head at the victor's ridicule. He murmured in a low voice: "You are right, I am too careless and too arrogant."
"So everything is over, Lex. Be decent. After everything is over, I think we will still work together for many years." Night Owl said: "I have prepared a comfortable enough house arrest place for you, you can... "
"No, not yet."
Then Night Owl heard Luthor's voice. He frowned and immediately used the device on his arm to check whether the anti-space jumping device in the entire propulsion tower was still activated, and then it showed that everything was normal.
"I admit that I was careless this time, but fortunately I have developed a habit, a habit I developed after being disgusted by Batman once."
As Luther said this, his face darkened for the next moment.
Talking about this habit, he always remembered the feeling of being slapped in the face by Bane, who knew no difference between friend and foe. The feeling of being fooled around by Clayface was terrible.
But~
Now pinch~
puff!
"Luther" had a flat tire.
His whole body deflated like a balloon, and his whole face melted like wax. Of course, Clayface's body cannot control his clones from such a distance, so these Clayface cells are completely operated by Luthor himself, just like Batman once used Clayface to leave an empty shell for himself in place.
After being critically hit by this move, although Luther said not to do it, he quietly learned this move at some point. Even the clay-faced cells on his body were his own. Developed as a clone, not a direct gift from Batman.
"Don't think that you are the only one who can remotely control the bionic robot to visit dangerous places that are inconvenient for you to reach." Luther controlled his clone to melt and taunted loudly: "You did win a round. But you think of everyone else as a fool, and Lex Luthor doesn't die that easily."
His body has never stepped into this propulsion tower from beginning to end. Just like Night Owl's remote-controlled robot, Luther himself did not expect that this trick of Xianqi Lengzi would actually save his life and give him a second chance. Chance.
He let out the villain's standard evil laugh: "Jie Jie Jie, things don't end that way, Thomas, old friend!"
"I will be back soon, I promise, it will be the end of you by then!"
As the evil villain's speech ended, Clayface Luther fell to the ground with a bang and turned into a big pile of Clayface cells that no one could control.
Night Owl and Greer stood quietly.
"What to do? Smart guy?" Greer said, "Luthor ran away."
She seemed a little provocative and a little indifferent.
"He can't run away." Ye Xiao said in a muffled voice.
He walked to the owl computer next to the propulsion tower, and quickly entered a long list of things. He soon obtained the highest authority, and then issued orders to the owl computer.
"Help me connect with Lafleeze of Orange Lantern, Demon of Despair, Lady Styx, Alfred, and his secret society of super villains, as well as Dr. Ivo and his Amodra."
(Note: Night Owl here refers to the evil version of Alfred in their universe, the Outsider)
(Note: Lafleeze, the King of the Orange Lantern, killed all the creatures who tried to use the energy of the Orange Lantern, causing them to lose their entities and become the embodiment of the Orange Lantern energy. They became his subordinates, such a ghost army. Together with him, he becomes the Orange Lantern Corps. His personality is as greedy as the emotional symbol of the Orange Lantern, and he is a warthog-like creature with multiple fangs.)
He quickly announced a long list of names of forces. He did this in front of Greer, and he was also warning the other party not to have other ideas.
Greer's face couldn't smile this time.
Ya Mo Zhuo? Dr. Ivo? LaFleeze, the King of the Orange Lantern Corps? And the Secret Society of Super Villains?
When did they all reach an alliance with Ye Xiao and become his allies?
Greer had never heard of these people before. Night Owl had hidden many things from her, and the "unknown" was often scary and intimidating.
Night Owl is good at playing with these things, and he's almost as good at playing with fear as Batman is.
Controlling a person does not necessarily require the direct use of magic or technology, or telepathic superpowers.
Mental manipulation and fearful intimidation are also methods that can prevent others from acting rashly.
He had not put enough effort into intimidating Greer before, which caused the opponent to jump back. Ye Xiao would not make a second mistake.
did you see it? Greer, I don't blame you for what happened before, but if you still dare to play tricks now, I have so many trump cards that you can't figure out. Are you sure that none of them can be used against you?
So...obey.
"...Great Lady Styx, my ally, I have something to leave to you...Yes, hunt down Lex, he betrayed us, you have to capture him alive, this matter can only be left to you, I Don't worry, the others are just a bunch of murderers... The Demon of Despair will cooperate with you... Don't want to cooperate with the Demon of Despair? He is just an auxiliary, and you are the leader... Don't worry, I have already made arrangements. …”
"...Despair Demon, I need you to let go..."
"Dr. Ivo, the time has come for your Amozo robot to show its talents. Your robot must replace the Despair Demon to guard his tower..."
"... Lafleeze, you asked before that you don't have to be stationed in a propulsion tower like the Galaxy Puppet. I agreed to you, but now the situation has changed..."
"...No, of course I didn't break the promise. Haven't you always wanted the propulsion tower and the heart of the planet? If you want Ms. Styx to station in the propulsion tower, after everything is over, the propulsion tower you are responsible for will be It’s yours. Deal?”
"make a deal."
Ye Xiao hung up the phone expressionlessly.
"La Freeze, this greedy warthog. What's the use of his push tower? It's useless. A single push tower is just scrap metal. But he just wants to take that thing for himself. That’s all, stupid.”
Night Owl shook his head.
Then he turned around and said to Greer, who had witnessed all this: "Get ready to take action, it's time to sail the ship."
He paused, then opened his palms to the air in front of him. At this point, Night Owl's voice finally began to rise, which for a time made Greer think it was an illusion.
"Sail! Set sail! March towards a free future!"
"There is no more danger, no more crisis, the chance to escape all this dark fate... is just around the corner!"
…
…
…
"So, what's the plan?"
Darkseid asked over Batman and the telepathic channel he had set up.
Batman said such a solemn word, so the Lord of Apokolips thought he could still listen to it a little.
"A special explosive made by the Guardians of the Universe." Then he heard Batman say seriously: "But if you want to hit, you need to charge time."
If Batman said explosives, Darkseid might still have some doubts, but when he heard the Guardians of the Universe come out, Darkseid no longer had any doubts.
He knew that Batman used the dead Guardians of the Universe as grenades to throw - even if he had been hiding on Apokolips, it did not prevent him from secretly spying on what Batman did in the universe.
Darkseid himself had once clashed with the Green Lantern Corps' Oa star. How could he not notice such a big thing happening on Oa?
It was precisely because of these as a foundation that Darkseid finally made up his mind.
"How long will it take?"
He asked in a low voice.
"About two minutes, not short, but not too long." After getting Batman's exact number in telepathy, Darkseid heard Batman's voice again.
"I will use something called the Death Treasure Golden Sphere to create a golden portal behind you. This thing will start faster than the sonic boom channel you created. You must quickly jump back into the golden portal in an instant to prevent being affected by the violent explosion."
He heard Batman say: "Such an explosion can only weaken the Anti-Monitor at most. I estimate that it is difficult to really kill him."
Chen Tao was talking nonsense, and he made a solemn promise about something that did not exist. Darkseid listened attentively and memorized it.
"But even so, it is enough. We need to push the Anti-Monitor away from our universe, and then close the door to release Superboy Prime, so that he can see the Anti-Monitor before seeing us... and then bet that Superboy Prime will not come back to kill us first."
Darkseid didn't listen to the second half of this. As far as he was concerned, he either had to escape or carry out Batman's plan, and then what to do next was something he needed to consider after he got a chance to breathe.
Did he really think it was easy for Darkseid to confront the Anti-Monitor head-on now? Although he felt that the Anti-Monitor seemed a little weaker than the last time he invaded the Batman universe... This seemed to be his illusion, but no matter what, he was almost unable to hold on now.
"Okay." The Lord of Apokolips agreed to Batman's plan. He pulled himself together, and his eyes condensed into the purple Omega Judgment. This judgment attack that could send people into infinite parallel universes collided with the white rays shot by the Anti-Monitor, and then faded away, followed by a more intense wave of confrontation.
"Hah!" The rays from Darkseid's eyes were as thick as a bucket. With another head-on collision with the Anti-Monitor, the ground under their feet cracked like tofu.
"Damn Batman, how long will it take?"
"Almost."
Chen Tao responded in the telepathic link, with a look of holding back a shit on his face, while secretly estimating how much physical strength Darkseid had consumed in this head-on confrontation with the Anti-Monitor, and whether the tired Darkseid could avoid his plot.
A minute passed quietly, and Darkseid began to breathe heavily, which was almost impossible for the Lord of Apokolips.
"How long will it take?"
"84 seconds." Chen Tao said for a while, and then continued to put on a look of holding back a shit.
Darkseid collided with the Anti-Monitor again, and they grabbed their hands together, wrestling like two gorillas.
"Are you done????"
Alright, alright.
Seeing that Darkseid was a little angry, Chen Tao hurriedly said that the time was up.
And then a golden portal immediately lit up behind Darkseid.
"Great."
Darkseid immediately abandoned the confrontation with the Anti-Monitor as planned, fell backwards, and went straight through the portal. He knew that Batman was going to use his trump card, and then he could continue to execute his plan of sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight, and then...
He appeared on the face of the Anti-Monitor.
Darkseid's eyes widened: ? ? ? ? ?
The Anti-Monitor was also stunned for a moment, and then he did not hold back, and punched Darkseid in the face, hitting him all over the face. His obsidian-like face was twisted, and Darkseid's neck was bent 130 degrees, almost making people think that his head was about to fly out.
However, such injuries could not do anything to Darkseid. He barely stood up from the ground, and before he could speak, there was a loud bang.
Darkseid only felt a sharp pain behind him.
