Chapter 573: Force the Steppenwolf back
On the fighter plane, Batman old Bruce Wayne's face was extremely cold, like frost that has not melted for thousands of years.
On the computer screen next to him, a damage alarm also appeared on the back of Red Robin's suit portrait, and the device used to monitor Red Robin's heartbeat and heart rate was also damaged.
At this time, he couldn't determine Red Robin's status at all, let alone whether he was still alive.
With a gloomy face full of wrinkles, old Bruce Wayne gritted his teeth, controlled the weapon system with both hands and kept tilting the firepower towards Steppenwolf, as if he wanted to vent his inner anger.
Chug tug tug tug! ! !
The rapid fire continued to hit Steppenwolf's body, covering the entire two-meter area around him. The ground of the hard wall was all blasted out with craters by bullets. Steppenwolf also raised his hands to resist and took two steps back.
It is difficult for mortal weapons to cause an effective attack on the New God, let alone break the armor on Steppenwolf. At this time, Steppenwolf just raised his hand to block his face, not paying attention to the opponent's attack at all. .
The reason why Steppenwolf covered his face was not because he was afraid of bullets hitting his unprotected face, but because the slanting firelight was too bright, making him unable to open his eyes.
After feeling the opponent's attack personally, Steppenwolf smiled coldly. The weapon hitting him had no effect at all. It seemed that he had overestimated human beings.
Originally, when he saw that the earth was now ruled by humans, he thought that humans were more powerful than Atlantis and Paradise Island combined. But now it seems that he was overly worried.
Thinking of this, Steppenwolf suddenly clenched the giant ax in his hand. After bending his knees to gather strength, he jumped up high with a roar and rushed towards the Bat fighter in the face of the incoming bullets.
Seeing this, Batman frowned slightly, and then quickly turned the steering wheel, trying to avoid Steppenwolf's surprise attack.
But the opponent's speed was too fast. Before the Bat-fighter could react, Steppenwolf pounced directly on the cab glass in front of Batman.
Now looking at Steppenwolf at close range, Batman raised his head and looked at it with cold eyes. He knew very well that this solid bulletproof glass could not stop this monster.
With his feet tightly clamped on the Bat Fighter, his body was fixed. Steppenwolf immediately grasped the giant ax in both hands, holding it high and preparing to strike at the human who was sneaking up on him.
But just when Steppenwolf felt that he had a chance to win, he suddenly noticed a sneer on the lips of the human in front of him.
As soon as his eyes moved, Steppenwolf discovered that a piece of metal containing strange energy emerged from the top of the Bat Fighter, and flashed an electric light as thick as a thumb.
The light flashed and quickly dissipated in the air.
Steppenwolf didn't understand what the other party was doing, but he felt the tingling feeling in his body reappeared.
Looking at the black clouds billowing around him, Steppenwolf knew the opponent's plan almost instantly. This was not a weapon at all, but a special lightning device.
If this thing is not so effective on the ground, but it is high in the sky, the other party is obviously waiting for him to take the initiative to deliver it to the door.
Without any hesitation, Batman pressed the release button, and then the seat beneath him split open, and Batman himself was thrown out of the cab by the airflow.
Seeing the human slip away from his eyes, Steppenwolf quickly prepared to leave the Batfighter, but it was too late to leave at this time.
I saw bursts of dim light in the black clouds. Just when Steppenwolf had just taken action, several huge thunderbolts crashed down like heavenly punishment. Under the influence of the eternal metal, they were even more powerful, shooting directly from all directions. Attacks from all directions.
Without any chance of escape, Steppenwolf was covered in a sea of thunder.
The sky was as bright as day for a moment, and the loud explosion directly shattered all the glass in the area below. The terrifying power even made many people feel their heartbeats slow down.
High in the sky, a black shadow came towards the ground like a shooting star. Just when it was about to hit the ground, the figure suddenly spread its wings and made a whistling sound.
If someone looks closely, they can see that they are not wings at all, but a black cloak that looks like wings.
The black figure was gliding like a hunting bat. After determining the specific location, it directly grabbed the destination with a grappling gun. Then the rope suddenly retracted, and the whole person landed steadily on the ground.
Without the thought to put away his hook, Batman casually threw the grapple gun aside and quickly ran to Red Robin's side.
"Batman" saw the person coming, and Dr. Silas had mixed feelings. On the one hand, he was glad that the hero finally took action, but on the other hand, he was very worried about Red Robin's situation at the moment.
Batman ignored Silas. He knelt down and reached out to check Red Robin's heart pulse. He was slightly relieved when he saw that the other person was still alive.
Fortunately, fortunately, I caught up.
Batman took out two needles from his arms and plunged them directly into Red Robin's body without saying a word. For the current plan, the most important thing is to save Tim's life first.
"Is that thing the mother box?" Batman asked while injecting.
Hearing this, Dr. Silas was stunned for a moment, then nodded quickly. "Yes, this is it. The monster is here for this thing. We must not let this thing be taken away by him."
"Um"
Batman's eyes stayed on Red Robin from beginning to end. He groaned, not sure if he was answering.
Looking at Red Robin who had fallen into a coma, Batman's face was livid. The scene in his dream came to mind again. The scene of Tim being crucified in Wayne Castle was still fresh in his memory.
Slowly clenching his fists, Batman felt an uncontrollable anger and powerlessness filling his body.
At this moment, Dr. Silas' panicked voice sounded from the side.
"Batman! Then, that monster is here again!"
Dr. Silas also saw Batman's method just now. He did not expect that Batman could trigger such a terrifying power of thunder. What made him even more unexpected was that the monster was not dead yet.
When Batman heard this, he turned slightly and saw a huge figure walking towards him.
That figure was none other than Steppenwolf, but he was no better at this moment. Black smoke was visible on his armor, and at the same time, cracks appeared on the giant ax in his hand.
Obviously, even Steppenwolf didn't get any benefit at that moment.
"Batman, what should we do?" Dr. Silas stood up holding the Mother Box and looked at Steppenwolf with vigilance.
He knows the details of Batman. This guy is basically a human being and does not have the powerful fighting power of the extraordinary beings in the Justice Society.
But Batman didn't move, just half-crouched, staring coldly at Steppenwolf in the distance.
Steppenwolf stopped and stood still, his eyes filled with uncontrollable killing intent.
"Human. You're fine."
Inserting the giant ax with cracks in his hand into the ground, Steppenwolf was extremely angry at the human in front of him who not only hurt himself, but also destroyed his weapon.
buzz buzz
With the harsh sound of wasps flapping their wings, dozens of demonoids flew to Steppenwolf's side, also surrounding Batman, Dr. Silas and others.
"I admit that you are a bit calculating, but you have to know that in the face of real strength, these little cleverness will not be able to do anything."
After hearing these words, Batman finally took action.
"Yeah?"
Batman stood up slowly, took two steps forward, stood in front of Dr. Silas and Red Robin, and calmly stared at Steppenwolf opposite.
"Then let us see what real strength is."
'you'?
Steppenwolf narrowed his eyes.
As soon as Batman finished speaking, a figure jumped from a high altitude and hit the ground heavily, leaving a pair of footprints on the already shattered rock.
Immediately, the man stood up, pulled out his sword from his waist, and stood with Batman. This man was Hippolyta who came with Batman.
At the same time, in just a blink of an eye, a scarlet shadow appeared next to Batman. Except for old Bruce Wayne, everyone present had no idea when this guy appeared.
Even Steppenwolf could only vaguely see a trace of the teleportation-like ability.
"Am I late?" Flash Barry Allen asked softly. Then he saw the seriously injured and dying Red Robin, and his eyes immediately changed.
In fact, the Flash had already arrived. When Batman contacted him, he rushed all the way from Central City.
Since he did not explain clearly what happened, he was rescuing the injured policemen and some scientific researchers who had not yet escaped from the periphery, and did not directly participate in the battle.
Batman didn't answer the Flash's question. He just looked at Steppenwolf, with complicated emotions flashing in his eyes.
Immediately afterwards, a stream of light suddenly appeared out of thin air. Behind Batman, on top of the half-collapsed dangerous building of the Star Laboratory, a huge Talisman of Life appeared.
Also appearing together were several beings wearing different uniforms. It was the heroes of the Justice Association who walked out of the portal one by one under the leadership of Time Man.
After just a few seconds of looking at it, the human in front of him directly summoned such a large group of people, and Steppenwolf's expression also changed.
He was not worried that he would be defeated by these people with his fighting power, but he felt some inexplicable weird energy from some of these people.
As a strategist and general, Steppenwolf is not ready to go head-to-head with these guys without being sure of anything.
Especially when he has been injured and the weapon in his hand has been damaged.
After a moment of silence, a faint blue transmission channel suddenly projected down from above Steppenwolf's head.
"Compared with other worlds, you are quite interesting. Let me leave this mother box here for now. Next time, we won't make such a fuss."
After saying this, the figure of Steppenwolf and the surrounding demons disappeared from everyone's sight in an instant.
Only the giant ax that was deeply embedded in the rock was left on the ground, still reflecting the faint light in the night.
