boom!
Victor Stone was in a daze for a moment.
Eh?
He blinked.
Then he stretched out his hand to wipe his face, and saw the head of the monster holding his father's throat explode, and green demon-like blood splattered on his face as if for free.
His father fell to the ground with the monster.
"Cough...cough...Victor! I'm fine."
Dr. Silas Stone coughed and got up from the ground, but staggered down in pain.
He clutched his throat, which was red and swollen from being pinched.
Victor hugged his father in shock.
"I'm sorry, kid, ahem... I'm sorry. But I want you to know that this is this world, this dangerous world."
Dr. Stone coughed and said: "Do you call this kind of thing a monster? And I come into contact with such monsters every day, and there are many secret projects that the government cannot disclose to you."
He paused, somewhat at a loss for words:
"I'm sorry I didn't want you to play rugby, and I'm sorry I missed your rugby game, but you know, kid, we're not living in peacetime, and what we're facing now is nothing like 1914 and 1939. Years make no difference.”
"I...I just want to protect you when facing this kind of monster..."
He turned his head and looked at Batman, who was flying over with red light in his eyes, and the strong man wrapped in lightning.
Like a child who suddenly gained power, he punched a monster that almost killed him and sent it flying backwards like a top, and then cheered like "Okay!"
"I know, I know, father, I'm sorry."
Victor lowered his head.
The dozens of demons that flew out of the portal were quickly slaughtered by Shazam and Chen Tao in just ten seconds.
The demonoid that tried to escape from the door with the mother box in its arms was, of course, struck down by Chen Tao's red heat ray before it could reach the door.
Chen Tao held the mother box with one hand and dropped it to the ground.
"Good day, Dr. Stone."
Then he turned his head and nodded slightly to Victor Stone.
Silas Stone rose from the ground. He dusted off the dust and glanced at the demonoids scattered everywhere with corpses:
"Batman, I..."
"Thank you, Batman, for saving us."
Dr. Stone glanced sideways at his son, who interrupted him with excitement and had finished thanking him on his behalf, and then continued:
"Okay, it seems that my son has finished thanking me, so Batman, about..."
Chen Tao kept his expressionless face and was thinking quietly about how to persuade Amanda Waller and others not to hold the mother box in their hands forcibly after they arrived later.
Maybe the current demon-like invasion is an opportunity...
So he also said: "I..."
Buzz!
The mother box in his hand suddenly trembled.
"Whoa!" Shazam exclaimed from the side: "What the hell? Is he going to explode?"
Everyone around him was so frightened that he took two steps back.
Buzz!
The mother box trembled again, and countless blue and red energies emerged on the smooth metal square, causing a series of fine bumps.
"I think he may be about to reopen the portal, Batman, throw it out quickly." Dr. Stone backed away slowly, then turned his head and shouted to his experimental assistant: "Hurry up and track his location!"
Buzz!
Without Dr. Stone's advice, Chen Tao could also see the changes in the mother box.
He threw the Mother Box out, while Victor backed away, guarding his father.
Chen Tao stared closely at the creation of Apokolips.
On the metal cube, the dark red energy seemed to be trying to break through the suppression of the sea blue energy. Tiny lightning bolts continued to twine, flicker and then die, then gradually died.
Buzz!
Buzz!
Buzz!
The mother box kept vibrating, and the sound was more like a low roar of something through the metal than a vibrating sound.
"The fight just now isn't over yet, right?" Shazam walked to Chen Tao's side, clenching his fists, eager to try.
Gra!
The trembling metal suddenly turned over.
Chen Tao was in no mood to answer Shazam's words. He floated up and stared closely at the trembling metal block.
What could come out of it...?
Steppenwolf? If you don't know, Darkseid will just come.
How can it be? Chen Tao shook his head fiercely. If it were so easy to do, then Darkseid would have already come when the portal opened just now.
He can only send certain demons to try to take away the mother box. There must be something still restricting him.
Chen Tao stared at the blue energy of Shanghai in the mother box, and there were fewer and fewer of them.
"Don't you have an emergency safe room? Go back quickly..."
Before Chen Tao finished speaking, he saw the mother box reopening in the violent sound and light, and turned into a portal again. The next moment, countless demonoids rushed out of it in a steady stream!
"For Darkseid!"
"drink!"
Shazam rushed forward immediately.
His thunder and lightning instantly penetrated the bodies of more than a dozen demonoids. The lightning connected between the bodies of those monsters like electricity, and then electrified them so much that they fell from the sky like roasted flies. . But the next moment, more demonoids swarmed up and wrapped him up into a demonoid dumpling.
Chen Tao immediately put his hand on his communication device.
"Batman calls Nightwing, can you hear me?"
This place was originally the information provided to him by Nightwing, so how could he not participate in this operation?
Chen Tao's decision to bring Shazam here was completely impromptu. Obviously, he had prepared other countermeasures to deal with some possibilities.
For example, if an agreement could not be reached, he would have to use force to seize the mother box, thus falling out with the government and the others. Therefore, he would have to fight Metal Man, but in the end, he would let Nightwing and the Suicide Squad who were ambushing outside take it away. Use the super electromagnetic interference measures prepared in advance to beat the metal men and those big mecha guys into idiots.
Or just let the clay face ambushing the president hold the other party, his son who is still in kindergarten and nanny, and force them to sit down and negotiate...
Hahaha, but this kind of plan is basically something with a very small probability of happening. He is just prepared.
All in all, he had prepared insurance measures in advance. Although the sudden emergence of demonoids was not part of the plan, he was still able to mobilize enough combat power immediately to kill all the demonoids. .
"Batman calls Nightwing, we need support..."
"Copy that, Batman, what do we do?"
Chen Tao heard Dick Grayson's voice in his headphones. He knew that as long as he gave the order, the other party would bring the entire Suicide Squad, including strong players such as Deadshot, Killer Croc, and Poison Ivy, into the laboratory. Unless Steppenwolf or Darkseid came in person, it would only be a disaster. A near-miss contact battle.
"For...Darkseid!"
Chen Tao turned his head and saw a shadowy figure covered in heavy metal armor and with two horns. He was trying to reach the scene through the portal, but there seemed to be an invisible film that was always blocking his entry. He spent several times. Ci Li failed to squeeze in, and could only roar in anger: "Attack! Attack!"
More demonoids sprayed out from the portal as if they were free, filling the entire vast laboratory. Shazam, who had just burst out of lightning to break away from the many demonoids, was once again drowned. He made a desperate voice:
"You're still here? I haven't even sculpted my face yet!"
Chen Tao immediately said to Yeyi and the others.
"You guys immediately..."
etc.
Chen Tao looked at Future Cyborg in regular clothes and his doctor father, and his head suddenly buzzed.
He recalls Cyborg's origins in the comics.
Shouldn't Victor Stone lose an arm and a leg due to the explosion of the Mother Box and fall into near death, and then his father will use Apokolips technology to transform him into a cyborg?
Chen Tao held the mother box in his hand and fell into deep thought.
Did his arrival inadvertently trigger some sort of butterfly effect, resulting in Cyborg not being successfully born?
Chen Tao suddenly frowned.
But there was no time to think about it. He subconsciously threw the mother box in his hand to Dr. Stone. More and more demonoids rushed towards him. Chen Tao's heat vision shot out and penetrated all of a sudden. A demon-like body.
The other party struggled on the ground twice, and then jumped up again.
Chen Tao fired another shot, scorching his head.
Although the speed bullet bat's abilities are also Kryptonian, they are undoubtedly much weaker than the real Superman.
Chen Tao had already adjusted his heat vision to the maximum power. If it were Superman, this demonoid and those behind him would have been melted by this time.
He mobilized the blade of the Broken Bat, swung his knife to cut off another demonoid that rushed towards him, turned to Shazam and shouted: "Protect the Mother Box!"
"Batman, we need to go directly..." Nightwing's voice came from the headset.
"Wait a minute."
Chen Tao whispered back to them.
He and Shazam protected Stone and his son while fighting and retreating, and ran towards the back laboratory, where there were iron gates heavy enough and enough equipment to stop demonoids and...
Enough to turn Victor Stone into Cyborg like in the original plot.
If he didn't interfere.
Damn, what was I thinking?
Chen Tao shook his head. Now is not necessarily the moment when Cyborg was born. The most important thing is to get rid of all these locust-like demons first.
He turned to Silas Stone and shouted: "Is there any way to close the mother box? You have been studying it for so long, or is there any way you can allow me to successfully connect to this thing-"
Chen Tao narrowed his eyes.
The worst case scenario is to activate [Bat Brainiac]. As Brainiac's version of Batman, his computing power is infinitely close to that of the real version of Brainiac, although as an A-level Batman, he also cannot grow long. Time synchronization, but if you just close a portal...
Chen Tao cut open a charging demonoid with his backhand, and then transformed half of his arm into a shield composed of nanorobots, constantly resisting the incoming laser energy bullets.
"Together!"
He shouted to Shazam, who was fighting with dozens of demonoids. After receiving a response, his heat vision and lightning exploded at the same time, clearing a small area of demonoids in an instant, and they were able to successfully evacuate. Entered the safe house at the back.
"squeak!"
As the Thousand Jin Gate fell, a demonoid was cut off in an instant. Only the front half was left struggling and crawling on the ground, trying to raise a gun to shoot Chen Tao and his group, and then was beaten green by Shazam's thunder and lightning. Mosaic.
"I wasn't this disgusting when I was killing bugs in World of Warcraft."
He said: "Today is so exciting! It's more exciting than playing games!"
Chen Tao was in no mood to talk to the excited Billy.
He weighed the question about Cyborg over and over in his mind.
If today is the day that caused the birth of Cyborg, does he now inadvertently change the plot?
If the future Cyborg Victor Stone would not have died during the invasion of demonoids, then his father would not have loaded him with Apokolips technology, and he would not have become that half-human, half-creature of robot.
In this case, Chen Tao lacks a teammate who can directly link to the mother box!
Chen Tao has always known that he cannot completely follow the plot of the comics to deduce what is really happening in the world in front of him, but he never thought of taking the Mother Box away from Dr. Stone. He just wanted to study this dangerous thing together in advance.
He just made a special trip to link the mother box and try to obtain some results of mother box research.
This will not affect the fact that Cyborg was born due to various accidents like in the original plot, but the problem now is that the incident of Cyborg's birth may have appeared directly in front of him at this moment!
Do you want to interfere?
If he had saved Victor Stone's life from having to suffer the accident that prevented him from becoming Cyborg, wouldn't that have hurt his chances of winning?
"Batman, Batman?"
Chen Tao turned around suddenly and saw Shazam calling him repeatedly. He was so absorbed in his thoughts just now that he didn't even hear the other party's shout.
Billy pointed to the door:
"Those demonoids are knocking on the door, and I feel that there is a high chance that that piece of shit won't be able to withstand it."
"Long story short, maybe I can reopen a portal and send those monsters back."
Dr. Silas Stone's voice came from the side. He had just placed the mother box on the instrument nearby and been operating it for a while.
"The new portal will create a huge suction force, enough to suck them all..."
He spoke very quickly, but then suddenly stopped.
"Then do this, Dad, the door is about to collapse!"
Victor Stone shouted to his father, but Dr. Stone still said nothing.
"Wait, Dr. Stone, I looked at the data. If I do that..." The experimental assistant beside him looked at the mother box placed in the center of the experimental equipment, and then looked at the data on the screen.
He wiped the sweat from his head.
"If you want to open that portal, someone must take the initiative to drag the mother box and rush into the center of those demonoids. But this means... that person will also be sucked directly into the portal!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at each other.
Once the question "who should be the one to sacrifice" was raised, everyone fell silent.
Chen Tao silently stretched out his hand, and a small lump of clay-faced man's body tissue grew out of it.
He squinted.
In fact, no one needs to sacrifice. He could have constructed a puppet out of nanobots and Clayface's body tissue, just like the time he stalled for time against Luthor.
but……
Will it create a steel frame...
Damn it!
He shook his head.
What would Batman do?
What will Chen Tao do?
Would Batman really see a man about to be injured and crippled, but not do anything to help him even though he had the ability to do so?
As for Chen Tao, he can really tolerate his chances of winning...
He was still struggling, but a voice came to his ears.
"I come."
He turned his head and saw the future Cyborg, Victor Stone said in a deep voice.
I found py again! (covering her butt shyly)
Become a full-time hunter and become the Supreme Will
