Grodd saw Batman turn into a car and speed away from the battlefield. He threw the reverse lightning on the ground, and the speed force in the reverse lightning's body had begun to be guided into his body. Just like the siphon principle of water flow, he no longer needed to grab the opponent to steal speed.
But the escaping car... Grodd just wanted the whole gorilla to catch up, but he was blocked by a wall of ice in front of him.
"Captain Cold..."
Grodd looked gloomily at Captain Cold with a weird twisted smile on his face, and said, "I don't have time to waste with you now."
He moved past Captain Cold to pursue Batman and the Flash, but he soon heard Captain Cold's suppressed rage.
"Manipulating me, fooling me like a fool for so long...in front of me, ignoring me for so long..."
Click, click, click, click, and countless frosts condensed from the ground. Grodd was surprised to find that even his body accelerated by the speed force actually began to become sluggish under such severe cold.
He was forced to turn his head suddenly and look at Captain Cold.
call!
Standing aside and smiling quietly, the beautiful weather wizard subconsciously rolled up the blizzard as he did in the past. The frost swept by Captain Cold was mixed with the blizzard, and instantly enveloped Grodd's body.
"Hehehe! Hahaha!" Captain Cold's high smile impressed Grodd deeply. Facing this group of almost savage enemies, he tried to launch mental attacks on them again, just like he had done before, but those simple attacks were all lost, and Grodd did not dare to rush in with his consciousness again. In the other party's mind, he heard Captain Cold's angry voice:
"I want to ask...do you think of me as a minion?!"
Grodd turned into a golden lightning on the spot, and his golden hair was flying in the air. Even though he was on all fours, the thunder and lightning wrapped around his body still made him look as awe-inspiring as a god and not to be underestimated.
His fist penetrated Captain Cold's body in an instant, but in an instant he realized that it was just a cover-up trick by the Mirror Master.
"The Rogues are professional when it comes to the Flash, Grodd."
He turned his head and saw countless mirror images of Captain Cold spread all over the rooftop under the control of the Mirror Master, making it completely unclear which one was the real one.
"You are no longer a member of the Rogue Gang!"
The golden glider angrily scolded his brother as he emerged from the wall next to him: "Since you almost killed all of us with that genetic recombinator!"
"But at least now the Rogue Gang and I are facing the same enemy!" Captain Leng said: "Destroying the enemy in front of us is the most important thing. The Rogue Gang never wastes time on revenge."
"Captain Cold is right!" Before the golden glider could speak, he heard his lover, Mirror Master Sam, project an image not far away from them, and then said in an extremely calm manner: "Grudd It will destroy Central City, and the Rogue Gang will never allow such a thing to happen."
He looked at the other gang members, especially Heat Wave, whose hatred for Captain Cold was about to explode.
"And the Rogue Gang still owes Batman two favors." He said extremely seriously: "For this favor, we have to get rid of Grodd."
boom!
A pillar of fire burst out of Heat Wave's chest, and Captain Cold stretched out his hands to spurt out a stream of frost at almost the same moment.
The frost and the flames collided fiercely. Just when Grodd thought that the rogue gang had collapsed and started fighting among themselves, he watched helplessly as the flames wrapped with ice rushed directly in front of him, and then triggered an earth-shattering explosion. Violent explosion.
The talking gorilla hides away in embarrassment. Is this really reasonable? Ice and fire are fused together and launched?
Thunder and lightning, typhoon, hail, blizzard...
The cooperation of the weather wizard followed closely, and countless hailstones and violent winds instantly filled the area where Grodd was standing. Grodd, who had just escaped the explosion, couldn't help but staggered by the wind.
Immediately afterwards, Grodd imitated the Flash and shook his arms rapidly, trying to replicate his move of blowing away the blizzard with the whirlwind rolled up by his arms, but the next moment his whole orangutan retreated backwards and hid. Opened the golden glider's sneak attack.
But the successive attacks finally made it impossible for Gorilla Grodd to observe the movements of everyone at the scene. As soon as he stepped back, a large lump of ice suddenly burst out from the ground. His whole body was frozen in it. The weather wizard poured a large amount of water into him within two seconds, and Captain Cold immediately sprayed out more cold air to stabilize it.
In an instant, the lump of ice turned into an iceberg, and Gorilla Grodd was frozen in it like amber.
"He stepped on a trap." Captain Leng said, "I don't believe it. Now even Bing Tuozi can come back."
He took a breath, turned to his teammates and said: "This is called teamwork, this is the gang of rogues." He said: "There is no need to wait for the Flash to come back, the matter has been solved, let's find some rope first. That talking orangutan——"
"Wait, Leonard." Then he heard the weather wizard's voice. The voice seemed to be trembling.
"Look there quickly."
Click, click, click...
Captain Cold turned his head and saw Grodd, who had been frozen into a lump of ice, breaking free from it - of course not this.
It's the sky.
There is something more attractive than Grodd in the sky.
If Chen Tao were standing here, he should be able to recognize that this is the same type of sonic blast channel of Apokolips, and then realize that it is obvious whose handiwork it is. However, the only people standing here at this time are the gangster gang.
"Evolution. Most rational thinkers have accepted this concept and regard it as factual historical proof."
Grodd dusted himself off bit by bit. The remaining frost stood next to the gangster gang, looking up at the huge sonic blast channel in the sky.
"Over time, species evolve genetically to adapt to their surrounding habitats."
He said: "This concept is not new. Darwin called it natural selection. George Mendel used the laws of inheritance to explain 21st century science and called it modern comprehensive evolution."
Captain Cold and his gang of rogues looked blankly at the sonic tunnel and saw a huge creature crawling into the human world bit by bit from the tunnel.
"What these theories have in common is that evolution is taking longer, it's a long-term process."
Grodd said:
"But there are exceptions. For example, sometimes he is like a bolt of lightning, and it happens all of a sudden."
The huge monster climbed down from the sonic tunnel, and then the rogue gang finally got a glimpse of his true face:
An extremely huge ape, dozens of meters tall.
"Then...what is that?"
Captain Cold gulped as the entire gang of rogues fell under the ape's shadow.
The giant ape landed on the rooftop with a loud sound, and his feet directly pierced the rooftop floor and inserted into the next floor.
"His name is Titano, the giant ape Titano." Captain Cold heard Grodd's introduction: "A compatriot who was launched into space by humans, but his body shape was changed by cosmic rays."
As he said this, he approached the grinning giant ape, stretched out his hand, and wrapped the golden speed force around Titano's body.
Grodd smiled evilly.
"It will soon teach you what cruelty is."
…
the other side.
The Flash sat in the back seat of Chen Tao's Batmobile, looking at the turtle man screaming in front with lingering fear.
Strands of stasis force were pulled out from the screaming turtle man who was tied in front and thrown into the car as if he were really alive, completely linking the turtle man and the car together.
Just now, he was tied up in front and screaming, but now it was someone else. The Flash, Barry Allen, finally had the opportunity to take a closer look at the car.
"You modified part of the cosmic treadmill and assembled it on this car." He studied it for a while and then said.
He watched as the wandering stasis passed over the turtle man's head, passed through a piece of his white hair in the front row of the carriage, and then flowed back to the other person's body, forming a closed loop. A small amount of stasis was retained, but he quickly abandoned the Batmobile and returned to the arms of the Turtle Man.
Then he saw Chen Tao first transforming into a clown's head on the front seat, and then with a burst of mechanical sound, he turned part of the front seat of the car into a small piece of meat, and then injected another piece of meat into it. A tube of dark green potion.
"But I still don't understand the use of this." Barry said: "These small amounts of stasis cannot bring about any essential changes, just like you did before by tying me to uh..."
Barry was a little stuck, but he continued:
"Tie me to the front of the car so you can gain a small portion of the Speed Force."
Barry wanted to continue, but was immediately overtaken by Batman:
"I know that the Speed Force I obtained is as weak as the orangutans in the Orangutan City, the hometown of Grodd where he was born, whose brains were accelerated by the Speed Force and gained super-high IQs. By the same token, it can be inferred that the stasis obtained by the same method Strength will be equally scarce."
he said.
"So why are you still...?"
Chen Tao did not directly answer Barry's words, but asked him: "If a strong man cannot lift two super heavy dumbbells, then if he asks others to help him lift them, can he lift them?"
"What?" The Flash couldn't keep up with Batman's jumping thoughts for a moment, "What does this have to do with weightlifting?"
"If a dumbbell falls and crushes someone to death, can the strongman let go first and let his teammates who are helping him lift the dumbbell to be crushed by the dumbbell instead?"
"Please say something that I can understand. Barry said: "Even if you get the stasis power as you wish..."
"Let's not talk about this for now."
Chen Tao said.
Several mechanical cables rose out of thin air from the seat where Barry was sitting. When Barry was startled, thinking that Batman was going to do something to him again, he found that these mechanical cables were just wrapped around his broken legs, and then In just a few seconds, it turned into a furry tentacle made of flesh and blood mixed with some metal parts.
"Wow."
The Flash stared at the two tentacles: "Batman, I didn't know you could do this."
"Just some low-level uses of the Red of All Beings..."
"What is the red of all living beings?"
"Don't be distracted!"
Chen Tao said: "They are only assisting you, and they are definitely not able to heal the injury quickly. You have to concentrate on mobilizing your speed force and cooperate with these tentacles to speed up your wounds and allow the broken leg to heal naturally. Grodd is still there Watching with eagerness, the matter is not over yet.”
As he said this, he also controlled more metal and flesh tentacles to climb onto the turtle man who was tied in front of the car, and began to insert rivets and metal parts into his limbs, and combined with some, it looked very evil. The tentacles replace physical healing.
While he was being treated, he took the initiative to explain to Barry: "Turtleman is too seriously injured. It would not be good if we don't give him emergency treatment now. After all, we are superheroes and we can't do things that bad guys do."
Countless nanorobots climbed onto the turtle man's body. He felt numb all over his body, and the howling in his mouth gradually stopped.
He couldn't help but be overjoyed when he looked at his body which had recovered somewhat. Free compliments immediately poured out: "Yes, you are superheroes, you have a bottom line, you are doing the right thing!"
While his eyes were rolling wildly, hiding his vicious expression behind his white hair, he kept saying disgusting flattery on his lips:
"You are quite a nice person!"
"I know that the famous Batman still has a low limit for what he can do. I apologize for thinking that you didn't have it before."
"It's okay, it's okay." Chen Tao shook his head and murmured in a low voice: "Mainly, I'm afraid that I'll use you two as tools and kill them by using too much force..."
"Hmm..." Barry blinked beside him, "Wait, what did you just say?"
"It's nothing. I'm saying that whether it's a teammate or an enemy, life is the most important -"
"Click, click, click, click, click..."
Before Chen Tao finished speaking, the angry voice of the Mirror Master came from the vehicle communication channel.
"Batman, where are you? You can't let the Rogue Gang face Grodd alone! Damn it, where did this guy get such a big one and so fast-hahahahaha!"
Mirror Master's words were followed by two bursts of laughter. This was a small side effect of the Joker's mind being connected to their brains to protect them.
There was a rumble, a loud noise came from the other side of the communication channel, and the sound of the mirror being trampled into dust.
Barry and Chen Tao looked at each other.
"Hold on just a little longer! Just a little longer!" He shouted loudly into the communication channel, and then quickly glanced at the half-dead turtle man in front of him.
The opponent's limbs now have a slightly human appearance thanks to the metal spirit's skeleton and the redness of all living beings' flesh and blood repair.
Chen Tao estimated the time in his mind.
"Hold on for another two minutes. I'll be almost ready in two minutes."
He said loudly to the Mirror Master: "No matter what, you have to survive two minutes!"
I found my strength again!
