Chapter 137 Chapter 137 The combo can't stop
Jason: "Ben can't hold out much longer. Old man, if you have any anti-Superman equipment lying around, go get it. We'll buy you some time."
Batman held the kryptonite spear in his hand: "This is all that's left."
He didn't know where these teenagers came from, or why they acted so familiar with Batman and Superman, but he had no one else to rely on at the moment.
There are differences between people, and there are differences between Kryptonians.
Even if the DNA Benjamin used was Superman's own, experience and age created an unbridgeable gap between him and Superman.
What's more, this crazy Superman has no scruples. In comparison, Benjamin has to contain his destruction on the destroyed ruins to avoid involving innocent citizens.
Theoretically, this battle would be a crushing defeat for Benjamin.
That's true if the opponent is also from a team that is not prepared for Superman.
Unfortunately, the Kryptonian in this team has a certain resistance to Kryptonite and a protection mechanism for escaping from serious injuries, and the time he can remain a Kryptonian is very limited. This means that if he loses control, his teammates can have no scruples about spraying the most Kryptonite on his forehead in the shortest possible time.
It also means that this team has far more kryptonite weapons and anti-Kryptonian devices than the Batman at the bottom who only has a Kryptonian spear in his hand.
If it were ordinary people, Superman would not be afraid even if they had a lot of Kryptonite weapons in their hands. Humans simply cannot keep up with the speed of Kryptonians. A few hot glances can nip the threat in the bud, so there is nothing to be afraid of.
But Superman never expected that the clone kid opposite him would deliberately reveal a flaw, taking advantage of his carelessness, and detonated a bomb filled with kryptonite powder in their faces. He then used his last bit of strength to grab Superman's hand that was strangling his neck, ensuring that Superman would breathe in the dust.
Superman really never dreamed that the Kryptonian boy opposite him would choose to use a kryptonite bomb to hit him in the face at close range, a move that hurts the enemy a thousand times and hurts himself a thousand times!
Where on earth did he hide the kryptonite bomb in this tights without a utility belt, and how did he manage to precisely move the bomb in front of himself and detonate it when he was being choked from behind...
Superman had no time to think about these questions. As he fell from the sky, the question he wanted to ask most was:
"Are you crazy, kid? Using Kryptonite dust in high-altitude close combat?"
The boy was too young, and clearly lacked Superman's kryptonite resistance, which he had developed from years of exposure to kryptonite. He was completely exhausted, and even if Superman used him as a cushion, he couldn't resist.
In Superman's eyes, this was a meaningless act of suicide, a completely foolish move. Not only did it cost the team their only hope of resolving the current situation, it also further angered Superman.
However, as their enemy, Superman was happy to see it happen. He adjusted his center of gravity while falling, trying to avoid the first wave of impact when landing.
Although a fall wouldn't kill him given Superman's physique, it would still hurt. So, I might as well use this opportunity to send this kid to his death.
"I see you really want to die, so I'll give you a ride."
"Forget it, man. We don't get in strangers' cars."
The blunt force from above, with its gravitational potential energy and the kinetic energy increased by the acceleration of the dive, hit Superman's head accurately. At the same time, the more intense kryptonite radiation made Superman further exhausted.
While Superman was letting go in pain, the magic boy in a red helmet and a pink magical girl skirt kicked Superman's shoulder, and with one hand, he lifted the exhausted Kryptonian boy up and quickly transferred him to his shoulder. When he fired the grappling gun into the sky, the green-glowing brass knuckles on his hand and the star staff stained with fresh blood on the strap on the inside of his left forearm were shining in the sunlight.
A green light flashed, and the weak Kryptonian boy turned into a human boy with brown hair and green eyes. He made a weak face to Superman and said, "Sorry, I have someone to answer the phone."
At the end of the fall, Superman saw the grappling gun hooked onto a pink bird-beaked wand with snow-white wings. Riding on it was a young wizard in a goose yellow skirt, who steadily caught the lifelines of his two companions.
What is this? It’s so unfair, right?
"boom!!!!!"
"You're so slow."
Benjamin, who was lifted onto the flying staff, coughed violently a few times. As long as it was not fatal, the state of the Omnitrix's life form would be shared with the host. He felt uncomfortable all over.
"If you had come any later, I would have broken his neck."
"We're already at our fastest," Li Hua said. "Could you please consider the Kryptonian's combat speed? I just did another time-stop bungee jump in mid-air. Luckily, I've been mentally scarred by the high probability of a bungee jump in this new world, so I learned how to use the grappling gun."
After making sure that the local Batman had nothing to help, Li Hua opened the [Flying] card without saying a word and rushed to the place where Benjamin and Superman were fighting with Jason. When the "Omnitrix" coordinates were closest, Li Hua opened the [Time] card without hesitation.
Even though he was doing aerial work after stopping time, Li Hua was no longer the same Li Hua he had been when he first arrived in Gotham. He had been completely transformed! He would never do something like risk-free bungee jumping again!
Because he brought Jason with him this time, Li Hua could just reach out and use the grappling gun to grab Jason who was in a frozen space next to him. After he had his footing firmly on the ground, he just had to jump down and stick a kryptonite dust bomb next to Superman's face, set it to detonate, and then use the grappling gun to get back to Jason's head who was frozen in time, so that time could start flowing again.
What happened next was very simple. While Superman was stunned by the explosion, Li Hua used the [Flying] card again to catch himself and Jason, and then flew towards the two falling Kryptonians.
They originally just planned to pick up the fallen Benjamin, and their primary goal was not to throw kryptonite at the fallen Superman.
Until they noticed that Superman began to switch positions, intending to use Benjamin as a cushion of flesh.
How can you tolerate this?
There was no need for verbal communication. The tacit understanding built up from many days of action allowed the two to act without any verbal communication.
Li Hua immediately turned the flying staff and began to dive, while Jason took the opportunity to untie Li Hua's grappling gun from his waist and pulled out the star staff from the inside of his left forearm.
As the flying stick stopped suddenly, Jason was thrown out and used their passionate combination skills and acceleration to hit the local superman's head hard.
Li Hua: "How are you now?"
The exhausted Benjamin was sitting between Jason and Li Hua, so they both quickly noticed that Benjamin had an abnormal body temperature.
Benjamin: "Not very good. I have a headache now, my whole body aches and I have no strength... I feel like I have a bad flu... cough cough!"
"Sounds like the symptoms of a Kryptonian being poisoned by kryptonite. Looks like you'll have to leave the battlefield for now, dear."
Jason, who was sitting behind Benjamin, pulled out a rope from the tactical belt around Benjamin's waist and tied Benjamin and Li Hua's waists together to prevent Li Hua from finding nothing behind him when he turned around after landing.
"Li Hua, put him in a safe area where he can get some sunlight. Once the Omnitrix buffer ends and he transforms into a Kryptonian, he can metabolize the kryptonite."
After saying that, Jason reached out and took some equipment from Li Hua and Benjamin.
Benjamin: “What did you take?”
"That's a great tool for finishing off the enemy later."
Jason fired his grappling gun at a tall building that Li Hua was passing by. After making sure it was hooked, he leaned back and fell into the dazzling sunlight, rushing towards the place where Superman fell.
When facing an opponent with a huge gap in strength, once you seize the opportunity to control the opponent, you must control him to death in one go, otherwise you will lose everything if you are not careful!
Not only Jason understood this principle, but everyone present understood it.
Before Li Hua flew far, Benjamin called him: "Just find a flat place to put me down, and then go help Jason immediately. I'll come find you when I'm better."
Benjamin knew that Li Hua wanted to move him out of the battlefield, but they had to seize this hard-won opportunity. The most important thing now was to completely control the crazy Superman on the opposite side.
"Then take care of yourself." Li Hua didn't waste any words. He threw Benjamin to an intersection, turned around and flew towards the battlefield again. Not long after flying, he heard a familiar sound of breaking air behind him.
Li Huale paused his flying staff for a moment, and the end of the staff sank. He lowered his head and said to the local Batman, who was holding a kryptonite spear in one hand and a grappling gun in the other, "If you want a ride, get on quickly and hold on tight. I'm going to speed up!"
The local Batman pressed the retraction button on his grappling gun and slid onto his wand like a dolphin leaping from the sea. "Who are you?"
"We are visitors from another world, young magical boys who were airdropped here to save the world."
Li Hua increased the speed of the flying stick to its maximum and shouted in the wind.
"I know you have a lot of questions, and I know we seem unreliable. I was once Batman, too! But the key right now is to take down that perverted Superman! He's simply the craziest Superman I've ever seen, even though I haven't seen many Supermen... but as long as you understand what I mean."
"I understand." Batman clenched the spear in his hand. He had already seen the red cape and the protagonist of this scam. "I will end this nightmare."
Li Hua and Benjamin's concerns are not unreasonable. This is not the first time that Superman in this world has been targeted by kryptonite. Over time, he has developed some resistance to kryptonite.
In addition, it was a sunny day today and they were fighting outdoors. When Jason rushed to the scene of the fallen Kryptonian in front of the convenience store, although Superman could not fly yet, he had already staggered out of the hole he had created.
Is this too much? Jason immediately threw all the kryptonite dust bombs he had taken from Li Hua and Benjamin.
Kryptonite dust works best on Kryptonians through inhalation rather than direct contact, but that's okay because Jason's kryptonite knuckles kissing Superman's cheek make up for it.
"How dare you lay hands on Bruce!"
With a loud "bang", fueled by anger and the magic girl stick buff, Jason punched Superman back into the seemingly empty convenience store, separating Superman from the sunlight.
But this move could not completely subdue Superman, nor was it enough to satisfy his anger. Jason, who no longer had any kryptonite dust bombs, simply rode on Superman and punched him in the face with his fists covered with kryptonite brass knuckles, venting his anger and fists on Superman.
"What the hell is that bullshit you're saying?"
"Bruce here trusts you so much, the people here trust you so much, what did you do, you bastard?"
At this moment, Jason hoped that what he had in his hand was not the kryptonite brass knuckles that could only cause blunt force injuries, but the spear in the hands of the local Batman.
Even if the stab didn't hit a fatal spot, the kryptonite that entered his body could immediately stop Superman's movements. Why would he still need to fight with his fists like he was doing now?
Even with the BUFF, he would get tired after running at full speed with hooks and chains and beating up the Kryptonians with all his might!
Just as Superman's first reaction was not to guard against Benjamin, a fellow Kryptonian, using Kryptonite to attack, Jason did not notice that Superman, who was beaten by him, reached out and grabbed something in the broken counter.
Jason didn't see it, but Li Hua and Batman who came over saw it.
The superman who was once so arrogant and relied on his race and the body given to him by his parents to ravage the world was lying in a dusty and dim convenience store and was beaten.
Perhaps it was fear, perhaps it was terror, but this superman actually took out a pistol from the smashed counter, just like the weak ones he looked down upon and bullied, and pointed it tremblingly at the back of the "thug's" head, hoping that the bullet could get him out of trouble.
Superman's finger was on the trigger.
