Over the Indian Ocean, the huge aircraft moved at high speed outside the atmosphere at a speed close to Mach 30. It looked like a steel behemoth supported by a tripod, and its entire body exuded a rich metallic sci-fi texture.
World engine!
The so-called world engine is actually the technical product of the planetary transformation project.
During the prosperity of Krypton, the military occupied high-quality planets one after another, plundered resources and served as outposts. They used this technology to transform the outposts to look like Krypton, making them suitable for Kryptonians to survive.
On the other side of the earth, over the metropolis, a fiery red meteorite broke through the atmosphere and slowly slowed down when it was about to land. The second world engine showed its ferocious form.
The air force base was in chaos. After receiving the anonymously transmitted information, the military immediately organized a task force and contacted experts from various countries to seek technical assistance.
The intelligence sent by Bruce was very detailed, and experts quickly successfully built a model to explain the impending disaster to the officials.
When the two world engines in the northern and southern hemispheres are calibrated, they will simultaneously release energy to form an exchange cycle, thereby increasing the weight of the earth and shielding the atmosphere with particulate matter.
By then, the landscape and atmosphere will become extremely strange, and humans will simply not be able to survive in this environment.
Moreover, once the two world engines are successfully connected, an invisible defense similar to a gravity field will be created in the surrounding area. It is tantamount to wishful thinking to stop the metropolis without destroying it.
In other words, the only way to avoid disaster is to destroy one of the two world engines before starting, and the other...
You can consider staying and studying!
The commander of the air force base made a decisive decision and ordered a squadron of 24 F-35A fighter jets to rush over the metropolis to destroy the world engine before it landed.
Time is short, and they are beyond their reach in the southern hemisphere, but the northern hemisphere, especially the skies over the territory of the US empire, must be firmly defended, even if they are aliens, they must take it down.
The mighty squadron began to intercept in the air, but the effect was not very satisfactory. Not one of the 24 F-35s was left, and all of them were attacked.
First of all, the hell missiles mounted on the fighter jets could not break through the energy rain shield. Secondly, before the second attack, they were locked by the Kryptonian spacecraft, and their collective tour turned into fireworks.
24 F-35s, this wave of fireworks is extremely expensive, even Batman would not dare to do so much at once.
Seeing a series of flashes of red on the big screen, the general commanding the operation turned pale. He gritted his teeth and asked when the aircraft carrier formation would be able to provide assistance. The answer he got was: soon, wait a moment.
The general also wanted to wait, but what he lacked most now was time. The Kryptonians would not give him a chance to organize a second attack.
"Sir, you'd better take a look at this..." The liaison officer tapped on the keyboard and switched the aerial footage taken by the drone to the big screen.
The picture was clear frame by frame, and I could see a few strange people in colorful clothes standing on a building.
What are these people doing together, blowing up Metropolis?
The command room suddenly screamed again and again. The general's eyes twitched and he subconsciously asked: "What is the situation of the evacuation of the people in the metropolis? What stage has it reached?"
"Sir, it hasn't started yet."
"..."
…
Upstairs, Russell, with Barry's help, quickly put on the enhanced version of the Deathstroke Armor.
Diana looked at the World Engine slowly falling in the sky, and then looked at Russell and Bruce who were wearing battle suits, and didn't know what to say.
She understood that Batman changed his costume. After all, he was an ordinary person and needed equipment to fight the Kryptonians. Why would Russell cause trouble with him?
The whole world knows that he has wings under his armor, so who are you fooling by covering him so tightly?
Oh, the aliens don’t know yet!
Diana was even more speechless when she thought about it. Angels wearing armor and fighting aliens, what kind of operation is this?
"Russell, this outfit is really cool, can you make me one too?"
Barry's eyes flickered back and forth between Russell and Bruce, his mouth watering with envy. A boy of his age has about zero resistance to mechas.
"It's easy to say. One day when I'm free, I'll help you put it together."
"Then when you are free, I will go to Gotham to find you."
"It depends on the situation. I'll call you when I have time."
"Are you lying to me?"
"If you think so, forget it." Russell pouted, I lied to you with good intentions, why don't you believe me?
There were only four people on the tall building. Clark and Hal were not there. The two went to the Indian Ocean with the task of destroying another World Engine.
To be honest, in Russell's opinion, the scene was much more harmonious without one of the Big Three of the Justice League being present.
According to the setting in the comics, Clark, Bruce, and Diana together form a perfect equilateral triangle.
Batman is the lover/rival of Superman and Wonder Woman, Superman is the lover/rival of Batman and Wonder Woman, and Wonder Woman is the lover/rival of Superman and Batman!
If the three of them lived in the same dormitory, they would be able to create four chat groups, and their relationship would be so complicated that it is incomprehensible.
Even when they stood together, they felt that their whole bodies were twisted, and everyone looked like a light bulb.
In the sky, the World Engine was close to the ground, casting a large shadow. Bruce, who had been observing carefully, said: "Russell, can your armor break through the energy defense shield? If not, take it off quickly, don't make fun of people's lives.
.”
"Don't worry, as long as you can lure away the Kryptonians nearby and give me room to exert my full strength, I promise to turn the big machine in the sky into incombustible garbage."
Russell was full of confidence, so why would he rather equip Genos' character card and research it than use it in battle?
In order to avoid the sad fate of "getting the most money, pretending to be the most aggressive, and getting the most vicious beating", as long as there is no character card, the output and destructive power of Genos's attack skills alone can be considerable.
"Seize the opportunity!"
Bruce nodded lightly when he heard this: "Diana, let's go up and distract the Kryptonian soldiers to buy him time and opportunities."
"no problem!"
Diana pulled out the sword from her back and held the shield tightly with her other hand, her eyes filled with fighting intent.
Although the Amazons are all women, they are a famous fighting race. Of course, all members are prone to violence, and Diana is no exception. The female man has long wanted to fight with all his strength.
"Barry, I'll leave the ground to you."
"ok!"
Barry swallowed and nodded in agreement. The Flash was just starting out, and his heart was on edge, fearing that he would suddenly fall down while running.
In the past, when he put on a tight suit and fought with bad guys, he would run over to them, give them a hard push in the back, and then run away. Today was the first time that he fought in the strict sense.
Diana jumped up and flew straight up into the sky. Bruce's suit turned on its thrusters and flew side by side with her left and right.
It was obvious that Barry was very nervous. Russell patted him on the back: "Don't be nervous. It doesn't matter if you have no combat experience. Don't think about anything. You just need to run faster than the opponent."
"that's all?"
"Barry, if you really don't know what to do, just use your skills and save a few more people!"
After speaking, the armor on Russell's back, palms and soles turned on the propellers and soared into the sky with a roar.
…
At high altitude, the spacecraft detected the approaching traces of the three Russells and immediately intercepted the fire. Due to the size and agility of the three, all the intercepted fire failed.
General Zod led four Kryptonian soldiers to the northern hemisphere. While protecting the world engine, they also captured Clark, who had the central book hidden in his body.
Operations in the northern hemisphere were entirely in charge of Adjutant Fiora, who did not take notice of the abnormal situation, but still sent three Kryptonian soldiers to intercept out of caution.
The Kryptonian soldiers were dressed in jet black armor, with their whole bodies covered tightly. They had already adapted to the Earth's atmosphere, and they did not wear helmets and respirators.
Jumping out of the hatch, the three Kryptonian soldiers rushed towards their respective targets. Since the day they were born, their genes have been engraved with the iron-blooded ruthlessness of warriors. They kill decisively in battle without saying any unnecessary nonsense.
The physical performance of Bruce's Anti-Deathstroke Armor is explosive, and its speed and strength are stronger than those of the Kryptonian soldiers on the opposite side. It is only slightly inferior in agility, and the laser sword on his belt has been repeatedly avoided by the Kryptonian soldiers.
But this is all an illusion!
In the eyes of outsiders, Bruce may have lacked experience in aerial combat, which is why his attacks failed again and again. In fact, he did not attack with all his strength, showing the enemy that he was weak and seeking an opportunity to kill with one blow.
Moreover, his main purpose is not to fight, but to fight Kryptonian soldiers to collect data.
Diana is dressed in divine attire, and her shield and sword are all artifact-level. Whether it is fighting ability or resistance to beating, she is far more powerful than the Kryptonian soldiers. She can overwhelm the opponent when they come face to face.
The long sword flew around, piercing the black armor of the Kryptonian soldier several times. Depending on the situation, it wouldn't take long for the opponent to be killed by the sword.
Russell's performance was mediocre, avoiding the rampage of the Kryptonian soldiers. The thrusters on his back and shoulder armor were turned on, and red fire erupted from his palms. He spun half a circle in mid-air and flew towards Diana.
After two simple battles, he could judge the general combat effectiveness of the Kryptonian soldiers. They were both Kryptonians, but there was a big gap compared to Clark.
The Kryptonian soldier didn't think much, and accelerated his body towards Russell. Unexpectedly, when he passed by Diana, he was hit by a flying shield.
Diana had adapted to the intensity of the Kryptonian soldiers' attacks, dragging them one after another without any problem. Russell didn't even look at her. She stood in front of the huge world engine, holding her arms flat and making fists with ten fingers.
Amidst the sound of mechanical deformation, all the mechanisms on the arm armor and shoulder armor were opened. Long guns and short cannons were densely packed, as if they believed in the multi-turret god. Under the aim of the fire control system, the red light like a soldering iron became brighter and brighter.
The energy is filled and the power is fully activated!
"Spiral Incinerator!!"
A dazzling red light suddenly erupted, and the air around Russell was distorted by the high temperature. A golden-red pillar of hot light shot out from his hand, and instantly bombarded the energy defense shield of the world engine.
