2194 Side Story: Fantasy Journey

No matter how suspicious Master Wayne usually was of this ‘super fan,’ he was relieved that Luke could provide strong firepower support for the operation.

He had to solve the problem at hand first before he could do anything else. That was how pragmatic Master Wayne was.

As the Batmobile approached the tower, the fight there astonished him even more.

Luke’s firepower gear had been invented a long time ago.

!!

In fact, after nanotech matured, the nanomaterial’s ability to change form and structure at will allowed for the incorporation of multiple functions.

The external add-on components lost most of their use.

After coming here, however, Luke dug out this old tech that had already been retired for over ten years.

The outer nanoarmor could be stored and released freely to protect the body. Master Wayne was already very wary of flying attacks. If a weapons system was added to the mix, he would probably lose sleep from how worried he was.

Thus, unless it was necessary, Luke didn’t want to reveal his top tech too soon.

The add-on components were technologically advanced, but couldn’t be carried around (at least, Master Wayne didn’t think so).

Even if they could be dropped from the air to be attached to the suit, the process could clearly be interrupted.

The add-on components were much easier to contend against compared with the nanosuit, which integrated offense and defense, dealt short- and long-range attacks, and which could transform at will.

Secondly, the firepower support components and the shoulder cannons did increase output frequency, and could be used in multiple modes.

At that moment, not only were the energy cannons on Luke’s shoulders firing freely, the high-energy plasma beams and vibration cannons on his arms could deftly fill in the gaps and send large groups of Parademons flying, not giving them a chance to charge into the tower in one go.

On Master Wayne’s swift approach, Luke looked like a glowing dot.

A tangle of light blue and orange energy bullets wove a splendid yet cruel battle of flesh and blood in the air — of course, it was all Parademon flesh.

20 seconds had passed since the other team members charged into the tower, but only a few dozen of the horde of Parademons which Steppenwolf had summoned back had made it past Luke’s firepower blockade.

It was unbelievable that Luke could do this in the face of at least 1,000 opponents.

Also, Master Wayne could sense that Luke was clearly holding back.

It wasn’t that he couldn’t kill the Parademons that had slipped through, but that he didn’t want to waste time on them when he had to fend off even more of them.

There was nothing wrong with Luke’s choice.

Letting a small number slip through the net in a short period of time was better than letting enough Parademons flood in en masse.

Luke was slightly relieved when the Batmobile arrived.

It was quite annoying to face so many Parademons on his own.

Master Wayne could now fill in the gaps; Batman would have no problem dealing with these small fry with his two pistols, as long as it wasn’t a hundred at a time.

They didn’t talk, but Luke consciously opened a path for Master Wayne so that the Batmobile could charge in.

Then, Master Wayne flew straight into the hole that Diana had created in the tower, not stopping for even a second outside.

However, the Batmobile started to circle the tower under the butler’s control, and the two machine guns also slowed down, only firing at the scattered Parademons that Luke had missed.

This was mainly because of its ammo.

The Batmobile wasn’t an armored truck with an ammo trunk; it had a smaller capacity, and half of the ammo had already been consumed when it charged in. At that moment, it could only provide support.

Luke wasn’t disappointed. Instead, he took the time to look into the broken tower and at the main hall down below.

Inside, Steppenwolf and the Justice League were fighting fiercely.

Diana and the other three charged in. Instead of doing the whole ‘pre-battle spiel’ like in the movies, they attacked right away. 𝑓𝔯e𝚎𝒘𝗲𝚋𝒏oѵ𝒆𝒍. c𝗼m

They had already discussed tactics in the two hours it had taken to get here.

As for exactly how each person would fight, there weren’t many requirements.

But who would attack and who would act as backup, what each person was entrusted to do, and how to make up for any mistakes, were all pre-arranged.

Luke and Master Wayne stopping the Parademons was also part of the plan — if there were too many of the Parademons, they had to be separated from their leader, Steppenwolf, so that the Justice League could besiege him.

In this plan, Luke and Master Wayne stressed the issue of ‘time.’

The two of them would only be able to hold back a certain number of Parademons.

During this time, Diana and the others had to quickly defeat and even kill Steppenwolf.

It was only a matter of time before something went wrong.

At that time, it would be hard to say who was attacking whom.

Thus, when Diana brandished her sword and shield and clashed with Steppenwolf, Arthur attacked from the other side with his trident without hesitation.

Barry didn’t take action.

This guy was too weak. In his first clash with Steppenwolf, the other party might use some special method to instantly kill him.

For example, after running some experiments with Pietro, Luke had come up with a Telekinesis ‘twine’ for capture and an Annihilation ‘mesh’ that could cut a person to pieces.

After his Mental Strength exceeded 100, he only needed to make preparations beforehand to set up these two ‘traps’ around him.

Speed wasn’t just the other party’s weapon, but also a way to get themselves killed.

Unless the other party had mental proficiency or a special technique for sensing danger, it was inevitable that they would die from running into the colorless Telekinesis twine or the Annihilation mesh.

It was like setting up thin steel wires across an F1 racetrack. How many racers could dodge that?

Besides, Pietro had been pierced with a metal pipe before, while Barry had just been hit by a stray bullet last night, which proved that speed wasn’t invincible.

A moment’s pause was enough to get them killed.

Thus, Barry could only act as a quick-moving assassin and backup player; he was only responsible for taking action in a critical moment.

...

Victor, on the other hand, was the only person who could interfere with the Mother Boxes and create an opportunity to stop them from fusing together.

At that moment, Diana and Arthur were the only two people left to attack Steppenwolf.

Steppenwolf, whose defensive dome had been blown up, was in a bad mood. The huge ax he was holding glowed red as he swung it, and it collided with the sword, shield and trident.

But after he unleashed his full strength in his fury, it was a little more than Arthur or Diana could take.

Diana and Arthur could still hold on, but they were sent flying every now and then, creating huge craters in the hall.

They were unable to take down Steppenwolf in the time Luke had bought them.

Barry simply sent dozens of Parademons flying so that they smashed into the walls.

Compared with killing people, killing Parademons was a good start — at the very least, their green blood didn’t look human at all.

The downside was that the suit was also splattered and smelled disgusting, which made Barry want to retch.

The situation finally changed with Master Wayne’s arrival.

As he glided in, he adjusted his trajectory slightly in the air and fired at Steppenwolf from the side.

...

Steppenwolf, who had just forced Diana and the others to retreat, was hit by light blue beams.
