I have my own way.
Pressing a button revealed a huge metal box flashing green light on the screen. It was a pulse bomb mixed with high-purity kryptonite powder, powerful enough to destroy everything within a kilometer radius. Even Kryptonians were not immune to kryptonite.
Alfred gave a wry smile.
"The pulse bomb is still in the testing phase and its effectiveness is very unstable. Based on intelligence, it is speculated that Superman is likely being held captive at a missile base. If you detonate the bomb, he will also die."
Bruce was silent for a moment, staring intently.
"This is the only way."
After formulating the plan, Bruce immediately put it into action: first, he spent tens of millions of dollars to buy land near the canyon, then hired a construction team to build a so-called nature reserve, while secretly setting up layers of traps.
One trap after another was set for a clone of Superman, but he didn't notice that just as he was about to take action, another group of people appeared.
A circular spaceship with a diameter of one kilometer!
Aliens? Or Lex Rudd?
Bruce sensed something was wrong and was about to leave when suddenly a strange voice rang in his mind.
"Hello, friends from Gotham City."
"who are you?"
You can call me Martian Hunter or Ron.
Bruce raised an eyebrow slightly. Martian Manhunter was one of the six superheroes of the Battle of Metropolis, yet he was here. Perhaps it was because of Lex Luthor?
"You guessed right, we're here for the same reason you are."
Bruce: "..."
The other person can read his mind.
The Martian manhunter didn't provoke him further, but instead got straight to the point and made his demands.
"Superman is being held captive in an underground base, and we need to rescue him. If possible, please cooperate with us."
"Who are you all?"
I'm not in a position to answer that question right now.
Bruce thought for a moment, then changed direction and left the block. The situation had changed; fighting in this situation was irrational, and he didn't trust these six superheroes.
Watching the black-clad warrior's departing figure, Barry couldn't help but say.
"That's... Batman?"
Linda said, trembling, "Who else could it be but him?"
How did he get here?
Xu Fu explained, "The most needed thing for research and experimental bases is funding. Lex Luthor's funding mainly comes from two sources: one is the military and the Senate, and the other is the profit from selling the pirate power armor. If I'm not mistaken, Batman is following suit."
Barry nodded in understanding; although he didn't know what had happened, it sounded incredible.
"Ignore him, Ava, get him out of here!"
The main cannon beneath the yacht gleamed with a sea-blue light, and countless free points of light converged towards the center, forming a massive energy cluster.
Give you
A blue energy pillar shot through the air and slammed heavily onto the hill, causing the ground to shake violently and dust to fly up and scatter, which took a long time to dissipate.
The hill disappeared, and a hole more than ten meters wide appeared in the ground.
Xu Fu turned on speakerphone.
"Mr. Luther, would you be willing to come out and see me?"
A dozen seconds later, the ground shook violently, the sides of the canyon collapsed, and a spaceship resembling a beetle shell burst out of the soil and hovered in the air.
Lex Luthor's projection appeared above the spaceship, his large bald head as conspicuous as ever.
You were two days later than I expected.
Xu Fu shrugged: "You've left me with too many questions; my head is already aching."
“Only a fool would believe these words, Xu Fu-Xiao. I underestimated you. You are far more insidious than I imagined. You manipulate politics, the military, and public opinion. You have connections in both the legitimate and criminal worlds. You even control the president. You collude with officials and businessmen, embezzling national interests to expand your own power. In just two years, you have turned Tesla and ShowMe into world-class companies.”
Luther chuckled coldly: "A few years ago, many people said I was a heartless businessman, a capitalist without any bottom line, but compared to you, I couldn't be any better."
"Xu Fu-Xiao, you are the most insidious and despicable person."
As soon as the words were spoken, Diana and Barry Allen's expressions changed, and Batman in the distance narrowed his eyes, coldly looking in that direction.
The atmosphere was a bit stiff.
Linda opened her mouth, wanting to object, but didn't know how to start.
Xu Fu burst into laughter and stretched his neck as he spoke.
“Mr. Luther, am I as sinister as you say? I do come from the Hongmen, have a Mafia background, have saved the president’s life, and have a close relationship with the president.”
"However, they have nothing to do with Tesla or ShowMe. Those two companies have been able to develop to where they are today because of technology far ahead of our time, especially the groundbreaking powered armor, which laid a solid foundation for humanity's journey into space. It's a pity that you ruined such a great opportunity."
Chapter 1468 Blue Beetle Swarm
Lex Luther's goal was to incite conflict and divide the people, and Xu Fu naturally couldn't let him succeed.
"I originally wanted to create power armor to improve the level of human civilization and provide some protection for the police. I succeeded. I did it. Because of the police power armor, the crime rate in big cities dropped significantly. And then you appeared."
"They copied Tesla's core technology, nominally cooperated with the CIA, but secretly cooperated with the Assassin's Guild. The three parties cooperated to manufacture pirate power armor. The armor in the hands of gangsters, terrorists, and drug dealers were all provided by you."
“Mr. Luther, if you don’t mind answering this question, why did you do this? Is it to take revenge on me? Or... to take revenge on the world?”
One sentence immediately turned the tide, and everyone's attention was focused on the Zhiyuan Gang's ship, waiting for the reaction of the people inside.
Luther snorted.
"Xu Fu-Xiao, you're still as good at sophistry as ever. The core technology comes from Tesla, and the problem lies within your company. What does it have to do with me? It's too presumptuous of you to pin the blame on me."
Xu Fu sighed deeply: "We've come this far, what's there to be afraid to admit? I know everything you've done, and Batman knows just as well that lying is useless; it will only make others look down on you."
"Enough with the nonsense. Since you're here, stay."
One after another, figures leaped out of the hole and hovered in the air. The first thirty people had the same faces and bodies—they were Clark's clones of Superman. The fifteen behemoths behind them had purplish-brown skin and abnormally large bodies, their ugly appearances covered with various tumors, giving them a terrifying and violent aura.
Parasite Superman
While at sea, he used the Thunder Amplification Technique to condense a rogue cloud, which took him more than ten minutes to deal with the three-headed hippopotamus. The vitality and defense of this beast were terrifyingly strong.
Barry wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said in a low voice.
It seems we are short-handed.
Thirty clones, fifteen behemoths, a total of forty-five warriors, while we only have four and a half (Barry counts as half, excluding Batman). Four and a half against forty-five, how can we fight?
Linda said in a deep voice, "The clones' weakness is their heads. There is a worm egg in their brains. If you destroy the worm egg, they will lose consciousness. As for the parasitic demon superman..." She paused, her expression becoming extremely serious.
"Be careful, he's tough to deal with."
Both Daiyu and Rongen possess exceptional talents. Linda is a strong-willed person and rarely uses the word "difficult" to describe her opponents, but she has said it now, which shows that Hippo's strength far exceeds expectations.
Lex Luthor laughed excitedly and said
"Xu Fu-Xiao, I've waited a long time for this day. None of you are leaving here."
"Take it."
At a command, clones and hippos rushed toward the yacht from all directions.
Xu Fu stared at him.
"Guys, help me loot for seven minutes!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he leaped up and flew into the sky.
Barry activated his floating platform, stomped his foot in mid-air, and transformed into an incredibly swift bolt of lightning, hurtling through the air at breakneck speed. His armor contained kryptonite, which frequently struck the surrounding clones, some of whom even fell from the sky.
Martian Manhunter used his telekinesis to hold off Behemoth; as for the clone, it was merely a shell without self-awareness.
Linda and Diana transformed into arrows and charged into the crowd. They wore specially made armor, impervious to the devouring power of the demonic insects. Diana's armor contained kryptonite, which caused clones and behemoths to lose their power when they approached them. Thanks to this advantage, they eliminated four opponents in the blink of an eye.
Linda and "Mars Manhunter" seized the opportunity to launch an attack, and the two quickly slaughtered six enemies.
Kryptonite is extremely harmful to clones; they lose their abilities and become ordinary people as soon as they get close to a clone. In battles of this scale, ordinary people are just cannon fodder.
"Of course!"
Lex Luthor clenched his fist: he used Kryptonite against Superman, something Xu Fu-Xiao would never have imagined, and
Don't assume this will bring victory.
The spaceship's hatch opened, and three colossal beasts clad in strange armor flew out. They reacted with incredible speed and seemed to possess a strong sense of self: one pounced on Diana, its right paw transforming into a hammer, knocking her to the ground; another pounced on Linda, its arms transforming into energy hammers that vibrated at an incredible speed, shattering the tigress's shadow with a single blow and sending her flying; the last one unleashed a beam of high-temperature light, aimed directly at Martian Hunter.
The three attacks directly destroyed everyone's attack.
Linda lowered her head, staring at the hippo's dark blue armor. The armor had a unique design, with a pair of large, round eyes, flat beaks extending outwards from both sides, a pair of thin wings on its back, and sharp barbs on its shoulders, wrists, and back. From a distance, it looked like a thick and thin blue beetle.

"A swarm of blue worms?"
"how is this possible?"
