dry!
desolate!
The sky full of yellow sand completely submerged the once bustling city, and even a piece of normal soil that could support plants could not be found.
Even the desert, known as the "forbidden zone of life", looks more vibrant than this land.
At least there are some plants and animals in the desert such as cacti, scorpions, snakes, spiders, gerbils, lizards, foxes, camels, etc.
But not even a single insect can be found in this severely deserted place.
If you observe with a microscope, you will find that not only are there no bugs, but even the most tenacious bacteria, viruses, fungi and other microorganisms are very few.
The reason for such a terrifying result is also very simple, that is, the earth has been completely occupied by Apokolips.
All planets captured by Apokolips will, without exception, be drained of energy and become like this, and almost all the people on them will be transformed into demon-like creatures.
Of course, if some of these people are particularly outstanding or valuable, then they may be retained to serve Darkseid in their original capacity.
To a certain extent, Apokolips' expansion model is actually very similar to that of old Phyrexia under Yawgmoth's leadership. They both maximize plunder and use the resources of the occupied areas to snowball their own growth, and then
Continue to conquer and occupy more worlds.
When the scale effect exceeds a certain critical point, the terrifying size alone is enough to crush everything.
The most typical example is that the out-of-control demon-like army from Apokolips swarmed into the Green Lantern Corps' main star and easily swallowed up the entire Green Lantern Corps.
As the maintainers of order covering a vast universe, even they are no match for the endless demonoids. The results of most other civilizations when faced with the massive invasion of demonoids can be imagined.
So in theory, as long as the three mother boxes resonate and open the sonic boom channel to connect to Apokolips, it means the game is over.
Obviously, the current earth is where demonoids have successfully opened the sonic boom channel.
In fact, among countless parallel universes and timelines, this is not the only Earth that has been captured by Apokolips, nor is it the last one.
Right now, Batman Bruce Wayne, the survivor and leader of the last resistance force, is riding in an off-road vehicle and driving quickly against the wind and sand in the sky.
He no longer looks like the powerful deterrent that frightened criminals when he controlled Gotham's night. Instead, he looks more like a mouse hiding from natural enemies. He even has a black bat armor on the outside.
He wore a wasteland-style jacket to protect him from the wind and sand, and even hung a submachine gun on his waist.
Obviously, the belief that Bruce Wayne once held has collapsed with the destruction of the world, and he is now trying his best to save the fatal mistake he made.
Soon, his car drove into a secret base hidden in the yellow sand and city ruins.
No hesitation!
Batman directly picked up the bulletproof lockbox in the car, jumped into the tunnel beneath the ground, and quickly walked through it.
After a while, he arrived at the lead-wrapped bunker hidden deepest underground.
The reason why it is wrapped in a layer of lead is that it is the only way to avoid Superman's clairvoyant eyes.
It was built deep underground to avoid being discovered by Superman's terrifying hearing when he spoke.
Although Bruce Wayne is not sure why Superman, who has been chasing him for the past two days, has disappeared, the troops under his orders are still searching, capturing and executing those who dare to resist his tyrannical rule.
What's more, the contents of this box are the last hope to kill the "God on Earth", so there must be no accidents.
After about a few seconds, he finally saw the leaders of the resistance, including the Flash and Cyborg, and placed the box on the table without saying a word.
"This is……"
The Flash obviously noticed something and immediately stared at the box with a surprised expression.
"You guessed it right. This is the last complete piece of kryptonite on Earth that can be processed into weapons. It is also our only hope of killing Clark."
Batman opened the box without saying a word and showed the emerald-green kryptonite inside to everyone present.
He knew very well that everyone who joined the resistance basically had relatives and friends who died at the hands of Superman, or Darkseid and his demon-like army, and their hearts were full of sadness and anger, and there was basically no betrayal.
possibility.
And this piece of kryptonite can greatly improve the originally low morale, and at the same time cheer up those who have become desperate.
"I think we need to use it to build a spearhead for me to pierce Superman's heart myself."
Mera, Queen of the Sea, stared at the Kryptonite with eyes flashing with the flames of hatred that could ignite the entire sea.
With the death of Neptune and the destruction of the entire Atlantis, she has lost almost everything she values, and the only thing that has supported her survival until now is revenge.
So she didn't mind sacrificing her own death for the opportunity to insert a kryptonite spear into Superman's heart with her own hands.
"No, it's too risky for you to do this.
In comparison, I think The Flash is the most suitable candidate.
Only his Speed ​​Force can seize the gap in Clark's defense.
And killing Superman is just the beginning, we also have to face Darkseid and his demon-like army from Apokolips."
Batman quickly closed the box and carefully put it into an explosion-proof safe.
Because getting this piece of kryptonite is just the beginning. Next, you have to find equipment to polish it into a weapon that can "kill gods."
Since the energy of the entire earth has been sucked up by those mysterious devices floating in the sky, energy such as electricity has completely become a scarce resource. It is definitely not easy to start cutting-edge equipment for processing kryptonite.
After all, there is only this one piece of slightly larger kryptonite left, and there is no room for error at all.
Therefore, the entire processing process must use the most advanced tools to ensure that it is foolproof.
"By the way, what has Superman been doing lately? Why don't I see him flying around in the sky patrolling as usual?" Cyborg suddenly asked.
"I don't know. He seemed to have disappeared suddenly. Could it be that there was some accident?"
The Flash touched his chin with a thoughtful expression.
But the next second...
Everyone in the underground bunker heard a strange voice ringing in their ears.
"Congratulations, you guessed it right. Clark, the Superman of your world, was sent by Darkseid to another time point slightly earlier, or it could be called a parallel universe."
"who?!"
Mera, Queen of the Sea, reacted the fastest. She immediately grabbed the trident and turned around to stab the place where the sound came from.
But in an instant, a big hand strangled her neck, and at the same time, the other hand snatched the trident and threw it to the ground.
Bang!
With the crisp sound of the weapon being dropped, this Atlantis woman with a proud figure in tight clothes was lifted up in the air, looking like a helpless little chicken.
Although she kicked her legs desperately to force the other party to let go of her, her feet hit an invisible force field wall and she couldn't get closer. She could only twist her body desperately and try to use the weight of her body to break free.
But unfortunately, all this is in vain.
No matter how much Mera struggled, the hand holding her neck remained motionless like an iron pliers. It neither continued to tighten to suffocate her or reduce the blood supply to her brain, nor did she intend to let go.
Through direct gaze at a close distance, she could clearly see the appearance of the other party, which was a young oriental face with black hair and black eyes.
Especially the two eyes, which are as dark and deep as an endless abyss that seems to suck people in.
The most important thing is that no one knows how this young man got in.
This is true even for The Flash, who has the fastest speed and reflexes.
"Who are you?"
Bruce Wayne subconsciously held the submachine gun hanging on his waist and asked, while raising his hand to signal others not to act rashly.
After all, this is a narrow secret space deep underground, not a suitable place for a fight.
What's more, Mera, Queen of the Sea, is still in the opponent's hands.
"You can call me Soth. I believe your mind should have realized that I come from another timeline or the earth in a parallel universe, right?"
Zuo Si looked at this Batman who looked like a groundhog with disillusionment with great interest, paying no attention to the sexy mermaid in his hand that was constantly twisting and struggling.
"So your world is also being invaded by Apokolips and Darkseid?"
Bruce Wayne probed carefully.
Zuo Si smiled meaningfully, pointed to the lightning ready to strike and said, "Didn't you already let him travel through time and space to send a warning to his past self, and then try to change this ruined future?"
moment!
The two parties involved immediately looked at each other, seeing shock and disbelief in each other's pupils.
To be continued...
