What's wrong with Superman's brother wanting to be Homelander?

Chapter 116 Superman Like Wild Grass

Without any warning, Diana, who was smiling just a second ago, suddenly reached out and grabbed Clark's collar.

However, although Wonder Woman's movements were sudden and fast, almost at the millisecond level, she was still detected by Superman's almost superhuman dynamic super vision.

You should know that in the later stages of this ability, even the Flash would have to obediently tell his dad to run faster, kid, because he can still see things clearly.

"Bang!"

The dull thud sounded like thunder in spring.

Clark was forced to intervene and successfully blocked Wonder Woman's grab at his collar.

At the same time, Superman grabbed Diana with his backhand and then exerted force with both arms.

He tossed Wonder Woman into a pile of cardboard boxes in the corner with the same practiced ease as throwing a rugby ball in school.

The kind-hearted Superman was worried that he might accidentally kill Wonder Woman by dropping her onto a cardboard box; he figured that if she fell on a cardboard box, she would only feel a little pain.

"Whoosh!"

However, in mid-air, Wonder Woman somehow defied the laws of physics, turning her parabolic descent into a sharp arc. This completely exceeded the limits of human mechanics, causing Kela Ke's pupils to shrink slightly.

"Listen, I don't want to cause trouble for myself, and I don't want to have any conflicts with anyone. Whatever you want to do, that's enough, okay? Otherwise, I really won't be polite!"

Clark stretched out one hand, palm facing outward, his expression somewhat displeased.

Diana didn't speak, but stared at Clark with a serious expression.

From the time she could remember, she learned various military formations, weaponry, and hand-to-hand combat systems under the guidance of Antiope and others.

As the most powerful warrior on Amazon Paradise Island, she is proficient in the complete Amazonian killing techniques and ancient battlefield tactics, and her control over her body is almost perfect.

In her tentative exchange just now, she sensed that the young man's physique and strength were terrifying, and in some ways, he was even no weaker than herself.

But she's a professional god-killer.

And this person turned out to be that man's younger brother!

No wonder Kent kept stopping Hawkman and his crew.

"At least I succeeded in verifying it."

Wonder Woman looked at Clark and suddenly spoke.

"Verify what?" Clark asked, puzzled.

"Neither of you brothers are ordinary people."

"What's in it for you?"

"Doing things shouldn't necessarily be based on whether there are benefits or not."

"However, I am puzzled as to why your parents were unaware of this. But there is no denying that they are a very good couple, and to be honest, I don't want you, as their hopes and future, to go down a path of no return."

Clark frowned and said, "Ms. Diana, what gives you the right to so easily judge others?"

"I never define a person, I just tell the truth."

As Diana's voice faded, the demigod blood within her began to boil completely.

She was instantly enveloped by an indomitable fighting spirit and aura, her back straight, like a female war goddess emerging from a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood.

That was just a tentative move.

She had deliberately suppressed the Amazonian divine power within her, but now she was going to unleash her full power.

Because she felt that things might have developed in a way that was beyond her expectations.

Before they left Washington, Lucas was also officially designated as the most dangerous supervillain of the year.

Codenamed King of the Night, its classification level and threat level are both Omega-level.

The operation is personally and fully overseen by Amanda Waller, the director outside the Bureau of Transhuman Research, who can, if necessary, mobilize the military and any conventional military weapons to suppress it.

This is also the most important reason why she put aside her personal grudges against Amanda and made a special trip to come here.

The other party may not know who the "King of the Night" is right now, but given the size of the state apparatus, it should be only a matter of time.

As long as Lucas continues to commit crimes and carry out his plans, Amanda will eventually discover his true identity.

That African American woman would absolutely not tolerate the existence of any power beyond the control of the state.

Diana was acutely aware of this.

As representatives of the state apparatus, what the other party upholds is never simply justice or order, but "control" itself.

In her view, regardless of whether Lucas's motives are good or evil, as long as his power operates outside the government's regulatory system, he poses a potential threat to national authority.

That's why even she was secretly monitored by the Sky Eye Society, but she was too lazy to care.

But judging from Lucas's style of doing things, it's clear that the other party is unlikely to be as easy to talk to as she is.

At that time, an unprecedented conflict will inevitably break out between the two sides.

It might even escalate into a full-scale regional war.

Given Lucas's abilities, the suicide squad under Amanda's control is practically sitting ducks; only military-grade missiles or similar weapons can harm them.

Diana did not want to see that happen. Having experienced the World War, she deeply understood that once a war begins, no one can control its scope and impact.

Just as she firmly believed in truth and love, she always relied on fighting to achieve final victory.

Force itself is also a language.

Without hesitation, without any unnecessary movements.

Diana made her move again.

He lowered his body for a moment, and then threw out a clean and crisp straight punch.

Fueled by the blood of a demigod, Wonder Woman unleashed her full power, her speed and strength both reaching an incredibly terrifying level.

Clark could still discern the traces of the other party's actions, but it was clearly no longer as simple as before; he now had to concentrate his entire body.

However, Da Chao's weaknesses are also quite obvious.

First of all, he hasn't fully developed yet.

Although decades of exposure to the yellow sun have given him a foundation that Kryptonians have never had before, he has not yet reached the point where he can unleash his full potential.

In addition, he has almost no fighting experience, which is his biggest weakness at present.

When encountering an enemy who is not strong enough, you can simply use brute force to push them over. However, once you encounter an enemy whose strength and physical qualities are no less than your own, you will be put on the defensive.

For example, Wonder Woman.

Even though he could discern the direction of the opponent's attack, Clark felt that his reaction speed was clearly not keeping up with his brain.

In the rush, he met the attack head-on.

BOOM!

Their fists collided violently!

Two forces far exceeding the limits of ordinary people collided instantly.

A visible white shockwave exploded in the air, and the already loose wall panels around the perimeter fell off instantly in the powerful shockwave.

Unlike before, this time Clark was no longer able to remain as still as a rock.

Wonder Woman's punch was not a simple brute force strike, but a "penetrating force" that perfectly integrated Amazonian power, power generation techniques, and body balance.

That force was like a precise scalpel, not only as powerful as Clark's current strength, but also more cunning.

"Thump, thump, thump!"

Clark staggered backward uncontrollably, each step leaving spiderweb-like cracks in the ground, the soles of his shoes rubbing against the earth and emitting a pungent, acrid smell.

In contrast, Wonder Woman, although also pushed back several meters by the recoil, remained as steady as a mountain. She dissipated all the remaining force with a touch of her toes, and even her breathing rhythm did not change. "Your eyes can see my every move, and can even predict my trajectory."

"But your body can't keep up with your eyes."

"On the battlefield, if you can see something clearly but can't avoid it or stop it, you'll die even faster than if you can't see it at all," Diana said.

"Whoosh!"

With her feet firmly planted on the ground, Wonder Woman leaped several meters high and charged forward again.

Clark frowned, his anger flaring up as well, and he too leaped forward.

The two fought their way from the back alleys to the desolate fields, where large swathes of cornfields collapsed, looking as if they had been leveled by a sickle.

At first, Clark was able to fight back with some difficulty.

But as the fight progressed, Wonder Woman, with her formidable physique and extensive combat experience, quickly gained the upper hand.

They stayed at Da Chao.

Clark could only rely on his superhuman physique to barely hold on.

Finally, Wonder Woman seized the opportunity and delivered a powerful elbow strike to Clark's forearm as he blocked the shot!

An immense force instantly coursed through his entire body via his arm bone!

Clark let out a wail, then staggered backward several meters before falling awkwardly onto the grass.

Although he looked disheveled, his injuries weren't serious, since his biggest weakness was only Kryptonite.

"Sizzle!"

Enraged, Clark's eyes suddenly flashed crimson, and a scorching, blinding gaze shot straight at Diana.

Diana instinctively sensed the deadly heat rushing towards her, her nerves instantly tensed, and she darted to the side, barely dodging the beam of light.

The crimson ray grazed her shoulder and slammed into the grass behind her.

The grass instantly turned to char and black, and the soil was melted by unimaginable high temperatures, creating a deep trench that emitted white smoke. The surrounding wild grass was all ablaze with visible flames, and waves of heat swept over us.

Diana was shocked, never expecting that her opponent had such a destructive method hidden.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh————"

Several more scorching gazes shot over.

A "ding" sounded.

Wonder Woman crossed her arms, the protective bracelets clanging together with a sharp metallic tinkling sound.

At this moment, thousands of meters in the air.

Through the LCD panel in front of the cockpit.

Hawkman stared intently at Clark, who was locked in a fierce battle with Wonder Woman.

His already serious expression looked even more solemn.

He knew Wonder Woman's strength all too well; it was no exaggeration to say that Diana at full power was capable of easily defeating him.

The seemingly shy young man from the small town was actually able to fight back and forth with his opponent.

Despite appearing to be at a disadvantage, his experience and insight accumulated over thousands of years allowed him to immediately identify the crux of the problem.

The opponent's practical experience is too poor.

It's almost impossible to say.

If he and Wonder Woman possessed the same fighting skills, the current battle would likely be even more intense.

And the other party has a close relationship with the enemy who stole his Ninth Metal.

Furthermore, according to his old friend, there was an excessively young woman in the trio who possessed terrifying magical abilities.

This made Carter feel somewhat desperate.

Although the dagger forged from the ninth metal was enough to awaken his and the Hawkgirl's previous memories when they were reincarnated.

But if he could, he would naturally prefer to get his complete combat uniform back.

"Mr. Carter, I think Mr. Kent might be right. We should leave here." Atom Smash walked up to Hawkman.

"No, you can't leave here."

Courtney said loudly.

"Pat is still missing. Mr. Carter, he was your former teammate!"

She and her friends were sitting on the folding seats on either side of the main engine compartment. Upon hearing Atom Smasher's words, she immediately stood up and glared at him.

"Listen, little girl, you have no idea what price heroes have to pay. Look at your immature appearance, any villain could easily take advantage of you. Villains won't show mercy just because you're young."

"The Atom Smasher is all talk," he immediately said.

"But that doesn't mean we can just stand by and watch our teammates die because we're afraid of the consequences!"

Courtney retorted without backing down, her voice trembling slightly with emotion: "If we can't even protect our own people, what's the point of wearing these uniforms and inheriting these titles? Is the definition of a hero simply to hide in a safe place, coldly observe, and tell yourself 'this is the rational choice'?"

She abruptly turned to Hawkman, her gaze piercing: "Mr. Carter, you've reincarnated for thousands of years. Did you awaken each time to learn how to wisely abandon your companions? Pat is a living, breathing person! He's family we swore to protect!"

Atom Smash opened his mouth, wanting to retort, but Hawkman stopped him by raising his hand.

The other party slowly withdrew their gaze from the intense battle below and landed it on Courtney's young face, which was filled with anger and resentment.

Silence spread through the cabin, broken only by the deep hum of the engines and the faint sound of energy explosions in the distance.

After a moment, he finally spoke: "You're right, little girl."

He paused, his tone heavy: "I have indeed given up too many times. With each reincarnation, I thought I could do better, but in the end, I always lost more than I held on."

"But that's precisely why I understand better than anyone that true courage is never about recklessly rushing in to your death. Just like now, no matter how unwilling I am, I can't take back what rightfully belongs to me."

"But don't worry, I won't give up on Pat. But not right now. Kent already said Pat's life isn't in danger anytime soon, and he should be living a comfortable life for a while. So, let's go home first."

As he spoke, Hawkman's gaze passed over Courtney and fell on Yolanda, who was dressed as a wildcat.

"The spirit of the wildcat is to never give up and to protect the weak. Child, I hope you can inherit Taylor's spirit. He faced countless dangers, but until the moment of his death, his belief still burned within me."

"Yes, I will." Yolanda nodded solemnly.

This indomitable spirit is exactly what she needs right now.

Courtney was about to say something when a loud bang suddenly came from the left wing of the plane.

Immediately afterwards, the entire fuselage shook violently and tilted wildly to the right uncontrollably.

A feeling of weightlessness immediately swept through the cabin.

Except for the Whirlwind Girl, everyone else lost their balance and was uncontrollably flung towards the metal folding vehicle that was crashing into the side. The Whirlwind Girl, however, summoned a stream of air at the crucial moment to support herself.

"Warning: The aircraft's left wing has been attacked. The left fuselage has also been attacked. The left wing's hydraulic system has failed, and the system has automatically switched to the backup hydraulic system. The left fuselage surface has sustained severe damage."

The control panel suddenly started blaring a series of piercing alarms.

Then, there was a loud crash.

It appears that something has landed on the top of the plane.

The thick steel plate at the top collapsed visibly.

Immediately afterwards, a fierce battle erupted above everyone's heads, and the steel plate continued to sink, looking as if it were being grabbed and brutally crushed by an invisible force.

"Damn it, how did they manage to bring this scene here?"

Hawkman let out a weak roar, his dark face showing bulging veins, as he sat half-reclined in the pilot's seat, struggling with all his might to control the somewhat out-of-control plane.

"Bang!"

After another impact, Wonder Woman suddenly rushed out, using the momentum to knock Clark, who had just regained his footing, flying away.

Wonder Woman tensed her legs and leaped down as well.

Two people plummeted from a height of several thousand meters, one after the other, crashing heavily into the valley below.

"boom!"

Dust and gravel shot out from the valley floor in an instant.

The immense impact even seemed to cause the ground to tremble.

Wonder Woman's feet slammed heavily onto the ground, creating a cloud of dust. Her knees bent slightly to absorb the force of the fall, while her upper body remained upright and straight.

She slowly raised her head and looked cautiously into the distance.

As the dust settled, Clark grimaced and got up from the ground.

His whole body was covered in mud and dust.

It was stuffed on his face, in his hair, under his fingernails—even in his mouth.

To be honest, falling from a height of several thousand meters is not a pleasant experience at all.

Clark felt as if his internal organs had shifted.

"call."

Watching Clark stand up again, Wonder Woman let out a long, speechless sigh.

This battle-hardened Amazonian warrior was now completely helpless.

Although she didn't want to admit it, Lucas's brother was practically an unkillable cockroach.

Her physical abilities were even more incredible than she had imagined; she was completely unharmed after falling from a height of several thousand meters.

At that moment, she even felt that taking action against Jane was a mistake.

No, it should be said that it was a terrible decision.

Although she had the upper hand, her opponent just wouldn't fall.

For example, this woman, who could even defeat Ares, felt as if she couldn't end a fight that had suddenly come up out of nowhere.
