Chapter 55 Shooting Clark
New York, Manhattan.
Inside the brightly lit estate, Diana wore a bathrobe and handed Kal a glass of red wine.
The two sat in the lounge area of the garden, sipping red wine.
"How is it?"
"What do you mean?"
Diana smiled slightly.
"I'm talking about Shazam. Looking at you, you don't seem very satisfied."
Speaking of this, Kal felt helpless.
"He has the divine power of Zeus, but his combat performance is a complete mess."
Pausing and looking at Diana, Kal added another sentence.
"Possessing the same divine power, his combat power is far inferior to yours. I even doubt if he can beat Bruce."
The corners of Diana's mouth lifted slightly, and upon hearing the latter part, she turned her head to glance at Kal again.
"Bruce wouldn't compare with him; he's just a child!"
"Furthermore, the power exerted by the same strength in different people is not the same."
Kal nodded slightly and drank the last sip of red wine in his cup.
Stepping forward, he held Diana's hand.
"Let's not talk about this! It's late, we should rest!"
Diana was not shy at all, instead staring straight into Kal's eyes.
"Come on, my knight!"
...
Time passed quickly, and Kal kept traveling back and forth between the nameless small island and his estate.
The training for Billy Batson also began to show initial results.
Although his goofy demeanor still couldn't be changed, his combat power had significantly improved.
Bang——!
A front kick landed on his chest, and Billy's body instantly flew backwards.
Bang—— Bang—— Bang——!
His body bounced continuously on the beach, and every time he landed, it drove the surrounding sand to fly in all directions.
Countless craters formed a line on the beach.
Freddy and the others on the side were not surprised at all; they had long been used to Billy's various beaten postures during this period.
"Mm——!"
Billy couldn't control his body, rolling and heavily collapsing onto the beach.
He opened his mouth, and the sand on the ground stained his mouth.
"Ack, spit, spit, spit!"
Lying on the ground to recover for a long time, he slowly raised a hand.
Kal frowned, was he surrendering again?
I only used less than five percent of my strength.
And!
Kal looked at the Kryptonite limiter and gravity ring on his body, and slowly shook his head.
At this moment, the fingers of Billy's raised hand suddenly retracted, and an internationally universal gesture instantly came into view.
Kal was so angry that he laughed.
Very good, you still have the energy to flip me off, so you must still have the energy to train.
Today I will definitely train you half to death, I hope you can last longer!
Billy slowly got up from the ground, seeing Kal clenching his fists again, he instantly regretted his impulse just now.
Why did he provoke him?
Kal was about to strike again when a familiar figure with a long shockwave suddenly flew over from afar.
Bang!
"Diana?"
Kal stepped forward, looking doubtfully at Diana who suddenly appeared.
"Kal, Clark has entered the intensive care unit!"
"What?"
Kal even felt like he had heard wrong.
Clark was Blue Superman, a Kryptonian.
What kind of person could make him enter the intensive care unit?
"Who is it?"
Could Darkseid have come?
Otherwise, Kal couldn't think of anyone else who could make Clark hospitalized.
"An ordinary person, using a Kryptonite bullet!"
Diana answered Kal's doubt.
Kal:!!!
"Are you serious?"
Kal looked at Diana and raised an eyebrow.
"Of course! I came specifically to notify you!"
Since it was true, Kal didn't plan to waste any more time.
He turned to look at Billy, Freddy, and the others.
"Today's training ends here!"
Diana also nodded at them with a slight smile as a greeting.
Billy looked at Diana with wide eyes.
"Wonder Woman, hello! I've always been your fan."
He hurried forward.
"I love..."
Bang!
"Pua!"
Kal retracted his fist, but Billy's body bent into a C-shape, skimming rapidly across the sea surface.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh——!
Bang, bang, bang——!
His body flew very, very far.
Bang!
Long after, a huge explosion came, and the distant sea surface had been blasted with a tall column of water.
Kal looked at Diana.
"Let him drink some seawater to calm down!"
Diana pouted with a smile at the corner of her mouth, loving how much Kal cared about her.
Bang——!
Swoosh——!
The figures of the two completely turned into a dazzling lightning bolt streaking rapidly across the sky, instantly turning into two tiny black dots.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh——!
Long after, Billy finally flew back holding his chest, shaking his head as he watched the direction of Diana's departure.
Sigh!
Mary on the side stepped forward and puckered her lips toward the direction where the two left.
"Wonder Woman has Superman, she won't look down on you!"
Eugene also stepped forward and patted Billy's shoulder.
"Good luck to you, Superman won't let you off so easily!"
"Uh... well, actually I really just treat Wonder Woman as an idol."
"That's best!"
...
Gotham City, Wayne Enterprises Private Hospital.
Kal and Diana landed on the ground, and Bruceimmediately greeted them.
"Your city is really strange, there are always all kinds of gunfights, and now even Clark can be wounded by a gunshot, it's almost like being cursed by some demon of chaos."
Bruce also felt strange and couldn't give a reasonable explanation.
Batman was so active in Gotham City, and caught criminals one after another into prison, why were there always criminals coming out to make trouble?
Was Batman playing house with them?
"Where is Clark?"
"He has been transferred to a general ward, the Kryptonitebullet has been removed, and with his physique, he will recover soon!"
Opening the ward door, Lois was inside talking with Clark, and hurriedly stood up upon seeing Kal's arrival.
"How is it? The taste of Kryptonite isn't comfortable, right?"
Clark smiled.
"It really wasn't very comfortable, but I have already recovered."
"You need to adapt to Kryptonite, this is your weakness!"
Kal suggested seriously.
Clark didn't refuse either.
"I will!"
Bruce didn't have much expression, only thinking it was a pity about the Kryptonite he had collected.
If none of you are afraid of Kryptonite, what use is my Kryptonite spear?
"Bruce, I know you have Kryptonite there, take it out and give it to Clark."
Kal spoke, looking at Bruce who seemed to be thinking about something.
"Okay, I will give it to Clark."
Bruce didn't hesitate either; since things were already like this, he might as well just give it directly to Clark.
He couldn't exactly tell Clark that this thing was used to guard against Clark.
"Who did this injury to Clark?"
Bruce touched his chin.
"I know this person, Robert DuBois, a black mercenary with precise marksmanship, a vicious killing machine."
"We have already arrested him and are preparing to sentence him to prison."
Bloodsport?
Kal finally knew who this person was.
"Since he is about to face the sanction of the law, my injury is also settled."
Kal smiled and nodded.
"Of course! You should sunbathe, recovery will be very fast!"
"I will!"
...
Leaving the hospital, Kal looked at Bruce.
"Amanda Waller always thinks that the Suicide Squaddoesn't have enough members. I think this mercenary who can wound a Kryptonian has great potential and is worth cultivating!"
"Tell Amanda Waller that there is a ready-made candidate for the members of Task Force X."
Anyway, he would enter Task Force X sooner or later, so why not arrange him in advance and pull some strings.
You're welcome!
Bruce:...!
The corners of his mouth also slowly curved up.
Kal's operation seemed to have also opened up a new line of thought for him.
Chapter 56: A Woman's Fight
Bruce's lips curved up slightly.
"Alright, leave it to me! I will communicate with Amanda."
Furthermore, if we manage to capture heinous criminals in the future, we can also have Amanda Waller absorb them into the Suicide Squad.
This is neither illegal nor violates his no-kill principle.
If they die during the mission, it just means one less criminal in the world.
Working for the country, dying for it still means his no-kill principle won't be broken.
I just didn't expect Kal-El to sometimes be so...
"Kal-El, you really surprised me!"
Kal-El looked at Bruce; what was he smiling at?
"This is just a small test; I wouldn't lay a hand on an ordinary human over a trivial matter."
Kal-El's explanation was very persuasive.
"Of course, I understand what you mean. You just found an excellent talent and recommended him to work for the country."
Bruce didn't expose it either; instead, he went along with Kal-El's statement.
"To be honest, his marksmanship is indeed good."
"Of course, he is the second ordinary human who can injure Clark."
"The first was you."
"Uh...!"
Diana saw Bruce choke up for a moment and smiled helplessly.
"Alright, I was just joking! You don't have to take it to heart."
Kal-El said that and walked straight away.
Bruce looked at Kal-El's back and suddenly spoke up.
"That joke is not funny at all!"
"Indeed not funny!"
Diana walked past them and quickly caught up with Kal-El.
One year later.
Billy's training finally came to a complete end. Although his goofy aura severely damaged his heroic image, at least he didn't always have to run away when encountering enemies.
Bang—!
With a loud crash, a whip kick heavily sent Billy flying.
"Kid, I hope you guys can shake off the title of Philadelphialosers, training ends here."
"Yahoo, no more training at last!"
Billy instantly became elated, able to play to his heart's content from now on.
In Gotham City, a woman was speeding wildly in a luxury car, with a hyena sitting in the passenger seat, and the roaring engine sound echoed through the entire street.
Screech— screech—!
A harsh screech of brakes sounded, and Harley Quinnsuddenly stopped the car.
She picked up a gun from the back seat of the car and walked straight toward the bank, walking openly toward the security guards outside the bank door.
"I'm here to borrow some money to spend, don't mind."
The two security guards were just about to take out their weapons when Harley Quinn's gun was already pressed against their foreheads.
Bang!
With a muffled explosion, a rubber bullet shot out from the barrel, hitting one security guard's forehead with strong kinetic energy.
Bang!
The security guard's body instantly fell backward, crashing into the bank's glass door.
Glass fragments splashed everywhere. Harley Quinnejected the casing from the chamber, and took another rubber bullet from the rubber bullet bandolier on her body to load into the chamber.
Her movements were clean and neat, and her gun-spinning technique was extremely dashing.
Bang!
The two security guards were knocked unconscious by her two rubber bullets.
She stepped through the bank doors without hesitation.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
One shot!
Two shots!
Three shots!
Three men in suits were neatly knocked to the ground by her.
"Ah!"
Another tall and strong security guard rushed over, his towering body lunging toward Harley Quinn.
Harley Quinn reversed her grip on her rubber gun and swung it backhandedly.
Bang!
The gun stock heavily landed on the chest of the rushing man.
Bang!
"Ah!"
With a scream, the man's body instantly flipped in place and fell to the ground.
Harley Quinn smiled at the people inside the bank and waved her hand.
"Everyone don't be nervous, I'm just here to borrow some money!"
She came to the counter and flashed a smile.
"Two sisters, help me pack some money, I'm going to buy pretty clothes!"
"You... how much do you want?"
A pretty white teller's voice trembled.
"One million dollars, help me pack it in the bag!"
She casually took out a backpack and handed it over, sitting in front of the counter waiting listlessly.
Outside the bank, Kal-El and Diana were sitting in the car looking at each other in dismay.
"That's Harley Quinn?"
Diana was too surprised. She was just caught robbing a bank by Kal-El last time, how long has it been since she got out of prison before she's robbing one again?
Diana looked at Kal-El.
"I'll go this time!"
"Go, teach her a lesson, otherwise she will never behave!"
Diana smiled and put on her sunglasses.
She opened the car door, wearing a long trench coat and high heels on her feet.
Set off by the sunglasses, Diana exuded the aura of a cold, badass older sister.
Tap tap tap!
From far to near.
The sound of high heels stepping on the ground was particularly clear inside the quiet bank at this moment.
Diana walked straight in, as if she didn't see the chaos at the scene.
Unhurriedly, she took out her bank card and handed it to the bank teller inside.
"Help me withdraw thirty thousand dollars, thank you!"
The teller inside looked at Harley Quinn sitting next to Diana, asking for her opinion.
Harley Quinn looked at this exceptionally calm woman and looked at her with new respect.
Intuition told her that this woman was not simple, and her aura didn't look like an ordinary person either.
She patted the counter in front of her, still chewing gum in her mouth.
"Return the bank card to this sister, I'll cover her thirty thousand in cash!"
"Just pack one million and three thousand dollars for me, and give the extra thirty thousand to this sister as a gift."
At this moment, Harley Quinn's voice was full of grandiosity.
In her view, she actually wasn't short of money; whenever she lacked money, she could just go to the bank to borrow it regularly.
As long as she was careful not to run into difficult superheroes like Batman and Superman, her life could be completely comfortable.
The teller inside heard Harley Quinn's words and quickly returned Diana's card.
Not even noticing Diana's unique gold card.
But Harley Quinn was quick-eyed and fast-handed, taking Diana's gold card.
"What kind of card is this, it looks pretty neat?"
Diana smiled.
"An ordinary gold card, an American Express Centurion Card!"
Harley Quinn didn't care either and returned the card to Diana.
Taking her bag, Harley Quinn unceremoniously took out three bundles of cash from it and handed them to Diana.
"Here, I am Harley Quinn, consider these a gift from me to you."
"No need, the money in my card is more than enough."
Diana slowly took off her sunglasses, smiling as she looked at Harley Quinn in front of her, who was wearing a backpack and looking excited.
"Harley Quinn, long time no see!"
"Ah!"
The smile on Harley Quinn's face suddenly disappeared, her eyes widened, and she looked at Diana, stuttering nervously.
"Y-Y-You..."
"You're Wonder Woman!"
She suddenly remembered something, turned her head and looked around outside the bank.
Fortunately, it seemed Superman didn't come, so the situation wasn't too bad yet.
Bang!
She threw the backpack on her back to the ground and dropped the gun in her hand.
Pulling out a baseball bat from somewhere unknown.
Whoosh whoosh!
She simply swung it a couple of times; the feel was just right, and her gaze looking at Diana held a hint of eager anticipation.
"Come on, let's have a fight between women!"
"Tomorrow's Daily Planet will definitely record today's peak battle between two female heroes!"
"Going to be famous, I'm actually a bit nervous!"
Harley Quinn's mouth didn't stay idle for a second, but looking at Diana standing opposite, she didn't make any moves.
Diana smiled slightly.
"Harley Quinn, we could have been friends."
"What a coincidence, now I have to send you back to prison."
"Then let's try it, I, Harley Quinn, am not one to be trifled with!"
Chapter 57: Task Force Assembled
Harley Quinn tightened her grip on the metal baseball bat in her hand, leaped up, and smashed it toward Diana.
"Bang!"
Diana suddenly sidestepped, and the bat grazed Diana's body, slamming heavily into the wall behind.
"Bang!"
Flecks of debris burst out.
Sweeping horizontally again!
The bat tore through the air.
"Bang!"
The bat was blocked by Diana's arm, producing a crisp sound of clashing metal and iron.
The huge recoil force made Harley Quinn's palms go numb.
"This battle is over!"
Diana said faintly, suddenly throwing a punch outward.
Harley Quinn had completely no time to react before Diana's fist slammed into her abdomen.
"Thud!"
Her body instantly flew backward, hitting the wall and rebounding to the ground.
"Bang!"
Although dense cracks had already appeared on the wall, Harley Quinn was surprised to find that she had not sustained too heavy injuries.
She lay on the ground, and the bat had already fallen in the distance.
She suddenly closed her eyes and slammed the ground fiercely.
"Damn it! Why am I so weak?"
"Tap! Tap! Tap!"
Diana's footsteps sounded, walking over slowly.
"Alright, I admit I was bragging just now. This is not a battle between two heroines, but only one heroic heroine beating up a cute Harley Quinn."
Harley Quinn also had to admit defeat temporarily at this moment; admitting defeat to Wonder Woman was not disgraceful.
Diana was not fooled by Harley Quinn, walked in front of Harley Quinn, squatted down, and smiled at the corners of her mouth.
"A robber is still cute?"
"Uh, I just borrowed money and didn't pay it back, it doesn't count as robbery!"
Harley Quinn flashed a big smile at Diana; she knew that she had made Diana laugh like this before.
"Mmhmm..."
Diana indeed couldn't help it.
Striking while the iron was hot, Harley Quinn quickly acted pitiful.
"I just came to the bank to borrow some money to use. At worst I'll return it to them. Can you not send me to prison?"
Diana put away her smile and looked at Harley Quinn's pretentious pitiful appearance.
"No, you still have to go to prison to calm down! But I can let Amanda remove you from Task Force X."
"Then forget it. It's still more fun in Task Force X, and it just so happens I haven't seen them in a long time!"
Harley Quinn pretended to be relaxed, knowing that the result of imprisonment could no longer be changed.
Then might as well go into Task Force X to play; there must be some exciting things.
If she had known earlier, she wouldn't have robbed a bank in Gotham. She didn't run into Batman, but encountered Superman and Wonder Woman twice.
Next time she would go to Manhattan to rob those rich people, robbing the rich to help the poor!
Diana walked out of the bank, followed by the colorful Harley Quinn behind her.
Coming outside the car door of a car by the roadside, Dianaopened the door and climbed in, then looked at Harley Quinn standing outside.
"Get in quickly!"
"Where are you taking me?"
Harley Quinn also climbed in.
"Sending you to surrender!"
Diana looked at Harley Quinn with a smile.
"Ha?"
Harley Quinn was dumbfounded. Making her surrender herself was not something the great Harley Quinn would do.
"Harley Quinn can only be caught, never submit!"
Harley Quinn did not want to return to prison in this way.
"Then I will personally send you over, but your sentence will probably be even longer!"
"If I cared about the sentence, I wouldn't have escaped from prison in the first place."
She suddenly saw Kal-El in front, wearing a suit and sunglasses.
"Hello, handsome, do you have a girlfriend?"
Seeing Kal-El's handsome profile, Harley Quinn knew this man would be very handsome.
It's just that this profile always had an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
Kal-El turned his head and glanced at Harley Quinn.
"Yes!"
Harley Quinn still didn't give up.
"Then do you mind having one more?"
Kal-El:...!
Diana:...!
"Sizz— Sizz—"!
Kal-El stepped on the brakes, and Harley Quinn suddenly staggered.
"The police station has arrived, you should go surrender!"
"Your driver is really boring."
Kal-El: "..."
Harley Quinn turned her head and said a sentence to Diana, immediately opening the car door.
Diana shook her head helplessly.
Harley Quinn really was a humorous player!
Under Wonder Woman Diana's certification, Harley Quinnwas finally detained again.
Soon after, she would be sent to Louisiana's Angola Prison.
This was what she proactively requested, and Diana also fulfilled her wish.
Diana returned to the car, and Kal-El looked at the police station and smiled.
"This woman can only quiet down in prison!"
Diana also agreed with this point.
"She is a bit too crazy!"
...
A few days later, transport plane cabin.
"Make way! Make way!"
Harley Quinn walked into the transport plane with her backpack on her back.
Captain Boomerang was a bit surprised.
"Why are you here again?"
"I just wanted to borrow some money from the bank, but I didn't expect to run right into Wonder Woman."
Harley Quinn at this moment had not a single bit of loss, and was full of anticipation for this mission.
"Oh, I really sympathize with you. I was also sent in by the The Flash back then. When I get out, I will definitely teach him a good lesson."
Captain Boomerang comforted Harley Quinn, while thinking of the The Flash who had caught him in.
They were superheroes alike, while he Captain Boomerangand Harley Quinn were supervillains.
These superheroes were simply the nemesis of them Suicide Squad members.
Being able to enter prison was more or less because of them.
...
At this time, a Daily Planet reporter in South America transmitted a message back to headquarters.
A coastal country in South America suspectedly had alien creatures appearing, wanting to investigate deeply.
"She doesn't need to go. This thing is not something she can contact. Someone will find out the truth."
"Okay, boss!"
Kal-El put his hand on his chin and thought.
It seemed this was the plot of Jotunheim, or called the Starfish Project.
The giant starfish Starro wandered in space, and was captured by the United States during the Cold War, imprisoned to do experiments.
Wanting to create even more powerful weapons.
But considering multiple factors, the address of this experimental base was not chosen in the US mainland, but Corto Maltese, this coastal country.
The Cold War ended, and this matter also became a stain.
And the real purpose of Task Force X's operation this time was to eliminate all traces of the Starfish Project and wipe away the stain.
In fact, this matter was after all decades ago; the rulers and national presidents at that time were not this batch of people now.
Even if this secret broke out, besides affecting some of the US national image, the impact on the current US was also limited.
Since this news could be transmitted out, Amanda Wallershould also have gotten the news early on.
Perhaps official actions had also already begun.
This operation had two teams.
The first team had more people, but their combat power was too weak.
The contrast between front and back was too huge.
The second team was also similarly unreliable, but had Bloodsport as the team leader.
It really was him!
The man who once sent Clark into the intensive care unit, claiming that anything in his hands could turn into a deadly weapon.
Kal-El didn't care about this Task Force X mission, but the giant starfish Starro utilized small starfishes to parasitize countless city residents in the city.
Kal-El didn't want things to develop to this point.
The giant starfish Starro's action of occupying the city was still out of revenge for its own imprisonment.
Kal-El didn't want to kill it, but wanted to send it back to space.
Sivana seemed to still be in prison; why not let Sivana also go in and break in.
Kal-El raised his head to look at the high sky, his entire figure instantly tearing through the air, seeming to split the sky into two halves as well.
"Bang—"!
A The Flash of lightning flashed past, and Kal-El's figure had already disappeared into the horizon.
Chapter 58: The Squad's Ultimate Trump Card
South America, inside a transport plane heading to Corto Maltese.
Harley Quinn looked curiously at the aloof bald man sitting beside her.
"Hey, why are you cutting the line? They actually changed the schedule just for you."
"Yeah, who are you? Did you blow up a government building? Otherwise, how could you be made to join this kind of team right after entering prison?"
Captain Boomerang was also confused by Sivana's grand display.
"What's wrong with this kind of team?"
Sivana turned his head, wearing sunglasses to maintain his aloof persona.
"This is the Suicide Squad, and the missions we execute are all very dangerous; death is a common occurrence."
"I'm not afraid of danger!"
Sivana adjusted his sunglasses, his calm tone revealing confidence.
Sivana turned his head to look at the bizarre members in front of him.
They were all top-tier talents!
But these people didn't look all that strong.
"That woman Amanda is truly inhumane; she is best at threatening us with the things most important to us."
"Aren't you guys invited by Amanda Waller to join the operation?"
"What? Invited? Not coerced using prison sentences?"
Hearing Dr. Sivana's reply, a group of people completely lost it.
"Wait! Wait!"
Captain Boomerang quickly interrupted Harley Quinn.
"Did you not get injected with a cranial bomb?"
Dr. Sivana cast a faint glance at everyone.
"No, and that thing is useless against me!"
Bang!
"Damn it, that woman really picks on the weak and cowers before the strong!"
Captain Boomerang punched Blackguard's thigh.
"Oh, damn it, what are you doing?"
"Oh! Sorry!"
Captain Boomerang quickly withdrew his hand.
"Man, how did you get in?"
Harley Quinn felt that this bald man's vibe was completely different from several teammates who looked like idiots.
"You don't seem like you belong in prison?"
"So what did you do? Robbery? Theft? Or some perverted serial killer?"
Blackguard guessed Sivana's crimes from the side.
Dr. Sivana nodded at the smiling Blackguard.
"I did kill people!"
Javelin shrugged from the side, pointing at Weasel sitting next to Blackguard.
"That's nothing to brag about, it has killed 27 as well!"
"Those were children, an even heavier crime!"
Rick Flag explained.
"But saying it like that really makes people more surprised!"
"Superman!"
"What?"
Hearing that name, Harley Quinn instinctively perked up.
"Superman sent me to prison!"
"Whoa, you must be extraordinary; many of the ones Superman sends in are heavy-weight criminals."
Captain Boomerang sighed somewhat.
Harley Quinn also nodded in agreement repeatedly.
"Yeah, last time I went to prison was because of road rage at a bank and I got tackled by Superman, and then I appeared in prison."
"Do you have superpowers?"
Captain Boomerang suddenly remembered something and looked curiously at Harley Quinn.
Harley Quinn froze for a moment.
"I'm the type like Batman and clown; although I don't have superpowers, my combat power will definitely not disappoint you."
Savant slowly shook his head at this, obviously not believing that the colorful-looking Harley Quinn would have any combat power.
He didn't just look down on Harley Quinn; he even equally looked down on everyone in the transport plane except Rick Flag.
In his view, Sivana still wearing a pair of sunglasses right now was just to act cool, a typical all-show-no-substance guy.
Blackguard looked like a middle-school-syndrome patient, and Captain Boomerang was a chatterbox.
Not a single one of the group looked steady.
To execute such high-difficulty missions, they were all laymen.
Therefore, Savant, who fancied himself an expert, had no interest in chatting with his teammates and just quietly closed his eyes to rest.
"So Dr. Sivana, what are your superpowers? I think once everyone knows, we'll have somewhat of an idea."
Sivana turned his head to look at Captain Boomerang.
"You will see!"
"Prepare to jump from the plane!"
Rick Flag's voice came over, and everyone successively began organizing their gear.
Savant was the first to get ready, standing in the cabin door and jumping down.
Splash!
The sound of hitting the water came, the diving posture standard, deserving of a full score.
Splash! Splash! Splash!
Everyone jumped down one after another.
"What? He really has superpowers?"
Captain Boomerang's surprised voice came over. Everyone looked up and saw Sivana quietly hovering above the sea surface, without a shred of the disarray of falling into the water.
"Oh, such a person actually appeared with us, shouldn't he be transferred away like El Diablo?"
"He practically raised the standard of our Suicide Squad."
"Be grateful, my eyelid suddenly stopped twitching; I believe this is a good sign for me."
Captain Boomerang climbed onto the beach, suddenly feeling quite refreshed.
Splash——!
Weasel jumped down from the transport plane in a hands-and-feet scrambling posture, splashing a large amount of water.
Pat-pat——!
His arms kept slapping against the water surface, but his body began to sink continuously.
"Does anyone know if Weasel can swim?"
"..."
The scene was silent; no one answered this question.
"Damn it!"
Savant plunged into the water once more, swimming towards Weasel.
Sivana, hovering above the sea surface, didn't make a move.
He only came out because he was tired of staying in prison, and coincidentally Superman also let him join, right on cue accepting Amanda Waller's invitation.
"Weasel is dead!"
Everyone:!!!
Everyone was shocked. Weasel, who had savagely killed 27 children, died just like that?
Amanda Waller, watching this scene from A.R.G.U.S.headquarters, also put her hand to her forehead.
Right now, this squad looked practically like a joke, suffering non-combat casualties before even encountering an enemy.
Dr. Sivana dropped from mid-air onto the beach, the corners of his mouth slowly curling up.
The absurdity of this Suicide Squad was almost catching up to Billy Batson's Shazamily.
Currently, looking at the whole team, aside from the team leader Rick Flag, the steady Savant was the strongest.
Just wondering what his superpowers were.
Dropping Weasel's "corpse", the group continued forward.
As Blackguard actively exposed themselves, everyone then discovered that the enemy had already set up an ambush.
"Damn it, that guy sold us out!"
Rat-tat-tat! Rat-tat-tat——!
A dense hail of bullets blanketed towards everyone.
Under the fierce artillery attack, everyone could only temporarily avoid the brunt of it and scattered to dodge.
Sivana watched from behind; bullets struck clusters of sparks on him, but had no effect on him whatsoever.
Bang, bang, bang!
The Suicide Squad completely fell into a disadvantageous position, but T.D.K. stepped forward.
"Let me!"
He stood at the front, both arms detaching from his body, wobbling as they flew towards the armed enemies.
Sivana's eyes lit up; this superpower was interesting, just wondering how strong it was.
Slap! Slap! Slap!
Sivana clearly saw the two arms flying in front of the armed enemies, continuously slapping the heads of the enemies wearing steel helmets.
Slap-slap slap-slap!
Dudu dudu——!
Amidst the strafing, a soldier hit T.D.K.'s arm, and bloody holes instantly appeared on the arms.
T.D.K. lay on the ground struggling continuously.
"I'll handle the helicopter!"
"Mongal, no!"
Mongal completely ignored the commands, jumping onto the support frame beneath the helicopter in a blink of an eye.
Captain Boomerang threw two boomerangs, successfully slicing across the necks of two soldiers.
Harley Quinn and Rick Flag stood aside with rifles strafing distant soldiers, but the firepower was completely insufficient.
"Man, aren't you going to make a move?"
Sivana glanced at the battlefield at this moment; a helicopter, under Mongal's pull, was uncontrollably crashing down.
Bang!
Lightning shot from his palm, successfully hitting the helicopter.
Bang!
A huge explosion rang out, and the helicopter instantly turned into parts scattered across the ground.
"I thought you guys could hold out."
"But your performance is really poor!"
Chapter 59 Encounter in the Alley
Sivana casually destroyed the helicopter, then turned his head to look at Captain Boomerang beside him.
"Uh…"
Rick Flag didn't quite know what to say.
He also couldn't understand why the team he led had all sorts of bizarre abilities, yet their combat power was uniformly terrible.
Even El Diablo had been transferred away, and Deadshothad quit the Suicide Squad.
There wasn't even a benchmark character for combat power.
It really looked like a Suicide Squad, living up to its name.
Rick Flag looked at Dr. Sivana, feeling a bit awkward.
"Dr. Sivana, I'll leave it to you!"
Seeing Dr. Sivana stabilize the situation, Savant's verge-of-collapse mindset also steadied once again.
Bang!
He suddenly threw the special bouncy ball in his hand.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Bouncing off the ground, the bouncy ball heavily smashed into the helmet of a distant soldier.
Bounced again!
It crashed into the back of a soldier ahead!
Crack!
Bounced again!
Bang!
A gun-toting soldier's face suddenly went numb, and in a flash, he lost consciousness and fell to the ground.
"I didn't expect even a toy ball could be played with so many tricks!"
Tatatata——!
The gun barrels spat tongues of fire.
The enemy forces didn't give Savant another chance, as a dense rain of bullets instantly engulfed the area.
However, Dr. Sivana suddenly hovered and blocked in front of Savant.
He extended his palm, and a bolt of lightning instantly blasted toward a group of armed soldiers.
Bang!
"Ah——!"
Several soldiers were blasted apart by this lightning, their bodies scattering in all directions.
Alternating his hands, incredibly powerful lightning continuously shot out from his palms.
Transforming into strands of hungry electric snakes, they rushed toward the armed soldiers ahead.
Swish! Swish!
Swish——!
Dr. Sivana's presence severely threatened the battle situation, and rocket after rocket roared toward Dr. Sivana.
"Doctor, watch out for the rockets!"
Rick Flag shouted to remind him.
Sivana completely didn't take these mere few rockets seriously.
A patch of earthy-yellow smoke suddenly drilled out from behind him.
Roar roar!
Hiss!
An earthy-yellow skinned monster with sharp teeth and claws suddenly blocked in front of Sivana.
It opened its big mouth.
"Ha!"
Rocket after rocket was swallowed into its mouth.
Bang bang bang bang bang!
A few muffled thuds came from its belly, yet it was completely unharmed.
Hiccup!
It stuck out its tongue to lick its mouth, saliva dripping from its tongue.
Roar!
It glanced again at the panicked soldiers in the distance, then turned back into earthy-yellow energy and drilled into Sivana's body.
"The enemy has superpowered individuals, retreat!"
"Hurry up and go! Hurry up and go!"
The commander saw Dr. Sivana's abilities, and their side's weapons completely could do nothing to Sivana.
Even unprecedentedly powerful monsters could crawl out from Sivana's body.
It seemed this encirclement plan was doomed to fail; the strength of the enemy's superpowered individuals was completely beyond what they could contend with.
When dealing with superpowered individuals, he still preferred dealing with someone like T.D.K.
Simple and harmless.
Bang!
The final bolt of lightning shot out, and the battlefield finally quieted down.
The Corto Maltese commander had long since issued a retreat order, and the soldiers on the battlefield were scrambling to flee backward.
"Whoa, that's so cool, your hands can actually emit lightning."
Captain Boomerang hurriedly rushed in front of Sivana, looking at Dr. Sivana with eyes full of wonder.
The remaining few also walked over one after another.
"Seriously, you're cooler than El Diablo!"
Harley Quinn also crowded over, her gaze looking at Sivana full of curiosity.
"What was that crawling out of you just now? A demon? It looks really unique, even uglier than my Bruce!"
"I've never seen a demon before; can you let it come out so I can see? I can go buy it some dog food that Bruce loves to eat."
Sivana felt somewhat helpless. Why were these two so familiar right off the bat? He didn't seem to have any intention of chatting with them.
He looked at Harley Quinn.
"You wouldn't want to see it, because it likes to eat everything up."
"Uh, well, it looks like it's not that friendly!"
Harley Quinn didn't push the matter further.
Savant was completely convinced and walked forward.
"What should we do now?"
"We probably need to save someone first!"
Rick Flag looked at the screaming T.D.K. lying on the ground.
He walked up to T.D.K.
"What should we do? Your wounds aren't even on your body."
"Help me find my arms and bandage them up."
"Oh god! It's hard to imagine we still have to look for two bloody arms in a pile of ruins."
Captain Boomerang grumbled, and together with Rick Flag and the others, went to search in the charred ruins.
"Will his arms be electrocuted into ashes by Dr. Sivana's lightning?"
"I don't know, but he should be able to feel it."
"To be honest, a superpowered individual like him is even inferior to an ordinary human soldier; at least picking up a gun poses enough of a threat. I really don't know what goes on in Amanda Waller's head?"
Rick Flag shook his head, using a stick to pry open the ruins and search carefully.
"I'm not clear either. He's indeed not suited for combat, better suited for performing acrobatics."
"…"
"Found them!"
Harley Quinn found the two arms on the other side, immediately stepped forward, and excitedly placed them beside T.D.K.
T.D.K. desperately exerted control, and one arm finally slowly reattached.
Rick Flag hurried forward to bandage him.
Pausing for a moment, T.D.K. controlled the other arm once more.
After struggling for a long time, the arm showed no movement whatsoever.
T.D.K. glanced at Harley Quinn, his expression somewhat subtle.
"You might have grabbed the wrong one; this hand isn't mine!"
"Ah! Anyway, they're both hands, you can try and see if it attaches, maybe this hand is stronger and more powerful than yours."
T.D.K. shook his head helplessly, on the verge of a breakdown.
I am in so much pain!
"I can only control my own arms; I can't reattach someone else's!"
"…"
The group continued searching and finally found T.D.K.'s other arm beneath a corpse.
"What should we do next? We've already been exposed!"
The few instinctively looked toward Dr. Sivana.
"Don't look at me, this isn't my mission. I was just bored in prison and came out to relax a bit."
Rick Flag stepped forward.
"Find The Thinker, and through him completely destroy Jotunheim's alien laboratory."
"Fine, but I think we need to leave him behind."
Harley Quinn looked at T.D.K. lying on the ground aside.
Leading his teammates after some searching, Rick Flagfinally found the Corto Maltese resistance stronghold nearby.
"Thank you for your help!"
Rick Flag shook hands with the female leader.
"You're welcome, we're very happy to cause some trouble for Luna's government."
T.D.K. was left here to recuperate from his injuries.
Rick Flag led Harley Quinn and the others, successfully infiltrating the Corto Maltese capital with the help of the female resistance leader.
But the Luna government had already learned that a powerful superpowered individual had brought a team to Corto Maltese, and patrols were stepped up throughout the entire city.
At this time, patrolling soldiers were everywhere in Corto Maltese, and tight defenses were also set up outside Jotunheim.
Rick Flag didn't choose to charge in head-on.
"We need some casual clothes so we won't draw so much attention."
"But where would we get any?"
Harley Quinn pouted, glaring at Rick Flag with wide eyes.
"Like this…"
Soon, outside an alley, Harley Quinn leaned against the wall, her right hand gently brushing past the hair by her ear.
She looked at the pedestrians by the roadside.
"Hey, anyone want to have a beautiful encounter in the alley?"
Several youths in leather jackets happened to pass by, and upon seeing Harley Quinn, they all stopped in their tracks.
"Babe, looks like you need a man?"
Chapter 60: Advance, Jotunheim
"Of course, I like trendy guys with a unique style."
Harley Quinn licked her lips and turned into the alley behind her.
"Babe, you've got great taste."
Several people slowly followed her inside.
Boom! Boom!
"Ah! Who is it?"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
"Ah! Ah——!"
A few muffled sounds of flesh colliding rang out, and the men's screams came from the alley.
Heavy punch!
Elbow strike!
Boom! Boom!
Several men fell to the ground one after another.
When Rick Flag led the others out of the alley, several naked men were lying neatly in the alley sleeping.
Harley Quinn put on the sunglasses she had just swiped and walked forward dashingly.
Rick Flag and the others also followed along beside her.
"Nice sunglasses!"
"So is your leather jacket!"
The group came together to the gentleman's club bar frequented by The Thinker.
"Are you sure we won't stand out too much dressed like this?"
Savant looked at Rick Flag and asked, then looked at the leather jacket on his body.
"Of course, dressing like this is the most common thing in the bar!"
Rick Flag was very certain.
The group chatted while drinking, quietly waiting for The Thinker to appear.
Harley Quinn swayed her body on the dance floor, showing off her graceful dance moves, when she suddenly noticed a man walk in through the bar door with many gadgets stuck to his head.
She stepped with her dance moves and slowly approached Rick Flag.
"Is that The Thinker? He looks like a Teletubby."
Rick Flag smiled and took a sip of his drink.
"Get ready to make a move!"
Captain Boomerang and Javelin left their seats and moved closer to The Thinker.
At this moment, a strong man put his arm around The Thinker's shoulders, and a cold pistol pressed against The Thinker's ribs.
"Don't move, keep smiling, and treat me like a friend."
After a brief moment of surprise, The Thinker immediately calmed down.
Rick Flag hurriedly called to stop them.
"Wait, who is that by his side?"
Harley Quinn pretended to pass behind the two casually, and found a cold-glinting pistol pressing against The Thinker's waist.
"Someone is stealing our prey!"
Harley Quinn sat down next to Rick Flag and raised her head to drink a cup of crimson red wine.
A drop of bright red wine slid down her slender, snow-white neck, gradually falling into the bottomless abyss.
Rick Flag did not plan to give up The Thinker to others.
"Looks like we've got company! Get ready to snatch him back!"
Suddenly, a group of heavily armed soldiers appeared outside the door.
"Sorry, I hope this doesn't ruin your wonderful evening, but we got word that a group of Americans broke in."
"Now, take out your IDs and cooperate with our investigation."
This scene happened too suddenly, disrupting Rick Flag's plan to snatch the person.
"Let's get out of here first."
Just as Rick Flag was about to make a move, the bar suddenly descended into chaos.
In the blink of an eye, two strong men were pinned to the ground by a group of soldiers.
But Rick Flag noticed that The Thinker was being led toward the back door by the men's accomplices.
"Let's go, get ready to intercept them, The Thinker cannot be taken away by them."
The enemies in the bar were distracted, and Rick Flagsuccessfully led Harley Quinn and the others to leave the bar.
At this time, Ratcatcher 2 Cleo and Polka-Dot Man Abner Krill were transferring The Thinker, and King Shark Nanaue was following closely behind.
"Stop, put down The Thinker."
A voice came, and Rick Flag appeared from the corner of the wall with a gun, while Harley Quinn and Javelin also walked out.
Ratcatcher 2 stopped, looked at the ill-intentioned people in front, and turned around wanting to leave from the back.
"Dead end here!"
Captain Boomerang walked out of the darkness with a cheap smile, accompanied by Savant holding a bouncy ball.
The aloof Dr. Sivana stood independent of the battlefield.
"Nanaue!"
King Shark suddenly tore off the disguise on his body, transforming into a vicious humanoid shark.
"Roar roar!"
With intense excitement, he pounced towards Sivana, whose bald head gave off a faint glow even in such darkness.
"Holy crap, what is this thing?"
Dr. Sivana only then realized that he had seen this shark in prison before, but his instinctive reaction still made him stretch out his palm.
A bolt of lightning quickly struck towards the rushing King Shark.
Crack!
Boom!
Lightning lit up the night sky, and Nanaue was instantly blasted flying by the immensely powerful lightning.
Boom boom boom——!
His body rolled continuously on the ground, and the parts of his body struck by the lightning were completely charred.
"Roar roar roar! Nanaue!"
He lay on the ground holding his wound, with a somewhat painful expression.
"Nanaue!"
Ratcatcher 2 immediately ran to Nanaue's side, squatted down, and looked at the wound.
Fortunately, Nanaue's vitality was strong and he would recover soon.
She turned around, took out her summoner for calling rats, and Polka-Dot Man on the side also prepared for battle.
Javelin made the throwing motion, and Savant gripped the bouncy ball tightly.
Rick Flag looked at the people in front, his finger already resting on the trigger.
"Cease fighting, cease fighting."
Amanda Waller's voice came from the headset.
"They are Task Force X Team 2, and their mission objective is the same as yours; do not mistakenly injure them."
"What, there is a second team?"
Rick Flag asked in surprise, but made his team members stop attacking.
Seeing Rick Flag's gesture, everyone also stopped their actions.
Rick Flag turned his head to look at his team members.
"Put away your weapons, they are Task Force X Team 2, led by Bloodsport, and share the same objective as us."
"So those two big guys in the bar are also our teammates?"
Captain Boomerang also understood.
Sure enough, those two men who looked hard to mess with were not simple.
"Yes, they are Bloodsport Robert DuBois and PeacemakerChristopher Smith."
Ratcatcher 2 Cleo Cazo came to Rick Flag's side and explained their identities.
It seemed they were all teammates, and this fight shouldn't have happened at all.
"Why didn't you remind me just now?"
Rick Flag asked Amanda Waller in the headset.
"No one was at headquarters just now, they were resting."
Amanda Waller's calm voice came from the headset.
"Damn it, they're really punctual, we almost killed each other."
Rick Flag complained.
Although he had some complaints, Rick Flag still stepped forward to communicate with Cleo.
"So are we going to save them now?"
"They can escape on their own."
"Alright, then we'll go wait for them in advance."
The group grandly chased after the vehicles escorting Robert and Christopher.
Not long after, an escort vehicle on the highway flipped over, blazing with fire, and Robert and Christopher walked out of the car.
"Oh god! Are they shooting Fast & Furious?"
Captain Boomerang complained, as two dangerous criminals were actually able to escape from custody without a scratch.
"Hello everyone, I am Colonel Rick Flag."
...
Under the Jotunheim tower, fully armed soldiers guarded the gates.
Rick Flag and Robert led the two teams of Task Force Xmembers, striding over with arrogant steps.
"Stop, who are you?"
Harley Quinn smiled at the soldiers in front and suddenly tossed over two bombs.
"Sweethearts, I'm sending you two toys."
"There's a bomb!"
Boom! Boom!
The huge explosion tore the soldiers to pieces, and the remaining guards immediately fought back with guns.
Da da da! Da da——!
Chapter 61: The True Mastermind
"Eliminate them!"
"Having a massacre right before completing the mission is just wonderful!"
Peacemaker drew his high-powered pistol and pulled the trigger.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Several soldiers were hit, and their bodies exploded once again.
Bang——!
Blood splattered everywhere, turning the entire person into fragments of flesh and blood.
"Aren't you Peacemaker?"
Harley Quinn asked doubtfully, while pulling out a bazooka from behind her back.
Swish——!
Boom!
"Ah!"
The explosion turned into a fire demon, ruthlessly devouring the lives of the soldiers.
Peacemaker turned his head, but the gun in his hand did not stop, still accurately shooting at the soldiers in front.
"Yeah, for justice I can kill anyone! At any cost."
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Seeing the miserable state of the enemy soldiers, Harley Quinn twitched her mouth and shrugged.
"That title doesn't quite suit you."
"Careful!"
A soldier raised a grenade launcher, and that thick barrel looked amazingly deterrent.
Swish——!
At this moment, a Javelin suddenly pierced through the air, rushing forward like a bolt of lightning.
"Ah!"
Screams rang out as the Javelin deeply pierced into the body of the soldier carrying the launcher, passed through him, and firmly pinned another soldier behind him to the gate.
One pierce two!
Harley Quinn turned her head and gave a thumbs up.
"Great job!"
Javelin smiled, then suddenly reacted.
"I'm out of Javelins!"
Bullets whistled endlessly. Realizing this, he quickly dashed behind King Shark Nanaue.
On the other side, Captain Boomerang's boomerang kept circling the battlefield, each strike accurately slicing through the necks of several soldiers and bringing out wisps of bloodlines.
The boomerang continuously reaped lives in his hands.
He retracted the boomerang, spun around, and the boomerang flew out again in a bizarre arc.
"Boomerang!"
The soldiers ducked and dodged upon seeing this bizarre boomerang, but it was already too late.
Swish! Swish!
As the boomerang was retracted once more, two soldiers suddenly felt a pain in their necks, and their vision gradually blurred.
"Hah! Hah!"
Thump!
Graceful, truly graceful!
Savant also showed no fear, rapidly calculating the angle of his attack.
Bang!
He suddenly threw the special bouncy ball in his hand. The bouncy ball bounced off multiple collisions on the battlefield, flying toward the soldiers with powerful kinetic energy.
Bang bang bang bang!
The bouncy ball continuously bounced among the crowd, rebounding off the rear gate and flying back.
Savant smiled slightly and suddenly extended his palm upward.
Thud!
With a muffled thud, the bouncy ball returned to his hand.
King Shark couldn't hold back anymore, suddenly charging forward against the enemy's heavy firepower.
Roar roar roar!
"Shark monster!"
The strong deterrence brought by his bizarre physique and shark appearance successfully attracted most of the firepower.
Tat-tat-tat!
Tat-tat-tat——!
Dense bullets poured toward him like raindrops, but they could never pierce his hard skin.
The bullet heads bounced off and fell to the ground; King Shark Nanaue had already rushed close.
"Hungry!"
He didn't care about the soldiers still shooting on the side, just casually grabbing a fleshy soldier in front of him.
Looks so delicious!
He opened his big mouth.
Nom!
Crunch!
Crunch!
The entire person was swallowed down by his huge mouth.
"Oh, god, so disgusting!"
"He is seriously not a normal person!"
Captain Boomerang was shocked by this scene.
He actually ate a person, and on the way here just now, he seemed to have been chatting with him.
At such a close distance!
Suddenly so relieved that fortunately he doesn't eat teammates!
Bloodsport Robert looked at Captain Boomerang, who was shocked by this scene, and casually shot and killed the last enemy soldier.
"He's not even human to begin with!"
The battlefield quieted down, and all the guards outside the big gate were completely eliminated.
Rick Flag was also very satisfied looking at his team members.
It seemed that his team members' combat effectiveness wasn't bad; they just hadn't encountered a suitable battlefield.
As for Mongal, who pulled down the helicopter and almost friendly-fired her teammates, and Weasel, who drowned, they were not included.
Rick Flag and Robert walked side by side toward the gate.
Robert nudged Rick Flag's shoulder.
"Who is that guy wearing sunglasses at the back of your team? He hasn't made a move this whole time, is he just acting cool?"
Peacemaker Christopher also came over.
"He looks so annoying, I even want to beat him up."
Rick Flag smiled and didn't explain much.
"He's our team's trump card, I can't order him around."
"Quick, stop them!"
A large group of soldiers emerged from the rear again.
Robert quickly brought The Thinker to the camera in front of the gate for facial recognition.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
He pushed The Thinker's head to smash against it repeatedly.
"Stop! Stop!"
The Thinker hurriedly called to stop; if they smashed any more, he would faint.
"Let me do it, let me do it!"
He steadied his body and faced the camera.
Buzz!
Scan passed, the gate successfully opened.
"Let's go!"
A group of people filed in, and the gate began to close slowly.
Tat-tat-tat——!
Dense bullets hit the steel gate, sending sparks flying everywhere.
Bang!
The gate closed completely, and everyone in Task Force Xrelaxed.
The group began setting up bombs, preparing to completely destroy Jotunheim.
Entering the upper experimental area, countless people with starfish crawling on their faces came into view.
"Oh god? What happened to them?"
Cleo felt a bit creeped out looking at this scene.
"They have already been controlled by Starro, leaving behind only empty shells."
"Who are these people?"
"Among these people are dissidents, reporters, the elderly and children..."
The Thinker with the Teletubby antenna began to reveal the truth.
It turned out that the Starfish Project was a product of the US during the Cold War; they captured the alien creature, the giant starfish Starro, in space.
In order to create a more powerful weapon, they brought the giant starfish back to Earth for biological experiments.
But for various considerations, the US authorities ultimately decided to establish the laboratory in this South American coastal country, Corto Maltese.
Now the Cold War had long ended, and The Thinker never expected that just as the experiment was about to succeed, the US would send people to destroy Jotunheim.
This cruel result shattered Rick Flag's belief, but Harley Quinn didn't feel surprised at all.
"Oh, well, that's very American!"
After listening to The Thinker's account, Rick Flagimmediately stepped forward.
Bang!
He suddenly pulled out the hard drive inside the computer, extracting the evidentiary data of the US Starfish Project.
"What are you doing, Rick Flag?"
"This matter cannot be buried just like this; humanity has the right to know the truth."
Peacemaker Christopher suddenly raised his pistol, pointing it at Rick Flag.
"Sorry, I can't hand the hard drive over to you. Destroying all evidence is my mission."
The atmosphere grew tense; Captain Boomerang quietly and tightly gripped his boomerang.
Harley Quinn suddenly drew her pistol and pointed it at Christopher.
"Good thing I still have this, it comes in handy right now."
Between Peacemaker and Rick Flag, they would help Rick Flag without hesitation.
Several of them became familiar right after the Suicide Squad was established, and later even became friends.
Not to mention that criminals from prison like them didn't care whether this news would be leaked.
The atmosphere was tense, hanging by a thread.
Christopher was thinking about how to eliminate Captain Boomerang and Harley Quinn in the shortest time possible.
Bang! Bang!
With several loud explosions, the ground beneath their feet shook.
Losing their balance, several people quickly dodged the falling stones from above.
Bang!
The tower trembled unceasingly, as if some terrifying creature was about to break out of the tower.
Chapter 62 Superman and Starfish
Bang!
Rumble!
The top of the tower began to sink continuously, and the upper levels started to tilt.
Christopher turned to look aside; Rick Flag was holding the hard drive, preparing to leave.
"Bang!"
He abruptly picked up a fractured iron pipe nearby and lashed it across Rick Flag's back.
Swish!
"Ughah!"
Rick Flag only felt a huge force washing over him, accompanied by a sharp pain, and his entire body was whipped down to the ground.
Thump!
He slammed heavily onto the floor.
"Give me the hard drive!"
Peacemaker stepped forward to snatch the hard drive, but Rick Flag suddenly threw a punch, heavily slamming into Peacemaker's face.
Bang!
Peacemaker was knocked down by this punch, but immediately crawled back up and began a fierce battle with Rick Flag.
However, there was a significant gap in combat power between the two, and their fighting skills were not on the same level.
Although Rick Flag was desperately protecting the hard drive, he was knocked down to the ground by Peacemakertime and time again.
"Ahhhh!"
Peacemaker suddenly delivered another heavy punch to the chest, following with an uppercut crashing into Rick Flag's jaw.
Bang! Bang! Bang——!
Rick Flag's body instantly flew backward and upward, crashing against the hard wall.
He crashed heavily onto the ground, a sharp pain radiating from every part of his body.
"Ah!"
He struggled to climb to his feet, half-kneeling on the ground!
Christopher jumped over the obstacle and charged over once again with lightning speed.
Swish, swish, swish——
Suddenly, two boomerangs cut through the air, abruptly appearing before Peacemaker.
Peacemaker's pupils rapidly dilated as he suddenly leaned backward at extreme speed.
The two darts flew past, grazing his face.
He exerted force with his arms and quickly got up, the sound of tearing air coming from behind him once again.
Swish——!
He lunged forward abruptly, rolling continuously on the ground.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
With a few crisp sounds, the darts returned to their owner's hands.
"Sorry, Rick Flag is our friend, and I won't let you kill him."
Captain Boomerang stepped out from the corner, the two boomerangs in his hands still spinning incessantly.
Peacemaker stood up, a trace of pain suddenly appearing on the side of his face.
He wiped it with his hand, and bright red blood streamed down his cheek.
He was enraged.
"For peace, I can pay any price."
He suddenly raised his hand, and a large-caliber pistol appeared in his grip.
Bang!
The bullet instantly burst out of the muzzle, charging toward Captain Boomerang.
Swish, swish!
Clang! Clang!
The bullet collided with the boomerangs, and the two darts instantly flew far away.
Captain Boomerang suddenly ducked behind the wall, groping at his body to pull out two more boomerangs.
Peacemaker raised his gun and stepped forward when a Javelin suddenly pierced the air, hurtling over with a terrifying sharp aura.
The approaching air even stung Peacemaker's skin.
He lunged to the side with all his might, and a sharp pain suddenly came from his shoulder.
Bang!
A blossom of blood burst from his shoulder, and fresh blood dyed his entire arm red.
"Ah!"
He leaned against the back of the wall, tore his clothes, and tightly wrapped his shoulder with cloth.
"For peace, any price can be paid!"
He suddenly flashed out from behind the wall, a burst of gunfire erupting from the muzzle of his pistol.
Bang!
"Ah!"
Javelin extended his arm just as he was about to throw another Javelin, when he suddenly felt a sharp pain.
His arm had been pierced by a bullet.
He quickly retreated behind the wall, wrapped his arm with fabric, sweat rolling down his face continuously.
Peacemaker's marksmanship was indeed precise; even if it couldn't compare to Deadshot, it shouldn't fall too far behind!
Captain Boomerang knew full well how terrifying Peacemaker was, so he didn't rashly step out from behind the wall to expose his position.
He knew that although his boomerangs were precise enough, they weren't as fast as Peacemaker's marksmanship.
If the two of them struck at the same time, he would definitely die first.
Tat-tat-tat! Tat-tat-tat!
Gunfire rang out once more as Rick Flag suddenly appeared, holding a rifle and strafing the wall where Peacemaker was hiding.
Just as Peacemaker reached his hand out, the bullets already engulfed the area.
"Damn it, you damned criminals will never understand how to maintain peace."
"Maintain it like you do? You don't deserve to mention peace."
"Peacemaker is just a joke; you're merely an executioner who loves slaughtering the innocent."
"Is that so?"
A hand suddenly stretched out from the base of the wall, pointing a pistol at Rick Flag.
"Watch out!"
Rick Flag reacted quickly, rapidly shifting his body away.
Bang!
A bloody hole suddenly appeared on his shoulder, blood gushing down.
Thump!
His body collapsed to the ground, the hard drive in his hand still clutched tightly.
"Rick Flag!"
Captain Boomerang shouted, looking at Rick Flag with some concern.
"Damn bastard, I won't let him off!"
"Neither will I!"
Harley Quinn suddenly arrived from the side, taking a bazooka off her back.
"I'm going to make you taste this, Warbringer."
Harley Quinn muttered in a low voice and pulled the trigger.
The rocket trailing flames hurtled toward the wall where Peacemaker was hiding.
Swish!
"Damn it!"
Christopher lunged to the side to dodge the explosion.
Bang!
The wall suddenly exploded, and his body also landed heavily on the ground.
Just as he got up, two boomerangs suddenly flew toward him spinning at high speed.
His body, which had just steadied itself, rolled again as the boomerangs struck the hard ground, producing a crisp crashing sound.
The attacks from several people were linked ring after ring; Peacemaker completely failed to find an opportunity to strike back, finding himself in mortal danger instead.
Having barely dodged the boomerangs and just gotten up, another Javelin shot over.
How could this be?
His arm had clearly been crippled by a bullet!
Pfft!
With a dull sound of flesh being pierced, his right shoulder was penetrated by the Javelin, pinning him deeply to the wall behind.
Bright red blood slowly trickled down the wall, his eyes filled with unwillingness and confusion.
"Actually, I'm better at using the Javelin with my left hand!"
Javelin extended his intact left hand; this was his true strength.
Rick Flag, Harley Quinn, and the others all walked over, looking at Peacemaker hanging on the wall.
"I didn't want to kill you, but you insisted on being our enemy!"
"Heh… heh!"
Peacemaker's mouth opened slightly, but he couldn't utter a complete sentence.
Fresh blood kept spilling from the corners of his mouth.
He stared fixedly at the hard drive in Rick Flag's hand.
"Let's go!"
Paying him no further mind, the group turned and walked outside.
Until they left Jotunheim, they discovered that the giant starfish Starro had already broken free from confinement.
Its massive body began to vent wildly.
"Open fire!"
The Chief of Staff of Corto Maltese below couldn't care about any Americans and immediately gave the order to attack the giant starfish.
Dense bullets suddenly engulfed the giant starfish, and Bloodsport also began assembling his high-powered bomb rifle.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Suddenly, all the ammunition abruptly hovered to a halt as it approached Starro, resting quietly in mid-air.
"What is this?"
Everyone widened their eyes in shock, looking at the standing figure high up in the air.
He hovered quietly, his cape dancing wildly in the wind, his majestic aura overwhelming everything.
Even though the giant starfish's massive body was right beside them, everyone couldn't help but shift their gaze to that man exuding the aura of a powerhouse.
Kal-El opened his hands wide, and its Bio-electric Field froze all the ammunition in mid-air.
Starro didn't appreciate it; it suddenly spat out countless small starfish, letting them fall toward the crowd below.
Kal-El slightly raised one hand, and its Bio-electric Fieldgathered all the small starfish into a ball of sea stars.
The incoming bullets around them were also condensed together by this force.
Turning into a giant metallic sphere.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
