Kryptonians: Man of Steel

Chapter 1075: A Battle Across Time and Space

Trunks looked at the three.

"Go."

Luther nodded and said to No. 17 and No. 18.

Then the four of them headed for the city.

It is called a city, but in fact it is more like a huge maze of ruins.

Buildings collapsed, streets were broken, and the air was filled with dust and despair.

The people here live in fear. The shadows of the androids are like invisible chains that bind their freedom and hope.

The city's planning had long been destroyed by the war, and people could only survive in the ruins, looking for a little space to live.

The population has dropped sharply to tens of thousands, and every attack by the androids is like a sword hanging over their heads, ready to fall at any time.

Even in such an environment, the androids still enjoy playing their "games" and regard human suffering and despair as a source of entertainment.

Future No. 17 and Future No. 18 were enjoying their "destruction game". Their laughter echoed in the empty ruins, sounding particularly harsh.

Just then, Trunks and his group appeared.

"Trunks, I didn't expect you to dare to appear in front of us."

Future No. 17's voice was as cold as ice, and his eyes flashed with amusement and provocation.

To him, Trunks is like a toy that constantly challenges his own limits. Although he is not as powerful as Son Gohan in the past, his indomitable will makes him feel a little bit of fun.

After all, in this world shrouded in despair, it is not easy to find a little fun.

It used to be Son Gohan, but he died, and now it’s Trunks’ turn, so they are using less than half of their power to play with Trunks, for fear of killing him.

At this moment, Future No. 18 suddenly discovered something was wrong.

She crossed her arms and looked back and forth between Trunks and his group, finally stopping on No. 17 and No. 18 in the main time and space.

"No. 17, is that you?"

There was a hint of confusion and surprise in her voice.

Future 17 then noticed that in addition to Trunks, there were three other people standing opposite him. Luther was automatically ignored by them because in their eyes, Luther's aura was too weak to pose any threat at all.

However, they are surprised by the appearance of two other people - these two people look exactly like them, just wearing different clothes, as if they are their mirror images.

"Future me? I don't look very smart."

No. 17 in the main time and space spoke, with a hint of ridicule and disdain in his tone.

He had already learned from Trunks what would happen in the future, so he was not too surprised at the "self" in front of him. Instead, he found it a little funny.

"Future me? Who are you?"

Upon hearing this, Future No. 17's face instantly darkened, and a strong hostility rose in his heart.

He couldn't accept that in this world already shrouded in despair, there was actually another person who was exactly like him. This made him feel unprecedentedly offended.

"Number 18, how about I deal with your future self?"

No. 17 of the main time and space suddenly turned to No. 18 of the main time and space and made a suggestion. There was a cunning light in his eyes. Obviously, he planned to use this opportunity to "teach" his future sister a lesson. No. 18 of the main time and space smiled slightly. She certainly understood No. 17's thoughts.

"You deal with yourself, I'll leave her to me."

She pointed to the future number 18, her tone full of confidence.

She knew that although they looked the same, the differences in personality and abilities were enough to give her the upper hand in this battle.

As the two sides confronted each other, the atmosphere became increasingly tense.

The afterglow of the setting sun was gradually swallowed up by the night, and the moonlight sprinkled on the ruins, adding a bit of mystery and tragedy to the upcoming battle.

Trunks and Luther stood aside, with no intention of intervening.

"So, let's get started."

Future No. 17 took the lead in launching an attack. Future No. 17 suddenly raised his right hand, and a dazzling energy wave condensed in his palm.

The energy wave surged like boiling lava, carrying destructive power, roaring towards No. 17 in the main time and space.

No. 17 in the main time and space seemed calm in the face of this sudden attack. His figure was like a breeze, and he easily dodged the energy wave that was enough to destroy everything by moving sideways.

The energy wave passed by him and hit an abandoned building not far away, instantly blasting the building to pieces. Rubble and dust flew all over the sky, shrouding the surrounding scene in chaos.

While dodging the attack, No. 17 in the main time and space also quickly launched a counterattack.

Then, he rushed forward and pushed out his hands. A bright beam of energy, like the light of dawn, broke through the dark sky and shot towards Future No. 17.

When Future No. 17 saw this, a hint of surprise flashed across his face, but he quickly adjusted his posture, quickly intertwining his hands in front of his chest into a defensive posture, and a faint energy shield condensed in front of him.

The energy beam hit the shield with a deafening roar, and the energy waves spread out like ripples, stirring up the surrounding ruins and dust again.

The two men engaged in a fierce battle in the ruins. Their figures quickly shuttled among the ruins like two flashes of lightning, dazzling the eyes.

Every collision of energy was accompanied by a deafening explosion and a light so bright that it was impossible to look directly at.

Future No. 17's fighting style is more radical. He constantly launches fierce attacks, trying to defeat the main time and space No. 17 with overwhelming force.

No. 17 in the main time and space appears to be more calm. He cleverly uses the surrounding environment and the opponent's offensive to launch clever counterattacks and dodges.

No. 17 in the main time and space has calm and deep eyes, as if he can see through all illusions.

Facing the attack from Future No. 17, he did not show any panic. Instead, he dodged sideways in an almost artistic manner.

The energy wave whizzed past his cheek, bringing up an intense heat wave that instantly drew the surrounding gravel and dust into it, forming a spectacular energy vortex.

"It's time to show our true strength."

Main Spacetime No. 17 thought to himself, and then launched a counterattack. His figure flashed, as if he merged into the void, leaving only a residual image swaying in place.

The next moment, he appeared on the flank of Future No. 17, and punched out with a thunderous sound.

Future No. 17 was obviously not willing to be outdone, he quickly adjusted his posture and attacked with the same force. The two fists collided, erupting with a deafening roar, the air seemed to solidify at this moment, even time stopped.

The energy wave spread out from the two people, completely destroying the surrounding ruins, with dust flying everywhere, covering the sky and the sun.
