American Comics: Multiverse of Madness.

Chapter 565 Steppenwolf attacks!
Sometimes, the enemy attacks faster than everyone imagined.

By the time the Amazons guarding the temple discovered the intruder, it was too late. Countless demonoids carrying Apokolips weapons were like locusts, constantly buzzing out of the blue beam of teleportation light.

"Intruder!!"

The captain of the guardian team let out a loud roar, and took the lead in drawing his bow and arrow, and shot an oncoming demonoid through the head.

The surrounding Amazon warriors also reacted immediately. The combat factors engraved in their genes can allow them to enter a fighting state under any circumstances, even if they are caught off guard.

Arrows flew across the sky, and the vanguard demonoids that appeared at the beginning were quickly killed. However, what the Amazon female warriors did not expect was that the demonoids on the other side of the portal seemed to be endless.

Just after killing a group, another group appeared, even more and more, buzzing and hovering in the sky, ready to attack them at any time.

Seeing a demonoid aiming at her with the weapon in her hand, the captain of the guard rolled dangerously to avoid the shot. Then she suddenly pulled out the sword from her waist. As she stood up, a sword penetrated her. Another demonoid trying to sneak up on him.

"There are too many of them."

The adjutant of the guard captain shot the demonoid in the air, and then quickly came to the captain's side, working with her back to back to warn of the surrounding situation.

"We have to notify more people."

"Her Majesty the Queen must be aware of the trouble we are encountering here, and the other sisters cannot stand idly by. These guys dare to break into the temple of Paradise Island. They will not come back today."

The captain of the guard clenched the sword in his hand, his face full of fighting spirit.

"What we have to do is drag them here to buy time for large reinforcements."

"Sisters, stay in formation!"

On the other side of Paradise Island, Hippolyta frowned, her face gloomy.

Turning around suddenly, Hippolyta put her hands on Diana's shoulders and spoke word by word.

"Diana, listen to me, you go find Wimbles right now. No matter what happens, don't go near the direction of the temple. Do you hear me?"

"Why, I am also an Amazon, and I also want to participate in the battle!" Diana said excitedly.

It is absolutely impossible for anyone to calm down when they see their home being invaded by enemies, and it is even less possible for Diana, who is a demigod.

She has been training for so long just to become an Amazon female warrior. Now that her homeland is under attack, she naturally does not want to sit on the bench.

"Don't be stupid!" Hippolyta's tone was a little harsh, and then she said seriously. "This is not your battle. Do you understand? With your current ability, your sacrifice will be in vain. What you will inherit is the future of the Amazon family."

With that said, Hippolyta raised her hand to summon her fast horse, turned over and stepped on it, and continued.

"Obey orders Diana, if you still think of me as your queen."

The words fell and Diana was not given time to answer. Hippolyta pulled the reins, and the strong horse neighed and galloped towards the temple at an extremely fast speed.

Unlike the horses in the human world, the horses on Paradise Island are all divine horses blessed by gods. Although they have the same appearance as normal horses and do not have an extra pair of wings, their strength, endurance, and wisdom are all Top.

After running all the way and climbing over a hill, the scene of the temple gradually appeared in Hippolyta's field of vision.

Looking at the temple battlefield from a distance, looking at the large number of strange creatures that were completely unequal to the number of guards, Hippolyta just wished that the horse under her could grow four more legs.

"drive!"

Seeing an extremely tall and strong giant suddenly appear in the battlefield, Hippolyta's eyes turned cold, and she quickly urged her horse to run faster.

"drive!"

The temple is built on the edge of Paradise Island. It is usually used for ancestor worship. It is very far away from the city. At the same time, it will take at least ten minutes to wait for the army of Paradise Island to gather and arrive here. .

However, it had only been three minutes, and the Temple Guards had already shown signs of decline. Although their combat effectiveness was very strong, the number of demonoids was too great.

In addition, a giant appeared with a giant ax in his hand and wearing invulnerable armor. Every time the opponent made a move, he would kill an Amazon warrior with irresistible force. This made Tian Ping in this tough battle quickly. Tilt up.

'We must catch up.'

"drive!"

Seeing her sisters die tragically one by one under the monster's axe, Hippolyta's heart was bleeding, and the murderous intent in her eyes was undisguised.

In the temple, the armored giant split the guard in front of him into two pieces with an axe. He immediately raised his head and stared at the strange square box in the temple with piercing eyes.

This tall man wearing a helmet like a hammerhead shark is none other than Steppenwolf, one of the elite groups of Dark Lord Darkseid and one of the new gods, affiliated with Apokolips.

"Finally found the mother box"

Steppenwolf reached out and picked up the box in front of him, and his heart, which had been a bit hanging, gradually settled down. He had heard something about this planet. A long time ago, the Dark Lord Darkseid personally led an army to attack this planet. Logically speaking, conquering an ordinary backward planet would not be difficult at all.

At that time, Darkseid had conquered countless planets and dimensions, and no one had ever been able to stop him.

However, what everyone did not expect was that Darkseid, who had never tasted defeat, would actually feel the taste of failure on Earth, a planet that is too weak to be weak.

Not only was Darkseid seriously injured in that battle, but even the Mother Box was taken away by the enemy and lost on the planet. This was something that Darkseid could not accept under any circumstances.

But things are different now. The mother box has been restarted, and Darkseid once again obtained the coordinates of the planet. This time, in order to win 100% here, Darkseid specially sent Steppenwolf to take the lead.

Although Steppenwolf's combat power cannot be compared with that of his own level, the New God is a New God after all, and there are almost no beings on the planet who can hurt Him.

If there really is something that poses a great threat on the earth, or there is some old monster hiding from ancient times that has survived to this day, Darkseid himself can also make a plan for the next step in advance.

Naturally, these Little Nine-Nine Steppenwolf doesn't know about it. Of course, even if he knew it, he wouldn't have any objections. Now, he is just happy because he found the first mother box.

As the crystallization of the greatest technological power of Apokolips, as long as the three mother boxes are found and combined into one, it will be enough to burst out with a powerful force that can rewrite the entire planet's material.

In other words, as long as the mother box fusion is successful, there will be no living thing on the entire earth, the entire world will disappear, and at the same time, this planet will be completely included in the territory of Apokolips.

"You die!"

Just as Steppenwolf was admiring the Mother Box in his hand, a loud shout came from behind him, and then the captain of the guard held a sharp sword, jumped up high and slashed towards his neck.

The edge of the sword was pointed directly at Steppenwolf's throat. However, when the sword advanced to a distance of less than ten centimeters from Steppenwolf's neck, it suddenly stopped and could no longer move forward half a step.

Holding the sword in front of him tightly with his huge palm, Steppenwolf smiled.

"Interesting attempt, I admire your courage to risk death."

"You damn monster"

Before the captain finished speaking, Steppenwolf's palm suddenly clenched, and the extremely hard sword exploded instantly. The blade and fragments flew everywhere, clinking into the surrounding stone walls.

Then, when the other party's body was about to fall, Steppenwolf's palm took the lead and pinched her neck before the other party could find a point of leverage.

Feeling the terrifying suffocation, the captain of the guard struggled desperately to resist, her hands and feet frantically attacking the giant in front of her.

However, her counterattack had no effect at all. Instead, her hands were scratched by the opponent's armor and covered with scarlet blood.

"You are a brave warrior."

Steppenwolf calmly looked at the woman in his hands who wanted to eat him alive. He immediately shifted his gaze and looked outside from the temple gate. On the plain not far away, a single horse was speeding towards here. .

"That should be the king you are loyal to."

Looking at the woman wearing a crown on the horse, Steppenwolf glanced at the woman in his hand and asked in a deep voice.

The captain of the escort team seemed not to hear it, and was still attacking Steppenwolf crazily with physical fists. It wasn't that she didn't want to answer, but she could no longer make any sound at this time.

The suffocation made her head congested with blood. Her eyes were red and bulged slightly. There was no other emotion in her eyes except murderous intent. This disappointed Steppenwolf who hoped to feel fear from her.

"Let her go!!"

At this moment, Hippolyta had come close. She drew her bow and arrow, and a pale golden light spread from the arrow to the arrow body.

Keenly aware of the aura of the ancient god, Steppenwolf was stunned for a moment, and then smiled mockingly.

click!
With a slight force on his palm, and with a crisp sound of his bones, the captain of the guard instantly lost all his strength, and his hands and feet hung down feebly.

"you wanna die!"

Hippolyta's eyes widened with anger, and as soon as she loosened her fingers, the divine arrow that had been passed down from ancient times to this day came out of the string in an instant, turning into a golden stream of light and heading straight towards Steppenwolf.

However, although the divine arrow was fast, the transmission channel was even faster. Steppenwolf had no intention of avoiding it and looked at Hippolyta mockingly.

The next moment, the divine arrow flew past, penetrated the remnant image of Steppenwolf, and shot through the temple, leaving an extremely obvious hole.

Looking at Steppenwolf again, he has long since disappeared.

The galloping horse gradually slowed down. Hippolyta gasped and held the golden bow in her hand. An unspeakable sadness and anger surged into her heart.

Looking at the mess around her and her tragically dead sisters, Hippolyta gritted her teeth and raised her head with tears in her eyes.

Looking up at the boundless sky.
