Marvel: I traveled through time a little early

Chapter 167 Steppenwolf

"That's not enough!" Bruce's words also revealed that this time the enemy was extraordinary. "Did you find something when you illuminated the Bat Beacon?"

"Yes, there are dozens of witnesses across Gotham City whose descriptions match the suspect in the Metropolis kidnapping case," Commissioner Gordon explained.

Diana saw the sketch about the kidnapping case on the document handed over by Director Gordon, and recognized the suspect's identity at a glance, saying, "It's the Apocalypse!"

"Okay..." Barry was also shocked when he saw the ugly appearance of the Apocalypse Demon.

"The Apocalypse Demon must have smelled the smell of the Mother Box, the one in the laboratory. They took people away in order to torture them about the whereabouts of the Mother Box." Diana immediately connected to the reason why the Apocalypse Demon kidnapped those people.

"Those eight people may still be alive!" Bruce guessed after hearing Diana tell the reason why the Apocalypse Demon kidnapped scientific researchers.

The sudden appearance of "Nine Men" Cyborg startled Barry.

After taking a look at the people on the rooftop, Cyborg looked at the most famous Batman and continued: "The director of Star Laboratory was kidnapped tonight."

Diana also smiled happily when she saw her favorite Cyborg arriving.

"Okay, another scientist." Obviously the latest news is not good news, Director Gordon said helplessly.

"How are we going to find him?" Cyborg asked.

"There must be their lair nearby!" Diana affirmed.

"I marked the map of most areas of Metropolis and Gotham City, but I can't see any pattern." Gordon took out another piece of information and said.

"There is no intersection on land. This is Stryker Island between the two cities." Cyborg glanced at the map and said.

"These are vents, all leading to the abandoned Metropolitan Engineering Tunnel in 1929," Bruce said, pointing to the vents.

Gordon looked in the distance in the direction of Bruce's finger.

"The nest may be there." Diana guessed.

"Does he want to come with us? Because your car doesn't fit." Bucky asked.

"I have bigger stuff." Bruce glanced at Cyborg and said.

"Do you really think..."

When Commissioner Gordon turned around, only the Flash was left, who was slower to react than everyone else.

"Did they just run away like this? That's so rude." Bucky waved his hand to Director Gordon.

Then a burst of sparks and lightning disappeared in front of him.

George accompanied Bruce and the four of them to the Batcave. Bruce opened a vehicle covered with black cloth and said, "Let's go, time is running out. By the way, Alfred will bring us a set of headphones."

"Okay, sir."

"This doesn't look like a car!" Barry said looking at the strange-shaped vehicle in front of him.

"Of course it's not just the car, I hope we don't need to use it." Bruce said as he started the vehicle.

Half an hour later, the five people came to a vent.They all got off the vehicle. George first saw a work card on top of the garbage that obviously did not belong here.

After seeing George pick up the work card, Diana confirmed: "We are very close, the enemy's breath, nothingness, darkness, death!"

"Where are we? Alfred?" Bruce asked into the headset.

"Strike Island, you should be right below the tunnel vent. Look to the left, there should be a staircase leading to the mechanical room." Alfred pointed out the direction for everyone on the headset channel. "Yes, there are a lot of people there, um, there are also Apocalypse Demons, and Steppenwolf is there too." George said looking at where Alfred was pointing.

"Steppenwolf?!" Diana asked.

"Yes, Steppenwolf," George replied.

"Who is Steppenwolf? How could you see it?" Bucky asked like a curious baby.

"Steppenwolf is a member of the Apokolips ruling group, a member of the Darkseid elite, and is subordinate to Darkseid, the god of Apokolips, even though the latter is his nephew. Steppenwolf is the ruler of Apokolips by The younger brother of Jak Khan is also the oldest member of the New Protoss. His real name has long been forgotten. He himself also gave up his real name and only called himself Steppenwolf. After his brother was obsessed with the secrets of the Wall of Origin and was Trapped on it, Apokolips was run by Yuga Khan's wife, Queen Hegar. He followed Apocalypse after his nephew Darkseid ordered DeSaad to kill his kin on his behalf and usurp his father's throne. In order to respect the law of "victor is king", the star powerhouse became Darkseid's subordinate and was in charge of the Apocalypse Demon army on Apokolips. And of course I saw it with my eyes." George explained the origin of Steppenwolf to everyone.

"You seem to know a lot? Have you met him in the timeline you were in?" Bruce asked.

"No, but rich knowledge is the basis for a powerful mage." George explained with a smile, then looked at Barry and said, "Barry, you don't need to raise your hand, you can just say it."

"Well, I just want to ask the mage, is it the kind that rubs fireballs, or is it a magician with a big sword like Gandalf?" The curious baby Bucky came online again.

"Is that so?" George said and performed the fireball technique, and then said, "It's almost the same. The main thing is that he knows a little more."

"Okay, the teaching time is over, it's time for us to set off." After Bruce finished speaking, he took the lead and walked up the stairs.

When everyone came to the exit leading to the control room, they saw that the original iron bridge had broken. In other words, the road ahead was broken.

"Okay, any plans? You two?" Bucky asked, glancing at Cyborg and Batman.

"Don't fight alone, we have to join forces." Diana said.

Just after Diana finished speaking, Bucky used his inertia to rush to the other side. Diana didn't show any weakness and easily jumped to the opposite half of the iron bridge.

"I've heard of you, but I didn't expect you to be real." Cyborg made a rare joke with Bruce in Batman's costume.

"When it's useful, I'm real." After Bruce answered Cyborg's words, he took out the Batclaw Hook Gun and then came to the opposite side.

Cyborg glanced at George after Batman passed by, with flame jets exposed on all parts of his body, and slowly flew to the other side.

Then the four people on the opposite side looked at George, who was the only one who didn't move, and saw their searching eyes.George still didn't understand what they meant. A simple crossing of the bridge was turned into a performance showing off his skills.

George ignored the others and stepped forward. In the next second, George had already passed the crowd and appeared at the front.

Teleportation, simple and crude, absolutely defeats them in terms of performance. As the saying goes, the invisible disguise is the most deadly.

When the four of them saw George walking to the door, they signaled to be careful and walk more slowly, and then slowly walked to the door. At this time, they heard a conversation from someone in the control room.

"I've had enough of your silence. Tell me, where is the Mother Box?" Steppenwolf asked, holding up a captured man with one hand.

"Please, we all have families." The man whose deepest memory was read by the memory reading spider begged.

"Then you have a weakness." Steppenwolf said viciously.

"Steppenwolf!" Diana said when she saw the tall figure.

"Oh, okay, is that Steppenwolf? Sure enough, he doesn't look like a good person." Barry said.

"You're right," Bruce said.

"I really miss Superman right now." Barry said after seeing Steppenwolf's bulk and the special armored suit covered with thorns.
