Super Detective in the Fictional World

2176 Side Story: Fantasy Journey 17

Superman’s fists were fast enough to hit any opponent, and he didn’t need to use his legs at all.

But seeing that half of Luke’s body had been ‘roasted,’ he had subconsciously kicked out at Doomsday.

Doomsday’s big head turned half a circle at the heavy blow, and the heat beam finally moved away from Luke.

At the same time, its huge body was sent flying.

At this speed, it would pass by ten meters in front of Luke in the next moment.

How could Luke waste the opportunity he had gotten in exchanging for acting miserable?

Pushing off of his toes, he abruptly sped up and brushed past Doomsday.

The sword was just barely able to reach its ankle. Relying on the sharpness of the battle goddess’ longsword and momentum, Luke successfully cut through most of the tissue in Doomsday’s leg and some bone.

Superman was only slightly surprised, before he lunged forward without hesitation.

Sensing the danger, Doomsday roared and punched out.

Bang! Superman grabbed its fist tightly.

On the other side, Luke threw the sword back to Diana.

Diana grabbed her longsword. Not far away in front of her was Doomsday’s back.

She leaned forward and pushed off of the ground with her long legs; she was like a cheetah hunting prey, and the longsword was her ‘fang.’

The sword swept out in an arc in front of her and struck the spot which Luke had cut open earlier.

Crack! There was the faint but distinct sound of bones breaking.

To push back the pressure from Superman, Doomsday’s legs were straining where it stood.

After a string of attacks by Luke, Superman, and the battle goddess, its left ankle could no longer endure, and broke completely.

Doomsday’s balance was broken, and it was finally pressed to the ground by Superman.

At that moment, Luke slipped back to the pit that Master Wayne had jumped into. “Hey, how’re you doing?”

Master Wayne exerted strength in his legs and struggled to push away the building debris. He gasped for breath and replied, “I won’t die.”

Luke coughed and tapped his ear.

Stumped for a moment, Master Wayne then heard the butler ‘translate’ Luke’s question. “Knight is asking if you have a secret weapon. Do you want to tell him?”

Master Wayne frowned as he sized up the guy in front of him.

Half of Luke’s armor had turned gray from the heat beam, and white ash fell — this was the nanomaterial that had been completely destroyed.

The nanomaterial in the nanocartridge flowed out in a steady stream, and the armor gradually returned to its original state. It didn’t look damaged at all.

Master Wayne was a little envious. Repairs at any time? That was too convenient.

As he pondered, he asked the old butler, “What is No. 2’s ETA?”

The old butler said, “30 seconds; it has the spear and the grenade launcher. The launcher only has three grenades in it.”

Master Wayne said, “Got it. Let this guy know.”

Guy? The old butler rubbed his chin. His young master’s temper was the same as ever.

Even as he ridiculed his young master, the butler had already connected to Luke’s comm line and relayed Master Wayne’s words.

Why didn’t they talk directly? It definitely wasn’t because they were arrogant, but to avoid being heard by Doomsday.

With its superhuman hearing, and at such close range, it would take nothing at all to hear their conversation.

Doomsday was a violent monster, but not a stupid beast.

In fact, Luke had already sensed its gaze sweep over him and Master Wayne every now and then.

It was just a ‘passing’ glance in battle, but Luke had clearly sensed the danger with his intuition for death.

Fine, maybe it was because he had cut off half of its leg just now. Luke admitted he might be over paranoid.

But it wasn’t a bad thing to be cautious when it came to Doomsday.

As they spoke, Superman and the battle goddess had already gained the upper hand.

In a battle at this level, what was it like to suddenly lose a leg? Doomsday had an idea.

It was the difference between being evenly matched and being restrained step by step.

Although Doomsday could still float and fly at astonishing speeds, it still wouldn’t feel as easy to exert strength.

Diana’s longsword wasn’t an ordinary weapon, unlike Luke’s paltry blades, which couldn’t even break Doomsday’s skin.

Still, it took a lot of effort for Diana’s longsword to cut Doomsday. It was a little like an ordinary person cutting through cowhide with a blunt blade, but it could still be cut.

After the cut was made, the divine power on the sword prevented the other party from recovering quickly.

As for a leg that had been cut off, that was even harder to heal quickly.

Superman didn’t have much combat experience, but his basic qualities made him invincible.

Diana, on the other hand, was a battlefield veteran and had killed many otherworldly creatures.

Seizing hold of Doomsday’s weakness, she pressed forward step by step and attacked during that slight moment when it lost its balance.

It had been less than ten seconds since Luke and the other two attacked Doomsday, and they found it hard to control the rhythm of battle.

At that moment, the two tanks had Doomsday locked down, and it couldn’t escape.

This bought time for Master Wayne’s second fighter plane to arrive at the scene.

Looking at the flames on the horizon, Luke and Master Wayne were both relieved.

The kryptonite spear and the grenade launcher with kryptonite grenades were too important.

Without kryptonite as the biggest debuff, it would be useless no matter how badly Doomsday was beaten up. At most, it would just need ten minutes to recover.

At that moment, Doomsday exploded again.

It roared, and the energy stored in its body turned into a storm that swept through the battlefield.

This time, Luke didn’t have Master Wayne lie down. He used the gigantic shield to block them, but he couldn’t help but curse. “F*ck!”

Master Wayne said, “What?”

Luke said, “Your plane blew up.”

Old Master Wayne followed Luke’s gaze and saw that in the energy storm, Batplane No. 2, which had just flown over, was crippled and turned into debris.

“Oh, sh*t!” He couldn’t help but curse.

The fighter plane was a small matter, but the kryptonite spear on it was their only trump card.

Now… it was gone?

It wouldn’t be completely destroyed. Kryptonite itself was very special, and the energy it emitted was antithetical to Kryptonian beings.

But in this chaos, who the hell knew where the spear had been sent flying? They might not be able to find it even if they searched until tomorrow.

Thus, after the storm passed, Luke immediately disappeared into the dust and headed straight for the bulk of Batplane No. 2’s remains.

Master Wayne did the same.

He wasn’t as fast as Luke, but the armor had a pretty good, small-scale detection and search function.

On the other side, Superman and Diana gritted their teeth as they looked at the violent Doomsday, D*mn it, did it have to be such a cheat?

At that moment, huge bony claws had grown out from Doomsday’s severed ankle. The hideous bone spurs twisted and knotted together, and looked like a hammer that had been attached to its ankle.
