Super Detective in the Fictional World

2199 Side Story: Fantasy Journey 40

Thankfully, Luke’s Mental Strength was high enough, and he could withstand this consumption for the time being.

Just like that, the transparent Annihilation blades slowly cut through the white energy beams and cut off the energy circuits between the three boxes.

Victor, who was also working hard, sensed the change, and was pleasantly surprised. “What did you do? The energy flow is weakening. Not long now. We’ll succeed if we hold on a little longer.”

At that moment, all the members of the Justice League who had returned were delighted.

For them, killing Steppenwolf wasn’t their main objective; their main objective was to protect Earth.

Yep, it was the same for Luke.

Steppenwolf was only worth millions of experience and credit points, which was equivalent to hundreds of thousands of lives.

It seemed that he hadn’t been that ‘tyrannical’ when he came to conquer Earth last time. After all, he hadn’t succeeded in the end, and had even been sent running.

Of course, that might be because his goal wasn’t to kill or injure Earthlings. In any case, Earth would become his source of new soldiers after the transformation.

Under everyone’s gazes, the three boxes gradually separated.

Victor warned him, “Be careful. The energy is about to leak out.”

Swoosh!

Barry was as quick as ever. He was already hiding outside the tower, and only half of his head was sticking out to look in their direction.

Everybody else looked at him in disdain. Master Wayne moved back ten meters and put the external gear on his arms together so that there was only a small gap between them.

The battle goddess raised her shield to her chest and was done with her preparations. Arthur didn’t move at all. He was still holding his trident and watching happily.

Diana was going to warn him, but remembered that this guy was also a demi-god and definitely wouldn’t die, so she stopped.

As soon as Victor spoke, the white light that was wrapped around each of the Mother Box in a ball 50 centimeters in diameter fluctuated violently before turning into a blinding white light that spread out.

It happened very quickly. Even Barry only had time to exclaim and cover his eyes before he was blinded.

No matter how fast he was, he couldn’t reach the speed of light. The world turned completely white, and then it was pitch black.

Diana and Master Wayne had it the easiest. One had subconsciously raised her shield at the last moment, while the lenses on the other’s helmet had an anti-flash function.

Arthur was the most unlucky. He had just covered his eyes and screamed, when he was hit by the energy leak and smashed into the wall.

Three separate boxes lay quietly on the ground.

Dozens of meters away, Luke and Victor were lying on the ground on opposite ends.

Victor’s situation was a little better.

After all, he had been transformed by one of the Mother Boxes, and had an innate affinity with this energy, so he wasn’t blown to smithereens.

After completing the most important mission and averting this world crisis, Victor couldn’t help but chuckle.

He had finally done it! Even though he had become like this, he could still do something big.

“How are you? You’re not injured badly enough to die, right?” he asked with a smile.

Unlike the others, who had been some distance away, Luke had been exposed to the energy leak the most.

If it were Master Wayne, everyone would be looking for barbecue meat or ash.

Luke coughed and slowly sat up. “It’s a good thing you didn’t ask Diana, or she would’ve been disfigured.”

Diana, who had come over, was both a little sad and touched. She couldn’t help but want to laugh when she heard that.

Looking at the half-melted parts of the external gear on his arms, Master Wayne frowned and walked over. “And you like this doesn’t count as disfigured?”

At that moment, the completely damaged nanomaterial on Luke’s armor was falling off as gray dust.

However, the armor on his front had basically been destroyed, revealing a large amount of charred skin.

With the front of his helmet removed, his handsome face didn’t look handsome at all. Instead, he looked more like a horror movie villain boss — his face was badly mangled and his facial features weren’t intact.

Luke covered his face with his hand.

Enveloped in Light of Life, the faceless flesh was gradually replaced with Bale’s handsome face.

Everybody finally relaxed.

With this ability, there was indeed no need for him to be afraid of being disfigured.

Arthur finally crawled out of the rubble. Witnessing that scene, he touched his face, which was a little dark from the explosion. “Can you fix this for me?”

Everybody glared at him. You want a seriously injured person to make you pretty? How shameless.

Luke didn’t feel indignant. Arthur actually had a bit of a silly nature; he had only asked the question casually.

Luke stood up and walked over to Arthur. He stretched out his hand, which was enveloped in white light. “Alright, you should be able to sense that there is a limit to what my ability can do to treat you.”

When Luke put his hand down, Arthur frowned. “Why’s that?”

Everybody was curious.

Luke coughed and explained, “Barry and Bruce are human, but you and Diana can be considered demi-gods. That could have something to do with it.”

Everybody nodded.

Luke looked at the battle goddess. “So, Diana, you still have to protect yourself. Otherwise, I won’t be able to help you like Arthur here.”

Everybody looked at Arthur, whose skin had turned even darker, and nodded again. Diana would probably go crazy if she became like that.

Not only that, Arthur’s features were also slightly bent out of shape from the explosion. He suddenly looked a lot uglier.

It didn’t matter if a rough man was ugly, but it would be a waste for Diana to end up like this.

Arthur was depressed.

Victor had kindly warned him, but Arthur had just let Luke do his thing; he had asked for it.

Then, everybody slowly walked out of the broken tower with the three boxes.

Standing at the opening, the six of them looked at the town in front of them.

The Mother Boxes had been separated, and the dark red clouds caused by the energy they emitted were dissipating.

A clear sky appeared, and golden sunlight shone down through the dissipating dark clouds on the remains of the town.

The land and buildings that had been dyed purplish-black by the energy of the Mother Boxes were losing that scary color, and countless colorful flowers and low-lying plants rapidly popped up.

Luke checked the surveillance data right away, but didn’t find any suspicious harmful substances.

At that moment, he could sense the rich life force contained in the vegetation.

Although the human body couldn’t absorb a lot of it, it was still likely to be beneficial for anyone who settled down here.

Everyone else was relaxed, including the super paranoid Master Wayne.

Not everyone could remain vigilant after saving all of Earth.

As for Luke… In any case, this wasn’t the first time he had saved the world.

If he was really happy, it was because the system had just done the calculations for Luke completing this mission to save Earth. It gave him a 60% contribution rate, which was a total of more than 90 billion experience and credit points.

In addition, there was a notification that Diana and Barry had also become 1-star teammates.

Naturally, they shared about five billion experience and credit points with Luke.

An income of almost 100 billion experience and credit points in one go was indeed rare.
