Chapter 427 Death Speed——Black Runner
Chapter 427 Death Speed——Black Runner
On Apocalypse, the sound of the blast channel is very loud, so it is impossible for Dane and others to arrive in a low-key manner.
When they emerged from the sonic tunnel, the surrounding guards also rushed over at the same time.
"Lord Steppenwolf!"
Immediately, a guard recognized one of the tall figures and quickly knelt down on one knee to pay respect.
"Steppenwolf" nodded, and then the moment the guards lowered their heads, the army's tomahawk killed them directly.
The real Steppenwolf has long since died, so the current "Steppenwolf" is naturally Dane pretending to be one.
Black-robed Superman and Big Barda turned a blind eye to this. They are both people who are used to life and death.
"According to the plan, let's split up."
"Steppenwolf" said to the other two people. Superman and Big Barda nodded in response, and then they each found their way and left.
Dane sprayed out lightning fireworks from his hands, burning the corpses of the surrounding guards to ashes. This would buy him some time, but it shouldn't take long.
"There's still a lot of work to be done."
There was a meaningful smile on "Steppenwolf"'s face, but he did not go towards Darkseid's palace, which Big Barda had pointed to earlier, but found another direction.
As soon as he landed, he felt that there was a power similar to his attributes calling him.
Steppenwolf's identity is indeed enough to scare people. Although Disad and others must have guessed that something unexpected happened to him, these guards did not know about it.
So Dane walked on the road wearing the skin of Steppenwolf without being noticed by anyone.
The journey was smooth, and Dane finally came to a laboratory. Although the structure of this laboratory was completely different from any building on earth, Dane could recognize it at a glance.
At such a close distance from 647, Dane finally confirmed that this power belongs to the attribute of death, which was too much of a coincidence.
But Dane walked in anyway.
As soon as the door opened, the surrounding guards rushed up.
They are all Desaad's personal guards. Since the theft of the Mother Box by Big Barda, Desaad has specially reorganized his defense. Now, except for Desaad and Darkseid, no one else is allowed here. People enter, including Steppenwolf.
Therefore, even if Dane walked into the laboratory wearing Steppenwolf's skin, he was still blocked by the guards.
Dane didn't say much to these minions at all. He directly raised the tomahawk he had seized from Steppenwolf and knocked back the oncoming guards with one blow.
"...!"
Dane raised his ax and struck down, directly cutting the shouting guard in half. The scene was brutal.
Desaad's new guards are all very talented new gods. They are still young, but their strength is already impressive.
However, even so, these new gods couldn't stop Dane's axe, and they were split in half, leaving broken limbs and bones on the ground.
Dane continued deeper and soon arrived at the core laboratory.
"who!"
Disad, who was busy at first, immediately turned his head. It seemed that he was so immersed in his research that he didn't even know that the enemy was coming through the door.
"Are you... Steppenwolf? No! You are not him at all!"
Dane's disguise really fooled DeSaad at first, but he soon realized something was wrong. Isn't Steppenwolf on Earth now? How could he be here?
Dane didn't talk nonsense to him, and struck directly at him without saying a word. Disard seemed to be in a weak state, so he was unable to block Dane's attack and was directly knocked away by the battle axe.
Fortunately, he left a lot of good things for himself, and those high-tech Apocalypse star battle armors saved his life.
"You've built something incredible."
Dane still maintains his persona, speaking to DeSaad in Steppenwolf's voice.
"Who are you! You are definitely not Steppenwolf!" Desarde climbed up with difficulty. He felt that he was very unlucky. Why was it now, when he had lost the most power?
There is no other way. Even though the debugging has not been completed, the experimental product already has complete Ability, so it is now considered to be tested in advance!
Desaad pressed the button on his battle suit and activated a certain device.
Dane turned his head, and the laboratory door in front of him suddenly opened. He immediately stepped back, and a dark shadow passed in front of his eyes, almost hitting him.
The shadow suddenly stopped after crossing Dane, seeming to be trapped in some unknown confusion.
Only then did Dane see the other person's appearance clearly.
The true form of that shadow was a person, a person whose whole body was wrapped in black armor. He looked as if he had no flesh and blood. Not only was his whole body cold, but Dane felt that the other person's emotions were also cold.
That is the apparent power of death, which changes the other person's temperament to what it is now. The power that attracts Dane here is in the other person!
Dane noticed that this man in full armor also had a very conspicuous feature. He was stepping on something like a snowboard.
He thought about it and realized that the other party seemed to have rushed over like a skier just now.
Is there such a person in the DC universe? To be honest, he doesn’t know much about the New Protoss.
"Who are you?"
The black figure thought for a while and suddenly said: "Life is a race, and death is the black runner."
"Oh?" Dane smiled, "Then are you chasing life or death?"
"Scott Free! Don't talk to him! Kill him!"
Scott Free? Isn’t this Mister Miracle?
The man who called himself the Black Runner struggled for a while and suddenly became quiet.
Dane felt the strong power of death gathering, and his intuition began to alert his brain again, but this time he failed to avoid the black runner's attack, and was hit solidly in the chest by something unknown.
But not painful or itchy.
(chbi) Compared to the opponent's invincible speed, his attacks are weak and cannot actually cause any damage to Dane.
But the opponent's speed... In a physical sense, it is almost equal to The Flash, but this has nothing to do with the Speed Force.
After close contact with the black runner, Dane could clearly feel that the abnormal speed came from the variant of the power of death [there are ten conceptual flavors.
No one can escape death, and therefore no one can catch up with death, so nothing can match the speed of death.
This is the power of speed that Dane has never possessed, but it is a variant of the power of death. Adding this power to his power system can make up for his shortcomings in speed.
Although Dane's physical speed is already very fast thanks to the power of Shazam and other super speed abilities, it is still impossible for him to transcend time and space at pure speed like Barry Allen. .
Dane once used Johnny Quick's body to study the Speed Force. He found that the state of the Speed Force has many similarities with living bodies. In other words, the Speed Force originally can also be regarded as a special life form.
Therefore, in order to obtain the Speed Force, one must either obtain the favor of the Speed Force like other Speed Force users, or use the power of Zanza to "kill" the Speed Force and then seize the Speed Force.
But most of the first method has become a puppet of the Speed Force. These speedsters who use the Speed Force become part of the Speed Force after death. It is the tomb of the speedster.
The second method will cause Dane to be assimilated by the Speed Force. As one of the basic powers of the DC universe, Dane will probably involuntarily become something like a rule after being assimilated into the divine power. It is difficult to say whether it can be maintained by then. Live in yourself.
Therefore, the Speed Force seems to be very easy to use, but in fact it is a bit tricky to use. Throughout the entire DC universe, almost only Barry Allen has ever reached the level of complete integration with the Speed Force.
Judging from the Speed Force's ability to ignore time and space, it is possible that Barry is the creator of the Speed Force. The question of whether the Speed Force or Barry Allen appeared first is simply not clear when they merge into one. Pointless.
It is precisely because of knowing this that when Dane integrated his super abilities, he deliberately stripped away some super abilities related to the Speed Force and streamlined the energy in his body.
It also eliminates the possibility of being assimilated by the Speed Force.
But because of this, his speed inevitably dropped a bit, which was a gain and a loss.
But the speed of the black runner, the power born from death, can just be his supplementary strength.
Dane is not only the Lord of Hell, he is also originally a formally established Death God, and he is incompatible with the power of death.
Therefore, after understanding the power attribute of the black runner, he immediately decided to get this power of death!
The absolute speed is not as good as the black runner, so Dane has a good lead and is ready to catch him with the ability to predict faster than the opponent.
But the black runner is too fast. Dane almost succeeds every time he tries, but always just a little short.
Although the black runner was able to hit Dane countless times, he was unable to break through his defense.
After entering the Apocalypse planet, Dane attached Beelzebub's Power to himself. The black runner attacked not Steppenwolf or Dane's Shazam body, but Mephista's body.
With the body mass of Hell Mephista, it would have been impossible to hurt him without a blow that penetrated the continent.
The black runner obviously does not have such physical attack ability, so his attack on Dane is not even a scratch.
Therefore, under the guidance of the dark instinct, the black runner decided to use the power of death. The effect of this ability is simple but powerful. Anyone touched by the black runner will fall into death.
But he obviously didn't know Dane's details, otherwise he wouldn't have used such a hasty method.
When the black runner took advantage of his speed and hit Dane again, the power of death was activated, seeming to drag Dane into the place of death.
However, at that moment, an even stronger power of death emerged from Dane's body, and the dark divine power dyed the surrounding area into a realm of death. It is not known what happened to the black runner, but Desaad's vitality was rapidly draining away.
He's sending it soon!
