Chapter 365 Unable to repay a life-saving grace, I can only repay it with my body.
The two Kryptonian warriors didn't respond, but instead stepped forward and stood on either side of Fiora.
Clearly, they chose to take on Du Mu one-on-one, three at a time.
To deal with evil heretics like Du Mu who are hindering Krypton's rise, there's no need to talk about chivalry or honor; we can all just stand shoulder to shoulder and get it over with.
Fiora wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth with the back of her hand and warned the two Kryptonian soldiers beside her, "Don't go near him. There's something strange about that green stone in his hand. Once you get within a certain range, your bodily functions will rapidly decline."
The two Kryptonian warriors nodded in unison, their eyes suddenly glowing red.
The next second, four beams of heat, accompanied by scorching air waves, blasted towards Du Mu.
Since we can't get close, we'll suppress them from a distance.
The Kryptonian heat ray is not just about extremely high temperatures; it also carries powerful impact energy. Even if Du Mu is wearing the Ultron armor, being hit by one of these rays would be extremely painful.
Du Mu made his move the instant their eyes reddened.
He vanished from his spot in a flash, speeding through the ruins in an attempt to close the distance with the three Kryptonians.
Once they successfully get close, the radiation field of the kryptonite will cover them, and the initiative will immediately return to his hands.
However, these Kryptonians are not just reckless brutes.
After learning that kryptonite posed a deadly threat to them, the three of them didn't even give him a chance to get close.
Every time Du Mu moved forward a bit, they would retreat a bit, continuously scanning with heat rays as they retreated, with no intention of letting him close the distance to within a dangerous range.
And so, the next scene unfolded.
The Earthlings, acting as mages, chased after the Kryptonians, wanting to engage in close combat; the Kryptonians, acting as warriors, evaded the Earthlings, only wanting to deal damage from a distance.
Du Mu couldn't help but complain: "A bunch of fake Kryptonians. Shouldn't real Kryptonians just tough it out with Kryptonite?"
In the comics, Clark has the ability to catch kryptonite with his bare hands 100% of the time.
Despite its speed exceeding the speed of light, it still cannot evade bullets made of kryptonite, and there are countless cases of its flesh coming into contact with kryptonite.
Those who don't know might think that kryptonite contains some kind of addictive ingredient that Kryptonians have to take a sip every now and then.
Looking at the three in front of him, after confirming the destructive power of the kryptonite, they immediately spread out their formation, determined not to give any chance to get close, their caution making Du Mu's teeth ache.
What's more troublesome is that the three of them always stayed apart.
Even if Du Mu manages to exploit a weakness in one of them and force his way in, the other two can immediately provide fire support with heat rays, completely eliminating any possibility of him defeating them one by one.
The three Kryptonians worked together seamlessly, and even though Du Mu maximized his mobility, he still inevitably took several hits from the heat rays.
The immense impact blasted him through three buildings, sending him crashing into a pile of reinforced concrete rubble.
He stood up from the pile of rubble; the blue light on the surface of his Ultron armor had noticeably dimmed.
Because the Ultron armor was running at full power, his mana was dropping at an alarming rate and was about to run out.
The lower half of his faceplate flipped open automatically, and Du Mu quickly pulled out a dark black pill and threw it into his mouth.
[Item: Soldier Rations Pill (Restores a certain amount of mana and fills the stomach; an essential medicine for every ninja when going out)]
The soldier's ration pills melted in his mouth, and his almost depleted mana finally recovered significantly.
Before he could even catch his breath, the sky above him was once again torn apart by two red beams of light, which blasted straight down towards his location.
The core reactor on Du Mu's chest suddenly lit up, and a blue energy beam crashed into it, suspending the two heat beams in mid-air.
But at the very moment he blocked the frontal attack, two more heat rays struck from the left and right sides.
Du Mu stretched out his hands, each palm emitting beams of blue energy, barely managing to block the attacks from both sides.
They were all blocked.
But the energy he had just regained with the soldier's ration pills began to drain away at a visible rate again.
This relentless output, regardless of cost, is causing the mana to be consumed much faster than before, and it's estimated that it won't last more than a minute.
They fought Lü Bu with three heroes.
He, on the other hand, got taken down by three Kryptonians.
You probably can't find many people in the DC universe who receive this kind of treatment.
Of course, the main reason is that after Krypton explodes, it will be difficult to gather three Kryptonians.
Just as Du Mu's energy was about to run out again, a rope with a golden sheen flew out from the side and precisely bound the upper body of the Kryptonian warrior on the far right.
Before anyone could react, a tremendous pulling force struck, and the Kryptonian warrior was thrown out, crashing through a half-collapsed building in the distance.
The other two Kryptonians instantly shifted their attention away from Du Mu and looked in the direction from which the rope had flown.
A tall figure emerged from the shadows of the ruins.
She wore a crown with star-shaped patterns on her forehead, and a pair of protective silver bracelets that gleamed coldly on her arms. Her red half-body armor outlined sharp lines, with a gold W-shaped belt in the middle, paired with a blue mini skirt that revealed her two deadly long legs.
The moment she stepped onto the battlefield, it seemed as if a high-pitched and stirring background music was faintly playing in the air.
[NPC: Diana Prince]
Codename: Wonder Woman
【Favourability: 20】
[Evaluation: Princess of Paradise Island, one of the Justice League's Big Three, enters with her own background music, has demigod blood, and her father is Zeus]
Du Mu was no stranger to this person.
The famous Wonder Woman, Diana, is a demigod who has lived for thousands of years.
However, if we were to pinpoint Du Mu's most profound impression of Diana, aside from her unforgettable long legs, it would be that Diana bore a striking resemblance to someone he knew.
They both use shields.
They also participated in the war.
Similarly, there was a soldier named Steve who piloted a German plane carrying dangerous goods and perished, sacrificing himself to save his country.
With these elements combined, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call her Captain Amazon.
"You don't seem to be from Earth. What are you?"
Fiora hovered in mid-air, coldly looking down at Diana.
She sensed a very familiar quality in the woman before her—the fearlessness and strength of a true warrior.
This kind of temperament doesn't need words; as a fellow seasoned female warrior, one can recognize it at a glance.
"Diana Prince, daughter of Queen Hippolyta, an Amazon warrior."
Diana raised her head, meeting Fiora's scrutinizing gaze, and calmly drew the longsword from her back, the tip pointing directly at her opponent.
"Invaders from another world, your actions have started a war. Now, cease your invasion immediately."
She was here because she heard Du Mu's global broadcast via a small loudspeaker.
Because of Steve's death, and having witnessed too much of the dark side of humanity, Diana chose to shut herself off and remained out of the world for many years.
When General Zod issued his ultimatum to the world, she was engrossed in restoring a batch of artifacts and was unaware of everything that was happening outside.
But this time is different.
Du Mu's voice appeared directly in the minds of every intelligent being on Earth; Diana couldn't help but know it.
Upon learning that these Kryptonians planned to terraform Earth and obliterate all surface civilization, Diana could no longer remain silent.
Ares, the god of war whom she considered the most evil, only secretly incited humans to kill each other to prove the ugliness of human nature, and only in the end would he personally destroy the race.
These Kryptonians are even more outrageous; they come in and want to format Earth, making almost all life on the surface cease to exist.
Compared to the Kryptonians, Ares is practically a god of civilization.
After so many years of observation, Diana had long understood that there was indeed a dark side to human nature, but she had also witnessed countless glorious moments that were worth protecting with her life.
So when the world truly faced an existential crisis, she chose to step forward once again.
"Hmph, no one can stop Krypton's rebirth!"
Fiora snorted coldly, her eyes suddenly shooting out scorching beams of light that blasted straight at Diana.
Diana remained unfazed, raising her arms to cross in front of her. The pair of protective silver bracelets on her wrists instantly absorbed both heat rays, allowing her to stand firmly in place.
Taking advantage of the moment, Du Mu simultaneously fired energy beams from his chest and palms, striking another Kryptonian warrior in the chest and blasting him more than a hundred meters away.
He turned to Diana, his gaze sweeping over her from bottom to top, and said with emotion, "Thank you for your help. I have no way to repay your life-saving grace. According to the customs of my hometown, the only way to repay this kindness is to offer myself to you."
Diana's expression stiffened slightly: "That won't be necessary. I'm here to help you stop them."
On her way there, she had already seen Du Mu and Bruce fighting against the Kryptonians and confirmed that the two were warriors protecting Earth, so she was relatively friendly towards Du Mu.
Du Mu nodded, quickly switching back to his serious demeanor: "Alright, then you help me block that woman above my head. Buy her as much time as you can, and leave the rest to me."
"no problem."
Diana didn't waste any words and readily nodded in agreement.
She could certainly see how terrifying these Kryptonians were; they were far more powerful than most of the enemies she had ever encountered, and she dared not be careless in the slightest.
As soon as he finished speaking, Du Mu sprang into action, charging towards the Kryptonian warrior he had just knocked away.
"Don't even think about it!"
Fiora shot out heat rays from her eyes, attempting to block Du Mu's path.
The next second, the Lasso of Truth bound her ankles, pulling her down from mid-air and slamming her to the ground.
Diana gripped the other end of the lasso and smiled, "Your opponent is me now."
Fiora stood up, her face ashen. "You think you can stop me?"
"Why don't you give it a try and see?"
After Diana finished speaking, she suddenly exerted force with her feet, creating a spiderweb-like crack in the ground, and rushed forward like a cannonball.
Fiora, not to be outdone, charged straight at him.
The next instant, the two figures collided violently in mid-air.
boom!!
A deafening roar, like a muffled thunderclap, exploded, sending dust and debris flying everywhere.
Du Mu resisted the urge to turn around and watch the two women fight.
What he needs to do now is to eliminate the remaining two Kryptonian warriors as quickly as possible while Diana is holding Fiora back.
The Kryptonian warrior he had blasted away earlier had already climbed up from the rubble.
He noticed Du Mu charging towards him, a look of disdain on his face, and immediately buried his head and sprinted in the opposite direction of Du Mu...
This is not out of fear of fleeing, but a strategic retreat.
Du Mu held Kryptonite, which could counter the abilities of the Kryptonians, in his hand. He had no chance of winning in a one-on-one fight. The most rational thing to do right now was to create distance, regroup with his other companions, and then launch a counterattack together.
Seeing the Kryptonian warrior take off running, Du Mu started taunting him from behind.
"Why did you run away? Are all Kryptonians deserters?"
"You don't even have the courage to confront it head-on. No wonder you Kryptonians are the only ones who didn't die on Krypton. You must have known that Krypton was going to explode, so you packed your bags and ran away beforehand."
The Kryptonian warrior gritted his teeth in anger, but his pace did not slow down at all.
There are not many Kryptonians left now, and every Kryptonian is a valuable strategic resource that cannot be sacrificed in vain.
He wasn't protecting his own life, but rather Krypton's assets.
After a bit of self-hypnosis, the Kryptonian warrior suddenly felt incredibly great and ran even faster, completely ignoring Du Mu's taunts and automatically muting him.
"Wow, that's really fast!"
As Du Mu watched the distance between himself and the Kryptonian warriors grow ever greater, he couldn't help but curse.
Unable to bear this injustice, he immediately pulled out a bottle of medicine and poured it into his mouth.
[Item: Taunt Potion (After drinking, all hostile targets will be taunted for a certain period of time and will attack the user)]
After drinking the taunt potion, Du Mu instructed the Ultron armor to turn the voice volume up to maximum and let out a loud roar.
"You bastard, stop right there!"
"You called me a traitor!?"
The Kryptonian warrior, who had been running wildly, suddenly stopped, turned around abruptly, and glared fiercely at Du Mu, his eyes looking as if he had seen his neighbor cheating on him.
"Wow, is this potion really that effective?"
Du Mu was overjoyed and rushed forward without hesitation.
The Kryptonian warrior seemed to have lost his mind, completely disregarding the radiation from the Kryptonite, and charged straight at Du Mu, swinging his fists at him like a madman.
Bang!
Du Mu caught his fist with one hand, then punched him in the face with his other hand, slamming him hard to the ground.
The Kryptonian warriors attempted to fire heat rays, but the Kryptonite compressed them, causing them to flicker intermittently and preventing them from concentrating energy.
Du Mu pulled out his all-purpose weapon, reattached the kryptonite to it, and smashed it down hard on the Kryptonian warrior's head.
Eighty, eighty!
Soon, the Kryptonian warrior beneath his feet fell silent.
Du Mu's record is now on par with Reporter Xia's.
"Who else!?"
Du Mu laughed heartily and shouted with high spirits.
No sooner had he finished speaking than the roar of an engine suddenly came from the sky.
Several Kryptonian spaceships descended from the sky, their hatches opened, and several Kryptonian warriors jumped out, their faces filled with hatred and their eyes bloodshot as they stared at Du Mu.
Du Mu:
""
Oh no, I think I forgot to turn the volume back up.
