Chapter 677 Guarding the Tower
Years ago, Kent Farm, Kansas.
The moonlight falls on the fields, and the silvery white light complements the aged night sky, casting a mysterious veil over the silent land. The crops in the fields swayed gently in the breeze, making a rustling sound, as if whispering the secrets of the night. The cattle in the distance were lying quietly on the grass, and occasionally they heard a few low calls.
The air is filled with the freshness of earth and grass, and time seems to slow down in this tranquility.
A leisurely and peaceful era, until now it seems to be just one of countless ordinary nights.
But no one knew that tonight would change the world.
Like a meteor falling from the sky, like a star among the stars in the dark night swooping down, causing an exaggerated hurricane. The crops on the field swayed under the impact of the airflow, making bursts of clattering sounds.
Then came the fall, just like Lucifer's fall from heaven for nine days and nine nights.
The deafening sound echoed across the fields, as if the whole earth was shaking. The moment the spacecraft hit, an exaggerated huge crater was created, the surrounding soil was lifted up, and a cloud of dust flew up.
It was a silver-white spaceship that fell into the deep pit, with the "S" mark clearly printed on it.
A few minutes later, a truck stopped at the edge of the pit and a couple got out.
"I don't know, Martha, we probably shouldn't get close."
"Look, Jonathan, it's a child!"
"."
This is the day the world's greatest hero comes to Earth. A kind-hearted couple adopted a child from the stars and taught him kindness and justice, as well as using his own strength to defend peace.
But history has changed.
When the Kents held the child in their arms, the quiet soil suddenly began to vibrate again, as if a powerful force was awakening from deep underground. The surrounding crops were uprooted, soil was flying, and the scene was chaotic.
The couple followed and saw in horror that a huge golden object slowly rose from the ground. The surface of the spire-shaped object shone with the luster of an unknown material, like a huge antenna pointing straight into the sky.
"So what?"
Jonathan struggled to stand still and looked in that direction with some horror.
Then he heard a rustling sound.
The sound came from the surrounding fields, like the squirming sounds of a large number of animals. It's shadows, shadows one after another, condensed and formed all around. The body made of pure darkness could not be seen at all, like a dark army gathering from all directions.
"Jonathan?" Martha hugged the child tightly in fear.
"Get behind me, Martha."
Jonathan nervously lifted the wrench he had taken from the car - even though he doubted it would do anything.
But the next moment, a flying shield whirled around, carrying some unique energy fluctuations. It whirled and cut into the bodies of several shadow demons. As it whirled into the hands of Captain America, who was somersaulting over, the latter Land in a half-crouch.
The couple was in shock, and before they had time to see the situation clearly, two more fiery beams of light came down from the air, sweeping across them hotly, and another large area of Shadow Demon evaporated under the red light.
"Mom and Dad!"
Superman anxiously dropped from the sky.
"What?" Martha held the child in her arms and looked up at him blankly.
Only then did Superman realize that he had slipped his words: "Oh, I mean, this gentleman and this lady, you are okay. Come with me."
In a matter of seconds, he took his parents and himself as an infant all those years ago to a safe location, then flashed back with a supersonic bang, rushing through the crowd of shadow demons like a disemboweled cannonball.
"Your cousin is very powerful."
Captain America knocked down a shadow demon in front of him with his shield and said.
"After she helped debug it, my energy shield can also cause damage to these things."
At this moment, Captain America's genuine vibranium shield is still in the hands of the missing Winter Soldier. He is using the energy shield generated by the watch-type device developed for him by Stark.
"Thank you, but that's not my cousin, it's my cousin. It's a long story." Superman said.
"So that was it." Captain America took the time to look at him.
"My old self, yes." Superman nodded, "And my parents."
"The beginning of a legend. They seem to be very good people." Captain America smiled, "I can understand why you can become such a good person.
You are powerful not only because of your abilities, superhuman, but also because of your soul. "
"Thanks." Superman smiled, "But let's focus on the mission first."
The golden tower, according to the Monitor, is a key device in the fight against the Anti-Monitor. After careful inspection, the monitors set these devices at key locations and key times derived from the heroic actions of superheroes, the most important moments in history.
For example, here is the moment when Superman comes to Earth.
Or for example, in the multiverse next door, there is another key time node.
In the middle of a desert, the camp of the terrorist "Ten Rings Gang" is located.
The place where Tony Stark, who had been missing for months, was being held.
It is also the day when a legend is born. The terrorists never dreamed that under their video surveillance, using a bunch of missile casings and scraps from the ordnance dump, the first Iron Man armor in history was born.
The silver iron sheet came out of the cave to kill the general. With the intensive bullets and firepower, people blocked the killings and Buddhas blocked the killings. The flames spitting out of their hands flew like fire dragons.
It was also at this moment that, in the middle of a desert, a golden tower rose into the sky.
Followed by the shadow demons, countless shadow demons emerged from nowhere and swept over like a wave.
The terrorists screamed and began to inject firepower into these unknown monsters. But it had no effect, and the shadow demons didn't even bother to pay attention to them. However, wherever the Shadow Demon passed by, the members of the Ten Rings Gang were all smashed to pieces on the spot, and their skin and flesh rotted within a second until their skeletons were decomposed into black charcoal.
The red and gold armor flew through the air, blasting a large area of intensive firepower downwards with a circle of floating cannons around it. Vertical and horizontal lasers crisscrossed and cut between the shadow demon formations, and rain of bullets poured down with a series of continuous bombardments, constantly exploding into the sky with flames.
Iron Man from the future, accompanied by a dark bird of prey.
That's Batman's Batplane specially designed for fighting with the Justice League.
The people who came here to guard the tower were a rich second-generation duo.
"The armor you pieced together by picking up trash in an abandoned cave."
Batman caught a glimpse of the crude Mark 1 in the camp below from the plane.
"Well don't mind the appearance, that's all I had at the time."
Tony was momentarily distracted, glancing at the camp with flames blazing into the sky and the cave that had already been burned to pieces by the exploding ordnance.
"There...is a friend of mine."
"Dr. Yinsen, I know." Batman said.
"He told me how absurd my first half of life was, and he made me know that I could have lived a more meaningful life. But now, even if I do this, even after all this, I can't change the past.
My mistakes, my dead friends.”
"At least you're trying to be better."
Batman controlled the fighter plane and fired, saying coldly.
"At least when you get up and look in the mirror every day, you can look directly at the person in the mirror."
Tony chuckled.
"So you don't always have to be so annoying."
Batman snorted coldly.
"Don't get used to it."
