Dimension Demon's Chat Group

Chapter 299 Gabriel

"what?!"

Constantine looked utterly shocked, as if his entire worldview had been shaken.

"Your immense strength isn't something you were born with?"

"how?"

Su Haoming glanced at him and said, "You can learn dark magic, but I can't cultivate immortality?"

Cultivating immortality...

Upon hearing this word, which was full of Chinese flavor, Bruce seemed to be deep in thought.

As one of the most powerful martial arts masters on Earth, he is proficient in all 127 fighting techniques in the world, including Chinese martial arts such as Wing Chun, Tai Chi, and Shaolin Kung Fu.

Naturally, Bruce studied under many Chinese masters and gained a considerable understanding of Chinese culture.

Upon hearing the words "cultivation of immortality," he immediately realized Su Haoming's true origins.

After a moment's thought, he asked in fluent Chinese, "So, you also have a more powerful elder behind you?"

Su Haoming was taken aback upon hearing this, glanced at Bruce with some surprise, and nodded, saying, "That's right, I do have many stronger elders behind me, and they are no weaker than that bird-of-paradise man!"

Bruce said in a deep voice, "Are you sure?"

Su Haoming said confidently, "Of course!"

Bruce pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Let's try contacting them!"

As mentioned before, the current timeline is one year after the Zod incident. Bruce witnessed last year's disaster firsthand and lacks trust in Superman and all aliens.

He really didn't want to join forces with them unless absolutely necessary.

In comparison, Su Haoming has already demonstrated a bias towards the Orderly Good faction.

In addition, his undeniable human identity makes him more worthy of Bruce's trust than Superman.

"no problem!"

Su Haoming said with a smile, "Let me ask first."

After saying that, he sat cross-legged on the spot under Constantine's suspicious gaze, pretending to be in a pose with his palms facing upwards.

[Su Haoming: @Brother Lin Yu, how's the portal anchoring going?]

[Lin Yu: It was supposed to take another two days, but just now, the progress suddenly jumped a lot.]

[Lin Yu: I've been thinking about it, and I believe it might be because you were involved in a major event in that world, which made my anchor point clearer, hence this situation...]

Is there such a saying?
Su Haoming's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked, "So how's the progress now?"

[Lin Yu: Conservatively speaking, it should be completely stable in another hour.]

[Su Haoming: How stable is it?]

[Lin Yu: Just as stable as the world of group members!]

That’s no problem!

With a firm resolve, Su Haoming immediately opened his eyes and said confidently:

"Don't worry, I've already taken care of everything. If Gabriel dares to come, I'll make sure he doesn't leave alive!"

"is it?"

A clear, slightly amused voice echoed slowly through the vast bat cave.

Su Haoming's smile froze, and he stiffly turned his head to look at Constantine, whose face was equally stiff, and said:

"Tell me right now, you said those words!"

"Unfortunately……"

Constantine gritted his teeth and said, "No!"

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly turned around, his arms emerging from his sleeves and quickly coming together.

In an instant, the two patterns tattooed on his arm merged together, like a door to hell, distorting the entire space where the bat cave was located.

"Fuck-"

A piercing electric shock rang out from above, and the originally bright lights began to flicker wildly.

In an instant, the surrounding world distorted, turning into a blurry and ever-changing light and shadow.

“My dear John…”

A clear, yet playful female voice came from ahead.

A dazzling figure descended from the sky, its fair and slender bare feet piercing between the arms like sharp swords, one foot landing on Constantine's chest, slamming him hard into the ground.

"boom!"

In the next instant, a pure white, blazing light burst forth out of thin air, like a sun rising in the bat cave, instantly dispelling the thick darkness around it, tearing apart the distorted light and shadow, and stabilizing the overhead lights and the entire space of the bat cave once again.

Bruce frowned and looked up to see a tall, blonde woman who had somehow slipped into the Batcave, standing barefoot on Constantine, looking at him with disdain.

"After all these years, you're still as arrogant as ever!"

"Do you really think your little tricks can banish a real angel to hell?"

Feeling the terrifying power within him, as if it were a mountain, Constantine grinned and, enduring the pain, said with difficulty, "That's right, I really don't have the ability to banish you to hell."

"But this little trick should be enough to buy some time!"

"..."

The blonde woman frowned slightly, looked up, and sure enough, she saw that Su Haoming had taken the opportunity to rush to Angela's side, knocked her unconscious, and put her into a magical crystal ball.

A magical artifact with the power of storage, and of a type never seen before! A hint of surprise appeared on the blonde woman's, or rather Gabriel's, stunningly beautiful face.

But then, she raised her hand and summoned the power of space, trying to take away the strange crystal ball.

Fortunately, Su Haoming had anticipated this and managed to put the crystal ball into his storage ring before Gabriel could make a move.

"Be bold!"

Gabriel's eyes flashed with a cold light, and his right hand, which was already locked onto Su Haoming, suddenly clenched tightly.

"Kacha kacha——"

In an instant, the fragile space shattered, and streaks of pitch-black cracks spread and swept across the area like lightning.

A terrifying suction force suddenly erupted from the hideous black crack, pulling in the surrounding matter and energy, causing the hard alloy floor to twist and bulge, and then crack inch by inch with a piercing groan!
The walls shattered, the metal twisted, and various sophisticated high-tech devices were also affected by the cracks, torn into scrap metal.

Bruce reacted quickly, grabbing the control panel fixed to the alloy floor in front of him, thus avoiding being sucked into the crack.

He was not within Gabriel's target range, so the suction force he faced was not very strong.

However, the area directly opposite Gabriel wasn't so lucky...

Bruce's face was grim as he turned around, bracing himself against the howling wind around him.

Following his gaze, the area appeared to have fallen into a gravitational vortex.

Everything, including broken rocks, fractured steel bars, and twisted metal debris, was dragged into the deep darkness like a school of fish swallowed by a whale!
The scene was chaotic and hellish, and only Su Haoming could barely resist the terrifying suction force.

A pale blue, violent vortex erupted from his body, like a tree in a storm, trembling violently in the turmoil, yet still firmly rooted to the earth, struggling against the terrifying suction force.

Not only that, Su Haoming also grabbed Alfred beside him and used the wind rope to tie him tightly to his body, so that he would not be sucked away by the dark crack.

Upon seeing this, Bruce's pupils contracted sharply, and a long-forgotten sense of inexplicable panic welled up in his heart.

Twenty years as Batman had forged an incredibly strong heart in him, but even such a heart still had a final weakness and flaw.

That was his lifelong butler, Alfred!

Sensing Bruce's gaze, Su Haoming gritted his teeth and said to Alfred in the howling wind:

"excuse me!"

"..."

Alfred, struggling against the suction, was slightly taken aback.

The next second, his figure shot out like a cannonball.

The whistling airflow swirled around him like a whirlwind, forming a light blue shield resembling a drill bit, carrying him away from the suction and flying towards Bruce not far away.

Without any hesitation, Bruce suddenly reached out, passing through the swirling air currents on Alfred's body, and grabbed his arm.

"Click——"

Two sounds of bones cracking came simultaneously; both men's arms were injured in the reckless act.

But in any case, the old butler Alfred's life was saved!

Seeing this, Su Haoming breathed a sigh of relief, then glared fiercely at Gabriel.

"Trying to steal him, huh?"

"Then follow me!"

"boom!"

Before he could finish speaking, a violent cyclone erupted from his body.

Su Haoming stepped on the cyclone and soared into the sky, braving the drill-like pale blue hurricane, breaking through metal and rock all the way to the surface of Wayne Manor above.

"Arrogant mortal!"

Gabriel's eyes gleamed coldly as he stared at the large, broken hole in the ceiling.

In the next instant, pure white wings stretched out from behind her, with countless golden rays scattering from the edges of the wings, and white feathers falling like an illusion.

A dazzling holy light suddenly burst forth, illuminating the entire dark bat cave as if it were daytime.

Gabriel flapped his wings and soared into the sky, chasing after Su Haoming above.

And the moment she left, that terrifying suction force finally began to gradually disappear.

The gale gradually subsided, and the cracks slowly healed...

Constantine breathed a sigh of relief, grimaced as he stood up from the ground, rubbing his aching chest and looking at Bruce with a frustrated expression, saying, "This is it!"

"..."

Bruce ignored Constantine and immediately checked Alfred's injuries. Confirming that there were no other injuries besides a broken arm, he slowly turned around and said coldly:
"If I'm not mistaken, Su should have already contacted his elders."

"But we can't place all our hopes on him. We must use the time he's bought us to find allies strong enough to counter Gabriel!"

"Then what are we waiting for!" Constantine exclaimed. "Let's hurry to the Metropolis!"

Bruce shook his head as he took off his Batsuit, saying, "It's too late to go to Metropolis. I plan to go to the TV tower to help them report on the battle between Sue and Gabriel."

What a great idea!

Constantine's eyes lit up. Superman was already incredibly fast, and if he saw what was happening in Gotham City on TV, he would definitely rush over to help.

"In that case, let's hurry to the TV station!"

"No, you can't go."

Bruce changed into a suit and reached out to stop him.
