[Comprehensive British and American] Flying around the sun

"Glad to see you're still alive, my brave Ms. Pate." Luthor said in a smooth voice as he walked into the ward.

"Thanks to you." Pat Lawrence turned his head and replied with a chuckle, "I'm glad to see you're still alive, too."

"It stands to reason that you shouldn't be injured so badly." Luther walked to the hospital bed and looked down at her, "I remember you have more than one Superman medicine in stock. Or are you so arrogant that you forgot to take the medicine and ran to rescue you the information?"

"Quite the opposite. I was fully prepared." Lawrence shrugged, "but she could still hurt me...I don't know how she did it, Luthor. We gotta get ready, the mad woman becomes Stronger than the data."

"She hasn't been seen in public for a long time." Luther whispered, "I don't know how far her abilities are now, and what she can do."

"You are in such a hurry to complete the construction of the anti-wave device. I guess you want to finish all this as soon as possible before she becomes irresistible. But you don't have enough time and opportunity." Lawrence glanced at him critically, and then Withdrew his gaze.

"You're right, Pete." Luthor was sitting on another chair, and moved his fingers when he heard that, "Even though Batman has given me great help, it's still in the experimental stage...here It's a safe testing ground. I can't build it in mine, it's easy to be spotted by Superman."

"You still don't fully believe me?" Lawrence asked. "I thought my sincerity had been evident enough over the years that I don't think you haven't noticed the change in me."

"No, I'm just biding my time," Luther said. "I trust you, Pete. You're a very smart man."

"It's not so easy for smart people to trust a former enemy... If I'm really smart, I'm afraid I'm working for the regime now." Lawrence said calmly, "Superman hates me now, and was imprisoned in the White Tower last time Instead of executing him on the spot, I'm afraid it's just because he didn't ask the Qi girl's opinion, so he didn't dare to do it... How interesting."

"You are my friend, that's enough." Luther said with a slight smile, "After all, people know that Lex Luthor never makes friends with people who are not smart."

"It's really my pleasure. Don't worry too much. There will always be a way..." Lawrence leaned back on the pillow, lost in thought for a moment.Then, suddenly, she said, "Did you manage to get the marker on Superman?"

"Otherwise what do you think I'm doing here at this hour?" said Luthor. "Thank you for the idea of ​​putting it in your cigarettes. I didn't know you had a habit of smoking."

"Actually, there was," said Lawrence languidly, "during my master's and Ph.D. I was occasionally distracted by stupid human beings, and once I think it was as slow as that." There's nothing wrong with suicide...I can't believe you haven't felt that way, Luther."

Luther smiled slightly.He looked at Lawrence's face that had always been a bit contemptuous for decades: "You are right, there was once. At that time, you or I were still quite young. I think young people have some intense emotions. There is nothing wrong with that. If I remember correctly, you were 15 years old when you were doing your Ph.D. at the University of Arizona, right?"

"The great genius Luthor is willing to condescend to carve out a place in his most precious human brain for an unknown person like me." Lawrence was still looking at the ceiling in a daze, his tone was light and slow, and his voice rose at the end of the sentence. "However, I think it takes a lifetime to make up for the wrong things you did when you were young, don't you?"

"I hope the wrong thing you say is that you got into the habit of smoking underage, not that you failed to murder a girl when you were young." Luthor raised his eyebrows and said, "It makes me think that you joined the Rebel Army just to Against her, Pate."

"Don't call me Pate, Luther." Lawrence finally withdrew her eyes and sat up. She flipped the quilt neatly and was about to get out of bed.

"You want to wear a battle suit? Now?" Luther said in surprise, "Let me see your wounds."

"It's actually not as serious as it looks." Lawrence said, offering him his arm. "I don't feel any pain when Superman's medicine is over. What a coincidence that each of us has built a reverse wave device at one time and thought it was restraint." The key to the girl...remember the one I got back from the old NRC site? I'm going to talk to Batman."

"I hope my thoughts and his ideas can be helpful to you. Bad bandaging method. Who treated your wound?" Luthor commented, grabbing a roll of bandages to re-tighten her injured arm.

"Myself," Lawrence replied deadpan, her eyes lowered. "Usually it was Batwoman who helped me."

"You resemble her in a way," Luther whispered. "She died well, Lawrence."

"I know." Lawrence retracted his arms, put on his coat, and walked out with Luther.They said goodbye just outside the door, Luther hesitated for a moment, but turned his head.But he didn't say anything in the end, he just watched Lawrence walk through the long corridor, his figure blurred into an indistinct color block.

……

"I don't think Batman trusts me," Clark said.

"It's not like that, Clark." Audrey sat down beside him, smiled slightly, and turned her head, "He just can't trust us like Bruce. Not just you, but also me."

"I don't know if I would have become like that if those things happened to you, Audrey." Clark also turned his head, watching Audrey gently press her face into his palm , his gaze softened a lot, "I think that's why Batman won't let me fight Superman...or maybe temporarily."

"I think he's right." Audrey curled her lips, "But I also think we need you to fight."

"You also feel that Qi Girl is the real threat." Clark whispered, "but I don't know why. I don't think she is stronger than Superman. Of course, maybe it's because she didn't lose control, or she kept her hand; But it's easier to destroy than to rule and build, and I can't think of a reason why power should exist after Superman is defeated."

"We can't stay here forever, Clark." Audrey said with a smile at him. "After the battle, this devastated world needs to be repaired, repaired and rebuilt, and these burdens will fall on Batman. Justice League The vast majority of people may surrender after Superman is gone, but that will not include Qi Girl... If you can't beat her, it will all happen again."

Clark stroked her hair lightly.The beautiful blond hair that had been burned near the sun had grown back and looked the same - but they both knew there must be something different.

hum!

The alarm sounded wildly.Audrey quickly sat up straight and stood up with Superman.

Bruce strode out and yelled at them, "Come in—Superman has located the shifter! He's coming!"

"It's faster than I expected, but fortunately Luthor's marking agent is effective. We should have half a minute..." Lawrence and Luthor stood near the plane shifter and quickly disassembled it with Batman, "We The transfer device must be transferred away, otherwise you will not be able to return to the original universe."

"Or worse, Superman will locate your dimension and invade it." Luthor said solemnly, "He did express this idea to me."

"You go now, Luther." Batman grabbed Luther's arm and said urgently, "Superman can't find you here. He can't stand betrayal, and we still need your spy status."

"It's too late." Luthor kept moving his hands. Hearing this, he gave him a wry smile, "Unless I use the portal, I can't leave here before Superman arrives. But the watchtower no longer exists, and the opportunity of the portal It shouldn't be wasted on me. So until then, let me give something last."

"Barry!" Bruce snapped, "Go and bring Cyborg back—we need the portal!"

boom!

The Rock Dome suddenly collapsed.The heavy lead door was pushed down by a huge force, and the long-lost skylight shone down from the huge hole, making the floating smoke and dust sparkle.

"That's meaningless." A figure in a red cloak landed slowly, "Because I'm here. I will kill you and find that world."

His face was blurred in the backlight, but everyone knew who he was.He descended from the sky like a judgment, and like a judgment, he announced the ending he had planned.

"I'm so disappointed, Lex." Superman said, turning his head indifferently, "You betrayed me."

Two scarlet hot gazes shot out following these words, and shot straight at Luthor.But a hand suddenly stretched out to block the two lasers, Clark pushed the heat of the lasers away from the transfer device step by step, and then, the same two hot eyes from his eyes met them.

"Who betrayed whom, Superman?" Luthor's hand touched the lead cover of the kryptonite gun, but he worried that Clark would not open it.He blocked the figure of Lawrence and Batman dismantling the transfer device behind him, holding the gun horizontally in his hand.

"We gave you stability, tranquility, and peace!" Superman's hot gaze disappeared at the same time as Clark's, and he pressed a button angrily, "How dare you not be grateful for it?"

Another heart-shattering heavy sound followed, and Clark raised his head in disbelief, looking at the huge figure that completely obscured the beam of light that had just been thrown into the base again: "You control Doomsday?"

"Don't get in the way," Superman said indifferently, and Doomsday jumped up with a growl, slamming Clark hard into the wall.One after another continuous loud noises came, and countless planks were destroyed and collapsed.

Bruce grabbed the kryptonite bomb and rushed over. Only Luthor raised the kryptonite gun resolutely in front of the transfer device, aiming at the figure of Superman.

"No one is grateful for a freedom taken away, Superman," he said softly.

"Cyborg!" Batman yelled, turning his head as he unplugged the last few cables.As a golden flash came from a distance, the purple light of the portal slowly took shape.

Clark shot two hot gazes at Doom's neck, and while it was screaming in pain, Bruce threw a kryptonite bomb into its mouth.It slumped to the ground, and though it only delayed for a moment, it was enough—they were sprinting toward the diverter.

The portal opened wider and wider until it began to flicker steadily.

Superman lowered his face and took a deep breath. Anyone familiar with this scene knew that it was a precursor to his deadly frozen breath.

"Nice to meet you, my friends." Luther said softly, and he pressed the trigger resolutely.

boom!

The kryptonite bullet pierced through Superman's shoulder, but the extremely low temperature airflow mixed with ice and snow had already swept in. Luthor stood where he was and closed his eyes with a smile.The portal was completely formed, and with a flash of light, everyone disappeared in place.

Superman saw their disappearing figures and crushed the bullet into powder.He raised his head full of anger, ready to smash the frozen traitor into pieces.

But his movements suddenly froze, as if the person who was attacked by the frozen breath was himself.Superman saw that standing at the end of the cold wind enough to form an iceberg was not Lex Luthor who had turned into an ice sculpture as he wished.

Before Audrey's cloak was completely down, she straightened her back and slowly withdrew a raised hand.The ice and air currents that were enough to condense the air silently turned into drops of water, which fell on the ground like a thin rain.She watched Superman approach step by step from the light, into the blank darkness.

Unrighteous Luthor is really a good person :( It would be great if he didn't have to sacrifice this time...
