Chapter 339: Situation Escalates
When Yang Le obtained the Map of the Research Institute from the White-Clothed Mutant, he had complained that the designer of this Research Institute was worse than an amateur. If something unexpected happened and the Elevator broke down, wouldn't everyone be trapped Underground?
Between floors, besides the Elevator, there were only Ventilation Shafts. The moment Yang Le saw the Design Blueprint of the Research Institute, one thought came to mind.
"If I transformed into Armadillo Kong and came here, wouldn't that be a clean sweep?"
But this thought had just surfaced when Yang Le himself rejected it. Unless there was some deep-seated hatred, a Research Institute like Cadmus was definitely more valuable to keep than to destroy.
Moreover, the Illuminati's only enemy was the Justice League. Even Batman, the most ruthless in the League, wouldn't make such an extermination decision. After all, information still needed to be collected. If the Room collapsed, then only Cement Debris would be salvaged.
"The person who designed this Research Institute is truly a genius." Robin wanted to swear, but considering that Megan, the Girl, was listening, he could only say sarcastically.
"Can't Superboy fly us up?" Wally asked. "I remember Superman can fly."
"Superboy cannot fly." Yang Le held down the eager Superboy. "Superboy was cultivated using half Kryptonian Gene and half Earthling Gene. His Earthling Gene suppressed his Kryptonian Ability, among which he doesn't have the Ability of Flight. But his jumping power is very strong, and leaping over High-rise buildings is still no problem."
Superboy looked at his Hands in Shock. He originally thought he should be similar to Superman, but he didn't expect himself to be just a degraded version of the other.
In fact, it's not just Flight, he also doesn't have Heat Vision. Not only that, even the Superpower he possesses has been weakened. It was evident from the confrontation with Dr. Juggernaut just now. If it were the real Superman, he could take down Dr. Juggernaut with one Hand, but Superboy was faintly suppressed by the opponent. If Aqualad hadn't lent a Hand, they might have really been wiped out by the opponent.
In general, Superboy is an all-round inferior version of Superman.
"What do we do now?" Kid Flash leaned out and looked at the terrain of the Elevator Shaft. "There are too many obstacles inside, I can't run up."
"The length of the Bat-Grappling Hook is also not enough." Robin looked at the Distance and could only shake his head. "And there's someone who obviously won't let us go."
"Boom!"
Dr. Juggernaut threw off the Debris pressing on his Body, roared, and charged towards Yang Le and the others again.
"It seems we have to deal with this obstacle first." The Red Horns on Yang Le's head lit up. Dr. Juggernaut had just charged halfway when the Wall on his left was completely torn down and pressed onto Dr. Juggernaut's Body.
"Brothers!" Yang Le shouted at Superboy. The latter immediately understood, stomped his Right Foot hard, and borrowed the force to Charge towards the suppressed Dr. Juggernaut.
Dr. Juggernaut had just broken free when Superboy punched him squarely in the Face. The unreservedly huge force overturned the unsteady Juggernaut to the Ground.
Before Dr. Juggernaut landed, Aqualad, who had been brought behind Juggernaut by Kid Flash, swung out the Meteor Hammer made of Water flow fiercely. With a muffled sound, Dr. Juggernaut crashed through the Wall and was smashed into the Room next to it.
Before everyone could catch their breath, Dr. Juggernaut, who had just been knocked down, actually stood up again, and his Body was still constantly changing. The original blue-grey Muscle kept bulging, and finally turned into a Grey Carapace like Armor. Two Red Horns drilled out of his Forehead, looking like a larger version of Yang Le.
"Juggernaut Serum plus Gene Mutant Ability, it was originally just my hypothesis." A hoarse Sound squeezed out from Dr. Juggernaut's throat. The Red Glow in his Eyes intensified, making it difficult to tell if he still had Reason.
"Previous Experiments have always been failures. Today, I was originally prepared to take the newly debugged Serum for Experiment, but unexpectedly encountered an Unexpected Situation..."
Superboy didn't intend to listen to his Nonsense. He jumped over, preparing to give Dr. Juggernaut another Punch. The Horns on the latter's head shone with Red Glow, and with a boom, Superboy was pressed to the Ground at an even faster Speed, even creating an Outline in the Ground.
"Superboy!" Aqualad was just about to run over to check on his Teammate's condition when he was also pressed to the Ground.
Aqualad being pressed down was like a Signal. The Teenagers were pressed to the Ground one after another. Superboy touched the Ground with both Hands, gritting his Teeth and trying to struggle up from the Ground.
"Ugh ah ah ah!"
Robin, Speedy, and Kid Flash cried out in Pain in unison. They didn't have Super Strength and Body of Steel. This Pressure was obviously not something they could withstand.
Seeing this, Yang Le also used Telepathic Ability and applied it to the three of them, helping them resist part of the Pressure. Only then did he prevent them from being crushed into Mincemeat.
"I originally thought I would never succeed in my life." Dr. Juggernaut looked at his Hands obsessively. "But Fate obviously favors me. This one in ten thousand Success Rate appeared on me."
"This proves that I am right!" Dr. Juggernaut looked at Superboy venomously. "Those Big Shots are wrong! They actually want to use you to replace me! My Titan Project is irreplaceable! Not even Kryptonian can!"
Dr. Juggernaut waved his Hand casually, and Superboy, who was originally pressed on the Ground, suddenly flew up and then floated in front of him.
"What do you have to compare with me!" Dr. Juggernaut suddenly swung his Right Fist. The huge force even made the Air Wail. Superboy grunted and was about to fly backwards, but he had just flown out less than a meter when Dr. Juggernaut used his Ability to Control him in Original Place.
"When I deal with you, I can let those Big Shots see my Value." Dr. Juggernaut once again controlled Superboy to be in front of him, slowly raising his Right Hand, obviously preparing to punch again.
"Those... sneaky Guys are right..."
Doctor turned his head and found that the Sound was coming from Robin. This surprised him very much. He knew that even Aqualad and Superboy, these two Superhuman, were suppressed to the point of being unable to make a Sound. How did Robin, an Ordinary Person, do it?
'Mr. Yang, if you don't come again, we might really die here.' Robin notified Yang Le again through Mind Link, still buying Time with his Words.
"You have always only thought about being subservient to others, but Superboy does not submit to anyone. Just this point alone, you can't compare with him!"
"I'll tear your mouth apart!" Dr. Juggernaut dropped Superboy, took a big step and charged towards Robin's Direction. Looking at the ferocious Demon in front of him, even the battle-hardened Robin couldn't help but feel Fear. Coupled with the fact that he couldn't move now, Robin, without a Method, could only close his Eyes.
"Boom!"
Another loud Sound. Robin, who had closed his Eyes, did not feel Pain. Curiosity made him slowly open his Eyes.
