20 Defence

Parademon after Parademon flew out of the portal. There were millions of them, if not billions.

The Mindless creatures were all rushing to their deaths. He didn't feel a shred of mercy while looking at them, even if he knew it wasn't their fault.

As soon as they came within range, the shields he had just created activated as the creatures slammed themselves into the shields, destroying themselves.

Following the shield's activation, the planetary defenceman systems immediately became active. He saw the various anti-air cannons raise their heads as they aimed for their targets.

*Boom*

A loud sound was heard as the closest cannon fired a shot. Turning around to look at the weapon, Maxwell smiled.

The defence systems were working perfectly, as he thought so, he felt the ground shake again as another shot was fired.

Looking up at the creatures being shot at, all Maxwell could see was diced parts of the Parademon falling and sliding off the shield.

The canons were a new weapon he had designed, their shots were powerful because it was compressed air. Air so compressed it could cut through things.

The barrel for the cannon was designed like a sieve, which meant that each one shot contained tens of powerful shots.

They weren't all, as Maxwell could see several small spherical objects flew out of the large containers beside the cannons.

They varied in size as some of them were as big as him while the others were small enough to fit in the palm of his hand.

The attack had yet to even start, and there were already thousands of Parademons dead.

If there were others like him trapped with a Parademon then this would be a tragedy, but unfortunately, he couldn't care less.

This may not affect Darkseid's army by even a bit, but it would satisfy him for now. Looking past the army of parademons who as usual were rushing to their deaths.

Maxwell could see a giant humanoid figure just floating out there in space as he looked down on the planet. The creature, even just by sight alone, seemed to stand at a height of more than seven (7) feet tall.

Spotting two horns that made it look like a bull, in its hands was a massive axe. However, he wasn't alone.

Excluding the billions of parademons that just keep jumping out of the boomtube, he could also see three females behind the bull-like man.

"They sent three, they must really want to do away with this world" Maxwell smiled as he slowly began to float towards the shield.

He had no plans to go out of the protection of the shield to fight. He wasn't afraid of the four, rather it was more of a move to make them know that  their army was useless in a fight against him.

"Drusian, you tempt thy fate to challenge Darkseid"

Maxwell heard a voice say loudly out of seemingly nowhere, looking up he saw the New God's mouth moving before flashing a smile in understanding.

"Talking in space and yet sound can still reach me, expected no less from a New God" Maxwell said

"You think thy shield shall protect you forever" the New God said as he brought out a small cube
