After a couple of moments, the barrier that my double had set up disappeared, no one else was there. Although a second later, when he appeared in front of me and merged again into one, I got his memory and burst through mentally.
He was able to convert ALL "Furies" that were there. And he succeeded due to his "brainwashing" for the most part. It all began with the phrase: "Do you believe in our One and Just God, Darkseid the Great, as I do?" To say that the ladies were dumbfounded is to say nothing, they were expecting a fight with the enemy, but in the end they met his "admirer". While their processor was trying to digest this phrase, my doppelganger began spilling them with a stream of verbal flow, which was replaced at times from the deification of Darkseid to his constructive criticism and vice versa.
They could not clearly cling to my dialogue, in the end they fell for the bait and completely relaxed, forgetting about the fight. They didn't even tense when he created four clones and they covered them with a barrier.
Imposed the illusion of combat, for those outside. And he continued to put noodles on the ears of the furies with a touch of genjutsu, which worked. Apparently even such a genius as Darkseid did not take care of the brains of his middle managers. Although I remember the girls in this detachment were also brainwashed and it is quite logical that they left this opportunity for the future.
In general, I almost managed to do this at first without money, they were imbued with sympathy for me. Those whom I knew according to the canon, I pressed on those with the weakest topic. For example, on Barda - a sense of military honor, a sense of guilt, the memory of his mother. On Halotina, her right hand with her "loving sister" complex and jealousy, as he hinted that if Darkseid still does not take such a stunning lady as her mentor, he will definitely bite. And she will be only him and nobody else's. This argument was probably the most sufficient. As the saying goes, love works wonders, and fanatical love makes the impossible possible. I put pressure on Lashina with the authority of the "Killer of God Ares", although they may not even know him, but she was imbued, and I also hinted that I am the kind of person who loves loyal subordinates and executives, do not spare traitors and idiots. Her BDSM nature approved it. The rest also succumbed to either powdering their brains, or went into neutrals, completely losing the desire to fight.
But then, unexpectedly, help came from Granny. She tried to break through the barrier, but could not. The doppelganger sensed his benefit in this and let her in, she immediately tried to attack him. But luckily, "I" decided to use the technique based on the elements of Death, I only developed it theoretically, and it is not perfect. But I decided to call it Shiton: The Touch of Death. At one touch of the fist, which was surrounded by black energy, Granny's body split from the inside to half, accompanying the rupture of internal organs with terrible pain and a cry, she died.
Although she managed to strike a double, which gave nothing.
As a result, the Furies were dumbfounded and completely believed in my strength, looking at the disfigured corpse that was scattered in pieces on the ground around me. And they agreed to follow me. And now they are in the "Inventar". And the remains of Granny as a trophy and research material are kept sealed in my stash.
And then I drew attention to the port part of the city. There was a fight (which started without me!) Between Darkseid and the hopefully future Justice League, which consisted of Diana, Batman, Superman, Green Arrow and Lantern, Martian Hunter, Flash and Shazam with Power Girl to boot.
They were carried away by the fight and did not notice me.
The guys have already united and clumsily, but still worked together. They were able to understand that from omega-rays can be fatally scooped off and have already deprived of one of Darkseid's eyes with the help of Diana's sword. But nothing happens in an attempt to deprive him of the second.
Therefore, God himself ordered me, as they say, to help them. But if anything, I do not take Darkseid for God, despite his species ...
The new rifle I got from the black market came in handy here. I strengthened it with fuin, nourished it with chakra and bullets, and also added Will. Aim and fired.
- Arrrrr!
Head shot!
It will be necessary in the future to compete with Deadshot or Deathstroke in shooting. But this is for the future, and now the battle with the blinded Darkseid.
- Good shot! - I heard from Batman that he was standing a kilometer away from me.
That's a beetle, I guessed that I would hear!
The next moment I threw a kunai with a mark in his direction and, standing in front of him, tried to take off his head.
But then a surprise awaited me! My own head was nearly blown off.
There appeared someone whom I recognized even without the "Player's Gaze" as Steppenwulf, he managed to wound me with his fiery sword THREE TIMES and immediately kicked me back to a distance of several kilometers.
I found myself under the water column.
It wasn't that hard to get out, but the wounds hurt. And they healed very slowly. Apparently this is because of the sword with which they were inflicted, he has a special one. Therefore, a deep wound on my arm, neck and stomach bothered me greatly. Life was running out fast. I had to disconnect from the fight and completely focus on my treatment. Fortunately, so far, the guys were not in danger: Shazam with Power Girl and the Martian Hunter fought Steppenwulf, and the rest with Darkseid tried to push him into the funnel that led to the Apocalypse.
It took me over ten minutes. And when I had already recovered, having greatly reduced my chakra reserve, I went to help them. They had by that time knocked out Steppenwulf and threw him through the funnel.
With all my strength, I flew to help them.
Activated Berserker Mode and melee on his head. Because there was no suitable sword or firearm for this business. Artemis' gift to this goat named Steppenwulf destroyed with his blade. Therefore, I had to go into close combat with such a monster as Lord Apocalypse.
He managed, without having healed his eyes, to fight with dignity. Respect, however, but this is bad for us.
Superman and I got the most during the fight. But through joint efforts and adjustments of Batman (by that time I did not even know what I was doing), they were able to drive him straight into the funnel. It closed, leaving us alone. And I received a message that after all the task is over and the victory is ours.
Everyone was happy, but I could only go down to the ground to the sword, which was lost during the battle by the main general of Darkseid and take it for myself as compensation.
And then he lay down on the ground and ... fell asleep!
To be continued…
