Chapter 921 Star Chaser: Uncle Peter, I want to team up with youChapter 921 Star Chaser: Uncle Peter, I want to team up with youThe night sky over Smallville was torn apart by a golden meteor.
Lana lay on her back on the muddy ground, her throat filled with the taste of blood from accidentally biting her tongue, her pupils reflecting the pair of deformed membrane wings that were getting closer and closer.
The monster's claws were getting closer and closer to her eyeballs.
"Stay away from her!"
The next second, Courtney's roar was heard.
The air is compressed in a short moment.
A shock wave wrapped in starlight came crashing down from above. The monster let out a sharp scream like twisted metal and was smashed into a haystack dozens of meters away.
The burning hay gradually ignited sparks, and in the center of the drifting sparks, a gold and blue figure slowly descended.
Courtney landed on one knee to cushion the impact, and the Star Staff hummed as it was stuck into the soil.
She was wearing a mask and her chestnut hair was blown by the night wind.
"Can you still stand up?"
She held out her hand to Lana, her eyes locked on the monster that was rising from the haystack.
The joint of the thing's right wing had been deformed, but what oozed out of the wound was not blood, but some kind of fluorescent green mucus.
Lana grabbed Courtney's hand and felt a layer of cool metal.
Courtney's combat gloves brought a cool feeling to her.
"You are……?"
"I'll introduce myself later."
Courtney suddenly exerted force to push Lana behind her, with the Star Staff across her chest.
Almost at the same moment, the monster's sharp claws collided with the staff, emitting a string of blinding electric light.
"Oh!"
The huge impact of the monster caused Courtney to slide back, and the soles of her boots plowed two deep grooves in the mud.
Adjusting her body shape, Courtney stood up and looked towards the monster.
The creature in front of him was not simply a creature of flesh and blood, but had a more complex structure than anything else.
The monster combines elements of insects and bats, and is aggressive and terrifying.
Its head has a compound eye structure similar to that of an insect, which is scarlet or yellow in color, has no pupils, and is filled with cold murderous intent.
The skin is gray-black or dark blue, covered with hardened tissue similar to a shell, and mucus is constantly secreted from it.
The monster's arms end in sharp claws, which look full of deadly threats.
Looking at the monster, although Courtney was a little nervous, what surged in his heart was a surging fighting spirit.
Although I don’t know what this winged monster in front of me is, this is also an opportunity to test whether I am qualified to be a superhero.
"Come on, monster, I'll blast you to dust."
As soon as Courtney finished speaking, the monster took off into the air again, and its membrane wings fully expanded, blocking out the moonlight.
Lana, who was standing next to him, saw Courtney take a deep breath and suddenly raised the Star Staff above her head.
"Come on, ugly bastard!"
The starlight bursting out from the tip of the staff was not an attack, but formed a spiral gravitational field.
Courtney took advantage of the reaction force to fly into the air, and her body completed a standard gymnastic backspin in the air.
When the monster swooped down, she flipped over just above it, clamped the middle of the star staff with her legs, and fell like an arrow!
"boom--!"
The end of the staff stabbed accurately into the monster's back.
The sticky liquid splattered on Courtney's battle suit, corroding holes that made hissing sounds.
Enduring the pain, Courtney roared angrily, twisted his waist and exerted force, and the Star Rod stirred fiercely in the wound.
"Roar!"
The monster howled loudly enough to shatter nearby glass.
Covering her ears, Courtney pulled the Star Staff out of the monster's back.
Then she raised the Star Staff and blasted the monster away.
The falling monster had not yet landed on the ground, but Courtney had already adjusted his posture.
She held the staff in both hands and raised it above her head, and all the energy nodes lit up to the extreme.
"go to hell!"
The trajectory of the Star Rod's strike was not a straight line, but an upward slash from bottom to top like hitting a baseball.
The moment the staff touched the monster's jaw, the accumulated energy violently blasted the opponent away!
"boom!"
Deafening explosions sounded all around.
The monster was directly rushed away, and slime fell like a rainstorm.
Seeing that the slime was about to touch Courtney, Courtney gritted his teeth and immediately raised the Star Wand. The force field automatically generated by the Star Wand instantly evaporated the slime.
The monster fell to the ground and smashed into the mud, causing the ground to shake slightly.
Although Courtney smashed the monster into the ground, it had not lost its mobility and staggered outwards.
Courtney landed on the ground, gasping for breath, and suddenly staggered.
Looking down, she discovered that blood was oozing out from the torn part of her left calf.
"You are hurt?!"
Lana rushed over to help her.
"It's okay, just some minor issues."
Courtney said this stubbornly, but the next moment her body became unstable and fell down.
Lana held her and fumbled for her phone from her pocket.
"No! You're hurt. I have to call the hospital."
"No, Lana, there's no need to call an ambulance." As Lana finished speaking, a voice sounded from behind her.
Hearing the familiar voice, Lana turned around in surprise and found Peter standing behind her.
"Uncle Peter!"
Lana cried out in surprise.
Peter walked slowly towards them, glanced at the sticky monster blood on the ground, and said to Lana, "Sorry, Lana, I'm late."
"No, Uncle Peter, that's not it, but can you look at her? She's hurt."
"of course."
Peter came over and supported Stargirl.
"Hold on, rookie!"
Peter put his hands under Courtney's arms and hugged her.
Courtney propped herself up with the Star Staff and winked at Peter: "Mr. Padrick, did I do well just now?"
Her smile was pale but bright in the moonlight, and black veins appeared on the skin exposed in the torn parts of her battle suit.
When Courtney saw Peter coming over, she was very excited, but she concealed her feelings and asked Peter with a little pride and a desire to be recognized by him.
"uh-huh."
Peter nodded, "Very good. So good that if you apply to team up with me as a superhero, I might agree."
Peter gently picked up Star Chaser and said to Lana, "Lana, go to the living room and turn on the light. I will help you and Star Chaser clean your wounds."
"Oh well."
Lana was stunned for a moment, took a deep breath and walked quickly towards the room.
In the room, Stargirl lay on the sofa somewhat embarrassedly, curiously watching Peter release a rune that she did not recognize with his hands.
Then he placed his palm on his wound.
The pain from the wound disappeared instantly, and a cool and comfortable feeling invaded the skin.
Feeling a slight numbness in her legs, Courtney couldn't help but start to have some wild thoughts.
"Um. Mr. Padrick, you just said you wanted to team up with me as a superhero, is that true?"
Courtney asked expectantly.
"Isn't your partner Pat Dugan?"
Peter pretended to be confused and asked the girl.
"Uh Stars and Stripes, Stars and Stripes is my assistant."
Courtney said with some guilt.
"Really? I think he is more than just your assistant."
Peter shook his head, stood up and said to Lana next to him: "Lana, hold out your hand."
Lana blushed a little and held out her arms.
Her arm was scratched when the monster attacked her just now.
Although it was not serious, the blood dyed the clothes red, which looked a bit scary.
Courtney saw Peter treating Lana's wound and stood up to look at her own wound.
To her shock, the wound had completely disappeared!Is Mr. Patrick's magic so powerful? !Reaching out her hand and touching the completely recovered fair skin, Courtney raised her head and suddenly thought of the monster just now.
"Mr. Padrick, did you see the monster just now?"
Courtney asked Peter curiously, "Is that a vampire?"
"vampire?"
"Yes, just like the recent TV series."
Courtney stood up and said to Peter, "The monster just now looked very similar to a bat. Maybe it was the legendary vampire."
"This monster looks a lot like Kurt Barlow from the TV show."
Peter turned his gaze to Courtney and asked her, "Who is Kurt Barlow?"
"The villain of the TV series Jerusalem, he is an evil vampire master who seeks to infect the entire land of Jerusalem to create an army of vampires for himself."
Peter listened to Courtney's explanation, shook his head, and said to the two: "No, that's not a vampire."
He didn't expect that Courtney, like Ciri, was also quite interested in the recently popular vampire TV series.
"Vampires are not scary."
As Peter spoke, he cast his gaze toward the dark night outside the window, his brows slightly furrowed.
Although he did not see the monster's full appearance, he had guessed what it was from the descriptions of the two people.
Walking to the window, looking at the dark night covered by dark clouds without a trace of light, he slowly said to Lana and Courtney:"Lana, Courtney, you don't know that not all demons look like vampires. In our modern age, demons are no longer red-horned monsters with thorns on their tails and split hooves, nor are they giant poisonous snakes crawling in the garden. They no longer come from hell. Sometimes, demons come from heaven."
"From heaven?"
Hearing Peter's words which seemed to have a deeper meaning, Courtney fell into deep thought.
She always felt that Peter knew what that vampire-like monster was.
But probably because he was afraid of scaring himself, Mr. Patrick didn't seem to intend to tell him the truth.
The next day, early in the morning.
Washington.
Wonder Woman Diana is investigating a museum attack by a "winged monster."
But she ran into a little trouble.
The dome of the National Museum of Washington glows golden in the sunset, and the crowds on Fountain Square are enjoying the warm breeze under the warm eyes.
"Boom! Boom!"
Suddenly, a shrill roar of an engine tore through the silence—several modified motorcycles rushed into the square like a pack of wolves.
