Chapter 1290: 2 Versus 1, 3 Versus 2

Even as Luke cursed the tycoon inwardly, he immediately switched targets and lashed out at the witch with his whips.

Seeing that, Tony couldn’t help but curse.

He was too familiar with this trick. A certain Russian had used these to smack him down.

But that was all there was to it.

Tony wasn’t surprised at all that Batman had obtained this technology from Ivan; if Tony wanted to make something similar, it would only take a few days for him to make something even more powerful.

It was just that he didn’t like whips, mainly because it was too difficult to master them.

While the rope darts that Batman liked to use were different from the whips, they involved similar techniques, and weren’t hard to play with.

The witch disappeared again, and Tony was shocked. “Teleportation?”

“Naturally. Be careful not to be ambushed,” Luke warned him. With a flick of one whip, he created a winding stretch of blue light around him to protect himself.

“Ah~” The witch who had just appeared over his head was hit by the tip of the whip and screamed in pain.

Tony’s ears went numb; they felt tarnished by the unpleasant sound. He raised his right hand without hesitation and fired a pulse cannon.

Caught off guard, the witch was sent flying by the white pulse cannon, her scream lingering in the air.

This pulse cannon also contained a fair amount of plasma energy and was also lethal to her.

Also, the third-generation arc reactor in Tony’s chest, created from a new element, was full of energy. Putting aside the quality of this pulse cannon, the quantity was definitely enough, and a single shot created a big hole in her chest.

With a light tap of his foot, Luke followed her like a ghost. The light disappeared from one of the plasma whips, and the gray whip quietly approached like a poisonous snake hunting prey.

Bang! Bang!

With two loud bangs, two fish-egg monsters charged out of one corner, the black light on them dimmed by half.

One of them grabbed Tony and crashed into a pile of junk and kicked up dust.

The other one charged at Luke.

Luke snorted coldly and swung the plasma whip in his other hand, sending out countless blue streaks.

Chi Chi Chi Chi!

With the sound of a hot knife cutting through lard, the black light on the fish-egg monster disappeared.

The next moment, the monster broke into dozens of similarly shaped pieces and fell to the ground with loud bangs; it had been cut into black pieces in the air by the high-speed plasma whip.

At the same time, the other plasma whip suddenly lit up and hit the witch’s neck.

Luke wanted to see if she could continue jumping around if she was cut into pieces like a puppet.

This time, the witch didn’t dodge. Instead, a very dark black light shield rose from her body. The plasma whip bounced off the light shield, and its blue light faded drastically.

Alfred immediately warned Luke that the plasma whip was temporarily overloaded.

Luke wasn’t too surprised. The black light shield was very resistant to energy attacks.

He simply directed the enchanted bat darts in the subway station to attack from all sides, before he lashed out with the other plasma whip, which was fully charged.

In the end, the golden light on the bat darts disappeared after they hit the light shield, and the blue electricity of the second whip also swiftly faded.

Luke wasn’t discouraged.

The witch’s black light shield could block energy attacks, but that didn’t mean it would last forever. He wanted to see how strong the light shield was.

On the other side, a fish-egg monster was sent flying by a plasma cannon through a brick wall.

Tony’s brightly-colored Mark 6 was covered in dust, but at least it hadn’t crashed like the “Sneaky” suit.

Tony was quite angry when he blew up the fish-egg monster. This was the second time he had been knocked down by this sort of monster, and it was quite embarrassing.

Without thinking, he followed up with a second shot and hit the enemy in the air.

But this time, his attack didn’t send the other party flying. The white light beam continued to deal damage as it burned the other party’s body.

Tony had switched primarily to energy output with this attack.

He placed both palms together, and the white light beam immediately doubled in size. The black light on the fish-egg monster only flashed for a moment before it disappeared.

The white beam of light burned the monster to a crisp, filling the air with smoke.

Frowning, Luke shut down Sharp Nose; otherwise, he might pass out from the smell.

He left Tony’s side with a look of disdain and approached the witch. The two plasma whips lit up at the same time and he immediately swung them.

The witch still didn’t move, but the black shield around her suddenly disappeared, or more precisely, retracted into her body.

The two plasma whips left two deep wounds on her body, almost cutting through all the way.

Unlike before, however, the cuts were no longer black. Instead, they glowed with a dark black light.

Sensing that something wasn’t right, Luke shouted, “Let’s go!”

Tony had just roasted the last fish-egg monster when he heard the shout, and he subconsciously followed.

He trusted Charcoal Head’s judgment in battle.

Previously, he had been half a beat too slow, and his armor had crashed from the explosion. He didn’t want to experience that a second time.

The witch, however, grinned maliciously. “Too late.”

As soon as she said that, her body abruptly shattered and turned into a thick and twisting beam of black light.

It cut through the air and hit their suits at an unbelievable speed.

Before Luke could react, the black beam shot at him and Tony.

Both their armor systems warned at almost the same time that their suits were severely damaged.

What was even more terrifying was that when the black beam of light bounced between them twice in less than a second, its power didn’t decrease, but actually increased, and it also grew thicker by one-third.

The damage to both their suits increased rapidly, from 1% to 7%.

Luke and Tony both reacted and tried to dodge, but not only was the black beam astonishingly powerful, it also had a strange “lockdown” effect.

Where they could have initially flown out of the subway station with a thought, they were now pressed to the ground by the beam of light, like grasshoppers on a string.

“How much longer can you last?” he asked Tony.

Tony’s answer was very blunt. “At this rate, ten seconds at most.”

Thinking quickly, Luke suddenly made a decision. He immediately used his virtual screen to activate an auxiliary function.

Two nozzles opened up on the back of the armor, and white smoke spurted out.

Tony couldn’t help but ask, “What are you doing?”

Looking at the 17% damage to his armor, Luke just said, “Saving our lives.”

This was a small auxiliary prop. Sometimes, this special smoke was more effective than optical camouflage since it could block most light and heat from detection.
