"Cough, cough, cough!"
Kalibak was blasted to the ground, kicking up a lot of dust.
Under the immense gravitational impact, a huge deep pit was blasted into the ground.
Kalibak lay in the deep pit, gasping for breath.
After being ravaged by Eric's fists, he didn't even have the strength to stand up now.
Although he hadn't suffered fatal injuries, his strength was severely depleted by the continuous blows, and it was impossible for him to recover in a short time.
With a "boom," Eric descended from the sky, landing in the deep pit where Kalibak was.
Wonder Woman and the others, who were dealing with Parademons on the battlefield, stopped their movements and cast astonished gazes at Eric.
Clark, who had just caught the plane, put it down in an open space far away and flew over as well.
Behind him were the shouts and screams of the passengers inside the plane.
Courtney and the others watched Eric nervously.
Although they didn't know Kalibak's identity, almost everyone could tell that this ape-like fellow was definitely the leader of this group of alien creatures.
"Looks like the war is about to end!"
Hourman put down the fire hydrant he was holding and said to the others, a little nervously.
"Uh-huh, that ape doesn't seem to be Homelander's opponent!"
Midnight Doctor swallowed, adjusted his glasses, and prepared to use his high-tech glasses to analyze the "ape's" origin and characteristics.
"How is it?"
Courtney had initially been somewhat dejected staring at the Star Scepter in Eric's hand, but she quickly adjusted her mindset.
"Uh, sorry, Midnight Doctor's glasses can't detect the opponent's identity information either."
The dark-skinned girl said to her friends in frustration, "All information is unknown."
"Looks like your glasses aren't always reliable."
Hourman shrugged and said to Midnight Doctor.
"It's not an all-purpose tool that can tell you the answer to all the world's problems just by wearing it."
Midnight Doctor replied to the short-tempered Hourman.
She knew that Hourman hadn't gone to college because of his uncle's obstruction, and his mood had never been very good, so she didn't care about what he said.
"However,"
She said, adjusting her glasses, "Homelander's strength has grown a lot. He… he's even stronger than before!"
"I still think…"
Courtney didn't quite agree with Midnight Doctor, she turned her gaze to Clark, "I still think Superman catching a falling plane from the sky is more impressive!"
"They're both freaks anyway!"
Hourman shrugged and said to the others.
Eric, who was evaluated as a "freak," slowly walked towards Kalibak.
"You!"
Kalibak propped up half of his body, breathing slightly, facing the man who brought him immense pressure.
At this moment, his heart no longer held the initial ambitious desire for conquest, nor the desire to defeat the opponent and display his bravery, but an uncontrollable tremor.
Facing this man who had suppressed and beaten him from the beginning, fear arose in his heart for the first time.
With a look of terror in his eyes, Kalibak supported himself with his right hand on the ground and slowly retreated.
"You are that Kryptonian!"
Kalibak hesitantly asked Eric.
"Looks like you're not completely hopeless!"
Eric snorted coldly, walked over, grabbed the collar of his tattered armor, and pulled him up. ☞ ♦ ♦ ♦
"How dare you do evil in my territory?"
Grabbing his armor, Eric lifted him into the air and sternly asked him.
"I… I didn't expect you to…"
Fear appeared in Kalibak's eyes, and he spoke less coherently than before.
"Stand up and look at me!"
Eric ignored the change in his attitude and sternly rebuked him with a cold voice.
Boundless coldness emanated from his eyes, as if it could solidify everything around him.
Naked killing intent overflowed from within, almost solidifying into a tangible presence.
Kalibak, under the watchful eyes of Wonder Woman and Clark, spoke words that almost stunned everyone present.
"You won, Kryptonian, I choose to surrender!"
Yes, the New God of Apokolips, one of Darkseid's most elite warriors, chose to surrender!
He was not a complete coward, but he believed that under unfavorable combat conditions, this was the most beneficial choice for him.
He believed that the opponent would not directly kill him.
Because as long as the opponent understood the existence of Apokolips, he would not lay a hand on him.
As long as he reorganized his forces, he could come back again.
At that time, he would tear this Kryptonian into pieces to vent his hatred.
"Oh? You want to surrender?"
Eric looked coldly at the so-called New God of Apokolips before him, feeling quite surprised.
"No!"
"I do not accept surrender!"
As soon as Eric's voice fell, he moved the part of his right hand armor near Kalibak's neck.
Eric's voice was filled with undisguised killing intent.
"I… I was defeated by you!"
Seeing that Eric seemed unwilling to accept his surrender, Kalibak seemed a little panicked.
He immediately reached out his hand to Eric, explaining that he had no ill intentions now.
"Can surrendering after being defeated solve all conflicts?"
Eric sneered, "You think too simply!"
With a boom, to Kalibak's shocked gaze, Eric's fist slammed into his cheek.
Suffering such a heavy blow, Kalibak spat out blood, flying backward like a batted baseball, and then slammed heavily into the rock wall of the deep pit.
"Hooch! Hooch!"
His vision went black for a moment, and Kalibak, whose consciousness was almost plunged into darkness, struggled to suppress the pain within his body to remain conscious.
Eric's punch just now had almost made his soul feel like it was being ripped out.
"Who do you think you are? How dare you ignore me? Do you think you can run rampant and unopposed in my world without having to take responsibility for it? Is this world that simple?"
Standing again in front of Kalibak, who was kneeling on the ground, Eric asked in a tone tinged with killing intent.
At this moment, Kalibak, whose eyes were somewhat dazed from the beating, knelt on the ground, his consciousness already somewhat scattered.
He whispered to Eric, "The Dark… Dark Lord will…"
Before he could finish speaking, Eric interrupted him.
"No! Your father won't hide here, he won't hide behind you! He won't appear here!"
Saying that, he threw another punch, hitting Kalibak's right cheek.
Bang!
Accompanied by the explosion of air, Kalibak let out a painful grunt and fell to the ground again.
The surrounding dust was pushed back by the shockwave of the punch.
Rachel, standing next to Mera in the distance, watched her brother's brutal appearance.
She nervously swallowed and asked Mera, "Is brother angry?"
In her impression, her brother had never displayed such a brutal aura as he did now.
"Perhaps."
Mera tossed her hair, looking at Eric with a complex expression.
"Your brother has never been a good-tempered person!"
Otherwise, he wouldn't have done something as crazy as lifting Atlantis from the bottom of the sea and placing it in the desert.
This last sentence was what Mera said to herself in her heart.
Although Mera had opinions about Eric's character and conduct, she didn't particularly dislike Eric.
On the contrary, she had a special emotion towards Eric.
It was a feeling of hating him, yet being irresistibly drawn to him.
She didn't have this special feeling for Arthur.
She saw him more as a partner, which was why she felt a little annoyed when she heard Eric call her "Queen of the Sea."
Under the gaze of Mera and the others, Eric's expression remained unchanged.
Kalibak, humiliated repeatedly, finally rose up. He used all his strength to stand up and threw his fist towards Eric.
This was his full counterattack fueled by rage!
Using all his greatest strength!
The lightning-fast fist was caught by Eric.
"You can still stand?!"
Eric tilted his head, showing a slightly surprised expression.
