Eudemons Qinglong in American manga

Chapter 253 A woman’s kindness, Leopard Girl Barbara

What?

Selina was stunned for a moment after hearing Roy's words.

Although the collections in the museum were all genuine, she did not expect that people would actually come to the museum to steal things.

This is not Gotham, but a metropolis guarded by Superman, Wonder Woman and others.

Here, let alone robbing a museum, even if you rob a convenience store, you may encounter Superman or Wonder Woman.

Just when Selina was about to continue questioning Roy, the museum guards came to the exhibition hall and began to organize the evacuation of tourists.

After seeing the guards coming in, Roy said to Selina:

"You go out with the guard first, and I'll go over and take a look."

"good!"

Selina replied quickly.

flash!

Without any hesitation, Roy decisively used Flash and left the exhibition hall, arriving at the museum office area that was not open to the public.

After flashing back, he continued to circulate the power of the stars.

Invisible!

Like flash, invisibility is also a little move he developed.

After covering his whole body with the power of the stars, he can not only achieve visual invisibility, but also prevent detection by means such as infrared rays or electromagnetic waves.

To put it simply, you can avoid being scanned by infrared thermal imaging or radar.

After entering the invisible state, Roy looked at the robber this time.

When Xinwense Baqi sensed the other party, he knew that the robber this time was not an ordinary person, but a superhuman with superpowers.

However, after coming over, he discovered that he actually knew the robber in front of him.

Leopard girl!

The robber currently looking for something in the office area is none other than Wonder Woman Diana's old rival, Barbara the Cheetah.

How could it be her?

While searching for information about Wonder Woman on the Internet, he saw reports that Cheetah had been captured and imprisoned in Belliver, a prison specifically for superhuman criminals.

However, now, Leopard Girl, who was supposed to be imprisoned in Bellliv Prison, was attacking the guards who tried to stop her while rummaging through the boxes to find the goal of her trip.

Although I don’t know what Barbara the Leopard Girl is looking for.

However, after seeing the leopard girl Barbara, Roy unconsciously thought of a man.

Rob Lucci!

An animal type, cat fruit, leopard form esper, and a esper who has completed the awakening of the fruit.

Although Rob Lucci and Barbara the Leopard look nothing alike, the current form of Barbara the Leopard looks very much like Lucci's human-animal form.

From a personal aesthetic point of view, Roy feels that Lu Qi's human-animal form is more beautiful than the transformation form of Barbara the Leopard.

Of course, this is just his personal opinion.

After discovering that the robber this time was Barbara the Leopard, Roy did not immediately stop her. Instead, he recalled the information about Barbara the Leopard in his mind.

Whether in comics or movies, the figure of Barbara the Leopard has appeared.

But Barbara's paths to becoming Cheetah Girl in the comics and movies are completely different.

To be precise, even in the comics, Barbara's path to becoming Leopard Girl is different.

In the beginning, Barbara was able to become the Leopard Girl because she was possessed by the ancient African god Urtzkartaga, thus gaining immortality and strength.

However, because she was not a virgin, she was possessed by the ancient god Urtzkartaga, causing her to become bloodthirsty and warlike in her half-animal form.

In the New 52 era, Barbara became the Leopard Girl because she stole the God-killing Blade possessed by the Cheetah Goddess of the Thane tribe from the storage room of the Magic Artifacts of the Sky Eye Society.

After stabbing her chest with the God-killing Blade, she gained the power given by the Cheetah Goddess and became the Leopard Girl.

In the movie, Barbara's method of becoming Leopard Girl is much simpler.

Wishing stone!

She first made a wish on the wishing stone to become like Diana.

Later, she made a second wish to Maxwell Lord, who had become the new carrier of the Wishing Stone, asking Maxwell Lord to turn himself into an apex predator.

As a result, she lost her human appearance and became a bloodthirsty and angry cheetah superhuman.

Although he has never come into contact with the Leopard Girl Barbara before, Roy knows that the Barbara in this universe is not the Leopard Girl transformed by the wishing stone.

Because he specifically searched for the two keywords Wonder Woman and 1984.

Then it was discovered that the Wishing Stone incident did not occur in 1984.

Although it is still uncertain whether Barbara has obtained the power of the ancient African god Urtzkartaga or the power of the Cheetah Goddess of the Thane tribe, one thing is certain, that is, Barbara can become a leopard girl because of the power of the gods.

reason.

After recalling the origin of Barbara the Leopard, Roy recalled what kind of power Barbara the Leopard had.

In the movie, Barbara the Leopard's performance is not outstanding.

However, in the comics, her performance is not as eye-catching.

Not to mention his strength, speed, physique, and cheetah-like senses that far exceed those of ordinary people.

In the New 52 period of comics, Barbara the Panther once scratched the leg of Barry Allen, the Flash, while he was running at high speed.

The most important thing is that Barbara bit Superman Clark and infected Clark into a half-man, half-leopard. He completely lost his self-thinking and only thought about killing monsters.

During that period, Barbara, the Panther Girl, single-handedly defeated the entire Justice League and gained a certain upper hand.

Although this is a plot that takes place in a personal magazine, it still illustrates to a certain extent the upper limit of what Barbara the Leopard can achieve.

When Roy recalled the information about the Leopard Girl Barbara, Barbara knocked down all the guards who came to stop him and tried hard to find the goal of his trip.

After watching Barbara's battle live, Roy had a rough judgment on Barbara's strength.

One thing is certain, that is, the Leopard Girl Barbara in this universe is far from as strong as the one in the personal comics of the New 52 period.

Although she quickly defeated all the guards who tried to stop her, Roy didn't think Barbara had the strength to compete with Superman.

Putting aside whether Barbara can scratch or bite Superman, her strength and speed are far inferior to Superman.

Even if her claws are really as sharp as in the comics, she still has to keep up with Superman's speed.

Roy originally just wanted to see what Barbara was looking for and how Diana could stop Barbara.

But plans can't keep up with changes.

Although he is invisible at this time, he cannot be detected by the naked eye or scientific instruments such as infrared thermal imaging.

However, this does not mean that he is absolutely undetectable.

Barbara, who was rummaging through the boxes and looking for something, suddenly stopped.

Then, he looked at Roy's location.

Has it been discovered?

Roy frowned slightly when he saw Leopard Girl Barbara looking at him warily and getting ready to fight.

Obviously, Leopard Girl Barbara's extraordinary perception is not just a physical perception, but also involves the field of mysticism.

Otherwise, even if she had the perception of a cheetah, she would never be able to discover Roy's existence.

Although Leopard Girl Barbara couldn't see Roy, she felt an instinctive sense of crisis after noticing his presence.

This was a sense of crisis she had never felt before.

Even when she was fighting Diana, she never felt such a strong sense of crisis.

If it were normal times, Barbara would definitely attack without saying a word.

But at this time, she became hesitant.

Time passes little by little.

After discovering that Roy, who was invisible, had no intention of stopping her, Barbara ignored him and continued to search for the goal of her trip.

Roy really has no intention of stopping Barbara now.

However, this does not mean that no one will stop her.

soon.

Diana, who had finished changing her clothes, appeared in the sight of Barbara and Roy.

Seeing Diana who had put on the Wonder Woman uniform, Barbara bared her teeth at Diana like a real beast.

At the same time, it made a low roar like a wild beast.

It was obvious that Barbara was not generally hostile to Diana.

If it hadn't been for Diana, she wouldn't have been imprisoned in Belliver, a prison specifically for superhuman criminals.

Let alone experience all kinds of inhuman treatment there.

Although the beautiful country prides itself on being a country that respects human rights.

But the opposite is true.

In other words, the more we publicize this, the more it proves that it is not true.

In Bellevue Prison, Barbara was almost taken to the operating table for a complete dissection.

Although it is absolutely impossible to completely replicate Barbara's power through technological means.

But even if it can only be copied one-tenth, it is still a good thing for the officials of the beautiful country.

Because as long as it can be copied, it means it can be mass-produced.

Among DC's super villains, Barbara the Cheetah is not a particularly powerful one.

But compared to ordinary soldiers, Leopard Girl Barbara is not generally powerful.

To put it bluntly, even with her bare hands, Barbara could easily kill several heavily armed SEAL teams.

If the tactics are right, you can even achieve a one-sided crushing.

Enemies are extremely jealous when they meet!

After seeing Diana, Barbara did not hesitate and immediately launched an attack.

At the beginning, Diana was a little surprised as to why Barbara appeared here.

But soon, she entered a fighting state.

Now is not a good time to think about why Barbara is here.

In just the blink of an eye, Barbara ran in front of Diana like a real beast, and grabbed Diana with her sharp claws like lightning.

Faced with Barbara's attack, Diana first retreated a distance.

Then, he took off the mantra lasso hanging from his waist.

Now Diana did not bring the Vulcan Sword and the Divine Shield.

He only has three weapons on his body: the Mantra Lasso, the Guardian Silver Bracelet, and the Starlight Flying Crown.

On the surface, Diana doesn't bring many weapons now.

But for her, this is enough for her to deal with ordinary enemies.

Because her body is an extremely powerful weapon.

After taking off the mantra lasso, the originally ordinary mantra lasso immediately shone with golden light, becoming like a condensed golden sunbeam.

Diana immediately waved the Lasso of Truth, trying to trap Barbara the Leopard with the Lasso of Truth and quickly resolve the battle.

Barbara, who has suffered several losses on the mantra lasso, will certainly not be caught so easily.

The moment Diana took off the Lasso of Truth, she changed her tactics, dodging while looking for opportunities to attack.

Bang bang bang bang...

The mantra lasso was constantly swung like a whip, making the already messy office area even more miserable.

Although Diana's purpose is to use the Lasso of Truth to trap Barbara, for ordinary items, even if it is only lightly swept by the Lasso of Truth, it is still a disaster.

When Diana waved the Lasso of Truth, Roy, who was invisible, silently stepped back a distance.

Judging from Diana's current performance, Diana has not discovered his existence yet.

This also means that when Diana attacks Barbara, she doesn't care whether she accidentally hurts him.

Because of the Lasso of Truth, Barbara couldn't find a suitable opportunity to get close to Diana for a while.

After a stalemate for a while, Leopard Girl Barbara changed her tactics again.

Although she still avoids the Lasso of Truth.

But after dodging, she picked up various objects around her and threw them at Diana.

Computers, desks, bookcases, boxes, various antiques waiting for identification and analysis...

As long as she could get it, Barbara didn't let it go.

Although these things cannot pose a threat to Diana, they can distract Diana.

Forget it about ordinary items such as computers and desks. If they break, they are broken. It’s not a big deal.

But those antiques are different.

Diana not only had to let the Lasso of Truth avoid these antiques, but she also had to take over these antiques as much as possible to prevent them from being destroyed.

Diana's distraction means Barbara's chance.

Taking advantage of Diana's opportunity to protect the antiques, Barbara launched a fierce attack.

In just a blink of an eye, Barbara was in front of Diana again, waving her claws continuously.

In order to resist Barbara's attack, Diana could only grab the Lasso of Truth with both hands at the same time and use the Lasso of Truth to defend against Barbara's attack.

Diana's body can withstand bullet attacks.

But Barbara's claws are stronger than bullets.

In previous battles, Diana was often scratched on the body by Barbara.

As Barbara got closer, what was originally a mid- to long-distance battle turned into a close-quarters fight in the blink of an eye.

Barbara's combat experience is not as good as Diana's, and she is not trained as a warrior on Paradise Island like Diana since she was a child. However, her beast-like instinctive fighting ability allows her to demonstrate very good close combat strength.

More importantly, unlike Diana who had no murderous intentions, Barbara wanted to cut Diana into pieces.

At the beginning, Diana was able to resist Barbara's offensive very well.

But as time went by, she began to fall into a disadvantageous position without any intention to kill.

She didn't want to kill Barbara, which was equivalent to putting a natural restraint on herself.

In this case, even if she had richer combat experience and more exquisite combat skills, she could not resist Barbara's wild beast-like attacks.

Seeing Diana gradually losing ground in melee combat, Roy sighed helplessly.

He did admire Diana quite a bit, but that didn't affect his feeling that the current Diana was a bit too womanly.

To be kind to your enemies is to be cruel to yourself.

Diana should understand this very well.

But now she still chooses to do this.

Roy originally did not intend to intervene in the battle between Barbara and Diana, but after seeing Diana's choice, he decided to take a little action.

He first released his invisibility state.

Then, he flashed near Diana and Barbara.

Ignoring Diana's confused look, he raised his right foot and kicked Barbara away.

Bang!

Like a baseball being knocked away, Barbara flew backwards instantly and hit the wall hard, leaving an extremely conspicuous impact crater on the wall.
