Ruth's expression did not fluctuate at all, like a perfect but hostile sculpture. She gently lifted the bloody sword blade, and the lavender light of the stone of power lingered on her sword, releasing hostility to Eric without reservation.

The tip of her sword moved, and the gem light flashed, and the sword energy suddenly wrapped in purple light and swept across the air, as if it was about to tear apart the space. Eric's body shook, leaving behind a gorgeous colorful light and shadow disappeared in place, flashing behind Ruth in an instant. A golden light flashed with his palm, and the God-killing Sword suddenly appeared in his hand. Ruth's movement was extremely fast, and the purple light turned into an arc and surrounded it, sweeping towards Eric behind him. Eric stood up and blocked the sword, and the purple and golden sword energy touched violently. The energy residue of the two-color splashed out like Mars, with a gorgeous light effect.

Ruth turned around and "swipe" rushed to several swords. The purple sword energy followed one by one, forming a gorgeous sword curtain. Eric waved his sword to dissolve one by one, and took a step back every time he received a sword, but did not fight back. His sword blade turned, and a golden ring formed in front of him. Ruth pierced straight in, and the power gem energy was spitting out. The domineering energy immediately crushed the ring and hit Eric, which made him take a few steps back.

The power was weakening, and the colorful light lingering around the armor was flashing and dying, like a desk lamp whose battery was about to run out. Eric forced his broken body to stand up again and firmly grasped the hilt of the sword.

It's necessary to hurry up.

Ruth rushed forward again, her sword thrust rapidly, and her purple energy rolled up like a tornado. Everything in Times Square was lifted up by this unreasonable strong light, and was corroded and broken down into powder a little bit.

Eric cut through the purple hurricane facing him with a sword and strode fearlessly. He thrust his sword into Ruth's eyes - which was exactly the weakness of the opponent's body-protecting tornado. Ruth stopped attacking as expected and returned to rescue him. Ruth, who seemed to have been brainwashed by Darkseid, did not retain her own thinking, otherwise she should be able to calculate that even if she did not return to defense, Eric would never really hurt her eyes.

But this created an opportunity for Eric. He suddenly threw away the God-killing Sword, swayed, and teleported behind the other party, spread his arms and hugged Ruth firmly in his arms. This bold move only made Ruth stunned for a moment - the only hesitation was just because his movements were not in line with the common sense of fighting - and then he stabbed back with a sword from his armpit without thinking. The sword energy wrapped in the power stone energy domineeringly tore open the colorful light of Eric's body protection, and the bloody sword blade suddenly penetrated his armor and his body, and the bloody sword penetrated out from his back.

The energy of the power gem immediately hit the whole body through the sword blade. Eric's body was already tortured under the dual effects of the Omega effect and the Subora virus, and he felt even more painful at this time. But he still gritted his teeth and held Ruth firmly like pliers.

"Wake me up, Ruth Wilson!" he shouted, "Remember who you are!"

In an instant, the light on the Alpha armor, which had already dimmed, surged up again. The colorful aurora shot straight into the sky and enveloped the entire battlefield. The light penetrated the layers of darkness and pierced Ruth's heart like a dagger. In an instant, the flames in the girl's eyes were extinguished a little, and she returned to a moment of tranquility.

But that was only in a moment. The darkness that Darksided planted in her mind was really powerful. After being stimulated by light, he suddenly fought back like a tide and wanted to drive Eric out.

Eric was on the verge of overdrawing, his spirit and body were at its limit. He felt his vision blurred, and his heartbeat was like a fast-paced percussion. But he still gritted his teeth and held his last breath and burst out with a beastly roar.

The rainbow's light surged again, which was already the burning of life and soul. He launched another round of impact on Ruth's heart, which was locked by the darkness. The layers of darkness gradually melted. Ruth, who was buried deep in her heart, raised her head in surprise, and saw that the person in her mind was surrounding the warm aurora and stretched out a helping hand to her.

It's like a dream.

The dark breath finally dissipated, and the soft body in Eric's arms gradually stopped struggling. He gently placed Ruth on the ground, who opened his eyes slowly and smiled, "I know, I know you will come to pick me up."

The light on Eric's body dimmed again. He forced himself to calm down his breath like a cow, and whispered: "Yes, you're back."

Eric thought, and the sword that pierced into his abdomen suddenly pulled out and threw it aside. He took a deep breath and evaluated his current situation. Although the explosion just now successfully drove Darkseid's will out of Ruth's mind, it also made it worse for his already terrible situation. Optimism is too luxurious for him now, and he will have to make the worst plan next.

And this seems to have become a law - whenever you feel that things are bad enough, worse situations will immediately follow. A dark red light flow suddenly gushed from behind, surging towards Eric. Eric was caught off guard and was knocked down again by blasting his head, dragging long cracks along the ground, crossing Times Square and knocking down a grocery store across the street.

"Eric!" Ruth shouted, trying to get up, but her body was extremely weak, and several attempts ended in failure.

The metal battle boots fell calmly on the ground covered with gravels, and the "cracking" sound of stones shattering came from under the soles of feet. The burly man stood in the middle of the battlefield like Mount Tai. He had a large black beard and bright red horns on his silver helmet. He held a huge battle axe in his hand, and red light flowed on the axe blade, like lava. The dark red infinite gems were embedded on the battle axe, and strange energy surrounded him like transparent liquid.

Steppenwolf, uncle of the Dark Monarch Darkseid, commander-in-chief of the Apocalypse Army, is the most powerful man even among the new gods.

He sneered and stretched out a hand, and with his fingertips, the purple gem embedded in the sword suddenly floated up in the air like a spirituality, and flew towards him obediently. He pinched the gem and placed it on the other side of the battle axe. The red and purple lights intersected in one place, turning into a pillar of light to rush straight into the sky, as if he wanted to penetrate the sky.

Eric lifted the ruins pressing on his body and stood up staggeringly. After seeing the enemy's figure clearly, he raised his arm and pulled out the God-killing Sword again without saying a word, and put on a combat posture.
