Chapter 42: The Truth
Just as Batman and his party were moving away with Cyborg and Hawkgirl, the underground safe house they were in was smashed through by a violent thunderbolt, and Wonder Woman Diana and Shazam appeared in this underground safe house. With their physique, they could naturally ignore the radiation from the Metropolitan Center, which could kill all living matter. After Shazam used her divine powers to locate her magic, Diana took Shazam to track him all the way.
Although the middle was confused by Batman using the Batfighter to confuse the lower position, it was only a short delay, but Diana didn't expect that in such a short time, Batman and his party fled under her nose without a trace.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know Batman had a prop to confuse my magic." Shazam also looked innocent, God knows why his positioning magic stuck to Batman's plane, causing himself and Wonder Woman to go around in the air for most of the day.
"It's nothing, Billy, it's not your fault," didn't complain about Shazam, although Diana's face was a little ugly, she still called the Flash and the others in the Hall of Justice through the headset. "This is Wonder Woman, we found Batman's location, but they escaped, Cyborg and Hawkgirl are still missing, how are you guys, Flash?"
"I'm the Flash, Diana, and now I need you to come back, and I think I know why Cyborg got taken by Batman."
In the Hall of Justice, the Flash responds to Wonder Woman's call with an ugly face, and on the computer screen, using his shameless speed power, the Flash has recovered the data destroyed in the central computer. Cyborg did obtain Superman through the satellites of the ruler's regime and made all sorts of unconscionable killings around the world on the day of the so-called secret gathering of clown fighters.
It also shreds the video files in the first time without leaving a backup in the computer. But he didn't take into account the Flash's speed force, which is the fifth fundamental force in the DC universe, which can crush most of the laws of physics and scientific principles. Don't ask why the speed force can recover a computer file that has been destroyed for a long time, people just did it, and with the recovery of the video file, the picture of Superman starting to slaughter the whole world that day appeared in front of everyone.
Those civilians who couldn't even resist in the heat of sight instantly turned into skeletons, and before they died, they still maintained that struggling posture, as if they couldn't understand why they died like this. Not only that, Superman in a rage didn't care about how much damage his power would bring to his surroundings at this time, and his hot eyes not only included the members of the so-called secret assembly of clown fighters, but also completely set the building on fire, regardless of whether there were innocent people inside.
Superman may not have cared if there were innocents in this building, he wouldn't have thought about it so much at the time, but the Flash would. Using a computer to track down, a conclusion was quickly reached. On the day of the secret gathering of the Clown fighters in the global massacre of Superman, the innocent people who died because of the massacre were almost three times the number of people in the secret gathering of the Clown fighters, and these numbers were not so noticeable because they were distributed in various regions of the world, and these news were not exposed under the cover of the steel bones and the activities of the Superman armed forces stationed there.
But now with the recovery of the Flash, everyone has seen and seen Superman's side as a tyrant, ignoring life and slaughtering only to vent his anger. In just a few pictures, the few people who stayed in the Hall of Justice had different thoughts in their hearts, the Flash of the Injustice Universe, the Yellow Lantern Hal, the Senisto who came from the universe, and the Injustice Damien who leaned against the wall.
Looking at the superman who slaughtered everything in the picture, Damian couldn't connect him with the superman he was with just now, but the voice in his heart told him that this was Superman, and this was the truest side of Superman now. At this moment, Damien finally understood the reason why his father had always adhered to the bottom line of the principle of not killing, because a person with the power to destroy the world no longer follows the morals and laws of those humans in order to limit himself from becoming a beast, then the damage he can cause is unimaginable.
But when he thinks that as long as he kills, he can turn all disobedience into convincing, he will give up thinking and choose what he thinks is the easiest thing to do, and one of his ideas will have countless lives to pay for him.
"Does everything start from one? Father, I see. Thinking about the words that his father had been admonishing himself since he was a child, Damian understood, while Flash and others were not paying attention, a green superhuman medicine was stuffed into his mouth, and the power acting on his body instantly recovered his injuries, at this time, he must restore his physical condition to the best in order to help his father in the next action.
And the dictator who is also his home planet, Sinisto is smiling, looking at the current yellow light Hal, he really wants to know how Hal will choose, and is he still qualified to be recognized by the green light ring? Just when everyone has different psychological activities for the truth hidden by the steel bones, Wonder Woman Diana and Shazam also returned, and they also saw Superman's tyrannical appearance in the computer screen.
"This is Superman?!" As Superman's number one fan, Shazam, that is, Billy Batson, asked with some surprise, no matter who it is, he will not remain calm when he sees Superman's appearance.
"I'm afraid yes, that's why Batman took Cyborg, Cyborg hides the truth, and Batman takes Cyborg to make the truth public." The Flash nodded and said.
"That... Shall we continue to follow? Shazam didn't know what to do.
The reason why he stood on Superman's side before was because he believed that Superman was indeed doing good things to the world, and that a peaceful, conflict-free world was what he saw, and for this, he could help Superman deal with Batman, carry Atlantis to the Sahara Desert to the sun, and fight against the Greek gods. But he's almost 18 years old, and he can tell right from wrong, and with all this he sees on the video now, he can't convince himself that Superman's previous opinion is correct, and that he can raise a butcher's knife against innocents for the sake of peace? Is such a person still superhuman?
Shazam's question silences the collective, Sinisto and Damian watch from the wall, the Flash has a struggling look on his face, and Yellow Lantern Hal chooses silence, he who was once prophesied by the Green Lantern Legion's Book of Oua as the greatest Green Lantern, is now the Yellow Lantern Hal who bows to fear, and the Green Lantern Legion also disappears into the universe with Superman's rage.
"Nope! We have to keep up! Track the whereabouts of Cyborg, and never allow Batman to publish this video! Just when everyone was in trouble because of Shazam's question, Wonder Woman spoke up instead, but her words made everyone look at each other with incomprehensible looks.
Seeing the eyes of everyone, Wonder Woman also knew that if she couldn't say why, she would have to be the first unlucky object, and between thoughts, the wording was organized.
"Yes, this video does show that Clark did something wrong, but you have to figure out why Clark is so angry, they worship the Joker and agree with the Joker's point of view, and Louise and the innocent lives of the Metropolis are all done by the Joker! In this case, they irritate Clark, what do you think Clark will do? ”
"But they don't deserve death, and we can use the armed forces to arrest them and ban this so-called assembly, instead of making us law enforcers and trying their lives!" The Unrighteous Flash said.
"Heh, you should tell the dead shark-people in Canterlot," Diana scoffed, leaving the Flash silent.
And Diana didn't continue to talk much about the Flash's dark history, looked around at everyone, and continued: "I admit that Clark did something wrong, but if Batman is allowed to release this video, our efforts in the past five years will be in vain, and the peaceful world we have worked so hard to create will disappear and return to our original self again." Besides, there will be an unknown side behind the establishment of any regime, and we will choose to bury the truth by exchanging the lives of these innocent people for a peaceful world. ”
"So, Superman doesn't need to be punished, doesn't he have to be judged by the law?" Shazam, who was on the side, also said at this time, his eyes full of disappointment and incomprehension.
"Of course not, Billy, Clark has committed these mistakes and needs atonement, he needs to remember this lesson and make this world a better place, so we have to track down Batman even more, we can't let him ruin the current situation of this world, he doesn't deserve to judge Clark!"
With a sincere face and a look of the harm of publishing this video from the perspective of my good for you, Diana's words seemed to find an excuse for everyone who was struggling with psychology at this time. Whether it is the Flash, who did commit manslaughter in Canterlot, or the yellow light Hal who has succumbed to fear, and Shazam, as a young man whose real identity is only 17 years old, does not have much social experience, he is also confused by Diana's words, always feeling that something is wrong, but he doesn't know what is wrong.
So, what should we do? Turn off the network? The video gave him an interesting look at the video where his former opponents seemed to be starting to turn into their favorites, which made him feel good.
"I don't know, but I think someone will have a way, you say? Damian. Diana looked at Damian and threw the question at him.
"Me? Also, after all, I've been with Batman the longest. Even though he had all kinds of thoughts in his heart, Damian still kept that poker face on his face, and said directly after thinking for a while: "We need to track the signal of the steel bones, Batman will definitely choose a suitable time to release this video, he will make us scramble first, and we can't stop it in the first place, so we need a buffer to divert the world's attention from this when Batman releases the video to the world, and we need an event that can divert the attention of the whole world." ”
"Clever, then what are you going to do."
Righteous Damien leaned against the wall, looking at the group of superheroes in front of him, once upon a time, he thought they were the greatest group of people in the world, but through the scene of Cowen leading me to beat myself, Righteous Damien also recognized himself, knew what he had done wrong, and when he looked at these superheroes again, he realized that they had already become the most hated person in the past five years.
Thinking like this, Damian also made a decision in his heart, and said with a smile: "We, how long has it been since we contacted the raven?" ”
