Chapter 416: Riot Parade

As the number of superhumans increases, and despite the disdainful efforts of superheroes, the security of the United States has inevitably deteriorated further. Although the strength of this new generation of superhumans is completely incomparable to that of their predecessors (after all, it was artificially created by Chen Lu), once it is used for evil, it will always find a chance to play it.

For example, a rapist who can make people feel heat with just one look, a professional gambler who gambles to bet on which side of the gamble loses and then partners with others to make money, or even the frisky and hilarious ability to just be invisible in the dark can be turned into a miracle feat of fooling an infrared siren.

It is not difficult at all to defeat these weak artificial superhumans, as they are not much different from ordinary people who are incapable in combat. But these weak people can still make normal humans feel the fact that superhumans have an advantage over them in society.

This fact is enough to make people feel uneasy, and now every American citizen has realized that the number of such weak superhumans is growing rapidly, and no one knows how far such groups will eventually grow.

Will there come a day when superhumans will occupy all the jobs that mortals dream of with their unique advantages, and they, ordinary humans, will only be able to do some lowly and unskilled jobs like the black slaves in the past?

It may seem like a very distant thing, but it is worrying.

And now the government's "Transhuman Management Regulations" have undoubtedly become a window to vent, because this bill stipulates that only transhumans can be registered as superheroes recognized by the government. If one day superhumans really enslave ordinary humans, then this bill can be considered a privilege law against superhumans.

After all, they can't completely ignore the gaze of others, which is why they are closer to creatures like gods than humans, and the faith of civilians seems to be their driving force.

So the first people who opposed the bill began to organize demonstrations, realizing the superhuman threat, and their original intention was to demand that the government repeal the bill, which was not in line with human equality. Unfortunately, this kind of political movement always needs investors, and these human rights activists foolishly approached a company controlled by Stark Industries as an investor.

Given Stark Industries' dominance over the U.S. economy, it is less likely that they will be able to find capitalists who are not controlled by Stark Industries.

So under Chen Lu's instructions, the human rights movement, which was originally the ** bill, was induced to become an anti-human movement, demanding that superheroes be exempted from all privileges, which would not have happened in the DC Comics world, a world full of superhero worship atmosphere.

"Oppose superhuman privilege and support police enforcement!"

"Superheroes are pure nonsense, everyone is equal before the law!"

"Law enforcement should not be handed over to a group of non-government-run aliens!"

"All illegal profits from superhuman abilities should be strictly prohibited!"

The marching people gathered in front of the Hall of Justice with banners of all sorts of colors, shouting for the special treatment of superheroes. To be honest, before Chen Lu asked for the promulgation of the "Superhuman Management Regulations", superheroes didn't really have any privileges at all, at most there was an unspoken rule that they could not be taken away by the police after they used their superpowers to subdue the thugs. However, when all this is written in black and white on the clockwork, the nature is suddenly completely different.

To be honest, most of the annoying superhumans are not superheroes affiliated with the Justice League, and the Justice League has always been very restrained when doing things to achieve justice, and always tries not to interfere with the lives of ordinary people as much as possible.

It's a pity that after so many years of active in the Justice League, it has long become a synonym for superheroes, and the people naturally vent all their resentment against superheroes on the Justice League, and they themselves still take it for granted.

In the Hall of Justice, the members of the Justice League had already quarreled, and there was a difference of opinion between the young and vigorous young heroes and the old superheroes about the large group of mobs used by Chen Lu around the door, and the focus of the disagreement was only whether they should fight on the basis of reason or persuade each other.

"I've had enough!" Nightwing roared loudly, and was about to rush out the door in a rage, "These incredible fools, they don't know how many times the Earth would have been destroyed without us!" We did everything we could to protect them, and now they're going to repay us with this? What the hell happened to those people? I've never seen such a stupid guy even in Gotham! ”

Damian, who has always liked to contradict Nightwing, nodded in agreement, "I'm not a superhuman, but this time they're too much. You accept our protection, and at the same time demand that we be treated as criminals? What is the rationale for this? ”

Indeed, if superheroes are exempted from all the privileges they deserve, their fight with supervillains should be dealt with as the crime of intentional injury, in short, the criminals who should be arrested. Asking the superheroes to continue their heroic deeds while also asking the police to constantly want and hunt him down, a treatment that few people can accept even in the Justice League.

Perhaps, a character who is used to being treated this way should be excluded.

A black figure stood in front of the door of the Hall of Justice, and the wide black cloak stopped the two hot-blooded young men who wanted to rush out to argue with the marchers, and it was their father, Batman, who blocked their way. The calm Dark Knight knew very well that words alone would not solve this conflict, and would only make things worse.

"Dick, Damian, don't act impulsively. It's clear that this group of people is just being used against us by others, and as long as we do what we have to do as we always do, this kind of rhetoric will disappear on its own. Batman said, in fact, it is also the most correct thing to do. After all, no guy really thinks that he can do anything with the Justice League, to put it mildly, if the Justice League had this intention, it would have established a dictatorship on Earth a long time ago, so there are any opponents to be afraid of.

At this time, Chen Lu, who induced this parade, also mixed in with the superheroes as a blue beetle, and he already knew that Batman would not care about this kind of thing, but the question is, can others do the same as Batman's reputation?

The answer is no.
