Chapter 15: Guarding

"What do you mean?"

Bruce and Selina couldn't understand Ryan's words.

Ryan shook his head slightly.

He stared in the direction of the Capitol, unable to see through, but his blood control allowed him to easily discern the personnel inside.

Among them, the blood energy belonging to Superman is the most active and clear, and even brightly resembles a moving sun.

At this time, Bruce and Selina finally had time to turn their heads and look at the city.

So, after a while, Bruce wondered, "Is this Washington, and why does it look different?"

Selina also said, "I just found out, and didn't you notice that the car below looks very different from what those people are holding?"

Their world is still in the eighties, and compared with the current cosmic time and space, it is naturally different.

"Ryan, where are we?" Selina couldn't help but ask.

However, Ryan looked at the entrance of the Capitol without looking back at this time, and suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed, "See that person?"

Bruce and Serena cast their eyes.

Medium-long hair, white skin, youth, followed by bodyguards.

He quickly got into the car, and the convoy drove away.

Bruce: "I can't see clearly."

Serena: "He looks young."

Ryan: "Remember his face, he's the key." With that, he turned his gaze back to the building.

After a while, he slowly raised his right hand.

Seeing his gesture, Selina was startled, because she suddenly remembered the scene where Ryan destroyed his body in the alley before.

"What's wrong?" She was a little nervous.

Bruce raised an eyebrow and looked at the two of them quizzically.

Ryan touched his thumb and middle finger lightly and whispered, "It's going to explode."

"Huh?"

"What?"

Ryan began to count down.

"Three...... Two...... Smack!"

Without counting to one, he snapped his fingers.

Suddenly, the clouds in the sky swelled and shattered, and a pure white pillar of light descended straight from the sky, and it rushed into the Capitol, the light pierced through the wall, and instantly fell on the man in the wheelchair in the conference hall.

The first to react to the sudden change was Superman standing in the middle, who first looked up at the ceiling, and then tracked his gaze to the wheelchair man as the pillar of light landed.

Immediately after that, the others consciously focused on the sudden appearance of the pillar of light, and the quiet conference hall instantly resounded with one exclamation after another.

Superman frowned.

The next moment.

The man in the pillar of light was engulfed by the flames, and the light of the powerful explosion and the deafening sound were transmitted together, and people saw this scene, instinctively raised their arms to protect them, and let out an exclamation in their mouths, and the conference hall was in chaos for a moment.

However, the blazing and bright tongue of fire did not sweep through the air, it was firmly sealed in by the pillar of light.

The flames then slammed rapidly upwards along the inside of the pillar of light.

Rumble!

In the corner of the Capitol, flames burst into the sky, and the explosion shook all directions.

Mysterious pillars of light and sudden flames have made countless cameras quickly adjust their direction to the sky.

The round flames rose into the sky, looking like a chimney.

"It's exploded!!" Bruce and Serena exclaimed in unison.

Ryan stretched out his hand, and the light energy pulled the flames away from the building, and then threw it hundreds of meters into the air.

It's sunny and white, and the fireworks are flying.

Below, the crowd screamed for an escape.

However, the flames were soon extinguished, and the burned corpses and wheelchair fragments turned into dust and dissipated along with the black smoke.

Immediately, Ryan grabbed Bruce and Selina by the shoulders and flew into the sky in an instant, and at the same time, the light in front of the three of them changed dramatically, and their figures instantly seemed to be invisible to the public

Disappear in the wild.

In the conference hall, it was noisy and chaotic, and the observers opened the doors and fled quickly.

Superman turned his head to look in the direction Ryan had left, his vision following a void of space, his brow furrowed.

On the stage, the congresswoman had already stood up, her eyes fixed on an empty chair below, the label clearly read: Lex Luthor.

Meanwhile.

Away from the convoy, Lex Luthor watched the live broadcast through his tablet, his eyes widening and his pupils narrowing and narrowing.

After a brief moment of astonishment and silence, he jerked his head up: "Invite that lady's family as guests, and by the way, help me call her to inform her of the good news."

"Yes, sir!"

-----------------

Gotham.

"It's not like Gotham, either." Bruce said as he walked.

Serena pointed to a bakery, "This must be Gotham, I remember this shop, and its owner was a very kind old woman who would always use the shotgun she hid under the counter to drive away the thugs who came to rob them, or blast them all out with a single shot."

The corners of Bruce's mouth twitched when he heard this, "Does this have anything to do with kindness?"

"Ha, Master Wayne, you don't understand how to survive as an ordinary person in Gotham." Selina sneered at him unabashedly.

After a while, a few people walked up to the bakery that Selina had just pointed to, and Bruce turned his head curiously to observe, and then said, "Why didn't I see the old woman you said?"

"Huh?" Selina also turned her head to look, only to see that a middle-aged man in his thirties was busy in the store, with a waist circumference thicker than that of Ryan and the other three combined.

Selina was stunned, and soon stared at the other party's face and made a puzzled voice: "Chubby?"

"What?" Bruce's features furrowed.

Ryan couldn't listen anymore.

He pulled out a not-so-clean newspaper from the trash can next to him and handed it to Bruce.

Bruce hurriedly took it, turned away to look, and was momentarily stunned.

Selina walked around Ryan and squeezed to Bruce's side, "What's wrong?"

Bruce's fingers twitched slightly, pointing to the time above the newspaper.

So, the two stopped at the same time and were stunned on the street.

Ryan ignored them and went all the way.

After a while, the two caught up, and Selina whispered as she gasped, "Ryan, ...... Is it time travel? We're decades away?"

Bruce said on the other side of Lane, "You just said I got half right, so I think...... Have we not only traveled through time, but also through space, and if time and space have changed, then are we now in another parallel universe that is similar but different? Is this inference true?"

Ryan bowed, "Yes, you can think of this world as a parallel universe. But please swallow all your questions first, and I need to think quietly about some of them now."

Hearing this, Bruce and Selina did not continue to pester him, and the two stayed behind Ryan, chattering all the way to the end.

On the way, several people passed a building.

Bruce stopped: "Ryan! This is Wayne Tower!"

"So what?"

"I...... We may be able to ......."

Selina nudged him, "Don't be stupid, this isn't your Wayne Building, it's another Bruce Wayne's Wayne Building!"

Bruce walked all the way back and muttered softly.

"I...... I want to see what the world looks like."
