Chapter 158: Man Has a Limit (4k5)

"God...... Does God Really Exist? ”

Several people's eyes widened in astonishment.

"Is it too late for me to go to church every week to pray?"

The Flash peeked at it, stammered a little, and made a prayer gesture.

Batman frowned, wondering if he was doubting whether what David said was true, or if he was questioning something.

David's face was as usual, and he was telling the truth.

"The God of the DC world does exist, not only does it exist, but it does have the supreme power of omniscience, omnipotence, and supremacy."

There is no more powerful being than God in the entire multiverse, but he has rarely appeared before people, and even many of the angels he created have never actually seen him, but only heard his voice.

"There was even a rebellion of angels who went to the highest level of heaven, and all they saw was an empty chair of God."

"Suppose I were a god.

I don't think I'm interested in meticulously arranging the fate of every mortal. ”

Batman's brow furrowed, and Cyborg's slightly resentful face changed, falling silent.

"In the same way, if God were as powerful as the Bible says......"

He looked at the projection of Jarrod Joseph.

"Then if he wants to redeem someone, he shouldn't need to rely on the power of angels."

The implication of these words is naturally that Batman does not believe that Jarrod will be an angel sent by God to the earth.

"He's probably just a powerful person."

David, who has little interest in Jarrod's identity, agrees.

God rarely appears, rarely interferes in the things of the universe, and doesn't even care about the universe, let alone a handful of suffering people on earth.

"In fact, I found some scary things about him in some secret military materials."

Steelbone looked up.

A photo was released, and it was a vast scorched earth steaming hot.

Judging from the ruins of the fortress-like ruins and the remains of armored vehicles burned to the iron frame on the far edge, it is barely clear that this should be a military base.

"...... this?"

Like the scorched earth after the war, the Flash wondered, this place was carpet-bombed by shells?

"The thing in this photo happened two days ago, in a small African country called Yasir."

"Did Jarrod do it?"

Batman's face changed slightly.

"Yes, that's him."

Steelbone's expression was serious and slightly uneasy.

"Yasir has an ancient indigenous sect of gods, the local law prohibits the belief in other religious gods, and there have been church families who have entered the country to preach, and the family has been hanged as a heretic for violating the law.

Jarod, also known as 'Redemption', flew to Yasir in a rage to inquire about it, during which the soldiers shot him.

He raised his hand to shoot back, and a dazzling blue light enveloped the entire military base.

When the light dissipated, dozens of acres were built, thirty-six buildings were built, and the base where an entire army was stationed was razed to the ground with a single blow! ”

I don't know if it was because of the fear of panic among the people, and it was blocked by various countries and listed as top secret.

"How did he behave afterwards?"

Except for nuclear weapons, no other weapon of mankind can replicate such an effect in one blow, and Batman asked in a deep voice, "Are there any signs of weakness?" ”

If it is a prosperous city, this 'redemption' emotion is out of control, and a single blow can wipe out a block.

David looked at the horrific picture of the scene and touched his lips.

'Redemption' not only has super speed, but the ability to release energy even exceeds Clark's, and Clark at his current age should not be able to vaporize a military base with a single blow of heat and steel and cement, which may not be the limit of Jarrod.

Cyborg shook his head.

"After the military satellites of various countries photographed him sending a blow, they looked at their hands, and seemed to be a little frightened by their own strength and quickly left the country, the speed was still as fast as when he came, and he couldn't see how much strength that blow had cost him."

There was a moment of silence in the room.

This proves that Redemption has the ability to unleash a second blow or even more attacks.

If Salvation hadn't concentrated his power like that, even the steel and concrete had evaporated, would he have been able to kill half the city in one blow?

But after a long time, salvation seemed to be enlightened, no longer panicked, and returned to Yasser again in a calm and rational manner, and the Yasser government was frightened, and in the face of the near-humanoid nuclear weapons, he made all kinds of concessions, and quickly changed the country's laws to allow religious freedom.

Subsequently, the First Redemption Church allocated a large amount of funds, claiming that it had agreed to cooperate with the government of Yasir, and they would build a series of facilities in Yasir, including hospitals, schools, orphanages and other social welfare institutions, as well as churches. ”

Cyborg continued to read the rest of the story.

"If there's no front, it's not a bad thing to just be in the back."

The Flash's pertinent assessment.

Just because of different beliefs, the family hanged to death, Yasir, a small African country, is too ignorant and bloody, like an uncivilized primitive man.

It is also good to help small poor countries build social security facilities such as hospitals, schools and orphanages.

But it was the destruction of a military base and the killing of all the soldiers in it before redemption that Barry Allen, who had always been kind, could not agree with this approach.

Batman's brow furrowed.

"Salvation is no longer just a danger possibility, he has broken into another country and destroyed a military base on the pretext that his followers have been killed, forcing a government to change the law as he wishes.

There is a first time for this kind of thing, and there will be a second time.

Will the next time the Christians be persecuted, their missions blocked, or even developed into non-belief in the Lord? ”

However, he only thought about this extreme idea in his heart, and did not say it directly.

Batman glanced at everyone secretly, knowing that many members of the alliance would not share his dark views.

"Something isn't right."

David rubbed his chin.

The strength of 'Redemption' is not to say that it surpasses the son of Krypton, at least it is very close, and it stands to reason that he should be very famous, especially if he is still a character on Earth.

Why he had never heard of this man.

It was supposed to be just a flash in the pan in the comics, and David suspected that the power of this 'redemption' might have some kind of huge limit.

So far that is the whole story of the events of the time of Asir.

There are also some military investigations into 'redemption'. ”

Cyborg looked at the last few lines of information, his tone slightly hesitant.

Sitting up straight, Batman's eyes froze, he wanted to hear if the American military, which had always been very wary of superhumans, had gathered important information about salvation.

"The founder of the First Redeeming Church is a priest named Hitatea, who is very old and looks to be sixty or seventy years old, and he is the one who absorbed Jarrod into the church, and the identity of this person is a mystery, and Hitastar should be a pseudonym.

Every time he set out to rescue and help oppressed congregants in places where faith is not free, he would call on the believers in the church to pray for 'salvation' through the Internet, and repeatedly said that let them believe in the Lord and believe in salvation, and their faith could be turned into the power of 'salvation'. ”

"Faith as power?"

Several people present were keenly aware of the key points in the last piece of top-secret information from the steel bones.

Is that his limitation?

There is no strength without the belief that others have in him. ”

David raised an eyebrow.

After seeing that Jarrod was not weaker than Clark's strength at this time, he hadn't heard of it, and he was already slightly interested in this person.

"Not good!"

Cyborg and The Flash were still thinking about it, and after looking at the other details of 'Redemption', Batman's face changed drastically, as if he realized that some danger was about to happen.

"What's wrong?"

The Flash turned his head in confusion.

"'Redemption' is twenty-six years old this year, two years after he discovered his power.

Who would be frightened by the power they have been familiar with for two years?

Unless his strength has gone through a surge in a short period of time, so strong that it is unfamiliar to him. ”

Batman stood up with a solemn face, manipulated the holographic projection, turned out a few key pieces of information, and showed them to several people.

"When 'Redemption' left for Asir, it was when he showed his strength to help believers in several other countries before him, and the number of congregants absorbed by the First Redemption Church rose to a new level."

"Faith is power.

There is no power without faith, and vice versa – the more you believe in the idea of 'salvation', the more power you have! ”

Facing the two who were still confused, David said slowly.

"'Redemption' has shown its godlike power in Asir, and the country's beliefs, which have been restricted by local laws, may have exploded like a tide, and the First Redemption Church must have absorbed more congregations.

His strength must have grown again. ”

"And that's not all."

Standing up and walking to the window to look at the deep sea in the distance, Batman shook his head solemnly.

"The faithful were persecuted, families were hanged, and 'salvation' appeared to avenge them, to defend freedom of belief, to allow the land of ignorance to change its laws, and for everyone to freely choose their faith.

What a great promotional material. ”

As long as there is enough money, public opinion on the Internet is nothing more than a toy to be manipulated.

Cyborg quickly closed his eyes when he realized something, and he breathed a sigh of relief as he searched the headlines of the world's major news outlets.

"For the time being, the international headlines of various countries are still basically occupied by us."

Batman and The Flash also flipped out their phones and looked at them uneasily.

The Justice League's first attack brought peace back to the war-torn Middle East, which is enough international news to attract the attention of the whole world, and no one in the comments under the news talks about the existence of 'redemption', and they are all discussing the significance of the appearance of the Justice League.

Some people say that there is a Justice League here, and there is no need to worry about the earth going into war again, and they rejoice about it.

"We should all be grateful to the Justice League, and from now on there are people who silently watch over the safety of the world."

But some people also questioned who gave the power to the Justice League to enter other countries to regulate wars without the permission of other countries?

"Did the Justice League stop the war by arresting the political leaders of other countries, and their power is above the governments of the planet?"

"No one would really sympathize with a warlord dictator who started a war regardless of the demands of the people, right?"

"Power must be kept in a cage.

Unrestricted power is a flood beast, which will hurt people sooner or later.

Do we have to rely on the morality of the members of the Justice League?

Nations must unite to impose restrictions on the Justice League! ”

"This view cannot be said to be wrong......

There are opinions on the Internet around the Justice League, superheroes have not been around for a long time, the law on superheroes has not yet been established, and governments have not yet decided what to do, let alone the Justice League, an organization of superheroes united.

"I heard that the man named Black Adam this time is very powerful, and his body is invulnerable."

"He seems to be able to harness thunder and lightning, and if he is not strong, he cannot conquer a country in a short time, and he can crush all the resistance forces in the country by himself.

But after all, it's still not as strong as the Justice League. ”

"It's not that the Justice League was almost defeated this time, Superman and Batman and Wonder Woman all failed miserably under Black Adam.

If it weren't for the Transcendent's appearance to turn the tide, maybe what would have happened in the end. ”

"Speaking of which, it was the transcendent who took on the main force to resolve the crisis, which was the case before, and is still like this."

The single members of the Justice League, everyone is most enthusiastic about discussing the transcendent and superman, especially the transcendent, shocked by his powerful strength that gives people infinite security, guessing his real identity, almost more than sixty percent of them are discussing him alone.

The Flash scratched his head absently, smiled and put away his phone.

There was no grievance in his heart, David had saved them more than once.

"Not yet, just because it won't mean it won't be in the future."

After two glances at the comments, Batman put down his phone in silence.

"Come to think of it, it's just a part of Britain plus a few small countries that advocate 'redemption', and he's so powerful.

If the whole world knew about him, how much would his power grow! ”

At present, 'salvation' is only to force one country to make concessions, and will it develop to the point where one person can make the whole world change according to his will?

Even though Batman is worth hundreds of millions and is the richest man in Gotham, he can't manipulate the world's public opinion, he doesn't have any good ideas.

He looked at Cyborg, wondering if he could single-handedly block the world's online news about 'redemption'.

"I can't do it."

Cyborg shook his head dryly.

The world's major secret websites and databases, for his small courtyard hidden in the door, he has to push the door and walk in, and then he can browse casually, but the gods can't stop the mouths of people all over the world for a moment.

Even if it can be done, the Justice League is afraid that it will immediately be pushed to the forefront and tens of thousands of people will be criticized.

"That's exactly the problem, he didn't do anything, we don't have the right reason to go out of my way with him.

So let's wait until he shows behavior that endangers the world. ”

After thinking about it, David got up and spread his hands, and he was ready to leave after visiting the alliance base.

In fact, 'Redemption' hasn't done anything too out of the ordinary now, and as for killing all the soldiers at a military base, he's done it too.

"Aren't you afraid that his strength will grow to the point where even you can't deal with it?" Batman looked at David's back.

"Perhaps."

After a pause, David chuckled, not denying that there was such a possibility.

"But I believe there is a limit to what a person can do."

Turning other people's beliefs in himself into strength has to be said to be a peculiar ability, which reminds him of the sword fighting of one of the four supermen in the Marvel Universe, and the sword fighting is that the stronger the confidence in himself, the stronger the strength.

"'Salvation' cannot transform faith into strength without limits.

Otherwise, according to the current transformation ratio, 'Salvation' will conquer a few living planets at will, and won't he be able to trample that dark monarch under his feet, so that he can sincerely believe in God and pray sooner or later. ”

Steelbone's eyes lit up, thinking that what David said made sense.

The Flash had a strange expression, unable to imagine what it would be like for the father of the humanoid monster named Kalibuck to hold the cross and pray fervently and chant the merciful Lord.

"Cyborg, investigate the priest named Hightower, he may have played a very important role in this."

After David left, Batman's brows did not stretch, and he paused to remind in a deep voice.

"Don't forget, even if he only maintains his current power, it is a terrible potential threat to the world."

Hearing David's words, the steel skeleton that was much more relaxed suddenly reacted, and there was silence for a while.

By the way, not everyone is a transcendent, with such a powerful ability, and now the strength of 'redemption' is scary enough.

……

Super Hearing monitors the entire city, and Clark hears about a bank robbery.

The police car used as a cover, and the police carefully hid behind the police car with guns and aimed inside the bank.

"Superman! Superman is coming! ”

Seeing Superman coming, the police and the crowd outside the cordon greeted him as if they saw the savior cheering.

"Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen.

I hope that some of the sun today did not dampen your enthusiasm for work. ”

Clark chuckled and nodded, and as he flew into the bank, he thought it was another ordinary bank robbery he'd solved many times.

"You're finally here."

A word of surprise came from the bank with a low laugh.

"Superman, I've been waiting for you for a long time."
