Chapter 592: Silver Kryptonite
The Oblivion Bar, a famous meeting place on DC's Magic Side. The people who know and will appear here are all people on the magic side, many of whom are little-known mages.
It is said to exist in the cracks of many different dimensions, and the coordinates in reality are constantly changing. That's why when it doesn't want to be found, it's almost nowhere to be found. In some planes and some major events, the Justice League also used this place as a shelter when it was avoiding people's eyes.
And now, the place has welcomed two guests who are not part of the wizarding world.
Superman and Batman, representatives of the technology side.
When the two good partners, one light and one dark, walked into the bar side by side, almost everyone in the room turned their heads in unison. A creature resembling an octopus excitedly waves a wine glass in its hand with its tentacles. Wine glasses in all hands.
Several magicians looked at each other in surprise. The orangutan in the cap laughed and said that this is a rare customer, and the bill for these two is on my head.
The two demons with horns on their heads frowned, poured a few sips of wine, and did not speak, but their expressions were clearly vigilant.
"Stranger."
A man in a top hat and dressed in black stood up, most of his body wrapped in a pitch-black cloak. His eyes were pure white, completely unpredictable.
"You don't belong here." He said.
"Stranger." Batman whispered his name.
Phantom Stranger, a documented magical side of the Justice League database. The other party is so powerful that it is tentatively recognized as a friendly army, but Batman has added a big question mark to the back of his file.
Although the Phantom Stranger suddenly appeared to help during a magical incident before the Justice League, his origin has been unknown. It is only known that he has quite strong magical powers, but the background and motivation are not clear.
Batman can't trust someone who doesn't know his roots.
In fact, not to mention Batman, even Shen You doesn't know the roots of Phantom Stranger, because DC Comics has never explicitly explained it. It is only known that he is suspected of doing things for God, and the motive may be to atone for his unknown past.
Superman and Batman stood in front of him, not surprised by the strangers or the odd shapes behind him.
"Well, it looks like you already know what this is." Phantom Stranger said.
"Do us a little favor, we'll leave right away." Batman said coldly.
He doesn't like it much more than Superman. If he had a choice, he would rather everything in this room never existed in the world.
"We're looking for a 4.8-gram shard of kryptonite." Superman said kindly, "Just get that, and we'll leave soon." ”
"Science."
Phantom Stranger said.
"You're walking into the realm of magic, and you're talking about elements and data."
"Yes." Batman looked at the display in his hand, "And science is telling me that some of the power sources we're tracking down are in this bar."
In fact, we can even pinpoint where Superman is? ”
Superman had now walked through the bar under the curious and awe-inspiring eyes of the mages. Although Superman is completely unrelated to the wizarding world, he is also a legendary boss for ordinary mages.
Finally, Superman picks up an inconspicuous taupe locket.
"It doesn't look like kryptonite." He said, "My X vision didn't see any hidden structures inside. ”
"You're too attached to your appearance."
The Phantom Stranger stepped forward and reached out and pressed it against the box.
"It needs to be opened by magic. It's called a meditation amulet! ”
The energy is excited, poured into his hands. A burst of sparkling and gorgeous brilliance bloomed, and a brilliant hedron structure was suddenly revealed below.
The silvery, glowing crystals, with their smooth crystalline appearance, reveal an indescribable beauty.
"Yes, the source of the radiation has been determined." Batman said, "The core is a kryptonite. It's just a new breed of silver that's different from all the records we've known so far. ”
"Not only that, be careful." The Phantom Stranger said, "This amulet has been cast with powerful magic, doubly dangerous for your friends. ”
"Magic is just other forms of science." Batman stubbornly said, "It's not dangerous to find the right way to open it." ”
"Say whatever you want, but don't say I didn't warn you."
"How did it come about?" Batman said, "This one looks old. Most kryptonite on Earth comes after Superman, this fundamentally.
Superman, what are you doing? ”
Batman was visibly taken aback. When he turned his head suddenly, he felt like a parent who had forgotten to take care of the bear child while chatting with an acquaintance he met on the road.
And the bear child, Superman, was picking up the kryptonite as if enchanted.
"It's so pretty, I really want to. Touch it with your own hands."
He removed the protection of his suit.
"Superman!?"
It was too late for Batman to shout. The silver kryptonite suddenly bloomed with dazzling brilliance, and the strong light instantly engulfed Superman. As if he had received some kind of strong impact, he fell backwards and fell to the ground. The silver kryptonite rolled to the side, silent.
The Phantom Stranger was expressionless: "Look. Do you believe it now? ”
Half an hour later.
"Don't worry, he's just asleep."
Shen You simply checked the unconscious blue man who was dragged back by Batman.
"He's in great shape."
"Phantom Stranger says it's a cursed kryptonite." Batman muttered, "Scientifically speaking, maybe he's fine, but we can't be sure what the spell did to him."
"I thought someone didn't believe in magic?" The Flash raised an eyebrow.
"I don't believe it. Magic is just a science to be studied. "But until we find a way to explain it, that doesn't affect how dangerous it is."
And Superman hasn't woken up either, which doesn't bode well. Big Blue doesn't fall easily."
"I think I can help with this part."
Shen You stretched out his hand and swiped lightly on the top of Superman's head. A soft light of light blue shrouded him, and Superman's eyes moved, and after a moment he opened his somewhat heavy eyelids.
"He's awake!"
"Superman?"
Batman stepped forward.
"Can you hear me?"
Superman blinked, a little dazed.
Because he saw Batman in front of him. It's a little small.
looks like a little Zhengtai with pointed ears, with a round face, a pair of small short hands and small short legs, and it looks quite cute.
And Kara, who followed closely behind, was a little blonde loli with a concerned face, big eyes flickering like gems, and a missing front tooth in her mouth.
"Poof."
Superman couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"You guys look funny. Bruce, your ears are so cute. ”
Batman: "??? ”
