The Death Knell

"Are you sure leaving Superboy-Prime on our Earth like this is the right choice?"

There was a worried look on Bobo's face. No matter how much time passed, he still had no confidence in the bottom line of Superboy Supreme. That child was too unstable. People who act according to their preferences or moods without considering the pros and cons are the most terrifying. of.

Su Ming calmly asked Strangler to check the surrounding environment, such as radiation readings in the air, oxygen ratio, temperature and humidity, and other things.

These are originally the functions of the light ring, but the symbiote is more convenient and reliable than the light ring.

There are thick dark clouds in the sky. From the faint light, you can tell that the sun is about to set. The nuclear winter may still have lingering power. Even if there is no snow, the ground is still cold. Bobo keeps taking turns to land on one foot. At this point the disadvantage of not wearing shoes became apparent.

"Don't worry, Bobo, little Clark is actually a good boy. He just didn't know how to get better in the past." The voice of the death knell seemed to come from the abyss, but he quickly took off his mask, and the speaker The voice also returned to normal: "With Oliver watching, nothing will go wrong. At least you should give more trust to the eighth member of the Justice League."

The protective shield that was buckled on everyone's heads like a big bowl was also removed. There was radiation in the surrounding environment, but it was far from the level that would harm health or cause human body mutation.

There may be a lot of radiation left in the water, but so far no liquid water has been seen on this planet.

"But Green Arrow is just an ordinary person. He doesn't have any super powers." When Bobo saw that the protection was removed, he knew that there was no danger here. He walked towards Deathstroke: "And he is a bitter person with deep hatred and bad luck. good."

Su Ming shook his head with a smile, looked up at the red clouds in the sky, and threw a cigarette to Bobo:

"Batman and I are also ordinary people, but when have ordinary people let you down?"

"Yes, little orangutan, we are all ordinary people." Harley hugged Poison Ivy and Black Orchid and moved closer, with a lofty smile of a medical worker on her face: "There is a gap between self-awareness and collective cognition. There is no doubt that there are differences, but people must be able to see themselves clearly in order to live happily.”

The black-haired detective lowered his head to light the cigarette, took a deep puff, climbed up on Deathstroke's shoulders and sat down on his hands and knees: "This has nothing to do with any cognition, I just always doubt your understanding of 'ordinary people'. What’s the misunderstanding about the word?”

Speaking of which, Green Arrow seems to be a normal person. At least he has a clear positioning of himself, as a backup staff member of the Justice League.

Harley let go of the waists of the two women, walked over to Deathstroke and hugged his arm, smiling and saying to Bobo through the crowd:

"If everyone's opinion is opposite to yours, then you'd better change your opinion, even if you just pretend to change it, otherwise you will be regarded as a madman, right?"

"I can't tell you, a professional psychiatrist, but the fact that an orangutan can talk is crazy enough. What's crazy is our world."

Bobo is not going to argue with Harley anymore. We are not chatting in the bar right now. We can talk about things. We are now in a new multiverse, and the situation here is completely unknown. He shook his head and changed the topic:

"Forget about that, Slade. After you and Superboy went around the Hall of Justice, you returned to the underground alone. You directly dragged us and let the adjutant carry out the teleportation. You haven't said anything about what's going on up there. Electricity Was it really stolen from the air?"

"Ah, that's pretty much it. Besides, there's a traitor within the Justice League."

Deathstroke's gaze swept across the endless wasteland. No matter which direction he looked, the sky was filled with loess. The only difference was that there were fewer craters in some directions and more in some directions.

The crater mentioned here is not a cannonball, but a deep crater with a smooth inner wall formed by the air explosion of a nuclear bomb. The shock wave blows away a large amount of soil and rocks, and the inner wall is smooth due to high temperature and air pressure.

Although I don’t know what happened here in the past, it is obvious that someone realized the dream of using nuclear bombs to clean the land.

"Traitor? Have you told Green Arrow the news?" Bobo's paw holding the cigarette trembled. He didn't like hearing this word, because internal enemies would always ruin the mood of his friends.

He did not doubt Deathstroke's statement. He had always had this suspicion himself, but now it was just confirmed.

"Actually, this was intelligence provided by Green Arrow. The moment the power went out, he and Dinah were locked in the control room. Then someone used Batman's backhand and injected hypnotic gas."

Su Ming nodded towards Black Orchid. The woman understood what he meant and began to close her eyes to communicate with the Redness of All Beings. Su Ming himself lit up a cigarette and said:

"In addition, earlier, a Deathstroke whose height and weight were completely different from mine sneaked into the Hall of Justice. Is it easy to sneak into that place? But he even walked to the door of the conference room, so it must be The result of the harmony between inside and outside.”

If it was just speculation when we encountered the fake Deathstroke, then what happened not long ago was a second confirmation that there was a traitor in Zhenglian.

"Could it be Mr. Excellence who did it?"

Bobo narrowed his eyes. He always thought there was something wrong with the black man. Since the orangutan himself was black, this idea was not discrimination.

Mr. Excellence has a high level of technology. Whether he is manufacturing robots or stealing electricity, he needs the support of scientific and technological theory. In addition, he is also very rich and smart. As a member of the Justice League, he can obtain a lot of scarce materials.

This is how liquid robots may have come about.

Secondly, he provided canned soybeans to Deathstroke and himself, leading the two to Gotham. When everyone else went to the meeting with the Incarnation of Justice, he had the opportunity to launch the plan.

Having set aside the death knell, you can still know where the death knell is. This is a disguised form of surveillance.

Another point is that although no one knows what Cyborg knows yet, the robot boy is now in the hands of Mr. Excellence, and he has taken away another possible clue.

The orangutan detective was reasoning, and the more he thought about it, the more suspicious the man with the red T letter painted on his face became. There were only a few people in the Zhenglian with technological capabilities. If Batman didn't laugh, it meant he was still normal. So where were Luthor and Superman? If there is no chance to take action together, isn't Mr. Excellence the only one left?

It can't be Blue Beetle, right? He has been recuperating recently. He has taken a long leave since he was infected by the Laughter Virus and was out of control and was rescued. During this period, he has not even been to the Hall of Justice.

"not him."

Although the orangutan's expression seemed to be about to jump out and say, "There is only one truth," and his eyes were getting brighter and brighter, Deathstroke, as if he had read his mind, directly spoke and choked off his reasoning. The mercenary crossed his arms and waited for the news from Black Orchid. At the same time, he asked Bobo:

"Mr. Excellence is a sane and normal person, and he has no history of mental illness in the past. If such a smart person is determined to stand against the most powerful superheroes on earth, he will definitely need real and huge benefits. But it’s obvious that Darkseid can’t give Mr. Excellence what he wants.”

Betrayal is not uncommon, and many people even say that "loyalty is only because there are not enough chips for betrayal." As for the brainwashing methods to make people loyal, let's talk about it separately.

"Then what does he want?" Bobo touched his chin. Scientists and magicians are very similar in many ways. That is, 'knowledge' has a strong temptation for them. In order to obtain knowledge, they will pay any price. He has seen too many people who don't even frown at all.

Su Ming touched the orangutan's head with his backhand, looked at the bloody twilight falling on the distant horizon, and said calmly:

"Mr. Excellence's character is never to stand under a dangerous wall. What he wants is the most 'stable' way of life, and he avoids any risk-taking or blood-licking behavior. Being a human traitor is not a way to live a stable life. way."
