The Death Knell

Batman finished talking about the next arrangements, and then Ron said a few words to encourage morale. It was the same for organizations all over the world. This was a belated pre-war mobilization.

"We cannot make mistakes. Our multiverse and everything we love is at stake." The green-skinned Martian looked at the faces of each hero and said in a calm tone: "Our enemies have organized a legion, and this The Legion believes that the essence of the multiverse and its destiny are hidden in the totality and in everyone's heart, and that is evil..."

The heroes all looked at him thoughtfully. Only Deathstroke smoked nonchalantly. Ron sighed: "But that's not the case. We will prove them wrong. We will unite the entire universe to fight against them. We will win." …While this may change the world as we know it, it won’t change us, we are the Justice League!”

However, Barry was a little unsure at this time. Nothing he saw in Stasis was evil at all.

Presumably what Ron saw from the colossus and Kendra from the aggregate should be similar to what he saw.

"What if...I mean what if, what if we were wrong?"

Barry's voice became softer and softer as he spoke, and the heroes all looked at him with helpless eyes. Ron was trying to boost morale, so you just agree to it first. Suddenly the topic became so realistic. How could everyone be so motivated? ah?

But Batman didn't let Ron answer the question. He sat quietly in the wheelchair and spoke.

"Then we... carry out justice more deeply."

Everyone nodded. If the world is destined to go wrong, then correcting its mistakes is also worth the effort.

.............

Now everyone was assigned tasks, and soon, only Batman, Diana and Su Ming were left in the conference room.

Diana's eyes kept moving, looking at Batman on the left and Deathstroke on the right, while the two were looking at each other quietly.

It's just that because Bruce is now sitting in a bat wheelchair, he is much shorter than Deathstroke, and he is obviously not as powerful as before.

"You have something to say."

Bruce spoke first. He didn't want to play guessing games with Deathstroke at this time.

"It's time for you to foot the bill, rich man."

"number."

"Well, killing the turtle man is worth two million, repelling the chimpanzees, and saving Neptune and the others is worth one million. After that, I solved the problem of the Eclipse Star. Although it didn't seem to be a complete solution, the people saved were even more. If it’s more, how about two million?”

Su Ming sat down and rested his elbows on the round table in the conference room.

"Okay, I've prepared old cash bills with no serial numbers."

Bruce didn't hesitate at all. He was not interested in money, but as a child of a businessman family, he understood the mercenaries' passion for money.

And it reassured him.

He thought briefly: "If you want to join any of the previous teams, you can."

"What if I want to take over the task of maintaining law and order in Gotham from Barry?" Su Ming smiled and threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stamped it out with his foot.

"......no."

Batman's face became even more gloomy.

If he couldn't move for three months and Deathstroke took over Gotham, wouldn't he have to hang all his 'old friends' in front of the police station a few times?

"Haha..." Su Ming knew this would be the result. Batman was testing him, and he was testing Batman in turn. It turns out that Batman has no sincerity at all: "I have my own things to arrange, and I still like to be with Diana."

Bruce narrowed his eyes. Is this the sympathy between soldiers? Or does the death knell have some other purpose?

In fact, Su Ming was just for Hera's commission. He took the deposit from others, so he naturally had to get things done and couldn't ruin the sign, right?

As for what Batman thought, Su Ming didn't bother to care.

"You are free to move within the Hall of Justice, but it is a time-limited license."

Batman was silent for a moment, then added Deathstroke to the 'Advanced Visitor' column in the main control computer, and then the armor-like wheelchair took him away silently.

Diana on the side was even more confused. What did Deathstroke mean when he spoke boldly just now? Tell Batman he likes...being with her?

Su Ming was also looking at her. The expression on Diana's face was very strange now, a little tangled, she seemed a little proud, but she also looked bored.

She saw Deathstroke looking at her. At this time, there were only two of them in the conference room. The environment became quiet and the atmosphere gradually became ambiguous.

Could it be...

The heroine was a little confused. Deathstroke from another world seemed good, and he even saved her own life. The previous battle between the two completely proved that he was very powerful.

"If he opens his mouth, how should I answer to look bold and free?"

Diana began to make silent calculations in her mind. In short, she would not suffer any loss if she agreed first.

However, Su Ming had no such thoughts at all, and his words would not be about courtship or anything like that.

"What are you going to do next?"

"I...continue to decorate my palace." Diana raised an arm, showed off her muscles, and answered with a smile.

Strong enough and bold enough, right? Why don't you ask me out to hunt World of Warcraft together? Enjoy the Amazon Queen's heroic appearance in battle!

But Deathstroke doesn't.

"Have you had nightmares recently?" Su Ming put on his helmet and arranged his equipment.

"???"

Diana tilted her head. Isn't this question too risky? What does it mean? Is it to judge whether you have iron will and courage?

So she pulled out her sword and struck her shield with it, making a clanging sound: "No, Amazons are never afraid, and I never have nightmares."

"Oh, that's good, you go ahead and get busy, I'm leaving."

Su Ming nodded and sauntered out of the conference room. He was going to find a place to store his small money first.

According to Hera, there is a being who is targeting Diana and trying to awaken the power of witchcraft, the nemesis of divine power and magic.

And Diana encountered that existence when she was a child. If she appeared again, Diana would definitely have nightmares.

Not yet, which means she is still safe for the time being.

Diana stared blankly as the automatic door of the conference room closed behind the death knell, and the black and yellow figure left her sight.

She numbly put the sword back into its scabbard: "Master control computer, what was Deathstroke's heartbeat just now?"

A mechanical voice in the conference room answered her.

"From the moment he arrived at the Hall of Justice, his heart rate was always 40 beats per minute. It never changed."

"hateful!"

Diana gritted her teeth and threw the shield on the table. For the first time, she had doubts about her charm. Does this guy only have money in his eyes?

No, not even the money made him happy. Was he pretending to be something?

Diana squinted her eyes like Batman, she seemed to have discovered something...
