The Death Knell

People always think that they can determine the future direction, that they can know all the changes in life, that they are ready and that everything is under control.

But in fact, people have no control over anything and are still clinging to their home planet and struggling to survive. They can't even see clearly how fate works.

Sometimes people get lucky, and many people think that this is God's favor; sometimes people get unlucky, and these people think that they are abandoned by God.

But often when they think this way, God actually doesn’t do anything.

But when fate dies and God really takes action, people don't realize it at all. They will look for various scientific explanations and seek psychological comfort in ways that they can understand.

As everyone knows, completely believing in science is actually another kind of superstition.

No one noticed when all this started to happen. When the green raindrops fell on the ground, they made the same sound as ordinary rain.

This water gathers on the ground, flows quietly like a stream, and flows into the sewers of human creation, or directly into the sea or underground.

But soon, changes occurred. The most advanced high-tech equipment was the first to suffer problems. They broke down in the mist of water vapor. Particle accelerators, supercomputers, and nuclear reactors all lost their movement;

Next are electromagnetic waves that are also invisible to people. Rain blocks them from transmitting messages. Television, telephones, and the Internet, all the information means that modern people rely on, are cut off.

Next, the generation process of electricity itself is blocked, as if someone has erased the existence of electrons. Even though the turbines in the hydropower station are still rotating under the influence of water flow, no electricity flows into the wires.

Next, came the internal combustion engines. All vehicles and aircraft lost their function almost at the same time. Now the unlucky people can only be left on the streets filled with heavy rain, or fall freely like the rain.

And all of this happened in just a moment. During this time, the Justice League was meeting, the Justice Society was at the investigation site, the Doom Patrol was preparing to separate, and the Teen Titans were on the plane.

"What bad luck!" Black Wally grabbed the chair in front of him and shouted towards Damian in the driver's seat: "You summoned us in the middle of the night and said you found something and wanted to come to the Hall of Justice to join in the fun, but you Why didn’t you refuel the plane you stole from your father?”

"You should say Batman, not my father." Damian answered his teammates coldly. Even though the plane was crashing, he did not panic at all: "This Bat aircraft does not use oil, it is nuclear-powered. "

His attitude was too serious, and this immediately made the little black man throw up his hands in surrender. Poor Wally didn't understand why Damian seemed to be repelled by the word father.

"We are now at an altitude of 18,000 feet. How sure are you of a safe emergency landing?" Emiko was equally calm. Although she looked like a retro martial artist with a bow and arrow on her back, this was not the first time she had crashed.

As a member of the Green Arrow family, everyone in their family seems to be burdened with a curse. If they fly on a plane, the plane crashes; if they ride on a yacht, the yacht sinks, which highlights their incompatibility with large-scale transportation.

"hundred percent."

With a calm tone, Damian glanced at the dashboard. Although the joystick in his hand was shaking like a running wild bull, he still pulled it up to the highest level and explained to his teammates:

"I have calculated it. The current distance and height are enough for us to glide above the Hall of Justice. Martian Manhunter should be on duty today. He has a way to catch each of us."

In order to prevent interference from electronic warfare means, in addition to electronic instrument equipment, Batman's aircraft also has a set of old-fashioned mechanical instruments, which came in handy this time.

Of course, the probability of nothing is 100%. Da Mi said this to reassure his teammates. In fact, when the aircraft fell to the ground like a piece of iron, his gloves were full of sweat.

What if Martian Manhunter happened to be taking a bath in the bathroom when the plane crashed? What if he was too busy eating chocolate and reading a magazine?

Therefore, no one else can be relied on, and he can only rely on himself. Damian understands this. He mentioned a member of Zhenglian just to give his teammates confidence. After all, they are still children. There are adults who can rely on them at critical moments. Listen. Always a good thing.

Except for Emiko, who is dark enough that she can even see through herself, but she won't say it out loud.

Thinking of this, Damian still felt a little funny, because in the past, he would not have thought that Ron would desert while on duty. This way of thinking was learned from his father, and he is becoming more and more like him... ...

"It doesn't matter to me, I won't fall to death anyway." On the back seat, Crush hugged the giant spirit and the two of them ate supper together, looking very relaxed: "I'm a little glad that I am a Zanian now."

As the daughter of a violent wolf, of course she also inherited the super regenerative ability. This height would not kill her. If she didn't wait to see if she could help her teammates when the plane crashed, she could actually jump directly from here. .

The djinn, who also ate food like a little squirrel, also nodded. As the last djinn, she also didn't have to worry about crashing. Magic would protect her.

However, her character is not as flamboyant as Crushing. She is just preparing to cast a spell while eating to see if she can land the aircraft safely. After all, this aircraft is expensive at first glance.

If Damian broke it, Batman would be angry, right?

"Hey, when you put it like that, I don't seem to be afraid of a plane crash." Billy Wu patted his uniform, then rolled himself into a huge ball. He could still make a sound: "I am very flexible, and when the plane crashes I should still be able to play Lao Gao.”

But soon, he discovered that he could not change back. The alien's high-tech uniform happened to fail at this moment. He was so panicked that he could not speak, but his teammates did not notice the fat boy's condition.

"...Well, it's just me, Damian, and Red Arrow who are unsafe, right?" Black Wally showed a standard black question mark face, and he stood still with some embarrassment: "If I had known, I I should ask my other self how I use the Speed ​​Force to stir up the air and fly."

The interior of the cabin was dark. The power outage and engine stalling made the sound of air friction outside the cabin particularly obvious. It was obviously one of the most advanced aircraft on earth, but it was stunned by the whistle of a Stuka dive bombing.

For those who would not be affected by the crash, the sound combined with the feeling of weightlessness was quite exciting.

"You can't learn it. That's another Wally's exclusive skill. Even Barry can't learn it." Damian ruthlessly dismissed his teammates' thoughts and silently took a small prop from his belt and held it in his hand: "If I were you, rather than having those unrealistic ideas, it would be more useful to sit in the back and fasten your seat belt."

The little black man shrugged and sat in the co-pilot's seat. At this time, the plane had broken through the curtain of rain clouds in the sky and fell towards the dark horizon.
