The Knights of the DC House

Three days after the Capitol was triggered by Apokolips, the younger generation led by Ke Wen gathered here in the Titan Building. This should be one of the few times where all members of the Teen Titans gathered together.

After all, they are Teen Titans, and their average age is basically 20 years old. Some of them are not yet officially adults. Most of the time, Ke Wen will not let these underage guys appear. This is also his own insistence.

Normally you can rely on your own abilities to do some good deeds, and that's okay, but in a big event like this, if those of us who are brothers, sisters, uncles and aunts haven't fallen down yet, then it won't be your turn to be little brats. This is the principle.

question.

The same is true for the Titan members here at this time. There are no minors, only young people like Ke Wen, and from the Bat Family, Dick is here. Others have to be responsible for maintaining order in the new Gotham City.

Although the situation in Gotham City has improved now, you still need to be on the most basic precautions, especially now that the whereabouts of Batman and the Justice League are unknown.

At this time, news about Robot Superman was also playing on the TV in the conference room. The title of the news was also very eye-catching - [Returning Hero, Atoning Warrior, Hank Henshaw/Mechanical Superman!]

This headline is about the question and answer situation between the reporter and the so-called expert. Listening to the conversation between the reporter and the expert on TV, everyone present had the same bad look and mood.

The matter has to go back to three days ago, because Leticia's self-exposure used the public opinion offensive to catch Clark off guard as the president. He knew clearly that Leticia and the mechanical superman in front of him had evil intentions, but there was no strong evidence to prove it.

At this point, he could only pinch his nose and give the order, asking Ke Wen and Jonathan Jr. in the Sahara Desert to arrest the mechanical superman, and then let the military take over.

Ke Wen, who understood why Clark did this, had no choice but to resist the urge to smash the mechanical Superman, and together with Jonathan, they twisted it and gave it to the military, and also recovered the kryptonite. What happened next was fun.

Well, Leticia made a so-called device out of nowhere and directly placed the mechanical Superman on it, saying that it could undo the brainwashing program implanted in his mind by Apokolips.

Even though Ke Wen, Jonathan Jr. and Clark all knew that this was an act, they had no way to expose him. They could only let the mechanical superman change from expressionless to blank in a struggle with textbook acting skills, and then when they saw Levin

Tisia burst into tears again, and there was a scene where the lovers finally got married, which was simply disgusting and opened the door to disgusting people - it was so disgusting!

After that, it was very simple. The mechanical superman who pretended to have regained his consciousness also began to confess, telling his name and the reason why the accident happened in the first place was the same as what Ke Wen and Batman knew before. It was nothing more than the incident on the Skyward Sword.

There was technology that Apokolips left to the earth in ancient times, and it was activated under certain circumstances, causing this accident. Then he wandered to Apokolips, was arrested, and did experiments. After learning that Superman was no longer Superman,

, Darkseid transformed himself into a mechanical superman and brainwashed him.

As for his romantic relationship with Leticia, it is easier to explain. As for Leticia's past, you can find it if you are careful. She has been separated from Lex and Lena's father for a long time and found Hank.

·Henshaw, the soul mate, is as simple as that. Of course, if things just ended here, everything would be easy to say, but as a mechanical superman, Hank Henshaw also took the initiative to propose that he could not guarantee the end of the brainwashing program in his body.

have been completely cleared.

The power of alien technology is indeed not comparable to the current technology on earth. Therefore, for the safety of himself and others, he voluntarily was imprisoned by the military until the military and the president determined what kind of trial he should receive. A set

The self-exposure of adding death to life completely prevented Ke Wen and the others from taking action against Robot Superman and Leticia in the open. Now everyone is paying attention to this matter. If there is not enough evidence, they will fail if they take action.

Real population.

This turmoil caused by Apokolips eventually turned into a whitewashing drama between Robot Superman and Leticia. The most ridiculous thing is that Ke Wen and the others initially thought that Robot Superman and Leticia were cooperating with Darkseid.

Great destruction. They had made all preparations, but they did not expect that they would overtake an entire army. They have not been able to deal with them well until now.

"Have they been looking for Wonder Woman?" Ke Wen also asked after waving his hand and turning off the annoying report on the TV.

"No, I used the mother box's positioning system for Apokolips and found no traces related to Wonder Woman and the others in the universe where Apokolips is located. I suspect that Darkseid did not bring them back to Apokolips.

They are directly exiled to a different universe. In this case, it will take more time for them to come back. In addition, I don’t think Batman will suffer the same fate as Wonder Woman and the others."

Cyborg was also there reporting on his work over the past three days. It was disgusting. Since Leticia was playing this game within the rules, Ke Wen and the others could not break the rules and could only do what they could do now.

thing.

"I know this, and I will look for insiders to find out about this. Let's not talk about Batman for now. What about the biochemical creations Lex created to deal with Superman? What is the situation now?"

As for Cyborg's speculation about Batman's disappearance, Ke Wen also has a good idea, but he doesn't want to say it now. It concerns the dark multiverse and the dark and corrupt Batman, so don't put so much pressure on his group.

"Part of it has been solved, and the rest is missing. When Kara and I checked these guys, we found that they had Apokolips technology on them. The most likely thing is that they have some kind of connection with the Mother Box. Of course, it's not Apocalypse.

The mother box of the star was imitated here on Earth. It can only be transferred in space on Earth. If I guess correctly, this should be a victim of my mother paving the way for her lover."

When talking about Leticia, her biological mother, Lena's expression became a little complicated. Even if she knew the truth about her childhood memories, she also knew that she was just a commodity for Leticia. But after all, Leticia

She is her biological mother, how can she be relieved so easily? Unlike Lex, she has been living in the cruel truth from beginning to end.

"Okay, I understand the general situation. At present, we can't touch Leticia and Robot Superman. Of course, I don't think Leticia has been idle in the past three days. The news just now shows that she is also giving

Mechanical Superman works hard to clear his name. No matter how Mechanical Superman is judged in the end, what we can do now is to find those missing biochemical creations first and then destroy them. We cannot let her clear her name for Mechanical Superman so easily. For other things, you can go back.

They are also optimistic about their respective cities and will notify everyone directly if something is wrong.

At this time, everyone should stop practicing personal heroism. The situation of the Justice League is unclear now, and the only ones who can help here are us. That’s it, everyone should go back and pay attention.”

A simple meeting ended like this. At this time, Ke Wen didn't have time to talk to Karado, because now Kara needs help in Metropolis. Leticia, the place where Robot Superman is most likely to cause trouble is in Metropolis.

In the city, little Jonathan alone can't do it. As for Lena, she also had to take care of Lex who was admitted to the ward again, although she didn't know what method Lex used to escape from the trap Leticia set for him.

Escape.

But the price paid was not small. After suffering two losses, Lex learned the lesson, and Lena didn't want her brother to be in danger again, especially in this situation.

After everyone left, Ke Wen was alone in the conference room in a daze. He waved his hand and the holographic image on the conference table also listed the current situation. The icons representing Wonder Woman and others were always dim.

And Clark is currently arguing with the military and Congress over how to deal with Mechanical Superman. If nothing else, the technology contained in Mechanical Superman alone is enough for the members of Congress and the military to take a risk

.

In the face of such huge interests, they don't care what kind of benefits you, the president, can bring to them. After all, what you said has not been realized yet, but the mechanical superman is right in front of them, and they know how to choose.

On the contrary, what Ke Wen is now concerned about is not what Robot Superman and Leticia will do after they are cleared. Compared with this, what Cyborg said just now worries Ke Wen more. He had previously learned from Dick that Batman was alone again.

He went on the mission alone without telling anyone. After meeting Savage in the Amazon rainforest, he returned to Gotham and began to investigate the past affairs of Skyward Sword, Leticia and Robot Superman.

This also made Ke Wen start to think about whether Batman has been aware of things about the Dark Multiverse and the existence of the Dark Fallen Knights. In Dark Nights: The Beginning of the Metal Event, Ke Wen also vaguely remembered the conflict

It was in the Amazon rainforest at the beginning, but in the comics, the Dark Fallen Knights appeared together. If Batman's disappearance was not due to Apokolips, it means that a fallen Batman has already come to the main universe of the Light Multiverse.

?

"How is this possible?" He calculated mentally and unintentionally. Ke Wen himself may not have thought that the last fallen Batman was not born in the Dark Multiverse, but from the timeline that should have been erased from the branch of the main universe, Flashpoint.

Thomas Wayne and Martha Wayne in the timeline. More importantly, Ke Wen also discovered a problem. Zatanna has since said that she would go back to the Tower of Aion to visit her old father.

But since the events of Knights Origin, neither Zatana nor the magician Zatara, a member of the Justice League, has appeared. It’s as if they don’t know everything that happens in this world. This is not right either. Izatar

With Na's character, it is impossible for them to not be aware of what happened during this period, unless there is something bigger, something bigger than the original Knight, or even something more serious than the current crisis of the mechanical superman, happening in a corner that they don't know about.

"Damn, I'm really confused about all of this, but when it comes to magic, I have to ask a professional for advice."

The continuous strange events made Ke Wen upset. After forcing himself to calm down, he immediately opened the rainbow dimensional wall and left the Titan Building.

Europe, Black Forest, when the Rainbow Dimension Wall appeared here with Ke Wen, Ke Wen was also stunned. Because he always thought that the guy he was looking for would stay in London, but now he came to Germany.

Yes, doubts are doubts, but Ke Wen has too many questions that need to be answered now. Looking at the forest cabin in front of him that looks very abrupt in the dark forest, Ke Wen also walks towards it.

A simple blind trick and barrier could not stop Ke Wen. He easily crossed the magic barrier that was used to hinder ordinary people. When he opened the door, he was greeted by the smell of alcohol in the room, which almost made Ke Wen breathless.

. He waved his hand and cast a small magic island at will. The cyclone circled around the room, directly dispersing the smell of alcohol in the room. Suddenly, his breathing became much easier.

"Bloody Hell! Etrigan! I told you not to use damn magic in this room, how many times do you need me to repeat it!"

Just when Ke Wen used magic to clear the room of alcohol, a familiar British accent sounded. Wearing a Mickey-colored windbreaker, blond hair with a chicken coop, and unmanaged stubble, he looked exactly like John dressed as a tramp.

·Constantine wandered out with drunken steps, still scolding a guy named Etrigen.

"John?"

Looking at the hell detective in front of him, Ke Wen couldn't believe his eyes. Is this the same guy he knew? He was in good spirits when we met several times before, and he even quit smoking. Why haven't we seen each other for several years?

Became an alcoholic.

"Oh, you." Walking drunkenly, when Ke Wen called his name, John Constantine also saw Ke Wen, stopped, squinted his drunken eyes and looked at him for a long time, and then recognized Ke Wen.

.

Before Ke Wen could exchange greetings, John directly threw the wine bottle in his hand towards Ke Wen. The spilled wine and the bottle were frozen in mid-air by Ke Wen. With a casual finger, the wine and the bottle

He took it back intact and placed it on the table. Then he stretched out a hand on the table and drank the bottle of wine on the table. At this time, Ke Wen also saw this hand.

's owner.

This is a demon with the unique sulfur smell of hell, tawny skin, and red eyes. After drinking the bottle of wine that Ke Wen brought to him, he also burped directly at Ke Wen, but

What came out of his mouth was fire.

A simple fire attack could not cause any harm to Ke Wen. After he finished burping, he looked at Ke Wen who was unharmed. The demon who was still immersed in alcohol just now seemed to have seen his prey and suddenly woke up.

He came over. Ke Wen also felt the dangerous atmosphere from him.

"Finally, I can have a hearty fight!"

"What?"

After saying that, the demon named Etrigen stood up and waved one hand. The flame in his hand directly split the table in front of him in half. The flame condensed in his hand and turned into a long steel sword.

Rushing towards Ke Wen.

Ke Wen, who didn't understand what was going on at all, was thrown a bottle as soon as he entered the door, spit fire, and then swords were exchanged. Even he couldn't help but get angry. Just when the battle between one man and one demon was about to break out, the hungover

John finally woke up, looked at the two sides preparing to fight, and then hurriedly spoke out.

"Stop it, Iletgen, he's my friend!"

"Ah, a boring party..." After hearing what John said, Iletgen, who was about to take action, lost all interest. He sheathed his sword, raised his head and fell to the ground, falling into a deep sleep. Looking at this person lying on the ground, he fell into a deep sleep.

The demon fell asleep, and then Ke Wen looked at Constantine.

"Now I'm your friend again? You're still the first one to throw a bottle at your friend as soon as he walks in."

"I can't help it. That's how I am. I don't like to see other people's kindness, so I like to throw things. So what kind of wind brings you here, the great hero who saves the world and saves the universe, Kamen Rider."

Listening to Constantine's strange compliments, Ke Wen didn't understand where he had offended him. "Did I do anything to hurt you? Don't tell me that it was because of the memory storm of the old universe.

Then I really think you are a psychopath."

After thinking about it, Ke Wen could only think of the memory rebirth incident in the old universe. After all, Zatanna seemed to have been with Constantine in the old universe.

"Huh? I am praising you from the bottom of my heart. You are so awesome. You are the only lucky one. I can only stay in this room and never see the light of day!"

"What happened, John? Did something happen to Zha?!"

Listening to Constantine's incompatible content, Ke Wen was confused and could only think about Zatanna. When he thought of this, Ke Wen was not as calm as before. He stepped forward and pulled her

Constantine's collar was raised in front of him.

"Tell me, what happened to Xiao Zha, or is there something wrong with the so-called magic world?"

"Ah, smart boy, but unfortunately, you got the answer wrong. There is nothing wrong with the magic world. We, all of us, including me, without you, are just paying off debts. That's why I hate magic, all of it.

Magic has a price. Except for you, the lucky one, you don’t need to know what happened, because it has never been about you, so don’t ask me, it’s not your business, haha.”

With Ke Wen holding up his collar and smelling of alcohol, Constantine was also saying these messy words. But from Constantine's words, Ke Wen also understood that there was something wrong with the magic world. Maybe this was

The reason why Zatanna hasn't come back until now is that no matter how Ke Wen pressed, Constantine looked like a drunkard and didn't want to talk to Ke Wen at all, including the demon who fell on the ground and slept soundly, It.

Legan.

Devil? Looking at the devil lying on the ground sleeping, Ke Wen also thought of another existence. He stretched out his hand and dug directly into Constantine's arms. Soon, he took out a seal from Constantine's windbreaker.

There was a devil's card, in which a red-skinned devil was playing the piano. He threw Constantine on the chair and looked at the drunken Constantine. Ke Wen couldn't say anything.

"I don't know what made you like this, but I will figure it out, and it's almost time for you to sober up."

With a warning, Ke Wen also turned around and left. He held the devil card he took out from Constantine's arms, injected it with magic power, then turned the door handle and opened the door directly. On the other side of the door, Ke Wen also appeared directly on the other side of the earth.

At one end, Los Angeles, Bar of Light. Here is the Lord of Hell who plays the human world, Lucifer, who holds half of the power of the Supreme God in the DC universe.

Since Constantine didn't tell him what happened in the magical world, Ke Wen had to find Lucifer, the highest spokesperson in this regard, to understand the situation. Ke Wen really didn't like dealing with this Lord of Hell. He was a two-way plug.

Needless to say, asking Lucifer for help is equivalent to owing Lucifer a favor. This favor may be as small as coming over to work as a waiter for him for a day, or as big as saying that you sell your soul to the devil is nonsense.

Of.

It’s just that when Ke Wen opened the door and walked into the Light Bar, what he saw was not Lucifer, the Lord of Hell playing the piano on the second floor. On the contrary, it was a woman with a good appearance, figure and temperament.

female.

"Ah, you made a mistake, come again." In addition to embarrassment, Ke Wen also thought that the way he opened it was wrong. When he was about to go back and do it again, the lady sitting by the piano also spoke.

"I assume you're here to see Lucifer, right? I'm Chloe, Detective Chloe."

Chloe's self-introduction and words also made Ke Wen stop, looked at the female police detective, and then asked: "So you know Lucifer?"

"Well, and I also know that you are not an ordinary person, but I think you won't be able to see Lucifer recently."

"Aha, so where did he go."

"Well...he went to hell."

"Ha, this is really a perfect expression. I'm lonely. I'm sorry to bother you. I guess you want to ask me if I can go to hell to meet Lucifer, but I'm sorry, I can't. And

To this day, I don’t know what happened, so good night.”

Without giving Detective Chloe a chance to continue questioning, the door was closed. When Ke Wen appeared again, he found that he was already outside Constantine's cabin in the woods. Looking at the closed door of the cabin in the woods, Constantine's house just now

Words, Lucifer's sudden return to hell at this critical moment made Ke Wen understand that big things that he didn't know were happening in the magic world, but he didn't show any signs, including himself, who was also a magician.

Feeling half uncomfortable.

But Constantine’s words told Ke Wen that people in the entire magic world are paying off debts. What debts are they paying? Whose debts are they? If all the magicians in the magic world are provided with magic by a certain existence, then now it is a certain existence.

When I was collecting debts from magicians in the magical world, why didn't I do anything?

Looking at the Lucifer Demon Card in his hand, Ke Wen also murmured to himself: "So do you know something before you have to go back? After all, when it comes to magic, isn't hell a magical product?

I don’t understand anymore.”

Talking about his confusion, the rainbow dimensional wall rose, taking Ke Wen away from the Black Forest and directly back to his own detective agency in Nasino City. Sitting on the chair, Ke Wen also began to analyze everything that happened so far.

After sorting it out, whether it was the turmoil in Apokolips or the changes in the magical world that were happening in places he didn't know about, Ke Wen always felt that there seemed to be a hand behind everything, and he had to find this hand now.

The owner!
