American comics: Enlightenment in Arkham, Ascension to Homelander.

Chapter 242 It wasn’t me!
"Bruce, have you seen the news from Washington too!"

He spoke to Bruce first, and Bruce responded to him quickly.

"Lucius, I see. Next, you need to transfer as many employees of the group and nearby citizens as possible to the underground facilities of the Wayne Group for shelter.

If there is an idiot who doesn't want to go to Wayne Group, I recommend that he hide near Downton Abbey as soon as possible!
I will immediately ask Ah Fu to contact the city hall to issue a similar evacuation notice!"

After he finished speaking, Bruce quickly hung up the phone and called Alfu again.

And at this moment in Downton Abbey...

Accompanied by the melodious music played by the band, Downton enjoyed the open-air music Barbie Q with a smile.

After taking a bite of the lamb chop, he picked up the whiskey and raised his glass to the others.

"Cheers to Zatanna for joining our family, guys, we finally have our first elite cadre of wizards!
The Zatara family, to which Zatanna belongs, enjoys the title of King of Magic in the Earth's magic world. From now on, Zatanna is our magic consultant!

If you have any questions about magic, just ask Zatanna!

But, Selina, you are not allowed to learn charm magic from Zatanna to harm other little girls!!!"

"Ah this..."

Zatanna swallowed nervously after hearing what Donton said.

Then, she raised the champagne in her hand and spoke to Donton nervously.

“Ghost… Boss, I am just giving you a piece of information. I haven’t said I will join your family yet.

I……"

"You call me the Ghost Boss, so you are my man, haha!
Once you call me boss, I will be your boss for life. Don’t worry, I will protect you as the boss!”

Donton interrupted Zatanna carelessly and drank the whiskey in the glass in one gulp.

On the side, Lex drank a glass of champagne, smiled and nodded to Zatanna.

“Ms. Zatanna, I do have a lot of questions about magic, and I hope I can get answers from you.

First of all, I want to know whether magic is the power of human beings themselves. This is very important!"

"Ah this...I...uh..."

Facing Lex's question, Zatanna lowered her head in embarrassment.

“I’m not sure either, but I learned magic as I went along.

My father hung me upside down since I was a child and made me recite various spells in reverse language, and then simplified the spells into everyday language.

Although my dad always told me that using magic comes at a price and I should avoid it if possible.

But he has been missing for two years. I have used a lot of magic in these two years but didn’t feel any cost. Maybe he is just trying to scare me?
So, you see, I learned magic by myself, and I haven’t discovered any cost so far, so… anyway, magic should be our own human power, right?
I don’t know much more, I’ve been staying at home all the time, actually I don’t have as much experience as the ghosts described, hehe~”

At this point, Zatanna couldn't hide her youthful nature and gave a shy and satisfied smile to Downton's compliment.

At the same time, Donton raised his glass to Zatanna and said.

"Don't call me Revenant, man, I'd rather you called me Don.

Trust me, you'll have a great time living in a family, we're not the fucking Justice Society of America here.

We don't talk about sacrifice and dedication here, and we won't force you to be a hero.

As a family, we usually only talk about happiness and gains! ”

"Yes, happiness and harvest, cheers to the Downton family!!!"

Selina suddenly took over what Donton said and raised her glass to everyone.

While holding the wine, she hugged the blushing Rachel tightly and bit her face.

Rachel helplessly escaped from Selina's mouth, then looked around regretfully.

Whether it was Alfu, Lex's friend and butler Pierce, or everyone else, everyone was drinking happily here.

But... Bruce the bastard went out to fool around with other men again!!!
Looking at Selina who was in high spirits, Rachel raised her wine glass with envy.

Look at other people’s men. Even if they go to other universes to fool around, they still know to come back at night.

But my man, huh, is not at home during the day, and not at home at night!
As she thought about it, Rachel took a sip of her wine and then put the glass next to her.

Noticing Rachel's dejected expression, Selina moved her hand from her shoulder to her armpit.

She whispered as she gently rubbed Rachel's side and back with her palm.

"Don't think about Bruce, men all have their own favorite careers, and it's great for us women to occupy a place in their hearts~

So, when they are not around, we women have to stick together for warmth~

Now that there is another woman in the family, the three of us should come out and sit together more often in the future~"

"Okay, Sister Selina!" Rachel nodded heavily.

Seeing Rachel's eyes gradually returning to normal, Selina pursed her lips lightly, then gently lifted the hair at her temples and tucked it behind her ears.

The side profile she deliberately showed made Rachel swallow uncontrollably.

On the side, watching the interaction between Rachel and Selina, Alfred couldn't help but be hooked.

The good news is that the two hostesses of the house get along very well.

The bad news is... it's too peaceful, and it's likely to get even more peaceful in the future...

As Alfred thought about it, he shook his head again, but just as he was sighing in his heart, his phone suddenly rang.

After picking up the phone and taking a look at it, Ah Fu quickly put it to his ear.

"Bruce, what happened? Have you found out what's going on in Arkham?"

"There's no time for that, Alfred, contact Gotham City Hall immediately and come up with an emergency evacuation plan for tonight as quickly as possible!
If you haven't read the news about Washington, check it out while you're at it. Floyd and I will be back at the manor soon!"

Having said that, Bruce hung up the phone.

After a moment of stunned silence, Alfred quickly stood up from his seat.

"master!"

He said quickly to Downton.

"There's a disaster happening in Washington, D.C., and Gotham may also be affected. I have to go take over Gotham City Hall, so I have to leave for a while!"

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Donton nodded slightly.

"Go."

At the same time as Downton responded, Pierce, Lex's butler, assistant and childhood friend, quickly took out a computer from the briefcase at his feet.

"Master Lex, Master Downton, I will immediately look for information about Washington, and then... wait, it seems that there is no need to check!!!"

Before Pierce could finish his sentence, he turned the computer screen towards the crowd.

After seeing the images taken by Luthor Group’s own satellite, Lex stood up suddenly!
"What the hell is this?!!"

He was seen yelling and looking at Donton in astonishment.

"Why is Washington destroyed like this?!!"

"I didn't do it!"

Donton quickly raised his hands and quickly defended himself.

Listening to Downton's answer, even though Luther was very anxious, he was confused by Downton's self-defense.

After a brief moment of confusion, he quickly spoke.

"Of course I know it wasn't you!
What I'm asking is, who do you think did this?

And Ms. Zatanna, what do you think of this kind of disaster that happened in Washington?"

"It's a combination of divine power and witchcraft!"

Zatanna answered quickly.

Although Zatanna is still very young, the great magician nature in her bones cannot be changed. After confirming that Washington had suffered a major attack, she didn't even care about her father and hurried to the computer to confirm it.

After she carefully looked at the spell in the satellite image, she nodded firmly and continued.

“Yes, the proportion of witchcraft and spells is higher, but it does have a small amount of divine power!

I speculate that this should be a totem of a primitive tribe in South Africa or a god worshipped by a wizard, or perhaps some ancient wizard has survived to this day!"

"I see!"

After getting the answer from Zatanna, Lex nodded quickly and then looked at Downton.

"Don, do you know the gods of South Africa?"

"Come on, how could I know them?

But I'm not exaggerating. If they were gods with some ability, they would definitely know to stay away from me.

But I’m just afraid these guys don’t know how powerful I am, haha!”
