Martin Variety in American Comics.

Chapter 533 Judgment and Analysis (Please subscribe and read, monthly ticket recommendation!)
After Cisco left, the atmosphere in the room became a little heavy.

Caitlin insisted on staying, as if she was witnessing the end of something, and this attitude made everyone at a loss for words.

Everyone, including Martin, can feel sad for Caitlin from a friend's perspective, but from a business perspective, they don't care about the fate of Star Labs.

Whenever Martin sees this laboratory, he thinks of Reverse Flash. He feels uncomfortable when he thinks about the survival abilities of these speedsters that are comparable to those of cockroaches.

"I don't know if all the clones of Reverse Flash are dead yet?"

He muttered to himself, then said to Oliver: "Introduce your team members to me!"

"Of course!"

Oliver made an invitation gesture, and as their shoulders touched, he whispered to Martin, "Your excuse for changing the subject is a bit lame. I don't believe that someone like you has not read our files."

"Of course I have read your files, but there is always a gap between the data on paper and the real person."

Martin lowered his voice, making sure that only Oliver could hear what he said.

"Besides, we can't let Caitlin continue to be sad. Although I personally sympathize with her situation, everyone knows that staying in Star Labs will not have any good results."

"I understand what you mean. The Quinn Group has come under a lot of scrutiny because of me. If it weren't for the support of the Alliance, I would have no choice but to bow to those departments."

Although Oliver has not received a complete academic training, he is very smart. During his few years on Devil's Island, he learned the basics needed to face this society and absorbed all the useful information around him in his own way.

“What we do is not an easy thing.”

Martin opened his voice and said directly: "I am not referring to the transfer of wealth. No matter what currency it is, it is just a number to the alliance. If we want, we can make these numbers multiply infinitely."

"But this is not what the alliance is pursuing. What we are pursuing is a change in the relationship between people. We hope to reverse the inertia of history, strive to shoulder the responsibilities entrusted to us by history, and bring mankind into a new era."

Oliver was silent. He looked at Martin but said nothing.

"Why, do you think I'm bragging?"

Martin has experienced too many such doubts, and most people's first reaction when they hear him say this is to think he is a lunatic.

Oliver shook his head. "If you are not qualified to do this, who else on this planet is qualified to say such things? You are the leader of the Justice League. We are all counting on you from now on."

"I have been to many worlds, seen all kinds of scenery, and met many talented people, including some who are strong enough to cause a cosmic disturbance."

"However, no matter how powerful these people are, they cannot lead their race into a new era, or even change the traditional order."

“Times!”

Oliver thought of a lot in an instant, things he had never thought of before.

This is also where he is inferior to Bruce. He spent almost the first half of his life in a life of debauchery. Even if he repented one day, it would not be easy to tap into the talents in his body.

It would take more time for Oliver to expand his eyes to the world at large.

"Isn't this word too heavy for an individual?"

"Of course, but we are an organization now. Although the alliance still has many flaws, we can at least provide a platform for those who are willing to pursue their ideals so that they don't have to run around like headless flies."

Oliver nodded, feeling that his trip to the Star Laboratory today was not in vain.

I realized that I had underestimated Martin and the Justice League. They certainly have a realistic side, but this reality is only a means to achieve their ideals.

"I believe we will have more time to get to know each other better in the future, so for now, let me introduce you to the members of Team Arrow."

Oliver stopped in time. Even though he wanted to continue chatting with Martin, this topic was not that simple and could not be ended in a few words.

"Felicity Smoak, she's an excellent network expert. I'm not exaggerating at all, Felicity is much better than me, a reckless man who can only wield knives and guns."

Martin looked at Felicity, a blonde beauty with glasses and an intellectual beauty.

But this blonde hair is actually dyed.

Martin recalled Felicity's files and discovered that this girl was also an anti-authority person in the past. She used her excellent network capabilities to attack the networks of various departments in the United States.

But he didn't mention the past, he just smiled and shook hands with Felicity.

On the contrary, Felicity was a little timid, as if she was frightened by the aura of authority surrounding Martin.

"I'm not as important as Oliver says. I'm just a hacker. It's an honor to meet you, Mr. Martin!"

Seeing her reaction, Martin said nothing more.

Oliver then introduced the next person: "John Diggle, he used to be a soldier. He was hired by my mother as my bodyguard and later became my helper."

Martin and the man simply shook hands, and neither side had any special reaction.

A large part of John's file is about his various actions in the Middle East battlefield, and he won various medals, but because of his own wishes, he ultimately did not stay in the army and chose to join a security company.

This is also one of the common occupations that US military soldiers will engage in after returning to society.

Although John did not achieve a higher position in the army, he was highly recognized by the army.

Martin saw through the man's thoughts at a glance and gave him a polite smile without making any further judgment.

In the original timeline, this John should have married Leila from the A.D.O.R., and at most become a figure connecting superheroes and the government.

However, the Sky Eye Society had already been badly beaten by Martin and his men, and no one cared about what happened to Leila.

No one knows what the fate of this John will be.

"The remaining two are my sister Thea Quinn and my assistant Roy Harper!"

Oliver also noticed the unharmonious atmosphere between Martin and John, and hurriedly introduced the last two people.

The two young men also followed Oliver to the new city of the Justice League. Although they had never met Martin directly, they witnessed how powerful Martin was from that scene and admired the leader of the Justice League very much.

The two young men each grabbed one of Martin's hands and didn't let go for a long time, just like star-chasers, which made Martin very helpless.

"I'm not a deity. Even if you touch my hand and make it bald, you can't get any deity energy from it!"

In desperation, Martin said something very logical in Chinese, which left Thea and Roy confused.

"Be steady and don't embarrass me!"

Oliver separated the two men and finally freed Martin's hands.

"I apologize to you on behalf of both of them, and I hope you can forgive them for their offense."

"They are all minor matters, not that serious."

Martin waved his hand and passed over the matter.

Thea Quinn is a typical young lady. Due to family changes, she became a playboy who frequented nightclubs and bars and even got involved in addictive drugs.

After Oliver returned to Star City, he used his authority as a brother to forcibly pull his sister out of the abyss of depravity and gave her a mission.

Judging from various records, Xia is not opposed to this mission.

Roy Harper is Oliver's apprentice. He is the son of a forest ranger and has never seen his mother. His father died in a fire when he was two years old while saving members of the Navajo reservation.

To thank old Roy for his sacrifice, the reservation shaman adopted Roy and treated him as a member of the tribe, nurturing his innate talents.

After Green Arrow's first public appearance, Harper immediately developed a hero-worship for the man and eagerly followed his exploits.

When Oliver visits the reservation to judge an archery competition in which Harper is competing, an eager Roy impresses Oliver with his incredible skills.

Later, when Oliver was chasing the robber, Roy shot a crucial arrow, helping Oliver catch the robber and winning Oliver's favor.

Oliver then became Roy's guardian and trained his abilities to make him his assistant.

"Let me think!"

Martin looked at the young couple, thought for a moment, and drew a complex cuneiform-like symbol in the air. The sunlight coming in from the window began to gather, surrounding the rune and forming a small sun.

Everyone in the room saw a pair of colorful wings waving, but they disappeared in an instant, like a rainbow after the rain, turning into two feathers slowly in Thea and Roy's hands.

"This is my gift to you. Carry these two feathers with you, and as long as you are under the sky, the arrows you shoot will be blessed."

Martin thought of the context of the Roy Reservation and recalled the strength he had received from those Holy Spirits in North America.

He hadn't had contact with those deceased holy spirits for a long time, but those guys didn't complain at all. Instead, they were very excited.

"It seems that I have stayed in the unchanging subspace for too long and have forgotten the impression of time."

Martin was thinking about how to bring these holy spirits to the mortal world and let them play a role in resisting Apocalypse.

Xia and Roy caught the palm-length feathers, and they felt as if they were embraced by the sun. Their spirits instantly brightened up, and even their faces became visibly rosy.

"Is this some kind of magic?"

Oliver was very familiar with magic. Although Yao Fei did not teach him any skills, he told him many real anecdotes.

While he was on Devil's Island, he also met that damn bastard Constantine and was tricked by him, but he learned the characteristics of magic.

"Don't worry, the magic you use from me is not a loan."

Martin dispelled Oliver's concerns and said, "We plan to carry out a comprehensive upgrade of the equipment of the alliance members. Everyone will receive a set of standard equipment. In addition, they can obtain upgrade opportunities by completing various tasks."

"But the specific system is still being explored. If you are interested, you can join in."

"me?"

Oliver was a little surprised: "If I'm not mistaken, is this a promotion in disguise?"

“Strictly speaking, no. This is just an attempt by us to explore the development path of the alliance’s collective mechanism. You or others join just an interest group. If you get recognition from others in the process, that’s another matter.”

Martin deliberately revealed some information, and Oliver keenly grasped the key.

But the others didn't take it seriously and were immersed in their own thoughts.

“Thank you for your trust!”

Oliver clasped his hands together and sincerely thanked Martin. His willingness to reveal the information proved that the other party really valued him.

"This information will be announced sooner or later, it's just a day or two earlier."

Martin's favoritism towards Oliver stems from what they have done in countless timelines.

"You arrange for them to continue their original work, and then come with me to interview the people in the laboratory."

Martin said goodbye to Oliver and waved to Caitlin, indicating that she should follow him out.

He took Caitlin to another conference room and said to her:
"Next, you will join us in interviewing the people in the lab. I only have one requirement, and that is that they must be reliable to the Justice League."

"Reliable, what kind of interview requirement is this? We are in a scientific laboratory, shouldn't your interview requirements focus on professionalism?"

Caitlin stared at Martin, the determination on her face showed that she would never make any compromise.

Martin didn't want to argue with Caitlin about his position, so he asked directly, "Are the professional levels of those who can enter the Star Lab so different that they can't be bridged?"

Caitlin was silent.

She knew more about the academic world than Martin. The talent selection mechanism of any country was an elimination system. Those who could complete the difficult academic training system and enter institutions like the Star Laboratory were all the most outstanding talents.

The difference between them is just like 98 points and 99 points. Maybe one is a little more outstanding in some aspects, but only a little.

Geniuses like Bruce, Caitlin and Cisco can go beyond the scoring system, but there are so few of them, and the same standards cannot be used to evaluate ordinary people.

"I understand what you mean!"

Caitlin didn't want to engage in a meaningless argument with Martin.

She could certainly grasp the differences in the academic system and debate with Martin all day, which was actually her major.

But this is meaningless. Martin is not an ordinary person who knows nothing. Being regarded as a ladder to heaven by everyone is just a tool in the eyes of people like him.

"But I still don't agree with your attitude towards science, as if it is something that can be changed at will."

"You asked to stay."

Martin just shook his head: "If you want, you can leave at any time. There is a lot of work waiting for you in the research department."

Caitlin smiled slightly, and when Martin turned around, her face wrinkled and she punched Martin's back hard.

Martin turned around sharply, and Caitlin immediately regained her ladylike demeanor.

"Next time you do this kind of trick, it's better to do it in front of me. Your fighting ability is too poor. Even if you are behind me, you have to be several kilometers away from me to isolate me from your perception."

"I don't understand, have you turned into some kind of humanoid monster today?"

Caitlin had seen a lot of information about superhumans, but she had never seen any ordinary person who could do what Martin did, not even Batman.

"Anyone can do this through simple training. If you are interested, there are many ways in the league to improve your physical fitness."

Martin didn't turn around this time. He waved his hand, motioning Caitlin to leave with him.

"Ma'am, consider it a favor to me and get this fixed quickly. I have a lot of places to run and other things to deal with."

"All right!"

Caitlin took a deep breath and followed Martin to another meeting room.

Oliver had everything prepared, and the first people to be interviewed were from a reliable list that Barry had already made.

As soon as Martin and Caitlin arrived, they officially began.

Caitlin is responsible for asking and judging professional levels. The Research Department has already prepared many test questions to test the levels of alliance members.

Martin was responsible for observing the positions of these people, and Oliver was responsible for observing the psychological conditions they revealed during the interviews.

It took them three days to interview all the people on Barry's list, a total of 120 people, and ten were excluded.

Compared with the total number of people in Star Laboratory, this number is already very small.

"There is nothing wrong with this list Barry. Those who have passed the test will be transferred immediately, including their families who are willing. They should be transferred to the new city as soon as possible!"

Martin signed his name on the final list and handed it to Oliver, leaving him in charge of the matter.

"If you have any questions, go to Bruce and he will provide you with all the help you need."

"I don't think it's necessary. The Quinn Group can handle these things very well."

Oliver finished the list and said that he could handle these things perfectly.

"Don't be angry, Oliver!"

Martin looked at the information of the lab members who were not on Barry's list and said without raising his head: "The future of these families is in your hands. Once the secret operation is revealed, their families will be imprisoned forever."

"I will never let that happen."

"Go on. The next person we are going to interview has not been screened. It requires more accurate judgment. Remember not to argue with them. Stay rational and analyze their words and actions. Write them down."

"Later, Rong En will arrange for someone to take these assessments back for further analysis."

Martin sighed and changed the subject: "Those who fail the interview simply cannot join the Justice League. Those who work in this laboratory may not necessarily be interested in this job. We can transfer the Star Laboratory to the control of other people and continue to run it like this."

Caitlin glanced at Martin, knowing that this was just a remark meant to comfort her, but in the end she said nothing.

PS: I’m working hard on writing, and I will definitely finish it today!
