Martin Variety in American Comics.

Chapter 548: Volunteering and Provoking (Please subscribe and read, monthly ticket recommendation!)
If we rank the bases in these four regions, Asia, Africa, Latin America and the seabed, in order of their degree of danger, the bases in Africa are definitely the most dangerous.

According to information gathered by the Justice League, they are almost certain that Savage's activities are most intensive in Africa, and the military forces in those hidden bases must not be underestimated.

But Martin had to take into account that most of the alliance members had not yet cut off ties with the United States, and South America was the backyard of the United States. Once a head-on conflict occurred, they could risk their lives to fight Savage, but it would be difficult for them to make up their minds to kill the Americans.

The worst part is that the US military will not show mercy just because of who the members of the Justice League are.

Therefore, Martin had to go to South America first to ensure that the situation here would not get out of control.

As for letting Bruce stay at the headquarters, the reason is very simple. Savage is not a person who only knows how to defend. If he seizes the opportunity, he will definitely attack the new city. At this time, Bruce needs to take command.

To this end, Martin did not even allow Clark to participate in the battle.

"Is there any problem with you working with Clark?"

Before leaving the command room, Martin deliberately asked Bruce in a low voice.

"Although Clark and I haven't seen each other for a long time, the tacit understanding between us is still there. If Savage really comes, I promise to keep his people here."

Bruce's eyes turned and scanned the entire place, observing everyone and reassuring Martin.

Martin nodded, left the war room, and came to the area used for teleportation.

The Justice League's teleportation technology is still being perfected, and can only determine the approximate area with an error of one kilometer, but for the league, most of whom are superhuman, this error is not fatal.

A distance of one kilometer is something that even a superhuman with only enhanced physical body can easily cross.

"We have locked down the locations of these bases, and so far we have not seen any signs of the targets escaping. However, due to the lack of reconnaissance means, we can only see the situation on the ground."

Oliver put on his Green Arrow suit and when he saw Martin, he handed him a tablet computer, which displayed the information he had just investigated.

Martin took a quick glance at the computer in his hand, got a general understanding of the situation, and then looked up.

All members of Team Arrow are present, except John Diggle. This bodyguard who is still involved with various US intelligence agencies is not very satisfied with Oliver's choice. The League's scrutiny of such people is stricter than that of ordinary people.

So, this bodyguard did not show up, and except for him, all members of Team Arrow were present.

In addition, there was a tall man wearing sci-fi style armor, his body swaying from side to side, holding an instrument in his hand, and he seemed to be testing something.

Noticing Martin's gaze, the man immediately stopped testing, extended his hand to Martin, and introduced himself: "Nice to meet you, Mr. Martin! I'm Raymond Palmer, you can call me Ray. Since joining the alliance, I've often heard your name. It's a great honor to meet you today..."

Martin smiled and shook hands with the man, recalling his identity in his mind.

Raymond Palmer, codenamed Atom, is a professor in the Department of Physics at Star City University, specializing in solutions to various world problems such as famine and overpopulation.

By accident, he discovered a compression matrix through studying white dwarf fragments that could change the atomic structure of matter, shrink matter at will, and invent a device that could change his own weight.

Influenced by Green Arrow, he built a battle suit for himself and became a superhero who punishes evil and promotes good.

However, not long after his superhero career began, he encountered the Justice League, so he changed his mind and joined the Justice League following Green Arrow.

Normally, he works in the scientific research department, researching his own compression matrix, which greatly reduces the alliance's pressure on transportation.

This time, the Alliance raided Savage's base, but they did not have enough people to lead the troops, so they temporarily seconded these scattered superheroes.

In addition to him, there are some former American superheroes who have close ties with the United States. They also dare not face Martin directly, but there is admiration in their eyes.

In addition to them, there is a 300-man force, a mixed battalion of members of the Justice League's military department and the Amazon warriors of Paradise Island.

This mixed battalion, equipped with equipment capable of fighting on land, sea and in the air, had also undergone rigorous training. They were ready to set off and all sat there, silently waiting for the moment of departure.

"I need to get things done in South America quickly."

Martin told Oliver about his plan: "The base here in Africa is more dangerous, and I don't want to get too involved with the Americans. More importantly, I don't have much time, and I must solve these problems before my new identity appears."

"What do you want to do? Just give the order!"

Oliver did not compete with Martin for command. He had no such idea at all. Even if he did, it would be difficult to make this idea come true. Even if the Green Arrow team was willing to support him, the members of the Justice League and the Amazon warriors would not care about him.

"I will use the Mother Box to teleport you directly to the center of those bases. You must tear a hole in their defense system as quickly as possible. Then more soldiers will be teleported to your location."

Martin's plan was simple and crude, and generally it consisted of a sudden attack and the use of a large number of troops.

The only problem is that they don't know what the defense systems inside these bases are like, so the breakthrough must be quick. Once a stalemate occurs, the first group of people who rush in will face the siege of the base.

"So the key to this operation lies in the level of the commander of the first assault team."

Martin returned the computer to Oliver and said to him, "You and I will each lead a team to go ahead and find out the situation inside the building, and then let the other teams take action."

Modern large buildings are basically modular, and the arrangement logic of each area of a building is the same.

Especially for something like secret memory, no one would do any boring artistic creation on such industrial products. The combination of speed, efficiency and stability is the art that these buildings need most.

Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that someone like Savage might have a flash of inspiration and come up with something fancy.

That's why Martin asked Oliver to work with him to determine the routes inside the two bases, and then let others take action after comparing them.

"Oliver and I will each lead a unit. Who will lead the raid on the remaining three bases?"

Martin glanced at the people around him and did not assign anyone directly, but waited for them to volunteer.

But this news came too unexpectedly. None of these people expected that Martin would suddenly ask them to recommend themselves before the war.

So Martin didn't get a response, and everyone was hesitating, wondering what he meant by saying this.

"The reason why I didn't send Bruce and Clark out for this raid was to observe how much you young people can perform on the battlefield. If you don't say a word and expect Oliver and I to take charge of everything, it will be meaningless."

Martin nodded to Oliver, something Bruce had already said publicly to everyone.

But it was clear that these young men were so focused on thinking about the enemy's movements that they neglected to pay attention to themselves.

"Since no one is talking, I'll do it!"

Menalipu came out wearing a suit of armor from Paradise Island. She looked even more heroic than a man in her military uniform.

She performed the Paradise Island etiquette to Martin and said, "These soldiers were selected by me, and I am very familiar with them. If you don't mind, I can handle the remaining three bases by myself, and the others can do their own things." Menalipu grew up with Diana, and later became Hippolyta's guard and assistant.

Diana returned to Paradise Island and began to form her own army. Menalipu then came to Diana and joined the Justice League.

This Amazon warrior is a person who is both talented in literature and martial arts. Although she has never shown it on the surface, she feels in her heart that she is far inferior to the ordinary members of the Justice League.

They can't even control their own abilities, let alone other things.

"Hey, General of Paradise Island, don't be so arrogant. Just because we didn't say anything doesn't mean we don't have other ideas. It's just commanding an army. We are fully capable of doing it."

Menalipu's arrogant attitude undoubtedly angered the young people, especially Oliver's sister Thea Quinn.

This young lady of the Quinn family has become a fierce and lawless woman during the time when Oliver disappeared. Of course, she would not accept a stranger doing this in front of her.

"If you can be the commander of a squad, then so can I!"

"And I!"

Roy also raised his hand. He had no opinion on Menaliput, but was eager to prove himself.

"Yes, there is only one commander left for the last squad. Who else wants to volunteer?"

When Martin saw the tense scene, he was not nervous at all. Instead, he started laughing.

"Let me do it!"

Ray Palmer didn't want to see any discord among his people before they set off, so he raised his hand.

"Although I haven't learned how to command troops, I can shrink myself and use my size advantage to scout the routes to those bases."

"Well done!"

Martin snapped his fingers and said to Thea and Roy, "Check your equipment and don't throw away the artificial intelligence system you carry with you. Bruce and the people in the command room will always pay attention to your situation and provide you with support at critical moments."

"Thank you, Menalipu!"

Martin finally thanked the Amazon general, Diana's assistant and close friend, who had experienced a lot and would never be a person who would get angry with young people.

She did this, of course, to help Martin break the deadlock and stimulate the passion of these young people.

"Oliver, we're leaving."

After Martin chose the identity of commander, he waved the mother box and directly opened two sonic boom channels.

These sonic boom tunnels can lead directly to the inside of those bases, but it is not certain where the other end leads to in the base.

Behind each of them stood a troop of sixty men, with solemn expressions, ready for battle, and able to follow the commander's orders at any time.

"Pick one! I have to warn you in advance that I have no idea what's behind these doors!"

"Both doors are the same. Whatever is behind this door, they can't stop me."

Oliver waved the longbow that was specially made for him by the Research Department and made an OK gesture to Martin.

But they did not rush into the sonic boom channel. Instead, they released a small drone, which crawled into the sonic boom channel like a spider to observe the situation behind the door.

Behind both doors were the same, there was nothing special about them. It was just a corridor that no one passed by and there was a lot of dust around. It was obvious that these corridors were not often used.

"Interesting, I don't know whether we are lucky or unlucky!"

Oliver shook his head and said to Martin, "To be honest, I hope that behind the door is their core area. We only need to think about how to kill the enemy."

After that, Oliver waved to Martin, and then led his men into the sonic explosion passage, and the door closed immediately.

"follow me!"

Martin waved to the troops behind him, asking them to pass through the sonic boom channel quickly and silently.

The first person to enter the base took control of both ends of the corridor and, after confirming that there were no surveillance devices, he sent out a signal.

After receiving this signal, Martin commanded the rest of the people to enter the sonic boom channel.

The corridor was not long, and with sixty people walking in at once, the space became crowded, with almost no room to move around.

"There are a lot of people in this base, and they are very active!"

Martin closed his eyes and used the Force to sense the situation around him. He felt the life force of many people, but it was difficult to further sense the consciousness of these people.

Although he could do so, he did not want to further break through those people's consciousness.

"Work in pairs, spread out, and determine the structure of this base. Move carefully, and do everything you can to not reveal your whereabouts."

Martin waved his hand, and the sixty soldiers around him dispersed.

They worked in groups of two, one holding a gun and on guard, the other taking out a tablet-like device and starting to scan the surrounding situation.

This is a machine developed by the Alliance based on waves. It can penetrate thick concrete walls and see what is behind them.

The sixty people quickly dispersed and moved silently in the base.

Although Martin emphasized that he did not need any protection, the soldiers still left two groups to protect Martin.

"Your biggest task is to find out the situation of this base and pave the way for subsequent attacks."

Martin looked at the soldiers around him helplessly, wanting them to scout the surrounding situation.

The soldiers did not accept Martin's order and replied: "You must have at least three people around you to protect you. Although you do not need such protection, the protection regulations require us to do so."

"Well, now that you've brought out all the regulations, I can't say anything!"

Martin did not insist, and then said: "In this case, you come with me, we can't be idle."
