Chapter 1037 The World of Adults and Children
Shazam disappeared from the communication channel after chanting the incantation, and Batman didn't give the others much time to think before issuing the order.

"Justice League members, please go and check in your respective areas to see if there has really been a mass disappearance of children."

Although some people still had doubts and others had guessed what had happened, the situation was urgent and there was no extra time for them to investigate the matter.

So all the superheroes hung up the communication and went to work on the missions they had just taken on.

Not long after, about ten minutes later, the superheroes reconnected and reported the information they had received to Batman and his colleagues.

Sure enough, a large-scale disappearance of children did occur. All children under the age of eighteen disappeared suddenly, without any warning or clue.

This has caused all the superheroes to worry, since they haven't found a single clue and they have to reassure ordinary people with their own promises, which makes the heroes feel uneasy.

Fortunately, they're not completely without clues; Shazam is still one of the leads they haven't found.

A few minutes later, Shazam, carrying the weight of everyone's expectations, finally reappeared on the communication channel.

"Wow, I'm really back!" Shazam appeared on the communication channel with a shocked look on his face. After seeing the serious faces of the others on the channel, he coughed a few times and restrained his childish nature.

“Listen, guys, after I chanted the spell, I went to another world. It’s the opposite of this place; there are only children and no adults.”

“It sounds like something magic could do,” Zatara asserted. “It must be that someone used powerful magic to split the world into two, like what we often call parallel universes.”

"Can you find the spellcaster's location?" Batman pressed.

“Not sure,” Zatara shook his head. “Not sure if the enemy is interfering, but I can try.”

"Assemble at the watchtower," Batman continued. "The rest of you, guard your assigned areas. We're not sure what the enemy's plans are yet, so be careful."

"We also need to be careful of the protesting civilians." As he spoke, Steelbone pulled up a video. The main characters in the video were ordinary people gathered together. The loss of their children had panicked these adults, leaving them with no choice but to resort to the worst method of causing trouble to beg for something to be done for their children.

"This group's destination is the Star Labs; they want to force the scientists there to bring their children back."

“They’re just a bunch of pathetic people who’ve lost their minds because their child went missing.” Superman’s eyes showed pity. “They need someone to comfort them.”

“Just leave it to the regular police,” Batman said. “The Justice League can’t easily take action against ordinary people. Just have one or two people keep an eye on things to prevent any trouble.”

Batman thought for a moment and said again, "Send one or two more people to the Star Labs site, just in case anyone tries to take advantage of the situation."

“I’ll go,” the guard suddenly said. “I have no way to deal with magical matters, so it’s better to deal with any unexpected situations that may arise.”

Batman didn't refuse. The Guardians didn't have superpowers, and their combat strength was neither high nor low. Rather than working for nothing, it would be better to watch the ordinary people so that those with strong combat abilities could free up their hands.

Moreover, the Guardians have always done a job similar to guarding. He was the guard at the Cadmus Research Institute before, but according to the Alliance's subsequent investigation, he was mind-controlled as soon as he was transferred there.

After the destruction of the Cadmus Institute, the Guardian had taken a break due to brain damage and had only recently returned to work. This mission was indeed suitable for his rehabilitation. After volunteering, the Guardian hung up the phone, clearly to attend to matters on-site. Batman then turned his attention to Shazam.

“Shazam, you are now a bridge between the two worlds. I need you to go to the world of children, find the Young Justice League, tell them what happened, and prepare them to fight the enemy.”

“The two worlds should be completely identical except for the adults and children, so you should also be able to use the Justice League’s communications there, which will allow you to contact them.”

"I understand." Shazam waved his hand. "I'll get back to work now, everyone, Shazam!"

With a clap of thunder, Shazam went offline once again.

"Batman, I want to try to enter the world of children." Yang Le's sudden statement stunned everyone, especially Zatara.

"Really, Yang Le? You have a way to enter the children's world? Can you take me in?"

Zatala is nearly fifty years old and only has one daughter, Zatana. He usually cherishes her dearly, but he had to be composed just now because he wanted to save his daughter.

Now that he heard there was a way to go to that world and see his daughter directly, he naturally couldn't hold back anymore.

"My method may not be successful, and it should only work on me."

Zatala remained silent for a while after hearing Yang Le's words, before speaking again.

"I'm sorry, I was a little too hasty. So if you succeed, please take good care of Zatanna for me."

"I will." After saying that, Yang Le hung up the call.

Yang Le didn't need to worry about the Justice League, which was why he had been trying to find a way to enter another universe.

According to Shazam, also known as Billy Batson, this magic that separates worlds should be indefinitely effective, just like the perpetual magic in Yu-Gi-Oh!. As long as it is not destroyed or the game ends, the magic will remain in effect.

In other words, even if you were an adult a second ago, as soon as you become a child, the magic will directly pull you into another world.

So now the solution has emerged: Yang Le just needs to become a child. The example is still Billy Batson. Even if your mental age is not an adult, as long as your physical age is a child, you will be magically judged as a child and thus pulled into another world.

In the past, it would have been quite difficult for Yang Le to become a child. The simplest way he could think of was to become Little Bobo, create a clone, and then have one of the clones become the Clock King to turn back time and become a child.

However, this method can cause one's mental age to revert to that of a child, so it's not perfect.

However, Yang Le now has a perfect solution. Because of the Dust Fairy, Yang Le is now connected with 'Dream', which has given him the ability to influence reality to a certain extent.
