Chapter 863: Santa Prisca Island, Bane, and Venom Potion
"Santa Prisca."

Batman stood in front of a projection screen. The projection behind him showed a globe. As he spoke, the globe turned half a circle and then marked a red dot.

"It's a small island nation in the middle of Europe, and it's also a major producer of a dangerous illegal steroid."

Batman's eyes flickered, as if he remembered something.

"This drug can enhance the body functions of the recipient, turning an ordinary person without any training into a superhuman capable of lifting tons of weight."

As soon as Batman finished speaking, another picture of the character was posted.

The person in the photo is a sturdy adult male. He wears a black and white mask on his head and a wristband with three glass tubes on his arm. A transmission tube extends from the wristband and connects to the back of the sturdy man's head.

"This potion is called 'Venom' and is the source of the super criminal Bane's power. Therefore, the League speculates that Bane is the mastermind behind the Santa Prisca processing plant."

While Batman was explaining, everyone in the Young Justice League looked like good kids and listened attentively, even Wally, the most naughty and the one with the hardest time concentrating, was no exception.

"Just as the Alliance was trying to learn more about Santa Prisca's internal affairs, they discovered that there had been no new venom potions on the market for some time. The most recent batch circulating on the market was three months ago."

"At the same time, the Alliance discovered through infrared signals that the factory had not stopped operating, so the Alliance speculated that something had happened on the island recently."

Batman pressed the remote control, and a floor plan of the island appeared in front of everyone.

"The Justice League needs the Young Justice League to infiltrate Santa Prisca Island and find out what happened inside the processing plant. The mission is tentatively designated as a covert investigation, but the League allows you to modify the mission within a reasonable range."

"In other words, the league allows us to use force, right?" Jackson grasped the key point. This sentence proved that the league anticipated that they were likely to encounter danger.

"That's right." Batman nodded. "This mission may be more dangerous than the previous ones, and it's all because of this man."

Batman pointed at the picture of Bane and continued, "Bane, even among the super criminals I have fought, he is the most dangerous one. I was once seriously injured by him and had to temporarily give up my superhero identity."

Everyone was shocked when they heard this. Batman's mysterious image has been deeply rooted in people's hearts, and even made people forget that he is just an ordinary person.

Some people even complained that there were so many superhumans standing by, but everyone thought that this ordinary person should be the best fighter.

"Bane's strength isn't just due to his venom-injected body, but also to his brilliant mind. Even I could fall prey to his trap if I'm not careful."

Batman looked at everyone and said, "This mission is quite dangerous, so I'll be frank. Saving your life is the first priority. The mission is secondary."

Leng Lian said these caring words. Even Superman would be stunned by Batman's sudden attack, let alone these children. It was Happy who spoke first and led everyone to respond.

“Yes!”×N.

...

In the Caribbean, the Young Justice League is sitting on the Martian girl's bio-craft. The Martian bio-craft is a kind of bionic creation, but it imitates the Martians themselves.

The biological aircraft has most of the abilities of Martians, including invisibility, transformation, etc. in addition to the most basic flight, which makes her the best pretender for the Young Justice League.

There is a limit to the number of people that a biological aircraft can carry, but Megan said that even her small aircraft can carry about 20 people. The Young Justice League only has nine people, which is far from the maximum capacity.

Of course, there are not so many people on this mission. Although we can judge based on the situation, the nature of this mission at the beginning is still reconnaissance. If possible, it is best not to confront the enemy head-on.

As Batman watched, Robin, as captain, selected five people for this mission.

The first one is of course Robin as the captain. He is also the best stealth expert in the team and the most technically advanced person in the Young Justice League. The team needs him to invade the mainframe of the processing plant to obtain the data.

Then there is the Martian girl. Everyone needs her biological aircraft. This aircraft recognizes its owner and only Megan can fly it, not even other Martians.

And the Young Justice League also needs her telepathy. Robin is afraid that there is a communication jammer on the island, and the Martian girl can prevent them from becoming isolated after they split up.

Next is Kid Flash. The speedster who possesses super speed force is the best scout. After working together for a few times, Robin feels that he can't do without him.

Next is Aquaman. Santa Prisca is a small island country surrounded by the sea. If anything happens to everyone, Jackson can call for rescue from Atlantis in the sea, and thus call on the Justice League.

Then there's the Harpy. His inability to become invisible was simply a special feature designed for reconnaissance missions. Although the Martian girl can also become invisible, she is not like the Harpy, who was created for the purpose of being an assassin.

In Robin's opinion, Harpy should be the best infiltration person besides him, so as the second-in-command, he should be brought along.

Finally, there was a candidate, and Robin chose Wonder Girl after careful consideration.

This choice shocked Connor. He thought Robin would choose him, but he didn't expect that the other party would choose a newcomer.

Batman asked Robin the reason, and this is what the latter replied.

"Santa Prisca is a tropical island nation covered in trees. As an Amazon, Wonder Girl is very familiar with how to fight here. If we have to choose to fight an opponent, Wonder Girl can direct us on how to fight."

"Also, the powerful strength of a demigod is also a reason for choosing her. Choosing the magical girl can satisfy both of the above requirements at once. That's why I chose her."

Robin's words made sense, but that didn't mean Connor would accept it. He was used to fighting with everyone. In his eyes, they were not only friends, but also comrades who had been through thick and thin together.

But now his comrades actually chose a newcomer instead of him, which Connor could not accept. Superboy, who still had some flaws in his heart but had grown a lot, did not get angry on the spot, but chose to leave early.

"Connor!" Robin reached out to stop him. He thought Connor might be uncomfortable, but for the mission, he had to make the best choice. He thought Connor would understand, but he didn't expect...
