The Comprehensive Evolution of American Comics.

Chapter 931 Before the Mission

"Compared to me, he naturally still has some gaps."

Oliver shrugged and said, "He still has a lot to learn."

"I hope you didn't teach me those romantic tricks from earlier years."

Black Canary glared at Oliver, who didn't dare to respond this time and instead changed the subject to the mission.

"The Assassin's League is located on the Arabian Peninsula. The demon leader, Lei Xiaogu, established the Assassin's League base on the source of his power—the Lazarus Pool."

"The base is heavily guarded. An ordinary person entering would be practically dead. Besides having to deal with all sorts of traps, the assassins trained within the Assassin's League are also not to be underestimated."

Oliver took out a remote control from somewhere and clicked a button. The projected map disappeared and was replaced by a three-dimensional image.

The protagonist in the video is Oliver himself dressed as Green Arrow, and three or four masked men in black. Not only are their uniforms exactly the same, but even the equipment they wear is the same.

"This is a video of me fighting a killer from the League of Assassins," Green Arrow explained.

"It's not hard to tell from the video that every one of them is a skilled player. That's not the most difficult part. The most difficult part is that this group of people work together seamlessly and can coordinate well without even talking."

The video that Oliver played had sound, and from time to time there was the sound of metal clashing, but the four assassins in the entire video did not say a word from beginning to end.

Finally, Green Arrow used the delay mechanism set up in advance to shoot an arrow to break the cooperation of the four assassins. The assassin only screamed when the sharp arrow pierced his flesh.

After the balance was broken, Green Arrow finally won, but it was not difficult to see from his embarrassed appearance that his victory was not easy.

After the video finished playing, Oliver continued, "The video ends here. It's easy to see from the video how formidable it is to deal with just four killers, let alone the base camp where all the killers gather."

"So this mission is mainly about collecting evidence. We must avoid fighting as much as possible. If it's really impossible, retreat early. Your own safety is the top priority."

Green Arrow is the captain of this operation. Yang Le naturally agreed with his arrangements, and Black Canary had no objection.

Now that the course of action has been decided, the next step is to determine the personnel arrangements for the action.

"There are three of us in our team, and stealth missions always require as few people as possible. I envision one person responsible for infiltration, one responsible for supporting the infiltrators, and the last one responsible for guarding the aircraft to facilitate our evacuation."

"Black Canary's abilities make too much noise, making her unsuitable for infiltration operations where unexpected situations might occur." Oliver glanced at his girlfriend, who just gave him a cold look.

"So I plan to let her stay behind on the aircraft while the two of us select the infiltration and support personnel."

Green Arrow paused for a moment and was about to speak up to take over the most dangerous infiltration mission. After all, he was the main person in charge of this mission, and Yang Le was just a helper he pulled in. There was no reason to let the other party face the most dangerous place directly.

But he didn't expect that Yang Le was even faster than him.

"Then leave the infiltration mission to me," Yang Le patted his chest. "I know your archery skills, and there's no better support than you."

"But..." "No buts," Yang Le interrupted Oliver. "Support isn't for me. The thought of lying down for hours without moving makes me uncomfortable."

"Okay then." After hearing what Yang Le said, Oliver no longer insisted and just said with a smile.

"When we get back, I'll treat you to a nice meal. There are a lot of good restaurants in Star City."

Before Yang Le could respond, Black Canary spoke first, hugging Oliver's arm and blaming him.

"You should invite two people Oliver, have you forgotten Diana?"

Oliver suddenly realized and said, "It's my fault, but luckily I have you by my side to help me correct my mistake."

After saying that, the two of them huddled together intimately, even ignoring Yang Le in front of them, until the latter coughed twice before letting go of each other.

"Alright, model couple." Yang Le pointed at Oliver's clothes. "Hurry up and change into your uniform. We should be leaving."

...

The Justice League meeting lasted almost the entire morning, plus the time it took Green Arrow to send the email and Yang Le to rush to Star City. The sun was setting at this time, and I believe it won't be long before the moon rises high in the sky.

In any case, the pitch-black night is more suitable for stealth than the bright day, so night is the best time to carry out the mission.

Speed ​​is of the essence in war, so Yang Le and the other two did not waste any time. After the Green Arrow and his wife were dressed, they set off for the Arabian Peninsula.

The headquarters of the Assassin's League is different in different universes. For example, in Nolan's trilogy, the headquarters of the Assassin's League is located in Nandabart, but in the comics, this place has nothing to do with the assassins.

In the comics, the headquarters of the League of Assassins is often depicted near the Arabian Peninsula, as the Lazarus Pool was originally located there.

In this universe, the headquarters of the League of Assassins appears to be an Arabian-style castle on the surface. Although it covers a large area, according to Green Arrow, the contents underground of the castle are far richer than those above ground.

Yang Le said that this is indeed the world of American comics. If there is really a lot of space under the castle as Green Arrow said, then it is a miracle that the castle has not collapsed after so many years.

The headquarters of the Assassin's League is located in the Rub' al Khali Desert. In this terrain covered with yellow sand, anyone approaching can be spotted at a glance by the alert assassins.

This can also be considered as a kind of utilization of the terrain. Therefore, Yang Le and others cannot get too close in the aircraft. They can only stop at a very far distance and then move forward on foot.

When the aircraft slowly landed, Green Arrow and Yang Le jumped off the aircraft except for Black Canary who stayed behind.

Black Canary waited until the two landed before she drove the aircraft away. In order to be able to quickly pick up the two, she couldn't keep the aircraft here. According to the plan, Black Canary needed to fly the aircraft high in the sky above the Assassin's League base and wait.

"Let's go." Green Arrow also changed his clothes at this time. He was no longer wearing green clothes, but a uniform that was similar in color to the desert.

Maybe he should be called Yellow Arrow now?
