David raised an eyebrow at the corner of his mouth while seated.
These are clearly referring to him.
Clark, standing next to him, agreed somewhat awkwardly. Although David's contributions and abilities were undeniable, he had hardly ever participated in any daily crime-fighting activities or even attended any meetings since the alliance's inception. His absences were the norm.
“We can’t always rely on the Beyonder when there’s a problem we can’t solve. Being a firefighter isn’t easy, and that’s not fair to him,” Batman continued in a deep voice.
"And what if we put all our hopes on one person, and we don't have a chance to contact him, or he gets delayed because of something else?"
He looked around at everyone present.
Apart from David, everyone else fell silent, deep in thought. This was indeed a problem that could not be ignored.
If no one comes to their aid, they will be left to die. Waiting for rescue in times of crisis is not a good habit, and this mentality will be fatal to both them and those in disasters in the long run.
Diana calmly wiped the sword of Vulcan.
While she was still on Paradise Island, her mother told her about the outside world, how weak humans needed the protection of the gods, but she only realized how vast the outside world was after she left the island.
Sometimes, the threats that humanity faces are difficult even for the gods to deal with.
"I cannot guarantee that I will arrive in time every time to save every member of the alliance, or every person in the disaster."
David shrugged and agreed with the idea of expanding the membership.
With the Justice League being more powerful, there would be fewer global crises requiring his intervention, so he would be happy to have an easier time and would certainly agree.
"So, the standards for recruiting members this time need to be as high as possible?"
"The Flash asked."
"That's one point, and also their personalities."
The steel frame has an opening.
"During this time, I searched online for information about all the superheroes who submitted applications to us."
My investigation deliberately avoided revealing their real identities.
He waved his hand, projecting more than a dozen figures.
“We can jointly screen people to join the alliance based on their past words and deeds.”
The projection resembles an employee ID card, accompanied by each hero's portrait, abilities, and past words and deeds.
"Black Canary, Blue Devil, Elementalist, Firestorm, Black Thunder, Vixen, Hawkgirl..."
David's gaze swept across the group, spotting some familiar characters, but one person caught his attention—Hawkgirl.
He remembered that this person was an alien from Senagon, or more accurately, an agent sent to Earth by Senagon, but the information Cyborg provided indicated that he was a human.
"This blue devil... is he really alright?"
The Flash pointed at one of them, looking somewhat nervous.
Among the group, one stood out: blue skin, sharp horns on his head, and scarlet eyes, just like his nickname, making him look like a frightening demon.
Having just dealt with several ancient demons, they've now encountered another demon.
"Dan Patrick Cassidy is a devout Catholic and a stuntman. During an outdoor shoot, he accidentally released a demon. The demon's power merged with his stunt suit, granting him superpowers."
Cyborg read out Blue Devil's information, reassuring the Flash that despite Blue Devil's appearance, he was a devout Catholic.
"A devout believer? That reminds me of two people from the past."
Arthur frowned.
The group exchanged glances, knowing who he was referring to: 'Redemption' and Hytova, the two madmen who once tried to brainwash the world. If they weren't the Transcendent, the whole world might be full of devout Catholics by now.
"Okay, let's look at the others."
The two points about this person, whether it was demonic power or devotion to God, made everyone's nerves a little sensitive. Steelbone saw what everyone was thinking and said.
"I noticed there are quite a few women here?"
Hal Jordan stroked his chin.
"However, speaking of which, our alliance should recruit more women to achieve gender balance."
After saying that, he raised an eyebrow in a sly way.
"By the way, the league shouldn't have any rules against teammates dating, right?"
There was only one woman in the alliance, Diana. She was heroic and beautiful, but her extraordinary abilities, her age of several thousand years, and her status as the daughter of the Heavenly Father made people hesitant to approach her.
"Uh, no."
Steelbone was momentarily speechless at this absurd question.
"Black Canary, Black Thunderbolt, and Vixen, these guys are a bit weak."
David pointed with his finger and began to speak.
Speaking of which, all of these people have joined the Justice League in the storyline. In fact, there are quite a few people who have joined the superhero Justice League, but only seven or eight of them are permanent members.
Upon hearing him speak, everyone's eyes scanned intently over the information of the people he mentioned.
Black Canary, a natural-born superhuman, possesses the ability to emit sound waves from its mouth. Black Thunderbolt has superpower genes, which can be activated to generate black electricity.
Finally, there is the female fox who possesses the Tantalum Necklace, a family heirloom bestowed upon her ancestors by the African spider god Ansari. Touching the necklace grants her the abilities of any animal.
"The alliance is not based on strength, but the dangers it faces are indeed extraordinary. It would be very dangerous to involve people who are not capable enough."
Batman agreed.
When the others heard these words coming from Batman, their expressions turned somewhat strange, while David chuckled slightly.
Chapter 174 The Universe's Number One Bounty Hunter
A slight smile appeared on David's lips.
The real world is different from the comics. In the comics, Batman, with his human-limited physical body, can fight and fight against supervillains with world-destroying power, and even exchange a few blows with Darkseid, dodging the sure-fire Omega rays with a simple roll.
In the real world, if Batman didn't have any other help, he would only be able to use a stolen laser gun to clear out some of the grunts when facing an Apokolips invasion.
"Now, Batman only relies on his honed body and weapons when solving crimes within Gotham. At other times, when facing powerful enemies, he deploys the Fenrir armor."
With the Fenrir armor acquired through his wealth, Batman possesses top-tier combat power within the League, and he is indeed qualified to say this.
The three people David pointed out were all quite capable, even among street heroes, but they were not up to the task when faced with a global crisis.
"To avoid trouble, and also for their own good, it's best not to let them join the alliance." A glint flashed in his eyes.
Because of the changes they initiated, the alliance was established earlier and faced a ferocious and powerful enemy sooner; members could lose their lives if they were not careful.
After much deliberation, only three people remained to be decided.
"Firestorm, Elementalist, Hawkgirl."
Just as the Alliance members were about to discuss and screen further—whether to eliminate one or two more, or to let all three superheroes with abilities powerful enough to attract everyone's attention—Cyborg's expression suddenly changed, and he looked towards the sky.
"Unidentified object has entered Earth's orbit!"
As a god in the online world, his brain can handle many things at the same time, and he has established a disaster early warning mechanism on the global network.
Just now, a satellite in near-Earth orbit captured an image of an unidentified object that appeared out of nowhere and entered the atmosphere in the blink of an eye.
"It reached the speed of light in the vacuum of space, but after entering the atmosphere, its speed decreased to two hundred and sixty times the speed of sound due to air resistance."
The calculated flight path indicates it will arrive at Metropolis in seconds.
The group was immediately taken aback. Whether it was superpowers or space travel technology, reaching the speed of light was something that ordinary people could not possess.
"Could it be Brainiac?"
The Flash's voice sounded tense.
When people think of threats from space, the first thing that comes to mind is that terrifying alien who once put Metropolis in a bottle, and who said he would come back when he left.
"No, it's not."
A few seconds later, while the group was talking, the unidentified object arrived.
Wolf rode his space motorcycle, executing a beautiful fiery drift, and stopped above the metropolis. He leisurely took off his sunglasses and looked around, looking more like someone who had come to a bar for a drink than a mercenary on a mission.
The steel skeleton projects the images captured by cameras in the city.
"A rock star?"
Hal Jordan looked surprised.
If this guy wasn't riding a motorcycle that was suspended in mid-air, and ignoring his strange skin color and eyes, he would have thought he was a violent motorcycle gang member who likes rock music and could be seen anywhere on the street.
He didn't seem to have any hostility.
Perhaps it's a friendly alien?
The Flash observed Wolf's expression, not discerning much brutality or ferocity, and whispered.
"Rampaging Wolf!"
David's expression changed slightly as he recognized the alien visiting Metropolis at a glance.
With her striking skin tone and unique style of dress, it's hard not to recognize her.
