What's wrong with Superman's brother wanting to be Homelander?

Chapter 112 And you will personally ignite the flames of war.

She had seen the photos.

Although the figure's appearance is blurry, the features are still easy to identify, especially the pair of huge wings that look like a soaring eagle, which are particularly eye-catching.

Hawkman's lips twitched slightly, and the words he was about to say stuck in his throat. After a few seconds, he immediately changed the subject: "You just said Pat was arrested, who?!"

Courtney opened her mouth, then swallowed back the words that were about to come out, as if she had thought of something.

Back then, the entire JSA was wiped out when facing the Injustice Society, and Lucas was considered by Pat to be an even more powerful enemy.

She has learned her lesson.

But Hawkman didn't, Courtney worried that he would anger Lucas.

Judging from Hawkman's tone of voice, it's easy to tell that the other person must be someone with a very explosive temper.

Seeing Courtney's reaction, Hawkman frowned: "Were you lying about what you just said?"

His voice immediately turned serious.

"No, I'm just worried about your strength. That person is too powerful!"

Courtney clenched her fists and waved them at the air.

"We faced the enemy's relentless bombing and stood the last in the flames of war. If you want to save Pat, the most important thing is that fear will only bind your feet. What can truly protect everything is a brave heart," Hawkman said.

As he spoke, he glanced at Courtney and the others' attire and added, "When courage becomes your fourth weapon, perhaps you can truly become heroes."

Inside the cabin, Diana looked out the porthole, her gaze lingering briefly on Courtney and the others before she rubbed her temples.

"Honey, you don't look too well. Are you feeling unwell?"

Hawkgirl walked over and looked at Wonder Woman with some concern.

"no."

Diana smiled and shook her head.

She is in good health, but she has been having the same dream for the past few days.

A colossal mountain stands in an unknown dimension, shrouded in billowing clouds and lightning.

As if drawn by some unseen force, she stepped onto those mountains, one by one.

The wooden floor beneath your feet is no longer replaced by polished cloud-patterned marble, stretching to the horizon.

A tall and majestic figure leaned against the throne at the very top.

His face was obscured, and he was draped in an elaborate divine robe. He simply sat there, and the surrounding light involuntarily lowered towards him, while all the floating clouds obediently swirled around the throne.

"You have quelled the endless war instigated by Ares; the power of the Amazons and the faith of mortals are all yours."

The man's voice, though not angry, carried an air of authority: "But the shackles of mortal guardianship bind you. Remaining in the mortal realm, you will forever be relegated to the role of mediator."

"Marry me and become the queen of the gods who rule Olympus."

"At that time, on Mount Olympus, all the gods will bow down to you, and you will gain eternal life, wield the power behind all the gods, and rule thunder with me."

Despite being somewhat surprised by the scene in her dream, Diana firmly rejected the other party on the spot.

Then, she will wake up from her dream.

If it only happens once or twice, that's fine.

But during this time, whenever she closed her eyes, that image would appear.

The man became increasingly forceful, which bothered her greatly and made her vaguely worried.

With this in mind, Diana decided to take some time to return to Paradise Island and ask her mother, Queen Hippolyta.

She was a gentle, kind, brave, strong, beautiful, and generous lady.

Her intuition told her that her mother might know something.

The man shrouded in thunder and auspicious clouds gave her a sense of déjà vu.

However, the other party's arrogant and condescending attitude made her instinctively feel disgusted.

But right now, the most urgent task is to quickly reclaim Hawkman's Ninth Metal.

Although, with Ares being resealed, she has not intervened in external disputes for a long time, only transforming into Wonder Woman to help old ladies crossing the street, owners of lost items, and children who have fallen into the water, etc.

But when she met Amanda this time, he still managed to persuade her with his damn charm.

A non-human being possesses power capable of easily defeating Hawkman, Hawkgirl, and a deity of mysterious dimensional origin, yet the official information provides absolutely nothing about it.

In short, the other party couldn't have stolen so many remarkable sacred objects just for fun.

Even if we assume the other person simply has a quirky hobby of collecting things, no one dares to take the gamble.

After all, in order to collect the Lhasa Road Pool, the other party made it difficult even for the Heavenly Eye Society to infiltrate, and even the Assassin Alliance, which had existed for nearly a thousand years, was expelled by Xi Jinping. Moreover, according to the photos taken at the scene, the scene was a bloodbath.

Such behavior is definitely not in line with heroism.

However, what ultimately changed Wonder Woman's mind was that pitch-black door.

It was both sacred and ominous, filled with an indescribable and ineffable aura.

She had never felt so out of place before.

This complex feeling made her want to find out what was behind that black door.

The sound of high heels clicking away came from the side of the cabin.

Hawkgirl walked over to Hawkman and gave Yolanda a strange look.

She naturally knew Ted the wildcat as well.

He was a strong and muscular man, proficient in various forms of boxing and combat techniques.

Before joining the Justice Society, he was a world-class heavyweight boxing champion, undefeated at least until he was betrayed by his manager.

However, Alan Scott's approach was not very reliable, as he inspired Ted to wear a feline-themed bodysuit, the kind with goggles and pointed ears, which looked incredibly awful.

And now, unexpectedly, the enemy's combat uniform fits the girl so well.

In addition, she has to say that Alan is really unreliable.

"So, you guys are planning to rescue Pat?"

Hawkgirl walked over to Hawkman, looked at Courtney, and said softly.

"Yes." Courtney nodded, her expression sad. "It's all my fault. If it weren't for me, Pat wouldn't have been arrested."

Walk."

Just as Hawkman was about to speak, he suddenly looked up at a certain point in the sky.

With a whooshing sound, a dazzling golden light flashed across the sky.

Hawkman wasn't the only one to notice the anomaly in the sky.

The others, including Courtney and a few others, also looked up at the sky.

next moment.

As the golden light faded, Doctor Fate's tall figure slowly appeared in mid-air.

His entire body was completely enveloped in armor that radiated golden light, making him look incredibly holy.

The gilded helmet, reflecting the sunlight, revealed two narrow slits for eyes, exuding an air of vicissitude.

Human beings, with their frail bodies, bear the authority of Naboo, and even if it is only a tiny part of it, their flesh and will will be continuously eroded.

Doctor Fate descended from the sky and slowly walked up to Hawkman.

"If you're just here to stop me, you don't need to."

Hawkman looked at Doctor Fate, seemingly already guessing what he was going to say, and reminded him, "This isn't just my opinion."

"I trust your judgment, and even more so your insight into fate. But as you said, fate is not always immutable."

Hawkman stared at Doctor Fate, his eyes twitching slightly: "Kent, tell me, who is that person? Where is he?"

Even if you don't tell us, we'll find it sooner or later.

"I'll tell you, but before that, I need to confirm some things, some very important things, so, sorry Carter."

Beneath the helmet of destiny, icy blue pupils shimmered with a faint golden light.

Unusually, Doctor Fate didn't continue to dissuade Hawkman, but instead said something that left Hawkman completely baffled.

But before Hawkman could speak, Doctor Fate suddenly raised his right hand, which was covered in gold armor.

A swift and intricate rune of the Eye of Anubis was drawn in the void.

There were no incantations or violent energy fluctuations.

There was only a low hum, as if it came from the depths of an ancient temple.

The next moment, golden light spread outward like ripples on water, instantly transforming into a semi-transparent golden dome that enveloped Hawkman, Courtney, and everyone else who was trying to move around.

Inside the dome, time did not stop, but it was as if it had been infused with invisible amber, the air became thick as honey, and everyone's movements were slowly frozen in time.

Wonder Woman is an exception, or rather, she was the least affected.

Diana's expression was strange. Just as she was about to draw her divine sword, Doctor Fate's voice immediately appeared in her mind: "Diana, no, I have glimpsed more variables and need to verify them myself. Please keep everything as it is until I return. Thank you."

It was less of a request and more of a plea.

Wonder Woman hesitated for a moment, then silently nodded.

Doctor Fate then transformed into a streak of golden light and rushed toward the farm warehouse outside Smallwell.

Only one old floor lamp was lit on the second floor of the warehouse.

A warm yellow halo illuminated a corner.

Lucas leaned back in his leather chair, holding a well-worn copy of Nietzsche's "Beyond Good and Evil."

Once Doctor Fate had stood before the table, Lucas calmly closed his book, his gaze sweeping over Doctor Fate with unwavering composure.

Dr. Yun.

His expression was calm, and he seemed unsurprised by the other person's arrival.

"Mr. Nelson, if there were someone who could see all the destruction and suffering in the world, see everyone's past and countless future paths, who could foresee the deaths of their loved ones and comrades—but could do nothing about it, and could only watch helplessly as tragedy unfolded—"

Then I would like to ask, is seeing through the inevitable tragedy destined for everyone a blessing from the gods, or a cruel punishment of eternal imprisonment?

"By the way, did you anticipate that I would ask this question?"

Doctor Fate stood quietly in place.

The eyes behind the narrow slits of the gilded helmet revealed an inscrutable expression.

Strictly speaking, he hadn't anticipated that Lucas would ask such a question right away.

The ability to glimpse the future and destiny granted by the Naboo Helmet was never under his control; Kent Nelson could only passively accept this gift from beginning to end.

After a long silence, he took off his helmet and said slowly, "Grace and torture are two sides of the same coin, just like day and night. There is no such thing as pure grace or pure torture."

The blessing is that I can foresee disasters and have the opportunity to warn all living beings.

Torture is the way I clearly see to break the deadlock in every tragedy, but I cannot arbitrarily touch fate.

I can see the whole process of a flower withering, but I cannot reach out to shield it from the frost.

From beginning to end, I was merely an observer of fate, not the player who rewrote the game.

The Fate Doctor shook his head: "Magic allows me to glimpse the fate of people. I look out the window to the future and witness countless possibilities."

But in the end, everything became too heavy; I'd seen too much of it.

"Including Inza?" Lucas put down his book and got up from his leather chair.

Inza is the wife of Doctor Fate and also a witch.

However, Naboo does not approve of human love and sees this bond as a "weakness that interferes with the judgment of order."

Inza was invaded by the chaotic will, and ultimately, the constant mental torment and endless separation overwhelmed him.

Unable to endure the torment of eternal life, Inza chose to commit suicide.

Ignoring Doctor Fate's astonished look, Lucas continued, "Tell me why you've come to me. I don't think it's because of the Ninth Metal on Hawkman. You should know I could have easily killed them, but in the end, I let them go."

"Yes. I understand that perfectly." Doctor Fate nodded silently, staring at Lucas. The next moment, he suddenly pointed at the air.

The golden energy instantly transformed into a surging river, with countless tributaries disappearing into the void at its end.

"This is a habitable planet orbiting Polaris."

Tana's home planet.

It is 70 light-years away from Earth.

The entire planet is covered with native veins of the Ninth Metal, making it one of the few native planets of the Ninth Metal in the entire universe.

Lucas looked in the direction of Doctor Fate's voice.

Compared to Earth's azure blue, it was a vast planet entirely pale blue, with azure seas enveloping bronze-colored land, and when light shone on it, it would shimmer with flowing pale gold light.

The peaceful scene instantly changed in the next second.

A massive, densely packed fleet tore through the atmosphere of Tannaga, countless giant warships blotted out the entire sky, and the blazing fire turned the planet's surface into a crimson inferno.

Thousands upon thousands of mechanical warriors, steel giants hundreds of meters tall, and ferocious pythons—all were illuminated by green, red, and black light.

A cloud of light enveloped everything, like countless doomsday missiles crashing down on the bronze-colored earth.

Countless Tannaga warriors, their wings flapping, rushed to the defensive line, only to be instantly crushed into dust by the thunderous roar of the steel giant's stomp.

Corpses kept falling from the sky, blood flowed like rivers, and there was no way to stop this one-sided massacre.

The floating city of Utopia, reserved for the nobility, was razed to the ground by artillery fire, its former prosperity reduced to ashes.

Further away, the Green Lantern Legion, which had arrived, was crushed by three powerful beings.

The illusion vanished in an instant.

Doctor Fate's voice carried a heavy sorrow: "This is the future I have glimpsed, Tannaga, the primordial home of the Ninth Metal. And you, driven by your own selfish desires, will ignite this war with your own hands, and wreak havoc across the entire Arctic system—"

"The reason you stole Hawkman's spaceship is because you were already prepared."

Lucas stared blankly at Doctor Fate: "Attributing disaster and destruction to individuals, is this fate?"

"I have no intention of starting a war. As long as they hand over what I need, everything will be fine."

Doctor Fate paused for two seconds: "Fate doesn't distinguish between good and bad people, but compared to justified revenge, fate never condones indiscriminate killing!"
