"Some unknown people have infiltrated the battlefield, and The Flash is also missing. Have you found anything?" Green Arrow asked.
“The other me is tracking those people, while I stay here to draw the attention of the hidden enemies,” Batman continued. “As for the Flash, he should already be captured.”
"What? Where are you?" Green Arrow asked immediately.
“You don’t need to worry about that. I think Bruce Wayne should be able to find the Flash and rescue him.” Batman paused after saying that, and then said, “And I just discovered that the little girl who was with Miss Athena seems to have been kidnapped by them as well.”
"You mean that terrifying little guy was also captured? Is the enemy really that powerful?" Green Arrow asked in shock.
“I think she did it on purpose. When she used magic before, no one was there. Maybe they didn’t investigate her and they didn’t even know she existed.” Batman’s voice sounded a little strange, as if he was feeling quite pleased.
"Does Miss Athena know about this?" Green Arrow seemed to be talking to himself, but also seemed to be asking Batman.
"You probably already know the situation, so don't worry for now. Leave things here to us, and you guys focus on dealing with the sea creatures." A sound of fighting came from Batman's side, followed by Batman's unchanging voice.
"Alright, I got it. Be careful." Green Arrow knew he couldn't bother Batman any longer; a single mishap in the fight could be fatal, so he immediately hung up.
Green Arrow told Green Lantern about the situation and said, "It seems you don't need to worry. With Miss Athena and Bruce Wayne around, the Flash will be fine."
"I hope so. Alright, we've rested enough. It's time for battle." Green Lantern stood up and asked Green Arrow, "Do you have enough arrows?"
“I asked Miss Athena for some before, and I must say magic is really convenient.” Green Arrow patted his quiver and said, “She even helped enchant each arrow, so I can test their power.”
The battle continued, but with the addition of the Amazon warriors, the tide of battle gradually turned in favor of the Justice League. Seeing this, Orm, the leader of the sea creatures, immediately used his power to control the rising sea levels, preparing to wipe out all the rebels in one fell swoop.
At this crucial moment, Adam finally returned to the battlefield from Antarctica with Superman, and decisively decided the outcome of the entire battle. A cold front froze the surging seawater, then with brute force, he lifted the massive, wave-shaped iceberg and hurled it directly towards the sea creatures' rear. With a deafening roar, the sea creatures' battle command center was destroyed, and Adam completely cut off their reinforcements.
Adam arrived above the two sides engaged in battle and said calmly, "Enough! Stop."
Everyone looked up and saw Superman being carried by Adam, seemingly unconscious. Clearly, Superman had been defeated. The plans of the sea creatures and their nobles, who had previously been too afraid to come ashore because of Superman, to seize control of humanity during the Justice League's civil war, had thus been thwarted.
Of course, not everyone thought the same way, especially Orm, who had just become king. He didn't want his prestige to be affected by Adam's existence, so he immediately jumped out and said he wanted to challenge Adam.
"You want to challenge me?" Adam asked calmly, narrowing his eyes.
“That’s right, I am the king of the entire sea right now, and I cannot stop this war just because of your words,” Om sneered.
“Since that’s the case,” Adam said, disappearing into thin air and reappearing behind Om in the next instant, “should I give you this chance?”
"No, impossible." Orm was clearly taken aback by Superman's speed and looked utterly incredulous.
Adam reached out and patted Orm on the shoulder, saying, "Nothing is impossible. You're just unlucky to have met with my power spike, Wonder Woman!"
Adam called out to one side.
"What is it?" Wonder Woman asked as she walked over.
"Where is your Rope of Truth? Let all the sea creature soldiers hear how their king died," Adam said with a slight smile.
Wonder Woman's eyes lit up. That's right, Aquaman had said before that Orm had taken advantage of the situation to kill Aquaman Arthur. If they could just reveal Orm's crimes, then this battle could be over.
Although she enjoys fighting, she dislikes war because the two concepts are different, and the costs involved are also different.
Subsequent events proved Adam's actions to be correct. Upon hearing that their king had been killed by his younger brother, all the sea warriors were immediately enraged. Because of Aquaman Arthur, their lives had greatly improved, which was why they so devoted to him. Hearing that their king had been killed by humans, the resulting hatred temporarily clouded their judgment, and they clamored for revenge. However, the revelation of the truth left them with nothing but anger and guilt, unable to express any other emotions.
He took out a magical artifact made by Christine to seal abilities from his pocket, then put it around Orm's neck. He then tossed Orm to the soldiers, shouting, "This guy is yours to deal with. As for the damage to our city, please send a representative to negotiate compensation with the new government."
Chapter 386 The Incident Ends
"So, my daughter was just kidnapped like that?" Adam said, somewhat speechless, after hearing about Athena and the whereabouts of the Tower of Tartars.
“Yeah, that’s right, but I think those guys are the ones who should be in trouble.” Green Arrow shrugged and said, “Besides, don’t worry, Bruce’s already gone. He’ll contact us if anything comes up.”
"Well, the child is getting more and more playful." Adam knew that no one could possibly harm Ganata herself, so he wasn't too worried. He was just a little speechless that Athena hadn't told him about this.
"What should we do now? None of the main characters are here," Green Lantern asked as he approached.
“Now that the war has stopped, we should start the rescue work. I’ve discovered that some people who didn’t have time to evacuate during the previous war with the sea creatures are trapped inside their houses,” Water Knight suggested.
"Alright, that's all we can do for now. Let's wait for Bruce's news while we wait." Batman had already joined them by this time and immediately replied upon hearing Aquaman's words.
“We also need some support. Contact the resistance and ask them to send some people over as well,” Wonder Woman added.
“Then I’ll go look around and see if there’s anyone who needs help.” Adam said, leaving the man aside, and then added, “He doesn’t need to worry. I’ve used a special method to keep him from waking up for the time being.”
Knowing that humans have low magic resistance, Adam simply used some gadgets from his personal magical inventory to knock them unconscious.
Time flew by, and by the time Adam and the others finished cleaning up the scene, they saw Bruce Wayne, Ganata, and Athena rushing over from the side. They then learned that someone within the Rebel Alliance had betrayed Lex Luthor, wanting to establish their own faction, and this incident had conveniently provided her with the opportunity.
That's right, it was 'she' who suddenly attacked the Flash and Janata this time. It was the woman who had been standing next to Lex Luthor. Obviously, she approached Lex Luthor with a purpose. But who is Lex Luthor? He's a ruthless and cunning man. How could he possibly trust someone who suddenly appears next to him? Therefore, he has been wary of him and hasn't told him about the true strength of his side. That's why this operation was carried out due to the information asymmetry.
Clearly, her so-called independent action failed. It was thwarted by a little girl named Janata, who was about six years old, and then, because of Bruce Wayne, she was taken into custody before she could even begin, thus ending this absurd affair.
"So, you just went over there to watch the show?" Adam asked, looking at Athena and Bruce Wayne with disdain.
"Ahem, we didn't expect it to turn out this way either," Bruce Wayne said, a rare occurrence for him, before turning to the others and asking, "Has everything been taken care of here?"
"Yes, thanks to our involvement, the rescue operation is over. As for reconstruction, we'll have to wait for the interim government," Green Lantern nodded slightly.
“Well then, you all go back and rest. I’ll arrange a celebration banquet for you in a few days.” Bruce Wayne seemed to be in a good mood. After promising everyone that there would be a celebration banquet later, he asked Adam, “What about Clark?”
"Look, he's right there. I knocked him unconscious with magic. Once we get him to a prison where they can keep an eye on him, we can wake him up," Adam said, pointing to the person lying to the side.
"Magic, is it Miss Athena's arm?" Bruce Wayne asked, seemingly very interested.
"No, they're just some little trinkets my fiancée made for me." Adam didn't hide anything, after all, they were from two different worlds, and this wasn't something worth keeping secret.
“There’s a place that can keep him in check, and we’ve been preparing for this day,” Bruce Wayne said.
"By the way, where's the Flash?" Adam suddenly realized he didn't see the Flash and asked.
Bruce Wayne, while examining the magical artifact worn on the person, replied, "He was ambushed by two people and was injured. Although Miss Janata healed him, he is not in good spirits and has gone back to rest."
"Uh, did Janata use healing magic?" Adam asked, somewhat surprised.
Since Janata began learning magic, she has always been interested in offensive magic. As for healing magic, she had never mastered any of it before, which shows that Barry Allen holds a much higher place in her heart than most people.
"What? Doesn't she know how to use healing magic?" Bruce Wayne's hand, which was moving, suddenly stopped, and he asked.
"Well, yes, I can, but I've never successfully used it," Adam shrugged.
"I feel a little bit sorry for Barry." Well, things have come to a satisfactory end, and the old man has even shown a rare bit of cunning.
After studying for a long time without finding anything, Bruce Wayne prepared to leave with his men. As for the rest of them, he arranged for them to stay in a five-star hotel, because what happened next was no longer something that the Justice League or Adam could interfere with.
Green Arrow walked over at that moment and shouted, "Hey everyone, anyone want a drink?"
Green Lantern shook his head and said, "I need to take care of my arm, and I also need to take Hal and Sinestro to see the Guardians."
Wonder Woman shook her head and said, "I still have to send these sisters back to Paradise Island, where we'll have a party."
“Hey, if that’s the case, I can participate too!” Green Arrow’s eyes lit up and he immediately said.
“Men are not allowed on Paradise Island, that’s the rule!” Wonder Woman flatly rejected Green Arrow’s suggestion; she didn’t want this playboy going to an island full of women.
At this moment, Aquaman chimed in, saying, "I still want to go back to Atlantis to take a look; I'm not entirely at ease about the situation there."
"Don't look at me, I need to go back to my daughter. She doesn't want to see a drunk dad," Adam added, delivering another jab.
Green Arrow felt instantly devoid of love; the whole world seemed filled with malice. He pursed his lips and said, "Fine, I'll go by myself!" Then he turned and left without looking back.
Everyone just smiled when they saw this, then said their goodbyes and left Paradise Beach. Since the battle was over, but the city was still under martial law, Adam decided to go home and play games with Janata.
Meanwhile, Bruce Wayne got busy. This time, apart from himself and The Flash, there were almost no other members of the Justice League who were fighting against humanity. Therefore, for the sake of Earth's safety, he dug out some of the lists he had been selecting and carefully compared them one by one, preparing to rebuild the Justice League in the future.
Under their leadership, the rebels thoroughly purged some of the government's lackeys and those who had made serious mistakes. As for those who had to continue working just to make a living, they were given a verbal warning and that was it. After all, it is easy to change top leaders, but it is very difficult to change leaders at the grassroots level.
Of course, these things can't be resolved overnight, so for ordinary people, it just feels like the world has changed after they've had a good night's sleep, just like it did five years ago when they woke up. After all, while ordinary people make up an important part of society, they don't make up the main part of a country; rather, they are the political group that leads the entire country. Only those within this group can feel the slightest changes happening outside.
It took the rebels a full week to re-establish their new government, and the crimes of humanity and the Justice League were slowly revealed, finally making the people realize that such things had actually happened in the world. A true return to the situation five years ago would likely take several more years. However, all of this had nothing to do with the Justice League and Adam from another world; after all, they were only there to help overthrow human tyranny, nothing more. If they interfered, it would arouse suspicion. Therefore, before receiving Bruce Wayne's invitation, they all consciously avoided gathering together, quietly waiting for an opportunity.
Chapter 387 Victory Celebration Banquet and Returning Home
It seems every successful conclusion is followed by a celebration, so a week later, Bruce Wayne contacted everyone, saying that things here were settled and a celebration was in order. Of course, it might also be a farewell party, since everyone had their own matters to attend to and couldn't stay in this world for too long. Meanwhile, Cyborg, the Flash, and others from Green Arrow's world had, through their own efforts, created a transdimensional treadmill—well, judging from the name, it's something that opened a portal to another dimension with divine power. So, when they decided on the celebration, Cyborg and his companion appeared before everyone.
Although the two of them didn't do anything after arriving, they were guests from afar, and both were ability users, so Bruce Wayne certainly wouldn't be stingy with the cost of drinks, and thus invited them over as well.
The man first came with Bruce Wayne to the place where Karl El was imprisoned in this world. Looking at the man in the prison, who was staring at the photo in his hand and immersed in his own world, he sighed softly.
"What would you do if you were in that situation?" Bruce Wayne suddenly asked.
"What if it were me?" The man was taken aback, then gave a wry smile and said, "I'd probably end up like him."
“Yes, you guys all have pretty similar personalities, but you should be careful. If you ever fall into depravity, I’ll come looking for you,” Bruce Wayne said calmly.
"Ah, well then you'll have to wait in line." The man smiled slightly and left the prison with Bruce Wayne.
On the way, the man also learned about Adam. He was very curious about people from other universes, especially since he was also called a human in his own world.
“He’ll be back at the celebration party tonight. I think you two will get along really well,” Bruce Wayne suddenly said to someone.
"Is that so? Then I'll look forward to it." The man didn't seem to grasp the meaning behind Bruce Wayne's words and said with a smile.
Of course, Adam was unaware of all this. During that week, he used the credit card given to him by Bruce Wayne to travel around with Janata and Athena. This was something that would have been impossible in the other world. After all, in the other world, almost everyone knew Adam Stark. Unless they carried magical items with them, they would become the focus of attention wherever they went, and would eventually encounter people who supported them or those who strongly opposed them.
What? You're asking if there are people who don't like Adam Stark? That's normal. Adam Stark isn't a dollar bill, so how could everyone like him? There will always be people who feel threatened by the existence of superheroes, and some people will lose something or someone because they get caught up in the battles between superheroes and super criminals. So they will go around protesting and calling on the government to disband all superheroes and arrest these people.
Therefore, in this world where no one knew Adam Stark, he traveled around with the two beautiful women, enjoying himself immensely. Of course, his only regret was that he didn't bring Christine with him when he first came here.
When Bruce Wayne informed him of the victory celebration party that night, he was at Disneyland with Gianna and Athena, having a great time like a normal family. They weren't afraid of the rides, but they still screamed all over the place, thoroughly enjoying the atmosphere.
“Okay, I’ll arrive on time. Oh, people from another world are here too? Looks like there’s no crisis in their world.” Adam tilted his head, holding his phone between his chin and shoulder, while carrying a plate piled high with various snacks and ice cream in both hands, chatting with Bruce Wayne as they walked.
"Hmm, no need to thank me. To be honest, I'm very relaxed in this world. I haven't enjoyed this kind of relaxation in a long time." Adam smiled and placed the sign in front of Athena and Ganata. Then he picked up his phone with his right hand and said, "Haha, you said it. I'll definitely come over if I feel tired over there. Well, see you tonight."
Athena saw Adam and asked, "Is that Batman? What did he say?"
"They said there's a celebration party tonight, inviting us people from other worlds to get together. Of course, it's also because Green Arrow and the others are preparing to go back; after all, they've essentially left that world as a whole team," Adam explained.
"Oh, so that means we can eat as much as we want tonight?" Janata suddenly interjected.
"Of course, sweetheart, you can eat as much as you want tonight. Everyone there is one of us, so they won't make a fuss," Adam said with a smile.
"Great! I wish it would get dark soon so I can eat something delicious," Janata said happily.
Because he was afraid that Janata's actions would arouse suspicion and speculation from others, mainly because some American associations were really too annoying, and to prevent some unnecessary trouble, Adam said when he brought Janata out today that she couldn't eat as extravagantly as she does at home. That's why the little beauty Janata was so interested in the celebration party.
Because she was looking forward to a delicious dinner, Janata didn't pay as much attention to fun things as before. After all, for someone of the Devourer race, eating is always the top priority!
Therefore, Adam and the others did not continue to wander around outside. Since the banquet was to be held at Wayne Manor in Gotham City, the three of them cast invisibility spells on themselves and flew to Gotham City, to the front of Wayne Manor.
