American comics: I became a god at the beginning, I chose to practice both science and magic

As for "greed"? What does that have to do with her?

"Dane, my strength is draining away!"

Zatanna quickly explained the current situation to Dane, but fortunately, she was emotionally stable.

"Me too, it's really fucking terrifying!"

Constantine threw the cigarette butt to the ground and crushed it with his foot.

Dane tentatively threw a bolt of lightning at the barrier. The lightning struck the barrier and bounced off, landing randomly on other buildings.

The divine power in his body was so overwhelming that he couldn't even feel the power draining away.

"How are the other battlefields going?"

Diana spoke in the channel at this time: "Those Kryptonians have basically been dealt with!"

Dane could tell she was a little excited. After all, it had been a long time since he had encountered an enemy that was so easy to defeat.

Fighting against the Kryptonians allowed her to fully utilize her Amazonian fighting skills, and she was also the superhero who killed the most enemies on the scene.

If it weren't for Dane's dream setting here, Clark would have said something long ago.

After dealing with all the Kryptonians, all the members of the Justice League gathered together.

"If I'm not mistaken, that barrier is used to trap us, right?"

Hal glanced at the sky. A blue dome enveloped the entire metropolis.

"I wonder if I can use the lantern ring's teleportation ability to get out."

"You can try."

Hal raised the lantern ring and launched the wormhole channel forward as usual, but the wormhole only lasted for a microsecond before collapsing.

"It seems that this is no use." Hal shook his head and lowered his arm.

Dane was thoughtful. It seemed that Hespera's natural power covered a wide range, and the wormhole itself could be considered a way to use natural power.

"Diana, do you feel your strength draining away?"

Diana shook her head when she heard that. She felt nothing.

"Hal, Clark, what about you?"

The two shook their heads when they heard Dane's question. Dane understood. It seemed that it was not that he could not feel it, but that this barrier could not absorb energy at the level of "divine power".

Yes, Superman's power is also judged to be the first level of "divine power", which is judged based on energy level rather than attributes.

"I thought maybe I could give it a try."

Clark looked at the fear barrier in the sky and was eager to try it out.

Dane actually wanted to see it too. Shazam in the movie is unbreakable anyway, so he wondered what about Superman?

Clark jumped up from a standing position, and his body took off like a rocket. The sound of his takeoff was also as loud as a rocket, causing a cloud of dust.

Dane waved his hand, clearing away the smoke and dust, and looked up with everyone else.

With Clark's speed, he reached the barrier almost instantly.

His power was so great that the barrier bulged outward for a long distance, as if it was about to break.

But unfortunately, it didn't break in the end, but bounced Clark back.

He was not convinced at first and tried a few more times before giving up and returning to the ground.

"Just a little bit." Clark said with some regret.

Yes, it was almost there. If Clark had been given more room to accelerate, he might have been able to break the shell with brute force.

"We don't have that much time." Batman said at this time.

He emphasized: "That woman has left. Aren't you curious about where she went?"

Hal said, "He's right. If I want to resolve this incident, that woman should be the key, right?"

In fact, Dane could directly let Cortana use the power of dreams to redefine the barrier, but he also wanted to test his own strength, so he chose a more direct way.

He took off like Clark, and arrived in front of the dome in an instant at great speed. He stretched out his right index finger, and the rich power of thunder condensed on this finger, connecting with the barrier, pulling out a conical "bubble".

At great speed, Dane continued to move forward. Suddenly, he heard a "pop" sound in his ear.

The barrier is broken!

Chapter 237 Ares Appears

As soon as the barrier was broken, the Justice League received some very bad news.

The Soviet Union's Pacific Fleet has already engaged in a firefight with part of the navy stationed in Pearl Harbor, and the war has begun.

The war happened so suddenly that everyone felt something was wrong.

War is an extension of politics, but the Russians did not show any political demands before the war, which made everyone feel a little puzzled.

"We should stop this war!"

Hal made this suggestion without hesitation, as their Green Lantern Corps had experience in dealing with such things.

"Stop it? How?" Constantine glanced at him.

"Are you going to help the United States army attack the Russian fleet, or are you going to destroy both groups?

You don't think you can get them to stop fighting without any casualties, do you?"

The Green Lantern Corps' reputation doesn't sit well with us on Earth.

But Hal retorted: "We can expand the scope of our dreams a little, so that we don't have to worry too much and won't cause too much loss.

Wasn't this method proven in Atlantis? We can replicate it again."

The idea is good, but things are not that simple.

Batman shook his head and objected, "All we can do is stop the war this time, but we can't change the situation of tensions between countries."

"Besides, doing so is very dangerous. The Justice League has always given the impression of being global. It should not and will not become an organization exclusive to the United States. This will change the purity of the League."

Batman and Dane agree on the positioning of the Justice League, and he wants it to be completely independent.

Although the Justice League always acts collectively in the 487th United States, that is because most disasters always occur more in this land.

Maybe it's really bad feng shui.

However, once the JLA intervenes in this war, even if it believes it has acted fairly, it will be interpreted by other countries as siding with the United States.

This would be a huge blow to the JLA's reputation and their righteousness would be questioned.

And Batman's worries are correct. Even if they can stop this war, what about the next one?

Once the Soviet Union or other countries jointly regard the JLA as part of the United States and as a threat, war will happen again.

And the next time it will definitely have a wider impact, maybe even become a world war, a world war that will encompass all humans and superhumans.

Can the Justice League bear such consequences?

To be honest, it's not that they can't afford it. At worst, they will become the Injustice League, but Dane doesn't want to deal with these trivial matters.

They fight to the death among countries, and as long as they don't destroy the world with nuclear bombs, everything will be fine.

To be honest he didn't quite understand why Dr. Manhattan couldn't stop humanity from destroying itself.

Wouldn't it be enough to just keep them in captivity?

In fact, as long as the use of all nuclear bombs is banned and their ability to perish together is cut off at the source, these countries will naturally find ways to seek peace on their own.

A moderate war might make them reflect on how hard peace has come.

"Dane, what do you think?"

Dane came to his senses and saw that all the members were looking at him.

"We, the Justice League, cannot directly participate in war matters."

Dane first set the tone, and he must not let the United States think that the JLA was their thugs.

"But we cannot allow the scale of the war to escalate and turn it into a full-scale war."

If it evolves into a full-scale war, Ares' power will expand to an extremely exaggerated level.

In ancient times, when the whole world united to fight against Darkseid, Ares's power was even able to seriously injure him and lead to the defeat of Apokolips.

Just as Dane was thinking about how to deal with this matter, the message Cortana sent him made him smile.

"It seems we don't have to think about this problem anymore, someone has already helped us solve it."

It turned out that Lex Group’s new communication network had been officially launched in the military command system.

As soon as this system came online, it ordered the United States Pacific Fleet to intercept the Soviet Union's warships.

Not only that, after this command system officially began operations, Washington also contacted NATO military command.

After an exchange of interests, Russia successfully deployed its troops on the border of the Russian Bear, as if it was ready to launch a major attack.

After all, the Russian bear is no longer the same as it used to be. After calming down, it began to weigh the pros and cons and was no longer as brave and fearless as it was at the beginning.

Ultimately, launching a modern war on impulse is difficult to sustain; there are many things to consider.

Ares has been away from human society for too long and lacks the necessary understanding of the current international situation. This is no longer the World War I era where he could wantonly provoke war.

Alexander Luthor himself may not have realized that he had defeated Ares without knowing it, thwarting his plot to start a world war.

Then let them do the rest.

"We no longer need to worry about war. As long as both sides remain calm, this dispute will at most develop into a low-intensity war."

As long as the balance of power is not unbalanced, everyone can always remain restrained.

"Compared to the war, the other battlefield is what we should focus on."

"what?"

"I have confirmed information. Ares is behind this war. He was the one who provoked the Russian bear and blamed it on the United States."

"Ares!" Diana reacted strongly, "This is impossible, isn't he dead?" And she killed him with her own hands.

Dane told her: "Gods are difficult to kill. As long as there is still the concept of war in this world, Ares can be reborn again.

You should know that after Ares' death, a massive war broke out in the human world."

This war was even larger in scale than the First World War caused by Ares. It was the Second World War, known as the "meat grinder of life."

It was this war that allowed Ares to be reborn and even gain greater strength than in the First World War.

His plan failed this time, and he probably couldn't gain any power. It was a good time to kill him.

Although God cannot die, it would be good to let him rest for a while.

And Dane had been waiting for them to appear for a long time. He couldn't even remember how long he had been waiting for these gods to show up.

So he immediately used the tracking spell to find the person, but the magic failed. He was not surprised. After all, he was a god, so he should have some tricks.

Even if he didn't, Hades would help him.

"Cortana, use satellite analysis to determine if there are any unusual energy sources near the Pacific Ocean."

He believed that Ares must be secretly near the battlefield, and he liked to feel the atmosphere of the battlefield up close.

"Found it. The target is indeed near the Pacific Ocean, and Arthur Curry is also there."

Because Arthur still had work to do as the king, Dane did not let him participate in this operation, and did not even tell him about this matter.

But as a member of the Justice League, you won’t miss it no matter what, right?

"One more thing, Dane, Hespera has appeared in Central City with another new group of Kryptonians. A new metahuman has recently appeared there."

Central City?

Could it be that Hespera was going after Barry Allen?

It's not impossible. She may not know what "Speed Force" means, but Hades may not.

Even if Hades didn't know much about the Speed Force, he certainly knew the potential of this power.

"Clark, is it okay for you to take them to the Pacific battlefield?"

"What about you?" Clark couldn't help but ask.
