Chapter 272 Three-Day Countdown, the End of Traitors
When Supergirl Kara walked along the corridor leading to the Hall of Justice and arrived at the small reception room connected to the corridor in front of the conference room, she saw four people sitting together.
Flash Barry Allen, Martian Manhunter John Jones, and Wonder Woman Diana Prince.
They sat together and chatted in a very harmonious atmosphere. The Flash used his super speed to play chess with the Martian Manhunter and Street Fighter 4 with Wonder Woman on the screen.
When Kara walked to their side, Wonder Woman's Chun Li (a controllable game character in Street Fighter 4) was defeated by Ken controlled by the Flash with his precise parrying of every attack.
"Hey, this is not fair!" Diana threw down the controller.
"Hmm..." Flash disappeared from the spot, then appeared in front of Martian Manhunter's chessboard and moved a chess piece, then sat back on the sofa diagonally opposite Wonder Woman with a burrito in his mouth:
"How should I put it? The god of fighting games, Daigo Umemoto, can make a suitable parry in 0.2 seconds, but my speed is 1,000 times faster than his."
(Note: Daigo Umemoto is a real person in reality)
"Come again." Wonder Woman said: "In the name of Hera, I will not keep losing!"
This relaxed atmosphere made Supergirl Kara feel relieved.
It seems that she has not been exposed yet, and is still the backbone of the Justice League, Batman's Robin, and is treated like a teammate.
But she still plans to test it.
So after greeting the few people sitting outside, Kara subconsciously wanted to push the door and walk into the conference room directly, but then she realized that this seemed a bit too tense, so she still chatted with the trio outside for a few words, and then found a reason to walk into the main conference room.
One is to see the situation, and the other is to find the other two accomplices.
Then she saw that in the huge reception room... only Batman was sitting there...
It was as if a swirling and raging shadow was licking its claws on the main seat.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
It was like a silent drumbeat hitting her mind heavily. Kara's heart beat very fast, and a chill rushed directly from the coccyx to her forehead
But in an instant, Batman turned his head, and the suffocating atmosphere disappeared without a trace.
"Kara, are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine."
"The meeting hasn't started yet, there's something to eat, are you hungry?"
"No, it's okay."
"Have some drinks prepared by Alfred, refresh your mind, a cup of honey black tea sparkling water with mint will make you feel better."
"Okay." Kara's eyes swept across the drinks on the small table next to her.
She flew over and poured herself a cup.
While pouring tea, Kara silently analyzed Batman's performance.
In the few seconds of the question and answer session just now, Batman's attitude seemed to be a little impatient because his thinking was interrupted, but with a little concern, he responded with a few words in a super natural state, and there was nothing abnormal.
"I'll wait outside." So Kara left with confidence.
Not long after, other members of the Justice League also came in a sparse manner. Supergirl Kara and Cyborg Superman looked at each other and confirmed each other's safety in a silent communication.
"... Ladies and gentlemen, I solemnly introduce a new member to you..."
"The King of the Seven Seas, Arthur Curry!"
"He will be..."
"Team cooperation training for everyone..."
"Joint strategy with the Rogues as the backbone of the attack phalanx..."
Supergirl sat in her own seat and did not express any opinions. She silently collected the information revealed in the meeting.
The content of the meeting was unremarkable, just some daily affairs of the league, but she knew that this was just an appetizer, and everyone gathered together today not for these things.
As expected, the meeting soon got to the point:
"... The three Mother Boxes have been completely collected... The plan to trap Steppenwolf..."
Supergirl Kara did not look at Cyborg, but they both knew what would happen.
The target of the trap that Batman and his team had recruited would not be Steppenwolf alone, but the monsters released from the Eternal Vault by the Muse Mite and Steppenwolf's entire demon-like army.
At the critical moment, the three spies hidden in the Justice League, Supergirl, Cyborg and Billy's father CC Batson, would suddenly attack the strongest members of the league, causing the entire plan to collapse.
Even if Batman can rely on his own strength to withstand the backstabs of three people and forcibly defeat the combination of Mist Mite and Steppenwolf, the entire Justice League and Batman himself are probably already exhausted. Then, they will activate the backup plan with the [Outsiders] and summon Darkseid to Earth through the [Father Box] in the hands of the other party... Don't forget, the [Father Box] was found by Mist Mite himself from the eternal cellar sealed by the Wizard Council and handed over to the [Outsiders]. How could he not tamper with it? The Outsiders' original idea of not wanting to summon Darkseid was doomed to fail. Everything is for Darkseid. Darkseid will come directly to Earth and destroy all enemies who dare to resist him. More than 10 minutes later.
The meeting was over. Kara was about to return to her room after walking out of the Hall of Justice. At this time, she heard Batman's call from her headset, which drove her back to the meeting room again.
The people in the meeting room were gone. Kara pushed the door open and saw that in addition to herself, there were only four people in the meeting room: Green Lantern Hal, Martian Manhunter John Jones, Wonder Woman Diana Prince and Batman.
Batman just sat there with a sad face.
Kara realized that the current chat had some elements of gossiping, so she also showed some deliberate relaxation.
Batman seemed more natural: "Since Kara is here, our meeting can start.
Let me put it this way, everyone who appeared on the scene is the person I trust the most.
There are three days left, and three days left is the day we lure Steppenwolf and solve it. But before that, we have another important thing to do."
Kara pricked up her ears.
"You should know Grodd and Turtle. I have kept them because they are one of the keys to our victory."
Kara was not stupid enough to ask such a stupid question as "Why are they the key to our victory?" If Batman doesn't tell her the reason, it means he wants to keep it secret.
At this time, even if you ask, you will be evaded, and Batman will think that you are not good enough for him.
So Kara wisely chose the normal reaction that Batman most wants to see from his successor: silence.
"Of course, of course, there is also a machine called a lightning rod. This thing is also very important, right? We have to hide this thing in a place where Steppenwolf and others will never find it. Even the Red of All Beings is not safe enough."
"So...?"
"So our goal is Ismote. A reliable hiding place provided by Green Lantern Hal." Kara heard Batman say:
"We have to hide the key to our victory there."
And Kara extracted the key words.
"The key to victory"?
This also means...
Bronze Dragon: The Tyrant's Road to Conquest
"Don't let bronze dragons that pursue absolute order become rulers. Their hatred of chaos will make them tyrants thousands of times more terrifying than evil dragons. In order to maintain the order they believe in, they don't even mind using massacres or even extermination of a race to maintain their rule."
--Sage, Friedrich Quinn
Anyone who dares to disobey my orders will be destroyed!
