Chapter 406 The Epic Strengthened Batman Team
As soon as he flew out, Diana quickly brought Steve to a standstill, so that he did not hit the wall of the living room.
But this instantaneous change from extreme movement to extreme stillness still caused a gust of wind in the living room, blowing the hair of everyone on the sofa.
But the strange thing is that only everyone's hair and clothes seem to be affected.
The various objects placed in the living room remained motionless in place, not being blown by the strong wind at all.
Such a strange scene should have surprised everyone.
But among everyone in the living room at this moment, only Batman noticed this detail.
Everyone else was wrapped up in their own emotions.
"Dad, Mom!"
Leta cheered, immediately jumped down from the sofa, and threw herself into Steve's arms with a confused look on his face.
Diana loosened her arm around Steve's waist and stared blankly at the smiling Lin Zhongtian on the sofa.
"……teacher?"
A slightly uncertain voice came, and a smile appeared on Lin Zhongtian's face.
"Long time no see, Diana."
"Teacher, is it really you? Are you back?!"
Diana's face was full of surprise and she couldn't help but quickly stepped forward and hugged Lin Zhongtian tightly on the sofa.
Lin Zhongtian patted her back with a smile and said softly: "Okay, we are now parents. Be calm, the child is still here!"
Diana let go of Lin Zhongtian with some embarrassment, and then hugged Donna next to her with a smile on her face.
At this time, Steve finally recovered from the sudden change in environment, and looked at Lin Zhongtian on the sofa with a sudden realization.
"I asked why I suddenly arrived home. It turned out to be you..."
Like Diana, Steve's face showed genuine joy.
But compared to Diana, who regarded Lin Zhongtian as a close elder, Steve had more respect and awe for Lin Zhongtian.
Looking at Lin Zhongtian's young face, which was the same as it was eighty or ninety years ago, a complicated look flashed in Steve's eyes.
Time cannot leave traces on a god, but it will bring irreversible changes to him.
He is obviously much older now than he was back then. Judging from his appearance, he is about forty to forty-five years old.
Naturally, the exercises Lin Zhongtian taught him did not have such a significant effect on his appearance.
So he guessed that Steve probably also used the so-called Lazarus Pool.
There is no other way. If a short-lived species like human wants to stay with a demigod like Diana for a long time, it must take some special measures.
Fortunately, this is the DC world, with all kinds of rare treasures emerging in endlessly. Otherwise, with Diana's character, she would use some abnormal means to extend Steve's life.
At this moment, Diana came over holding Donna’s hand and said with a smile:
"Teacher, let me introduce to you, she was back then..."
"I know."
Lin Zhongtian interrupted Diana's words with a smile.
Donna also held her mother's hand and whispered a few words in her ear.
Diana suddenly understood, and immediately turned to look at Bruce, who was sitting quietly on the sofa, watching everything with cold eyes.
"We already know about the aliens, what are you going to do?"
"I plan to form a team and make preparations..."
Bruce looked calm and repeated his thoughts again.
As Donna's adoptive parents, Diana and Steve also know Batman's true identity.
Hearing Bruce's words, Diana and Steve looked at each other, pondered for a moment, and nodded: "We can join your team."
"I can too!"
Leta raised her hands in excitement.
Steve twitched the corner of his mouth, put down her raised little hand with black lines on his head, and then winked at Donna.
Donna understood, and immediately stepped forward, ignoring Little Leta's resistance, and took her back to her room.
The troublesome kid finally left, and everyone in the living room could finally discuss the arrival of aliens seriously.
Diana pondered: "Since we have to be prepared on both sides, we must also find the aliens hiding on the earth."
Having said this, Diana turned to look at Lin Zhongtian: "Teacher, do you know where he is?"
Bruce narrowed his eyes slightly and turned his gaze to Lin Zhongtian.
Lin Zhongtian smiled slightly and said two key words.
"Lois Lane, Kansas."
"..."
Bruce had a thoughtful look on his face.
He immediately took out his cell phone from his pocket and called Alfred, the butler of the Batcave.
When the call was dialed, Bruce said straight to the point without any nonsense: "Look up Lois Lane and Kansas State."
There was sudden silence on the other end of the phone.
Not long after, Alfred's voice sounded again.
"Lois Lane, female, American nationality, born in Wiesbaden, Germany, 27 years old, 170cm tall, 115 pounds, unmarried, currently a reporter for the Daily Planet."
"A year ago, Lois Lane collaborated with self-media worker Wood Burn to publish an alien-related article on the latter's website, which described an alien living in seclusion on Earth. s story."
"But soon, the Daily Planet held accountable, severely criticized Lois Lane for publishing reports privately through the Internet, and imposed a two-week suspension."
"Since then, Lois Lane has never mentioned the incident again, and the article was quickly removed from the shelves and disappeared."
“It is reported that between the time the online report was published and the time it was removed from the shelves, Lois Lane traveled around the country, and her last stop was Kansas, located in the very center of the continental United States. .”
Hearing Alfred's words, Bruce tapped his fingers on the table with a thoughtful look on his face.
"So, the alien is hiding in Kansas?"
Diana said solemnly: "Do you need me to find this Lois Lane?"
"I'm afraid not, Mrs. Trevor." Alfred's slightly regretful voice came from the mobile phone, "I retrieved this file from the database of the Ministry of Defense, and they have already hired Louise. Ryan is now hiding her in a secret military base outside Washington..."
"Then grab it!"
Diana said calmly.
Steve looked helpless: "Let me talk to the general in charge."
Diana shook her head: "In the past, I would not have interfered in your dirty political affairs, but now it is about the survival of the earth. I will never hand over the final decision-making power like I did during World War II decades ago. To these idiots who only do bad things!"
Steve asked: "If you don't leave it to them, then who should you leave it to? Is it you and me?"
Diana didn't speak, just turned to look at Lin Zhongtian.
Lin Zhongtian laughed, shook his head, and turned his gaze to Bruce.
He is not interested in Diana's proposal. Instead of letting him, an outsider, interfere, it is better to hand over the decision-making power directly to Batman.
And he is also curious about what the mortal Batman, who was originally powerless in the plot of "Man of Steel," can do with the help of Wonder Woman's family and even himself.
Facing Lin Zhongtian's slightly smiling gaze, Bruce was slightly startled, and then his expression became serious.
…
…
Military District of Washington.
Tanks painted in camouflage drove out of the military camp and lined up in the open space in front of the gate. Under the control of the soldiers, the thick barrels were raised high and aimed at the floating streak in the sky. Red and blue figures.
Clark Kent floated in the air calmly, wearing a red and blue tight-fitting battle suit. The surface of the fighting spirit was outlined with a chainmail-like pattern, which glowed with a metallic luster under the sunlight.
On his chest is printed the crest of the El family, shaped like the letter "S".
A bright red cloak on the back rustled in the warm midday wind.
After talking with the priest, Clark finally made a decision and planned to stand on the same side as the earth.
Because of this, he came to the military base and prepared to have a good exchange with the top human beings.
Soon, two camouflage-painted armored vehicles slowly drove out from the tank group.
Clark raised his eyebrows and slowly lowered his figure under the alert and nervous gazes of all the soldiers.
It’s no wonder that the army and soldiers were so prepared, it was really Clark’s appearance that was too impressive. After all, according to human understanding, only gods, and the most powerful gods, can break through the shackles of gravity.
This can be seen from the status of sky gods in local myths.
Therefore, when Clark slowly flew down from the sky, without any words, everyone understood that this man in a red cloak floating in the air was the alien tribesman General Zod said.
Soon, the armored vehicle stopped at the front of the tank group.
The general, who was wearing an army uniform and with three rows of medals hanging on his chest, stepped out of the armored vehicle and looked at Clark, who was wearing a red and blue uniform, in the sky with solemnity and shock.
After coming back to his senses, the general frowned and spoke solemnly.
"Tell me, Mr. Alien, what do you want to do?"
"I want to talk to Lois Lane..."
Clark said calmly.
The general immediately frowned: "Who told you she was here?"
Clark shook his head: "I advise you not to waste time, General. I will surrender, but only if you ensure Lois Lane's freedom and personal safety."
"..."
The general frowned and looked at each other with the senior officials around him.
A minute later, Clark's hands were handcuffed and he was escorted into the barracks by a team of heavy-fire special forces. Soon he came to the prison cell where Lois Lane was held.
Looking at Clark opposite, Lois Lane couldn't help but reveal a helpless and slightly apologetic smile.
Before Louise could speak, Clark smiled and said, "Don't blame yourself, I surrendered on my own initiative."
Louise shook her head: "You shouldn't surrender. That General Zod is not trustworthy."
Clark smiled slightly and said softly: "I know, so I am not surrendering to Zod, but surrendering to humans. There is a big difference between the two..."
