Chapter 305 It's Normal to Have Eight People in a Group of Seven
It's the same island, the same tavern.
However, this time, there were not so many people in the tavern.
Except for Lynn, who was sitting in the corner and didn't hear anything outside the window, and was concentrating on playing Jenga with a wine glass, there were only two people sitting next to each other in silence at the bar not far away.
Aquaman Arthur.
Batman Bruce.
Relatively speechless, the two were silently observing each other, confirming the rumors and information about each other in their heads.
but……
Their attention was still drawn to Lynn from time to time.
Ping Pong Pong~
Lynn's glass was half-stacked and overturned.
"he……"
Arthur has always been a straight-talking character. Today, he is facing a stranger, who is also a big man in the legend, and the person he is talking about is sitting not far behind him and is cursing. cup.
Therefore, Arthur's language expression is relatively calm and polite.
"Is there something wrong with his mind?"
"Oh, you...you just take him for granted."
Neither of them may have expected that this "hostile comparison" in terms of momentum would be disrupted by others in such a chaotic way.
It can only be said that this is Lynn.
Still, Bruce remembered what he was here for.
"Mr. Arthur, I believe..."
"Just call Arthur."
Very heroic, Arthur stood up, stretched out his hand, and took out a bottle of dark green wine from the lower shelf behind the bar. You can tell from the color of the label on the bottle that this thing may be old.
There are two paper cups between his fingers, which are one of the few cups in the tavern that have not been destroyed by Lynn.
One by one, after the wine was poured, Arthur changed to a comfortable position, leaned on the bar, and picked up the paper cup.
"So you're the... guy from Gotham?"
Arthur smiled suspiciously: "To be honest, if someone says it's you, I don't really believe it.
You capitalists are all one... oh sorry, I may have said something I shouldn't have said. "
Bruce is fine, on the contrary, he doesn't care whether the capitalist is scolded or Batman is scolded.
Batman didn't want to be praised and recognized by others.Batman is Batman.Batman is just Batman.
So, smiling and shaking his head, Bruce also raised the paper cup: "I think what you said makes sense."
"Hahahahaha! That's right! It seems that you are very different from those capitalists!"
"Lynn, I should have told you everything."
"Ah."
Arthur still looked indifferent: "The end of the world, to be honest, I personally don't care much about this issue. The end of human beings is not necessarily a bad thing sometimes, is it?"
"But what if this planet becomes a dead planet?"
"That's why I promised to see you."
After drinking all the wine in the glass, Arthur gave way, and after Bruce shook his head and refused, he drank directly from the bottle.
Bruce took a sip of the wine in his glass, and changed his words: "Well, I just said it. If, that day comes. If, that day, we fail to resist success, then, this."
Bruce pointed to the bottle.
"this."
Bruce pointed around the tavern.
"Everything you care about, everything you see will disappear. Your existence, the past and future of human beings, will completely disappear from this universe.
Everything will be meaningless.Including your pain, your unwillingness, including your doubts, your intolerance...
All this will be meaningless. "
"Wow, that sounds really good."
Arthur duang put down the wine bottle.
"You don't need to say any more."
He stood up and went to the window to take a look.
Outside the window, in the houses next to the tavern, on the window sills of those houses, densely packed people, everyone in this small town is concerned about their meeting this time.
"You brought the money."
Bruce was a little surprised by Arthur's directness. He originally thought that such a foreigner who had been wandering outside human society would be quite difficult to approach and would be quite stubborn.
did not expect……
"Of course I brought it."
Bruce paused, and continued: "It's just, you know, it may not be a good thing for them to suddenly have a lot of cash and money."
"I know, my friend. Well, what can you do?"
"I will buy a restaurant, a restaurant that specializes in delicious food. Use this restaurant to buy the output of this village, and then..."
"Okay, okay, I don't understand. But..."
Arthur came over: "I believe you."
"Ah."
Bruce also stood up and held Arthur's outstretched hand: "I hope I won't let you down."
"Hahahaha! No, no, no. Oh, by the way, since you can afford Lynn, you must be good at fighting. Why don't we compete?"
Bruce raised his eyebrows, and wanted to ask Arthur if you misunderstood something, but instead of saying that, he put on a smile: "Okay. Then, let's make an appointment."
Talking and laughing, the two walked out the door.
"Hey! Wait a minute, Bruce, do you have any money, give me some."
Stopping, Bruce frowned, and took out the checkbook: "Lynn, why don't I help you start a private equity company, invest money for you, and then find someone to help you operate it, so that you can use the money more conveniently."
"what?"
Lynn was taken aback: "What do I want so much money for? What are you doing with the check? Cash, cash, give me two one-hundred-dollar bills."
"Ah? What are you doing?"
"cup."
Lynn pointed behind him: "Pay them for the cup."
………………
Aquaman, Green Arrow, Superman, Cyborg, Lightning, Wonder Woman...
"And I."
After Bruce scratched the last stroke on the small notebook, he meditated quietly again.
After deducting Lynn, what Bruce can think of at present, which satisfies the combat requirements of all aspects to a certain extent, balances the forces of all parties, and can check each other, is probably these seven people.
If possible, Lynn can be used as a candidate for "non-staff personnel". Others don't know, but Bruce knows that besides Lynn himself, the cat he raised is very strong, even probably It is Diana's level of combat power.
When General Zod invaded the earth, Superman went to resist General Zod, and the equally powerful and unstoppable female adjutant beside him was blocked by Lynn and the cat that would only turn into an angel.
At that time, Bruce himself was around the battlefield and witnessed all this with his own eyes.
Thinking of this, Bruce's pen tip slid across the paper again.
"The Kryptonian female adjutant... is called Fiora, right... There is also a little Kryptonian, um..."
After thinking about it, Bruce drew two more splitting lines behind Lynn's name and wrote down the two names.
After staring at these names for a long time, Bruce shook his head helplessly until his head hurt from thinking about it, and turned over the page.
"Lynn..."
Forced to temporarily get those thoughts out of his head, Bruce wrote the Martian Manhunter's name on the next page, then crossed it out.
The Martian Manhunter is undoubtedly very powerful, and even, to a certain extent, the Martian Manhunter, who has the ability to control the mind and can release the mind shield, is even more buggy than Superman.
When he was fighting against the big red demon, Bruce was also a teammate with Martian Manhunter once, and he had experienced the power of Martian Manhunter.
To be honest, in the first battle at that time, Superman and Diana gave it for nothing at the first time, and in turn became their "enemy" and burden.
Had it not been for Martian Manhunter at the time, relying on his strong combat power and ability to have almost no weaknesses, they would not have survived Lynn's arrival at that time, and they might have been directly wiped out by the Sangong Demon.
However, it is precisely because of this that Bruce does not want to add the Martian Manhunter to his organization.
On the one hand, Martian Manhunter's mind control ability is a bit too strong, and there is no way to resist it for the time being.But for now, Bruce lacks the understanding of Martian Manhunter, so he can't fully trust him.
Powerful and unfamiliar = uncontrollable risk.
Aquaman and Green Arrow don't have this problem, and Flash is even more so, he is just a child.
On the other hand, Martian Manhunter's "birth problem" is not convenient for him to join in the early stages of founding this organization.
After all, he is the one who caresses.Is an official engaged in secret work.
So, after thinking about it, Bruce still reluctantly gave up this powerful combat power for the time being, and listed him as a candidate.
After that, Bruce wrote a new name.
Green Lantern.
The finger hooked unnaturally, of course Bruce still remembered how powerful the ring he once wore on his hand was.
May all your wishes come true?
That's about it.
Lynn told him the story of the ring, and he always wanted to entice him to take the green light ring as his own, and he was quite critical of the person who was supposed to be the owner of the green light ring. .
Anything that Lynn doesn't care much about and doesn't want to do is not necessarily a good thing.
Whatever Lynn wants to do is what he is interested in, there is a high probability that it is not a good thing.
Facing a friend like Lynn who...has an active mind, Bruce, who has plans and steps in his mind, always wants to come up with some stylized rules to get along with him.
The two above are one of the rules Bruce summed up.
Lynn wanted the green light ring so much, but he didn't have much intention of keeping it for himself. Instead, he always wanted him to wear it.
Bruce never forgot Lynn's idea of destroying Gotham and rebuilding it.
He himself estimated that if he really took that ring as his own, maybe Gotham would not be far from being rebuilt.
"So... the ring has returned to the owner's side. Does that mean that Lynn's plan has failed, and he has started a new plan?"
Bruce felt as if he had to bring this Green Lantern into the mix.On the one hand, it is to use his power to strengthen the superhero organization, and on the other hand, it is also to protect the owner of the ring.
Because, no one knows what Lynn can do.
What if.
Thinking of this, Bruce turned a page, wrote Green Lantern's name behind himself, and drew a circle.
"In this case, there are eight people."
Well, this time it can't be called the Seven.What do you call it, Group of Eight?It's a bit too child's play. In the future, this organization may have newcomers. Will it change its name then?
"Forget it for now. Let's call it a superhero team for the time being. The rest of the matter will be discussed when everyone really gets together."
Closing the small notebook in his hand, Bruce picked up the mobile phone beside him, ready to call Alfred and ask him how the components he customized in factories around the world were doing.
By the way, also ask how the team base built under a pseudonym is doing.
As soon as I picked up the phone, it rang.
Bruce looked at the caller's name, frowned, looked around, and connected the call.
"Steelbone, what's the matter?"
"Mr. Bruce, it's moving."
"what?"
"That box. The Mother Box! It's flickering in crazy Cyborg, dancing!"
"I'm coming right now!"
........................
A home of steel.
outside the window.
Taking advantage of the night, Bruce changed his clothes, turned into Batman, and quietly appeared outside the window of Cyborg's house.
Dangdang~
He knocked on the window a few times, wearing a thick sweater, with a red light on his steel face covering his head and face, he ran over and opened the window.
"It's over there, and it has temporarily quieted down."
"Ah."
Without unnecessary nonsense and greetings, the two went straight to the problem, and came to the steel frame room together, and saw the motionless iron box placed in a specially made heavy metal box.
mother box.
"When did it start to move, did any special circumstances happen at that time, and when did it stop, did any special things happen at that time."
Although the box was motionless now, like a dead object, Batman believed that Cyborg would not joke with him on this issue.
"Without any warning, it used to move occasionally, but irregularly and never for more than five seconds.
This time..."
Cyborg was a little hesitant, he knew that this thing was a super technology, Lynn said that this thing was "alive".
"What, tell me, Victor."
"It's like, very happy."
Cyborg still hesitated: "I'm not sure, but I think it's laughing."
"laugh?!"
Bruce looked at the dead silent box in front of him, and remembered what Lynn had said in his mind.
So, he decisively took out his mobile phone and contacted Lynn.
"I didn't take the things in your store...what...laugh...how is it possible, it's a ghost if it dares to open that door now."
Lynn let out a clear sneer: "Da Chao is still stuck there, why would he dare.
Not to mention that there are a bunch of little yellow men and little green men who are also... hiss...! "
"Lynn? What's wrong! Did you think of something, Lynn?"
After Batman heard Lynn's gasp, for some reason, his heart shrank.
Then, he heard Lynn on the phone saying faintly: "Those little yellow men and little green men... Maybe they are.
I told you to wear that ring, but you didn't listen..."
"Lynn, speak clearly and stop guessing riddles here!"
"The Green Lantern Corps may have been rushed by the slime, the next step..."
"What's the next step, tell me clearly!"
"The next step... that lump of mud should be coming to Earth. Old Bat."
"Ok?"
"You should get your men together by now. Also, you need to find that Green Lantern.
He is the focus of this question! "
