2186 Side Story: Fantasy Journey 27

It wasnt until Master Wayne and Diana returned that Barry finally broke out of this happy atmosphere. Um, wheres our new teammate?

Master Wayne shook his head and didnt say anything as he walked over to the table.

Diana explained, Weve talked, but he needs more time.

Luke put down what he was working on and walked to the table. Hm, it was probably because Bruce is too good-looking too.

Everybody rolled their eyes.

Master Wayne couldnt help but say, I never showed my face. Diana went in alone.

Feeling like it sounded like he was pa.s.sing the buck, he added, Its not us. Actually, he still finds his current situation a little hard to accept.

Luke poured him a cup of black tea. Okay, Bruce, relax. At the very least, Barry was very obedient. With one call, he came running.

Obedient Barry looked at him glumly.

Unfortunately, no matter how he looked at it, he was the baby brother in this team, and could only endure it.

In particular, when Luke took out the tea and snacks and was clearly about to start their regular tea session, Barry instantly appeared obediently in the chair next to Luke.

Diana walked over and naturally enjoyed Lukes tea service.

Master Wayne and Barry had already enjoyed this treatment; naturally, she didnt mind enjoying the same service from a teammate.

After a few mouthfuls of tea, Master Waynes gloomy mood disappeared. After all, few things went smoothly Hm, Barry didnt count.

Looking at the curious Barry, he felt that it was time to tell him everything.

After all, they had failed to rope in the other two, while the three in front of him were the fixed members. They couldnt just rely on something like tacit understanding anymore.

If a team didnt lay ground rules in the beginning, and things went astray in the future, they wouldnt even get the chance to redeem themselves.

Luke agreed.

It was better to come up with some lofty catchphrase at the beginning. Even if it was difficult to carry out in reality, or there were unspoken rules, it was still better than doing their own thing.

Of course, Master Wayne was aiming his warning primarily at Luke and Barry. The battle G.o.ddess had been on the side of justice for almost a century; there was no need to worry about her becoming corrupt.

Luke was rich and powerful, while Barrys superpower was practically incomprehensible to ordinary people. If they really turned evil, they would be even more terrifying than those lunatics in Arkham.

Thankfully, Luke was a civilized and easygoing person. Not only wasnt he resentful, he casually helped to translate some of what Master Wayne was saying for the newbie, Barry.

Master Waynes head hurt a little. Although thats what I meant, your explanation is too unseemly.

But he couldnt deny it, in case Barry really did misunderstand.

In any case, Im not the one whos making it sound that bad. Whatever! Master Wayne could only comfort himself that way.

n.o.body had any objections. Luke even raised his hand. I agree.

Diana simply smiled and waved. Same here.

Seeing that, Barry raised his hand high. Same here.

Master Waynes feelings were a little complicated. It was really convenient to have a professional sidekick or prop.

But seeing how considerate this sidekick was, it was clear that the latter knew how he thought, which wasnt a good thing.

However, in the face of a powerful enemy, Master Wayne didnt have time to think about this for now. He could only proceed with the next phase.

He swiped the surface of the tablet, and a photo of an African-American man appeared on the monitor next to the table. Victor Stone, a talented young scientist. On the surface, he died in an accident, but in fact

He switched to another image, and a person with a mostly robotic face and one glowing red eye appeared. He probably became like this due to another accident.

Barry was enlightened. Thats really cool Hm, fine, thats too bad.

Master Wayne looked at him in agreement. Thats right. A bystander might think he looks cool like this, but it definitely isnt a great experience for him, which is why he isnt easy to deal with.

After introducing Failure No. 2, he switched to another image. It was of a wild-looking long-haired man with a black tattoo. Arthur Curry. Hes half-Atlantean, half-human. He can come and go freely in the ocean. He doesnt seem to like coming ash.o.r.e, but we should still have a chance.

Barry couldnt refrain from exclaiming wow when he heard this. He was quite curious about these superhumans. After all, the three people next to him just said that money was their superpower.

After all, given Barrys abilities and physique, he definitely wouldnt be their main player.

As a support member, he had plenty of time to watch from the side. In any case, he could figure out a lot of things in a second.

However, Barry still asked, Will we be fighting in the ocean? That might not be good for me.

Master Wayne shook his head. I dont know, but Steppenwolf isnt an aquatic being, and those Parademons under him would find it difficult to fight in the ocean as well. So, its very likely well be fighting on land.

Barry said, Hm, then, there should be a limit to what this Arthur Curry can do, right?

Diana said, Thats only if were battling in the ocean. In any case, hes an Atlantean Hm, fine, hes a mixed blood, but hes stronger than most superhumans.

As a demi-G.o.d, she naturally knew how exaggerated his overall abilities were.

He didnt need any training to fight, but if he did get training, he would be a powerful warrior at the very least. It wouldnt be a problem for him to beat up three to five of Master Wayne.

Barry nodded, his trademark goofy grin in place as he looked around.

He was suddenly stunned, and pointed to the skylight. Wow, thats your signal, isnt it, Bruce?

Everybody turned around and saw the image of a bat projected into the sky above Gotham. They could see it clearly even from the base ten kilometers away.

That was right, this was Commissioner Gordons standard turning on the light routine when something bad enough happened.

Luke stood up and said, Lets go. There are traces of Parademon activity in the city. Thats probably why Gordon is calling for you.

Both Master Wayne and Diana nodded and stood up.

Barry was fl.u.s.tered; he wanted to follow, but hated to part with the table of food.

His mind raced, and he disappeared, only to return with a big food pouch. He put most of the snacks into it. It would be a waste not to eat them. Each one costs more than ten dollars. Hey, wait for me. With that, he disappeared from the table.

Commissioner Gordon stood on top of the GCPD building and looked up at the Bat signal in the gloomy sky. He frowned.

It was another rainy night.

He couldnt help but put his hands in his pockets and huddle into his coat to block out the pervasive cold and dampness.

Suddenly, he saw something.

Director Gordon immediately knew that his good buddy, no, his old friend, was here.
