Chapter 1302 Troubles

 When Crisis on Infinite Earths just ended, global media swarmed into each hero and conducted in-depth interviews. The topic lasted for nearly a year before it was suppressed by new crisis events.

This restart of the multiverse will have no less of an impact on the DC universe than the last time, but most people on earth don’t know that the universe has restarted again.

The media is still crazy, but the focus of their attention has become "the unprecedented battle between Zhenglian and the secret society."

The well-informed media already know about the "Battle of the Tuning Forks" in the Arctic, an all-out war between superheroes and supervillains, and they are chasing the news.

When Harley and the others returned from the Arctic Galaxy, a group of reporters immediately gathered around them.

Generally, Harley only accepts interviews under two circumstances: either she needs to convey an attitude or a certain message to the outside world, or she needs to appease people's emotions in a crisis.

Now she has neither of these needs, so she has not accepted the interview requests from famous reporters.

But there are some people whose visits she cannot refuse.

For example, President Abel Tesla's eldest daughter and wife, and his lame wife and brother.

"Don't worry, they will be back soon, I promise." Harley promised with a firm tone.

Three days later she fulfilled her promise.

Adam Qixia personally used Zeta light waves to take the two of them back to the White House on Earth.

After receiving the news, Harley went to meet with several people in person.

Adam Strange, who lost his lower three limbs and left arm, has regained new limbs in a short period of time.

"It uses cyborg technology similar to Cyborg, but it is not a body of steel, but an organism cultivated with my own stem cells.

The RNA gene chain of a superpower was also added to the new limbs, and my current physical fitness is twice that of a normal human."

Xianyu proudly introduced his new body, and then Adam Wizard whispered to Harley with a coy expression: "But there is still a small problem with my body. Maybe only magic can solve it."

"what is the problem?"

"My reproductive organs," he blushed, and his voice became softer, "the function has almost completely disappeared, and the bionic limbs cannot be used, you see."

Harley took a few steps back with a look of boredom on her face, "Don't come to me for this kind of thing. You've also activated the Watchdog. Either go find the Voice of the Sky yourself, or go to the Justice League and find your teammates on the magic side."

Then she turned to Mr. President, who was hugging his family and wiping away tears, and shouted: "President Abao, how do you feel now? Have they humiliated or tortured you?"

"I'm fine, I have good food and drinks, and I can play video games. Except for the restrictions on personal freedom, it's almost the same as traveling to an alien planet." Abao said with a hearty smile.

Harry only looked at him briefly and believed that he was not forcing a smile.

Because this guy actually gained some weight, his skin is rosy and shiny, his eyes are bright and sharp, he is in great shape and in good spirits.

"In that case, I'll go back first." She was about to leave.

"Hey, don't go. You came here and didn't say anything."

Abao stopped hugging and crying with his eldest daughter, and quickly walked over and pulled Halli back.

Harry said: "What needs to be said has been said."

"What did you say?" Abao asked confused.

Harley explained: "If they have humiliated or tortured you, I will avenge you. You are the president and a representative of human civilization. To insult you is to insult the United States and humiliate all mankind."

Since you are fine, your face is glowing, and you have not been tortured, it means that they are sensible and have not gone too far, so I can go back with peace of mind."

Abao was a little touched. Several superheroes came to the scene, as did dozens of American politicians, even the former president and the current "Stink Man" were present, but none of them offered to seek justice for him.

"Lame Peng and I didn't know who the kidnapper was. We had just stepped out of the elevator when a gust of black wind hit us. We couldn't see, hear or shout, and fell unconscious.

We didn't see a single living person for the next few days, and the meals were all delivered by mechanical devices." He sighed.

Harry said calmly: "You don't need to know who they are, as long as I make sure you are humiliated, I will go to hell to catch a few demons who are proficient in curses.

Based on your memory and their breath on you, let them live but not die."

A layer of frost seemed to have fallen on the cozy and warm White House living room, the temperature suddenly dropped by ten degrees, and the noisy sounds were also frozen.

Especially the generals from the Pentagon.

Thinking of the Cadmus experimenter and director who had died suddenly, their bodies under their military uniforms trembled slightly.

"Well, that's not the case. We were rescued by Adam's Heroes yesterday. Both the Lann and Senagan governments sent representatives to greet us and gave us many gifts. Next, I plan to bring the United States and the two major civilizations together to officially

When we establish diplomatic relations, we will be friends." President Abao said sarcastically.

Lame Peng glanced at Harley, then quickly turned his gaze to Dinah, complaining: "What were you doing at that time? Why didn't you come to rescue us earlier?"

Dinah has even participated in Star Wars, which has tens of millions of people, and now she doesn't care about a "mere" Secretary of State.

She shouted rudely: "We were not idle. The battlefield was changing at that time. As a mediator, how could we leave our posts without permission?

The reason why you were kidnapped is that someone obviously planned to use you to blackmail Harley and me, and the earth, at a critical moment.

The greater our reaction and the more attention we show to you, the more dangerous you will be.

Because it is impossible for the earth to agree to their threats.

If they fail to achieve their goal, what do you think they will do to the hostages?"

Lame Peng wanted to say: We are the number one and number two big shot in the United States, why are you so firm in saying that you are not under threat?

But I can only think about this in my heart.

He could only continue to complain: "The original plan was to adapt to changes in the Lann-Senagon war and swing left and right to seek the best interests of the earth's civilization.

Well now, we have made so many plans, but we haven’t even had a chance to implement them.”

Dinah sneered and said: "You still have the nerve to say, who insisted on going to Lann Star at that time?

After the unrest broke out in the Senagan refugee camp, Harley immediately took us away from Rann and stayed in outer space to avoid direct contact with the two major civilizations.

If you all obey her request honestly, how could you be kidnapped?"

"If you don't go to Lann Planet and communicate with them, how can you seek benefits for the earth and all mankind?" Lame Peng said.

"Are you a primitive person who can't even understand secret video conferencing? And don't say it so grandly, especially if you say it's for the earth or humanity.

After you disappeared, the Lann people explained the situation to us in detail.

You left behind the bodyguards Lan En assigned you in the middle of the night and quietly went to Lan En Red Street to hang out until midnight. Then you returned to Lan En State Guesthouse in a drunken state, only to be kidnapped by a mysterious man."

"Ouch~~" As soon as Dinah finished speaking, the scene was in an uproar, and several famous scribes from the universe even took out their shorthand notebooks and quickly wrote down the words.

"It's not what you think." Abao, who aspired to become "the greatest president of the United States in the universe," became anxious. He waved his hands repeatedly and quickly explained: "We did go to the nightclub on Lane Red Street, but we were not looking for fun.

, but met secretly with Senagon's agents.

Although we went to the planet Rann, at that time Rann received tens of millions of Senagan refugees, and the refugees secretly formed underground organizations.

The leader of the organization has a great say in Senagon.

Since you are traveling between two major civilizations, of course you have to have contact with both sides.

But we stayed in the hotel of the Lann people and openly accepted their hospitality, so we could not openly meet the Senagan people.

That’s why we pretended to be a nightclub to entertain customers.”

"So half-hearted, hedging his bets, both sides have been offended, no wonder he was kidnapped," Louise muttered in a low voice.

At this moment, President Po's image in her heart has dropped from "an immortal veteran in Star Wars" to a bad guy with a bad brain.

The Speaker of the National Assembly also frowned and said: "Lan's technology is so advanced and it is on someone else's territory. You will definitely not be able to hide the fact that you secretly met the Senagang envoy."

"Well, we have also considered the possibility of being discovered, but as a diplomatic envoy with the support of the Galaxy Admiral, there should be some privileges, right?

Even if he was discovered, Lan should turn a blind eye.

Theoretically speaking, it is not illegal to meet the Senagang representative openly.

Who would have thought that they would be so arrogant and unreasonable?" Abao sighed.

From the moment a group of Earthlings began to speak "truthfully" about Lann, Adam Strange felt uncomfortable.

At this moment, he finally couldn't help it and defended Lann loudly: "Mr. President, what you just said seems to imply that the person who kidnapped you was the Lann government.

This is an extremely wrong idea and should not be spoken out by you.

It was Eagle Man and I who personally went to the Gru system, broke into the camp of the Zeguo Mercenary Group, and rescued you.

The personal and material evidence is conclusive that it was the mysterious man who hired Zeguo mercenaries to kidnap you.

The Zeguo mercenaries are a well-known group of villains in the galaxy, and there are many fugitives from Lan and Senagon, so they were able to sneak into Lan and kidnap the two."

The White House official was dissatisfied with his behavior of directly yelling at the president, and was about to scold him, but President Abao was all smiles. Regardless of everyone's surprised and incomprehensible looks, he bowed and apologized repeatedly, "I'm sorry, Mr. Strange, I said the wrong thing."

Already.

In fact, I made my attitude clear from the beginning - I don't know who kidnapped me.

What I just said was mainly to refute Black Canary’s slander against me.”

Can you be disrespectful? After Sadas died, Alena inherited her father's position as chief scientist. In other words, Adam Qixia is now the "royal husband" of the Lann people, and his status is much higher than that of the president of the United States.

Dinah was angry, "What slander? When they were investigating your disappearance case, in order to prove to Harley that they had not failed to take good security measures, the Lann people directly sent the video of you fooling around with the alien woman, making Harley and I dumb.

I am speechless and have no face to blame them for their poor protection."

"Fake, is there a video? We are indeed being monitored." Abao's face turned green. "Misunderstandings are all misunderstandings. In order to pretend to be more natural and realistic, I have to use my old body to serve the United States and the earth."

Make a huge sacrifice."

Seeing the lame Peng beside him, he had an idea, pointed at his Secretary of State and shouted: "It was all his idea. I was originally going to stay on the Archimedes airship, but he wanted me to stay on the Lann-

He is the one who increased the presence of the US government at the Senagon Cultural Center.”

He talked a lot and put all the blame on Lame Peng.

Lame Peng's face was flushed, but he couldn't speak a word.

There were several well-known celebrities at the scene, and no matter how hard the White House tried, the altercation that took place that night was still exposed.

Then global public opinion exploded.

"Shit, that was a Star Wars between two civilizations. Tens of millions of people died! At such a serious moment, the dignified representatives of the earth's civilization actually went to the nightclub to have fun. This also caused the earth's diplomacy to be completely incompetent during the entire war.

It’s just unbelievable how it works.”

"Don't talk about representatives of Earth's civilization. We Europeans don't want to be represented by such things. Well, we only want to be represented by Black Canary and Galaxy Admiral. They did a great job."

"Don't talk about you Europeans. I, an American, despise them. They are a disgrace to mankind and a maggot to the United States."

"I just can't figure it out. The Star Wars between two advanced civilizations is not more exciting than a nightclub. If it were me, I would stay in the cockpit of the Archimedes airship at all times and watch the entire war without skipping a beat."

"They want to fight the alien girl themselves. Well, if it were me, I would also like to try it, but only after the work is completed. Humanity's first official interstellar diplomacy ended in such a ridiculous way. It is so embarrassing.

"

Kent House.

Louise clapped the tablet in her hand and sighed: "Now that the president's scandal has dominated the attention of global public opinion, the Justice League can take the opportunity to deal with its internal problems."

Clark, who was wiping his hair with a bath towel, was stunned for a moment, then turned around and said, "Are you deliberately leading public opinion?"

Louise shook her head and said: "It doesn't count as guidance, it just convinces Perry to suppress the tuning fork battle, the battle between Zhenglian and the Society and other related news."

"How did you convince Perry?" Clark asked curiously.

"To be honest, once these news are exposed, they will inevitably trigger public discussions about the 'hero's crime' and the split between Zhenglian and Zhenglian.

The pressure on superheroes will be very high at that time.

Already in trouble and suffering heavy casualties, you are likely to be unable to recover and fall apart.

Now that the pressure is on the White House, you have a precious breathing space to say, how do you plan to resolve those messy conflicts?"

Louise rubbed her forehead and said distressedly: "Perry and I have carefully discussed the situation of Zhenglian and Harley's suggestions. It seems that according to what she said, establishing a 'hero classification system' is the best option.

Superheroes can choose pure light and justice, or they can choose to uphold justice and walk in the gray area."

Clark smiled strangely, "Now Harley has changed her mind. She openly admitted that she had made mistakes before, and she also supports us in insisting on pure justice."

"How is it possible? This is not her style." Louise looked in disbelief.

Clark said sternly: "Because her realm has improved to a higher level with the improvement of her vision.

She discovered that the Justice League is the embodiment of "absolute justice" in the bright universe.

Therefore, we have the responsibility to ensure the absolute purity of our belief in justice.

When we were chosen as the cornerstone of the universe, we became obligated to the universe of light, and no matter what we think or what she thinks, nothing can change this reality."

"What are you talking about? Why can't I understand a word?" Louise said blankly.

Clark glanced at her Paradise Mountain tablet. The screen was still on, and she could see the news headline "Po is not worthy of being President of the United States."

He pointed to the news on the tablet and said: "Why did the people react so violently? If an ordinary person did something like him, would they be criticized?"

Louise didn't understand what he meant, but said: "But he is not an ordinary person, he is the president of the United States, represents the United States, and claims to represent the earth and all mankind.

As the first president to visit a higher civilization in the galaxy, he has the responsibility to maintain his image, at least not to embarrass the earth."

"Well, no matter what his character and habits are in private, when he takes the presidential oath with his hands on the Bible, he must be responsible for this identity.

The same goes for the Justice League superheroes.

When we put on the uniform and declare ourselves a superhero, we must also take responsibility for our identity.

And our responsibilities and obligations are not determined by ourselves, just like the president cannot delineate the scope of his own powers and obligations.

The president's responsibilities come from the Constitution.

The responsibilities of superheroes also come from the law, the law of the multiverse, which is the law of the universe and the original will."

Louise was thoughtful at first, and then asked doubtfully: "The laws of the universe require you to be absolutely righteous? It sounds very fantasy. How do you know that the universe can speak?"

"The message that Harley heard from the original consciousness of the universe when she held the hand of creation. The universe we live in is the 'Light Multiverse', and one of the cornerstones of the Bright Multiverse is 'Absolute Justice'."

"Other heroes agree with this 'absolute justice'? What will Zhenglian do next? There is not much time left for you." Louise asked.

"Let's put aside our differences first and deal with the secret society. After taking down Luther, the big boss of the society, and several giants, all the superheroes gathered to participate in the reconstruction of Harley's 'Heroes' Paradise'.

By then, I hope we can all purify the concept of justice in our hearts and completely resolve conflicts and problems."
