My Superhero Can’t Be This Jerk

"There is no Wonder Woman, no Batman, no Superman in this world."

Diana said in a low mood.

"Although there are rumors that Superman is still alive, that's just a lie. I've been to the Lonely Plains to investigate, and there's nothing but death and decay. I think that must be a lie to lead us out."

She is pessimistic about the future.

Although Eric knew the situation in the world was dire, he would not be as pessimistic as Diana.

"Diana, the Omega who rules the earth, whoever he is, I'm sure I'll find a way to defeat him. If he's based in Gotham, he's bound to be vulnerable. I know Gotham, I know The terrain and rules are clear there. Although I've never been there..."

Diana listened to Eric quietly, sighed, and stood up.

"Would you like to hear rumors? Eric, rumor has it that Omega was born and raised in Gotham, he may be a villain, but more like... one of your disciples."

Diana looked at Eric, and the expression on her face softened, "I have seen his fighting style, his logic of action and thinking, he is not like an ordinary criminal, but more like he has inherited some of your abilities. and disciples of logical thinking."

Eric was lost in thought when he heard Diana say this.

After a long while, he said slowly, "Diana, what do you mean...?"

"I mean the time has come, Eric. It's time to give the world to other gods and new heroes. But here, these people, need my protection..."

Diana didn't seem to want to see Eric's disappointed expression, and turned her face away, "Tomorrow, I will open a door to the underworld, I hope you can go with us."

"Underworld? You want to take these people to the underworld, Diana, but there are no fingers and fingers, it is the darkness of eternity."

Eric thought the idea was a bad idea.

"I made a deal with Reaper and he opened up an area for us where there will be some light."

Diana looked at Eric with a soft expression, "More importantly, everyone will be safe there. After we leave, we will close the door and never open it."

She seemed to be looking forward to Eric leaving with her, staring at him with burning eyes.

Eric fell silent.

Instead of answering this question, he slowly opened his mouth and asked another unrelated question, "Baron Winters, are Skye, Witch Boy, Black Alice, Trish and the others all right?"

"The Baron and his party escaped the initial riots in the Time Cabin, but when they faced Omega, they did not stand by. Baron Winters disappeared during the fight against Omega, Skye unfortunately died, Black Alice and Choi Xi was controlled by Omega and became a puppet. As for the witch boy Clarion, he was seriously injured and returned to the 'Ling Book Town' in the underground world to recover."

Diana seems to have been used to seeing the sacrifices of her teammates, and she said these words without much emotional fluctuation.

Eric was a little sad to hear the news of Skye's sacrifice. That cute and somewhat timid Air Elementalist died just like that?

Eric remembered that she had just come of age.

The mood became extremely heavy, falling down like a lead.

"Where is Lingbo Town?"

After adjusting his emotions, Eric asked Diana.

"A witch town on the outermost edge of hell, founded by descendants of the fallen Puritan magicians in Roanoke. We were able to make a deal with the **** of death, and the people there helped us a lot."

"...Sorry, Diana, I can't follow you to the underworld."

Eric's hesitant heart became firmer because of Skye's sacrifice.

"It's important to protect the people underground, but I won't let the rule of the evil one last forever. Whether it's for those who are left on the ground, or the heroes who die. Fight, take back the above world, I'm now sure what I'm going to do matter."

"Listen to me, Eric."

Diana's tone turned a little heavy. "You know I'll always tell the truth, Eric. The truth is that the outside world doesn't need to be saved, maybe it never wants to."

"But these people, they need heroes, new heroes. The world above is the battleground of the dead Batman. But down below, you'll be the Batman of the new age, so come with us."

Her words were sincere, and her heart was full of stirring emotions.

No doubt, Diana wanted Eric to stay more than anyone else.

......

Eric did not give an answer. After accompanying Diana to rest, he hesitated for a long time by himself, and returned to the ruins where the Justice League hall was buried.

Sitting quietly on the stone, thinking about the ins and outs of all this.

In the dark space, there is only the sound of gurgling water, showing the only vitality.

"Can you see clearly in the dark?"

A childish voice sounded from behind.

Eric looked back and saw a little boy in an old fashioned leather jacket standing behind him and asked curiously.

"what?"

The little boy's clothes were tattered, but his eyes were very sharp. He took a step closer to Eric, "You are Batman, right? People say you are him, so can you see things like a bat?"

When he said this, he was a little depressed. "My brother is very scared. The place we are going next will be dark and underground, so he is very scared."

"There's light on the ground, boy."

Eric stroked his blond tousled hair lightly.

"Ok!"

He sighed like an adult. "But I'm still scared. Forget it. I can't lie. It's me, not my brother, who is scared. You can teach us to see the darkness, right? Can you teach us?"

The little boy asked Eric hopefully.

"Bats...they don't really see in the dark. They use their voice, they use the echo, so they find their way."

Eric smiled and explained to the little boy.

"But......"

He showed a confused expression, "They don't allow us to make echoes below, it will disturb everyone."

"That's it~www.readwn.com~ Then do you want to try it?"

Eric gathered his hands into a trumpet shape, put them in front of his mouth, and shouted: "Are you ready? Three...two...one!"

"anyone there?"

The sound echoed in the black cave, constantly circling his ears.

"anyone there?"

The little boy also found all this interesting, and shouted after Eric happily.

The voices of the two continued to echo, accompanied by the little boy's laughter.

"Thank you, Batman!"

The little boy thanked Eric solemnly.

"I feel better, you'll be with us, in the dark, right?"

"Will do......"

Eric murmured softly.
