Chapter 119 The Secret Society of Super Villains
Lady Shangdu was still tied to the chair.
Her face was filled with fear, and although her mouth was sealed, she was still silently repeating a few words in her mind:
"I know what the Three-Body Problem is now."
"I want to warn the Justice League."
"Superman didn't do that kind of thing."
Unfortunately, she could only chant in her heart for the time being, unable to break free from the vines' restraints, and she was powerless to do anything about what was happening at that moment.
One segment of the future seen by Lady Shangdu is currently unfolding in Kandak, the land of "Black Adam":
Superman's heat vision pierced through Doctor Light's head.
"No, I—I didn't mean to," Superman's eyes still glowed red as he left Dr. Light's body lying limply on the ground.
"Dr. Light?"
Courtney Whiteman, who was at odds with "Catwoman" from Earth 0, looked at the still-smoking body of the Light Museum, her voice filled with doubt.
Not only her, but everyone present couldn't believe that "Superman" Clark had killed someone without a word.
"Superman killed him."
Steve Trevor, the leader of the Justice League of America, seemed to be muttering to himself, recalling their conversation before they set off for this place.
A dozen minutes ago, next to the stealth jet of the Justice League of America.
"The Justice League is heading towards Kandak, and it's our duty to drive them out."
Amanda Waller, the government's plenipotentiary agent over superhumans, a high-ranking member of the "Sky Eye Society" handling superhuman affairs, the warden of the superhuman prison, and the leader of the Suicide Squad, said.
"But the Justice League of America isn't ready yet, Waller."
Holding the information on each member of the Justice League, Steve hesitated for a moment before speaking.
Amanda Waller is a short-haired woman with slightly dark skin and a slender figure who looks exceptionally capable.
Moreover, the words she spoke were equally concise and efficient:
"This is a golden opportunity, Steve. This is our chance to expose to the public just how out of control the Justice League is."
"To force the Justice League to do something to you and to arrange your respective opponents."
With the documents in his hand, Steve reluctantly but helplessly walked into the jet fighter waiting for takeoff. All the members of the Justice League of America had arrived, including the new member "Dr. Light".
At this moment, Dr. Guang had not yet put on his helmet, revealing a slightly aged, middle-aged face:
"The Justice League has saved the world countless times, and they have Connors' support behind them. Even our formation is inseparable from Connors."
"I don't think his purpose in helping Amanda form the Justice League of America was to fight against the Justice League..."
"It's about being able to help them when they need it. We should go there to support them."
Steve stopped Dr. Light from continuing:
"Please stand firm, Dr. Guang."
"No!"
Dr. Guang ignored the advice and became even more agitated.
"My wife always says that as long as we are of one mind, we can solve any problem. Now we should go to Kandak to help the Justice League."
As he spoke, he waved the Justice League member "Firestorm" that Steve had handed him:
"But now, even our respective opponents have been chosen for us?"
Holding the Justice League's "Green Lantern" file in his hand, Simon Buzz, the "Lantern" of the Justice League of America, said:
"The newcomer is right, Colonel Trempher."
"I'm not a fan of the Justice League, but they're definitely not bad guys," Green Arrow chimed in.
Steve had a headache, but he had no choice but to obey orders from his superiors:
"We received direct orders, and I didn't expect things to get this tense. The Justice League must have a very good reason for going to Kandak. This mission is not going to be easy for us."
Having remained silent, the "Mars Manhunter," seated at the very front of the jet, maintained a stern expression as he refuted the opinions of everyone else in the aircraft:
"I didn't expect it either, but you're wrong. Ever since the incident where the monster Thompson controlled Superman, causing widespread panic around the world—"
"We were formed to fight the Justice League."
"Mars Manhunter" remembers very clearly that when "Monster Thompson" controlled Superman, Batman first showed the superheroes the methods he used against his fellow Justice League members.
This included Martian Manhunter himself, who was a member of the Justice League at the time.
So, on Connors's advice, Martian Manhunter left the Justice League after shining brightly in the "Monster Thompson" incident and almost saving the world.
He then joined forces with Steve Trevor, the first human male to land on Themyscira, to form the "Justice League of America," backed by the government's Big Eyes organization.
Unlike the other members who were recruited later, Martian Manhunter was very clear that the purpose of the Justice League of America was to fight against the Justice League.
Bringing his thoughts back to the present from a dozen minutes ago, Steve Trempher, the leader of the Justice League of America, turned to look at "Mars Manhunter".
He agreed with the alien's claim.
The Justice League of America was formed to prevent similar situations from happening, and now that "Superman" has killed someone, it's time for them to fulfill their responsibilities.
"Mars Manhunter" raised his fist, and his freely transforming body grew sharp bone spurs, mercilessly aiming at "Superman" Clark, whose eyes were bloodshot.
The Justice League's "Flash" faces off against the Justice League's "Shockwave," "Green Lantern" battles "Lantern," and "Cyborg" attacks "Stargirl"—
The battle erupted with a deafening roar. Amidst the flying dust and rocks, the shrunken "Atomic Girl" was scrambling for cover.
She has completed her temporary task.
"Atomic Girl" is a member of the "Crime Syndicate" from Earth-3, and is a triple agent.
She couldn't possibly participate in this battle between the Justice League and the American Justice League; Atom Girl only wanted to protect herself.
There were two other people who, like her, did not participate in the battle.
Billy Shazam stared blankly at the two sides suddenly locked in a chaotic battle, momentarily forgetting the idea of scattering Black Adam's ashes on the Kandak Plains.
The other person who did not participate in the battle was Connors, who was sitting in a wicker chair, holding up a cell phone and broadcasting what was happening in front of him to the world.
While broadcasting live, Connors reached into his trench coat pocket and rubbed the coins inside.
Even without looking, Connors knew the shape of the coin.
A coin with Pandora's box engraved on its face.
The words carved around the Pandora's Box represent another organization established by Connors outside the Justice League of America after he came to Earth:
The Super Villain Secret Society.
