What bad thoughts can Batman have?

Chapter 224: Mechanical Superman’s trap and Batman’s preparedness
In a government conference room.

Captain Steve and Amanda Waller sat side by side to the left of the President.

General Swanwick sat alone not far from President Clinton's right hand, with his arms folded and his face expressionless.Two other generals in military uniforms sat close to the president. Compared to those martial lunatics who sometimes Waller would suspect that they had lost their minds, these two generals were the ones with slightly normal minds in the army. some people.

But now, everyone present looked very ugly.

On the big screen, a perspective was playing at the moment, which was Billy's brick-like locator.

At this time, the screen stopped at Black Adam's big face as he bent down to pick up the bricks.

All did not speak.

"Batman treated us to a good show." The president set the tone at the beginning: "But I think we have to make our own judgment."

"Mechanical Superman and Steppenwolf standing together doesn't mean anything." Colonel Steve said: "They might..."

"We have no evidence that Superman and Steppenwolf are connected." Amanda Waller said: "But the problem is..."

"This is not a courtroom."

Colonel Steve and Amanda had a perfect verbal coordination. They first put forward the hypothesis of innocence, then created the inference of guilt, and directly convicted the mechanical superman. Amanda gave the conclusion in a few words:

"If loyalty is not absolute, then it is absolute disloyalty. Although I don't want to believe it, this video may be corroborated with the information that 'Batman tells us that mechanical superman is not a good kind'."

But obviously, this is not what the president wants to hear.He also wanted to hear other opinions, so he turned his attention to the two generals beside him.

"I'm not a radical person." One of the generals paused and said, "Maybe there is something wrong with the mechanical Superman, but this does not prove that Batman is harmless."

"If he doesn't, we will be destroying our martial arts." Another general said: "At least for now, he still obeys our orders."

"But there is no guarantee for the future. A bomb that will explode at any time may not be as good as a slingshot." Amanda Waller said: "The sword stabbed from behind may be more dangerous than allies who refuse to let us participate in core things. Threatening."

"but……"

"There are no buts." Waller said: "One fact we have to admit is that Batman and his Suicide Squad are currently the most complete group of superpowers on the planet. While dealing with so many crises, the government cannot We should avoid too much quarrel with the other party, and in particular we should avoid all frontal armed conflicts."

"We can't have a direct armed conflict with them. Are we just going to watch them -"

"General, the reason why I say no direct conflict is not to protect Batman, but to protect ourselves..."

But at this moment, the president's cell phone placed on the table suddenly rang, interrupting everyone's debate.

The president picked up the phone, but paused instead.

"Your Excellency, who is calling?" Waller had vaguely guessed the target, but she did not say it directly.

Then he heard the other party's answer:
"It's Batman."

"Batman called me."

……

……

……

"Leave that Kryptonian, Batman."

A large speaker was installed on one of the tanks, and General Ayling's voice came from inside.

He is a representative of the government hawks and advocates taking tough measures and attitudes towards people with super powers who are outside the control of the government. On this point, his attitude is even more clear and extreme than Amanda Waller.

Amanda Waller is just an agent. She accepts orders and completes them. She does not express political demands, and she does not even harbor any ill will toward superheroes from a personal standpoint. General Arryn is completely different.

He was one of the "some people" in the phrase "some people in government have something against you..." that Waller sometimes referred to.

He is also the go-between who introduces Cyborg into the government system, and their relationship is similar to that of Colonel Steve Trevor and Wonder Woman, but perhaps closer.

Chen Tao quickly went through the other party's information in his mind.It was obvious that Robot Superman did not come to this area alone.Frankly speaking, Chen Tao originally thought that the US military's operational efficiency would be lower and that he would be able to finish things faster, so he would not confront them directly. However, since it was unfortunate, he was not unprepared.

"Don't even think about flying away, Batman." He heard General Arryn's voice on the loudspeaker: "Red sun weapons and kryptonite missiles are ready."

Chen Tao sighed. He saw the metal man John Coburn with countless mechas appearing next to ordinary soldiers and tanks one after another.

If only you were so tough against Darkseid.

Chen Tao shook his head.Although it's not impossible to force your way through, it's not necessary.

Frankly speaking, Chen Tao did not intend to conflict with the army here.

Just as Bain once fought against the army straightforwardly, but did not intend to destroy the city, wandering on the edge of government control, even fooling the government into conducting private vigilante activities, or stealing government intelligence is a matter of magnitude, and facing the army head-on Fighting and openly confronting other machines is another matter of another magnitude.

His relationship with the government has deteriorated due to the extremely egregious mother box counterfeiting incident. It would be simple and crude enough to charge directly into the enemy camp, beat up the metal man, then destroy those weapons and walk away, but...

Clang!
Without saying a word, Diana took out such a long sword directly in front of the densely packed American troops, and then let out an Amazon war cry:

"Soldiers, charge behind me, follow me..."

"You're a bit too extreme!" Chen Tao hurriedly stopped her: "You can't cut this!!!"

"We directly break into the enemy's position and capture the enemy general." Diana said: "There is no need to kill him. I put the sword across his neck and we can leave."

Chen Tao quickly brainwashed Diana and asked her to give up this dangerous idea: "Ah, you can't do this. This is the country's army, and we are superheroes."

"We are disciplined and law-abiding," he said.

He flew up and hovered in the air, looking down at the continuous army.

"Batman, I give you a final ultimatum, hand over the Kryptonians..."

General Eyring's voice was still ringing, but the President's phone was connected.

Then he called the president on the spot. "……OK, all right"

Soon, the president passed the release order, and Chen Tao didn't even need to waste any time. This was somewhat beyond his expectation.

After a while, the stinking-faced General Ai Lin slowly walked up to Chen Tao with a large number of soldiers, and said a lot of words.

Chen Tao didn't listen carefully. The general idea was that he was talking about what he had paid for this country, but no matter how much he paid, it had nothing to do with him.

He felt sleepy after listening to it, but in the end the talkative General Aylin got out of the way. Various tanks and mechas separated, and everything seemed to go smoothly.

Chen Tao greeted Wonder Woman, and Xiao Ke struggled to drag Super Girl behind him, who was still unconscious.

Diana asked in a low voice: "Is it solved?"

"Yeah." Chen Tao nodded.

"oh, I see."

What's the disappointment in this tone... Do you really want to fight with the government?

Chen Tao shook his head.

But suddenly he was a little curious: "But didn't you just think of asking Steve to do you a favor?"

Wonder Woman paused in her steps.

The Amazon female warrior was a little embarrassed and rubbed the hilt of the sword that was re-inserted into the scabbard and hung at her waist with her thumb.

Chen Tao quickly stopped worrying about this issue. Under the watch of General Aylin and tens of thousands of silent troops, they quickly walked out of the continuous military camp and came outside.

But Chen Tao was always a little absent-minded. Looking at Super Girl who was still unconscious, he felt that something was missing.

He stopped and looked back at the military camp.

Countless soldiers have set up camp here, and each of them has an extremely lively expression. They are completely real people and cannot be fake...

Chen Tao shook his head. When did he become afraid of Clayface?He is the only one who deceives people in this world. When will others deceive him?

But he still felt that something was wrong, that things were going too smoothly, as if he had made a phone call and solved the problem on the spot, as easily as opening a can and digging out the lunch meat.

If Cyborg Superman and General Arryn simply let him pass through so many armies, then what was the point of them doing so?

Arrange the army here to welcome him?
When Chen Tao wanted to understand this, he suddenly felt his head buzzing. He turned his head. When he and Diana looked at each other for the first time, he found that the Amazon Princess had also noticed this.

Silver-white particles circulated on Chen Tao's face in an instant, and the streamlined mask of a high-speed bullet replaced his half-covered face. The X-ray rays immediately swept towards the entire military camp.

An unobstructed view... an unobstructed view... an unobstructed view...

But soon, Chen Tao discovered an area where lead blocked his vision.

He grabbed Diana's arm and took her flying into the air, and the two of them disappeared in an instant.

boom! ! !
He was not in the mood to talk at all, and a sense of urgency was urging him, forcing him to open the box that was blocked by a lead plate...

When he arrived at the place, Chen Tao took a breath of cold air. Only when he finally arrived did he realize that this was not a box, it was just a temporary small house.

And inside...

"This can definitely kill everyone here."

Diana, who was standing next to Chen Tao, looked solemn as she looked at the huge bomb in front of her: "Even though I haven't used this weapon much, I know its power very well."

She stretched out her hand and tried to lift all the bombs by herself, but was immediately stopped by Chen Tao.

He stretched out a hand, with countless small metal locks protruding from the top, and carefully inspected the bomb's operating table for a while: "You can't move it, it will explode as soon as you move it."

Chen Tao frowned, and the next moment his head turned into an on-board computer, trying to activate the Metal Spirit's ability on the bomb.

buzzing buzzing...

It was useless. Chen Tao looked ugly. This thing was definitely not a product of the earth. It was mixed with too much Apokolips technology.

So he turned his head and said to Wonder Woman: "We have to ask General Aylin to mobilize his legions and leave here-"

"I disagree."

But before Chen Tao finished speaking, General Aylin's voice came to his ears: "The order I received is to station here, so even if the president orders me to evacuate, I will not pay attention."

Chen Tao turned his head and saw the general of an army appearing here.

The metal man followed him, and then a large group of mechas.There was a red glimmer in his eyes, and Chen Tao guessed that he had been controlled by the mechanical superman.

Chen Tao lowered his gaze.

The other party just wanted to wipe out all the troops here. He could guess now without looking that the information from the president and here should have been completely blocked, or at least temporarily blocked.

That way, from the government's perspective, no matter what happened, the result would be Batman alive and the army's bones piled up and their blood flowing.

This would certainly give many in government the perfect excuse.

So Chen Tao sighed and turned to look at Diana next to him.

"Sometimes I really don't want to use those despicable methods."

Then he looked at General Aylin and his mechas:

“But I’m usually prepared.”
