Marvel's Superman

"I have to admit, since last time, two months ago, when you refused to join me, I didn't expect to hear from you again."

As soon as Cyborg saw Batman, he made an ambiguous opening remark.

Frankly speaking, if we ignore him being a cyborg, he was a big burly man who was over 2 meters tall, two-thirds of his body covered with flesh, and the rest were metal parts.

Judging from what he said above, Barry might think that Dr Wayne had some secret affair.

Just like his son, Bruce Wayne.

The whole Justice League knew privately that Batman and Gotham's criminal Catwoman, as well as the master assassin's daughter Talia, had been entangled in an affair.

Wonder Woman and Aquaman also made a bet on this, and Barry was also involved at that time. The bet was paying for the other's meals for two days.

Superman kept silent after expressing his opinion that 'I don't think Bruce will ever get married in his life'.

Barry was more optimistic about Catwoman. He thought that the female thief, who also liked to go out at night, was quite suitable for Batman's schedule.

Unexpectedly, the guy quietly had a son with the master assassin's daughter, Talia.

This made Barry lose his bet, and for two days in a row, he had to dine on the lab's sandwiches and instant coffee.

"Victor, you look taller and stronger."

Barry collected his thoughts.

This was the case with extreme speed. His brain ran too fast, and it was too easy for him to think too much.

People usually chatted with him but could never keep up with his rhythm.

Therefore, he was the chatterbox of the group, talking to himself every time he met an enemy.

"Do we know each other?"

Cyborg wondered as he looked at him, looking at this fresh face, wearing a red uniform, with a lightning bolt on the chest.

'Batman never teamed up with anyone, always going at it alone. When did he get these two people beside him?'

Cyborg's gaze passed by the Flash and turned to Luke, who was silent.

Compared to the harmless, not even a little aggressive, Barry Allen.

The first impression of the latter was that he was indestructible and powerful.

Just standing there, he was very oppressive.

This may be the passive aura brought on by the body of steel.

"No, we have never met."

Luke hooked Barry's shoulder to stop this guy from chattering.

"He is ... Gotham's newcomer, with super speed, called the Flash."

Cyborg had a strange expression, but he didn't take it to heart. His focus was only on Batman.

"You didn't ask me to come here to introduce two new people and talk about old times, did you?"

Cyborg silently looked at Thomas Wayne. With superheroes and super-criminals becoming more and more active, the government needed a strong regulatory department.

In his opinion, no one was more suitable for this role than Batman.

Someone who made plans with no omission never mixed personal feelings and always kept a clear view of the bigger picture...

Of all the superheroes he knew, only Batman could fulfill the above requirements.

"Do you still lack a think tank position in your team?"

Thomas Wayne glanced at Luke and Barry and made his intentions clear.

"I can either join or help."

"Really?"

Cyborg's dark face revealed a shocked look.

'Batman could actually change his mind?'

'This is really surprising!'

"But--"

Thomas Wayne appreciated Cyborg's expression for a few seconds and uttered this annoying phrase.

"I want to build the team the way I want, the way I see fit, and I will select the men."

Cyborg's eyes narrowed. He seemed to understand Batman.

Then, he looked at the two newcomers next to them.

'Do you want to form a team?'

"No problem."

Cyborg nodded and agreed.

What he needed were Batman's mind and his appeal.

Gotham's Dark Knight, in fact, enjoyed some fame among superheroes and super-criminals.

Having him would save them a lot of effort in the future.

Why do super-criminals revere Batman?

It was easy to understand.

Just like the Joker, the Riddler, Two-face, the Penguin ... and other Gotham villains. They were all Batman fans.

These super-criminals were keen on fighting Batman every day, scheming with each other, and then being confined to Arkham Asylum for the Criminally Insane for a vacation.

That was the fun part of life!

If Gotham didn't have Batman, those villains would soon get bored and try to move. 𝐟𝙧ℯ𝑒𝒘𝐞𝒃𝗻𝒐ѵ𝘦𝑙.com

"So, starting with the Flash and ... Luke, they're the first two members of the team."

When he saw the Cyborg's quick response, Batman probably figured out that this wasn't his opponent's bottom line and that there was room to keep asking for more.

"In addition, funding for activities, logistical staff, and scientific research ... are all essential."

Cyborg considered it a moment and nodded in agreement.

Anyway, after the formation of the regulatory department, under the control of the military, the funding was also provided by the Pentagon.

For them, the annual military spending of over 100 billion dollars was spent; adding another billion dollars was no big deal.

"I can meet any request you make on behalf of the government."

The White House and Pentagon won't care about spending if they could curb the crimes committed by metahumans, which were rising sharply every year.

Seeing that a consensus had been reached, Luke interjected at the right time and asked, "Since I joined the government's department, will I have access to some information?"

"What do you want to know?"

One of Cyborg's eyes flashed red, and various data streams scrolled rapidly.

He was connected to the Pentagon and the data centres of various intelligence agencies. He could read those confidential documents at any time.

"About the meteorite that fell in the Metropolis 30 years ago."

Luke was going to rescue his Kryptonian cousin Kal-El. The guy had been detained by the military since he was a child, and he was never exposed to the sun.

According to the image in his memory, he was probably the thinnest of all the Supermen. Instead of strong muscles, he looked like a dried pork chop.

"Are you interested in that?"

Cyborg was a little surprised. He looked at Batman.

"We are now a team; this requirement shouldn't be too much."

Thomas Wayne didn't know why Luke was interested in the disaster in the Metropolis.

Barry's eyes flickered aside. He captured keywords such as Metropolis and meteorite.

"Impossible ... Clark!"

Unsurprisingly, the Flash thought of Superman.

"Okay, I'll do a search."

Cyborg's mechanical eye was constantly flashing with red light, and the screening work was completed in less than half a minute.

"Yes, according to the secret archives of the Pentagon, it's actually ... a spaceship, which was transferred to the underground base in Metropolis. A team of tens of thousands of people are working on a project there -- 'Project Superman'. That's what the military calls it."

"There's still a part of the data that was destroyed. They seem to have found something else in that spaceship -- Subject One."

Cyborg didn't hide anything and shared the information he knew.

"Thank you for your help."

Luke smiled and exchanged a look with Barry. He understood what he meant.

There was no doubt that Superman was probably being held in a secret base in Metropolis.

Half an hour later, when Cyborg left, Batman looked at Luke and Barry with a fierce gaze.

"Do you two have other plans? Or, are you going to do something behind me and Cyborg's backs?"

Thomas Wayne's observation was quite acute.

Just through Luke's abnormal questions and Barry's expression, he could see their thoughts.

"Uh, Dr Wayne ..."

The honest Flash would inevitably feel a little confused and speak hesitatingly when confronted with such a question.

"Dr Wayne, the reason why I looked for you was actually to find a relative."

Luke's mental quality was much better than Barry's. He could speak nonsense with a serious expression.

"I have a cousin who landed on the Earth in a spaceship a long time ago."

"I arrived here much later than he did due to cosmic navigation problems and lost track of his whereabouts."

Barry suddenly realised and made a surprised expression of 'I was right!'.

"You're Clark's cousin! I knew you had the same strong body, the same cloak and armour, and the same Heat Vision!"

Thomas Wayne sighed. If it weren't for his son Bruce, he really didn't want to get involved with these two guys.

From the Flash through time and space to the alien who came to earth ... In just one day, his cognition was constantly refreshed.
