chapter 0343 part 3
The two looked at each other. Bruce Wayne spoke: "The Mother Box's strength can open Boom Tubes. We can't guarantee that those hell demons won't use these Boom Tubes to cross over to the Human World. Compared to Parademons, those hell creatures are probably even more terrifying!"
"Then I have no method!" John Constantine spread his hands, indicating he was powerless.
Bruce Wayne continued: "According to the intelligence brought back by Arthur and Diana, Steppenwolf and the Parademons he leads can open Boom Tubes from the other side of the Mother Box. Even if we hide the Mother Box at the ends of the Earth, we can't hide it from them! I don't think there's anywhere more secret in the World than Atlantis and Themyscira (Paradise Island).
The Mother Box could be found even when hidden there, so we need to think of a method. John, does the magic you possess have a way to seal the Mother Box, preferably so it can't open Boom Tubes!"
John Constantine scratched his head, thinking about the magic spells he knew and if any were suitable for this situation. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck him, and he thought of the small black flags the Dimensional Evil God Tang had given him.
"I do have a few magic weapons in my hand that can seal the Mother Box, but I haven't had these things for long, and I don't understand the Boom Tubes opened by the Mother Box, so I can't guarantee it one hundred percent!"
"We'll make two preparations. Victor, I need you to bring out the third Mother Box and let John use magic to seal and conceal it!
Diana, Arthur, and Flash, you'll come with me to the Parademons' Lair. We'll look for an opportunity to decapitate Steppenwolf and retrieve the remaining Mother Boxes!"
"Oliver, you stay with John and Victor and protect the Mother Box!"
Bruce Wayne gestured towards Green Arrow. Oliver Queen followed his gaze, noticed Constantine beside him, and nodded in understanding.
"Beep beep beep—"
Inside the dim Batcave, Bruce Wayne, who was assigning the mission, suddenly heard his comms alert go off.
Bruce Wayne pressed the black pen in his hand. On the screen in front of him, a surveillance footage appeared. It was a scene near a high-rise apartment building, where a group of thugs armed with submachine guns and handguns were fiercely battling a woman.
The woman, who had two pink pigtails, had her makeup somewhat smudged, and her black eye makeup extended down to her cheeks.
Facing the armed thugs, she held a metal baseball bat in her hand and brutally smashed the heads of the thugs one by one.
"Harley Quinn!"
Bruce Wayne recognized the woman in the video at a glance – the former doctor at Arkham Asylum, now Harley Quinn.
As for the opponents fighting Harley Quinn, he also recognized their origin. "Penguin's Subordinates, why are they fighting!?"
Just as Bruce Wayne was filled with doubt, in the video, facing the difficult Harley Quinn, one of Penguin's Subordinate Gunmen directly shouldered a rocket launcher.
"Oh! Bruce, are the Thugs here in Gotham City so well-armed? They're even using rocket launchers for a robbery!"
Green Arrow Oliver Queen looked at the two sides fighting on the big screen, his gaze lingering on Harley Quinn: "A cool girl!"
In the surveillance footage, Harley Quinn, whom Green Arrow called a cool girl, flipped and leaped up, landing directly on a Gunman's neck. Under her short shorts, her fair, long, and strong beautiful legs exerted force, and with a snap, she twisted the Gunman's neck clean off.
"Boom!"
Facing the incoming rocket, she ducked and rolled under a nearby car. The rocket hit the wall of the apartment building, instantly erupting in firelight.
"Before we go find Steppenwolf, I think I have some matters to deal with first!"
Bruce Wayne watched the surveillance footage with a serious expression. Several ghastly white skulls wrapped in black mist flew out from under the car, aimed at the Gunmen holding firearms, and spewed out streams of black smoke.
The Gunmen immediately clutched their necks with their hands and fell down, their faces pale.
Seeing these skulls, Bruce Wayne immediately thought of Star-Lord releasing those undead creatures.
Suddenly, he turned his head to look at Constantine, his gaze filled with intense scrutiny.
John Constantine whistled, his gaze lingering on the surveillance footage with considerable interest. He didn't meet Bruce Wayne's gaze, but his left hand couldn't help but fiddle with the white bone prayer beads he held.
"I knew it, that guy definitely has a backup plan. Is this little girl his follower in this Reality World!? I must find a method to get rid of her, or if he finds out I took the benefit but didn't do the job, I'll be screwed!"
Bruce Wayne didn't see anything on Constantine. He greeted everyone and asked Green Arrow and Wonder Woman to accompany Cyborg to retrieve the Mother Box.
He, on the other hand, put on his batsuit and prepared to go to downtown Gotham City.
An hour earlier, Harley Quinn, who lived in a high-rise apartment in the Rose Garden of the Diamond District, climbed off her sofa.
Suffering from a hangover, she sat on the sofa and zoned out for a full half hour before she could barely remember what happened last night.
Last night, because she was dumped by that bastard, she went to get drunk at the Bar run by that fat Penguin. As a result, a thug there was showing off his string of beads.
That white string of beads seemed to have a special magic power. She and another woman both took a liking to it, and as a result, the two of them got into a fight.
"The string of beads, right, the string of beads!"
Harley Quinn felt her pocket and pulled out half a string of white jade beads from it. This was her spoils of war from last night, even though she only managed to grab half.
The other half ended up in the hands of that little bitch who fought her for the things.
While cursing, Harley Quinn held the half-string of orbs in front of her and examined them closely. She vaguely remembered that the orb had told her last night.
As long as she could get a few things, she could exchange them for anything from it, including eternal youth,
Uh, Harley Quinn only remembered eternal youth. As for immortality and supernatural power, they were secondary to her.
The orb also gave her a list, which listed things like Superman's blood, Mother Box... Harley Quinn felt she must have drunk too much last night. How could an orb talk? She casually placed the orb she had fought so hard to get last night onto the table and planned to go to the Bathroom to wash up.
Suddenly, Harley Quinn stopped. She heard deliberately light footsteps outside the door.
