The aliens who were picked up by Superman at the beginning

Chapter 162 Magic Gathering

Rachel wasn't idle either.

Through Zatanna's introduction, Rachel not only met the wizards who joined the Justice League, but also many reclusive magic masters.

With the Justice League, a powerful organization comprised of superheroes, and Zatana's endorsement, the taciturn magicians, after realizing the threat posed by Trigon, provided Rachel with many fresh ideas for strengthening the sealing magic.

Through constant practice of new spells, meditations, and array techniques, Rachel was finally able to unleash a small portion of her ever-vigilant magic.

This allows Rachel to express more of her emotions without having to live in fear every day as before.

Li Zhen squeezed every last drop of her time out of her busy work schedule, and while she was busy with her regular job, she followed Rachel around visiting various places, and surprisingly managed to infiltrate the world of magic.

At first, Zatana was quite averse to Li Zhen's clingy nature, which made her want to follow Rachel wherever she went.

"The magic community doesn't welcome Muggles. What you're doing will not only ostracize Rachel, who's just joined, but it will also ruin my reputation."

"Who said I'm a Muggle?"

Li Zhen smiled calmly and released the basic fire magic that Rachel had once taught him.

Zatana's stunned expression as she watched the fireball spontaneously combust at Li Zhen's fingertips was truly remarkable.

"If I can create a fireball, I can actually be considered a magician."

"No? Where did you get your magic from?"

After learning about Li Zhen's past grievances with the Greek gods, Zatana finally understood why the Justice League required them to build a multi-dimensional magical defense network day and night.

"So you're the one who caused all this trouble?"

"—Your conclusion is so arbitrary and biased."

Considering that it was the existence of the magical defense network mainly built by Zatana that reduced the number of times the God of War and the Goddess of Conflict appeared, Li Zhen was quite patient with Zatana's offenses.

"I'm not worried about having too much debt, and I'm not burdened by too many skills. I don't need the authority of the gods for now, but I can always learn some tricks to use magic and divine power."

Li Zhen's magic power comes from the golden apples of the Olympian gods. As long as the golden apple tree has not been uprooted, Li Zhen's daily magic power, though limited, can continue to be used indefinitely.

Similarly, so too are the divine power and the power of conflict within him.

This is why, after the initial establishment of the magical defense network, the God of War was unwilling to show himself, while the Goddess of Conflict was willing to lower herself to join the secret society of super villains just to stir things up.

Because the source of Lee Jung's divine power and authority is Eris, as long as Eris lives, Lee Jung is essentially living on her and sucking her blood.

It doesn't hurt, it's just a constant feeling of nausea.

As Li Zhen learned more about the magic world and gradually realized this, she began to wish for the first time that her enemy, the Goddess of Conflict, would live a little longer.

He didn't want Eris's power; he just wanted to disgust her.

Having convinced Zatana, Li Zhen put away the fireball and asked the two with a grin where they were going to have a magic tea party today.

"Serren City, Doctor Fate's Magic Clock Tower."

Zatana casually gave the address, then noticed that the smile on Li Zhen's face gradually disappeared.

Looking at Rachel with a hint of curiosity, the girl, who had become much more cheerful recently, gave Zatanna a helpless expression.

"He once mentioned to me that when he first arrived on Earth, he was antagonized by Doctor Fate because of some past experiences."

Oh?

Oh ~

Zatana then looked at Li Zhen with a mischievous grin.

"Looks like someone won't be able to attend the 'proper magicians' gathering today."

Rachel then stepped forward and tugged at Li Zhen's clothes.

"Are you still going?"

Just as Zatana was about to say something sarcastic, Li Zhen simply snorted coldly.

"Go ahead, why don't you go?"

Zatana was dumbfounded once again.

"Hey! If you two start fighting, which side should I help?"

Li Zhen made a snapping motion with her knuckles, and amidst the crackling sound, she gave the uneasy Zatana a somewhat sinister, playful expression.

Zatana didn't get a specific reply from Li Zhen. Frustrated, she scratched her hair and hesitated for a long time before reluctantly taking out a golden cross-shaped life talisman.

This is a keepsake given to her by the Doctor of Fate, which allows her to initiate a portal to the Doctor of Fate's magic tower anytime, anywhere.

Normally, only those of the same kind or juniors who have been approved by the Doctor of Fate can obtain this Life Charm. Its function is not only to participate in magical gatherings hosted by the Doctor of Fate, but also to be used for emergency evasion when encountering life-threatening danger.

They received the protection of Doctor Fate.

In the subtle golden light, Zatana and Rachel disappeared one after the other.

Li Zhen loosened her fist, which she had been deliberately showing off with. Looking at the golden light that was about to disappear in front of her, she pondered briefly, then activated her magic power and stepped into it.

As the light faded, Li Zhen found herself inside the magic tower that Doctor Fate had hidden outside the real world.

The tower I vaguely saw in Salem last time didn't reveal the vastness of its interior space. I thought it would be a cramped and small place, but it turns out that the area of ​​just the first floor is comparable to the largest bar and nightclub in the metropolis.

The brick walls, with their distinct lines, are adorned with a variety of strange and unusual items. The floor is covered with a crimson carpet, which feels soft and warm even when stepped on with shoes.

Golden light flashed continuously around Li Zhen, and some strangely shaped humanoid life forms appeared near him.

Some have three heads and six arms, some have dark red skin with a scaly texture, and some are even headless medieval knights with eerie blue flames rising from the seams of their armor.

Li Zhen quickly located Rachel and Zatana and was about to approach them when she was drawn to two familiar figures.

Li Zhen had met both of them.

Among the representatives previously appointed by the United Nations, there was the old black elf who was said to have lived for ten thousand years, and Zhou Zhanxie, who had a neutral appearance and voice.

However, they were not wearing the formal suits they wore at the meeting that day. Old Black's body was covered in green runes that emitted a continuous glow, and he wore a red cloak over his shoulders.

Zhou Zhanxie.

This guy was dressed in a bright yellow robe with black stripes along the edges, giving off a strong sense of the Maoshan style from a previous life's Lam Ching-ying movie.

Upon closer listening, the content of their conversation shocked Li Zhen's worldview.

Zhou Zhanxie was complaining to Dr. Misty.

"Recently, my Amazon store has been receiving negative reviews from the same account. They say that the Chinese paper money I sell has no magical power at all, and it almost caused them to die in the underworld."

Dr. Mist wore a kind smile.

"Didn't you explain to him clearly that paper money and talismans are two different things?"

"Does this even need explaining?!"

The resentment on Zhou Zhanxie's face intensified.

"I only price them at thirty dollars each! You want a talisman with real magic power when it's so cheap? What are you thinking?"

Paper money?

The kind of offerings burned at gravesites for deceased relatives? The kind where you burn a whole bunch at once?

A single sheet of paper money dares to sell for thirty dollars?

Li Zhen looked at Zhou Zhanxie with some dread, thinking that this fellow countryman was someone who should be hanged on a street lamp.

As he spoke, Zhou Zhanxie took out his phone and glanced at it, his resentment growing even stronger.

"Here comes another negative review. Seriously, don't these online stores have any reporting channels to protect their owners? I really want to tear this guy named Constantine's mouth apart. He can still swear so rudely despite having so many banned words!"

Oh, the one who almost died in the underworld was Constantine.

That's true, Amazon should definitely create a channel for reporting customer accounts.
