Chapter 208 Inorganic Organic

The blue beetle circled the entire watchtower before finally scanning out the location of the food storage.

When Blue Beetle piled up a bunch of emergency food on the conference table, Luther, who had been lying by the table, immediately perked up and pounced on the food like a hungry tiger.

Kara snorted disdainfully as she watched Luther stuff bread into his mouth.

"No need for that, Kara."

Listening to the faint sounds coming from the other side, Li Zhen could also picture in her mind Luther wolfing down his food.

"Humans are like this: under extreme conditions, they will starve to death if they don't eat for seven days, and they will die of thirst if they don't drink water for three days. This has nothing to do with how much a person has achieved in other fields."

Kara didn't respond, but turned away and stopped looking at the annoying bald man.

Luther was probably starving. He tore two pieces of bread into his mouth in one go, then tore open a can of food and, without even looking at what was inside, dumped it all into his mouth.

Luther chewed a couple of times, trying to swallow the food in his mouth, but because he hadn't had any water for a long time, his throat mucosa was severely lacking in lubrication.

After struggling to swallow for a long time, his face almost turning purple, Blue Beetle kindly opened a bottle of Pepsi Pure Water and handed it to him.

After taking the bottle and gulping down several mouthfuls, Luther finally managed to swallow all the food with great difficulty.

Looking at Kara with her back to him, and hearing Li Zhen's voice coming from the blue beetle, Luther, who had barely filled his stomach, finally had time to start thinking, his eyes darting around.

Having obtained enough energy to ensure his survival, Luther abandoned his previous ravenous appearance.

While listening quietly to Kara and Li Zhen's conversation, he kept his eyes glued to the food pile and pulled out a package of refrigerated cooked chicken breast.

Luther gently tore open the packaging and stuffed the chicken breast, which should have at least been heated in a microwave or air fryer, directly into his mouth.

The fat still clinging to the surface of the chicken solidified into a white, waxy solid, which stuck to Luther's lips as the chicken was pushed into his mouth.

Once he had finished his protein intake, Luther finally stopped eating. Although he was still feeling hungry, his willpower was strong enough to overcome it.

After wiping the white grease from the corner of his mouth with his middle finger and licking it clean—a far cry from his previous image of a wealthy gentleman—Luther finally spoke to Kara's retreating figure.

"Now, can you tell me about the current situation?"

Kara turned around and looked at Luther quietly without speaking first.

Luther looked Kara up and down, a glint of wisdom flashing in his eyes.

"It's no surprise that the Justice League is in big trouble right now. I know you hate me, but sometimes, special circumstances require special treatment—"

Kara remained silent, then turned and waved to the blue beetle.

The latter walked over to Kara in a few steps, and after standing still, Li Zhen's voice came from behind the mask.

"That's certainly your style, Luther. Looks like you want to negotiate?"

"certainly."

Although it was the first time Luther had heard Li Zhen speak, it didn't stop him from judging from Kara and Blue Beetle's attitudes that Li Zhen was someone capable of making major decisions under the current circumstances.

The fact that the opposing side was able to send Superman's kin, who had recently arrived on Earth, to the Watchtower to find him immediately after the Justice League was almost completely wiped out.

Therefore, there is a high probability that the Justice League will fulfill the promises made by this person afterward.

Even though he is not a member of the Justice League, he definitely has a good relationship with the Justice League.

Once Luther had a few ideas in mind, he immediately guessed Li Zhen's identity.

"So you're the mysterious alien who took Doomsday into space and teamed up with Superman to defeat him?"

Although Doomsday's real designation at Luther's lab was the incomplete Subject Zero, after being imprisoned in the Watchtower, Luther was still able to learn what the outside world called the subject through the news he was occasionally allowed to watch.

Doomsday—such a domineering and dangerous title was something Luthor readily accepted and found easy to use himself.

"Your humanism is indeed as rigid as the rumors suggest."

Li Zhen casually retorted, then quickly got to the point.

"I believe you know about the world patch. This crisis originated from a product that you designed and created in another world."

Luther's eyes flickered slightly.

"Yes, I received memories of Luther from another world, and it's no exaggeration to say that the level of danger he displays in certain ways is sometimes astonishing."

Luther's brow furrowed slightly.

But the Justice League isn't made of clay, and regardless of which world Lex Luthor is in, most of the inspiration for designing weapons comes from the idea of ​​fighting Superman.

There are very few games that can silently drag the entire Justice League down with them, even considering the memories of Lex Luthor from both worlds.

Li Zhen didn't have time to let Luther show off his intelligence and slowly figure out what exactly had defeated the Justice League.

He told Luther the answer directly.

But Luther immediately slammed his fist on the table and stood up.

"The Amodrome virus? That's impossible. Even Superman shouldn't be able to be infected by it. To me from another world, the Amodrome virus is a failed product that was sealed away five years ago!"

"So the actual situation may be somewhat different from what you expect."

Li Zhen wasn't too surprised.

The viruses currently spreading in Gotham City have indeed deviated somewhat from the original story. After all, Tim had previously deduced that the force that released the virus was someone else, not Red Hood Jason, who is currently infected zero.

"We have obtained detailed data on the virus, and we will find a way to deliver the data to you later."

Perhaps due to the unexpected developments and answers, Luther hadn't even had a chance to put forward many of the conditions he had prepared, and was just frowning as he pondered.

"This is unreasonable. The Amodrome virus has a weakness: it will be inactivated at temperatures below -112 degrees Fahrenheit. However, both Superman's cryogenic breathing and Mr. Freeze's cryogenic gun in Gotham City can create environmental conditions far below this temperature."

Li Zhen ignored Luther's mutterings and, before ending the call, casually asked a question that had always been on his mind.

"How did you—your other self—create the Amodrome virus?"

He was genuinely curious about this thing.

The Amozo robot is a machine; its essence is metal, which is inorganic.

However, the Amodrome virus has some of the actual viral protein structure, but it incorporates organic components.

No matter how much of a physical education student Li Zhen is, after arriving on Earth from Witrum, her level is still a world of difference, a level that can be completely overwhelmed.

Just the fact that he can build intergalactic spaceships with his bare hands means that even without superpowers, he could make a living as a professional aerospace engineer on Earth.

There's no end to improvement, right? If it were possible to cultivate physics, magic, and technology simultaneously, Li Zhen felt that she wasn't entirely without the qualifications to give it a try.

Luther didn't react at first, and it took him two or three seconds to come to his senses.

"Oh, Luther from that world salvaged the remains of an Amodrome robot, extracted a special active enzyme from the remains, and used it to cultivate the Amodrome virus."

'

""

Li Zhen's eyebrows almost jumped up.

Do you want to hear what you're saying?

I can't understand a word of it.

Active enzymes were extracted from the robot's remains.

It's like the technology and scientists in this DC universe have stopped adhering to basic principles, haven't they?

After silently rolling her eyes, Li Zhen dismissed her overconfident idea.
