The aliens who were picked up by Superman at the beginning

Li Zhen originally didn't plan to play for long.

He was used to being busy, and he would call on Superman Supreme to go with him to visit a few magic masters around the same time.

Let's try to resolve those issues with the Hell Lord as soon as possible.

But the Justice League communicator in Li Zhen's arms rang for the first time in a long time.

This is unusual.

Well, it's not that the Justice League has been very peaceful lately, but rather that Li Zhen's communication privileges are rather special within the Justice League.

They followed a certain tacit understanding, such as those "minor matters" on Earth, which were usually not passed on to Li Zhen.

The Justice League still operates every day, but Li Zhen doesn't participate in those operations.

Conversely, when this communicator rings, it means that something big has happened.

This is a major event that would require at least the involvement of Lee Jung-il or other superhuman-level "experts".

After disconnecting the communication, Li Zhen released the game controller and stood up from the sofa with a complicated expression.

"I might need to go out for a while. Damn it, I thought all those troublesome things were mostly taken care of by now."

Just as he was about to say goodbye to Supreme Superman, Supreme also quickly put down the controller and looked at the communication device that Li Zhen had put back in his arms with great interest.

"I'll go with you. This game that's supposedly third on the leaderboard isn't really that great."

Li Zhen thought about it and did not refuse the emperor.

The two changed into their own uniforms. Li Zhen, considering that she might meet many superheroes at the Justice League, slightly toned down her flamboyant white vest.

However, when the two arrived at the watchtower within half a minute, they discovered that this emergency communication was not the big deal that Li Zhen had imagined.

There are no melodramatic villains about to destroy the world, or any kind of apocalypse that is about to arrive.

What was imprinted into Li Zhen's spiritual power was only a golden corpse.

The Justice League superheroes surrounded the corpse in three or four layers, but most of them looked bewildered.

Li Zhen turned back and gave Supreme Superman a look that said, "You stay where you are and observe for now," before walking towards the crowd.

The outer layer of superheroes spontaneously dispersed, allowing Li Zhen to walk to the innermost part and stand with Batman, Superman, Flash, and other key members of the Justice League.

Li Zhen recognized the corpse.

However, he wanted to understand the situation first.

"..."

Before he could even speak, Superman began his introduction.

Normally, it's Steel Bone who's on duty at the watchtower, but Kara happened to be there for Girls' Day, so Superman got to be on duty today, which is quite rare.

The body was discovered by Superman at the watchtower.

"When I took over from Cyborg today, this body hadn't appeared yet."

"It wasn't until 12:48 PM that I suddenly felt something was off about my biofield."

Superman, with a solemn expression, gestured towards the direction of the corpse.

"He just squeezed out like that, and when I arrived, I saw the body fall out of a strange crack."

After Superman finished speaking, The Flash immediately added his own comment.

"I went to check the location of the crack that Superman mentioned. It's a bit strange. Based on the spatial data left at the scene, the place that ejected this corpse should be a spacetime tunnel."

The Flash has a deep understanding of time portals. After all, long before the Justice League was formed, in the early years of his career, he had come into contact with time portals several times due to the characteristics of the Speed ​​Force.

In addition, the Central City Laboratory behind The Flash has also produced a large amount of research data on the Speed ​​Force and time travel, so Cyborg didn't have a chance to be used for analysis this time.

Finally, it was Batman's turn to summarize.

"I have reviewed all the 'extraterrestrial memories' obtained from the cosmic patch events submitted by all members so far, and no one recognizes the identity of this corpse."

Shazam, who had rushed over excitedly because the Justice League communications had been sent to him again, thinking he could fight alongside the "adult group" once more, pointed to the uniform on the corpse.

"But he's dressed like a superhero; villains usually don't dress so flamboyantly, right?"

Everyone present understood what Shazam meant.

If this is a superhero, even if there is no such person in their universe at present, theoretically there should be a few people who recognize his identity because of the memories brought by the cosmic patch.

But no one has ever seen it, which is quite rare.

Who is this? How did he die? Who killed him? And why did his body fall into their universe, and just happen to fall into the watchtower?

Li Zhen hesitated slightly, but he was also quite curious as to why none of the people present recognized this guy.

"His name is Golden Vanguard."

Superman Supreme, standing on the outermost edge of the crowd, had a sudden flash of interest. Of course, he recognized the corpse. Given his boastful nature, even though a group of superheroes said they didn't recognize the guy, he managed to suppress his urge to show off before Li Zhen spoke, just to see if Li Zhen could recognize him.

All eyes immediately turned to Li Zhen.

This time, no one teased him about whether he met someone from the Time Stream again, and the occasion wasn't appropriate either.

Everyone was waiting for Li Zhen to say her next sentence.

"His origins are rather complicated. Theoretically, he is from the 25th century, but he has indeed served as a superhero in many universes from the 20th to the 21st century."

The Flash reacted immediately.

"A time traveler?"

"Yes."

Golden Vanguard, whose real name is Michael Jon Carter, was born on December 29, 2442, in Gotham City.

He was a professional athlete in the 25th century, but his career was ruined by his involvement in gambling.

He eventually had no choice but to take a night watch job at the Metropolitan Space Museum.

Michael remained incorrigible, and his childhood visits to museums had instilled in him a deep fascination with the stories of historical superheroes.

Therefore, Michael once again gave up this hard-won job and stole equipment from the museum where he worked, which belonged to many "post-22nd and 23rd generation superheroes".

After some careful selection, Michael managed to cobble together a magnificent suit of armor from these outdated 25th-century pieces of equipment.

And with the help of the time-travel equipment belonging to Time Master Lip Hunter (the main captain in the TV series Legends of Tomorrow), they returned to an earlier time.

Before Michael could return to the "modern" world and commit his petty theft and speculation again, he encountered the assassination attempt on the president.

Michael, who harbors a deep desire to be a true hero, steps forward and stops the assassin.

He was personally awarded the title of "Golden Vanguard" by the President of the United States.

Michael, who was unremarkable and a complete failure in the 25th century, finally achieved fame and fortune. He began to enjoy the flowers and applause and immerse himself in playing a superhero.

And in the series of adventures that followed, he turned over a new leaf and became the true hero he had always admired.

It's worth mentioning that the Golden Vanguard wasn't someone who was placed in that position by the public's adoring gaze and forced to become a hero.

Perhaps this ingredient was present from the beginning.

But later, Golden Vanguard discovered that after inheriting the Time Master's time-traveling device, he also inherited various responsibilities related to time.

He began to dedicate himself to protecting the world from the shadows, fighting against monsters and enemies from all walks of life.

Furthermore, thanks to the Time Master's "Zeroing Device," every battle, fraught with wounds and peril, is ultimately erased by the contraction of time, remaining unknown to anyone.

His colleagues in the Justice League always remembered him as an arrogant, flamboyant, unreliable, and rather untrustworthy guy.

But Golden Vanguard, as if atoning for his shameful past, never defends himself or refutes, and is always a carefree and optimistic person.
