I, V, Gotham Legend

"I see. She is also one of the candidates for your superhuman idol group, right?"

"So far, she has indeed demonstrated great strength. She is also a seasoned warrior with rich combat experience." Batman snorted a few times, not out of disdain, but just instinctively when he jumped.

"I've never seen any news about her before, let alone heard of a female warrior fighting. How do you know so many details?" Valerie asked.

"It's simple." Batman over there moved with the sound of the wind, as if he had caught something. "I'm fighting her in real combat."

At this moment, on top of a tall building in Washington, Batman was holding a rope with both hands, as if he was trying to test his strength. However, even though all his muscles were tense, his feet were still pulled by the rope and slipped.

At the other end of the rope, Wonder Woman, dressed in a martially dignified manner, held the lasso with one hand, her face full of interest.

10. Wonder Woman

The night in Washington is much cleaner than that in Gotham, and the moonlight shines directly on the city.

Batman's feet were already against the parapet of the tall building. The only reason he hadn't been pulled down was because the heroine didn't really use much force.

Wonder Woman's pupils widened, and she shouted directly: "You are also a warrior, why did you kidnap those children?!"

Batman knew what Warrior Woman meant, their fight here was a complete misunderstanding.

While Batman was investigating and closing the case of his childhood friend, he discovered a human trafficking industry chain through a series of clues.

On the surface, this matter has nothing to do with Gotham, but since it has been found, Batman will definitely not ignore it. He followed the clues all the way to Washington.

It was tonight that, after a series of clues, he found a group of children who had not yet been sold. At the same time as he found these children, he met Wonder Woman who also came to investigate.

Warner Bros. mistakenly thought that Batman was the one who kidnapped the child, and since Batman himself was not sure what kind of person Warner Bros. was, they started fighting.

This was a tortuous and exciting battle, which started from the human trafficking warehouse and went all the way to the rooftop. The incident happened suddenly, and Batman was completely unprepared for Batwoman and was always at a disadvantage.

The current stalemate is entirely due to Heroine's increasingly relaxed offensive and Batman's combat experience.

Batman's hands were entangled by Wonder Woman's rope. He was thinking of saying something to get some information from Wonder Woman, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he instinctively told the truth: "I have nothing to do with the kidnapping. I am here to save these children."

Hearing Batman's words, Wonder Woman showed an expression of "as expected". She flicked her hand and the noose was pulled off Batman's hand.

Although it is true, do you believe it?

Batman was slightly surprised, but he immediately realized that there might be some mystery behind Wonder Woman's noose.

"Can that thing make people subconsciously tell the truth?" Batman asked from a distance. He and Wonder Woman were standing on two buildings, facing each other across the street.

"The Lasso of Truth will force people to answer only the truth." Wonder Woman said confidently, posing as if ready, and then jumped up in one step.

She crossed the street and landed in front of Batman.

"I am Diana, the warrior of the Amazons, the future queen!" Wonder Woman stood in front of Batman and proudly announced. "Brave warrior, I apologize for my rash attack on you."

Batman felt a little uncomfortable with Diana's slightly archaic self-introduction, but he silently nodded to accept the apology.

At the same time, the small door behind them leading into the building was suddenly opened, and a blond man in a suit appeared in front of them. He looked sweaty and very tired.

"Diana! I finally caught up with you... President Miles is still waiting for you..."

"There is still half an hour left before the meeting time. We still have enough time. When it comes to honor, Amazons never break their promises," the heroine announced, straightening her back.

"Modern people's social etiquette is very troublesome..." The man walked to the two of them awkwardly. He looked at Batman embarrassedly, "Sorry, my name is Steve, and I'm an executive appointed by the government to help Diana integrate into modern society... I'm sorry to have caused you a lot of trouble. You are Batman, right? I've heard of you, a famous superhero."

"Superhero! It seems that you are very famous in human society. They crowned you with such a glorious title!" Diana shouted admiringly.

"Wonder Woman, we just need your help with something." Batman's white eyes looked into Diana's eyes.

"Wonder Woman? I said my name is Diana." But Diana became fussy about some minor details.

Steve sighed, and his tone was like he was petting a cat: "Wonder Woman is an honorable title. It represents everyone's respect for you."

"I see." Diana nodded, then turned around, stepped on the eaves of the building, and proudly announced to the sky: "From now on! I am Wonder Woman!"

"..." Batman looked at Steve silently.

"I'm sorry... As you can see, Diana has always lived in a place called Paradise Island and has no idea about modern society."

Once Diana officially represents Amazon and establishes diplomatic relations with the US government, these will no longer be secrets, so Steve said it without any burden.

Batman had no choice but to nod: "I need to borrow Wonder Woman. There is a disaster from the universe spying on the earth. All mankind is in danger. We need to unite superhumans."

"This is very difficult. We have to meet the President of the United States tonight." Steve said very embarrassedly.

Diana dropped out to fight the human traffickers, and had already wasted a lot of time.

"It doesn't matter. I'll go chat with those leaders and come back to you soon." Diana suddenly turned around and said.

"The sooner the better." Batman nodded.

"Wait, the meeting to establish diplomatic relations between countries won't be short, there will also be interviews and dinners afterwards..."

"We can do it anytime, didn't we? Something important is about to happen to all of humanity, and attending the meeting already represents respect and etiquette." Diana waved her hand and decided on the next schedule. "It's settled. When I come back... I'll leave those children to you to find heroes."

With that, she waved goodbye to Batman and followed Steve out of the building.

Batman watched the two gradually disappear in the background and silently tightened his helmet: "How do you feel? V."

"She's like a fledgling little tiger. It's quite unexpected. I thought she had come to America before World War I..." Valerie once again realized that the few DC knowledge she knew from movies and marketing accounts in her previous life was not completely reliable. "Do you think she really knows about Apokolips?"

"Don't underestimate her." Batman looked down at his hands, "We'll meet in half an hour."

"To Washington?" Valerie said with some disdain. "It's so tiring. Who knows when these aliens will start a large-scale attack again. Why don't you all gather at my secret base?"

"How do we get there?" Batman asked bluntly.

"I'll have Superman take me to your place to repair a teleportation device, and then teleport directly to my secret base." Valerie said, rubbing her temples. "The name 'secret base' sounds so low-class. I'll call it the Crystal Palace."

"It doesn't seem more classy."

"That's quite sentimental, okay? You...well, you don't understand." Valerie was very melancholy.

Feeling that there was nothing more to talk about, the meeting was temporarily adjourned here. They turned off their communications and sat in their chairs as if they were taking a break.

"By the way, do you have the contact information of Martian Manhunter?" Valerie suddenly looked up and asked Superman.

"What a pity no... Ron's imitation skills are superb, even for me it's hard to find who he's impersonating," Clark replied.

He seemed to take pleasure in his companion's ability to render him helpless.

"Okay, I'll ask a hacker to hack into the military database and see if we can find Ron's identity... maybe he'll come to us on his own initiative?" Valerie said, touching her chin.

"You said something very dangerous in just a few sentences." The Flash was the most surprised, "But it feels like a Hollywood movie, so exciting."

Valerie stood up suddenly: "Okay, Joe, has the spaceship arrived yet?"

"It has stopped at the square of the Crystal Palace." The recorder on the table nodded with a click.

"Okay." Valerie stood up from her chair and walked around Barry's room, asking, "Is there any free space in your house?"

"What are you going to do? To be honest, I rented this house." Barry had a bad feeling.

"Add some furniture for you." As she said that, Valerie chose her target and stood in front of the TV in Barry's living room.

She pulled out a bunch of glowing materials from her pocket and used a technique that no one could understand to build a box the size of an electric fan.

"What is that? How did you do that?" Barry was shocked. He tried to use the speed force, but still couldn't understand Valerie's movements.

"I installed a teleportation device for your house. You will be on my spaceship for the next meeting later." Valerie said.

After several months of iteration, Valerie's teleportation device has made some progress, mainly towards miniaturization and quietness.

Although there is still a strong light when it is started, there is no harsh noise. Valerie installed one at Barbara's house while Director Gordon was on a mission.

"Is your spaceship the one that fired lasers in the sky before?" Barry stood up excitedly. "I've seen previous news reports. It appeared during the Kryptonian War and Arkham Asylum."

"You're as disgusting as an idol otaku now..." Valerie commented sharply. "But it's true. The Kryptonian spaceship is one of my more reliable trump cards."

"Yeah, when it was in my hands before, I could only watch the spaceship gradually fall into disrepair. I am very happy to see it shine with V." Superman also said with a kind smile.

After adjusting the parameters of the transmission device and making sure there was nothing wrong, Valerie looked up at the time and said, "There's still some time left. Are you hungry? I can cook."

"I'm impressed by the delicious food Ms. V made." Superman smiled.

He had only eaten Valerie's cooking once, and that was dumplings five months ago.

Flash also sat up straight, "As long as it's not corn... I really can't drink it anymore."

"No problem, it's absolutely delicious." Valerie made an OK gesture and walked into the Barry family's cafeteria...

……

While Wonder Woman was at the meeting, Batman dealt with the unfinished business that he had come to Washington to do in a swift and decisive manner.

In addition to human traffickers and abducted children and women, he also arrested several fugitives who had fled here from Gotham and handed them over to the Washington Police Department as soon as possible.

When everything was done, Batman stood on the roof of a building not far from the White House, looking at the White House from afar.

Not long after, Wonder Woman came out at the agreed time. She was incredibly punctual, never half a minute more or late.

There was a look of dissatisfaction on Diana's heroic face, and she seemed to dislike arguing with politicians at the podium.

Steve followed Diana with an embarrassed look on his face. He was still persuading the heroine to go back and continue.

As soon as Batman saw Wonder Woman come out, he jumped down from the tall building and slowly glided to the street lamp closest to Wonder Woman.

Batman deliberately made a noise to attract the attention of the two men.

"Hey, have you been waiting for us?" Diana's mood obviously improved when she saw Batman.

Batman didn't care what she talked about with the President of the United States. He glanced at the clock tower in the distance: "Almost there."

As Batman finished speaking, a blue light flashed, and Superman suddenly appeared between several people, holding a hovercraft.

Valerie opened the car door and greeted the people below: "Hi! Good morning!"

"For Americans, the time after the sun sets is morning?" Diana nodded thoughtfully.

Steve quickly corrected: "No, it's just that this person's concept of time is confused."

"Is that so?" Diana understood. She immediately looked up and warned Valerie, "An excellent warrior should know how to plan his time properly! Only in this way can he get sufficient training and rest!"

"You're right, I will go to bed early tonight." Valerie vowed this every day.

She said hello to a few allies on the ground and then returned to the car.

The base of the hovercraft spewed flames, broke away from Superman's supporting hand, and floated into the air.

Valerie opened the car door and said, "Come on up, the transporter is right here."

Batman nodded to Diana under the street light, and then was the first to jump onto the hovercraft.

Superman followed closely behind, floating until he was level with the car and got in the door.

Only Diana and Steve were left at the scene. Wonder Woman turned around and looked at Steve solemnly: "Thank you for your care. I know I have caused you a lot of trouble, but as a warrior full of honor, I must shoulder my due responsibilities."

"I understand." Steve nodded helplessly, "Be safe, Wonder Woman."

Diana smiled brightly, jumped up and jumped onto the hovercraft.

"Is he your boyfriend?" Valerie asked teasingly when she saw Diana getting into the car.

"What is a partner?" Diana really didn't know.

Seeing that she didn't seem to be lying, Valerie looked away awkwardly: "It's okay, let's go."

As he spoke, an electric fan hanging on the top of the hovercraft lit up with a dazzling white light.

When their vision returned to normal, they were already sitting in a room full of technology.

"The feeling of home." Superman closed his eyes and felt it.

"What is this? Helios' lantern carriage?" Diana looked around curiously.

Batman felt it, then nodded in approval: "The dizziness is not that strong anymore."

"Of course, I'm always improving." Valerie raised her little head proudly.

NO11. On the other hand

Having walked the distance from the transport room to the main control room so many times, Valerie was already familiar with the route.

They opened the door of the main control room and saw Aquaman and the Flash, who had changed into his battle suits, sitting face to face.

Aquaman would visit Valerie's secret base every now and then, so it was not surprising that he appeared here today. Before Valerie left, she even specifically instructed Joe and Barry to tell them about the Metahuman Alliance when they met him.

Aquaman was very kind-hearted. He agreed to the invitation without asking any questions. At this time, he was sitting at the table, looking at the Flash opposite him with hope.

The Flash didn't look at him, but stared at the ice cream in his hand with an embarrassed look.
