182. Attracting the Attention of the Villains.
After witnessing the downfall of the most powerful mber of the League of Villains, everyone fell into silence.
For a long while, no one spoke until Pietro finally broke the silence.
"Although she was really disgusting, she did have a point. The impact of this event is too great for us to continue hiding. It won't be long before others start focusing on us."
As he spoke, Pietro and Kara both turned to Alex, hoping he would make a decision and provide a course of action.
"It's just magical energy, and most of it was Lorelei's divine power. They won't know what happened here. I should be able to erase our traces," Alex pondered for a mont before speaking slowly.
"But Osborne and his people are all dead. Everyone knows sothing is wrong here. If they can't find us, they will go to great lengths to uncover the truth. This might affect our next move, right?" Kara asked, a bit worried.
"Indeed. That's why we need to find a scapegoat, or rather, sothing that can attract their attention. As long as Red Skull and his crew are too preoccupied with sothing else to bother us, our goal will be achieved," Alex said, rubbing his chin.
"But where do we find such a person? Soone who can attract the attention of all the criminals would have to be incredibly powerful. If such a person existed in this world, they would have shown up long ago, not waiting for us to find them," Pietro said, frowning.
Hearing this, Alex's lips curled into a slight smile. "You're right; there's no such person in this world. But we can 'create' a group of them."
"Create?!" Pietro and Kara were both stunned. They looked at Alex in confusion, as if they didn't understand what he ant.
"This world needs 'heroes,' and villains need 'heroes,' too. So, let's fulfill their wish."
Alex slowly took out a Batarang from his pocket and placed it in front of Pietro and Kara.
"Rember this? I don't know if the person who used this is still alive, but if we can create a 'Justice League' in this world, that person will definitely risk everything to find us. It's a win-win situation."
"The Justice League? The superhero team my brother and Batman created?" Kara's eyes lit up.
Hearing this idea, Pietro's eyes also widened, and he couldn't help but nod.
"It makes sense. This way, everything in Osborne City can be blad on a non-existent organization. Everyone's attention will be focused on the Justice League, and we can go underground while also drawing out other cross-world travelers, avoiding the need for us to search for them."
The idea was sound, but its implentation posed a challenge, making Kara look up at Alex.
"But the problem is, it's not easy to pull that off. Red Skull and his crew aren't fools. Fooling them won't be easy. If they see through your magical illusions, what then?" Kara asked.
Alex smiled slightly. "I understand your concern. Simply fabricating a lie isn't enough. The key is to mix truth with falsehood. A superhero team suddenly appearing in this world doesn't make sense, so I need help from other worlds."
"You an..." Pietro suddenly grasped the critical point.
Alex nodded and continued, "I still have the suits you used in the Flashpoint Universe. Bruce's materials are top-notch. There's a big difference between the two universes, and Kara's Kryptonian suit is an alien product. Using these to set a trap, they won't be able to resist."
As Alex explained the plan, he retrieved the suit Pietro had modified using the resources from the Batcave from his magical space. The suit still bore traces of Batman's classic, long-discontinued version. A green glow flickered over the suit, quickly restoring it to its original state—the Bat-suit.
However, since it was a long-discontinued product, the suit had a very retro feel, lacking even basic bulletproofing. It was practically no different from those cosplay outfits seen at comic conventions. But for Alex, this was enough. He didn't want to use magic to modify the suit because doing so would undoubtedly attract the attention of Doctor Doom. If he rely restored it, there would be no special magical traces left behind.
And with Doctor Doom's abilities, it wouldn't be difficult for him to realize that the suit didn't originate from this universe. After resolving these issues, the matter of Osborne City's control beca another challenge.
Now that the League of Villains had been dismantled, the city was left without a leader. If Alex and his group didn't manage this situation, the city would soon be devoured by other forces, and the people living there might end up worse off than before.
Alex had no intention of following in Wolverine's footsteps. Since they had already conquered a city, they needed to hold onto it firmly. Thinking of this, Alex exchanged glances with Pietro and Kara before they simultaneously turned to look at the Blood Baron, who was still sucking the life out of Absorbing Man's neck.
Due to being enchanted by Lorelei's magic earlier, Absorbing Man had fallen into a state of unconsciousness. If he were younger, he might have been able to break free from its influence quickly. But now, he was too old, giving Blood Baron a perfect opportunity.
In the past, Blood Baron would have broken his teeth trying to bite through Absorbing Man's skin. But now, the mindless Absorbing Man had beco a feast for him. Feeling Alex and the others' gazes, Blood Baron shuddered. He turned his head, thinking they were displeased with him for drinking blood, and innocently spread his hands.
"Don't look at like that. They're villains, aren't they? These people have done countless disgusting things. They all deserve to die. That's what you said!"
"Relax, John. I don't care about your dietary habits, especially after I just 'ate' a monster sashimi myself," Alex said with a smile.
"So, what do you an?" John asked, licking the blood off his teeth.
"Do you rember our agreent? You have to work for , and now I need you to help with sothing big."
For so reason, seeing Alex's smile made John break out in a cold sweat.
