- Global Reincarnation: Only I Know the Plot
- GROIKTP Chapter 436
When Chen Ye arrived at Wayne Manor and saw Batman, he noticed that Bruce Wayne seemed to be injured. Bruce’s right hand was wrapped in a thick cast, suspended by a sling.
Seeing Chen Ye, Bruce immediately complained, “Buddy, where have you been all this time?”
Chen Ye didn’t answer directly but instead asked, “Bruce, what happened to you?”
“It was Steppenwolf!” Wonder Woman, Diana, stepped forward and explained, “He took the Mother Box.”
Chen Ye wasn’t surprised by this outcome.
When he had handed the Mother Box over to Batman, he knew that Bruce wouldn’t be able to protect it.
Chen Ye patted Bruce on the shoulder and said, “It’s okay. Now that I’m here, we’ll get it back.”
Diana added, “The bigger problem is that Steppenwolf has already collected all three Mother Boxes, and we’re running out of time.”
“And there’s something even worse,” Bruce said with a serious expression as he looked at Chen Ye. “To prepare for you, Steppenwolf has resurrected Clark Kent.”
Chen Ye was taken aback. “Clark Kent? Superman?”
Bruce nodded gravely. “Yes, and whatever Steppenwolf did to him, Clark is now under his control.”
Hearing this, Chen Ye was thunderstruck—Superman had been resurrected by Steppenwolf and had become an enemy?
This was a complete disaster!
In the world of the *Justice League*, the only person who could truly pose a threat to Chen Ye was undoubtedly Superman.
Based on Murong Chuixue’s assessment, Superman’s power level was easily at the S-Class.
As for Chen Ye, his current strength was at the peak of A-Class, nearing S-Class, but not quite there. Facing Superman would be a huge challenge.
Although Chen Ye could likely activate his indestructible demon body and overpower Superman, that form only lasted for 20 minutes. If he couldn’t deal with Superman within that timeframe, it would be Chen Ye who ended up dead.
The more Chen Ye thought about it, the more frustrated he became. He never expected that his interference would lead the storyline to spiral so out of control. It had completely collapsed…
Luckily, the hidden mission wasn’t mandatory. Even if Chen Ye couldn’t complete it, the system wouldn’t punish him.
…
Chen Ye knew that the Mother Box indeed had the power to resurrect the dead. In the original storyline, Superman had been revived and temporarily went rogue, overpowering the entire Justice League team. If not for his girlfriend showing up, even Batman would have nearly been killed.
So, it wasn’t impossible that Steppenwolf had resurrected Superman and gained control over him.
Recalling the original story, Chen Ye asked, “Bruce, Clark has a lover, Lois Lane. Maybe she can bring him back to his senses.”
“We tried, but it didn’t work,” Bruce said grimly. “Steppenwolf turned Clark into a mindless monster. If Diana hadn’t temporarily held him off, many innocent people, including Lois, would have died.”
Chen Ye rubbed his forehead, feeling a headache coming on.
He hadn’t expected that so many major events had occurred on land while he was away…
Truth be told, this situation was partly his fault.
By intervening and stealing the Mother Box, which Steppenwolf had been determined to acquire, Chen Ye had revealed his strength, prompting Steppenwolf to revive the Kryptonian to aid him.
In short, Steppenwolf’s actions were entirely aimed at countering Chen Ye.
Chen Ye exhaled heavily and said, “If Lois can’t bring Clark back, for the safety of Earth, we’ll have no choice but to kill him.”
“For the safety of Earth?”
That sounded noble, but really, it was for his hidden mission.
“Ronan, are you confident?” Bruce quickly asked.
Having fought Superman before, Bruce knew just how powerful Clark was. Now, with him turned into a mindless being driven solely by instinct, he was even more terrifying…
Chen Ye replied, “Don’t you have kryptonite weapons? Kryptonite is a huge weakness for Kryptonians. If we use those weapons, we can kill Clark.”
“Ronan, I didn’t expect you to know about that too?” Bruce gave Chen Ye a deep look before getting to the point. “But Clark is different now. He’s surrounded by other Parademons, and getting close enough to use the kryptonite weapons will be difficult.”
“Don’t worry,” Chen Ye said confidently. “I can hold him off.”
With that reassurance, Bruce nodded and agreed to the plan.
“Diana,” Bruce suddenly called out, “they’ve found something new!”
The group moved to Bruce’s underground base.
From a distance, Chen Ye spotted a man in a red suit—the Flash—and a cyborg whose body was mostly made of metal.
“Ronan, let me introduce our new allies!” Bruce said, stepping forward. “This is Barry, Barry Allen. He’s incredibly fast.”
Chen Ye smiled as he extended his hand to the young Flash. “Hello, Barry. I’m looking forward to working with you.”
Barry Allen shook Chen Ye’s hand and, with curiosity in his eyes, asked, “So, you’re the famous Ronan? I heard you’re super strong. What’s your superpower?”
The kid was a bit talkative…
“I’ve got a few… You’ll see soon enough.”
Bruce then pointed to the man working at a computer and introduced, “Ronan, this is Victor Stone, also known as Cyborg. His body is linked to the Mother Box. He’s our key to finding it.”
“Nice to meet you, Victor,” Chen Ye greeted.
Without stopping his work, Cyborg replied, “Good to meet you too, Ronan. Sorry, I can’t shake your hand right now.”
Just then, Cyborg suddenly perked up. “Got it!”
Everyone’s spirits lifted as they gathered around.
Cyborg pointed to a spot on the map. “Here. Pozharnov, in the north of Russia.”
Bruce recognized the location and said seriously, “That’s a nuclear plant. It had an accident 30 years ago and has been abandoned since.”
Diana declared, “We need to move out and stop Steppenwolf.”
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Chen Ye looked at Bruce’s injured arm and asked, “Bruce, is your injury serious?”
“Just a scratch,” Bruce replied nonchalantly. “I won’t slow you down.”
Since becoming Batman, he had sustained injuries all over his body. A small injury like this didn’t even faze him.
Hearing this, Chen Ye didn’t say anything more.
The team prepared themselves, donned their battle suits, and boarded Bruce’s aircraft, flying toward northern Russia.
