Chapter 007: Clark's First View Of Gotham

Dane waited until Clark and Joe had finished talking before making his request.

"You want to learn the knowledge in this ship?"

"Yes."

Dane explained, especially when it came to Zod, and he noticed that Joe's face had changed.

"You are Karl's friend, if he is willing to trust you, I am also willing to give his trust."

Clark said at the right time: "I believe him."

Joe had nothing to say, he nodded and permitted Dane to browse the technical documents.

"How do you want to learn? This ship can instill knowledge directly through neural circuits."

"But this is a 20,000-year-old ship. It's hard for you to form a long-term memory with this device. It can only be transmitted bit by bit."

"no problem."

He still had great confidence in the "wisdom of Solomon."

"Well, there is another independent intelligent AI on this ship, and she will help you receive this knowledge."

Joe's digital AI is brought aboard Carl's spaceship, an ancient research ship with artificial intelligence.

Dane nodded.

"welcome."

Dane's common words were detected, and a nice female voice echoed in his ears.

"The recursive program has been diagnosed and the navigation authority has been confirmed."

"Everything is working fine."

"Unknown application for transfer of access to the archive room, do you accept it?"

Dane realized he was talking about himself and replied, "Accept."

"The Kryptonian Archives contain knowledge from a hundred thousand different worlds."

"very good."

Dane was about to go in, but he seemed to remember something, and he yelled at Clark.

"Clark, I'm going to start studying, together?"

"don't want!"

Clark has rejection written all over his face. Although he has a super brain, Dane feels that it should be called a super cerebellum. Apart from allowing him to better control his super Ability, he has never seen him use this Ability to do serious things.

Could it be that he was poisoned by America's education?

 

Dane, who was a serious academic in his previous life, expressed his incomprehension, but he respected Clark's choice.

"Then what are you going to do next?"

"Didn't you say you want to invite people to join our organization?"

"It's the Justice League!"

"Is the name a bit too deliberate?"

"Your name will be 'Superman' from now on, I think this is more deliberate."

"I still have a name? What about you? What's your name?"

"Shazam."

"This name feels a bit out of character."

Clark commented enthusiastically.

"Is there anything to say?"

"Because I have the wisdom of Solomon, the strength of Hercules, the stamina of Atlas, the power of Zeus, the courage of Achilles, and the speed of Mercury."

"The six gods take their initials, and the combination is Shazam!"

"This is a bit cool, you will explain it to fans in the future."

Dane rolled his eyes to the sky. He didn't say that Shazam used to be called "Captain Marvel". After all, it was a bit of copyright infringement.

And when the name is mentioned, he thinks of a boxy aunt's face.

"If you have nothing to do, you can go to Gotham and find a way to get in touch with Batman."

"Didn't you say he was suspicious?"

"Yeah, but you should be fine."

"Didn't you still say he was difficult to deal with?"

"Yeah, but you should be fine."

Clark looked puzzled, no problem, no problem.

Dane didn't speak. Looking at the DC world, Superman and Batman are good friends most of the time.

The scheming Batman doesn't know why he can always accept the innocent Clark very quickly. As long as Clark treats him sincerely, he believes that the iceberg heart of Batman will melt away.

And now that Zod hasn't come yet, and the Wayne Building hasn't collapsed, Batman doesn't have such deep prejudices against Superman, so it's quite appropriate to let him go.

Even if the current Superman is too simple, I don't know if he can stand up to such a simple place with customs like Gotham.

"Okay then, I'll just go there, what about the others?"

Dane thought for a while and said:

"Wonder Woman and General can wait for a while, and I will find an opportunity to invite them then."

 

This is also something to consider. If he remembers correctly, Wonder Woman should be working in Abroad now and has not returned to America.

Martian Manhunter has now sneaked into the top ranks of the military, so he can't rush to the door.

The other heroes haven't grown up yet, so it's not convenient to invite them.

He had thought about inviting Justice Society's Hawkman Carter Hall and Dr. Fate's Kent Nelson.

However, thinking of the performance of these two people in "Black Adam", he was a little hesitant, not because of their strength.

Although Hawkman doesn't look very strong, he is durable and has a high combat IQ and experience. As a small team leader, he also has enough leadership charisma.

But he's a bit of a double standard, and he's a dead-headed one.

In the movie, for the sake of so-called procedural justice, he strictly forbids Black Adam to kill people, but before the international gang committed countless blood debts in Kandak, I have not seen him do anything.

Dane labeled the man "pedantic" and "conformist".

No wonder Adriana, who released Black Adam, would rather believe in Black Adam than the Justice Society.

Speaking of Dr. Fate, well...

When I read the comics, I felt that this character is very hanging, but the performance in the movie gives people a feeling that there is more than enough energy, and it does not show the strength that a god should have at all.

Moreover, after Kent becomes Doctor Fate, he will be possessed by the god Naboo. This god Dane doesn't like it very much, and his words are as angry as Amanda Waller's.

In short, both of them feel a bit unreal, but his judgment is based on the worldview of comics.

If according to the upper limit of the strength of the movie universe, they feel okay, let's have a look.

After discussing with Clark, Dane left him alone, went into the file room, and went to study.

As for going to school, what a load of crap!

...

Clark dressed up as an ordinary farm boy and walked into Gotham.

At night, Clark walked into a restaurant called "Pauli's Diner" under the slight drizzle. He was a little hungry.

"Hello, what do you want?"

Behind the table, a blonde waitress came over.

"Waffles with bacon and coffee."

Clark smiled kindly. The waitress was very happy to see his handsome face and started to prepare with a smile.

"It's a bad day, isn't it?"

Clark heard someone talking and looked over suspiciously, but saw a middle-aged man in a police uniform.

"My name is Owens, and I'm the local police officer. You're not a local, young man, are you?"

"Is it so obvious?"

Clark looked at himself.

Officer Owens smiled and said nothing. The young man in front of him looked like a pure and good person. This kind of person could never be from Gotham.

"My name is Clark. I just came to Gotham City and I want to find someone."

Owens didn't delve into it too much. He said something out of professional habits, not wanting to question anything.

Then a young man walks up, who looks younger than Clark, maybe not even twenty years old.

At the moment, the young man looked worried, and Owens seemed to know him.

"Hey, Jason, why are you out? I remember your house has a curfew," Owens teased.

Jason managed to pull out a smiling face, and casually said: "I have something..."

Owens smiled with an "I understand" expression on his face, he hadn't played at home when he was young.

Clark glanced casually and found that although the other party was young, he was extremely physically fit.

It is conservatively estimated that there are three or five strong men who are as strong as they are.

He was a little curious, wondering what the origin of this young man was.

Jason looked a little restless, he looked down at his watch frequently, as if he were waiting for someone.

Suddenly, his cell phone rang. Jason took out the cell phone and looked at it. His face became even uglier, and Clark couldn't help but become more curious.

"I'm here, where are you?"

Jason kept his voice low.

Clark said "Sorry" silently in his heart, and then quietly turned on the super hearing.

He heard the voice on the other side of the microphone. He couldn't describe the voice, it felt crazy.

"Ah, my dear Jason, today I broke another finger of your mother, she was crying so loudly, I couldn't help but kill her."

"Stop you demon!"

Jason cursed, but couldn't hide his uneasiness and weakness.

"Come on over here Jason, oh yeah, I forgot, I just moved into a dilapidated Warehouse near Arkham."

"You should know where it is. Do you want to use the little bat's computer to look it up?"

As he said that, another scream came from the other side of the microphone, and Jason knew that it was his mother's voice.

"Enough, enough! I know, I will come alone, please don't torture her anymore."

Clark was so angry that his lungs were going to explode, he wished he could fly over now and rescue the person.

But thinking that he didn't know where the opposite was at all, he could only hold his breath helplessly.

But he made up his mind that he must follow this young man for a while and rescue him and his mother together!
