In the Justice League Watchtower Base Conference Room, a group of Justice League superheroes gathered here to hold an important meeting under the auspices of Batman.
The atmosphere of the venue was very solemn, and the expressions of every superhero were not relaxed. Even the Flash, Green Lantern and Golden Pioneer, who often said witty words and jokes, were silent.
Even, on the whole, the superheroes are a little downcast, just like soldiers who have just fought a defeat.
In fact, they did not defeat the war during this period of time. They suppressed all orc riots within the whole hope country. The number of mad orcs killed at least exceeded one million, and they saved city after riot.
However, these victories did not bring them flowers and applause, nor did they completely solve the problem by winning a single battle like the previous victories that can be finalized.
They killed a lot of intelligent creatures that looked very like intelligent creatures, and they were also mixed with a lot of intelligent mad orcs with extraordinary intelligence. They continue to kill and consume their mental health. After completing a massacre, they have to face the loss of their loved ones. The accusations of the disaster-stricken people in their homeland asked them why they could not be as perfect as the Bradlow crisis management team.
If you win a battle, you will be stoned by the people. This kind of treatment can be tolerated once or twice, and again and again. Even the kindest, most just, and sunniest person will inevitably not be affected. The heart of boredom.
Obviously, their tactical victory cannot make up for their strategic defeat.
The Justice League is not without its weaknesses. Their weakness lies not in their combat effectiveness, but in their inability to fight bad battles. Once the situation gets out of control and there are too many hostile targets, the superheroes will lose sight of one another and fall into the quagmire of fighting.
In a dark parallel universe, because Batman spread the Doomsday virus, a large number of ordinary people were infected and turned into Doomsday zombies. The heroes of the Justice League were slowly affected by these numbers as the infection spread more and more. The zombies are killed one by one, and the whole world is destroyed.
The applause and praise of the people are very important to the justice league superheroes. It not only boosts their morale, but also improves their fighting power invisibly under the influence of the world's rules because of the high fan value.
Even if you win, you still have to be scolded and dismissed from your fans. It consumes the will of the heroes of the Justice League, and at the same time weakens their power. Many superheroes have made disclosures when dealing with orc riots, not only did not save the crisis, He was even severely injured by the mutant mad orcs. If it weren't for Superman's timely rescue, the Justice League would have a deadly hero.
In addition to the heroes on duty and missions to suppress the mad orcs riots, more than fifty heroes from the core of the Justice League are here. Batman saw that people were almost there, so he announced the official start of the meeting.
"Everyone, there is no need to say more about the current situation. I can't continue to drag on like this. I decided..."
Batman said in a deep voice: "I will resign from the presidency. I will officially announce this news in tonight's live news."
"what?"
"No!"
...
The participating superheroes were in an uproar, and many people were surprised.
Superhuman said: "It's not fair! Bruce, it's obviously those shameless politicians who are disregarding the safety of the people who are instigating it. If you announce your resignation, won't they win?"
Wonder Woman also said with a wry expression: "Yes, it is obviously the Democratic Party members who are obstructing the passage of the bill to end the ban. If you resign, they will definitely pass the bill in a short time, and then spill the sewage on you!"
Batman waited for the two close friends to finish speaking with a cold face, and said in an indifferent voice: "It's not that I didn't fail to deal with those shameless politicians. I can also incite public opinion like shameless politicians, pour dirty water on them, and be with them. The media scolded, sent tweets to reveal some'truths', gave public speeches and said something nice to woo the people...I am smarter and more capable than them, and I will definitely be able to do better than them. I use lies, slander, and and various tricks knocked them to the ground one by one."
Wonder Woman and Superman were taken aback, they seemed to understand what Bruce wanted to express.
"But, just like I adhere to the principle of not killing, if I play politics like a shameless politician, won't I become like them? The original purpose of being a president is to protect the people, not to maintain power and status. I don’t want to end up being the kind of person I hate the most!"
"However, once you announce your resignation, those politicians will definitely fall into trouble!"
Superman is still grieving, worrying and authentic: "They will continue to slander you, and even give you a crime and send you to prison!"
"I know..." Batman is still expressionless: "I'm ready. The Wayne Group is also recruiting the best gold medal lawyers. The evidence needed for the hearing has already been collected. If they dare to fall into trouble, I exposed their black files at the hearing to wash away my stigma! I resigned as President just to pass the bill smoothly and end the mad orcs crisis in Hope Country as soon as possible. Every day, nearly a hundred people die due to the mad orcs crisis. , Shameless politicians don’t care, but I do!"
The Justice League superheroes in the conference room were silent. Their eyes were full of admiration when they looked at Batman. During this time, discordant voices have actually been heard from within the league. Some superheroes have criticized Batman. His faint move to issue the ban is the root cause of the collapse of the alliance during this period, and his delay in issuing a bill to terminate the ban is even worse and bears great responsibility.
But today Batman said something like this, decisively decided to resign from the presidency, not caring about personal honor or disgrace, and regained their respect, indeed behaved like a saint in character.
"Bruce, maybe... things haven't developed to the point where they have to resign..."
Superman groaned: "Have you talked with Damian? Or try to ask his opinion and see if he can help. Even if you have different ideas, the ultimate goal of protecting and saving the world is the same. Yes, and even if you are separated, you are still fathers and sons. If you solve the contradiction and join hands, no one is your opponent in this world!"
Batman, who has always been very calm and indifferent, heard the name "Damian" and his emotions fluctuated significantly. He behaved more like a normal person. He smiled bitterly and said, "Please help that kid? I'm afraid to quit. This is what he most wants to see, so that he can collude with those shameless politicians and enact severe penalties to arbitrarily deprive criminals of their lives!"
"Even if he promises to help you on the condition that you cooperate with him in enacting a more stringent death penalty law, he will collude with shameless politicians after you resign. Anyway, you can't stop it. Why not try?"
Superman persuaded: "He is also a principled person. He will not ignore the casualties of innocent people. Otherwise, he will not develop the most secure crisis management plan to help the poor in India to avoid casualties. You. Always imagine him too badly. If this kind of misunderstanding persists, we will always choose to confront him under your insistence and pull the personal grievances of your father and son into official affairs. It is wrong!"
Batman clenched his fists, his face was bitter, and he said: "Don't be fooled by his disguise... Zhizi Mo Ruofu, he is definitely not a good person, I can feel it intuitively!"
The position of President of Hope is not very important to Bruce. He is not interested in power, but the closest partners in the Justice League are beginning to trust Damian’s character. Batman is in the Justice League. His authority has been affected, which makes Bruce feel like a knife, which is uncomfortable.
