My Superhero Can’t Be This Jerk

"yes."

Eric didn't deny it.

"Why did you let him out?"

Although Emiko's aura was a little weaker than before, when Taiden was mentioned, she immediately raised eyebrows.

"He is still useful, so there is no need to keep him locked up for the time being."

Eric makes an excuse that he doesn't quite believe.

"Well, you have your own reasons, and I can stop asking. I'll ask you another question."

Emiko took the initiative to approach Eric, and the expression on her face became a little calmer.

"How are you going to manage this camp? I know that you have been trying to seek a duel with Omega. This will not be a single battle, let alone a winner in a short period of time. Are you going to stay here forever? ?”

Emiko frowned and asked in a deep voice.

"This...wait for the next opportunity, but I will leave after all."

Eric picked up the nitrate luncheon meat on the table and handed it to Emiko, "Do you want to have a taste?"

"no thanks!"

Emiko shook her head in disgust.

It looks like she's already eaten this stuff.

"There is a granary on the west side of the city, which is some distance away from the camp. I am planning to organize people to explore there. How about it? Do you want to go together?"

Eric put down the nitrate luncheon meat and invited Emiko.

"You're gone, what about the camp? You don't think they can stop those mutated beasts that may come at any time, do you?"

Emiko didn't agree directly, she frowned, and asked a question she was very concerned about.

"Here can be temporarily handed over to the death knell."

"You trust him?"

"In the transaction of doing things for money,

I still have a lot of trust in him. "

Eric smiled and put the bat helmet on his head.

 …

Emiko eventually headed west of the city with Eric.

Food and cars, gasoline, that's what she wants to get.

Eric, Emiko, and more than a dozen well-equipped fighters set off to the destination together.

Tal and Dee came with them.

"There used to be many superheroes in this era, is there only so many left?"

On the way, Eric asked Emiko.

Depart at noon, and probably arrive in the evening, so Eric and his party don't need to rush too much.

"Many superheroes died trying to save the populace, others were captured by Omega, and others went to a world that appreciated their values ​​more. Humans always do this, they abandon heroes, just like before Choose to do so countless times, so heroes don't have to guard the world."

Emiko said with a heavy heart.

Eric understands a little bit why those great powers in the DC world didn't take action. If Dr. Manhattan, the Monitor, and the Voice of God took action, it might be possible to prevent all this from happening.

It is very likely that these existences were disheartened, allowed the world to be destroyed, and left the earth.

A group of more than ten people walked through a wasteland and came to a place covered with black mud.

"This is the sudden fire plain."

Tal took the initiative to introduce Eric to this place that exudes the smell of death and decay.

"Sudden Fire Plain?" Eric didn't understand why this place was called Sudden Fire Plain.

"Yes, where the Battle of Sudden Fire took place."

Dee is a guy who likes to read miscellaneous books, "One winter night, Omega released his army and attacked Lake Venice along the White Mountains of New Hampshire. Lake Venice is stationed with the last coalition forces, Wonder Woman and Mera (Aquaman's wife) formed the last coalition of superheroes. I heard that many superheroes participated in that battle."

Carrying his schoolbag, Dee recalled the battle in his memory, "Supergirl, Poison Ivy, Vixen, Black Manta, Catwoman, Orm, Firestorm, Blue Devil, Time Man, Sandman... .and many other superheroes."

"And what happened next?" Eric asked.

Di only knew the general idea, and it was difficult for him to tell him all the development and details of the incident.

"Later, anyway, I knew that the Earth Superhero Alliance had failed."

He finally concluded with this sentence.

"Wonder Woman led an army from Kennebunkport to the north, but encountered the main force of Omega. She was planning to join Mera's Atlantis army, but was detected by Omega. The early battle broke out."

Emiko is relatively clear about the history of this period, and he told Eric in detail the specific details of the Battle of Sudden Fire.

"The superhero army led by Wonder Woman is weak and was quickly defeated by Omega's army. If there is no accident, they will be captured or killed soon, but Vixen and the Teen Titans Justice League arrived. Saved Wonder Woman and all the superheroes."

"But the remaining Mera's Atlantis army suffered a catastrophe. Due to Wonder Woman's retreat, the Atlantis army's flanks were completely surrounded by Omega's army, and the flame magic that fell from the sky formed a torrent of flames. From the White Mountains all the way to Kennebunkport, the places we passed were completely scorched. Naturally, the people of Atlantis were also completely destroyed!"

Emiko spoke the cruel truth in a calm tone.

"The flames flowed into the sea, and the sea water could not extinguish them. This made the sea water boil, emitting a high temperature that was unbearable for all living things..."

Emiko's tone remained calm.

But Eric on the other side was lost in thought.

No wonder when I passed by the sea with the clown and the raven, I found that the sea water was very hot. It turned out that it was because of the great war!

"So later people called this place the Plain of Sudden Fire, and this battle was called the Battle of Sudden Fire."

Finally Emiko ended with a sigh.

Unexpectedly, someone like her would sigh, Eric felt a little incredible.

"Did you take part in that battle?"

Tar on the side asked Emiko curiously.

"Me? Am I the type to sacrifice for others?"

Emiko glared at him, then took a few quick steps forward, away from Eric and his party.

"Wonder Woman! People say that she betrayed Meila. If it weren't for her defeat, the last coalition might have a chance of victory."

Di rubbed his chin, pretending to analyze like an adult.

Eric patted Di on the head, "Don't talk nonsense!"

Unexpectedly, Diana had experienced such a tortuous past, and she never said these things to herself.

It is just an understatement to describe the failure of the final battle.

I didn't notice Diana's sad face at all!

Eric thought to himself while walking.

He felt that he was a bit of a jerk, and he didn't seriously inquire about what happened back then, nor did he try to comfort Diana.
