2182 Side Story: Fantasy Journey 23

.

Master Wayne subconsciously calculated how many calories this much food contained.

He was very strict with his diet, or his body wouldn’t be able to withstand his intense ‘work’ at night.

It was only after he used one dose of Life 1 recently that Old Master Wayne felt like he had returned to his youth.

It wasn’t easy to obtain this sort of health, so he cherished it.

Diana, on the other hand, was truly surprised at how efficient Little Q was.

There were more than fifty portions on the tea stand, all neatly arranged. Even if this had been set up by a real person, they might not necessarily be able to complete everything and bring them over in two minutes.

Thinking that, she couldn’t help but stroke the top of Little Q’s cute monitor. “Little Q is really capable.”

Little Q [•^_^•]: “Thank you for the compliment, pretty sister.”

After that, afternoon tea officially began.

Luke’s manor was pretty much in the middle of nowhere, and only the facade had been renovated; it still looked old.

The old manor was overgrown with weeds and bushes; under the gloomy sky that was the most common in Gotham, it really looked like a haunted house in a horror film.

It was a good thing that Little Q had taken down the crows, or this place would appear even more haunted.

However, Master Wayne, who also lived in the wilderness, was clearly very used to this scenery.

Diana didn’t pay attention to the scenery at all, and the three of them enjoyed afternoon tea.

Without any bad guys in front of him, Master Wayne could still remain calm. He simply enjoyed his coffee unhurriedly and picked up a small pastry every now and then for a small taste.

Diana clearly didn’t have the same concerns; she casually plucked pastries off of the tea stand, and was clearly partial to the top two tiers of sweets.

Just nice, Luke mainly ate the savory food on the lowest tier, so the two of them enjoyed themselves.

Just like that, half an hour passed, and Luke and Diana finished most of the afternoon tea.

Taking a hot towel from Little Q and wiping his hands clean, Luke said to Master Wayne, who was drinking coffee to stave off his hunger, “Okay, we’ve had our afternoon tea. Let’s get down to business.”

Master Wayne’s identity as the person in charge of Wayne Enterprises was quite eye-catching. Unless it was something serious, these two bigshots wouldn’t come together to visit Luke.

Diana enjoyed her Ceylon tea and had no intention of saying anything.

It was a pleasant surprise to be able to enjoy an upgraded version of English afternoon tea here.

In particular, she didn’t have to care about drawing other people’s attention here, and could eat as much as she wanted.

Although nobody in a cafe would care how much she ate, it still wasn’t very comfortable to be looked at with surprise and curiosity.

Master Wayne put down his coffee cup, which was almost empty, and coughed. “It’s about the flying monster that self-destructed in front of us last time.”

Luke nodded and gestured for him to continue.

Of course, he knew about the monster. He had even guessed something of its origin from Lex’s documents.

But it was inconvenient for him to say anything. Otherwise, how could he explain how he had seen Lex’s documents, when Master Wayne’s men had taken them away immediately?

Luke was the one who had made copies of the documents before he sent Lex on his way.

Master Wayne continued, “There are more and more of them. I’ve killed more than ten recently. They roam Gotham City and Metropolis almost every night.”

Luke added, “I’ve killed 23.”

Diana’s hand that was holding the teacup paused. She had previously gone to Europe to relax after the battle.

It was only because she received a warning about an attack on Paradise Island that she returned to America to look for help.

Compared with the diligent Batman and Knight, she seemed a little too lazy? The battle goddess quickly dismissed this thought.

What a joke! She was very normal. How could she compare with psychos who enjoyed beating up bad guys?

Thankfully, these two ‘mentally ill’ people didn’t care what other people thought as they continued talking. “Diana’s homeland was attacked by the same monsters — led by their leader.”

Luke finally sat up straight and leaned forward slightly to listen attentively.

Old Master Wayne said, “This leader is called Steppenwolf. He wanted to take over Earth thousands of years ago. Once those three cubes are combined, they will become a complete Mother Box that can transform and control the environment of the entire Earth.”

Luke asked, “Like General Zod’s Kryptonian spaceship?”

Master Wayne nodded. “It works differently, but the consequences for us are similar. Earth will become his home ground.”

Luke looked at Diana, who had been silent the whole time. “How’s it going at home?”

Diana’s expression finally changed. “There were a lot of casualties, and Steppenwolf stole the box that was being kept there. The other box is with the Atlanteans, but they’ve retreated into the deep ocean, and it’s hard to contact them. The box left to mankind was secretly buried by their ancestors, and its whereabouts are unknown.”

Luke leaned back in his chair. “So, what are you going to do?”

Given Master Wayne’s personality and controlling nature, he definitely wouldn’t get someone else to come up with an idea.

He definitely had a plan.

Sure enough, Master Wayne appreciated Luke going along with him; the moment Luke opened his mouth, he asked the question that Master Wayne wanted to answer, which was great. “We need more fighting power.”

Luke was surprised. “We do?”

As if he knew what Luke was thinking, Master Wayne nodded firmly. “We do, because Superman has gone home.”

Luke was truly surprised. “What?”

Master Wayne had been staring at his expression the whole time, and only now did he feel that there was nothing wrong.

Knight probably wasn’t monitoring Superman, or he would have known that Superman had gone offworld with the excuse of a ‘business trip.’

This was something that Lois had told Master Wayne herself, and he had been watching Superman the whole time, which was why he had noticed something fishy.

Luke really hadn’t checked on Superman.

To be honest, it was a very boring thing to do.

There were no security issues with Superman at all. Given the sort of enemies he dealt with, the world was sure to know very quickly if something happened — it was impossible for there to be no news of a few cities being destroyed.

As for Superman’s girlfriend, Lois, and his mother, Martha, Luke had earned Superman’s favor by providing them with nanosuits.

Master Wayne thought that Luke didn’t ‘work’ in Metropolis, but Luke had in fact beaten up a few bigshot gang bosses and crippled them on the spot.

Superman never ever thought of having a ‘chat’ with Luke.

No matter how saintly he was, he couldn’t, for the sake of a few heinous criminals, argue with the great benefactor who had saved his mother’s life.

In any case, nobody had died.

These bigshot gang bosses were quite powerful. After they were crippled, they immediately had their loyal lackeys take them away.

Thus, Master Wayne didn’t notice anything unusual.

Now, he had to take the initiative to tell Luke what he had learned about Superman. “He said that there’s something he needs to find out, and that he’ll be away for a while. He’s been gone for more than a month.”

Luke scratched his head. He hadn’t considered the possibility that Superman would leave Earth.
