Chapter 382: I Was Weak as a Chicken at the Age of Seventeen, but I Became Invincible After Seventeen

The next day, Padrick Farm.

Bruce looked at Zatanna in front of him in surprise.

He didn't expect to see Zatanna here.

"Zazatana, why are you here?"

In the living room, Bruce looked at Zatanna, who had grown into a fair lady in front of him.

"Bruce? Are you Bruce Wayne?"

"Yes, I'm Bruce."

Bruce immediately recognized this childhood playmate, and he still couldn't believe his eyes.

"Wait, you guys know each other?"

McBee, the vixen, saw Bruce and Zatanna staring at each other with big eyes, and asked the two of them in confusion: "Why do you two have intersections?"

"That's a long story."

Zatanna took a deep breath to calm down her emotions, and explained to McBee: "Witnessing the murder of his parents, the young Bruce became very introverted. Taking advantage of Bruce's birthday, his butler Alfred organized Had a birthday party, hope he would be happy."

Then she turned her gaze to Bruce, "Do you remember? Bruce."

Bruce nodded with a complicated expression, "Yes, of course I remember."

"Afterwards, Bruce was sitting alone by the river in a daze. I took the initiative to come to him, but he didn't want to be disturbed, so he said to me: The party is over there, and the subtext was 'stay away from me.'"

Zatanna looked at Bruce's somewhat embarrassed face and continued to smile and said to McBee, "Then I gave him a magic trick."

McBee nodded and asked gossiping: "What happens next?"

"Then his sullen face finally cracked into a smile, and we became friends and I stayed in Wayne Manor for several days. I have to say, it's quite a big place and I almost got lost."

Listening to Zatanna telling the story of the two of them when they were teenagers, Bruce felt a little sad, "You never contacted me, Zatanna."

"You haven't contacted me, Bruce. My father said that you may always be trapped in hatred. If you can't resolve this hatred, then you can't be an ordinary person. You haven't contacted me. That means, Bruce, you are still You didn’t come out of that alley, and you didn’t return to ordinary life.”

Zatanna said feeling a little uncomfortable in her heart.

"I"

Bruce's heart became heavy, "...We will be trapped by shackles throughout our lives. Even if the shackles are broken physically, our hearts will still become heavier than before."

After a while, Bruce exhaled and said to Zatanna, who was also silent: "I have investigated the whereabouts of Mr. John Zatara, but found nothing."

"Thank you for your concern, Bruce. I have already met my father."

Zatanna smiled at Bruce and said: "We have a farewell that is more than ten years late. Although it is a bit regretful, it makes up for what I have always longed for before."

Bruce was slightly stunned when he heard this, and asked him with some uncertainty: "You mean, Mr. Zatara, he"

"Yes, my father died in a fire."

"I'm sorry, Zha."

"It's nothing, it's all over."

Zatanna said to him in an "It doesn't matter" tone: "We have to look forward, don't we?"

Bruce nodded.

He was about to ask the other party how he knew Peter when he heard a voice coming from upstairs.

"Bruce?"

Peter looked at Bruce who appeared at the farm in surprise.

"gentlemen."

Bruce came up and greeted Peter, "And little Raven, good morning."

"Good morning, brother Bruce."

Raven, who was held in Peter's arms, politely replied to Bruce.

"Brother Bruce, did you bring me a gift?"

For the richest man in Gotham, Raven was full of expectations for Bruce's arrival every time.

If you are the richest man, the gift you give yourself must be the best.

"Uh, sorry, I forgot. Ruiwen, whatever gift you like, I'll buy it for you directly."

Bruce said awkwardly.

"No, thank you for your generosity, Brother Bruce, but Dad said you can't ask people for gifts directly. It's rude."

Raven shook her head and said seriously.

Bruce: "."

Isn't it a way of asking for a gift when you just opened your mouth to ask what gift you gave?

Bruce was in a messy state, Peter coughed and handed Raven to McBee next to him.

"Riven, you watch some cartoons with Mary Poppins and Zatanna, and I'll talk to Bruce."

As he spoke, he rubbed the somewhat reluctant Raven's forehead and handed it to McBee.

He knew that Bruce must be looking for him for something important.

Upstairs, in the study.

Peter poured Bruce a cup of coffee and asked him, "I guess you have some questions for me, right?"

Bruce held the coffee cup, nodded and said, "Yes, sir, I don't know how to describe it, but I think what I said may be important to you."

"Is it important to me?"

Hearing what the other party said, Peter became interested.

"Really? Then I'm very interested."

Bruce organized his language and told Peter what he had observed yesterday about Mark and the Almighty Man in another world.

And he told Peter what he had dreamed about before about Clark and Mark fighting.

Peter was stunned when he heard Bruce mention that the next baby might be Mark.

Mark Grayson?

A superhero born in the world of "The Invincibles", a hybrid born from the union of Almighty Man and a woman from Earth.

Not only is his ability not inferior to that of Azu, but he can even compete with The Flash in terms of his outlook on life.

In order to protect the earth, he even turned against his father.

In a sense, he is indeed a father-worn person.

However, the Invincible Young Man's superpowers cannot be awakened until he is seventeen years old.

In other words, if the fifth baby is really the Invincible Young Hero, he will live as an ordinary person until he is seventeen years old.

"gentlemen."

Peter was lost in thought when Bruce interrupted him.

Peter looked up at him, and Bruce said to him hesitantly: "If that really happened, I mean, the Invincible Young Man really came to Earth, what would you do with him?"

"What do you think should be done? Bruce."

Peter moved his eyebrows and asked him.

"I think that even though he was a baby when he came, he was always a biological weapon of the Vitrum people. He could not abandon his mission as a member of the Vitrum Empire, just like the one I saw destroyed by him. world, if we do not restrain him, he may cause war as he did on that earth."

Although he felt that this was a bit cruel, Bruce still felt that he had to control the other party.

Unlike the Kryptonians, the Vitrumites' fanaticism for aggression and war seems to be engraved in their genes.

By observing another world, Bruce thought he had a preliminary understanding of this race.

"How can you be sure that what you see must be the real Mark, Bruce."

Peter asked Bruce.

Bruce was stunned for a moment, "Isn't it? Sir."

"Don't be deceived by your own eyes, Bruce. Maybe what you see is just a collapsed universe among many parallel universes. Something must have happened, causing everything to end badly, just like Clark in the unjust world will turn black. But you and I both believe that Clark in our world will not go dark. In a normal world, I believe that Mark will not collude with his father, the Almighty Hero."

"You saw him in your dream. He stood up bravely for me. Even if he didn't have any power, I believe that a person full of courage will not become a villain without a bottom line."

Peter had some knowledge of the world of "The Young Masters" in his previous life.

He guessed that what Bruce saw was probably a parallel universe of some invincible young man.

Mark, who dominates the universe, not only did not choose to follow his father, but also refused to give in.

He insisted that being weak does not mean being inferior, but has something noble about it.

More or less, people have the seeds of kindness in their hearts, and they all have the desire to do good. Therefore, doing justice, punishing evil and promoting good are not the privileges of superheroes, nor are superheroes superior to ordinary people. People have the right to be grateful to superheroes, but they have no obligation to accept their protection or be at their mercy.

Mark's remarks completely angered his father, and the two finally started a duel in the city.

There was even a scene where Almighty Man grabbed Mark's head and used his Vitrum steel body to collide with a speeding subway train, allowing him to witness the death of everyone in the subway at the moment of collision with him.

Hundreds of lives were wiped out in a minute. The only ones alive in the subway station were Mark, who was stained with blood, and Almighty Man, who had a look of contempt on his face.

Almighty Man thought this would make Mark collapse. Unexpectedly, after experiencing this tragic scene, Mark not only did not collapse, but instead strengthened his determination to fight his father to the end.

Peter doesn't believe that this kind of "father-worried man" who can fight with his father until the last second for the sake of the earth will attack the people on earth.

It's just that this kid didn't have any superpowers before he turned seventeen, so how to protect him from harm is a problem.

Bruce fell into silence after listening to Peter's words.

Although he didn't trust Mark, he felt that what Peter said made sense.

"I understand, sir."

Nodding slightly towards Peter, Bruce said nothing more.

For dinner, Bruce stayed at the farm to eat.

Loki kept looking at Bruce, as if he wanted to say something.

"How does Teacher Martha treat you with your tutoring?"

Peter put down his knife and fork and asked the dishonest Loki.

"Very good, Dad, I mean Teacher Martha teaches very well, and I'm learning very quickly."

Loki always felt that he had a sense of familiarity and closeness to Teacher Martha.

I always feel that the aura on the other person's body is somewhat similar to the World Tree.

Peter nodded and was about to continue asking when the farm phone suddenly rang.

"I'm Peter Padraic."

Peter stood up and answered the phone.

Jonathan's voice came, "It's me, Jonathan, Peter, something happened!"
