In the end, Luke managed to get Diana to have lunch with him. He even hitched a ride in Diana's Lamborghini Huracan and drove off.
Only Lord Wei, whose eyes were flickering, and Xiao Ba and Victor, who were both dumbfounded, were left behind.
Stumped for a moment, Xiao Ba turned around and looked at Victor. "Are you going to drive?"
Victor said helplessly, "I'm not that good at controlling the car. If I step on the gas, I might bend it. You drive. I don't want to fix it. "
Xiao Ba said with a long face, "I usually run. It's faster and more convenient than taking a car."
Victor didn't care. He pulled Xiao Ba over to Luke's car and said, "Automatic transmission. It's very simple."
Xiao Ba, however, suddenly slapped his forehead. "Wait, I'm confused. Bell's SUV has AI. I don't need to drive it."
Victor was speechless. "… Why didn't you say so earlier?" He then pulled the door, but it didn't open.
Xiao Ba coughed and said, "Open sesame."
With a light click, the doors of the passenger and passenger seats were unlocked.
Victor glared at Xiao Ba. "You did it on purpose?"
Xiao Ba shivered. "You're too fast."
Victor said, "So, you're not the one who claims to be the fastest among us?"
Xiao Ba said, "Bell said that life should be fun. It's boring to speed up all the time."
Victor said, "… Fine, you do it. I'll leave it to you."
They left noisily, and Lord Wei got into his car, but he didn't start it right away. Instead, he tapped the steering wheel thoughtfully. "Bell, humph!"
…
Dinner with the Goddess of War was part of the plan.
Luke casually asked about her family, then asked if she could visit Paradise Island in the near future.
Diana didn't refuse, but asked curiously, "Why?"
Luke shrugged. "It's team building. I helped with Xiao Ba and Victor's family problems. If Arthur doesn't mind, I'd like to visit Atlantis too. "
Diana swirled the red wine in her glass. "I don't think there's any trouble at home."
Luke said, "Maybe I need some help."
Diana was interested. "What kind of help?"
Luke asked, "For example, an indestructible sword or an indestructible shield?"
Diana understood a little, but she shook her head regretfully. "We don't have the technology to make these things."
Luke waved his hand casually. "It's just an example. You might be used to it, but Bruce and I might be able to do something with it. That's how scientists think."
Diana pondered for a moment and didn't refuse. "I'll ask, but I might not succeed."
Luke chuckled. "Putting everything else aside, are you sure Paradise Island doesn't need emergency defense weapons if the Wasteland Wolves show up again?"
Diana's eyes flickered. "Like your Floating Turrets?"
Luke said indifferently, "That was just to fool Bruce. Actually, my fighter is already capable of short-distance space travel."
Diana thought, "… Say that in front of Bruce if you dare!"
In the end, Diana didn't make a decision on the spot, but Luke felt that she was definitely tempted.
Although she had lived in England for a long time and occasionally visited other countries in Europe, there had been a lot of casualties on Paradise Island this time.
If Luke could equip Paradise Island with the space fighters, they would have a lot more room to maneuver in times of crisis.
It was the fate of a warrior to die on the battlefield, but that didn't mean that reducing casualties wasn't important.
Of course, there were a lot of troublesome aspects.
First of all, an outsider on Paradise Island, and a super strong Dark Knight at that, definitely had to be considered.
Secondly, the Dark Knight was a man, and a handsome, powerful, and eloquent one at that.
It had to be noted that all the Amazon warriors on Paradise Island were women.
When they met a man like him, it was possible that some of them would want to experiment.
Diana was very confident about that. After all, that was how she had come into contact with the outside world after leaving Paradise Island.
…
A month later, Superman returned to Earth.
He was a little surprised and embarrassed to hear about the attack of the Wasteland Wolves.
Luke didn't ask about his gains on Krypton, but Lord Wei probed him a few times without batting an eyelid.
Unfortunately, Superman didn't reveal anything.
From his expression and movements, it didn't look like he had found a treasure, but an indescribably complicated feeling.
Luke wasn't as impatient as Lord Wei.
He still had a few hundred years to live, and was much calmer than Lord Wei, who was about to pass away from his prime and was already halfway through his life.
Superman himself was a treasure trove.
He had already hidden the Krypton spaceship that had sent Superman to Earth as a baby.
Superman also had a high-level database of the Kryptonians in his hands. He had gathered intelligence from various sources.
Luke didn't know exactly what the database was or what it was used for.
But just by looking at the wreckage of the spaceship left behind by General Zod, he could sense the power of Krypton's technology.
Thus, Luke could only quietly stabilize his network of power and take the place of some experts to study the spaceship left behind by General Zod.
This was enough for him to play with for eight to ten years.
Lord Wei was gradually perfecting all aspects of the Righteous Alliance, and Luke was also helping him.
He had to make it clear to the members that while Lord Wei had done most of it, the Knight had also contributed a small part.
This thing was essentially similar to a company; whoever invested more would have a greater say.
If you didn't invest, you wouldn't have much say.
Luke's investment just so happened to make Lord Wei a little uncomfortable, but he had no choice but to accept it.
It wasn't like he could openly say that capable members weren't allowed to participate in the "team-building," right? None of them were fools.
In particular, when Luke discussed "group psychology" with Victor, intentionally or otherwise, Xiao Ba seemed to have realized something.
Superman wasn't present? That didn't matter.
In any case, this kind of "team-building" was held for an hour on Saturday afternoons every week. Reporter Clark only had to tilt his ear to listen in remotely.
There was no need to talk about advanced content, but maintaining independent thinking and refusing to follow blindly was the foundation.
Luke wouldn't curse in class, but he was quite mean when he mocked the students who were "brainless and unhappy."
There were a lot of things like, "Did his mother throw him away when she gave birth to him and raise the placenta?"
No matter how saintly Superman was, he wasn't interested in being the "placenta sperm" that Luke described.
At night, Luke would put on his armor and randomly pick "lucky spectators" to deal with in the major cities on the east coast.
In fact, these "lucky spectators" were targets that had been identified in advance.
It was just a random order; it was only a matter of time before they were unlucky.
As a result, the rest of the Righteous Alliance's limelight was suppressed by the Dark Knight.
Compared with Batman, who basically only appeared in Gotham, the Dark Knight's act of sweeping through a third of the United States was too high-profile.
