Chapter 309: Arriving at Star City
Initially, Billy was indeed startled by the suddenly popped-out screen, but Billy Batson, the inheritor of Shazam's Divine Power and full of adventurous spirit, quickly adapted to this Little Broken Car with its own consciousness.
As the saying goes, Super Heroes have seen all sorts of strange things. It takes some effort to scare them.
Billy not only adapted to the Little Broken Car but also, driven by his curiosity about the latter, quickly became friendly with it. After all, High-Tech things always attract boys' attention.
"When are you planning to leave?" Yang Le asked, watching Billy interacting with the Little Broken Car. "Judging by your Age, you should still be in school, right? It's so late now, won't you be late for class tomorrow if you don't go Home?"
Because Yang Le knew about Billy's Home situation, knowing that Billy's Parents had long been missing, Yang Le didn't mention anything about family, only mentioning school. Billy didn't think in that direction either, just putting on a pained Expression.
"Ugh, darn it! Why can't every day be a Vacation?"
"Your Problem is one that over ninety percent of Children in the World have raised." Yang Le threw the finished Cola into the Trash Can. This Household Waste would not be wasted; it would all be decomposed by the Little Broken Car and stored for the RV/Motorhome's own repairs and other uses.
"Don't be sad, you can come find us anytime you want." Yang Le winked at the Little Broken Car, and the latter immediately understood. With a series of assembly sounds, it produced a Watch-like object and handed it to Billy.
"What's this?" Billy looked curiously at the Watch handed over by the Mechanical arm. He took it and held it in his Hand, finding that it was indeed no different from a Watch. The pointers on the Watch Face were still moving.
"A Watch-style Communication Device. With it, you can contact the Little Broken Car." Yang Le gestured for Billy to put on the Watch. "On the surface, it's no different from an ordinary Watch, but as long as you long-press the crown, you can contact the Little Broken Car. Then, the Little Broken Car can send our Position to you, and you can find us."
Hearing Yang Le say this, Billy didn't doubt it and immediately put the Wristwatch on his Left Hand Wrist. The Wristwatch's style was quite ordinary, looking like a Generic Brand Watch. This was for easy concealment, after all, a Child like Billy, who was adopted, wearing a delicate Watch would easily attract attention.
But even just this made Billy very satisfied. A Watch like this, for a Child of his Age, as long as it wasn't a Children's Watch, would be considered a relatively expensive Gift.
The Little Broken Car gradually slowed down and finally stopped slowly by the Road. Before the Door opened, a sound of thunder came from inside the RV/Motorhome. Immediately afterward, the Door opened, and a red-clad strong man walked out, who was Billy transformed into Shazam.
"After the Vacation, I'll come find you guys to play!" Shazam waved his Hand, revealing a mouthful of white Teeth, and then flew away without looking back.
Yang Le also waved goodbye, and only turned back to the Car after Billy's Figure was out of sight. Giving Billy the Wristwatch was to befriend him. Although The Presence didn't say it explicitly, Yang Le could guess that The Presence definitely didn't want to see him transform into Alien X often.
This was not difficult to understand. No one would like to see someone wandering around in their garden with a Nuclear Warhead. The Presence appearing when Yang Le transformed into Alien X had an implied threat. Later, giving Yang Le a Legal Identity was a Paradigm of giving a Slap and then a Sweet Treat, meaning as long as he didn't transform into Alien X, The Presence would let Yang Le do whatever he wanted.
It should be known that although Yang Le had this Alien X as a powerful weapon, if the three Consciousnesses were not unified, Yang Le would definitely not be a match for The Presence.
So Yang Le followed the Platform that The Presence provided. The Presence came with Goodwill, so there was no need for him to fall out with The Presence. That would not Benefit Yang Le at all. Not to mention whether he could win against The Presence, the Voice of Reason within Alien X would unlikely agree with Yang Le's approach.
At that time, it wouldn't be a Problem of whether he could win or not. Perhaps even Alien X, this strongest Cheat, would be sealed from then on and could never be taken out again.
Therefore, unless it was a critical moment, Yang Le would not transform into Alien X. Then, to ensure his Safety, making some powerful Friends was very necessary.
Although the other Alien Hero in the Little Broken Watch were also very powerful, who would complain about having too much Safety? Moreover, becoming Friends with people from the Justice League would also help his later DNA Collection Plan. It could be said to be all Benefit and no harm.
"When you're out and about, rely on Friends," that's what it means. It's a pity that Shazam's Ability doesn't come from his DNA, but from the blessings of the Gods, so the Little Broken Watch cannot acquire his Power. This made Yang Le feel somewhat regretful.
However, in the Justice League, it's estimated that only Shazam could be so easily befriended by Yang Le. Don't look at Superman acting like a Mr. Nice Guy, but he's genuinely not stupid. He wouldn't believe Yang Le just because of a few Words. Thinking about it this way, encountering Shazam could be considered having gains and losses.
Having resolved this little episode with Shazam, Yang Le, without stopping, once again embarked on the Road to Star City. After all, the Little Broken Car doesn't need to rest. Even if Yang Le was sleeping, it could steadily move forward. It could be said to be the strongest Partner.
The journey afterward was very Peaceful. No more special Events were encountered. Although there were many Superhumans, most of them were active in the City, and few would run to the Wilderness. Yang Le arrived at Star City so smoothly and steadily.
Just like the relationship between Green Arrow and Batman, the relationship between Star City and Gotham is also the same as theirs. You could even use "Little Gotham" to describe Star City.
In another way of saying it, Star City is more like a City in Reality. Although it's a bit chaotic, it's generally closer to Reality. Apart from a few times when there might be some Ninja and Criminals, there's nothing particularly special.
Perhaps this is also why Green Arrow was always lukewarm before the American drama came out. Even Harley Quinn once complained about the similarities between Green Arrow and Batman. In many spin-off dramas where they both appeared, similar Memes were more or less played with.
Unlike Central City, which has the High-Tech Crime Gang Rogues, Star City's Criminals are more simple and honest. This has led to Green Arrow's Villains not being so famous. The most famous one might be that High Intelligence Mercenary who needs to run back and forth between several sets.
This was the Shortcoming of Superhero Comics in the past. Writers only focused their attention on Superheroes, mostly forgetting the shaping of Supervillains. And Superheroes need to be set off by Supervillains.
At this time, a very interesting Phenomenon will appear. If a Writer creates a famous Villain, then other Writers will use him. A situation will appear where a Villain shows his Face in front of many Superheroes, belonging to one person doing multiple jobs.
