Chapter 396 Bialya
As a Transmigrant, Yang Le wouldn't dare call himself a Hardcore American Comics Reader, but he was still very familiar with well-known Characters like Constantine. He naturally knew that eight out of ten of Constantine's words couldn't be trusted, and anything related to him required extreme caution.
So, when signing a Contract with the other party, how could Yang Le be foolish enough not to take precautions? From the beginning, Yang Le's intention was to freeload off Constantine. At that time, Yang Le already had a Plan in mind.
However, Yang Le was not clear about what Magic Constantine would use to sign the Contract, so he didn't have a 100% Confidence in the implementation of his Plan. Unexpectedly, Constantine used a simple Contract for the sake of showing off.
This Undoubtedly made things easier for Yang Le, because the Method he came up with to not fulfill the Contract was also very simple. That was to transfer the Contract signed on his hand away, which was the old Method of transferring this Contract to the Dimensional Demon God Clone located in the Marvel Universe.
Although it was called a Clone, it was actually the same person. Precisely because of this, Yang Le's act of transferring the Contract was not discovered by Constantine, and Constantine could not have guarded against it. Therefore, Constantine lost to what should actually be the Omnitrix.
After that, it was even simpler. Under normal circumstances, the Power of the Marvel and DC Universe are not interlinked, just like the Speed Force. Yang Le therefore guessed that as long as the Contract was transferred to the Marvel Universe, the Contract would definitely become invalid.
The reality was exactly as Yang Le thought. Constantine wanted to use a Contract from the DC Universe to restrain Yang Le in the Marvel Universe, Undoubtedly wanting to use the sword of the previous dynasty to behead the Official of the current dynasty. It was simply impossible.
This could also be considered a Lesson for that forty-something-year-old man who still harbored ulterior motives towards Zatanna, who was two rounds younger than him. As for whether Constantine would die, Yang Le was not worried at all. It was impossible to kill a Demon of that Level. At most, it would just give him a headache.
After all, he was renting a House. Messing around like this, Constantine's Deposit would definitely not be returned. It was even possible that he would be Wanted by the Police after running away because he couldn't afford to pay for repairing the House. Just thinking about it made Yang Le want to laugh.
However, next time he came into contact with Constantine, he would have to be more careful. He would definitely try to get back the Respect he had lost. He was not a magnanimous person.
But those were all things for later. Right now, there was a big Problem waiting for him to solve.
Putting the miscellaneous thoughts behind him, Yang Le discovered that in the short Time he was thinking, Wonder Woman had not only sent Zatanna Home but had even led him to their Destination. Yang Le suddenly realized that he was becoming more and more accustomed to holding hands with Diana.
"If Constantine wasn't mistaken, then we should have arrived," Wonder Woman said slowly as she descended, still holding Yang Le's hand.
"Where is this?" Yang Le asked, looking at the unfamiliar Environment in front of him. Without careful observation, even the Vision of the Asgardian Gods could only see an endless Desert.
"Bialya." Wonder Woman slowly said a Name. "A Nation under Dictatorial Rule. The President's Name is Luman Hawati. This person was a well-known good Official before he came to Power, but after being elected President, he seemed to have become a different person, becoming arbitrary and autocratic."
"Although the outside world believes that his behavior before being elected President was just Luman's Disguise, and that the current dictator is his true self, the Justice League suspects that Luman is just a Puppet President, and that there is a Mastermind behind him who is the one truly ruling this Nation."
Wonder Woman took out the Parchment again, unfolded it, and said, "The Location Constantine gave is just ahead, but not far from there is also a Bialya Military Base. In order not to cause unnecessary panic, it's best for the two of us to proceed on foot."
Yang Le had no Opinion on this. Although Flight was indeed faster, both of them were Superhuman. Even if they didn't run at full Power, they would still surpass most Transportation Tool on the Ground. Moreover, the Destination was indeed not far, and walking might only be a few minutes slower than flying.
Under Wonder Woman's lead, the two of them walked for about five minutes and arrived at the Location marked on the Parchment. As soon as Wonder Woman's feet were planted, the Parchment in her hand burst into green Flame, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a wisp of Smoke and disappeared without a trace.
"It seems that Demon is indeed cautious." Wonder Woman immediately understood. "We just arrived at the Destination and it's already impatiently destroying the Evidence."
"Circe is a Witch who has survived from the Age of Gods until now. She is indeed not someone a small Demon can afford to provoke." Yang Le looked around. This place was no different from where he and Wonder Woman had just landed. It was still an endless Desert, and there wasn't even a Building within a few kilometers.
"Step back a bit, Diana. With the Contract, the Demon won't lie. So, in the current situation, there are only two possibilities." Yang Le moved his Shoulders, looking eager to try.
"First, the Demon did not find Circe's true Position. Second, Circe is now hiding in a place that is not on the Ground. It may be on the Ground, or it may be... Underground!"
The word "Underground" had just left his mouth when Yang Le swung out his fully charged Right Fist, his Goal being right Underfoot. The enormous Power stirred up Sand all over the sky, just like setting off a Desert Tornado.
When the Fist made contact with the Ground, the commotion was even greater. It was as if the sky was falling and the earth was cracking, like an Atomic Bomb detonating in the Gobi Desert. Sand filled the sky, blocking out the sun. It took a while for the Sand to resettle and for everything to calm down.
When everything was Peaceful, the Position where Yang Le was standing was already sunken down a large chunk compared to the Ground. The surrounding Sand had been crystallized by the high temperature of his Lightning, so no more Sand would slide down. Yang Le half-squatted on the Ground. Under his feet was no longer Sand and Soil, but a flat Metal Block.
"Whoosh!" Wonder Woman pulled herself out of the Sand, stepping on Glass and sliding to Yang Le's front. Although she had followed Yang Le's Words and dodged, the commotion caused by the other party was too great. She was still caught in it, but this bit of Sandstorm was nothing to her.
"Want to make a bet?" Yang Le said to Wonder Woman in front of him. "I bet Circe and the others are right underneath here."
"If I choose the same as you, wouldn't the bet be invalid?" Diana rolled her eyes at Yang Le, looking at the Metal Block that was only dented after being punched by Yang Le. Although there were tens of meters of Sand as a buffer, this already showed the hardness of this Metal plate. This was definitely not Technology that a Nation like Bialya could possess. Unexpectedly, this Dictatorial Rule Nation was far from as simple as the Justice League thought.
