308. The Wasteland Federation.

308. The Wasteland Federation.

The candidates Alex chose to divide the forces this time were not selected at random. He had gathered all the most powerful individuals he could, and those heading to the Wasteland universe were heroes who, in the original storyline, had bravely died in battle.

When Clark and his group went to Apokolips, the heroes who stayed behind on Earth to attack the three engines were Barbara and the others.

The two Batgirls didn't last long before they were brutally devoured by Doomsday-like creatures. Shazam also met a tragic end, surrounded by countless Doomsday parademons. After uttering his final incantation, he perished along with a horde of the creatures.

As for the demon Etrigan, he didn't die on Earth. He had accompanied Constantine to Apokolips, where he was tragically killed by a brainwashed Wonder Woman, who pierced his heart with her sword.

In short, if they had stayed here, their fate wouldn't have been much better. Moreover, Alex couldn't protect so many people at once. It was better to send them to the Wasteland world to fight. Given their combat abilities, they would be able to better utilize their strengths in the Wasteland universe.

The portal Alex opened this time led directly to the Blood Nest headquarters. As they passed through the purple portal, Constantine was quickly hit by a stench that made him wrinkle his nose.

The smell wasn't filth, though. The Blood Nest was now fully controlled by Baron Blood and old Barton. Under their leadership, the once barren factory had been revitalized, and many refugees had come to seek shelter there.

With the support of the Wasteland Avengers and Bishop's Sanctuary, the Blood Nest's development had only gotten better and better.

Old Barton never forgot the plan Alex had proposed earlier. Even though wars raged everywhere, he chose not to participate. Instead, he seized the opportunity to profit by selling weapons and supplies, using the money to build cities and establish connections between them.

The area once managed by Red Skull had now fractured into pieces, with different factions rising to carve out their own territories. The Blood Nest had been affected by this as well, but it couldn't be helped; the gang members in these factions were all war-hungry lunatics.

Fortunately, Barton's forces were strong enough. With the help of Baron Blood's newly transformed vampire minions, they had never lost a battle, keeping all opposing forces at bay on the western side of the desert.

At present, the Blood Nest had two leaders: Baron Blood and Clint Barton, aka Hawkeye. One ruled the night, the other the day, turning the Blood Nest into a constantly running powerhouse, amassing strength.

The stench Constantine smelled came from the vampire minions. It was a distinct, metallic odor that ordinary people couldn't detect, but it was particularly pungent to someone like Constantine, a scholar of the occult.

He raised a hand slightly to cover his nose, staying alert as he observed his surroundings.

"Captain Fura, let them through," came the voice of old man Barton from the communicator. "They're friends, here to help us."

"But..." Fura wanted to say more.

"Relax, I've vouched for them," said another voice through the communicator.

Hearing this, the woman immediately stood at attention and replied, "Yes, Mayor Bishop."

After hanging up the communicator, Fura turned her gaze back to Pietro and the group. She gestured to the soldiers around them to lower their weapons and then spoke, "Since Mayor Bishop has vouched for you, follow me."

The group made their way into the Blood Nest. The memorials to the heroes that once stood on the outer perimeter had been cleared on Barton's orders, and the remains of the heroes who had died here had been given proper burials.

The area had now been paved with stone bricks, though some sections were still unfinished. Pietro could see large machines in the distance, continuing construction.

"Baron Blood and Barton decided to turn this area into a plaza. In the future, it can serve as a marketplace for the outer city where trading will take place. But that will have to wait until after the war,"

Noticing their curiosity, Fura explained, "At the center of the plaza, they plan to build a monument to the fallen heroes, inscribing the names of those who fought bravely, so future generations will remember them."

"I heard from Alex that you're from Bishop's Sanctuary, right? Have you moved to the Blood Nest now?" Pietro asked, intrigued.

Fura thought for a moment before replying.

"No, we're just here helping out with Mayor Bishop. We've established a connection between Bishop's Sanctuary and the Blood Nest, forming a federal alliance. The next goal is to establish contact with the Avengers."
