412. After the Event Subsides.

Due to some members of the Justice League being transformed into half-machine, half-human beings, they did not enter the church so as not to scare the regular people. Instead, they gathered outside the church.

After clearing the demons from the town, the Bat-family regrouped and reviewed the gains and losses of the operation.

Inside the church, the people were still overwhelmed by fear and the relief of surviving. Only a few young people quickly adjusted their emotions, leaning by the windows, curiously watching the heroes outside.

Perhaps, for them, seeing superheroes in person was more important than the near-death experience with the demons.

When Alex, Kara, and Pietro stepped out of the church, Bruce Wayne had already successfully connected to the network using Bat-tech and sent out an anonymous distress signal.

"It's been a while. Thank you for taking the time to help me. This is very important," Alex greeted the leaders, Superman and Batman, with a nod.

"Don't mention it. You saved our lives and the safety of our people. We don't need any reward. Besides, you're saving even more lives, and we're willing to contribute our strength to that cause," Clark said with a smile, stepping forward.

Alex shook his hand. It was a familiar gesture by now, and the group had become old friends, so there was no awkwardness.

"It seems like you're recovering well. Are you getting used to life in the Wasteland?" Alex asked.

"Yes, it's becoming quite familiar. The establishment of the Wasteland wouldn't have been possible without everyone's effort. Having a purpose, a direction, helps people forget their past troubles. The city-building efforts are already well on track," Clark replied.

Batman added from the side, "Luthor's side is progressing smoothly. The criminal factions are shrinking, and soon, the entire Wasteland will be a united force, with the world working together."

"Yeah, maybe this is the meaning of 'no pain, no gain.' You're doing much better than I did. I even saw that the 'Gotham Harbor' is starting construction, just across from New Babylon City," Alex said with a smile.

It seemed that Batman hadn't forgotten about Gotham, and even in this alternate world, he was doing his best to recreate a city that mirrored the one in his memories.

But that's not necessarily a bad thing. As Clark had said, having a goal is a good thing. All these tasks would help people forget their troubles.

Finally, Alex turned his gaze to the group of transformed heroes, led by Wonder Woman.

To be honest, Alex wasn't particularly worried about the others, but he was unsure about these transformed individuals. Their current appearance made it difficult for them to reintegrate into human society, which could affect their psychological well-being.

It seemed that Wonder Woman sensed Alex's concern and tilted her head slightly.

"We're living comfortably enough. There's plenty of work to be done in the Wasteland, and we've long since decided to dedicate our lives to protecting it. Besides, Batman is a great psychologist, so you don't need to worry," Wonder Woman reassured him.

"Alright. Of course, don't be too pessimistic. With so many multiverses, there's always a way to restore your original forms. Trust me," Alex said in a deep voice.

The mood had been somewhat neutral up until that point, but when they heard Alex's words, an expression of subtle hope appeared in their eyes.

Though they said they didn't mind, no one could bear being transformed like this. They had, in a way, resigned themselves to their fate, giving up on restoring their true selves and becoming somewhat complacent.

However, hearing Alex's words, they couldn't help but feel a flicker of hope rekindled inside them.

"So, do you have any plans for the next steps?" Batman asked. He wasn't particularly interested in Dean and Sam; he just wanted to deal with the issues at hand.

"Don't worry," Sam answered. "Ellen and the other hunters will stay here. They have plenty of experience, and they have connections with the police. This isn't the first time they've handled something like this."

"Good."

Batman nodded silently. Since they had a solution, there was no need for him and the others to worry about it.

After a moment, he turned to Alex. "What should we do next? The zombie crisis is probably worse. We need to make plans."

"That's right. The reason I brought you all together in this universe is for this very reason."

Alex raised his head, lightly licking his dry lips.

"I've already solved the biggest problem in the zombie universe, but the aftermath hasn't shown any signs of easing. According to the Watcher, a small mistake could even trigger a multiverse war."

"So, I need your help to stop all of that from happening."

"Multiverse war..."

Hearing those words, everyone felt the gravity of the situation. The crisis was no small matter—it could threaten multiple universes. No one would underestimate it.

"Hold on a second, Alex," Dean spoke up, breaking the silence. "We've been standing out here on the street for too long. How about we find somewhere else to talk? You can have a proper discussion."

Hearing this, Alex nodded in agreement. Indeed, they were too conspicuous. Every one of them was fully armed, wearing their respective battle gear.

At night, it wasn't as bad, but once daylight came, they would certainly draw attention.

"Let's go to my place. When my mom and I left, we closed down the Harvelle's Roadhouse. There's no one there now, and the place is big enough for everyone to rest," Jo suggested.

The heroes didn't object. After a long night of work, they were happy to accept a place where they could rest.

"Alright."

Seeing that no one disagreed, Alex didn't hesitate. He waved his hand and opened a golden portal.

With sparks flying, a circular portal expanded before them.

On the other side of the door, everyone could clearly see the interior of a tavern.
