After listening to Dane's words, Hal felt the heavy pressure on him, but he still accepted it without hesitation.
The connection between the Emotional Spectrum colors that Dane mentioned was actually that Parallax particularly liked to possess members of the Green Lantern Corps.
In "Zero Hour," Hal himself was once possessed by Parallax, so he had the qualifications to contain Parallax.
Hector was still a bit short. Dane believed that Parallax would eventually abandon Hector and turn to Hal.
Now it depended on whether Hal's willpower could suppress Parallax.
And Dane's target was fixed on the nuclear weapon.
He opened the backend interface of Kuaishou and found that this matter had already begun to ferment globally.
All America's citizens were strongly condemning the Military's insane plan, and even the President's political opponents had begun to incite Congress to initiate impeachment proceedings against the President.
A nuclear bomb, millions of lives—how could they issue such an order so directly?
Had they lost their minds?
Dane would tell you with a smile that they had indeed lost their minds.
Because he had the Witch curse the Military and the entire Washington D.C., a very slight, insignificant curse.
You wouldn't even notice it, because it wouldn't cause any harm to the cursed person's body.
It would only make them, when faced with difficult choices, actively seek out the option that theoretically seemed suitable, but upon closer scrutiny, was absolutely not to be done.
This magic was very complex 28; although it had no offensive capability whatsoever, it affected people's subconscious.
The subconscious is extremely difficult to control.
Moreover, the subconscious cannot completely influence a person's actions, because many other objective factors also affect human behavior.
So, this kind of magic would generally never be researched by anyone, precisely because it was so useless.
In the field of the brain, Dane wasn't an expert, but he painstakingly developed this useless magic, all for this moment.
After this exposure, it's foreseeable that the government's prestige will suffer a huge blow.
And the Justice League will be able to fill the void of trust in the government in the hearts of the people; this is a battle for public credibility.
He didn't want the Justice League to become the completely public-spirited, selfless, civilian organization that it originally was, one that any official could suppress.
He hoped the Justice League could become a new entity, widely supported and transcending nations or alliances of nations.
All countries and organizations should respect its status as an independent social group, which is also why he first sought economic independence.
Now, with the help of Vanguard Technology and Umbrella, the Justice League is already completely self-sufficient economically; now all that's left is international prestige.
And what could bring greater prestige than trampling the entire US underfoot?
The entire situation reaching this point wasn't solely orchestrated by Dane; he merely noticed that Checkmate had a similar intention to eliminate them, and he simply gave them a push.
Thinking of this, Dane smiled:
"I really have to thank Amanda Waller for this; if she hadn't first revealed this idea, things wouldn't have developed so smoothly."
And also, thanks to General Lane's hostility towards metahumans, he was a very useful trailblazer, playing a good leading role.
Also, thanks to Martian Manhunter Ron, who is now fighting alongside them; if he were still in the Military's operations department, he would definitely have noticed the generals' abnormalities.
And not like now, where after everything was done, the Witch even had time to clean up the aftermath... And after the Witch finished, General Lane quickly regretted it!
"Oh God, what have we done..."
The President's guts were turning green with regret, but he had no time for it.
His political opponents had already begun to attack him, and now he could only hope that nuclear weapons could really resolve this alien invasion.
The Military bigwigs who had now realized their mistake were also thinking the same.
But would Dane let them have their way?
Seeing a missile streak across the sky, the Coast City refugees, who learned from Kuaishou that the Military had launched a nuclear bomb, were stunned.
"This... it's actually real..."
In the crowd, a handsome boy sneered:
"Of course it's real. Given Coast City's current situation, the Military could only come up with such a solution."
Everyone glared at him.
But the boy didn't care; he calmly raised his phone and began livestreaming the apocalyptic scene of Coast City.
Just today alone, he gained more followers than he had in the past few years combined.
The citizens felt he was crazy; now Coast City was facing an imminent crisis of destruction.
He... he was still focused on livestreaming? Had this industry become so competitive?
"I'm telling you, there's no need to worry at all. The Justice League will save this city."
"Justice League?" someone murmured.
He pointed to Superman, who was saving people outside, and Wonder Woman, who was slaying monstrous insects.
"Are you referring to them?"
"Exactly!" The boy nodded.
"They can stop a nuclear bomb?" someone questioned.
The boy gave a knowing smile, clearly very familiar with the Justice League.
"The Justice League has nearly ten members, with at least three Gods. If they can't save this city, it can only mean its demise is God's will."
The boy shrugged and continued his livestream, and his words were broadcast to the World.
Everyone learned that the super-powered individuals fighting enemies and saving people in Coast City belonged to an organization called the Justice League.
People kept asking the streamer in the chat to introduce the members' names; this streamer clearly had wild sources of information!
"We'll talk about that later, the nuclear bomb is coming!"
The boy aimed his phone at the sky; his phone was extremely high-tech and captured the scene in the sky very clearly.
Everyone, whether the refugees in Coast City in reality or people from all over the World sitting in front of their screens.
At this moment, they all seemed to feel the oppressive force of humanity's strongest weapon.
And among them, the people of Hiroshima must have felt this emotion most keenly.
In the sky, above the clouds, a white light streaked rapidly.
Perhaps sensing the threat, all the yellow Parallax worms stopped and turned their gaze to the sky.
The Justice League also sensed it; all members watched in the direction of the nuclear weapon.
Just as the missile carrying the nuclear warhead got closer and closer to Coast City, a figure ascended into the sky amidst the desperate gazes of all the city's citizens.
"That's Shazam!"
In the silent environment, only the livestreaming boy was still speaking.
But he also seemed to be affected by the surrounding atmosphere, and his voice unconsciously lowered.
"He is one of the legendary Guardians, an ancient magic Guardian, the Master of the Rock of Eternity."
Everyone listened quietly to his voice, constantly refining their impression of this "Guardian" in their minds.
Some clasped their hands, others held their hands to their hearts, all praying in their hearts that the "God" could successfully prevent the nuclear bomb from exploding.
Dane saw the missile approaching; his senses gave him a slight warning, indicating that this nuclear bomb might pose some threat to him.
But this feeling of danger 757 was not too strong.
The God of Death's divinity gave him the ability to freely enter and exit the realms of life and death, and his divine body could theoretically withstand the power of a nuclear bomb explosion, so it was understandable that the nuclear bomb posed a relatively low threat to him.
He wanted to test whether he had made greater progress after learning so much magic knowledge and acquiring divine power compared to his former self.
So he flew towards the missile.
Under everyone's gaze, Dane approached the missile, then, relying on his physical strength, lifted the nuclear bomb and flew higher into the sky.
"He's holding it!"
Everyone in Coast City widened their eyes; some Parallax worms, perhaps thinking there was an opportunity, also flew into the sky, attempting to follow behind Dane and pick up scraps.
He flew higher and higher, until Dane and the missile were completely obscured by the clouds.
The people on the ground could only see faint shadows and the yellow monsters rushing forward one after another beneath the clouds.
Suddenly, a Sun lit up, and a violent Impact wave dispersed the clouds; the sky seemed to be torn apart!
Countless monsters were melted into nothingness by the high temperature.
Then came a huge roar from the sky, far louder and fiercer than thunder.
Boom—!
The wind pressure swept downwards, disheveling countless people's hair; the light of the small Sun was so dazzling that it was impossible to look directly at it.
"Dane!" Diana couldn't help but exclaim.
Although Dane had told her beforehand that he would be fine, how could she not worry?
But in the place where the small Sun lit up, an inconspicuous Shadow appeared there.
Against the light, his back gradually grew taller.
When the light of the nuclear explosion dissipated, Dane's figure was completely revealed to everyone.
Shazam, unharmed!
