But his father Terrence felt it isn't worth it. So he decided to buy some shares when he have some money on him.

Alex can let Skynet spy but not all company are connected to the internet at this time. And he cannot even use nanobots because someone like Superman can easily discover it's presence.

Clark Kent aka Superman started to work as a hero after arriving in Metropolis for a few months. There is no news of his appearance as well as sudden hike in the shares if Daily Star meant that he still hasn't made his appearance.

But it doesn't mean that he isn't at metropolis.

During this battle, one of the core tasks of Skynet was to keep on a lookout for any unidentified flying object around New York City.

He remembers about the two giants of the justice league which he thought about earlier.

Flashback

The first thing Thomas did after waking up was confirm whether some unidentified flying object flew last here.

' Master, is he really that important?' Skynet asked Thomas when he asked him to check the situation multiple times.

Thomas is silent for some moment and finally spoke, ” In this world, there are only two heroes I am willing to completely trust with watching my back, they are Superman and Batman.

These two superheroes are also the only ones I truly respect.

Superman a humanoid alien raised on planet Earth with superhuman strength, superhuman hearing, enhanced vision, heat vision, superhuman stamina, invulnerability, superhuman endurance, and many more superpowers, with only a kryptonite stone as a weakness.

He can conquer the world anytime he wishes because no one knows his weakness except me, but he loves like a common man among us, work hard, and do everything a good person does in his life.

He helps save a cat from high on the trees to even destroying meteors capable of complete annihilation. He is a paragon of good and justice.” He then talks about Batman.

”Bruce Wayne, aka Batman, is a genius strategist and martial arts master, trained by Grandmaster of the league of shadows himself. He is someone who knows the darkness in human as well as in this world and protects it in the dark.

He is the dark knight who will keep the darkness at bay.” He ends

' Are these qualities endearing for you?' Skynet asked.

” It is not these abilities but their perseverance. The only enemies dying in their hands are the invaders who attack earth, for every person from Earth they have always kept a base line.

No matter what crime they commit they never took the law in their hands. They kept faith in the judicial system of the world. ” he explained but never elaborated further.

' But many can escape punishment because of this?'Skynet asked in confusion why he felt this is endearing.

” The Judicial System is what kept the dark at bay, their acts of believing in it make the people still believe in the good.

When they take the law in their own hands, at that time there will be no one the people can truly believe in, no one I will ever trust. ” he said with a hint of finality in his tone. ' Justice Lords'
