But at the critical moment of the explosion at the fortune-telling parlor, Dane activated his divine speed, and the surrounding scene instantly seemed to slow down.
In Dane's eyes, the World was like a frozen frame, continuing to operate at an extremely sluggish pace.
He flew into the parlor. Fire light flickered in Bomb Queen's hands, shining as if from beneath her skin.
Bomb Queen could not perceive Dane in this state; to Dane, she was completely still.
He walked over, reclaimed Madame Xanadu's hands from her, then picked up Nimue, and flew out of the fortune-telling parlor with her.
When he brought Nimue out of the house, the effect of the divine speed faded, and the explosion behind them boomed.
But Bomb Queen, at the center of the explosion, suddenly realized that she had lost Madame Xanadu.
"Oh no! He saved that woman!" Bomb Queen, based on the fleeting glimpse she had just caught, saw Shazam, so she quickly understood what had happened.
As a metahuman with only explosive abilities, her power was not yet a match for Shazam. Bomb Queen understood this very well, so she decided to escape.
Although she worked for a secret society, Bomb Queen would not risk her life for such a thing, but her speed, no matter how fast, could not outrun lightning.
Sensing her attempt to escape, Dane waved his hand, throwing a lightning bolt that instantly struck her.
Even Bomb Queen, in the face of this lightning's power, could only twitch and fall to the ground.
Madame Xanadu only came to her senses at this moment, but her first reaction was not to get off Dane, but to hook both her arms around his neck.
"You came just in time." She said with a playful expression, "I almost died at that person's hands."
But Dane knew it was not like that at all. Madame Xanadu was immortal and possessed extraordinary skills. How could she be so easily killed by an explosion?
In the "Three-Body War," she was also targeted by Bomb Queen, but she didn't die; not even her clothes were torn. She was only knocked unconscious and taken back by the Outsider.
So Dane wasn't worried that Madame Xanadu would die; he was worried that she would be picked up by the Outsider.
From Madame Xanadu's first meeting with him and their subsequent conversations, it seemed she had known him for a long time.
Either they had indeed met a long time ago, perhaps he had traveled back in time, or she had foreseen their future.
For a prophet, the past and present are sometimes indistinguishable, but in either case, their relationship should be very intimate.
Both emotionally and logically, he should have come in person.
"I just saw you doing some divination. What did you see?"
Nimue had no intention of getting off him, so Dane let her cling to him.
When Dane asked her this question, Nimue suddenly remembered what she had seen in her psychic vision.
"That's right! The Three-Body War, pandoras box! Dane, you must return as soon as possible; that place has already become a battlefield!"
Rewinding time a bit, just as Dane was heading to New York to save people, other Justice League members also teleported from the Watchtower to Kahndaq.
There, the Spirit of Kandake and Pandora were using their magic to fight the Phantom Stranger.
