Chapter 708 What you see is the fact... but not the truth!
boom!!!!
In some corner of the trans-time flow, the world trembled, and the setting sun melted into gold.
Under the ever-burning sunset, the guardian of the DC universe, the emergency self-rescue program of the hypertime flow, the mind robot known as "Mind Superman," punched the roaring "Dark Watcher" Mandrak's head, causing it to snap back.
But the next moment, this monster, corrupted by drinking the celestial blood produced by [Papetua, the Mother of the Multiverse], grabbed Superman's arms again, and then let out a sinister laugh:
"Hehehehe..."
But the next moment, the Mind Overlord broke free from his attack.
Time froze at that moment, and the Superhuman of Thought broke through the gap in the super-time flow, about to rush into the downstream of the super-time flow in his prime.
He once did something like that. After Batman: Dragon caused a huge mess on Earth-15, another Superman from a different timeline, who was about to perish after killing his enemies, broke through the hypertime flow to stabilize it.
But now, after that accident, the Hypertime Flow has suffered a second hemorrhage, and he has no choice but to leave once before mutual destruction to repair the downstream of the Hypertime Flow.
This will inevitably deplete his power, ultimately affecting the established fact in the trans-timeline that "Mind Robot and Mandrakrond will perish together," but Mind Robot has no other choice.
He was forced to leave the history he guarded to rescue those in crisis downstream, but at that moment, he saw a huge blue giant appear before him.
"Dr. Manhattan," said Mind Control, "you shouldn't stop me."
If Superman had emotions, he would have sensed something was wrong, but he didn't. He was born to protect the DC multiverse.
So his voice was indifferent: "You are an enemy of the multiverse."
He launched a direct attack on Dr. Manhattan.
"Feel sorry."
Dr. Manhattan's voice was as indifferent as his:
"By taking 10 years, I've discovered that Superman is the center of the entire multiverse. But I'm also curious... if someone forcibly took that center away."
"What will happen next?"
A flash of blue light, and Mind Control reappeared in his original history, as if his attempt to salvage the situation had never happened.
"I just..." He was about to recall Dr. Manhattan's memories, but the next moment, the Dark Watcher Mandrak's fist slammed into his face.
Superman of Thought grabbed the opponent's fist, and even under such an attack, its programming continued to run: "To save the multiverse... I need to kill Mandrake, I need to kill Dr. Manhattan..."
With a buzzing sound, another burst of blue light appeared.
The Mind Overlord repeated his previous actions, grabbing Mandrak's fist again: "Save the multiverse..."
Another flash of blue light appeared.
A burst of blue light.
Let's do it again.
I don't know how many times I repeated it.
After the program tried to run countless times but failed, the Mind Overlord finally stopped giving commands.
His memory was altered, and history was smoothed over again.
"...I need to kill Mandrake...I...I need to crush him now."
This is the end.
The final self-rescue operation in the time-traveling world...
It has been cut off.
……
……
……
When the world's forgers decide to carry out their plans, it is tantamount to deliberately pushing themselves into a period of weakness.
Therefore, the World Forgers did many things to prevent their mother from escaping from the Origin Wall and from the invasion of the Void Hand.
For example, by actively guiding the Void Hand's malevolent nobles to invade the DC Universe, he facilitated the establishment of the superhero team "Avatars of Justice".
This is equivalent to giving the DC universe a vaccine, and also cutting off the Void Hand's tentacles reaching into the DC universe.
As for the multiverse's mother, Papetua, he had also made calculations. In any case, neither of them should have the ability to interfere with the current state of the Hypertime Flow under the current circumstances. But that's how it happened. There must be some factor that even the World Forgers had not collected that played a role in it.
who is it?
Who brought the Void Hand, which was originally unconnected, into contact with Papetua, who was imprisoned on the Origin Wall?
Faced with such immense damage, the super-time flow should have desperately launched a counterattack. Where did this counterattack go? Who stopped it?
Could it be that blue-haired bald doctor?
The world's foundries remained indifferent.
These are all just speculations. The truth is that the past of the trans-time flow [Multiverse Fusion] has changed, which in turn has affected the present of the trans-time flow. This has disrupted his plans, but it doesn't mean that it has no benefits for him.
The ultimate goal of the World Forger is to destroy the Hypertime Stream and the entire multiverse, and then replace it with the Infant Multiverse that he created.
The reason he hadn't dared to touch the Hypertime Stream before was simply that if he destroyed the Hypertime Stream, he wouldn't have the materials to forge his own universe.
such as:
There is no Superman in his multiverse.
This is the biggest problem he's facing right now. Superman is the core of the multiverse. The world builders have been collecting other materials, but it just takes time. However, a Superman who is strong enough, or rather, idealistic enough, cannot be conjured up by the world builders.
Therefore, in the original plan, the World Builder planned to take on the role of this "superman," that is, to use himself, a sixth-dimensional god, as the core of the Infant Multiverse, and then draw on other energy from the Hypertime Stream as much as possible to make up for it.
This is actually a demotion. He doesn't have the ability to create a strong enough core like the multiverse's mother, Papetua, so he has to do it himself. This makes him unable to be as powerful as his mother in the new multiverse, but it's better than failing at everything.
(Note: In The Sixth Dimension, the World Forger did indeed become the old Superman in the Infant Multiverse.)
But now, due to unknown factors, they have joined forces to sabotage it. The Void Hand and Perpetua, from the upstream [Multiverse Fusion] event of the trans-temporal flow, have instead given the World Forger an opportunity.
Or perhaps these two beings foresaw the World Maker's plan, so they joined forces and made a deal with the World Maker.
Didn't you want to create a baby universe?
Don't you want to collect the energy that Brainiac collected in the fusion of multiple elements?
Okay, here you go.
Not only will we give you this energy, we'll also give you a free Superman, Clark Kent, who can be used as the core of an infant multiverse.
Are you making a lot of money?
Is it possible to complete your plan ahead of schedule?
Is your goal something that can be achieved directly?
So if you take these energies and cores and leave the DC multiverse to forge your own baby multiverse, then do you still need to care about what happens to the DC multiverse?
Next, whether it's the Void Hand invading and seizing the DC universe, or the multiverse's mother, Papetua, escaping the Origin Wall, what does it have to do with you, the World Builder?
No!
Whether it's his mother single-handedly taking on the "Wolf" Void Hand, or his mother transforming all the creatures in the entire DC multiverse into soldiers and fighting against the Origin Judges "Other Sheep" who came to judge her, what does all this have to do with the adorable and cute World Builder, Little Sheep, standing nearby?
With an epic concession from Papetua and the Hand of the Void, he can forge an Infant Multiverse, even more powerful than the Infant Multiverse he originally planned to forge!
He achieved his goal!
The top members in the entire DC universe and even the surrounding areas, apart from Dr. Manhattan who has never participated in the events, and the Watcher and Anti-Watcher brothers who have already been eliminated.
The remaining two had reached a consensus on their interests, and then quietly presented the World Forger with what he had always wanted, and then politely advised him to leave the DC multiverse, which was about to become the battlefield of the Void Hand and Perpetua...
Given these conditions, what reason could he possibly have to refuse?
Even if the Void Hand and his mother are defeated, and the World Forger who has built the Infant Multiverse pilots an entire multiverse, his status will change from a lamb in the "flock" to a slightly weaker "leader," enough to put up a fight, or at the very least, qualified to escape—in any case, stronger power will allow him to be more at ease in this inevitable chaos.
What's wrong?
Is there anyone who can shatter his baby multiverse with a single punch?
and so……
"Listen to me, I'm afraid I have to admit, I've gone too far, Batman."
"The world's forgers said to Chen Tao."
"Only the Justice League of the main universe can solve the current problem."
He saw Batman Dragon still trying to awaken the already deranged Barbatos, and the World Forger suddenly grabbed Batman's arm and shook his head at him.
"It's no use. My mother's whispers have lured countless powerful beings throughout the history of the multiverse into crises, creating the energy for her escape. Your meager connection with Barbatos is no match for her. My cruel and cunning mother has never failed when it comes to manipulating people's hearts."
"We can only stall, work together to buy time, and wait for your allies to bring the Justice League members from the main universe."
Chen Tao hesitated.
Just a moment ago, he and the World Forgers were enemies.
"Just do it, don't you understand?"
He heard the World Founders whispering in his ear.
"My mother, the Void Hand, they have taken control of Barbatos. He is no longer under my control; he is a puppet, a puppet, understand? He is more powerful than before. If I could fight him before he was simultaneously controlled, I can't now."
"If we can't control him, everything is over. I just wanted to create a new world, but the Void Hand intends to destroy the entire multiverse, and my mother intends to turn you all into his soldiers. These two monsters are our common enemy."
Chen Tao gritted his teeth and grabbed Barbatos from behind. The dragon immediately stopped moving, as if Barbatos' willpower had been restored in this body.
"Are you able to contact your companions who entered the main universe? Can you contact them at any time?"
"I can," Chen Tao told the World Forger. "I plan to share my memories directly with the Batman of the main universe through the Zul'an Batman, so I left a portion of my energy in my allies using fifth-dimensional divine power."
"The energy left over after the Bat Mite held your wedding and brought all your allies over... Good." The World Forger said, "Hurry up and execute your plan, bring everyone from the main universe over, and I'll teach you how to restrain Barbatos."
"And what about you?" he heard Batman say. "If I severely injure Barbatos, wouldn't you be the biggest beneficiary after the Void Hand or Perpetua fails?"
"And the Justice League from the main universe... How can you be so sure they can handle Barbatos once they get here?"
The World Foundry automatically picked up on the key point: "You're asking me to help you restore Barbatos's self-awareness?"
"That's right, no one can control Lord Barbatos. Lord Barbatos must have his own free will."
Do you agree?
The World Forger heard Batman's voice: "You must give up trying to control Barbatos with your own willpower, otherwise I will never help you suppress Lord Barbatos. I would rather throw Lord Barbatos to you, then escape to the main universe, reorganize our forces with everyone in the main universe, and use the main universe as a fortress to launch a counterattack!"
The World Builder paused for half a second, then asked, "Do you really think the Justice League of the main universe can defeat Barbatos, who is controlled by both sides?" Then he heard Batman's reply.
"If I run away, you won't be foolish enough to fight a controlled Barbatos. If Barbatos is allowed to move freely and release those two monsters, your plan will fail. In that case, you'll be an ally of me and the Justice League."
Wow, beautiful.
The World Forger silently praised Batman in his heart. Unaware that Batman had already made a deal with the Void Hand and his mother, Batman had made the best decision.
He was even prepared to tie himself to his chariot of salvation, a reckless fellow, a wise decision.
But it was this very decision that completely destroyed his last chance to fight back.
"Okay," said the World Forger. "We'll stall for now until the Justice League from the main universe arrives, then we'll do as you say!"
They won't do as Batman says. Once the Justice League from the main universe arrives, under the combined machinations of the Void Hand, the Multiverse Mother Perpetua, and the World Forgers…
A plan that would disrupt the hypertime flow and allow the World Forgers to withdraw would be fully formed.
Batman will be the key figure in bringing this plan to fruition; he did indeed make the best decision based on the limited information he had, but tragically…
Perhaps it's the curse of the dark multiverse, but the most beautiful ideas often lead to the darkest and most tragic endings.
He wasn't wrong; he was indeed suppressing Barbatos, and the arrival of the Justice League from the main universe did indeed turn the tide.
But sometimes what people see is the fact, not the truth.
"How much longer until you bring the people from the main universe here?"
"It'll be there soon, almost there."
"how long?"
"10 minutes."
"it is good."
Chen Tao nodded: "They'll be here soon."
As he said this, he took a deep breath.
