The Completed Mission
"Beika City, just looking at that name makes me feel like I'm witnessing countless evils." Batman narrowed his eyes.
"My top mission is to rescue Rorschach from Dr. Manhattan." Superman scratched the back of his head, completely baffled by the mission. "And this one, to help Tiga defeat Gatanothor."
"My mission is to defeat Skynet and save humanity." Cyborg's voice revealed a hint of interest, but quickly lowered a few decibels. "The mission has been accepted. Tony Stark."
"What is the reference point for this match?" Wonder Woman read out the mission that best suited her, "Awaken Thor power of Thor's counterpart, and together with him, slay the awakened ancient god Kronos and save the world?"
She was Zeus's daughter, and Kronos was Zeus's father and her grandfather.
"I am only a demigod."
After meeting Diana, she began to have some doubts about her victory over Ares.
It is believed that this is more likely because Ares was in a weakened state.
After all, her current use of divine power is still very crude; she can only use it to drive divine artifacts, strengthen her physical body, and fly.
To prove this point, she began reading aloud background information about the world.
"Humanity's survival has always been in the hands of a slumbering ancient god and his minions. To ensure the ancient god's continued slumber and humanity's continued existence, sacrificial ceremonies are held annually around the world."
"And then all the sacrificial rituals failed?" Wonder Woman frowned. "This is more likely due to the influence of an ancient god trying to awaken from its slumber."
From ancient times to the present, over so many years, countless ceremonies have been presided over, yet they have all failed in every region.
It is probabilistically possible.
But in reality, there must be supernatural factors at play.
The Flash found the mission Wonder Woman mentioned, but his focus was completely different. "Holly shit! Making horror movies is also a sacrifice, only the objects of sacrifice are different—the minions of the ancient gods?"
"The zombies in Night of the Living Dead, the Joker in Joker It*, the cannibalistic monster in Wrong Turn, the giant bat from Stephen King's Graveyard Place, and the twins in The Shining."
"I've seen all of these movies!"
Could there be such a secret organization in our world?
He saw Wonder Woman, "After all, the gods in Greek Mythology really exist."
"Perhaps the defeated Titans were sealed away in this way."
"Impossible." Batman shook his head. "If it existed, I would know about it."
The global organization unknown to the Wayne Family heirs simply does not exist.
Basil really wanted to talk about Gotham's Court of Owls.
The Court of Owls has always been lurking behind the scenes in Gotham. Gotham is prone to producing madmen, and the deaths of Batman's parents are related to it.
But this organization doesn't exist in this world at all.
"It is my mission to stop the Sea Goddess Calypso from breaking the seal," said Aquaman.
"That name... the one who trapped Odysseus on her Ogygia for seven years?"
"Bullying a woman. Is that something I should do?"
He didn't understand.
In mythology, Coribus is permanently imprisoned on a small island, and to make matters worse, the Fates sends her a hero every now and then who needs help, cannot stay, and will fall in love with.
If it were like in the myth, she would choose to liberate it.
"It should be the same as Wonder Woman's case," Batman said, referring to Wonder Woman's superhero name because of Diana's existence, "It's just a name, they may both be gods, but their backgrounds may not be the same as what we know."
"In some world, Lincoln might actually be a slave owner."
"The mission has been discontinued," Wonder Woman said. "It was taken over by Thor Odin's son."
"Help yourself?"
"What suits me best is to save Alessa and kill all the cultists."
"Actually, we can accept it first," Batman said, having just roughly studied the process. "That way, the mission will disappear from the public mission library and appear in the personal mission log. The mission can start at any time, and no matter how long we are delayed, we will only appear when the mission has started."
"The time of our return will be the very next second after we leave."
"It was as if time had been frozen for both of them."
"But it should be relatively still."
"I have already taken on the task for Beika City."
"Oh, I see?" The Flash quickly checked the quest with 999,999,999 gems.
Meanwhile, Batman was filled with doubt.
"A short Grim Reaper in a blue suit, red bow tie, and black-rimmed glasses—the root of all the cases. Strange, I don't need to kill him? Just stop the crime?"
He did not have a principle of not killing non-humans.
Suddenly, the urge to murder the dwarf Grim Reaper and save the world arose.
Batman's figure flickered for a moment.
When he reappeared, his eyes were bloodshot and he was unshaven.
"Great, Gotham isn't Beika City," he said, turning his head sharply. "What day of the week is it?"
"Sunday?" The Flash instinctively took a step back.
"What about tomorrow?" Batman grabbed the Flash's arm.
"Monday," The Flash replied quickly.
"Great, great, time is back to normal!" Batman calmed down.
"You just went to another world?" Wonder Woman realized.
His excitement at the impending death was palpable. A death god, a true death god from another world!
"You'd never guess how insane it is there," Batman said. "They'd tie the victims to pickled vegetables because they smelled so bad they'd kill them."
"Someone killed someone because they felt disrespected when they sent emojis in a chat."
"Because I am allergic to crabs, I refuse to eat the crabs my girlfriend peels. She thinks I don't love her and I was killed."
"The ramen is so delicious, it's killing me."
"I feel like I want to kill someone because the teacher doesn't correct my homework."
"If you think a building is asymmetrical, you should blow it up."
"If you think it's a fake, you should blow up the plane along with the fake."
"And not just Beika City."
"An America billionaire, fearing that his ancestors would be discovered to be murderers, killed his subordinates who were geniuses capable of developing artificial intelligence and fully immersive virtual games."
"In that world, almost everyone is Joker."
"Everyone is a potential criminal."
"With casual training, you can smash concrete with one punch."
"They are still master actors. Before the crime happened, Miho was a model city."
"What's worse is that time is also out of order. Today is winter, tomorrow is summer; today is Wednesday, tomorrow may be Sunday; today we're still using old-fashioned keypad phones, tomorrow we'll be using advanced touchscreens, but nobody thinks it's abnormal or strange. For twenty years, high school students have winter and summer vacations every now and then."
"When I saw the anti-aging poison, the global criminal organization that was almost entirely composed of undercover agents, and the witch with magic, I actually felt much calmer."
"I even think the Joker is a normal person now."
"He was just born in the wrong environment. Maybe he should go back to Beika City, which belongs to him."
"Yes, that's how it should be!"
The Flash glanced at Batman and saw him press the reward redemption button. "What's this?"
"Customized rewards," Batman seemed to relax even to the smallest pore. "With just a thought, the panel will determine whether you have enough gems and which gems you need."
"Great, obviously I have enough gems."
"So the Joker disappeared?" The Flash asked in surprise.
"Yes." Batman nodded.
After Batman became the first to take the plunge, others followed suit and selected the mission.
"Gatanothor's mission is over," Superman said. "Kill Lex Luthor and stop Kryptonite from appearing. I'm going to see another version of myself."
His figure also flickered.
When he reappeared, his expression was strange, as if he had endless things to say.
"What about me in that world?" Lex asked the question.
"It's really strange, very strange." Superman's brows furrowed deeply. He didn't answer Luthor's question immediately. "The only difference between me in that world and me was that I was more handsome."
"Why should I rush to the Kryptonian ruins after defeating Zod? I've been gone for so long without even saying goodbye."
"He abandoned his pregnant girlfriend for 5 years, and when she came back, he chose to leave her again, even though she had her own son and wanted to continue the relationship, so that his wife could be with her boyfriend, who had just confirmed their relationship during their single period."
"The law is also strange. I was simply absent from the hearing, and Lex Luthor was acquitted."
"You in that world were also strange. You obtained Kryptonian technology, but only wanted to create another continent, squeeze out the other continents, and then sell the land to make money."
"Of course, he still harbored a strange hatred for me and tried every means to kill me."
"Very good." Lex was inexplicably pleased. "In every world, Lex Luthor and Clark have an inextricable connection."
Superman instinctively took a step back. He began to doubt the person named Basil, not because of Lex Luthor's excessive ambition, but because of Lex Luthor's obviously abnormal feelings for him.
He quickly changed the subject, looking at Wonder Woman who had changed into a smart women's suit, "Which world are you going to?"
It's obvious that Wonder Woman has just returned from a mission.
"I witnessed the ugliest side of humanity, and I also witnessed a mother's most sincere love for her daughter, in Silent Hill, which was almost like hell," Wonder Woman sighed.
"You've completed your mission?" Batman, regaining his senses, recalled Superman's mission and said somewhat awkwardly, "Killed someone?"
The way he spoke was like a man with a virginity complex who had just learned that his fiancée was no longer a virgin.
"I was there for a long time," Superman said. "I never realized so clearly that I should kill someone."
"Initially, I planned to wait until Lex Luthor died of natural causes."
"But."
"No matter when, where, or under what circumstances, Lex Luthor has only one thought: to kill me in that world, me, and my son in that world."
"For this, we are willing to sacrifice anyone and cause any disaster."
"The law can't punish him either."
"After his seventy-fifth acquittal, when he pretended to give up but then implanted a kryptonite bomb in a little girl's abdomen, I killed him."
"You did the right thing," Diana said.
Half Amazonian and having participated in wars, she doesn't react with the shrewishness of a young girl when it comes to killing.
Batman sighed.
"Hey, hey," Aquaman coughed, "Aren't you curious where I went?"
He was wearing a white robe, his hands clasped in his stomach, as if he were imitating someone.
"Your attire is somewhat similar to a Tang suit with a Cloak," Batman observed. "Dragon Country?"
Aquaman smiled smugly, "You'd never guess."
" In the Nanzhao Kingdom, I met Li Lin in that world. He was a descendant of Nuwa, the goddess who created humankind, and an extreme the Sage discovered the earth was round in ancient times."
"That Li Lin must be the one Barry mentioned before."
"He's a real womanizer."
He had four wives: Ling'er, Anu, Yue Ru, Wan'er.
"A descendant of the god who created humanity?" This is where Batman's focus lies. "Who is Her husband?"
As for being a womanizer, he has many wives.
This was quite normal in upper-class society, let alone in ancient times.
"Fuxi," said the Aquaman, "That universe is composed of six worlds, and Fuxi is the master of all six worlds."
"A king of the gods, like Zeus."
"That world is truly amazing; humans can cultivate themselves into a kind of god called 'immortal'."
"Animals can also cultivate themselves into human form; in this case, they are called 'demons'."
"Humans and demons are not reproductively isolated. Wan'er's mother was a fox who cultivated into a 'demon'."
"My mission is to stop the Water Demon Beast from destroying Nanzhao. That monster is indeed very powerful, but I have the Trident of Poseidon, which I can control."
"You'd never guess how I accomplished this mission."
"How is it?" Only the Flash asked cooperatively.
Aquaman was not disappointed. "Tell that the Sage what love is."
What kind of inappropriate language is this?
Even Batman couldn't help but listen attentively.
"That the Sage's name was Shi Renjie. When he was a child, he killed several villains whom he had been taught to be bad since childhood, the kind who deserved to be killed."
"His adoptive father discovered his behavior."
"I opted for corporal punishment and accidentally knocked him off a cliff."
"He's just a child!" Batman frowned. "This foster father..."
Even though in this world he didn't adopt a little boy like the Robin in other worlds.
But he still showed great tolerance towards young children.
"Then Shi Renjie began to disbelieve in love and turned to pursuing power and studying the laws of nature," Aquaman said. "When he grew up, he returned to his homeland and began to share everything he had discovered with his followers."
"But because of his strength and Superman charisma, he was not burned at the stake like Copernicus."
"But he and his followers began to be ostracized by conservative forces and were considered a cult."
"The leader of the conservative forces is the general of this country, the adoptive father of the Sage."
"What happened next? Did he reconcile with his adoptive father?" Superman was very concerned, as it reminded him of his adoptive father, who had been caught in a tornado while trying to save a dog and had preferred to die rather than let him save him.
He's also quite abnormal, but he does love himself.
"Later? I obtained a spell from Li Lin. A spell of love," Aquaman said. "The Sage's adoptive father also learned this spell, and he used it to protect his other adopted son."
"While reflecting the power of the Sage, it left a permanent lightning-shaped scar on the head of another adopted son."
"The Sage understood what love is, so he stopped being extreme and stopped preparing to release the Water Demon Beast to take revenge on society."
