Chilling Realization

"Little Barry Allen ran for so long, how much power did he charge for you?"

Hearing Zhang Ye's question, Miss Minutes blinked and immediately replied, "According to the tests, the current power level is 63%, and most of the function usage permissions have been unlocked."

"Sixty-three percent, huh? How is this 'power level' calculated? And how is it usually consumed?"

"Under normal circumstances, the power consumption can be negligible. Even supplying power to my existence wouldn't consume much, because, strictly speaking, the Time Twister's primary function is to traverse timelines. The other functions are secondary and don't consume much power."

Miss Minutes spun around, showing off her body, and continued.

"As for the calculation of power, it's divided by energy. 1% of the power is roughly equivalent to the total energy of a small-scale star explosion. However, different energies charge the power differently. Some magical energy sources will charge the power more."

Hearing this, Zhang Ye nodded thoughtfully. If that's the case, it seems like he'll have to test the equivalent values of different energies for charging in the future.

At the same time, Zhang Ye was a bit conflicted. With the Speed Force boost, little Barry Allen collapsed from exhaustion and only charged this much. It looks like it's enough, but Zhang Ye can't just take the little Flash away as a power bank. This sixty-three percent of power is far from as sufficient as he imagined.

The Time Twister is Zhang Ye's biggest trump card, and he naturally can't give it up. If he wants to use it freely, then finding a way to charge the Time Twister for a long time is a top priority for Zhang Ye.

Currently, the best way to gather a large amount of supernatural energy in a short period of time to charge it is through the Flash's Speed Force.

However, the Speed Force is not stable. This power only exists in the DC Multiverse. If the Flash leaves this multiverse, he will instantly lose the Speed Force boost and become an ordinary person.

In other words, if Zhang Ye wants to use this machine, then he must keep some power in reserve and quickly find the Flash to charge it when it's about to run out, in order to keep the Time Twister usable for a long time.

But it's obviously impossible. Before figuring out the connection between the multiverses, Zhang Ye doesn't want to put all his eggs in one basket. In addition to the Speed Force, he must find other energy sources that can be charged as soon as possible, preferably a power bank to carry around.

Putting aside the power issue, Zhang Ye is most curious about the Time Twister's ability to freely travel through timelines and even the multiverse.

"Miss Minutes, can you tell me about the specific functions of the Time Twister? If I remember correctly, traveling through the multiverse is not something that such a small machine can do."

"According to the machine's production records, this Time Twister has the function of perfectly traversing the Sacred Timeline and various time branches, including three types of traversal: dimension traversal, time traversal, and space traversal."

Miss Minutes introduced it excitedly, seemingly especially happy to be able to help Zhang Ye.

"Dimension traversal refers to traversing different dimensions within a specific timeline, time traversal refers to freely traversing different time periods within a timeline, and space traversal refers to freely traversing the multiverse formed by different timeline branches."

"Sacred Timeline? Timeline branches?"

Listening to Miss Minutes' explanation, Zhang Ye not only didn't resolve his inner doubts, but on the contrary, he became even more confused.

Just kidding, old Batman, the Flash, and Supergirl are standing outside, and you're telling me this is Marvel's Sacred Timeline? What's going on? Has the DC Multiverse become a member of the Marvel Multiverse now?

Looking at Miss Minutes' smiling face, Zhang Ye deeply suspects that this thing seems to be mentally deficient.

"You still think we're in the old place? Tell me, which universe are we in now?"

"Respected Zhang Ye, we are of course in the Sacred Timeline created by the Time-Keepers." Miss Minutes showed a big smile.

After a pause, Zhang Ye's face gradually became serious.

"Say that again?"

"Respected Zhang Ye, we are of course in the Sacred Timeline created by the Time-Keepers..."

"Wait a minute, who are the Time-Keepers you're talking about?" Seeing Miss Minutes preparing to repeat what she said, Zhang Ye quickly asked to interrupt her.

Miss Minutes heard this and was a little puzzled. "Who are the Time-Keepers? The Time-Keepers are the Time-Keepers."

Looking at Miss Minutes' expression, Zhang Ye frowned. It seemed that things were completely different from what he thought, even ten thousand times worse than he thought. Thinking of this, Zhang Ye asked again.

"No, everything can be described. The Time-Keepers you're talking about should also have a look. Let me guess, those Time-Keepers, wouldn't they be three humanoid creatures that look like lizards?"

"Yes, and they're wearing yellow robes!" Miss Minutes said triumphantly.

In contrast to Miss Minutes' happy face, Zhang Ye's heart sank to the bottom.

Things are serious! This Time Twister is actually created by the TVA in his memory, which is the Time Variance Authority in the American drama Loki that controls the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe.

But this doesn't make sense at all!

The timeline controlled by the so-called Time Variance Authority is just a loop timeline created by a variant of Kang the Conqueror. How could he possibly affect the Marvel Comics Universe? What's more, he is now in the DC Multiverse, which is far beyond what they can do.

"Do you know Loki?" Zhang Ye asked.

"There is no record of this name in the system archives. Do you want to create a special document for it?"

"Do you know Kang?" Zhang Ye didn't answer, but thought about it and asked again.

"There is no record of this name in the system archives. Do you want to create a special document for it?" A repeated sentence was said from Miss Minutes' mouth again.

The two answers made Zhang Ye anxious. Originally, he wanted to eliminate some doubts in his heart through Miss Minutes, but what he didn't expect was that this 'Miss Minutes' instead made Zhang Ye's heart even more confused, and even faintly had a kind of fear and unease about the unknown.

In fact, the whole thing has been full of strangeness from the beginning. The Marvel Universe that he first traveled to was obviously a universe about to be destroyed, the kind that was completely unknown. Obviously, that universe either appeared on its own, or it came from a Marvel comic that Zhang Ye didn't see.

But no matter which possibility, the fact that the Time Twister in the TVA appeared in that universe and was collected by President X and placed in the secret room is itself a chilling thing to think about.

In addition, the fact that he can directly travel from the Marvel Universe to the DC Universe through this machine makes Zhang Ye have to doubt the identity of the creator of this machine, or the previous owner.
