"Where are the people?"
Batman looked around, but Dr. Manhattan and the tall man were no longer in his eyes.
"What happened?"
Shazam rubbed his head, and the terrifying shock wave flew him away.
That blue man is so scary!
Even the most powerful superhero on earth.
Lighthouse in the world, Kryptonian.
He also has weaknesses.
Such as Kryptonite, such as magic, such as... kindness.
But the power shown by Dr. Manhattan is almost disappointing.
Justice League has never encountered an enemy like him.
No flaws, no loopholes, almost invincible.
"Was that Carl just now?"
Supergirl asked hesitantly.
She saw a raised dark red cloak, and blazing Heat Vision spurting out of her eyes.
This reminds Kara of Superman.
"The Superman I know is not so irritable."
Batman shook his head.
Just now that person appeared, and waves of murderous intent swept across Mars.
This is not something Superman can do.
"Hal, are you okay!"
Barry, who was watching the battle from the sidelines, saw that the battle was over, and quickly helped his good friend up, and then said:
"Luke, his name is Luke-Cahill, and he is also a Kryptonian."
"Maybe you don't know him, but Luke once helped me and prevented the great crisis of universe destruction!"
"He was probably deleted from the timeline by the blue man just like Wally!"
"Only me and Diana may remember some things!"
Hearing Flash say this, Batman's eyes suddenly became sharp.
As always, he captured the key words keenly.
Kryptonian!
Another powerful Kryptonian!
How many Kryptonians are there in this universe?
Batman feels that Krypton is destroyed, it is simply a lie.
From General Zod to Supergirl Kara.
There are also bottles of Super Kryptonian H'el, and Brainiac bottles of Central City Cando.
It seems that every once in a while, a Kryptonian or a group of Kryptonian will pop up!
Batman I have a headache and even have some signs of rising blood pressure.
The increase of Kryptonian means that the targets that need to be monitored and the objects that need to be vigilant also increase.
This is tiring work!
"Flash, can you tell me more about... Luke?"
Batman sighed deeply, and then asked in a hoarse voice.
"Luke? He..."
Facing Justice League's brain, Barry behaved very well, like a student who was called to the office by the dean.
He told everything about what he saw on the set of Marvel.
This is not a secret that needs to be hidden.
"Another multiverse?"
Batman finally couldn't maintain his indifferent tone and showed a hint of surprise.
He looked at the empty battlefield, worry appearing in his deep eyes.
If you turn the hour hand back to three minutes ago.
Superheroes on Mars can see this scene.
The tall man was as powerful as a volcano erupting, and his fiery eyes erupted with light.
The dark red cloak was raised high, and the hard fist was waved, instantly penetrating the dimensions of time and space.
Time is like a complex line that curls backwards, and space becomes a thin piece of paper that is folded and twisted.
The matter Oblivion, shattered, and then formed a vacuum of nothingness!
The only thing that can still remain intact is the quantum body of the blue man.
The blue light energy roared like a tidal wave, but they all separated and disappeared in front of Superman and Iron Fist.
Boom!
A silent bang!
The entire multiverse is shaken!
What seems like a slow process actually does not exceed the Planck time.
Superman's fist hit Dr. Manhattan's head hard.
The quantum body, which is neither material nor energy, is like a watermelon penetrated by a bullet.
It exploded into pieces and turned into nothing!
Thick darkness enveloped Dr. Manhattan.
This is the future he sees, the ending he sees.
He died!
"That's it."
Dr. Manhattan suddenly realized.
For the first time since possessing the quantum body, he felt the threat of death so clearly.
Superman and Iron Fist seem to contain some kind of power, stubbornly preventing the body from reorganizing.
die?
Dr. Manhattan noticed an aura similar to divine power.
If we use more appropriate words, it might be "rules" or "authority".
His consciousness is drifting in the quantum sea, trying hard to control matter, control particles, and restore the body.
After becoming Dr. Manhattan, he will not age or die.
Pain, weakness, fear... these most basic human feelings have been forgotten.
Even Pharaoh Adrian used the energy of the intrinsic field generator to try to kill himself that time.
Dr. Manhattan never felt in danger.
But this time it's different.
The other party is Superman, who also comes from other universes.
The strength is so powerful that it is beyond common sense.
"If you can't reorganize your body from the current timeline, then go to another one..."
Dr. Manhattan decided to follow the curled timeline to avoid Superman's next attack.
His thinking transcends time and space, the possibilities of infinite quantum change.
Therefore, it exists on all timelines and all points in time.
"You have such wonderful thoughts, Doctor!"
Luke took a step forward and took the lead in rushing into the curled and broken time and space.
Bio-Force Field was fully opened, with a Silver Superman template that could drag a galaxy. He easily wrapped this space-time and took it to another timeline.
The Justice League world changed by Superman's eldest cousin!
On another timeline.
After Luke left, Superman walked out of Kansas's small town and became Metropolis's son of hope.
Lex-Luthor took over Wharton Company.
Everyone has a bright future.
Later, Superman met Batman, and they fell in love with each other.
Then Wonder Woman, Flash, Green Lantern, Cyborg, Aquaman...
Form a team together and form a group.
Justice League then appeared, and a bigger villain followed.
The dark monarch from Apokolips, Darkseid looked at this blue planet.
Everyone experiences crises, some heroes sacrifice themselves, and some save the world.
Many villains and Justice League staged the story of the police catching the thief.
This cycle of routines continues.
Until the arrival of Crisis on Infinite Earths!
In less than a second, Dr. Manhattan's quantum body was reorganized.
But when he opened his eyes, what he saw was darkness.
The multiverse continues to collapse and disintegrate.
It was like a furnace that was burning out and about to go out.
One earth after another was swallowed up, destroyed, and trillions of lives died.
"This is it?"
Dr. Manhattan's indifferent eyes flashed with doubt.
At what point in time have you arrived?
Before he could figure it out, Superman's fist had already crossed time and space.
Along with it came the deep voice of Luke——
"This is Crisis on Infinite Earths! This is the day of the restart of the multiverse, the day of the demise of the parallel world!"
Boom!
The hard fist shattered Dr. Manhattan's quantum body again, causing his consciousness to return to darkness.
Luke stands firmly in this space and time. He can feel that the multiverse is gradually collapsing and is about to be swallowed up by an extremely terrifying force.
The stars trembled and everything screamed.
It's like the end of the universe.
"Crisis on Infinite Earths has begun."
Luke thought to himself.
The source of all this happened tens of billions of years ago.
The immortals on the planet Martus formed an extremely high-level super-ancient civilization.
Among them is Krona, a scientist with twisted desires.
Despite the opposition of his compatriots, this man insisted on exploring the forbidden secret-the origin of life and the universe.
Krona's pursuit of knowledge led to a huge disaster that affected the multiverse.
Antimatter Universe was born - a complex world that is completely opposite to the positive matter universe.
Its existence also caused the positive matter universe to begin to split, creating the concept of "parallel universe".
In order to cope with the crisis, the immortals of the planet Martus studied and utilized the power of Emotional Spectrum and established Green Lantern Corps.
Then, other Lantern Ring legions were born.
This is an ancient legend recorded in Book of Oa.
Luke not only knows this secret, he also knows the guardian of the positive matter universe, named "Monitor".
The guardian of Antimatter Universe is named "Anti-Monitor".
Anti-Monitor has always wanted to swallow the positive matter universe, thereby weakening the power of Monitor and making himself the only existence.
Now, his wish is about to come true.
Millions of parallel universes are being devoured and destroyed.
Anti-Monitor's power has reached its peak and stands at the apex of the multiverse.
As long as he uses the anti-matter cannon, he will destroy all parallel universes in one fell swoop and swallow up this unimaginable terrifying energy.
Then, Anti-Monitor is likely to open the door to Omniverse.
You know, after the Crisis on Infinite Earths outbreak.
Even Apokolips monarch Darkseid, under the pressure of survival, cooperated with Justice League.
It can be seen how powerful Anti-Monitor is at this time.
Luke Use Super Vision to have a panoramic view of the destruction of the entire multiverse.
He saw superheroes from various parallel universes trying to resist, but facing the extremely powerful Anti-Monitor, they were unable to cause any harm.
"Solve my little cousin's trouble, and get Anti-Life Equation by the way."
Luke thought lightly.
The reason why Anti-Monitor is so powerful is mainly because of that terrible equation.
Loneliness + Alienation + Fear + Despair + Self-worth ÷ Ridicule ÷ Condemnation ÷ Misunderstanding × Guilt × Shame × Failure × Judgment = Hope = Stupidity, Love = Lie, Life = Death, Self = Dark Side
It is said that this Anti-Life Equation is a very high-level power of rules.
Can engulf any matter and manipulate any life.
It is the most dangerous weapon in the multiverse. Once possessed, it can manipulate others at will, influence their thinking, and surrender them to the user of the equation.
Even multiverse-level existences cannot be disobeyed.
Apokolips's Dark Lord, Darkseid has always wanted to get it.
Holding Anti-Life Equation and Anti-Monitor is the most powerful stage in his life.
Even Spectre, who has incarnated the wrath of God, cannot be judged.
Of course, the scenery is limited to this story.
In the following major events, Anti-Monitor, who lost Anti-Life Equation, was captured by Nekron and made into the total energy of Black Lantern Corps.
The force dropped again and again, and eventually even Dr. Manhattan was able to kill it with a headshot.
The dark red cloak swayed slightly.
The next moment.
The figure of Luke appears in Antimatter Universe.
at this time.
Superheroes are exhausted.
Anti-Monitor's voice shakes the universe——
"Today is the day when the positive matter universe will perish! Your world will surely die, just like those who tried to stop me! Did you hear the Deathstroke ring? That will be the last sound you can hear!"
Superman covered his head in pain. He heard the pleas, prayers and panic in the multiverse, and saw the terrifying scene of planets burning, releasing light and heat, and finally disappearing into nothingness.
"I want to save..."
The majestic Heat Vision impacted Anti-Monitor's armor, but it didn't leave even a scratch.
"You can't save anything, Superman."
The huge figure standing on Antimatter Universe stepped on it, and the terrifying power shattered the celestial body.
The energy shields held up by many superheroes broke instantly.
"I will let you witness with your own eyes how your world is destroyed!"
Anti-Monitor roared, preparing to activate the anti-matter cannon.
Flash struggled to stand up. He wanted to sacrifice himself to destroy this terrible weapon that destroyed the positive matter cannon.
As long as you use Speed Force, you can do it!
"This time, I don't need you to sacrifice to heaven."
Luke appeared in front of Justice League.
Exhausted and exhausted, Superman saw the dark red cloak.
The memories hidden in my heart were immediately awakened, and various images came flooding in.
"Big cousin..."
Finally, all the memories turned into a name.
"Leave it to me."
Luke did not look back, but took a step forward.
The fluttering cloak seemed to cover the entire multiverse.
The tall and straight figure is like a huge celestial body, spanning everyone's sight.
"You are..."
Anti-Monitor Before he could finish his words, he punched him.
The former is at the most satisfying and peak moment in his life, how can he endure such a provocation.
The power of Anti-Life Equation turned into a dazzling light that illuminated the multiverse, shrouding it with the intention of corrupting and controlling Luke.
But the Tenth Metal in the latter's body erupted with bright silver light, belonging to the power of the origin of the universe, and stubbornly resisted the violent erosion of Anti-Life Equation.
Luke squeezed his palm hard, and a star-like celestial body shrank into a ball. He pinched it and smashed it hard on Anti-Monitor's armor.
Antimatter Universe, which was about to collide, seemed to be rolled over by thunder.
Every creature in the parallel universe can feel a terrifying aura sweeping through it.
Anti-Monitor was knocked down!
The anti-life energy that swallowed up many parallel universes seemed not enough to give him a sense of security when facing that tall man with an indifferent expression.
Anti-Monitor felt fear in his heart. This was an experience he had never experienced in tens of billions of years.
"This is not just the end of the multiverse, it's the end of you."
Luke said calmly.
He looked down at the fallen Anti-Monitor and stepped on it hard.
"The past timeline has actually been occupied by Superman."
Dr. Manhattan's consciousness still exists, and he witnessed how Luke killed the creature in the armor.
The anti-life energy spilled out and was directly absorbed by Superman.
"Future! Go to the future, Superman can't find me!"
Dr. Manhattan Qiangzi left this point in time and went to a more distant future time and space.
Wait for his body to reorganize and open his eyes.
This time, there was no Iron Fist from Superman.
But Dr. Manhattan heard bursts of Shocker, crazy laughter.
Hahahahahahaha——
The laughter was as sharp as Owlman, and as crazy as a madman.
Just listening to it makes people feel chilly and faintly terrified.
"Which timeline is this?"
Dr. Manhattan Walking on the desolate planet, he can only see the results clearly, but cannot understand the process.
However, the blue man soon knew the answer.
A slender black shadow like a bat shrouded the multiverse.
Confronting him was a woman.
That's the mother of the multiverse, Perpetua.
She is the almighty god who stands in Sixth Dimension and is the being who created everything.
"World Forger" who created Dark Multiverse, "Monitor" and "Anti-Monitor" who was killed by Luke are the three sons of Perpetua.
This Omniverse-level creation goddess was originally sealed in Source Wall by her son.
But later, Source Wall was broken.
Under the design of the Batman Who Laughs, Perpetua was successfully unblocked.
The Batman Who Laughs comes from Earth 22 of Dark Multiverse, and he is also one of the many Batman.
One day, he was infected with the virus because he killed Joker.
Batman and Joker, the front and back of the same coin, are integrated into one.
After transforming into the Batman Who Laughs, he designed to kill Nightwing, Red Hood, Red Robin and Batgirl, and exterminate his own Bat Family.
And use Joker Virus to convert the son Damian into Beast general the Batman Who Laughs Robin.
After committing all these crazy and criminal acts, the Batman Who Laughs brutally killed Justice League.
It was a bloody and cruel story.
Finally, he kills all the targets of violence, and the Batman Who Laughs prepares to destroy his world.
Unexpectedly, he happened to be spotted by Barbatos, recruited to join Dark Knights, and became one of the seven nightmares Batman.
Today, the Batman Who Laughs has become the most powerful being in the multiverse through countless conspiracies and plans, as well as the "everything is as expected" cheat.
As long as the strength has not been restored after defeating, the creation goddess Perpetua is deeply weakened.
The Batman Who Laughs can take over this multiverse and create and destroy the world as he pleases.
"Soon the Batman Who Laughs will kill Perpetua, and when she is dead, he will exploit our fears to create a nightmare multiverse where there is no place for us."
Justice League's discussion reached Dr. Manhattan's ears across a long distance.
"Another multiverse is about to fall into destruction and is waiting to be restarted again! The future is actually like this!"
Quantum life has no emotions, but Dr. Manhattan still feels sad.
It turns out that whether it is the past or the future.
The fate of the multiverse is so dark.
"Perhaps, the countless changes in Superman are part of the restart of the multiverse."
Dr. Manhattan suddenly raised his head and looked at the two illusory projections that stood in a higher dimension and filled the multiverse.
The Batman Who Laughs, Perpetua.
"It's like a story that keeps being edited out, and we're all characters in the book, so we can't step outside the frame."
Dr. Manhattan seems to have figured out where the mysterious power that makes Superman's story different every time comes from.
That is the higher world of the Creation Goddess.
The biggest secret hidden deep in Omniverse.
"You already knew that, right?"
Dr. Manhattan turned around and looked at the tall man who was chasing after him again across time and space.
"Yes."
Luke, who owns the Superboy-Prime template, has fixed eyes, looking at a place of nothingness.
It's like a host facing the camera, or an actor filming a movie.
"Every restart of the multiverse is the end of a story."
Luke seemed to be explaining, or reading some kind of narration.
"The popular superheroes and villains are retained, more details and settings are added, and a new life begins."
"Unpopular characters are gradually marginalized, reduced to background, and no longer appear on the stage."
"Doctor, this is the truth about the multiverse."
"Everyone is just a puppet on strings. We don't even have the memory of every time it is deleted or restarted."
Dr. Manhattan is silent, he calls himself Quantum Observer.
Use a bird's-eye view to observe the changes in everything and the world.
As everyone knows, there are other creatures at higher latitudes that are also doing similar things in a similar way to themselves.
"What do you want to do?"
Dr. Manhattan asked.
All grudges seem so insignificant in the face of the major event of the destruction and restart of the multiverse.
Since the end of destiny is darkness, then Superman will definitely do something to prevent this bad ending.
"Shut up the guy who made that ugly laugh, and then... take over this multiverse instead of Perpetua."
Luke said lightly.
"Where do you get your confidence from?"
Dr. Manhattan is very confused.
Luke is only multiverse level at best. Facing the equally powerful the Batman Who Laughs and Perpetua who was once Omniverse level, there is no chance of winning.
Tenth Metal's original power, part of the power of death, Superboy-Prime's "fourth wall" ability, Silver Superman's powerful body...
Even if everything is combined, it is impossible to defeat the two powerful enemies the Batman Who Laughs and Perpetua.
"I might not be happy on my own, but with you, it might be different."
Luke said with a smile.
"Aren't we enemies?"
Dr. Manhattan is even more confused.
He seemed unable to use human behavioral logic to analyze the other party.
"You banish me once and I kill you twice. It's even."
Luke waved his hand generously and said in a bewitching tone, "Do you want to see the death of this multiverse? Then you can only go back to Watchmen Universe and face Pharaoh Adrian, as well as the peaceful and boring life."
"Staying here, you can witness all kinds of wonderful stories."
Dr. Manhattan showed a human look for the first time, and a glimmer of light lit up in his eyes.
He was moved.
"Besides this, what else can you give me?"
Dr. Manhattan asked directly.
"A job."
Luke hit the Snap.
He did not pay attention to the Batman Who Laughs and Perpetua who were fighting fiercely.
Even without the help of Dr. Manhattan, through the influence of time downstream, I will definitely be able to unite with superheroes to defeat the opponent in the end.
This is the destined ending of the story.
What Luke wants is to adjust it a little and add his own role.
Lost the existence of World Forger, Monitor and Anti-Monitor, as well as the creation goddess Perpetua.
This multiverse is effectively without a manager, leaving many positions waiting to be filled.
"I have a way to ignite World Forge. If I can defeat those two guys, then I need a caster, an observer, and a maintainer of order."
Looking at Dr. Manhattan, Luke gives his reward.
"Which one would you like to be? In other words, are you interested in all three jobs?"
Dr. Manhattan said nothing, thinking quietly.
In higher dimensions, the battle between the Batman Who Laughs and Perpetua becomes increasingly fierce.
At present, it is the former that has the upper hand.
Hahahahaha——
That Shocker, crazy laughter, echoed in every corner of the multiverse.
"Which one are you going to let me deal with?"
After a while, Dr. Manhattan asked.
For a quantum being without the emotional needs of normal creatures, there is indeed nothing more tempting than observing the multiverse in all directions.
Moreover, he is also curious, what is behind Omniverse?
"How about Perpetua?"
Luke looked up at the slender black shadow.
"I hate that guy's laughter. It's too harsh and unpleasant. I want to beat him up myself."
Dr. Manhattan nodded, a burst of blue light dissipated, and moved to Sixth Dimension.
And Luke also disappeared and appeared in front of the Batman Who Laughs.
"A new face is here? Kryptonian? Superman? Do you need me to tell you the story of how I, Carnage, defeated everyone at Metropolis?"
The Batman Who Laughs, who has reached the apex of the multiverse, is not surprised to see Luke.
After all, everything was as he expected.
He instantly learned everything about this new face from the past timeline.
Superman Big cousin?
Founded a Wharton company?
Godfather of Lex-Luthor?
All kinds of information poured into the Batman Who Laughs's head. He said with a see-through tone, "No matter where you come from, no matter how strong you are, Kryptonian can never defeat 'Batman'. This is an iron rule."
"Hahahahahaha, being able to kill another Superman will satisfy my bad taste!"
Luke just listened quietly, waiting until the Batman Who Laughs let out that Shocker crazy laugh again.
He clenched his fists, strode forward, and swung out with all his might!
This is an all-out blow!
Many Superman Template are integrated into one, bursting out unparalleled terrifying power!
Sixth Dimension's barrier was directly penetrated by Luke's fist.
The multiverse that was turning into nothingness and darkness seemed to have a strong light blasting through it, illuminating everything.
The Batman Who Laughs's slender figure became distorted like a melted candle.
Hit the broken Source Wall hard.
Then, he heard an indifferent voice from above——
"Keep laughing!"
