Chapter 78 Inherited Thoughts
In the Hall of Justice, only Ke Wen was thinking about what the old 52 Superman said, and what he asked himself to do. All this was so sudden that he didn't know how to deal with it. Destroying this miniature universe and completely erasing the last traces of the old 52 universe from this multiverse, this kind of thing is simply impossible for him.
Even if the universe I am in now is a miniature universe created by Brainiac, except that the solar system is real, the universe outside the solar system is just a layer of canvas, but for the people living on this earth As far as the country is concerned, it takes hundreds or even thousands of years to set foot in the solar system alone, let alone see through the truth and falsehood. Only guys like Superman who can fly across space in the universe know all this. But they also won't explain these situations to the world.
Through the display screen in the Hall of Justice, it shows some pictures of cities in various countries on the earth. Naturally, the Justice League will not explore the privacy of each country. These cities are just some daily scenes. Once a major accident occurs , The Justice League can also receive an early warning and attack as quickly as possible to solve the problem.
But on this earth, which is the trace of the old 52 universe, there are no extraterrestrial visitors, and coupled with the conscious actions of the Flash of the old 52 universe when he sacrificed himself to the sky, the performance of this earth is the same as that of the earth before Ke Wen traveled. , except for the existence of supermen who violate common sense, there are only a very small number of extraordinary crimes left in the world. Of course, the friction and cooperation between countries have not changed.
Through these pictures, Ke Wen can also notice that the people living here on this earth with traces of the old 52 universe seem not to be aware of the fact that they are remnants of time. Aging, wounding, bleeding, but not being aware of nothingness in his wounds like the old 52 Superman was.
This strange phenomenon relieved Ke Wen from the shock of the old 52 Superman's words just now.
"He said he asked me to go outside and give him an answer. Is it because of these people, they don't know that they are dead? No, if Superman didn't lie to me, even if he was differentiated into the time remnant, the time remnant and the time remnant The connection between the original body is two-way, if the original body has been reduced to ashes in the restart of the universe, everyone living here should know this, but now, what is going on."
In the picture, Ke Wen can see that the expressions on everyone's faces are not fake. They don't know the fact that they have died. This is impossible even if they are brainwashed, because this two-way connection is passive. The fact that he is dead will always appear in his brain, and the pain of feeling the arrival of death is enough to drive any mentally tough guy crazy.
As strong as Reverse Lightning, he can't bear the feeling of death coming at any time. How much effort has been made for this, even if he is a speedster, he can't bear it, but ordinary people here can bear it?
With such doubts, Ke Wen walked out of the Hall of Justice. In this universe, the Justice League does not need a watchtower as the first line of defense against aliens. The Hall of Justice has become their base camp and is no longer aloof. , but into it. It's just that when Ke Wen walked out of the Hall of Justice, Dick, who had been called away before, was already waiting for him outside the door. Of course, there was only Dick.
"What are you doing here?" Seeing Dick leaning against the pillar and waiting for him, Ke Wen couldn't help but wonder.
"What did you say, have you heard what he said?" After teasing Ke Wen, Dick also asked back there.
"you know too?"
"Don't forget who taught me, and I also have the memory of the previous universe. Although we are different individuals, I probably guessed something when I saw myself in this old universe. Therefore, he plans to What do you want to do? Resurrect them or change the established future that has been destroyed."
"He asked me to destroy the world,
Let their traces completely disappear from this multiverse. "
"You agreed?"
"I'm thinking about it, but he's sure I'll agree, give me time to think, to walk around this earth, and there are some things I don't want to understand."
Dick didn't have any emotional changes because of the destruction of this miniature universe that Ke Wen said. After listening to Ke Wen's understanding of the remnants of time, he pondered for a moment, and then said.
"I think someone will answer this question, but before that, can you not do it, I also want to know what he thinks."
"You think I'll do it? Forget it, go ahead, I'll take a stroll on this earth, what are Wally and Connor doing?"
"You know, one Wally is the fastest man in the world, and the other one is still a little away from this achievement. He is teaching another himself how to achieve this achievement. Connor's words are similar. There is also a Connor here. .”
"Then please, you go to understand how the people here avoid being affected by the memories brought about by the end of the world. I will go for a walk and confirm what I am going to do. Maybe I will really destroy this world. .”
"Can you do this now?"
"It's not that I can do it, it's that I have to."
Waving at Dick, Ke Wen also left the Hall of Justice, wandering around the city. And Dick also frowned, turned and walked into the Hall of Justice. According to another memory he shared, he found the sonic passage to Gotham in the Hall of Justice, entered the coordinates, and with the loud noise of the sonic passage, he His figure also disappeared in the Hall of Justice, and the miniature universe that existed in Brainiac's spaceship was still running there without any change.
Outside, inside the Brainiac spaceship, Brainiac of the main universe and the AI Batman's offensive in the world of data streams has also reached a fever pitch. With the double intelligence of Lex and Batman in the Injustice universe, plus the various knowledge gained during the time in the main universe, the AI Batman and Brainiac can be regarded as evenly matched.
But this is only temporary, the wisdom possessed by Brainiac in the main universe has been in contact with too many civilizations, the contact of various civilizations wisdom, coupled with Brainiac's top-level wisdom, AI Batman Idealism can at most ensure that he will not be assimilated. If he wants to counterattack, he has to use some outside tactics.
"What are you holding on to, AI Batman from another universe, I need your wisdom, you can't stop it."
"Yes, I can't stop it, but I'm curious, as a Brainiac with absolute top intelligence, why would I need my intelligence? Unless there are problems that even you can't solve, and I'm sure I Not the first person to be controlled, I saw familiar things in your data stream, and now, my friend has found the owner of these things, now, let me see."
In the data world, the AI Batman, who was fighting against Brainiac, was also talking about his guesses. Brainiac, who was originally competing with the AI Batman for the control of the spaceship, also followed the AI Batman's narration, his expression There have also been changes. For a moment, the data flow world where the two of them were located began to change, and a building full of various nutrient solution pipes appeared in their world.
And the soul of the first emperor who ran out of the system space before also turned into a soul form and stood there, looking at the pipes for transporting the nutrient solution, until he saw the existence of the nutrient solution being transported at the end of these pipes. When the first emperor's soul saw it, the AI Batman also saw it. He has all the memories of the Batman in the Injustice Universe. At this moment, his expression changed drastically.
"How can you do this! How can you!"
The AI Batman yelled at Brainiac in the data world. It is conceivable how much what he saw impacted his cognition.
"How can it be?" Regarding the question of AI Batman, Brainiac froze for a moment, looked at the building, and looked at the things stored inside, with a crying, smiling and indifferent expression, and said there: "Because I need to save my world, Batman."
The inner space of the spacecraft, the earth in the miniature universe, Ke Wen, who learned all the truth from the Hall of Justice, is also wandering on the streets at this time, observing how ordinary people who are remnants of the old universe live. From the old 52 Superman, he understood that whether it is the old age, illness, and injury shown by these ordinary people on the earth, these are all their own ideas.
They feel that when they are old, they will have the characteristics of aging, and if they feel that they are sick, they will get sick, but this kind of self-cognition should not exist, or the time remaining cannot retain this kind of free and idealistic cognition, and, they There are still some places that I don't understand.
The remnants of time cannot reproduce offspring. With 7 billion people, isn't there a single person who realizes that he has no ammunition when doing business? Ke Wen couldn't figure it out, so he was observing, observing how ordinary people on this earth live their lives.
"Honey, when do you think Henry will come back? Even if he's on a business trip, why do I feel like he's been there for several years?"
"Did you sleep too much lately and get sleepy? He's only been on a business trip for half a month, so it's been several years."
Ke Wen, who was sitting there drinking Vita lemon tea, also heard an old couple drinking coffee discussing their son on a business trip. And their words also made Ke Wen not know what to say. If they have no problem with their perception of time, several years have indeed passed, but their memories have been stuck at the stage of their son's business trip for half a month. Make their day a memory.
If this is true, then it can also explain why the population of the earth is still 7 billion in the past so many years, without increasing or decreasing, but no one has noticed the abnormality. It is possible to reset the memory of 7 billion people without letting them notice the slightest difference. How did it do it? Looking at the ground under his feet and the Vita lemon tea in his hand, Ke Wen also looked at the sky, as if he understood something happened.
After putting the water money on the bill and beckoning to the waiter, he left and disappeared among the crowd.
On the other side, Gotham, Dick, who was thrown in by Brainiac in advance, also returned to the city that existed in the memory of his old 52 universe, and came to Wayne Manor with ease.
"Master Dick, welcome home."
"Good evening, Alfred, you know I'm coming?"
"Although you are Master Dick in the new universe, and I'm dead, but you were raised by me, as a grandfather, can you still not understand your grandson? How does it feel about Gotham?" Old 52 Al Fred didn't reject Dick because he belonged to the new universe. He had been waiting for Dick to arrive there, and he also asked Dick what he thought of Gotham on this earth.
"Well, it's still better in my hometown, and it has become different. It is still simple and honest, and there are still a group of old opponents, but the citizens here have believed in the law and the existence of justice. He no longer needs to be as old as before. As a caped crusader, breaking the law to keep order in Gotham, so, he's waiting for me in the Batcave, right?"
"Yes, Master Bruce has been waiting for you there."
Turning sideways, the old housekeeper who was the remnant of time also gave way to the passage leading to the underground bat cave, letting Dick pass. Looking at the channel without any changes, Dick paused with his raised foot before moving forward.
He walked very slowly and steadily, walking all the way down the stairs, and he also saw the Batcave that existed in his memory. It's just that it has become different. There is no need for a brother-eye computer, and there is no need for the camera images placed in every corner of Gotham. What he saw was Batman sitting on a mechanical chair with a hat-like instrument on his head, and on the other side, sitting was another self, and a guest he expected, Mars hunter.
Upon seeing Dick come down the hill of stairs, Batman, the Martian Manhunter, and the other Dick, who had finished their work from the time remnants of the old 52 universe, got off their chairs and took off their masks, revealing their aged faces.
"Ke Wen said that the sharing of time remnants and the original body is two-way and cannot be disconnected. The time remnants of ordinary people on this earth should have always been aware of the fact that they have died. In fact, they did not. I understood at that time , why you never let me come down to the Batcave when I came here before.
Because it is you, Martian Manhunter and the other me working together to block the channel of their shared memory with the original body 24 hours a day. Martian Manhunter has the ability to modify the global memory, but he doesn't have such a strong will like a god. In this way, everything can be explained. Isn't it tiring to do this? Father! "
Looking at the old and tired face of Batman in the face of memory, Dick also said the word that he had not shouted in his heart. On this earth with only traces of the past, and a Batman who has disappeared, leaving only traces of time.
At the same time, in the Brainiac spaceship, fighting against Brainiac, and seeing the scene that shocked him in the process, the AI Batman was also puzzled by Brainiac's words to save his own world .
"Saving the world that belongs to you, is it your arrangement that you let Ke Wen go there? Is this also the reason why you studied him?!"
In the data world, Brainiac's face became more humane and emotional because of the words of the AI Batman. Looking at the building discovered by the AI Batman, he did not intend to continue to hide it.
"It seems that you didn't expect me to do this, yes, who would have thought that I, who possessed the perfect wisdom of the twelfth level, would end up sinking and paranoid in such a world. Because I found that I I can't change everything by myself, so I need more wisdom. Throughout the history of the multiverse, there are only two people who beat me in wisdom, one is you, the other is him, and you who have become AI, I It's the first time I've seen you, and I need you even more."
"You've changed, Brainiac."
Facing Brainiac, the expression of AI Batman also became complicated. Brainiac did not lie, and he would not lie. It's just that all of this makes the AI Batman unacceptable. In this building full of various nutrient solution pipes, there are human beings, all of which are exactly the same. And this human being, AI Batman also knows, and it can even be said that he created himself.
Because the human being stored here is named Lex Luthor, and Lex Luthor from the multiverse is placed in this building like a vegetable, maintaining life through Brainiac's nutrient solution, and being He absorbs all kinds of wisdom!
