Chapter 77 Destroy Everything! Destroyer of the World!

In the miniature universe created by Brainiac, Ke Wen, who is located in the Hall of Justice on Earth, listened to the old 52 Superman telling the truth of the universe, and felt as if he had been struck by lightning, especially when he looked at the man in front of him who was over half a year old. Hundreds of Superman, he can't be connected with the so-called time remnants at all, all of this is a bit too unbelievable.

"Do you know what you are talking about, Superman, the time remnant? Can the time remnant burn down your strength? Will the time remnant also age with the passage of time? This is not the way to joke, and why? Is the Flash offering sacrifices to heaven again?"

Sitting there, Ke Wen's hands drinking water began to tremble. Even so, he raised doubts and questioned the old 52 Superman's statement. He had to do this, because only in this way can he convince himself that his three views will not be completely collapsed by the terrible fact in front of him.

"It's really strange. You clearly guessed it, but when I said it, why did you use all kinds of doubts to overthrow your own idea?"

The old 52 Superman didn't feel uncomfortable about being a time remnant. Instead, he watched Ke Wen's performance and teased him there.

"Guess this kind of thing, you can guess whatever you want, but when the guess is true, anyone will be scared, okay, especially what you are talking about now, it is the planet under my feet, including you All the lives in my life are remnants of the past, I can't do it, I have to take it easy, there are too many exciting things on this trip to the multiverse, and I can't handle it."

Compared to the plainness of the old 52 Superman, Ke Wen covered his face with his hands and took a deep breath. Starting from bringing the old 52 Wally back from the dark multiverse, several major events made his brain almost overwhelmed. Although it didn't happen all at once, and there was a break in the middle, but it was a bunch of historical leftovers from the past universe, which was really difficult.

The old 52 Superman was also sitting there, looking at Ke Wen with interest, drinking coffee, and silently counting the time.

"How about it, have you slowed down enough?"

"Well, that's enough. Since you keep me here, there are some things that only I can do. Let's talk about everything here, the reason you use it as the time remnant, and what you want me to do."

"The psychological quality is good, but the newborns in the new universe are different."

I praised Ke Wen for being able to adjust his mentality so quickly, snapped his fingers, and the artificial intelligence installed in the Justice League headquarters in the Hall of Justice also made Ke Wen a cup of hot tea, so that Ke Wen could calm down and listen to him talk about all this .

"I know you find it weird, but that's the way it is. I think you should learn from Wally that everything that happened when the universe restarted, there was no warning, everything happened so suddenly, me, Batman, the entire alliance, the earth There was no resistance at all, and it was turned into fragments during the restart of the universe. I can tell you that what Wally saw was not an illusion. At that moment, all of us did die.

Only Wally, protected by some kind of power, was enclosed in the Speed ​​Force, wandering in the gap between the restart and rebirth of the universe. In fact, all of this is not accidental. At that time, we were indeed dead, but you who have the speed force should understand that for most existences, death is an instant thing. It is a process that can be extended indefinitely. "

Ke Wen also nodded to the old 52 Superman's statement. It's not like he hasn't experienced this kind of thing before. The reverse lightning that he encountered in the flashpoint timeline before was not when he was headshot by Flashpoint Batman. Using the speed force to lengthen this process, and then differentiate into time remnants, trying to reverse the fact that he died.

Reversible Lightning itself is a speedster who has thoroughly studied the speed force. Ke Wen is not surprised that he can do this. Now in front of Ke Wen, the death process of people on the entire earth has been infinitely prolonged by this trick by the Flash. As a producer of the speed force, they really do whatever they want.

"Not as crazy as you think,

As you can see, Barry paid the price, he completely assimilated himself to the Speed ​​Force to fix us time remnants. "

The old 52 Superman, who understood what Ke Wen was thinking at this time, also clarified the situation, and at the same time continued to talk about the next thing.

"So like you just saw, everyone survived in this way, but Barry didn't. Of course, not all, as far as I know, the clown of our universe does not appear in the way of time remnants On Earth, obviously, Barry had his own choices when pulling people. Maybe it was to compensate for Barry's assimilation with the Speed ​​Force, so Wally was able to survive, in a living way."

"I know these things, but there are still some things I don't know. I'm curious, if the Flash of the previous universe prolongs your death in this way, allowing you to exist as time remnants, then, you, Will everyone on this earth be resurrected, at some point in the future."

Speaking of this, Ke Wen's expression also became serious. The example of reverse lightning is in front of him. The death process is infinitely prolonged. As long as he finds a way to go back to the past and change the ending of death, he will naturally be resurrected. What kind of method and what kind of power is needed to do it with an entire earth plus so many superheroes.

"This is the second key point I want to say. The answer is that none of us can be resurrected." Regarding Ke Wen's question, the old 52 Superman also calmly stated his current situation, with a bit of ease.

"You should be clear that one of the conditions for resurrection is that the future you died still exists, but our universe has already become the cornerstone of the birth of the new universe. This is an irreversible process, even if the new universe where you live Xia once again sacrificed himself and restarted the universe, and what he got was just another new universe, so the us you see now, to some extent, are all ghosts from the past."

"Then how do you explain the current situation, age, and everyone's state." Pointing to his temples, Ke Wen continued to ask.

"Well, you have to ask Brainiac who locked you up."

Speaking of this, the old 52 Superman also pointed to the top of his head, the artificial intelligence that once made himself and many superheroes scramble, possessed the highest intelligence in the entire DC universe, and could interfere with multiple operations, Brainiac.

"In the process of restarting the entire multiverse, even if Barry sacrificed himself and brought many of us back from past time points in the form of time remnants, we actually did not understand the reason why Barry did this, because the established ending is irreversible, Even if we exist in the form of time remnants, it just prolongs the process, and we will disappear when the specified time is reached. But at this time, Brainiac appeared."

"He bound you with some kind of light, just like he took in those cities with the essence of civilization, and took you these time remnants into the spaceship. Then he created a miniature universe inside the spaceship, a miniature solar system, let you in Did he survive the ship?"

After taking over the words of the old 52 Superman, Ke Wen also finished the development of the next story, and the old 52 Superman nodded.

"Yes, Brainiac is worthy of being a robot with a twelfth level of intelligence. Well, it's not right to say that a robot is wrong. He can already exist as a creator. This miniature solar system is no different from the earth we lived on before. And thanks to the protection of Brainiac's spaceship, we can exist in this life form, able to experience life that we have never experienced before, as ordinary people who just want to do something good.

There are not too many super-powered criminals, and there are no alien visitors who have been giving us headaches. The Justice League is just an international third-party organization, watching over the current order. "

Speaking of this, the expression on the old 52 Superman's face also became a little abnormal, with emotion, nostalgia, reluctance, and finally determination. This series of expressions were all presented on the face of the old 52 Superman, which made Ke Wen even more confused. If the old 52 Superman didn't lie to him, Brainiac did a great thing. He made the old 52 universe survive in this form, and he also let the old 52 Superman enjoy what they should have. life.

"Ha, you still won't hide what's in your heart, it's all on your face, I know what you're wondering, we survived, isolated from the established death outcome, and exist in this miniature universe. But that's not how it works, see."

After teasing Ke Wen, the eyes of the old 52 Superman also turned red, and the power-adjusted thermal vision was released from his eyes and hit his palm directly. And Ke Wen also saw such a scene, the thermal vision pierced the palm of the old 52 Superman, but there was no bright red blood flowing from his palm,

In his scratched palm, there was nothing but nothingness.

"See, this is the way we exist now, and no amount of self-deception will change the fact that we are all ghosts of the past, thanks to Brainiac's Microverse, we share the same home , but what is false is false, we are already dead, and the laws used in biology are no longer applicable to us, whether it is injury or the passage of time, the reason why I am like this is because I want to be like this."

With the explanation of the old 52 Superman, blood began to flow from the palm cut by his thermal vision, and then under his thoughts, it also recovered as before, and even the gray temples that were shown in front of Ke Wen just now were restored It turned black, and the old face became young, and then it turned back to old.

Such a change, combined with the demonstration of the old 52 Superman, also made Ke Wen understand. Brainiac used the microcosm to isolate the connection between the old 52 Superman's time remnants and the destroyed old 52 universe, allowing them to exist as an independent individual in this environment. But the time remnant itself is the trace of the original body at a certain point in the past, not a real life of flesh and blood.

The law of life doesn't work on them. No matter how thriving and energetic this earth is, it's just a layer of window paper, which can be broken if poked.

"This is really an eye-opener for me, so what do you want me to do by leaving me alone."

Seeing the changes in the old 52 Superman, Ke Wen couldn't help feeling bitter. It turned out that everything could not be changed. He thought there was a way to bring them back to his new universe, or to unite with those big guys and use the speed force as a Standards, to open up a parallel timeline, let them coexist with the New 52 universe, in the end, it's all just my own reverie.

"What I want to ask of you, only you, and only you, can do it."

"What?"

When he heard the old 52 Superman talking to him in this tone, Ke Wen also sat upright, his heartbeat accelerated, his palms clutched his pants, and cold sweat broke out on the back of his hands. And the old 52 Superman also let out a sigh of relief, and then said seriously.

"I want you to destroy this world, destroy this universe, and let us die completely!"

After the words fell, the entire Hall of Justice became silent following the words of the old 52 Superman, and even the air seemed to stop flowing. Ke Wen also stopped thinking for a few seconds after the old 52 Superman said this sentence. After a while, looking at the serious face of the old 52 Superman, he stood up and lost control of his emotions.

"Impossible! Do you know what you are talking about! This universe, your existing universe, is the only thing you rely on for survival, the proof that you are still alive, you let me destroy it?! Why! Why do you want to do this! Why it's me!"

Ke Wen can't help but lose his composure. Since he became a Kamen Rider, he has never killed in a real sense. No matter which major event he is in, he has always adhered to this principle. This is his bottom line, but now, the Superman of the old 52 asks him to destroy this miniature universe, destroying the last trace of the old 52 universe in this universe, he can't do it, and he doesn't understand why he let himself do this kind of thing.

"You call this state alive?" The palm spread out, and the palm that had been scratched by the heat line of sight just now and restored to its original state cracked again, revealing the hollow essence inside. The old 52 Superman's rhetorical question made Ke Wen not know how to answer.

"Cause you can only do it, you're special, you're not like him, Dick, they can't do it, neither can Wally, he won't say yes, but you can. Dick They told me that you are a hero in the newborn universe, not in the past, only in this newborn universe, it is most appropriate and appropriate for you to do this.”

"Just because it's appropriate, you let me destroy 7 billion lives on the earth? Have you asked other people, do you think this is not living? But living is a matter of free self-examination. Can you cry? Can laugh, have their own life, everyone here is like this, then they are living beings, including you, but now you let me destroy all this? Do you know what you are talking about, Superman!"

Ke Wen's words made the old 52 Superman stunned, and then he showed his unique sunny smile.

"You can still laugh at this time!"

"Ha, it's a great feeling to be told that we are still alive. I know this is hard for you to accept, so I will give you time. If you have time, go for a walk and tell me your answer. Yes, I don't force it."

Walking forward, the old 52 Superman, who was a head taller than Ke Wen, looked at Ke Wen's young face. He originally wanted to pat Ke Wen's head like an elder, but after thinking about it, he patted Ke Wen on the shoulder. Then he left straight away, leaving Ke Wen alone, in this empty hall of justice, staring at the statue in a daze.
