Chapter 534: Kill the bats first, then kill the Supreme, I am the only one who can resist the superv
Mobius's eyes suddenly opened wide, and a soft crunching sound came from his body, like the sound of plants crushing rocks when they grow out of them.
The feeling of waking up from a dream swam through his body like lightning.
The mortal Mobius once again found his sanity, but it was too late.
Something huge grew out of its body. He wanted to open his mouth and howl, and he also wanted to desperately struggle to break away the part of the mortal Mobius from this body, but this All in vain.
In the end, he could only watch in despair as every part of his body completely lost control.
Then……
Consciousness falls into darkness.
Superboy-Prime took a step back slightly. He felt that the monster in front of him was extremely familiar. He frowned and said, "It's you."
Morbius, no, or should we call him the Anti-Monitor now.
He lowered his head, and the strange crunching sound in his body gradually disappeared.
Then he raised his head: "Superboy-Prime? I still remember the pain when you penetrated my body that time."
(Note: The Anti-Monitor here refers to the Anti-Monitor and Superboy-Prime who both joined Sinestro's Yellow Lantern Corps during the "Sinestro Corps War". As a result, Superboy-Prime later rebelled, and after the Anti-Monitor was After weakening, he stabbed him directly in the back and penetrated his body).
"What are you talking about? I have never done such a thing." Superboy-Prime said: "On the contrary, you killed Laurie and killed my world! You..."
"A shoddy fake from the Dark Multiverse that doesn't even get the complete history of Superboy-Prime..." The Anti-Monitor shook his head.
"What a waste of time."
He raised his palms towards Superboy-Prime, but then the next second.
puff!
Superboy's fist pierced his chest like a nail, and a large amount of blood-like energy splashed out from the back of his heart.
The Anti-Monitor looked expressionlessly at his chest, which had been punched through by Superboy Prime: "It's really unexpected. It's a bit troublesome."
"Come on, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
Superboy-Prime threw a flying punch, and the Anti-Monitor's head flew away. But at this point, his head flying in the air showed no change in expression.
"Quite troublesome."
So at the same time.
The lowest level of the world's melting pot.
"Barbatos."
"Barbatos!"
In the dim light after the World Forge was extinguished, the half-asleep dragon opened his eyes again. He heard the calling voice, which was far more urgent than what he had heard before.
"I need your help. I can't shake history now."
Barbatos knew what the Anti-Monitor meant. In the first crisis (Note: Crisis on Infinite Earths), the Anti-Monitor died and was defeated by the heroes of the Golden Age at the cost of their lives.
After experiencing a large number of events (note: the large number of events here refer to "Sinestro Corps War", "Blackest Night", etc.), the Anti-Monitor was reborn in the dislocated reality caused by Barry Allen, And then quickly killed again.
(Note: The dislocated reality caused by The Flash refers to the New 52 reboot. During this period, the resurrected Anti-Monitor was not only demoted to mortal Mobius, but also the major event at the end of the New 52 period "Darkseid". During the War, Steve was killed by Greer controlling the anti-life equation, leaving only one brain, and he entered the resurrection cool-down period again, so miserable).
(It is worth noting that during the major event "Dark Nights: Metal", the only remaining brain of the Anti-Monitor was also used by Barbatos. At the end of this major event, the Laughing Bat of the Dark Knights Trying to use the Anti-Monitor's astral brain to contact the Monitor to return the universe to darkness).
Therefore, the Anti-Monitor at this time, in this timeline, strictly speaking, has only one brain left. The terrifying demon god who fought against the powerful heroes of the universe during the first crisis was in the state of the anti-monitor in the upper reaches of the hyper-time stream.
The Anti-Monitor wants to project power from upstream and change history by reversing his failure in the first crisis. This is equivalent to his wanting to erase all subsequent universe restarts from the hypertime flow.
What is the difference between this and the foundation becoming self-aware and wanting to tear down the upper floor of the house and build a new one?
I don't know how difficult it is to do this, even for anti-monitors.
So the Anti-Monitor needs the assistance of Barbatos. They are now located in the Dark Multiverse. He needs Barbatos to prove to the hyper-time flow that the Anti-Monitor in front of him is just a "projection generated in the Dark Multiverse"——
Rather than "the error of going upstream from the hypertime stream will cause a paradox."
Through this layer of disguise, the Anti-Monitor can reasonably and legally project power from upstream to the body under his control on this timeline, instead of appearing similar to——
"Looking at the super time flow, no, the Anti-Monitor should not be dead now with only one brain left. What is going on with the complete body in front of me? In reality, two real Anti-Monitors cannot appear at the same time. It’s broken, there’s a paradox in history, no, I have to repair myself, erase the anti-monitor in front of me!”
The anti-monitors spent a long time and all their efforts were in vain.
He originally thought that he only needed to arrive successfully, and with just a little bit of power, he could deal with the Superboy and Batman in front of him - after all, this was the Dark Multiverse, so what power could they have?
But Superboy-Prime quickly taught him never to underestimate any Superboy-Prime.
Even though the one in front of him is a bit unlike the one he has dealt with before, it is almost evenly matched in terms of strength. It may be slightly weaker, but it is enough to defeat someone who is not only thousands of miles away, but also dare not enter the body of this puppet. The Anti-Monitor has too much power injected into it.
"Barbatos, you control the fate of the Dark Multiverse. Only you can create a reasonable source for my puppet, thereby preventing the occurrence of the hypertime flow paradox and stabilizing my anchor point in reality."
"Yes, I can indeed do this." Barbatos said: "But what good does it do to me? I have given up the mortal Mobius to you as your willingness to use Batman after taking action. I gave you my thanks, but now it's clear that you didn't bring Batman to me."
"I gave you my heart, even though it was just the heart that I manipulated as a puppet."
"And I allow you to peek into the reality that now belongs to me." Barbatos said: "This is another transaction. This transaction is when you successfully peek into the reality of the current timeline, and I instill mine into that heart. After gaining strength, the money and goods have also been cleared.”
"What do you want? Barbatos?"
Barbatos proudly opened his sharp teeth in the darkness: "Your brain, I don't mean the brain of that puppet, but the brain of your real body. Right, I know that this thing exists on this timeline. Since then, After the war with Darkseid."
"I want it. As long as you are willing to hand over this brain to me, I will work hard to manipulate the fate of the Dark Multiverse and help anchor your puppet in the reality of this moment, so that you can project more of strength.”
"good."
The Anti-Monitor agreed readily. Barbatos knew that the other party's psychological logic was similar to "As long as I can change the outcome of the first crisis, the reality of the entire multiverse will be rewritten. These are the deals that will be rewritten by then."
But the Anti-Monitor wants to change the outcome of Crisis 1? Haha, it's not that easy, but the anti-monitor brain obtained is real.
"I will let one of my men called the Laughing Bat leave my legion midway to obtain the brain according to the location you provided."
Barbatos said: "Next, I will use fate to weave a protective net for you. But you should know this, Anti-Monitor."
He said: "Although the power you can project will skyrocket, you still cannot project all the power, nor can you project too much. These excessive powers will be corrected by the super-time flow, but this is not between us. It’s within the scope of the transaction.”
"I know."
"Okay. I have already weaved a destiny. If you can help me bring back Batman, the destiny I have weaved for you will be stable and become a fact.
In this way, you will not only have a reasonable identity in the current timeline, but you will also get the mortal Mobius. Deal? "
"make a deal."
Night Owl Universe.
The Anti-Monitor opened his eyes.
Superboy-Prime's eyes widened with anger, and huge power gathered in his palms again, and then he clenched them into fists.
The Anti-Monitor held out his hands to him, and in a burst of dazzling white light, Superboy-Prime disappeared.
"Fighting Superboy-Prime is such a waste of power. I don't have that much power or time to waste."
The Anti-Monitor thought silently.
"My goal is to take away the living Batman in exchange for Barbatos helping me stabilize my destiny and no longer competing with me for this puppet that I possess."
"There is no point in fighting Superboy-Prime. I exiled him to the cracks of other dark multiverses, but he will be back soon. Even the parallel universes created by the Speed Force can't contain him."
(Note: What is mentioned here is the plot of "Sinestro Corps War")
"But in this little time before he comes back, as long as I can catch Batman... it's over."
Neither Superboy-Prime nor Batman can prevent the Anti-Monitor's resurrection.
In the long years since the First Crisis, countless major events and universe restarts have occurred, but the Anti-Monitor...
Eternal and everlasting!

"William Hand?"
Chen Tao's eyes widened. He didn't expect that the children around him would have evolved to lie to him. The funniest part was that he never thought that the obedient brat William would fool him. He secretly followed the entire Justice League with Bane and ran into Nite Owl's universe.
It is said that openly disobeying Batman's orders is a traditional skill of every Robin, but William Hand has clearly never worn a Robin uniform.
Did he remember it wrong?
Why do the teammates around him imitate him and play this trick of killing first and showing off later?
Chen Tao didn't reflect at all on the bad impact he had on the team when he openly controlled Green Lantern Hal and put the opponent into a baby-like sleep with one punch when he was dealing with Darkseid last time.
He just turned to look at Bain:
"Bain, are you following him to lie to me?"
Being stared at by Batman, the muscular Bane stood behind William Hand with an expressionless expression: "I came here with William."
Chen Tao was speechless for a moment.
Whether Bane or William are strictly speaking, one of them was a villain and the other was a civilian, and they are not the official giants of the Justice League. Therefore, when conducting the Justice League meeting, he naturally excluded them.
He didn't even want to bring the Justice League, let alone the two of them.
"What do you have to say, Bain?" Chen Tao couldn't talk to the child William, so he pointed the finger directly at Bain again, but he didn't expect William to stand in front of him.
"Come on, Batman. I controlled the whole thing." William Hand said, "Why did you deliberately not let me participate in the battle? Isn't it the black light ring you thought you forged?"
He revealed in one sentence why Chen Tao dared to keep William Hand in his own universe, and said without mercy:
"You restarted through time, met the Black Death Emperor, and then collected a little of his power to forge an incomplete Black Lantern ring through the Green Lantern Planet Mogo."
"But if you think that you can summon the Black Death Emperor with that incomplete ring, you are totally wrong."
"I can summon."
Batman was still arrogant, but William Hand shook his head.
"I know you can definitely do it. If I'm not wrong, it comes from some power of the Black Death, but no matter what you do, you can't attract more power from the Black Death Emperor than I did after I committed suicide."
William Hand said: "Only I can make the Black Death come."
"Listen William, I asked you to commit suicide before because I was sure to restart the timeline and drive back the Black Death Emperor..."
William stayed true to Batman's explanation and simply said: "You need me."
"And excluding me is a sign of arrogance."
He stared at Batman closely, and Chen Tao looked at him for a while.
William said softly: "I beg you. Give me a chance to fight with you."
Then the next moment, his words changed to a dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water: "Anyway, I have followed you now, and you can't send me back."
"Okay." Batman finally gave in and said, "But you have to protect yourself... If everything goes well, I don't need your power."
