Chapter 549 I, the Anti-Monitor, am really saving the multiverse!!! Why don’t you believe me???
Lantern One is in jail, but in a different place.
It is no longer the shadow cabinet created by the guardians of the universe, but inside a huge purple lamp furnace.
The Shadow Cabinet is just a shell that imprisons him, and inside the Shadow Cabinet, what truly seals the First Lantern is a building in the shape of a huge lamp furnace.
(Note: For specific styles, please see New 52 Green Lantern Annual 1.)
Batman would be thrown out of Brainiac's light-shrunken Cabinet of Shadows to draw the Anti-Monitor's attention, but Lantern-First remained firmly in his grasp.
He was hidden in the alien space opened up by the Metal Spirit in Batman's body. Lantern No. 1 didn't know what was happening outside. He could do nothing but wait quietly.
Then he saw Batman.
Lantern No. 1 did not show any expression of hatred. He was not a fool. As a prisoner, the most indispensable thing for the scourge known as Lantern No. 1 was time.
After being rejected by Batman for no reason, he was of course furious, but as the Shadow Cabinet continued to be imprisoned, he could easily figure out Batman's unusual attitude at that time, and it was obvious that he was not deliberately taking pleasure in his suffering. , but there is some reason why he cannot be released.
After reaching this conclusion, the hatred of the First Lantern towards Batman also disappeared.
So his goal now is to figure out why Batman refuses to let him out, and then find a way to solve this reason, or let others release him instead of Batman.
He was not in a hurry. He has spent so many years in the Shadow Cabinet. No matter how bad the situation is, it can't be worse than this, right?
He saw that in the metal space in front of him, a large number of tiny nano-robots were stacked up on the silver ground in front of him, and then stacked up to look like Batman.
"It's rare to see you come to see me, Bat." Lantern No. 1 said.
Batman actually appeared in front of him, which made him smell some kind of signal.
Before that, Batman wouldn't say a word of nonsense when he faced him face to face. He started doing things almost as soon as he appeared, taking the sealed him out of the Shadow Cabinet, then shrinking the Shadow Cabinet and taking it away out of thin air... …
But this time, Batman actually appeared in front of him for more than a second without doing anything, and Lantern No. 1's heartbeat was agitated by it.
He tried to keep his tone as calm as possible.
He watched Batman tilt his head slightly, as silent as a statue.
The next second he couldn't believe what his ears heard.
"I'm going to let you go."
Batman's first words gave the First Lantern the urge to cry. Despite the endless years, he had shed his tears many years ago.
He suppressed the surging emotions in his heart and asked in a low voice: "What do I need to pay? How can I repay your kindness?"
He knew exactly what Batman needed.
He will definitely try to grab something from himself.
"I dismantled the shrinking gun assembly on Brainiac's spacecraft. The energy you draw from the emotional spectrum is enough to charge this kit. Brainiac's technology can be driven by energy, and its The compatibility is very strong and it can absorb any energy, so there is no hindrance to your use of it.”
Batman didn't give Lantern No. 1 a direct answer.
He continued: "There's one more thing you want to know?"
Then Lantern One saw Batman turn his head.
"I found Earth-15, your homeworld. Although it may not be yours."
A large amount of information about the Dark Multiverse and the current situation, as well as methods of operating the shrink gun, were telepathically transmitted to Lantern-First by Batman.
Then Chen Tao said: "But if you can save this Earth 15, then the dark multiverse's projection of this disaster will also be erased. On the contrary, as long as this matter in the positive material universe always exists on the timeline , then he will continue to be projected into the dark multiverse repeatedly, that is, it will happen there, and it will be irreversible."
"You asked me if I have any requests, Fu Rong, I do. Please listen."
"I have only one request: I can release you and let you save your world. But you must remember..."
"You can try to save your world in any way, but you should not sacrifice other people's world to save your world. Once you try to hurt innocent people to save yourself...then you are no different from the villain, you can understand ?"
Chen Tao said this.
He knows that he is using Lantern No. 1, and he is using Lantern No. 1 to threaten the entire super-time stream to help him. He is despicable.
But he still gave Lantern One a chance... a chance to save his world.
If it weren't for him, due to the law of cause and effect of the hypertime flow, no Lantern No. 1 would have the ability to come here after exhausting the time limit and thousands of parallel universes. Under the interference of the hypertime flow, even the portal to Earth 15 He would miss it if he appeared in front of Lantern No. 1.
The hope of saving his world that Lantern No. 1 chased never existed, and Chen Tao put this hope in front of him today, which could be regarded as barely equalizing his use of the other party to force the hyper-time flow to counterattack.
What happens next on Earth 15... is Lantern No. 1's own business.
I'm trying to save my world, and you're trying to save yours.
I wish you all the best, even though I know it's a long shot.
But beyond that, what can I say?
If I'm in a position to help you, I'd be happy to lend a hand.
But I can't do it now.
I'm very sorry.
Chen Tao watched Lantern No. 1 disappear into this space, and the moment Lantern No. 1 officially landed on Earth 15, the entire multiverse also shook.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh....
In Fiji, the Time Master holds his head.
"Don't worry, buddy." Golden Pioneer said from the side.
Following this huge shock, the Anti-Monitor watched with horror as a large number of superheroes came out from behind the portal.
Many superheroes looked confused.
"Oh my God." A Superman wearing a tattered Superman uniform flew out from behind a portal with a question mark on his face. He held his head: "Where have I been?"
This Superman's head was a little dizzy due to traveling through the hyper-time stream and the multiverse. He looked around at the various portals around him and the various weird guys that emerged from them. He was almost dumbfounded.
"I was just fighting a monster that landed from the sky. The Justice League just named that monster Doomsday... He defeated most of the Justice League. I was evenly matched with it, and he knocked me away with one fist. Now that I’m out, I’m here?”
The Superman seemed to finally wake up a little: "No, no, I have to go back. Only I can deal with that big guy, I..."
(Note: This Superman is the Superman during the "Death of Superman" period. This Superman is about to be pierced through the chest by Doomsday and die)
Then the Superman turned his head and saw a bearded Kryptonian next to him, wearing a black coat and a red belt.
"????I thought I was the last Son of Krypton."
"I'm Superman," said the bearded Kryptonian.
"????"
"????"
The two supermen looked at each other.
"My name is Clark Kent."
"My name is Hernan Zod."
"Your father is General Zod???"
"I'm afraid so, but I'm also Superman."
Then the Superman turned around and saw a short-haired female Kryptonian with breasts as big as her butt.
"Kara????"
"It's Wonder Girl, from Earth 2, but yes, it's Kara."
(Note: This Wonder Girl comes from Earth 2 before Crisis on Infinite Earths, and is not the same place as Earth 2 after New 52!!!)
The Superman was completely confused. Then he turned around and saw something even more outrageous:
A red Superman and a blue Superman flew over from another portal together. Both of them were filled with questions: "What is going on?"
(Note: The universe of Red Superman and Blue Superman. In a different world before the Crisis on Infinite Earths, in Universe 162 before the Crisis, Superman built a machine that could increase his intelligence a hundred times. As a result, the machine split him into two and created The red Superman in this world married Lana Lang, who was also the first love of Superman in the main universe, and the blue Superman married Lois Lane).
Superman, whose clothes were in tatters after fighting Doomsday, turned around again and saw a new Superman appearing in front of him. He looked at the logo on the opposite chest with some uncertainty: "Wait, is that the hammer and sickle? "
(Note: Superman, the Red Son, whose spaceship did not land in the United States, but in the Soviet Union, was educated to become a communist fighter.)
Superman quickly turned around and saw a Superman with a Chinese face flying next to him: "Hello, my name is Kong Kenan, and I am a Chinese Superman. Where are you?"
Chao in tattered clothes couldn't understand half of what Kong Kenan said, because the first half of his sentence "Chinese Superman" was in Chinese!
"Something must have happened." When many supermen looked at each other with questions on their heads, they saw a Bat spacecraft flying over from the side.
"I just returned to my Batcave, preparing to fight against the Angel of Death, and then a portal appeared, sucking me here. If I hadn't been injected with Bane's venom, and then desperately climbed into me "In one of the few Batplanes capable of interstellar travel, I am now a floating corpse in space."
The Bat spaceship made a sound: "And the weirdest thing is that we are still able to speak and make sounds in space. This is probably because the opened portal spreads a large amount of air to this area."
(Note: This Batman is the Batman during the "Knightfall" period. Yes, that's right, it's the "Knightfall" in the first volume of this book. In this story, Batman's back was broken, and then his disciple, the Angel of Death, created At this time, Batman had just healed his broken back by Bane, and planned to beat up the unfilial villain when the Dragon King returned, but he was sucked away as soon as he returned to the Batcave).
A large number of unnamed heroes dressed in colorful clothes also emerged from the portal, making the place full of chaos.
Then among the many heroes, everyone discovered a Batman who could exist in space without the help of the Batship.
"I am Batman." Chen Tao said, "Everyone, listen to me. I have analyzed the current situation."
Then he stretched out his hand and pointed at the Anti-Monitor not far away: "Do you see that guy? It's the Anti-Monitor!"
"He must have caused all this!"
Superman during the Death of Superman and Batman during the Knightfall period looked at each other.
Damn! It's the Anti-Monitor!
(Note: The Death of Superman occurred in Superman v2 No. 75 on November 18, 1992. Superman at this time had already experienced the Crisis on Infinite Earths in 1985, and the same was true for Knightfall in 1993. Everyone knows the Anti-Monitor, the devil who almost destroyed the universe.)
"Wait, listen to me first!"
The Anti-Monitor has not figured out how to deal with the siege of more than 3,000 people, mainly because if he is really the troublemaker, then he will not hesitate.
But the problem is that Batman is the "virus" who wants to save Earth 15, which threatens the multiverse, and what about him, the Anti-Monitor? But he just wants to reverse the result of the first crisis (Crisis on Infinite Earths) - well, he is also a virus.
But the problem is that, thanks to Barbatos' help, the puppet controlled by the Anti-Monitor now has the identity of "Dark Multiverse Anti-Monitor Projection", and is no longer an illegal account in the current timeline. Even if it is a virus, it is a "disguised virus", so the first "immune cells" recruited by the super-time flow should not be stopped by the Anti-Monitor, but the Batman of the Dark Multiverse!
"Listen to me first, I am not the culprit of all this."
Chinese Superman Kong Kenan was almost about to rush up, and then he heard the other party say this, and suddenly stopped.
"Who is it?"
"Listen to me, the reason you are here is because someone has threatened the safety of the multiverse, so the multiverse itself has invited you to come here to save the world. What I mean is."
Chen Tao quietly said to Superman during the death of Superman: "I bet he will say that I am the mastermind behind the destruction of the multiverse."
The Anti-Monitor pointed at Chen Tao: "He is the culprit who destroyed the world!"
More than 3,000 heroes looked at each other.
The Anti-Monitor gave a passionate speech: "... He is willing to sacrifice his own universe..."
"... All this is controlled by Batman, this evil guy..."
"... This time I am saving the multiverse from destruction! I know that although I was the devil who destroyed the world before, only this time, I am really..."
"... This man, he is extremely selfish! He is the culprit who destroyed the world, evil..."
Then the Anti-Monitor was interrupted by the Chinese Superman Kong Kenan.
"Well, wait a minute, I understand the current situation a little bit. In other words, you are here to save the multiverse, so how to save the multiverse specifically?"
The Anti-Monitor pointed to the blue earth not far away: "This earth must be destroyed! Wait, listen to me first, the reason for destroying this earth is that this planet will cause the existence of the Green Lantern Corps, so it must... The cause and effect relationship is very complicated, I mean..."
The eyes of more than 3,000 heroes have changed.
The Anti-Monitor wanted to explain, but the cause and effect relationship was too complicated to be explained in a few words. The more he talked, the more confused he became. Some impressions were preconceived, especially when he created the first crisis and was already stained with blood debts.
"Batman is the villain of this universe! Listen to me, I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about the Batman hiding behind Superman, that Batman is the culprit of all this."
The Anti-Monitor tried to continue.
He saw Batman and Superman whispering and rubbing their ears, laughing from time to time, and then pointing at him.
Just like Jia Baoyu hanging out with his sisters.
A wave of anger rushed directly to the Anti-Monitor's forehead.
"I can swear to God that everything I said is the truth, not a single word is false!"
He pointed at Batman suddenly: "If you let this Batman go, the entire multiverse will pay the price for it, and you and I are in the same group to stop this cancer that creates a crisis for the multiverse!"
Then he saw everyone blinking their eyes and looking at him.
"You see, I told you a long time ago that he would find someone to blame for everything."
Then he heard the Batman say.
"Ha, fuck."
Anti-Monitor said.
