Chapter 558: Dr. Manhattan's horrific experiment, the advent of the superhuman mind! The gateke
I'm Dr. Manhattan.
I just witnessed a multiverse act of self-rescue.
By reversing cause and effect, restarting the timeline, smearing the timeline, etc., I witnessed how a Batman from the dark multiverse forcibly used the entire multiverse as a wishing machine by manipulating the life gate of the multiverse—
And how this wishing machine collapsed because it could not meet the "compulsory wishing demand".
And, of course, in the end, how did Batman realize this and then achieve balance with the multiverse by reducing his "forced wishing need".
All of this is extremely mysterious. When I stood outside the timeline and looked down at the entire hyper-time flow, which was a wonderful emergency self-rescue, I benefited a lot from all of this.
Now, the past and the future are completely stable, the new hypertime loop has been completed, and the Dark Multiverse Batman has made his last choice to make the loop complete, and things have settled... But.
I have a bold idea.
What if I take action to block this closed loop of the timeline? What if I gave Batman another choice when he made the final choice to "make the time loop complete"?
In this way, the entire closed loop just constructed by the hypertemporal flow completely collapsed. In the previous experiment, I found that even if I took away ten years, I could not shake the universe. But if I block this space-time closed loop now, will it cause the self-collapse of the hyper-temporal flow? Or is it reorganized again to create endless new possibilities?
This overwhelming curiosity led me to make a decision, and although I wasn't sure if this decision would have any consequences, it was just an experiment... and I was going to do it.
So I saw the future.
In an instant, the entire multiverse reacted because of my decision. A large number of timelines stretched like crazy in front of me, stretching like branches. The entire multiverse was wailing because of my decision! Screaming!
It was like a death row prisoner tied to the guillotine, struggling desperately as he watched the knife fall!
But none of this can change my will or shake my decision.
I really did that, so...
Dust falls.
Countless galaxies dissipate like smoke, everything is no longer obscured by gauze and fog, and is clear and bright.
The sky and the earth collided, and the ear-piercing roar was like a cosmic alarm, a final cry for help.
From an unknown direction, there was a sound that sounded like gasping, like a dying old man exhaling his last breath.
The entire hypertime flow was pushed by Dr. Manhattan and teetered.
In an instant, the outline of Dr. Manhattan's space could no longer be seen or explained clearly, but it was still within reach.
Distance, space, time, everything is out of order, everything is deeper and more meaningful. The crisis of the multiverse is inevitable and extremely serious.
And as Dr. Manhattan steps forward, destiny is also written at his feet.
That heavy impact heralded the end he would bring.
So, what is standing in front of Dr. Manhattan at this time...
"You're a thinking robot."
Dr. Manhattan stared at the broken robot that appeared in front of him. He has infinite power, a superhuman appearance and superhuman thoughts, but he is not superman.
He comes from the storyline of "Final Crisis: Superman: Beyond Infinity". He is the most powerful and powerful version of Superman and one of his most powerful forms.
It is the energy that drives the mind armor produced by the collision of Superman and his peer Ultraman in the antimatter universe, resulting in the annihilation of matter and antimatter, and is activated by the quantum superman Captain Adam projecting the energy into high-dimensional space. The ultimate weapon that transcends everything, he created his own body and created his own existence in a closed loop.
In the story line of "Leap to Infinity", the thinking robot fought against Mandrake, known as the "Dark Watcher", under the ever-setting sun. In the end, both sides were injured and the multiverse was saved from imminent destruction.
None of the three brothers born to Papetua, the mother of the multiverse, was worry-free. The World Forger raised Barbatos, the dragon of the dark multiverse. The Anti-Monitor himself was simply the demon king who destroyed the world. The Monitor turned himself into They became a race, and then created Mandrake, a monster with power close to the six-dimensional god, trying to devour the multiverse, and almost sent the multiverse to death.
But in the end, these crises were eliminated, embedded in the hypertime flow like a solidified concrete road.
After defeating Mandrake, the broken thinking robot carved its own tombstone, and then collapsed and disappeared. He has completed his mission of killing Mandrake and protecting the DC universe——
Until the hyper-time flow was forced to pull out the thinking robot that had completed its mission to save itself.
And what appeared in front of Dr. Manhattan...
It was the thinking robot that had just defeated Mandrake.
This is almost the only powerful combat force currently found in the hyper-time stream that can be close to Dr. Manhattan in strength and will actively protect the safety of the multiverse.
(Note: Baidu Encyclopedia actually said that Thinking Superman killed Mandrake instantly, and then some people used this description to prove that Thinking Superman is stronger than the six-dimensional gods, but this is a fallacy!
In the comics, Mindman and Mandrake are both injured. At most, Mandrake dies suddenly and Mindman is dying. His power is at most close to that of a six-dimensional god, such as the World Forger, or the Anti-Monitor who has not devoured the positive matter universe. )
If this can't stop Dr. Manhattan...
"Mindman, you can't defeat me."
Dr. Manhattan said to Mindman.
"I'm not a Mindman, I'm Mindman. Superman." Mindman said.
"What does this mean?"
Dr. Manhattan looked at the broken Mindman in front of him with pity.
He must come from the point in time to ensure that he defeated the "Dark Monitor" Mandrake.
Because once the Super Time Stream summons the Thinking Man who has not yet defeated Mandrake, no matter what the result of his battle with Dr. Manhattan is, it will definitely affect the history that is solidified on the Super Time Stream like a dry concrete road:
["Dark Watcher" Mandrake is dead]
Once this result is affected, for example, if Thinking Man is slightly injured in the battle with Dr. Manhattan, so he is at a disadvantage in the battle with Mandrake, and ultimately fails to win...
Once this history is changed, "Dark Watcher" Mandrake will be instantly liberated from the Super Time Stream and become a big iron rod pulled out of the solidified road like Parallax Demon Hal.
When the Dark Watcher Mandrake jumps to the present timeline and starts a group of demons, the entire multiverse will be completely destroyed.
In the final analysis--
The Super Time Stream and the entire multiverse can no longer withstand the torment of our ancestors, and all this is thanks to Batman.
So the person who appeared in front of Dr. Manhattan now could only be the Thinking Man who had just carved his tombstone after killing the "Dark Watcher" Mandrake and had not yet completely died.
Dr. Manhattan waved his hand, and in an instant, Thinking Man was reduced to ashes, but then he was reshaped in front of Manhattan again.
Thinking Man swung his fist and hit Dr. Manhattan, and in an instant, the big blue bald head was also destroyed in the endless white light, and then he was reshaped in the same way.
"You can't beat me. If you are still in your prime, you may be able to confront me head-on for a while."
Dr. Manhattan shook his head.
He said: "But now you have been hit by Mandrake and are close to death. Thinking Man, I will call you that for the time being, if you want. I sincerely advise you: get out of the way."
Thinking Man did not do that.
So Dr. Manhattan removed one of his feet, but this time Thinking Man failed to reshape his body.
Dr. Manhattan is much stronger than the now severely injured Mindman
But despite this...
"Don't even think about it." Dr. Manhattan heard Mindman say: "I am Superman, I represent hope, therefore."
Dr. Manhattan felt Mindman rushing up to try to grab him, so he eliminated one of his arms, but Mindman still rushed up.
"As long as you become stronger, I will use more power to overwhelm you."
Dr. Manhattan removed his other leg.
"Don't think about defeating me. I have vowed to protect all living beings no matter how difficult it is."
Dr. Manhattan was about to leave, but Mindman rushed up to hug him.
So Dr. Manhattan was forced to stop.
Mindman once risked everything.
He once risked his life, stepped on the ruins of utopia, and punched and kicked into the wreckage of dreams.
Light beams cut through the rubble of countless galleries and museums, burning unparalleled architecture and art classics.
But all this is meaningless.
Dr. Manhattan stepped over the ashes of Mindman, and no one in the entire multiverse could stop him.
"Nothing more."
Dr. Manhattan broke through space and time, and soon he appeared in the dark multiverse. Not far from him, Chen Tao, who had already partially transformed into a dragon, was quietly floating in the dark multiverse.
He found a beautiful opportunity.
Under normal circumstances, Barbatos was not a decoration. He himself was a backlash upper position. Even if there was an Anti-Monitor to help split, it would be impossible to convert his [Barbatos Dragon] back to the [Dark Multiverse Dragon] status.
But now Parallax Demon Hal and Prime Superboy are making a fuss in his World Crucible, and Barbatos has no time to interfere with Chen Tao's actions regarding the division.
Another important factor is that there is a powerful enough "other half" of the Anti-Monitor to help him bear 3/4 of the remaining Barbatos Dragon, and it happens that Barbatos lacks combat power and needs to recall the Barbatos Dragon to the World Crucible to facilitate his battle with Parallax Demon Hal and Prime Superboy. Under the superposition of multiple factors, Chen Tao can forcibly cut away 1/4 of the status.
Of course, Chen Tao did not have no other gains.
"Mobius? Mobius! Wake up, you are free now."
Chen Tao whispered to his shoulder. After a while, his shoulder stirred like a wax solution. Soon, the face of the mortal Mobius, which had been eroded by the anti-life equation and looked like a dog crawling over after taking a shit, appeared on Chen Tao's shoulder.
"Don't be too quick to thank me. I have something to ask you now. How can I take advantage of the gap where Barbatos has no time to take care of the Dark Multiverse? With the passage to the Light Multiverse behind me, I can build a space in the Dark Multiverse that can Against his future invasion of the castle?"
Chen Tao said: "I feel that I can weave destiny. I can use the power of destiny to prevent Barbatos from dictating my two universes. But I know that I can weave it, but I don't know how to weave it."
Yes, the problem Chen Tao faces now is very simple:
Those who ride on horses can’t use it.
He was like a gorilla who grabbed a handheld switch game console. He knew that this game console could play games, but he didn't know how to play it. He tried forcefully but accidentally licked the cassette and was tortured. Jumping around.
(Note: The cartridge of the Switch game console is coated with super bitter paint to prevent accidental swallowing.)
Before Morbius could say anything, Chen Tao said first: "I need your help. To be reasonable, although you really don't have much power left now, should I remove you from the role of Anti-Monitor?" Rescued from the devil's clutches?"
"Between us..."
"I only need you to answer yes or no now. We must first confirm a basic condition that both of us agree on."
"Okay, yes." Before Morbius could say anything else, Chen Tao forced him to answer this yes-or-no question.
"You owe me a favor, and you must work for me to repay this debt of favor." Chen Tao said.
"Is it possible that you want me to be under your control all the time? Don't even think about it..." Morbius said: "You..."
"Once I retire, you'll be free."
Chen Tao promised at the speed of light: "When I retire, you will return all my favors and you can leave my universe and me at will, and then do whatever you want. Those scenes you have never seen since you were born, never You can do whatever you want. Is that free enough? You know what I want in this life is retirement."
"but……"
"Now is not the time to bargain. There is only a little time left for Barbatos to have no chance to interfere with us. I now need you to help me build a fortress against Barbatos. With the knowledge and memories you inherited from the Anti-Monitor, can you Do it?”
"Yes, but..."
"Very good." Chen Tao said: "Time is running out. Since we cannot bring my dark multiverse to the light world, we need to rely on two universes to build defenses to block Barbatos' interference... …”
He talked about his plans one by one, just as Doctor Manhattan saw the future in which Batman became the gatekeeper of the Dark Multiverse in the closed-loop timeline.
Once Batman becomes the gatekeeper of the Dark Multiverse, the multiverse's space-time loop is closed. The hyperchronic flow can continue to run, but Dr. Manhattan...
Then I just want to have a foot in it.
"This plan is perfect...because we cannot move our dark multiverse into the positive matter universe, nor can we transfer all the life in our universe, so we must build a strong enough one..."
"What if I say yes?"
"Is it possible?" Chen Tao said: "Do you think you are a blue bald man who can transfer all life in the universe? This is a delicate job. The main job of this damn [Dragon of the Dark Multiverse] is To destroy those unqualified dark multiverses, the job content is completely [destruction], and you cannot do such a delicate job at all. I advise you to..."
Then Chen Tao, who was chattering endlessly, paused. He turned his head and saw a blue, hairless light man appearing in front of him.
"I'm Dr. Manhattan."
He heard the big blue bald head introduce himself: "I can transfer all the life in your entire universe, and help you find a universe in the positive matter universe that can accommodate all the creatures in your universe."
"You can retire in that universe forever and enjoy peace and quiet."
"What do you think of this proposal?"
Once Batman gives up being the gatekeeper of the Dark Multiverse. The time loop of the multiverse will begin to collapse. Then...what will happen?
