Chapter 401 Feasibility of Traveling Through Time and Space

In Wayne Manor, Ke Wen sat in the hall, watched the other three little guys play, and couldn't help sighing.It is better for a child to be carefree, unlike him, who has to think about the next thing.The secret talks between Superman and Batman have clearly stated that within a month, Batman will take the information he has obtained to the Hall of Justice to meet Superman.

But he understands that the so-called meeting is a decisive battle. The fully prepared Batman and the irreversible Superman will put an end to the five-year entanglement.Just like now, he is the only one left in the entire Wayne Manor, Damian, these little guys and Alfred, Batman, Batgirl, and Batwoman are no longer in Wayne Manor and Batcave, Maybe they are all preparing for this last month.

As for Ke Wen himself, after getting rid of Damian, he didn't care whether his mentality would be rebuilt, and everything was done. If he still insists on going his own way, what can he do? What should he do then? Just do what you want.He still has one important thing to solve now, how to deal with the superheroes other than Superman. At this time, Ke Wen stood in front of a writing board with the Flash attached to it with a magnet, and the yellow light There are pictures of Hal, Sinestro, Hawkgirl, Shazam, Cyborg, and Wonder Woman, and Superman is stuck in the middle of these pictures.

The whole Injustice was built around Superman, and now that Superman is handed over to Batman, then these superheroes need to be dealt with.In the original book, Batman from the Injustice universe also blossomed directly in the center of Superman, summoning another Superman from a parallel universe, Batman, and caught the Injustice Superman by surprise.And other superheroes also have special parallel universe superheroes to deal with in the past. Although looking at the current situation, Ke Wen doesn't know if Batman in the Injustice Universe has other plans to deal with Superman. The superheroes must be dealt with, otherwise, these superheroes who started killing don't mind having more lives called Batman in their hands.

And he, now has to add a few more cards to his side, lest Batman knock down the unjust Superman when the time comes, but be overturned by these bastard superheroes. "It's a headache," Ke Wen said with his chin in his hands. Thanks to the fact that it is the fifth year of the Injustice Universe, some of the illegal combat forces belonging to this universe have already been eliminated. Ke Wen doesn't have to worry about these guys making trouble. , It's just these superheroes who have a headache.

Carefully searching the memories in his mind, he was thinking about what combat power could be drawn to his side at this point in time, until the image of a big, stupid man appeared in his mind.

"Yes, this guy is the only one in this period of time. If Batman is determined to solve Superman once, this guy may be able to become the new Superman. After all, this guy has matured." Ke Wen confirmed After receiving the information, he was ready to get up and leave.

"Are you going on a long trip? Master Ke Wen." The old butler Alfred saw Ke Wen who was sitting there meditating and suddenly stood up, and asked very caringly.

"Yes, please take care of these little guys when I'm not at home."

"How many people do I need to prepare for dinner?"

"Let's add an extra serving, it's better to have more meat, that big fool will eat a lot."

"Okay, Master Ke Wen."

After ordering Alfred, Ke Wen directly opened the portal and left Wayne Manor. Since he couldn't confirm whether the outside was being monitored by the Superman regime, Ke Wen still used magic more realistically. After all, this thing It's all versatile in any world ability system, but it's okay to use.

On the other side, in the Hall of Justice, the unjust Damian, who was beaten up by Damian yesterday, opened his eyes on the hospital bed, looked at the light shining in his eyes, and was performing a test on the instrument at the side. The data-adjusted steel frame was full of doubts.

"I'm glad you're awake. Next time if you're going to fight crime, you can give us a notice first. We won't disturb your fun of fighting crime alone, but you won't be ashamed of being beaten too badly." Forgot to call for help." Sensing Damian waking up behind him, Steel Head said without returning.

"You said my body was injured by those guys?" Lying on the hospital bed, Damian asked in surprise looking at his gauze-bound hands and one foot in a plaster cast.

"Otherwise? Dozens of dozen, you're already fine with this little injury, just lie down and don't move, I'll adjust the dose and inject it, and you'll be able to recover in a day. Also, someone should do it for you When we arrived, there was a box next to you, although I don’t know who sent it, but it should be a gift for you.” Turning around, Steel Bone pointed to the box on the right side of Damian Said.

"Really? Thank you." Seeing the familiar handwriting on the box, Damian thanked Cyborg with tears in his eyes.

"It's nothing, you can rest, I will continue to monitor the world's reactionary speech." After waving his hand, Cyborg was about to leave.At this moment, Damian also suddenly stopped him.

"Victor, can I ask you something?"

"Huh? Let's talk."

"What we did was right or wrong."

"Why do you ask that, Damian, we have established peace."

"Yes, but we sacrificed freedom, human freedom."

"It's relative freedom, Damian. We were never dictators. We just stipulated some things that they shouldn't touch, and these things are often the most likely cause of war. We gave them freedom of speech." rights, but we will not give them the freedom to instigate crimes and sow dissension. A true utopia can be created."

Turning around, he responded to Damian's question with some emotion in his words. Then Cyborg turned around and left the medical room, leaving Damian alone to look at the box and open it. The blue trench coat The clothes just lay there, but it made Damian struggle in his heart.Caressing the pattern on the battle uniform, thinking about every word that the former self said to him last night, thinking about the little things between himself, Batman and Dick, he has already made a decision in his heart.

Metropolitan area, Lex Enterprise, as the official resource supporter behind the Superman regime, Lex relied on his own clever mind and the Kryptonian technology provided by Superman to make the Superman regime's rule on the earth increasingly stable.At this time, he is still carrying out the task entrusted to him by Superman, redesigning and building a prison for super criminals, so that there will no longer be so-called prison breaks or prison robberies, and at the same time, those super criminals can serve their sentences with peace of mind. .

Lex, who was concentrating on the design and construction, also felt a breeze coming from behind his head, and asked without looking back: "You seem to have talked to him, how is it?"

"One month later, he will give me an answer, how is the construction of the new prison going?" Superman stood behind Lex and asked dully.

"It will take another month to complete the project. It could have been faster, but Barry is injured, so I can only come here by myself."

"What happened to our superhuman drug?"

When Superman asked about the most advantageous weapon used by their superman regime to control the world, Lex couldn't help but pause when he was typing on the keyboard, and sighed, "You still noticed it after all."

"Yes, our production of superhuman drugs seems to have been halved."

"It's not halved, but the production is suspended. One of the main ingredients of the superhuman drug is contaminated. We can no longer produce the superhuman drug until we find a new ingredient to replace it. I can only halve the original stock and distribute it. , to avoid letting people know this fact.”

"Is that so? Lex, can I ask you a question?" After a long silence, Superman walked to the window and asked suddenly while looking at the scenery outside the window.

"Of course, you say."

"If I let Barry travel back to five years ago and stop me who was going to kill the clown, do you think the world will still be so peaceful now?"

"I only know one consequence, you will only destroy our world." Lex said in shock when he heard Superman calmly raise this question.

"why?"

"You have a brain with advanced intelligence, but haven't you seriously thought about this problem, Clark~"

Looking at the puzzled expression that Superman turned his head to show, Lex couldn't help but feel a little helpless. Just now, he really thought that Superman really planned to let Barry, that is, the Flash, plan to travel through time and space, so he came here to confirm the consequences of traveling through time and space. , now it seems, is more like curiosity.Thinking of this, Lex closed the blueprint for the construction of the new prison, reopened the three-dimensional holographic projection, drew a line on it, and drew a bifurcation point at the other end of the line, and then extended two lines.

"Suppose, the front of this gap is everything we have experienced in the past, and this gap is the moment when you choose whether to kill the clown. At that time, if you choose to let the clown get the punishment it deserves, then there may be That dreamed future you once told me about."

"Damn the clown!"

"Okay, he's damned, he's damned." Comforting Superman's emotions, he touched his bright bald head, and continued: "You chose to make the clown pay for his crimes, and he paid, so from you From the moment you kill the clown, the so-called future in the dream disappears, and what is presented is our present future, and if you let Barry go back to the past and stop the time when you killed the clown, it is even guaranteed Louise and the continuation of her life with the baby in her womb, so that you don't have the rage to continue killing the clown, so what happens?"

"This timeline we're in will be erased, because it doesn't exist, and all these achievements that we've been fighting for for five years will be wiped out."

"It's absolutely correct. Time is continuous. Each time point is connected into a line, and it also diverges into several lines. Barry's speed force travel does not go to a parallel universe, but directly returns to our past. He is in Any changes made at those critical points in the past would destroy everything we have now."

"And what if I just ask him to bring back the old Louise?"

"Let's face it, Clark." Lex shook his head, holding Superman's shoulders and said, "Louise is gone, even if Barry brings back the past Louise, it's just a remnant of time. In our line, Without the space for her to live, she will be forcibly erased by time and space, because she belongs to the past, and she is not a speedster, unless..."

"Unless what?" Seeing Lex hesitated to speak, Superman asked hastily as if grasping a glimmer of hope.

Looking up at Superman, Lex felt that there was something wrong with Superman today, but since Superman asked at this time, he had no reason not to answer, and returned to his desk. In the [-]D hologram projected on the desk, there were two points: The crossed timelines extend forward until they rejoin at a new point later, merging into one line.

"As you can see, I assume that our timeline was born because you chose to make the clown pay for your crimes, that is, our timeline was born when the metropolis was destroyed by the clown, and your wife The death of my son is the beginning of the event, so if there is an equivalent major event to replace the original event, will there be a merger of timelines, that is, on the basis of retaining our era, let that be erased? Another future of ours, merged with our present, of course, this is a hypothesis, because I have not had a successful experiment, even with Barry, the speedster, so, Clark, look at the present and protect the present, it is enough .”

One possibility after another was simulated on Lex's [-]D holographic projection, but none of them succeeded. Superman's hopeful eyes slowly extinguished. He turned around and looked out the window at the former metropolis, which was destroyed by the clown's nuclear bomb. In no man's land, he murmured: "Have you ever succeeded? Maybe you didn't think of what kind of big event should be to replace the original one."

As he said that, Superman also had a decision in his heart. For an equivalently big event, if Lex couldn't do it, it didn't mean he couldn't do it.
