Chapter 164 The Red Death in Another World(2/2)
Chen Guang had already figured out who this person was...but he frowned in confusion.
"Are you...Bruce? Batman who has gained the power of the Flash?"
Hearing Chen Guang's direct revelation of his identity, the other party didn't show any surprise, although even if he did, it wouldn't be revealed under the full-coverage mask.
After all, if the other person is really someone who has returned from the future to the present, then it is perfectly normal to reveal his identity in one word. The secret can only be hidden from everyone for a while, or it can be hidden from a few people forever, but it is impossible to hide it forever.
Everyone.
The Red Death calmed down. He looked at Chen Guang. From the ferocious red bat mask, the voice of adult Barry Allen, who had met Chen Guang once, came out: "Why, in the future, I will change
Did you name yourself the 'Red Death'?"
Chen Guang confirmed that the other party was the counterpart of Batman from the Minus 52 universe in the DC Comics major event "Metal", from the Dark Multiverse.
The so-called dark multiverse is different from the positive multiverse. If in this world, the moment everyone makes a certain decision, two different parallel universes will split, then the negative universe is everyone's
Every decision splits the universe in the worst possible direction.
The human nature of such a universe is full of despair and darkness. Even pure time and space cannot exist stably for tens of billions of years like the main universe. They are very unstable and may self-destruct at any time.
Generally speaking, such universes will be destroyed by the World Forger's pet dragon Barbatos, and then the energy of these bad universes will be directed back to the World Forge to start a new round of casting.
But from the time Barbatos was born, his only mission was to destroy the dark universe, which made him only see destruction. In the end, he fell into complete madness and even killed his master, the World Forger.
As a result, these unstable dark universes have temporarily survived...
But the strange thing is that logically speaking, these things all happened in the New 52, right?
The New 52 refers to the 52 universes reborn after "Flashpoint".
Could it be that... there was a hint of solemnity in Chen Guang's eyes.
In fact, what I traveled through before was not the formal Flashpoint timeline, but the Flashpoint timeline that was later restarted by Doctor Manhattan?
"Why……"
Chen Guang sighed and shook his head. Time in American comics is so complicated, and trying to figure it out is nonsense. He simply stopped thinking about it for the time being and raised his head to look at Batman, who called himself the 'Red Death'.
Under the amplification of the Negative Speed Force, the magnetic field also reads the opponent's brain waves at an extremely fast speed.
From this, we learned about the sad life of the Red Death that was not told in the comics.
Although the Batman in this world is also Bruce Wayne, in this dark world full of despair and instability, the challenges and pressures he faces are far greater than those of Bruce in any other universe.
In this dark universe numbered minus 52, Bruce is still tirelessly trying to save the city many years after he became Batman.
It's a pity that he rarely sees the bright side of human nature. Sometimes, even if he just saves an innocent boy, the boy will try to falsely accuse Batman of sexual assault to gain attention and benefits for himself.
Such a world full of darkness in everyone's heart almost makes Batman exhausted, but fortunately, he still found some good seeds and trained them into Robin.
Batman was even surprised to find that he actually had a child with Thalia from the League of Assassins, and he named him Damian.
Everything seems to be going well. As long as these family members are still around, Bruce believes in himself. Even if the whole world can't see any light, he is willing to be the only candlelight in the dark night.
Then they all died.
First, the second generation Robin Jason died at the hands of the Joker. Before his death, he suffered inhuman torture and was brutally tortured to death.
Then, when the third generation Robin Tim was rescuing innocent citizens, he was attacked from behind by the citizens, just to use his head in exchange for the bounty of the local gang.
Then, there was the independent Robin Dick, who called himself "Nightwing". When he led his son Damian out for actual combat training, he was maliciously pushed down by the violent Damian, and his head was hit on a stone and he died.
Just as he was shocked and saddened by the news... Damian was also killed by Bane while returning to the League of Assassins out of guilt.
Batman was almost driven crazy by the countless bad news. He drove the corpses of his four children to the League of Assassins, only to be told that Reshaugu had gone completely crazy because he had used the Lazarus Fountain for too long.
The other party not only killed Damian's mother Thalia, but also destroyed the entire Assassin's League headquarters, and finally triggered the Assassin's League's self-destruction mechanism, sleeping forever in the ruins together with his beloved spring.
Everything seems irreversible.
The lost Batman returned to Gotham like a zombie, only to discover that... Bane had learned his true identity from Damian's body, and during the time he left Gotham, Alfred
De was also brutally murdered by a swarm of criminals who broke into Wayne Manor...
When Batman pushed open the door of Wayne Manor and saw Alfred with his internal organs bleeding all over the floor, he confirmed that the string in his mind had been completely broken.
As if he was going crazy, he used the most violent means to kill every criminal who broke into Wayne Manor.
Especially Bane and the Joker. Amid the Joker's wild laughter and Bane's roar, he smashed the Joker's head with a crowbar, broke Bane's limbs, and finally strangled him to death.
In the rafters.
But the blood on his hands only made him more painful and regretful.
Why... why didn't you do this earlier?
If I had killed all these bastards, how could my family die because of them?
So Batman thought of a person...a person who might be able to save it all.
Barry Allen, the Flash who is so fast that he can travel through time.
Batman sneaked into Central City, first stole Barry's cosmic treadmill, modified its engine into his Batmobile, and then killed Captain Cold, the leader of the rogue gang, and took away his ability to freeze all molecules in an instant.
, a freezing gun capable of producing absolute zero.
Then... he relied on Barry's trust in him to sneak attack the opponent, capture the Flash, and finally tie him to the Batmobile whose engine is the cosmic treadmill.
He wants to obtain the Speed Force, he wants to modify everything in the world, stop any crime in the world, eliminate every disgusting criminal, and save everyone in the world!
Yes, my previous vision was too small, why should I stick to Gotham? My real mission is to save the world!
With this crazy idea and an incomparable desire for the Speed Force, he took Barry Allen into the Speed Force at the highest speed that the cosmic treadmill could reach!
However, the Speed Force is mysterious, unknown, changeable, and difficult to fathom.
It doesn't give Barry's Speed Force to Bruce... but directly merges the two into one!
The soul of Batman controls the body of The Flash.
At this point, the Red Death was born.
The moment Batman became the Red Death, he activated the Speed Force and traveled to every corner of the world.
Anyone who was committing a crime, or was trying to commit a crime, without trial or warning, the Red Death wrenched their neck.
He patrols the world endlessly, and if there is any sign of crime, he will be killed on the spot in the next moment.
It seems very beautiful, the Red Death successfully created a world without crime.
Although this is a negative universe where people's hearts are dark, there are still innocent people... so it did become a paradise on earth for a while.
But the Red Death was not satisfied...
Not only does he want to save the world, he also wants to save his family.
So he began to abuse the Speed Force endlessly, going back in time to save Alfred, save Damian, save Dick, save Tim, save Thalia...
It's a pity that those who play with time will be played by time. Barry Allen's soul has been warning the Red Death in his mind, but the Red Death has consistently ignored it.
Therefore, every time after traveling through time, the Red Death found angrily that although the people he wanted to save survived, it caused greater damage and more casualties.
Even if you don't care about those innocent people, there will be situations where you save the second person, but the first person you saved dies again.
He is like a blender with infinite power, destroying the time stability of the entire world. There are rifts in time and space around the world. Countless speed forces condense into red bats. Anyone who touches them will be destroyed.
All time was lost in an instant and turned into a pile of withered bones.
The world is about to be destroyed, and it is the work of the Red Death himself.
While he was wandering around Gotham in confusion and pain, he suddenly noticed a strange fluctuation of the Speed Force.
Only then did he arrive in front of Chen Guang.
After Chen Guang understood this, he shook his head at the Red Death and said, "Sorry, I come from a parallel universe, not the future of this world."
The Red Death was stunned for a moment, and then to Chen Guang's surprise, not only did the other party not feel disappointed or angry, but he fell into ecstasy that could be seen with the naked eye.
His whole body trembled with excitement, and the speed force in his body flashed wantonly. He couldn't help but said loudly: "Yes! Yes! There are parallel worlds! There are parallel worlds! I will definitely be able to find a perfect world where everyone exists.
!”
As he said that, the Red Death Demon looked at Chen Guang, his red eyes flashing with a captivating light, and said with a commanding tone: "Now, give me your technology of traveling through parallel universes immediately, otherwise..."
"die!"
Chen Guang raised his eyebrows and put his foot on the Red Death's knee. There was a click. The thick armor had no effect. His legs were bent, even exposing the bone spurs on his thighs.
"Ahhhhh!!!"
The Red Death let out a horrifying scream. Chen Guang grabbed his visor and forced him in front of him. He smiled and said, "I didn't hear you clearly just now. Could you please say it again?"
Chapter completed!
