No one expected that Superman would kill a former friend while shedding tears when faced with one who questioned him.
"You died for a new world, my friend!"
This is what Superman said when he killed Green Arrow.
Batman is currently preoccupied with the idea of "another world" mentioned in the audio. Is it information from another world?
Otherwise, how could Cisco and Cyborg, two people who are irreconcilable, end up together?
Moreover, Shockwave is still alive, and Cyborg is completely different from the Cyborg on Superman's side.
After careful consideration, Batman took a lightning bolt-shaped button out of his pocket and pressed it.
Three minutes later, a bolt of lightning appeared in the center of the bat cave.
Chapter 290 The Empty Train
"Bruce, I know what you're going to tell me. In fact, I've traveled through time and space many times!"
Lightning transformed into human form, and Barry Allen removed the hood of his combat suit. He didn't look old, but his face was very weathered.
"Time and space travel?"
Batman was puzzled, though he had an idea, wait...
Does Barry mean that he traveled through time to try and change the world, but still failed?
Seeing the surprised look on Batman's face, Barry explained.
“Bruce, every now and then you tell me that Lois Lane is the key, and you send me through time to save her. But... I fail, I've tried so many times! It's all in vain!”
"No matter how many times I save Lois Lane, the Joker always finds a way to get Superman to kill her and her child, and each time he changes more and more..."
"At first, Superman just threw the entire Atlantis into the desert. The first time I traveled through time, he killed Aquaman. The second time, Green Arrow and Martian Manhunter died. Maybe next time it will be you, Bruce!"
"I think if you don't let me go back to the beginning, and instead let me kill Joker 11,..."
As Barry Allen, the Flash, spoke meaningfully to himself, Batman stood up and put his hand on the Flash's shoulder.
“Barry, calm down, you don’t need to kill anyone.”
Barry shook his head, his face contorted in pain. "You don't understand. These days, the timeline has become a complete mess, and it's getting worse and worse. I can't travel back in time!"
"I'm not asking you to travel back in time, Barry, listen to this..."
Batman didn't say anything more, but simply clicked on the audio file that had suddenly appeared in his brother's eyes.
The player played Cisco and Stilwell's voices again, and despite the interference, Barry could hear them clearly.
He wiped his face with trembling hands, took a deep breath, and his eyes welled up with tears. "Cisco! Cisco is still alive? How is that possible? I clearly saw him die during that recording?"
“Barry, this isn’t a recording. I think it’s a message from another world,” Batman explained.
“But… how is this possible?” Barry’s eyes widened in disbelief.
Batman explained blankly, "This supercomputer was built using some Kryptonian technology. My mind is synchronized with the Brother Eye, which helps me control the supercomputer better, but I often hear other voices. At first, I thought it was a hallucination..."
"So this is a message from another world?" Barry asked.
Batman nodded and said, "Yes, unlike Earth-2 and Earth-3 (which have different designations than their own universes), this world also has the Justice League and... Superman."
In this universe, the Flash accidentally opened a wormhole in spacetime while fighting the Inverse Flash.
They connected a neighboring universe with a neighboring universe.
Both universes have seen superhumans and speedsters, but no superhumans.
The Flash did consider seeking help from other universes, but the multiverse is simply too vast, and most universes are relatively quiet.
In other words, in the universe as he knew it, there were no allies powerful enough.
Seeing that the Flash had been in a daze for a long time, Batman spoke up: "Barry, Superman has gone mad. There's nothing we can do to stop him. It's up to you to find other allies in other universes. If possible, bring me a ton of Kryptonite!"
"Travel to other universes?!"
Barry's hands clenched nervously as he recalled his experience of breaking through the spacetime barrier. "Bruce, as you know, there are many parallel universes, and I have a hard time determining which universe this message came from!"
"That's good. Brother's Eye is analyzing the source of the audio information. Now we know it comes from another world. All we need to do is record the time ripple signal and transmit it to your suit via the transmitter. The rest is just a matter of you running."
After careful consideration of Batman's suggestion, Barry said, "If traveling in a parallel universe, Overwatch could potentially detect anomalous spatial data."
Like many others in the universe, the Justice League also has a spaceship called "Watchtower".
To monitor the Earth 24 hours a day.
The Flash's transition to another universe at this time might attract the attention of the Watchtowers.
It's important to know that The Flash, Barry, is nominally a member of Superman's own camp. How he escaped to another universe, whether for Kryptonite, for other assistance, or something else, is unclear.
Most likely, his fate will be the same as that of Aquaman, Green Arrow, and Martian Manhunter, who have already died.
Seeing Barry's hesitation, Batman put his hand on Barry's shoulder and said in a deep voice, "Barry, this is the last way out. Superman has changed. Maybe it really is as you say, the next one to die... might be me."
"Bruce..."
Barry looked at Batman, feeling a strange sadness in his heart.
Can you really calmly watch one friend after another die?
Green Arrow, Aquaman, Martian Manhunter... Shockwave, Cisco Ramon.
Barry sighed heavily. "Okay, I'll do it your way. How long will it take you to record the time ripple signal?"
"About a day or two, not too long," Batman replied.
“Alright, then I’ll head back to Central City and go to Iris’s place… 930, hehe…” Barry sighed heavily, then vanished into the Batcave like lightning.
......
Earth 95.
Metropolitan, Leo Street subway station.
The crowd came down the steps and walked into the subway station. A young man named Billy Butson stood alone at the entrance of the subway station, looking at the coins in his hand.
“That coin, isn’t it the one you use to ride the subway?” Billy Butson muttered to himself, frowning.
This coin is gold in color and quite heavy. The obverse features the portrait of an old man, while the reverse has the capital letter "S".
It's more accurate to call this an amusement park toy than a subway station coin.
Was that old black man lying to me?
Billy Butson scratched his head, but then realized the other person didn't seem to want to lie to him, so he rallied and headed towards the subway station.
Billy put the silver coin in his hand into the coin slot to collect the money and entered the empty underground hall.
He suddenly realized that he was all alone in the entire underground hall, and everything around him was eerily quiet. If the lights hadn't been on, Billy would have turned and run away.
After passing through the platform, the train roared into the station ahead.
Billy's youngest son looked up, his heart pounding! He realized that all the train carriages inside were waving at him.
He discovered that all the train carriages inside were empty!
Chapter 291 The Archway?
How could the subway train be empty at this time?
The young man named Billy Butson thought it was a bit ridiculous, but the thought of going to the welfare center to collect his monthly allowance left him with no choice but to get on the train.
"This is Metropolis, there shouldn't be any problems here... Hey, even if something does happen, Superman, the Avengers, Wonder Woman, Cyborg... they'll definitely come to my rescue!"
Billy looked around and sat in the seat closest to the door. The train doors closed, and the train slowly accelerated.
"If something goes wrong and Superman comes to my rescue, can I ask him for his autograph? I'm a huge fan of the Justice League, they'll definitely give me their autographs!"
Thinking of this, Billy, imitating the bear's ruthlessness, leisurely leaned against the window and looked inside.
As the train begins to move, the advertising screens on the subway track walls rapidly reverse.
One second Billy was watching with great interest, the next second the scene changed abruptly, and the train seemed to have entered a cave full of stalactites.
"My God, the train is coming out of the tunnel?"
Even though Billy was a carefree, unruly kid, he noticed something was wrong.
The Metropolitan Subway only operates within the city, so why does it suddenly appear in a cave?
The train was still rumbling as Billy jumped up from his seat and punched the door in an attempt to open it.
But it was all in vain.
About half an hour later, the train slowed down and came to a stop, and then with a "whoosh," the doors opened.
"Is that...are we there?"
The little boy, Billy, leaned out of the car and looked out.
The surrounding area still resembles a cave, except for an earthen platform next to the train that looks like a station here.
Billy jumped off the train and boldly walked along the platform.
After a while, he saw seven ferocious stone statues on the right wall, with their names written below each statue.
