Chapter 757 When someone tries to control me, kill me (Thank you so much, Alliance Leader, 5000 words today)
Chen Tao was dreaming.
People like him don't dream often, but dreams often foreshadow certain aspects of the future.
In that dream, he returned to the eve of the Earth 15 crisis.
He witnessed the destruction of the planet.
The world collapsed, and everything was as fragile as a fortress built of sand.
He struggled and thrashed about desperately, finding himself unable to escape the eye of the storm's vortex, while in the far distance, flames and lightning were brewing in the clouds, flickering uncertainly.
Then Chen Tao turned his head.
He suddenly felt a lightness in his body.
He saw a bizarre, giant Buzz Lightyear toy—yes, it was like an enlarged version of the character from Toy Story.
It was really strong. It grabbed him by the back of the neck, like lifting a cat, and tried to pull him out of the center of the whirlpool. But no matter how hard it tried, it was no use. Soon, the Buzz Lightyear toy not only failed to save Chen Tao from the whirlpool, but also got itself trapped in it.
Chen Tao didn't know what to say, but then he felt the toy suddenly grab his neck, making him stick out his tongue and flailing his arms and legs.
What a mess this is!
Chen Tao realized he was dreaming. He wanted to wake up.
But then he turned his head and saw the first Lantern... He jumped into the whirlpool from the dry shore.
Chen Tao noticed that the first Lantern Knight in his dream was somewhat different from the Lantern Knight he had witnessed in reality.
He looked very... old?
He had some grayish-white stubble on his chin, which clashed with his translucent skin, which was also wrinkled. Even the emotional spectrum energy emanating from his seven-colored meridians was not so dazzling, as if he had entered old age.
But something's not right, Chen Tao thought, confused. Although theoretically, the lifespan of the first Lantern Knight isn't infinite, how could he have gotten this old?
How many long years would it take for Lantern Man to turn into such an old thing?
In short, Chen Tao, the giant Buzz Lightyear toy, and Genie Evangelion all slowly sank into the huge vortex of this dream.
Chen Tao felt suffocated.
He felt himself waking up...
wrong?
Chen Tao discovered that the vortex had suddenly disappeared, and he saw a hunched old man.
Chen Tao didn't see his face clearly, but this old man didn't resemble anyone he knew.
It wasn't anyone he knew either.
But he felt a strange sense of familiarity with this person...
"alright."
Then Chen Tao heard his voice.
The giant Buzz Lightyear toy and the first Genie figure were held in this person's hands. He rubbed them together vigorously like clay, and then they fused together like putty, like two lumps of kneaded iron.
(Note: "mud iron" refers to epoxy resin hardener.)
Chen Tao, watching from the side, had a question mark floating above his head.
Then he heard the other person's voice.
"Okay, don't worry. Batman has arranged everything for you, but remember..."
The old man turned around, his face a blur.
Chen Tao saw him spread his tattered, aged wings, casting a huge shadow, and then the voice exploded in his ears like a resounding bell:
Never compromise!!!
hum!
hum!
hum!
boom!
Chen Tao suddenly sat up in bed, panting heavily.
What a jumbled dream! It makes no sense. His thoughts were so muddled. Chen Tao rubbed his temples.
He subconsciously thought of pouring himself a glass of water, and then remembered that he was no longer an ordinary person.
So he waved his hand, and the water bottle flew up out of thin air, pouring him a glass of water.
Alright alright.
As soon as Chen Tao sat up in bed, his mind started racing again.
Let's clarify one point first: Chen Tao's meeting with Heroes in the darkness of decay...
At first, Chen Tao didn't realize it, but after thinking about it carefully for a while, he began to understand the significance of Hero Day being designed by himself.
He wanted to participate in Chen Tao's plan. He inexplicably appeared downstream of the super-time flow and possessed the memories of everything that had happened in the super-time flow recently.
He has clear goals and plans, and he has a fairly complete grasp of the current intelligence, at least to the point that Chen Tao doesn't need to explain it to him. All of this is simply because he wants to do something good!
Chen Tao knew this sounded a bit absurd, but...
In terms of motivation, "doing good" seems to be the reason for most superheroes' actions.
Doomsday can explain its motivations.
He also claimed that because Earth-15 mistakenly appeared on the current timeline, he was infused with memories of new history by the hyper-time stream, so he could explain his intelligence.
Chen Tao got out of bed and went downstairs, where he saw that Alfred had prepared dinner for almost 30 people.
Do five-dimensional beings need to eat? Do the dragons of Barbatos need to eat?
It's not necessary, but it's also necessary.
Chen Tao devoured all the food in a flash.
Then both he and Alfred knew what Chen Tao was going to do next.
"I have to...I have to go upstream in time travel to verify Hero Day's identity."
Chen Tao said, "Although Heroes Day has erased itself after the Gogol War, Heroes Day and Doomsday ultimately share the same body."
Before the Gogol War, I could leave some marks on Doomsday… If, downstream in the super-time flow, the Hero Day we see before us is truly the same person as the Hero Day upstream in the super-time flow, then as history is rewritten from upstream to downstream, these marks should be reflected on him.”
In truth, Alfred couldn't understand what his little Bruce was saying; he had been out of the Batman world for far too long.
He was too old, and the war his little Bruce faced was too far removed from him.
But old Alfred listened very attentively.
"You'll definitely win," he said. "Also, I've prepared breakfast for you; you can eat it on the way."
Chen Tao accepted it.
He flew out of Wayne Manor, but he still knew perfectly well that old Alfred was still secretly watching him from behind the window.
So he flew as slowly as possible, until he was sure that his figure had completely disappeared behind the clouds, before opening the portal in front of him.
The upstream of the super-time stream.
This was during the period of the major event known as "The Death of Superman".
but.
There is no Superman.
The theft of Superman caused the concept of Superman to disappear from the DC multiverse, which is why this is a major event that shakes the very nature of the universe.
Although the Time Stream can maintain its stability by extending credit, and "Superman will always come back in the future, so history doesn't have to change," the history upstream is still collapsing completely.
Chen Tao attempts to appear in the history of Superman's death, only to discover that there is no Superman and that this history is gradually collapsing.
He couldn't enter the history after "Superman's debut," but could only enter the history before Superman's debut, when the Justice League was ravaged by Doomsday.
With a loud bang, Chen Tao turned his head and saw that Hal, the Green Lantern of this era, had been planted on the ground headfirst by Doomsday like a radish. Even the protective shield formed by the Green Lantern's energy had been deformed by the monstrous force. Then Doomsday pinned the unfortunate Green Lantern to the ground, straddled him, and vigorously pounded his back.
Great, now that the Justice League has been defeated, Superman should appear according to normal history, but he's not here, so this part of history is stuck, in a Schrödinger-like state.
Chen Tao's vision blurred, and he found himself transported back to the point in time when the Justice League had just begun its battle with Doomsday.
Schrödinger's Superman—Chen Tao knew he couldn't enter that period of history, because before entering, the time-traveling technique allowed him to deceive himself by saying, "Superman is still here!" But if he were to enter...
Chen Tao knew that it was pointless to repair this part of history. He believed that once he brought the concept of Superman back from downstream, this part of history would be restored on its own.
Well, Chen Tao also needs to be careful with Doomsday in the main universe timeline. It's best to resolve things quietly. Just as Chen Tao was about to make a move and leave a mark on Doomsday with magic, he suddenly discovered that Doomsday had exploded and disappeared for a second.
The next second, with a bang, Doomsday, who had just disappeared, reappeared in the same spot, dressed in a wedding gown.
Chen Tao: ? ? ?
With a bang, Doomsday shook again, and the wedding dress fell off him.
Then Chen Tao stared blankly as Doomsday, who had just been focused on the Justice League, turned his head and stared straight at him.
Oh no, damn it, my ambush plan is ruined!
Doomsday excitedly lifted up her wedding dress and yelled at Chen Tao, like a newlywed wife who had discovered her husband's infidelity.
A murderous intent flashed in his chaotic eyes as he lunged at Chen Tao.
Chen Tao realized what was going on. The first time he met the bat mite, it had dragged Doomsday from the time of Superman's death and dressed him in a wedding dress. But when it sent Doomsday back, it forgot to remove the wedding dress at first.
Chen Tao reminded him, so the bat mite took off the wedding dress, but at that moment they both forgot that they needed to erase the memory of Doomsday!
(Note: Chapter 619)
Grass.
Chen Tao could only hug Doomsday tightly. The power of the fifth dimension forced its way in, leaving a magical mark on him. Chen Tao had originally intended to erase this absurd memory of wearing a wedding dress, but just as he was about to act…
He suddenly stopped what he was doing.
He suddenly realized that when he read the Hero's Diary, he did not access the memories of the wedding dress.
That proves one thing.
If Hero's Day is the day of destruction of the main universe, but he has no memory of the wedding dress, then it means that Chen Tao should have cleaned up the mess for the bat mite and himself for some reason, erasing the absurd memory of wearing a wedding dress.
But what would happen if he changed his actions now and didn't erase it?
It's very simple. Changes upstream in the hypertime stream will affect downstream. If Chen Tao decides not to erase the "wedding dress memory" at this time, the "wedding dress memory" that was not erased should be generated in the mind of Hero Day downstream in the hypertime stream, even if he did not have these memories before.
Yes, changes upstream in the timeline will be promptly overwritten downstream, ranging from adding memories to altering reality.
This is why, during the Death Metal era, the first thing the Mother of the Multiverse, Papetua, did when she jumped off the Origin Wall was to directly destroy the Hypertime Stream to prevent anyone from stopping her by modifying the history upstream of the Hypertime Stream.
Chen Tao finished marking his position, and there were two marks in total.
One is a magical mark on the body, the other is a wedding dress memory in the mind.
Next, he only needs to travel downstream in time to the current timeline to verify the authenticity of Hero's Day!
He must have both the magical mark and the memory of the wedding dress, otherwise...
Chen Tao took a deep breath.
……
……
……
The World Forger has left the First Lantern.
He knew that the Lantern Knight must still have doubts in his heart.
But it didn't matter; he knew the Lantern would take the bait because he had shown the Lantern an image of his mother...
It's not just a simple image, but proof that the World Maker has the ability to take his mother and everyone from his hometown away from Earth's 15-timeline.
The World Founder lied to the First Lantern, saying he could take everyone from his home planet before Earth-15 was completely destroyed and then quietly settle them there, thus protecting the First Lantern's family and friends without affecting the timeline of history.
That doesn't sound logically wrong, right?
But here's the problem: you have two magnets, but you can't tie one to the front of the car and suspend the other in the air with a bamboo pole to create a perpetual motion machine.
The world's foundry made a promise that it cannot keep, but it is not entirely unfulfillable.
Anyway, when the time comes, the World Founder will just throw the fake mother he just made to Lamp One, and he won't be able to tell whether it's real or fake. Does it matter?
The World Founders also took the time to observe Batman Dragon.
Batman: Dragon is much smarter than the original Lantern.
He went back upstream in the hyperchronic flow and made a mark on Doomsday.
Some kind of magical mark...
The World Foundry took a quick look at what he had done.
Wow, that's really clever.
The world's builders almost applauded Batman Dragon.
But so what?
After studying the Superman from the main universe, the dummy he created is perfect.
The World Founders immediately created a similar mark for Heroes' Day, merely a mark created by the power of a fifth-dimensional deity.
When Batman Dragon from the main universe returns to his timeline, he will only find that the magical mark he made also appears on Hero Day.
The World Forger had planned everything perfectly; now, no matter how suspicious Batman Dragon might be...
He probably wouldn't be able to refuse the bait he himself had laid out for him.
That's what the world's builders think.
He had complete confidence in his creation, and no matter how careful Batman Dragon was, he couldn't find the flaw he wanted in something that was flawless.
……
……
……
"Batman, I've completed the initial fusion of Metal Spirit and Decaying Black. Look at this."
Hero Day told Chen Tao:
"Essentially, the black of decay represents death, but the mechanical body of the Metal Spirit is not a silicon-based life form; in a sense, it can also be seen as possessing a power with death-like properties. Bane and I..."
After talking about Hero's Day for a while, he only saw Chen Tao staring straight at him.
"What's wrong with you?"
Ask the question on Hero's Day.
Chen Tao turned his face away.
"It's nothing."
Then he said seriously, "I need to check your memory again."
"Now? Right now?"
"Yes."
"Okay, although I don't quite understand."
Chen Tao read through the memories of Hero's Day.
Then he looked at the other person and told Heroes Day everything about how he had traveled through the timeline to Doomsday and added the mark to him.
"Wow, so I have that magical mark on me?"
"Yes," Chen Tao said.
Then his voice lowered slightly.
Chen Tao was ready for battle, having read his opponent's memories, but...
Downstream through time, on the current timeline, at this very moment, Hero's Day appears before Chen Tao, within his memories...
There was no noisy wedding dress farce.
therefore……
Reveal yourself, monster.
Chen Tao looked at the other person's honest smiling face, waiting, waiting for that smile to turn into endless killing intent after he exposed everything.
He spoke.
He shared his memories of his wedding dress.
Chen Tao should have kept this a secret. He already knew that there was something wrong with the hero in front of him, and he had obtained conclusive evidence.
He could have turned the tables on the enemy without making a sound.
But inexplicably, Chen Tao did not choose to do that.
He chose to confront Heroes' Day directly, perhaps because deep down, Chen Tao longed for Heroes' Day to be explained in some way, a plausible explanation.
He longed for Heroes' Day to tell him that he had made a mistake.
Chen Tao desperately wanted Heroes' Day to be without problems, even more so than he himself. He hoped Heroes' Day could explain why the history upstream was altered but the memories didn't translate into his own downstream experience.
This is a weakness of human nature, a weakness that led Chen Tao to act in a way that was not entirely rational.
Chen Tao directly addressed Hero's Day, revealing to him that he had no memory of wedding dresses.
"I...I can't explain..."
Heroes frowned on the day.
Chen Tao sighed inwardly.
He was ready to take action.
But the next moment, he heard the voice of Heroes' Day.
"I see."
"What?"
"Someone may have tampered with my body. My resurrection was unexpected, and I don't even understand how I was resurrected."
Hero Day said, "But at least... but at least I still have a way to continue being a hero."
He reached out his hand to Chen Tao: "You must have some way to control me. You must have some means of controlling me that makes you feel at ease, and that allows you to control my life and death at any time."
He said to Chen Tao, "Use it. Use it on me. Use it on me while my willpower can still control my body."
He said, "When someone tries to control my body to do things that are not heroic..."
"Kill me."
He said.
Chen Tao remained silent for a while.
"it is good."
He made a dull sound:
"Welcome to my team, Hero's Day, welcome to the team..."
"Dark Multiverse Resistance Army"
