Chapter 623 The Constantly Refreshing Timeline
While the Bat of Laughter and Chen Tao were scheming against each other and exchanging blows, locked in a fierce battle even though they hadn't met yet, there was another group of people who weren't directly involved in the situation who were also very busy.
No, it's not Parallax Morhal, he's a player who's already joined the game. We're talking about a group of people who never actually entered the battlefield, but who have been secretly watching it all along.
Earth 1.
This is the world occupied by the first Lantern, Shadow Bane, and a large group of Third Legion members. The native inhabitants of this world, the Justice League, which is younger and weaker than the main universe, have been utterly defeated.
At this moment, both the first Lantern Knight and the Shadow Calamity were ignorantly using various methods to improve or restore their strength.
The original Lantern Knight has been dead for too long, while Shadow Calamity was severely injured during his time travel, making him in a similar predicament to the original Lantern Knight.
These severe injuries and damage meant that neither Chu Deng nor Ying Rong, who believed he was in control of the other, could spend much time on anything other than recovering their strength.
This gave the members of the Third Legion room to maneuver. So now, the actual controllers of the entire Earth 1 are the members of the Third Legion. They have replaced the two powerful figures who are busy recovering their strength. This means that if these members of the Third Legion do not want the two powerful figures to know something, they will never know.
For example, right now.
The Third Legion was in complete chaos, but Chu Deng and his companion remained completely oblivious.
The base of the first Lantern was built on Earth, and was slightly modified from the original Justice League headquarters on Earth.
At this moment, in the largest hall of the entire building, the Third Legion members, dressed in black robes, were densely packed together, making the scene noisy and bustling, like a vegetable market. However, as soon as one left the reception hall door, all the sounds would be blocked by pre-prepared magic, making them inaudible.
And the main reason why so many members of the Third Army Corps gathered together...
The group, still arguing, were only halfway through when a hyperspace portal suddenly opened above their heads, and a new member of the Third Legion emerged from behind the portal, falling to the ground with a thud.
He was wearing a limited-edition steampunk wasteland outfit, with sand still stuck to his legs.
As soon as he stood up, he looked around to make sure he was the last one to arrive, and then hurriedly began to speak:
"Hey, stop arguing, breaking news... I came from the failed Batman movie, Batman: Dragon Slayer totally messed up!"
He spoke so fast that he almost choked on his own saliva, and when he talked about Batman: Dragon, his eyes bulged like a toad in anger.
"...The Batman Who Laughs stole the power of the Bat Mite and, together with the Emperor Joker, forced Hal back into his timeline. The Emperor Joker and the Batman Who Laughs then secretly killed other beings in the fifth dimension and absorbed their power. Finally, Barbatos, the Emperor Joker, and the Batman Who Laughs engaged in a fierce three-way battle..."
"...And to prevent all of this from happening, we must intervene at crucial moments, such as..."
Before the wasteland punk, the Third Legion member in tattered clothes, could finish speaking, he turned his head and saw another portal spanning the hypertime stream open. The speed was like when your teacher writes on the blackboard during class. Just as you start copying notes, you look up and find that the teacher has already erased what they just wrote and started writing new content.
So when you were 14, you looked down and picked up a pen in math class, and from then on, you never understood a single math class again in your life.
The Third Legion members who returned this time were even more wasteland-style than the previous wasteland punks; one of their arms had even been replaced with a metal one, making them look like they were cosplaying the Winter Soldier from Marvel.
"I have the latest news. The timeline has changed. Although we stopped the Batman Who Laughs from seizing the power of the Bat Mite, we couldn't stop Batman Dragon from transferring the Bat Mite's power to Parallax Morhal as planned. And then everything went wrong!"
"What? Wasn't Batman Dragon planning to use Hal until he was done with him, then return the power of the Bat Mite to it?"
"Yes, that's what he thought, but in the timeline I came from, he messed things up. Not only did he fail to remove the bat mite power from Hal, but he also allowed Parallax Demon Hal to forcefully kill the Emperor Joker at all costs."
"With the power of the Emperor Joker and the Bat Mite, Hal is unstoppable. Batman and the Batman Who Laughs team up and manage to recruit the entire Justice League from the fifth dimension... Wonder Mite, Lightning Mite, Hawk Mite, and Green Lantern and Green Arrow Mite, there are several of them."
(Note: Yes, each member of the Justice League has their own corresponding five-dimensional being, but Green Arrow and Green Lantern are the only two people with only one five-dimensional being who supports them. This is what DC once promoted as the "friendship between the two Green Lanterns.")
"But Parallax Morhal utterly defeated all the five-dimensional beings and then absorbed their power."
"No one can suppress Parallax anymore. Barbatos is the last savior, but all hope has been dimmed when his wings were broken by Parallax."
The Third Army member who was speaking suddenly stopped halfway through his sentence.
As if realizing something, everyone in the hall fell silent almost simultaneously, and the entire hall became so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Smack smack smack...
One of the Third Legion members said, "Wait two more minutes, he'll eat something, and then go back to his seclusion."
The members of the Third Army Corps were quiet for two minutes, but once Huo Rong left, they began to chatter again.
Amidst the commotion, the new member continued to describe a terrifying future:
"The great hero Barbatos died in battle, the Batman Who Laughs tried to surrender but was killed, Batman Dragon surrendered, and the end of destruction came even sooner. Everyone united one last time to fight Parallax Morhal, and then they were utterly defeated... If it weren't for good luck, and Batman Dragon betraying us at the crucial moment, I almost wouldn't have been able to come back to warn you..."
Amidst the cacophony of their discussions,
"Then what do you suggest we do?"
"I have a way. When I came back, Batman Dragon had already devised a plan to change this future... Although he pretended to surrender at first, he was still the leader and strategist of the resistance."
The Third Legion member pulled a piece of paper from his pocket.
"Here is his report, which he has prepared. He calls this plan 'Dark Tide.' As long as we follow his instructions, we will definitely be able to..."
"Bullshit!"
As this wasteland Iron Arm Third Legion member pitched his futuristic Batman Dragon plan to the others, less than two seconds later, a portal opened beside him, and another Third Legion member fell through, gesturing wildly.
"Don't adopt his plan at all. It's completely useless. Batman Dragon has stuffed it with a ton of his own personal agenda."
The new Third Army member was grumbling and cursing:
"It's unbelievable! We followed Batman Dragon's so-called Dark Tide Plan, and at first it was fine. It seemed like everyone was weakened. But when we got to the final battle, we realized that the damned Batman Dragon was using the Dark Tide Plan to develop himself into the ultimate boss."
He looked furious, still cursing even after falling from the portal: "That bastard, just when I was about to claim my victory, suddenly wiped his face and vanished into thin air! All the enemies who had been teleported to other areas were back in front of me!"
This newest member of the Third Legion seemed to be the most enraged of all the people who had been teleported in so far; his veins were practically bulging with anger.
"You guys know what the most fucking ridiculous thing is? The most ridiculous thing is that they were all recruited by Batman. I fought against everyone for so long, only to find out in the end that it was a group of people pretending to be different enemies, playing house with me!"
He yelled, "If I hadn't run as fast as I could and threatened several innocent lives in the universe, I almost wouldn't have made it back!"
"Then what plan do you suggest we implement?"
"I don't know, but we can't carry out that Dark Tide Plan, otherwise we'll end up looking like idiots!"
The leading members of the Third Legion sighed, exchanged glances, and then one of them said:
"Alright, we really shouldn't just use Batman's plan without proper planning; it's far too dangerous."
He then announced that they would continue to discuss how to intervene in the fight between Batman and the Bat Mite, and what the consequences would be after intervention.
As he spoke, the constant opening of portals in the sky dropping off his Third Legion comrades came to a sudden halt. Just when everyone thought there was no longer a newer version of themselves in the new timeline, 5 to 7 portals opened above everyone's heads almost simultaneously.
Even though the members of the 3rd Legion present were almost all masters of time travel, they still managed to mess up the time it took for these newcomers to land on the ground.
Then everything descended into complete chaos. Members of the Third Legion argued with each other, talking about the future timelines they knew, and comparing how far away their timelines were.
Finally, they came up with a plan that, as it stands, is perfect. Most importantly, no member of the Third Legion from a future version jumped out to stop them the moment the plan was completed, which means that the plan is entirely feasible.
"It's time to act, men," said a leading member of the Third Legion. "Our goal is to prevent anyone from having the opportunity to strengthen themselves..."
"Only this way..."
He spoke in a low voice.
"Only in this way can my hometown be restored. I have never doubted this."
