Chapter 744 Barbatos Won't Make a Deal with Batman
The melting pot of the world.
Barbatos was lying on the skeleton of the World Maker, even though he knew his master was not truly dead.
He took a deep breath.
Gritting his teeth, trembling, he whispered, fighting against the heavy echoes in his ears.
He stole the main universe's Batman from Batman Dragon, and with the help of Bruce Wayne from the main universe, he was able to extract large amounts of dark matter universe energy from the Dark Multiverse.
In conclusion, Barbatos has temporarily accepted the fact that he did not actually kill the World Forger.
We've had enough of fear.
The dragon of the Dark Multiverse regained his composure and began plotting his next counterattack. Those who dared to fool him, he would teach them a lesson…
who is it?
Suddenly, Barbatos was taken aback.
He sensed a creature beyond his control appearing in the World Forge, right under his nose. His first thought was of the list of enemies who might have entered without his permission:
World-class foundry! ?
In an instant, a familiar sense of dread froze Barbatos's entire body; his tail fell to the ground like a rope. He turned around and spread his wings—
He spat out a bolt of purple lightning into the shadows to the side.
It's like exhaling a wisp of white mist in winter.
And the magician was born after a puff of white smoke.
"Anti-surveillance agents?"
Barbatos's tail stood up.
Oh, that's true.
He once transformed the Anti-Monitor's puppet into the Anti-Monitor Dragon and turned it into his own Barbatos Dragon. The puppet still possessed the power of Barbatos, but it had broken free from his control.
"Don't be so surprised, little guy." Then Barbatos heard the Anti-Monitor's voice: "As your former pet, can't you come back to your owner's house and play?"
The Anti-Monitor makes no secret of the fact that his avatar was once Barbatos's pet, but this only adds to Barbatos's stress.
Ultimately, that matter...
Barbatos's use of his teammates as supplements is indeed wrong.
But the reasoning wasn't important. What mattered was that at that time, Barbatos was strong and the Anti-Monitor was upstream in the Hypertime Stream. No matter how you fooled him, there would be no consequences, and no matter how angry you were, you couldn't hit Barbatos.
But now, things are different.
The abduction of Superman from the main universe caused the hyperchronic flow to collapse further. After the Monitors even went so far as to send the cosmic tuning fork downstream of the hyperchronic flow, the Anti-Monitors were able to inject more power downstream.
Barbatos understood just how terrible this was.
So the other party came to settle scores and seek revenge.
"Damn it... wait, listen to me." Barbatos said slowly as he backed away, "You don't want Perpetua to come down from the Origin Wall, or the Hand of the Void to rush into this universe."
"Yes, I can't."
Upon hearing the anti-surveillance agent's agreement, Barbatos became increasingly confused. He had initially thought the other party was there for revenge, but now it didn't seem so.
"Aren't you going to be more honest?"
"Alright, Barbatos, you little rascal," he said, "tell me, where exactly is Batman in the main universe?"
"I won't tell you," Barbatos said.
"Let's make a deal, Barbatos," the Anti-Monitor said.
"I now have many options for you to choose from. Believe me, I am a more benevolent and generous master than my brother, the World Maker."
"No matter how strong you are, can you help me get rid of this control?"
Barbatos twitched the corner of his mouth beneath his hood.
"sure."
"What?"
"I said of course I can. Oh, Barbatos, Barbatos. Poor little dog, you don't understand the chasm between us."
Barbatos knew that what the anti-surveillance agent said was true.
During the Crisis on Infinite Earths, he had become so powerful that he was almost capable of destroying all positive matter universes and completely dominating the DC multiverse.
If he could truly unleash the power he possessed during his time as the Anti-Imprisonment Demon King while traveling through the trans-timeline, everyone would have to submit to him.
"Of course, I can't directly help you get rid of those two enemies, especially the influence of my cruel and vicious mother."
But I can help you fight them, until time gradually erases their voices from your mind.
Barbatos heard the Anti-Monitor say, "Come on, I think my promises are generous enough. You need Batman because you need him to roam the Dark Multiverse, absorbing dark matter energy to help you fight the control, right? I can directly help you break free from the control now. You're just trying it out, what's the harm?"
Barbatos became slightly more serious.
"What exactly do you want the main universe Batman to do? He's just the original Bruce Wayne, without even superpowers."
Although Barbatos knew it was pointless to ask, and that the Anti-Monitor wouldn't tell him what its plans were, he still wanted to try. Then he saw the Anti-Monitor give him a meaningful smile:
"You don't need to know what I'll do with the goods after I take them, do you?"
Then they were both frozen in place, neither Barbatos nor the Anti-Monitor speaking. Barbatos was weighing the options in his mind, wondering whether he should agree to the other's request.
Barbatos could sense that the Anti-Monitor wasn't lying; he did indeed possess some ability to free Barbatos from the control he was under. Although it wasn't an instantaneous process but rather a gradual one, the sudden increase in the progress bar was still tempting for Barbatos.
"Unless you tell me what you need the main universe Batman for, I won't hand him over to you," Barbatos said.
In his plan, the main universe's Batman is also a key part. Although he is a mortal, he carries the clear destiny of the multiverse. Moreover, Barbatos has an important responsibility as the Bat God, which means that he can use Batman to interfere with fate and guide it in a direction more favorable to himself.
Even when he was entrenched in the Dark Multiverse, he used this ability to weave Batman's destiny on numerous occasions.
He created the entire Dark Knights order partly by adapting to local conditions and partly by chance.
"...You probably don't know that the Cosmic Tuning Fork was lowered from the upstream of the hypertime stream by the Monitor...he..."
"You want to escape using a cosmic tuning fork?" Barbatos boldly speculated. It was baseless and seemed absurd, but that's what he thought.
"Yes, this is part of my plan," the counter-surveillance agent said.
"I don't intend to treat you like a fool. The Batman of the main universe is helpful to my plans, while dealing with the hidden dangers in you is helpful to you."
I believe you have your own plans, Barbatos, but a good plan should be carried out under physical conditions without any hidden dangers, right? So now, give your final decision.
"To comply, or to refuse?"
The counter-surveillance agents waited for Barbatos to speak. He appeared very sincere.
He received an answer very quickly.
"No."
"You'd better make this decision after careful consideration."
"That's right, Anti-Monitor. No matter what conditions you offer now, I will never give you the Batman from the main universe."
The Anti-Monitor Dragon, controlled by the Anti-Monitor, darkened its expression: "What a pity. What's the reason?"
Even at this point, he still didn't give up and tried to dissuade him by using Barbatos's reasons.
Then he heard Barbatos say, "You don't understand... I only got the main universe Batman with Batman Dragon's permission."
"So what?"
"Sigh, I don't think you understand," Barbatos sighed deliberately, then said, "I can't just take a friend's things without their permission..."
"Let's go make a deal."
Barbatos was just spouting nonsense about friends and the idea that you can't trade with your friends' things.
Barbatos would never consider anyone a friend; in his eyes, there were only slaves and playthings.
He simply created a seemingly plausible but ultimately unsolvable reason for the anti-surveillance agents, subtly demonstrating to them that he would not waver under any circumstances.
The anti-surveillance agent finally backed down in front of Barbatos, despite his confident demeanor throughout.
To be honest, Barbatos was already tempted.
Being controlled is definitely not a good feeling; you can't exert much of your strength at all.
However, the events surrounding the World Forger served as a wake-up call for Barbatos, making him realize that when facing a sixth-dimensional deity, especially if the other party presents you with a seemingly well-planned path to heaven, you must not be foolish enough to step onto it.
He had already learned his lesson once. Back then, when his master, the World Builder, exposed his soft neck to him, he had already made the arrangements. For hundreds of millions of years since then, Barbatos had been under his remote control without his knowledge.
Barbatos will not fall into the same trap twice.
"Are you really sure about this?"
The Anti-Monitor asked, "You're even willing to fight me here, the Anti-Monitor Dragon I control? Are you really confident you can drag this body out of the World Forge?"
"Yes, I'm ready."
Dark fangs crept out from Barbatos's mouth as he staggered off the corpse of the World Builder, making it impossible for the Anti-Monitor to tell whether he was feigning weakness or truly exhausted.
"To protect my friends."
He said this.
He shut up the anti-surveillance person with a ridiculous excuse. Nothing is more ironic than someone who rejects you spouting ridiculous reasons in a sarcastic tone.
The anti-monitor dragon pounced.
Barbatos was locked in a fierce battle with his opponent, and he had now fallen to the point where he was still at a disadvantage even in close combat with his opponent in the World Furnace, his stronghold.
Barbatos felt his wings being torn apart by the claws of the Anti-Monitor Dragon and screamed in agony.
He tried to mobilize power through the World Forge, but was almost swayed by Papetua's whispers.
The anti-monitor was startled and quickly paused his attack. He only wanted to force Barbatos into submission with his attack, rather than let him be completely controlled by Papetua.
But why, why would he risk being controlled to fight him to the bitter end?
Is he really that sure Batman in the main universe is important? Even if we take a step back and say that he is important to the Anti-Monitor, hasn't Barbatos considered the fact that this guy is just a piece of useless trash in his hands?
But Barbatos didn't think that far ahead. He never doubted his decision, but he still hoped...
Leaving the main universe Batman alive, that damn decision, will bring him better results in the future!
Barbatos wouldn't trade Batman; he's the god of bats, just as no one would exchange gold for sand, would they?
……
……
……
The first Lantern Man never imagined he would end up with the Batman Who Laughs and the Time Limiter.
The Bat Who Laughs aside, if anyone remembers, the Time Trapped is Superman Supreme, and Superman Supreme is the culprit who destroyed Earth 15.
The first Lantern was the last survivor of Earth-15.
In other words, the first Lantern Knight is joining forces with the enemy who destroyed his hometown.
The first Lantern Knight, Huo Rong, took two deep breaths. He had to make sure he didn't pounce on the Trapped One and bite him when he saw him again later.
Everything was for a better ending, a more glorious mission. He had been preparing for this for many years. The first Genie knew very well that he was not an avenger, but a redeemer, trying to bring back the years that now only existed in his memory.
Those who seek redemption should not act on emotion. If cooperating with their enemy can save their world, then no matter how sad or angry they are, the first Lantern Knight must continue to move forward.
This is his life.
No one forced him to do this; it was his own choice.
He can handle it.
Beside him were countless supervillains from the main universe.
Leopard Woman, Gorilla Grood, Giant Woman...
After the Flashpoint timeline was rebooted, all these villains from the main universe gathered under the Batman Who Laughs's command, like Venom clinging to Fang.
As he entered the hall, he heard people around him whispering.
"Hey, you guys know what? That idiot's here again."
"Who?"
"When a supervillain tries to resurrect his own mother, that giant baby."
"Pfft... No way, really?"
"Mommy, Mommy, I want to drink milk, Mommy, Mommy's milk?"
"That's right, absolutely. It's the funniest reason among all the villains here. Apart from the King of Condiments, I've never seen a guy with a funnier reason for being a villain."
"Okay, then why does the Batman Who Laughs value him so much?"
"Who knows, maybe..."
The first Lantern Man shook his head, ignoring the idiots' whispers, and walked directly through the living room into the back room.
Inside, the Laughing Bat and the Time Trapped were both waiting for him.
"Giant baby..."
He could also hear the whispers of other people in the hall.
But so what? It's just a little breeze and frost.
