The Collection of The End

——? ? ? ——

Anti-Monitor Tower.

Mobius was sitting on a chair waiting for the three women to discuss the results.

"We should choose those Batmans who have suffered misery, betrayed their families, and fought against the entire world with one person's power. The power of hatred is the most powerful!"

"No, no, I think Batman who completely controls Gotham or the Justice League is better. There is strength in numbers."

"Am I the only one who thinks rich people are the best?"

"Which Batman is poor?!" x2

"Yes..."

"There is a saying that 'when one person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven'," Mobius Chair said, "But I never expected that fifteen hundred ducks would ascend to heaven here."

"...What duck?" Mobius expressed confusion.

"Oh? You've traveled through so many timelines but never heard this joke?]" Mobius Chair replied: "A teacher taught two girls who were talking in class, saying, 'Two women are equal to a thousand ducks.' The teacher’s mother came to see him after class, so the girl who was being scolded said——]”

"Okay, I understand, don't explain the punchline of the joke," Mobius stopped the chair from finishing the joke: "I think they will have to argue for a long time. What's your suggestion?"

"My suggestion? The suggestions they put forward all focus on Batman's power, that is, how difficult it is for you to 'help them save their world', but what is important to you is 'willing to follow you out of the original world' Possibility - you are not really ready to fulfill your wish for the 'Black Holy Grail', are you?]" said the Mobius Chair.

"Indeed, I have to recruit a group of 'Batman' first, destroy the Court of Owls, erase the influence of the 'World Eater' or 'Khorne', and then use it to eliminate the traces of the other three existences and obtain Ms. Death. With the help of "Kang the Conqueror" and his minions, it is meaningless to simply save a single universe without bringing any thugs." Mobius agreed: "So, where should we go? A single universe?"

"I divided all the 'Gotham Universe' into a nine-square grid," Mobius Chair replied: "The three horizontal columns are 'Batman must be Bruce Wayne', 'Batman can be Bruce Wayne' En's recognized successor', 'Batman can call himself', and the three vertical columns are 'Batman will never kill, nor will he allow others to do it in front of him', 'Batman will never kill with his own hands, but will not Prevent other superheroes from taking action', 'Batman kills decisively'.]"

Following the words of the chair, the phantoms of the "Gotham Multiverse" projected into the air moved their positions and were arranged and combined according to the new rules.

It can be clearly seen that the single universe that restricts Batman to "must be Bruce Wayne" and "never kill anyone" accounts for the majority of the multiverse and is squeezed into the nine-square grid in the upper left corner like a soap bubble.

"This..." Mobius frowned and looked at the "bunch" of single universes.

"As you might imagine, the 'foraging' behavior of the 'Court of Owls' will be concentrated in the 'cosmic dense area'," Mobius Chair said: "From the perspective of the multiverse, 'distance' is not What is meaningful is 'connection'. Although the induction method I used is only one of them, the single universes in each 'grid' are indeed more closely connected to each other than to the universes of other grids. And after the 'Court of Owls' destroys a certain universe, it has a greater chance of going to other 'same grid' universes.]"

"And their priority in selecting targets is 'from big to small.'" The Mobius chair brings the two shadows of the "Gotham Universe" closer together. Although they are also centered on Gotham, the overall The sizes are very different, like watermelon and sesame seeds.

"They..." Mobius observed carefully and found that the former had expanded to extragalactic galaxies, while the latter's territory did not even include Metropolis.

"Based on a certain mystical principle, the closer it is to the upper left corner of the Nine Palaces Grid, the faster the universe will expand. The further it deviates from it, the more difficult the development will be, and it may even self-destruct midway - those are the ones feeding Barbatos,]" Mobius Chair continued: "The key lies in Krypton. Once 'Superman' appears, these 'cosmic balloons' will expand very fast, and will eventually be targeted by the 'Court of Owls'. It’s useless no matter how strong the cosmic superheroes are. The Court of Owls trying to defeat them is like popping an inflated balloon with a needle and popping - hey, they might as well change their name to the Court of Woodpeckers.]”

"So should we choose the big one or the small one?" Mobius reluctantly understood these words.

"My suggestion is to try them all. Let these eager ladies each choose a universe to help the Batman there. You can also choose a universe to practice.]" Mobius Chair said in a relaxed tone: "Don't worry, failure is success. Mother, if even with the help of the Counter-Monitor and his followers they cannot resist the offensive of the Court of Owls, then their original 'fate' is to be destroyed and devoured.]"

"Sounds good," Mobius raised his head: "You--"

"Ready!" x3

————

After a brief flicker of light and shadow, the Anti-Monitor tower fell silent.

The silence lasted...perhaps for a few minutes, or perhaps for hours, days, or centuries.

Because there is no change that symbolizes the flow of time, there is no way to tell.

Finally, the sound sounded again in the giant tower.

————

"Failed..." "Failed." "Failed?"

Fireproof Girl, Cortana and Indy appeared one after another, saying the same sentence in different tones, and said in unison with Mobius who finally appeared on the chair:

"Batman is dead."

After a brief silence, the three ladies started chattering again:

"I even helped him defeat Doomsday! Do you know Doomsday? Strong and invincible! As a result, Superman was infected by the Doomsday virus and attacked him from behind! Damn Kryptonian!"

"I helped him completely eliminate crime in Gotham, and everyone lived and worked in peace and contentment. Although the monitoring, laws and punishments were stricter, that was a necessary price... So why was he sentenced to 600 as Bruce Wayne? Years in prison?!”

"I am most unjustly accused! I have no contact with Batman at all. I am only cultivating Catwoman's financial acumen and letting her and her adoptive father's family replace Wayne Enterprises as the richest man in Gotham. Who knows why he died?"

After they argued for a while about who was at fault and who was wronged, they all turned their attention to Mobius, who had been silent since returning.

"I..." Mobius held his forehead: "I helped him repel the Court of Owls, handle the follow-up related to the Justice League, and successfully persuaded him to leave the original universe with me. Then, before leaving, he finally became Batman He was killed by the Joker while on patrol with his identity."
