The Death Knell

Now he is just a conscious body, existing in the consciousness space, but what is the connection between this and the fear venom?

He had been affected by bloodlust, and losing his mind would not have brought him here, but now his great fear had brought him to a place he had never been before.

etc......

Deathstroke is never afraid, and his brain makes him extremely rational all the time. So is it because he has never been afraid, and experiencing this emotion for the first time caused him to avoid self-awareness?

Is this blank space the embodiment of my own fear?

"Blankness is the biggest fear in my heart. What does it refer to..." Su Ming sat cross-legged in the air, scratching his chin with his hand.

If you want to leave this strange space, you must understand your own heart and look directly at yourself.

The battlefield is not a good place for epiphany. There is a lively fight outside, and I will be a living target if I don't move.

But don’t tell me, it’s quite refreshing to scratch your chin while floating in mid-air...

"That's right! That's it!" He discovered that he had no beard on his chin, and his mental form was that of Su Ming instead of Slade.

In this world where there is nothing but himself, he is the embodiment of fear. What Su Ming fears is to return to his mediocre self!

The moment he understood, countless figures appeared around him, walking towards him with smiles on their faces.

The different occupations of these people can also be seen from their clothing. Some are in suits and ties, some are wearing camouflage uniforms, some are dressed as tramps, and some are wearing hospital gowns with the name of a mental hospital written on them.

There were hundreds of people. They appeared out of thin air, walked toward him, and entered his body one by one. A large number of memories were restored instantly.

These were the Slades of the past. There was an existence that allowed Deathstroke to travel fluently in the endless world and be reincarnated again and again, but Su Ming's time travel changed everything.

"You remember." Su Ming nodded and spoke to himself strangely.

"Yes, someone obscured my memory and made me live and die as an ordinary person on different earths endlessly. The original memory was hidden in my human fear instinct. Because the death knell has no fear, it will only be subconscious. Just ignore these memories."

An accident from the outside world interrupted the cycle, causing Slade to appear as Deathstroke again.

"My memories and soul come from outside the DC world. To him, I am a high-dimensional existence. There is an 80% chance that my appearance affected his plan."

Su Ming said to his other 'self' that he knew what he was going to face.

"Your soul is a higher-dimensional existence. He can't erase you. I think he will exile us again." Slade's voice sounded in his head, and this voice was emotionless.

"Do you remember who you are?"

"I used to think I was you, or any of them, but those memories are so banal, like..."

"It's just like fake, right?" Su Ming said the next words for him: "In fact, you are trapped in an endless cycle of reincarnation, experiencing different lives."

Su Ming touched his head, but there was no discomfort in absorbing memories in this space. Those were the various lives that Slade had experienced countless times, and they were now integrated with Su Ming.

There is not much useful knowledge. Deathstroke already had a lot of knowledge, but now he feels that his soul is stronger and more energetic.

Because Su Ming's soul comes from outside DC, it has a higher dimension, and naturally becomes the strongest soul and controls everything.

"I am from the world of origin, a character in the game "Batman: Arkham Origins."" Slade replied in his body. He finally recalled his origin: "In an accident, I discovered that I was actually a game. For the characters in the game, I found a bug in the game and transcended that world, but because of this I entered the main DC universe, met that person, and was immediately thrown into an infinite loop."

"My soul is not under his control. He may have to use new methods this time." Su Ming has obtained some memories from those phantoms. The universes reincarnated before the death knell are all parallel worlds of DC. He should be Thrown into the era of infinite earths.

None of those lives were complete. None of them died. They all died unexpectedly.

Not only is the memory blocked, but the fate is also arranged...

"He will come to us. He sees me as the fault of the universe." Slade answered him, the armor flying from all directions reassembled on Su Ming, and he was armed again.

"Absolute reason does not bring absolute strength." Su Ming has always been cold to that guy: "You can rest, I will deal with him."

"Yeah, countless reincarnations, he may have planned to kill me like this. Fortunately, you are here." Slade's voice sounded: "Maybe my soul will dissipate, but our memory as a whole will It will last forever.”

"Yes, we are all Deathstroke, and I already have a plan to deal with him."

Su Ming was very calm. He felt that after accepting these memories, Slade and other previous reincarnated souls would probably no longer exist. There was no numerical basis, just a strong hunch.

Slade's voice disappeared, and Su Ming gained everything he had.

He raised his head and looked at the white world.

"I am Su Ming, and I am also Slade Wilson, codenamed Deathstroke. I am fear itself!"

The next second, the white space seemed to be stained with blood, and countless red liquids flowed down from the distant sky, turning everything into blood red. The world of consciousness then collapsed and shattered, and he returned to the streets of Binhai City, surrounded by nothing but a faint green light.

In the darkness of the sky, the sounds of weapons clashing continued to be heard.

"Slade?" Barry saw him open his eyes and leaned closer to ask tentatively.

"What's the matter Barry?" Su Ming fumbled with his cigarette case, took out one and lit it again.

"God, you actually overcame the fear venom. It is much harder to overcome human instincts with thinking than suppressing knee-jerk reflexes." Barry reached out and touched his arm, only to touch the cold icon armor.

"It's nothing, although there was a little accident during the execution of the plan." Su Ming took a puff of cigarette and answered him calmly.

"Uh...you seem to have changed a lot..."

"Is there any?"

"Well, I can't tell, but the feeling has changed." Barry gritted his teeth, saying that his vocabulary was not enough to describe it.

"Anyway, it doesn't matter if you get older. Besides, the accident brought me a lot of benefits. I found an...enemy." He patted Barry on the shoulder and took out another cigarette for Hal.

Hal waved his hands repeatedly: "I am a pilot and I don't smoke."

Su Ming shrugged. Seeing that he was in so much pain, he wanted to provide him with some nicotine, but this guy didn't appreciate it: "Your loss, this is the real imported product I brought from Earth Minus 11."

"Smoking won't help our current situation." Hal leaned against the wall angrily. At this time, he only felt pain all over his body.

"It's okay, I just let the ring fly for a while." Su Ming calmly pulled out the sword, held it under his arm, and looked up at the sky.

"ring?"

Hal wanted to ask more, but the sight in front of him answered him.

In the thick black sky, a golden trajectory fell straight from above and stopped in front of Su Ming.

There was a ring wrapped in golden light, engraved with fine patterns, and a cold voice sounded at the same time.

"Intelligent life has been locked. Su Ming from the Earth in Sector 2814. You have the ability to master and inflict great fear on others. Welcome to join the Sinestro Corps!"

Hal spit out bloody spit, struggled to get up, as if to stay away from him, and said with an expression full of disgust: "I knew Deathstroke could overcome fear not by relying on willpower, you just used fear as a tool!"

What else can it be used for but a tool? Deathstroke can use everything as a tool to achieve his goals.

Su Ming didn't care what Hal said, and he never planned to wear a yellow light ring.

Even if he puts on the ring and becomes a yellow lantern demon, he is still just a novice. He doesn't know how to manifest the fear creation or how to use the lantern ring. How can he fight against the treacherous lantern of dawn?

The ring slowly approached him, beckoning him to extend his finger. But he just held the giant sword and slashed it vertically, and the ring instantly split into two halves.

This approach made Hal and Barry confused, and their mouths opened unconsciously. The yellow light ring is a famous and powerful force in the universe. If Deathstroke didn't want it, why would Deathstroke bother himself?

Injecting fear venom is not good for your health.

"What are you doing? Do you regret it?" Hal asked Deathstroke with confusion on his face as he watched the fallen light ring rolling on the ground, emitting sparks like fireworks until they gradually dissipated.

"Hal Jordan, don't you understand why?"

Another voice sounded in the sky. He spoke in a familiar tone, but his tone was not friendly at all.

Hal felt as if he was struck by lightning, and his whole body became stiff. He was stunned for a second or two, and then he slowly sat down holding on to the wall.

"Sinestro..."

He understood why Deathstroke wanted to destroy the ring. As the leader of the Yellow Lantern, Sinestro certainly knew where the ring was going. What if the ring was flying in the direction of the Green Lantern city?

Hal once wore a yellow lantern ring and became the container of a lamp beast, but he changed his mind again. If someone in Marina City became a yellow lantern, then this person might be Hal Jordan.

Sinestro was also a Green Lantern and Hal's teacher and comrade-in-arms. However, because of some things he experienced, he betrayed the Green Lantern and became the leader of the Yellow Lantern of Fear.

Hal had fought and cooperated with him countless times, and the grievances and resentments between the two of them were endless.

When he discovered that there was a yellow light ring flying to Coastal City on Earth, he immediately became interested and followed the ring and flew over.

The original plan was to laugh at Hal, hit him hard, and then take Hal back to the Yellow Lantern headquarters to hold a welcome meeting for him. He still regarded Hal as a friend. The Yellow Lantern Corps also needs a powerful Green Lantern like Hal. traitor.

But he never expected that it was not Hal who attracted the ring, but Deathstroke. That wasn't the end of the story. He didn't seem to like the light ring at all, so he destroyed it conveniently.

Sinestro fell slowly from mid-air, looked up at the sky, and then looked at the man in front of him who was leisurely smoking a cigarette and putting away his sword, with a cunning smile on his face.

"It's a good plan. I like smart people. If you want to join my legion in the future, I can give you another ring... You have great potential, and even the light ring is afraid of you. "

Su Ming just held his helmet back and forth in front of him like a noble, nodded slightly, and did not answer.

Sinestro was very satisfied, he liked to see others obeying authority, so he turned his attention to Hal again. Looking at his half-dead ring with a faint green light, he sneered, and the mustache on his red face curled up.

"The green light is useless, Hal. I told you a long time ago. Now I will show you how the enemy you cannot destroy is defeated by fear!"
