The Death Knell

Time flies quickly, and the chaotic day will soon pass. Like predators living in the forest, people will return to their nests at night to count their harvests.

The city has become much quieter.

Now only Diana and Bobo are left in the Hall of Justice, and everyone else has been sent out to maintain law and order.

The effect was very limited. News from all over the world proved one thing: panic broke out. People fell into crazy hysteria, and Zhenglian members were almost like street rats at this time.

Barry arrested thousands of people in one day, but there were men, women, and children among them. They just wanted to obtain survival supplies.

The police stations and prisons do not accept these prisoners because they do not have enough food. Locking these people in will mean slowly starving them to death.

Arthur proposed using fish as food, and Mera thought it was okay. Maybe she could win some people's hearts. As long as they didn't oppose the Justice League, they could come to the door of the Hall of Justice every day to get a fish as a ration for the whole family to survive.

Although Diana thought this sounded like coercion, she had no better way, because the Amazon warriors on Paradise Island now also made a living by fishing.

The Atlanteans help with fishing, which can probably feed a city, but Mera is unwilling to give fish to people who oppose Zhenglian because she thinks it is funding the enemy.

Wonder Woman can only compromise, after all, the fish belongs to others.

She suddenly remembered that Deathstroke took her to the Iceberg Restaurant for dinner last night, which seemed very deliberate. Does that mean that Deathstroke had already expected that the earth would soon face a food crisis, so it would be better for the two of them to have one last meal together?

But she quickly shook her head, it was probably a coincidence.

Diana is responsible for commanding the overall situation. The boom communication system was repaired by Batman during the flood and is now operational.

The reason why Bobo stayed is even simpler. He is just a powerless orangutan. Do you expect him to go out and maintain law and order?

He was holding a cigar idly now, sitting on the table next to Diana, looking at the dark crowd outside the door of the Hall of Justice through the big screen.

These Luthor fanatics didn't even stock up on supplies. Instead, they held up banners and slogans, asking Zhenglian to hand over Superman and the murderers of the president and Luthor.

They stormed the Hall of Justice and threw incendiary bombs, but they were blocked by defensive barriers.

"If Deathstroke saw such a scene, he would probably kill them all." Bobo exhaled a puff of smoke and said suddenly.

Diana was stunned for a moment: "Why?"

"There are about three thousand people in Zhenglian Square now, and we all know that people all over the world are snapping up supplies now, and it can even be said that they have started plundering, but these people didn't go. Don't you think it's abnormal?" Bobo rubbed his hands. Rubbing his stomach, he was also a little hungry after talking about it.

"You mean there are Luthor people among them?" Wonder Woman frowned, but judging from the screen, everyone was an ordinary person.

"I can't say, but there is a possibility that someone organized them and promised them a reward, maybe a bag of flour, maybe a few bananas..." Bobo shrugged, somewhat helplessly. Said: "In this case, the Justice League cannot take any measures against them. Only mercenaries like Deathstroke can do whatever they want."

Diana slowly rubbed her face like a kitten washing her face, and made a vague voice: "No, you don't want to see the massacre in front of the Hall of Justice on the Internet."

Bobo nodded and sighed: "I know you also want to kill people. Luther wants people to do this. He retains the function of the Internet as a social channel, but during the day he allows people to compete with each other. What kind of freaks will this deformed society of communication and hostility turn human beings into..."

"External life supplies are extremely scarce, and the spirit will soon become dark under the stimulation of various negative news. What he wants is a beast that can speak and write." Diana sighed deeply, and she stood up: "Death Knell Where, tell me."

"I can't say." Bobo covered his mouth and shook his head like a rattle.

"Why? You should have revealed his location as soon as you came back. We need his help in this situation." Diana grabbed the orangutan's two hands and hung him up.

How could Bobo compete with Diana? He grinned and said, "If I betray him, he will definitely kill me in the future. He is not an animal protectionist."

"No, he is a good man." Diana said firmly, holding on to the orangutan and not letting go.

Bobo felt a pain in his heart, and his lips wriggled into the shape of waves. He wanted to say something, but couldn't.

............................

"You came."

Su Ming heard the sound of the stone door being pushed open. He leaned against the corner with his eyes closed, leaning on his sword.

"I am coming."

Batman appeared at the door with Jarlo in his arms. The torches in the corridor stretched the shadow of his pointed ears until it reached Deathstroke.

Su Ming propped up his body and opened his eyes, which were completely blood red: "It came later than I expected."

"I was in the Hall of Justice until Bobo and the others came back, and then I used Can Luo to read their memories and find your location." Batman walked into the small room with a smile on his face: "As for how Coming here, I have my own channel.”

"That piece of shit Constantine opened the portal for you, right?"

Su Ming smiled and shook his head. There were only a few people in the magic world who dared to confront him now.

Batman smiled and said nothing. He held his forehead and twitched, grabbing the top of his helmet hard, as if he wanted to tear his scalp through the helmet.

"Ahem! Give yourself a few shots first. I don't want to reminisce with the clown." Su Ming coughed and took out a bottle of wine from his pocket to moisten his throat.

Batman closed his eyes. He did not take out the laughing gas antidote, but used his willpower to suppress his madness again: "I have tried all the antidotes, but they are of no use, so I don't have much time."

"It seems that you came to this house, not to me. Constantine only sold you a one-way ticket." Su Ming smacked his lips. The alcohol made him feel better, at least he had recovered. Most mobility.

"I need to have a good talk with the Joker in a place without any interference. It's not an illusion, but he lives in my heart." Batman raised the can in his hand. The so-called talk naturally had to be in With the help of the psychic, he said: "But again, I still have a few questions to ask you."

"When will the debt you owe me be paid in full?" Su Ming asked first.

"If there is a future in our world." Batman approached the wall and stood side by side with Su Ming with his back against the wall. Then he slowly slid down and shrank to Su Ming's previous position: "Now let's talk , why do you want to reduce the dimensionality of the world?"

"One dimension is a point, two dimensions are lines, and three dimensions are reality. If you want to defeat Papetua, you must do it in reality, because that's what the giant eagle that sealed her did."

Su Ming replied calmly that the matter was a foregone conclusion and there was no need for him to hide it anymore.

"I see......"

Batman nodded and sighed deeply.

Everyone knows the information that Barry traveled through the Speed ​​Force, but only Deathstroke thought of the key. When Pappetua was sealed, there was no fourth dimension in everyone's life, so of course she was defeated in the third dimension.

Now, including himself, he has been looking for a solution in the fourth dimension, so how could he possibly find it?

"It's just that the three idiots, the Monitor, the Anti-Monitor, and the World Forger, didn't agree with each other. Instead of restarting the third dimension, they covered it with the fourth dimension. Now that there's something wrong with the fourth dimension, the Forger wants to do it again. Is the Sixth Dimension repeating its old trick? Forget it, no matter what you think, I don’t plan to accompany him to stack blocks."

Su Ming sneered and shouldered the sword.

"It seems that you have been prepared for a long time. You have arranged a dimensional protection array on the earth to protect our universe from being impacted during dimensionality reduction. When did you know that the matter was related to dimensions?"

"This." Su Ming stretched out a finger and flicked the Comedian's badge on his chest: "From the first time I saw that person and learned that he transcended the concept of time and space, I knew that this multidimensional Everything in the universe is about dimensions.”

"that person......"

"Yes, that hot blue man. The arrangement of the magic circle is on the one hand to prevent the invasion of demons from other dimensions, and more importantly to create a protective film and buffer between dimensions in our single universe. This is the principle of the protective magic circle. . It’s like putting a layer of rubber elastic balls on the outside of the fruit, which not only prevents insects from getting in, but also prevents the fruit from being broken when it falls to the ground.”

Batman narrowed his eyes: "Dimensionality reduction."

"Yes, I didn't expect to have to use it so soon, but even if there is no such thing as Papetua, if you want to connect with the super universe and even the omnipotent universe in the future, it is necessary to descend to the third dimension."

Su Ming stretched out a palm and pressed it, making a gesture of filling up the ravine.

"You are indeed...forget it, I understand." Batman opened his mouth, but swallowed the words.

"Only in this state can you be willing to listen to me and believe me. The clown toxin is a good thing." Su Ming knelt down and put the bottle into Batman's hand: "Selina's incident was an accident. That was not in my plan. The clown is too unexpected. Although she can still be resurrected, I still helped you find Thomas as an apology."

Batman didn't mind it, he opened it and took a sip, making a comfortable sound. His laughter was suppressed in his stomach, making a purring sound.

Why do bats make cat-like sounds?

"I'm still thinking of harmless ways to resurrect her, but it seems you already have a plan." Batman rubbed the wall, as if his back was itching, and the corners of his mouth kept twitching.

Su Ming nodded and stood up: "At the last moment, just use high-dimensional power to resurrect, although you need the help of several other people..."

Upon hearing this answer, Batman trembled and gradually stabilized.

"I originally wanted to tell you Luther's recent actions, but it seems there is no need. He is making trouble in the fish tank, but you are the hand holding the fish tank."

He closed his eyes and patted his knees gently, as if applauding:

"So, you must have the troublemaker's drawing board in your hands. You are luring Papetua into the third dimension and integrating with the world, just like she originally integrated into our multiverse from the outside... And then you deliver the killing blow from a higher dimension, you’re so tolerant.”

Su Ming shrugged and smiled: "Although I also want to tell you what it feels like for Deathstroke to lurk motionless in the swamps of Vietnam for a month, but now is not the time. We now need to let Luther perform desperately and make the world infinite. Close to his vision, then Papetua will start to transform it into a weapon, and then is our chance, probably only for a moment."

"That's enough." Batman wiped his mouth: "Good job, hee, cough cough..."

"Hey~~~!" Su Ming looked disgusted, stood up and walked to the door: "Leave the issue of dimensions to the Supreme Mage and me. You and the clown have a good talk. It's not a good idea for the couple to always be at odds. thing......"

"Wait!" Batman stretched out a hand like Erkan.

"Say." Su Ming turned around and let Batman continue to admire his tall back.

"If, I mean if, I completely lose control, you have to kill me." Batman looked ferocious, but he still managed to say this: "I must not become a monster like the Laughing Bat. "

Su Ming sighed and slowly closed the stone door: "I don't think you can, but I promise you, if you go completely crazy, I will blow your head off myself... Goodbye, Batman."

"Goodbye, Deathstroke."

As the door closed, two voices seemed to come from the separated darkness, speaking in unison, one was very serious, the other was very unserious...
