The Knights of the DC House

Chapter 35: The Depths of the Universe

After passing through this special black hole, he followed the cosmic bandit named Ye Xian to the so-called Night City, which was the former capital of Krypton, Kandor City. Ke Wen also didn't understand the situation. According to Alex

According to the coordinates provided, this should be the Kryptonian prison that broke away from the Phantom Zone and where many Kryptonians and other cosmic beings are imprisoned. This is where the Phantom Prison is located.

Why did it become a Kryptonian city and a den of bandits from other universes? It doesn't matter. After all, the history of the New 52 has been turned into a mess due to the intervention of Dr. Manhattan and his own time travel. It cannot be taken away at all.

Let’s compare it with the history of the old 52 universes. Whether it is the City of Night or the City of Kandor, they are only the heritage and ruins of Krypton, and there are no Kryptonians on them anymore.

So the question is, if this is Kandor City, then where is the phantom prison that was supposed to be here and was explored by Ke Wen? Ke Wen can't think of it, but he has no idea of ​​​​leaving this spaceship. Maybe

In this city of night, he might still be able to find clues about the phantom prison. Just as Ke Wen was thinking this, the city of night sitting on the boulder also detected that the space robber had also preceded this ship.

As soon as the spaceship entered, several Kryptonian spaceships separated from Night City and flew in front of the spaceship.

"Hey, newcomer, welcome to Night City."

The communication channel was connected, and several cosmic faces of humanoid creatures also appeared in the spacecraft. At the same time, a bunch of cosmic languages ​​​​that Ke Wen could not understand were also shouted out. But Ke Wen could guess what the words at the beginning were without thinking.

, usually the first time the protagonist of a movie enters a certain illegal city or illegal zone, the opening scene is basically like this, and it is similar to the universe, not to mention that this is also a place where all kinds of cosmic bandits gather.

And when this space bandit was communicating with the local snakes of this night city, Ke Wen also let go of his perception and directly explored the species of the spacemen driving the Kryptonian spaceships. His face was also embarrassed.

Because in his perception, the astronauts in these spaceships not only have strange shapes, but also have strange body parts.

Some limbs have all been replaced by Kryptonian machinery, some are simpler, with a layer of flesh and blood tissue covering the mechanical limbs, and some even have mechanical limbs all over the body. Except for the organ used for thinking, which is the body, these

This scene made Ke Wen dumbfounded.

"Good guy, is cyberpunk popular in this universe? Am I traveling directly to the near future or something like that? It's such a strong cyberpunk style?"

Just when Ke Wen was complaining in Chinese, the cosmic bandit who was communicating with the local snake in the language of the universe also noticed the movement of Ke Wen, a strong man. Similarly, the cosmic bandit in Night City who was communicating with this cosmic bandit also noticed

After noticing Ke Wen, the communication in the communication channel began to become more frequent. Faced with this kind of communication in which he could not get a word in, Ke Wen was too lazy to capture the audio and translate it.

The portal opened and he appeared directly in this dark universe without transforming. He released omega rays directly from his eyes and made a circular cut at one of the spaceships, leaving it without any power to float in the universe. Do

After all this, Ke Wen returned to the spacecraft, still maintaining his previous actions, but the red light in his eyes slowly dissipated.

The communication between the local snake and Brother Chu came to an abrupt end. The other several spaceships did not make any big moves. They just stretched out the mechanical arms from the spacecraft to support the companion's spacecraft and led the way. Seeing Ke Wen easily leaving his spaceship,

He also disabled a spaceship on the opposite side, and after the other person said nothing, he also honestly controlled the spacecraft and followed him.

"Instead of talking so much nonsense, why not be simple and just show force? How can they continue to ask you for protection money in the face of powerful force?" The mental fluctuations came out, and Ke Wen was also there to see this first-timer.

The space bandit from Night City said.

'That's what you said, but do you know what we were talking about just now? Isn't this your first time here?'

'It's my first time here, it doesn't mean I don't know anything. It was just a routine interview with local snakes, and then I asked you, a newcomer, to pay the entrance fee according to the regulations. I just happened to see my face on the spaceship, so I have to pay the extra fee.

Money, the amount of money is more than you can afford, so you're negotiating with them.'

'How do you know?'

'Generally in movies, TV series and novels, the opening lines of local snakes are played like this.'

'What are movies, TV series and novels?'

The cosmic bandit's question came to him with some curious mental fluctuations, which made Ke Wen fall into silence. Looking at the cosmic man in front of him, Ke Wen didn't have the feeling of a countryman entering the city in his heart. He said that he

It's not an exaggeration to say that he is a countryman. Even if the earth really has a lot of black technology, it still has a lot of top combat power, but when it comes to real civilian technology, it's okay, it's still wandering on the moon, and it won't come down for a long time.

Compared with these civilizations that can single-handedly fly spaceships through space, it is like modern people watching primitive people playing with fire. But now that people say this, okay, emotional space people have no spiritual entertainment life? It turns out that

Don’t know what movies, TV series and novels are? Thinking like this, Ke Wen once again sent a bunch of images to this space pirate. In order to scare him, Ke Wen sent the Ultraman series, Pacific Rim series, and Godzilla series.

Plus a bunch of science fiction movies.

When he passed it on, he didn't tell it that this was a so-called movie. He just wanted to know what kind of expression this space bandit would have when he first came into contact with this.

Soon, Ke Wen got the answer. This space bandit, who looked like he was not a good person at first glance, received these image data transmitted by the strong man in front of him who could physically travel through the universe. After reading them at an extremely fast speed, he said nothing.

Said, he knelt down directly in front of Ke Wen, but Ke Wen was stunned. Didn't he just send some small movie images, as for kneeling down for me?

'Please forgive me for my rashness, is this the civilization you live in? How powerful it is!'

Oh no, you kid, how come you are so enlightened? When this cosmic bandit sent such mental fluctuations, Ke Wen was immediately confused. He co-authored this guy and directly believed that these things on earth belong to people's thoughts about the future and their thoughts about the future.

Is the universe or even the works of art created by reflections on war real? For a moment, Ke Wen didn’t know how to explain to this cosmic bandit what movies and TV series were. According to the mental fluctuations transmitted by this guy, he didn’t think he was in

Lie to him.

In the images passed to me by adults, there are also people who turned into light and even became giants like adults. So the so-called movie is to record the story that really happened and then recreate it in real life with the same existence, right?

.I didn’t expect that the universe is so vast. Krypton has been destroyed for so many years. It turns out that there are still such advanced civilizations in the universe. No wonder the earth can repel the attack of Apokolips. With such civilization protection, the earth can repel Apokolips.

Attacking is also natural.

Well, Ke Wen didn’t even have time to explain much. The space bandit in front of him helped Ke Wen complete all the settings. Even if he thought about it with his toes, Ke Wen could think that the setting he made up was that there is a kingdom of light in the universe.

, lives the largest evil force in the universe, the giant family of light. As for the completion of the setting of this space bandit, Ke Wen no longer cares, he just stood there and spoke directly to this guy.

'Give me a whole thing that can talk to other cosmic beings.'

‘Sir, don’t you need to speak the Universal Language over there?’

'Have you seen the transformed light giant open his mouth to speak? We speak our own dialect.'

'Yes, as powerful as you are, there is no need to deliberately follow the universal rules in the universe. A powerful civilization always has the right to speak.'

The cosmic bandit nodded with deep understanding. Ke Wen didn't know which way to complain better. He could only keep aloof and took the universal language translator he handed over, similar to that of Earth.

I adjusted the headset on my computer. It was the first time I used this kind of universal translator. Compared with when people on earth communicated with each other, they had to turn on Youdao to read subtitles and listen to the pronunciation. It was so overwhelming.

Ten years or even a century of technology.

Before Ke Wen could conduct a test, looking at the Night City that was getting closer outside, Ke Wen also let out an exclamation unique to earthlings.

"Fuck!"

A damn sentence blurted out, and Ke Wen's earthly classic quotation, through the cosmic translator, became a word with the same meaning in the ears of the space bandits. He looked up at Ke Wen, and then he seemed to understand

He nodded. Sure enough, no matter which civilization he is in, every intelligent life has the same reaction when seeing something that he cannot accept or understand. This is what the cosmic bandit thought.

The reason why Ke Wen was so surprised was because he saw such a scene in this night city. Compared with the previous scene from a distance, the visual effect brought by this close-up view shocked Ke Wen's eyes even more. Looking around

Go, here are astronauts from all over the universe. At the airport, there are all kinds of spaceships parked together. Some of them look high-end and classy, ​​while others look like they were taken out of the trash and put together.

Junk goods, on the verge of barely being able to fly.

As for the airport where he stayed, Ke Wen could also see some cosmonauts with intact bodies like himself, but more of them looked like the local snakes he had just seen in space.

On the street, there are seven or eight cosmic children, who are basically humanoid life forms. However, these children are more or less equipped with prosthetics. As they walk on the street, they make clanging sounds as their bodies sway.

Loud noise. Pedestrians on the street are also used to the noises made by these young children when they are playing. Occasionally, there are a few people with disgusted expressions. Well, most likely, like Ke Wen, this is their first time here.

Or the second time, I haven’t gotten used to it yet.

In fact, Ke Wen is not used to it. He has also been exposed to the works of the Cyberpunk series, but this is the first time that it is truly displayed in front of him like this, and it is also in the universe, above the capital of Krypton, Kandor City.

Damn it, the comics only said that Krypton had the Clone Wars. When did it say that Krypton also played cyberpunk?

This is not the most exciting thing. Part of it is a prosthetic body, but the overall appearance is still human, or partially human. But since it is cyberpunk, there are a lot of operations like not being human. Speaking of which, from the spaceship

Ke Wen, who came out of the airport, also glanced at the airport berth. Private airships were not allowed in the airport, only city airships could be used for transportation. Then he saw this scene.

"Hey, let's go to the best neighborhood for girls." A male spaceman knocked on the door of a spaceship, shook the currency in his hand, and said a topic that both of them understood.

"That's it? You'd better find a girl on the street to solve the problem. The money you have is only enough for an hour, and you are still the worst type of girl. After all, the best girls are complete and playful, even if they are

At the very least, it’s not something you can afford.”

Ke Wen noticed that the cockpit of this city spaceship was very small. At least in Ke Wen's opinion, it was not big enough for a child to sit in, let alone an adult. However, the thumbnail civilization in the universe is also possible, and he also

I don’t have much curiosity, I just want to see what the driver looks like under the hatch. The porthole rolled down, revealing the appearance of the cockpit, but this so-called cockpit can’t see anything related to the cockpit at all. Ke Wen can see

All that arrived were intricate wiring and a thing with a camera.

The camera moved up and down to glance at the currency in the passenger's hand, and then used the words of an experienced person to educate him.

"That's why I'm looking for you. I think you will find me a good place with good quality and low price. Then, I can give you some hard work, right?"

"Come up."

The hatch opened and the passengers boarded the ship. Ke Wen also let go of his senses and used the convenience of the planetary library to lock the trajectory of the city spaceship. He watched it turn a block and stopped at a Big Bird Bar. At the door of the bar,

The tall and muscular male cosmonaut looked at the passengers coming down, straightened his crotch and made a jingling sound. The passenger smiled at the doorman and then walked in.

Ke Wen also looked at the flying creature icon that kept spinning in circles above the bar. He also took back his perception and cursed at the same time.

"Fuck! This is too fucking cyberpunk!"

"Sir, I remember that in the mental waves you transmitted, there are also related deeds about your civilization. Why are you so angry?"

"That's because for our civilization, this is a tragedy of the era. The body and organs should not be commodities used for trading. Once this era begins, it will be an absolute oppression of the weak by the strong, and

In the long history of our civilization, a race that only oppresses the weak cannot survive forever. The same is true for us as intelligent life forms. If organ trading and reproduction for others becomes a phenomenon, it will no longer be possible.

Respecting life will only lead to one thing, and that is that intelligent life is no longer an intelligent life, but just a beast!"

"Ah, sir, you really live in a great civilization."

Regarding Ke Wen's opinion, the space robber also expressed heartfelt emotions, which made Ke Wen not know how to respond to him. But through his first impression of falling into this so-called night city, Ke Wen not only had a deep feeling in his mind

A question arises, is this really the city of Kandor, the ruins of Krypton?

The Kryptonian technology that was so prosperous for a while was directly downgraded to cyberpunk? This is too low. It’s not that he looks down on cyberpunk, but it’s just that in a civilization like Krypton, organs, bodies, etc. need to be bought and sold. It’s absolutely fine.

Well, the kind of re-engineering, Kryptonian technology can easily do this, and it is not limited to the military, but has become a civilian category.

Looking at this night city with a strong cyberpunk flavor, Ke Wen can only say that it is well-deserved to be called the night city. The universe is dark and there are not even stars. In such an environment,

Only this city is glowing like a perpetual motion machine, so what's the problem with being called the City of Night?

Thinking of this, Ke Wen was speechless for a while. Why did he take a spaceship, hitchhike, and dig a hole directly like traveling through time, and come directly to such a place?

"Oh, it really opened my eyes." Looking at this city, Ke Wen didn't have a specific goal. After coming out of the airport, he didn't know where to start, so he could only sigh there.

As a lone ranger, he met someone like Ke Wen who could travel the universe physically. The space bandit had no intention of leaving yet. He also had his own little idea. If he could let this powerful being take back his civilization,

It's not impossible to be a servant or something.

Recalling the scenes that Ke Wen had previously transmitted back through mental fluctuations, he also yearned for such a powerful civilization. He just wanted to see if he had such luck and give it a try. So when Ke Wen felt emotional, he

He also approached me appropriately and asked.

"What do you mean, my lord?"

"This city, the City of Night, deserves its name. I didn't expect it to unfold in such a way, leaving a passage in the cosmic area we were in just now, and using that passage to take us to this remote cosmic area. We didn't even know the coordinates.

Record, no matter you leave or enter, you can only go through the passage just now, and the safety is greatly guaranteed. Should I say that the people who control this city are smart, or should I say that the Kryptonian technology is shocking."

"Uh... Actually, sir, you are only half right." Listening to Ke Wen's emotion, this cosmonaut who knows how to behave also subconsciously corrected him.

"Oh? Which half was I wrong about?"

Ke Wen, who was slapped in the face, was not annoyed and asked directly.

"We did come to Night City through that passage, but Night City is not in a remote area of ​​the universe. To be precise, we are not in the plane of the universe where we are now. The universe we are in now is a four-dimensional universe.

, that universe where gods live.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the expression on Ke Wen's face froze, and the words of the space robber Ye Xian echoed in his mind, the four-dimensional universe, gods. In the DC universe, what does the four-dimensional universe represent? Ke Wen knows very well, Da

The universe where Xade and other new dark gods live is also where Apokolips launches its invasions into the multiverse again and again, including its own Earth.

That is to say, in this four-dimensional universe, Apokolips and the corresponding New God of the New Creation Star are the overlords of this four-dimensional universe. Is this a direct steal of the high ground? Looking at the dark space outside, Ke Wen

The mood is extremely complicated.
