The Knights of the DC House

Three days after the Blackest Night event, the event that swept the entire universe also entered a calming down stage. As Ke Wen used the power of the spirit of existence to revitalize the universe, everything was back on track. Death

It was the most terrifying thing, but the spirit of existence reversed this most terrifying thing. The resurrected creatures and cosmic civilizations also organized their own manpower to rebuild order in their own cosmic sectors.

As the Green Lantern Corps, which maintains the order of the universe, and other Lantern Corps, which are in conflict with each other, have also entered a truce period under such a general environment. The current universe does not have the energy to go through it again, whether it is a local war or a comprehensive war.

War, as for the last blue light ring among the light rings, Ke Wen also separated it from himself after returning to the earth, and returned it to the only two remaining guardians of the universe, Gunther and Said.

Sector 0 of the universe, Oa, the headquarters of the Green Lantern Corps. As the center of the Guardians of the Universe and the headquarters of the Green Lantern Corps, it is naturally also within the scope of care of Ke Wen's spirit of existence, although it has resurrected those Green Lanterns who died in the Black Lantern Army.

Hero, but as the commander-in-chief of the Green Lantern Corps, the Guardians of the Universe were not resurrected, because strictly speaking, they did not die at the hands of the Black Lantern Army, but were killed by Scarface, who was also a Guardian, and could not be counted.

The line of resurrection.

Now, there are only two remaining guardians of the universe, Gunther and Said, in the universe. These two guardians of the universe who have not stripped away their emotions looked at their home planet and were speechless for a long time, because they knew,

As guardians of the universe, they have responsibilities.

"Gunther, what should we do next?" Said, the female guardian of the universe, looked at the companion next to him, a wise man who had no emotions like him. At this time, he hid his hands in his sleeves, frowned, and remained silent.

.

After a long time, the guardian stretched out his hand, and the blue light ring he made floated out again and came to Said's hand.

"The Green Lantern Corps cannot live without its guardians, and the Seven Lantern Corps also needs to live up to its name. Seid, from today on, you are the guardian of the universe of the Blue Lantern Corps."

"What about you?" Said asked uneasily while holding the blue light ring in his hand.

"I need to shoulder my responsibilities. We are the only ones left as guardians of the universe. Our original intention is correct. Guardians of the universe cannot be swayed by emotions, but we cannot be controlled by absolute rationality. Therefore, we all have to

Make a sacrifice, and keep my emotions with you, Said, for the sake of this endless universe."

Turning to look at the Guardian of the Universe who was walking side by side with him, Guardian Ganser put his finger on his forehead, and a piece of his life emotion was stripped out and handed into Said's hands. The originally kind and kind face also

As Ganser's emotions were withdrawn, he gradually became cold, turned into a ball of colorful light, and handed it to Said. From then on, there was no longer Ganser the Wise Man, only Ganser the Guardian of the Universe.

In Said's reluctant eyes, Gunther led the resurrected Green Lantern Corps and settled in the Oa star again. The energy battery in the center lit up again, green, representing will, and the light of life once again emerged from the planet.

It lights up, but in this light, an unspoken feeling is buried.

Universe, Sector 2812, Earth, Watchtower, Justice League Headquarters. As the final battle center of this major event, Earth was the most severely damaged, but it also performed the most outstandingly. At least in terms of post-disaster reconstruction work, With the big infrastructure maniac leading the way, and the fact that the Black Lantern Army is only targeting lives for massacre, the reconstruction work is not so difficult to complete, but in terms of post-disaster psychological construction, it is hard to say how long it will take.

But these have nothing to do with the members of the Justice League who are meeting in the watchtower today. At this moment, they are gathered here for a more important meeting. At this time, in the watchtower, several elders are being contacted. Except for Wonder Woman who was resting at the En Manor and was unable to attend, Superman, Batman, Martian Manhunter, Green Lantern Hal, The Flash, Aquaman, Green Arrow, Hawkman and Hawkgirl, and the mysterious Zatara gathered here, waiting. The meeting initiator, Batman, spoke.

"Everyone, three days have passed since the Blackest Night, but I am calling you here this time not to talk about the performance of each of us in this big event, but to talk about the truth hidden in this big event. "As soon as they heard Batman talking about this big event, everyone's attention was highly focused. When he mentioned the so-called truth in his words, everyone couldn't help but feel a thump in their hearts. Green Lantern Hal was well prepared. He looked at Flash Barry and his eyes became solemn, "The universe we are in right now, everyone including me, has experienced a reboot. To put it simply, our universe has been rebooted."

As soon as the words came out, everyone, except Hal and Barry, including Superman, also took a breath. Without him, Batman's words were too shocking to people's hearts at this time. Everyone present was not a fool, they all understood this. What does the so-called restart mean? It means that each of their lives is controlled by a higher being, and they are constantly repeating a cycle of life.

"Everyone, calm down, things are not what you think. In our opinion, it is more like the response mechanism of our universe. Under certain circumstances, everything will be reset to zero and start again. In the process of constant repetition, Find a way forward that can move forward without restarting." Seeing that everyone seemed to be shocked, Hal and Barry, who had recovered some of their memories, quickly offered words of comfort to prevent everyone from being shocked by this so-called fact. A life of doubt.

With Hal and Barry constantly doing psychological construction, everyone in Zhenglian felt at ease. And Batman was also saying there, the so-called truth about restarting the universe, "Just like Hal and Barry said In that way, I understand this restart as the resilience mechanism of our universe. Through repeated restarts, we are constantly correcting some events that we have experienced that have a strong sense of immediacy, just like this Blackest Night event. In fact, We have already experienced it once, and even more. We have also survived the difficulties, but the price we paid has changed."

"So, what is the topic this time, Bruce." Superman, as the leader of the Justice League, sat in the chair. After listening to Batman's report, Superman's super brain also came online and quickly sorted out the lines. , and because of this, he also called Batman by his real name for the first time in a meeting, which shows how much he values ​​this issue.

"The issue is that, as I just said, our universe has been softly restarted, and many people's original life trajectories have been forced to make changes. I don't know if life is good or bad now, but now there is an opportunity. Let The Flash use the Speed ​​Force to restart the entire universe again, there is a great possibility to put everything back on track, but this requires your own opinions. I am the initiator and I give up my vote."

After Batman finished speaking, he handed over the choice to the other members of the Justice League. The members of the Justice League in the watchtower entered a state of confusion because of the sudden news, not knowing what choice to make. They were not The Flash is not Green Lantern. The former is one of the accomplices who caused the incomplete restart of the New 52 universe. The latter was influenced by Dr. Manhattan and regained some of his memories. Most of the members of the Zhenglian are concerned about their experiences in the old 52 universe. Those who have no impression, they don’t know what kind of new life they will experience once they restart.

"Before initiating the vote, I have a question for you, Bruce." Superman on the chair looked at Batman sitting opposite him and asked seriously.

"explain."

"If the restart is successful, besides putting everything back on track, what other changes will there be."

"... Some creatures that exist in this cosmic era will retain the memories of this universe, but we will not and will become the most familiar strangers. Some creatures that were born in this cosmic era will also disappear because of the efforts to correct the chaos. "

After saying this, everyone felt that Superman's breathing was a little heavier. At this moment, looking at Batman's eyes, Superman thought a lot, his own son, and Ke Wen, who had just saved the universe. For some reason, Superman was the first For a moment, I thought of the two of them, and then looked at Batman. Superman suddenly understood what this guy was doing, let out a sigh of relief, and then smiled.

"Then, I choose to give up. It's good like this now. Each of our lives has not changed, and it has even become more energetic due to certain factors. I don't want to do it again, even if it can make us live a better life again. It’s a good life, but it can get worse, can’t it?”

As Superman chose to give up, the members of the Zhenglian also voted for Superman to give up. For a while, the meeting on whether to actively restart the universe simply ended. The members of the meeting also left each other, taking advantage of the opportunity. During this free time, I slowly digested the bomb thrown by Batman. On the watchtower, only Superman and Batman were left sitting on the conference table, looking at each other.

"You knew from the beginning that I would abstain from voting?"

"No, but I believe you will, because you never believe in an uncertain future. You believe in creating the future in your own hands, but others may not. I also need you to take the lead."

"Batman would choose to trust other people?!"

"Batman can't, but Bruce Wayne can. To be honest, I also like the current universe. It is not static. Our spirit and our responsibilities will be taken over by the next generation who are good enough. If possible, I I don’t want this cosmic era to restart.”

"Then let's protect this era, the two of us. By the way, you should have time this time, right?"

Sitting next to Batman, and after responding to Batman, Superman also took out a red box from his belt, opened it, and placed a diamond ring inside.

"ring?"

"Yeah, the ring."

Volume Seven, End.
