Chapter 917 Haha, the Anti-Imprisonment Demon King is back again!
Chapter 917 Haha, I, the Anti-Imprisonment Demon King, am back! The Laughing Bat is stirring up trouble.
This is the darkest corner of the DC multiverse. The Bat Who Laughs lurks here. He is like a piece of trash or a boil in the DC multiverse, constantly spreading his unique malice throughout the multiverse, stirring up situations with his intelligence, and we know that he will always come back, no matter how or what form he takes.
As the maniac himself said, he was a concept, not a person.
(Note: There is indeed an official character like the Female Laughing Man in the DC multiverse, even in female form.)
"Batman Dragon and the World Forger have begun to fight back, but you should know that even the Anti-Monitor at its peak is no match for the Mother of the Multiverse."
Speaking beside the maniacal laughter was the malevolent noble, a bizarre creature that was a minion of the Void Hand, whose status was similar to that of the Three Brothers of the Six Dimensions to Papetua.
Despite being repeatedly betrayed by the Bat Who Laughs, the Malicious Noble is not a normal being. He is wholeheartedly devoted to the Void Hand, and therefore, this powerful and bizarre being must work for the benefit of the Void Hand. When the Void Hand determines that cooperating with the Bat Who Laughs will allow it to seize greater benefits, the Malicious Noble will never have any free will.
Of course, the promising future promised by the Batman Who Laughs is nothing more than a pie in the sky, but the Void Hand has long been blocked from the DC multiverse by the Miracle Machine. More than anyone else, it needs an opportunity, a chance that will allow it to reach into the DC multiverse.
And so the Laughing Bat once again joined forces with the Evil Power.
"I remember you once told me that our plan was to weaken the Multiverse Mother and her offspring by killing each other, thereby weakening the external defenses of the entire DC multiverse. But if the Multiverse Mother could quickly regain even a small amount of her power, even if it was just borrowing a little bit of power through the Hypertime Stream, and..."
Yes, that's right. The essence of time-travel is lending. It's not just you who can do it; Papetua can too.
Her ability to create this false timeline in which she achieved complete victory, and her attempt to solidify this timeline within the reality of the hyper-timestream, is essentially a borrowing strategy of shooting the arrow before drawing the target.
Since they've already borrowed some power, they might as well borrow as much as possible. In the current timeline, Perpetua did exactly the same thing that Batman Dragon did when he created the Outer Path timeline, setting himself up as the ruler who conquered the entire DC multiverse.
The evil nobleman paused, then said, "...and after borrowing power, act decisively before the Anti-Monitor completely breaks free from the upstream of the hypertime stream. I see no chance of victory for the Anti-Monitor."
If Papetua wins so easily, she will definitely shut down the entire DC multiverse. In that case, the Void Hand, blocked outside the DC multiverse, will end up with nothing after all its hard work. This is definitely not the result that the evil nobles would allow.
When faced with questions from the wicked and powerful about the current situation, the Bat Who Laughs responded with his classic quote...
"Everything is going according to plan."
The Bat Who Laughs spoke: “My dear friend, if you know anything about the Mother of the Multiverse, you should know that our beloved Papetua, the greatest mother of the multiverse, can accumulate crisis energy from people’s fear and suffering, thereby altering reality. If we… I mean, to put it more generally, our Mother of the Multiverse can draw power from destruction and suffering, and she doesn’t seem to need to exert as much effort to acquire crisis energy as her offspring.”
"What exactly are you trying to say? If this is a story, then this is all awful."
Upon hearing the words of the malevolent nobleman, the Bat of Laughter felt a strange sensation spread through his body in an instant—a bizarre sense of control that invaded his mind from an unknown source.
When the Flash's villain, the gorilla Grodd, uses his telepathic abilities on the Flash, a semi-transparent, giant, roaring gorilla shadow always appears behind Barry's head. This shadow can only be sensed and seen by the Flash, and only the gorilla Grodd's telepathic abilities can manifest in such a wondrous way.
At that moment, the Bat Who Laughs felt a similar effect to that of the gorilla Grud, as if a giant skeleton was suddenly roaring behind his head, giving him a clear instruction not to say any more nonsense.
This seems to be some kind of power of the evil elite, directly interfering with reality and twisting thinking, as if the Bat of Laughter is not a living person, but a toy that can be driven by commands.
Of course, the Batman Who Laughs was not so easily controlled by such power; he gave the Batman Who Laughs a little warning.
But the problem is...
The maniac was not afraid. On the contrary, the evil nobles immediately received the circus meal that the maniac returned. The mental pollution included, but was not limited to, all kinds of abstract and bizarre monsters. In front of these abstract freaks, even Superman who attacks enemies with stench, Wonder Woman with two heads, or the Flash who accidentally got stuck together due to a speed force error and turned into a centipede, were just minor matters in the midst of the bizarre.
"Ugh!" The wicked nobleman was almost vomiting from the hysterical laughter, especially when he saw Jason Todd or Tim Drake being turned into...
vomit!
"How dare you treat my Tibo like this!"
The evil nobleman uttered these words uncontrollably, and then his face turned somewhat ugly. He realized that the Batman Who Laughs had completely seen through his abilities and had made a corresponding counterattack.
Malicious powerful figures can distort reality into an alternative reality influenced by their pronouncements, which they call "stories."
In the reality that is affected, the powerful with malicious intentions can transform themselves into a kind of reader of reality, changing the "story" through accusations and empty talk, or guiding reality in their own powerful direction by claiming the ending of the "story". The side effect is that at some point they will actually become the reader and observer they are playing, thus distorting their own thoughts.
The Bat Who Laughs realized this weakness, so he struck at its vital point, using his insane thinking and outlandish methods to make the evil nobles who wanted to change reality suffer a backlash.
"How about we skip this section for now?"
The Bat Who Laughs said, "What I mean is that while the Multiverse Mother, Perpetua, can gain power of crisis through the fear and death of all beings, she is not the only one in the entire DC multiverse who can do this."
"The Anti-Monitor? After losing its position as the guardian of the DC multiverse by the antimatter universe, the Anti-Monitor also drew power from destruction by devouring the matter universe," said the Malevolent Noble.
“Yes, that’s right,” said the Bat Who Laughs. “While Perpetual is constantly using the false timelines he creates to generate crisis power in an attempt to freeze the entire timeline, the Anti-Monitor, the potential usurper of his crisis power, is also ready. And on the other hand…”
The Laughing Bat chuckled twice: "Although Papetua created his own false timeline in the reality of the hyper-time stream, it doesn't mean that a new history isn't being created synchronously downstream of the hyper-time stream."
Simply put, in the hyper-timeline reality, the timeline where Batman and Dragon successfully imprisoned Perpetua after a fierce battle is still unfolding.
However, Perpetua was released for a period of time, during which he created a false history on top of the true history and attempted to solidify the false history in order to achieve his own victory. But this does not mean that the original history disappeared. Before Perpetua completely solidified his false history, the original history will always exist, and this is where the Batman Who Laughs can take advantage of.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the timeline, despite knowing that his mother was still watching him with predatory intent, and despite not yet having fully recovered his full power because Supergirl Kara was still alive, the Anti-Monitor still laughed wildly, overjoyed.
This is the first time in so many years that so much power has been released from the upstream of the hypertime stream.
The entire DC multiverse trembled for him, and sang praises for the former king of the DC multiverse, the Anti-Monitor in his prime.
"Next, kill Supergirl Kara."
In an instant, the reality created by Papetua was torn open, and the one who did it was the Anti-Monitor himself. He took a step forward and appeared in front of his mother, throwing a heavy punch at her.
Give her to me!
Papetua stepped back, her hands clenched tightly together. The Supergirl from before the Crisis on Infinite Earths lay with her eyes closed, silent like a corpse.
The battle was temporarily at a stalemate, but this wouldn't last long. The Mother of the Multiverse took a deep breath; she was prepared to end the war quickly.
Then immediately afterward...
She felt the crisis forces that should have been absorbed by her swarm towards his offspring, the anti-monitors, like a deflated balloon.
"What?!"
Perpetua whirled around, her gaze piercing through endless timelines and layers of space to meet the Batman Who Laughs's gaze. Almost simultaneously, the Batman Who Laughs loudly commanded the malevolent noble to block Perpetua's stare—
At the same time, the Anti-Monitor, who suddenly felt his power surging like a tide, laughed wildly and swung his fist at his mother's face!
"Hahahaha, multiverse, I, the Anti-Monitor, am back!!!"
