Alien

Chapter 352 Where did the third generation of dark watchers come from!
Universe No. 4 is also a rather special universe.

As the leader of the fighting force in this universe, Quantum Superman has been paying close attention to major events in the multiverse and has insight into various secret processes, but he will not interfere directly.

Quantum Superman, whose real name is Alan Adam, was originally an Air Force captain with a mortal body. However, when testing a uranium engine, Alan Adam was affected by the explosion. His body was instantly evaporated, but his consciousness survived. After reshaping himself, he became a quantum god.

He is called Quantum Superman, but in fact he has nothing to do with Superman. He is more like a fusion of Captain Atom and Dr. Manhattan.

But he is really strong. When the dark monitor Mandrak tried to destroy the world, the monitor clan called on Quantum Superman for help. Quantum Superman promoted the collision between the main universe Superman and the antimatter Superman, awakening the thinking machine Superman.

Since then, Quantum Superman has been invisible in various major events, observing as quietly as possible and not participating in the progress of the major events themselves.

He also has a special ability that is unknown to the public, which is to communicate with the main monitor.

That’s right, it is the origin of all the monitors in the entire DC Universe, a huge piece of paper floating in the Universe, with an unknown length and width.

The DC world in a narrow sense is a flaw that grows on the main monitor.

"This world is becoming increasingly strange, especially after the Flashpoint incident. Even I can't see clearly anymore."

Quantum Superman rubbed his forehead. Even though He had no need to use such behavior, He still deliberately retained some humane manners to remind himself of his ordinary human origin.

Quantum gods have a common problem, which is that as time goes by, their humanity will gradually disappear and be swallowed up by the absolutely cold and absolutely rational divinity, eventually evolving into a cold thinking machine.

Quantum Superman is no exception, but he is not like Dr. Manhattan and Quantum Bats who go with the flow. From beginning to end, Quantum Superman has been using various means to desperately delay the loss of humanity, even injecting himself with drugs for a long time to weaken his quantum power in order to retain a little more humanity.

Today, there is actually very little humanity left in Quantum Superman.

"The situation in the other world is not the most important thing. At most, it will push this chaotic world into a more unpredictable situation." Quantum Superman recalled his brief conversation with the main monitor and the images observed through the main monitor.

It was a battle between Lucifer and Destiny, but Quantum Superman could not understand the process at all and was shocked by the terrifying strength of these two people.

It is normal for Lucifer to be extremely powerful, although in the past countless years, apart from the attack on heaven, which even the gods found difficult to interpret the specific details, he has not done many major events that can truly demonstrate his strength. He even formed the Three Giants of Hell with Beelzebub and Azazel.

Quantum Superman knew very well that these two guys were totally incapable of competing with Lucifer.

But the fact that Destiny, who had just entered this world, could display such terrifying strength was enough to surprise Quantum Superman, who had extremely indifferent emotions.

It's really unbelievable.

"If fate is so powerful, then Death, as the second in command of the Endless Family, is very powerful now. What level will he reach in the future... No, there is no need for a future. Death had just passed through the Wall of Origin and entered the Omniverse, and he attracted Lucifer. This already shows that Death is special."

Quantum Superman was thinking and judging the Endless Family's position - in the confrontation between the two camps of God and the Great Darkness, which side would they fall on? It was not clear at the moment.

"I've never seen you think for so long. This is unusual." Another quantum god appeared next to Quantum Superman, and Dr. Manhattan appeared.

Quantum Superman glanced at Him and said, "I thought you had gone to the omnipotent universe on the other side."

"I tried, but failed. A god of my level will be closely guarded by the opposing creator god." Dr. Manhattan looked down at Universe 4, looking at the familiar figures in this universe, and sized them up with his head tilted.

Universe 4 can almost be seen as a replica of the Watchers Universe, but the Watchers Universe is not as thoroughly integrated into the DC world as the Vertigo Universe led by the Infinity Family. Dr. Manhattan is very sure of this.

But many people in Universe No. 4 do have shadows of the Watchers Universe. For example, isn’t Quantum Superman a replica of Dr. Manhattan?

"During this time, I have been searching for the truth of this universe, trying to gain insight into the truth of the omnipotent universe and explore the real reason why a similar world appeared, but I found nothing." Dr. Manhattan fell into deep thought, "It's like there is an insurmountable barrier blocking me and cutting off my vision."

Quantum Superman said: "Of course you can't see through it. After all, you are just a multiverse god like me. Exhausting all your power is enough to cause a big stir in the world inside the wall, but in the omnipotent universe, it is nothing. Unless you duplicate yourself at all costs and use hundreds or thousands of yourself to travel through different multiverses, you may be able to make some discoveries."

"But I can't leave the world inside the wall, at least not until the Wall of Origin is broken." Dr. Manhattan looked at the intersection again, staring at a large group of gods from other worlds headed by Annihilation, and then looked away.

There is no way. Although the rules of the world are not exactly the same, the existence called Annihilation is indeed too cruel. It is the absolute opposite of all things, tangible and intangible. Dr. Manhattan is completely no match for it.

"Why don't you leave? There is nothing left in Universe 4 that is worth your nostalgia. Your humanity is almost gone. With your unique communication ability, it shouldn't be a problem to contact the gods outside the wall and pull you out." Dr. Manhattan looked at Him, "Then, if you want to find my hometown, you may be able to find it."

"I can't find it. It's just like you and those watchers. Once you enter the wall, the rules inside the wall will be modified and you will be permanently branded with the mark of this world. It's not easy to wash away this mark and leave this world. It's a fate that is difficult to escape... a fate that includes you and me."

The two quantum gods were communicating coldly, exchanging massive amounts of information all the time.

"Either break down the Wall of Origin and connect to the omnipotent universe, or wait for the complete fusion of the main universe and the alien world. When the new universe is born, follow the many almost crazy gods and rush over to enter another omnipotent universe." Quantum Superman said coldly.

"Does this count as a change of fate? Getting rid of the leader of the Endless Family?"

"No, all your and my cognition and understanding are all within fate." Quantum Superman said, "That's why I pay close attention to the direction of fate. A conflict has broken out between Him and Lucifer, and there is no possibility of victory for the time being. Maybe He will lose in the end. If fate fails, we will all be affected."

"Where's Lucifer?"

"He is the son of God. All his actions are essentially from God and have nothing to do with fate."

At this moment, Dr. Manhattan felt that he understood: "With a more powerful god as the backer, can we ignore the omnipresent fate?" Quantum Superman said no more. Things related to God and the great darkness were even more beyond His understanding.

After a moment's silence, the two quantum gods made a discovery at the same time and turned their heads to look in a certain direction.

"The Watchers could no longer hold out under the attacks of countless aliens."

"I feel the breath of darkness."

The two of them communicated with each other, one sentence at a time, watching with curiosity.

Among them, Quantum Superman was already prepared for his fate: "I didn't expect things to be so bad. The Monitor Clan has become even more unbearable."

This dark aura that suddenly emerged from the Watcher clan was different from the distortion and deformity represented by Barbatos. It carried a smell of corruption and decay.

Anyone who has ever felt this scent will never forget it, and Quantum Superman is even more familiar with this unique smell.

"The last time Thinking Machine Superman was activated was for the first time, it was to deal with this guy, the first corrupted Dark Watcher." said Quantum Superman.

On the battlefield, countless Watchers controlled their warships and were submerged one after another in the endless tide of aliens. The aftermath of the explosions was the last thing they could leave behind.

But not every observer is willing to die in this way. When death is certain, there will always be a very small number of individuals who break through the shackles of their thoughts, think of and choose a path that they should not have chosen.

That is to be a Mandrak!
That’s right, Mandrak the Dark Watcher, just like Satan in the Marvel world, is a title of an identity, not a specific title of an individual!

The worldview of the world inside the wall is generally that a big ball contains a small ball. In the multiverse, what wraps around countless universes is a high-dimensional energy called "blood domain". Every universe is immersed in the blood domain, which is similar to the super vortex in the Marvel multiverse.

The Monitor Clan mainly relies on absorbing blood energy to obtain high-density high-level energy to maintain their own existence and drive a large number of high-energy-consuming high-tech weapons.

But there will always be exceptions. If there are individual monitors whose thoughts are quietly alienated and they absorb the corrupt part of the blood domain, they will degenerate and gradually become the dark monitor Mandrak.

The first generation of Mandrak was killed by the thinking machine Superman.

The second generation Mandrak was beaten to death in the Final Crisis by the Superman Legion composed of Supermen from 52 universes, the Green Lantern Corps, and the Angel Corps.

The second generation Mandrak issued a curse before his death, declaring that he would only be defeated in battle but would never die, and would be resurrected in the near future.

Now, at a time when the Watcher Clan is in crisis, the third generation of Mandrak is about to be born.

"The Dark Watchers are getting worse with each generation. Even if the third generation of Dark Watchers is born, it will be of no use." Duva looked at the corrupt power emerging from the alien tide and shook his head.

In the past, one Dark Watcher would be enough to keep him focused, but now? It was enough for him to devote some of his attention to solving the problem.

The Dark Watcher born in such an environment is at most a multiverse god. It is impossible for him to be as powerful as the first generation of Mandrak and compete with the fully functioning Thinking Machine Superman.

One monitor after another died tragically. When a slender figure that seemed to have no skin but only exposed blood-red muscles emerged, it instantly attracted the attention of all beings.

"What is that?" The Main Universe Superman lowered his head and thought for a while, "Could it be Mandrak?!"

The restart of the Flashpoint event does not mean that all past timelines will be cut off out of thin air and everyone's memory will be wiped out.

The residents of the multiverse, including Superman of the main universe, all have their own memories of growing up.

The Thinking Machine Superman also showed a momentary delay, and looked up to scan the third generation of Mandrak: "The evil god who corrupted the world should be destroyed..."

This huge machine began to make logical judgments. Should it use the limited energy to destroy Loki, the god of stories, or Mandrak, the dark watcher? This is really a difficult decision.

“Damn it, damn it! Why would those despicable monitors degenerate into Mandrak at this time?!” The Anti-Monitor cursed!
In fact, there are serious differences among the monitors about their own positioning. Many monitors believe that the monitors who have entered the wall have essentially become parasites of the world inside the wall, sucking blood energy to survive, which is fundamentally different from the monitors outside the wall.

And those very few monitors who think that the monitors are parasites are often the ones most likely to become Mandrak.

"In order to survive the alien wave, you have to become Mandrak? But if you become Mandrak, your brain will be corroded by the corrupt information, which is also suicide! The key is when the thinking machine Superman is present..."

The observer was caught off guard; this scene was completely beyond his expectations.

The World Forger once again launched an attack on Dua without saying a word. His increasingly ugly expression meant that He also knew the seriousness of the matter.

"The Watchers were supposed to be our helpers, but now they have become our biggest burden. We must end this battle as soon as possible before Thinking Machine Superman abandons the God of Stories!" roared the World Forger.

Otherwise there is no point in fighting any further, it's a mess, every guy present here should either run away quickly or wait to slowly become an alien!
The remaining monitors were also extremely shocked. They controlled the warships' heavy firepower to clear the way and fled in all directions.

"Impossible. After the demise of the second generation of Mandrak, we thoroughly cleaned up the internal affairs and erased all information about corruption! If there was really an observer who was corrupted into Mandrak, he should have been corrupted long ago. Why did he have to be corrupted at this time?"

"Something is wrong, it must be wrong, I must have missed something!"
