American Comics: Multiverse of Madness

Justice Society Headquarters.

Now the leader of the Justice Society, Shi Xia, sat in the center, and beside him, Doctor Fate, Wildcat, Green Lantern, Black Adam, Shazam, Queen of the Amazons, Midnight Doctor, and Flash all sat in their respective seats.

At the front of the crowd, Batman stared at the big screen with a solemn expression and said seriously.

".This is the scene from last night. Robins tracked the demon from Gotham all the way to the West Coast and killed him after he committed the last murder. According to my inspection, this demon is very different from the one we fought before."

Batman did not use a special voice changer. His voice was very light, but his voice was very hoarse. Everyone was used to it. Although they knew that the Batman in front of them was no longer the old Bruce Wayne, no one would underestimate him.

"This should be a scout sent by Darkseid, right?" Shi Xia frowned. In the past month, many demon-like injuries have occurred around the world.

These cases not only give the heroes of the Justice Association a headache, but also cause great panic in society. All countries have prepared for large-scale wars. The United Nations has also issued a written report to the Justice Association, hoping that they can investigate a suitable result as soon as possible.

Among the people present now, there is only one person who has really fought with Darkseid, that is Batman, and he ended up in a miserable defeat at that time. If it weren't for Zhang Ye's appearance, I'm afraid his universe would be completely destroyed, and this is why everyone feels troubled.

"I personally think that this is not a scout sent by Darkseid."

Batman shook his head slightly, his eyes full of doubts.

"Isn't it sent by Darkseid? The technology of biological weapons such as demons should only be possessed by Apokolips. Who else can it be if not him?" Black Adam couldn't help asking.

Batman shook his head. "You don't understand what I mean. The substance in this demon's body is very strange. It doesn't seem to come from our world, so I can't determine the true origin of this guy."

"The substance is very strange, how do you say it?" Doctor Fate asked.

"That's not a substance that should exist in reality. At least there is no corresponding data in the reality I have been in. I have experienced three different universes, my own universe, the wasteland, and here, but no data about this substance has been produced. However, I seem to have heard of this thing somewhere." Batman touched his chin and fell into deep thought.

"This should not be strange. After all, Darkseid belongs to the New God of the Fourth World. It should not be a rare thing to create special substances there." Flash said casually.

In response, Batman's face was still extremely serious.

"No, I have been in contact with the Fourth World, but I can't say for sure. Maybe I need more time to investigate these things. I always have a bad feeling."

The meeting ended, and Batman returned to the Batcave with a lot of questions in his mind.

Originally thought that he would hear some information from other heroes at the meeting that could help him solve the secret, but the fact is that those guys can't help at all.

Almost everyone pointed the finger at Darkseid. During this period, the preparations for war between Apokolips and Earth have reached a tense moment, as if a huge battle will break out at any time.

But Batman always felt that something was wrong.

It was true that Darkseid was the biggest threat on Earth, but Batman felt that there was something else above Darkseid, pushing all this behind the scenes.

Walking quickly to the laboratory, Batman looked at the demon-like corpse brought back by Robin. At this time, the demon-like corpse had been dissected into various parts, and even the skin and flesh tissues were well divided and put into various jars.

"No."

Putting several test reports on the table in front of him, Batman frowned deeply.

"This is definitely not a product of Apokolips."

Just as he was concentrating on thinking about the demon-like things, there was a sound of wheels turning behind him.

Hearing the movement, Batman knew who was coming without turning back. He continued his work and muttered. "It's so late, don't you plan to have a good rest?"

"I'm old and I don't sleep enough."

The man smiled.

Hearing this, Batman's expression did not change, and he slowly turned around. "Bruce, your body has not recovered yet, you should rest well."

The person who came to the laboratory at this moment was none other than the old Batman of the Flashpoint Universe No. 1, but now he can no longer stand up and can only use a wheelchair.

Old Bruce Wayne drove in with a cup of coffee and handed it to Batman.

"You should know that this kind of words will not persuade me. After all, we are very similar, aren't we?"

"I am different from you."

Taking the coffee, Batman took a sip and replied in a flat tone.

Old Bruce Wayne did not care about the other party's cold tone. They were all at that age, and he knew very well what he looked like when he was young, so he directly changed the subject.

"I have read the minutes of today's meeting. Do you suspect that this demon was not sent by Darkseid, and there is someone else behind the scenes?"

"I have studied the technology of Apokolips, and I have also learned about biological weapons such as demonoids, but this one is different from all the demonoids I have seen before. The material on its body is more like a substance that is difficult to observe. Elements." Batman said directly without hiding it.

Old Bruce Wayne pondered, and instead of denying Batman's suspicions, he put forward his own guesses. "Is it possible that it has been transformed twice?"

"That's what I'm testing," Batman continued, looking at Bruce Wayne Sr. "I know what you want to say, but this is completely different from Krypton's bioengineering. I have seen the Destruction Sun-like demons. These are two completely different creations. Rather than saying that it was re-transformed, I doubt it. It’s been reshaped by some kind of energy.”

"You mean 'pollution'?"

Old Bruce Wayne blinked.

After a pause, he explained again.

"Don't look at me like that. Zhang Yi has talked to me about the troubles he encountered before, and the pervasive pollution is the biggest trouble he has always faced."

"But pollution will only affect the rationality of living things and will not cause any special changes to the body. Unless this thing has invaded my brain and changed my cognition, otherwise, this situation will not happen. , and the most important thing is that I have 'seen' something similar before." Batman said.

"Where have you seen it?" Old Bruce Wayne asked.

"That's the problem." Batman sighed. "I forgot."

After the words fell, the laboratory fell into an eerie silence.

Although they are both Batmans from different universes, they both have sufficient confidence in their own abilities.

It's definitely not unusual for Batman to 'forget' something.

After an unknown amount of time, old Bruce Wayne spoke and broke the silence. "Have you mentioned this to anyone else?"

"Except for the Justice Society, no one," Batman replied.

"Then I think maybe you should consult Pietro and Carla. They have followed Zhang Yi for such a long time and they should have seen similar things." After thinking about it, Bruce Wayne Sr. said.

When he heard this, Batman was slightly stunned. After a while, he nodded silently. "I will."

At this moment, a purple portal appeared out of thin air.

Sensing the emergence of the portal, both Batmans shifted their gazes.

The next moment, Zhang Yi's figure slowly walked out of the portal.

"I haven't been able to contact you for a while. Aren't you in a hurry to leave the wasteland?" Seeing the person coming, old Bruce Wayne breathed a sigh of relief and smiled lightly.

"Don't mention it. This time it was a bit troublesome. Even I spent a lot of effort." Zhang Yi spread his hands and shook his head in distress.

At this time, Batman was looking at the two people behind Zhang Yi. They were two men in white uniforms.

"Won't you introduce me?"

In response, Zhang Yi nodded slightly, turned to the two people behind him and said. "It's time to introduce them. These two are Batman, who I mentioned to you before. As for you, you should introduce yourself."

After saying that, one of the older men smiled, and then he took two steps forward and stretched out his hand towards Batman.

"Hello, Batman, I have heard of you for a long time."

Batman didn't like this kind of social interaction, but looking at the other person's smile, he didn't say much and just slowly raised his arm.

Just when their hands were about to hold together——

Batman suddenly felt something and jumped out with a sudden backflip.

The next moment, the man's outstretched hand was slashed down with a knife. There was a loud bang, and the entire Batcave shook at this moment.

Soon enough, the man followed the trend with another flying kick, straight towards Batman who was retreating. Batman's heart was alarmed, and he forcibly twisted his body in mid-air, which was extremely dangerous. dodged the blow.

But this was already the limit. The corners of the man's mouth were raised, his bloodthirsty eyes were staring at Batman's body, and he raised his hand to finish off the Batman in front of him.

Suddenly, a soundtrack popped out of Batman's belt.

Instantly, rapid high-frequency noise burst out.

Sizzle! ! !

The terrifying sound shattered all the surrounding glass in the blink of an eye. The two men in white clothes also covered their ears at this moment and showed painful expressions.

Taking this opportunity, Batman quickly came to old Bruce Wayne and pressed the switch on the wheelchair.

"No!"

Old Bruce Wayne's eyes narrowed, but he was too late to stop it.

The sonic tunnel on the wheelchair opened suddenly, swallowing his body directly, and the last picture in his eyes was only Batman's resolute face.
