American Comics: Multiverse of Madness

"Welcome, Batman."

Zhang Yi raised the corner of his mouth and stared closely at the restrained Batman opposite.

"Or I can call you Bruce Wayne."

Batman looked at the other person with cold eyes. He did not answer, but silently observed the other person's figure and paid attention to the surrounding scene with his peripheral vision.

In addition to the mountains of corpses, Batman also saw a man in a red suit hanging against the wall. The suit was in pieces and his body was full of scars. His arms were It was bent at a weird angle and seemed to have been broken.

Batman didn't know the identity of the man in red, but he recognized the older man with a mustache standing next to the man in red. This man should be the 'father' mentioned by the young man behind him.

And it was these two people who attacked the Batcave at that time.

"It is said that the most dangerous place is the safest place. Your friends would never have thought that we did not take you to other places, but left you in Gotham, where you personally built Inside Arkham Asylum."

Zhang Yi clasped his index fingers and said with a smile.

"Oh no, it was established by another person, the older, older Bat. Originally, I wanted to get rid of that guy, but I have to admit, I underestimated you. I didn't expect your reaction to be like this. So fast."

"I didn't expect you to be so good at seeking death," Batman said calmly.

"What do you mean?" Zhang Yi was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion.

Batman stared at the other person with mocking eyes, as if he were looking at a clown. "I really wanted to say this when you used the face of 'Zhang Yi'. You even dared to call yourself 'Zhang Yi'. How should I evaluate you."

Hearing this, 'Zhang Yi's' expression changed obviously, but he quickly hid it and instead smiled and shook his head.

"Thanks to you being the best detective in the world, I thought you would know me very well, but in fact, you don't seem to know me very well. How can you be sure that the Zhang Yi you met before is the real Zhang Yi Woolen cloth?"

Batman's eyes narrowed, and a hint of uneasiness arose in his mind, but he quickly reacted. Looking at the chair where the other person was sitting, Batman returned to his calm state again.

"Your words will not have any impact on me. On the contrary, you must have been affected by this chair. Not everyone can use the Möbius Chair."

‘Zhang Yi’ looked Batman up and down, and drove the Mobius Chair closer to Batman.

"Yes, you have also sat on the Möbius Chair, so that's why I spared your life."

"I should have thought earlier that the demonoid under special matter and the demonoid infected by special energy is the spy you sent out on your own initiative. I have always felt that the energy in that thing is very familiar - the antimatter universe."

Batman had roughly guessed the other party's plan at this moment, but what he didn't expect was that the other party would be so crazy.

When Batman was controlled by Darkseid and sat on this chair, he gained nearly unlimited knowledge, including the reality of the antimatter universe.

At that time, Batman truly felt the terror and oppression of the anti-matter universe. He could not imagine that there was such a weird universe in the world, and that universe was so close to reality.

"I know what you want to do, but you will never succeed no matter what." Batman said in a cold tone.

"Yeah?"

‘Zhang Yi’ was not frightened by Batman’s threat, he just stared at Batman calmly.

"Who else do you think will stop me? Your dear comrades have a bigger crisis to deal with at the moment, and I have found the last piece of the puzzle of this plan."

After saying this, 'Zhang Yi' slowly stretched out his hand, and the next moment, an energy invisible to the naked eye suddenly spread out and spread towards Batman.

Instantly, a low murmur echoed in Batman's ears. His pupils shrank, and he immediately knew the source of this energy. Batman knew very well that this was the sound of the Anti-Life Equation.

Loneliness, despair, rejection, fear, ridicule, condemnation, misunderstanding, guilt, shame, failure, judgment, lies, death.

A dark side of personality and life quickly rose up, and the voice that sounded like the whisper of an ancient god invaded Batman's brain in the blink of an eye. Even though he had tried his best to resist the invasion of this energy, he still couldn't. With little success.

"You, how could you"

Batman didn't understand why the fake Zhang Yi in front of him could control such terrifying energy.

"Don't you understand?" 'Zhang Yi' sneered and looked directly at Batman. "The secret of this earth, the key to the collapse of this universe. This is not a normal universe in the first place. The anti-life equation engraved on the surface of this planet is the key to everything."

The energy that corrodes the will spreads, and all beings who hear this equation will lose themselves and become the user's puppet, driven at will.

"This power is wonderful, isn't it? Although it is not perfect, this power that is enough to destroy a universe is enough to redefine the world."

A little lava starlight emanated from around ‘Zhang Ye’. The light was very faint, but the energy contained in it was extraordinary. Anyone who saw this light would feel that their sanity was slowly draining away, and gradually fell into extreme madness.

“Don’t you miss the feeling of being controlled by Darkseid, the feeling of having your will ruled by others? Give up resistance, Batman, you are an indispensable part of my plan.”

“Uh”

Batman gritted his teeth and closed his eyes to keep his broken sanity stable, but the equations that invaded everywhere hit his mind like a storm.

This was a past he didn’t want to recall in his life, and it was also a scene he didn’t want to experience again in his life.

"Your knowledge will help me open the door to the antimatter universe. I need your brain, Batman."

"Uh. Ah."

Batman felt a splitting headache at this moment. He wanted to cover his head, but his hands were tightly bound and there was no way to break free. The veins on his arms were bulging, and every cell in his body was resisting the erosion of the anti-life equation.

But under the opponent's continuous bombardment, Batman's brain and reason became precarious at this time.

Finally, after the anti-life equation reached a threshold, with the sound of a heartstring breaking, Batman's brain was instantly blank, the whole person stiffened for a while, and his head drooped weakly.

Seeing this scene, the hideous smile on Zhang Ye's face became even stronger. He turned his head slightly and looked at the man with a mustache beside him.

"Nolan, wake them up."

Hearing the voice, the man called Nolan nodded slightly, and then walked to the man in red who was hanging in the air, stretched out his hand and directly broke the other's bones.

"Ahhhhh!!!"

The man in red was awakened by the severe pain in an instant. He opened his mouth and wailed, but the next moment, Nolan slapped him on the mouth.

With a muffled sound, the man in red's mouth was cracked, and his teeth fell out one by one with blood, and his screams stopped abruptly.

Afterwards, Nolan came to Batman again. He held Batman's shoulders and squeezed them gently. With his movements, a sound of broken bones sounded immediately, which made people shudder.

Batman also woke up suddenly at this moment, but unlike the man in red, Batman did not make any sound, but looked obediently at 'Zhang Ye' on the Mobius Chair.

Looking at this scene, 'Zhang Ye' finally nodded heavily.

"Finally, even Batman surrendered to me. Marcus, untie his restraints. The next step is the most critical step."

"Okay." The young man behind Batman responded, stretched out his hand and directly tore the rope on Batman.

The restraints on his body were removed, Batman shook and slowly stood up, his eyes were calm, and he was on 'Zhang Ye' from beginning to end.

'Zhang Ye' drove the Mobius Chair to Batman.

"Batman, I need you to open the door to the antimatter universe."

"As you wish, my master."

Batman's face was a little dull, he didn't care about the severe pain in his right arm and shoulder, and slightly shifted his gaze to look at Johnny Quick who was struggling and whimpering.

"My lord, why don't you open the door to the antimatter universe yourself? We have already confirmed that the speed force formed by the Flash's body can be used as a door to connect the two universes." Marcus asked curiously.

"Not everyone has the ability to conquer this chair. Although this chair has given me super-age knowledge that I have never seen before, it has also limited me." 'Zhang Ye' glanced at Marcus next to him and explained calmly.

"Batman is right. This chair is affecting me. It is taking me to a state of extreme rationality and loss of humanity. As long as I resist this chair, I will not be able to distract myself to open the door to antimatter."

While 'Zhang Ye' was explaining all this to Marcus and Nolan, Batman had already started to act. He walked slowly to Johnny Quick, muttering a language that ordinary people could not understand at all.

Strictly speaking, it was not any known language at all, but rather like a song or a melody. Under the guidance of this sound that is extremely difficult to produce with human vocal organs, Johnny Quick's body quickly responded.

Johnny Quick, who was lying on the ground, was trying his best to resist something, but soon, his speed force showed signs of being out of control. Lightning bolts kept emerging from his body, whipping the surrounding walls, making a harsh crackling sound.

Zhang Ye, Nolan and Marcus couldn't help but take a few steps back. They had deeply felt that a force of energy was slowly gathering in front of them.

It was an indescribable strange energy. Even aliens as strong as Nolan and Marcus couldn't help but feel a sense of oppression in their hearts.

Nolan had never felt this level of energy in thousands of years. He frowned slightly, blocked his son Marcus behind him, and stared at Johnny Quick's direction.

On the ground, Johnny Quick's body kept twitching in the lightning. He seemed to want to say something, but his mouth couldn't make any sound, not even a wail.

But from his face, everyone could see that he was under a terrible pressure at the moment, and this pressure was splitting his body from the inside.

Under Batman's whispers, Johnny Quick's speed force was forcibly awakened from the outside and connected to another space.

Johnny Quick stared at his bloodshot eyes, his face full of unwillingness and fear. At this time, he was like a devil from hell. Under the pull of the uncontrolled speed force, his body was instantly lifted into the air by some strange energy.

"It's started"

'Zhang Ye's eyes lit up, and he had already felt that the passage was slowly opening.

And the fact was just as he expected. The speed force tore Johnny Quick's body and a scarlet passage quickly appeared. Countless lightning formed a storm and burst out brilliant light.

The whole Arkham Asylum was changing around the wind and clouds, the building made a dull roar, and the decayed building was groaning in pain.

But 'Zhang Ye' showed a more crazy smile.

He had already felt the coming of that power, and he also felt the terrifying pressure from another world. The energy that was enough to destroy the multiverse was constantly expanding.

"Hahahahahahahaha"

Looking at the open scarlet tunnel, 'Zhang Ye' laughed loudly. He seemed to have seen the scene of the multiverse being destroyed one by one under the influence of the antimatter wave.

"No one, no one can stop this power. This is a great power born from reality and the end of all realities. All life will be truly free under this power"

". Come!"

"Anti-monitor--!!"

With a loud shout from 'Zhang Ye'.

A huge shadow slowly appeared in the scarlet channel, and with it, there appeared an indescribable terrifying momentum. Just looking at the shadow, everyone felt a sense of suffocation.

But looking at 'Zhang Ye', he was in great excitement at this moment. He was so excited that he even stood up directly from the chair.

'Zhang Ye' opened his hands, as if he wanted to hug something, and shouted excitedly.

"Break the cage of eternal reincarnation, break this false reality, all life will fall into true freedom, and welcoming death will be my last gift to them. I have seen our future"

Suddenly, the expression of 'Zhang Ye' froze on his face.

The next moment, the terrifying shadow in the scarlet passage suddenly shrank and turned into a figure less than two meters tall.

Immediately afterwards, a person who looked exactly like 'Zhang Ye' slowly walked out of the passage.

"What future did you see?"

The man asked lightly.
