Chapter 662 Hey, I have a plan! Barbatos vs. Parallax Demon Hal
Shh...don't make a sound.
The World Forger, disguised as a taciturn being, gestured for the clown dragon to be quiet as it hovered in the air. The terrified expression on the clown dragon's face immediately froze on the spot.
They flew past the World Forger with blank smiles on their faces, then landed not far away. The smiles that had been welded onto their faces turned into a kind of bewilderment.
The World Forger lightly flicked his silent cloak and moved through the World Forge as if it were empty.
Barbatos has already left, and even his henchmen have been sent to the Zero Hour timeline. The current world furnace is in a state of vulnerability, especially for its former owner.
One after another, the clown dragons discovered the arrival of the World Forger. They crawled in fear, only to become bewildered again in an instant.
They ignored the Forger and wandered among the embers of the furnace flames. As the World Forger silently crossed a rock under the blazing canopy of the furnace, he saw his mutilated, enormous corpse lying on a stone bed cut open by Barbatos, surrounded by countless dried souls—remnants of the universe, which Barbatos had devoured and carelessly discarded beside his table.
The main course, which he had been munching on for a long time but had never been able to finish, now lay there quietly, waiting for the world's creator.
The World Founder looked over his own broken body, his missing head, his ripped-out body, and his still intact limbs.
He climbed up to where his neck used to be.
The World Forger is truly dead. Barbatos did kill him, but he's not quite dead yet; once this matter is finished, he can die completely.
He stood on the neck of his own corpse, raising his hand high. There was a reason why he didn't do some things while he was alive, but waited until after he was dead—he had to make his death flawless, and if he finished everything beforehand…
The image of that bald, blue-haired figure flashed through the World Maker's mind. He had witnessed firsthand how that figure manipulated the Flash to create the Flashpoint event, thereby stealing ten years' worth of resources from the entire multiverse. Before Doctor Manhattan's arrival, the entire multiverse had never encountered such a powerful outsider.
Fortunately, this overly powerful outsider will leave the multiverse before the World Builder's plan officially begins. The World Builder will no longer need to consider him as a variable, but for now, while Dr. Manhattan is still here, it's best for him to avoid arousing Dr. Manhattan's interest.
If this madman uses them as "interesting experimental subjects," then the world-builders will be completely unable to do what they want to do.
The last time we saw such a crazy scientist in the multiverse was Karona, the one who created the 666 sector massacre, triggered the Green Lantern Wars event, and piloted the seven-colored lanterns like Gundams.
Both being blue beings, Dr. Manhattan's madness is more rational than his cowardice. This is not cowardice, but a necessary concession by the World Builder after realizing that the other party is essentially a mad scientist.
"So now..."
The World Forger, cloaked in the skin of a tacit observer, reached out into the void, and a giant hammer with a pointed end appeared in his palm.
He swung the giant hammer as lightly as a feather, gently tapping the exposed spine of the corpse: "What a fine meal! We might as well..."
"Let's add a little poison to this main course."
……
……
……
The Speed Force plane.
This place is a dimension brimming with energy, and the source of the superpowers of all Speed Force users.
This is the time when the "Rebirth of the DC Universe" is about to take place in the time-travel series.
Wally West, also known as White Wally, who was trapped in the Speed Force before Flashpoint, escaped from the Speed Force and desperately tried to awaken others' memories of him. In the end, the Flash, Barry Allen, responded to him, which allowed everyone to regain their memories before Flashpoint. The New 52 ended, and the rebirth of the DC Universe began.
I am Dr. Manhattan, and I am captivated by the mysterious self-healing methods of the trans-time flow of the entire multiverse.
I'm pretty sure that before today, Wally West escaped the Speed Force on his own and then broke into the main universe to activate Barry Allen's memories.
But today, just now.
Dr. Manhattan stared at the rewritten history and fell into deep thought.
I can't understand it.
It's really incomprehensible.
History has been altered; Wallywest did not tear open the trans-time stream by its own power, but because of the war between Barbatos and Parallax Morhal.
Buzz!
Above the hyper-time flow, a huge hole was torn open in the entire Speed Force plane. The time rift cut through the Speed Force plane like a knife, and this cut landed right on the "Starting line".
This is where all Speed Force users appear when they enter the Speed Force plane. The entire Speed Force plane is like a clock face. Running clockwise along the "starting line" will take you to the future, while running counterclockwise will take you back to the past.
However, besides that, because the starting line has the characteristics of both a start and a finish line, it is also a place where the lost speed force members repeatedly wander around.
Barry Allen, who was once lost in the Speed Force and was eventually resurrected in The Flash Rebirth, was also trapped here. Of course, Wally West, who was about to trigger the DC Universe Rebirth event, was also trapped here.
With Barbatos and Parallax Morhal engaged in a fierce battle, Wally no longer needed to rely on his own abilities to escape the time-travel loop.
Dr. Manhattan watched from the shadows as Wally ran desperately, disappearing in a flash of yellow lightning before the Speed Force could repair itself.
He then immediately checked the history of the DC universe after its rebirth and found that nothing had changed.
There are no incorrect timelines, no bugs, not a single one.
"The hypertime flow couldn't stop their battle, so it could only try to embed this battle into the entire history of the hypertime flow, thereby ensuring its own integrity and coherence..."
Dr. Manhattan understood.
The time-traveling system futilely tries to mend this broken history, then crumbles, like a deeply wounded girl weeping.
She could no longer deal with the less significant impacts; she could only try her best to deal with the ones that were deadly.
For example, the cataclysmic time rift that Hal created using entropy would have a devastating impact on the main universe or any parallel universe if it appeared there.
Either the entire universe is wiped out, or only a few humans remain, or we kick the main universe in the back—the worst-case scenario is that the current history of the Hypertime Stream has no way to go back to. Either the Justice League of the main universe shatters Hal's time rift, or everyone in the entire Hypertime Stream is doomed.
Either way, it would have a devastating impact on the timeline. But the hypertime flow caused this rift to appear in the Speed Force dimension, so it's fine. Wally is going to escape anyway; is there any difference between him escaping on his own and Parallax Morhal helping him escape? No.
But no matter how hard they try to make up for it, if the battle between Hal and Barbatos continues, the speed at which the Hypertime Stream repairs will never be able to keep up with the speed at which they destroy. There will eventually come a moment when it will be too late to repair. What will the Hypertime Stream do then?
Dr. Manhattan became curious. He wanted to know the limits of the self-repair mechanism of time travel.
After experiencing the disasters of him taking away ten years of history, which severely damaged the Time Stream, and Batman's Dragon stabbing him in the heart with a steel knife, almost wiping out the entire Green Lantern Corps, the Time Stream is once again facing new chaos and crisis.
How will the time-traveling system prevent the collapse of the entire multiverse's history this time?
I really want to know! I'm so excited!
Dr. Manhattan was thinking this, while below, Barbatos was almost numb.
Just moments ago, he was engaged in a fierce battle with Hal without any regard for anything else, when suddenly the reality downstream blurred for a moment.
He sensed it for a moment, and seven or eight bizarre timelines suddenly appeared downstream. Some were about Barbatos being beaten to his knees by Hal and forced to become his mount; some were about Batman's dragon devouring Barbatos and becoming the new demon king of the Dark Multiverse; some were about the Anti-Monitor dragon rebelling against the heavens and riding on Barbatos's head, acting like a tyrant; and the most bizarre one was about Barbatos being turned into a genie by the first Genie, working in the future while being whipped.
Although these timelines are all brand new timelines that have just been formed, all of them are still uncured cement, none of the Barbatos in these timelines have a good ending. They are either dogs, mounts, or become artifact spirits. Why is there no good outcome for any of them?
Then Barbatos traced back through the timeline and couldn't understand why it was all a butterfly effect caused by his current battle with Hal. The evil demon king Barbatos's face was terrifyingly gloomy.
So when Hal created another devastating time rift, Barbatos was forced to catch the rift with his bare hands and expend his own energy to repair it.
"Enough!" he roared angrily, stopping Hal's next attack.
"You can't do that! You're ruining the history of the timeline! Don't you have any...?"
Barbatos wanted to talk about morality, although the word sounded somewhat darkly humorous coming from his mouth.
Hal completely ignored him, thinking that once he reset the entire universe and created a perfect world, the entire hyperchronic flow would be rewritten. Even if there were big problems, what did they have to do with the hyperchronic flow after he rewrote it?
"Enough! Stop! Stop it!"
Barbatos was forced to lunge forward, using his own body to block Parallax Morhal's destruction of the entire hypertime stream.
As the great Barbatos did, the disordered and erroneous timelines downstream of the timeline disappeared. They were inherently unstable, and once Barbatos made any changes upstream, they vanished immediately.
But this also shows that time travel is far too fragile and can no longer withstand...
Just as Barbatos was thinking this, a string in his head suddenly snapped. No, that's not right.
He finally realized what the solution to time travel was. So, I, Barbatos, have become your savior in time travel?
But whether Barbatos likes it or not, unless he can watch his time-travel downstream, already reigning supreme in the dark multiverse, with his plan to invade the main universe already more than 80% complete in terms of [reality] being erased, he must save the time-travel from collapse in order to repair the entire multiverse.
Barbatos was forced to go all out, but even so, he still couldn't defeat Hal for the time being; this Parallax Demon Hal was too powerful.
Why? Why did things turn out this way... Barbatos fought on and on, acting as a fixer for the hypertimeline, cursing the Anti-Monitor Dragon and Brainiac in his mind over and over again, but nothing could change the fact that Hal was wreaking havoc on the hypertimeline like a mad dog.
Barbatos felt like he was fighting a gigantic dog in a room full of bottles and jars. He had to subdue the mad dog without letting it smash the fragile bottles and jars to pieces.
Barbatos had never fought such a frustrating battle in his life. Even when he was fighting two against one before, it was on his home turf and he had the whole battle under his control. This was not the case now!
Whenever he was filled with rage and wanted to unleash his full power on Parallax Mohal, he could sense the downstream of the hypertime stream. His timeline would blur, a threat from the hypertime stream that forced him to save the entire multiverse.
This threat was not issued by a specific person, but rather an instinctive self-preservation behavior in a timeless flow without self-awareness; Barbatos's anger could not even be directed at a specific person.
Then, just as things were at a stalemate, Barbatos suddenly received a mental connection from the Black Death Emperor.
"Barbatos, Barbatos, can you hear me?"
When the Black Death Emperor's voice, as sharp as rotten leather, entered Barbatos's mind through the connection, Barbatos was in no mood to pay any attention to him.
"What is it? Tell me quickly! I'm very busy right now!"
"It's no use being busy." He heard the Black Death Emperor's voice, which was no different from his usual voice, but for no reason, it had an extra strange feeling... like a kind of spirituality?
The vitality that belongs to living people.
But Barbatos wasn't in the mood to dwell on it. The Black Death Emperor had sometimes expressed similar feelings before, and Barbatos had gotten somewhat used to it since they met.
If anyone who knows the Black Death Emperor were to see the current Black Death Emperor, they would surely feel that he is different from the past, but Barbatos is not among such people.
He wasn't very familiar with what the Black Death Emperor was like in the past. He had never seen the Black Death Emperor on the darkest night. When he became a little more familiar with the Black Death Emperor, he saw that the other party was sometimes deathly still and sometimes somewhat lively, as if he had two sides, life and death, constantly switching.
"You're helpless against Hal, aren't you?"
Although the Black Death Emperor only said two sentences, Barbatos was already somewhat irritated, that was true, but he didn't want to listen:
"What exactly are you trying to say?"
"I meant to say..."
Then Barbatos heard the Black Death Emperor say:
"I have a plan that can bring your business from darkness to light, and make the trans-time flow safe again from danger."
