Chapter 1876

"I don't need ears, I don't need to close my eyes, and I don't need to use a single brain cell to think—it's 100% Schiller's doing!"

In the silver-white space, a young man's voice came. Through the heavy white mist at the edge, only a hazy black figure and two pointed ears could be seen.

Instantly, five heads appeared above the circular tabletop. Bruce, Diana, Clark, Pamela, and Lex stood neatly in the directions of the five sides of the pentagon.

Clark turned his head first, looked at Bruce in the Batman suit, and said: "Why are you wearing this outfit again?"

"I was standing guard upstairs, just closed my eyes to rest for a while, and found I had arrived here." Bruce replied.

"Me too, I was writing a thesis, just got a little sleepy, and arrived here as soon as I opened my eyes." Lex sighed and said: "I hope what he said about time not flowing in the real world is true, otherwise I won't be able to turn in my thesis again."

"It seems everyone is about the same." Diana spread her hands and supported them on the edge of the tabletop: "I was a guide at the Metropolis Art Expo. I took a nap leaning on a chair during lunch break, and when I opened my eyes, I saw the Earth under my feet. I thought I was sleepwalking."

Everyone turned their eyes to Pamela's face. Pamela hugged her arms and said: "Is it strange that I would take a nap? Or should we talk about your previous speculation, Bruce."

Everyone turned their eyes to Bruce's face again. Bruce shook his head and said: "I don't think I need to repeat that sentence, because it's an obvious fact—there is no possibility that this wasn't Schiller causing trouble."

"Then what he said about the destruction of the universe..." Clark frowned, showing a somewhat difficult expression.

"Either he's scaring us, or it's a play on words." Bruce adjusted the Batman cape behind him: "He said the universe is about to be destroyed, but he didn't say how long it would take. Maybe it's billions of billions of years later?"

"And he didn't say how the universe would be destroyed. The universe will always be destroyed. What if it's a natural destruction?"

Everyone felt it made sense after hearing this and nodded. Lex looked down at the pattern on the table. He had just discovered that the pattern on it would light up when he pressed his hand on the tabletop, so he put his hand on it again and said: "Regarding the team leader, I prefer Clark. What about you?"

Clark immediately raised his hand and said: "I support Bruce. The main reason is that I just heard him say that our abilities would be strengthened or weakened. If my superpowers are weakened, at least Bruce is very smart."

Diana thought about it with her finger on her cheek and said: "I also support Bruce. I suspect this is not our original universe. Our superpowers might not work here. Choosing a wise leader is indeed better."

"It's not 'might not,' it's that they don't work at all." Pamela sighed: "I can't feel the existence of the Green. At least my ability to manipulate plants can't be used."

"Alright, it seems you have the majority vote." Lex looked at Bruce and said: "But we have to make a pact. What I'm most worried about is your mental state. If you..."

"Now that Professor Schiller isn't here, his mental state is the best among us." A black shadow darted onto the tabletop. Clark exclaimed: "Little Bruce, why are you here too?"

"Call me Bat-Cat." Bat-Cat flicked his tail, turned around, and jumped nimbly onto Clark's shoulder: "Obviously, the identity of team leader might be very useful in the future, and you can always trust Batman."

"I choose Batman."

The thick fog gathered and dispersed. The same tabletop, the heads around the table became six. Green Arrow looked at Batman, who had a deep and serious face, and said: "I think he will be the best leader for the Super Six."

"I agree too." Green Lantern Hal nodded: "When Apokolips invaded, only Batman could come up with a reasonable plan. I believe in his wisdom."

Superman turned his head and looked at Batman. Batman was still that deep and mysterious look. He wanted to ask what was going on in this world, but he also knew Batman wouldn't tell him, so he could only nod and say: "I have no opinion, I think Batman can lead us."

"Don't you think this is a bit strange?" Wonder Woman frowned: "We just formed the Super Six, and we were all brought to this mysterious world. Could it be that Darkseid was forced into a corner by the Green Lantern Corps and played some conspiracy?"

"It's not Darkseid." Batman said in that deep tone: "He doesn't have the ability."

"Who the murderer is doesn't matter." Batman lowered his eyelids and looked at the pattern on the table: "I propose Superman to be the leader."

Superman was surprised, but Wonder Woman seemed to see Batman's meaning. She nodded and said: "I think so too. You saw the situation just now. There is more than one team of duelists brought here. We are very likely to face them in the future. Then the team leader must appear in the open to interact with other competitors."

"Then the best solution is one in the open and one in the dark. Superman acts as the team leader to deal with other competitors, and Batman plans behind the scenes to regulate everything, just like we dealt with Darkseid. Facts have proven that this is very effective, isn't it?"

Green Lantern and Green Arrow looked at each other, then looked at Aquaman, the last member of the team who hadn't expressed his position. Aquaman thought for a moment and said: "I abstain. You can choose according to your own wishes."

Everyone could understand his meaning. After all, there were six people now. Superman and Batman didn't vote, so there were still four left. If two chose one, it would be a tie. It was better for one to abstain, the remaining three to choose, and then the minority to obey the majority.

"Then who chooses Superman?" Wonder Woman said while raising her hand. Green Lantern hesitated and raised his hand, but Green Arrow shook his head.

"Alright, that's settled." Wonder Woman looked at Green Arrow and said: "I think the responsibilities within the team can also be divided. Green Lantern, Superman, and I will be responsible for external affairs, and you, Batman, and Arthur will be responsible for internal affairs."

Batman put his hand on the tabletop first, and the others followed. Only when he heard that the safe zone would expand in 30 minutes did Batman frown imperceptibly.

"Since there is a safe zone, there must be a danger zone." Batman's words made the others feel cold. Batman withdrew his hand into his cloak and said in a deep voice: "... Prepare for a war meeting!"

In another space, a giant hammer slammed onto the silver-white tabletop. Harley Quinn carried the hammer and said: "So what the hell is going on? Scarecrow, it wouldn't be another one of your poison gas leaks, pulling us all into a hallucination, would it?"

"What does it have to do with me?!" Scarecrow, who was standing opposite in a protective suit, rolled his eyes: "I was testing a new round of fear gas in the lab. Who knew I would start falling as soon as I opened my eyes?"

"Quiet! Quiet! Everyone quiet!!!" Joker slapped the table hard with his hand, then showed a cruel and cold smile: "It seems someone wants to play an interesting game with us. It's really interesting."

"Hehehe, hehe." Riddler laughed with his shoulders hunched. He took out a deck of cards and shook it: "Guess what time it is? Or is this actually 'language'?"

"It's definitely not just us who came here." Two-Face tossed his coin up and down, looking at the table with gloomy eyes: "A lot of people fell down just now. Do you guess Batman came?"

Joker's eyes lit up instantly. He squeezed a laughing sound from between his teeth until he was trembling with excitement, his teeth chattering as he said: "Good, good! It must be an interesting game. It's been a long time since those little birds left Gotham for the sky that there's been such an interesting game!"

"I'm afraid those troublesome guys also came." Harley Quinn blew the hair in front of her forehead with her mouth crooked: "Don't tell me you didn't think of it. That fat penguin full of copper smell and that Hugo with dog shit in his head might have come too. They wouldn't want to play games."

"I won't let them ruin this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity." Joker seemed to have sobered up from his madness again. He stood up straight, stretched his shoulders, adjusted his bow tie, and like a real politician, cleared his throat and said: "Then let's start the election. Who will be the boss?"

"I'm not interested." Scarecrow shook his head: "I just hope the chemical reagent bottles I left in the lab don't evaporate too quickly."

"You're too stupid. Didn't you hear what the person said before? Time in reality doesn't flow?"

"What if he lied to us?"

"Then do you think praying would be useful?"

Scarecrow and Harley Quinn exchanged a few words and were stopped by Joker again. He said seriously: "Everyone be quiet. The election is serious. We have to choose carefully. After all, our opponents are likely more than just Batman."

The pentagon-printed tabletop rotated again. The people around the table changed to another batch. A figure in a red dress spread her hands and said: "So what the hell is going on? I just took a nap, how did I become some kind of duelist?"

"Stop complaining. I just took a nap in the office, and I arrived here as soon as I opened my eyes." The burly man looked at his hands, seemingly adapting to something.

"It wouldn't be the ghosts of that group of Demon Gods again, would it? Wanda, have you heard any wind in the universe lately?" A green-haired woman asked.

"Aren't you interning in the Andromeda Galaxy? Why come to ask me?" Wanda said angrily: "I've been exhausted doing X-Men work staying on Earth lately. I haven't rested for fifteen days!"

"Alright, alright, calm down, ladies. Let's choose the team leader first. I always feel that something will happen if we are late." Cyclops pushed his glasses and said.

Everyone looked down at the quadrilateral on the tabletop. Wanda hesitated and said: "If Jean were here, I would definitely nominate her to be the boss, but she doesn't seem to have come. Then let it be Logan."

"Don't count on me anyway." Polaris Lorna hugged her arms and sighed: "Magneto said I have no leadership ability, Professor X said don't believe him, but I know he thinks so too. Usually, I have no patience."

Wolverine Logan turned to look at Cyclops. Cyclops hesitated and nodded, but Wolverine turned his head back and said: "I'll inevitably have to charge in the front anyway, you do it."

Cyclops didn't commit. His relationship with Wolverine was a bit awkward, and fortunately, Jean wasn't here, otherwise it would be even more awkward.

Everyone discussed it and finally decided that Cyclops would be the team leader, and then they put their hands on the tabletop together.

And obviously, they discussed for the longest time. Almost as soon as the broadcast finished that the safe zone would expand in 30 minutes, a voice resounded in the space again.

"New Earth broadcast. Next, the game rules of Battleworld-New Earth will be read. Please listen carefully to all duelist teams and strictly follow the game rules. Violators will be executed and eliminated."
