Chapter 2421

~10 min read 1,902 words

The atmosphere in the living room of Wei En Manor was quite scorching.

Batman didn't know how to stop this scorching. His love history was very rich, but his emotional experience was really lacking, and the situation in front of him was too complicated.

Overall, this should be a problem between Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman. No matter which universe, the problems between these three people are not few. But if they come from different universes, the complexity of the matter will more than double.

Clark clearly noticed the unkind gaze of Doomsday Batman, but he didn't know what he had done wrong. He just wanted to find the Batman of his universe, but this one was obviously not.

Clark was looking around for where the Mechanical Batman was, but at this time, the War God Batman and Diana returned. They actually had nothing to do with this grudge, but Batman and Wonder Woman were actually together in this universe, which successfully attracted Clark's attention.

But as soon as Clark paid attention to Batman and Wonder Woman here, Doomsday Batman over there was of course even more unhappy, because it can be imagined that among the three-person friendship group, one man and one woman are together, and another man just learned the news. If he is not expressing dissatisfaction with their relationship, then why pay special attention to it?

Regardless of whether he is dissatisfied with Batman and Wonder Woman being together, or dissatisfied with Wonder Woman and Batman being together, what is there to be dissatisfied with? Doomsday Batman thought, wouldn't it be better for them to be together than to be with you?

Clark was really curious because the Batman and Wonder Woman in his universe didn't spark any sparks, but in his view, this was also quite good, so he wanted to open his mouth to bless, but the death gaze behind him became thicker and thicker, and he had to turn his head to look.

Batman, who was standing on the side, felt that he should do something, otherwise the ceiling of Wei En Manor would be in jeopardy. But what should he do? What kind of person could persuade such a scene?

The answer is a thought storm that is like substance.

This is an extra product that Charles brought when he walked up with a dark face, but it gave all the Batmen present a big jump. They clearly felt that their minds were being read.

"You are always worried about things that haven't happened." Erik said, "What you saw in other universes has caused you to have a complete misunderstanding of me. These judgments are very reckless and rash..."

"But you did do it!" Charles roared at him, "You took us on a detour at that time just so I wouldn't meet Haller! And you shamelessly admitted it!"

"I don't think knowing her is good for you. Our universe doesn't need so many unstable mutants."

"This is the final difference between me and you. Their birth is natural and should not be controlled by you. Otherwise, what is the difference between you and those who discriminate against us and try to oppress us?!"

The two argued to this point and seemed to have nothing to argue about. And from the content of their argument, Batman could infer that after Charles went back from that universe, perhaps he used some methods, or perhaps Professor X told him, in short, he knew the past of Professor X and Magneto.

And for some reason, the Erik in their universe also knew, at least knew about Ms. Haller, that is, David's biological mother.

Batman guessed that it was very likely that Charles told him. He told him about his adventure in another universe, which inevitably involved David's life experience, or perhaps it was just a complaint between friends, such as the interesting story of treating his own son as a classmate when he didn't know David's true identity at first.

As a result, Erik acted very fast. During a mission where he should have met Haller, he took the team on another path, making them miss what was probably the only chance to meet. And this matter didn't know how it was known by Charles.

After being discovered, of course, he couldn't admit it obediently, or perhaps he actually had this purpose, just not to let David be born. But his explanation inevitably raised the argument between the two from a personal emotional problem to a principle problem.

Even looking at Erik's face, Batman could see that he was the kind of person with a very strong desire for control. If he wanted to change the fate of a race, he wouldn't care about the life or death of individuals. His purpose was not to protect mutants, or he thought that letting mutants win the war and override humans was the true protection for them.

And he didn't care how many humans or mutants died on this road. He just wanted to complete his purpose.

For example, this time, he thought David shouldn't be born, so he intervened to change Charles's fate trajectory, making him unable to meet David's mother. And all this was just because he felt that David's birth was unfavorable.

And he held extremely strong self-confidence, thinking that Charles, as his good friend, must be able to understand him. And when Charles, who was still relatively normal, expressed complete incomprehension—you are simply a mental patient—Erik felt aggrieved instead.

Then it was a long argument. The general theme was 'do you love me', 'who do you love more', 'who loves whom a little more'...

Batman thought that if this kind of argument was not stopped, it would eventually lead to a tragedy for one of them, or possibly both.

But obviously, they had already finished the first half before coming here. Now looking at so many Batmen, they couldn't care about 'family shame should not be made public', but started to tell them what was going on.

The process was not beyond Batman's expectation, basically what he imagined. Their views on mutants were also very clear. Charles was closer to a mother—guiding, protecting, but not interfering too much. Erik was closer to a strict father. He thought he had planned a perfect route for mutants. As long as they walked along this route, they could completely get rid of the current predicament, and even become the most powerful group on Earth in one fell swoop.

Batman thought there was no need to persuade them at all, because first of all, both of them were young. They just had plans but didn't put them into practice, and hadn't learned any truth in the setbacks of reality. They just wished they were right, and the argument was metaphysical.

Secondly, even if they had experienced a lot, they were still unswerving. This kind of concept dispute could not be distinguished between right and wrong at all. It could not be said that intimate protection was right and strict supervision was wrong.

As a result, this group of people really analyzed it here.

"If as you said, the awakening of the mutant group is uncontrollable and may cause a great disaster, then perhaps they should be isolated from the ordinary population earlier, find a place to build a country, or think of a way to leave the Earth or something."

Doomsday Batman thought and said, "Standing from the perspective of ordinary people, I think I cannot accept that there are thousands of Kryptonians lurking in the crowd, likely to explode at any time. Since contradictions are bound to arise, you have to prepare early."

"But ordinary people will not allow them to build a country." War God Batman indicated, "The extremists among them want them to be extinct, and even neutral people think they should invent a means to pick them out before the mutant's ability erupts. This is completely a kind of genocide attitude."

"I think it's because there are too many mutants." Diana said, "If there were only a few people like Paradise Island, then occupying a small island and living a life like a paradise would be good, and no one would care about you."

"Paradise Island is because it relies on Mount Olympus..."

Their rational and accurate analysis didn't eliminate the anger of Charles and Erik at all, because what they wanted was not rational analysis, but they were still arguing about personal feelings.

So they had to lead the topic back to the right path. And if they said so, this group of people who considered themselves victims would be full of fire.

"I think deception is hard to accept." Doomsday Batman kept glancing at Clark, making Clark full of confusion, and then he continued, "If you think something is unfavorable to him, you should discuss it with him, instead of acting on your own, not telling him at all afterward, and having no regrets afterward."

Charles nodded one after another, and together with Doomsday Batman, looked at Erik.

Erik snorted directly and said, "You even wanted to end the mission and go home for an ordinary human woman. Is this how you say you have paid your life for the mutant cause?"

"I said it, I am not for Haller, but because..."

"Alright." Now Batman saw it. The two of them were completely talking to each other. Erik felt that Charles was arguing with him for a woman he hadn't even met, which was completely not valuing him, and betrayed the promise between the two.

Charles felt that Erik making decisions for him was completely disrespectful, not considering his feelings, and now he was so justified, simply unreasonable.

How could this kind of problem be argued to a result?

Batman's judgment was quite accurate. They didn't intend to argue anymore, but intended to fight directly.

Erik was already floating, and the magnetic storm was brewing. Charles didn't want to be outdone, standing on the ground, his blue eyes staring at Erik's face. Everyone around felt the tremor of thought.

"What's wrong? Who are these two gentlemen?" Martha asked, holding the railing on the second floor. She was quite understanding of Batman, so she looked directly at Batman and asked, "Your new Robin?"

He wanted to find a Robin bird, not a mountain eagle, Batman thought.

But regarding interpersonal relationships, his brain hadn't moved, so he said directly, "Yes, they are temporary workers I hired to investigate the mastermind."

"And you didn't even prepare a welcome banquet for them."

I really want to stuff them back into the portal now, but this can only be thought in the heart. Batman also thought that leaving them here like this was not very good, and sooner or later it would lead to a fight among the Batmen in this house.

"Now it's late, but I think the Iceberg Lounge should still be open. Perhaps we can go there to discuss the next plan."

"Then you must go too." Martha looked at Green Lantern Batman and said, "You have to watch him so he doesn't come back too late."

Green Lantern Batman looked very unwilling, but he could only walk toward Batman. And Batman, under Martha's death stare, could only choose to walk out the door silently, taking all the unstable factors in this place away. At this moment, no one was more like a lone hero than him.
