Chapter 4046

The main universe Batman stared at him silently. As a DC person who crawls in the darkness, how could he not understand this twisted relationship? It was just that Erik could say it so calmly, which instead revealed a calm madness different from their world.

Or rather, everyone in this universe had such a feeling. They took some very crazy things for granted.

The reason why DC sometimes makes people feel dark and oppressive is that they have too many undercurrents hidden beneath the surface, lurking between the lines, in every move, giving people a lot of room for interpretation, as if hinting, but always feeling like they are overthinking.

This uncertainty adds a lot of mystery to the plot content, carrying a Gothic mystical atmosphere, as if everyone or everything is shrouded in lead-gray and cold blue, like a damp ruin left by the last rain before winter.

And on the Marvel side, the feeling is intense, vibrant, and various contradictions are placed on the surface. Everyone is straightforward; when they are good, they wear the same pair of pants, and when they are not, they wish they could beat each other's dog brains out. Many stories spread the advantages and disadvantages of superheroes flat on the table for readers to savor carefully.

But at the same time, this kind of story doesn't read very relaxingly; instead, it feels very satisfying when reading it for the first time, but thinking about it carefully, it feels like something is wrong somewhere, and finally, one realizes: everything was wrong from the beginning.

This leads to both sides having their own abnormalities. The abnormality of DC's heroes seems more obvious; but the heroes on the Marvel side look more normal, perhaps because the world as a background board is more abnormal.

The main universe Batman could clearly feel that people in the Central Universe took abnormality for granted. Whether it was using the Earth as a bumper car or agreeing to use their own home as a battlefield—this kind of crazy idea that Batman would absolutely never agree to even if he did it a thousand or ten thousand times and put a knife to his neck, didn't have a single person raising an objection here.

For the twisted relationship with his old friend and old rival who had been entangled for many years, Magneto also felt it was taken for granted. He didn't feel pain, nor did he feel pleasure, and it wasn't even numbness. He really felt there was no problem with this.

The main universe Batman really wanted to ask him: is it because the greedy consultation fee is too expensive, so you would rather keep it like this than see a psychologist?

But he also knew that these weren't the point. Now he was more curious about what the four Omega mutants were all about.

"Franklin is the youngest among them." Erik told Batman without reservation, "The father is a scientist, and the mother is his assistant. Then there is Thomas Rogers, the father is Captain America, and the mother is a S. H. I. E. L. D. agent. The Billy brothers are my grandsons, the mother is the Scarlet Witch, and the father is an electronic life form."

"What abilities do they have?"

"It's hard to say," Erik said after thinking for a while, "For ordinary people like you, each of them can be called a god."

"Tell me specifically." The main universe Batman still wouldn't give up.

"Franklin has every superpower you can think of, but I think the strongest is that he can create a universe at any time. The Apokolips domain you rely on now, he could knead seven or eight of them during breakfast. Thomas can directly control dark matter—that's right, it's the dark matter that accounts for the vast majority of the universe's mass. You are a scientist, you should understand the role of this ability better than I do."

"As for the Billy brothers, we haven't quite figured it out yet. It seems one can stimulate emotions, and the other can eliminate emotions. The two of them are the culprits for my lack of sleep; every time they cry, Wanda and I have to stop them immediately, otherwise the whole of New York will cry until tomorrow morning."

Erik let out a long sigh, shook his head, and said: "Now without Wanda, it's very hard for me to watch four little demons at once. Oh, I forgot to say, Wanda is pregnant with another one now, heard it's going to inherit her mother's Scarlet Power. By then we will have five Omega-level mutants."

The main universe Batman saw deep hopelessness on Erik's face. But he actually had no real feeling for what Erik said.

Because these abilities are a bit too strong in the settings, to be precise, they are completely beyond the scope of ordinary people's understanding. Just creating a universe, even in Lucifer's universe construction class, he hadn't heard of it—Lucifer didn't have that ability. Now you tell him a child of a few years old has this ability, and it's at will, without any consumption, is this reasonable?

And dark matter, let's put it this way: the entire universe is composed of dark matter; if one can control dark matter, doesn't that mean one can control everything?

And things like emotions are originally a very abstract concept; no one knows where they come from or where they go, and they are the most powerful evidence of God's existence. What's the difference between being able to control emotions and God?

These abilities are all too ethereal, even more nihilistic than Magneto and Professor X's abilities. This leads to Batman only being able to understand their abilities in theory, and having no way to implement them in reality.

The main universe Batman came this time originally to ask for some intelligence, originally wanting to ask about Professor X, because Charles had caused them significant losses. But now it seems that this isn't the climax of the battle, but just a charge signal.

Just as the main universe Batman was thinking about this problem, he suddenly felt something was wrong—why did the sky seem to have darkened a bit?

The main universe Batman stopped in the corridor, looking at the sky outside through the window. The light source of Apokolips came from the outer shield, and the interior of the entire Apokolips domain wasn't dark, but had always had faint light.

It's just that, I don't know if it was his illusion, he felt this light was slightly dimmed, as if the whole planet was running out of electricity, and it was also a bit like a cloudy day on Earth. Is Gotham's dark cloud still chasing me?

Facts proved he thought too much; this time it wasn't dark clouds, but dark matter.

"Batman, you have to see this." The Martian Manhunter's voice rang in the main universe Batman's mind.

The main universe Batman rushed over there, and then they arrived at the monitoring laboratory of the base's command center. This place was mainly used to monitor changes in the cosmic environment outside Apokolips.

And then the main universe Batman saw that a string of numbers on the central screen was changing rapidly—that was displaying cosmic coordinates.

The main universe Batman couldn't say anything for a moment. He was stunned for a moment, then said: "Did the monitor go wrong again?"

"I'm afraid not this time." The Martian Manhunter stood by the table and said, "Apokolips is moving, and the speed of movement is getting faster and faster."

"Batman!!!" Darkseid's roar rang upstairs. And by the time the main universe Batman looked up, he had already appeared at the door.

"Are you controlling the Apokolips domain to move?" The main universe Batman asked.

"Of course not. I can only control things within the Apokolips domain, but I cannot move the entire domain. Otherwise, why wouldn't I drive Apokolips to chase Earth?"

The main universe Batman was speechless for a moment. He said: "Then what's going on now? Why did Apokolips move suddenly?"

"I'm here to ask you."

The main universe Batman immediately thought of the mutant ability of Captain America's son, Thomas Rogers, which Erik had revealed to him before.

"Are there any changes in the dark matter readings?" He turned and asked.

The Martian Manhunter immediately began to adjust the data, then said: "We didn't specifically monitor dark matter data, but some instruments have this function. Let me see first... oh, sure enough. Dark matter is behaving abnormally. What on earth is going on?"

The main universe Batman didn't answer immediately. He just said: "Is there any way to control it?"

"If we had a way to control it, we wouldn't need the Apokolips domain." The Martian Manhunter said truthfully, "Dark matter accounts for 85% of the total mass of the universe; if we could control dark matter, the entire universe would be our domain."

"Then what if someone else can control it?"

The laboratory was silent. And silence was the best answer—if someone on our opponent's side can control dark matter, it's equivalent to us being enemies with the universe itself. What can be stronger than the universe itself? It's better to go home and wash up and sleep early.

"You mean, someone can control dark matter, and then move Apokolips by manipulating dark matter?" Darkseid asked.

The main universe Batman nodded.

"Unbelievable." Darkseid said.

Although Darkseid is a New God, he is actually also a very powerful scientist—after all, those spaceships on Apokolips didn't appear out of thin air; they were all invented and created by himself. Of course, he also understood what this meant.

The other side is very likely pushing Apokolips out of a certain area by squeezing dark matter. And because this squeezing is continuous, it looks like Apokolips is speeding wildly.

And now the problem is: why does the other side want to do this?

The Apokolips domain is not Earth. How big is Earth, as long as you pay a little attention to the road, you won't hit anything; but for a celestial body of the size of the Apokolips domain, not hitting anything is the difficult part.

This is their own universe, and they are driving such a big thing to rampage in the universe; do they really think the universe's population is too dense, and are preparing to launch a Ragnarok on a universal scale?

Although Darkseid has confidence in the Apokolips domain's shield—most things in the universe shouldn't be able to hit it, and the other side might know this, otherwise they would have stormed it long ago. So things like consuming the shield might also not exist. Then what on earth is this for?

Darkseid turned his head and found the main universe Batman looking at his phone.

"What are you looking at?"

"I'm surfing the internet." The main universe Batman paused and added, "Checking when Captain America in this universe had a child."

"What?"

"Very good, about half a year ago." The main universe Batman took a deep breath, "Do you think a human child of about 6 months old would want his marbles to go anywhere?"

Darkseid appeared somewhat confused.

"According to the current route of action, if we continue to move in a straight line, the final destination should be the capital of the Kree Empire." The Martian Manhunter stared at the screen and said.

"Kree Empire?" The main universe Batman frowned.

"Wait! Detected an unknown object ahead, the volume is very small, but the mass-energy change is very significant... oh no, it's going to hit!"

As soon as the Martian Manhunter finished speaking, the entire Apokolips main planet shook. The main universe Batman saw through the monitoring equipment that the rock-solid Apokolips domain shield, when it hit a tiny, almost negligible black dot, instantly dissipated like powder. The huge kinetic energy of the entire domain was offset, and that small black dot crashed into the shield, falling exactly on top of Apokolips's main planet.

A childish voice rang in everyone's mind: "Little Rogers, you damn bastard! I'll have Aunt Wanda spank your butt!!!"
