Chapter 756 Turning Around Suddenly, the Scenery Remains the Same
Chen Tao is finding it harder to make a move now. You see, he made a move once, then twice, and the other party didn't hold it against him.
Even if you confirm your thoughts and ideas, they are still nothing more than doubts.
Is it really reasonable to continue attacking someone simply because of suspicion?
Even if it's unreasonable, I still want to...
Chen Tao took a deep breath.
The situation has escalated now; the opponent is immune to even the power of the fifth dimension! How is that even possible?!
Even if it were Doomsday cells, it wouldn't be this outrageous, not even in the main universe's Doomsday.
Yes, the Doomsday of the main universe does have the ability to be immune, but this immunity is at most generated after being beaten for a long time or even near death. But did I bind you with the power of the fifth dimension for more than 10 seconds just now?
You've become immune?
Chen Tao felt a deep sense of crisis. Of course, besides the fifth-dimensional divine power, he had many other means to deal with the opponent, but he had decided to take immediate action to prevent the situation from turning into a situation where the Calabash Brothers were trying to save their grandfather.
He took a deep breath, and then...
"Wait! Wait! Don't rush, let's have an open and honest talk, please."
Hero Day was so frightened that he waved his hands frantically, and a helpless smile appeared on his face, just like that of Clark Kent, the Superman from the main universe, as if he were some kind of superhero who had been misunderstood.
Although... well, is there any possibility that he really is?
Chen Tao banished that thought from his mind once again.
"Let's sort out your current thinking a bit. You think I'm a fake created by the World Forger just to deceive you? No, of course not. I can let you examine my memories!"
Hero Day said, "Isn't that enough to convince you? Whatever my thoughts are, they are all laid bare before you. I know my resurrection is illogical, but please believe that my willpower is still under my control."
Chen Tao paused for a moment.
"Are you really willing?"
"If this can ease our tense relationship."
Heroes' Day said.
Chen Tao did as instructed, and the atmosphere between them eased somewhat. Chen Tao had to admit that the personality shaped by the other party's memories was indeed a true hero, and Doomsday had not lied to him on this point.
"Alright, now aren't you going to tell me your plan?"
Chen Tao still didn't speak.
He wasn't particularly fond of the other person...
"Let me guess, you're planning to replace Flashpoint with the New 52 main universe timeline that came from the UK, right? A smart decision."
Heroes' Day said.
Then he saw Chen Tao glaring at him: "Don't look at me like that. I'll join your plan. I'm already the controller of the Rotten Black, but I can hand over this position to Bane. We can use this timeline to rewrite the Batman Who Laughs."
Chen Tao was still looking at him. The Hero's Day celebration finally came to a stop. He was also looking at Chen Tao.
"Whether I'm a traitor or not, you need an ally now, don't you? You can be wary of me, but I can help you now..."
"Oh, right, there's one more thing."
He said, "I guess you want to combine several natural energies, right? I can help you with that; I'm doing it right now."
Yes, the authority of several natural magical energies can be split. For example, in a certain parallel universe, the Crimson of All Beings, which governs animals, was split into the White of the Clouds, which governs flying animals, and the Blue of the Ocean, which governs aquatic animals, while the original Crimson of All Beings only retained the authority over terrestrial creatures.
For example, within the Green of All Things, the Council of Flowers and the Council of Trees have already caused a de facto split. During the Dark Night Death Metal event, the multiverse Papetua also actively caused an internal split within the Green of All Things, causing the authority of the flowers to be separated from the Green of All Things.
Since it can be split... it should also be able to be combined.
"What?" Bain frowned. "How can you do that? What are you trying to do? What's the point?"
He turned his head and saw the expression on Chen Tao's face, then immediately realized something: "Wait... Bat, this is what you wanted to do too. And you didn't let me know at all."
Chen Tao was slightly surprised.
Even Bane couldn't see the intention behind what he was trying to do, but Hero Day did.
Being able to deduce Chen Tao's plans and next steps is not a rare trait; both Lex Luthor and Hal Jordan, the Green Lantern in Chen Tao's universe, can do it.
Although this only applies when Chen Tao's mind is clear, he doesn't think that much when he's in a silly state.
But neither Luther nor Hal possessed the immense power of Hero Day, which could evolve infinitely.
Wisdom is very important, but just as important is strength. Only by combining the two can one change the situation and take control of the overall picture. Neither is dispensable.
Not only that:
"I have now successfully fused these natural energies using my own Doomsday cells."
Heroes' Day said.
He has already done everything for Chen Tao; he has taken over all the tasks that Chen Tao was supposed to do.
He was one step ahead of Chen Tao. Chen Tao realized that there was a reason why Heroes' Day appeared here. He and Chen Tao thought of the same thing, and even their meeting today was probably part of Heroes' Day's plan.
Chen Tao...
Chen Tao was somewhat at a loss for words.
He's strong, really strong.
Whether it's wisdom or strength.
Hero Hinata demonstrated this.
……
……
……
Chen Tao's universe.
Gotham City.
Wayne Manor.
Afternoon, 4:16 PM.
Alfred sat quietly on a bench in the yard, the evening breeze ruffling his hair.
Alfred was the only person in the vast manor at that moment.
The original Robin, now known as the superhero Nightwing, Dick Grayson, is very busy in Broodhaven, but he visits him every week.
He had just picked up the third Robin Tim Drake from school and taken him home.
Tim has gradually let go of his life as Robin, and he no longer clamors to go out and punish evil, which is good.
Tim has truly returned to a peaceful life, which is exactly what Alfred and Bruce have always wanted.
The second Robin Jason has been out of contact for a long time, and he doesn't like others knowing what he's doing.
Last Christmas, Alfred received a Christmas gift from him, but Alfred had to realize that it was prepared in advance and not sent on Christmas Day, after all, he was a veteran agent.
Jason seems busy too... He's living his own life... Alfred hopes he's alright.
While Gordon Sr. is still serving as police chief, Batgirl Barbara is now Gotham's primary protector. She has come of age, and as a member of the Bat-Family from the same era as the original Robin, Nightwing, Barbara has matured into a fully-fledged hero.
Of course, the Penguin and Mr. Freeze have also reformed. Without the Joker, and with the help of the Justice League, Gotham City has been steadily improving.
Damian Wayne has become the leader of the Teen Titans. Alfred once suggested that he return to Wayne Manor to live, but Damian himself refused.
Alfred visits Damian every two weeks, but often can't find him.
Damian's mother, Talia, was always doing something and didn't take care of her children.
However, one time when Alfred came to visit Damian, he bumped into Rashy Augu, which startled old Alfred so much that he almost pulled out the short-barreled shotgun hidden in his lower back.
The two men faced off for two seconds, then Damian shouted from upstairs. Immediately afterward, the Ninja Master glanced at the old butler and flew away like bats with his gang.
Alfred never saw him again.
Well, aside from these little hiccups in my peaceful life, everything is pretty good, except...
Aside from his Bruce not coming back for a long time.
But Alfred knew it didn't matter; his Bruce was busy with very complicated things that he couldn't understand anymore, and now he didn't even need Lucius's help.
Some time ago, he visited Lucius, who was still the chief CEO of Wayne Enterprises, but he still didn't know any firsthand information about Bruce.
So he went to see Lex Luthor, the leader of the Justice League, who took time out of his busy schedule to meet with him, giving him a much better understanding of Bruce's current situation.
However, the entire Justice League soon went on a business trip, leaving the Justice League Hall to be run by the Rogues. Can you imagine entering the Justice League Hall and seeing a Rogue magician showing off his severed hand in flying shoes, bragging to the visitors?
Of all the rogue gang, only the youngest magician would have so much free time.
Oh, by the way, the scoundrels are still keen on robbing banks, even though it's no different from getting paid for it for them.
Some people think they are still criminals and that the president's pardon was a mistake, but the robbed bank and the people watching the event didn't seem to have any objections. If you really want to say something, legally it's just cosplaying as a robbery.
This is a rare opportunity for the Rogues Gang to build team spirit and relax, and it's also an important activity for them to maintain their relationships.
After joining the Justice League, the Rogues have effectively severed ties with their past criminal organization nature.
Captain Cold was overwhelmed with work, arguing with Amanda Waller every day in the office. What Luthor could do well was too difficult for Captain Cold, who only had a high school diploma.
Especially when his street thug temper flares up and he's about to act recklessly, his answer to most questions is usually, "I'm going to kill them all!!!"
Colonel Steve Trevor had entered politics, transitioning from a military officer to a senator and serving as White House Chief of Staff. This position is essentially the gatekeeper of the White House, and thanks to his mediation, things ultimately didn't go too wrong.
Fortunately, Two-Face from Gotham City, or rather, Harvey Five-Face now, sometimes comes to help. As a former star prosecutor, handling matters related to the Justice League isn't too difficult for him.
Although he carries a five-sided die with him and sometimes does things that are not normal and meaningless, such as slapping himself, he is not suitable to be the spokesperson for the Justice League. So usually, after writing the speech, Captain Cold's sister, Golden Glide, will read it.
Of course, the Golden Glider couldn't understand what Harvey had written at all; the wording was so formal and sophisticated that a girl from the streets wouldn't understand it at all.
But all she has to do is look good.
Penguin has gradually abandoned smuggling. Although he still employs many underlings, the taco business has surpassed those illegal and gray-area activities in his overall business.
He's now venturing into real estate. Alfred knows that Oswald is still the same cunning penguin, but when legitimate business is more profitable than illegal activities, why insist on being a legitimate criminal?
Mr. Freeze's wife, Nora, has woken up, and they are now living peacefully together. Mr. Freeze is now even less willing to carry out the tasks Barbara assigns him.
This led to a disagreement between him and Batgirl, and eventually Captain Cold of the Justice League made a trip, ultimately requiring Mr. Freeze to gradually delegate his work to others instead of simply quitting.
Lincoln March of the Court of Owls disappeared suddenly a long time ago. No one knows where he went. He seems to have vanished into thin air. Barbara had spoken with Alfred before, and he was worried that March might cause trouble after discovering that he was not a member of the Wayne family, nor Bruce's younger brother.
But this worry eventually dissipated with March's disappearance. That's how many things are; you never know what will happen tomorrow.
In principle, Alfred was still somewhat worried about the young man, as they had a good relationship. He had once asked Luther to help find him, but nothing came of it.
There's also Poison Ivy, and Harley Quinn who disappeared for a while and then returned...
There are many, many people...
Alfred thought quietly.
His Bruce had been gone for a long time, and he really wanted to talk to him about the changes in Gotham City.
In places Bruce couldn't see, everyone's life was getting better.
But he knew Bruce was busy and he shouldn't bother him.
He is still in good health.
He still has plenty of time. Although Bruce didn't retire as he had hoped, there's nothing that can be done about it, right?
Alfred wouldn't ask Bruce to come back; that would be too selfish and unrealistic.
Just like always, he simply prepared dinner and got ready for Bruce's return.
So now he should get to work on something.
He rose from the bench at Wayne Manor and walked toward the house.
It was a bit cold, and he hunched his neck; he wasn't as resistant to the cold as he used to be when he was younger.
Then he suddenly paused for a moment.
He saw a figure appear in front of him, wearing a somewhat embarrassed and guilty smile.
"Hey, Alfred?"
His little Bruce is back.
It's temporary, a short break, and won't last long.
But it's very good, extremely good.
The best part.
