The quiet forests and rivers, the prosperous towns and fortresses, the mysterious and broken city in the lake, the desolate wilderness battlefield, and even the glorious city under the golden giant trees were all covered by a layer of snow-like gray nearly one meter deep.
Cover everything.
The "people" who "live normally" in this world turn a blind eye to this thick dust and continue to slowly trek through it, even though it has caused serious obstacles to their movements.
On the plateau overlooking this strange scenery, at the edge of the huge torch at the top, a girl in black robe with her left eye closed is sitting on the back of the strong cow horse "Torrett", quietly watching the torch
The flame becomes more intense as "fuel" is continuously added.
"Dead universes" of different sizes and contents are continuously appearing from mid-air, falling into the torch, being ignited by the flames, and after burning out, the resulting ash is poured onto the ash that is already spread all over, almost being burned.
Completely flooded plain.
Of course, just almost, at the edge of the entire land, the ash that continues to accumulate falls like a waterfall into the dark sea and disappears.
Puff-lu-lu—Torrett, whose face turned gray, snorted.
"[Let them eliminate the influence, but in the end they destroyed all the universes that could be affected...]" The girl in black robe touched its head: "[Is this considered a good job?]"
Puff, Torrett shook his head repeatedly.
"[I don't think it counts, but those who have been affected have indeed been eliminated, so I gave them the power as agreed,]" the black-robed girl's eyes became empty and unfocused, as if she was staring at something very far away:
"[But in this case, other 'influences' will 'rise' to the 'universe that should not be destroyed'. What will they do then?"
Phew, Thoret made a mocking sound.
"[Forget it, after all...huh?]" The girl in black robe was about to turn around and leave, but suddenly her attention was attracted by an unexpected situation.
The surrounding ashes were gone and rolled up.
Those things that were originally in the "dead universe" will be scattered everywhere after being burned. Ashes like snowflakes are flying off the ground from the tree crowns, rooftops, mountain peaks, etc., as if there is a "whirlpool" there.
, is constantly absorbing everything around it.
Under the interested attention of the black-robed girl, the "whirlpool" finally stopped after absorbing the "ash-end" that was about the same size as the regular "death universe" and began to "wither" the "ash-end balls" it had gathered.
"Cut".
Universe, star cluster, river system, galaxy, planet, continent, country, city, street.
From huge, rough, empty, and gray to narrow, delicate, dense, and colorful, the closer to the earth, North America, and Gotham, the richer and more believable the details displayed by the "Gray End Sphere". Ultimately, the sphere is "displayed"
The scene is fixed in a strict prison located on the Linhai Peninsula.
The prison that was supposed to be a high-security prison now seemed like an unmanaged vegetable market, full of vicious prisoners, escaped guards and various dilapidated protective measures.
The person who caused all this was Bain, a strong man who had smashed through the outer wall of the prison and was nearly three meters tall. He was carrying a green liquid tank and looked like a gladiator. What stood in front of him was a gray tight-fitting man who had just airborne.
Batman wearing a suit, black cape and helmet with pointed ears.
"[Hmm.]" The girl in black robe thought for a moment about this still picture, then raised her hand and nodded towards it.
The universe inside the "Grey End Sphere" began to move, and the battle between Bane and Batman also began. Due to the huge difference in size and strength, Batman could only dodge in the face of Bane's frontal attack.
Use various means to contain them.
However, perhaps because this scene comes from "The End of Ashes", the whole performance is completely a mime, without any sound.
After looking at it for more than ten seconds, the girl in black robe raised her hand in boredom, and the displayed picture "fast forwarded", and the ending came in the blink of an eye:
Because of a mistake, Batman was caught by Bane and severely broke his spine with his knee. Even if there was no sound, the abnormal bending angle of his spine made people feel chilled.
At this moment, the clown with green hair and purple suit rushed into the battlefield with a silent scream, threw a bag of green powder to blind Bane's eyes, and then took the opportunity to rescue the exhausted Batman.
"[Oh?]" The girl in black robe waved her hand to stop the fast forward, and looked at the Joker who rescued Batman with interest.
Even though he was paralyzed, Batman stared blankly at the sky. Until he was returned to the Batmobile by the Joker, he didn't even look at him, as if the "super criminal" in front of him didn't exist at all.
During this process, the clown opened and closed his mouth, seemed to say a lot of things, and got agitated several times, but he never received even a word of response from Batman. The pale, always smiling clown's face looked at this moment
It felt like I was crying when I went up.
Finally, when a Robin arrived and drove the Joker away aggressively, Batman glanced at the direction of the Joker in confusion. At the same time, the first line of the mime was projected in text on the "Grey End Sphere"
"The surface is constantly shaking and the color is blood red:
【Tim, who are you talking to?】
"[...]" The girl in black robe was silent, seeming to be thinking about something.
After pausing for a moment, seeing that there was no further change in the picture displayed by the "Gray End Ball", she raised her hand and pulled out the golden cross "Encore" hanging around her neck, and gestured towards it.
At this moment, the entire "Gray End Ball" "came alive", and the gray fog that had always shrouded it dispersed, and the somewhat stiff characters, cities, and natural scenery inside became more real and vivid.
nature.
And most importantly, the whole world has a voice again.
"That Joker, you can't leave him alone anymore, Batman," Robin said fiercely: "Do you know how much damage he has caused to Gotham this month? He also planned Bane's escape from prison.
!”
"It seems that I can't fulfill my duties as Batman for the time being, Tim," Batman said nonchalantly: "While I am recovering from my injuries, Gotham will be left to you temporarily."
"You pretend not to hear anything when it comes to topics related to the Joker, right? I really don't know what your purpose is." Robin fixed Batman angrily, and then started the Batmobile: "Okay, anyway, I will be responsible for the next step.
, I will not spoil him."
After the Batmobile drove away, the focus of the "scene" shifted to the Joker who was watching helplessly on the cliff not far away. He murmured to himself: "Please, please pay attention to me."
"[Wow]." The girl in black robe praised in a calm tone.
Following the words, the "resurrected" "gray universe" quickly rose up, walked towards the other falling "dead universes", and disappeared in the gray sky in an instant.
Puff, Torrett snorted.
"[The idea of 'resurrecting' an entire universe is really interesting,]" the black-robed girl said: "[But the 'Dark Multiverse' itself is missing too much, and just 'resurrecting' key nodes is not enough to reverse the fall of those bright universes—
—】"
Whirring whirring--
The previous "Ashes Rewind" happened again, and various "Ashes Universes" of different shapes began to form in front of the black-robed girl and Torrett. Their number and speed of formation even exceeded that of the falling objects that were falling step by step from the top of the brazier.
and the burning "dead universe".
Puff puff puff puff - the cows and horses snorted repeatedly as if they were choked.
"[Don't they know...]" A little emotion finally appeared on the calm face of the black-robed girl: "[Do I have to handle all the 'resurrections' personally?]"
