The lights in the conference room were bright, and the giant lamp set above the big round table even made people feel a little warm, but at this time, the silence spread with a chill.
"Well, I can't keep up with this course. Who should I contact to make up for it?"
Roy, who still loves to be witty, broke the silence first. He raised one hand and expressed his opinion like a primary school student asking a question.
Oliver beside him quickly interrupted Roy's questioning with his other hand, and whispered: "As long as I can understand it, you don't need to know too much. After the meeting, you can do what the spirit of existence gave you.
Resurrection mission, do you understand?"
"I just want to help. Don't always treat me like a child. Please, Oliver, I'm the same age as Nightwing." Roy rolled his eyes and leaned back on the chair with a tired look.
"Who should I compare with, you and Nightwing?" Thinking of Dick's recent situation, Oliver felt helpless and said sincerely: "He had a big hole in his head with a shotgun, and he lay in bed for half a year, during which time he even
I don’t even know who my soul has changed places with. During the rehabilitation process, I was abducted by a woman and played with. I just came back recently and I look twenty years older, even worse than you."
"Ahem, okay, I'm fine."
Arsenal suppressed a smile and turned his head. Knowing that his best friend was so unlucky, he suddenly felt that Dick was indeed a good brother.
Barry's two fingers imitated a villain walking on the table, a very slow and difficult movement. He took a deep breath: "Deathstroke, please go ahead and explain to us what the definition of 'crisis' is.
When I found you, the dog was just eating and I didn't hear anything useful."
Seeing this heartwarming interaction, Su Ming also felt a lot calmer inside. The Justice League is always so interesting.
He cleared his throat, took out a white porcelain jar from his pocket, took out a bottle of Wilson's green tea, poured it in, took a sip, and gently closed the lid.
"First of all, the multiverse we live in is called the DC main multiverse. It has a dualistic worldview that maintains dynamic balance with polar opposites of power. This should be easy to understand, such as the opposition between heaven and hell, chaos and order, life and
Anti-life opposition, speed force and stasis force opposition, etc.”
“These dualistic oppositions are like taut steel wires that set up the framework of the entire universe, weaving it into a constantly rotating and balanced... hamster cage, regardless of the little mouse.
Whether you run in it or not, the cage keeps spinning around on its own.”
Barry signaled that he wanted to speak. He smiled sheepishly and scratched his head: "We are the hamsters, right?"
"Unfortunately, the vast majority of people are just a speck of dust on a certain hair of a hamster." Deathstroke picked up the cup and skimmed the water with the lid, and took a sip: "You should add the earth plus all human beings as a whole.
Consider it a hamster, and there are many such hamsters.”
The Flash stopped talking, his lower lip was bitten into his mouth, as if he couldn't accept this metaphor.
Is it actually dust? How humble!
Su Ming saw that he would not interrupt anymore, so he put down his cup and continued his speech:
"Since it is a cage, the various concepts and energies that make up the framework are actually connected to each other. If any of you are familiar with Sandman, then you will know the information about the Endless Family and their mutual relationships. From that aspect, you can confirm this,
Concept embodiments have a human-like appearance, and the connection between them is of course more intuitive."
"Getting back to the subject, the energy and matter that make up the 'cage' are conserved. Without the involvement of external forces, a binary system always means one is going down and the other is going up."
“Among these energies that are constantly growing or fading, some are slightly milder in nature and are ‘flexible’ and passive in the dualistic struggle. I call them ‘positive energy’, or ‘power of connection’.”
"Such as the Speed Force, the Emotional Spectrum, the Power of Transcendence, etc. They are also connected to each other at a higher level, connecting us with our past, weaving stories, reminding us that this is an epic passed down from generation to generation, you,
I, she, we may all die, but our story will not die, it will be recorded, somewhere or in someone else's memory."
"In contrast, those who are overbearing in nature and are 'rigid' in the dualistic system, who want to stretch themselves infinitely and make the cage fall apart, I call them 'crisis energy', such as anti-life, chaos magic, power of destruction, etc.
wait."
"These forces cause destruction, they are always on the offensive, they represent greed and plunder."
"The energy of crisis and the power of connection are in opposition. The former wants to break the cage and end the story, while the latter restrains the former and writes the story together, so the hamster cage is spinning. When the Laughing Bat first met me
, he underestimated me, said some things that I shouldn’t have said, and inspired me. He believed that he was a person who should not be bound by stories, so he has been constantly collecting and enhancing crisis energy in order to smash the cage.
, completely became the final winner.”
"To achieve this goal, he needs to do three things. First, he must continue to cause various events and continue to shake the stability of the multiverse. Second, he must ensure that everyone else is dead when the story ends.
First, he becomes the only protagonist and the real Batman; third, he needs a place to stay after jumping out of the cage, so as not to be buried with him."
Having said this, Su Ming paused and drank tea tactically again, in order to give others some time to digest, and at the same time, to allow Batman, who was eavesdropping in the infirmary, to relax a little.
That's right, in addition to the underground dormitory areas, the Hall of Justice is full of surveillance equipment and program backdoors left by Batman. Even if he is currently on the operating table, undergoing the pain of drilling bones without anesthesia, it will still not delay him.
Eavesdrop on the meeting here and think about it.
Barry can probably understand half of what Deathstroke said, because he has memories from before the multiple reboots.
And Oliver can probably understand half of it because he has this level of logic.
Diana and Roy just sat there and frowned. Just by looking at their expressions, you could tell that they definitely didn't understand. But these were not important. This information was meant for Batman and the Joker.
Those two are the ones who can truly understand this 100% and come up with a plan.
If the Laughing Bat wants to win, he must not avoid Batman, so Su Ming simply reveals some information and asks Batman to volunteer as bait.
He attacked Laughter once. Whether he killed the madman is another matter. But from the perspective of Laughter's game, Batman's turn is over and it's his turn.
Therefore, the Laughing Bat will launch an active attack next time, and it is not yet clear who the target will be.
As for whether Batman would have guessed Deathstroke's intention of generously sharing the information? He could definitely guess that he would become a bait, but would he be allowed to do nothing? It was impossible for him to remain indifferent after learning about the 'crisis energy'.
The Joker has exploited Batman's 'fear' mentality time and time again in the past, and it works really well.
The more Batman worries about something, the more he forces himself to face the triggers of this fear. This is a symptom of his paranoia.
