Dressed as a night owl, I choose to quit [DC]

Chapter 28 The Message of the End of the World

It was about three o'clock in the morning when I woke up.

When the second hand of the wall clock in the living room walked past the Roman numeral 12, I suddenly woke up from the darkness and saw the ancient buildings shrouded in moonlight.Batman was standing in the corridor connected to the living room, talking to someone.I could hear voices coming from that direction intermittently, but I couldn't make out what it was.

This feeling is a bit weird.

No one has ever been allowed to move freely in my house without permission, and I have never fallen asleep in the presence of a stranger I have known for less than a month since the age of eight.

I sat up from the sofa and slowly remembered what happened during the day yesterday - the Joker sent my traitor back, and I executed in front of Batman.Then what?We braved the rain, and it sounded very romantic across half of Gotham.In fact, I was doused by the rain like a drowning dog, and finally climbed over the wall and entered my house.

I think killing people in front of Batman is still too exciting.

The moment the bullet was shot out, it seemed that the brains were boiling together.I can't figure out why, anyway, after that short and intense pleasure, it seems that I have completed a great cause, or I am saying goodbye to something completely, or I used this gun to shoot at unknown things. Take brutal revenge.All in all, the exhaustion in my heart afterwards is deeper than running three laps around Gotham and solving 12 reverse universe special superheroes.

Tired people tend to have weird emotions, so I took Bruce to this horrible place to try to calm him down and bring back some good memories.

……

Definitely, I must have something wrong with my head before bed.I reorganized the cause and effect of the matter in my mind, Joker, Luthor, Syndicate, my quantum bomb and Batman, these parties, including Batman, in fact, no one can clearly say that they stand on the same side. my side.

In other words, I took a vigilante who traveled from the real universe to a seaside villa where only Syndicate members and Alfred had been, when the situation was unknown, and disappeared after suppressing the Gotham riots more than six hours.It wouldn't surprise me now that my enemies surrounded the house just waiting for me to open my eyes before opening fire.

The sense of relaxation and vague embarrassment disappeared, and after waking up, anxiety and sense of crisis surged up again.

Who is Batman calling?

I contacted Alfred and entered the password to unlock the hidden drawer of the cabinet behind the sofa. I took out a gun from it and filled it with bullets and hid it in my waist. I put back the owl mask I took off before going to bed, and then gently Move in the direction of the light.

And just as I leaned my back against the wall, trying to hear the conversation clearly, Batman's voice stopped.

He started walking in my direction.

I held my weapon but didn't draw it, and stood there silently.

When I stepped through the carved door, I held my breath and watched him walk about two meters forward, showing his defenseless back.Immediately afterwards, he noticed that there was no one on the sofa under the moonlight, so he suddenly turned around and said:

"you're awake."

With various thoughts in my mind, I stepped out of the shadows: "The phone number of the main universe?"

"... just a routine contact, the Justice League needs to make sure I'm safe here," Batman said naturally.

"Did anyone come while I was asleep?"

"No."

Is this the truth?Assuming that the Joker and Luthor really joined forces, would they miss such a good opportunity?

I evaluated for a few seconds before hearing Batman ask in turn, "What else do you have planned after daylight?"

"Gotham's private affairs are settled, I'm going to the Syndicate headquarters."

Batman reacted quickly: "Are you going to start taking action against governments and threatening them to hand over power?"

This is too blunt, and it is not appropriate to say such words openly.Although we are now in an inverted universe, the rule of ordinary people has long existed in name only.

I shook my head and changed the subject: "You'd better go back as soon as possible. In two days..."

A bright and dazzling light suddenly came in from the unobstructed window of the villa. Before I finished speaking, I closed my mouth and leaned forward without hesitation, then rolled and hid in front of the sofa.

As the saying goes, what should come will always come, but I felt more at ease. Out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of Batman's movements similar to mine. The two of us leaned on a sofa, a bit like a bird in the animal world that immediately puts on protective colors when encountering a natural enemy.

The white light that shines into the room is too bright, much better than the lighting facilities that come with this old house.I gesture to Batman through the light: Guess it's the Syndicate or the Joker?

Or actually they are the same thing.

The result was not what I expected.

The blinding light comes from a high-backed chair with a pitch-black main body.It has intricate lines and signs on it, and white light is emitted from between these lines.Sitting on the chair was a stranger in black tights. He just manipulated the flying mount to stop outside the window of the villa. His voice was not loud enough to be heard by us:

"I am Metron, and you can also call me the Observer. Night Owl... and Batman from the main universe, whether you believe it or not, a catastrophe capable of destroying the entire universe is about to come here."

I was slightly taken aback, temporarily not understanding what he meant.For ordinary people who live on the earth and face trivial matters, the end of the world is too far away.At most, I imagined that I would blow up the earth with a nuclear bomb, or that Supermaster suddenly couldn't think about it one day and started to slaughter human beings, but the disaster that destroyed the entire universe...?

I'm not too surprised, however.

This is a comic book world after all, and my immediate boss is an invulnerable Kryptonian.

I may have killed a little bastard yesterday, but today I have to consider the crisis of the survival of the universe.It's kind of funny to think about it—people without strength struggling to get up.It's true of my men who betrayed me, it's true of Gotham's superheroes, and it's true of me.We muddle through, dreaming of life and death, and don't care how we live tomorrow, and finally plunge into the fire that burns human bones.

At least someone can come and let me know before the flames reach my cloak.

The person who claimed to be Metron's tone was calm, and I was a little absent-minded when I heard it.He may have seen that Batman and I had no reaction, and added: "The other members of the Syndicate are outside. I just talked to Speedmaster and others about this and stopped them. But now it seems that Maybe it would be better for you to get together and discuss it?"

I asked him, "Who is it?"

Who was the one who dared to set everything on fire before me?

Metron understood, and replied: "The Anti-Monitor. He has devoured countless universes, and Earth-3 is his next target. I can't stop him, and I'm afraid you can't either."

"However……"

His head turned to me, his eyes were all white, without irises and pupils: "I can't observe your origin and past, Night Owl. You are different from others, and the breaking point may be on you, so I am alone Come and see you."

Then you are probably overthinking.

I said dryly, "I have no idea."

Metron nodded, not disappointed: "In any case, the Anti-Monitor will leave after a while, and you still have a chance to make a decision slowly. I will talk to him in the next few days and try to persuade him to change. The goal...but not much hope."

He glanced at me again, maneuvered the chair, turned around and left without a sound.

Batman and I looked at each other.

Outside came the sound of the siren that Johnny Quick had set off when he crossed the villa's cordon.The Syndicate knows that Earth-3 is going to be destroyed by the Anti-Monitor, and they also know that I have a way to go to the parallel universe without any tools.

The moment the light brought by the Mobius chair disappeared, darkness shrouded Gotham again.The next moment, Batman and I shot at the same time tacitly - toward each other.

Fists and feet made a dull sound, we didn't hold back our hands, and even increased our strength in order to decide the winner before the Syndicate arrived. I think this may be a kind of compensation for the lack of venting from yesterday's trial to now.After a few breaths, the bloody smell wafted in the air, and there was still no extra sound except panting.

Chaoba smashed open the door outside, and Johnny Quick rushed in under his urging.He doesn't have night vision, so when he walks into the living room, he looks for the switch first.A few seconds later, the room was lit up, and the lights were flickering. Johnny Quick scolded: "Can't you send someone to change the light bulb, Ye Xiao? I'm almost blind."

I turned my head and coughed up bloody saliva twice, pressed Batman's head hard and smashed him to the ground, then raised my remaining intact arm and wiped the blood dripping from my nose, Standing up and looking at the syndicate members who appeared in front of the door one after another, he said expressionlessly, "Good morning, everyone."

Chaoba stood in the middle of the doorway with his arms folded.On his right is the Super Queen, who smiled at me softly and with a bit of intimacy and malice.Johnny Quick, Atomic, and Deathstorm huddled against the wall, and the Power Ring huddled behind them.

Everyone is here, except Luther who just joined.

Carl asked me, "What happened to your arm?"

"It's dislocated." I lifted my foot over Batman's body, pushed my forearm up and moved it a few more times, "It seems that you have also heard the news about the Anti-Monitor?"

Superqueen is seeing Batman for the first time.She looked down at the comatose parallel universe vigilante, and said meaningfully: "Yes, but our reaction is obviously not as fast as yours. It seems that you already have a plan, right? Thomas."

"Escaping to a parallel universe is the worst strategy. There is a limited amount of kryptonite in that place." I said indifferently, "But it is indeed necessary to arrange a way out."

Chaoba turned his head, and under his gaze, the power ring reluctantly came over, trying to use the light ring to lift Bruce, who had become a prisoner, into the air.His lantern ring was like a machine gun, swearing endlessly. I ran out of patience, pulled out the Colt revolver that had been pinned to my waist, wiped the magic ring, and fired two shots in the head.

Shenlijie uttered a miserable howl like killing a pig, and was so frightened that he sat down on the ground.His polite chanting of the Lantern Ring was interrupted for a second, and he made a comeback a second later, but with a different object, and began to encourage the Divine Power Ring to kill me directly while greeting my non-existent relatives.

As long as the divine power ring has the courage, he will not become a slave to the power ring like he is now.

Our team lacks the spirit of mutual help and friendship. I threatened God Power Ring in public, but no one else responded at all. Johnny Quick was still laughing at him loudly.The Divine Power Ring seemed to be slowing down for a while, Chao Ba finally said, "What are you doing, Ye Xiao?"

"He is my prey, you are not qualified to touch him." I said with their eyes.

Alfred arrived, intervened between Supermaster and Superqueen, and helped Bruce, who was unconscious, to walk out under my signal.

"You have the code for the quantum bomb," said Louise. "That's not fair, dear."

"When did we talk about fairness?" I followed Alfred, "Syndicate meeting, call Lex. We must find a way to deal with the anti-surveillance, or take my bomb-ask the Lord Will the universe take in a bunch of homeless hapless bastards?"

Following my movements, the Syndicate members turned around one after another.They all breathed a sigh of relief after I spoke, unwinding from the tension of the end of the world.

There is also a saying that when the sky falls, tall people will hold it up.

I have been used to it for many years, and I am the one in charge of things, and I have reason to suspect that Syndicate is the tallest of the dwarves. If I really have to go to the main universe, I will be killed by the Justice League at the beginning.

In the face of Batman, I might be able to get away with it.

Now also for the sake of Batman, I will probably be the first target of Zhenglian.

The author has something to say:

It's an update! !Just in case I’ve been on hold for too long and you guys have forgotten all the previous plots (…), let’s talk about the Joker and Luthor of Earth 3 in the previous article who suspected that Xiao Xiao would always blow up the Earth, so they took the initiative to contact the main universe, Batman I have also contacted, so Zhenglian and the master have been communicating with each other until Mr. Xiao collapsed the traitor's head.

I'm trying to mix the plot of the manga and the plot of the animation together and make a he. Some of you must want to see Mr. Xiao say it doesn't matter, I won't say who (it's actually me).Not knowing Metron and the Anti-Monitor does not affect reading.

The sudden fight between Mr. Xiao and the master had some tacit understanding in it. I haven't written the reason yet, but I think you can guess it.
