Chapter 3620: Injustice Alliance (IX)
Ultimately, Wonder Woman was imprisoned in a room in the base's lower levels that had been reshaped by Hal using Green Lantern energy.
After this was over, everyone in the group was extremely silent.
Batman returned to his room, but this time he did not intend to avoid it. He knew that if he did not stand up, if Superman did something stupid again, their universe would be torn apart by the other party.
The Flash appeared in the room. Batman looked at him. The Flash said, "I see the engines on Brainiac's ship that are used to collect cities are warming up again. It won't be long before the next attack."
"What about the Flash from another universe?"
"I don't know, I didn't see him." The Flash shook his head and said, "Even if he did something, I can't do anything. His speed force is too weird. I don't even dare to touch it."
"Was there anything unusual about him before?" Batman asked.
"You mean the time he caught me?" The Flash thought for a moment, then frowned and said, "I vaguely saw another figure in his speed force. But due to the interference of that black energy, I couldn't see who it was."
"You mean he brought an extra person into our universe?"
"I'm not sure," said the Flash, "but whoever he brought with him, it doesn't seem to make any sense, right? They could just come over openly. There's no need for a sneak attack."
Batman stood there in deep thought. What the Flash said made sense. The gap between their two universes was too big now. The other side was fully armed and in prime condition. Whatever happened could be left on the surface. There was no need to prepare an ambush just to keep a hand.
Let this person come with their positive team, the ending will be the same. Anyway, the local Justice League can't beat them.
But Batman still felt vaguely uneasy.
He went over in his mind what all these people had done after they arrived, and then felt a little regretful - he was indeed too focused on Superman and missed too many of these people's actions. It was too late to watch the surveillance now.
"Try not to show up," Batman instructed. "If anything goes wrong, we can only count on you."
The Flash nodded. He disappeared into the Speed Force again.
Batman opened the door and walked out. When he entered the meeting room, he found that the atmosphere was still silent.
Bruce arrived later than him, but he had a small crystal in his hand and said, "I have cracked the frequency of the energy used by the collectible engine. We just need to use another kind of energy to interfere in a special way during the process of converting the city into collectibles. This bottle is useless to us. We can sneak into the spaceship and steal the blueprints of the spaceship."
"We can all get into the ship, why don't we just take out Brainiac?" asked Green Lantern.
"Did you miss the previous meeting, or are you just not thinking straight?" Bruce was obviously losing his patience. He said, "Didn't we say this a long time ago? We can't handle such a big spaceship. Without the blueprints, if we rashly work in the spaceship and damage the ship's engine or gravity system, what will happen to the Earth?"
After that, he threw the thing onto the table again, crossed his arms and said, "We came here with good intentions to help you, but not only did you kill our people, you also asked questions here and there to stall for time. Is this your universe?!"
At this time, Catwoman came over, winked at Batman, and then said to Bruce: "I'm sorry about Diana. I don't want to make excuses for the murderer, but we have just experienced several catastrophes. Everyone is a little tired and may not be so focused. Don't mind these."
Bruce took several deep breaths, as if he had used up all his willpower to suppress his negative emotions. He said, "I've put the things here, and I've arranged the plan. You can do whatever you want."
After that he left.
Hal picked up the crystal and said, "The green light energy should be able to be used as interference energy. But my suggestion is that I will participate in the final attack. You can sneak into the spaceship and steal the blueprints by yourselves."
"Cyborg and I have to go too," Batman said. "Brainiac is not a human being. He won't leave paper drawings in a room for people to steal. All the information related to the spacecraft is in its system. We need a hacker."
"Then Cyborg comes with me, you stay." Superman looked at him and said.
"I know you don't trust me, and I don't trust you either." Batman said, "If you do anything to the spaceship, the entire spaceship will fall down, and the earth will be doomed. We must go up together, there is no other choice."
Superman thought to himself: Now the Green Lantern in their universe is also on Batman's side. If Green Lantern, Batman and Cyborg go up together, then he will be one against three.
"I think it's better for you to go." Superman looked at Hal and said, "You are more powerful than the Green Lantern in our universe."
What he thought was: although the outsiders were dangerous, at least they were not on the side of Batman. If Batman and his men wanted to attack him, he would probably stop them.
But Batman disagreed. He thought it was very dangerous to bring an outsider on board. The two sides were deadlocked and the meeting ended unhappily.
Everyone else left the meeting room, only Superman and Batman stayed. Superman stared at Batman coldly and said, "What do you want?"
"I know what you want to do." Batman said, "You want to use something in Brainiac to deal with the outsiders and force them to give you the power to go back in time. But this is impossible."
"how do you know?"
"It's not a magic weapon, a formula, or even a specific power. It's more likely a method, a method performed by humans."
"Can't we enforce it?"
"You should know that if it was possible, someone would have already done it." Batman said, "You don't think you rule the earth well, do you?"
Superman's face darkened. But Batman seemed not to notice. He continued, "The reason we can't carry out this method is not because we lack something or some power, but more likely because we lack someone."
"flash?"
"It's not him. If the Flash was alone, he would have gone back in time a long time ago. I think it could be Hale."
Superman frowned. They went to that universe to carry out the mission at a very early time - they arrived just after Zod arrived, so they also witnessed the subsequent Hale invasion and Brainiac invasion.
"You should know that if it's that guy, we can't force him by any means." Batman said, "In other words, we can't catch him at all."
Superman heard something else, and he said, "Now you don't object to going back in time?"
"I'm just telling you that your methods won't work." Batman said calmly, "You can't solve all problems with violence. You should use your brain."
"They won't give up," Batman said. "Believe it or not, I have a hunch that they are planning something. This may not be a good thing for us."
"So you want to deal with them too?"
Superman's reaction was quick. He immediately realized that Batman came out of his room and was willing to talk to him, obviously because he felt dangerous because of these outsiders.
And because of the stupid things that Wonder Woman did, the two sides are now completely irreconcilable. Even if Batman doesn't agree to go back in time, if he doesn't stand with Superman to deal with these people, they will have something to do after defeating Brainiac.
Superman smiled mockingly. He walked to Batman's side, looked at him and said, "Won't you still have to point at me in the end?"
"Now is not the time to talk about this, Clark." Batman shook his head expressionlessly and said, "Whatever you want to do, you have to wait until we have solved all the problems before you can say it."
"how do you want to do it?"
"I will pretend to negotiate with them to keep them stable."
"and then?"
"We can't use force to force them to stay calm and keep our universe safe. We have to get them to sit down and talk. But it takes leverage to get them to sit at the negotiating table."
So that's it. Superman thought to himself: No wonder Batman wants to talk about going back in time.
The current situation is this: they can't beat the other side at all, and have already offended the other side. If they want them to leave after the war instead of starting another war, they have to find a way to talk to them.
But negotiations require bargaining chips. Since they cannot win a direct fight, they have no bargaining chips, and the other side will not negotiate with them.
Batman wanted a bargaining chip, but he couldn't get it himself, so he went to Superman and used the concession of going back in time as a bargaining chip to negotiate with Superman, asking Superman to find a bargaining chip that could make the other party sit down and talk.
Batman knew that if Superman dared to take him down, he must have something to rely on. If he took out that thing, maybe he could calm him down and sit down and talk to them.
If you want him to take out the thing, you must make him understand that it is useless for him to threaten the other party with force. Only by following Batman's plan and negotiating and trading with the other party can time be reversed.
That's why Batman has to talk about Hale - although he doesn't know what the bargaining chip in Superman's hand is, it probably won't be useful to this super Kryptonian.
If the key to rewinding time lies with Hale, then Superman's wishful thinking will definitely fail. It is better to join Batman's plan and use this thing as a bargaining chip to deter the opponent, and there is a certain chance that the opponent will help.
Superman figured it all out. But he was not willing to give in so easily. He said, "Okay, you have a point. But you must make sure that you do everything you can to fight for the opportunity to go back in time..."
But after Batman left, Superman's face turned cold. He knew Batman wouldn't fight for it - he would never agree to go back in time. He would deceive him again.
Superman came to the bottom floor of the base, where Wonder Woman was imprisoned.
There are too few people who are completely on his side now. Most of the Justice League have turned over a new leaf, and the few who are more capable of fighting all listen to Batman.
This makes Batman's promise to him meaningless - because Batman can completely rely on his superiority in force, not fulfill his promise and put him back in prison. Superman will not allow this to happen.
Wonder Woman can be stupid, but at least she can fight, and she stands firmly on her side. To ensure that Batman will fulfill his promise, Superman needs Wonder Woman.
He walked to the door of the room and knocked. The door was opened, but Superman couldn't get in and Wonder Woman couldn't get out. They could only talk through a layer of green light energy.
"I believe you are innocent." Superman said, suppressing his nausea. "The Green Lantern who locked you up here will come on the spaceship with us. I will find an opportunity to injure him, and you can escape from here when the Green Lantern's energy is weak. I will see you when I come back."
Wonder Woman was so moved that tears welled up in her eyes. She nodded vigorously and said, "Don't worry, Clark. I will always help you."
Hal, who was playing with the crystal in his room, suddenly showed a mysterious smile.
