Chapter 814 The Conversation Between Dr. Manhattan and the Second Sister of Death
"I feel... that I possess greater power."
Above the crisis on Infinite Earths, the young Superman Supreme looks at his hands and feet in confusion. He cannot sense the presence of the World Builders and Monitors. In order to maintain the stability of the timeline, two sixth-dimensional gods travel through the gaps in the timeline and fight against the Anti-Monitors. They do not reveal themselves to the heroes.
"Damn it... nothing can kill him?"
Superman the Younger heard Superman the Older's roar.
He was being overwhelmed by the counter-surveillance agents, and everything seemed to be over.
Once the Anti-Monitor kills his mentor, he will storm New Earth and annihilate all those who opposed him, venting his thirst for revenge. With the Monitor dead, no one in the entire multiverse can stop the Anti-Monitor's rampage.
But things don't seem to be like that.
Not entirely.
Superman took a deep breath. Although he didn't understand where his extra power came from during the Age of Infinite Crisis, it didn't stop him from using it to...save history.
and many more.
Saving history? Why would I have such a thought?
Ultimately, all of this happening right now...
It just happened, how can this be called history?
Supreme Superman felt something strange in his head. Some bizarre thoughts appeared in his mind, making him vaguely feel that he had suddenly become several times stronger from the moment he arrived, and there seemed to be some hidden dangers he was unaware of.
But he still needs this power to defeat the anti-surveillance agents.
This made him very irritable. The feeling that something was wrong with him, but he didn't know where it was, and that he needed this potentially dangerous power to help him solve his external problems, was not a good feeling at all.
Meanwhile, downstream of the super-time stream.
"I've been manipulated, controlled, and played with all the time. I've told you, I've had enough."
Blood flowed freely.
The Supreme Little Superman's immense bio-force distorted the air around Chen Tao.
And in this world, only Superman himself can so easily break through his own biological boundaries.
He grabbed his own muscle with one hand, and then, as if pinching a piece of tofu, he forcefully tore off a chunk of skin and flesh, every inch of his face twitching from the excruciating pain.
The muscles in the wound were still twitching. Superman squeezed the wound hard with his bare hands, forcibly squeezing the blood back in. He squeezed the wound back into a small piece of muscle, and then threw away the excess parts like garbage.
Then, he hit himself a second time.
"ah!!!"
The Supreme Superman's screams shook the heavens and the earth. He grew a little taller, so he forcefully pulled out his own bone, broke off a piece and threw it away, and then put the broken bone back into his body.
The intense pain caused Supreme Superman's eyes to become bloodshot, and tears of blood streamed down his face.
But he didn't stop.
"Batman!" Hero Day shouted at Chen Tao, who then met the crimson eyes of the Supreme Superman:
"If you dare to influence me, you die. Aaaaaaaah!"
Chen Tao dared not move. To be honest, he had thought about creating a new ape personality at this time, but he was now intimidated by the aura of the Supreme Superman, so this idea remained just an idea.
Superman broke another bone in his body. In the most cruel and violent way, with the ferocity of Superman, he forcibly blocked the Worldmaker's attempt to change him.
If he can survive this ordeal, he and the World Forger will be equal allies; otherwise, he will just be another tool in their hands.
Superman the Supreme would absolutely not allow any of this to happen.
The ruthless villain had no family, no hometown, no world, no companions; he had long since lost everything, except for memories of the past and his last remaining obsession.
Besides these, he had long since lost everything.
It's not just the first Lantern Man who can die for his obsession. Everyone who insists on restoring their own era is a madman. They try to defy objective facts and the tide of history, using their brute force to reverse and shape the world.
For such people, there are only two paths in their world: victory and death.
They did not give up.
Crisis on Infinite Earths.
Superman the Supreme swung his fist, turning the Anti-Monitor into a sea of fire.
The anti-surveillance agent is dead. Killed by Superman Supreme.
He was increasingly sensing the strangeness of this power.
He turned his head and saw the astonished look in his mentor's eyes.
But in any case, he and his mentor succeeded. They stopped the Anti-Monitor from continuing to pursue their companion, killed him completely, and completely changed the landscape of the multiverse, ushering in a new era for the future!
Downstream of the super-time stream.
Click click click click click...
The Supreme Little Superman has finally encountered a problem.
His spine caused him to grow much taller.
The length of the spine in adults is completely different from that in teenagers.
No matter how much the Supreme Superman refuses him, he will always become the person he refuses to become.
No one can refuse to grow up, even if they are a superhuman.
The upstream of the super-time stream.
When Superman the Younger turned around to say something to Superman the Older and Alexander Luthor Jr., he heard Superman the Older's astonished voice.
"Wait, Superman, Alexander, I can't believe this..."
"Superman...I won't die...until you die with me!"
Superman turned his head and saw the Anti-Monitor transformed into a giant fireball.
"Nothing can kill you?" Superman shouted as he charged forward again.
"His body was destroyed, but he managed to come back. He turned into a fireball, a murderous fireball. Now, I only care about one thing: I want to see you destroyed!"
Superman the Younger rushed forward and shattered the fireball with a single punch, taking over the actions of the two original Supermen from Earth.
The fireball formed by the anti-monitor exploded and was blasted back into the sun. After such an attack, even the anti-monitor could not survive.
Then Superman heard Superman's voice:
"Great Krypton! That planet exploded, and the Anti-Monitor is still inside. The shockwave is spreading outwards, destroying everything in its path!"

……
I am Dr. Manhattan.
I come from the Watchers universe. In my world, history is simply history, and existence is simply existence. Everything is so simple, unlike the place I'm in now.
The timeline is changing again and again, and the future is fluctuating in an increasingly surreal way.
In short, after losing Superman, the DC multiverse began an emergency self-rescue effort, with Batman, Dragon, Lamp One, and others taking turns to create new future timelines in ways I never expected, and almost solidifying these futures on the hypertime stream.
I noticed a change in his latest overwrite of the timeline that I found somewhat confusing.
A person who shouldn't have embraced death did so in a new timeline, and then I vaguely sensed that this great sacrifice seemed to have created some kind of energy for the DC multiverse, a kind of...
A force that is the complete opposite of crisis energy.
Crisis resilience.
This incredibly profound symbiotic balance made me think.
However, at that moment, an idea popped into my mind.
In previous timelines, the first Lantern Man never died.
If I try to restore those timelines where the first Genie didn't die, will the first Genie in the main universe be resurrected?
In essence, if I did that, my actions would be tearing history apart—
What will be the consequences of this?
The DC multiverse is very different.
Its spacetime structure is far more complex than the Watchers universe in which I was born.
The existence of the timeline turned the timeline into a steel ruler placed on his table, but I don't know when this steel ruler will be taken under the table or destroyed.
I appeared in every corner of the timeline at the same time, so at this moment, I appeared one second before the first Lantern was about to die.
"...Hahahaha...For...the most glorious mission!!!"
I heard the voice of the first Lantern Man, and I reached out my hand to him.
You are not allowed to die.
This is the will of Dr. Manhattan. I have altered the facts with quantum power, which is like plunging a knife into the heart of the multiverse.
The ancient Greek philosopher Socrates tells us that all actions will bring both joy and cost.
boom!!!
Dr. Manhattan turned his head and saw the gothic girl with an umbrella appear helplessly on the edge of history. He turned his head back.
The usual gentle smile was no longer on her face.
Death is a bit of a worry.
"I'm here to take away Huo Rong."
She said, "That's already a fait accompli."
"Eternal silence."
Dr. Manhattan stated, "The ultimate destination for all life forms in the entire DC multiverse. If I forcibly take him away... how will history unfold?"
Death did not directly answer Dr. Manhattan's question. She said:
"Batman: The Dragon has really given me a lot of trouble; this is all too complicated."
She muttered:
"Or I should just persuade him to become the God of Death from the very beginning."
The girl of death cheered. She tapped her palm with the handle of her umbrella: "That's a great idea!"
In front of Dr. Manhattan, Death spoke with great interest and without any restraint:
"How about this, you stay and help me? I've always had high hopes for you."
(Note: In Chapter 542, the words Death spoke to Chen Tao reappear here.)
She spoke to the void, in that strange, pleading tone. Dr. Manhattan knew that death no longer spoke to him.
As a member of the Infinity family, Death and Doctor Manhattan share the same characteristics:
She does not appear or exist at any point in time, yet she exists at any point in time.
Therefore, although she died in front of Doctor Manhattan at this moment, she also appeared in front of Batman Dragon in another timeline.
Death is speaking to Batman Dragon, and Doctor Manhattan is also present at the same point in time when they are speaking.
The existence of these two deities far surpasses the limits of mortal imagination; for them, time and history are not linear, but coexist simultaneously.
"...I'm thinking of having you as my assistant, what do you think?"
"You could carve out your own niche in the realm of death, like the Black Runner, the Black Death, or the Rotten Black. Let me think... how about all the deaths of Batmen?..."
After a while, the Death Girl pursed her lips. Her conversation with Batman Dragon was over.
"He refused."
Then the girl of death sighed.
"So we really have to have a fight?" he said to Dr. Manhattan. "Scientists are really unlikable."
Clearly, Death Girl's attempt failed. Her plan was to directly introduce Batman's dragon into the realm of death upstream in the timeline, thus resolving the problem at its source and avoiding the current conflict with Doctor Manhattan over the death of the first Lantern.
But Batman Dragon showed no mercy.
"...I've realized this is the moment I've been waiting for my whole life..."
The girl of death is sighing again.
My head hurts.
Batman: Dragon really caused her a lot of trouble.
"I'm taking Lamp One with me," Dr. Manhattan said.
"He is dead forever, you can't."
Dr. Manhattan heard the sound of death.
He opened his arms towards the first Lantern Knight.
He attempted to alter the history before the first Green Lantern, as easily as he took Alan's lamp when he stole the DC multiverse 10 years ago.
But he got nothing.
Dr. Manhattan looked at the scene before him with some confusion.
"The first Lantern Knight, Calamity, fell into eternal silence."
Then Dr. Manhattan read Death's words to him from the future: "No one can disturb his peace. He no longer exists. He will only appear in memories, as a shadow in the dust under the sunlight, and no longer be a person who can be changed."
Dr. Manhattan said.
He repeated what Death would say to him in the future: "Even Dr. Manhattan cannot change the eternal silence, because death... is the embodiment of the rules of the DC multiverse."
Dr. Manhattan shook his head, somewhat regretfully.
But in the end, he did nothing.
What if he insists on trying, even at the cost of fighting to the death, just to retrieve the first Genie?
Dr. Manhattan deduced the timeline of this future as soon as the idea popped into his head.
No, because the original Lantern is no longer something that can be taken back. After eternal silence, it is just a wisp of air—you can take anything, but you can't take air.
So, in the end, it was Dr. Manhattan.
He tacitly approved of all of this.
The future beyond time flow is already a foregone conclusion.
And the ultimate winner...
Are they anti-surveillance agents?
