"Uh..."

Bruce Wayne stood on the terrace of the Hall of Justice, it was already a deep night in New York, ordinary citizens were enjoying a good sleep and a good dream in the tranquility, and under this peaceful scene, hidden were the sacrifices of heroes who were willing to give everything for the world.

Just now, the heroes of the world have come together again.

Cyber always says that the world of this timeline is weak, he is actually right, before Cyber came to this world, in his civilization, the number of registered superheroes has exceeded 5000, not including those who belong to the hermit in the ancient civilization organization, really counted, in the Cyber universe, the number of superheroes on the side of human civilization is at least 1 or more.

The weakest of them can fight back and forth with opponents in the starry sky, especially under the armed forces of high-speed development of science and technology, this force has stepped onto the cosmic stage.

And in this timeline world, the number of heroes is pitiful... There are only less than 1000, which also reflects the essence of this timeline world, of course, this does not mean that this world is incomplete, it can only be said that this world is specially used for a gambling game, and the world that was improvised is more or less weakened.

But in any case, using these powers against an entire dark multiverse must be the result of no imagination.

However, the word hero represents a kind of sacrifice, there are many things, not that you don't want to do, you can not do it, and for those who need to give their lives and existence to achieve the results, when the vast majority of people are discouraged, there are always some people who will smile and face the difficulties.

These people are the real heroes, regardless of origin, race, culture, they are using their own blood to water the world protected by themselves, nothing more.

And the meaning of sacrifice, people in the mud pit, will always scoff at it, the hero's actions are like a joke in their eyes, they wantonly criticize, speculate on others with the most sinister ideas, but as everyone knows, in the eyes of the world, they are the real joke, the most meaningless existence.

Well, that's a lot... In short, in the face of the terrible reality revealed by the Justice League, even though the heroes of the world have such and such concerns, the vast majority of them still say that they will participate in this battle... The final battle in the Crucible of the World!

Under the weight of survival, union becomes inevitable, and Cyber always says that survival is the real battle, and this sentence is not wrong at all.

"Bruce, what are you thinking?"

A somewhat cold voice sounded behind Batman, and Diana came out of the staircase, with her arms crossed, standing behind Bruce, and she whispered:

"Are you still thinking about that vision?"

"How could I not want to? Diana..."

Bruce turned around, with a wry smile on his face, he touched his arm: "In the labyrinth of the Owl Court, I came into contact with Amber Gold, and in the battle to protect Gotham, I was infected with the mysterious Bacchus Gold, in order to help me recover my memory, you made the ultimate machine out of the rare metal promethium, and just this morning, I was careless, and came into contact with N metal..."

"It only takes five metals to fuse together, and the door in my body will open, unleashing Barbatos sealed in darkness, completely extinguishing the entire universe, and I will become a sinner through the ages, and most importantly, this world that I have been trying to protect, I swear, the world that happened to me, will never appear again... Probably it will be destroyed by my own hands. ”

There was a hint of hesitation in Batman's eyes, he put his hands on the railing, staring at the silent night: "Maybe I should kill myself now, as long as I die, Barbatos's plan will also come to naught..."

"But the door is still there, Bruce!"

Diana stepped forward and gently hugged Batman from behind, she whispered: "We have lost Arthur and Victor, if you die, this war will only be more difficult, at least we know now, as long as we protect you, we will only deal with those 5 crazy bats... That's a good thing, Bruce. ”

"Thanks to the special bat gold you took out, this special material makes the casting of the Hell Bat Armor go smoothly, it is already in the final stages of debugging, believe me, this is our deepest love for you, don't give up hope... Together, we will win!"

"So, why do you always trust me so much?"

Bruce broke free of Diana's embrace slightly, he took a step back, hiding his body in the darkness, he looked at the beautiful Amazon daughter in front of him, and he whispered:

"Actually, sometimes, I feel that I don't deserve your trust..."

"Because of the things you've done in the past, Bruce, you've spent the first half of your life proving that you're trustworthy, that's all. ”

Diana stepped forward, she bravely looked directly at Bruce Wayne, and she said with some sadness:

"You still can't let go of Rachel's death, can you? You like this, I feel a little desperate, Bruce..."

"Don't talk about that now, okay? Diana..."

Bruce's expression was a little hesitant, and he whispered: "I've always refused other people to enter my heart because I'm afraid of losing again, Diana, I'm not disgusted with you, it's just, I'm really not ready, maybe... This battle would be a good breaking point, no matter how it ends... I'll give you an explanation, trust me... Give me a moment, okay?"

The historical process of each timeline is different, and the characters in each timeline have their own stories, for example, in this timeline, if nothing else, Batman and Wonder Woman will eventually come together, but now the biggest accident has happened, Cyber is sitting on the top of a lonely mountain, and the snowflakes are flying all over him, like a sculpture carved by ice.

Everything that happened in New York, the actions of the heroes, all this could not be hidden from him, the crises hidden in this battle, those weaknesses, he knew everything, but he could not appear at this time, he needed an opportunity, he needed a pathfinder to help him figure out the final arrangement of Barbatos in the cosmic furnace.

And these heroes who are united are very suitable.

As for the unsealing of Barbatos, which Batman has always wanted to avoid, Cyber also has an understanding in his heart about this, which cannot be stopped... Barbatos will inevitably appear, he has planted too many traps in this world made by him and Gao Tianzun, and even if he stops it now, the ultimate fate cannot be changed.

Rather than continue to drag on, it's better to solve it all at once...

And now, the only question is, how strong will this destined Barbatos be?

You see, in the end of any trick, in fact, it still has to rely on strength to speak, and a conspiracy without the support of power, just like the former hydra, will only end up in nothingness.

"Buzz"

A door from Earth to the cosmic furnace was torn open with the support of Green Lantern, the Flash ran fast, using the speed force to maintain the operation of the portal, and the heavily armed heroes rode the spaceship provided by Batman, quickly crossed the sea of stars from the synchronous orbit of the earth, and reached the extreme center of the universe.

The faint fireball of the supergiant was suspended in the starry sky, and the heroes who saw it for the first time couldn't help but let out an amazement.

This is the cosmic crucible, the legendary singularity before the expansion of the universe, the furnace at work here forged the first life in the universe, so that the era of prosperous life has arrived, it is also a complex symbol, the moment the cosmic crucible is extinguished, the energy that burns the stars that supply the entire universe will cease to exist, the universe will not die immediately, it will fall to the other side of the light.

Covered by darkness and cold little by little, the whole world shrank rapidly, until it was restored to its original state, and everything that remained of the entire universe was recharged to the extinguished cosmic furnace, so that it could be ignited again, this time was measured in trillions of years, but now, the cosmic furnace in front of me was being artificially extinguished.

This is the truth of the alternation of epochs and epochs, no matter which timeline it is, the epoch destruction of the universe is the rule, in the Cyber universe, similar to one of the five gods of the universe, the Swallowing Star, is the survivor left after the destruction of the previous epoch.

Only the most powerful beings can survive the alternation of epochs with difficulty, and live alone in the new epoch.

This is not a blessing, but a curse of eternal loneliness.

"A distorted reality reaction with a large amount of N metal detected!"

On the spaceship operated by Batman, a cold mechanical voice was heard: "There is an overlap in the space ahead, extremely dangerous!"

"Friends, we're going to walk the next road by ourselves!"

Batman looked at the heroes scattered in various cabins behind him, and he said in a deep voice, "We are not gathered here today to protect our earth, but the whole world, therefore, we also have reinforcements from other worlds!"

After the words fell, the spaceship continued to the foreground, and after bypassing the overlapping space, on the other side of the cosmic furnace, the huge teleportation reaction that spread across the entire starry sky, and the cannon fire flying in the sky, as if the end of the world attracted everyone's attention.

The vast swarms of starships are battling the fragments of the dark world scattered around the cosmic furnaces, and every minute and every second there is a burst of fire lighting up the icy starry sky, and on the decks of these warships is an intricate pattern painted on the deck of these warships, which is the symbol of the Spartan Star Sea Empire, as the most powerful secular civilization in the universe, these aliens will not sit idly by and watch the universe fall.

Before the arrival of the earthlings, they had already waged a great war with the forces of Barbatos.

On the other side of the battlefield is the Nova Legion, which has also launched a charge offensive, and in this timeline, they have not been suppressed by Cyber, and their power is still strong.

Then there is the light shining in the stars, the light of the Lamp Ring, at the moment when the world is about to be destroyed, the Lamp Ring Legion that fights each other is also rarely united, as well as the armies from other mysterious civilizations, under the backdrop of their magnificent armies, the Earth Expeditionary Force of this world is really as weak as ants.

"They don't know us, but thanks to these aliens, they have opened a passage for us!"

Superman Clark opened the hatch and rushed to the surface of the cosmic furnace, and behind him, the heroes of the earth wore all kinds of armor and rushed towards the surface of the furnace.

In every inch of the land, forces from across the universe are struggling to fight against the dark armies of another multiverse, and as Batman says, they are not alone!

The whole universe is united... All beings are fighting for survival, even if they don't know it, all the meaning of their existence is just a gamble to entertain a higher being.

But so what? Who says that the chess pieces of the game cannot fight to survive?

Life is hard to come by, but once it has taken root, it is almost impossible to destroy it completely... This is the tenacity of life, even if you know that you will die tomorrow, but at least this dark dawn is still worth all life, fight for it, and abandon everything for it!

"Boom"

All the beings fighting on the surface of the Crucible were attracted by a roar that resounded through the vacuum, and they looked back to see a dark, steel, bat-like figure rushing into the Crucible World at almost the speed of light, and the moment he landed, the entire surface of the Cosmic Crucible trembled.

With the blessing of the speed force, the Ring of Lights, and the enchantment of divine power, Bruce Wayne, who piloted the armor of the Hellbat Bat, like the bravest samurai in this ruined world, rushed wildly on the battlefield, and everywhere he went, the fragments of darkness were shattered, and he alone could be worthy of an army!

"Hellbat is terrifying!"

Little Lightning Barry grew his mouth in surprise: "Our efforts have paid off! Bruce will be our sharpest sword!"

"Bang"

The empty-handed Hellbat smashed into the flame-scorched ground with a punch, blasting open a passage to the deepest part of the World Furnace, he jumped down, Superman followed him, and the two of them fell for 5 minutes into the true core of the World Furnace, and in front of them was a dark red magma pool that spread all over the core of the Cosmic Furnace.

In the middle of the magma pool, the Laughing Bat is sitting on a rock with a black pistol, as if waiting specifically for Batman's arrival.

"Behold, the whole universe is united! You are fighting against the fate of Barbatos... It's so moving, what a great sacrifice!"

The laughing bat shouted these words like a singing opera, but the next moment, he changed his words:

"Look at you, Bruce, you look at me with hatred, as if I ruined everything for you, but not like that, I'm going to say, we're just pawns of Barbatos, and we can throw away that kind of ... My fate is not much better than yours, in fact, we exist only to attract the eyes of the overlord, and we have been outcasts from the beginning. ”

"But it doesn't matter, there is also a spring for the outcast... Here you are, and we are free!"

"And you're not really stupid enough to think that I'm your last opponent... Ahem, allow me to introduce you to Barbatos' last defense in the world's crucible..."

"Whew!"

A loud sound that shook the stars sounded at this moment with the magma rolling at the core of the entire world, and a terrifying, tall monster that was hundreds of meters tall, slowly stood up from the magma, it was like a demon dragon covered in dark red scales, its thick legs pierced into the magma, and the wings behind it spread out, enveloping the darkness above the world's crucible, and it held a huge, hideous war hammer in its hands.

And the eyes under the metal helmet like an eagle were full of tyranny and madness.

"This is your real opponent... Do you remember your former good friend Carter Hall, who defeated Barbatos, and was reborn in the dark!!"

"He's... Dragon of Barbatos!"
