For a moment, Eric felt like he was dead. Ever since he had done what he could have done the craziest act he'd ever made, synchronizing Brainiac's infinite data, he felt his consciousness sink into a dead darkness, as if he were sinking deeper and deeper into the dark sea.

This time, maybe it's really over, right?

As he was thinking this, he had subconsciously begun to let his thoughts sink into darkness, but at this moment, a warm and pure white light suddenly filled the entire space of consciousness. An invisible hand crept under the surface of the water, grasping him tightly, and a voice from a distant sky seemed to call him not to give up, and dragged him out of the ghost gate.

Looks like it's not time to rest yet. His battle is not over.

Eric opened his heavy eyelids, instinctively feeling that the light was a little too harsh. It took him a moment to realize that he was dangling with his feet off the ground, supported by a warm and soft white light. The pain of omega and the sub-Morte virus in his collapsed body reminded him that he was still alive and not in heaven.

He looked around, and the first thing he noticed was a cute girl with a rather immature appearance, her long silver hair hanging down softly with her crooked head, and her eyes were as clear as sapphires, but if you looked closely, you could see that there were countless data rolling in those bright eyes.

"You ......"

"Irina." The girl spoke, "You're inside me." ”

It's really a terrible line, and it's even worse if she says it so plainly and seriously. Of course, Eric understood what she meant, Irina was an intelligent representation of Brad's spaceship, so he was in Brad's spaceship now.

After a little recollection, he remembered what had happened before, and hurriedly asked, "What about Brainac?" Did we win? ”

"Take it easy."

It was Brad, who was coming out of the depths of the cabin, and said, "Brainiac has been dealt with—you've got it done." To tell you the truth, we were all taken aback when we saw what you were doing. The energy level of the remnants of that dimension makes us almost wonder if there has been an interstellar war. Brainiac's headquarters was completely destroyed, and the main database was shattered, so I think it must have been completely uprooted this time. ”

Although Eric was completely unconscious at the time, and had no impression of anything at all, since Brad said so, it must be an exaggeration of destruction...... Wait a minute.

"What about the Winged Knight?" He asked, "I remember when I lost consciousness, the Wingknight was still with me. If that battle was really as fierce as you said, did I ...... him?"

"It's also rest assured, that guy is very witty." "He knew it might be so, and when you went to war, he hid in Brainac's tower where his master data was stored, and he escaped the impact with Brightac's shield. And at the last moment when the shield was also destroyed, the bishop and I arrived to block the final impact. ”

Eric breathed a sigh of relief, "Well, at least I didn't kill him." Speaking of which, I owe him a thank you...... And now what about them? ”

"Back to his own world." Brad shrugged, "The bishop went with him, too, and they seem to have a lot to talk about." ”

"Batman?"

"It's all right - the Justice League found him in the tower in Brainac, and he wasn't very conscious at the time, and he didn't have any memories of the previous moment. But he recovered quickly. ”

After a pause, Brad said helplessly: "But you can really fix it, Brainiac's collection of knowledge reserves is bottomless, and many of them are fields that have never been touched by humans, you don't even want to directly absorb them by force, even among all the crazy actions you have done, right?" ”

"Prizes, prizes," Eric smiled, "so-so." ”

Brad muttered a little and said, "But it's quite risky for you to do this, and you don't know what kind of situation we were in when we found you." With the White Lantern Ring, I can sense the slightest mood swings and life energy of any living creature, but at that time, you gave me the feeling that it was almost empty. I can't feel the slightest bit of a creature's mood swing in you, and even life is so weak that it's somewhere between life and death. It took me a lot of effort to bring you back with the life energy of the white light, and your body is already in pieces......

Eric said indifferently: "It's nothing new, at least I'm still alive." ”

"But it won't be long." Brad shook his head and said, "Even if you don't dress up and fight again, time is running out." And if you wear armor next time...... That could be the last time – and this is by no means my alarmism. ”

Eric pondered for a moment and said, "So your suggestion is to stop using my armor and wait quietly for death?" ”

"Nope. What I mean by that is that the last chance should be chosen carefully...... Make it most meaningful. Brad paused and smiled bitterly, "If it were me, I would do it." ”

"yes," Eric said with a relaxed smile as he lay back on his back, "we're the same kind of people." ”

But even if you look indifferent, if you really don't care, you're still lying. Eric stared at the white snow-capped peaks outside the spaceship window for a long time, and couldn't help but be a little distracted.

For the last time, it will have to be used at the really critical moment.

He couldn't help but vaguely remember what Brainiac had said at the end, and although he didn't have any memory of the battle at the end of the battle, the Warframe's consciousness had recorded the battle, so he also had some vague impressions.

"Even if you win this time, it will only bring a temporary tranquility to your earth, and the boundless darkness has long enveloped your planet, it is the ultimate darkness that is far more terrible than mine, and your fate has long been irreversible. So even if you run out of life here, it's pointless to defeat me......"

Is it more terrible than Brainiac's ultimate darkness...... So what could it be?

At this moment, in another dimension incomparably far away from Earth, on a scarlet planet that spews hellish fire.

The Monarch of Darkness sat on a high throne, and the endless Miscellaneous Soldiers like a black tide fell to their knees neatly, like the most devout of the Cultists, chanting in unison the slogan "Long live Darkseid".

The burly warrior wearing a helmet with antlers and a red cloak knelt down in front of the throne, bowed his head and said, "Great Darkseid, everything is ready, warriors of all dimensions are ready. ”

The black giant sat on the throne without moving, like a sculpture, but the aura of the king was intimidating. He didn't speak, but a female voice came from behind him, "Very good, Steppenwolf." Prepare for the greatest journey in the history of the Apocalypse, which is about to begin! ”
