Chapter 2138: The Ultimate New World (17)
It's a terrifying thing for anyone – you're training with Captain America, trying to familiarize yourself with your newfound powers, looking to the future, and then you wake up and find yourself back in your San Francisco apartment, where it all starts all over again.
This is not quite the same as traversing, at most it is leaving the original familiar environment and accepting a new environment, but now everything is familiar, which makes starting all over again more like a nightmare for yourself.
How does this make Bruce accept?
No matter how unintelligent he is, he can be sure that everything he has just experienced is not a dream at all, and no sane adult will confuse dreams and reality.
Bruce is not a psychopath at all, and the dish has the benefit of the dish, at most he has some paranoid revenge for the death of his parents, and he has not lost himself in the day-to-day suspicion and prudence, and has become a pure psychopath like other Batmans.
So his sanity is enough for him to judge, he was suddenly reborn, what he experienced was not a dream scene in a bloody horror movie, he really gained strength, and then was reset back to a weak period.
Who can accept all this?
Think about it, you have always felt that you can't do a lot of things, but compared to the people around you, you think this is also normal, who can save a hopeless city with a few years of accumulation, it's a big deal to take your time.
But suddenly one day, you came to a game, and found that you were so strong in other universes, yes, other Batmen didn't save Gotham, but how could Bruce not envy the powerful skills of other universes?
What can be seen with the naked eye is that this is not something that can be honed by experience, Bruce is the least talented of all Batman, and it is useless for him to sharpen it for decades.
This will definitely bring another kind of despair, that is, such a strong Batman can't save Gotham, what's the point of his own efforts?
Just give up, it's a dead end anyway, why should I work hard to the end?
It can be said that what keeps Bruce going is his obsession with the unexplained death of his parents.
But suddenly, I came to a new world, not only to obtain powerful equipment through the mission, but also to obtain incomparably powerful power in the experience of this world.
Bruce knows that this kind of power is stronger than other Batmans, other Batmen are stronger in intelligence, and great intelligence can indeed bring powerful changes, but who says a strong body can't do it?
And everything went smoothly, he almost painlessly gained much more powerful power than ordinary people, and he also had an experienced, kind and upright senior to guide him.
Isn't it true that there is a crisis to be solved and many profitable tasks that can be used to hone the strength you have just gained and the skills you have just learned?
It is conceivable that if you return from your studies here and return to your hometown, even if you can't completely save Gotham, you can at least make this dark city a little better.
It's true that it only needs to be a little better, Bruce doesn't want much, he is not as sick as other Batmans, and he has to make Gotham as sunny as Metropolis.
It is precisely because he has experienced too many failures and recognized that he is a failed man, so he feels that it is good that even the parents of one more child will not be shot.
I'm about to do all this, everything is within reach, right in front of me, just go on step by step.
That's when time reset.
How could Bruce accept all this?
If I have never seen hope, then darkness is acceptable, but not only do I see hope, but I am already on the road to hope, how can I not try my best to grasp that glimmer of light?
As mentioned before, Bruce didn't think that his strength was due to being bitten by a spider, and he thought it was a desperate virus, and through the memories of the previous reincarnation, he knew that the desperate virus was probably related to the water source, so Bruce began to drink water desperately.
Aisha also arrived as scheduled, but unfortunately Bruce couldn't accept the sudden disappointment of hope at this time, and began to redeem it all in the way he could in the way he could, as an ordinary person.
Bruce turned on the faucet, poured a belly of water, and collapsed on the couch to begin waiting for his mutation.
The mutation did happen, but unfortunately the mutation of the desperate virus was not so powerful at all, and at this time, the white can did not start three rounds of virus delivery at all.
For those homeless people who have always been ugly and thin, the change is earth-shattering, but for Bruce, who already has an incomparably handsome face and a strong body, the change is minimal.
After experiencing the change from 1~10, how can he accept the change from 1~2? Moreover, this change is not even 2, at most 0.1 more.
Bruce was not reconciled at all, he remembered his previous experience, so he went to apply for the construction site again, and rushed out the moment the group of poisoners arrived at the construction site, desperately snatched the potion from their hands, and poured it all into his mouth.
Things got out of hand, completely out of control.
The virus in the second phase is not so stable, so it needs a lot of water to dilute it, otherwise wouldn't it be okay to sell the medicine directly in white cans?
Bruce mutates into a monster after swallowing an overdose of the Desperation Virus, and completely loses his mind due to the side effects of the Desperation Virus.
The results after that can only be said that we in San Francisco also have our own Hulk.
Nick, who was squatting in front of the screen, quickly pressed the pause button, this is not good, although Batman's transformation into Spider-Man may involve copyright disputes, but becoming a monster is to scandalize the image of the other party's important characters, and it is also not good.
So what else can be done? Let's do it all over again.
If Schiller and the other three were there, they might have stopped Nick, because resetting the timeline repeatedly is a very dangerous thing to do, and many times the more you go back in time, the more you won't get the desired result.
But Schiller is busy looking for Spider-Man, the least of all who believes that Spider-Man will commit suicide, and Peter Parker will not lose his heart in the face of any adversity, and even depression and depression are rare.
It can be seen from Spider-Man's previous experience in Gotham, although the language in his diary is very humorous, but the details revealed between the lines can also see how dark and depressing the atmosphere of Gotham is, Peter is still very optimistic, and even the Joker can't break his defense.
Also, the zombie universe has become chaotic and desperate like that, Spider-Man can rely on his kind heart to forcibly awaken his own sanity, how can such a person commit suicide?
And there is another paradox here, if Peter Parker committed suicide when Bruce first came, then where did the Spider-Man who called Captain America to announce the death of Captain America come from?
Can't he die first and then come back to life, and run to see the dead Captain America and make another call, right?
There's definitely something strange about that.
But whatever the hell is going on, Schiller has to get Spider-Man and Captain America out.
As soon as they heard that Schiller might go to Death to get people again, Loki and Strange were not at ease, because as we all know, Schiller's encounter with Death meant that he was going to have a big job again.
Loki went back to find Hela, preparing to go to the Realm of the Dead first, and Strange followed Schiller, telling him to restrain himself a little, at least not to make any earth-shattering things during the Fighting World test.
Everyone else is gone, and Nick sees that this timeline is going in the wrong direction, and he has to reset it if he doesn't want to.
So Nick had to cut out the future of this timeline and go back to when Bruce first arrived.
Now, Bruce returns to his apartment in San Francisco with the memories of two reincarnations.
Can this Bruce not go crazy? Isn't this God against him?
Other Batmen were born with everything, a peerless genius-like IQ, strong willpower, a strong physique, and even a big family with complex and awkward relationships, but still warm, and nothing of their own.
Is this fair?
Once one begins to ask this question, it is inevitable that the mind will go all the way to the tip of the horns.
Normally, Batman doesn't crave too much power, and there must be a part of his brain that warns him that too much power means losing control.
But unfortunately, once a person's wisdom does not reach a certain level, it is difficult to maintain sanity under temptation.
Bruce had experienced the power of power, and he knew how much he needed it, and for the sake of his duty, for the sake of his mission, he had to get it.
Bruce knew that this reset was not an accident, and that someone must be stopping something, so he decided not to go the old route, not to go to the construction site to grab the virus agent, but to go directly to the Osborne Group's experimental center.
This time he didn't have super strength, so he didn't get much attention from Osborne, but it was clear that from the previous two resets, Bruce knew that someone would contact him to get information about the Osborne Group, so he told the Osborne Group about it.
Sure enough, Norman Osborne, the old fox, was very sensitive to someone trying to steal information about his group, and everything was back on track, and the Osborne group took Bruce to New York.
This time Bruce didn't have spider sense, and he didn't choose to run away, but chose to face Norman Osborne head-on.
As a result, Bruce got it wrong again.
He learned from Osborne's mouth that the Osborne group was only investigating the virus in San Francisco, and they were not the culprit, nor did they have the original body of the virus, let alone provide anyone with great power.
Bruce didn't give up at all, because he didn't have the ability to see if Osborne was lying, so he tacitly assumed that Osborne was trying to cover up the facts, so he didn't tell him the truth.
He was kicked out of the mansion by Osborne, but this time Aisha helped him a lot, Bruce offered to enter the Osborne Group to search, Aisha didn't quite know why he did it, but he still helped him and helped him cover the Osborne Group's security system for a while.
Bruce took advantage of the night to enter the Osborne Group building, originally trying to find out if there was a virula.
But to his disappointment, what the elder Osborne said was probably true, although the Osborne Group is a biochemical pharmaceutical company, it has not conducted research on viruses for a long time.
However, Bruce's luck was really good, Bruce really didn't find the Desperate Virus, but he found the symbiote armor, to be exact, the unfinished Green Goblin armor.
Well, Bruce didn't become Spider-Man, he became his nemesis, the Green Goblin.
In fact, this is a little better than him becoming Spider-Man, but the bad thing is that the Green Goblin armor at this time has not been completed, and Bruce did not put it on voluntarily, but broke the isolation compartment and was possessed, which caused him to lose control again.
Nick also found that this was not going to work, and he saw that Bruce's actions were strange, and it was very likely that his memories had not been reset, and he was caught in the vortex of power-seeking.
But considering that this timeline could cause irreversible damage to Bruce if it continues, and it is still an infringement, Nick chooses to cut this timeline again and reset everything back to the beginning.
