Chapter 139: The World on the Edge of Destruction
The sky was covered in ominous blood, and it was impossible to tell whether it was day or night, and the whole city was like a ghost town with no lights, but the city was not without people, because of the uniformity, the cold and unforgiving voices echoed throughout the city.
"All one, all to Darkseid!"
"There has never been a being like Darkseid: let everything cease to exist!"
"Death! Death! Die for Darkseid! ”
If it weren't for the rusty street sign with Canterlot clearly written on it, Red would have thought he had stumbled to Apocalypse, or Hell or something.
Apparently, Red did return to the DC world, but it looks like the world is on the verge of destruction.
Red is now hiding in a building known as the Canterlot Police Department, and he does not make any noise as much as he can, quietly watching the completely unconscious crowd walk by.
I saw countless people wearing strange helmets on their heads and repeating monotonous slogans, and it can be seen that some people's bodies have even undergone abnormal changes, and some of their bodies have developed strange characteristics of insects or beasts.
And this scene is not new to Red, he had seen this scene before he left this world last time-
That is the result of Darkseid's anti-life equation diffusion.
However, the last time, before the curse could spread completely, Red used a city-wide Hell Blood Brake to end everything, but now Red may not be able to replicate the same practice.
It's not that he doesn't want to, it's that he can't.
Red sighed lightly, and looked at his right arm with complicated eyes, only to see that the ghost hand, which should have been covered in blood, was now pale for some reason, and there was a feeling of emptiness.
What's more, Red can't sense the power of blood at all.
Yes, the red light energy and blood power that originally ran through the whole body were now completely unable to mobilize Red for some reason, as if his body had been drained.
The red light ring is still on his hand, but most of the functions of the light ring are also unusable, but the only consolation for him is that the function as a personal computer seems to be still usable.
In that case......
"Lantern Ring, help me contact the other members of the Lantern Regiment."
To be honest, Red was a little nervous when he gave the order to the Lantern Ring, but after a short pause, the familiar voice that sounded at the same time made Red's nervous heart immediately relax.
"Meow~"
"Hmph, you've finally come up, but I only forgive you for this kind of behavior of leaving your queen behind for two months, ...... you this time"
"The queen sends messages every day to contact you, but anyway, I'm relieved that the boy is safe......"
Thankfully, the confirmation that Spiritstar, Hela, and Ivan are all safe and sound now makes Red feel a lot more at ease.
However, Red also keenly grasped the point of their words, it seems that none of them crossed into this world at the same time as himself?
But in any case, knowing that he was not alone at this juncture still made Red breathe a sigh of relief.
"Where are you all now, there seems to be something wrong with my lamp ring, there is no way to find out your location, are you safe now?"
Judging from the feedback from the other members of the Lantern Order, Red found himself as if he was the only unlucky ghost among the people.
Hela was the first to come to this world two months ago, and she is now a guest of honor on Shemisgela, Wonder Woman's hometown of Paradise Island;
Ivan Vanko came to this world a month ago, and according to him, he appeared in the Metropolis, befriended a bald man named Lex Luthor, and joined the Super Villain Secret Society at his invitation.
And there doesn't seem to be anything abnormal about their light rings, the red light energy can be used freely, and it seems that only Red's own light ring has a problem.
As for the spirit star.....
"You're in space in space—"
Red rubbed his eyes and squinted at the sky, but now blocked by the blood-colored canopy, he couldn't see anything now.
"And Batman...... Bat families together? ”
Although everyone was separated to different places, the situation was different, but after knowing that they were safe, Red was also relieved, and he also felt a little sleepy.
And judging from the situation they reflected, the world is indeed on the verge of destruction, but it is not completely finished, at least some of the spark of resistance remains.
Then it was time to find a way to solve Red's own problem, and Red yawned and began to tell Ivan about his situation.
"Your lamp ring is out of order? But it stands to reason that this can't happen...... After all, according to the program I entered, your lamp ring should be the core of all our lamp rings, and at the same time play the role of central energy battery and server terminal, and it was because our lamp rings were functioning normally before, so I was sure that you were safe and sound......"
Hearing Ivan's words, Red's face was black, he had never heard of the red light total energy in his human form before.
And even if Ivan said this, Red was still completely unable to drive the red light energy or the power of blood qi, except for being able to use the lamp ring to communicate with strange people, he was an ordinary person with a slightly better physique.
"Now I can't check the problem, it seems that you can only find a way to meet me first, and I will help you check the lamp ring in person...... Hey, Red, are you listening to me? ”
"I'm sorry, Ivan...... I'll get back to you later. ”
Red yawned and was noticed by Ivan, and a strong drowsiness attacked his brain.
Ever since he wore the red light ring, Red had rarely felt tired or sleepy, after all, the severe pain in his body and the raging anger of his spirit had kept him in a state of euphoria for a long time, but it was obvious that these were no longer effective.
No, I'm sleepy...... Gotta sleep.
Red found a relatively safe and secluded place, got under a desk and curled up, and after letting the lamp ring wake him up immediately in case of any danger, Red closed his heavy eyelids-
Then he woke up with a burning pain that ran through his body.
What's going on?!
At this moment, Red once again clearly felt the surging red light energy in his body, and the red ghost hand on his right arm seemed to be able to feel the low roar of the monster inside.
"Ivan, things have changed, and I seem to be able to-"
But Red's expression froze in the next second, because he found that although he had regained his strength of flesh, he could not contact Ivan.
To be precise, he didn't even have a lamp ring in his hand.
And if you look closely, this is not a police station in Canterlot at all, and it is surrounded by walls made of unknown metal......
Could it be that it was just a dream? But the idea was immediately rejected by Red, who was supposed to not be able to take off the red light ring, and if it was a dream, it should be now......
"It's true on both sides, Red Douglas, at least for you."
A voice suddenly rang out, and Red turned his head to see that it was a brown-skinned woman in blue armor and a gold helmet.
"I'm Kiro Vala of the Overseers—"
"Welcome to the last bastion of the multiverse, the Dome."
