Chapter 177: The End and the Beginning (End of Volume 2)

I'm Bain.

One might have thought that Bane was most likely a man who never gave up.

Some people may have thought that Bane was most likely in Taoguang and deliberately obeyed Batman's orders, just to fight back at the last moment.

And in fact...... Bane really wanted to do that.

Once.

Brainiac fell to the ground.

"You ......"

He turned to look at Bane.

"You took the initiative to let me read your memory." He said with difficulty: "You really wanted to cooperate with me and betray Batman. ”

"Your memories are true, your thoughts are firm and vicious, and that kind of memory cannot be forged by anyone."

Because that's what I think.

Bane thought silently.

At that time, he sincerely thought about teaming up with Brainiac and stabbing Batman in the back.

"What made you change your mind?"

"Why are you?" Brainiac asked...... Ahh!!hhhhh ”

Before he could finish his sentence, he was stopped by his own uncontrollable screams.

Half of his body fell to the ground with a clatter, like a dissolved candle.

"Stalling for time doesn't do anything, Brainac. A boring question won't change your outcome. ”

Wonder Woman helped Batman up, and Chen Tao, who was too weak to stand up, stood in front of Brainiac.

He felt that the world was a little blurry, and the other party's voice seemed to come from through a heavy fog.

"The truth is that I'm standing and you're down, Brainac."

Brainiac didn't speak.

"Don't waste any more effort, you also have Doomsday spores hidden in your organic body, right? This body is completely discardable to you, so you don't have to worry about becoming a permanent doom. ”

"You are not a life that depends on your brain, whether physical or mechanical, it is a harbor for you, and it is also a shackle for you. Even if this body is turned to stone by the Destruction Sun Spore, you can still manipulate it. ”

Chen Tao quietly watched as Bleniac continued to struggle, trying to maintain the balance of his body in the total burst of the four natural energies, but in vain.

"My blockade of your spirit can't always work, as long as you solve us and then shift your mind back to this ship of yours, it's perfectly fine, right?"

Burst!

Once again, a large mass of metal erupted from Brainiac's body, with a faint mixture of carrion, bone, and a touch of green.

This is what happens when the four natural energies come together, and it is what happens if the natural energies on the earth are not balanced with each other.

Spiritual energy, physical chemical energy, spiritual power, everything has become nutrition, which is constantly absorbed by the 4 forces, and then beats out the dog's brain in his body.

"Why?"

Brainiac stared at Bane, one of his eyes bursting out like a frog's eye with a swollen blackness of decay.

"Your memories, your motivations, I analyzed your behavior patterns, and through repeated calculations, I finally came to the conclusion that you would never help Batman."

"He broke your back! He uses his muddy face to fool you like a fool! ”

"And you're even willing to help him?!"

"Why?"

But Brainiac knew he might never get an answer.

His mouth was so badly deformed that half of his face was beginning to melt, completely losing his ability to speak.

"Why......"

He saw Bane bow his head slightly, look at his hands with some amazement, and then turn his head to meet Batman's eyes.

His expression was deep and solemn.

At this time, he and Batman were obviously close at hand, but they seemed to be standing on both sides of the surging river.

Brainiac looked at the two of them.

He knew Batman was ready to deal with Bane. Maybe it's that strange power, or maybe it's just that the other party did something when they strengthened Bane.

How ridiculous.

Brainiac's eyes showed a look of mockery, Batman never trusted anyone, he was always ready to murder his teammates in various positions.

I'm so unwilling! It's so unwilling.

It shouldn't be like this, and he shouldn't be the one who loses!

He's Brainiac, and he's been in countless galaxies......

Never mind.

Reminiscing about the past doesn't help the present. Brainiac suddenly had a sense of distraction, and everything in front of him suddenly lost its meaning to him.

"Because I'm Bane. Because I'm human. ”

He heard the answer he had in his heart, but even at this moment, such an answer lost its meaning to him.

Brainiac felt his thoughts stop.

It made him feel a fear that rippled through him like the gentlest morning breeze.

"Nope. Don't. Who's going to save me. ”

But even with such fearful feelings, all Brainiac could feel now was numbness and endless emptiness.

The feeling of emptiness came over him, and his soul trembled.

It's hard to describe the feeling in words, like the loneliness of dying but not knowing what to do, the loneliness that even fear can't dispel gnaws at his heart, but makes him look forward to sleeping.

Brainiac found himself able to speak again. The four powers subsided in his body, but he knew very well that this meant that his spiritual energy and physical energy had been sucked out by these competing forces, just as the vitality of a cancer patient had been absorbed by the cancer cells and only returned to the light on the last day of his life.

So, at the end of it all, he regained his ability to speak again.

"I don't understand." "I control life, I hold life in my hands," Brainiac said. ”

"I don't know how to describe this feeling in the language of the earth...... "...... But I'm not wrong. ”

At the last moment, the collector who made the world tremble actually said such simple words.

"There is nothing wrong with what I do, and everything I do is meaningful." Again, he stressed: "I, Bryniac, am not without meaning. ”

"I'm protecting lives." "Those lives that should have been extinct, I perpetuated them," he said. I gave them natural selection, I saved them, I arranged everything for them. ”

Then he heard the other party's rebuttal:

"Life cannot be controlled, it cannot be kept in a bottle."

"This ship is life! Countless planets, countless sectors of life have been protected by me, and I have placed them properly, eliminating their inferior genes, so that they can have a longer history here than they have in nature! ”

Brainiac said, yelling at Batman, "I'm right! Right! That's what I mean! ”

"This ship has no life, Brainac, this ship is just your bottle."

Brainiac was in a slight trance for a moment.

He stared into Batman's eyes and saw pity in those eyes.

Suddenly, there was a strong sense of reluctance in his heart, something he had never experienced in his centuries-long life.

"Help me!"

The super AI said to Batman, "I shouldn't have ...... I shouldn't have ended here. I haven't quite found the meaning of my existence yet. ”

He wanted to reach out to Batman, but at this point he couldn't feel his hand anymore.

He lowered his head and saw that his palms and lower body looked like weathered rotten wood.

"How sad, Brainac."

He heard the other man say, "I thought you would make it to the end." ”

Brainiac saw Wonder Woman fly out of the ship, and he knew that they were there to destroy the missiles he was about to launch to destroy the Earth.

So Brainiac took one last look at his ship, the worlds he had collected, the worlds he loved so much.

"You...... You can't take these cities out of my biological shell...... Their position cannot be maintained. ”

"Thanks for the reminder."

He heard Batman say.

Brainiac was slightly silent.

He suddenly stiffened and sat up straight, at the cost of his lower body turning into powder like crumpled charcoal.

"My collection, my everything, now they're all yours."

"Good......," Brainiac said. Treat them well. ”

"They'll go back where they need to be." He heard Batman say, "I'll take care of them." ”

At this time, Brainiac and Batman no longer look like for tat enemies, but like two old men sitting in the square park chatting.

"And I'll also target the mechanical legion you left in the Red of All Beings, the big-headed doll you left in the Batcave, and the cyborg outside who fought Bane before."

Brainiac heard Batman say, "I'm never going to give you a chance to be resurrected." ”

Brainiac's eyes dimmed again for a moment.

"Thank you."

He said.

"And." He said, "Darkseid, the Dark King Darkseid is coming to Earth. Continue to guard your world from Darkseid's hands, Batman. This is the meaning of your existence, the destiny you were born with. ”

His eyes looked at Chen Tao, and it was difficult for Chen Tao to read his true attitude from his eyes.

Is it resentment?

Is it stunned?

Or is it relieved or gloating?

"My meaning should not be left to ......"

But Chen Tao didn't have a chance to let Brainiac hear the latter words again.

A second after he said that, the Collector of the Universe fell to the sky, his body scattered into dust and scattered around every corner of his ship.

Even dead, Brainiac did not leave his ship.

"It's over."

Chen Tao said.

[Warning, warning, Batman, you have found anchor item: Brainac's ashes]

[Introduction: The ashes left behind by Brainiac after his complete death, which embodies Brainiac's desire to find the meaning of life.] Brainiac spent his life trying to define himself rather than being defined by others. You might be able to use it to summon Batman from an alternate universe. 】

[But is it true that existence is called by self-definition? 】

"I'm Brainac. I'm in control of life, I'm in control of everything! ”】

[Transformed Crisis Energy: 319]

【Warning! Downloading targetable Batman files! 】

【Manta Leniac】

[Hazard Level: A-]

[In a dark multiverse, Batman with all his hole cards failed to defeat Brainac, so he used his last hole card: to merge with Brainiac.] Therefore, the old Brainiac and the old Batman are gone, and the only one who exists here is Rayniac the Bat]

Chen Tao was not in the mood to watch Brainiac's journal at this time.

He turned to look at Superman.

At this time, Clark was completely out of Brainiac's control, and he was standing on the ground, wearing a Superman uniform, looking at Batman with a crying and smiling face.

"Batman!"

"What's wrong, Superman?"

"I'm incapacitated, I'm no longer Superman."

"What do you mean?"

"My Kryptonian constitution is gone." Clark said, "My Kryptonian physique, with the Doom Sun Spore that I cleared with youβ€”"

He said, "All gone." ”

……

……

……

"After being attacked by a notorious treasure hunter known to the world as the Black Manta Ray, local lighthouse keeper Thomas Curry was quickly taken to the emergency room......

"Recently, Thomas Curry denied the claims made by marine biologist Stephen Shen that his son was Atlantean......

"But in a world where there are Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman, even stranger things have been proven......"

Deep.

Arthur opened his eyes, his father's deathbed voice echoing in his head.

"How could he do that?"

"Arthur, you only need to do one thing after I die......"

"No, Daddy......"

"Tell him I've been waiting for her, I've been, I've been ......"

Arthur looked at the man in front of him and heard his voice:

"My king. Please come with me. ”

……

……

……

"Superman was the most powerful superhero in the world, but he's been missing for more than two months."

The man in front of him ripped off the poster of Superman hanging in mid-air, and behind the poster, Barry Allen made the same vigorous gesture as Superman.

He saw the man in front of him turn his head and look at him, "I need to test if you can be as great as Superman." ”

……

……

……

Victor Stone sat in his football changing room, and his father still didn't come to his game.

But then, the door creaked.

He turned his head hopefully. But it was just a little boy who came in.

"Hey, hello, is it Victorstone?"

The little boy looked excited: "Okay, I'm a fan of yours, my name is Billy." ”

He happily ran up to Victorstone: "Can you sign for me?" ”

Cyborg did so.

"Your family will be proud of you." He heard the other man say.

……

……

……

Apocalypse.

Darkseid stared silently at the projection of the planet in front of him, his rock-like face expressionless.

"Brainiac was defeated, and even died for it, my master."

The dark shadow beside him said, "Is this planet really a problem that Steppenwolf can solve alone?" ”

"The Kryptonian has lost his abilities."

The shadow heard Darkseid's voice, erupting low like magma.

"The problem will be solved."

He looked at the shadow next to him, which had a large S on his chest.

"And the Earth will also get a new superman."
