Knights of DC

Chapter 1085 Resonance
In the apartment building, Ke Xue, who had fainted for the second time, also woke up leisurely after being tossed by his twin, the younger sister from the future of the third branch. The younger brother who emerged from the body and turned into a humanoid demon in front of him?Ke Xue rolled his eyes again, and was about to fall over.

"Why are you here again?" Seeing Ke Xue's move to score twice, Ke Lan couldn't help complaining.It’s just that the words haven’t finished yet, maybe it’s because the angle wasn’t right, and Ke Xue, who fell on his back, didn’t touch the pillow. On the contrary, he was hit hard on the edge of the bed.

"Oh! Hiss..." He took a breath, and Ke Xue, who regained consciousness due to the pain, also understood that what he saw now was not a dream, and he sighed, accepting the fact that his sister was weird.

"Hey, can you tell me what's going on? Whether it's your appearance or what happened, tell me about yourself if you don't mind. I woke up this month and received too much information. So exciting."

Sitting there, Ke Xue, who came back to his senses, also said helplessly, especially looking at his abdomen, where there was originally a Kamen Rider transformation drive of his own, but now, all that is left to him are those The Pandora's box brought from the future branch of the savior Ke Wen and the energy bottle obtained in this current timeline are full.

"Don't look so pessimistic, brother, you have the halo of the son of the world, don't you do everything you want, it's okay." Seeing Ke Xue's suddenly melancholy appearance, Ke Lan hurriedly comforted there , and the younger brother Ke Ji, who came out of her body with only the upper body spirit body, floated aside with a face on his shoulders, too lazy to listen to his sister's lines to comfort his brother.

"Child of the world? If I hadn't been in a coma for a month, I think it's okay for you to say this, but now, don't use this to comfort me. Let's talk about you, the future of the third branch? Me, big brother The future mother of the branch is Supergirl and Lena Luthor, so, you are Zatanna?" Ke Xue, who regained his composure for a while, looked at Ke Lan's weird twin, and said uncertainly.

Because he couldn't imagine the combination of his father and the magical side, and the offspring born would also have such a magical side.

"Hmm, that's right, but not quite right," Ke Lan nodded in response to Ke Xue's rhetorical question, and seeing Ke Xue's strange expression after his own response, he quickly explained there: " Don't get me wrong, I mean he and I were indeed born from the combination of my father and Zatanna's mother, but there was something wrong with my mother, and we became what we are now, twins of one body."

"I think that's the problem, that's why Dad asked you to come to this correct timeline. How long have you been here?" Ke Xue didn't delve into this aspect, and asked the next question there.

"Oh, it didn't take long. During the Apocalypse full-scale invasion of the earth war, I came to the international free trade island, which is one of the event nodes of the new era, and then I have been watching everything in secret. If it weren't for my brother, you are too Impulsive, I really don't want to meet you so soon." Ke Lan waved his hand there, and said helplessly.

But Ke Xue caught a lot of important information in Ke Lan's words, narrowed his eyes, and looked at Ke Lan.

"Wait a minute, you said that you came during the great war, but you appeared when I was impulsive and tried to stop me, because you know that even if you add me, the members of the Justice League who are currently in the handover state are not Da Kesaid's opponent, that is to say, you know how things will develop next. Is the third branch you come from so late in the future? Conan and I are the big brother you haven't seen, right? Appeared in that third branch future turning point?"

Ke Xue, who calmed down, also analyzed a lot of information from Ke Lan's words, but the more he analyzed, the more frightened Ke Xue became. The future turning points of the two branches of himself and Conan were similar. Existing in whether Ke Wen chooses to go to the universe or not to go to the universe, why is the third branch that his sister comes from so far in the future, even the appearance of himself and Conan appear in it, it shouldn’t be, they are not a branch Future people?

"This time I believe you were born by Lena's little mother. I can't tell you now what the reason for the third branch of the future came into being, but you are right. I do know the outcome of this incident, and I know the existence of the two of you, because in the branch future where I am, you and the big brother did not reveal their true identities, but the Kamen Rider Kuga who was born on Krypton and the Kamen who was born in this war The knight Build appeared and helped Dad. After this incident was settled, you disappeared.

At the beginning, I didn’t know who the two real knights who appeared in the future history of the branch I was in were, until Dad sent us over and told us that there were two older brothers from the future branch, and then through observation , I just knew that Build is you, and based on your situation, I probably understand that you are the child of Lena's mother, so who is the Kamen Rider Sora who was born on Krypton, do you still have to ask? "

After listening, Ke Xue also understood that he and Conan should have failed in the third branch of the future experienced by Ke Lan and Keji, otherwise there would not be a third branch of the future, but he did not expect the third branch of the future. The future of this branch is serious enough to record the historical traces of him and Conan.

"So, in your branch future, Conan's mother and I are both dead, right?"

"Yes, it is a matter of course. The future of our three branches is caused by the three choices of our father, but the time node for the future of the third branch has not yet arrived. I don't need to explain this to you now, because we do Not too much, the layout in advance does not have any effect, what we can do now is to intervene in the next event, so that there will be a few more abnormal points, so that when the third branch comes in the future, we will There is greater confidence."

"How many more abnormal points?" Ke Xue also asked in doubt.

"The first one is you, idiot brother. In my branch future, although you and big brother have historical traces, there is no scene where Build fights Darkseid as soon as he comes out, and he is also abolished." After losing the transformation device, the next one should be the big brother, I was very active in the battle against Darkseid in the Kryptonian sky, but now that the big brother is missing, it’s hard to say what will happen next.”

Ke Lan was also talking about the current abnormal situation there, and Ke Xue also changed his expression when his sister said that he was abolished by Darkseid. He turned his head and looked at Nasino who was under construction outside the window. City, also asked there: "So the best way for us now is to do nothing?"

"Hey... for now, it's like this. It's best to do nothing, and brother, you really need to strengthen yourself. You have to be able to bring out the aura of the child of the world."

"Okay, don't educate me anymore at this time, don't you think I'm not embarrassing enough, that...cough, brother, come here, don't keep me talking to your sister, I'm also your brother. "

Originally wanted to call Ke Ji, who pretended to be a ghost, but just thought of the meaning of the name, Ke Xue also let out a dry cough to cover up his embarrassment, so he said hello there, speaking of it, my father is really not good at naming names In this way, let alone a few of them, how can they still be called Corgi.And Ke Ji, who had shown a vicious look in front of Ke Xue before, floated over with a face full of reluctance, and the three brothers and sisters were chatting with each other about branching the future.

At the same time, in the Titan Building on the outskirts of the city, Ke Wen was also sitting in front of the computer, playing with Cyborg on a loop while Darkseid attacked Wayne Manor, and then knocked down a group of members of the Justice League and the new generation. The whole video of Batman killing Damian and taking him away, although Cyborg didn't join the battle at the time, but fortunately the watchtower in space recorded all this.

In a month's time, the wounds they suffered in the battle against Darkseid have healed, but more often they need to heal the wounds in their hearts. Of course, there are many things they need to deal with.As the biggest supporter in this war against Apocalypse's invasion of the earth, the loss of the Lantern Corps is the most serious. Although this is the responsibility, Hal, as a member of the Legion, must also take on the obligation to help the Lantern Corps Find new members.

Neptune also needs to return to Atlantis to deal with international affairs, not to mention other cities, but also to help rebuild his own city. It can be said that each member has his own affairs to deal with.Including Ke Wen, what he is doing now is to repeatedly check this video to find out why Darkseid is so powerful, and of course, there are three uninvited guests who appeared in this battle.

"Tsk, this is outrageous. Little Jonathan plus a Kong Ke is difficult. Neither of them has ever beaten Darkseid? Although one of these two guys is still growing, the other has matured. A complete fight will not be a match." Let’s face it, and these lightnings, when did Darkseid play lightning attack, isn’t he full of Omega rays, what happened to this guy?”

Watching the video, after Darkseid captured Jonathan Jr. and Conk in a two-person hurricane, the Omega rays continued to output, and directly beat them to half death. Basically, there were not a single superhero left. It is his all-in-one enemy. Even in the final battle between the Big Three and Ke Xue's future Build, Darkseid unilaterally suppressed it with one hand.

But Ke Wen also fast-forwarded the video to the scene where Ke Xue was affected by the aftermath of the battle, and his transformation was lifted. Seeing Ke Xue's face after the transformation was lifted, Ke Wen was taken aback because he recognized Ke Xue's appearance .

"Although they are all from the same family, I am still surprised that you are the original Kamen Rider Build of the DC universe. If this is the case, the other one who didn't appear is probably a Kamen Rider I know. Tsk, but it always feels a bit weird." Ke Wen carefully looked at Ke Xue's appearance after being disarmed and transformed by Darkseid at the beginning, and then looked at Ke Xue's unlucky appearance when he resisted Omega rays in order to help Batman block damage .

The more he looked at it, the more Ke Wen felt that something was wrong. The face was still the same, but Ke Wen felt as if he had seen it somewhere.Until Ke Wen switched the screen back to the moment when Ke Lan transformed to block Darkseid's hand, the moment of darkness when the screen switched also allowed Ke Wen to see his appearance from the screen, and he also subconsciously Standing up abruptly, looking at the scenes of Ke Xue showing his true colors twice, he didn't know what to say for a while.

"This...isn't it, it can't be, it doesn't make sense!" Ke Wen's doubts came from Ke Wen's mouth. Looking at Ke Xue who showed his true colors in the two clips, Lena's appearance couldn't help but appear in his mind. Comparing and comparing in my mind, I found that there is indeed such a similarity between the two. It is because of this similarity that Ke Wen is even more shocked. How is this possible? According to the current emotional development, it should not be like this ah.

For a while, a series of shit and emotional soap operas flashed in Ke Wen's mind, and his expression directly changed to the mobile phone of the old man in the subway, because he never thought that this kind of thing would happen to him, especially when he was still a normal person. Even more outrageous.

While Ke Wen was in a daze, Kara's voice came from behind him.

"Ke Wen."

A daily call made Ke Wen's hair stand on end, his hands were steady and he turned off the computer according to normal habits, then he turned around and looked at Kara who came to find him with breakfast.With a smile, he took Cara into his arms, poked her on the mouth, and then looked at her.

"Why are you here when you are free? Aren't everyone busy during this time?"

"No matter how busy you are, you still have to eat. I heard from Victor that you have been here for a week."

"It's not that there is nothing to eat here, and I can't do it if I don't stay. So many things have happened, and Darkseid's strength is too outrageous. It's not that I can't accept that he is so powerful, but there must be some signs. It’s just me, but there are also Jonathan Jr. and Kong Kenan, but we still lost. The one-sided defeat always made me feel like Darkseid’s previous invasion was just playing. It seems that we are not rivals, which is really outrageous, and I still can't understand how he became so strong after watching it for a week."

Scratching his head, Ke Wen was also talking about his doubts. This is also the reason why he stayed in the Titan Building for a week, but no one thought that the reason why Darkseid became stronger was not found, and he ate melons and ate him. Yes, this made Kara feel somewhat guilty.

"Then are you sure about Darkseid's new power when you performed on Apocalypse?"

"Eh...it's hard to say. Although this thing is aimed at Doomsday, it is a product of the Earth 3 universe. The Doomsday of the main universe is the most powerful. If Darkseid really crushes it with an absolute advantage If you beat them, all I can say is to stay undefeated, but it’s too difficult to win, by the way, it’s not just as simple as delivering breakfast when you come to me.”

With a guilty conscience, Ke Wen answered Kara's question seriously. He was not fishing for fish this week. It was because of his understanding that he was so unsure. If there is still water, then it is a bit of a dream to single-handedly kill the Apocalypse again and bring Damian's body back.

The release of water has beaten a group of people like this. The guy who has disrupted the situation many times and also dismantled a piece of Apocalypse by the way, must not be hung on the wall as a specimen by Darkseid.Thinking of this, Ke Wen felt uncomfortable.The change in expression was also obvious, and there was no intention of hiding it in front of Kara at all.

"Are you still blaming yourself?"

"Shouldn't I blame myself? I promised him in that illusion, but in the end, I still failed to fulfill my promise, causing him to lose his family and his son again. If you can I really want to go to Apocalypse again, but reason tells me that if I go now, I will die. But sitting here, I can’t do anything, and I am waiting to die if I am different. Huh? You came here because of this?”

Halfway through speaking, Ke Wen also noticed Kara's expression and asked back.

And Kara also lowered her head under Ke Wen's gaze. Following the angle of Kara's lowered head, the height difference was just enough for Ke Wen to see the scenery he should see. He raised his eyebrows and turned his head to look elsewhere. Kara's voice was also heard. Come.

"Karl wants you to visit Gotham, Batman has locked himself up, no one can see him, not even Alfred, Helena, Dick, he is torturing himself, you are there Blame yourself, I suddenly don't want you to go, there is no need for two people to torture each other."

"It's okay, just go when you have to. By the way, I don't have to cook my dinner tonight, and I probably don't have time to come back to eat, or you go to stay with your sister for a few days, and I have to pull him out of the cave before I can come back."

Kissed Kara on the forehead, and Ke Wen also ordered there.Kara also expressed her understanding of Ke Wen's remarks, and nodded, which can be regarded as a response to Ke Wen.It’s just that when Ke Wen left the conference room, the expression on Kara’s face calmed down, turned around, turned on the computer familiarly, tuned out the video Ke Wen had watched before, and watched Ke Xue twice showing his true colors against Da Da in the screen. Carla's expression also became strange during the clip of Kesaid.

"It's so resembling. I'm starting to feel guilty. You really don't have the ability to lie at all." Sitting there, Kara was also complaining about Ke Wen's actions just now. Although everything was normal, sometimes he acted too much. Being normal is the biggest abnormality for girls. Ke Wen shouldn't be so calm in front of these native Kamen Riders who are unfamiliar and intervened in the Darkside battle. This is the biggest problem.

While complaining about Ke Wen, Kara also manipulated the computer for a while, directly intruding into the surveillance of Ke Wen's office, and intercepted the clips of the two brothers Conan and Ke Xue who came for the interview at that time.Then he took out his mobile phone from his pocket, looked at the photo of himself, Lena and Zatanna in the mobile phone, and then looked at the screenshots of Conan and Ke Xue on the computer, standing on the Eiffel Tower in Paris, engraved with Kryptonian characters In the Kryptonian sky, I, Ke Lan and Corgi transformed into twin knights in front of Darkseid, with more interest on their faces.

"Not to mention, it's a bit similar, but mine will be one of you, most likely it will be you, but you are him, or the two of them, I want a son and a daughter." Showing a happy smile, Kara also stared at Conan's head portrait, the Kryptonian space imprinted with Kryptonian characters, and the pink armored knight who was twinned in front of Darkseid.

Ke Wen didn't know that Kara had seen through his cover-up, and even thought it deeper than himself. He only felt an inexplicable tremor when he passed through the sonic boom channel.Passing through the sonic passage, I came to Gotham City, which was in a state of ruins. I looked back at the sonic passage in confusion, and then left from this teleportation point.

In this third full-scale invasion war launched by Apocalypse against the earth, Gotham City was the most severely damaged.Under the deliberate guidance of Darkseid and the twin undead, Gotham became an isolated city under the destruction of many demon-like and destroying demons, suffering from the torture of demon-like and destroying demons in endless fireworks. Seid is in control, Gotham City has long been in ruins, and there will be no survivors.

Even now, Wayne Enterprises is taking the lead to lead the reconstruction of the city, but Ke Wen can clearly feel that it was supposed to be under the newborn Gotham City. The citizens of Gotham who have forgotten the times have regained the stagnation they had in the old Gotham.In the illusion of Desire Gotham, Ke Wen already knew that what trapped Batman at that time, besides himself, was the morbid paranoia and dependence of these Gotham citizens on the symbol of Batman.

During this month, it's not that Ke Wen didn't think about going back to Gotham to deal with the desire Gotham created by the fallen dark knight's twin undead with the help of human hearts.It’s just that after this series of things have been dealt with, when Ke Wen returns to Gotham City again to trouble the twin undead, no matter whether Desire Gotham or the twin undead are gone, Ke Wen also tried to use the desire coin to enter a The bodies of the citizens of Gotham, but there is no trace of Desire Gotham or the twin dead.

And with Ke Wen coming this time, Ke Wen has to pay attention to the mental health of these Gotham citizens. Even with Wayne Enterprises helping them rebuild their homes, it took a lot of effort to suppress that feeling, and was ready to let time and happy times overwhelm them. The old spirit washed away came up again.

On the one hand, he was worried about the citizens of Gotham. Ke Wen also came to the ruins of the destroyed Wayne Manor. At this time, the Wayne Manor had already had the outline of reconstruction, and the person in charge was rebuilding his boss' Wayne Manor according to the drawings. , Ke Wen took a look, and also came to the underground Bat Cave through the secret passage he had known before, barely retaining part of the outline.

"Master Ke Wen, why are you here?" Before entering the bat cave, the old butler Alfred's voice sounded, and then he came out from the darkness with a sad face, and the one who accompanied Alfred, And Helena with red eyes from crying.

"...You know why I'm here, Alfred."

"But I don't think you can see him. Go back. He doesn't want to see anyone now, including us." Alfred shook his head at Ke Wen, with a sad face on his face. When it comes to sadness, there is nothing like this old man. All this experience is more understandable.And Helena just walked up to Ke Wen silently, hugged Ke Wen, and sobbed silently there.

Regarding the state of Alfred and Helena, Ke Wen couldn't say anything to cheer him up. He didn't have that position, and he couldn't say these words with empathy.He just stood there and released the magic that could calm the emotions for the two people, so that the two people who had been tortured by Damian's death slowly relaxed in the wordless silence accompanied by sobs. Mindful, after resting in the room with Helena and Alfred in his arms, Ke Wen walked towards the depths of the Batcave.

Although the Batcave was basically blown up under Darkseid's previous sneak attack, Batman's placement of the safe house can definitely be called a neuropathy. One, when the entire Gotham City needed to be renovated, Batman did not leave Wayne Manor. On the contrary, he just silently led the family members into the deeper Batcave to recuperate.

Of course, not everyone is here. Like the third-generation Robin Tim Drake and the second-generation Robin Jason Todd, they chose to leave the sad place of the Batcave and use the Their own way of dealing with the trauma of Damian's death.And the others who stayed in Gotham, in the Batcave, tortured each other with this incident.

The lights were turned on, and in the central hall of the Batcave on this suite, Dick sat alone in front of the display rack of his Robin uniforms, looking at the styles of the Robin uniforms in front of him since he was a child. , the shorts at the beginning, the trousers at the later stage, the matching design, the icon, I haven’t seen it for a month, and Dick is haggard like an uncle who is approaching his forties, with an unshaven beard on his face.

"You know, I always feel like everything I experienced here was just yesterday. It's only been a while, and Luo Bing has already ranked fourth." When the lights came on, Dick knew it without turning his head. It was Ke Wen who came over and said to himself there.

"Time is such a wonderful thing, it can always confuse our memory of the past."

"Yeah, just like this kid Damian, when I first saw this poor kid, I should have been at the port with you. It really took me a lot of effort."

With his back to Ke Wen, Dick also talked about the year there.Ke Wen naturally knows what he is talking about, that is, when he first traveled to this DC multiverse with New 52 as the main body, he wore the first set of knight armor-G3 given by the passing system, and followed the tasks given by the passing system , Chasing a few mafia bosses to the port, before he could complete the task, Damian, a brat, came out of nowhere, and directly set up a set of darts and bombed his head.

Then he was still teaching himself a guy who was several years older than him in an old-fashioned tone. At that time, to Ke Wen, Damian was a bear boy. Hit crookedly.But he is the son of the orthodox Batman, and he has been trained by the most elite members of the League of Assassins since he was a child. He can beat himself, a road knight, with bare hands, so Ke Wen can only rely on G3 armor to carry it.

It wasn't until Dick showed up that he paid the price of multiple scratches all over his body, and then he hung Damian, the brat, from the street lamp with an Asian bondage.

Thinking about it now, it was really like what Dick said, as if it was just yesterday.Looking back, he can single-handedly go to Apocalypse to save people, and the father-son relationship between Dick and Batman is gradually easing, everything is moving towards a new track, and even the events that happened are not the same as before. It's the same, but Damian, still the same as in the past universe restart events, died in front of Batman, and died on the way to the new universe they needed to open up.

"Yeah, in a blink of an eye, a few years have passed."

"Yes, a few years have passed, and the change that has brought us is that we already know that we are in a cosmic cycle, and you are helping us break this cycle. This is good, but it does not mean that in the past, the universe In the cycle, Damian, who was able to come back from the dead, will become an established reality leading to a new direction this time, here?"

Turning around, Dick, who had turned himself into a decadent uncle in this month, just looked at Ke Wen, his eyes were still as sharp as before, and wanted to get an answer from Ke Wen.

As Dick said, Damian's death is not the first time, and similar incidents have happened in the past, but at that time, the will of the entire DC universe could be restarted at any time because of a major event, which means that even if Damian's death It has become an established fact, but after the universe restarts, this established fact will be overwritten, and Superman will be born again, descending to the earth and beginning to write the relevant history of the entire DC multiverse.

But this time is different. As the event of Superman returning to the ordinary takes longer, the superheroes of this generation centered on Superman will have less and less traces in the will of the universe. Ke Wen, as the second origin of the universe In other words, once Damian's death becomes an established fact, even if in the distant future, the universe restarts again, it will start with a certain time point when Ke Wen, the calendar, was born. Try again to break out of this new cycle.

Along the trajectory of this established fact, Damian will die again.

This is what Dick is worried about. Death is inevitable, but the established fact of constantly repeating his own death in the repeating cycle of the universe is too much for Damian and their Bat Family.

Ke Wen looked into Dick's eyes, opened his mouth, and wanted to give a guarantee, but he still didn't say the answer Dick wanted in the end.

"I don't know, but if we just do nothing and let time heal everything, then I still want to do something, even if it will bring about results I didn't expect."

Seeing Ke Wen's insistence, Dick didn't say anything, just sighed, and sat on the ground decadently, leaning against the display stand behind him, Damian, and Robin. He also said there: "I won't stop you from doing what you want, but don't take it for granted that he can think as much as I do. He knows these relationships better than me. Because of this, he suffers more than all of us."

As he said that, Ke Wen also followed Dick's gaze. On the edge of the central hall, a closed door stood there. Without thinking about it, he understood that this was the prison that Batman locked himself in this month. , eating and drinking, but for Batman who escaped from the illusion, everything that happened to him was too heavy and desperate, from despair to hope, and then from hope to despair, between ups and downs, Because Batman's will is as good as God's, Ke Wen can't guarantee whether the current Batman will still be in the same state as before.

Standing at the door, Ke Wen couldn't say anything, because what happened made him not confident to talk to Batman.It's no wonder that Alfred persuaded himself to leave, because he knew very well that he would have nothing to say even if he walked in front of Batman.The raised hand did not fall, and Ke Wen also gave up, and sat down cross-legged in front of the door, waiting for Batman to open the door by himself.

At the same time, in Nasino City, in Ke Xue's apartment where he was recuperating, Ke Xue also learned about some of the things that happened in the future of the third branch, including the fact that Ke Wen went to Batman at this time.

"So Damian will be resurrected?"

"Brother, why do you care so much about this topic?" Looking at Ke Xue's worried expression, Ke Lan from the future of the third branch was also very curious. She closed the little dark room.Under the condition of not transforming, Ke Ji can't do anything, but keeps making trouble there, so it's better to be locked in her body and listen to her chatting with Ke Xue.

"I just think he worked very hard. He finally changed himself and wanted to be recognized by his father, but in the end he died for his father. But you didn't stop me from dealing with Darkseid, nor did you stop Darkseid Said took away his body, does it mean that he will be resurrected."

"You know the result and you still tell me so much, but yes, with you and big brother appearing as variables, it's hard for me to say the result now, just look at it, it's not time for us to intervene."

While Ke Xue and Ke Lan were talking there, they were in the Batcave on the ground floor, in the room where Batman sealed himself off.He just sat there, and he could hear clearly the conversation between Ke Wen and Dick outside, but he didn't want to respond. He just looked at the blank paper in front of him, which was the only thing he found. Damian left something for himself.

This is a letter written by Damian to him. There is not much content in the letter, and all the content is condensed into the last paragraph.

······Father, the meaning given to me by you is different from that given by my mother. My mother gave me life and let me come into this world, but you gave me the meaning of existence.

— Your son, Damian Wayne

Reading the letter Damian left to himself over and over again, Batman's body and mind were overwhelmed by grief, and with Batman's grief, an Ω symbol loomed behind him, and outside this symbol, It is a larger, more complex and mysterious pattern, echoing the grief-stricken Batman at this time.

(End of this chapter)
