Superman from the comics: Starting with the Black Robe

Chapter 447 An Impossible Mission

Chapter 447 An Impossible Mission

This series of events has far-reaching implications and has an immense destructive impact on the entire multiverse.

If observers were to rate the events, the series of events that followed, or have already occurred, would be far more serious than the consequences of Wolverine's assassination of Ant-Man during the Age of Ultron.

While the observers fell silent, observing from the sidelines, Joey, who was spreading the antidote throughout New York City, also sensed something amiss.

The antidote has taken effect, and New York City, now thawed, has returned to its bustling state.

All of this should have been normal, but Joey, who was in the middle of it, suddenly felt that his surroundings had become much noisier.

If I had to use a metaphor, this feeling isn't as simple as "increasing the volume," but rather more like how what I usually hear as a two-channel speaker has suddenly become a four-channel speaker.

Amidst the cacophony, the first thing Joey heard was an unexpected communication: "Superman?! Batman? Can you hear me?! Our time machine is malfunctioning!"

The content of the communication did not surprise Joey, since he almost never went a day without encountering problems.

But the problem is that the sender of this communication is Cyborg, who is in another universe.

Originally, there was a layer between the two universes that could be temporarily called a "time warp bubble," which maintained the normal operation of the different time flow rates on both sides.

Originally, time was faster on Tony's side and slower on the Flashpoint universe side, which meant that Cyborg's efficiency in transmitting information or objects was almost as fast as sending a message by carrier pigeon.

The message from Steelbone appeared directly on the real-time transmission channel previously established by the Positive Links, without any transmission loss.

That can only mean one thing —

Joey looked up and saw a familiar sight beyond the atmosphere.

Beyond the atmosphere, a towering skyscraper, the apex of that ill-fated metal planet's landmark, points directly downwards, facing off against New York City's Daily News Tower.

That's the building where the Daily Planet office is located in Metropolis.

The two Earths in the universe are gradually getting closer due to the overlap and intersection of the universes themselves. At this speed, the two Earths will collide in less than a day!

In that instant, Joey's nerves were on edge, his mind filled with disbelief: "How could this be?"

He had always thought the multiverse collision crisis was only Tony's problem, so why did this have to happen now?!

#Okay, perhaps many people don't understand how the flow of time between these two worlds works, so I can explain it simply.#

No one asked him anything. While observing, the frog in the picture started talking to itself again, offering its own explanation:

#It's like two interlocking gears, one large and the other small. No one would have imagined that someone would try to pry them open from both sides simultaneously during the initial design phase.#

Although even Frogtu himself has no clue who is behind the multiverse collision, this collision doesn't seem to be orchestrated by some unseen force, but rather a man-made coincidence between the Superman and Tony universes:

#All man-made systems have a certain degree of fault tolerance, but with Superman slowing down the time in this universe while the other side is still trying to find a way to enter this universe, that spacetime system is already becoming unsustainable.

And so, that's how it all happened. #

Frog even thinks that Superman and Iron Man are like the earliest inventors on Earth, and it is very likely that they stumbled upon a clue about the mastermind behind the cosmic collision under such a "mistake".

Of course, discovering the principle behind such an event is of no use to either side now. Nearly two hundred years have passed since Nobel was almost killed by gunpowder. Has humanity really figured out a way to make an explosion rewind?

#Although I've seen it many times, this is still the scene I least want to see.#

Both sides have reasons that they cannot back down, and this development can only lead to one outcome: heroes turning against each other.

Holy crap!

Although the distance between the two Earths is still quite far, and the other side's existence cannot be seen at all without deliberate observation, this does not include Cyborg, who is stationed in the Justice League's Watchtower.

Although the watchtower is buried deep underground, it still has many sensors deployed in outer space. As soon as the time machine malfunctioned, Steelbone had already initiated a search.

The findings nearly made him fall off his chair, not to mention that he suddenly discovered that Superman and Batman, who had been offline due to being in a different universe with a different time flow, had suddenly come back online. He felt like the sky was falling and immediately called out, "Superman, Batman, can you hear me?"

"receive."

The first thing that came through was Batman's calm voice. He hadn't even had a chance to cause trouble for the imposter Starfire before he found himself suddenly connected to the Justice League's internal communications.

The communication system inside the watchtower was not designed for inter-universe communication, not to mention that the time flow rates of the two universes are vastly different, making real-time communication almost impossible.

Cyborg's voice came through the Justice League's communication channel, and before the other party could even finish speaking, Batman already knew the reason: "Is the time machine malfunctioning?"

"That's not all! We have even bigger trouble in the sky—"

"I'm up there." Already airborne between the two atmospheres, observing the two Earths drawing ever closer due to the overlap of spacetime, Joey suddenly felt a sense of unreality and unease, as if the end of the world had already arrived: "I see it, it's a collision crisis."

Upon hearing this phrase, Batman could no longer remain calm: "Are you sure???"

"Confirmed."

If he could, Joey would want everything in front of him to be an illusion, but reality is what it is.

The atmospheres of the two Earths are about to converge. From the perspective of the ground on both sides, whether from a visual point of view or from the perspective of the end of the world, this time it is a real collapse of the sky.

Joey knew the two Earths would collide and was collecting Infinity Stones to avoid the next collision, but he never expected that the other universe would be the Flashpoint universe.

Perhaps all of this was foreshadowed. When they first encountered the Black Order and Namor, they had encountered a universe in which a superhero team led by the Sun God was very similar to the Justice League.

Moreover, based on Namor's experience, the process of two universes colliding and ultimately causing the Earth to be destroyed usually occurs within eight hours.

Eight hours —

Joey mentally calculated the time.

There isn't enough time, not nearly enough time.

I am still missing the Soul Gem and the Reality Gem.

This is an almost impossible task.
