Chapter 101 The Spirit of Existence
The fact that Spark was hiding some secrets didn't make Joey feel uncomfortable; everyone has their own secrets.
If everyone were like Batman, constantly focusing on these kinds of things, hiding their own secrets while spying on others' secrets, they would eventually become psychopaths.
However, he was very curious about what kind of big secret it was that would keep Starfire from getting angry when he learned that Joey was planning to defect to Krypton.
Xinghuo's mental state has been very strange ever since she recovered from her serious injuries, although her mental state before could not be considered normal either.
After personally conducting a thorough yet accessible exploration and search, Joey did indeed discover the enormous secret hidden within Starfire.
She was actually dead when she was punched through the chest during her previous fight with another "Superman".
It wasn't a recovery from near death as Joey thought; the Tamarans had never had such a powerful physique. At that time, Starfire had already entered the realm of the dead.
The land of death was silent and dark. Before Xinghuo could even glimpse a corner of it, he was pulled back by a pure white light.
The light was warm and pure, as gentle as a warm breeze brushing against the depths of Xinghuo's soul, yet powerful enough to reverse life and death, bringing Xinghuo, whose soul had already left his body, back to life.
It is the boundless light that can create life.
Its name is... "What's it called?"
Joey asked the question urgently, even stopping what he was doing.
Even for him, the ability to bring the dead back to life held a fatal attraction.
"Hmm~"
Xinghuo noticed Joey's slackness, so she simply changed to a more comfortable position. She turned to face Joey, hooked her legs around his waist, and whispered in his ear:
"If you want to know, you'll have to work a little harder~"
Batman is working with the new Cyborg to debug the surveillance sensor system on the Watchtower space station.
This monitoring and sensing system is the origin of the name "Watchtower" for this space station.
Another universe's Justice League once used this system, mounted on a space station, to monitor various emergencies on Earth and throughout the solar system, so as to send support and resolve crises at any time.
If the space station were still in outer orbit as before, monitoring all information about the entire solar system would be a piece of cake.
However, the space station is still deep underground in Gotham City, and this entire sensor matrix designed for the space environment is not suitable for underground conditions.
Considering that for the incoming Kryptonians, this thing would be nothing more than a target in space.
With Batman's consent, Cyborg carried out emergency repairs on the sensor system, allowing the Watchtower's various functions, which had been damaged during its previous world travels, to resume normal operation in the deep rock and soil thousands of meters below the surface.
This is the system's first time going live.
Batman skillfully used his administrator privileges to turn on all the sensors in the entire watchtower at full power, and now he could finally extend his vision to every corner of the globe once again.
Soon, he discovered an anomaly, a wavy mark on a global map, from a geological hazard detector.
Batman thinks the sensors might still not be adapted to the correct mode and frequency:
Why do magnitude 4 earthquakes occur in the Arctic?
The probability of earthquakes occurring in the North and South Poles is infinitely close to zero, especially in the Arctic, which has no exposed continental shelf and is entirely covered by ice.
Even if there is intense crustal movement beneath the Arctic, the mechanical energy waves generated would be absorbed by the thick ice layer. It is clearly not right for an earthquake of magnitude 5 or higher to occur in such a place.
"The sensor system has completed its third self-test; this is not a sensor problem."
Cyborg, who had just finished repairing the system, was retracting the various cables protruding from his new body from the control panel. He had seen Batman try to clone a new body for Hawkgirl, so he followed suit and created a body for himself that was even better than his destroyed original body.
At this moment, he has returned to his original half-human, half-machine form, and the state where the high-speed processor is affected by the various emotional hormones secreted by his flesh and blood.
This feeling of chaos is just wonderful.
Otherwise, Cyborg wouldn't be in this awkward situation feeling so embarrassed for someone else.
"Yes, of course. There's no problem in the Arctic either. It's just a sensor malfunction."
Batman glanced sideways at Cyborg, giving him the look of someone looking at an idiot.
"So you mean that the abnormal seismic readings might be due to a sensor malfunction, but it's unlikely that a sensor malfunction would cause the abnormal readings?"
Cyborg inwardly marveled at how worthy he was of the younger Batman, so different from the old Batman, perfectly summarizing the central idea of his two sentences:
"In short, let's not delve any further into the earthquake!"
Cyborg, controlling the console, instantly blocked the earthquake readings, which were already approaching magnitude five, at the speed of light:
"No one knows more about electronic devices than me—this is a system malfunction."
If saving someone from social death counts as saving a life, then Superman and the female Green Lantern clearly owe Cyborg two lives.
Cyborg shouldn't have known the cause of the earthquake, and Superman's Lonely Fortress is also a product of Kryptonian technology, theoretically capable of shielding against external detection.
However, the premise of this theory is that two people can turn off their uniformly distributed communication devices before doing something they like.
That way, at least Steelbone's old, embarrassing problem won't recur on the spot.
The communicator can be automatically activated when it detects that the wearer's vital signs are rapidly decreasing due to injury or rapidly increasing when entering combat.
Fortunately, as the administrator of the communication network, Steelbone forcibly disconnected the two miniature communication terminals located in the Arctic before any of this happened.
Otherwise, if Shazam heard this, it would severely damage the child's physical and mental health.
When Xinghuo was first resurrected, she only felt her consciousness being enveloped in a dazzling white light, and she was reborn as soon as she opened her eyes.
As she left the desolate realm of death and returned to the mortal world, she heard only this ethereal phrase echoing within her soul:
[Kolianda from Tamaran—Reborn!]
Weakened by the decay of the entire universe, it hides in a dimensional rift deep within the Earth to regain its strength.
It is the equation of life, the continuation of the light of creation, the will, essence, and primordial light of the universe.
He is connected to all life in the universe.
He is the spirit of existence.
