Chapter 421 Awakening
Within minutes of this mental storm that began in the Manhattan underground base, the memories of North America and even the world were quietly rewritten.
Everyone still remembers the earth-shattering battle between Superman and the zombie Sentinels in New York, and how Superman was injured and fell into a coma.
However, the story of Superman being infected with the zombie virus and his subsequent treatment has been distorted into another version.
"You're awake!"
Zhang Parker was shaken awake by Yamashiro Takuya: "This was truly an extremely dangerous battle!"
"what?"
Zhang Parker woke up in the mech cockpit somewhat confused. He thought about it and realized that he seemed to have been affected by the aftershocks of the battle at the last moment, which was why he had been unconscious for so long.
Zhang Parker rubbed his temples, his head throbbing with pain. He felt something was wrong, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
never mind-
"How about Superman?"
The aftershocks of the explosion were enough to stun him; he couldn't even imagine what would happen to Superman, who was at the epicenter of the blast.
"Completely amazing!" Takuya Yamashiro gave a thumbs up: "Batman retrieved Superman from outer space and said he'll wake up soon!"
Even Toei's Spider-Man, who has seen all sorts of monsters and aliens, has to admit that when it comes to durability, Superman is truly in a class of his own.
If it weren't for him catching skills with his face every day, this world would probably have been destroyed long ago.
Reed, who had just visited "Superman," snapped out of his daze and frowned.
Superman is fine, but why does he feel like something's wrong?
Johnny Devil, upon learning that Superman was unharmed, breathed a sigh of relief: "My goodness—at least we don't have to worry about a second zombie Sentinel!"
Yes, the Sentinel. Reed remembered what the Sentinel had told him before. Where did the Sentinel go?
Inside Stark Tower, Tony Stark, clutching a bottle of liquor and reeking of alcohol, slowly opened his eyes. His first words upon waking were: "Damn Batman!"
-
Rather than saying he "woke up," it would be more accurate to say he "didn't sleep at all."
The mental storm unleashed by the Mind Stone is indeed powerful; Iron Man might have been caught off guard and suffered from it without even realizing it.
But now Tony's core contains Doctor Doom, who uses magic to conceal his soul, transforming his appearance into his inner self, temporarily avoiding the brunt of the attack, thus preventing both the manipulation of the gems and the erasure of his memories.
"That's some damn Batman!"
Having unscathed Batman's ambush and psychological storm, and retaining his memories, Tony repeated his words: "There are actually people who call me crazy. They really need to see this Batman for themselves!"
Although he was just playing a role-playing game, Tony still had to admit that alcoholism was indeed a bad habit.
The magic ring spun in his hand, and the effects of the alcohol wore off in an instant.
"It's time to get to work."
Thinking this, Tony woke up the AI assistant Edith. After scanning the operation log, his pupils instantly widened in shock. Edith's operation log had about an hour of blank space.
Tony, in his disguised form, then realized that he might have missed a crucial detail because he had acted so convincingly.
It's not just the human brain that can record memories; computers can record information too. Batman's cautious nature naturally makes him extra careful in this regard.
So, is there a possibility that—
Tony switched AI templates, from Edith to Jarvis: "Has anything unusual happened lately?"
In the sea of data, the real Tony is lying unkempt in the clouds, enjoying the illusory yet readily available fine wine.
"Dude," Tony said, quickly downing his glass of tequila in response to Doctor Doom's questioning, "you're the one out there, why are you asking me?"
"Besides, why did you ask that? Let me guess—"
From the perspective of the real Tony, the virtual world also has its advantages; at least you won't get drunk drinking there: "It's only been less than a day, and you've already had enough of the real world's suffering? Are you ready for me, the real Iron Man, to personally take over?"
"He knows, doesn't he?"
Doctor Doom immediately pointed out the flaw in Tony's words: "Jarvis doesn't have internet access, so you shouldn't know how much time has passed inside."
Unless Tony is a ruthless person who can never relax and calculate time second by second in his mind.
Doctor Doom knew that he was clearly not the kind of person who could be so ruthless in the past.
Trapped within Jarvis's algorithm, Tony, upon hearing Doctor Doom's revelation, was filled with remorse: "Damn it, drinking really does make things worse!"
In reality, he didn't care at all; whether he sold the flaw or not was irrelevant. Since Doctor Doom had asked, he naturally already had the answer in his heart.
"So, what are you planning to do next?" Tony winked at Doctor Doom outside. "Ready to be ganged up on by all of us?"
"What am I going to do? Hmph!"
After an initial panic, Doctor Doom, now possessing Tony's body, quickly calmed down. Having pieced together the events, he sneered, "Batman didn't tell you everything, did he?"
You make one lie, and then you have to use thousands of lies to cover it up. This applies not only to Doctor Doom.
He is no longer the only one hiding a secret.
Rather than asking what Doctor Doom is planning to do, it's more accurate to ask what Batman is planning to do next.
Above New York City, Batman, shrouded in the phantom of a bat formed by yellow light, lies in silence.
Yellow in the emotional spectrum represents emotions and fear.
Whether it's the green light ring or the yellow light ring, the form of power is ever-changing, and Batman always manages to use it effectively.
Fear is even more fitting for Batman than green light.
Fear is Batman's specialty; all his activities against criminals in Gotham during the first half of his life were, without exception, using fear as a weapon.
The moment the Bat-Signal illuminates the clouds above Gotham, every criminal trembles with fear.
Unfortunately, with that accident involving Superman, those days have long since become a distant memory.
忆。
When Clark Kent went mad, he was extremely confident that he could kill him immediately.
If they had revealed their hand from the beginning and done everything they could, perhaps the other members of the Justice League wouldn't have had to die.
Even though Superman was beyond redemption at that time and was gradually sinking into the abyss, Batman still held back.
His motivation for doing all this now stems solely from the fear of not doing what he should have done in time.
Even now, Batman is still pondering whether, when he uses the Yellow Lantern Ring, he is driven by fear or fear is driving him.
Erasing everyone's memories of Superman's weaknesses, while extreme, is absolutely necessary to prevent the loss of another Superman.
Batman will not regret this move.
But what troubled him was another problem: he secretly accessed every AI core involved and simultaneously erased the AIs' memories.
But this led him to unexpectedly discover a shocking secret about Iron Man.
This secret is so important, but Batman doesn't know how to reveal it to Superman or anyone else.
Meanwhile, Joey woke up inside the secret base.
Unfortunately, there was no unfamiliar ceiling to see when I opened my eyes. Apart from the prison cells, all the rooms in the underground base were extremely makeshift.
There is no ceiling, only natural stone walls surrounding your head.
Batman's erased memories are basically the events that occurred between the explosion and Superman waking up.
Whether it's a mental storm or memory erasure, what does all of this have to do with Joey, who was blown to bits by the zombie Sentinel's final self-destruction?
Although the last thing Joey remembered was the terrifying energy burst from the zombie sentinel before her, upon waking up, she felt that she had just had a good dream and then slept very comfortably.
As for what he dreamed about, he forgot it as soon as he woke up. He only remembered that he had a nice dream, which was definitely not one of the horrible scenes from the Doomsday Gene.
Joey, who had no idea how long she had been resting, was about to get up when she found that her left arm was firmly pinned to the bed by a heavy object.
Turning his head, he saw Xinghuo lying in his arms, curling the ends of her orange-red hair with her fingers and grinning at him.
"I knew you'd be alright!"
Seeing that Joey had woken up, Xinghuo, who had been moving very quietly, no longer held back. She rolled over and climbed onto Joey's waist, bent down and hugged her tightly, kissing her: "I can't even imagine what it would be like to lose you!"
Joey, who had just woken up, responded just as enthusiastically, rekindling the passion that Xinghuo and the two had not shared for a long time.
