Chapter 453 Who Is the Anti-Monitor?

Chapter 453 Anti-Monitor... Who is he? ? ?

"That... that darkness is actually countless shadow demons."

In the Pentagon, Amanda Waller stood up suddenly and stared at the screen.

She had experienced wars, superhuman wars, countless crises that threatened human safety, and many terrible things that even Batman didn't know about. She had experienced things that were enough to scare the bravest souls.

However, even she felt terrified before the dark and cold face of death itself, and what she saw in those burning eyes... was the end of everything.

On the street, countless pedestrians shouted and fled, and the soldiers raised their guns and shot at the shadow demons, but in vain.

Gotham.

Chen Tao flew in a dark red sky, his eyes sprayed red hot vision, like a sword piercing the darkness.

"Damn it."

While flying, he gave orders to Hal and Arlene Su, the actual controllers of the Green Lantern Corps: "Take your people and hold up the protective shield!"

The appearance of Shadow Demon cast a shadow on Chen Tao's heart...

The fact is: even if Night Owl took the initiative to reveal a lot of information about the Anti-Monitor to him, Chen Tao still knew very little about the Anti-Monitor.

In the comics he read in his previous life, the Anti-Monitors in different periods and major events had very different powers.

There was the Great Destroyer who almost destroyed the entire DC Universe during the "Crisis on Infinite Earths" period, and the weak period in which half of his body was broken by Prime Superboy during the "Sinestro Corps War" period, and even after the New 52 "Flashpoint" due to the restart of the timeline, he directly lost his supreme position and became a mortal named Mobius who was just enslaved by the [Anti-Life Equation].

Even in the "Darkseid War" period, he was reduced to a 50-50 fight with Darkseid, and it took a lot of effort to defeat the opponent.

According to the information provided by Night Owl, the Anti-Monitor he is facing now is exactly the mortal Mobius in the "Darkseid War" period, and can be called the weakest version of the Anti-Monitor.

But now this scale of Shadow Demon is obviously created by the strongest version of the Anti-Monitor in the "Crisis on Infinite Earths" period.

Damn Night Owl, didn't collect such important information? !

Star City.

Green Arrow fled for his life from the attack of Shadow Demon.

Despite the protection of the green barrier in the sky, the dense Shadow Demons outside the barrier are still chilling.

He rolled and jumped across the gaps between high-rise buildings.

Some Shadow Demons entered the city before the protective shield was propped up, and he is now running for his life.

He leaped down from the tall building, and the rope arrows he shot carried his body flying in the air.

He turned sideways and shot an energy explosion arrow that smashed a shadow demon.

He fell to the ground.

However, more shadow demons attacked Green Arrow and he was forced to flee again. But when he looked back in the air again, he saw with bloodshot eyes that the mother on the street was holding her child in her arms under the killing of shadow demons...

He rushed forward recklessly, but was overwhelmed by more shadow demons the next second. The rope broke and he fell, and at that moment, a green lantern ring flew into his hand...

Los Angeles.

In the city protected by the yellow barrier, Black Lightning burst out a large series of electric currents, turning countless encroaching shadow demons into flying ash. He was panting, but when he looked up, he saw more shadow demons spreading from the other side of the joint like locusts.

Atlantis.

In the prison.

Lord Orm lowered his head and grabbed the bars of the cage with both hands.

"Tell me."

He asked the Atlantean guard outside.

"What happened outside?"

He heard a loud rumbling sound under the water, which was the roar of the Atlantean cannon.

"Atlantis was invaded."

"By the landers?"

"By the common enemy of the landers and the Atlanteans, the Anti-Monitor."

Crunch, creak, creak, creak--

Under the superhuman strength of Lord Orm, even the Atlantean cage specially made for him could not stop his desperate pull.

"Take me to fight."

He told the guard.

"You... you are no longer the king of Atlantis."

"But I am still a warrior!"

The whole world is like this, and shadow demons are everywhere.

The few heroes on Earth have united, and their powerful strength is only dwarfed by their infinite courage.

Deep in the universe, the Owl spaceship.

"See, Dick. If Batman had been willing to go along with my plan, this wouldn't have happened."

Night Owl sat with Nightwing Dick Grayson. There was a small plate of snacks and drinks on the table in front of them, but Nightwing noticed that the other party had not eaten at all. This showed that Night Owl was on guard and was always communicating with him using the Night Owl robot controlled by him remotely.

Night Owl was still saying: "If Batman is willing to accept my plan, the Anti-Monitor's Shadow Demon Army will now be defeated in front of the 8 billion fully beast-like orcs, which will definitely greatly weaken the Anti-Monitor."

He noticed that Dick looked at the tragic scene of the Shadow Demons raging on the screen, and his mouth corners slightly raised.

In fact, the Shadow Demon Army has not yet been able to break through the protective shields set up by the Yellow and Green Lantern Corps in major cities on a large scale, but even if the small part of the Shadow Demons that entered the city before the protective shield was set up can already make those heroes drink a pot.

Night Owl just intercepted some images of the areas invaded by the Shadow Demons and showed them to Nightwing Dick Grayson. He didn't know what he wanted to prove, maybe just wanted to prove to Dick that Batman led him astray.

"Your plan will turn 8 billion people into beasts. Even if we ignore the casualties caused by their killing each other, I will only say one thing: this transformation is very likely irreversible. You have never thought of restoring them to normal people. They are consumables and resources to you, but they are not human beings."

"They are warriors fighting for their own survival." Night Owl said: "Their transformation can increase the probability of victory for this world."

Nightwing was silent, and then he said word by word: "Letting untrained civilians go to the battlefield is not what heroes should do."

"If the world is about to be destroyed, then there is no point in entangled in these things." Night Owl said: "When a world must struggle to survive, considering moral standards is undoubtedly a slow suicide."

"There must be other ways." Nightwing said.

"There is no other way." Night Owl said, "Either use the Red of All Living Things to transform everyone into beasts, and then let them fight the Shadow Demon, and the price is that they become bloodthirsty beasts, or let them remain helpless civilians, and then watch everyone being slaughtered by the Shadow Demon."

He said to Nightwing, "Tell me, what should you choose?"

"Batman must have other plans." Nightwing said, "He will save everyone, and no one will die today."

"Someone has died." Night Owl said.

Nightwing was unmoved and kept talking to Batman. Night Owl did not want to admit his emotions.

He continued, "Died at the hands of the Shadow Demon. If he could become a beastman, he could still perish together, but now there is no chance, no chance anymore."

Night Owl said, "Batman's moral code poisoned the world, and the world should have had a chance to escape from the clutches of the Anti-Monitor..."

Then suddenly, the monitor went black.

This made Night Owl's words stop abruptly.

He tapped a few times on the keyboard next to him, trying to switch to other surveillance screens, but it was pitch black everywhere.

"What's going on?"

He whispered to himself.

Nightwing slowly stood up from the chair.

Nightowl was still switching monitors until he switched to a monitor outside the earth.

Then... then he saw Batman standing alone in the vast starry sky, holding a bottle in each hand.

Wait, bottle?

A blue planet was quietly suspended in the bottle, looking like a light bulb shining in the bottle.

In another bottle, countless shrunken, ant-like black shadow demons were blankly looking for non-existent attack targets.

"Batman... Batman shrunk the Earth and stuffed it into a bottle." Nightwing said, "Using Brainiac's technology."

"This... This is unreasonable." Nightowl paused, then said:

"This is definitely not something that can be done in a short time. I have studied Brainiac's technology. His shrinking ray can shrink a city in an instant, but if you want to do something to a planet..."

"Batman has wanted to do that a long time ago." Then he heard Batman's Dick's brisk voice: "Batman would have anticipated the worst. He... He did it. Always."

Nightowl looked at Nightwing's profile. His bright eyes flashed with a light as bright as autumn water reflecting the stars.

And the sad thing is... this light does not belong to Nightowl.

…

…

…

“I never thought that the Wandering Earth Project would work at this time…”

Chen Tao put the Earth in the bottle into his stomach and muttered silently in his heart: “Help me, I guess Luther is going to say something like ‘You can’t protect humans in a bottle’ again. Luther hates this the most… This is also the main argument for his attack on Clark.”

“But if I let everyone out after the matter is over, I shouldn’t be scolded by him…”

As he was thinking, he took a deep breath.

Although he had put the earth into the bottle, it did not mean that the impenetrable position used by the Anti-Monitor to wrap the earth had completely disappeared. On the contrary, Chen Tao himself was still in this position, like a cricket in a huge trap.

And then...

He guessed that he would soon be able to find the source of evil.

"What a great idea."

Sure enough, as Chen Tao turned around, in the silent universe, he saw a huge planet breaking through the universe. The force field that originally only framed the earth was infinitely magnified, freeing up a large enough battlefield.

Chen Tao immediately set off and flew directly towards the huge planet in front of him.

Silver particles flowed on his body, and part of the red body characteristics of the Red Death were presented on his synchronized speed bullet. The biological position of the Kryptonian's flesh allowed him to abandon part of the speed force used to protect his body from being burned by friction, thereby using less speed force to create a faster speed.

He soon landed on the surface of the giant planet, and there, he saw...

The true form of the Anti-Monitor.

Fortunately, fortunately.

Chen Tao, who was familiar with the comics, saw at a glance that the opponent in front of him was not the Anti-Monitor during the Infinite Earth Crisis, but the Anti-Monitor during the Darkseid War, which meant that the enemy he needed to face might not be as powerful as he imagined.

"From the moment you set foot on Quad, you have sealed your fate. Today is the day of the demise of the universe."

The Anti-Monitor spoke, and to Chen Tao's surprise, he did not seem anxious or even fierce, but rather leisurely and regretful.

Chen Tao had imagined countless times the first time he and the Anti-Monitor met face to face, but he had never thought that the other party would have such a strange attitude.

"But speaking of it... your universe is really complete."

The Anti-Monitor said: "Forget about the Justice League, which is standard in every universe, but you actually have the Green Lantern Corps. Not only does it have the Green Lantern Corps, but it also has the Dark Lord, and even Superboy-Prime?"

He said: "Among all the dark multiverses I have seen, your world is considered to be the most powerful one, especially Superboy-Prime.

Among so many dark multiverses, there are only a few dark multiverses with Superboy-Prime. I have only seen two so far, and you are the second one.

You know, the Superboy-Prime in the last universe I saw with Superboy-Prime was pitifully weak. But the Superboy-Prime in your universe is so strong - um, by the way, do you know what the dark multiverse is?"

(Note: The last dark multiverse with Superboy-Prime mentioned by the Anti-Monitor here refers to the dark multiverse in "Legends of the Dark Multiverse: Infinite Crisis".

That multiverse is The dark mirror version of the DC event "Infinite Crisis", and Superboy-Prime is one of the main villains of this event. But he is so weak in the dark multiverse compared to the normal multiverse that he was killed by the blackened Blue Beetle.

Although the blackened Blue Beetle is the second generation Blue Beetle and has been enhanced at an epic level, even so, Superboy-Prime in the "Infinite Crisis" period should still be in his prime, but he died so easily...)

Chen Tao remained silent.

Things are too weird. Even the dark multiverse knows about it. Anti-Monitor knows too much. He wants to figure out - who is Anti-Monitor?
