The Death Knell

There is only a faint light in the deep cave, countless stalactites are scattered here and there, leaving strange shadows in the darkness, and many small green eyes are densely floating in the air.

In front of the huge display screen, Bliss was operating her 'Sister Eye' system, checking Su Ming's body through the final machine.

Su Ming was tied to a high-tech operating table not far away. He was unconscious at this time, and the probes were moving back and forth on his body to scan.

"His situation is unprecedented." Bliss whispered to Cindy beside her. She stopped what she was doing and leaned on the back of the bat-shaped chair to think.

Cindy held a cigarette in her mouth and looked at the data on the screen quietly. Even if she didn't know much about medicine, she could tell that this was just the body data of an ordinary man. To be more precise, this body was slightly malnourished.

But this should definitely not be the data of a super soldier like Deathstroke.

"I didn't save the wrong person." Cindy said firmly.

Bliss' face was expressionless, and the corners of her mouth turned downwards: "It's indeed true. Although I don't know how he did it, his x-metal skeleton is still there."

Cindy blew out a puff of smoke and said lightly: "He has to be cured, and he has to pay for my commission."

"I'm thinking of a way." Bliss put her fist on her chin and looked at a series of data about the skeleton: "His skull can protect the brain very well, and the energy of X metal is almost the upper limit of the universe, that is to say , his original consciousness should still be in his brain."

"Then let's wake up his consciousness first and see what his plan is." Cindy nodded and agreed with this statement. Since the brain is well preserved, let's start from here.

Bliss turned her face to the other side, her long black wavy hair swept from her shoulders, and the bat pendant on her chest also swayed.

"Dr. Palmer, what do you think?"

Except for Cindy, who was leaning on Batgirl's chair, the rest of the Legends Team were also there at this time, but they were obviously afraid of the combination of Deathstroke and Batman, so they kept a distance.

Only the tech-crazy Atom was very interested in the equipment. He got closer and closer, until he was almost touching the screen.

"Very good equipment. Is this artificial intelligence?" Lei expressed his opinion and touched the operating table enviously.

Although the Waverider also has Gideon's artificial intelligence, Batman's Sister Eye is obviously stronger than Gideon. It can even be said that the entire Earth -11 is being monitored by it, and it is compatible with all of Batman's technological creations. .

Bliss closed her eyes and pursed her lips tighter: "That's not what I asked you to say."

"Huh?" Lei looked at the eyes of the two people staring at him and scratched his head in realization: "Are you talking about that gentleman's situation? In fact, I think he may have hypnotized himself."

"Hypnosis... He can definitely do it with his ability." Bliss's eyes narrowed, not knowing what she was thinking.

The Atom obviously didn't think too much. Now that he had already spoken, he didn't mind saying more. He was not only the technical officer on the Waverider, but he also sometimes had to serve as a doctor.

"I probably know what happened. Last night, the Flash from Earth 0 came to you and told you something about the Laughing Bat, and told some of Deathstroke's plans."

Bliss nodded: "Originally, he thought that laughing wildly required preparation time, so he temporarily stayed at Harley's house in the main world and waited."

"But late yesterday, Su suddenly collided with x-metal and sent a signal to the multiverse. After research, we thought it was a request for help." Cindy continued, the smoke of the cigarette slowly rising from the cigarette between her fingers.

"Then I devised a plan to catch these troublemakers."

Bliss turned her chair and looked at Sarah, who was already immersed in the food cooked by Afu.

She had no shame at all as a prisoner, her mouth was full of oil as she ate, and she showed a happy expression.

Anyway, Batman and the others couldn't understand what they were saying. Her only tactic was to rush in and act recklessly. She never participated in the conversations between smart people.

But she still couldn't figure it out, how did Bliss know about the existence of the Waverider, and how did she come up with the idea of ​​luring them into a trap by forging small time changes?

But she also knew that even if she asked, there would only be one answer.

'Because I'm Batman! ’

Last night, Bliss showed the gap between them as a first-line superhero. She almost captured all the members of the Waverider alive by herself, and used various means to force the team to help her.

Although they were very reluctant, every time they faced Bliss's cold eyes, they all felt that they had to cooperate, otherwise something bad would happen.

Ray Palmer did not notice the embarrassment of his teammates. He pointed to the skull scan on the screen and said: "This gentleman should have been hypnotized, or hypnotized himself. Only in this way can he bypass the protective effect of the skull. On the brain.”

"He covered his original consciousness because he wanted to avoid something." Bliss said calmly, she probably had an idea.

Cindy didn't say much in this regard. As the person who responded, she knew that Su not only obscured her main consciousness, but also dug a big hole for herself to fall into.

He actually arranged a murder for himself so that Cindy could locate him.

Isn't that right? Cindy found Metropolis based on the resonance. As a result, she saw that today's newspapers were full of headlines about the murder case of a perverted reporter. She recognized his appearance and then directly robbed the prison.

Everything is clearly arranged.

She avoided individual issues: "When I went to Earth 0, I found that the whole world had changed. There were no superpowers or aliens. It was a world of ordinary people. It was too ordinary. The strongest in the city The power is actually the police.”

"Only the earth? Or the entire single universe?" Bliss raised an eyebrow.

"Only on the Earth, because there are obviously buildings and some man-made traces on their moon, but everyone on the ground turns a blind eye to it." Cindy gave the information immediately without needing to recall.

"Well... activate his brain first, and then I'll try an electric shock."

Bliss pressed the button on the console. Effects such as hypnosis can easily be broken through pain and torture, and electric shock and psychosis are the best match.

.............................

"It's really annoying..." Su Ming sat up from the final machine. Cindy helped him to the ground. Every muscle in his body was twitching: "Ordinary people's bodies are really too weak. .”

Cindy laughed beside her: "It doesn't matter, as long as our thinking ability comes back, we will still be the strongest mercenaries."

Su Ming put the clothes on the side back on her body. Cindy was right, but in this case, absolute strength is definitely not enough.

Not to mention that only one of his ten light rings was left with invisible light. Fortunately, it flickered slightly after a long time, looking like it was not working well.

The dagger coated with the Tears of Death was also seized by the police station, the strangulation disappeared, the cloak was placed in the home where Diana lived together, and the space bag disappeared. Needless to say, the equipment inside was gone.

In addition to his wisdom and martial arts, his combat effectiveness was greatly damaged.

Bliss also breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, in order to bring Deathstroke's consciousness back, she tried almost every method she could think of.

In the end, the collision of promethium metal and x-metal used to make the final machine, plus some Lazarus Fountain to activate the crazy desire for killing, was used to awaken the opponent's original consciousness.

But she knew that this must be part of the other party's plan. When he contacted Cindy, he expected that he would be sent here, and Bliss would definitely use the final machine to check him and awaken his sanity.

He had a plan.

However, Bliss is very pragmatic. The past is the past, and how to solve the next problems is the key.

As the party involved, Su's judgment is the most important. She didn't need to speak, she just stared at him with her big eyes.

Su Ming put on his clothes, moved his body, smiled and said hello to the Legends of Tomorrow team, then sat down at the dining table to eat and talk.

He is flanked by 'Heatwave' Mick Rory and one of the 'Firestorm' combiners, Jefferson.

As a team from the DCEU of the independent universe, their strength is too weak. Compared with the main universe, everyone is greatly weakened.

Take Firestorm as an example. The reason why Firestorm in the main universe is ranked as a second-tier hero is because of his ability to change the order of atoms and fly at near-light speed.

But Firestorm in the Legends of Tomorrow team can only fly at about the same speed as an airplane, and has no atomic power. In the main universe, it can only be regarded as a block level at best.

But the Waverider is currently the only reliable means of transportation, and they must be used to travel to and from the Earth in the main universe.

While eating, Su Ming thought about his experience and told several people about his experience. Of course, he covered up a lot of things and it was just an abridged version.

He returned to the DC Universe from Marvel, met with Manhattan through the Comedian's Badge, and retrieved his ten rings from him. This cannot be said.

Then, there is no more.

He was supposed to wake up from Harley's house, but when he came back to his senses, he found that he was working in a place similar to a newspaper office, with a half-written manuscript on the computer in front of him.

He knew at that time that something was wrong and the world had changed, but he didn't know if it was a dream or something wrong with the timeline.

But he felt a strange external force that began to modify his body, as if taking away his abilities and changing his thoughts at the same time. Strange memories impacted the x metal with menacing force.

He calculated and estimated how long he could persist in resisting, but this time would certainly not be enough to find out the truth, so he planned to leave a back-up.

There is no great danger, he will just become an ordinary person, but this process must be reversible, and there is no need for Su Ming to run away.

He immediately checked his belongings and found a photo of himself and Diana, followed by identification, and a few banknotes.

So he judged his identity, a poor paparazzi reporter, because there was a mosaic of banana-eating photos on the monitor in front of him.

Instead of being brainwashed by an unknown being, he devised a plan to hypnotize himself.

But this couldn't solve the problem. After reading some news, he knew that there were no heroes in the main world. He needed help from people in other universes, and of course he needed to contact Cindy.

So he went to the top of the daily newspaper and smashed the bones of his hands together. The strangulation could only be used to fill the missing parts of the body, which seemed to have lost consciousness.

After returning to the office, he knew that he had to make a big splash to let Cindy find him faster.
