American comics: Starting with Luke the Maker

#302 - Infinity Series: Restart, The War of Time [Part 1]

"Gloves? Can we destroy it?" Clark was eager to try.

"You can try, but I don't think fate will favor us this time." John stepped aside.

"Let's do it together." Wayne looked at his surrounding companions and raised his clenched fist. The white lantern ring on his finger accumulated vast energy, and starlight-like white light floated around the ring.

The others also transformed their rings into their best energy forms, aiming at the glove.

Luther wanted to say something, but after looking at the people around him, especially Bruce Wayne, who glanced at him, he remained silent for a moment and raised the hand wearing the ring. He also wanted to test whether the glove could be damaged. Perhaps if it was damaged, he could acquire it more easily?

After a wave of attacks, the glove remained intact.

Unwilling to give up, the group used their rings to create various weapons and equipment, employing all kinds of methods. However, the glove's sturdiness exceeded their expectations. Their attacks could harm Thanos, but they couldn't destroy the glove's stability.

"Let's think of another way. It's now the carrier of all emotional spectrums. If we use the power of the spectrum to destroy it, the energy will instead be absorbed and devoured by it." Wayne took the lead in stopping the attempt.

"If we can't destroy it, we can only choose to seal it." Hal was a little unwilling. He looked at John: "Can't the lantern beasts above really be released?"

"Maybe you can wear it and then order it to release all the lantern beasts," Luther suggested from the side. "Of course, if you are willing, you can also let Doomsday wear it to avoid some bad situations."

"Seal it. It has the power to bewitch people's hearts. We can now calmly come into contact with it because the white light shields its influence. If other people know of its existence, just knowing it will turn them into its puppets, bringing us unwanted accidents. My suggestion is to seal it and throw it somewhere no one can enter, like a black hole? And arrange for people to check it regularly." John ignored Luther. In his mental perception, Luther was not a good person. He harbored hidden hostility and malice towards any non-human.

What's more, even without its user, the glove still gave him a sense of unease. After being taken off, it seemed to come alive, emitting subtle whispers with a strong seductive power. However, these were all shielded and blocked by the energy of the white light.

"Wait! I agree to seal it, but don't you think it's a waste to throw it away? If Thanos and this glove were sent by that so-called Luke, how can you be sure he won't send a second or third one? According to what the Captain said, as the so-called power of the mind and emotions spreads and accumulates, sooner or later it will establish a stable beacon with that Luke. In other words, we have only gained a temporary victory. We haven't solved the real mastermind behind the scenes!

Defeating Thanos only bought us time. This time may be hundreds of years, maybe decades, or maybe a few years, a few months. Are we just going to be so passive?" Luther raised an objection.

His words made everyone's face sink. Although harsh, Luther did state a fact. Defeating Thanos didn't mean the end of the matter, it only delayed and postponed everything.

"What do you want to say?" Clark had no goodwill towards Luther, who turned the corpses of his people into weapons, but he could control himself.

"What we lack is understanding of that Luke. Of course, that Captain may have told you some information about Luke, but this information doesn't contain anything important enough for us to defeat him. In other words, we are still unable to determine the strength of that Luke.

According to what the Captain said, this glove is Luke's creation. Studying it will help us determine which level Luke's technology is at, and how to crack and target his technology.

More importantly, it will not only help us understand Luke's technological strength, but also help our technology improve and enhance."

Of course, Luther knew Clark was dissatisfied with him, but he didn't care. His words also made everyone's heart stir.

"You want to obtain the right to study it?" Wayne directly exposed Luther's thoughts.

"It should be handed over to the smartest person among us for research. Only in this way can we avoid wasting time and quickly achieve results," Luther said frankly. Among the people present, his strength or other attributes may not be the strongest, but he firmly believed that his IQ and research ability were unique. If they were to choose one person among them to study the glove, they couldn't avoid him.

"That's not necessarily true," Wayne said calmly. "I will conduct research with you."

"Perhaps there is another method." Barry, who was on the side, also raised his hand in the mental connection with his ring and spoke. His speech immediately attracted the attention of all his companions. Being stared at by everyone, Barry scratched his head a little shyly, "I don't know if this method is good, but if necessary, I can rewind time a bit in the white light state now.

If, I mean if, I rewind time to before Thanos or the Captain arrived, and then I go find you and tell you everything. Wouldn't our preparation be more adequate?"

"Even," Barry licked his lips and continued, "Wouldn't the Captain no longer come to our world?"

"Of course, we can't guarantee that everything will happen as we think. After all, I haven't done this before, and I don't know what will happen after time rewinds, but if things really get so bad in the future that they can't be undone, this may be our only chance of survival."

"Use time to defeat the opponent?" Wayne and the others exchanged glances, lost in thought. Although Barry's idea was a bit whimsical, as he said, if things really got to the extreme, this might be the ultimate means they could use to turn the tables.

"I think it's good. Although playing with time is not good, sometimes you have to be flexible, right?" Diana agreed with Barry's suggestion. Thanos had left too deep an impression on her. That powerful strength was even more terrifying than the God of War. What's more, there was a mastermind Luke standing behind Thanos?

While everyone was discussing, they didn't notice that the gems condensed by the lantern beasts on the glove were secretly emitting obscure energy fluctuations. Energy perceptions like tentacles swept across everyone's bodies one after another, and finally landed on Doomsday, who was expressionless and not within the connection.

"Wait, what are you doing?"

Luther suddenly discovered that Doomsday had uncontrollably stepped forward and grabbed the glove. Before anyone could react, he brought it to his own hand.
