I want to have a date with Superman

Chapter 1618 The Law of Time in the DC Universe

There are fish in the river, and fish are the life in the water.

The river of time is like a big river, and there is also time life in it.

Time life does not have to be born in the river of time.

They can be born in the material universe, but awaken the characteristics of time life.

This feature is not limited to time travel.

People who can freely enter and exit the river of time and travel through different histories at will are of course time beings, and they are also very powerful time beings.

However, those who travel through time with the help of artifacts and are not subject to the backlash of time are also time beings.

The two time beings most closely related to the Justice League, the Golden Pioneer and the Time Master, are typical examples of time travel with the help of technological equipment.

The Golden Pioneer and the Golden Glider have similar names, but they are two completely different people.

Golden Glider is the sister of Captain Cold, the head of the rogue gang.

The Golden Pioneer came from Gotham in the 25th century. He stole the time-travel machine collected by the Justice League from the museum and came to the 21st century. He joined the Justice League and became good friends with Blue Beetle.

Time Master Rip Hunter is a "Time Master".

Many people who relied on time travel machines to become time beings jointly formed an organization called the "Lords of Time", and they called themselves the "Lords of Time".

Rip Hunter, Golden Pioneer, and even many Time Lords have almost no superpowers and cannot physically cross the river of time, but they are still time beings.

The key to defining aquatic animals is that they cannot drown in water and can survive in water.

The core characteristics of time life are similar: they will not suffer time backlash in the process of traveling through time.

Backlash includes but is not limited to being directly erased like a bubble and losing memory.

If a modern person travels into the future, whatever he does may change history.

But history has inertia, and the river of time has inertia.

It is often said that the wheel of history rolls forward and the trend of the times is mighty, changing history and time like a mantis trying to control a cart.

Time life does not change history, but blends into history and creates history. It is equivalent to hitching a ride on the historical carriage and changing the direction of history from the steering wheel instead of twisting the wheel with the arms of a mantis.

Rip Hunter and Golden Vanguard are examples.

Today's earth is in the 21st century, and Rip Hunter was born at the end of the 21st century, barely belonging to the future.

As an adult, he joined the Council of Time Lords, returned to the 21st century, became a hero, and left a time-travel ball in the Justice League.

Three hundred years later, in the 25th century, the Golden Pioneer stole the time-travel ball from the Justice League's history museum and returned to the 21st century to join the Justice League and become a glorious superhero.

After becoming a superhero, Golden Pioneer gained fame and invitations, participated in variety shows, filmed commercials, received a sum of money and became a small millionaire.

Then, he used the technology and knowledge from the 25th century to become a billionaire from a small fortune.

As long as he has money, he will have women. After decades of wandering, after retiring from Zhenglian, he found a young, beautiful and honest girl and gave birth to a baby, and that baby was Rip Hunter!

Rip Hunter came of age, joined the Council of Time Lords, and brought the time travel machine to the Justice League in the 21st century. In the 25th century, the Golden Pioneer got it

If it were an ordinary person who dared to travel to the 21st century where Harley exists, he would turn into ashes and disappear the moment he landed.

But not only did Rip Hunter and the Golden Pioneer survive, they were also very promiscuous. They created a new timeline on their own and perfectly integrated it into the river of time. Except for Harley's awareness, there was almost no adverse impact on the world.

This is the characteristic of time life, which avoids the backlash of time travel and instead creates a new timeline.

The superhero legion of the 31st century often travels to the 21st world, but they are not time beings because they will lose their memory.

Forget the history seen in the 31st century, and even forget your own identity.

Time life is already very powerful and can be immune to the backlash of time travel.

But the name "Lord of Time" sounds awesome, but it is just a third-rate small sect at the end of the River of Time.

It is roughly equivalent to the "Five Tigers Cutting Swords" in Jin Yong's martial arts world.

Even more advanced than the Lord of Time are the Time Travelers and the "Time Wild Gods" who are not recognized by the Lord of Time.

They are equivalent to "time masters" who only develop their own potential without resorting to technological means.

The Five Tigers' Door-Breaking Sword only has skills, but no brilliant internal skills or mental methods.

The time mage and the gods have their own great power, which is equivalent to the six major sects in Jin Yong's martial arts.

Above the six major sects, there are also stronger "linear people".

If the six major sects are considered practitioners, then the linear people are the innate gods.

Not only are they immune to the backlash of time travel, they also control immense power over the river of time.

In Zero Hour Crisis, the Justice League also dealt with a linear being named the Treader.

Later, the "Linear Group", the lair of the linear people, was completely devoured by the blackened War Eagle, Cunmo.

Cunmo became the third most powerful being on the River of Time. He controlled the cracks of entropy to swallow up the entire River of Time.

Those who are stronger than linear groups and Cunmo are time trappers.

Everything in this world has an end.

The river of time is not an infinitely long straight line. It has a starting point and an end point.

The hand of creation opens time and place, and the Time Trap guards the place where time ends.

Being able to stand side by side with the hand of creation on the river of time shows how powerful the Time Trap is.

If we say that the linear person is the patrolling yaksha in the river, the time-trapped person is the dragon king of the river, the incarnation of the master of time.

The main content of the first part of Zero Time Crisis is that the fallen Hal Jordan hunts down and devours the Time Trappers, and the fallen War Eagle hunts down and devours the Linear Man.

The eldest brother eats the fat meat, and the younger brother gnaws the bones.

Well, speaking of which, the earthlings are still cruel.

Just two mortal heroes, just turned black and fell, and wiped out the Niubi Hongbo "River of Time God System" (ps).

The Zero Hour Crisis is over, the mother river of time has been restarted, and the second generation of time trappers and linear groups have reappeared in the world in the restart.

But the time trappers guarding the end of the river of time at this time are not the second generation.

The change occurred at the end of the "Multiverse Contest" in the Earth-51 universe.

Superboy Prime seems to have a destiny of "traveling randomly".

In his home universe, he met an old Superman who randomly traveled through time.

In Crisis on Infinite Earths, while escaping from the antimatter energy storm, he randomly traveled to the underworld.

During the battle between the Yellow and Green Legions, he received a Nine-Yin White Bone Finger in the eye from Harley, and was pulled into the Cemetery of Gods. After coming out, he randomly traveled to Earth-3.

In the battle for supremacy in the multiverse, he and the Emperor had an internal conflict, tore up the Emperor's armor, and traveled again in the energy explosion of the quantum dimension.

This time he randomly crossed into the river of time in the main universe and drifted towards the end of time.

"Hey, you've already been here once, why are you here again?"

Seeing Super Chao floating towards him like a floating corpse, Time Trap sighed deeply, his tone full of exhaustion, vicissitudes and helplessness.

His whole body was covered in an eggplant red cloak, with his exposed hands and feet wrapped in a thick layer of cloth.

"I'm obviously already here, why can you still come here?"

After sighing for a while, a trace of doubt and an inexplicable impulse arose in the mind of the time trapper.

"I have come over and become a new time trapper. If you follow the original trajectory and arrive at the end of time, once you come into contact with me, we will all disappear completely."

He stared at the unconscious Superboy floating in the mother river of time, and his rusty super brain began to operate at full capacity.

Countless instincts and wisdom belonging to those trapped in time flashed in his mind.

"Time beings traveling through time will not be devoured, but will create new timelines and merge into the river of time.

But this process is not the creation of history as the Lords of Time and Linear Man ants think.

I am the greatest time god king - the time trapper. I hold the ultimate secret of the river of time, and I know the reason.

Their time-traveling behavior and the new timeline they created are actually restoring history to its original appearance, rather than changing history.

As long as people are in the multiverse, destiny is above all else.

There is destiny in the material world, and there is destiny in the river of time.

It is actually destiny that time and life travel through time and merge into old history and create new history.

Like Golden Pioneer and Rip Hunter.

First there was the seemingly paradoxical fate of 'the golden pioneer of the 25th century giving birth to Rip Hunter of the 21st century', and then the golden pioneer traveled through time along the path of destiny and made the destiny a reality.

Therefore, it is my fate that he drifts towards the end of time again.

Either he successfully floats here, meets me, and then we disappear. No, I don’t want to die, I can’t disappear.

He will definitely not succeed in floating here, and I will send him away. Is this an arrangement of fate?

Simply sending me away can only prevent my demise. It does not change the current result and is meaningless.

So where will I send him as fate dictates? "

Thinking of this, Time Trap had a sudden realization: Here was his chance to change his current miserable situation.

The Time Trap is very powerful, but it is the gatekeeper placed by the Lord of Time at the end of time. He will always be trapped in the end of time and cannot escape.

This is not what he wants.

As for the great power of Time Trap, he doesn't care at all, he himself has stronger and greater power.

"So, where is his destiny?"

The time trapper operates the super brain and activates the time trapper's talent of observing the river of time. His eyes look back from the end of time.

"Hey, the 31st century is shrouded in an unknown fog, and I can't see through it. What's the reason?"

The trapped ones are ready to make a move.

He had a feeling that there was something he desperately needed in the 31st century.

Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated, stretched out his hand, and pushed forward gently. Super Chao, who had drifted to the year 1 million AD, was pushed back quickly by an invisible force.

100,000 AD, 100th century AD, 50th century AD, 31st century AD.

"Boo~~~" Supreme Superboy fell into AD 3022.

It’s 5:13 in the morning in the small town of Smallville.

The home of farmers Jonathan and Martha (ps).

On the counter next to the dining table, a router-style box projects a one-meter-diameter light ball in the air. There is a lifelike holographic projection in the light ball.

"This is Daily Planet TV's "Morning News." I am the host Jane Kent. According to the census report released last week, aliens account for more than 20% of the Earth's residents.

With the increase in alien immigrants, the proportion of alien crimes has also increased significantly.

This has led to more indigenous people beginning to hate alien residents, and the number of xenophobic cases is increasing day by day.

The Earth Government and the Interstellar Federation will hold a meeting in Metropolis this morning to discuss solutions."

While chewing the sausage, Jonathan cursed with an angry expression and a slurred mouth: "Idiot, the solution cannot be discussed, just like the nigger problem a thousand years ago.

The alien scum must be stuffed into a container, thrown into a rocket, and shot back into space.

Then kill all the fish that slipped through the net and bury them in a random piece of land. "

"My dear, you also have black blood, and now the pure white people have completely disappeared." Martha reminded her while she was busy at the stove.

"I have done a genetic test, and at least 65% of them are white people, and they are already the whitest people in the world." Jonathan wiped the oil from his mouth and lamented: "Maybe in another thousand years, in the 41st century, my Future generations will be proud of having 65% pure human genes in their bodies, how sad!”

"We don't have children yet. I'm already forty-five years old. Maybe I have no chance at all." Martha said with a gloomy expression.

Jonathan immediately held her hand and said softly: "You have also visited the 'Superman Museum' in town. Maybe we can pick up a strong, beautiful and good baby like Martha and Jonathan a thousand years ago."

"But you hate aliens," Martha said.

"I mean human babies."

"Boom -" As soon as he finished speaking, a sonic boom sounded from the sky, the strong wind made the glass windows rattle, and a hole was smashed into the roof.

"Damn alien guy, do you think Lao Qiao's family doesn't have big guns?"

Jonathan jumped off the chair, ran to the bedroom, and took out an "energy block rifle" one meter long and as thick as a bowl.

"Don't be impulsive. We don't know who he is or even what fell." Martha quickly went to pull him.

"No, I'm very sure." Jonathan raised his right hand, pointed at the watch-style personal terminal, and said: "My Paradise Mountain 1012 Promax watch has a genetic testing function.

If an alien gene appears nearby, it will beep, as it was beeping just now. "

"But it is illegal to kill people casually." Martha advised.

"Those who illegally break into private homes are not protected by the law. Otherwise, what's the point of buying this big gun?"

Jonathan chuckled and said: "It is our ancestral family law in America to protect yourself with a gun, and even the Earth government cannot change it."

Martha couldn't resist, so she could only follow him out of the house to look for the fallen object.

There is a 100-meter-long fall mark on the ground.

At the end of the fall point is a huge "crater".

"Beep, beep, beep," Jonathan's watch beeped again.

"This is Lao Qiao's farm. Go to hell, you alien bastard!" He pulled the trigger without hesitation.

"BOOOM!"

The energy rays as thick as a bowl fell on the bottom of the pit, producing an effect similar to the explosion of a space bomb.

This is the rifle of the 31st century, and you can even participate in Star Wars with it.

"You are looking for death!" A naked strong man slowly floated up in the scorching flames.

"Superman?" Jonathan and Martha's eyes widened in shock.

There is a bright red S scar on his chest, and his face looks very similar to Superman from the Superman Museum.

"If you answer correctly, you will be rewarded with a painless burp."

"Stab-"

Thermonuclear rays shot out of Superboy-Prime's eyes, burning Jonathan and Martha to ashes.

31st century Metropolis, headquarters of the Legion of Super-Heroes.

"After killing Jonathan and Martha, Superboy went to the center of the town, destroyed the 'Superman Museum' and massacred hundreds of townspeople."

Brainiac 5 sighed: "He doesn't look like a superman at all now, he has no psychological burden on killing people, and he even has a look of pleasure on his face.

I remember Crisis on Infinite Earths when he was a shy and gentle teenage hero. "

Dachao smiled bitterly and said, "I don't understand why he has changed so much.

Alas, let’s not talk about him anymore.

You said before that Superboy is only a small part of the reason. I have a more important mission. What mission? "

Originally, Harley did not support him coming to the 31st century.

She recommends Diana or Aquaman to come and help.

They have thick-skinned powers that can help contain and stop Superboy, and the Legion of Superheroes themselves are not weak, so it is not difficult to take him down.

Brainiac 5, however, insisted that Da Chao come to the 31st century. He said that there was a machine related to the restart of the fifth world, which must be handed over to Da Chao, and only Da Chao.

"Dachao, do you believe me?" Brainiac 5 asked.

"No need to ask, if I don't trust you, why would I come to the 31st century at this time?" Da Chao said.

"If you believe me, don't ask me yet. I will tell you everything after I deal with Superboy and the moment before you leave."

After a pause, he added: "For safety."

Dachao became more and more curious about his secret, but he didn't ask any more questions. He just said, "Where is Superboy? Let's go find him now."

"Don't worry, let me introduce you to the situation."

Brainiac 5 turned on the holographic projection and displayed character graphics in front of Da Chao.

“In the 31st century, there are legions of superheroes and legions of supervillains.

They were arrested by us before and were all imprisoned in the Galaxy Prison.

It's the tightest, toughest prison cell in the universe, dedicated to housing notorious super villains.

Now Superboy has captured the galactic prison and freed all the villains.

He became their king."

Brainiac 5 knows that Superman has super eyesight and a super brain, and plays the slideshow very quickly. After the words in his mouth are finished, the information about hundreds of villains is also played.

Dachao said in a deep voice: "These villains are very powerful and cruel. Let them stay outside for a moment longer. By the way, where are they now and what is their purpose?"

"In addition to destroying the earth, what other goal can unite them all?" Brainiac 5 said with a bitter smile.

"However, we can deal with them. You have other tasks."

Brainiac 5 raised his head and looked out the window, closed his mouth, used his mental power to connect to Superboy's consciousness, and said: "According to my calculations and simulations of Superboy's falling trajectory, he was thrown from the river of time. To the 31st century.”

"You mean, there's someone behind the scenes?"

Superboy's expression remained unchanged, but his heart sank. "The reason why Superboy traveled across time is related to a war for the hegemony of the multiverse."

He quickly recounted the story between the Emperor and Mandrake, and said: "At that time, Superboy was led to Universe 51 by revelation, and the revelation was a conspiracy between the monitors and the gods.

Just a few days ago, Jirowara, who was supposed to be the last watcher, was murdered by the second Mandrak.

Harley speculates that there is still a watcher alive. Is he up to something? "

During Da Chao's narration, Brainiac 5 was shocked at first, and then thoughtful.

Finally, he looked at Da Chao with strange eyes and said: "I didn't expect that the battle over the restart of the fifth world would be so fierce. However, the matter between Thinking Superman and Taixu also solved a few of my questions."

"What doubts are there? Is there really a monitor standing behind Superboy?" Da Chao said.

Brainiac 5 shook his head and said: "My question is related to your other important mission, that secret. I will confess everything to you before you leave.

Now I am not sure who is behind Xiao Chao, but I am sure that there must be someone behind Xiao Chao.

I asked you to come to the 31st century for help, mainly to deal with that black man.

He can travel through time and control time. He should be a powerful time being, maybe even a linear person, or a stronger being. "

Dachao hesitated and said: "When it comes to fighting the River of Time, Neptune is more experienced than me."

Brainiac 5 said with certainty: "No, you are much better than Aquaman. You can adapt to any environment. There is no difference between being in the river of time and outer space.

When Neptune fell into the river of time, his eyesight went dark, and he couldn't even see the time beings that were so close at hand. How could he fight? "

"I'm not as confident as you." Dachao smiled bitterly.

"Remember Dream Girl?"

Da Chao nodded and said: "She predicted the doomsday virus in Val."

"By the way, you don't know about Val and Oona, right?"

He spoke with a heavy heart about Val and Oona's ending, and the world destroyed by the apocalyptic virus.

"Alas, Dream Girl said that Val still has a chance of survival if he stays in the 21st century." Brainiac 5 was silent for a while, then regained his energy and said: "Dream Girl's predictions have never been wrong, and I propose to invite you. She is actually the person from the 31st century. She said you can not only save the 31st century, but also save the multiverse in the 21st century."

(PS: This chapter has a lot of explanations about time and life, mainly because this setting is the basis of the following plot.

It is said that the DC setting is confusing, but in fact its confusion is only reflected in the publications of different authors.

If it is the same author or the same major event, the setting may not be as simple and rigorous as the "foundation building, golden elixir, and Yuan Ying" at a certain point, but at least there will be no big mistakes in logic.

For example, non-time beings encounter backlash after traveling through time, which is reflected in many comics and animations. The most common backlash is losing memory and becoming a blank slate.

It's just that once there are more publications, the settings begin to contradict themselves.

Time Life, Linear Man, Time Trap, Time Backlash, Destiny Above Time, this series of summaries has a certain basis in the original comics, but the larger component is the secondary design of a summary.

ps2: This is not a spoof by me, it is a DC comic. There is also a Jonathan and Martha in Smallville in the 31st century. However, the times are different, the attitude towards aliens is also different, and the ending is also different. )
