I want to have a date with Superman

Although it is a little late, I still wish everyone a happy Mid-Autumn Festival, family reunion, and everything goes well.

Sorry for not updating during the holidays!

(ps: The first half of Pharaoh’s life was very similar to Bruce’s. He was bullied in school when he was a teenager, so he went to a Chinese boxing gym to learn kung fu.

When he was young, his parents passed away, and he donated all the millions of wealth his father left to him, naked.

Then he wandered to the East alone. In XZ, China, he worked as a master, disciple, friend, and couple with a monk for several years (the male monk was a bisexual pharaoh) and learned the most authentic Zen Kung Fu.

Therefore, he should be the strongest among the Watchers outside of Manhattan, and he should be in the best condition.

His signature skill is catching bullets with his bare hands.

However, his body is not strong enough. Even if he catches the bullet, the bullet will still hurt his hand.

In addition, after Witte returned to the United States, he relied on his own wisdom to start a business from scratch and quickly became a billionaire. At his peak, his wealth was no less than Luther's.

Like Bruce, when he first saw Dr. Manhattan, he was thinking about how to deal with this big blue guy.

ps2: In order to create the alien giant octopus, Witt hired hundreds of top scientists, psychologists, screenwriters, directors, and horror novelists.

You may be wondering what the relationship between the alien giant octopus and the director and novelist is.

Pure psychic impact is neutral, with only oppression and no vicious mental trauma.

Just like in the process of stealing the power of Manhattan, Black Manhattan sent out psychic shocks over and over again, but the people around him just lay on the ground and vomited, and did not die or go crazy like the big octopus incident in 1985.

In order to increase the attack power of psychic shock, Werther asked horror film directors, novelists, and editors with wild ideas to write the most terrifying stories and plots.

Then integrate these ‘horror elements’ into psychic attacks.

In this way, when the psychic shock spread across New York City, those who were exposed to the psychic shock were mentally contaminated and crushed by the most terrifying and twisted psychic power.

It can be understood this way. Ordinary people will be scared to death after watching a horror movie. If the horror movie is transformed into a physical soul and directly allows you to feel it in your heart, the fear will be increased by more than ten thousand times.

Therefore, in the big octopus incident, some people immediately died with their faces twisted, and some people were closer to the octopus, but they only went crazy, or not even crazy, and survived with all their tails intact.

Of course, Werther is not a pervert. Well, he is a pervert, but he is not a simple murderous pervert.

He added a terrifying attribute to the psychic shock, mainly to increase the fear effect of the big octopus and make people on earth afraid. The more afraid they are, the more they pay attention to it.

ps3: When Rorschach died, Daniel and Laurie were indeed "sleeping". I personally feel that this plot in the comics is far more impactful than the ending of Zuckerberg's movie "Watchmen".

More sad, more flavorful.

When the Pharaoh reveals his plan, let them choose one of the two: the giant octopus has already appeared and killed three million people. You can choose freely. If I reveal what I did, three million people will have died in vain; if they choose to hide it for me, their deaths will be meaningful - the nuclear crisis will be resolved, the world will be united as never before, and mankind will usher in true peace.

Dr. Manhattan can see into the future and discovers that everything Pharaoh said was correct.

If they make his crimes public, not only will three million people die worthless, but a nuclear war will break out as scheduled, and human civilization will end.

After understanding this result, Dr. Manhattan immediately chose to conceal the truth for Witte.

In the comics, Daniel and Laurie are extremely unwilling, aggrieved, sad, and depressed, and they can only vent their depression through crazy "sleeps".

In the movie "Watchmen", Daniel immediately reluctantly accepted the reality and even persuaded Rorschach - this further highlighted Rorschach's greatness, but also made Daniel and Laurie a bit low.

In fact, Daniel, Laurie, and Rorschach do not want to accept this false reality, but in the face of a more cruel reality, they can only compromise sadly.

To some extent, Rorschach actually compromised.

If he deliberately compromises, report back to Pharaoh

He is not stupid either, pushing the world to destruction for the sake of unquestioned justice and truth.

But he did not compromise.

Never compromise is the spiritual symbol of Rorschach.

Rorschach chose his own ending - he would rather die than compromise with this false world.

He yelled at Dr. Manhattan who came to persuade him - the only way to stop me is to kill me.

Manhattan chased him out, not really to persuade him, but to see Rorschach off - and killed Rorschach with one finger.

Daniel and Laurie both know this outcome, but the current outcome is their own choice.

Persuasion is so empty, false and meaningless, it is not as simple as "creating love".

Also, I’m here to give Pharaoh Adrian Veidt a medal for “Best Clean-cut Villain Boss.”

In other movies and novels, the villain is always clumsy, always wasting the chance of victory at the most critical moment.

Witt's execution is outrageous.

When Rorschach and Daniel chased to the North Pole, when Doctor Manhattan arrived, and the protagonists reunited to prevent the evil from happening, the evil had already happened.

By that time, the alien octopus had already slaughtered New York City.

Note that in the last paragraph of this chapter, through Lowry's dictation, we can know that Werther has two secret bases, one in the North Pole, which contains a tachyon generator.

The other base is on a hidden island in the sea, where there are giant octopuses.

Werther uses himself as bait to attract Rorschach, Daniel, and Dr. Manhattan to the North Pole, so that the big octopus on the island can move freely.

The fact is that no one can stop Werther, because there is a time lag between him and them. By the time the heroes have overcome all kinds of difficulties and dangers, and finally meet the big boss, the big boss has already quietly taken care of the big thing of destroying the world. )
