Superman

he asked hoarsely.

The bald man took two steps back and waved his hands vigorously. This guy's costume was obviously that of a drag hero who had long been outdated.

Instead of going out and being beaten up, it would be boring.

He would rather stay here and think of some other way to escape.

The man seemed satisfied with the answer, put the bunch of keys in his pocket, and walked on.

The reason why he came to the police prison was to rescue a man and a woman.

They are called marionettes and pantomime.

Of course, this is just a code name.

The drag heroes don't reveal their real names, and neither do the masked villains.

Although the man doesn't know why the Pharaoh needs each other.

But that's one of the things that saving the world has to do.

So, the man did it anyway.

"Three hours and 34 minutes left..."

He raised his hand and looked at the watch. This time represented the deadline for the nuclear bomb to be launched.

Without the restraint of Dr. Manhattan, the world will inevitably slide into the abyss.

It didn't take long for the man to find his target.

With the bargaining chip given by Pharaoh, he managed to get the two criminals who lacked integrity and compassion to follow him out of the cell.

Taking a car that had already been prepared, a group of people entered the sewer and stopped in front of a flood gate with "dangerous" written on it.

With two light knocks, the iron door opened, and the man entered first.

The rescued marionettes and pantomime followed suit.

They saw a dusty secret base, all kinds of messy parts, equipment and instruments.

"I said, are the rumors true?"

The blond woman code-named "Marionette" asked nervously.

"Rorschach committed suicide, is that true?"

This is one of the widely circulated rumors after Rorschach's diary was published.

Because the diary that shattered the pharaoh's utopia did not write about Rorschach's own experience in the end.

"White is the man behind the scenes. Why? What the hell does he want? I can't think of a more terrifying opponent. He once joked that he was so fast that he could catch a bullet and he could kill us in the snow himself. Then This is where we are going now: Antarctica. Regardless of whether I live or die in the future, I hope this world can persist until you read this diary. I will never compromise when I live, and I will not regret it or die now. complain."

This is Rorschach's last diary entry.

Some people speculated that he was killed by the Pharaoh, while others said that he had a mental breakdown and chose to commit suicide...

All in all, opinions vary.

"No."

The man replied succinctly.

Although he was wearing Rorschach's ink mask, he was not himself.

"Then the partner you mentioned is Ye Xiao?"

the marionette asked again.

She saw the night owl airship covered by dust cloth.

"No, his partner is me."

A voice came from the corner, and a tall man in a tuxedo came out.

He looks like an ancient emperor, wearing luxurious robes and embellished with gold accessories, exuding an extraordinary aura.

Holding a strange-looking, red-haired lynx in both hands, he kept stroking it like a cat.

"Pharaoh?"

The marionette recognized this legendary figure who often appeared in the news or in the newspapers.

The other party was once one of the most famous drag heroes, and later became a financial tycoon, a charity tycoon and a national think tank.

Now, it is the insane, cold-blooded executioner who slaughtered 300 million people, who is wanted all over the world, and is a notorious criminal against humanity.

Pharaoh, Adrian Witte.

"Yes, it's me."

The tall man nodded gracefully.

He appeared here, and let the second generation of Rorschach wearing the ink mask specially rescue the puppets and pantomime, in order to save the world again.

Dr. Manhattan left this planet, and then left this universe.

Adrian once believed that the blue man was the greatest threat in the world.

Now he has changed his mind, humans need a "God".

In this way, we will not repeat the destruction and start the war.

Chapter 4 Looking for God, Who Comes

"I once persuaded Ye Xiao to join in, but he has already retired and only wants to live a peaceful life with Silk Soul."

The pharaoh with a red lynx stands under a chandelier, and the light casts flying dust above his head.

"This is a ridiculous and short-sighted cognition. The world is about to be destroyed, but he still has the boring fantasy of being alone."

"Fortunately, Rorschach found me and he is willing to work for me."

Adrian's tone showed contempt for the couple Ye Xiao and Si Hun.

They are too weak to accept the harsh truth.

Without Dr. Manhattan, the Watchmen universe is inevitably going to collapse.

Greed for endless resources is one of the original sins of human beings.

The pharaoh once thought that he only needed to pour all the sewage on Dr. Manhattan to exile "God".

Then create new energy, let countries get rid of the plight of lack of resources, and solve the crisis before mankind.

But he was wrong.

Intelligent life is too complex.

Suspicion and hostility towards the same kind can also lead to war.

Once Rorschach's diary was revealed, the world was in turmoil.

But it is just a fuse, and what ignites it is human ignorance and greed.

Adrian restrained his thoughts and looked up at the marionette and mime.

This husband and wife team is a very dangerous criminal, without moral sense and conscience.

But it doesn't matter, because of those things, the Pharaoh himself didn't have one.

He can use a trick to exterminate 300 million people in New York without changing his face, just to usher in a short-lived false peace.

"Working with you, not for you."

The man in the Rorschach mask corrected.

He didn't want to make himself act like a subordinate of the Pharaoh.

The pair of Rorschach masks they were wearing were an insult.

"So, where did you hide our son?"

The marionette seemed not interested, listening to the second generation of Rorschach chatting with the Pharaoh.

She walked forward quickly, and the mime standing behind picked up a screwdriver and threw it at it.

The marionette caught it firmly, leaned towards the pharaoh, and said viciously: "Tell us right away, or you will die a terrible death."

"By the way, how much reward do you have on your head? 1000 million, or 2000 million?"

She and Mime had a son, but before the baby was born, the two were sent to prison by Dr. Manhattan for robbing a bank.

At that time, Dr. Manhattan joined the "Militia" of the drag hero organization.

He, Luo Xia, Ye Xiao, Silk Soul, Pharaoh and others are all teammates.

Later, with the changes in the international situation, Dr. Manhattan became a deterrent existence instead of nuclear weapons, staying at the military base all year round.

The son of the marionette and the mime, it was Rorschach who took their bargaining chip from the cell.

Otherwise, according to the weird temper of this couple, they will never be obedient.

The marionette pointed a screwdriver at the pharaoh's neck, as if wondering where to start.

The pantomime stood behind the second generation of Rorschach, making a motion of holding a gun with his fingers.

These two guys used to be acrobats, one is good at cutting through anything with a thin wire, the other can follow the gestures and imagine all kinds of weapons.

For example, if the pantomime shows the action of holding a gun, then as long as he pulls the trigger, Rorschach II can see his brains splatter out.

They are relatively special existences in the watcher universe where the cross-dressing heroes have no superpowers.

"Oh, I think you should ask for more, Ms. Manson."

With a calm smile on Adrian's face, he said slowly: "I am happy to pay you for joining, [-] million or [-] million, no problem."

"At the same time, the location of your son will also be attached."

"But don't threaten me again, it's extremely unwise."

Pharaoh gently pushed away the screwdriver pointed at his throat. He was looking for these two guys for other purposes.

Marionettes and pantomime, like Rorschach II, are extremely important pieces.

"Let's get to the point, after all, we don't have much time left."

Adrian put down the red lynx and clapped his palms, as if the curtain had opened, ready to perform.

"What do you want us to do? What does Rorschach mean by finding 'God'?"

asked the marionette.

Her husband, Mime, is, as his name suggests, a mute and unable to speak.

"Rorschach is right, this is indeed an operation to find God."

The corner of Pharaoh's mouth twitched slightly, and he said with a chuckle: "I assume you already know what I did in the past..."

"The whole world knows what you did!"

The marionette sneered.

The Rorschach's diary clearly records how the Pharaoh planned the disaster, created alien monsters, and then slaughtered 300 million people in New York...

This is simply an appalling and heinous crime!

"Heh, that plan took me all my life to conceive and coordinate. In order to prevent wars and end crises, all sacrifices are meaningful. But unfortunately, I failed."

Adrian was a little lost. He was supposed to replace Dr. Manhattan and become the great king of the new world after the only god on the planet left.

However, not long after Utopia was established, the peaceful world constructed by lies was instantly defeated by the dead Rorschach.

When the truth was revealed, it was like a heavy bomb falling into a calm lake, causing an uproar.

"After Rorschach's diary was leaked, I sat alone in my Antarctic castle in despair, waiting for the government to come and arrest me."

"Although I have many ways, I can avoid prison, avoid global hunting, and find a quiet place for the rest of my life."

"But I didn't, because a great king can fail, but he can't throw away his crown and return to ordinary life."

The marionette pouted, thinking that the pharaoh might be mentally ill.

If she had so much money like the other party, she would have been happy and happy long ago.

Instead of deliberately trying to fight against Dr. Manhattan, but also delusional to rule the world.
