[Super Bat] The third type of god

Cronus, the legendary second-generation god-king, the father of Zeus.

Clark had heard the name.

Arthur and Diana quickly arrived at Paradise Island according to the coordinates sent by Clark. They were taken aback when they saw Superman in a black uniform, but they tacitly did not ask why.

Hippolyta and her daughter, whom she had not seen for a long time, briefly talked about the old days. Diana told her about what happened. Cronus' wine glass pattern is exactly the same, is there any connection between them, or what is the meaning of this pattern?"

Hippolyta only said, "It's a long story."

"Can you show us the 'Mother Box'?" Clark asked.

Hippolyta agreed.

She leads the three to the fortress, telling them about the past of the old lord.

"Cronus, the father of Zeus, was also the king who overthrew his father's rule, but before he left, the first king cursed him, saying that he would also be overthrown by his own son in the future. So whenever his child was born, he would swallow him. Until the sixth child, his wife tricked him with a stone, so he survived, and this child was Zeus. Zeus also, as prophesied, When he grew up, he went back to revenge. Cronus was addicted to alcohol, so Zeus pretended to be his wine boy, and after gaining his trust, he tricked him into drinking the potion, forcing him to spit out the other five children he had eaten. Later, Zeus united with his brothers and sisters to overthrow Cronus and become the new king."

While speaking, a group of people had already arrived at the gate of the fortress where the mother box was sealed. The guarding Amazon female warrior saw Hippolyta and saluted respectfully.

"Of course Kronos will not let it go, but he has been seriously injured and his strength is not as good as before, so he used all his divine power to create an artifact for himself."

Diana asked, "Is that the cup?"

Hippolyta nodded: "Yes, he used his favorite wine glass, cut his wrist and soaked it with blood, then drank it, and prayed that the glass would lead him to find the most powerful power in the world. So he had divine power The cup chose the most valiant warrior among human beings, made a deal with him, it fulfilled the warrior's long-cherished wish, and then took away his power of faith—it feeds on the will of man."

"Cronus, who got the power of faith, was really powerful. Zeus and the others were powerless to resist, but at this time the Cyclos gave Zeus the scepter, so Zeus defeated his father again, and then exiled him to hell. This cup is also missing. Zeus regards it as the most evil thing, and the lines on it are also regarded as unknown. The mother box brought by Darkseid thousands of years ago is also full of evil, so we use it This pattern seals it."

That's why Diana in another timeline mistakenly believes that the cup is related to Apocalypse. Its lines do not represent the mother box, but the evil that the old gods think.

With the change of kingship, Zeus erased many traces of Cronus, making these details impossible to trace.

Clark looked at the legendary mother box quietly, and suddenly felt a wave of fear, which seemed to leak from the mother box, as if it was afraid.

But how is this possible?Clark wasn't sure if this was his illusion, and stared at it for a while before looking away.

"But why does it have anything to do with Bruce?"

"Because it's not just an artifact, it has its own consciousness. After thousands of years, its power has been exhausted, and it urgently needs new ones to supplement, so it took the initiative to find Bruce Wayne."

To some extent, even though Bruce is just an ordinary human being, he is as powerful as a god.His will and his belief are enough to make this artifact coveted.

Clark got it all.

"And Bruce just had a knot in his heart, he is the most suitable candidate." Clark said, "I died at the hands of Doomsday, he was guilty, and wanted to go back to the past to prevent me from being killed, so Cup unilaterally made a deal with him. deal."

Diana asked, "Did the cup send him back five years?"

"No." To everyone's surprise, Hippolyta denied, "Although it has incomparable power, it cannot manipulate time. Only Rhea has such divine power. Nian brought it back, which is his consciousness."

"If it's just his obsession going back to the past, what about the future Bruce, what influence will he have?"

Hippolyta replied, "He will think that he is dreaming, that there is no such thing as a cup, and that everything is as usual."

Clark said solemnly: "The cup cannot manipulate time, but it separates two completely parallel worlds."

"Perhaps." Hippolyta didn't understand the mechanism of time, only said, "The deal was completed, and it took Bruce Wayne away."

"Where did you take it?"

"It may be the underworld, it may be outside the world, no one knows, just like no one has discovered that cup for thousands of years."

"Bruce disappeared because his heart knot has been untied. He founded the Justice League, we killed Doomsday, and Superman is alive and well." Arthur asked suspiciously, "But I don't understand, why isn't he in the Disappeared that afternoon, but last night?"

"Because the league is not on the right track, his work is not done yet." Clark answered him.

Bruce disappeared when he was proposed.

His original wish was to prevent Clark from being killed, but then they developed a relationship and his obsession changed.

That proposal ended all his regrets—Clark gave him a home.

Clark asked Hippolyta, "If we find this cup and destroy it, will Bruce come back?"

"As I said, it was built by Cronus with all his divine power and has its own consciousness. If it was so easy to find, Zeus would have done it for you long ago."

Clark felt a deep sense of powerlessness. He finally knew why his future self had come to stop the proposal. He wanted to prevent Bruce from disappearing.

As long as the marriage proposal is unsuccessful, Bruce's last wish cannot be realized, and the cup cannot take him away.

No matter how to solve this situation, the top priority is to bring Bruce back first.

The three were silent for a while, and Diana asked, "What should we do now, Superman?"

"Go to Central City and find Barry Allen."

-

Clark soon flew to Central City, stopped above the city and looked down at the entire city, using his super vision to observe everyone who appeared.

Although Bruce had told him that the young man would visit his father in prison at a fixed time every month, Clark couldn't wait any longer, and the feeling of losing Bruce almost drove him crazy.

Barry was frightened by the sudden visit of Superman in black.

He had just finished the day's odd jobs and was eating pizza when he was suddenly tapped on the shoulder.He jumped up suddenly, subconsciously rushed to the side, but after the lightning flashed, he couldn't move a few steps—someone blocked him.

"So your superpower is indeed speed," Clark said.

Barry was dumbfounded, he had never seen anyone faster than him!

He took a closer look and found that it was the Superman who often appeared on TV, but the one in front of him was wearing a different color suit.

"Hello, Barry Allen, I'm Superman." Clark extended his hand to him friendly.

"Wow, Superman, you are really Superman! You changed your clothes!" Barry's eyes widened in surprise, and he quickly shook hands with him, and put the other hand up, as if he was afraid that Clark would run away. A pair of hands tightly covered his palms, as if he was an extremely fanatical fan, "Oh my God, I actually saw a living Superman! Hello, I'm Barry Allen! Can you sign me?"

Clark: "..."

Clark organized his words: "Barry, I came to see you today because I have a very urgent matter, and I want to..."

Before he could finish speaking, Barry immediately interrupted him: "I promise, I promise!"

As he spoke, he rummaged through the room excitedly, and finally found a two-person poster of Superman and Batman, and handed it to Clark: "Can you sign me, Superman?"

Clark saw Batman suffocate on the poster, then looked away, and signed for Barry calmly.

"Interested in joining the Justice League, Barry?"

Barry couldn't believe it, he looked at his idol in surprise: "Me? Can I?"

"Of course." Clark nodded.

Barry started gushing again: "That would be great, it's my pleasure! I never thought I'd have the day to work with Superman! You know, I've actually been looking for someone like me... my kind? I don't Know how to describe it, you know, I hope to find an organization, have a lot of friends! You have no idea how much I want to see the Justice League, no, join it, but I dare not..."

Clark listened quietly without interrupting his enthusiasm. After he finished speaking, he said, "Your speed is very special. Can you tell me in detail?"

"It's a little hard for me... just say it's speed, it's too general." Barry thought for a while, "It's a very wonderful power, I call it 'Speed ​​Force', it ignores a lot The laws of physics, like a new kind of law."

Clark asked, "Like?"

"It's like another dimension, and it seems to be able to manipulate time and space."

"Have you tried?"

"Of course...it consumed a lot of my energy and made me eat and eat like a snack black hole."

"Barry, if the 'Speed ​​Force' you mentioned can really control time and space..." Clark revealed his real intention, "Can you send me back to a certain point in the past?"

Barry looked at him puzzled: "This is very dangerous, don't touch the timeline lightly, you should know the time paradox... I don't know how to explain it to you, but this doesn't work, no one can bear the consequences. "

"But I have to go." Clarke's eyes were firm and decisive, as if everything had been gambled, "I want to save Bruce Wayne, my fiancé."

Barry: "...wow."
