What bad thoughts can Batman have?

Chapter 879 The First Lantern Knight, Unfalsifiable

The first Lantern Knight was momentarily dazed...

But it's only for a moment.

He ignored his mother's calls, turned around again, and then, without hesitation, rushed back into the deep pit he had dug. He had to continue his plan. Over the years, although he had never actually seen his mother, many enemies had used her image to deceive him.

He wasn't some fool who would have a mental breakdown upon seeing his mother's face. If anything, he would have broken down countless times in his long life. He was simply following his goal, moving forward, ever forward!
The fake Earth-15 Superman charged toward Genie I again, but he quickly realized it was a trap; Genie I knew he would pounce on him.

Earth 15 Superman's reckless actions led to his defeat. When he got close enough to his opponent, the prepared Lantern Man 01 raised his hand and chopped it at him in the air.

Earth 15 Superman had a chance to dodge, but he was too close. In an instant, he was trapped in a cage of seven-colored emotional spectrum energy, like a flounder trapped in a cage.

Batman from Earth-15 immediately rushed to Superman's side. He tried various methods to break through the barrier, as no one understood Superman's importance better than Batman...

But he can't.

Just as Lantern Man was about to re-enter the huge pit he had dug and continue his terrifying plan to tear Mother Earth's heart out, Earth-15's Martian Manhunter finally arrived belatedly.

As he led dozens of heroes into battle against the first Lantern Man in front of the giant crater without hesitation, Batman hurriedly flew to Superman's side.

What enemy are we facing?

He heard Superman's voice.

What's wrong with my son?

Huo Rong's mother also rushed over to inquire.

"A certain paranoid delusional person."

Batman answers both of their questions at the same time:
"Based on existing intelligence, it is speculated that the other side believes that the world we live in now is false, an illusion created by some being to deceive them."

The goal was to prevent him from obtaining something from the Earth's core, but his superpowers, or perhaps something else entirely, caused him to transform a portion of the mantle into an alloy during his excavation, further exacerbating his mental health issues.

Batman paused for a moment.

"But we cannot rule out the possibility that the other party is Hemingway."

(Note: In his later years, Hemingway claimed that he was being monitored by the FBI. His family and friends thought he was delusional, but later declassified documents proved that the FBI was indeed monitoring him and that he did not have delusions.)
"So what do I do? What do I do now? Someone, please help me—"

Batman's train of thought was interrupted. He looked at the bewildered female scientist in front of him, who was almost completely flustered: "Can I go up and talk to him?"

"No, believe me. I've dealt with countless mental patients, but this is the first time I've encountered a paranoid person with such powerful tendencies. If you say something wrong and he thinks he's proven something, it will only cause more damage. You can't provoke him."

Batman softened his tone and said:
“I will try my best to help you, but madam, once he enters the Earth's core, the entire planet will be destroyed. We must proceed with caution—Superman, can you break free from this restraint?”

"I can, but it will take time, and not too long."

Earth-15 Superman asked, "What are you planning to do?"

"I went to persuade the other party."

"Are you sure you're not joking?"

"It couldn't be simpler. No one understands what these madmen are thinking better than me, but unlike those delirious lunatics, our friend still has a clear sense of self."

Batman walked past Superman and said:
"And that's worth a try. As long as I point out the unreasonable aspects of the facts he claims to me, a rational mental patient will help me find more loopholes in his logic, ultimately leading him to make the decision to regain his sanity."

"If he retaliates and attacks you, and with more members of the alliance unable to provide support..."

Superman was interrupted by Batman halfway through his sentence.

"No, I'm Batman."

Well, it's probably true, and Superman can't argue with that.

well.

When Batman from Earth-15 appeared before Lantern X, the battle was temporarily halted.

He stared at the mentally deranged superhuman in front of him. Subconsciously, this superhuman still wanted to believe his mother, which was why the other party had listened to his conversation with Superman earlier.

His judgment was correct; the appearance of Huo Rong's mother did indeed stabilize his mental state, changing him from a state of madness to one where he could communicate.

“I know what you’re trying to say. You may think I’m delusional or mentally unstable, but I have to tell you the truth.”

The first Lantern Knight said:

"I knew what you were going to say before you even opened your mouth, and I'm sorry, but this fact may be a little cruel to you..."

You are merely artificial beings created by the World Makers. Your entire world didn't even exist a few hours ago; even your memories were instilled by the World Makers.

He paused, then said, "But that doesn't mean you're not living beings. You just... don't understand."

When the Lantern Man was halfway through his explanation, he realized that the Batman in front of him was racking his brains trying to convince him. He was trying to solve a cosmic crisis using superhero thinking, but he didn't understand what he was facing at all.

This universe is so young that its existence can be measured in seconds.

How could you bear to cruelly and violently inflict malice upon such a young universe, a universe so similar to your home, even if the world's creators were forcing you to make the choice you least wanted to make, yet one you would inevitably have to:
Is it about preserving this universe or saving Superman from the main universe?

Can a newly born universe be considered a universe? The life forms in this universe are only a few hours old, but in their memory, they have lived like this for most of their lives.

Do you expect me to be so cruel as to tell them I'm sorry, your past life was all a lie, and that I'll make sure you die painlessly in a moment?

Don't even think about taking shortcuts; there's no such possibility. The First Lantern was well aware that the World Builder intended for him to face a choice.

The idea of ​​building a giant spaceship to move everyone on Earth is just child's fantasy. Genie Awakens knows very well that once he rescues Superman from the main universe, that universe will lose its meaning and will face complete destruction, just like dealing with useless garbage.

This is not something that the willpower of the first Lantern Knight can change. When this universe was created, its purpose was to serve as a decoy, and every wisp of his energy was working towards this goal.

Even if Genie Ace tried to move all the life in this universe, the final result would be like holding tofu in a blender and being shaken around, then watching helplessly as everything crumbled into dust.

So none of this matters, not even the lives of everyone in this universe. Batman's brain on Earth-15 is frantically working; even the first Lantern can see the gears turning in his brain.

He was working very hard; he was constantly analyzing the information in the conversation, trying to construct a model that would most convince him. He then spoke:

"Yes, that's right, even our universe is..."

The first Lantern Man had lost interest. It was a very simple negotiation tactic: agree to what the other party said first to avoid emotional conflict with the emotionally charged other party, which could lead to the failure of the negotiation. Batman was now treating him like a terrorist. He was completely wrong, completely wrong about everything.

None of this could restrain him; his power was immense and he wielded it with ease, and no one could stop him.

He also possessed that divine weapon constructed from countless metals. With just a slight tremor of its blade, or a truly serious move, Martian Hunters would crumble at the first touch.

The giant beast he had transformed into collapsed to the ground with a thud, like a toy whose batteries had been removed.

The heroes unleashed a barrage of electrical, fire, and energy attacks at Genie Evolution, but Genie Evolution merely flicked his hand away.

This is the overwhelming power of a dimensional reduction attack, and also clear evidence that his memories are completely real and true, while the world before him is just how fake it is.

However, he did not kill anyone; he tore through Martian Manhunter's blockade without harming any of the fellow heroes.

This makes no sense.

The first Genie thought silently. He could now observe the future and past of the timeline with a simple understanding. He knew very well that even if he let these superheroes go now, all of them, and even all the life on this fake Earth 15, would die in the planetary explosion caused by it breaking through the Earth's core and taking away the main universe's Superman.

The first Lantern Man remained expressionless.

Showing mercy had no effect, but he did it anyway.

Although he could never give up his job because of this. And then there was his mother… his mother on this fictitious earth, a remnant of his real mother.

In the end... he...

hum!
The first Lantern Knight shuddered.

In an instant, the sword he was holding, made of countless metals, suddenly emitted a buzzing sound that he could not describe, followed by intense pain.

"What……"

The first Lantern Knight collapsed to the ground, his transparent body radiating countless seven-colored emotional energy energies that vibrated repeatedly, assaulting his eyes and causing them to bleed tears.

How can it be?

At that moment, the first Lantern suddenly realized what the World Forgers were doing.

He has never taken action against the superheroes or villains of this universe, which is somewhat fortunate.

If he had just killed the superheroes of this universe, things could have been very bad, but then again...

Even if they weren't killed, their current situation isn't much better.

Amidst the thunderous sound, the brain of the first Lantern Knight was throbbing vigorously.

He realized that at this point in time, all his actions were under the surveillance of the World Forgers. After realizing that they could no longer induce the First Lantern to murder any superhero or anyone in this universe, he decisively stopped his attempt and moved on to the next stage of his plan.

The first Lantern Man wielded this sword, thus gaining access to a higher and more macroscopic perspective of the trans-temporal flow.

From the original perspective, this timeline is merely a newly created timeline with no connection to the past timelines; it is simply a plaything used by the World Maker to manipulate him.

But at this moment...

This false world is over.

"How could you do such a thing? How dare you do such a thing? How could you possibly do such a thing..."

The first Genie looked around in bewilderment at everything before him. This universe, created by the World Forger, was slowly beginning to connect with the timeline of Earth 15, the home of the first Genie in the true time-travel history.

Those nights, those morning dews.

At that moment, the world suddenly came alive.

The first Lantern Knight heard the sword at his waist singing softly, while the world responded to him from above.

And so at this moment, every second can be called a new era, and the power of time begins to cleanse this new universe, draping it in the weight of history.

Those superficial, empty pasts that only exist in the memories of every living being in the world before them suddenly become complete at this moment.

"how come……"

The first Lantern Knight could hardly believe his eyes; all of this violated the rules of the Hypertime Flow, yet it was indeed possible. The rules of the Hypertime Flow were meaningless before the sixth-dimensional deities.

Six-dimensional deities are synonymous with miracles. The more illusory the history of this universe seemed before, the more real its existence becomes now.

No longer able to look down upon the world from his lofty position as if it were a false creation, the first Lantern was forced to descend to earth.

Suddenly, the world seemed to have a history. The creatures of the entire universe did not understand what was happening; they were simply overjoyed and felt a mysterious power flowing into their bodies.

So, my friend, First Lantern Knight, a new question now appears before you:

If a place exactly like your home, with no difference whatsoever, and even possessing a past history, appears before you, what makes you think you can disprove that it isn't your hometown?
……

……

……

“Hero Day…” Superman Supreme watched as Hero Day and World Forger disappeared from his sight, then he turned his head.

"Your turn, Batman."
