What bad thoughts can Batman have?

Chapter 928: The First Lantern Hero, Resetting the Timeline Once Again?

The first Lantern Man realized he was wrong, terribly wrong.

He made almost the same mistake as the Anti-Monitors or others: based on their preconceived notions about Batman Dragon, they unilaterally assumed that the Nameless Dragon was the future version of Batman Dragon, and based on this, they concluded that they were too trusting of him. Naturally, they deviated directly from the plan that Batman Dragon had designed for them, and ended up here, on a timeline completely different from the world he knew, to carry out the plan that the Nameless Dragon had explained to him.

He made a big mistake, which is why he is in this predicament now.

Perhaps from the very beginning, Batman Dragon was already an unnamed old dragon, capable of turning anyone into the Joker in just one bad day, let alone Batman Dragon. At some point, he was no longer the Batman Dragon that the first Lantern knew. The first Lantern was unsure when that was.

When Edward Nigma, the Riddler, sheds his suave mask, Genius Lantern A.E. quickly realizes that everything Edward had done before was actually just to ensure this moment happened.

(Note: For example, in Chapter 842, Edward Nigma the Riddler was sent by the Nameless Dragon to observe Barry Allen the Flash before the crisis, to ensure he wasn't killed by Superman the Wizard from Earth 9. Another example is Chapter 850, where the Nameless Dragon had Edward Nigma, pretending to obey orders and participate in Batman Dragon's operations, mislead him into believing that Nigma was under Batman Dragon's command when he met the First Lantern.)
The first Lantern Man, unwilling to sit idly by and await his fate, actually obeyed the other party's orders to attempt to balance the black and white lantern energies within a sixth-dimensional deity. This was tantamount to putting himself in an oven to bake, purely a waste of resources. The nameless old dragon didn't treat him like a human being at all. Even if Batman Dragon used anything to tempt him or ask him to do something extremely dangerous, he would never send him to his death.

Moreover, it turns out that some of the tasks Batman Dragon sometimes gives you seem very dangerous, but once you actually do them, you'll find that he actually has several other backup plans that he never told you about. No matter how dangerous they seem, in the end, they will all land safely. Although Lantern 01 knows that Batman Dragon is a gambler who goes all in and that he will eventually run out of luck, at least he won the first few times, even if it caused a huge hole like Earth-15.

So this time...

The mission that sent him here was given to him by Batman Dragon. Did he foresee the Nameless Dragon and the Batman Who Laughs cooperating? Did he foresee that things would turn out completely differently than he expected? Did he foresee the existence of the Nameless Dragon?

No, he probably didn't.

A sixth-dimensional being can observe every moment of the timeline simultaneously, but Batman's dragon is not a sixth-dimensional being.

The first Lantern Man knew that this was just a glimmer of hope he had given himself in his despair, like a person in the desert fantasizing that a god had foreseen his impending death from thirst and would bring him water at the crucial moment.

But no one is a god.

Batman is not a god.

He wants to save himself.

"Don't be stupid enough to defy me. Just do as I say, and I'll resurrect that fake Earth 15 that you sent into the Black Death Emperor's death zone. Just consider it for the sake of that Earth, isn't that good?"

He heard the riddler Edward Nigma say, "No, not at all."

The first Lantern was willing to die for that fake universe, but only if he was willing to do so.

Humans are such strange creatures. They can die for a noble goal when no one is forcing them, and they can struggle desperately to survive when someone is forcing them to die, for reasons they themselves are unaware of. Perhaps this is what makes fate interesting. Different choices lead to different results. You are constantly connected and resonate with the whole world, playing a magnificent symphony.

The first Lantern lowered his head. He pretended to submit, pretended to submit to that fake Earth-15 universe, and began to rush towards the Anti-Monitor. He saw the satisfied expression on the Riddler's face, which was mirrored on the Nameless Old Dragon's face. He moved a piece, thinking he had the piece's Achilles' heel, but you never expected my counterattack.

So when Lantern Man approached Anti-Monitor, the emotional spectrum energy that erupted from him did not break the balance between the two spectrum energies within Anti-Monitor!

He did not intend to rush into the other's body. Instead, he wanted to strengthen this balance, help the Anti-Monitor regain its power, and thus take revenge on the nameless old dragon, even at the cost of releasing the Anti-Monitor and causing it to reach the future where it would rule the entire DC multiverse!

The nameless old dragon's deepest malice ignited even greater malice in the first Lantern. When evil confronts evil, it can only bloom with even darker evil flowers. This is the law of the DC multiverse, and also the curse of the Dark Multiverse.

However, the first Lantern Knight faced an unnamed old dragon.

He is no ordinary man; even though he is no longer a hero, he still inherits the most classic methods of Batman: Dragon.

When Lantern Man attempted to take action against Anti-Monitor, he was struck dumb in an instant. Sometime during the night, the Emperor Joker's circus-like, bouncing thoughts invaded his mind, rendering him incapable of the actions he had originally intended to take in resistance.

He realized that when the Nameless Dragon tampered with the two trump cards Batman Dragon gave him, he had already foreseen this day... Perhaps Batman Dragon had already harbored the same thoughts as the Nameless Dragon back then. They were originally the same person. From the moment he was brought here, Batman Dragon was no longer the Batman Dragon of the past. He had fallen into evil, and he was now the Nameless Dragon!
Under the immense malice of the nameless old dragon, the first Lantern made a nearly identical malicious conjecture. A death-like despair and rage engulfed him, burning his reason, and his aged face became increasingly terrifying.

He still has a chance, he still has a chance. He won't die immediately. Even if he doesn't have the lifespan to go back after restarting the timeline, he will try his best to sabotage Batman Dragon's plans as revenge!

The Emperor Clown has been controlled by the Nameless Old Dragon. The strange behavior the other party had done before was just to distract him and prevent him from thinking deeply about whether there might be any connection between the Emperor Clown and the Nameless Old Dragon.

Damn it, damn it!
He had run out of options, but the first Lantern Knight still had one more trick up his sleeve.

Rebooting the timeline, as a time traveler, he wants to escape to the past!
In an instant, time energy shone on his body, and he flew straight into the past!
