Chapter 1064 Laughter and Chen Tao, their minds in sync, acted in unison.
Nobody has cared what Lex Luthor is thinking for a long time.
Papetua had previously attempted to brainwash Lex Luthor, turning him into some kind of spokesperson for her, in order to create a de facto niche to help her fight against every enemy she could imagine.
However, this plan quickly failed due to the Dark Knights' full-scale rebellion and Dr. Manhattan's relentless actions.
Luthor quickly lost his necessity and was naturally abandoned by the arrogant goddess Perpetua. The Mother of the Multiverse was overwhelmed with the current state of the DC Multiverse, so how could she possibly remember this casual pawn that she had once laid out if Luthor didn't appear in front of her?
To fight Dr. Manhattan, Perpetua had already given her all. She had even granted Luthor some of her own power, but in order to extract more power to deal with Manhattan, she took it back after discovering that Lex Luthor was no longer of much use.
This is like taking back your salary after working for a while, which is a huge insult to Luther.
Luther was never a passive player. When he removed the interference of Perpetual's powerful forces, the light of human wisdom shone brightly once more.
At the same time, nothing was more painful for Lex than not being the protagonist, and these two factors combined to drive Luthor, causing him to unleash an intelligence far beyond what he had ever possessed.
In fact, long before Luthor first learned of Doctor Manhattan's existence, he began to try to analyze Doctor Manhattan, just as he had tried to analyze Superman. If possible, he would certainly like to create a clone like Bizarro for Superman, but unlike Odysseus.
Lex Luthor, living in the DC multiverse, lacks all the material to deal with Doctor Manhattan. He only relies on some vague clues about Doctor Manhattan's energy, such as the bodies of the new god Metron and Nite Owl, who were killed by Doctor Manhattan on the moon, and the search for five-dimensional energy around the world. However, these are not enough for him to develop any effective means to counter Doctor Manhattan, no matter how clever he is.
But Perpetual's move to infiltrate the Dark Knights into the Watchers universe gave Luthor an opportunity. By monitoring the Dark Knights, Luthor discovered the Watchers universe and then traced its origins...
"This is how I discovered you, my friend."
The Pharaoh looked up and saw Luther shrugging in front of him, saying...
"I understand, but I still don't know what you intend to do, or why you intend to do it," said the Pharaoh.
"Hmph, you come from a world without superpowers, don't you? In your world, everyone is equal. Even the famous superhero Pharaoh will die if his head is shot. All superheroes and supervillains are just a group of mortals with fighting abilities. At most, they are skilled enough to see the direction in which someone raises a gun and predict the trajectory of the bullet, thus achieving an effect similar to dodging the bullet."
Luther said, "The world is fair; no one's life is above anyone else's."
"But it also makes the power of the individual extremely weak when facing the collective." The Pharaoh replied, "When a country and its people are caught in a vortex of war with mutual suspicion, even Dr. Manhattan at that time could not intervene to reverse the will of the entire country."
"So you're letting him slaughter millions? A brilliant idea, but also brutal and ruthless. While I agree that some individuals can be sacrificed for a greater cause, millions is a bit too many."
Luther said, "You seem a bit too extreme."
"But that won't affect our cooperation, right? Tell me, how do you plan to achieve absolute power?"—a phrase put together, but easy to understand. "However, I suggest you don't hide behind the TV on your office desk, but come directly to me to discuss this matter. What do you say?"
"No rush."
"Luther said."
Then Pharaoh turned his head and heard the office door being pushed open, and two of Luther's allies walked in.
The leader was the gorilla Groud, followed by Black Manta. It seems that Lex Luthor from the main universe has once again assembled the Doomsday Legion.
"Hello, I am Gerudo from the main universe."
"This is what the gorilla Grodd from a parallel universe said to Luther and the Pharaoh in the main universe."
(Note: Please refer to Chapter 916, where the nameless old dragon has previously attacked numerous gorillas from parallel universes, including the Gorilla Grud!)
Pharaoh's attention was not on the gorilla Grud at all; he was looking at the somewhat staggering and panicked old man whose arm was being grabbed by Grud.
"I clearly protected Johnny Thunderbolt!"
"Yes, but as long as you're not with him, that's enough for me to find him," Luther's voice said in front of him. "And that lamp."
In an instant, Pharaoh suddenly sprang up, and the walls of Luther's office melted into particles like tofu. Behind him came Luther's interested voice: "Oh, to be able to do something like this, breaking down matter like Manhattan. Your connection with Manhattan is deeper than I thought."
Pharaoh broke through the wall of Luthor's office and rushed into the secret room, where another Lex Luthor was sitting, looking surprised as he rushed in.
Then the Pharaoh grabbed the Luther in the dark room, and as expected, when he crushed the Luther's head, he discovered a large number of wires and steel chip structures.
This is a robot double for Luther.
He turned his head and saw Luther standing outside, who was also a remotely controlled double.
Luther never actually appeared in front of him.
He sensed a loser in the dark room through the wall, but it was just a double deception.
"I have come to seek cooperation," Pharaoh emphasized again.
The Luther outside didn't speak, but the largest monitor in the office lit up, revealing the real Luther sitting behind the camera.
"And we are working together," Luther said on the screen.
"As everyone knows, although this old man in front of us calls himself Johnny, according to the information I got from Wally West of the Justice League, he is not an ordinary mortal at all."
"
Wally West, the second Flash, retained his memories from before the theft of the DC Multiverse ten years after Doctor Manhattan stole it. He was trapped within the Speed Force, but escaped completely after the DC Multiverse was reborn, thus initiating the DC Multiverse's counterattack against Doctor Manhattan. In Doctor Manhattan's own words, it was a powerful counterattack. Wally West leaked a great deal of information about Doctor Manhattan, and after successfully escaping the Speed Force, his words and actions became Lex Luthor's source of intelligence.
"He outwardly believes himself to be Johnny, but in reality, he is the five-dimensional being Thunder Sprite. The ten years that Dr. Manhattan stole from the DC multiverse caused a cognitive dissonance in the immortal five-dimensional being who exists simultaneously in different timelines."
He reconstructed his identity and regarded himself as his own master.
Luther on the screen moved his fingers slightly, and a large amount of experimental data appeared behind him, supporting his point of view.
"I've been monitoring Superman, so I know almost everything he's been through."
Luther said, "Walley told us that our history has been stolen. And it's obvious we all know who the thief is. And there's only one way to reclaim our world's history."
Luther looked at Pharaoh.
"You are the only being we know of who can compel Doctor Manhattan," he said. "I have a way to help us cut through an entire piece of history—and then trap Doctor Manhattan within it."
Luther spoke, but neither Luther nor the Pharaoh realized—
Johnny, standing in front of them, was indeed a five-dimensional being, the Thunder Sprite.
As a five-dimensional being, the Thunder Sprite is unique within the DC multiverse. In other words, five-dimensional beings do not have the concept of parallel universe versions; they are the same individual in any parallel universe.
The last person to control the Thunder Sprites — (Chapter 76)
It can only be said that whether it's Chen Tao or him, their habits are the same.
