Perhaps it remembered Lin Zhongtian's breath, the divine consciousness in the thunder finally sent a message after a long silence.

"Why is it you?"

"Well, that's a long story. Anyway, your last daughter, Diana, is now considered my student."

"…She can find you?"

The divine consciousness in the thunder seemed a little surprised.

Lin Zhongtian shook his head and said, "I found her."

After hearing Lin Zhongtian's words, Zeus's mind fell silent again.

After a long while, Zeus suddenly said, "Since you and I met thousands of years ago, I can give you this power of thunder, but you have to help me take good care of Diana..."

Lin Zhongtian raised his eyebrows upon hearing this, and said in surprise, "You don't seem like a god who would dote on his children so much."

Zeus did not deny it, but explained: "Diana cannot afford to fail. The future of the Olympian gods depends on her."

Lin Zhongtian nodded suddenly: "I see, it's a fair deal, I agree."

Both of them are old foxes with thousands of years of experience. Lin Zhongtian also knows that the remaining divine consciousness of Zeus cannot exist for too long, so he was concise and to the point, and in just a few words he finalized such a transaction involving the power of the King of Gods.

Zeus was very satisfied with Lin Zhongtian's attitude and work style, and immediately replied:

"Very well. Good-bye, old—by the way, I don't know your name yet."

Lin Zhongtian smiled and said, "My name is Lin Zhongtian."

Zeus said thoughtfully: "Lin Zhongtian...Okay, I'll remember that. Goodbye, old friend."

As soon as the words fell, the remaining divine consciousness in the thunder dissipated.

Instead, there was a finger-sized blue-white lightning, whose appearance was not much different from the Thunder Spear that Ares had condensed before.

Lin Zhongtian put it into the storage space, preparing to take it back to the Time Travelers Alliance for research, and then put it on the shelf in the [Rare Treasure Pavilion].

If his guess was correct, Zhao Lihe should have bought it as soon as possible, but he didn't know whether he had sufficient funds in his account.

After dealing with Zeus's divine thoughts, Lin Zhongtian did not disturb Diana and her husband. Instead, he closed his eyes and carefully sensed the presence of the time traveler.

It’s a pity that the current timeline is the same as it was thousands of years ago, and there is still no trace of time travelers.

It seems that the other party traveled through time even later.

At this moment, the long river of time suddenly began to fluctuate violently.

Lin Zhongtian frowned and couldn't help but open his eyes to look at the real world outside the mirror space. He saw Steve kneeling on one knee, holding a watch and proposing to Diana, and Diana actually agreed.

There is no doubt that the reason for the fluctuations in the river of time is this marriage that did not originally exist.

Lin Zhongtian did not intend to break up the couple, so he used his authority over time and space to suppress the fluctuations in the river of time. He then appeared in front of Diana and Steve who were hugging each other, and told them that he was about to leave.

When Diana heard that the teacher who had just returned was about to leave again, she seemed extremely reluctant to let him go.

Fortunately, Lin Zhongtian told them that this time he would not be away for too long, only a few decades at most.

Before leaving, Lin Zhongtian gave the mother box belonging to mankind and many longevity techniques to Diana and Steve, and then recommended them with a sense of humor to settle in a city in New Jersey, USA.

The city has a name that sounds ominous, Gotham City.

…

In the gap of void, a silver light flashed, and Lin Zhongtian's figure appeared again.

The harvest this time was good. Both the power of war and the power of thunder were genuine divine power.

With these two powers, those traversers who want to take shortcuts now have a goal to strive for.

After putting both authorities on the [Gallery of Rare Treasures], Lin Zhongtian once again anchored the next important time node and chose to travel through time.

…

…

Question: What has six legs when it goes in and two legs when it comes out?

Answer: Bruce Wayne's family.

This was the DC hell joke that Lin Zhongtian often saw in his previous life.

But now, he could witness the birth of this hellish joke with his own eyes.

Standing on a high-rise building in the rain, Lin Zhongtian looked down at the dark and damp alley below with a strange expression.

There, stood a handsome young boy. He was wearing a close-fitting tailor-made suit, a black and white tie, and black leather shoes. Although his facial features were not fully developed, his handsome outline with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes could already be seen. If he were a few years older, he would definitely be a handsome boy who would attract the attention and screams of many beautiful women at the banquet.

But at this moment, the boy's eyes were blank, and the black hair on his forehead was wet by the rain, sticking sticky to his tender face.

Blood splattered on his body in a trumpet shape. His chest and hands were stained with the blood of his parents, which kept diluting and sliding down in the rain, merging into a red pool of blood at his feet, where it was hard to tell whether it was rain or blood.

Seeing this scene, Lin Yi couldn't help but sigh.

There is no doubt that the next important time node is the birth of Batman.

And this time of traveling, he has clearly felt the disturbance of the long river of time.

He guessed that this was probably because the river of time did not want him to interfere with the birth of important plot protagonists, so it made extremely small disturbances when he traveled through, causing him to miss Diana's departure from the island and the death of the Waynes.

According to the DCEU timeline, Batman's parents were killed around the 1980s.

In this timeline, Superman has already come to Earth, and most of the big names in the Justice League, except Cyborg and The Flash, have already been born.

...What about the time travelers?

Lin Zhongtian closed his eyes and sensed the power of the gray fog.

Soon, Lin Zhongtian opened his eyes and a smile appeared on his face.

Just as he expected, in this timeline around 1980, the time traveler has already arrived in this universe!

But he is not on Earth at this moment, but in a place extremely far away from Earth...

This place is so far away that Lin Zhongtian can only vaguely sense the approximate direction.

So…is he a Kryptonian, or is he a Green Lantern?

Or are they alien creatures from other civilizations in the universe?

Lin Zhongtian doesn't know.

However, he believed that as long as this fellow villager knew the existence of the earth, he would definitely try his best to return here.

...I hope the planet he is on has the ability to teleport between stars!

Otherwise, Lin Zhongtian would have to go look for him in the vast universe by himself.

Thinking of this, Lin Zhongtian turned his gaze back to the young man in the alley below.

Or the young Batman, Bruce Wayne.

After pondering for a long time, Lin Zhongtian still chose not to show up in front of little Bruce.

The reason is very simple. Batman's existence is more important than Wonder Woman.

Lin Zhongtian can interfere with Diana's fate and allow her to gain epic enhancements, but in the final analysis, these are just icing on the cake and will not significantly change Diana's future destiny.

But Batman is different, any small change may lead to very serious consequences.

Especially for young Bruce during this period, changing his experience and ideas will change the ending of the entire DC universe.

Compared to him, Diana and Steve's marriage seemed so insignificant.

Suddenly, the sound of a police car siren was heard outside the dark alley.

It turned out that a passerby nearby heard the gunshots and called the police for little Bruce.

The police car drove quickly into the alley, and a young policeman in uniform got out of the car. He hurried to little Bruce's side and checked him with concern for any injuries.

Little Bruce raised his head in a daze, looking at the young policeman with tears on his face.

Seeing this scene, the young policeman felt a little distressed. After a sigh, he took out his police officer ID, calmed Bruce down, and promised to catch the murderer of the Wayne couple.

Looking at the name 'James Gordon' on the police officer's ID, Lin Zhongtian had a thoughtful look on his face.

It turns out that the seeds of trust were planted today.

No wonder Batman in the future has such a deep bond with Commissioner Gordon.

Soon, more and more police cars appeared near the alley, and even the current police chief himself arrived at the scene.

Obviously, as the helmsman of the Wayne family, the death of the Waynes has alarmed the entire Gotham upper class.

Lin Zhongtian took one last look at the distraught little Bruce, then twisted his body and disappeared on the top of the tall building.

…

Ten minutes later, Lin Zhongtian appeared in the suburbs of Gotham, looking at the manor in front of him with a strange expression.

According to the information he had inquired about, the manor in front of him was called Trevor Manor.

Living here is the famous Trevor family in Gotham City.

The founder of the Trevor family is General Steve Trevor, a war hero who participated in World War I and World War II and retired from the Air Force with the rank of major general after World War II.

After retiring, Steve Trevor and his wife Diana settled in Gotham City. With the belongings Diana brought from Paradise Island, he successfully took root in the emerging early Gotham City.

Today, the Trevor Group's influence has spread to all walks of life in Gotham City, and it also controls 90% of the real estate in the two wealthy urban areas of Berrien and Chinatown. It can be said that it is a behemoth that is no less than the Wayne Group.

However, for some reason, the Trevor family is not active in Gotham City's upper class society.

Lin Zhongtian originally thought that Diana and Steve did this on purpose.

After all, Diana is a demigod, immortal and eternally youthful.

If you remain active in society with the same identity for a long time, it is likely to attract some unnecessary attention.

However, when Lin Zhongtian arrived outside the manor, he found that Diana and Steve were not in the manor.

After a little thought, Lin Zhongtian instantly moved inside the manor and searched around, and indeed found a letter written to him by Diana.

Diana knew that Lin Zhongtian would come to Gotham City to find her, so she prepared the letter in advance.

The meaning of the letter was very simple. It roughly said that she and Steve had a very happy married life and even planned to have a biological child in the next 20 years.

If I have to say anything regretful, it would probably be that I couldn't see Lin Zhongtian and couldn't return to Paradise Island...
