The Watchmen Universe is a World constantly heading towards destruction; no matter what Dr. Manhattan did, no matter how many times he rebooted the Universe, it would ultimately and inevitably head towards destruction.
Therefore, Dr. Manhattan left the Watchmen Universe and observed timelines in the vast Multiverse, searching for a way to save the Watchmen Universe.
When Samuel mentioned being able to save the Watchmen Universe at this moment, Dr. Manhattan was neither surprised by how he knew his thoughts nor did he underestimate him in any way.
He just looked at him and asked: "Can You save my World?"
Samuel nodded: "Yes!"
Dr. Manhattan: "Alright, I will take You with me."
Having said that, he spoke no more, looking as if the conversation was over.
"That's it?" Samuel was a bit unwilling; after finally finding Dr. Manhattan, was he just going to return empty-handed?
He knew that his purpose in seeking Dr. Manhattan was not to witness a Universe reboot or the Watchmen Universe; it was for Dr. Manhattan's abilities!
Right now, was the best opportunity!
Although Dr. Manhattan's true body wasn't present, other abilities might not work, but Mind Manipulation Ability would definitely be useful!
However — Dr. Manhattan was not a hero, and there wasn't much humanity left in him; he would truly kill people!
Heroes or villains were all the same to him; he had his own logic.
"Fortune favors the bold; with the opportunity right in front of me, I can't just waste this trip!"
Before things happened, Samuel liked to calculate and plan as much as possible to have a clear idea of the situation.
If something really happened, he wouldn't hesitate or be indecisive.
The thought of poking the bear was decided in an instant; immediately, his Mind Manipulation Ability surged towards Dr. Manhattan without reservation.
"Buzz!"
Dr. Manhattan's mind was as vast as the sea; the Mind Manipulation Ability returned without effect, surging back directly.
"Ding!"
"Combat detected, reward dropped: Immunity to Causality (Dr. Manhattan)"
Samuel, with a complicated expression, waved at Dr. Manhattan, who was looking at him again, and cut off the Vibe's perception.
His thoughts returned to reality, and Samuel felt somewhat speechless.
Is this ability, Immunity to Causality, awesome or not?
Awesome!
For example, when Samuel previously traveled through the Watchmen Universe countless times to verify if Dr. Manhattan was preventing him from seeing him.
There was even one time he killed Jonathan Osterman before he became Dr. Manhattan!
According to normal causality, since Jonathan Osterman died, Dr. Manhattan would not appear in the future, and thus the Dr. Manhattan who was stopping him should no longer exist.
But because Dr. Manhattan has Immunity to Causality, even if the past Jonathan Osterman died, it would not affect his current self.
If viewed solely from this point, it seems Immunity to Causality is an upgraded version of denying time.
Denying time means the past cannot be changed, but there are always powers that are above time.
For example, completely destroying the Universe!
If the entire Universe is gone, the concept of time naturally ceases to exist, and the effect of denying time would naturally be difficult to manifest.
Of course, there are very few powerful beings who can do this, and it's not that easy to succeed.
But, there's always a 'what if'!
Now with the ability Immunity to Causality, this 'what if' is gone; at least the possibility of being indirectly affected is eliminated!
Besides this, the greatest use of the ability Immunity to Causality is reflected in traveling across timelines!
Using the Time Variance Authority from the adjacent Marvel Universe as an example, under normal circumstances, disturbing the timeline would lead to the creation of time branches, and Timekeepers would appear to apprehend time criminals and prune the time branches!
But now, no matter what Samuel does, it won't create time branches because he won't generate 'cause', and naturally won't generate 'effect'!
According to the statement of mythology and Xianxia, it's equivalent to transcendence; killing doesn't incur karma, and nothing he does is subject to causality!
Now that Samuel is immune to causality, although there is no increase in strength or combat power, he can already be considered a true God-level figure in terms of presence.
But, this ability is merely icing on the cake for Samuel at this moment, rather than help in a time of need.
What Samuel currently wanted most was neither a quantum body, nor particle manipulation, decomposition and recombination, or the strongest connection force.
What he actually wanted most was to control time!
This ability allows him to travel to any time and place at will, and can modify and control timelines.
Highlight, control timelines!
With this ability, after returning to the Marvel Universe and conquering the Time Variance Authority, he could be considered the true Lord of Time!
He wouldn't have to rely on technology to control timelines and the Multiverse like He Who Remains or Kang the Conqueror.
In addition, there were many other benefits!
"Forget it, there'll be other opportunities." Samuel got up from the sofa, preparing to rest with Killer Frost.
Just then, a rapid whistling sound came from outside the window, followed by a crash, the window shattered, and a white figure rushed in.
Raising a hand, swinging a fist, it headed straight for Samuel!
"Bang!"
Samuel reached out and grabbed the opponent's fist, the powerful impact instantly turned the living room into a mess, with various things shattered and scattered everywhere.
"Ding!"
"Battle detected, drop reward: Energy Absorption (Power Woman)"
"Hmm?"
Samuel lightly exclaimed, surprisingly sizing up the young woman in the white uniform before him.
"Power Woman?" Looking at the name displayed on the drop reward, he already knew who the young woman in front of him was!
Power Woman, a Kryptonian, should theoretically be Supergirl, or rather, Supergirl's doppelganger!
Her name is also Kara Zor-El!
But why does she look different from Supergirl of Earth-38?
Doppelgangers in the Green Arrow Universe should all look the same, for example, the Nazi Supergirl from Earth-X looks the same as Supergirl from Earth-38!
And Power Woman, with the same name, different codename, and different appearance, is more like a Multiverse setting from the comics!
Or rather, the setting after the Infinite Earth Crisis event ended and the Multiverse was rebooted!
"Where are Fire and Killer Frost?" Power Woman slightly retreated and questioned Samuel.
"So big—no, it's such a white uniform!"
Samuel found that Power Woman and Supergirl were very different, the most obvious being the uniform—the size.
"Are you also from the International Justice League?" Samuel raised an eyebrow and asked.
"Yes!"
Power Woman responded: "Flash said you captured Fire and Killer Frost, hand them over!"
"You believe whatever Flash says?"
"Don't you even investigate? If Flash is lying to you, or if someone is impersonating Flash, and you just attack as soon as you come in, what if you kill a good person?"
"..."
