"Are you sure?"
Artemis looked at Habby suspiciously, seemingly not quite believing his words.
"I'm just speculating," Habby shrugged, appearing not to care about Artemis's question.
"But this is the only possibility I can think of. It can't be that the Young Justice League isn't planning to let us out, right?"
Artemis quickly waved her hand and said, "That's not what I meant. I just... can't quite distinguish between what's real and what's virtual anymore."
Artemis wore a wry smile, but the perceptive Habby still noticed the panic in her eyes.
Habby could understand Artemis's feelings. It was like Inception; everything happening around them was too real. Without an anchor, it would be difficult for an ordinary person to distinguish between reality and virtual under these circumstances.
If Habby hadn't added a safety measure in his head beforehand, he might still be foolishly acting out scene play right now.
"If your inner heart is wavering, then choose to believe me at this time."
Habby couldn't think of any words of comfort, so he could only first try to stabilize Artemis's mentality.
"After all, I'm considered half an expert in mind and spirit. Similarly, if you encounter difficulties in shooting, I would unconditionally believe you."
Artemis was stunned for a moment, then turned her head away and muttered in a low voice.
"Just saying pretty words..."
"Let's put that aside for now," Habby brought the topic back. "Listening to what you just said, in this state, we can see what everyone else is doing, right?"
"Yes," Artemis cleared her throat and then pointed into the distance.
"Do you see that white light over there? That's actually a light door. As long as you walk through that door, you can reach the side of those who are still alive."
"This place is like a scene set up for filming a movie," Artemis lowered her hand and continued her explanation.
"And the people who are still alive are the protagonists of this movie. Only in the scenes where they are present will there be plot. Other scenes, although they won't disappear, won't even have a living thing."
"I also explored for a while before discovering this. Let me say first, the living people can't see us. I've tried it."
"In other words, we're basically a camera right now, right?" Habby touched his chin. He understood this mode; it's Space Werewolf, isn't it?
"Since we can't do anything right now, we might as well follow them and see," Habby made a suggestion. Artemis didn't refuse either, and followed behind him towards the light door.
...
Habby's death seemed to press the fast-forward button on the plot. After the remaining Young Justice members escaped from the Hall of Justice, they thought it over and finally came to the Batcave at Robin's suggestion.
This was the secret base he knew on Earth with the richest resources and most comprehensive equipment, and also the aspect he was most familiar with.
Robin originally wanted to carefully research the launcher here, let the team members rest for a bit, and then think of a method to rescue everyone.
But as soon as the group arrived at Wayne Manor, they saw Martian Manhunter lying in the ruins. He wasn't dead, just slightly injured and had lost a lot of memory.
Martian Manhunter's survival was undoubtedly an encouragement to the children. As a member of Alpha Squad, according to the data given by Red Tornado, he should have died in space along with the other members long ago.
But now, not only was Martian Manhunter not dead, but he was also also alive and kicking. This proved that their previous guess was correct: those who were illuminated by the red light were not dead, but just teleported to some aspect.
It was very possible that Martian Manhunter had escaped from the aspect where they were imprisoned, but he was attacked during his escape, which led to him losing his memory.
The more they thought about it, the more likely it seemed. The morale that had plummeted to rock bottom due to losing their partner again actually began to slowly recover.
As morale rose, everyone also gained motivation. After all, what they were now pursuing was no longer a vague thing, but a goal confirmed by physical evidence.
For those who were still 'alive', Martian Manhunter's significance was extraordinary, and for Habby who was 'dead', it was the same.
Because Habby knew that in the plot setting, the Justice League members were indeed all dead. However, Martian Manhunter 'coming back to life' at this time represented one thing: the Justice League had begun trying to awaken them.
However, it seemed that Miss Martian's telepathy was still too strong, so strong that Martian Manhunter actually suffered some mental trauma after breaking in, which led to him losing his memory.
You should know that Martian Manhunter was already a very powerful telepath. Looking at the entire universe, if you don't count those strange gods, then those who can definitely beat him would absolutely not exceed one hand.
But even such a powerful Martian Manhunter suffered a loss at the hands of his niece. Although there was suspicion of sneak attack, this was already a very remarkable thing.
"That Martian Manhunter is not a virtual world NPC," Habby said abruptly, making Artemis beside him freeze on the spot.
"He infiltrated the virtual world from the real world. He should have been arranged by the Justice League to awaken us, but he must have had a little accident when entering the virtual world."
"What accident?" Artemis asked, pressing further.
"When you died, Miss Martian erupted with astonishing telepathy. That impact disrupted Martian Manhunter's brain, leading to him not remembering his mission now."
When Artemis heard that Miss Martian had actually done such a remarkable thing for her sake, she couldn't help but reveal a complex expression, but she was quickly attracted by another thing.
"Are you saying Miss Martian defeated Martian Manhunter in telepathy? How is that possible?"
"Telepathy and physical body are different," Habby decided to educate Female Archer. "Physical body can grow through training, but telepathy is basically determined at the moment of birth, and it's difficult to make significant progress later in life."
"In other words, in the domain of telepathy, the theory that older people are stronger doesn't hold water. When facing telepaths, you have to be fully focused, and you can't be careless at all."
"Oh," Artemis nodded. "Then what do we do now? Martian Manhunter has amnesia, how are we going to get out?"
"There's no method," Habby said helplessly. "Now we can only pray that Martian Manhunter wakes up, or that the Justice League thinks of other methods."
"Aren't you also a telepath? Can't you think of a method?" Artemis cast a hopeful gaze.
"Can't do it," Habby shook his head. "Compared to those two, I'm like a small boat on the sea, while they are one the sea and the other the sky."
