In the dim bat cave, you can vaguely hear the sound of water and the movement of the small animals. The sound is so faint, but it is like a hairy skin wriggling around the ear.
After Batman spoke, several people in the Justice League really entered the obedient mode for the first time, and they were too accustomed to obeying his orders.
Batman's voice was still so calm, but he didn't know whether he had forgotten the pain or controlled himself with willpower.
But now it looks like he is back again.
Su Ming found a chair and sat down. Beside him was a hidden staircase leading to the lower level, and the damp breath was slowly flowing below.
Although Batman's plan is definitely different from his, it doesn't hurt to listen to the specific situation.
Batman looked at him and then at Green Arrow: "I looked at Arkham's situation just now. The Laughing Bat went there, but the Joker got away before him."
Oliver looked at the countless green eyes hanging upside down above the cave. He touched his beard: "So, is this good news?"
"Yes, the Joker can't die." Batman replied affirmatively. He retracted his hand into his cloak: "His blood, like his madness, is a very serious source of infection, let alone another toxin. "
Su Ming nodded and fiddled with the rose that was strangling on his chest: "Because his blood contains the Dionysian factor, if it is contaminated with drinking water or food, it will create a large group of lunatics with self-healing ability. The laughing bat wants to kill. He is second, it's better to say that he is in love with his blood."
"But the clown killed Selena..." Diana frowned, she was still more inclined to take revenge.
Batman paused slightly, and the muscles on his jaw twitched: "I will find a way to save her, but now our first task is to protect the earth."
Arthur was drowsy when he heard it, and when he saw the topic slid in the direction of ‘protect the earth’ and ‘for justice’, he quickly raised his hand to signal that he wanted to speak.
"Don't talk about that. I know the truth. Just tell me where to stop the smiling fake. I came with a super weapon this time."
After speaking, he proudly clapped the Poseidon trident in his hands. This platinum weapon was now emitting a soft blue light, and the light radiated slowly like a sea wave.
Seeing what he looked like, Batman had to divide a part of his willpower to control himself not to hold his forehead, because Death Knell and Green Arrow did so.
"The Laughing Bat killed the clowns in their world, inhaled the clown toxin, and became a new poison host. Once someone kills him, the madness will fall on the killer and become a new clown. ."
It seemed that Arthur had forgotten about it, and Batman could only remind him again.
That toxin, or curse, cannot be erased. This world is destined to have such a madness. No matter how many times the host is killed, it will turn the murderer into a new clown.
Hearing his explanation, several people looked at the death knell at the same time, and their eyes revealed the meaning of inquiry.
Su Ming shrugged and leaned relaxedly on the back of his chair:
"Don't look at me, although I cut off the head of Maniac Laughter last time, it is obvious that the injury did not kill him. Oh, it seems you need to add a few more pieces of information. Maniac Laughter can still regenerate with physical separation. The self-healing ability is either because the concentration of Dionysian factor in his body is very high, or the world feels that one portion is crazy enough, and he has to order another takeaway...
"I hope it's not the latter. It would be too bad in that case." Oliver blew the beard on his upper lip, because that statement didn't sound very beautiful.
What the world needs is either world rules or high-level concepts, which cannot be killed by conventional means.
Maybe Batman has a backup plan? Or what do you know about the death knell? But he himself has no clue in a short time.
"You said two possibilities, but this is just information, what else do you know?" Batman sensed that there was something in the words before the death knell.
Su Ming raised his hand and touched the Laughing Craftsman badge on his chest, and then made a hand-turning motion: "The last time I played against him, I had some suspicions. The Laughing Bat might have something similar to Halle. Ability, such as seeing something outside the wall."
Batman looked at him blankly: "I disagree with what you said, whether it's Halle or Ambush Bugs. What they call seeing themselves as comic characters is actually a manifestation of mental illness. Imagine that all this requires treatment."
"Are you really not believing it? Or forcing yourself not to believe it?" Su Ming smiled.
Batman's expression didn't change a bit, he looked away: "If you insist on the fourth wall, I can only help you reserve a bed in Arkham."
"You know about bat spirits and troublemakers, and you also recognize the existence of the fifth dimension. Is it difficult for you to recognize things outside the wall of origin?" Su Ming scratched his face amusedly. He knew Batman was the latter. : "I think this is the difference between Luther and you."
"The fifth dimension, the tenth dimension, these are not helpful to our current situation. The wall of origin has exploded, and there are only blazing eyes outside the wall. You know more about things related to it, such as inverted people, such as Papetu. Ah, I am waiting for your explanation, in the near future."
Batman ended the conversation unilaterally. He turned around with his chair, and then talked about projecting some information on the screen of the Brother Eye host:
"Now let's deal with the Laughing Bat first. The wall of origin has been destroyed, and the void outside is devouring our multiverse. Some universes have been destroyed, and our time is running out."
Su Ming's purpose of molesting Batman has not been achieved. His mouth is very strict and he has not revealed any real secrets.
If Batman doesn't know, it's fooling the child. Although you can guess a little bit of his motive for doing this, Su Ming still wants to hear his own explanation.
"Well, let's put aside the dispute first and take a look at the other one you plan to play."
Batman tilted his head slightly: "He is not me."
"You are Bruce Wayne, and he is also Bruce Wayne. He is your same individual in another world..." Oliver stretched out two hands and gestured, almost grabbing an apple and a pen.
"Because I'm Batman." Batman interrupted Oliver's gesture, turned his head, and pressed a series of buttons, and a map of Gotham City was projected on the screen.
It's just that his map is more detailed and accurate. Not only roads and buildings, but also three sets of sewer systems, and some tunnels dug by illegal immigrants themselves are shown on this map.
"Oh, yes, it seems that you will really show some sincerity." Su Ming stared at the map intently, and said something ridiculous.
In the past, he kept some secrets hidden, but today it seems that he has taken an open attitude. If you know that Gotham is his life, if you take out the secrets about Gotham Geography, it is equivalent to entrusting his life. .
"Put away your weird accent. You are not Italian. If you want to remember the map, I will only give you three seconds."
"It's done, you can continue." Su Ming smiled.
Batman randomly changed the picture, re-shielded the buildings and roads on the ground, and focused everyone's attention on the sewer system.
He quickly explained: "If you want to understand what the Laughing Bat is going to do, you must first understand what the Owl Court has done in this city."
"Did they fix the sewer?" Oliver spread his hands.
"More than that, the map you just saw is only the locations I know. Gotham has more secrets underneath, like a treasure that can be explored endlessly." Batman emphasized and explained his map. Not complete.
"It's more like an endless abyss." Diana hugged her arms and said her own opinion. Although the city is gloomy, London is as clean as white paper compared to here.
Batman ignored her complaints and continued his own topic: "When the construction of Gotham was still underway around 1790, the owls infiltrated some nobles. Together with several major families, they used a mixture of amber gold. They built houses with metal and built the first sewer system underground, in order to facilitate the claws to operate secretly, and to select the address for their base camp Night Owl Labyrinth."
"You took the labyrinth, it should have happened last year." Oliver took it.
"Yes, but it's just a maze. Claw Zero is still at large. The members of the Owl went underground again. When Barbatos invaded, I also met a large number of owl priests in Egypt..." Bat Xia quickly added without looking back.
He doesn't mind his teammates' divergent thinking, which is easy to develop ideas. Green Arrow may be able to think of something, but Batman should make the decision.
"Well, after that, you were tricked by them with magic, and you were sent to laughter and tied to the steeple in the dark multiverse, and you kept having nightmares. I still rely on me to save you." Su Ming said with a smile.
Batman glanced at him: "I paid ~EbookFREE.me~ and continued to talk about business. Around 1930, the influence of the four major families in the city further declined, or the Court of Owl was due to a series of internal fights. They had to lie dormant, and Gotham entered the era of the rule of eight families composed of immigrants. At the same time, because of the high profits of bootlegging, they built Gotham’s second sewer, which is very spacious and concealed. The steamboat inside was built to transport bootleg wine."
"Then the third system was built by you with money, right?" Su Ming already knew the answer.
"Because when I returned to this city, the sewage problem on the street was very serious. Wayne Enterprise invested in the construction of the latest drainage facilities and sewer system to facilitate people's travel on rainy days.
"But what's the use of these? Arthur has flooded all three systems." Diana objected.
"Because these three sewer systems are just passages, not the destination of the Laughing Bat. If he finds the key location first, Gotham will be over."
Batman pressed a few buttons, and a complicated set of water supply equipment appeared on the screen, which was connected to almost all drinking water pipes.
