Chapter 199 Then the Mirror Master Knelt Down Gently
"What are you doing?" Killer Croc touched his chin, unsure whether he, as Robin, should go up to help or what. Batman did not go into Midtown Hospital, but took him to the roof of the hospital. From the rooftop, Chen Tao's lower body turned into a floating nanorobot, holding him and floating along the outer wall, and jumped directly into a room on the second floor. A question mark floated above Killer Croc's head: "Hey, Batman! I haven't gotten in the car yet!" "Wait here." Chen Tao told him: "It is a tradition for Batman to leave Robin behind and act on his own. You should learn..." Then he turned his head and saw Killer Croc climbing the wall with his claws, following him. He was obviously huge, but still as flexible as a mouse. In order to enter the room, he even groaned, and then his body shrank a little. He said: "Ignoring Batman's orders is also Robin's traditional art." Chen Tao was speechless. He no longer cared about Killer Croc, but concentrated on operating the equipment in front of him. This room is the power distribution room of Midtown Hospital. He checked carefully before entering. There are no mirrors or anything with a smooth surface that can reflect reflections in the room.
Great.
"What are you going to do..."
"I want to leave myself a little trick." Chen Tao told Killer Croc: "Now I can cut off the power supply of any room in this building at any time."
He stood up, his eyes flashing with a fascinating light: "Let's go. Let's go meet the famous rogue gang in Midtown... or the incomplete version of it."
Then, he pushed open the door of the power distribution room and walked out openly.
Killer Croc followed him: "Ah? I thought we didn't have to fight this time."
"We need to talk, but we are not the Flash."
Chen Tao said:
"We don't have a 100% success buff for need talk."
A nurse passed by the corridor with a medical record in her hand, breathing heavily, and bumped into Chen Tao and Killer Croc.
Killer Croc, wearing a Robin uniform, smiled at her.
"Ah ... Like all legends, the mirror should have been broken, but it wasn't. Instead, it had the ability to connect dimensions.
Through studying this mirror, I learned to create mirrors and teleportation with various effects, and made my own mirror gun, and happily began my criminal career.
What happened next?
Then I joined the Rogues.
And the reason we got together was simple: The Flash was so damn strong.
To deal with someone as fast as the Flash, the number of people can tip the scales. And some of us can melt cars, create frost, and summon blizzards with a wave of a wand.
Even if this speedster is fast, it will take some effort to deal with us.
We have money, ability, and plans, and even a little respect from other criminals, and many admirers, like the Rainbow Bandit and the rookie magician who came to Midtown just to have a place in the Rogues.
To be fair, I know we are outlaws, and what we do is technically illegal…
But here’s the thing, we live in the greatest country in the world, full of opportunity, right? Everyone has the right to make a living doing what they do best.
The easiest jobs for us are robbery and theft, so it’s our fault?
You can blame our parents, or society, or whoever you think is right, it doesn’t matter.
We are just a bunch of ordinary people who work hard and don’t fit in, trying to survive in the world.
Believe it or not. We follow certain rules, three principles:
First, don’t kill unless you have to. The police are just doing their job.
Second, we don’t do drugs, not that we are not evil, but drugs always lead to breaking the first principle.
And third, win.
We always follow these three principles, and we are proud of them.
People often say that a hero is only as good as his enemy.
By that, the Flash is more powerful than the entire US Army, just try.
The Flash might think we're slow, but who can be faster than him?
People don't always know that there's a reason why the Rogues always push the Flash to his full potential.
The Rogues never rest on their laurels, and as long as there's more profit, the Rogues will come back. People don't understand that our relationship is much closer than many people think.
We steal, we rob, and that's what we do.
The Rogues also have an unwritten rule, a bond stronger than death itself, we watch each other's backs until we die in battle -
Well, but that's all in the past.
I used to thank Captain Cold whenever I had the chance, not only because he led us, but more importantly, he introduced me to his sister, Lisa Snart, the Golden Glider, the love of my life.
I'd die for Lisa.
The Rogues are such a big family.
But Captain Cold destroyed it himself.
Anyway, this is what happened:
For a long time, even with high-tech equipment, it was difficult for us to compete with the speedsters, and Captain Cold...
He was the leader, and he thought he should have been drinking with us and celebrating the most outstanding crime in history, instead of immersing himself in sadness, drinking whiskey, and doing unskilled looting.
Under the pressure of not being able to defeat the Flash, Captain Cold went crazy. And you know what the worst thing was? He dragged the whole gang crazy with him, and then sent us all to hell.
A year and a half ago, Captain Cold found a thing called a genetic recombiner. According to him, this thing can rewrite the DNA of all the gang members, so that our bodies and super powers can be integrated, and we will become superhumans, just like the Flash.
We all believed his lies.
"How do you know this thing will work?"
"What do we have to lose?"
"You've been banging your head against the wall again and again, being easily disarmed by the Flash, and resisting desperately but to no avail. Haven't you had enough? This machine will completely turn the tide!"
"Put the weapon in the machine, and let's have a good fight!"
"Are you kidding me, Leon?"
"No kidding, Lisa."
That was all we talked about, and then we were like fools, trying a machine whose effect we didn't know at all.
Captain Cold said he was no kidding, he brainwashed me, brainwashed everyone, and the Rogues put all their trust in Captain Cold...
What did they get in return?
Yes, the gene recombination machine worked, it gave the Rogues superpowers, but at what cost?
I am forever trapped in the mirror world.
And the Golden Glider, my Lisa, was forced to leave her body and become a spirit, and every time she touched anything, she could only last for a short time.
Her spirit wandered around, but the real her couldn't move, and she was living a life worse than death.
Heat wave... poor guy, his whole body was burnt beyond recognition. Do you know how painful it is for a burn patient? But Mick's whole body was scorched.
The life of the weather wizard is more cloudy than sunny. His mood fluctuates with the weather. Although he is free from the shackles of the weather wand, he has completely lost the ability to control his mood.
He suffers from depression and various mental illnesses. All psychological treatments and drug interventions are useless to him. His mood only follows the damn weather!
The Rogues are finished. We are divided and fighting each other. We want to kill Captain Cold, but this coward ran away without saying a word, leaving us alone...
At this moment.
This is the second-floor ward of the Midtown Hospital. Golden Glider Lisa Snart is lying on the bed, wrapped in bandages.
The figure of Mirror Master Sam appears on a mirror next to him.
Due to the error of superpowers, he can no longer appear in the real world.
"Lisa... Lisa..."
He whispered to the beauty on the bed, but got no response.
So the Mirror Master frowned.
"I won't let anyone hurt you, Lisa." He promised: "Batman, and Killer Croc, no matter what their purpose is, I won't let them get close to your room."
His eyes flashed with silver light, and he made up his mind.
At the same time...
"Oh my God? What is this!" Killer Croc screamed.
Now they are no longer walking in the corridor of Midtown Hospital, but appearing in a space full of broken mirrors.
And their enemies... Mirror Masters, there are hundreds and thousands of them.
"This is not fair!" Killer Croc was hugged by dozens of Mirror Masters just when he wanted to stand up, and was directly crushed into a crocodile.
He heard the other party's voice, layer by layer, echoing in countless people's mouths.
"Welcome to the mirror world, this can be called my territory, but still call him by his real name - prison!" Killer Croc roared, and huge power burst out from his body, directly blowing away dozens of Mirror Master's clones, but it was useless. Mirror Master just snapped his fingers lightly, and then more identical clones continued to gush out from other mirrors.
Killer Croc was caught off guard and was hit on the head by one of them.
"Ouch!"
"The situation has changed. We have evolved and become many people... more and more!"
Killer Croc was decisively scared.
He turned his head and looked at Batman who was standing next to him and watching the show: "Wow! Save your Robin quickly, I will be crushed to death if you don't do it!"
As he spoke, he tried hard to tear off the countless mirror masters on his body, and then he was pulled out of a tooth by the other party with a sudden force, and screamed in pain.
Chen Tao ignored Robin's call for help.
He was staring at the mirror master.
The other party seemed to have realized how dangerous Batman was, so he picked the weakest persimmon and did not manipulate those clones to attack him.
It must be said that Sam limited the conflict within a certain limit, which was undoubtedly a smart move. As the man who temporarily replaced the captain's position when Captain Cold was away in the original work, even if he was imprisoned in the mirror world, his strategic mind was no less.
"Leave here, Batman."
But love makes people blind.
Although he said this, Chen Tao had noticed that he was preparing to exile them into a deeper mirror world.
That is a realm that even the Mirror Master cannot reach, full of strange creatures from various dimensions and various unknown dangers.
Chen Tao looked at the image of the Mirror Master in front of him.
This is probably not a real person. The other party has blended himself into a lot of clones very well, or he is not here at all.
"We need to talk."
Chen Tao told him.
You launched "We need talk"!
You failed to talk, please change into the Flash's clothes and try again!
"I have nothing to talk about with you superheroes."
Silver light flashed in the eyes of the Mirror Master.
Since he gained superpowers, this ability has also been very unstable for him, and he himself doesn't even know when it will go wrong.
The attempt to open a deeper mirror world portal is also a very dangerous act for him, but he has no choice.
He knows very well how powerful Batman is, so either he doesn't do it or he goes all out, otherwise he will only lose.
Once he loses, then Lisa...
The Mirror Master made up his mind.
Then he saw Batman snap his fingers.
Woo-woo-woo...
He heard a strange sound in the room of the Golden Glider, as if the instruments that maintained the Golden Glider's life were groaning and all stopped working.
The Mirror Master's movements came to an abrupt stop.
Then all the mirrors in front of him shattered at that moment. Killer Croc raised his head from a pile of broken mirrors and saw the Mirror Master's true body appearing from another distant mirror, rushing towards the two of them.
"He's here, you forced out his true body, Batman."
Killer Croc rubbed his hands: "Finally it's time for a fair fight! One-on-one! Face to face!"
Closer, closer and closer.
Killer Croc raised his fist.
With a cool sound, the Mirror Master slid to his knees, and the mirrors formed a channel under his feet, allowing him to slide all the way and kneel directly in front of Chen Tao.
"Please, turn on the power quickly!"
The anxious Mirror Master grabbed Chen Tao's trouser leg.
"Without electricity, the medical equipment that maintains Lisa's life can't work, and Lisa will die!"
"Please, please!"
