Chapter 520 I use silence to tell you that I will not look back

Boom!

There was a loud bang.

Night Owl felt like he was restrained to a chair. There was darkness all around, and a light came down from above his head, like an actor's spotlight in the center of the stage.

He opened his eyes and saw the Joker sitting in front of him in perfect condition. He was dressed as a policeman interrogating prisoners. Night Owl lowered his head and found that he was wearing a prison uniform. The armor and mask on his body were unknown. Sometimes it disappears.

Nite Owl felt a little uncomfortable. He had been wearing the Nite Owl hood for a long time. He was very busy, and he was so busy that he was running out of food and clothing. He was no worse than Batman.

Even when he is sleeping, he lies in front of the Owl computer with a mask on, and continues working when he wakes up. He has too many things to worry about, and they are all going on at the same time. Sometimes this mask looks like his mask, and sometimes it looks like one of his faces. He has long been indistinguishable from the name Night Owl.

He has done so much for his own universe. His love for his world is far deeper than Batman's. He has also made far more detailed preparations than Batman. He has worked far harder than Batman. More sacrifices were made.

Therefore, he is the one who should win, and his world is the world that should survive——

Ye Xiao knew very well that this idea was completely wrong. He equated hard work with success. He should have known it a long time ago, he had known it a long time ago...

In this world, hard work may not necessarily pay off, and persistence in thinking will never pay off. Success through hard work is just a lie to children.

But occasionally, quietly, he would timidly have a little delusion, thinking that if he tried his best, he could always increase the probability of his own survival in the world. This at least proves that everything he did was not meaningless, doesn't it?

"how?"

He heard the Joker say.

"Is there anything you want to explain?"

Night Owl closed his eyes and turned his head. Even though he was reduced to such a situation, he was still as cold and arrogant as a female elf.

Nite Owl tried to free himself from the restraints on the chair. He knew that the scene in front of him was not real, but an illusion caused by the attack of the Joker virus on his central nervous system, and the Joker in front of him was not a real person - the Joker was dead long ago, he killed him with his own hands, and they killed each other. Bite falling from Wayne Tower into Gotham, the city that gave birth to them, the city they both loved, their vicious mother.

Only one of the Gotham Twins remained that day. Night Owl killed the Joker and also killed...a part of himself.

The Joker in front of him is just the personification formed in his mind by his memory of Joker.

He wasn't interested in talking to his pile of memories of the Joker - he was trying to concentrate on not listening to the Joker's babbling, and find a way to wake up.

As long as he was awake for a short period of time, he could select the 132 antidotes he had prepared for the Joker's viruses and drugs, which one could best alleviate his current symptoms, and inject it into his body, and then find a way to prepare the antidote.

He kept struggling with his strength, and then imagined himself falling. The feeling of falling can wake people up from their dreams, and he has been trained to do so.

And then he found himself standing in the shadows, not far away, his Dick Grayson, his claws, his family, hanging from the ceiling with their hands tied.

A light shines on the Joker and Dick like a spotlight, hiding Night Owl in the shadows.

Night Owl tried to move, but couldn't move at all.

"Wake up... wake up." He heard the clown say to Dick.

"How's it going? Do you think I want to hurt you? Why? Here? Oh, I'm not a bad person, no no no no no."

He said: "I'm a good guy. At least I used to be. The real bad guy is Night Owl, and he abandons you like a dog you don't like."

NO, I have not.

Ye Xiao wanted to curse angrily, but he couldn't say a word. He knew that all this was just a fantasy. He closed his eyes and wanted to get rid of it all, but when he opened them again, he still saw the scene in front of him.

"Oh, can I raise him, dad? Oh, please, please, I will take good care of him..." The Clown man went crazy and performed a melodrama in front of the claws, just as Night Owl remembered, and then His voice became deeper: "As long as you are happy with my princess, but make sure people know that he belongs to you."

Then he snapped his claws hanging from the ceiling, and Dick Grayson fell limply to the ground, while Joker raised his own crowbar and hit him hard on the head.

Boom!

This voice seemed to strike Ye Xiao's heart.

The clown's voice pretending to be his father sounded: "We don't want him to escape back here in the end, right?"

Then he went back to pretending to be a little girl: "No, we don't, Daddy, I want to have him forever."

He kicked Claw Dick, kicking him into the shadows, and then there was the scream of the other party and the sound of the crowbar breaking bones: "I was, once, a good man! But now the game is over. I So tired. No more games. Kill my Harley. Let this end."

Once, twice, three times, Claw Nightwing's screams and the Joker's voice that seemed to be laughing or crying were mixed together, and Night Owl could no longer close his eyes.

"Enough!" he roared angrily: "You pale lunatic! What on earth do you want to do???"

He found that he could move again. He ran desperately towards the darkness, and then found that there was no one beside him, as if he was shouting in the wilderness.

Then when he came to his senses, he found himself sitting in the interrogation chair again.

He saw the Joker sitting across from him, slowly placing a king playing card in front of him.

Then another Xiao Wang was placed.

"You murdered Harley Quinn. An innocent girl." He heard the Joker say: "I hope you understand that my murder of [Claw] Dick Grayson was not pure revenge. Your murder of an innocent person Let me realize that you have completely turned into a demon who does not regard human life as human life. Therefore, I can no longer stop you."

(Note: The Dark Multiverse is different from Earth 3 of the main universe. The Joker’s Harley Quinn on Earth 3 of the main universe is a monkey, but in the Dark Multiverse, Harley Quinn is the Joker’s lover.)

He heard the Joker say, "I'm determined to break my no-kill rule and pay for the Claw with my life."

He said: "You know very well that it's not that you hunted me down. It's that I am determined to die in your hands. Hee, hee, hee."

Ye Xiao felt like he had a thousand words to say. He felt like a volcano was about to erupt, but his mouth was stuck with glue and he couldn't open it at all.

"...Dick is innocent."

"Dick, he followed your orders and committed many crimes. Harley is the innocent one, and you know it yourself!"

"I had no choice! If I didn't do that, Speedmaster and his criminal syndicate wouldn't accept me. They would think I was weak and then try to get involved in Gotham and take over our Gotham. At that time, Speedmaster was too strong. Once he takes over Gotham, everything he did in Metropolis will be completely replicated on Gotham, and Gotham will be a river of blood!"

"And at that time, you also knew very well that Thunder Zansa was watching with eager eyes, and the Super Queen had an ambiguous attitude. I had to tell them that I had the same ruthless heart as them, so that I could integrate with them and I could protect my city!"

"If I didn't unite with Speedmaster at that time, Gotham City would be destroyed by Thunder Xantha! I had to do that! I had to get close to Speedmaster, and then I could counter him. Everything about Speedmaster at that time was to me It’s all unknown!”

"Damn it, you have no idea what I paid for my city!"

Night Owl cursed loudly, and all kinds of free swear words spewed out of the cold-faced Owl's mouth, and then ended with the last sentence: "Everything I did was to protect my Gotham, my city!! ! I have no choice!”

"So you sacrificed Harley Quinn without any scruples. Because her boyfriend was the Joker. You couldn't catch the Joker, but you could take advantage of innocent people, right? You executed about 2,000 people who opposed you. , that day blood flowed into rivers, and every alley in Gotham was filled with the stench of the rotting corpses of the dead. "

He heard the Joker say, and the other person's tone had never been exactly the same as Night Owl's at this moment.

The Joker's face was expressionless, and then his voice turned into a double mix, and its appearance gradually changed. The Joker's purple hair gradually blurred and disappeared, then transformed into two pointed ears, and then Those iconic owl glasses.

The Joker turned into Ye Xiao himself, and Ye Xiao heard the other party's voice still ringing:

"The death of Harley Quinn directly caused the Joker to have the idea of ​​​​giving up his life to admonish me."

"No! Shut up!" Ye Xiao shouted, but the other party didn't stop at all.

"So he killed Dick and then died deliberately at my hands."

"No, I beg you... don't say any more."

"So the ripple effect of all this is because I chose to sacrifice an innocent person. I crossed and violated my line, just this once, and suffered terrible consequences."

"Actually...the person who killed Dick Grayson with his own hands..."

"Stop talking, please..."

"... Thomas Wayne Jr. himself."

Night Owl stood there.

Tears flowed from under his mask to his lips, bitter and wet.

"Think about it, Thomas." He heard the Joker say: "You killed your parents, and you are determined to change Gotham City and save the city from your parents' clutches."

"You used to be so high-spirited, you used to think you could change everything. Then you started growing scales, growing fangs, growing claws."

"As you kill innocent people for the first time, you grow dragon horns, dragon tails, you break jars, and you eventually become a dragon...the thing you once swore to defeat."

"You hang out with people like Speedmaster, Super Queen, Deathstorm, and Johnny Quick. According to your standards, each of them should be a prisoner sent to prison or directly killed. But what you did to them To turn a blind eye. From now on, you just don’t kill criminals. You start recruiting criminals. Ha, how is this different from your parents?”

"I asked them to ban crime in the entire city, and I asked them to help me maintain the high-pressure rule that controls the entire city in order to achieve the goal of completely eradicating crime! I am different from my parents, they are..."

Night Owl was shouting, but the other party ignored his sophistry.

"But you still have a chance to change all this. You have a chance to correct your mistakes." Night Owl heard the Joker say:

"Stop it, old friend. Stop sacrificing others to save yourself."

"The corruption of upright people is as harmful as poisoning public well water." Night Owl heard the Joker say: "You can take your world and Batman to face the Anti-Monitor. You can defeat him."

"Prime Superboy, Dark Emperor, the trump cards you prepared in case of fighting the Anti-Monitor..."

"Why have you never thought about the ending of fighting together with Batman?"

"You will regain your past glory and become a pure good person again."

Night Owl saw the Night Owl who had become him take off his mask and then his armor. He became a half-grown child of fifteen or sixteen years old.

Night Owl knew this child.

The child's name is Thomas Wayne Jr.

At the age of 15, he murdered his gangster parents. He was determined not to give up anyone again, determined to save Gotham City from fire and water, and determined to reshape the world into what he wanted to see.

He was only 15 years old at that time, and countless people were willing to follow him. They were willing to die for him. Even if he was caught by his gangster parents and the last bone in his body was broken, no one was willing to betray him.

Those were the past years, pure as gold and shining like diamonds.

They are gone forever.

Night Owl saw the child reaching out to him.

It was a child's hand, although stained with sinful blood, but very clean, like the clear sky in the evening after the rainy season in Gotham City.

Night Owl also slowly reached out his hand.

It was an adult's hand, stained with an unknown amount of sticky blood, extremely dirty.

His hand grabbed in the air, as if he really wanted to grab the little hand, but in the end... he retracted it.

"What's wrong?"

He heard his young self ask himself in a voice he hadn't heard for many years: "Why?"

Night Owl didn't speak, he closed his eyes and remained silent.

When he opened his eyes again, he found himself back in reality, and the impact of the Joker virus on him had...

disappeared completely.

At least temporarily.

He turned his head to look at the group of universe overlords whose power had been almost drained to the point of disability, and the Batman universe that was almost in front of him on the monitoring screen.

The fusion of the two universes was inevitable, the overall situation had been determined, and it was too late. Their two universes were too close. During the time when he was controlled by the Joker virus, he personally led everything.

The two universes will definitely merge, but this does not mean that he, Night Owl, will definitely lose.

Night Owl's armor created an anti-gravity field and flew him out of the propulsion tower where he was.

Night Owl overlooked the entire Gotham City from high in the sky, and used his imagination to feel the feeling of the cold wind blowing on his face through the mask in the extremely hypoxic environment at high altitude. At this time, the most extreme romanticism in the world was not as good as this moment.

Wind passing through the wilderness, please walk slowly.

I tell you with silence...

I, won't, turn back!
