Chapter 575 The Dark Multiverse Resistance Army is established, leader: Laughing Bat
"As you can see, I am also a Bruce."
The Laughing Bat had thought about how to deceive the Bruce in front of him many times, and he reminded himself many times in his heart...
Never treat the Bruce in front of him as a defective product struggling to survive under his hands.
This Bruce is already about 1/4 of the Dragon of the Dark Multiverse. The Laughing Bat has to admit that he is very likely the strongest Bruce born in the entire Dark Multiverse.
And this limits the plans that the Laughing Bat can take.
To be honest, at the beginning, the Laughing Bat did not think about fabricating a character that had never appeared to gain the other party's trust.
For example, the Windbreaker Fighter, a third-rate character in the Dark Multiverse gradually grows into a warrior who resists the crisis of the entire Dark Multiverse. How about this script?
Or... another Bruce who resists Barbatos? As long as the Laughing Batman puts away the smile on his face and takes off his dark metal goggles, he is the real Bruce. He was once the Batman who upholds justice in their world. No one knows how to play a righteous Bruce better than him.
Oh, by the way, the righteous Bruce in the perfect world in the dark multiverse is a little unreliable...
It can also add some other elements to its story besides the death of both parents, such as Bruce surviving a destroyed world?
He can show it in various ways, such as resentment? Or sadness and determination? He can weave a strict lie to make the Batman Dragon in front of him believe from the bottom of his heart that he and he share the same suffering.
But in the end, the Laughing Batman did not adopt these plans, but chose to meet him directly in his true form without any disguise, and even did not take off the dark goggles. There are reasons for this.
In the infinite dark multiverse, only a very few Bruces did not inherit Batman's mantle, and most of the Bruces who became Batman, except for some individual cases, are real performance experts and interrogation masters.
Batman even manages several different identities to cover up his superhero career, such as the most famous identity Match Malone.
Two masters of disguise get together. If the Laughing Bat is really stupid enough to manage a fake identity in front of the Batman in front of him like he managed Match Malone, he may be able to deceive for a while, but over time, even if it is only a dozen minutes, there will be a risk of being exposed.
What is more worthy of vigilance is that the other party has seized 1/4 of the authority of the Dragon of the Dark Multiverse, that is, the other party has the most basic ability to interfere with fate.
Maybe it is not possible to weave fate as casually as Barbatos, but slightly deviate a little from the fate woven by others, or add some tiny variables... maybe it can barely be done?
Simply put, the other party has such ability, but can't do it now, just not knowing how to do it.
Just like humans with normal IQ can learn basic mathematics as long as they study hard, but cats and dogs with insufficient brain capacity cannot understand the essence of numbers no matter how hard they try.
This is a change in life form. The Laughing Bat does not intend to gamble on the extent to which the other party has developed the ability of the Dark Multiverse Dragon, and whether he can look back at his past from the grand perspective of the Dark Multiverse.
Therefore, as the former Batman who knows Batman best in the entire multiverse, the way of deception chosen by the Laughing Bat is-
"... I am Bruce, I used to be Batman... I accidentally killed the Joker and was infected... I tried to save myself, but unfortunately the leaked Joker virus eventually destroyed my world... All this is the fate compiled by Barbatos, and it is also the inevitable result of our broken universe. I was confused and threw myself into Barbatos's army..."
"But you... you!"
Chen Tao watched the Laughing Bat take off his metal goggles.
One corner of his mouth was raised, while the other corner was drooping, as if he was neither crying nor laughing. He looked like a savior who was sad and sad, had experienced many vicissitudes of life, but saw the dawn of hope.
Most of what the Laughing Bat said was true - indeed.
The best lie is to tell only part of the truth.
Did the Laughing Bat lie? Strictly speaking, no.
He did explain his origin to Chen Tao, and the destruction of his universe was completely true. He said that his Justice League died, but he did not say that he killed them himself.
He said that he worked for Barbatos, but he did not say that he enjoyed it, but led the people who heard this sentence to think that he was forced.
Once some key information is hidden by the Laughing Bat, the whole thing will be led to the opposite of the truth in the ears of the audience.
This is just the most basic means for the propaganda machine to fool the public, but it is played to perfection in the hands of the Laughing Bat, and people can't help but be led by him.
"I originally thought that all this was the fate of the dark multiverse, and I had already accepted it!"
The tears flowed from the eyes of the puppet made of remote stone. Chen Tao took out a tissue from somewhere and handed it to him out of sympathy, although even he didn't know why a puppet made of remote stone would need a tissue.
The stone puppet Laughing Bat naturally took the tissue that Chen Tao created with the green of all things, and then naturally wiped the non-existent tears on his cheeks with the tissue: "I lost my temper..."
He said: "I originally thought that the destruction of my universe was just a ghost caused by Barbatos, so I once wanted to take revenge on Barbatos, but then I realized that our universe was incomplete from the beginning, so no matter what Without Barbatos, the tragedy of our world would have happened."
He said: "This makes me despair. For the first time, I lost someone to take revenge. I was corrupted by Barbatos and did many bad things."
Chen Tao who was listening next to him nodded repeatedly, he was so right.
He has done hundreds of millions of bad things, and there is nothing wrong with him.
The Laughing Bat was still grieving, and Chen Tao was watching quietly from the side.
"I deeply hate myself as I am now, but I can no longer escape from the clutches of Barbatos, so I can only make mistakes like this. But your existence proves to me that even if you are born in the dark multiverse It’s not like you can’t change your destiny!”
Chen Tao, who was listening nearby, was almost moved. The Laughing Bat really has two brushes. If Chen Tao hadn't known what kind of beast the Laughing Bat is from reading the comics, just based on his story of "being inspired and returning to justice", Chen Tao would have Tao estimated that there was still a chance that he would be deceived.
After all, it is human nature to persuade bad guys to do good and to drag good people into trouble.
"Even if our world is inherently incomplete, we can still make up for the imperfections and save the world!"
good! Well said, so damn hot-blooded.
Chen Tao nodded while listening.
Look at people laughing wildly, how enlightened they are, how powerful these words are, to be enlightened, to be enlightened, to be redeemed, to be redeemed, the character management of the prodigal son who will turn back for money is so croaking, Chen Tao even wanted to stand up and applaud him.
"For millions of years, no one has ever truly been able to resist the power of Barbatos in the Dark Multiverse. You are the first person to do so, and you are also the first person in the Dark Multiverse to save your own incomplete universe. It’s almost like destiny.”
The Laughing Bat's praise of people is getting more and more limitless, and it's still destiny.
If the other party hadn't been talking to him remotely with a stone puppet on his head, Chen Tao would have wanted to kill the other party directly to get rid of this scourge.
It's a pity that Kuangxiao was extremely cautious and only remotely controlled a pile of rocks and did not reveal his true identity in front of him. It was really a pity.
As the leader of the Dark Knights, Barbatos has of course given the Laughing Bat some of the ability to modify reality, so manipulating these stones is naturally easy. For a long period of time, the Laughing Bat will continue to have this weird superpower given to him by Barbatos, until Barbatos is completely defeated.
The Laughing Bat talked for a long time, and finally came to the really important content: "Be careful, this is why I risk being discovered by Barbatos, and I came here to warn you. The clown in front of you is not your biggest threat. ”
Although the Laughing Bat grinned, his voice was serious. He really sounded like a righteous companion who was worried about Chen Tao from the bottom of his heart.
"Your actions shocked the hyper-time flow, and on a certain timeline of the hyper-time flow, our greatest enemy, the clown, has undergone an ultimate evolution."
"If you've ever heard of Troublemaker, the King of the Fifth Dimension, you'll know that he is Superman's primary enemy."
"Troublemaker has been active in the main universe until several universe reboots. He will pick trouble with Superman every 90 days or so. But for Troublemaker, it's just a fun game and a good time. ”
"Trick-or-treaters would laugh at Superman's mistakes, playing games like Superman tricking the trick-or-treaters into saying their names backwards, and then the trick-or-treaters would be sent home to do it again and again."
"Although Troublemaker didn't know what Superman thought, at that time Superman gave Troublemaker a lot of new opportunities and allowed old-fashioned people to accept new things. In other words, Troublemaker became bored. And then, he had A great idea—at least it looks good on paper.”
"Troublemaker went to meet the Joker at his home, a home away from Arkham Asylum."
"The Joker's career at the time was dedicated to driving Batman crazy, so Troublemaker thought, just for fun, what if he gave the Joker his power and unleashed it in the main universe?"
Chen Tao listened quietly.
"Troublemaker's original intention was just to see how others did his job. But Troublemaker was not stupid at first. He planned to only give the clown 1% of his power."
Chen Tao said: "Then the incident taught the troublemaker a lesson, making him realize that although the clown's head is crazy, it does not mean that he is not smart."
"Yes." The Laughing Bat said: "At that time, the clown in the main universe tricked the troublemaker into telling him his secret name. Because of this, the clown took away 99.9% of the troublemaker's power."
"About 69 seconds later, the Joker used his imagination to reshape the then DC main universe and stuffed the troublemaker in a closet on the moon so that he could live a miserable life without any interference. life.”
"He became the Emperor Joker and even attempted to obliterate reality for a time. Although he was eventually defeated and the heroes restored reality, this timeline was permanently preserved in the hyper-time stream."
The Laughing Bat said: "I am here to warn you. What you have done has liberated the monsters on the super-time flow, allowing them to escape from their own timeline and try to interfere with the current situation through the super-time flow. Reality. The three clowns who are now active in your universe are proof of that."
"But even so, the Emperor Clown cannot easily cross the barrier of the super-time flow and come to the current reality. He still needs the help of strong people who can act in the current reality."
The Laughing Bat said with all his heart: "He went to find Barbatos, but Barbatos asked him to come to reality on his own before he would consider cooperating with him. Therefore, we don't need to face the power of Barbatos yet. "
"But I just got the news that the Emperor Clown has now reached an alliance with the Black Death Emperor at the same time. Since the failure of setting off the Blackest Night in the main universe, the Black Death Emperor has not been thinking about continuing to set off waves of death in many worlds and growing stronger. His power will then invade the main world again. Therefore, your world will be among his targets from the beginning."
"After the Emperor Clown persuaded him in some way that I don't know clearly, they have now joined forces in fact, but don't worry, I have already thought of one..."
Finally, we have to come to this point. The map of Yan State is so long, and it is time to take out the dagger here.
Chen Tao silently waited for what the Laughing Bat would say.
The Laughing Bat himself has no good intentions. He has no intention of uniting with Batman to fight against the Emperor Joker. If possible, he only hopes that Batman and the Emperor Joker will die together.
And his current plan is similar.
He needs to trick Batman into fighting the Emperor Joker in his way, and then at the critical moment, transport Batman directly to the upper reaches of the hypertime stream to face the Emperor Joker, and then 1/4 of the Dragons of the Dark Multiverse will confront him. The Emperor Joker, who possesses the power of five-dimensional creatures, fights in the super-time stream. In the end, the Batman of this universe dies. The Emperor Joker loses a lot of energy and is no longer able to peep downstream. This is what he planned to trap Batman to death. …
"Indeed, the alliance between the Emperor Clown and the Black Death Emperor is a very serious problem."
The Laughing Bat's words were temporarily interrupted. He saw that Batman's face turned serious. Very good, this is indeed what he wanted to see.
"We're going to build the Dark Multiverse Resistance."
That's right, there's nothing wrong with him, he's very motivated, which is exactly what he needs from the other person.
"Senior, why don't you become the leader of the Dark Multiverse Resistance Army?"
