Chapter 578 Why can’t we join forces with the Joker?
"If the Black Death Emperor wants to descend into a universe, he needs three conditions."
The Laughing Bat said.
He manipulated the image of himself that he had condensed with stone. The stone bust directly chose the upper body to rise into the air from below the chest and abdomen, and the lower body turned into gravel again and fell to the ground: "Sorry, this may save me some strength."
A pure lie and a complete fart.
They just use the excuse of lack of strength to change their image. Human beings are visual animals. No one will be afraid of a disabled beggar begging on the street, but everyone will have the most basic psychological defense against a tall and strong man.
Therefore, a halfling floating in the air looks more harmless than a 1.8-meter stone man standing in front of him.
Laughter lowers the vigilance of others all the time, even in the smallest details.
He floated slowly in front of Chen Tao, and then floated above the unconscious magician Faust on the ground.
Zatanna next to her whispered to Chen Tao: "Don't tell me, you are not suspicious at all."
The Laughing Bat obviously heard Zatanna's words, but he didn't seem to care.
He controlled the stone bust to float in front of Zatanna, and said, "Hey hey hey. Don't think I can't hear what you're whispering."
He circled Zatanna twice, like an elf floating in the air.
"In fact, I can completely understand that you have doubts about me, a stranger you just met. But my purpose is just to tell you the facts and help you analyze, and the final decision is still yours."
Laughing wildly and pretending to be magnanimous, Chen Tao saw that Zatanna relaxed a little visibly. Her vigilance was slightly broken, and even Zatanna herself didn't notice it.
Chen Tao watched the laughing performance and Zatanna's relaxation with cold eyes.
Zatanna was charmed by Laughter, which was good, as it made Laughter arrogant and tricked him into thinking he was also manipulating Chen Bat.
The Laughing Bat floated back to Faust's head.
"First of all, the first condition. A spokesperson, the original Black Lantern Corpse, unveils the prelude to the Blackest Night."
The Laughing Bat gave an example: "Like William Hand of the main universe, and Faust who is lying here now. But now Faust is finished, and the Emperor Clown will provide another one for the Black Death Emperor: your world The clown."
"Ho ho ho..."
Halfway through the Laughing Bat's words, Faust below him sounded like he was about to expire. Inhaling and laughing, the bat acted as if it was startled, and then quickly floated away.
"Faust is bound tightly! (Faust is bound tightly)"
Zatanna took the initiative, and Faust, who was half-dead, was accidentally strangled by the translucent white tentacles reinforced on his body and almost spit out his tongue.
Chen Tao stopped Zatanna from continuing to kill Faust because he was kind.
Well, not really. Mainly because if Faust is killed here, it will only allow Faust to borrow the Black Death Emperor's magic and then fight with them.
Looking at Faust, Chen Tao even had some ideas. If he imprisons the other party at the highest level, then kills him and turns him into a Black Lantern Corpse, then Faust will become the spokesperson of the Black Death Emperor in the current universe, trying to trigger the Blackest Night, but he is trapped Lived.
So can he just stick to this bug and delay the approaching dark night indefinitely...
Chen Tao laughed dumbly. The Black Death Emperor was not an idiot. He knew that Faust had been caught by him and chose him as his spokesperson. The other party was caught? Of course, change it to another one!
Moreover, this kind of spokesperson is not a virtuous minister like William Hand, who was destined to be a wise minister. Once the Black Death Emperor finds that the other party is trapped, he can completely drain away the power and then find a new one.
Anyway, they are not William Hand, it would be the same with anyone else. It is nothing more than a matter of strength and weakness. But no matter how weak it is, it’s better than being trapped, right?
"Although the Emperor Clown is still trapped in the hyper-time flow at this time, he is special and can interfere with reality more than those trapped timeline powerhouses."
(Note: The specific reasons are mentioned in the previous chapter, and the troublemakers still exist in the current timeline)
"Therefore, never doubt his ability to control your cosmic clown." The Laughing Bat said: "If he gives that clown as a gift to the Black Death Emperor, then the other party will get a black lantern corpse that can modify reality. . The ability to manipulate reality given to the clown in your world by the Emperor is his gift to the Black Death Emperor."
"Then, I think I need to show my value and provide you with information that you didn't know before."
The Laughing Bat said: "The Emperor Clown controls the three clowns to return to your world and start causing trouble. It is not just the most common happy game between Bruce and the clowns. It also contains a plan to accelerate the arrival of the Black Death Emperor."
Laughter stopped for a moment when he said this, and then looked at Chen Tao.
Zatanna was confused.
Chen Tao glanced at him from the corner of his eye.
Deliberately swallowing the answer that was about to come out, and then letting Chen Batt, who was standing next to him, speak out the answer he wanted to say, giving the other party the illusion that "this is the result I came up with after thinking", which will make it easier to follow up. Manipulation?
Oh, yes, there is a natural Pengzi next to him who can't think of anything, and the effect is even better.
"The arrival of the Black Death Emperor requires the Blackest Night, and the occurrence of the Blackest Night requires the civil war of the seven major lantern groups. The emotional spectrum of the universe is shaken through the attacks between different colored lights."
Chen Tao said: "Now among the lanterns created by the seven-color emotional spectrum, the purple lantern is me. The green and yellow lanterns are suppressing the order of the universe on oa star. The red lanterns led by Atrocitas are hiding behind them. "
"Blue lantern. The blue color of hope has not yet been cast. There has never been a blue lantern ring in the entire universe. Rings forged by this color of light currently do not exist in our universe."
The Laughing Bat said: "That's why he sends clowns to die again and again, and is constantly captured by your Justice League. In the final analysis, your universe is a defective product, and your universe should be destroying itself. Previously, the essence of the entire dark multiverse was concentrated to support a powerful individual, but you, you ended this fate, but this does not mean that your Justice League will be any stronger. "
"I would make a bold guess. Most of the time, your Justice League is at a stage where they can only attack you. They can neither join forces with you to help you defeat the enemy, nor are they strong enough to fight alongside you. .
And the enemies you have to fight are also in a short period of time, from the demon meat man who overturned the tank to the dragon Barbatos who has absorbed most of the power of the World Forger. You are participating in things on the multiverse level, and Your Justice League can no longer keep up with you. Oh, right, they are not the idealistic warriors of the main universe. They are defective, mortal. "
"You'd better not be so rude." Zatanna said next to her: "They are all my friends!"
"That's why your Justice League is trying to prove themselves. They're trying to catch up with you."
Laughing wildly, he said: "They have never seen the hope of success, but today, the Black Death Emperor will bring them a little bit of blue hope."
He said: "I know what you are thinking now. You are thinking now, if you did not let your Justice Lian Meng go out to solve the problem alone, but worked with them, would you be able to solve the current problem? But very soon Pity."
"Whether you are with them or not, your Justice League's desire to prove itself in front of you is still there and hot, and the existence of such an idea will definitely lead to the forging of the Blue Lantern Ring. Black Death Emperor is just It speeds up the process, rather than fabricating it out of thin air.”
"And this then involves the second condition I mentioned, enough black lights."
"When your living teammates attract blue lanterns, their existence is meaningless. The forged blue lanterns will find a suitable host in the universe on their own, just like every green lantern ring."
Chen Tao immediately realized what kind of dilemma he was in:
Now the Justice League is fighting a fierce battle with the Joker who uses the ability to modify reality. The other party has even turned Wonder Woman into a magical female pig, jumping up and fighting the opponent with a sword in her mouth.
Once Chen Tao goes and solves their difficulties, the Blue Lantern Corps will be forged out of thin air immediately because of this victory.
And if Chen Tao is ruthless and allows his teammates to fall to death...
"Then all your teammates will become black lantern zombies, and one of them will be worth countless ordinary ones."
Yes, that's right, Chen Tao listened silently to what the other party said.
In this situation, no matter what he does, it will speed up the arrival of the Black Death Emperor.
"And the last sentence of the three conditions is a powerful enough corpse that can serve as the central energy battery of the Black Light. If before that, I would tell you that the target of the Black Death Emperor is the Anti-Monitor wandering in the Dark Multiverse, The Black Death Emperor wants to recruit him, but now that the Anti-Monitor has become the Dragon of the Anti-Monitor, the Black Death Emperor will not turn against Barbatos for such a battery. "
“So what’s your battery solution?”
Chen Tao asked.
"Not yet." He laughed wildly.
"But as for the solutions to the previous two problems, I have already figured it out." He said: "As for stopping the battery... I haven't got the information yet on what the Black Death Emperor will use as a battery. I will continue to pay attention to this, Then I will inform you. Believe me, I will always be on your side.”
Chen Tao was silent.
On the surface, he smiled slightly at the Laughing Bat, and kept saying "Senior" in his mouth, making out like a beautiful girl with shiny dandruff in a two-dimensional drama, and then scolded the Laughing Bat in his heart. Shower head.
Damn maniacal laugh, an orphan without a whole family, a pure liar, with a mouth open and not a single word of truth in his two sentences.
Since the Blackest Night cannot be stopped, changing the candidates more and more will only make it more difficult for you.
Every word of The Laughing Bat guides Chen Tao to do what he imagined.
Of course, Chen Tao cannot let all his friends turn into black lantern corpses. Then blue lanterns will exist, and one of the prerequisites for the Blackest Night has been completed.
And if he solves the clown, it seems to solve the problem, but the Black Death Emperor and the Emperor Joker behind him have not been damaged at all. They still want to invade Chen Tao's universe, then the Black Death Emperor will and The Emperor Clown was completely licentious, causing troubles that Chen Tao couldn't control.
The plan proposed by the Laughing Bat is not good for Chen Tao, the Black Death Emperor, or the Emperor Joker. He played a little trick in it. At most gambling tables, the dealer will let the gambler win a few times, so that the other party will be completely trapped and addicted. In the end, most of them will spit out all their previous winnings.
The Laughing Bat deliberately misled Chen Tao to think that "regardless of whether what the Laughing Bat said is correct, but he wanted to gain my trust at the beginning, so he must be telling the truth." This kind of inducement is an insurance. No matter how much trust his previous actions have gained from Batman, once the other party is deceived by his inducement, he will have a high degree of trust in the information he just gave - even if you want to lie to me in the future, at least the first shot is a sugar-coated bullet, right?
But on the contrary, he was lying at the beginning. The first time he shot at the other party was not a sugar-coated bullet, but a poisonous arsenic bullet.
If someone picks up the bullet with the intention of eating candy and licks it, I am afraid he will be poisoned unknowingly, hehe.
This is a case of the dark under the lamp, which is very clever and can be easily overlooked by inertial thinking.
And Chen Tao has already made a plan.
In the pile of half-true and half-false information given by Crazy Laugh, in order to grasp the truth, he must make an action that Crazy Laugh cannot predict.
He wants to give Crazy Laugh a little clown shock. While Crazy Laugh is constantly guiding others, he has not made any mistakes.
For example, he made a classic mistake: he firmly believed that Chen Tao was Batman.
The Laughing Bat is also Bruce. He used Bruce's ideas to infer Chen Tao's behavior, and then came to a plausible conclusion, and then made plans based on these conclusions.
This mistake has been made by Luther, Bane, and Night Owl. Every villain who thinks he knows Batman has made this mistake. To some extent, this can even be said to be a first sight kill.
So, what Chen Tao is thinking in his mind now is:
Why can't we join forces with the Joker?
(Note: Even in the original story, Batman himself has worked with the Joker many times when facing a threat beyond imagination. The old Bat himself is very aware of priorities. If working with the Joker can save the world, then Batman will do it no matter how disgusted he is. The dramatic thing is that the Joker likes this the most, and working with Batman almost makes him climax.)
