What Bad Thoughts Can Batman Have

Chapter 12: Tradition

Views:

The third-generation Robin Tim Drake was wearing shackles and anklets, sitting in the seat that belonged to Batman in front of the Batcomputer in the Batcave with a sour face, just like a housewife who had just learned that her husband had cheated on her.

"Alfred, there's something wrong with Batman lately. There's definitely, definitely something wrong with him."

He held his throat and said sarcastically: "Ignoring Batman's orders is a traditional skill of almost every generation of Robin, so I'm sorry, dear Tim, I'm afraid I have to lock you up."

Tim wanted to slap himself when he thought about how he was so stupid as to actually hold out his hands when Batman asked him to.

"Hahaha."

Alfred brought over a box of pastries. "It's Robin's job to take a break from time to time. How about a piece of candy? Do you want some taffy or some chocolate?"

"I want them all!"

Tim took the cake sullenly and began to eat it. His voice was a little fuzzy because of too much taffy in his mouth.

"Ah... Thank you! But Alfred, to be honest, I think there might be something wrong with Bruce."

He swallowed a big mouthful of cake.

"Maybe it was mind control, maybe it was a magical soul swap, maybe it was another conspiracy of the Mad Hatter - but I beat him non-stop for two hours and he wouldn't say anything.

In fact, whoever the soul is who now lives in Batman's body, at least... I don't think it's Bruce. "

Young Robin put the empty plate on the table and his expression gradually became serious.

"I have to say, he is the most skilled actor I have ever seen. Even Basil Carroll (the original name of the Clayface, a villain who can transform) would be dumbfounded when he saw him."

Tim paused and continued:

"But even such a great actor can't imitate something he doesn't understand. His understanding of Batman is wrong - Bruce is only human, Alfred."

"No matter how terrifying Bruce appears to outsiders, he is still a mortal. We all know that he is just a mortal. But he turned Batman into a god! A god walking on earth!"

"The spirit, the demeanor, and most importantly the aura - I've seen Bruce get angry more than once, but this knockoff is a hundred times scarier than the original. I feel my heart stop when he looks at me!"

He said irritably, "I have secretly used more than 40 methods to verify his true identity in the past three days, including iris, fingerprint, DNA testing, biological AI logic analysis, gait detection... But no matter how I verify it, he is the original Bruce Wayne!"

He looked at Alfred seriously. "But what? Hiring mercenaries to help him complete the mission of fighting those Arkham lunatics, and taking the initiative to abandon Robin and act alone. Of course, 'abandoning Robin and acting alone' is also Batman's usual style, but this is different."

His eyes grew darker. “And all that retirement nonsense… He’s definitely not Bruce. We should probably arrest him and use a crowbar and a whip to torture him about where the real Bruce is.”

“It’s horrible.”

Chen Tao maintained a bat-like condescending attitude, his heart pounding.

Fortunately, the fake bat scared away the real Bane, and he managed to get through this stage.

The current situation is exactly as he expected. Bane is not a pure warrior, but a cunning hunter.

Before he was sure that Batman was exhausted, he would never confront Batman head-on. In history, he waited for more than three months, allowing Batman to capture the lunatics he released from Arkham one by one, and after he was sure that Batman was completely exhausted, he hid in someone's house to attack. Such a cautious Bane would never start the final duel here.

Chen Tao still has time—before his weak nature is completely exposed.

Chen Tao climbed down from the garbage mountain and walked towards Death Shooter and the others.

Warning! Anchor item "Captain Javelin's Broken Javelin" detected

… Anchor Prop "Slipknot Broken Beloved Lasso"

… Anchor prop “Severed hand of a tattooed man”

Chen Tao paused, looking at the silver-white text that kept popping up on his retina, and fell into deep thought.

What does this mean, huh? I ask you. What does this mean.

Why was it that when my teammate died tragically, I was able to pick up the anchoring item

Breathing, shaking, cold.

Is it possible that I, the Dark Knight, the Caped Crusader, the Protector of Gotham, the greatest detective in the world, the famous Batman, can only make a living by extorting gold coins from my teammates

Looking at his teammates' belongings, Chen Tao felt a lump in his throat, and a poet's sadness welled up in his heart.

No! Never!

Superheroes must have backbone!

Even if I die, I will never pick up the bodies of my teammates!

"… "

Half a second later, Chen Tao licked the bag with tears in his eyes.

Forget it. Batman beating up his teammates is an old tradition of the Justice League anyway, so these few won’t make a difference.

The broken javelin of the javelin captain: Gunter Braun used it to win several gold medals in the Olympics. Although it is now headless, the remaining material is just enough to make a flag pole.

"This javelin is my wife!"

Chen Tao then realized that not only was Captain Javelin's villa missing, but his wife was also a javelin. He should have thought of it earlier. How could a man like Javelin have a wife? The villains in the DC universe all have some mental problems to some extent.

Slipknot's Broken Beloved Lasso: Christopher Weiss doubts everything, but he is confident in his rope. In the lonely night, he even uses the rope to stab people. Whenever he ties someone up, the corners of his mouth always curl up slightly, and a confident smile appears on his face.

“Oh, ah, oh, oh wow wow — the lasso responded to me… I trusted its judgment.”

This one is even more important.

Chen Tao decided not to hire such a pervert again, especially since he had killed himself.

The Broken Hand of the Tattooed Man: John Oakes used to be an ordinary sailor until he was imprisoned for fighting and met the first generation of tattooed man Abel Tarrant in prison. He has always kept the anchor tattoo he got when he was a sailor on his arm to commemorate his youth.

"It's slippery. Let me tell you, the deck is really slippery!"

Converted Crisis Energy Units: 10

Chen Tao was speechless. Those three weaklings only transformed 10 crisis energies for him in total. The three of them combined only transformed as much as the ventriloquist had transformed for him before.

But how is this crisis energy calculated? Any of these three people can fight the ventriloquist equally, so why is it only converted a little

Warning! None of the three anchored objects you have found the target Batman! You will be randomly matched with three weak and low-level Batmen...

Already matched: Batman

Consume 1 unit of Crisis Energy to synchronize

Chen Tao noticed that unlike the previous Batmobile, this time the Batman matched had a small silver-white description below it:

Batman, who was about to die in a dark multiverse, reincarnated his memory into a baby's body, thus obtaining the baby's body. Later, because his head was too heavy, he accidentally fell down the stairs and died while trying to walk upright.

Danger level: No level

Chen Tao's face suddenly turned dark. What's the point of becoming a top-heavy baby? Will the villain let him go if he acts cute and coquettish

But don’t!

Immediate synchronization has been abandoned. The data has been saved. You can synchronize this Batman at any time by consuming one unit of Crisis Energy

Matching again... Success

Already matched: Batman

A Batman from a certain dark multiverse bought the entire Gotham City, turned the city into his medieval serf estate, and was then killed by Superman as a villain.

"… "

Chen Tao was too weak to complain. Superman actually killed people. What a cruel and twisted world!

Out of sync!

Matching again... Success

Already matched: Mayor Bat

Bruce Wayne in a certain dark multiverse did not become Batman, but became the mayor of Gotham. He was assassinated and his head was hung on the gargoyle of Wayne Tower to warn people not to go against the gang.

"… "

Another useless ability. Chen Tao sighed and then turned his gaze to the three seriously injured people lying on the ground.
