Chapter 255 Conceptual Weapon to Eliminate You
In the chaos, no one noticed Bruce's little action.
He pushed past the other Batmen and reached the Heart Hunter.
"You are……"
The Heart Hunter glanced at Bruce up and down. As a person with the DNA of the Martian Manhunter, he naturally also possessed the Martian's telepathic ability and was able to identify malicious intent.
He almost subconsciously communicated telepathically with Bruce, and then -
He did not sense any malice, only an extremely sincere heart.
Bruce smiled a bright and sunny smile.
Occlumency works great, he thought.
"My name is Slub, and I'm your fan."
Bruce said, "I am also expanding the world, but I have encountered a problem. I would like to ask you for advice."
That's it...
The Heart Hunter looked not far away and saw the battle between Batman and Ancient One going on.
"Now is not the time." The Heart Hunter said, "Wait until we defeat that bald woman, and then I will answer your question."
Not the time?
Bruce shook his head and said, 'No, now is the time.'
what?
Before the Heart Hunter could react, Bruce's hand was on his back.
"Everyone is petrified." The heart hunter heard these words.
Then, he felt his whole body become extremely heavy and he was unable to move.
He could still see everything that was happening outside and hear the sounds, but he could not do anything.
I couldn't even ask for help.
Bruce supported the Heart Hunter to prevent him from falling. From other people's perspective, everything seemed normal here.
"Well done, Bruce."
Katum praised him and said, "You can take him away now."
"Leave? Don't be in a hurry."
Bruce stared at the scene of Ancient One fighting with Batman with great interest.
“Why would you rush to leave when you have this once-in-a-lifetime learning opportunity?”
What Bruce saw now was Ancient One killing everyone.
She has fought many Batmen, but the Ancient One still walks leisurely and does not feel any pressure.
The Annihilate Batman took the lead and rushed forward.
This is a stitched monster created by the fusion of Duke Thomas, Ra's Owl, and Batman through the Pool of Lazarus. It has a little self-healing ability brought by the Dionysus factor, as well as the super fighting skills of a ninja master.
Also, he is good at naming himself. Batman Destroyer sounds very cool.
Apart from this, there are no other extraordinary abilities worth introducing.
Gu Yi didn't take him seriously at all.
She opened the folding fan in her hand with a snap, and with a light stroke, the place where the Silence Bat was standing was separated from where she was standing.
The stairs on both sides quickly slid apart, and the space seemed to expand infinitely. No matter how fast the Silent Bat ran, it could not reach the reality close to Ancient One.
Every meter he ran, he would get ten meters away from Gu.
Bruce watched from the side and silently took note of Ancient One's method.
I'll have to find a way to crack it later.
Katum also saw it at this moment: "Do you think Ancient One will become your enemy in the future?"
"It's better to be prepared." Bruce said, "I can't waste all these cannon fodder Batmen collecting intelligence for me."
On the other side, Ancient One had already come to the side of the little bat boy.
This Batman is younger than Bruce, only about six or seven years old at most, but because he has various Batmen under his command, he looks terrifying and always shouts for fighting and killing.
But this time, he had met his match.
The kid Bat carries a special bat jet on his back, which allows him to fly flexibly in the air, making it impossible for anyone to catch him.
Gu Yi ignored all that and stretched out his hand to grab in front of him.
In an instant, the distance between the little bat boy and Ancient One was rapidly shortened, and by the time the other party reacted, Ancient One's face was already in front of him.
"Fighting and killing are things that adults can do."
Ancient One's smile did not change from beginning to end, but to the little kid Bat, it was completely the face of a devil.
With a clang, the jet aircraft behind the kid bat was torn into pieces of scrap metal.
The several lamp rings in his hands were also confiscated by Gu Yi.
"Your duty as a child is to study hard." Ancient One said gently, "If I see you not doing your job next time, I will kill you."
"Alas!!!"
The little bat boy no longer had his previous arrogance and started crying bitterly, with his entire face covered with snot and tears.
Ancient One casually opened a space channel and threw the child bat into it.
On the other side of the passage is a world that adheres to order. The races living there should educate the little bats well, telling them not to think about destroying the world at such a young age.
In the blink of an eye, Ancient One had taken care of two Batmen without any effort.
This shocking scene intensified the panic of the other useless Batmen, and they scrambled to escape and return to their own world.
In the blink of an eye, the hall became empty.
Apart from the Heart Hunter controlled by Bruce and the fat Batman who was knocked to the ground, Ancient One only had two opponents left.
The bat of murder, and the bat wizard.
Batman is actually somewhat of a heavyweight figure, and his experience is very interesting. After his parents died, he did not travel around the world, but learned magic from Zatanna and became Batman.
Afterwards, he killed the Demon Overlord, deeply mastered the chaos magic of the DC world, captured the demon Itlegan and bound him to his own soul, causing him to go further and further on the path of magic and become more and more evil.
In addition, the bat wizard's staff is also worth mentioning.
That is not an ordinary staff, the Bat Mage captured the 'ghost' of their world and used it to provide infinite power.
Ghost, God's angel of revenge, is the most powerful magician, and the fact that the Bat Mage was able to capture him is proof of his power.
It’s a pity that such an interesting Batman ended up with such a bad outcome.
During the events of Dark Nights: Death Metal, he was killed instantly by the Laughing Bat, who was resurrected as the Black Knight.
This makes his existence somewhat humorous.
At this time, the Bat Wizard and the Killer Bats had already launched a siege on Ancient One.
The Bat Wizard waved his staff, and the space where the tip of the staff pointed broke into pieces. The fragments of space fell out, and one of the pieces was held in his hand, forming a blade.
He commanded other space fragments to fly towards Ancient One. As long as there was contact, Ancient One would be strangled by the force of space.
Gu Yi swept the folding fan in his hand, and all the furnishings in the hall began to move and reorganize, eventually forming a circular barrier.
A solid piece of ground rose out of nowhere, with a unique symbol on its surface.
The same rune flashed on Ancient One's forehead, representing the dark lord Dormammu. She spread her hands, and the magic fan used in battle shone brightly in her hands.
All space debris was blocked.
The Bat Mage instantly changed his tactics, gripping the Space Fragment Blade tightly and charging forward, while the Killing Bats attacked from the flank.
But Gu Yi's thin physique and actual age obviously make people underestimate her movement speed and physical strength.
She knocked the Murderous Bat to the ground when it was still just an arm's length away. The next moment, she raised her fan to fight back against the Bat Mage's attack.
The power was so great that the Bat Mage felt his hands tremble and become numb. In addition, the fact that a folding fan could easily block the space debris also frightened him.
The Killbats stood up again, but Ancient One had anticipated the pace of their attack.
The crackling fan knocked down the Murderous Bat again. An afterimage of Ancient One's body appeared, and she attacked the Bat Mage at an extremely fast speed.
In a blink of an eye, Ancient One's fan was against the Bat Wizard's neck, and the other party stood still.
At this moment, if Gu Yi could be ruthless and kill him directly, then everything would be solved.
But she didn't.
Compassion prevented Gu Yi from taking ruthless action immediately. She seemed to want to say something, but the other party was not interested in listening.
The Bat Wizard took a sudden step forward, allowing Ancient One's folding fan to pierce his throat, but at the same time, the space fragment blade in his hand had also stabbed out, and was about to pierce Ancient One's body.
At this critical moment——
"Except your weapons!"
Bruce's voice finally rang out, and a conceptual-level disarming spell was cast, hitting the Bat Mage.
The opponent's hand loosened, and the blade of space debris fell to the ground, and the fragments clanged and returned to formlessness.
The battle is over.
The Killing Bat, which was originally thought to be the main force in the battle, performed extremely poorly and was completely defeated by Ancient One in the field of physical combat.
On the contrary, it was the Bat Wizard who was able to fight against Ancient One in terms of magic, and almost tricked Ancient One.
"Thank you, Bruce."
Gu Zhi stood up and couldn't help reflecting in his heart.
Did I underestimate the enemy just now?
Although a piece of space debris would not be able to kill him completely, it would definitely cause serious injuries.
If Bruce hadn't been quick-witted, he would have definitely been caught.
"You don't have to be so polite, Master Ancient One."
Bruce remained calm and picked up the staff that the Bat Wizard had dropped aside.
He had noticed at first glance that there was something wrong with the staff. It was a very evil object and he had to keep it away to prevent it from hurting others.
Gu Yi did not comment on this.
“What should be done with these people?”
The hall had grown quiet, as the other dark Batmen had already assessed the situation and left the castle.
Those who stayed here had long lost their ability to move.
"Just lock him up."
Ancient One said, "There is no shortage of prisons in Kamar-Taj. Lock these people up and see if any accomplices will come to rescue them."
That's definitely not the case, Bruce concluded in his mind.
……
Moments later, Bruce and the Ancient One returned to Kamar-Taj with the captured Batmen.
Bruce didn't care about the other gains from this trip. The most important thing was that he discovered the weakness of Ancient One.
Is compassion a weakness?
That definitely counts.
Bruce thought that if Ancient One was too loving and the two of them really fought in the future, he would tie up Katoom as a hostage and see what Ancient One would do.
Of course, this is just a joke idea.
If I really have to face Ancient One one day, the plan will definitely not be so nonsensical.
Ancient One didn't ask Bruce what he had seen in the castle before, as if she already knew everything.
After imprisoning Batman the Mad, Batman the Silent, Batman the Mage, and Fat Bat, Ancient One specifically left the Heart Hunter to Bruce.
"I have to go rescue the Bat Mage, otherwise he won't survive tonight."
Ancient One said, "The magic he knows is very valuable. I would like to have a good exchange with him."
At this time, the Bat Wizard's throat had stopped bleeding, but he was still seriously injured and might die if he was not careful.
"Don't forget Stark's soul." Bruce reminded.
"Don't worry, I won't forget it."
Furuichi said, "I'm going to be very busy from now on, so if you want to ask this person anything, don't worry about me eavesdropping."
This is considered as Gu Yi's guarantee, and it has strong effect.
Bruce didn't say much, just nodded to show that he understood.
After Ancient One left, Bruce kicked the Heart Hunter to the ground, pulled off his mask, and a green monster-like face appeared in front of him.
Only between his eyebrows can one still see the shadow of Bruce Wayne.
Bruce just hated that.
Every time he encounters a strange-looking Batman, the other person's appearance is always somewhat similar to his own, which makes Bruce inexplicably have a sense of dislocation and feel that he has become a monster.
It was a dark feeling that Bruce couldn't even describe.
Others can't understand it either.
At this point, the Heart Hunter had recovered from the petrification spell, but was still unable to move.
Bruce tied him up with a secret lasso, making it impossible for him to break free.
"It's a pity it's not the Lasso of Truth, otherwise I wouldn't have to go through so much trouble."
Bruce took out a small tin can from his arms, pinched the Heart Hunter's mouth open, and dripped a few drops of liquid into it.
"Okay, from now on, you will only tell the truth."
The tin contained truth serum, which was stolen by Catum from Snape's collection. Bruce hated this kind of crime the most and confiscated it immediately.
Only when Bruce holds this terrible thing called truth serum in his hands can it embody the value of justice.
"Whatever I ask next, you say it."
Bruce said to the Heart Hunter with a smile on his face.
"Well--"
The heart hunter was obviously frightened. He didn't know why, even though the other party was just a child, the feeling of oppression he felt was unprecedented.
Moreover, after being tied up by this black noose, the Heart Hunter's mind was always thinking about the night his parents died.
That was when he was at his most vulnerable, and his psychological defenses were almost nonexistent.
With Bruce's truth serum, he no longer had the thought of lying.
"You killed a Bruce Wayne, didn't you?"
"Yes."
The Heart Hunter said honestly, "The intensity of that world is not very high, and Bruce Wayne is just an ordinary man. It's easy to kill him."
"How did you kill him?" Bruce continued to ask.
"I have the ability to transform into anyone's appearance," said the Heart Hunter. "I transformed into Alfred's appearance, and that Wayne had no defense against me at all."
Hearing this, a vein on Bruce's forehead jumped.
Becoming Alfred?
This despicable method instantly caused an unprecedented murderous intent to surge in his heart.
Heart hunter, you have crossed the line!
