Chapter 142 Bain: People Don't Make the Same Mistake Twice
I am Bain.
I once planned to weaken Batman, which is why I once attacked Arkham Asylum and released all the lunatics.
But it turned out to be a foolish decision. My plan was fine, but I overestimated the determination of those lunatics to fight Batman.
Batman beckoned with his finger, and they came running over like little dogs to serve him. The lunatics he released didn't become my help; instead, they drained my energy.
And there's a mud face.
Ah, yes, that's right, what a ghost.
I've had enough of being fooled by those damn clay figures.
This time, despite my best efforts, I still had a feeling that quite a few Mudfaces had infiltrated my ranks. I knew Batman would definitely try the same trick again, just like he did to me in Gotham. The Mudfaces lurking under my command were definitely a ticking time bomb, ready to stab me in the back at any moment.
Unfortunately, everyone I see now looks like a clay figure, but I have no proof.
After all, I can't just throw someone into a pool anytime to test if they're muddy, and I certainly can't draw blood for testing every minute of every day.
But I could never give up these powers that could weaken Batman for me. Unlike the foolish Shiva who's obsessed with a fair fight, I just want to defeat Batman. As for what methods I used in the process, frankly, I don't care.
Batman's abilities are getting more and more bizarre. It's not that I lack confidence in defeating him in a one-on-one fight, but it's obvious that Batman won't fight me in such an old-fashioned one-on-one match.
He'll definitely use any means necessary, just like he's done countless times before. I'm increasingly realizing that I can't fight Batman alone.
More importantly, from a practical point of view, after I defeat Batman, I will need enough manpower. From an ideal point of view, the "evil" in "conquering all evil" obviously also refers to these criminals.
So the key point is that a person will never make the same mistake twice.
Bain beckoned, and a rat's head slowly crawled out from under his table.
It's a real rat's head, not at all like a duck's neck.
The power of decaying blackness completely controlled it, and the rotting lips made its two front teeth stand out even more. A small green twig grew from the severed neck of the rat, like a spider's leg, crawling around on the ground with the rat's head attached to it.
This should have been a horrifying sight, but Bane was used to it. He controlled the rat's head to hop and jump from the chair onto the table, making squeaking noises.
It's clear that people can learn to be smarter, and people can improve. Becoming stronger isn't Batman's exclusive privilege.
During his time in prison, despite being tormented by the addiction to Titan Venom and experiencing a precipitous decline in his mental capacity due to forced withdrawal symptoms, he never gave up training in the power of decay through sheer willpower.
Unfortunately, this power is too aggressive and can hardly be used to strengthen oneself like the power of the Green of All Things. If this power is forcibly activated, there is even a risk of overpowering the power of the Green of All Things and Amber Gold, causing one's own collapse.
In other words, it can act on other external objects.
Take this mouse, for example. Even though it only has a head left, it doesn't stop Bain from controlling it as easily as he controls his own fingers.
This little guy has transcended the concepts of death and life, becoming a small monster wandering in the realm of the dead, and is controlled by the decaying blackness—Bane.
Bane clearly felt that he could control living people just as he could control this rat, and retain their abilities, just like the three rotten black monsters in the Gotham Massacre Swamp had controlled him and Deathshot and the others.
Therefore, this is the plan.
Lex Luthor, who had partnered with him, had already sold Black out completely, since he was the one who provided the telepath with a large sum of money.
Meanwhile, Bain had already figured out Blake's plan.
Isn't he just waiting for the villains he's gathered to fight Superman and Batman to a standstill, so that he and his Heroes Alliance can step in and reap the benefits?
This is a tactic that Bain often uses. Although it didn't succeed last time, it doesn't mean the tactic is bad, nor does it mean that Bain can't use it well.
To be honest, after figuring out Blake's plan little by little through various means, Bain even felt a bit insulted.
He, Bain, is the one behind the scenes! He, Bain, is the one scheming against others!
He's the one who takes advantage of others; when have others ever had the right to take advantage of him?!
Therefore, he set a new trap, a trap specifically for Blake.
Just before the betting begins, to prevent the Mudman from making a ruse, he'll announce on the spot that he and all the villains will throw the match, inducing Black to show up and clean up the mess. Once they've fought enough, he'll get up from the ground—a tactic exactly the same as his previous Joker act.
So the battle turned into a fight between Black and his enemy. Once they were both badly injured, Bane, who was standing by, would not only be able to gain a Black controlled by the Black Corruption, but also greatly weaken his opponent.
It's worth mentioning that this bet intensified in the underworld, and he bet that Batman and Superman couldn't possibly be unaware of it.
Therefore, according to his calculations, Batman and Superman might switch identities.
In other words, if the identity swap occurs, he, as the leader of the Bat-like villains, will lead his group to attack Superman on the surface, but in reality, it will be Batman. If this doesn't happen, then he will face Superman.
To be honest, he really wanted to face Batman, so he would have a chance to get revenge for his past relationship with the gay man—but no matter who he faced, Bane had prepared a special tool to counter them.
He knew very well that these gadgets wouldn't be enough to defeat Batman or Superman, but he just needed to buy enough time to successfully control Black.
That's right, the key is to conceal the crucial information that he can control Black. Batman would never have thought of that; he's not a god, and no one can predict everything.
From Batman's or Superman's perspective, both he and Black are enemies, and it shouldn't matter who you attack first; this is his chance.
Black's telepathic abilities allow him to distinguish who in the team is the hidden Mudface and who might betray him and surrender to Batman.
If he can successfully eliminate both of them, maintain the purity of the team, and without the ever-present threat of Mudface, he can use the numerous tools he has prepared in advance to target Batman and Superman under the attack of a large number of people...
This time, he will definitely be able to break Batman's back!
……
……
……
"What I mean is, I'm not a god, I can't predict everything."
Chen Tao said to Lucius, "But we can prepare for anything that might happen."
"The Red Hood has already told us when to act."
He said, "I demand that you rush to build enough robots for the Mudface parasite to live on."
He said, "Red Hood will use his special gadgets to take down his good friends when things get chaotic."
"And you have to create a special model to disguise those villains who might be taken down, like a live wire. That robot must have the ability to discharge electricity, just like a real live wire in use."
"When the mud face is parasitized, the live wire will be exactly the same as the original, and even Blake's mental abilities will not be able to distinguish the difference."
"That's right. If a live wire appears capable of discharging electricity, and the memories it reads are still normal memories, then who dares to say it's not a real live wire?"
……
……
……
The nights in the metropolis were so peaceful and serene, unlike anything in Gotham.
"Hey, I'm Atomic Skull."
"The intelligence said Batman would be showing up at Metropolis today. So we're here to wait for him."
Mr. Skeleton said to the electric beauty with her arms crossed:
"Do you know me? Speaking of this betting game we're in, did you see the odds? Everyone's betting on us to beat Batman to a pulp, they don't think they can beat Superman, that's really unlikely."
And this is even including the betting results from Gotham City residents. Actually, I knowingly bet on them even though I knew I'd lose money.
"Then again, they have no chance of winning."
The live wire stood there with his arms crossed: "I'm not interested in betting; I'm just participating in the game. I just hope Batman is as easy to deal with as I expect."
She looked at the Batmobile driving down the street below the rooftop: "A mortal. Despite what everyone says, I'm still..."
But the next second he saw Atomic Skull jump off the rooftop.
Just as the intelligence had predicted, Batman's car appeared at the street corner.
"Oh, come on."
The live wire said, "No foreplay whatsoever, just charging straight into a fight. Are you serious?"
"The Atomic Skull was a very creative experimental accident. We may not be able to rule out the possibility that the experiment interfered with his brain, but as it turned out, he was brave and fierce."
The live wire turned its head and saw Ms. Shiva standing beside it with her arms crossed.
Aren't you going to join in?
The live power line rolled its eyes and then jumped down.
Atomic Skull leaped onto the street, letting out a deafening roar as he spewed atomic rays from his mouth and nose, sending the Batmobile flying backward.
"I'm Atomic Skull, Batman. What are you going to use to fight me?"
He saw Batman jump out of the Batmobile and shoot three batarangs at him.
"Hahaha, stop joking! Batdarts, you think you can defeat me with just three batdarts? What a joke!"
the other side.
Superman also encountered the same attack.
With a deafening roar, the heavy bomb crashed through the wall, pinning Superman, who had just prevented a traffic accident, to the ground.
He swung his fist and slammed it heavily into the unsuspecting Superman, knocking his head into the ground.
"Wow, who would have thought? This is much easier than I expected. I'll probably be moving to the metropolis from now on!"
But such damage was nothing to Superman. He got up from the ground: "If it were me, I wouldn't have gone to an agent so quickly."
A red light appeared in the other person's eyes.
But then the bombshell immediately pulled out a kryptonite from his pocket.
"Just like the rumors say, you have so many tricks I can't even count them all, but guess what?"
He watched as Superman knelt on the ground amidst the green Kryptonite beams.
"Even a super freak like you has a fatal weakness, Achilles' ankle, doesn't he? Anyone who gets their hands on Kryptonite could easily defeat you. I really don't understand why your villains didn't do that."
He cried out:
"Red Hood got a whole bunch of Kryptonite with ease. I was right, it's as easy as buying something at a convenience store!"
With a bang, the other two villainous Eggman brothers, who were holding Kryptonite, ripped off the roadside fence and slammed it down on Superman's head.
"Hahaha, completely vulnerable."
But Superman quickly got back up from the ground.
the other side.
Atomic Skull grabbed Batman by the neck and let out a deafening laugh.
"Haha, hahaha, Batman is just a..."
But he heard Batman whisper, "Come on."
"What did you say?" he asked.
The next second, he was thrown into the air by the high-speed impact of the Batmobile, letting out a violent scream.
He got up from the ground and saw the Batmobile being driven over by Batman's remote control. Batman jumped onto it and stood on the hood.
"How about we test just how hard your atomic skull really is?"
Bain stood at a distance, slowly observing the unfolding battle.
For now, everything seems normal.
Batman did not use any of Superman's abilities.
Atomic Skull grabbed the Batmobile, its wheels spinning but unable to move forward.
"Yes, yes, little bat, just keep going around in circles like this, you can't go anywhere."
A live electrical cord lay nearby: "Oh, actually he'd go somewhere, actually... he should have gone to the morgue a long time ago!"
A violent electric current instantly pierced through the Batmobile, causing a loud explosion. This weapon that Batman had been using to restrain the two super-powered villains had finally come to an end.
On Superman's side.
Superman now appears to be completely overwhelmed by numerous bat-like villains: Bombshell, Almond Core, Eggman Brothers, Big Tent, and one villain after another, almost all wielding a Kryptonite, their green light completely enveloping Superman.
On Batman's side.
Atomic Skull and Living Wire had completely destroyed the Batmobile. That weapon, which was called a car but was actually a tank, was as useless as paper in front of villains of Atomic Skull and Living Wire's caliber.
Bain had been observing both battlefields repeatedly.
"So, who exactly is Superman, and who is Batman?"
