Chapter Seventy-Six: The Battle with the Joker and the Day It Begins
The only two people standing in Arkham Asylum are the angry Batman and the Joker who is constantly teasing and stimulating Batman's nerves. Obviously, the Joker already knew what happened to Gordon, and the completely isolated Arkham Asylum had become an excellent petri dish for viruses, and the sick and guards who fell to the ground were the best source of infection.
The reason why Batman is still standing here is also because he only inhaled a trace amount of the virus at the beginning, and put on a mask at the first time, relying on his body that has been exercised to the limit, and his strong immunity resists the invasion of this unknown virus. And the Joker, maybe from the very beginning, was vaccinated, knocked down the Joker, everything is still redeemed, Batman must think so, he must find a reason for himself not to kill the Joker!
"Tut-tut, Batboy, there's something wrong with your eyes." The Joker looked at Batman who was glaring at him, and he was constantly provoking there, causing Batman's anger, "Let me think, what do you want to do now, you want to arrest me, use my blood, and see if you can extract antibodies and make a vaccine?" Batboy, you always think things are so simple, do you think, I, need that kind of thing?
I could spend an entire day with you like this, but what about Director Gordon, he should be pretty much the same by now. What do you think he will look like when he dies? The lungs began to erode, and then the whole person lay there like a puddle of rotten meat, and soon, the flies would fly to him, rubbing their little hands, ready to lay eggs on him, a breeding ground for fresh and delicious food, just right for nurturing offspring, oh, poor Gordon, he couldn't even see his daughter for the last time, speaking of which, he hadn't seen Barbara Gordon for a long time~
You say, am I an alternative to meeting parents? Haha, hahaha! ”
The Joker's pretense, the tone of silence pretending to be for Gordon made it impossible for Batman to look at it all with a calm mind. Because of the Joker, because of his own negligence, he was about to lose a dear friend, and the guy who caused all this was constantly mocking his dear friend, mocking everything that his dear friend had given to the city, and even taking the pain that had been inflicted on Gordon as a joke.
This made Batman angry, and his anger turned into substance at this moment.
"Joker!"
With a roar, Batman stepped forward with an arrow, clenched his fists, and swung towards the clown's face, enough to smash the car door into the clown's face. But it just made the Joker spit out a mouthful of blood and take a few steps back, this kind of attack that was enough to make the Joker ineffective with a single punch in the past, but now it is painless for the Joker, just like Batman fought the Joker on the island before.
Wipe the blood off your lips and rub it on the sides of your cheeks to make the red makeup on your mouth a little more vibrant. With a somewhat arrogant smile, the Joker also launched a counterattack towards Batman, not losing the power of Batman's attack, and the speed hit Batman, which also gave the Joker a little bit of confidence in entanglement with Batman.
As the two old enemies, they also fought in the Arkham Asylum, and at this time, there was no Batman on his body who could be used to turn defeat into a victory mechanism, relying on his own body that had been tempered and battled for a long time. The Joker, on the other hand, relies on the bonuses brought by the unique W that represents combat mastery and even the invincible single Joker, constantly narrowing the gap with Batman.
Such a battle is no longer the same as before, with Batman directly subduing the Joker with his own powerful force after cracking the Joker's conspiracy. Starting from the Joker's inexplicable release, everything runs in an unknown direction, Batman is caught off guard by the Joker, and the person who secretly helps the Joker, a biochemical virus that he has not discovered at all, a sudden attack, and makes him face this crisis without any backhand.
And this crisis also caused him to lose a close friend. This kind of anger makes Batman combat power in the battle with the Joker, how can the Joker's fighting skills be stronger than him, how about the strength close to him, he has come this way, his fighting skills are not much different from him, and there are fewer enemies stronger than him, and in the end, they have all become his own defeated men, and he has already fought with the Joker once.
Even if the clown has constant learning, constantly improving fighting skills, strength. But there are some things that you can't learn for a short time, for example, in combat, familiarity with certain parts of the human body can make your attacks work in unexpected ways. Just like now, he can take on the Joker even without the Batarang and all sorts of surprising gadgets.
Easily dodging the corrosive liquid released by the Joker on the suit brooch, and grasping the Joker's flaw, Batman stepped forward and slashed the Joker's jaw with a slap. What was struck was the vagus nerve hidden in the jaw area, and only a certain amount of force was needed to make a two-meter strong man faint directly, even if it was a clown.
No matter how crazy he is, he is still a human being, a crazy human being. Batman's attack made the Joker, who was originally planning to deal with Batman, lose his strength suddenly, and his whole body softened directly. But he still retained consciousness, and was directly grabbed by the collar by Batman and brought to the front.
"Where is he! The man who helped you, the one who led it all, where is he! Angry faces approached the Joker, and Batman asked the clown.
At the same time, he also grabbed the clown's temporarily lost hand, and broke one of the clown's fingers with a forceful blow.
The pain of the ten fingers made the Joker let out a nervous laugh, and the pain kept the Joker awake, looking at Batman's angry and helpless expression, which stimulated Batman.
"What are you talking about, Batboy, I've been playing with you all the time. What's wrong? Did old Gordon's death make you miserable? Yes, after all, this is the last conversation you'll have with old Gordon, sorry, I can't save him, or how about I tell you a joke to make you happy? ”
The Joker didn't confess to himself at all, but the attitude that stimulated himself made Batman feel angry, and at this time, he couldn't pry the information out of the Joker's mouth at the first time, the only thing he could do was to press the Joker on the table, and prick the blood drawing tool brought out from the infirmary on the Joker, he had to gamble to see if the Joker had antibodies to this unknown virus.
"You're hurting me, Batboy, it's not good to be too rough, Uncle Clown is very angry~"
Even after being so brutally drawn by Batman, the Joker still maintained his vitality, with a mocking tone, and the finger that was originally broken by Batman was unconsciously healing. From the perspective of violating the structure of human joints, he punched Batman directly behind him, and Batman, who didn't expect the Joker to have this move, was just blown away by his punch, and the force of the hit on Batman exceeded just now.
With just one punch, Batman glides through the air and hits the wall, and the falling rubble also causes secondary damage to Batman. Half-kneeling on the ground, the injury caused by the Joker's punch also made Batman unable to suppress it, and a mouthful of blood spat out of his mouth, and the mask that was originally combined with his half-covered mask fell, exposing himself to the air full of unknown viruses.
The wound to the chest caused Batman to begin to breathe heavily, inhaling the unknown viruses that were free of air into his body. Looking up at the clown who punched him, the right hand with a twisted anti-joint had been restored to its original state, and the clown was also in front of him, turning into another appearance, black, simple skin, straight figure, the only thing that remained unchanged was that even if he changed, he did not change the mask of his smile.
"Joker..."
With a little unwillingness, Batman also slowly lost consciousness under the attack of the Joker, he counted all the plans of the Joker, but he did not count the skill of transformation of the Joker. The vision in front of him gradually darkened, and the whole person fell to the ground, at this moment, a strong arm supported Batman, but at this time Batman was unconscious, unable to see who was pulling him.
But the Joker saw that this was a guy dressed in a similar outfit to Batman, but compared to Batman's black, the guy holding Batman was wearing dark blue armor. This made the Joker puzzled and a little angry, because in his eyes, there was only one Batman, and now, someone actually pirated his own Batman.
"Gee, it's still rare to see you so embarrassed, Batman, but also, you definitely wouldn't have thought that there would be so many things in the past few days, but don't worry, it's not over yet, we still have to fight."
With a somewhat comforting tone, Kewen, who was wearing an armor similar to Batman, carried Batman on his shoulders, and didn't even bother with the Joker, so he planned to leave with Batman. This feeling of directly ignoring himself makes the Joker angry, and what he hates most is that no one pays attention to him.
"Hey, I said you, have you forgotten that there are people here?"
Kewen didn't respond, just helped the unconscious Batman to walk outside, on his way, there were already corpses, these patients infected with an unknown virus, the guards, did not escape the clutches of this unknown virus created by Elliott with the help of the virus memory. Before Kewen arrived, he had already lost his life, and at this time, Kewen could only clench his fists and leave without looking back, because Gotham still needs Batman.
"Hey, I said you, have you forgotten that there are people here?"
The clown, who repeated this sentence again, also rushed up directly at this moment and attacked Ke Wen, who had his back to him, and Ke Wen's response was also very simple, without looking back, he swung his fist and collided with the clown's fist, and the strong force was released from the two of them, and the clown was also knocked out in such an impact, knocking out a big hole in the wall and disappearing.
"Don't worry, I'll settle the accounts with you guys, and I'll be here tonight, Ciao, clown."
said a word to the clown who was punched away by himself, and Curvin took Batman out of Arkham Asylum, and this Arkham Asylum, after Cowen left with Batman, kept exploding, which were all bombs planted by Kewen when he infiltrated Arkham Asylum, this madhouse has become a petri dish for viruses, and it is useless to keep them, it is better to use a fire to destroy them, although for Gotham City, which is currently full of free viruses in the air, this practice has no effect.
It's just that Kewen is very unhappy, very unhappy that he can't save these people, the only thing he can do is to prevent these innocent people from becoming the source of this virus crisis. After rescuing Batman from Arkham Asylum, the explosions in Arkham Asylum caused flames to rage in Arkham Asylum, destroying all viruses in Arkham Asylum through the heat.
And in the fire, the clown who was knocked away by Kewen's punch just now also looked at Kewen who left with Batman in the fire in the form of an alienated single Joker knight. Without the anger of being knocked away by Kewen's blow just now, he ignored it, just watched Kewen take Batman away, and said there.
"Hee-hee-hee-hee, Batboy, let's take our time, Uncle Joker's game has just begun~"
With such an eerie laugh, the clown also disappeared into the flames, leaving only the Arkham asylum in a sea of fire, and the news station helicopter that arrived from afar. The situation of Arkham Asylum was transmitted to every corner of Gotham as soon as possible, and even Dick and the others, who were having a family meeting in the bat cave under Wayne Manor, received the news.
Looking at the fire in Arkham Asylum displayed in front of the Brother's Eye computer, Dick and the others were a little unacceptable for a while, it was only an hour before and after, why did Arkham Asylum change its appearance. What's more, because of the broken bridge, the fire alarm in Gotham can only watch dryly, and the helicopter can only make real-time broadcasts, and cannot make any effective rescue measures against it.
"Father! Raven, let's go! ”
After seeing the fire in Arkham Asylum, Damian immediately pulled his bound wife, Raven Raven, because here, she is the only one who has the ability to move in space and can use magic to control the fire for the first time. But before Damian could pull Raven out of the bat cave with his magic, a familiar batrang slashed through the darkness and was nailed in front of everyone in the bat family.
Along the direction in which the batrang flew, they also saw Batman who was held horizontally by Ke Wen and passed unconscious, and at the same time, they also saw that Ke Wen's bat armor with a bit of medieval grid was not much different from Batman's. In front of these old acquaintances, Kewen also slowly lowered the unconscious Batman to the ground and slowly retreated.
"He's still alive, he has the virus, I gave him emergency treatment, and the rest is your business."
With that, Kewen turned around and prepared to disappear into the darkness. At this time, Barbara Gordon, who was next to Jason, also suddenly reacted and asked Kewen directly.
"What about Director James Gordon!"
After a pause, Ke Wen also replied: "I'm sorry." "Then I disappeared into the darkness and completely disappeared into the bat cave.
On the other side, Elliott's private estate, the new god of the Apocalypse in charge of Gotham City, De Sad, looked at the burning Arkham Asylum on TV, and even he, the new god of the Apocalypse, did not figure out what was going on between Elliot and the Joker. In his opinion, he gave Elliot and the Joker enough strength to rival Batman, and all Elliot had to do was to take advantage of Batman's lack of knowledge of Elliot's true identity to launch a surprise attack on him.
It is enough to capture Batman alive, then in front of Batman, kill everyone he cares about and burn the city he guards. This kind of misery is enough to make Batman collapse, there is no need to make some bells and whistles like now, which is contrary to their simple, rough, direct and effective Apocalypse Star operation purpose.
"I guess you're upset that I haven't made a move yet, right?"
"yes, what's the point."
As for Elliott guessing what was on his mind, Disard was shocked and asked curiously.
"You've never known Gotham, have you?"
"Then you can tell me what kind of secrets this city has."
"There's no secret, but we all love the city, and I know Batman, I know everything about him, so I know it. It's useless to catch him and use your method in front of him. That would only make him more determined to be Batman, and he would never compromise with us, because in his opinion, it was because we were scared that he rushed to Wayne Manor, to arrest him, to kill his family. ”
"Interesting, I thought you didn't know Bruce Wayne was Batman."
Dissad also teased in a weird way, after all, even he, an alien, knows that billionaire Bruce Wayne is Batman, and you locals are like fools who make trouble outside every day to provoke Batman's attention, and replace them with Apocalypse Star, and directly kill people's homes.
"Yes, we all know that Bruce Wayne is Batman, however, we only want to find Batman, not Bruce Wayne, and there is a difference between the two. So don't speculate on my actions with your alien minds, this is my city, my stage, and in this city, if you want to destroy Batman, you have to destroy his spiritual pillars, everything he believes in, what he stands for, I think, you know what to do, Bane. ”
Behind Elliott, a dull breathing sound, Bane, who had been chased by Batman and Dick before, the mercenary who had not achieved Batman's skewered achievement, knelt down on one knee behind Elliott at this time, and after hearing Elliott's call, stood up and disappeared into the darkness.
