Chapter 290: The Game Begins
In the darkness, Bruce felt like he was falling, and the intense feeling of weightlessness and dizziness surrounding him made him feel very uncomfortable.
His limbs and body were completely unresponsive, until he finally fell to the ground when the long darkness and fall made him start to get dizzy.
In an instant, Bruce came to his senses.
Since the last incident, Bruce had set a siren in his consciousness, and he would wake up as soon as he fell asleep, or if someone tried to interfere with his dream, and now, Bruce immediately realized that he had entered a dream.
He looked down to see the black and gold floor beneath his feet, and then he looked up - the endless floors above him.
The dull sound of his heels on the floor ringed in his ears, and Bruce turned to see Schiller.
The professor was dressed like usual, wearing a long trench coat and tie, except that his head was a spinning globe.
"Professor......" Bruce narrowed his eyes, thinking of what Schiller had said to him during the day's separation.
"'Have a good dream' means you're going to come to me in your dreams?"
"I'm sorry, Bruce, that I entered your dream without your consent and dragged you here."
"But I still have to say it...... Welcome to my temple of mind. β
Remember the URL
Schiller stretched out his arms and showed Bruce all this, and Bruce looked at him and said, "This is the tower that last came down in the depths of my consciousness?" β
"Yes, they've all come in and visited, only you haven't, but obviously, your visit will be a little different from theirs......"
"What?" Bruce asked.
"Others buy round-trip tickets, and you only have a one-way ticket to get here, and if you want to go back, you have to climb to the top or you're stuck here forever......"
"Really?"
Bruce looked up, snapped his fingers, and in an instant, he sat up from the bed.
Since the last serial dream, Bruce has set up a series of very complex mechanisms in his brain to achieve the effect of waking up as soon as he is forced to dream.
At this moment, he heard a knock on the bedroom door, and Schiller's voice sounded outside the door: "You don't have to try to use the mechanism in your head, it's a complete waste of your energy, because I didn't simply hypnotize you, but borrowed the Tao from the Sandman and pulled you directly into the dream, you can't wake up......"
Bruce closes his eyes, and in an instant, the scene collapses and he sits up from the bed again.
Schiller had opened the bedroom door and stood in the doorway watching him, Bruce fell again, then sat up again, and Schiller was still there.
Bruce frowned and repeated the process of getting up, as if he were doing sit-ups, but no matter how many times, Schiller stood in the doorway and watched him.
After an unknown number of times, Schiller knocked on the door frame with his hand and made a sound that attracted Bruce, and he said, "If you don't understand this, then I'll tell you in a different way - it's part of the psychology homework......"
But Bruce ignored him completely, still trying to wake up, even though the repeated mental stimulation had left him pale and covered in cold sweat.
Batman's personality dictates that he can't trust anyone, and it's impossible for anyone to snoop and manipulate his dreams at will.
Schiller said to him, "Stop. β
Bruce paused for a moment and turned his head to look at Schiller, who saw the professor's face gradually turn cold.
Schiller looked him in the eye and said, "Bruce, why don't you understand why you haven't ......understood my class for so long?"
Bruce looked him in the eye and said nothing, and then he heard Schiller's tone come down:
ββ¦β¦ In my class, no one can fail to turn in their homework. β
As the words fell, his figure vanished, and in an instant, another terrifying figure appeared in front of Bruce's door - he was wearing a red and green striped sweater, one of his hands was a sharp iron claw, his skin was like a red muscle that had fallen off after being burned, and his mouth was squealing with a terrifying squeal.
Bruce didn't even see his movements before the sharp blades of his fingers were thrust into his chest, and he woke up from his dream again in a sharp pain that was as sharp as the real thing.
And this time, outside his bedroom door, it was a man in black wearing a white mask and holding a dagger, and more importantly, he also brought his own appearance music, and when the kind of "ooh" music that seemed to be beating faster, Bruce rolled under the bed, dodging the glittering dagger, and then elbowed the tall killer's knee from the side, but in the end he couldn't dodge the dagger that flashed with cold light.
When Bruce sat up from the bed again, he instantly rolled over and got out of bed, and this time, it was a man wearing a hockey mask and armed with a machete outside the door.
This time, Bruce managed to inflict damage on him by plunging a sharp candelabra into the man's chest, but alas, he only took two steps back and swung his machete again, slashing at Bruce.
When he woke up again, he was confronted by a terrifying murderer with human skin sewn on his face and a chainsaw......
This time, instead of going toe-to-toe with him, Bruce jumped out of the window and into the rainy night of Gotham after throwing a handful of glass shards at him.
When he landed, he looked up, and a bolt of lightning streaked across the night sky, and in a brief moment of light, he saw the great tower standing in the center of the city, like a silent black giant.
And at this time, he heard Schiller's voice ringing in his ears:
"Bruce, originally, I just wanted you to climb the stairs in my mind hall, which is the best choice for a fledgling vigilante to exercise his willpower and thinking skills."
"You can climb just one floor in one night, it's just an easy homework assignment, and you have at least two years to complete a long-term project......"
"But now, Bruce, you're trying to avoid doing my homework, so I'll have to resort to a less humane way......"
"I'm going to let every bad kid who doesn't do their homework know what the consequences are...... The game is on, Bruce. β
In the end, Schiller's tone was colder than the rainy night in Gotham, and at the same time, Bruce saw another lightning bolt in the dark alley at the entrance of Wayne Manorβ
The man in the white mask and dagger in hand walked briskly towards him, the monster in the striped sweater with iron claws in one hand lying on the wall and smiling at him, the roar of the chainsaw getting louder and louder, and when the machete struck, Bruce barely saw his movements clearly, and the darkness hit again.
And this time, instead of going back to bed, Bruce returned to the door of Wayne Manor, where four terrible murderers were still waiting for him.
Bruce was unarmed and had nothing around him to exploit, and he had to get past them with his bare hands.
And Bruce saw that behind the alley, in the deeper darkness of Gotham, there were countless terrifying eyes staring at him.
The rain in Gotham grew heavier and heavier, following the fine rain line, through the thick clouds, and overhead was a ceiling of stars glued to it.
After crossing the ceiling, there was the seat of the theater, and Evans, who was leaning back in his chair, shivered, turned around, drew a cross on his chest, and said to Schiller, "Professor, I swear I never missed an assignment!" I wrote every homework well! I swear ......"
Cobot swallowed his saliva as well, and was considering whether to cross Gotham University off his list of college candidates, when Victor touched his sideburns, turned to Schiller, and said, "It's okay, it's a dream, right?" β
"These killers you made up are quite interesting, not only do they have their own characteristics, but they also seem to have their own set of behavioral logic......"
ββ¦β¦ Wait, that's fiction, right? β
