The lights of the trucks illuminate the dark streets, cutting through a standard arc at the corner, and the light of the pole comes on the moment the gauzy light lightly scratches the name engraved on the factory gate, "ACE Chemical Plant".

Rapid raindrops continued to pound on the top of the car, and in the corner of the closed car of the truck, two figures with their arms tied behind their backs curled up, and the light from the crack in the door caused the vehicle to jolt and turn round and round on their faces.

"What the hell did you give him?" The goddess of poison ivy looked at Peter next to her with a complicated expression, and adjusted the posture of her tied arms again, so that the blood could flow smoothly.

"You can understand it as a living medicine." Peter kept staring at the crack in the door that showed light, and the illuminated eyelashes were like a sharp sword, "It will initially lurk in the human body, completely undetected, and then gradually affect your sanity with its own qualities." ”

"So is it a living creature or a drug?"

"It's a living thing." Peter looked at the poison ivy woman and said, "It is an intelligent creature called a symbiote, sane, communicative, and its main mode of survival is parasitism. ”

Poison Ivy shuddered, and Peter continued, "The most important feature of this life is that it is able to perfectly inherit the personality traits of the previous host and silently influence the next one. ”

"Red Bee has been in my body for a long time, so even if the other party is a heinous villain, he only needs to wait for a while, and his conscience will definitely find out."

"Do you still have a conscience?!" Poison Ivy said bitterly: "You just destroyed Gotham dozens of minutes ago, the scarecrow is too conservative compared to you, and the clown is not as good as you!" ”

Peter blinked, the streamer flashed across his eyelashes, he shifted his body slightly, and then said, "Shhhh ”

The truck slowly pulled into the underground parking lot of the ACE chemical plant, turned in a tunnel full of warning signs, and waited until the red light at the garage door came to a slow stop.

The driver got out of the car and didn't move for a long time, and after a while the sound of the door opening came again, and it was getting closer and closer to a sound of anger.

“…… They all fell in an instant, they were crazy, I don't know what's going on, it must be that damn Stag who did it! Luckily, I gave them masks early to prevent them from being attacked by fear gas. ”

"But it doesn't make sense at all, he can't open the door to the laboratory alone and complete the plan, what the hell did he use to make the whole city fall?!"

"Are you scared?" The deep voice rang out again.

"Of course I didn't." The other man obviously raised his voice, he said, "But this is not in my plan at all, I gave Batman a twenty-four hour buffer time just to delay, this is just a pretense." ”

"I need time to wait for the final completion of the Cloudburst Device, and I need time to defeat the people who matter most to Batman one by one, this is his punishment!"

"And now that Gotham is going to be destroyed, Batman must be going crazy, and if all the people he cares about are dead, he won't let us live!"

"You sound like a coward who is afraid of death."

"You...... Well, clever Arkham Knight, tell me where you got Batman's buddy from, and how did you get into the Batcave? ”

"I didn't go in, they ran out on their own."

"Hmph, they're just as stupid." The person on the other side sighed and said.

"If everyone else in Gotham City is in a coma, and life and death are uncertain, Batman won't be distracted by anything, he'll hunt us with all his might, and we'll have to find the cards to save our lives."

"Open the door, they're our last chance."

With the click of a lock, the door of the wagon compartment opened, and Peter narrowed his eyes to adjust to the sudden light, and after the glare had cleared, he saw a man wearing a burlap hood.

"Scarecrow......" Poison Ivy called out his name and said in a cold tone, "It's been a long time." ”

"Hahaha, Poison Ivy, why are you here again? How could Batman, your good friend, tolerate you falling into my hands again? The scarecrow's tone was always cold, and he exuded a withered smell like real straw.

The two were dragged out of the carriage by the scarecrow's men and thrown to the ground, and the scarecrow walked up to Peter, holding Peter's face up with his dry hands.

"Behold, another fresh flower, and really, doesn't that broad guy really have any special hobby? The boys he picks are all spicy, and throwing them at the penguin man will make his strip bar a lot of money. ”

At this time, Peter has already shaken off his youthful youth and has begun to truly mature, both in appearance and body shape, he has begun to have the charm of a mature man.

And he also has a special temperament, the rationality of a scholar overlaps with the wildness of a beast, and when he raises his eyes and looks at someone intently, there is a mysterious coldness that is difficult to fathom.

With a flick of the scarecrow's hand, Peter's head tilted away, leaving a shallow trail of blood on the corner of his jaw.

The corners of Poison Ivy's mouth twitched, and she said, "I didn't expect you to have this hobby, and you didn't lie to students when you were in college, right?" Are you going to let me watch you flirt all night here? ”

Although he was wearing a mask, he could clearly feel the scarecrow's expression darkened, and he said calmly, "You should have spoken more, because soon you will never be able to speak." ”

"No threat at all." The Poison Ivy Woman tilted her head to the side.

The Scarecrow turned to look at the man next to him, known as Arkham Knight, and said, "Did you inform Batman?" ”

"Of course, now that he should have gotten the news, have you and your men laid out the clues?"

"I'm faster than you." The Scarecrow turned to look at the jars of solution placed next to the wall and said, "Batman will soon be here chasing the rut prints, and then find that he has been hit again, and there is nothing here but an explosion." ”

"As much as I'd love to see his disappointed expression, we'll have to leave with the hostages in order to keep stalling."

"Of course." Knight Arkham nodded, and then added, "But I don't think you mind if I leave that old man, maybe he'll be angry and call you." ”

The scarecrow sneered and said, "Whatever you want, let's go." ”

With that, he and his men carried Poison Ivy and Peter to another car, while Arkham Knight stayed where he was, then walked to the wall, dipped his finger in some unknown solution that fluoresces, and wrote a line on the wall.

"I trusted you so much."

When the last stroke fell, the Arkham Knight did not take his hand away, and scene after scene flashed before his eyes.

Suddenly, he heard a voice asking.

"Then why don't you tell him personally?"

"No kidding, he's Batman." Knight Arkham heard himself reply.

He shook his head vigorously, glanced back at the empty underground parking lot, pressed his mask to make sure the filter against the fear gas hadn't failed, and turned to leave.

A dark shadow departed, a shadow descended, the water splashed around the corner with the sharp brakes, and the sound of heavy footsteps echoed in the empty underground parking lot.

There was nothing here, and Batman turned his head, only to see the lines that glowed in the darkness.

"I trusted you so much."

Batman walked over to the line and lightly touched the liquid with his fingers, which touched a bit of fluorescent paint, and what he didn't notice was that the little bit of red in the paint was gradually turning into fluorescent green, gradually sinking under his gloves and disappearing into his body.

In the next second, the fire of the huge explosion became the last light in the rainy night.

As the military SUV sped down the street, Peter and Poison Ivy, tied to the back seat, looked at each other, and Peter winked at her a few times and gently touched Poison Ivy's arm with his elbow.

The Poison Ivy Girl turned her head to look at him, and found that Peter was gesturing out the window, and the Poison Ivy Girl raised her eyebrows, Peter pursed her lips helplessly, and stretched out her hand to point out the window.

Wait, reach out?

"Uh!!"

The driver was strangled by Peter's neck, and the tiny vines instantly unlocked the door, and with a bang, the door was kicked open, and the poison ivy woman felt like she was almost grabbed by the arm and thrown out.

Peter then snatched the door, literally, using it as a shield and moving forward to block the bullets fired by the scarecrow's convoy behind him.

The two of them rushed into the building in front of them, leaving only a series of brakes and scarecrows scolding.

Because the power maintenance system was not working, the two could only rush up the stairs all the way, and ran to the more than a dozen floors in one breath before stopping in the stairwell to take a breath.

"Good boy, Batman really met a ghost when he asked you to be his assistant." The Poison Ivy Woman gasped and sighed, "You have offended both good and evil in just one hour, what should we do now?" ”

Peter was about to answer, but he heard Schiller's voice in his ear: "Peter, how are you?" What are you doing now? ”

"On the run, doctor."

"Good, remember to run faster."

Poison ivy looked at Peter, who was stunned, with an inquiring gaze, and Peter exhaled after coming back to his senses and said, "If I say that the anesthesia of the whole city with plant toxins is actually only the first step in the plan, will you fight with me?" ”

"I'm really, really trying to beat you up right now." The Poison Ivy Woman put her hands on her knees and continued to gasp and said, "Or you can put down this damn shield and try." ”

Peter immediately raised his shield in front of him and said, "I'm not that stupid, and you can't beat me, but I've been serious about using a shield as a weapon." ”

"Can you get down to business?"

"The second step is to drug Batman."

Poison ivy coughed violently.

"And it's been successful."

Poison ivy nearly choked herself to death.

"This magical race called the symbiote can produce offspring by splitting itself." Peter sat down on the ledge behind him and rested, saying, "It only takes a few factors to produce a whole new offspring, and my research has found that the direct offspring of symbiotes tend to be very hostile to their parents, or rather appetite. ”

"It can also be understood that they want to return to their original body and become one with their parents again, and the more power they expend, the stronger this desire becomes, and this strong desire that humans cannot understand will subtly affect the host's mind and make them start blindly hunting."

"So what?"

"I put the symbiote into Arkham Knight's body, and let the symbiote leave a splitting factor in the underground garage, and if nothing else, the symbiosis of the offspring is already in Batman's body."

"Huh?"

"So for the next few days, Batman will follow the symbiote instinct to find Arkham Knight, and they should have a few rounds before we can catch our breath for a while."
